Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 437 Chapters 446-448 Buy hens and sell eggs

Knowing that the big boss of Russia is going to visit the Ice City Machinery Company's automobile factory, if he is satisfied with the car, he is likely to sign a huge order, not only the employees of the automobile factory, including Li Mingde, but even Zhang Ruiqiang are excited.

Zhang Ruiqiang was invited by Li Mingde to accept the Russian boss on behalf of the city, which is kind of the city's support for the mechanical company's automotive project.

By the time Feng Yu arrived at the automobile factory, Kirilenko's men had already been taken over. Several streets on the doorstep of the automobile factory were spotlessly cleaned and some banners were hung on both sides of the street, with welcome words written in Russian.

Kirilenko was very excited to see these banners. The Huaxians are so enthusiastic. Must have been arranged by Feng? Next time Von goes to Moscow, I welcome him so much that he can't think that we Russians are not enthusiastic enough.

In fact, these banners were arranged by Li Mingde. When I was a mechanical factory, I visited and ordered from big businessmen, and that's what they did. Of course, at the time, the so-called big businessman, an order, was about a million dollars worth of agricultural machinery. Ten million won't be treated like this!

“Zhang Shi ~ elder, Li, this is the big boss of Russia, Mr. Kirilenko. Brother Ki, this is our Ice City ~ Mr. Chang Ruiqiang, and this is Li Mingde, general manager of our machinery company.” Feng Yu introduced the parties.

Zhang Ruiqiang shook Kirilenko's hand with enthusiasm and greeted him in Russian. Kirilenko and Zhang Ruiqiang got loose after a fight. If it weren't for Feng Yu's introduction, he wouldn't even be able to get to know Zhang Ruiqiang. In Russia, the area where he had dinner (equivalent to the province of Huaxia) had more than one hand, let alone the city ~ long!

Li Mingde, however, shook his hand a few times. After all, he had seen it twice, barely a familiar person. Lee Ming De is surprised, can't this old man tell the difference between big and small king, Mayor ~ why are you shaking my hand so enthusiastically?

Kirilenko actually came to the mechanical company, Li Mingde has also met, but in his eyes, the old man looks the same, he also said, why is the old man called Kirilenko? Is that your first or last name?

Just inside the factory, Kirilenko's eyes were drawn to it. Is that Volga's car?

I told you, Feng is exaggerating. What makes a good car, it's just like our Volga? Thinking about it, Kirilenko looked back at Feng Yu and looked slightly more proud.

Li Mingde explained at this time: "This is a Volga car that we built according to the original technology, which we will use to compare later. ”

After hearing the translation explanation, Kirilenko looked suspiciously at Li Mingde. What do you mean, Volga's car, you compared it? So you guys really made a better car than Volga?

So, he admitted to himself that Russia, including the former Soviet Union, had no good cars, and that many of them were very important, and they were travelling in British cars. It's a lot stronger than Volga. Besides, it's old technology. Now Volga's car is stronger than the one in front of you.

And you assemble Volga, probably worse than our old Volga, and automotive technology is not that easy to eat.

“Manager Lee, can I give this car a try? ”

“Of course, this was personally checked by our engineer Novich from St. Petersburg, who assured us that the quality of the car, in the Russian Volga, was also the best. ”

Li Mingde pointed at a big beard over there, the mechanical engineer that the mechanical company had dug from the former Soviet Union.

Kirilenko frowned, how could you forget this? Feng has dug up a lot of mechanical talent from the former Soviet Union. So, compared to Volga, the quality is fine?

But he still lets the car engineer bring it up and check it out. Feng Yu invited him to do business. If the product quality is not good, what if he loses money buying it back? Feng doesn't know about the car situation in Russia, so what if it's wrong?

The engineer opened the front cover and looked, then grabbed the flashlight, climbed under the chassis, and then got in. Inside and out, up and down very carefully.

During this time, Li Mingde briefed Kirilenko on other aspects of the plant. Like the size of the land, the number of workers, the number of specialist engineers, the amount of money invested, the amount of annual production, etc. His best introduction to the history and honor of the factory doesn't work at all, because none of this!

When Li Mingde took a colored leaflet and introduced Songjiang's design concept to Kirilenko, Kirilenko's automotive engineer finally finished the test drive.

“The car performs well, is definitely a new car, and it does employ our Volga technology, which is equivalent to what we did 10 years ago, and slightly worse than what we have today. ”

Kirilenko nodded satisfactorily and then looked back at Feng Yu with pride. You see, this was 10 years ago, and it's still worse than our Volga performance right now. What can you compare it to?

Of course Feng Yu knows that, but Volga's technological upgrading speed is also one of the slowest automotive companies, not even as good as Huaxia. Their Volga performance today is not much better than it was a decade ago.

Let them see the performance of the Songjiang car in a moment and believe Kirilenko has nothing to say.

Kirilenko also found that the shape and design of the Songjiang car was really beautiful. All three models give him a sense of brightness.

National Olympics is big and suitable for business and home use; off-road wild hegemony gives people a hard feeling; and red stars look like box cars, but have no clumsiness at all.

Overall, he loves the appearance of all three models, but what good is the appearance? Specific performance is important. The car is bought and driven, not viewed. He still thinks he's prettier than the sports cars in his own garage.

But sports cars, not everyone can afford them, tens of thousands of dollars of these cars are the mainstream of the automotive market and the mainstream consumer in the Russian market.

Kirilenko handed the brochure to the engineer to give him some professional advice.

At first glance, the engineer was attracted to the shape of the car. Is this an SUV? It looks very wide, the interior space must be very large, and the angle of the front body design should reduce the wind resistance. The entire body is actually streamlined and very pretty.

Of course, this Songjiang - off-road, but according to the design philosophy proposed by Feng Yu in the appearance of the previous Audi Q7, after several modifications by Mike Liu, it is different from the Q7, but it is also much better than any Jeep or Cherokee.

Kirilenko waited half a day and found that the engineer had not given his opinion. Why didn't you say a word after half a day?

He coughed and the engineer reacted, just now he was obsessed!

……

The engineer hurriedly flipped back and looked at the various types of performance parameters, which made his mouth shut.

How is that possible?

Huaxia's car, it's already got this kind of technology? It's not simply leading Russia, it's at least 10 years ahead of Europe and America in terms of performance!

Li Mingde was very proud to see the expression of surprise from Russian engineers. He was also so surprised when he knew that automobiles manufactured by the automotive factory of mechanical companies actually had such performance.

He thought that these technologies, combined with those of Feng Yu, could compare to Santa Nabi, but he didn't think that combining the engine manufacturing, turbine increase, shock absorption and other technologies of the motor factory had actually reached the world's advanced level in some respects!

Although the overall strength is not comparable to that of Europe and the US and the island countries, Huaxia is enough to guarantee a leading position!

When he looked at manufacturing costs, he was even more surprised. The cost was similar to that of a domestic joint venture, but the performance was much better.

In this way, Li Mingde believed what Feng Yu had said, we will build the best car in Huaxia, the future goal is to create the best car in the world!

He didn't expect the goal of creating the best car in Huaxia to be achieved so easily. And the cost of building their factory is much lower than FAW or steaming, and the second-hand production lines they bought back from the former Soviet Union, compared to the production lines they bought back from FAW, are simply cabbage prices.

Although the production line is a little old, they bought it from FAW, and it's not a new production line, it actually functions the same way. While former Soviet equipment has major noise and other drawbacks, it also has the advantage of not being easily damaged.

At this time, Li Mingde began to admire Feng Yu's vision.

When Feng Yu said that in three years, the annual sales volume of Songjiang brand cars exceeded 50,000 units, he now believes it.

Although sales don't look good now, it hasn't been widely advertised yet. After launching advertising in Central Taiwan next year, it will certainly boost sales. Besides, Taihua Trading's sales capabilities are at the forefront of the nation.

And from the fact that Central Taiwan purchased Songjiang car, it seems that this Songjiang car can still be recognized by the market!

“Mr. Kirilenko, we can definitely stand the test of these performance parameters. You can try these models, they're in the factory now, and they're mass produced. Our factory, which produces three models of the National Olympic Series, and the other two models of the series, are manufactured by Jinling's factory. If you have time, you can also visit there.” Li Mingde raised his head and showed a strong sense of pride on his face.

Kirilenko looked at the eye engineer and the engineer whispered to him: "Sir, many of these performance parameters are at the forefront of the world. If these parameters are true, then the performance of these cars will have to be ahead of Volga in our country! ”

What, leading the way?!

“Are you sure? ”

“I have to try the car before I can be sure.” The engineer answered rigorously.

Kirilenko nodded, Li Mingde waved, and someone took the Russian engineer to the test drive.

Feng Yu looked at Kirilenko with a smile: “Brother Ki, how about the exterior and interior of these cars, do you like them? Do you think these cars, in your country, would be popular? ”

“How's the car selling in your country?” Kirilenko asked back.

Feng Yu said softly: “A few days ago, Central Taiwan, the largest propaganda media in our country, they purchased a large number of our cars, which the mayor of Zhang can testify for me. ”

Zhang Ruiqiang glanced at Feng Yu, and your son broke the seal again. True, Central Place placed an order, but only Central Place placed an order. Have you ever sold a car besides Central Taiwan?

But in the face of the Russian boss, of course, he still helps his own people.

“Yes, Central Taiwan is the tongue of our country, and in our country it has a pivotal place. The first two days we did purchase a bunch of Songjiang cars, originally intended for Audi and Santana in Germany, and later found our Songjiang cars to be better performing and more affordable, which is why we ordered them. ”

Li Mingde added next to him: "And the cars ordered by Central Taiwan, we've shipped them all, and our capacity is absolutely nothing to worry about. ”

But a companion next to Kirilenko suddenly asked: "Please, Zhang Shi ~ Mayor, did you Ice City Government ~ Government purchase a Songjiang brand car? ”

Zhang Ruiqiang stunned. Why did he suddenly ask me? His face suddenly changed and he understood what they meant. If you say this Songjiang car is so good, then why don't you buy it yourself?

“We are talking about a procurement contract, which has not yet been finalized due to the large volume of our procurement and the need for consistency with the province.” Zhang Ruiqiang thought about it and replied.

Kirilenko's eyebrows wrinkled: “Zhang Shi ~ Chang, do you also need provincial consent to the car purchase? When you got here, I didn't see your car. Can you tell me what kind of car you're in? ”

Zhang Ruiqiang looked at Feng Yu and Feng Yu shrugged his shoulders. How can I answer that? Say it yourself.

“I was in an old car from a few years ago, the Audi 100, which is currently ready to be replaced. I think the Songjiang National Olympic Series is good, serious and suitable for official travel.” Zhang Ruiqiang chewed his teeth and said.

He suddenly had some regrets. After meeting Kirilenko, he should go back to the city office. After signing this contract, he could entertain the city on behalf of the city.

Now that he's here, if he says he doesn't intend to purchase Songjiang brand car, it seems like he's going to mix up the export opportunities that Machinery Company has so hard to get this time!

Wait, Lee Ming De reported to the city that the boss of Russia was going to visit the mechanical company and negotiate the purchase, didn't he? Otherwise, what would Lee Ming De say about inviting him to support the mechanical company's platform?

Zhang Ruiqiang stared at Feng Yu and felt like he had been reckoned with by Feng Yu again!

Feng Yu had an innocent look on his face, and he didn't expect that Kirilenko's people would ask this question. Is this an inadvertent attempt to plunge Willow into the shade?

Now, can't Zhang Ruiqiang stop the city from purchasing Songjiang cars? Li Mingde's PR several times was blocked by Zhang Ruiqiang. He led by example, he only took the previous city ~ Chang's replacement Audi 100. Who dares buy a better car next?

As long as the Municipality ~ the government changes the car, then the district counties and bureaux below have reason to change the car. Iceland's finances have been good for two years.

Kirilenko looked at Zhang Ruiqiang: “How many Songjiang cars is Iceland going to buy, which is the main model? ”

Zhang Ruiqiang scolded you. What are you staring at me for? Looks like he can't afford to buy a few random cars. Is it true the city is going to buy a big car this time?

……

“This, we're still considering the model, but the total quantity won't be less than a hundred!” Zhang Ruiqiang bit his teeth and said.

He was afraid to say too little, which worried the old man. As for how much you end up buying, let's talk about it later.

Kirilenko also wanted to ask, Zhang Ruiqiang glanced at Li Mingde, and Li Mingde hastily changed the subject.

“Mr. Kirilenko, if these cars, the performance parameters, are all the same as it says here, would you be interested in purchasing a batch? ”

“Interests do exist, but there are many conditions to consider, such as… prices.” Kirilenko grinned.

Feng Yu glanced at Li Mingde, and Li Mingde stopped talking. Leave the price to Feng Yu. Feng Yu knows more about the situation on the Russian side than they do.

“Brother Ki, you see, this lowest configuration in the country has airbags, and the cost is over 20,000 dollars, and this medium configuration, the cost is nearly 40,000 dollars, and that kind of high-end configuration, the cost is over 60,000 dollars. These off-road vehicles cost almost $40,000 in diesel and petrol. And finally, this red star costs more than $60,000. How much do you want, I'll give you a discount. ”

Kirilenko looks at Feng Yu. Is this car so expensive? What else would Feng Yu make if he shipped it to Moscow?

“Von, your car, isn't the price a little higher? If I sell your car, I won't make much money?” Kirilenko was somewhat unhappy. I thought you said you promised me money. You promised me money.

Feng Yu understands that the offer is a bit high. He doesn't have a cost here, it's a domestic retail price.

“Ki, look, we're selling this to you Russians. We're paying taxes after this, right? It's all in there. ”

In fact, Huaxia today, automobile exports, tax rates are extremely low. Not just cars, but other products. The State encourages exports in order to generate foreign exchange. Sometimes by any means, how far? What is lacking domestically is also exported for sale and then imported, which is called export resale for domestic sale, thus obtaining foreign exchange.

“I also pay taxes on imports, and taxes are not low. These are not small goods.” Kirilenko squeezed his eyes at Feng Yu.

Kirilenko imports Huaxia food and small department stores and never pays taxes. Anyway, in the skins, nobody can see. Sergeant, in their country, nobody checks. After Moscow, in his father's place, nobody cared.

But this car is different. It can't be hidden. It would also have a negative impact on his father if the royal shipment had passed without paying taxes.

Import duties on industrial products are still relatively high in Russia.

“So, Brother Ki, we're not fully operational right now, so the cost is a little high. I talked to the leader to see if I could get some policies, lower some tax rates, and maybe a thousand bucks a car. This price, I'm sure you're profitable. ”

Shit, politicians on the Russian side, riding in British cars is a lot more expensive than this, and Kirilenko has at least a few thousand dollars in profit per car as long as it's properly operated. If you could sell a thousand cars, you'd have millions of dollars in profits, wouldn't you say? Much more than Brother Ki makes from importing Huaxia's department stores every month.

Of course, all this presupposes that Kirilenko can really sell so many cars.

After hearing Feng Yu say this, Zhang Ruiqiang glanced at Feng Yu and said in cooperation: “Well, this can be studied. ”

Of course, just to be clear, he won't say yes to tax exemptions. Feng Yu makes so much money, pays the state, pays some taxes to Iceland. Why?

This way Kirilenko is still considering it, and the Russian engineer is back. A face of excitement nodded forcefully at Kirilenko.

“Sir, these performance parameters are fine. Their car, their engine technology, is much better than Volga's. There are safety factors such as shock absorption and collision resistance, which are also much better than Volga. Overall, very good. ”

The engineer's heart actually wanted to say it was very good, but of course he wouldn't say it in front of the Chinese.

“Brother Ki, what can you hesitate to do? This performance is much stronger than your Vol, not much worse than a British car, but much cheaper. It's not just personal. Think about government procurement?” Feng Yu picked his eyebrows.

Kirilenko suddenly realized, how could he not have thought of that for him? It would undoubtedly be a lot easier to sell to the local government. And you can place an order on Feng Yu's side every time you sell it, even he can make a no-brainer deal!

“Feng, give me a final quote when you and the city know.” Kirilenko thought about it.

“Of course not. The price is sure to make you a lot of money.” Feng Yu Daxi, it seems that Kirilenko is moving. With enough profit, it's easy to impress him.

Anyway, this deal is a win-win. Feng Yu believes that Kirilenko can definitely sell the cars at high prices due to the level of corruption in Russia. Even his first quote just now, in fact, KiriLenko won't lose if he buys it, just a little less.

Now that Feng Yukan conceded, Kirilenko's profit must have increased considerably. Perhaps, Kirilenko's profit this time is still above that of the machinery company.

Zhang Ruiqiang looked at Feng Yu, didn't he think of selling the car to Russia? No wonder he promised more than 50,000 units in three years.

It may not take three years now.

Zhang Ruiqiang also wondered why the automotive industry had not reached such a point since Russia inherited most of the Soviet Union's industry. Even if industrial development in the former Soviet Union is off track, Russia should be an industrial power by now, right?

I actually promised to import a bunch of cars from a mechanical company!

This old man is the one who sold the used Soviet industrial equipment to Feng Yu, right? He should be aware that the production lines of the automotive branch of the mechanical company, the main equipment, were used equipment from the former Soviet Volga, which also promised to buy the mechanical company's car?

Is the machine company's car really as good as Feng Yu said?

Feng Yu bought second-hand equipment from the former Soviet Union, then manufactured the car and sold it to Russia. Does that count as buying hens and selling eggs to hen feeders?

Li Mingde greeted people immediately and arranged a “working meal” at noon in the cafeteria of the mechanical company.

Kirilenko's eyes lit up and two weird words came out of his mouth: "Burn ~ ~ eat? ”

Li Mingde looked at the translation in vain. The translation also looked at Kirilenko in vain. On both faces, there was an uppercase obsession. This sentence, the translator did not understand!

Feng Yu said helplessly: "He wants snacks. Talk to the cafeteria and prepare some specialty snacks. Oh, and prepare a case of our hottest old white dried ice cream! ”

Feng Yu's heart is roaring. Kirilenko, die! There are so many of us this afternoon, I can't kill you!
