Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 853
There was no progress in the negotiations. Takashima Corporation's main business is the production of ethylene and chemical fibers in petroleum refining, but it does not produce petroleum refining equipment.The two people sent by the mainland to negotiate with Qian Xiaobao actually wanted Takashima Corporation to purchase a complete set of refining and chemical equipment in Japan, and the mainland would repay it in materials year by year.

Simply put, due to the lack of foreign exchange, the mainland does not have the conditions to take out a large amount of foreign exchange at one time, and there is no bank in the world that is willing to provide loans for this equipment purchase.

"Doing this is equivalent to Takashima Co., Ltd. lending money to you to buy equipment, but this is an unsecured loan. It is impossible for the board of directors to agree to my doing so." Qian Xiaobao said.

"As far as we know, Mr. Takashima is very influential in Takashima Co., Ltd. You can decide this matter alone." Li Hong said.

"It seems that Ms. Li still lacks understanding of modern enterprise management. I am not the emperor of Takashima Corporation. The affairs of the enterprise must be collectively decided by all shareholders in the enterprise, and the risks are borne in proportion. Only by doing this can we avoid personal He made a major mistake by acting arbitrarily and arbitrarily." Qian Xiaobao replied.

In the traditional Chinese thinking, one person can be said to be the best, but according to the modern enterprise management implemented by Qian Xiaobao who has been outside for so many years, everything must be done through collective negotiation of corporate shareholders and risk sharing.

"Takashima Co., Ltd. purchases the equipment and hands it over to you, and you hand over the export materials to us every year to compensate us for the purchase of the equipment without collateral. This is a very risky thing for the shareholders of Takashima Co., Ltd." Qian Xiaobao said.

"Mr. Takashima, it's wrong for you to say that. It is impossible for such a big country to keep its promises. We must do what we say and do what we do! As a patriot, how can you distrust us?" Li Hong questioned.

"Personally, I absolutely believe in you, but the other shareholders of Takashima Co., Ltd. don't think like me. They are just worried that if you refuse to pay in the future, Takashima Co., Ltd. has no way to claim losses." Qian Xiaobao explained.

"But we represent the country, and we absolutely keep our promises," Li Hong said.

"Miss Li Hong, I have lived in China for many years and know the Chinese way of life. But the world is different now. If someone borrows a small sum of money from me, I will ask him to write a legally valid IOU. Many of them must have sufficient collateral and pay interest.” Qian Xiaobao said.

Li Hong looked at Qian Xiaobao and was speechless. The two of them couldn't meet each other like cars running on two roads. Li Hong couldn't fully understand what Qian Xiaobao said.

In her eyes, Qian Xiaobao is not a patriotic businessman but a profit-seeking capitalist.

"I want to report the situation here to my superior immediately." Li Hong said.

Sending Li Hong and the others away, Qian Xiaobao said to Hemoto Taro: "From now on, the money transferred to Kobayashi Kaoru's account will be reduced by half every month! They have lived so comfortably these years, do they think that money fell from the sky? ?”

He has been living in the hotel for the past few days and did not go home. Thinking of what happened that day, Qian Xiaobao was still angry. It is a shame that the whole family united to deal with him!
It can't be regarded as the whole family. Zhaodi is not at home. A few years ago, when Qian Xiaobao said that Zhaodi would inherit the family business in the future, Zhaodi hid away to study abroad.

Brother Zhao knew in his heart that if Qian Xiaobao really did this, the two women in the family would never agree.

Qian Xiaobao waited for more than ten days in HK, and Kawamoto Taro suddenly called him and said that the other party had informed him that another person would be sent to negotiate with Chairman Takashima.

Five days later a middle-aged woman arrived in HK to meet Qian Xiaobao.

The person who accompanied the woman introduced to Qian Xiaobao: "This is Ms. Gao Yuanying from the Ministry of Foreign Trade."

The woman smiled and extended her hand to Qian Xiaobao.

"Mr. Takashima, we met at Tianping Law Firm before." The woman said.

"Yes, Ms. Gao, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years." Qian Xiaobao said.

Back then, Zhang Fawu sent her to HK to act as a liaison with Qian Xiaobao.

"The situation here has been reflected above. The leaders think that Mr. Takashima's idea is reasonable. We can't use domestic thinking to deal with foreign trade issues." Gao Yuanying said.

"However, it is not realistic to use oil to pay for the purchase of equipment. Now the output of oil fields is not high, and the country is in urgent need of oil. It will take time to build tens of thousands of cubic meters of oil tanks at the wharf, and the construction of pump rooms and heating devices will be difficult. It will take time." Gao Yuanying continued.

"I heard that chemical fiber fabrics in Japan and the United States account for more than 40.00% of clothing production, but only 5.00% in China. All relying on cotton planting to meet the needs of hundreds of millions of people takes up a lot of land. The amount of chemical fertilizers used in China is also very low. Therefore, the grain output will not increase at all. The gap to be filled is too great. All of these require oil, various chemical equipment and technologies, and the help of friends like Mr. Takashima is needed!" Gao Yuanying looked at the money Xiaobao said.

"Of course I'm willing to help, but I can't use what you just said to convince the shareholders of Takashima Corporation that what they want is benefits." Qian Xiaobao said.

"We understand this, so the superior asked me to tell Mr. Takashima that Takashima Co., Ltd. will get the priority to purchase oil in a few years, except that we pay with coal and soybeans every year. At the same price, we are willing to give priority to supply to Takashima Corporation!" Gao Yuanying said.

"These contents should be included in the contract." Qian Xiaobao said.

"Of course!" Gao Yuanying replied.

Subsequent negotiations went smoothly, and the two parties signed the contract five days later.

Several companies in Japan must be very eager to get the contract for oil refining and chemical equipment. With the financial guarantee provided by Takashima Corporation, they can safely and boldly produce without worrying about the return of funds.

After these things were over, Gao Yuanying asked with a smile: "Is it true to hear that Mr. Gao Dao wants to send his son back to China to participate in the construction?"

"It's true! He is only 15 years old now, I want him to go back to study for two years and then work." Qian Xiaobao replied.

"15 years old? Is it too young? Where do you want him to go?" Gao Yuanying asked.

Letting the children of good friend Mr. Takashima return to China to study and work is also a good way to maintain friendship.In the future, Mr. Takashima's son is more likely to be a person who has a good impression of the country.

"As you know, I have two good friends in the mainland, and I want to entrust my son to them for discipline." Qian Xiaobao said.

Gao Yuanying remembered that a friend of Mr. Gao Dao who had returned from studying in France had disembarked in Singapore and returned to China through her.

"Okay, I will report this matter to the higher authorities, and there should be a result soon." Gao Yuanying said.
