Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1358 Thanks to Secretary Niu for saving his life
Zhang Guangmao was very cooperative when his attention was diverted. He pondered for a moment and then said: "Secretary Niu is a very cautious person. If he is not at all sure, he will definitely not accept your money, but if he wants to say that this matter will definitely be done." , That's nonsense, let's stop thinking about it, let's calm down and wait for the news."

Ding Hongqiang nodded nervously, and sat with Zhang Guangmao smoking a stuffy cigarette.

After about ten minutes, the waiter began to serve the dishes. Secretary Zhang just stayed in the cafeteria to avoid suspicion.

At this moment, when he saw the waiter started to serve the dishes, he couldn't sit still, so he sneaked over to check the situation.

Seeing that only Zhang Guangmao and Ding Hongqiang were sitting in the box, and Fang Dongping and Niu Xiaoqiang were missing, Secretary Zhang thought the matter had collapsed.His complexion changed, and he was about to say something when he glanced at Ding Hongqiang and found that Ding Hongqiang's complexion was not too ugly.

Secretary Zhang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Director, how is the situation?"

Ding Hongqiang beckoned: "Come in and sit down. You will know the result when Secretary Niu comes back."

Secretary Zhang was confused when he heard this, but he didn't dare to ask again, and sat obediently in the starting position.

After all the food and wine were served, Niu Xiaoqiang still didn't come back.Ding Hongqiang was a little impatient, stood up at the door and looked outside.

Secretary Zhang saw that the leader was like this, and he couldn't sit still, so he got up and stood at the door looking outside.

Zhang Guangmao had known for a long time that Niu Xiaoqiang was deliberately teasing his appetite, so he was not in a hurry.But he still has to do superficial work.

While Ding Hongqiang and Secretary Zhang were looking around, Zhang Guangmao lit a cigarette and started smoking. His brows were tightened, and he looked preoccupied.

After about 5 minutes, Niu Xiaoqiang finally appeared.

Ding Hongqiang rushed to greet him: "Secretary Niu, how is the situation?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly: "Finally fulfilling the mission."

Ding Hongqiang was completely relieved when he heard this, and said excitedly: "Thank you, thank you! Come, come, let's sit and chat while eating!"

Under the kind invitation of Ding Hongqiang, Niu Xiaoqiang sat in the first seat.Secretary Zhang helped to pour the wine with great insight, and Zhang Guangmao also said words of thanks.

The atmosphere at the scene seemed to be full of festiveness. After the wine was poured, Ding Hongqiang raised his glass immediately: "Thank you Secretary Niu for saving your life! I will do it first as a respect!"

Ding Hongqiang was also refreshing, and after speaking, he tilted his neck and drank the wine in the glass.

Zhang Guangmao and Secretary Zhang followed suit and toasted.Seeing this, Niu Xiaoqiang had no choice but to accompany him.

After drinking up the first round of wine, the four of them sat down.

Zhang Guangmao pretended to be curious and asked: "Secretary Niu, how did you persuade the boss of the Hunter Company to change his mind? Are Americans so talkative?"

Hearing this, Niu Xiaoqiang sighed: "Uncle Zhang didn't say it, I almost forgot, Uncle Ding, although I persuaded Mr. Charles to let it go, he has conditions."

Ding Hongqiang originally thought that all the problems had been solved, but when he heard Niu Xiaoqiang's words, his excited mood was suddenly poured with cold water, and he said anxiously: "Secretary Niu, after working on it for a long time, this matter still has its tail ah?"

Niu Xiaoqiang frowned slightly, looking a little displeased: "Director Ding, you have embezzled the hunter company's profit of 5000 million US dollars. Can such a large amount be settled with a few words? If it were you, would you Don't blame the past? It's because of the friendship with me that people will change their attitude. I spent so much effort to speak good words for you, is it still my fault in the end?"

Zhang Guangmao nodded at the side: "This is reasonable. No matter who it is, it is impossible to get rid of such a large amount all at once. Xiaoqiang, please tell your uncle in detail, what kind of conditions did Mr. Charles offer?"

Ding Hongqiang knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and immediately made amends: "Xiaoqiang, don't take it to heart. Uncle was just a little worried that the conditions proposed by Mr. Charles were too difficult to meet, so he just said what he said."

Only then did Niu Xiaoqiang's face soften, and he stated the conditions he had negotiated with Mr. Charles: "Mr. Charles requires Jinnan Petrochemical Machinery to repay the debt of 1000 million US dollars. This is the bottom line, and there can be no less."

Turning 5000 million US dollars into 1000 million is equivalent to a reduction of 80.00%, which is already a very huge discount.

Although Ding Hongqiang felt that this number was still too much, he had no room for bargaining. He nodded and said, "We can still meet this request. Does he have other requests besides this?"

Niu Xiaoqiang hummed: "Mr. Charles has another request, that is, Jinnan Petrochemical must provide two complete production lines of double donkey head oil extraction machines to offset the remaining compensation, as long as Jinnan Petrochemical can meet these two requirements. On one condition, this matter will be resolved satisfactorily.”

If it is a foreign company, the second requirement is difficult to agree.Because foreign manufacturing equipment is expensive, the retail price of a production line may be as high as 2000 million US dollars.

But it is different in China. The price of domestic production equipment is low, and it will not exceed 1000 million yuan at most.This is not only due to the relatively low domestic price level, but also due to the relatively backward performance of domestic production equipment.

The foundation of Jinnan Petrochemical Machinery General Factory is still very strong. As the largest petrochemical equipment manufacturer in China, there is no pressure for them to come up with two production lines.

Of course, this is only from an economic point of view. From a policy point of view, there is still a certain degree of difficulty in providing two sets of production lines to Charles for free.

Ding Hongqiang said with a distressed face: "Xiaoqiang, Jinnan Petrochemical Machinery is of course capable of providing Mr. Charles with two production lines of double donkey head oil extraction machines, but these equipment are all state-owned, and I am not very good at operating them."

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly: "I have already considered this, and I have already told Mr. Charles, and he told me an alternative plan."

Ding Hongqiang immediately asked: "What alternative?"

Niu Xiaoqiang replied: "It's very simple. Jinnan Petrochemical Machinery can help Hunter Company produce double donkey head oil extraction machines in the name of cooperation. Hunter Company will pay you OEM fees according to the quantity produced. As long as you make a one-time payment with Hunter Company After signing a ten-year contract, not only does he not ask for the production line, but he can also pay the OEM fee at the price of US$150 for each small double donkey head oil extraction machine and US$[-] for each large double donkey head oil extraction machine.”

This alternative was very kind, and Ding Hongqiang had no reason to refuse it.
