Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 375 Heavy Truck Procurement Program
Niu Xiaoqiang briefly recounted the conversation. Fang Dongping was taken aback for a long time before he sighed, "This Smith is really low-key. His family conditions are so good, and he dresses so casually."

Wu Ping was sitting on the side, and she said something like this: "It would be great if we had mines in Gufeng Township, so that all the villagers can make a fortune."

Niu Xiaoqiang saw that she was envious of Smith's family having a mine, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "Let's face the reality, you don't have his kind of life."

Wu Ping just expressed emotion, she put away her thoughts and asked, "Can we start work?"

Niu Xiaoqiang slapped his hands to boost his morale: "Of course, let's start now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Ping looked directly behind him and reminded him in a low voice: "That Smith is walking towards us."

Niu Xiaoqiang turned his head and found that Smith was indeed walking this way.The guy was sticking out his nose and sniffing around as he walked, as if he was looking for a certain smell.

Since Niu Xiaoqiang had already made friends with the other party, he naturally couldn't ignore it at this time. He walked to the booth, and when Smith was about to walk over, he asked with a smile: "Smith, what are you looking for? If you don't mind Can you tell me? Maybe I can help?"

Smith saw that it was Niu Xiaoqiang, and immediately smiled: "It's a coincidence, I didn't expect that we met again just after a while, I was looking for an engine manufacturer, and I heard from other people that this booth had a live demonstration of the engine just now. Niu Xiaoqiang, I wonder if you can help me find them?"

Niu Xiaoqiang was immediately dumbfounded, and said to himself: This guy is looking for the smell of diesel oil!

So far, Niu Xiaoqiang is the only booth in the entire exhibition hall that has conducted an on-site test run of the engine, which means that the person Smith is looking for is him.

Niu Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, and he asked full of curiosity, "Why are you looking for that booth?"

Smith replied calmly: "I still have the task of purchasing trucks. I heard that the engine at that booth has been approved by Bayer Company. If this is the case, it means that their engine performance is very good. The mine at my home Mining is changing trucks every year, so I want to check with them, and if their product is really good, I want to buy from them."

Niu Xiaoqiang never thought that Smith would need to purchase transport trucks, otherwise he would never miss the opportunity.Hearing Smith's words at this moment, Niu Xiaoqiang felt like a piece of cake from the sky, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Hahahaha! This is really a fate! To be honest, I am the person you are looking for! "

Smith was a little confused: "What did you say?"

"I said just now that our factory was showing the engine on site!"

This time it was Smith's turn to be dumbfounded: "Is this true?"

Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly took out William's business card: "Just look at this and you'll know if it's real."

Smith couldn't help laughing after reading the business card: "We are really destined, what a coincidence!"

Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly pulled Smith to the engine.The engine had been moved to the back of the booth by Li Yu and Fang Dongping. He pointed to the diesel engine that had just been tested and said, "This is the diesel engine that was just started. There is still temperature on the casing. You can take a look first. If it feels right, how about we talk about business again?"

Smith glanced at it for a while and smiled wryly: "I don't know much about this technology, but Bayer is still trustworthy. Since they have approved your product, it means that your product is really good. Let's talk about it directly. contract."

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't wait for this. He asked Smith to sit down and asked, "I don't know how much your purchases are?"

This question is very critical, directly related to how much money Niu Xiaoqiang can earn, so after he finished asking the question, he stared straight at Smith with a look of anticipation on his face.

Smith took out a document from his satchel and handed it to Niu Xiaoqiang: "This is the procurement plan I decided before I came to the Canton Fair. Anyway, there is no confidential information. You can read it casually."

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded, and looked carefully.The purchase quantity determined in this document is fifty vehicles, all of which are complete vehicle purchases.The delivery period is half a year.

According to Smith's request, these trucks must have a load capacity of at least [-] tons, and people will not buy them below this load capacity.As for the engine model and other specifications, Smith did not write.Maybe these problems are nothing to him.

Niu Xiaoqiang currently doesn't even have an engine production line, let alone a complete vehicle production line.Even so, he was unwilling to give up the deal.

After pondering for a while, Niu Xiaoqiang thought of a countermeasure, and he smiled slightly: "Your request is very simple, I can complete this order on time, but I need to know the purchase price you gave in advance, after all, it is a business , I don’t want to lose money.”

Smith received a university education from a western developed country. His business thinking mode is the same as that of Westerners. He does not pay attention to personal friendship, but a business-like attitude.

"Of course, although we are already friends, we still have to follow the business rules when doing business. The purchase budget for this batch of heavy trucks is 100 million US dollars, which means that the unit price of each vehicle is [-] US dollars. You Are you satisfied with the price?"

If Niu Xiaoqiang can really receive a payment of 100 million US dollars, he will be very satisfied, but the state policy does not allow him to do so.No manufacturer can directly receive the U.S. dollars paid by foreign businessmen, and they will be converted into RMB by the state halfway. As for U.S. dollars, they are all included in foreign exchange reserves.

According to the official exchange rate, 4 U.S. dollars is equivalent to [-] yuan.Even at this price, it is impossible to buy a heavy-duty truck with a load capacity of [-] tons in China, let alone a foreign trade order.

There is a place that cannot be ignored in foreign trade orders, and that is the transportation cost.Zambia is tens of thousands of miles away from China, and the transportation cost is not a small amount.If the transportation fee is excluded, Niu Xiaoqiang will lose even more.

Fortunately, the country has an export subsidy policy, which can be a fuss.If the state subsidizes Niu Xiaoqiang at a price of five to one, then the unit price of each car will be 10 yuan.
