The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 237 Super strong lobbying, huge orders coming

(Chapter 239 and Chapter 238 were released in reverse order)

Participating in the exhibition is hard work, but it is also very rewarding.

After three consecutive days of exhibition, Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant received 820 formal orders and more than 3000 potential orders.

On the evening of the end of the exhibition, Jiang Hui held a simple celebration banquet with everyone, and started to get busy again the next day.

According to his plan, the sales volume of BMW 70 this year would ideally be able to reach over 2 units, and reach 10 units next year.

This development speed certainly cannot be carried out step by step, and it would be best to get some unexpected help.

"Xiao Jiang, do you want to communicate directly with the American Embassy and promote the BMW 70 as a target product for aid to Argentina?"

In this day and age, contacting foreign embassies is still a sensitive matter.

So to be on the safe side, Jiang Hui came over to report to Qin Hao in advance this time.

Anyway, if this matter is accomplished, it will definitely be a good thing for the Ministry of First Machine Building, and Qin Hao has no reason to object.

"Yes, I have also been paying attention to the changes in the situation in Afghanistan over the past six months."

"There are more and more opposition forces in various places, but the places where they are active are basically not in the big cities of Afghanistan, but in some mountainous areas or on the outskirts of small cities."

"There are generally no decent roads in these places. Whether it is a BJ212 or a Hummer military vehicle, they can't really show their power there, and it's not conducive to the advancement of guerrilla warfare."

"Comparatively speaking, motorcycles are much more flexible. Basically, you can ride them wherever there is a small road, or even where there is no road at all."

"A guerrilla team also has dozens of motorcycles. At that time, each operation will send out hundreds of people, and continuously carry out surprise attacks on the polar bears' convoys or strongholds. It should be able to have a very good striking effect."

"Our BMW 70 has a simple structure and a very light body, which makes it more suitable for the situation in Afghanistan than many military motorcycles."

Jiang Hui wants to talk to the Americans about BMW 70's aid to Afghanistan, so he must prepare sufficient reasons.

Otherwise, the US is not stupid and would not waste this money.

"What you said does make sense. Cars are not really suitable for the Afghan guerrillas. On the contrary, lightweight products like motorcycles and bicycles are more in demand."

"It's just that the Americans now have higher requirements for the management of aid materials. Do you have the confidence to convince them?"

Qin Hao did not plan to show up in person. Dealing with foreigners was not his forte.

"We have to give it a try to see if it works. What if someone is also considering how to change the situation? Wouldn't it be a pity if we don't give it a try?"

Jiang Hui didn't say too much.

Anyway, if he fails to sell motorcycles, he will try again in combination with some of China's guerrilla warfare weapons. He must convince Americans that cooperating with Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory is a very good choice.

When he felt moved, he took action. After reporting to the department, Jiang Hui drove the new BJ212 that the factory had just purchased and came to the American Embassy with Chen Chenxing.

"Master, I remember the first time I came here, they were still called the U.S. Consulate in China. It was a hot day and we rode our bicycles here to repair their bicycles."

"I didn't expect we'd be able to drive over here and talk to them about things so soon."

While registering at the gate, Chen Chenxing was speaking to Jiang Hui in a low voice with deep emotion.

As a middle or senior level manager of a promising future star factory, Chen Chenxing’s confidence is now completely different from before.

When a person is very confident about the future, the temperament he displays is different.

"Since the conference at the end of 78, tremendous changes have begun to take place in all walks of life in the country."

"The entire international environment has also changed a lot, which is a good thing for us."

"There will be many more things that will surprise you."

Jiang Hui knows the pulse of the development of the times, but his sensitivity to the various changes is not as great as Chen Chenxing's.

Besides, there is still a huge gap between China's current status and how popular it was decades ago, so Jiang Hui became even calmer.

"That's true. We used to criticize America every day, but the relationship has changed a lot in recent years."

"Now people are more enthusiastic about going to America than ever before."

“Every TV show and movie related to America is very popular.”

“Times are definitely changing.”

Chen Chenxing quickly completed the registration and then waited there for Smith to come out to pick them up.

Jiang Hui had an appointment with Smith, so after receiving the call from the guard, he immediately came out to take the person in.

"Jiang, you are here to meet our ambassador today. Do you have any good plans to discuss?"

When Jiang Hui made an appointment with Smith to meet with Woodcock, he did not go into too many details about the conversation, but only briefly mentioned his ideas.

So as soon as Smith saw Jiang Hui, he couldn't help but ask questions.

"That must be done."

"The solutions I bring to you are always win-win."

“Only a mutually beneficial and win-win solution can make our cooperation closer.”

Jiang Hui shook hands with Smith and started communicating with him directly in English.

He really couldn't stand the fact that Smith, a strong man, spoke in a "coquettish" way, which gave him goose bumps. "You are right. Mutual benefit and win-win can make things go smoothly for a long time."

"I just hope that everyone in China has the same understanding as you."

The two exchanged pleasantries along the way to the meeting room, and Woodcock came over not long after.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Jiang Hui knew that the other party must have a lot of things to do, so he got straight to the point.

"I heard that in the United States, public opinion has been very negative towards polar bears in the past year, especially after the outbreak of their brazen invasion of Afghanistan, public opinion has been overwhelmingly against polar bears."

"But the polar bears have already firmly occupied the major cities in the country and have supported the emergence of related puppets."

“Under this situation, the development of the growing opposition forces in various parts of Afghanistan has also attracted the attention of many people.”

“But the development of these opposing forces is still somewhat unsatisfactory overall and does not pose much threat to polar bears.”

"I think the biggest reason is that the opposition has too few weapons and has not fully demonstrated its strength."

Since we want to convince Woodcock to accept the use of the BMW 70 as aid to Argentina through cooperation between the two sides, we must make Woodcock realize the benefits of doing so for America.

Otherwise, if they dare to pay, wouldn’t they be the ones being taken advantage of?

"Your analysis makes sense. The BJ212 and Hummer military vehicles you provided to Afghanistan previously played a very limited role."

"Some of them have not even been delivered to Afghanistan."

Woodcock could probably guess what Jiang Hui came here for today.

He has always hoped that China could directly provide weapons and equipment to the opposition forces in Afghanistan, but China's actions in this regard are still not that fast.

More often than not, China wants to provide various vehicles and other supplies.

There are still some concerns about arms exports.

So Woodcock wanted to add fuel to the fire.

"The polar bears have occupied the major cities of the country too firmly. The opposition forces have no way to obtain these equipment smoothly, nor can they fully utilize these equipment."

"However, the provision of these materials still provides a lot of confidence to the opposition forces in Argentina. I think we can provide them with more suitable means of transportation and weapons and equipment while they are actively opposing polar bears."

"For example, I think motorcycles are very suitable for the Afghan opposition forces to use as transport vehicles to raid polar bears and other targets."

"It may have unexpected effects by then."

Jiang Hui closely focused on the purpose and expressed his own views.

Anyway, he didn't say that only the BMW 70 motorcycle is suitable and others are not suitable.

However, among the motorcycles available in China at this stage, there is basically no more suitable one than the BMW 70.

If we import from the United States, whether China is willing to cooperate is another matter. It will also take a long time and ultimately cost no less.

So Woodcock thought about it for a while and agreed with Jiang Hui's point of view.

"I also saw a report in your newspaper about the BMW 70 produced by Chaoyang Motorcycle Factory. I think it's 2998 yuan per car?"

Since you are interested in using Jianghui factory's products, you can naturally move on to the stage of confirming the price.

America was rich, but Woodcock didn't want to spend money carelessly.

"Yes, the domestic price is 2998 yuan, which is roughly equivalent to about two thousand dollars."

"Taking into account the special transportation needs and some customized modifications based on the special environment of Argentina, the price of a motorcycle will eventually be around three thousand dollars."

"As long as the United States invests $3000 million, it can allow the Afghan opposition to have 1 motorcycles and form an army of tens of thousands of motorcycles, causing the polar bears to suffer at least $3 million, or even $30 billion in losses."

“This business is definitely very valuable.”

Jiang Hui knew that what America cared most about was bleeding the polar bear.

They are willing to spend money to buy material aid from China to Afghanistan, just to use Afghanistan's opposition forces to attack the polar bears, create trouble for them, and bring them greater losses.

Obviously, Jiang Hui's idea completely attracted him.

America's economic situation is already better than that of the polar bears. If an investment of 3000 million US dollars can cause the polar bears to lose 3 million US dollars or even more, the input-output ratio is very valuable.

If $3 million is invested, the losses to polar bears will be...

Woodcock got excited just thinking about it.

He is confident he can convince Congress to approve more funding.

"Okay! Then we will purchase 1 BMW 70s from your factory this year, and the price will be the $3000 you mentioned."

"But some parts such as tires must be specially reinforced, and each motorcycle must be equipped with two rifles and a basic magazine."

Since we want to support the opposition forces in Afghanistan, we cannot simply send transportation tools, we also need weapons.

Otherwise, there is no way to fully exert the destructive effect and achieve Woodcock's desired goal.

"No problem. I suggest you discuss with the Fifth Machine Department to see if you can sell a batch of RPGs, grenades and other weapons at the same time."

Jiang Hui was overjoyed to see Woodcock decide on a huge order of 3000 million U.S. dollars in one go.
