Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

This time, Ichikawa Katsuya didn't go to the toilet again, he really went to the president of Sakurada Co., Ltd.

The 55% discount price is no longer something that Kawasaki can decide. He must go to the president for instructions.

The president probably wouldn't accept such a low price, so Ichikawa Katsuya had to convince the president to accept this price.

Shi Chuansheng also went to persuade the president, while Li Weidong stayed in the conference room and continued to drink tea.

Based on Li Weidong's understanding of plastic processing equipment, even if it is sold at a 55% discount, Sakurada Co., Ltd. still makes some profits, and even still has a profit of more than five million US dollars.

The profits of high-end machinery and equipment are very amazing, especially in the 1980s and 1990s, when Europe, the United States and Japan monopolized the upper, middle and lower reaches of the machinery and equipment industry. At that time, low-end machinery and equipment could be sold at high prices. Absurdly high.

For Li Weidong, of course, he can use Sakurada Co., Ltd. to cut corners to lower the price, and even not give Sakurada Co., Ltd. the slightest profit margin.

But Li Weidong's purpose is not to make a dead fish, even if he has the handle of Sakurada Co., Ltd., but Li Weidong still decides to give Sakurada Co., Ltd. some profit space.

Coercion and enticement are easier to reach a consensus. Sakurada Co., Ltd. feels that there is still money to be made, so it is naturally easier to choose the practice of calming things down.

If you push Sakurada Co., Ltd. too quickly, you might get into trouble again.

What's more, the money for the equipment was not paid by Li Weidong himself, so don't care so much about spending other people's money.

As expected, Xie Chuansheng did not disappoint Li Weidong. When it was getting dark, Xie Chuansheng also appeared again, bringing good news.

"Mr. Li, after my hard persuasion, our president has agreed to a 55% discount." Sai Chuansheng also said.

"Thank you, Mr. Xichuan!" Li Weidong said and stood up: "Then I won't disturb Mr. Xichuan. I'll leave first."

"Wait a minute!" Xie Chuansheng also stopped Li Weidong, and then asked in a low voice, "What happened in Yankuang five years ago, I hope Mr. Li can keep it a secret!"

Li Weidong smiled slightly: "Mr. Xie Chuan, please rest assured,

I will definitely be tight-lipped! "

...

After leaving Sakurada Co., Ltd., Li Weidong looked at his watch.

"It's almost dinner time, I hope the hotel hasn't opened dinner yet!" Li Weidong thought while looking around. He saw the phone booth on the street and walked over immediately.

Then Li Weidong called the hotel and asked the front desk of the hotel to transfer to Xie Hui's room.

At this time, Xie Hui was watching TV while waiting to eat.

What was playing on the TV was a funny show. Although Xie Hui couldn't understand the Japanese in it, he could have a good time watching the picture.

When the phone rang, Xie Hui was stunned, thinking who was calling him? I can't even understand Japanese! I hope the other party understands English.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Hui picked up the phone and said into the receiver, "Hello!"

However, what was said in the receiver was Chinese: "Is it Xie Ting?"

Xie Hui breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Yes, I'm Xie Hui."

"Xie Ting, I'm Li Weidong!" Li Weidong reported himself.

"Director Li, you called specifically, did you encounter any trouble?" Xie Hui asked nervously.

"Xie Ting has been thinking too much, I'm fine, no trouble! By the way, has Xie Ting had dinner yet?" Li Weidong asked.

"No, it shouldn't be done at the hotel yet." Xie Hui looked at his watch and said, "It's about half an hour before dinner starts!"

"That's right, I know it's nice to have a wine house, otherwise you shouldn't eat in the hotel tonight, let's go out to eat." Li Weidong said.

"Well..." Xie Hui hesitated for a few seconds and said, "I am the head of the trade group after all, so I'm afraid it's not a good idea to leave the group!"

"Xie Ting, I invited you not only to finish the meal, but also have something to report to you, which is about Xizhi Electric's OEM orders. There are many people in the hotel, and some matters involving business secrets, I think it is better to report separately. Good." Li Weidong said.

"That's right!" Xie Hui nodded. He didn't know if Li Weidong really had something to report to him, or if he deliberately made an excuse to invite him to dinner.

But dinner in an izakaya is definitely much better than in a hotel, and you can have a drink. In the name of listening to the work report, going to an izakaya is not considered to be out of the group.

So Xie Hui nodded and agreed: "Well, where is the izakaya you said?"

Li Weidong reported an address, but Xie Hui was a little worried. Xie Hui had never been to the place Li Weidong said, and he was worried that he could not find it.

"Xie Ting, otherwise, I'll call Translator He and ask Translator He to take you there." Li Weidong said.

Li Weidong called He An'an's room again.

"Mosimoxi." He Anan's voice came to mind on the phone.

"Have you eaten yet?" Li Weidong asked directly.

"It's you!" He Anan continued: "I haven't seen you for two days, how is the talk with Xizhi Company?"

"It's okay to talk, I'm still outside and haven't gone back!" Li Weidong paused, then said, "I have something to ask for your help."

"Let's just say, why did you think of calling me, it turned out to be the Three Treasures Palace without anything!" He Anluo said with a coquettish tone, "Agree in advance, I won't help you in vain, you have to ask I eat!"

"Okay, I'll invite you tonight." Li Weidong replied with a smile.

"What are you doing to help, just say it!" He Anan said.

"Do you remember the liquor store I pointed you to when we had sushi last time, the owner was a thin old man." Li Weidong said.

"Remember!" He Anan then asked, "Are you going to invite me to dinner there?"

"Yes, but it's not just you, but also Xie Ting! I have something to talk to Xie Ting about. I plan to go to the wine house, but Xie Ting doesn't recognize the way, so you have to take him there."

"It turned out to be inviting others to dinner, so take me along by the way!" He An'an said pretending to be dissatisfied.

Li Weidong said with a smile: "If you eat and drink, don't pick fat and thin!"

...

It didn't take long for He An'an to bring Xie Hui to the wine house.

After Xie Hui sat down, he looked around at the people in suits and leather shoes, and couldn't help but said, "These people come out to drink, and they are dressed so formally!" Xie Hui couldn't help but say.

"They are all Japanese office workers. Japanese office workers often have dinner parties after their daily work, and izakaya is their first choice."

At this time, the boss also brought the wine and dishes, and Li Weidong poured Xie Hui wine and said, "Xie Ting, try this Japanese wine."

Xie Hui looked at the wine glass, but instead of drinking, he said, "Director Li, you said on the phone earlier that you have something to report to me, so let's talk about business first! After talking about business, drink."

"Alright!" Li Weidong put down the jug in his hand and said; "I will report first about the negotiation with Xizhi Electric. Before that, I went to Xizhi's headquarters and met President Tanaka of Xizhi, and asked President Tanaka to him. It is proposed that more OEM orders can be undertaken from Xizhi Electric.

Xizhi Electric also hopes to transfer the business of small home appliance production. After all, this part of the business employs a lot of people and the profit is not large. Xizhi hopes to develop into high-end business, so it will inevitably abandon some low-end business. It can be said that my thoughts coincide with Xizhi's biography! "

Xie Hui nodded: "This is a good thing, so Xizhi Electric is willing to give you more OEM orders?"

"Li Weidong shook his head: "President Tanaka rejected me! "

"Rejected?" Xie Hui frowned and asked, "Do you know the reason?"

"Xizhi has already made plans internally, and they intend to hand over OEM orders to Malaysia." Li Weidong said.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Xie Hui's expression.

Li Weidong went on to say: "The reason why Xizhi Electric chose Malaysia is that Malaysia is close to Singapore, and Singapore can provide plastic parts for home appliance production. Xizhi Electric believes that plastics will be the trend of the home appliance industry in the future, so they want to Plan ahead."

"Plastic? We can also produce plastic in China! As far as our province is concerned, there are Qicheng Petrochemical and Huanghai Petrochemical." Xie Hui said with some dissatisfaction.

"What Xizhi needs is not plastic raw materials, but processed plastic parts! To process plastic parts, we need to use some relatively high-end plastic processing equipment. These are not available in our country and must be imported from abroad."

Li Weidong paused, then said, "But I still fought with President Tanaka. If I can buy high-end plastic processing equipment, Xizhi will reconsider and give me an OEM order."

"High-end plastic processing equipment? Isn't that what Huanghai Petrochemical is going to purchase this time!" Xie Hui nodded thoughtfully.

"Xie Ting, you're right. I also thought of Huanghai Petrochemical, so I wondered if I could get high-end plastic processing equipment through Huanghai Petrochemical. So this morning, I talked to Huanghai Petrochemical's Song Jinlong Plant. Together, we went to the Sakurada Co., Ltd. that provided the equipment, and listened to the negotiations between Director Song and the others." Li Weidong said.

Xie Hui frowned and said, "Then you should already know that the negotiation of Huanghai Petrochemical did not go well. The Sakurada Co., Ltd. tightened the offer and refused to give in an inch."

"I know that after the negotiation of Huanghai Petrochemical ended today, I contacted Japanese negotiators privately and tried to help Huanghai Petrochemical to negotiate the price." Li Weidong replied.

"Aren't you going to drop a penny?" Xie Hui asked immediately.

Li Weidong smiled slightly: "Fortunately, Sakurada Co., Ltd. made some concessions."

"This is a good thing. Huanghai Petrochemical has been talking for several days, but the other party has not made any concessions! You have made a contribution! Huanghai Petrochemical will definitely remember your favor." Xie Hui then asked: "Sakura How much can you get cheaper from Tian Co., Ltd.?”

"It's almost 45 million cheaper!" Li Weidong replied.

Xie Hui thought silently in his heart, the disappointment in his eyes flashed, and he only heard him say; "Forty-five million yen, almost four hundred thousand dollars, it is not bad to be able to save four hundred thousand dollars."

Li Weidong said, "Xie Ting, I didn't make it clear just now that the 45 million is not Japanese yen, but US dollars!"

"What? Forty-five million dollars cheaper?" Xie Hui was dumbfounded.
