Chapter 194 The fastest speed in history, finalizing the first batch of sales
Although the Chinese New Year is coming soon, the factory director Zheng Haiming obviously has urgent matters to see Jiang Hui.
In this case, Jiang Hui definitely didn't waste a second and quickly came to Zheng Haiming's office.
Even when he pushed the door open and entered the office, he pretended to be out of breath, indicating that he ran over as soon as he received the call.
When working in a state-owned enterprise, even if you are very capable, your attitude towards the leadership cannot be ignored.
"Zheng Chang, are you looking for me?"
The moment Jiang Hui saw Zheng Haiming, he began to observe his expression.
There must be something particularly important to find yourself in such a hurry.
As for whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, some information can be seen from Zheng Haiming's expression.
“The United States responded and agreed to cooperate with us.”
"The first batch of cooperation projects will be finalized on 1,000 BJ212s, and subsequent projects will be discussed slowly."
Zheng Haiming did not hide his joy at all.
An incredible thing was accomplished in such a short period of time. This is definitely an incredible political achievement.
Although there are definitely still a lot of details that need to be communicated about the export of BJ212, and even the sales price of each vehicle has not been determined yet, but the general direction is set, which is already very remarkable. .
“Are Americans that fast?”
Jiang Hui had long expected that America would agree to his proposal. After all, this was a win-win situation.
And it is a win-win situation not only for China, but also for the United States.
Through this project, they attacked polar bears, also won over China, and even confirmed some of China's attitudes.
No wonder Woodcock received a reply so quickly after reporting to the country.
Normally, such a major aid project involves many processes, and it is impossible to make a decision so quickly.
However, they decided on the general direction of the first batch of transactions as quickly as possible in history. It seems that Jiang Hui's proposal has completely scratched their itch.
“Yes, Woodcock called me personally, and they have officially contacted our relevant departments.”
“I also reported it to the First Machinery Department just now. , I guess we will have to be busy discussing with the Americans to determine the specific details during the Spring Festival this year.”
Zheng Haiming quickly introduced the current situation.
For the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, this first business deal has been concluded. The task of exporting 1,000 BJ212 vehicles to earn foreign exchange will allow him to steadily defeat other factory directors in the one-machine department system.
In the future, even if the export-earning projects have nothing to do with the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, they will have little impact on Zheng Haiming.
"It's really great. This is of great significance to the development of our factory."
At this moment, Jiang Hui's mood became excited.
Although I had predicted that the United States would be very interested in this matter, after all, I just stayed at my own speculation.
Now that it has become a reality, it still feels very different.
"The First Machinery Department and relevant departments should soon form a dedicated team to communicate with the American delegation."
"In addition to BJ212, some follow-up firearms and ammunition-related materials will definitely be received from the Afghan side." There is also a huge demand."
"There is absolutely huge room for cooperation between the two parties in this regard."
"When the time comes, I will also recommend you to join the negotiation team. . ”
As the first factory to cooperate and the director of the factory that initiated this project, Zheng Haiming will definitely be in the initial negotiation team.
But Jiang Hui's level is still relatively low, so it's hard to say whether he will have a chance.
Now that Zheng Haiming has made such a statement, the situation has naturally become different.
"Thank you Factory Zheng, I will not embarrass the factory."
Although Jiang Hui is not particularly concerned about being able to join the negotiation team, Zheng Haiming said it like that , this favor must be recognized, and the gratitude should be thanked.
“We will go to the Machinery Department again later to see what specific arrangements Leader Zhou has.”
"The best thing is to really implement this matter as soon as possible."
Zheng Haiming can't wait to finalize this matter.
As long as the US dollars from the United States are not transferred to the designated account, this matter will not be implemented after all.
"Factory Zheng, at what price are we going to sell BJ212?"
Jiang Hui knew that some factories were selling their products at a loss in order to earn foreign exchange.
Originally, the prices of products from various factories in China were not high, and if they were to be sold at a loss, the prices would be too low.
Although from the perspective of this era, even a loss is valuable, because it can earn foreign exchange and the RMB can be printed by itself.
But Jiang Hui feels that there is absolutely no need to do this kind of business at a loss, and Americans will not miss you.
This matter is beneficial to both parties. Just do business according to normal rules.
It’s just this simple truth that many people probably still can’t figure out.
"I really haven't thought about this carefully. As long as it's not particularly low, it's acceptable."
Zheng Haiming's reaction was not what Jiang Hui expected. Everyone gives priority to foreign exchange, and the selling price is negotiable.
“Chang Zheng, the current lowest price allocated for the new BJ212 is 31,000 yuan, and the highest price for unplanned models is even 60,000 to 70,000 yuan.”< br>
“I think this cooperation with the United States can be sold based on the unplanned maximum sales price and converted into U.S. dollars according to the official exchange rate.”
"The price of a car is about US$50,000, although it is a bit high, but as the first cooperation business, I think Americans may still accept it."
When Jiang Hui said this, Zheng Haiming was stunned. .
The price of a car is $50,000?
He originally thought that as long as the price was more than 5,000 US dollars, it would be acceptable.
I didn’t expect Jiang Hui to be so cruel!
"At this price, you can buy a car with better performance than the BJ212 even in the United States, right?"
Zheng Haiming also knows more or less about the international automobile market.
Especially in the past year or so, the First Machinery Department has been organizing various negotiations for the "three automobiles" and has obtained a lot of information from abroad and translated it.
Some of this information was also distributed to relevant factories, and Zheng Haiming also read some of it.
"It is true, but when purchasing a car from the United States and finally transporting it to Argentina, the various costs involved are extremely exaggerated. The most important thing is that the cycle is also very long. There is no way Achieve the purpose of quickly attacking polar bears. ”
"With a price of US$50,000 per unit, we will be responsible for transporting the BJ212 to the border with Algeria. This alone is very attractive to the United States."
"Besides, , We can also consider this as an opportunity to lay a foundation for cooperation between the two parties.”
“If other factories cooperate with the United States in the future, they will also have a reference object so that they will not set the price too low. If it harms our interests in China, the United States will not appreciate it.”
Zheng Haiming thinks Jiang Hui’s explanation makes sense.
There’s no harm in giving it a try anyway.
When it comes to some new things, Jiang Hui's vision is obviously better than his own.
This matter itself was brought up by Jiang Hui. In this case, just follow the method he said.
"Okay, let's proceed according to the price you mentioned. Then I will personally explain to Leader Zhou."
After thinking about it, Zheng Haiming was not so entangled.
Soon, he went to the First Machinery Department with Jiang Hui.
When communicating with Zhou Jian and Qin Hao, I must have finally convinced them.
After all, this plan sounds very reasonable and is very beneficial to China.
If you don’t agree with this, it will be unclear if you are held responsible in the future.
In the next few days, the Ministry of Machinery and other ministries and commissions took the lead to formally communicate this matter with the American delegation.
In addition to the ambassador Woodcock, the United States also sent a group of people to discuss.
Since Jiang Hui had analyzed various situations thoroughly in advance, everyone in the negotiating team had a deeper understanding of America's ideas.
The result of this kind of negotiation based on knowing yourself and the enemy will naturally not be bad.
In the end, it only took three days for the first batch of sales to be officially finalized.
The price was US$50,000 per car as proposed by Jiang Hui, but the other party asked to make some changes to the BJ212 and directly gave away a machine gun installed on the car.
In this regard, China naturally has no problem.
China may not be able to handle other high-precision weapons.
But for general-purpose firearms such as machine guns, there is absolutely no problem.
There is no need for additional production, just pull a batch directly from the strategic warehouse to consume the inventory.
You must know that in factories of this era, various security departments have various machine guns, anti-aircraft guns and other gadgets, which are definitely not something that future generations can imagine.
“It’s true that your factory doesn’t make people happy during the Chinese New Year.”
"We have four days of Spring Festival holiday this year, but you won't see anyone for the first three days."
On the third night of the Lunar New Year, Jiang Hui finally had time to go home.
A few days ago, their negotiating team gathered directly to communicate, and they couldn't even go back home.
Fortunately, people in this era have relatively high consciousness. In addition, there have been no holidays during the Spring Festival in the past few years, so not many people have any opinions.
Even if Jiang Hui had objections, he could only endure it at this time.
After all, this matter is indeed very important, and it is considered normal practice for relevant departments to pay more attention to it.
"Xiao Jiang is busy with a big thing. What do you know?"
Zhu Jiansheng knows some news.
Everyone is a member of the system. Although it is impossible for these cooperations to appear in newspapers for everyone to know, it is normal for people within the system to know some rumors.
Not to mention that Jiang Hui had mentioned this matter to Zhu Jiansheng before and asked Zhu Jiansheng to report it within the Fifth Machinery Department.
