The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

When Cao Hanhua saw the anxious expression on Koizumi Toshisuke's face, he thought to himself, after all this time, this Japanese guy is trying to trick me.

He put forward so many conditions without any shame. It turns out that he really cares about cooperating with us.

Cao Hanhua immediately became very disgusted with Koizumi Toshisuke.

"What our superiors mean is that the conditions you proposed are simply unacceptable!"

"So, there is no need for us to continue talking."

Koizumi Toshisho had just acted superior, but now he suddenly changed into a different person, smiling apologetically and saying, "Mr. Cao, I just proposed some conditions that are beneficial to us from the perspective of Fengtian."

"If you feel the conditions are unacceptable, you can bargain!"

"How about we have a good chat and come up with a fair and reasonable cooperation agreement?"

Cao Hanhua is in a hurry to go to the Ministry of Machinery Industry now.

He waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I have something very important to do. Let's talk another day."

"Mr. Koizumi, please?"

Cao Hanhua wanted to see the guest off rudely.

Koizumi Toshisho had no choice but to stand up.

"Mr. Cao, your attitude is not one of cooperation."

"Or please let me talk to your boss directly."

"I believe I can convince him."

"Your cooperation with us is the best choice."

Cao Hanhua waved his hand and said, "I don't think so."

"We have new plans."

"Goodbye! Mr. Koizumi."

Having said that, Cao Hanhua left in a hurry.

Koizumi looked at Cao Hanhua's back as he left, feeling a little angry and embarrassed.

He felt that he took the initiative to seek cooperation because he thought highly of Beijing Automobile Company.

However, I didn't expect that I would be kicked out directly.

"You will definitely regret this!"

"You are unwilling to discuss cooperation with me anymore. It is your loss!"

Koizumi muttered to himself as he walked out of the office building of Beijing Automobile Company.

He felt the problem was a bit serious.

Because he certainly knew that any car company in Longguo is now a state-owned enterprise.

If Fengtian cannot reach an agreement on cooperation with Beijing Auto, then other Chinese auto companies probably won't have a chance.

This means that Toshisho Koizumi messed up.

If he reported his work to Feng Tianjing, he would definitely be scolded.

After all, almost everyone believed that it would be very easy to achieve results by negotiating with the Chinese to build a joint venture automobile factory.

If he can't even do such a thing, he will be considered a fool!
He will definitely fall out of favor with his boss in the future.

As Koizumi Toshisho thought about this, he felt that he could not wait and had to continue to take the initiative.

The automobile industry should be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Machinery Industry.

So, I should go and talk directly to their Ministry of Machinery Industry.

Be sincere and see what they really think.

Thinking of this, Koizumi Toshisho went straight to the Ministry of Automobile Industry.

It is said that Cao Hanhua took a car straight to the Ministry of Machinery Industry.

Along the way, he was also thinking deeply.

Perhaps it would be a better choice for Beijing Automotive Company to cooperate with Pangu Technology Company?
After all, Pangu Technology is famous for being rich.

What Beijing Automobile Company urgently needs now is investment.

As long as there is enough investment, it shouldn't be too difficult to develop new car engines, gearboxes, etc.

However, if it cooperates with Pangu Technology, it is very likely that Beijing Auto will be controlled by Pangu Company and lose its freedom.

Well! Perhaps, we can ask Pangu Company for help, accept their capital injection, and let them own shares of Beijing Automobile Company.

However, they cannot control us.

But will they agree to this request?
Cao Hanhua didn't know.

After all, Cao Hanhua still has his own selfish motives.

He is greedy for his current power.

Thinking this way, Cao Hanhua soon arrived at the Ministry of Machinery Industry.

He was led into Wang Mingshan's office.

"Hello, leaders! Hello, Comrade Haoran!"

Cao Hanhua greeted with a smile.

Wang Mingshan nodded and said, "Sit down."

Cao Hanhua sat down.

He sat very still, like a pupil waiting to be lectured.

Wang Mingshan looked at Cao Hanhua and said, "Hanhua, your factory is not doing well recently!"

"The decline in your performance is really too great."

"Look at the Benma Group. It used to be just a township collective enterprise, but now it has become a super-large group company."

"The annual output value of Benma Group is now over 8 billion yuan, and its products have been sold to more than ten countries around the world."

"Dai Hongtao's starting point is a world apart from yours!"

“Have you ever thought deeply about what exactly causes this gap?”

Benma Group, also known as Mafang Machinery Factory.

The current Benma Group produces a series of agricultural vehicles, as well as small cranes, bulldozers and the like.

Of course, they are still a very important refrigerator manufacturer.

It's not just the Mafang Machinery Factory. In fact, a large number of excellent enterprises have emerged in Pingu County.

Cao Hanhua felt a little ashamed.

Facing his leader's words, he was really speechless.

Two years ago, when he first took over the Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant, the company was actually quite good.

Models like the 212 Jeep are still very popular across the country.

It is the official vehicle of many government agencies, enterprises and institutions.

But in the past year or so, their lives have become increasingly difficult.

After all, imported cars have taken up too much space for domestic cars.

In the past two years, those who got rich first started buying private cars.

But very few of these people would buy domestically made cars.

Cao Hanhua smiled bitterly and said, "Leader, your criticism is absolutely correct."

"We have been working very hard on research and development, but we are unable to continue because we have too little research and development funding."

"We would like to get a loan, but the banking industry won't lend us money."

"Ah! Anyway, we seem to have reached a dead end now."

Cao Hanhua could only carefully reflect on himself.

Wang Mingshan shook his head and said, "I understand your difficulties."

"But you lack the courage to risk everything."

"You also lack the motivation to proactively seek opportunities."

"If you can mobilize the entire factory's technical force to improve our old engines and gearboxes, our cars will perform better."

Cao Hanhua could only bow his head and accept Wang Mingshan’s criticism.

What can he do?

He could feel that Wang Mingshan was quite dissatisfied with him.

Cao Hanhua now has a strong sense of crisis in his heart: Will he be cheated?
Wang Mingshan sighed and said, "Forget it, I won't criticize you anymore."

"Comrade Haoran has some ideas of his own. You can talk to him."

Cao Hanhua quickly expressed his attitude: "Okay, okay, please give me more advice, Comrade Haoran."

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "I can't say I can give you any advice. Let's communicate more in the future."

"The purpose of cooperating with foreign automakers is to learn their car-making technology." "But I think we can actually achieve the same goal through internal cooperation."

"I have an idea. Why don't we have in-depth cooperation and jointly develop more advanced three major automotive components and other auxiliary systems."

Cao Hanhua asked weakly, "What is the specific method of cooperation?"

Wang Haoran said: “Let’s also learn from the cooperation model between Shanghai Auto and Volkswagen.”

"We will set up a joint venture together. We will be responsible for all the investments and make full use of your existing conditions to develop new cars."

“Of course, we will take the lead in management.”

“We are also responsible for paying the workers’ wages.”

Cao Hanhua thought, if you guys are in charge of management, then our original leadership team will just step aside?

He was a little bothered by this.

But Wang Mingshan was sitting right next to him.

He didn't even dare to sing a different tune.

"That's not impossible."

"How long will it take to develop a new car? What if the new car is developed but the market still doesn't accept it?"

Wang Haoran smiled and said, “I don’t think this will happen.”

"With our current mechanical manufacturing capabilities and integration capabilities, such a situation should not occur."

"Our first phase of investment will exceed 10 billion RMB."

Cao Hanhua was surprised. He thought, this guy is really rich...

The current annual revenue of Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant is only tens of millions.

Wang Mingshan glanced at Cao Hanhua and said, "Comrade Haoran, this is strong enough support, isn't it?"

"Comrade Hanhua, what do you think?"

Cao Hanhua said: "I agree with both hands! I am willing to cooperate with Pangu Company."

"Thank you comrade Haoran for lending us a helping hand."

"I will fully obey all arrangements made by the organization."

Wang Mingshan nodded and said, "That's right."

"Comrade Haoran has created countless miracles!"

"We were talking about Benma Group just now. You should know about it, right? The first agricultural tricycle was made by Comrade Haoran and the technicians of Mafang Machinery Factory."

"Just this one flagship product has completely transformed the Mafang Machinery Factory."

"In addition, there is Pingu County Machinery Factory, which has become a large-scale home appliance manufacturer. Xinfei refrigerators are well-known throughout the country and are also well-known products abroad."

"Comrade Hanhua, as long as you cooperate well, I firmly believe that your Jingcheng Automobile Manufacturing Plant will also be able to quickly become powerful."

"Well! That's it, you guys negotiate well and reach a cooperation agreement as soon as possible."

"I hope Comrade Hanhua will have a relatively high degree of cooperation, as this concerns the interests of tens of thousands of employees."

Cao Hanhua nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, leader. I will fully cooperate and obey all the work arrangements of Comrade Haoran."

Just then, Wang Mingshan's secretary walked in.

"Leader, there is someone claiming to be a senior representative of Fengtian Company who wants to meet and talk with you."

Cao Hanhua was stunned when he heard this.

Wang Mingshan laughed: "I guess it's the guy who just discussed the joint venture with Comrade Hanhua? He actually came here."

"It seems that they are actually eager to enter our country through a joint venture."

Cao Hanhua said: "This person is not a decent person. The conditions he proposed are very harsh."

"He still acts like he's high and mighty and is giving us favors."

“In short, it makes people feel very uncomfortable.”

Wang Haoran said: "The main reason is that we developed a little too fast."

"They haven't changed their pitiful ideas at all. They always think that we are weak and backward and can let them make whatever conditions they want."

"Foot Basin People, there aren't many areas where you can feel superior."

Wang Mingshan said: "The car with the foot basin is still very powerful."

"We had previously invited them to cooperate in building a factory in our country, but they simply ignored us."

"Well, I'll go meet him and see what he has to say."

Wang Mingshan came out.

Koizumi Toshisuke was sitting in a reception room at the moment, organizing his words. He hoped that he could convince Wang Mingshan, the head of the competent department.

As long as you can convince the other party, the cooperation will surely go smoothly.

It is definitely not appropriate to ask for too much now.

Then just try to get discounts like Volkswagen.

According to Toshisuke Koizumi, Volkswagen's cooperation with Modou Auto Company in Dragon Country is mainly to avoid taxes and face the market more directly.

Volkswagen probably does not want to transfer its industrial chain or localize production.

They just want to turn the factory in Shanghai into an assembly plant.

All spare parts and components are imported.

Only the final assembly is carried out in Longguo.

This way, most processes and businesses can be kept in Hans.

Koizumi Toshisho thought that we at Fengtian must also learn from him.

Wang Mingshan walked in at this time.

"Hello! I am Wang Mingshan, the head of the Ministry of Machinery Industry. You must be Mr. Koizumi Toshisuke from Fengtian Company, right?" Wang Mingshan greeted.

Koizumi Toshisho hastily stood up.

"Hello! Mr. Wang, it's an honor to meet you." Koizumi Toshisho nodded and bowed, his attitude extremely humble.

The two men shook hands and then sat down as host and guest.

After a few pleasantries, Wang Mingshan got straight to the point and said, "Mr. Koizumi, you just discussed cooperation with our Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant, right?"

Koizumi Toshisuke quickly said, "Yes, yes! We just talked about it. Maybe when I talked to Mr. Cao, he had some misunderstandings about me, so we didn't come to any conclusion."

Wang Mingshan smiled faintly and said, "It's not a misunderstanding, it's just that your request is a bit excessive."

"You are just trying to get something for nothing. According to the conditions you proposed, you basically don't have to pay anything and can get the most benefits."

"This is definitely not right!"

Wang Mingshan's straightforwardness made Koizumi Toshisuke a little at a loss.

"Oh, that's just a negotiating tactic."

"Mr. Wang, we are still very sincere in our cooperation."

"Yes! We hope to enjoy the same cooperation conditions as the public."

"As long as you agree, then our cooperation can be achieved quickly."

Wang Mingshan smiled and said, "It seems that you also have communication with the public."

"There is no problem with cooperation. I also have a general understanding of your situation."

“I only have one request: the cooperation must be sincere and fair.”

"Well, let me tell you our demands."

"Both parties will contribute 50 percent of the capital, and the board of directors will also be split equally. We will provide the land and build the factory, and you will provide the technical equipment."

"For joint ventures, there will be a five-year tax exemption."

"The chairman of the board will be your people, but the finances should be controlled by us..."

Wang Mingshan stated his requirements one by one.

The rights and responsibilities of both parties must be made clear.

What Wang Mingshan said is actually almost the same as the cooperation conditions between Modou Auto and Volkswagen.

According to Wang Mingshan's idea, Beijing Capital Auto can cooperate with both Jiaoben and Pangu Technology at the same time.

The funds for the cooperation between Beijing Capital Auto and Jiaoben Fengtian are provided by the state.

He just wanted to see whether Longguo's self-developed automobile brand could compete with Fengtian.

While listening, Koizumi Toshisho wrote down what Wang Mingshan said.

Of course, he couldn't write that fast with a pen.

He directly used a voice recorder produced by Pangu Technology.

After Wang Mingshan finished speaking, Koizumi Toshisho said, "I have only one request: the technology, finance, and personnel of the joint venture company should all be controlled by us." (End of this chapter)
