Chapter 94 Old Domestic Products

"Roll up your bed?!"

Zhou Xu was unhappy at that time and his face turned grim immediately.

Is it a human being?

You took the initiative to invite us over, and we chatted for a long time. I was already attracted to you, and now you want to pack up and leave?
play?

"Since your company has no sincerity in acquiring the company, why waste time?"

Zhou Xu thought that Chen Chen's words "pack up and leave" meant he wanted to withdraw from the acquisition, so he immediately packed up his documents and stood up, like an insulted young wife.

"Sit down, sit down. Is it okay for you to just listen to half of what I say? I'm not saying that I won't buy it."

"Then what do you mean?"

Chen Chen clenched his fists and placed them on the table. His eyes darkened. “What I mean is that after the acquisition, we will pack up and leave our business in China.”

"Oh...that's not right!"

Zhou Xu's reaction became even more intense.

Why.

It’s true that I nearly died halfway through my business.

But Daotong is still a private enterprise rooted in China after all. Even if it does not perform well, its corpse can still occupy some market share after its death.

We have worked hard to accumulate these things, and the market and industrial chain are all domestic.

"If I don't work in China, where else can I work?" Zhou Xu asked a question from the bottom of his heart.

"Overseas, North America to be exact."

"..."

Seeing Chen Chen lying with his eyes open, Zhou Xu was completely speechless. At the same time, he was also very worried about the mental state of this young man.

It doesn't sound like human language.

It is true that North America has a large population, abundant money and a huge market.

But Zhou Xu, who has been engaged in the manufacturing industry, knows very well that it is impossible to enter the market there.

Because they also have manufacturing industry, and they are in the leading position in some areas.

This is a consensus in the industry.

He asked again from the bottom of his heart: "Why? Are you asking us to fight against higher-level competitors for a higher-level market?"

"A market is a market. What's the difference between high-end and low-end? The potatoes in the supermarket are potatoes. Aren't the potatoes in the vegetable market also potatoes? Mr. Zhou?"

Chen Chen stared directly at Zhou Xu, and his sharp gaze made Zhou Xu tremble.

He really didn't like Zhou Xu's attitude.

In fact, this is a common problem among most manufacturing peers today.

Let’s put aside whether the market is high-end or not for now.

In the past, people thought that the industry on the other side of the ocean was more advanced because this side was relatively backward.

We can only take on some light industries that others don't care about and seek development in the cracks.

When making shoes and bags, it is easy to form a habitual mindset and think that the market and industrial chain on the other side of the ocean are always superior.

"Mr. Zhou, please stand up and think about the problem."

"If you want to say that they are leading in other industries, that's fine."

"We are all veterans in the industry. Don't you know what the domestic drone industry chain is like?"

Zhou Xu's aura weakened a little: "What you mean is..."

"You are both from Pengcheng, so you should know better than me that any e-commerce city in Pengcheng can come up with a complete set of consumer-grade drone solutions."

"That's not wrong..."

Zhou Xu had some idea in his mind.

In fact, the technology of low-end drones is not that advanced.

Putting aside the property rights, many of Pengcheng’s counterfeit and branded drones can be considered excellent products.

If the standards were lowered.

You can buy a machine with dual cameras, one-button take-off, and 3D flip on any shopping website, and the price can be as low as one hundred yuan.

"Your so-called advanced is outdated. When it comes to drones, be confident. We are the most advanced."

"I don't doubt this, but it's mainly because I don't have confidence in Daotong."

After much consideration, Zhou Xu decided to make friends with Chen Chen.

He said frankly: "In fact, over the years, I often doubt myself and wonder if Daotong's skills are lacking."

"Don't doubt yourself, be more confident." Chen Chen nodded, "You two are just lacking in the same way."

"..."

"However, I will provide technical support."

Chen Chen pointed to the pile of documents that Qi Mang brought.

Among them are the technical accumulation eliminated from several industrial-level projects in the past, as well as the technology package that Chen Chen won from the lottery on the turntable.

"When we acquired Daotong, money was only one aspect, and the technical support was of course unambiguous."

"After working in the industrial field for so many years, we also have some core technologies."

"For example, the flight control system, optoelectronic sensors, and power solutions are all in these documents. You can decide for yourself whether they are helpful to you."

Hear this.

Wang Qi and Qi Mang were the first to react.

Their expressions changed color.

Qi Mang couldn't even hold back his laughter.

What core technology is there?

That pile of documents can only be regarded as a draft recycling bin.

But Zhou Xu's eyes brightened a little.

There is a consensus in the industry regarding Morning Shield, the new disruptor.

He is capable in the industrial field.

Don’t say anything else.

The twin-tailed scorpion that appeared in the news a few days ago was apparently a modified version of the Aviation Industry Corporation, but everyone in the industry knew that it was the work of Chendun.

To put it another way, Chendun's technology has evolved from industrial-grade products to military-grade products.

The technology is naturally beyond doubt.

In fact, so much talk.

Sometimes it’s about funds, sometimes it’s about the market…

The two combined are not as attractive to Zhou Xu as this pile of documents.

Chen Chen saw that Zhou Xu was a little moved, and continued to reason with him: "In fact, I feel that such things are not necessary in that lousy place. Those stupid dogs can't tell the difference."

"I looked at the configuration of their police drones yesterday. It's hard to call them drones. It's more appropriate to call them toys."

"With Daotong's rich heritage, plus our Morning Shield's technology, they won't be able to eat even a little bit of it."

Zhou Xu nodded: "I don't deny this."

Chen Chen's idea really opened up a new world for him.

Although his words were a bit biased and exaggerated.

But the logic behind it is valid.

Precision small manufacturing instruments such as drones, backed by a strong and powerful industrial system, do have unparalleled advantages.

Just like what Chen Chen said.

Pengcheng Trade City can just put together a plan and it seems to become a hot commodity after it goes overseas.

It’s just that people’s concepts haven’t changed yet.

Including Zhou Xu himself. Zhou Xu was very glad that he came to meet Chen Chen today. Even if the final acquisition case did not bear fruit, he benefited a lot.

But now a question slowly arose in his heart.

"Mr. Chen, you can say this to me. I think you are an open-minded person."

"I won't hide it anymore."

“It is indeed a good idea for the drone industry to go overseas, but why don’t you implement it yourself?”

Zhou Xu always speculates on people's minds with malicious intent.

There is nothing wrong with doing this in itself, especially in a business where everyone is a bad person.

The idea is so good that Chendun can completely ignore Daotong and go out to sea directly.

The market for industrial-grade drones is also huge overseas.

If Chen Dun goes out in his current state, he will just kill indiscriminately.

Chen Chen was very calm about this question, and waved his hand regretfully, "We can't get out."

"how?"

Qi Mang took over Chen Chen's answer and said, "Boss Zhou, do you think that all those plaques and commendations in our conference room are just a few pieces of rags and iron?"

"Forehead……"

Zhou Xu realized it later and looked up at the golden plaque on the wall.

The vast majority of them are signed by the State Science and Technology Commission or the General Assembly.

The commendation here means overseas sanctions.

It’s not that Chendun doesn’t want to go out, but that overseas countries don’t want them to come in.

Chen Chen shrugged: "So, for the mission to go out to sea, I will count on Daotong."

Zhou Xu still didn't understand: "If you acquire us and we become a company controlled by Morning Shield, won't we also be sanctioned and unable to leave?"

"It's different. Mr. Wang is here."

Chen Chen pointed at Wang Qi, who was big and fat.

He has experience with similar operations.

One of the reasons why Shunfeng Investment was established was that it wanted to avoid risks.

When Wang Qi was planning and conceiving, he made the relationship between himself and Chendun clear through layers of shareholding.

They also planned to use the same method on Daotong.

"If you agree to the acquisition, we, Shunfeng Investment, will step in and use a multi-level nested equity model to carry out the specific acquisition operation."

“This will help hide sensitive shareholders to the greatest extent possible.”

"We have already practiced similar methods and there are no major problems."

Zhou Xu was no novice and could understand Wang Qi's meaning to some extent, but this was not enough to dispel his concerns.

Even if the equity issue is resolved, a clear line will be drawn between the company and Chendun.

Daotong goes overseas, but it is still a domestic company after all.

It will be very difficult for domestic companies to go overseas, unless they go to Africa.

Take the recent case.

Many companies that seem to have nothing to do with the defense industry have been included in the Entity List.

If Daotong really goes overseas and achieves some results, it will be on that list sooner or later.

He worriedly said, "The business model of that place is not good."

"The reality is that I have finally gotten out there and achieved some success."

"If they suddenly issue a ban, all our efforts will be in vain."

"The example of the overseas version of Douyin is right in front of us."

Hearing this, Chen Chen nodded in understanding: "So, you have to learn how to pretend."

"Pack?"

Chen Chen picked up the plan he had prepared previously and gave a general summary.

“It’s still a model of nested equity, fundamentally disguising itself as a company over there.”

"Then you should give yourself an English name, a pure English name, preferably one that is long and smelly."

“The R&D center and production base are all located there.”

"You use the supply chain there for all non-core product components."

“Then, whether it’s packaging or every component, it’s clearly written “Made in the USA.”

Zhou Xu was amazed: "Is it...useful?"

"Of course, and we have to do the whole show."

"As the hardware is installed, the software must also keep up."

"Regarding the personnel composition of your company after you go overseas, there should not be a single Chinese person."

"You just need to control the company through a nested model, and all other employees, from the CEO to the security guards, should be hired from their side."

"The most important thing is to adapt to local customs and make clear the proportion of employees in the company."

Zhou Xu was a little confused: "What proportion?"

"Race."

"You can't just use white people, you have to match them with black people, Latinos, and Arabs."

“Men and women are also balanced.”

"If conditions permit, we should bring in some vegetarians, transgender people, and LGBT people."

"When these buffs are stacked together, they look just like old American domestic products."

Wang Qi added: “If conditions permit, you can shoot a promotional video and put it on various channels.”

"You have your employees of all colors doing publicity all day long."

"Just say make American manufacturing great again or something."

"Have you seen the Melatonin commercial? It's just that kind of brainwashing."

Zhou Xu was stunned.

His mind was completely immersed in this cake.

Don't tell me.

Don't even say it.

That sounds like it.

Chen Chen's mouth curled up slightly: "If this is not enough, I still have a big trick."

"And more!?" Zhou Xu stared.

"When you go out to sea, you show your loyalty."

"We will go out and sue the leading companies in the domestic market."

"If all else fails, you can sue us, Morning Shield."

"We've already been sanctioned anyway, so it doesn't matter. You can just file a lawsuit and accuse us of stealing patents or something, no matter how serious it is."

"With this kind of pledge, are you still worried that the American old Chinese product's reputation will not be established?"

"Uh... can stand..."

Zhou Xu was completely convinced.

That’s a good idea.

The feasibility is high and the effect is predictable.

but……

The path is too crooked!
Could carbon-based organisms come up with such a good idea?
