Chapter 93 The Greedy Dafeng

The office is still filled with smoke.

Liu Neng and Zhu Zhijun, neither of them spoke at the moment, they were both puffing on their cigarettes, and the pack of cigarettes on the desk was gone soon.

Finally, Zhu Zhijun took the last puff, threw the cigarette holder into the ashtray casually, coughed a few times, and then said, "Old Liu, I can understand what you just said, and I also know that the reason you persisted so much is to I understand the future of our Chunqi, and for the sake of China's auto industry."

Liu Neng snorted coldly, "You know everything, you understand everything, but you just don't support me, and you have to give money to those foreigners with a face! I think you know nothing!"

Zhu Zhijun wasn't angry either. He had partnered with Liu Neng for so many years, so he naturally knew Liu Neng's temper.

"Listen to me first. It's just your bad temper, that is, I can bear it. If it were someone else, I would have blown my beard and stared at you a long time ago."

Liu Neng snorted again, but this time, he didn't say anything more.

"Our own engine must be researched and developed, but what others say is also reasonable. We can't just keep our heads down to pull the car, we have to learn to look up at the road. If it's what you said, we can do research with the door closed. , isn’t this a typical case of building a car behind closed doors?”

Zhu Zhijun paused, and continued, "Independent research and development must depend on ourselves, but it is unrealistic to rely on us alone. The Feiteng project cannot wait, the company cannot wait so long, and the market will not give us such a long time. , We have to learn to use our strengths to fight."

"Then what do you mean, cooperate with foreigners in research and development?"

"That's almost what it means. When we talk about cooperation with them this time, we not only need to buy their products, but also need them to provide all the technology of the engine, and then we will digest and absorb it and carry out localized production of the engine."

In the past, when cooperating with Dafeng Motor, although it also involved technical aspects, it was mainly concentrated on products. Dafeng Motor was silent on the core technology. Zhu Zhijun wanted to try to change this situation and realize The real "market for technology".

"The idea is good, but do you think Dafeng Motor will hand over the CTM engine technology to us so easily? Don't forget, this engine is their most classic engine." Liu Neng frowned asked.

"If you haven't tried it, how do you know it's not possible? Besides, we don't have the only choice of Dafeng. If it doesn't work, we can also change to a Ford car." Zhu Zhijun replied with a smile.

"Old Zhu, I advise you not to have too much hope. Whether it is Dafeng or Futong, they are all the same. I still hold the view that it is the most practical to hold fate in your own hands. I always think about relying on others. , sooner or later, I will starve myself to death.”

"I understand what you mean. Let's try it according to my idea first. If it doesn't work, we can only go to the bottom of the boat." Zhu Zhijun frowned deeply, and there was a trace of worry hidden. He could foresee that the next negotiation would not be so easy.

"All right." In the end, Liu Neng still stood by Zhu Zhijun's side. He didn't want the other party to be so embarrassed, but his instinct told him that Zhu Zhijun's thoughts were most likely just wishful thinking.

***
On the way back, Zhou Fei had been thinking about Chunqi's engine project, which provided him with a very good choice for his next venture!

Since Chunqi couldn't design its own engine, why didn't Zhou Fei seize this opportunity to start his business in the engine industry?
You know, Zhou Fei came here with dozens of classic engines from his previous life. No matter what requirements Chunqi puts forward, there must be an engine that can meet their requirements.

What's more, Zhou Fei still has an opportunity to exchange for a full set of technology for any engine, and time is not a problem at all!

As long as he wants, he can immediately realize an engine now!

The 500 million system funds, plus the patent royalties of the EFI system, these funds are enough to enter the engine industry!
As long as Chunqi can handle sales, Zhou Fei doesn't have to worry about it at all!

Thinking of this, even Zhou Fei couldn't help but praise himself!
"I'll discuss it with Mr. Zhu after two days." Judging from today's meeting, it was obvious that Chunqi hadn't decided which plan to choose, so Zhou Fei decided to wait.

Let the bullets fly a little longer!

As for Chunqi, Zhu Zhijun quickly reported their decision to the company, and reorganized a meeting the next day.

"After the company's research and decision, Feiteng Motor's engine project should give priority to technical cooperation with Dafeng Motor. This time, our goal is to strive to obtain all the technology of the CTM engine from Dafeng Motor, not just the engine. Production technology, next, I will assign the next tasks..."

In the conference room, Zhu Zhijun is arranging the next task of negotiating with the German side. Now that the current plan has been decided, it is necessary to ensure that all the materials are ready.

"All departments, after the meeting, immediately prepare the materials they need, and they must be delivered to me before tomorrow night. We have already communicated with the leadership of Dafeng Motor. If there is no accident, three days later, We will have the first round of negotiations."

After emphasizing some precautions, the meeting officially ended, and Zhu Zhijun and Liu Neng walked out of the meeting room at the same time.

"Old Liu, you should also prepare. You and I will be responsible for communicating with the Germans." Zhu Zhijun said as he walked out.

Liu Neng nodded, "I see."

After communication with Chunqi's leadership, Dafeng Motor also responded positively to this proposal, and agreed on the time and place for the first negotiation.

Three days later, in the conference center of Chunqi headquarters, the first negotiation on the CTM engine introduction project officially started here.

On Chunqi's side, Zhu Zhijun and Liu Neng were mainly responsible for the negotiations, while for Dafeng Automobile, their vice president, Jonathan, who worked at Chunqi Dafeng, was in charge.

The two parties to the negotiation had known each other for a long time, so at the very beginning, Zhu Zhijun went straight to the point and put forward his needs.

"Mr. Jonathan, this time to introduce your CTM engine, we hope to obtain the full set of technology of this engine to help us improve the technical level of the engine."

Zhu Zhijun's words quickly reached Jonathan's ears through an interpreter.

Jonathan smiled, "Mr. Zhu, we are all old friends, and we are also happy to improve the engine level of Chunqi, but you also know that the CTM engine is the core technology of our Dafeng Automobile, and you have to come up with it for us. If the conditions are satisfied, we can conduct an equivalent exchange."

"I don't know what your conditions are?" Zhu Zhijun asked.

"It's very simple. We hope to extend the joint venture agreement between our two companies for another 20 years, and at the same time, increase the share ratio by another five percentage points."

Jonathan raised five fingers and replied with a smile.
