Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

Chapter 123 The City of Princes

"Offended someone? What's going on?" Yang Mo looked confused.

Wittelsbach said with a grimace: "According to the information I inquired about, someone from above sent a message asking the Federal Office for Economics and Export Control to seize the goods of Cima Machine Tools!"

Yang Mo asked in surprise: "How is this possible? Zhiyuan International has never had any grudges with anyone since it entered the German market. What's going on? Mr. Bach, do you have detailed inside information?"

Wittelsbach hesitated for a moment and then said: "Have you ever heard of the Hernanste family?"

Yang Mo blurted out with a look of disbelief: "The City of Princes? Zhiyuan International has never interacted with them!"

Wittelsbach nodded and said: "That's right! The Hernanste family is the founder of the famous Prince City of Coburg. The Hernanste family has marriages with almost all royal families in Europe, and their power spreads throughout the world. Europe."

Yang Mo gradually had a rough outline of the whole incident: the Hernandste family bought an employee of Cima Machine Tools, got the news about the dismantling of the five-axis CNC milling machine, and then reported it to the Federal Bureau of Economics and Export Control. Press and seize this batch of equipment...

But why do they do this?What is the real intention?Yang Mo was puzzled.

"Mr. Wittelsbach! Could you please help me make an appointment with Mr. Hernandez-Wiff?" Yang Mo said after thinking for a long time.

Mr. Wittelsbach nodded in agreement: "Yes! But Mr. Yang, I can only help you pass on a message. Hernandez-Wiff is a very proud person. God knows whether he will agree to see you... …”

Yang Mo also calmed down and said with a smile: "He will meet me!"

It can be considered that there has been some progress. At least we know who is targeting Xima Machine Tool. It is better than crying on the grave for a long time and not knowing who died!

The Port of Hamburg, located on the right bank of the lower reaches of the Elbe River in northern Germany, is the largest port in Germany and the second largest container port in Europe.The Federal Office for Economic Affairs and Export Control is located here.

Lin Xi waited for more than an hour before meeting Lindbergh, the official in charge of the Cima machine tool case.

Lin Xi asked straight to the point: "Mr. Lindbergh, I am Lin Xi, the attorney of Cima Machine Tool. When will the seized container of Cima Machine Tool be released?"

Lindbergh didn't even bother to raise his head and said in an official tone: "Go back and wait for the news! Cima Machine Tool is suspected of selling a class of technical control equipment, which violates the federal technology control law and will not be released for the time being!"

Lin Xi argued rationally: "Mr. Lindbergh, Cima Machine Tool is a company that has just stood up again from the edge of bankruptcy. We don't even have controlled advanced technology for the time being. As far as I know, this export None of the machine tools and equipment declared for customs have entered the catalog of the Federal Technology Control Law..."

Lindbergh waved his hand impatiently: "Whether it violates the Federal Technology Control Act or not, you have no say! Among the customs declaration products seized by Cima Machine Tool this time, many high-precision machine tools and milling machines are expressly stipulated by the Paris Coordination Committee. , ban products exported to third world countries!”

Lin Xi said calmly: "Mr. Lindbergh, as the attorney of Cima Company, I need a clear receipt. Which piece of equipment violated the control of the "Batumi Agreement"? Rather than a general high-precision machine tool …”

Lin Xi's toughness also forced Lindbergh to stop writing in his hand. After raising his head, a delicate face with an oriental face jumped into his eyes. His frown instantly relaxed a lot, and he explained in a more patient tone than before. : "We have temporarily detained the customs-declared products of Cima Machine Tools. The specific equipment that violated the federal export control law needs to be confirmed after the technical hearing of the expert group. I can't give you a clear answer now, and the specific punishment measures will also need to be heard after the hearing." It has been decided that what you have to do now is to prepare technical information and accept the questioning of the expert group at the hearing."

Lin Xi discovered the loophole in Lindbergh's words and frowned: "Mr. Lindbergh, you mean that the Federal Export Control Bureau seized our goods without any evidence? What you are doing is inconsistent with law enforcement. Procedure, which has delayed the delivery date of Xima machine tools, and needs to bear corresponding legal responsibility!"

"Our seizure actions are fully in compliance with federal export control law enforcement procedures. The Export Control Bureau has the right to conduct surprise inspections of any company's customs-declared products and seize prohibited equipment suspected of violating export controls!" Lindbergh retorted. road.

At the same time, the Cima Machine Tool Technology Department was also in a mess. The old-fashioned and arrogant August refused to revise the design drawings for the dismantled CNC milling machine mechanical parts.

Juliet knew the importance, and she understood that whether or not she could successfully pass the test this time would be another life-or-death event for Xima Machine Tool.

Juliet suppressed his anger and said coldly: "Mr. August! I need to remind you that as the technical director of Xima Machine Tools, you have the obligation to make any efforts and attempts for the company to survive this crisis safely."

August remained unmoved and continued to say: "I can't sign on such an ugly design drawing. How can Cima Machine Tool produce such an ugly product? Such a design is simply full of loopholes. It looks like Products from the last century..."

Juliet said angrily: "August, I'm not negotiating with you! Complete the modification of the design drawings and pass the inquiry of the hearing expert panel. I don't care what method you use, this is your responsibility!"

August, a stubborn Germanic old man, once his temper got louder, he would not even give face to the boss, not to mention Juliet, the acting general manager. The two sides were arguing, and no one was willing to take a step back. There was no way for Juliet to retreat. , and even thought of changing coaches before the battle.

Just when Juliet was about to turn around and leave, requesting Yang Mo to replace August, a timid voice suddenly sounded in the technical conference room: "Mr. August, I have a way to make the design drawings readable." It doesn’t look so ugly and obtrusive…”

When Juliet heard this, he stopped and without waiting for August to respond, he said, "David, tell me what you think..."

David looked at Juliet, then looked back at August, and said hesitantly: "If the mechanical parts of the CNC milling machine are split into a drilling machine and an ordinary three-axis machine tool, it doesn't look like It’s very abrupt, and it can barely be justified from the design principle. Besides, it is understandable that our Xima machine tools are sold to Chinese companies with some overstocked and obsolete products..."
