Chapter 757 Press Conference
Zheng Xingqiao was restless. He was originally here to ask Xu Xingquan for help and deal with the Oriental Machinery Factory together, but he didn't expect that Fei Nan appeared out of nowhere and directly defeated his boss. What else can he do?
My supervisor died in vain?
That was an old friend who had been with him for decades, and he was killed by someone, and his body was hung at the door of his foreign business. This was like slapping him in the face in front of Quan Shanghai people.
He knew that it was Fernan who killed the person, but Fernan took the initiative to send the scapegoat, and he took the initiative to deliver the scapegoat to his door.
It’s really a suffocating feeling that you can’t say anything about the fault.
What made him even more difficult to understand was that Xu Xingquan had no idea why, but he trusted Fei Nan so much and believed whatever he said.
Half of Wanchang Foreign Company's equipment was built within one year? Who did he think he was?
Although Wanchang Foreign Store has a complete catalogue, the most-selling categories only account for about one-third.
Those large items cannot be sold a few in a year. As for rare items like elevators, there are many people who are interested, but real buyers may not encounter one in a few years.
Oriental Machinery Factory just built a press, but it dared to say that it would be too arrogant to build half of Wanchang's equipment in a year, and it was not afraid of the wind blowing its tongue.
But even so, Xu Xingquan still believed it. He didn't know where he had such great confidence in Fernan. He would start a domestic product store with him in a few words. Isn't this breaking his financial path for Zheng Xingqiao?
In front of Fernan, he didn't dare to say anything, after all, this was a fierce god who could kill without blinking.
But when Fernan said goodbye and left, he couldn't help it.
"Brother Quan, do you really believe his words?"
He asked impatiently: "He was bragging at first glance!"
No more nervousness than before, Xu Xingquan slowly drank a sip of tea and asked, "What if he is not bragging?"
"he……"
Zheng Xingqiao was speechless for a moment and couldn't speak.
Xu Xingquan answered for him: "If he wasn't bragging, the Oriental Machinery Factory could really create mechanical equipment with a quality of no less than that of the Western, then wouldn't we make money when we cooperate with him?
You know how high the profits of mechanical equipment are, how much can the iron guy put together with a bunch of parts cost? Why is it so expensive? Isn’t it because foreigners can make it, so we can’t make it?
Mechanical equipment seems to sell equipment, but in fact it sells foreign technology! It is also valuable technology!
If Oriental Machinery Factory really has this technology, then they are holding a golden rice bowl in their hands. We will cooperate with them and get a share of the pie. What's wrong with it?"
Zheng Xingqiao opened his mouth but could not refute it.
Xu Xingquan is right. If the Oriental Machinery Factory can really build those equipment and deduct sea freight and tariffs, how low will the price be sold? How can foreign goods compete?
If it is as expensive as foreign goods, how much money will it earn?
I'm afraid even if you mint money, it's not as fast as it can?
But the premise of all this is based on what Fernan said is true. What if he was bragging?
Seeing Zheng Xingqiao's doubts, Xu Xingquan smiled and continued, "If he was bragging, Dongfang Machinery Factory would only rely on a press to conquer the world, then we would not have to be afraid.
Foreigners are so fast to release new models. Today's machine, tomorrow's machine, let him imitate it! They are not the only one who is thinking about imitating machines. What are they afraid of?
That shop is my Xu family's property. You don't have to pay the rent. Just think it's empty for a year and the loss is not big."
After hearing what he said, Zheng Xingqiao felt much more relieved.
As long as it does not affect his financial path, everything will be easy to say.
"What a pity, Director Wang, who has been with me for twenty years!"
He sighed regretfully, feeling unwilling: "Those ruffians actually knew they were guilty of paying their lives, but they were willing to help him take the blame. I really don't know what kind of ecstasy he had poured into him."
Thinking of Fei Nan's strange floating sitting posture after coming in, Xu Xingquan couldn't help but shivered.
That guy was full of weirdness. If he didn't cooperate with him, God would know if he would be killed and hung at the door by him, and then he would just find a few rascals to blame him.
Such a strong man is not easy to mess with!
"Give him more funeral expenses and help him with a glorious funeral!"
Xu Xingquan persuaded: "Some of those thugs have already pleaded guilty, wait for the police station to be put down. Don't ask any more questions, so as not to cause trouble."
When Zheng Xingqiao heard this, he didn't know what he thought of, but couldn't help but tremble and nodded seriously.
...
Through psychological suggestion, they disintegrated their willingness to resist, strengthened their fear of death, and enhanced their enthusiasm for cooperation. Fernan began to enrich the product types of Oriental Machinery Factory.
After a week of seclusion in the hotel, he finally developed a new design drawing of equipment. Various equipment involved more than a dozen industries such as matches, enamel, silk reels, cotton spinning, silk weaving, cotton weaving, wool weaving, underwear, socks, flour, oil pressing, tobacco, papermaking, printing, etc.
After Bin Bucheng got the drawings, he felt like he had found a treasure and immediately went back to study them.
If this set of equipment can be made, I am afraid that the light industry level of the entire Shanghai and even the entire country can be improved to a higher level!
However, the problem of shortage of raw materials still exists, because the large-scale purchase of Oriental Machinery Factory has caused the price of finished imported steel on the market to rise by 10%.
Mr. Sun originally planned to join forces with members of the Machine Union to protest and force the comprador to lower the price.
However, Fenan said that it is not the time to use the power of the union. Too early confrontation with the comprador class will also damage the strength of the union and the confidence of the union members.
After finding time, Fernan asked Mr. Sun to visit the Xu family and met Mr. Xu.
The next thing was completely in the hands of Mr. Sun. He had much more face than Fernan. He had rich experience and had him dealing with the other party, Fernan was also happy to be worried.
On the other hand, Long Si's charity foundation has also been almost done.
Long Si was very smart. He even held a unique press conference at Sihai Casino without any instruction. He also created a ribbon-cutting ceremony, and invited many business owners and dignitaries to attend the ceremony together.
The King of Gambling in Shanghai actually became kind-hearted and wanted to do charity. This is a big news. Almost all reporters from Shanghai's newspapers and magazines came to the scene.
Because it was a charity, Xu Wenqiang passed the proposal after he made a proposal at the meeting of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau.
Moreover, many directors of the Department of Industry and Technology attended the event.
This is a rare opportunity to show your presence, and there is almost no risk. You can also gain a good reputation for supporting charity. Why not do it?
However, it doesn’t matter whether they come or not to Fernan. Fernan only cares about whether one person is present, that is Long Si’s precious apprentice, the current Inspector General, Mr. Li Yi.
He advised Long Si to start this charity fund, in addition to helping Shang Hai's poor children, to change Long Si's image in Li Yi's mind and repair their relationship.
Chapter completed!
