Chapter 392 The Unpredictable Prophet(4/4)
He shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile: "Do you know the purpose of my father giving me this yacht?"
"It's actually a helpless move!"
He sighed deeply and nodded: "If it weren't for the pressure of competition, why would I come all the way to Asia to develop and cooperate with you, right?"
"Haha, there are pros and cons."
Li Xuewu smiled and said: "Intense competition means the speed of technological update and iteration is accelerating. Whoever masters advanced technology first will make the first profit."
“That’s it”
Andrew nodded, pointed at the machine shop and said, "I wouldn't dare to build a workshop as big as yours. It's too wasteful."
He turned back to look at his yacht and said: "Our shipyard spends more money on technology research and development and leading advantages."
"So, you're going to take another path, right?"
Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and said: "With our not-so-leading technological advantages, we will seek ultra-low-cost manufacturing processes and opportunities to explore the sales space of yachts."
"Hahaha!"
Andrew didn't care at all about Li Xuewu's words, smiled and nodded: "This is also the basis for me to discuss cooperation with you!"
"That's right!"
Li Xuewu also smiled and said: "We need technology, we need orders, and we need this job. This is a win-win situation for us!"
"I like this idea of yours!"
Andrew nodded to Li Xuewu and said with a smile: "I have never seen many young people with your kind of thinking ability, as well as pioneering and enterprising advanced management."
"You're honored~"
Li Xuewu smiled and shook his head and said: "In our place, I can catch a lot of them everywhere."
"Hahaha!"
Andrew obviously didn't believe Li Xuewu's words. He knew that Chinese people like to be self-effacing and don't like to express themselves very much.
Although he didn't have contact with Li Xuewu for a long time or many times, he was still very accurate in judging people.
Rather than saying that he was investing in Yingcheng Shipyard, it would be better to say that he was investing in Li Xuewu.
He looked at the sea in the distance and said with emotion: "Now we are only building small yachts, but in the future there will be big yachts."
"Just like my boat"
Andrew smiled and pointed at his yacht to Li Xuewu, and the meaning in his words was even heard by the accompanying cadres behind him.
Li Xuewu and Xu Sinian stood here to accompany the Italians, blowing the sea breeze, bragging, and playing tricks. The purpose could be as impure as possible.
And this old man from Italy was able to travel across the ocean to Asia to make a career in the world. He was no fool at all. His answers were impeccable and he even pointed out Li Xuewu's little idea of stealing his skills from his master.
Li Xuewu didn't care, just like Andrew didn't care about what he saw.
"Can you tell us about the ship manufacturing situation in the port city?"
He smiled and signaled to Xu Sinian and others: "We who stay at home still want to know about the outside world, including Guishao and Nanhan across the street."
"..."
Come on! This is not just about stealing the skills from a master, but also harboring evil intentions, wanting to starve the master to death after learning!
------------------
When we came back after watching the scene, it was already dark, and everyone was hissing in the sea breeze.
But the atmosphere of the debate among the engineering team was still very lively, as if they were not cold.
Before dinner, a discussion meeting was arranged at the shipyard to facilitate all parties to express their opinions.
As soon as the meeting began, the engineer representatives from both sides began to speak actively, which was necessary to create a more favorable advantage for the subsequent business negotiations.
The initial debate was mainly about the choice of dock and the investment in technical equipment.
The opinion given by Yingcheng Shipyard is that the request made by the other party is too excessive!
The project department has independent personnel management, independent material management, and independent equipment management. Doesn’t this mean selling the factory?
Deputy Chief Engineer Zhao Hongtu means that such management methods will cause a waste of technical equipment and manpower.
We should make overall plans and coordinate all forces from the perspective of Yingcheng Shipyard.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The explanation given by Geely Star is that the independent project department needs independent rights because it is worried that the shipyard will threaten them with these conditions in the later stages of the cooperation.
Even if the shipyard does not take the initiative to threaten it, if it encounters an emergency or force majeure and refuses to provide construction power, wouldn't they lose money?
Starting from this issue, the two sides gradually expanded their focus from shipbuilding technology to all aspects of the issue. The key point was to dig out step by step and calculate step by step. No one planned to let the other go.
This thing is just like fighting and negotiating. Fighting is for better negotiation, so the harder you fight, the easier it is to negotiate.
Do you think Li Xuewu and Andrew have any intention of getting involved or reconciling?
It's not harmful to the body to argue. Isn't that what you spend money on to support people?
Xu Sinian was cunning and cunning, and he waited until the issue was almost noisy before he stepped forward to be the peacemaker and said that dinner was ready and he would eat first and then talk about this after dinner.
The engineers at Yingcheng Shipyard are still a little indignant, but look at the engineers at Geely Star Shipyard.
Just after the meeting was dismissed, these guys immediately dropped their hateful faces and kept showing kindness to the shipyard's reception.
This confuses the people at the shipyard, and they don't know what kind of trick the other party is playing.
It was Xu Sinian who explained in private that everyone works for capitalists, work is work, and life is life.
The salary is just that much, so I don't have to worry about everything at work, and I don't have to worry about life.
This can't help but make Zhao Hongtu and others who have been tit for tat feel discouraged and feel that the argument just now is more like a farce.
They are all working part-time, so why are they competing?
Today's dinner was still very sumptuous. The delicacies were not too overwhelming, but still had a unique flavor.
Because the sea breeze had blown all afternoon and we had been arguing all afternoon, everyone was tired.
Especially the three of them, Liu Shaozong, felt angry at noon and had not eaten enough. They were hungry all afternoon, and they had to make up for it with this meal in the evening.
None of them realized that the food in the shipyard was so good.
Maybe it was evening and there was no official business, so liquor appeared on the table.
Li Xuewu tentatively invited Andrew, who quite liked liquor.
Seeing that he was willing to drink, the atmosphere at the table became heated. A waiter started pouring wine. Everyone's faces became rosy and they could talk freely.
Andrew took the initiative to share the wine culture he encountered in Hong Kong City at the dinner table, saying that the people there are more particular and have begun to study the characteristics of the wine table that combines Chinese and Western styles.
Just as everyone at the table was listening to Coke, several accompanying secretaries suddenly walked in, and the joyful atmosphere was interrupted.
Peng Xiaoli, like the secretary to several others, walked behind Li Xuewu and whispered in his ear: "Leader, something happened in the Magic City..."
While Peng Xiaoli was reporting, Xu Sinian, Liu Shaozong, Gao Yaqin, Zhou Gancheng and others all raised their heads and looked at Li Xuewu in stunned silence.
According to the secretary's report, hundreds of thousands of people were involved in this turmoil. Judging from the news that just came through, this turmoil will definitely not stop at the Magic City.
Previously, the big study activities were very gentle, even if they were a bit intense, they were still under control.
But now it has suddenly developed in an intense and uncertain direction. What the future will bring is uncertain.
Liu Shaozong and the three people sitting across from them were numb. They didn't know why such a big thing happened.
