Chapter 294 The question of earning more and earning less
In the office, after listening to Zhao Guoyang's narration, Ma Jian said indifferently: "Guoyang, can you just let go? Can you think carefully and help me solve my problems, I'm not too happy."
Ma Jian thought about it and said, "If we can really negotiate a cooperation with Shagang Group, the production cost in our factory will definitely be reduced by a lot. This is a great achievement."
"By the way, Guoyang, if you go this time, you are talking about business. I think it's better to arrange a car. This way, it will look like it!"
Ma Jian's words made sense. Zhao Guoyang nodded in agreement after hearing this and said, "Well, I didn't expect this point that Director Ma mentioned. Indeed, it should be more convincing to drive over by ourselves."
Ma Jian seemed to have thought of something, so he looked up at Zhao Guoyang and said, "Guoyang, last time I heard from Director Mu that your driver's license has been issued, right? Otherwise, you can drive by yourself this time. It is more convenient to leave back like this."
"Uh, that's fine. You can just give the driver some rest. After all, it's a business trip on weekends. If someone has something to do, they have to complain."
Zhao Guoyang hesitated for a moment and said, "However, I'm afraid I'll ask Director Mu for instructions on this matter?"
"No need to run around anymore. I'll tell you later. You, go back to the office and prepare well. Shagang Group is a star enterprise in our Jiangnan Province. Guoyang must be stable!"
Zhao Guoyang understood the meaning of Ma Jian's words as soon as he heard it.
This person probably has been treated coldly by some large companies and is worried that he is young and energetic, so he will compete with others if he disagrees.
"Don't worry, Director Ma, I have a clear idea." Zhao Guoyang said distractedly.
"Well, of course I feel relieved when you do things. I will leave the car business to me. Let me take my car keys to you to the office."
Zhao Guoyang thanked Director Ma, and then he walked back to his office slowly.
After sitting in the office for a while, the phone rang.
After Zhao Guoyang connected, a familiar Germanic language came from inside: "Hello, is it Zhao Guoyang, Mr. Zhao?"
"Yes, yes, I am Zhao Guoyang, who are you?" Zhao Guoyang asked.
"Haha, I'm Carlson from Volkswagen Latin America! Did Mr. Zhao forget?" The voice on the phone smiled with a self-deprecating smile.
"Oh, sorry, Mr. Carlson. How could I forget your voice? It was just that after the phone sound turned, it was a little distorted." Zhao Guoyang explained.
After some greetings, Carlson explained his purpose.
"Mr. Zhao, we have already transferred the patent usage fee to your account, you can check it out." Carlson said.
Zhao Guoyang did not expect that the Volkswagen Latin American company was so efficient. He said happily: "Okay, Mr. Carlson, I will call the bank later to check it out. When there is a result, I will notify you again!"
"It's okay, as long as you confirm that the money has been made, it doesn't matter whether you call this or not." Carlson was not worried about sending the wrong account.
"Ah, by the way, Mr. Zhao, there's something else."
After a few greetings, Carlson suddenly said, "Mr. Wolf from our Volkswagen Headquarters wants to fly to you China to meet you. I wonder if you have any time in the near future? Or if you are willing to?"
When Zhao Guoyang heard the three words "Wolf", he understood that this must be the number one figure in the headquarters of Volkswagen Group.
After considering it, Zhao Guoyang replied: "It is also my honor to meet Mr. Wolf. Well, but I may be busy in the past one or two weeks. Why don't I wait for April? Do you think Mr. Wolf's time will be a coincidence?"
"No problem, as long as Mr. Zhao is willing to meet Mr. Wolf. As for time, let's negotiate..."
Carlson didn't know anything. After chatting with Zhao Guoyang for a while, he hung up the phone.
After putting down the phone, Zhao Guoyang found a phone call from his notebook and dialed it.
The number that Zhao Guoyang dialed was the phone number reserved for him by Standard Chartered Bank.
After the phone was called, a clear voice from the service staff soon came.
Zhao Guoyang reported his account information, and after passing the confirmation from the service staff, he immediately obtained the deposit information.
"Mr. Zhao, your deposit at Standard Chartered Bank is 5 million US dollars in total..." The service lady was somewhat shocked, but it was better to cover it up and not easy to be discovered.
When Zhao Guoyang heard that the money had arrived, he no longer hesitated and directly expressed his request.
"Well, please transfer three million to the account I opened the phone transfer. The account name is Susanna and the number is..."
After some explanation, the service lady of Standard Chartered Bank had transferred the money to Susanna's account as Zhao Guoyang told him.
"Mr. Zhao, do you have any other requirements?" After finishing it, the service lady asked in a respectful voice.
"It's not there for the time being. If you have any further problems, I will call you again. Thank you!" Zhao Guoyang said politely.
"Mr. Zhao is so polite. It is my honor to be able to serve you! I wish you a happy life, goodbye!" The service lady smiled sweetly and hung up the phone.
The funds invested in the mine have arrived, so Zhao Guoyang naturally wants to inform Susanna.
Calculate the time, Susanna shouldn't have fallen asleep yet. Zhao Guoyang thought about it and started a long-distance abroad.
After waiting for a while, the phone was connected and Susanna's voice came over.
"Hey, is it Zhao?" Susanna asked with some joy.
Zhao Guoyang responded and asked in confusion: "Miss Susanna, do you know so much that it is mine?"
"Hehe, it's already past one o'clock at night. Who would call me except you, except for you?" Susanna said with a little teasing.
"Sorry, Susanna. Have you disturbed your rest?" Zhao Guoyang said embarrassedly.
"Oh, no, no, I just finished the shower and haven't fallen asleep yet." Susanna chuckled.
"By the way, calling me so late must be something important, right?"
"Well, that's right. Volkswagen Latin America has transferred money to me. I just transferred three million US dollars to your account. You can check it back." Zhao Guoyang said straight to the point.
"Ah? So fast! Okay, I'll call and ask now, wait for me to call back!" Susanna said hurriedly.
Within five minutes after Zhao Guoyang put down the phone, the ringtone rang again. When he picked it up, he heard it. It was Susanna's.
"Zhao, the money has really arrived!"
Susanna said happily: "With this money, our company can buy the niobium tantalum ore immediately."
Zhao Guoyang said "Hmm" and said, "Susanna, you must do the transfer of the mine as soon as possible. I will find a way to solve the subsequent mining funds. The gap should not be big, right?"
After hearing Zhao Guoyang's question, Susanna explained: "Don't worry, Zhao. With your money injected, our niobium tantalum ore will be able to rotate soon."
"Even if you cannot develop on a large scale all at once, the basic amount can still be guaranteed. In fact, the most important question now is who to sell the mined ore to..."
Zhao Guoyang was prepared for Susanna's doubts, and he spoke confidently: "Susanna, after the niobium tantalum ore is mined, just leave the sales issues to me."
"In just one or two days, I will go to a large steel plant here to discuss cooperation. If nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely need to purchase niobium tantalum ore."
"Oh, that's great! As long as there is sales, our business will definitely make a profit without losing money!" Susanna said happily.
Zhao Guoyang was infected by Susanna's emotions and said with a smile: "It is certain to make money by purchasing this niobium tantalum ore, but it is just a matter of how much you make."
"By the way, Zhao, after I took down the niobium tantalum ore, I want to go to China to find you. Let's sit down and have a good talk about the future development of our trading company. What do you think?"
"Of course there is no problem with this. Just come here. At that time, I will take you to have a good appreciation of the ancient civilization and traditional culture of our China."
"Then let's just say that, you don't let it go!" Susanna said coquettishly.
Zhao Guoyang leaned his body on the chair and said laughingly: "Miss Susanna, when will the words I said not count? Oh, by the way, when you come here, bring something if you are convenient..."
Zhao Guoyang talked about some of the things he needed, and it was not finished until Susanna wrote down everything.
After the phone call with Susanna ended, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but remember the previous agreement with Mayor Huang.
After he was sure that he could get a huge patent fee of several million, he talked with Huang Zhigang that he would transfer the money to the Songjiang Municipal Finance Bureau through the trading company he established and directly exchanged it into RMB.
The price on the black market of US dollar to RMB is now much higher than the international exchange rate of 8.5.
Zhao Guoyang's approach undoubtedly made Songjiang City take a lot of advantage.
As the top leader of the Songjiang City government, Mayor Huang naturally would not let him suffer any losses, but he promised him a lot of benefits.
For example, he would reduce and exempt his trading company from three years of taxes, and at the same time, he would transfer a piece of land in Puxi New District to him at a low price in the future, etc.
In other words, Zhao Guoyang's small move not only helped Songjiang City win a foreign exchange, but also facilitated some of his subsequent economic activities in China.
Of course, Zhao Guoyang has not yet decided how much US dollars to transfer to Songjiang City first. After all, the amount of money needed in China is far less than that abroad.
"By the way, aren't you going to Shagang Group tomorrow? If they make sure they want niobium tantalum ore, then my trading company will charge them some freight fees, right?"
