America’s Big Hero - v2 Chapter 403
The cold dinner party became the chill drink party.
The old-fashioned white really good half-sleeve shirt is holding a three-point beauty…
Between the friction of the arm, one hand must be in the pocket, tactical pressure gun!
Even if it is more private.
In the public eye, let people see it!
All of them walked on crutches, and Sean, who was standing beside Bi Zhengchun, tried his best to hold back his smile.
When Bi Zhengchun was chatting, his eyes were always watching Sean’s face, and he always felt that this guy actually knew everything, but he was deliberately watching everyone’s jokes!
If you don’t look at that obviously white face, you can’t help but think of him as a Chinese.
Of course, this is Morocco. Now Sean, who is in charge, Bi Zhengchun can only sigh helplessly, thinking that the blonde beauty holding his hand is a junior, but her daughter…
Daughter or something, why is it so awkward!
“Since the door of the country is opened for communication, it is certain that Western ideas will enter the mainland, and the impact will be unimaginable.” Sean was holding a wine glass, and Harry Berry in a swimsuit took his arm, “I know Now many people in the east are longing for the Western world, longing for the United States, and they are all rushing to go abroad, and most of them are young people.”
With that said, Sean raised his finger and pointed at the beauties, and then looked at Bi Zhengchun, “Do as the locals do. If you don’t want to become an outcast, then those girls who go abroad will become like this.”
“I call them easygirls!”
Bi Zhengchun’s face was ugly. He really had a daughter… Thinking about how his own daughter would become such an unethical appearance, smoke began to rise from Old Bi’s head.
Out of a fart country, and then shout out the leg discount!
Sean successfully shattered a woman’s dream of going abroad.
After chatting for a while, Bi Zhengchun still remembered the purpose of their visit, and gradually brought the topic back, “Sean, how do you think about sales, starting with official purchases?”
“Official purchase?” Sean felt that he heard it wrong. Official purchase of vans?
Go crazy!
“You don’t think that a product will be sought after after the official set an example, right?” Sean spread his hands with a smile.
“What’s good from above, what’s good from below.” Bi Zhengchun said as a matter of course.
“That’s right, the question is, who is this Shang?” Xiao En smiled and shook his head and said, “In the east, Shang is the official, this is because of the official-based culture in culture. The effect of official promotion is very good, but in capital Doctrine has never been official!”
Bi Zhengchun was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that their thinking had become inertial, and naturally used the East to apply the West, shook his head, and asked again: “Is it capital?”
“It’s a bit general.” Sean shook his head. “In the West, ‘上’ is very broad, the old-fashioned aristocracy, including various royal families, European aristocrats, and old-fashioned capitalists.”
“Others are emerging capital, political families, political upstarts.”
“It could also be an idea, a trend, a racial concept, . . . a lot.”
“The social structure of the West is more complex, and it is not like the East. There is only one concept, and everything is inferior, only being a high official.” Sean shrugged with a smile.
“Everything is inferior, only reading is high!” Bi Zhengchun corrected.
“That’s because reading can be an official, well, I’m not one of those foreigners who don’t understand anything.” Sean reached out and patted Bi Zhengchun’s shoulder, “It’s better to sell tea eggs to build missiles, then it’s not reading books to build missiles. ?”
“Yes, I’m not studying, it’s just a craft, like a master craftsman in ancient times, no matter how ingenious he is, it’s just a strange skill in the end, and he can’t be an official, so it’s natural for him to be better than a tea egg seller. .”
Bi Zhengchun’s face was a little dark, and Sean shrugged, “Okay, let’s not talk about these concepts, let’s talk about business. If you can come to Morocco again, then you are sure to form a joint venture company.”
“Yes, you are a Dongfangtong, and I will not hide it from you.” Bi Zhengchun nodded, “We also have some companies abroad, but they are all aid and have political significance, and this time with Sean, you Cooperation is purely commercial behavior, and everything is based on commercial standards.”
“Crossing the river by feeling the stones.” Sean nodded, “Then let’s do business, and I’ll tell you the requirements.”
“The initial step is to set up a company to carry out a new sales model, AutomobileSalesServiceShop4S, which is a four-in-one car sales company integrating vehicle sales, spare parts, after-sales service and information feedback.”
“I call it a 4S shop.”
“Four Sons Store?” Bi Zhengchun repeated, “It’s really a brand new model, we have no problem.”
“Okay, let’s talk about the share ratio, what are your requirements?”
“The new sales model is based on a learning attitude. What we pursue is not the controlling stake, but how much experience we can gain. Therefore, the shares are mainly based on you. How about a 4:6 ratio?” Bi Zhengchun said with a smile.
Sean smiled and shook his head, “The market is mine, the channels are mine, the business philosophy is mine, and I have no shortage of funds, I just need to simply import cars from Hafei, so give me a 4 The reason for becoming a stake.”
“Uh…” Bi Zhengchun was a little embarrassed, Westerners were too direct!
“Then how much did you say?”
“I give you 20% because of friendship. This is an expression of goodwill, not because I have needs in this regard. Suzuki’s shareholders include GM, and GM’s shareholders include Rockefeller. Whether it’s technology or production lines, I think If it’s all a matter of one sentence.” Sean pointed out directly, of course, things are definitely not so simple.
Bi Zhengchun lowered his head and pondered a little, the tone set before coming was that cooperation must be facilitated, even if it was a loss.
To suffer is to take advantage. For Dongfang, this is a brand new attempt. Whether it succeeds or fails, it will learn some experience. For state-owned enterprises, making money has never been the most important thing, serving the country and the collective.
so……
“Thank you very much for Mr. Sean’s help. He has always said that you are an old friend of the Chinese people, and the Chinese people will not forget you.” Bi Zhengchun said solemnly.
“I hope so.” Sean replied with a smile.
“Speaking of help, we have a small request, that is, can we increase the proportion of Chinese personnel in the company’s personnel composition?”
“Haha, how much is appropriate.” Sean doesn’t care too much about this, the Chinese are also very good, smart, hard-working, obedient, and don’t make trouble when working overtime.
“As many as possible, they are considered as trainees from the Chinese side, and the Chinese side is responsible for the salary.”
“I understand that the necessary local people are still needed. I will try my best to help you. The middle and lower level of the company should be about 70%.” Sean seems to have made up his mind.
Bi Zhengchun seemed very happy, and everyone agreed that this aspect was more important than the number of shares they held.
“On the upper floors…?”
“This can’t be done. Eastern management philosophies are not applicable to Western societies. For the normal operation of the company, up to 30% of the top management can hire Chinese personnel.” Sean shook his head. It’s a real headache.
“As for the distinction in salary, I don’t think it’s very good. It seems that I discriminate against Chinese personnel.”
“No no no.” Bi Zhengchun shook his head quickly, “You don’t have to worry about this, we will pay for the salary.”
“Am I short of money?” Sean looked dissatisfied.
“It’s not about money, Mr. Sean, if it really follows your salary system, it will hurt us.” Bi Zhengchun said with a serious look: “Now the domestic salary is around 400 a year, Temporary workers are around 230 yuan. If the wages of these people who go abroad to work are really calculated according to your standards, more than 1,000 US dollars a year, what does this make of the workers who still stay in domestic factories?”
Sean blinked. The salary of the American staff is at least more than 1,000 a month, not a year.
“We are a developing country, and cheap labor is our advantage. It is this advantage that keeps our products sufficiently competitive. The wages of workers are high, so how can we ensure the profits of state-owned enterprises?”
“It’s going to break the wage structure and it hurts a lot.”
Raising the wages of workers is a harm to the company. After summing up, Sean swallowed his saliva and nodded his head with a big affirmation written on his face, “You are so right, you have a deep understanding!”
No capitalist dares to be so whimsical, this realization is simply fantastic!
“The U.S. has raised workers’ wages excessively, leading to a massive exodus of manufacturing, poor employment environment, high unemployment, chaotic public security, and social instability!” Sean sighed with emotion as he grabbed Bi Zhengchun’s hand. It’s terrible, you must learn a lesson and resolutely keep the wage increase for workers unchanged for 100 years!”
“Is work just to make money? Narrow!” Sean’s words were powerful, “Work overtime for the rise of China!”
Bi Zhengchun blinked, this sounds very mainstream, but I don’t know why, I always feel that something is wrong?
“Just according to your requirements, I will work with you. Of course, after all, I work for our company, and we still pay the salary, um, soft sister coins, which are paid directly in China.” Sean said along the line: “As for Morocco. During the period, I will arrange staff dormitories and canteens, and I will also cooperate with local medical institutions in medical treatment, so as to absolutely solve all the worries of Chinese personnel who come to work in Morocco!”
As far as this salary system is concerned, Sean feels that it is actually good to hire all Chinese personnel.
It’s really not that his capitalist habit is attacking, Dongfang’s own experts have said so, what else can Sean do?
He is just a capitalist, what kind of bad thoughts can he have?
The share ratio has been discussed, the employment and wage system have been discussed, and the rest is the price of imported vehicles.
“We all agree on the price, 35,000 RMB.” Bi Zhengchun looked calm, but glanced at Sean secretly.
“Gift Crab?” Shawn’s face was full of shock, “You’re kidding me, I bought this junk for $11,600, and that’s not counting import duties, investment costs, labor costs, and profits for the Fourth Son Store, so am I right? Selling for $15,000 to start?”
“Moroccans go crazy for $15,000 for this stuff?”
“Uh… I said it smoothly, that’s the domestic price.” Bi Zhengchun’s face was a little embarrassed, 35,000 is the unified domestic sales price.
With a salary of more than 30 yuan a month, it is strange that the car can be sold for 35,000.
“Well, our domestic prices are generally higher than the export prices.” Bi Zhengchun added, “Exports have tax rebates.”
Sean pouted, he didn’t need to tell him this kind of prevarication to the common people.
During this period, the price of internal products was higher than that of foreign countries, and it was much higher. It was not a tax issue.
In the 1980s, smuggling was rampant, Panyu, Nansha, Wenzhou, Weihai…
From TVs, washing machines, tape recorders to small watches and sunglasses, you can get a lot of goods directly abroad at normal prices and ship them to the east for wholesale.
If you buy goods from these places, you can make a lot of money when you get them back into the market, which is still cheaper than similar domestic products from supply and marketing cooperatives.
The labor cost is more than 30 times lower than that of the book, and the price is 1-3 times more expensive than the original foreign product when all aspects of the product are more than 30 times lower.
“You know, I don’t know anything about the East, but I actually don’t understand why the final product is so expensive when your labor costs are dozens of times lower?” Sean asked curiously. : “And on the basis of such high profits, why are many factories still losing money?”
“Uh… We are a state-owned enterprise, and we have to pay the wages of retired workers.” Bi Zhengchun didn’t know how to explain it to Sean, and he was very vague.
“That’s not right. This is at most doubling the labor cost, but you guys are dozens of times lower than us.” Sean shook his head, I know that one plus one equals two, you can’t fool me!
“Uh, there are still many benefits, meals are cheap, and medical care is reimbursed, um, yes, that’s it.” Bi Zhengchun nodded stiffly.
Sean pouted, it’s not that he didn’t know the medical level and standard of living.
It is enough to ask here, and to ask again is to shorten it.
In fact, many times after a few decades, the topic of shopping cannot be avoided when going abroad. Well, it is shopping like sweeping goods. Not only luxury goods, but many products are also cheaper than domestic ones.
For example, pure original cars are also cheaper abroad, much cheaper, because of the high import tax, the purpose is to protect car companies…
The market changes technology, the market is given, but the technology does not develop at all.
You can make money with protection, so why invest large sums of money to improve technology?
It’s not good to have money to do something, to invest in research and not know if the technology can be researched, do you have a disease?
Can you wait, can’t you wait for others to study it and use it?
Don’t talk about using someone else’s patent, the cost is high.
Whose patents are not blown by the wind, they are all researched from scratch with a lot of real money, who has no cost?
Did someone hold your hand and stop you from studying?
Not to mention that the computer system has no installed platform, and there is no supporting software, and it is useless to study it.
This kind of difficulty has been talked about long ago. Before Hongmeng was installed, it was only running in the laboratory. Isn’t that money?
(ˉ▽ ̄~)Cut~~
Closer to home, anyway, 35,000 soft sister Coin Sean will definitely not do it.
“I need a reasonable price.” Sean said blankly.
“30,000?” Bi Zhengqing said tentatively, saying that it doesn’t matter if he makes money or not, but, as everyone knows, Sean is very generous.
Sean squinted, too lazy to speak.
“2.8?”
“$3,800, CIF, I can’t accept it.” Sean gave a price, which he calculated after investigation.
And left some profit points for Hafei.
If he is cruel, he can completely compress it to 3,000 US dollars. He is sure that Hafei will endure it as well, and it is better to export and earn foreign exchange than anything else.
Due to some special reasons, except for some parts that need to be imported, a small part of the parts are purchased locally, and the rest of Hafei is all self-produced!
They even have their own power plants, with their own hydraulic forging machines, electronic manufacturing, including glass production lines, and can produce as little as a screw.
However, these factories have greatly increased the cost due to insufficient operation.
If the procurement channels are opened up and market competition is introduced, the cost can be reduced to less than $2,500 according to the current wage level.
This price is already lower than Hafei’s own bottom line. Of course, there is still a certain distance from the bottom line given by the Ministry of Industry. Bi Zhengqing did not agree on the spot.
As soon as he came up, he was haggled by more than half of the price, and he promised on the spot that there would be ghosts.
It’s all right here. Business negotiations, no matter how fast they are, can’t be done in one reception. Especially the Chinese side, we need to listen to everyone’s opinions.
At this moment, the cruise ship has gone a long way. After a period of familiarity, coupled with the language barrier, many people are not so cautious at the beginning.
Anyway, these women can’t understand what they say.
Sean raised his hand and made a gesture, and immediately a band came out and started to play, relatively soothing piano music, the atmosphere should be stirred slowly, and it would be too hot to scare these guys.
“Ladies, move up and entertain our guests.” Sean shouted in French.
Immediately, the beauties began to post it and dance.
Singing and dancing, the beauties who kept interspersed in the crowd brought glasses of wine.
Cocktails, whiskeys, wines, liqueurs…
Mixed together, time passed little by little, from restraint to relaxation, from sober to intoxicated, from serious face to relaxed laughter, from slow three to keep a distance to veneer with body twist…
The music is matched with the lights, the wine is matched with the beauty, and the atmosphere is gradually turbulent.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! ! !
Sean didn’t plan to go back and was going to spend the night at sea today.
Use this to test your cadres!
What an evil devil!
The cruise ship was borrowed by the Moroccan royal family. In addition to various entertainment facilities, there are a total of 12 rooms up and down. The distance between each other is relatively long when designed, plus the top-level sound insulation design.
So much fun!
One night, the spring breeze blows the earth, looking for a fairy in the peach blossom…
When I woke up again, the boat had reached the shore.
Two days later, there was news from Bi Zhengqing that the share ratio was 2:8, the staffing was 70%-30%, three models, the CIF price was 3800-4150 US dollars, and the Chinese side was responsible for the transportation.
Sean will send a lawyer to negotiate with them for specific details.
In fact, this 80% share is not taken by Sean, and the other investor is Morocco Investment Group.
The investment group put out 2.8 million US dollars, and the top eight cities in Morocco put out a total of 14 plots, accounting for a total of 35% of the company’s shares.
Sean holds 25% of the shares in the investment group, spending nothing from start to finish, accounting for more than half of the new company’s total shares.
Perfect!
In fact, 14 cars are not worth much, and they are not in the city center. Sean’s positioning of several cars is in the countryside, the urban-rural border, the self-employed households in the city, the gang…
Cough, it seems that something strange is mixed in.
However, the van is really suitable for gangsters. It has a large throughput per unit time, and can release the maximum attack power. In addition, the price is cheap, and it is not distressing to be detained. The injured can lie down at the critical moment, which is convenient for sending to the doctor.
Perfect!
Leaving the construction problems of the Fourth Son store, publicity and promotion, and advertising shooting tasks to the investment group, Sean turned his head and went to Libya again.
The cargo ship that sent planes and weapons from the east arrived, and Sean was to be present for the first reception.
To Sean’s regret, no one robbed him, which was disappointing.
There are also a large number of Chinese staff.
Rockets, recoilless guns, etc. are all purchased through regular channels according to civilian parts.
It needs professionals to assemble it here. Sean does not expect Mr. Card, nor does he expect to recruit people from Libya to assemble.
He would rather hire Chinese personnel for a short period of time, not to mention that the Libyan salary is too high, and the work attitude and assembly accuracy are also worrying.
I’m used to it!
After a short stay of three days, after completing the handover task, Sean left everything and took off again to return to the United States.
The personnel manager needed by the umbrella has finally been found, and Sean wants to go back and have a look!
…
Van Wyek, former Marine Corps member, retired at the age of 38, with the rank of major.
His father is a lawyer, his uncle is a city councilman, and his grandfather used to be in politics. His family is well-off. After retiring, he entered the school again and obtained a double bachelor’s degree in law and administration from Columbia University.
After graduation, he is engaged in administrative management, and transferred to human resources management position after 3 years. He is 53 years old and has rich management experience.
When Sean met people, his first impression was very good. His silver hair was meticulously combed, his waist was straight, he was wearing an ordinary military uniform, he had a gentle smile on his face, and his hands were generous and powerful.
As for management matters, Sean didn’t ask a word, and he asked for nothing, but he didn’t understand.
Sean is concerned about his family, the relationship with family members~www.mtlnovel.com~ children’s situation, political orientation.
Those who have family are in awe…
Ahem, of course, Sean didn’t plan to threaten him with his family.
Serious company!
“Who do you think will win the next term?” Inside the Umbrella Military Base in Newark, while shooting a target, Sean chatted with Van Wyck.
“The Elephant Party, our whole family are staunch supporters of the Elephant Party!” Van Week said affirmatively.
We talked about the Elephant Party, the situation in Southeast Asia, the situation in the Middle East, war, peace… Overall, Sean was quite satisfied.
The appearance of the head of the personnel department means that the reorganization plan of the umbrella can be officially launched.
Before that, though, Sean still has a few things to deal with soon.
That is to cut the protective umbrella, and those old team members who cannot see the light will be independent.
