Chapter 269 Tigers have no power

Since the late 1980s, Japan's domestic economy began to weaken and the traditional industrial market shrank.

Although Fuji Iron Manufacturing is the fifth largest steel company in Japan, due to its lag in overseas industrial layout, it faces greater survival pressure in Japan. It intends to merge with Yamahara Iron Manufacturing and Hachizaki Metallurgy, which ranks seventh and eleventh, to form a super-large steel group that can enter the top three in Japan.

It is precisely because of the lag in the overseas industrial layout, which makes its production capacity much larger than Yamahara iron, but when conducting joint intention negotiations, this becomes a fatal weakness of Fuji iron making the Yamahara iron making and suppressing Yamahara iron and falling into a passive and fatal weakness.

The senior management of Fuji Railway Corporation had to suspend merger negotiations, but they knew that union was the general trend, so they could only decide to promote the speed of industrial investment in China and strive to quickly form overseas production capacity in two or three years. However, starting joint negotiations in Japan may be able to gain a dominant position.

Chinese steel companies, with Yanjing Steel and Zhongyuan Steel as the leader, have a considerable level in scale and management. However, China's major steel companies have long had long-term cooperative relations with Japan's top Japanese Steel and Sumitomo Metallurgy, which are ranked high in Japan, and it is difficult for Fuji Iron to squeeze in.

Fuji iron making, which has only been determined to expand the Chinese market on a large scale in recent years, has actually had quite limited choices.

Among the targets of Fuji Ironmaking for nearly a year, Meigang is very inconspicuous in terms of scale. In China, it can only be called third- and fourth-tier steel companies. However, Meigang, which can only be considered third- and fourth-tier steel companies in terms of scale, has made the industrial layout along the Zhujiang port line, but the senior management of Fuji Ironmaking is illuminated.

The terminal with the largest capacity of 10,000-ton bulk cargo ships will be completed and put into use by the end of the year, and the central waterway resources of Zhujiangkou have the potential to build a freight terminal of 30,000 ton; at the same time, the thermal power plant with an installed capacity of 100,000 kilowatts in the first phase is also under construction; Meixi Town reserves more than 5,000 acres of land for Meigang to expand south to the Zhujiang River, and the demolition work has begun. In these three points alone, as long as Fuji Iron can take the initiative, it takes less than two years to build an electric furnace steel production base with an annual output of 3 million tons on the north bank of Zhujiangkou.

For Fuji Iron, which had an annual production capacity of 7 million tons at this time, as long as Mei Steel is captured, it will undoubtedly be able to firmly grasp the initiative by forming three million tons of overseas production capacity in two years, and then starting domestic merger negotiations in Japan.

If Meigang cannot be captured, Fuji Iron Manufacturing will cooperate with other Chinese steel companies and build large steelmaking bases in the Jiangkou and coastal port areas. Even if technology and capital are not a problem, the preliminary site selection, survey and project review of the entire project will take one year or even longer; the next step of land demolition, leveling and road infrastructure construction will take almost another one or even longer - for Fuji Iron Manufacturing, the most lacking time is time.

When Fuji Ironmaking re-evaluated its partners in China a month ago, Meigang stood out because of these dazzling advantages. Further information collection confirmed that Meigang's management and technical team level was much higher than expected. Nobuo Yamazaki came here this time almost with the mission of conquering Meigang.

Nobuo Yamazaki has a deep study of China and knows the degree of desire for foreign exchange funds by Chinese local governments and the degree of control over enterprises by Chinese local governments. He believes that as long as Fuji Iron makes appropriate concessions, there is no need to worry about not reaching a joint venture project.

In the collected information, it was mentioned that Mei Gang's current leader Chen Huai is a young man who is only 25 years old and also serves as the Party Secretary of Meixi Town. Everything is in line with the characteristics of China.

Even if I saw the information introduction and saw Chen Huai standing in front of me, Nobuo Yamazaki was still surprised by the young man in front of me, and couldn't help but talk to the people around me in Japanese: "The Chinese local government has really strong control over enterprises, so it's not no wonder that Chinese enterprises cannot develop..."

Chen Huai could understand Japanese, and even looked down on the disdain and even contempt that Yamazaki Nobuo's speeches were revealed, and just listened quietly.

Fuji Ironmaking has really increased the negotiation specifications this time.

In the previous few contacts, there were only three or five negotiators and translators of Fuji Iron. Rather than talking about the negotiation, not to mention intelligence collection, Donghua also mobilized many troops every time, and treated it as a high-standard reception. This time, the negotiators dispatched by Fuji Iron were not only a heavyweight figure like Yamazaki Nobuo, and there were as many as twelve entourages including the translator. Miss Matsushima, the female secretary who followed Yamazaki Nobuo, was a beautiful Japanese girl with a look that was not much worse than Zhou Yu, but looking at her appearance, she seemed to have the gentleness of a Japanese woman. She was also a translator for Yamazaki Nobuo's trip. She spoke fluent Chinese, which was quite eye-catching.

Perhaps hearing Nobuo Yamazaki's words, Miss Matsushima glanced at this side, and Chen Huai pretended to be stupid and asked, "What's the matter with Mr. Yamazaki?"

"Yamazaki Jun said that Mr. Chen is young but can manage first-class steel enterprises in China, which is very powerful." Miss Matsushima said with her body owed her body. Seeing that Chen Huai was about to come, she showed an embarrassing and embarrassed look.

Chen Huai said to Nobuo Yamazaki with a naive look on his face and said, "Thanks to Mr. Yamazaki's praise!"

Miss Matsushima didn't say anything, but there were a few ounces of meat on her face next to her. Oda Yuichi, who was the deputy director of the overseas production and research office of Fuji Ironmaking, looked contemptuous and smiled at Nobuo Yamazaki in Japanese: "This idiot thinks Yamazaki, you praise him; if you deal with such a idiot, there shouldn't be too big a problem this time."

Nobuo Yamazaki nodded and smiled at Chen Huai without any trace.

Tan Qiping and others couldn't understand Japanese, so they just thought that Nobuo Yamazaki and Chen Huai were having a cordial conversation, and did not call the Japanese translator of the City Steel Factory to come.

Among the people who received Yamazaki Nobuo today, Chen Huai and Zhou Yu had the lowest level.

Although Tan Qiping had long emphasized that Chen Huai wanted to play the lead role tonight, Chen Huai could not have a particularly high interest in the face of the arrogant little Japanese in his bones, so he followed everyone honestly according to the level.

When he walked into the VIP room, Chen Huai also wanted to accompany the last seat, take off the windbreaker outside and fold it on the back of the chair.

However, Nobuo Yamazaki's attention was still on Shen Huai. Seeing him take off his windbreaker and reveal the suit inside, he said in surprise to Oda Yuichi, who was with him and the shadow, "This Chen Huai does not look like a clean official. It seems that negotiations are easier than imagined. If you really can take down Meigang and build an electric furnace steel base for Fuji Iron to build an overseas electric furnace steel base, your and my tasks will be explained to the Yamazaki family..."

Chen Huai narrowed his eyes slightly. He usually used to wearing jackets or work clothes. Today, he mainly wanted to accompany Song Hongjun. In the afternoon, he sent Song Hongjun to Donghua. He had no plans to go to the factory, so he had a rare opportunity to wear a suit. This suit was also the one he "had" returned to China to manage the pre-government. One set was worth several thousand dollars, and it was indeed not something a clean official should wear on him.

The reception dinner was led by Tan Qiping; however, Tan Qiping should no longer participate in the specific negotiations, but Meigang and the city steel mill should lead the negotiation process. However, Nobuo Yamazaki, who is quite familiar with the characteristics of Chinese local governments, after the dinner, Mayor Gao Tianhe also rushed over to participate in the discussion and couldn't wait to talk about the specific cooperation content.

Chen Huai knew Nobuo Yamazaki's intention, and still wanted to use the temptation of investment to lure the market directly to interfere and even lead the specific negotiation process.

I have to say that Nobuo Yamazaki's strategy is very effective.

When Nobuo Yamazaki mentioned that Fuji Iron Manufacturing hoped that the final scale of the joint venture project could exceed one million tons, Tan Qiping let go of his reserve of not interfering in specific technical negotiations. Now the production capacity of the two municipal steel mills Game Steel is only about 800,000 tons. If the joint venture project adds another municipal steel mill Game Steel to Donghua, such a temptation is indeed not something ordinary officials can resist.

Therefore, when Nobuo Yamazaki went straight to the scene and expressed his hope to control the freight terminal. Tan Qiping did not ask Chen Huai's opinion. He directly introduced the details of Meigang and Dongdian Power Cooperation to Nobuo Yamazaki's cooperation in building a power plant and Meigang and Pengyue Cooperation in building a wharf.

After taking the initiative to explain Mei Gang's background, Tan Qiping looked at Chen Huai again, hoping that Chen Huai would make an affirmative promise to Nobuo Yamazaki on the spot, hoping to set the tone of the joint venture project tonight.

Seeing that Tan Qiping handed over all the initiative in the negotiations to the Japanese side without realizing it, Chen Huai was so angry that he wanted to throw his cup and leave, but he couldn't really give Tan Qiping a face, so he just picked up the teacup and turned around and wanted to find the waiter to help him add hot water.

The waiter standing at the door was distracted for a moment and did not pay attention to Chen Huai turned around. Seeing that Chen Huai had a tight face and knew that he was very unhappy at this time, Zhou Yu stood up and took the hot water kettle in the corner of the wall to add water to him. Perhaps seeing that the water in the cups of Nobuo Yamazaki and others were also shallow, Tan Qiping directly instructed Zhou Yu: "Xiao Zhou, add some water to Mr. Yamazaki and the others."

The accompanying staff really had the lowest status. When Nobuo Yamazaki got off the bus in front of Cuihua Building, Deputy Mayor Liang Xiaolin missed Zhou Yu without introducing him; now Tan Qiping treats her as a waiter, and she has nowhere to complain.

Zhou Yu had no choice but to walk to the opposite side and add water to Yamazaki Nobuo, Oda Yuichi and others. I don’t know whether Oda Yuichi intentionally or unintentionally, when Zhou Yu walked to him to add water to him, his elbow turned out, and just rubbed against the outside of Zhou Yu’s chest.

Zhou Yu was angry, but thought that Oda Yuichi might have been unintentional, so he could only bear to say nothing. However, Oda Yuichi took advantage and was still behaved. He couldn't help but turn his head proudly and whispered to Nobuo Yamazaki beside him, "This Chinese woman has a beautiful face and big breasts..."

The fire that Shen Huaiwo had really nowhere to vent all night, so he took the hot water in the cup and poured it on Oda Yuichi's face.

The water in the Shenhuai Cup was added by Zhou Yu just put it on the kettle. The boiling water made Oda Yu scream, and he slapped the person and the chair to the ground.

The sudden change also surprised everyone in the conference room. Chen Huai just "snap" to the conference table, scolding Yamazaki Nobuo in Japanese, saying, "If you always have this attitude to negotiate, please get out of China as soon as possible. Although China is poor, it has a strong ambition. You are welcome to invest, but you are not welcome to insult--"

Not everyone saw Oda Yuichi rubbing Zhou Yu's chest with his elbow. Even the Japanese representatives, only two members of Oda Yuichi and Miss Matsushima, the secretary of Yamazaki Nobuo, heard Oda Yuichi's frivolous words. What was even more shocked at this time was that Chen Huai actually scolded them in Japanese. They never expected that Chen Huai was pretending to be deaf and dumb all night and staying by their side, and actually heard all their thoughts of being private.

Chen Huai had a tense face and said to Tan Qiping: "The Japanese representatives openly harassed and insulted the District Mayor Zhou at the conference table. With such a negotiation attitude, their sincerity can be imagined. The Japanese representatives were not correct in their attitude, did not apologize to the District Mayor Zhou, and did not kick a guy like Oda Yuichi back to China. Mei Gang would not participate in such joint venture negotiations!" He stood up and picked up the windbreaker on the back of the chair and put it on, then pushed the door and walked out.

Nobuo Yamazaki sat there for a moment, not knowing what to say. Oda must have accidentally rubbed against the other party's chest, but the words he followed were too frivolous, and he even asked Chen Huai to listen. Chen Huai now insisted that his small move was intentional, and they had no way to refute it.

Tan Qiping didn't understand what was going on for a moment, nor did he know what Chen Huai used to scold the Japanese side in Japanese. However, when he saw that Chen Huai was a representative of Japan, he would have an attack. He directly poured a cup of hot hot water on the face of the representative of Japan, asking the Japanese side to overturn on the ground and scream. He was also stupid for a while, not knowing whether to scold Chen Huai and ask him to stop...
