From the moment he set off from the capital, Heizi felt aggrieved. The experts on the train were all talking about technical issues. He didn't understand technology and couldn't get in touch. When he arrived in the Soviet Union, everyone either spoke Russian or English.
He didn't understand foreign languages, so he didn't even understand what people were saying, let alone interrupting. He just followed everyone around like this for a long time, and he was already extremely depressed.
Hearing Qin Hai instructing him to have a drink with the other party, Heizi suddenly felt refreshed. He finally had a chance to be proud of himself. Heizi was born with a talent. In medical terms, it means that his body lacks a certain enzyme, which makes him completely resistant to alcohol.
It cannot be absorbed. So for him, there is no difference between alcohol and plain water, and he will not feel drunk no matter how much he drinks.
"Come on, I'd like to pay homage to all our Soviet friends." Heizi stood up, held a wine glass and began to challenge several Soviet people.
The Soviets are famous for their good wines. Seryosha, Utkin, and Vavilov are all good drinkers. They have all had contact with Chinese people before, and they have never lost in the process of drinking with Chinese people.
Usually, they haven't finished drinking yet, and the Chinese guests who are drinking with them are already drunk. This time, seeing Heizi actually standing up and inviting them to drink, they didn't bother to embarrass Qin Hai any more.
Lu Jingrong and others started competing with Heizi with great interest.
Xie Qijin knew Heizi's drinking capacity, and he was not worried about Heizi at all. Seeing Heizi fighting three Soviets alone, there was only one thing he had to do, which was to tell the boss's wife to serve the wine as soon as possible. Lu Jingrong didn't understand what was going on, and at first
He was still worried about Heizi, but seeing that both Qin Hai and Xie Qijin looked nonchalant, he couldn't say anything more.
In less than half an hour, the winner at the wine table was decided. Heizi sat firmly in his seat, his face as usual. Seryosha had already crawled under the table, and was pulled out by Xie Qijin. He threw him on the table.
On the sofa on one side, all that was left was the ability to giggle. Vavilov drank less, but his fair face had turned purple. Utkin was breathing heavily, and his eyes were wider than bull's eyes.
Big, he said that he wanted to continue drinking, but his hands were already shaking so much that he couldn't even hold the wine glass.
"Well...well done. You are this...big hero!" Utkin stuck out his tongue and extended a thumbs up to Heizi. In his opinion, whoever drinks more is great. Heizi alone
The three of them drank themselves down, so they are naturally the heroes among heroes.
"Mr. Qin, do you still want to drink?" Heizi pointed at the three Soviets and asked Mr. Qin for instructions.
Mr. Qin patted Heizi on the shoulder and said, "No need. They are almost done. If we drink any more, we won't be able to talk today."
Heizi smiled and said, "Then I'll go to the toilet first... I can't hold so much wine in my stomach."
Watching Heizi leave, Qin Hai sat up straight and said to Utkin: "Mr. Utkin, we are almost done drinking. Can we talk about something?"
"Absolutely." Utkin burped from the wine. He was still stumbling when he spoke, but his mind was still clear. He was just a little excited.
Qin Haidao: "I have already introduced myself before. I am the person in charge of a Chinese company. I came to the Soviet Union this time to introduce some scrapped equipment. If I can also find some technical information, that would be even better. I
I heard that your factory’s business volume has declined recently. There must be a large amount of idle equipment. I wonder if Mr. Utkin is willing to resell these idle expired equipment to us?"
"Do you want to buy our equipment?" Utkin's eyes regained some clarity, and it seems that profit is indeed the best sobering potion.
"Yes. Of course, I only hope to buy some obsolete second-hand equipment, because I can't afford the equipment that is too expensive." Qin Hai said.
For such meaningful words, I can only ask Xie Qi to come in and translate. Although Lu Jingrong's Russian is good, the same sentence loses its charm when put into his mouth. And between Qin Hai and Utkin, in the end, the
What is needed is that kind of tacit mutual suggestion.
"We have a lot of idle equipment, and the prices are very reasonable. If you are interested, you can come to the factory tomorrow to find me and Vavilov, and we will accompany you to the workshop to inspect. By the way, in addition to the workshop
In addition, our laboratory also has many experimental instruments that are no longer used. You know, these instruments were purchased from countries such as the United States, Japan, and Germany with a large amount of foreign exchange. We have no use for these things now. I don’t know.
Are you interested?" Utkin said nakedly.
Qin Haidao: "If the price is right, of course we are interested. However, I think these equipment have already been depreciated, right? The current residual value is estimated to be less than 10% of the original purchase price, right?"
Utkin understood that Qin Hai was setting a price, and he replied without hesitation: "No problem, we can sell these equipment to you at 10% of the purchase price."
Of course, the equipment that can be sold will not be junk goods that have been fully depreciated. No one will be interested in those junk goods even if they are given away for free. The things that Utkin and Vavilov put out for sale are all
There are 70% to 80% new advanced equipment and instruments, and they are sold at 10% of the original price. It can definitely be regarded as a tearful sale.
If it were normal times, Utkin might still be a little dissatisfied with the 10% price. He would bargain with the merchants to get a better price. However, now Utkin is half drunk and half awake.
In such a state, he couldn't concentrate on negotiating with Qin Hai, so he simply agreed to Qin Hai's offer.
"10% of the price has to be handed over to the factory for accounting. In addition, the two of us also need some commissions to do these tasks. Commissions...do you understand?" Vavilov interjected from the side.
Qin Hai nodded: "I understand, but I don't know what the standard for you two to draw commissions is."
"Utkin and I share half of the 6% of the original value of the equipment." Vavilov said bluntly. He was talking under the influence of alcohol. Normally, he would be more reserved than he is now.
.
The factory equipment was sold at 10% of the original price, but the factory director and chief engineer received a 6% commission. In other words, the money they received was equivalent to 60% of the factory's income.
%. Qin Hai believes that if he is willing to give these two people more commission, maybe they will be willing to make a big concession on the basis of 10%. In the hearts of these two moths, their own pockets are the most important.
, as for other things, to use an old saying: Don’t worry about the flood.
"I completely agree with your commission." Qin Hai nodded. Even with the commission, the cost he needs to pay is only equivalent to 16% of the original value of the equipment. If the equipment is in good condition, this price can be said to be cabbage.
price.
"Refreshing! Come, let's have another drink for our cooperation." Utkin cheered up and reached out to grab the wine bottle.
Heizi, who had already returned from the toilet, got the wine bottle first with a smile, poured a full glass for both Utkin and Vavilov, and then poured another glass for himself, saying: "Our Mr. Qin has a small drinking capacity, I
Come and have a drink with the two of you."
"Cheers!" Utkin didn't care who he drank with, he drank to feel happy, as long as he drank to make him happy.
"Mr. Qin, in addition to the equipment in our factory, are you interested in other equipment?" Vavilov sat down next to Qin Hai, took his hand, and asked in a low voice. He already knew that Qin Hai
Hai could speak English, so he switched to English to communicate with Qin Hai.
Qin Haidao: "Our company is in a period of great development, and all kinds of equipment are in short supply. If Mr. Vavilov can help us contact equipment from other companies, we will definitely be very interested. As for commissions, we
We can also pay you separately."
"This is too easy." Vavilov adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said proudly: "I have a large number of classmates and friends throughout the Far East. No matter what kind of equipment you want, I can help you."
I contacted you just to see if you have so much funds."
"Our funds are very sufficient, and there are no problems." Qin Hai said that he can now mobilize up to a billion US dollars in funds. If he purchases equipment at a price of 10%, he can buy at least 10 large-scale enterprises.
Factory. What's more, what he wants to purchase is only some high-tech equipment, which is too ordinary. Unless it is really given to him at the price of scrap iron, he will not spend the unjust money.
Vavilov smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Qin, I think that in addition to purchasing equipment, you will also be interested in technology? There are countless research institutions in the Far East with a large amount of cutting-edge technology. China now wants to modernize.
I believe these technologies will be of great help to you."
"Won't these technologies involve confidentiality and patent issues?" Qin Hai asked hypocritically.
Vavilov said disdainfully: "In the past, the results of these research institutions were kept secret, but who will care about these things now? As long as you can afford the fee, I can let those researchers transfer the technology to
As for patents, you can rest assured that these technologies are not patented. After you take them away, if you are willing to apply for a patent in your name, I don’t think anyone will object."
"This is great." Qin Hai pretended to be happy and said to Vavilov. However, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
It's really a wall that everyone is pushing against. The Soviet Union has not yet disintegrated, and these people in important positions are already trying to undermine it. Equipment, technology, and talents are all sold out by them for nothing. By the time
When the system transition is completed and the country needs to resume economic construction, how much of the original family wealth will be left? Thinking that Russia will have to sell oil and natural gas to maintain its status as a "BRIC" in future generations, Qin Hai doesn't know what to say.
