Chapter 200 Think What You Think

A new January has begun. This month, Yutou will be updated at least three times a day, at 8 a.m., noon, 12 p.m. and 6 p.m. If the update at 6 p.m. mentions 4 p.m., then there will be another chapter at 8 p.m.

At the same time, the promised additional updates remain unchanged. When the monthly tickets and recommended votes reach a certain number, additional updates will be added. At the same time, when a book friend above the helmsman appears, additional updates will also be provided. For the sake of Yutou being so diligent, come on

Let's use the ticket to smash the fish head into minced pepper fish head

Now that a company has been established, Qin Zhiyuan cannot waste resources.

Qin Zhiyuan is short of money during this period. As the only industry that legitimately belongs to Qin Zhiyuan, lll company should make a contribution.

Allen is working on it.

lll company has four divisions, one is responsible for the registration of relevant patents, one is responsible for product sales, one is the security department, and one is responsible for the research and development of related products.

Western countries attach great importance to intellectual property rights and are extremely strict in protecting the interests of patent holders, so Qin Zhiyuan has elevated the importance of the department responsible for registering patents to a primary position.

Allen came to Fisher just to sell the company's products.

Of course I need security, but I think security should be the responsibility of state agencies. After all, we pay taxes every month. Fisher tried his best to appear not to care so as to gain an advantage in the subsequent war of words.

.

Haha, can the national agency provide this kind of protection for your company? Allen is even more calm.

Taxpayers' property should indeed be protected, but when the state cannot cover it, all profits and losses are borne by them. While losing the ship, Fisher is also losing the opportunity to expand his business, which is also a loss in the long run.

See, this loss is more serious.

Allen understood this. Before that, Allen had just visited the largest insurance company in France, and now there was a contract lying in Allen's bag. It was a big deal. War is the enemy of the insurance industry, and it is also the enemy of the insurance industry.

Friends in the insurance industry, if the subject matter is damaged due to war, the policyholder will not receive any compensation, because war is a force majeure factor, which is clearly stipulated in the contract.

But this does not mean that insurance companies are useless during wars, because if the losses caused during wars are caused by non-war factors, they are still bound by the contract.

Allen signed an agreement with the insurance company. In this agreement, Qin Zhiyuan's fleet will provide escort in the Mediterranean, and the insurance company will pay Qin Zhiyuan a large sum of money for this.

Enough money for Qin Zhiyuan to continue ordering ten destroyers.

However, it is no longer easy to order destroyers from the United States. After the war bill is passed, American shipyards must serve the war, and they will not accept orders from other countries for the time being.

Fortunately, previous orders will continue to be fulfilled.

Uh-huh, tell me your suggestions. Fisher helplessly spread his hands.

On this issue, Allen has an absolute advantage. Losing Fisher as a customer means only losing a piece of business for Allen, but for Fisher, if the fleet cannot be protected, the loss will be more than just a loss.

Money is an opportunity for further growth.

Even if he is reluctant, Fisher has to admit this.

My boss has a fleet in the Mediterranean Sea. Alan points out the key to the problem.

Fleet Fisher was surprised.

A fleet is different from a fleet. It is almost impossible to be privately owned, and warships are generally not sold to private individuals. It is obvious that there is a big boss behind Allen. Fisher immediately adjusted his sitting position.

Yes, although a fleet is not as big as the Royal Navy of the British Empire, it is more than enough to deal with those black rats in the sea. If you are interested, we can have a good talk. When saying this, Allen felt

Extremely proud.

Allen is the first employee to join LLL Company. He has experienced the entire process of LLL Company's gradual development and growth. Even if the reasons for the Knights Templar are put aside, there is no doubt about Allen's loyalty to Qin Zhiyuan.

.

Yes, I am indeed in big trouble. If your company can provide escort for my ship, then I can pay a certain amount for it. Fisher is eager.

Since the other party is a big shot with a fleet, there is no need to be pretentious, because it is not difficult for those big shots to investigate the difficulties facing the Komoz Shipping Company.

Then you can choose the payment method. From Port Said to Marseille, it is about 1,500 nautical miles. The normal sailing speed is about four days. If you pay by tonnage, then you have to pay two US dollars per ton of goods. If you pay by month,

Your company's 18 ships only cost US$150,000. Allen sent you a quotation.

This price is also too high, which almost increases my shipping costs by half, which will make my products uncompetitive. Fisher did not rush to read the quotation, but began to dwell on the price, which shows that Fisher actually

He doesn't pay much attention to price. No matter what, he will accept the escort provided by Allen Company.

The common route of Fisher's Comoz Shipping Company is from Marseille to the Port of B in French Indochina, which is the Port of B in Myanmar in another time and space. If you take the Mediterranean via the Suez Canal, the distance is about 6,700 nautical miles.

.But if you don’t use the Suez Canal, all ships will have to go around the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa, which will double the distance and double the freight.

This is the value of the Suez Canal, and this is the significance of escort.

Don't worry yet, I have a good product that can reduce your shipping cost by 75%. Are you interested? Alan has thrown out a fresh bait again.

Seventy-five percent Fisher was in disbelief.

As a practitioner in the shipping industry, Fisher was very concerned about all technologies. Fisher had never heard of the existence of this technology before, and there was no news at all. This was in the 19th century when wireless telegraphy had gradually begun to become popular.

At first, it was simply impossible.

Indeed, before that, I would like to ask, what kind of goods does your fleet carry? Alan Guanzhi.

We have everything. As long as the customer needs it, we can transport anything. Of course, it must be non-perishable items that can be transported over long distances. Fisher was speaking generally.

It is impossible to go into detail on this issue, because in this era, as Fisher said, they shipped everything, from rifles and cannons to wheat and corn. As long as the customer asked for it, Fisher never refused.

Well, if I had a way to double your current shipping capacity while eliminating the cost of stevedores, how much do you think your costs would be reduced? Alan asked.

I have not calculated this carefully. If everything can be done, I think even if it cannot be reduced by 75%, it is still possible to reduce it by half. Fisher nodded in agreement.

Let's take a look at this. Allen took out a document from the leather bag he carried with him and handed it to Fisher.

What is this container Fisher wonders about.

Yes, containers, this little gadget, can reduce your shipping costs by 75%. We have calculated it. Alan is sure of it.

Containers are the latest patented products of Lll Company. Before this, people were only used to building houses on land and never thought of building houses on ships. Containers are such an artifact that can build houses on ships, and they are also modular structures.
