Su Tong looked at the CEO who claimed to be DuPont China with a half-smile and asked, "Am I really allowed to decide the price?"
Seeing Su Tong's joking eyes, Smollett couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and forced a smile and said: "Of course, as long as it is within a reasonable range, we will not bargain."
Seeing the other person's self-justification, Su Tong sneered in his heart: "Mr. Smollett, since you are the president of DuPont China, do you know what the greatest use of this paint is?"
Before he could speak, Su Tong continued: "This paint is not only great for merchant ships sailing in the sea, not to mention the benefits for national defense. Now you want to buy my formula as soon as you open your mouth. Do you want to
Have you lived through this consequence? In other words, by joining, DuPont has mastered this technology. Not to mention whether you will sell it, even if you do, at what price will you sell it to us?"
"This..." Smollett felt a little embarrassed at once. Everyone pointed out that this paint is not only useful for merchant ships, but also has huge benefits for warships. Just tell me what price you can offer?
He took a deep breath and stopped beating around the bush, and said bluntly: "Mr. Su, if you are willing to sell this technology, we are willing to pay $100 million to buy it. In addition...if you are worried about being held accountable by the government, we are also willing to
We can apply for U.S. citizenship for you and your family. What do you think of the price?"
Su Tong smiled and shook his head, and stood up without saying a word, "I'm sorry, the price you offered is too far from my expected price, so I'm very sorry. Let's cooperate again if we have the opportunity!"
"Mr. Su, please wait a moment..."
Seeing Su Tong about to leave, Smollett became anxious and stood up quickly to stop him, "Mr. Su, if you think this price is not appropriate, we can discuss it again."
Su Tong turned around and stretched out a finger towards Smollett, "The fixed price... is one hundred billion U.S. dollars. It won't be a penny less. Please think clearly before contacting me. Please remember, if it's less than this price, it won't matter."
Come to disturb me."
After finishing speaking, Su Tong smiled at a young waitress who was cleaning the table not far away, showing her neat white teeth, and then left the restaurant leisurely, leaving only Smollett with a dull look on his face.
.
The dull CEO of DuPont China may be thinking about three questions of mankind at this time: Who am I? What am I doing? When did the U.S. dollar become so worthless?
On the roadside less than 200 meters away from this cafe, there was an inconspicuous Buick LG8 official car parked. A thin man said into the headset: "The negotiations between the two parties have broken down. The target has left. Can you come on the 3rd?"
Evacuate and report any situation immediately."
"Bird's Nest, I am No. 3. The target seems to have discovered me. He even smiled at me when he left just now."
"I smiled at you? Didn't I mean to wink at you and try to flirt with you?"
"Shut the fuck up, you were sucking milk while I was in love. Do you, a virgin, know what ogling is? Even if someone is ogling me, at least he is still someone who dares to ask Dupont for a thousand dollars."
Billion dollar man, do you dare?"
There were bursts of giggles coming from the headset, and it was obvious that someone else was monitoring the channel.
Soon, the black Buick LG8 left the cafe and merged into the traffic...
Su Tong, who was wearing casual clothes, walked on the road first, thinking quickly. Although he had already prepared that this paint would definitely attract attention when it came out, he did not expect that someone would come looking for it in just one day.
I decided to go to a wealthy family like DuPont.
Growing up in the new century, most young people only know about Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, Oracle, Google or large domestic companies such as Tencent and Alibaba. Because these companies appear in the media the most, they naturally attract everyone's attention.
However, what many people don’t know is that there are many predators hiding in the dark in the world. Compared with these predators, companies such as Microsoft, Apple, and Google can only be regarded as little brothers.
Take DuPont, for example. This consortium founded in 1802 started off by relying on the chemical industry and arms. If nothing else, take the silk stockings that women wear every day. They were invented by others, and even
Even the world's first atomic bomb had the participation of this consortium.
Although after entering the new century, those financial groups have all disappeared underground and rarely appear in public view, but this does not mean that they are not there. They have just withdrawn from public view, but in fact their influence is still insignificant.
Everywhere.
It can be said that maybe Apple, Microsoft, and Google will go bankrupt tomorrow, but as long as the United States still exists, those consortiums will never disappear. From this, we can see how powerful they are.
It's just that DuPont is looking for him now, and he doesn't know what company will come to him later. Thinking of this, Su Tong can't help but regret that he came to this exhibition. It seems that he won't have any leisure time these two days.
To be honest, Su Tong was also angered by the arrogant Smollett just now. Even though the $100 million he offered seemed a lot, after all, it was already five or six times more than the small goal mentioned by the richest man Wang.
, but the estimate for this paint is still too low.
It can be said that as long as DuPont can produce such a paint, I am afraid that the world's marine paint market will be dominated by them. No one will refuse such a paint that can be painted once and left alone for ten years.
Let’s put it this way, there are 79,753 international sailing ships in operation around the world. Even if DuPont only captures one-third of the market, that is a market of hundreds of billions of dollars. This does not include military ships, such a huge market.
In the market, that guy actually only offered 100 million US dollars. How much do you look down on him?
Su Tong returned to the venue and found that there were still crowds of people near his booth. Many companies and even individuals came here to either inquire about the situation or ask for samples. Among these people, there were blond and blue-eyed foreigners, as well as domestic and Southeast Asian countries.
, Su Tong even saw Japanese and Korean people.
"It seems that things have gotten a bit big." Su Tong shook his head, and his desire to leave became more and more intense, so he summoned Chen Zhili and Wei Gong.
"You two look at the stalls here. If anyone comes to ask for investment or cooperation, you will refuse. If you want to buy paint, you have to queue up. After all, our output is not very high, so let's do this for now."
After that, Su Tong was about to slip away, but was stopped by Chen Zhili: "Wait a minute, you haven't set the price yet?"
"price?"
Su Tong thought for a while and said, "For now, let's settle on one thousand yuan per barrel (ten liters)."
