Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1281 Patriotic Merchant
After the Spring Festival, after the fifth day of the new year, Duan Yun came to Wang Shi's company by car.

Wang Shi is also a workaholic. Other companies don't go to work until the eighth day of the new year, but his company has already opened its doors on the third day of the new year.

Years ago, Wang Shi ushered in a major turning point in his life, that is, his modern science and education equipment exhibition and sales center had been renamed as Vanke Company, he served as the chairman and general manager, and planned to get involved in the real estate industry.

In fact, the company's restructuring was also out of helplessness. In the past, his modern scientific and educational equipment exhibition and sales center relied on early buying and early selling of foreign exchange, and lived a carefree life. However, since the new mayor Li Hao came to power, he has strictly controlled foreign exchange transactions. , and established the Shenzhen Foreign Exchange Exchange Center, which undoubtedly cut off Wang Shi's financial resources. Because of the lack of foreign exchange, his scientific and educational instrument exhibition and sales center had no funds to introduce imported office equipment, so he had to find new ways to open up new company businesses. .

With the "First Auction of Land in China" at the end of last year, Wang Shi saw a huge business opportunity in the real estate industry, so he prepared to raise funds and manpower, and started to get involved in the real estate industry this year.

In fact, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the company had nothing to do at all, and none of the employees came to work, but Wang Shi is a workaholic, and he prefers the feeling of sitting in the office, even if there is not much work to do.

"Do you want to buy a Dutch lithography machine?"

After learning about Duan Yun's intention, Wang Shi said in surprise.

Wang Shi has been engaged in the import trade between Hong Kong and the Mainland for many years, so he is familiar with many high-tech equipment and products. Although he does not know the technical principles of lithography machines, he clearly remembers this product and Like the most advanced five-axis CNC machine tools, they are all banned products from foreign countries to the mainland of China, and it is almost impossible to transport them to the mainland.

"I know that Boss Wang has a wide range of connections. He has a company in Hong Kong and knows many Hong Kong businessmen, so I'm thinking that Boss Wang will definitely be able to help me with this matter." Duan Yun said with a smile.

"That thing is a prohibited item. There is also an embargo list in Hong Kong. It is impossible for the British to allow such a high-precision instrument to be shipped to our mainland." Wang Shi said with a frown.

"If the British don't care about this matter, I don't need to look for you, Manager Wang." Duan Yun smiled slightly, and then said: "I heard that Boss Wang knows a lot of "patriotic businessmen" from Hong Kong, I think They might be willing to help..."

China developed two bombs and one star and later the nuclear submarine Dongfeng intercontinental missile. Some of the key components and equipment needed were all secretly encountered by the country through various channels through some "patriotic businessmen" in Hong Kong, including The Varyag aircraft carrier of the later generations was first registered by a businessman in Hong Kong as a leather bag company, and finally shipped this semi-finished aircraft carrier to the mainland of China, and became China's first domestically-made aircraft carrier, the Liaoning.

In essence, these "patriotic businessmen" also do this kind of thing to make huge profits. However, because the risk is extremely high, it is already very good for these patriotic businessmen to help. Of course, in terms of price, it must be better than Directly buy a much higher price, otherwise, no one would do such a thing for Aidan.

"Do you know how many years the smuggler will be sentenced if this incident is exposed? And if it is found that this incident has something to do with our company, I will never even think about doing any business in Hong Kong." Wang Shi shook his head and said .

Although Wang Shi knew that Duan Yun was rich and powerful, he absolutely did not dare to take risks in this kind of thing, because he had too much business in Hong Kong. Once he was punished by Hong Kong for smuggling contraband, it would affect the company's existing business , this is absolutely unacceptable to him.

"Manager Wang, I know this matter is too risky. Of course I can understand that you don't want to cause the company's business because of this matter." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "So my plan is to let you Help me introduce a few powerful and courageous "patriotic businessmen", help me buy a few Dutch lithography machines and ship them to China, the price is easy to say..."

"As far as I know, a lithography machine costs one or two million US dollars. Such an expensive thing is extremely risky, and the commission is definitely not cheap, at least five to six million US dollars..." Wang Shi pondered Said for a while.

"If this machine can be shipped to China smoothly, I can pay a commission of 200 million dollars!" Duan Yun said with raised brows.

"Two million dollars!?" Wang Shi was startled when he heard this.

"If you can help me coordinate this matter, I can give you a commission of 50 U.S. dollars after it is completed."

"50?"

"Yes, and I will not transfer the money to your company, but directly to your own account..." Duan Yun said in a low voice.

"We are all friends, no matter what, since you opened your mouth to me about this matter, then I will help you more or less!" Wang Shi said bluntly.

Wang Shi is a very shrewd businessman, and he never gets up early without profit.

If the business was a direct business-to-company transaction, although the commission of 50 US dollars was considered a sky-high price these days, it was still not enough for Wang Shi to take such a big risk.

However, if the money was directly transferred to Wang Shi's personal account, it would be another matter entirely.

Because so far, the newly restructured and renamed Vanke is still a state-owned enterprise, affiliated to the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone Development Corporation, and Nanyou Group, where Ren Zhengfei worked before, is also a subsidiary of this group company.

Wang Shi has worked in the system for many years. He has long wanted to transform Vanke into a joint-stock company and turn this company into a private company, and he will occupy most of the shares.

Therefore, Wang Shi is in great need of a business that can "earn extra money". He has been secretly accumulating funds in preparation for the next step to acquire Vanke shares.

The conversion of 50 US dollars into RMB is at least 400 million yuan, which is not a small amount. If he can get this commission, then Wang Shi will complete the accumulation of funds ahead of schedule.

In fact, at the end of 1988, Vanke issued the first "Prospectus Circular" in mainland China, issued 1 million shares at one yuan per share, raised 2800 million yuan, and began to get involved in the real estate industry. With this more than 2800 million yuan , Wang Shi can at least win another 400/1 of the shares.

"I knew that Manager Wang is a person who values ​​friendship." Duan Yun smiled, and then said: "I will send over the model and parameters of the product I want to buy later. The sooner this matter is the better, I will pay in advance Part of the money, after the machine enters the mainland, I will pay the rest of the balance, all in all, as long as the machine can be shipped to the mainland for me, the money is negotiable..."
