Chapter 991 Speculation
After receiving the report from Liu Jianfeng, Fan Zhendong, head of the Guangzhou Automobile Group Office, was stunned for four or five seconds before thanking Liu Jianfeng in a loud voice: "Assistant Liu, thank you for telling us the situation in time."

"Director Fan, you are being polite," Liu Jianfeng said with a smile: "Our Mr. Zhang made an evaluation after knowing that the oil-stealing otter is in contact with you, saying that the oil-stealing otter did not really intend to cooperate with us. , but followed this move to put pressure on your side."

Fan Zhendong nodded again and again: "Very well, there is indeed a possibility..."

It's not just as simple as "some", in fact, in Fan Zhendong's mind, stealing oil towers was planned in this way, but the oil otters didn't expect that Huateng Industrial Group would not be fooled, so they told themselves the situation backhandedly, letting Stealing the oil otter’s little plan is in vain—of course, you can’t say that stealing the oil otter is wrong. After all, in business negotiations, using a third party to put pressure on the partner is a normal routine operation. Who Let the current situation be that GAC is begging to steal oil for cooperation?

"Yeah," Liu Jianfeng responded, and then said: "Our President Zhang entrusted me to tell you that our Huateng Industrial Group has no plan to cooperate with the oil thief for the time being, and it will not spoil the plan of our brother units. Cooperate with the strategy of stealing oil otters, so please rest assured."

"Thank you, thank you," Liu Jianfeng expressed his gratitude with Fan Zhendong's expression on his face: "Assistant Liu, thank you for your help, and please tell Mr. Zhang that GAC Group is very grateful for your actions. You are welcome to come to GAC for inspection and cooperation at any time." guidance work."

"Okay okay..."

........................

After hanging up the phone, Fan Zhendong didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly reported the situation to Lu Zhenya, the general manager of the group.

After listening to Fan Zhendong's report, Lu Zhenya didn't show much surprise on his face, but just nodded: "Before the official cooperation agreement is signed, the oil-stealing otters will use various methods to strive for favorable conditions for them. It's normal, nothing to be surprised about, but Mr. Zhang from Huateng Group is really interesting."

Fan Zhendong nodded again and again: "You are talking about..."

On the contrary, Lu Zhenya, after bowing his head and thinking for a while, suddenly asked Fan Zhendong: "Old Fan, do you think that Huateng Industrial Group is planning to build plank roads in the open and secretly hide Chen Cang?"

"what?"

Hearing Lu Zhenya's words, Fan Zhendong was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and said slowly: "This...is it unlikely?"

"It's really unlikely, but this kind of thing has to be guarded against," Lu Zhenya sighed, and said, "Just look at our cooperation with Guangben loan. How much does a Guangben project bring to our group in a year?" Benefits? How much tax revenue and jobs will it bring to the local government? How many industrial chains will it stimulate? And how much tax revenue and employment will the western Zhejiang industrial chain bring to the local government? Even if Zhang Qihang is not tempted and refuses to steal oil otters Zhang Qihang's true thoughts, but can you guarantee that the leaders of Lu Province will not be moved?"

Hearing what his boss said, Fan Zhendong felt a little bit uneasy: The boss is right, although Zhang Qihang is very upright, but even if Zhang Qihang is upright enough, he will not move the cake of our GAC Group , but can the leaders of Lu Province bear it?As long as this project can be successfully implemented, how much dividends, tax revenue and employment will it bring to Lu Province?How much can it boost the local economy?
When all parts of the country are desperately attracting investment, and everyone has to put in 1% effort for even a 200% chance, why does Lu Province not eat such a big piece of fat that has already been brought to the lips?

Thinking of this, Fan Zhendong asked cautiously: "Mr. Lu, what do you mean..."

Lu Zhenya didn't go around in circles, and said, "Comrade Zhang Qihang is indeed kind, but this kind of thing must be guarded against. Besides, who can guarantee that this is not a smoke bomb released by Huateng Group to confuse people?"

"This……"

Fan Zhendong has to admit that this possibility is really possible: if Huateng Industrial Group said to himself, "Don't worry about your Guangzhou Automobile Group, our Huateng Group will never hook up with oil thieves", but you can rest assured on your side Now, they turned their heads and really hooked up with the oil-stealing otters, so what should they do?
Huh?
Not right either!
If this is the case, isn't the Huateng Group doing this too much?They Huateng Industrial Group simply didn't say anything, and just quietly contacted the oil-stealing otter, wouldn't that be enough?After all, one is in the south and the other is in the north, and the distance between the two provinces is about 2000 kilometers. With the cooperation of Lu Province, can GAC extend its hand to Lu Province?

The most important thing is, even if it is said that this is the smoke bomb they put out by Huateng Group, and Huateng Group really intends to cooperate with GAC Group, what can GAC Group do?
After all, before signing a contract or even signing a memorandum of cooperation, people who steal oil otters can cooperate with whoever they want to cooperate with. Just because they have contacted GAC in the early stage, they must cooperate with us?

There is no such overbearing reason, is there?

However, seeing the expression of his boss, Fan Zhendong hesitated for a while, and finally did not object, but nodded and said: "If you think about it carefully, it is indeed the truth."

I am just the director of the office of a small group, but he is the boss of the group. The domestic bosses are arguing about business issues. Does this mean that I dislike my life so smoothly?

Lu Zhenya was very satisfied with Fan Zhendong's reaction, he nodded and said: "Well, you are right to think so, but anyway, since Huateng Industrial Group has made a statement, we have to express it... In this way, Lao Fan, you send a thank you letter to Huateng Group in the name of the group office, thanking them for their support to our work."

There are some things that Lu Zhenya didn’t say: this thank-you letter is a thank-you letter, and it’s also a pile of fire. If Huateng Industrial Group is really kind, that’s all. Therefore, this letter of thanks is a pile of fires that will put Huateng Group on it. As long as Huateng Industrial Group has contact with the oil-stealing otter, I will publish this letter of thanks on my side. At that time, people in the industry will immediately cast aside Huateng Group and Zhang Qihang:

Stealing oil otters came to the door of your Huateng Industrial Group. Whether you really want to cooperate with you or use your Huateng Group to seek better cooperation conditions from GAC Group, this is normal; your Huateng Industrial Group is moved by this. Yes, it is normal to want to cooperate with oil-stealing otters, but you Huateng Industrial Group said that you would never cooperate with oil-stealing otters, and at the same time quietly contacted them. This is why your Huateng Group is not authentic up.

....................................

Zhang Qihang did not directly reject himself, which did not surprise Hiroyuki Seto.

In Seto Hiroyuki's view, the information that the vice president told him before was inherently problematic.Of course, it's not that His Excellency Zhang Fujio told himself the mistake on purpose, it should be that those guys from HTC Motors didn't inform His Excellency Zhang Fujio of the real situation, and that's why such a misunderstanding occurred, but it doesn't matter, such a mistake is not true. will commit.

So when he saw Zhang Qihang, after some pleasantries, Seto Hiroyuki explained his intention of coming: "Mr. Zhang, the oil-stealing otter appreciates your strength and enterprising spirit very much, and hopes to be able to cooperate with you." Build a comprehensive partnership."

"Comprehensive cooperation?" Zhang Qihang raised his eyebrows and asked Hiroyuki Seto: "In addition to products, does it also include comprehensive cooperation in the technical field?"

Zhang Qihang's answer was a bit out of Seto Hiroyuki's expectation. He originally thought that Zhang Qihang should be very excited after hearing what he said. Seto Hiroyuki was also very confident. He was confident that even if Zhang Qihang hid his confidence Hiroyuki Seto was taken aback by Zhang Qihang's reaction: Zhang Qihang didn't seem to have much interest in cooperating with oil thieves in China to produce cars. On the contrary, he was rather Cooperation in the field of technology is respected.

However, Hiroyuki Seto reacted very quickly. After a short moment of astonishment, he nodded immediately: "Of course, the cooperation in the technical field is no problem. We still admire your achievements in the technical field, but we will start technical cooperation in an all-round way... ..."

Hiroyuki Seto hesitated and said with a embarrassed face: "Mr. Zhang, you should understand that if any two companies want to carry out comprehensive cooperation, it must have a long-term mutual trust accumulation process in the early stage."

"That's right."

Seeing Zhang Qihang's reaction, Hiroyuki Seto breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "However, although it is unlikely that the two companies will conduct comprehensive technical cooperation in the short term, some small-scale technical cooperation is still okay. Of course, the specific aspects of cooperation will require further communication between the two parties.”

"That's right, I agree with Mr. Seto's words," Zhang Qihang nodded and said, "But Mr. Seto, how does the oil-stealing otter envision the cooperation between the two parties?"

finally come!

Hiroyuki Seto breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhang, what our president means is that we very much hope to establish a joint venture with you to jointly produce oil-stealing cars. As for the specific models, these can be discussed."

"Do you want to cooperate in the production of stealing oil otter cars?" Zhang Qihang did not show a happy or refusing attitude, but frowned slightly, with a cautious expression on his face: "Mr. Seto, you must know that our Huateng Group In fact, you have had contact with HTC, right?"

"Yes, I know," Seto Hiroyuki nodded, but immediately, Seto Hiroyuki explained: "For this reason, I have carefully understood why you rejected HTC's cooperation idea at the beginning. Frankly speaking, I I think the idea of ​​cooperation proposed by HTC is no problem for a car group like GAC, but it is too much for a car like Huateng Group with strong R&D and design capabilities. This is an insult to your ability."

Zhang Qihang waved his hand: "You can't say that. Our country's automobile industry and automobile technology are just in their infancy. In fact, the conditions offered by Hongda Automobile are not very favorable for any company. In fact, we It’s also very exciting, but there’s something else going on in it.”

"Ah? Is that so?"

Hiroyuki Seto cooperated with a very surprised expression.

"Well," Zhang Qihang replied, "I believe you are aware of our country's regulations in the automobile industry, that is, a foreign company can only cooperate with two domestic automobile manufacturers. HTC and GAC have established a joint venture. The company, and earlier before that, had signed a memorandum of cooperation with our Second Automobile Group, and even established an engine joint venture company. According to the terms of that memorandum of cooperation, HTC’s passenger car cooperation in China The only partners are Guangzhou Automobile and Second Automobile, and we had a problem with the specific handling personnel. If there is no such regulation, I believe that our cooperation with Hongda Automobile is actually very pleasant, so..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Qihang looked at Hiroyuki Seto and asked, "Mr. Seto, I know that you have been in contact with GAC Group before my country's FAW Group established a passenger car joint venture. Has a similar memorandum of cooperation been signed with GAC Group?"

"No, absolutely not!" Seto Hiroyuki said without hesitation: "The contact between Stealing Oil Otter and GAC Group is in the early stage of mutual understanding, Mr. Zhang, let me tell you the truth, and it is precisely because Through the previous understanding and analysis of GAC Group, we think that they are not the most ideal partner, so we found you."

Zhang Qihang showed an expression of "So that's how it is!", and nodded with a smile: "That's it, then I can rest assured, Mr. Seto, to tell you the truth, I have a good relationship with General Manager Lu of GAC Group. I'm really afraid that Mr. Lu will come to block the door of our house after ruining their good deed, now I can feel relieved after hearing what you said."

"Hehehe..."

Hiroyuki Seto laughed.

Zhang Qihang went on to say again: "It is a very rare learning opportunity for Huateng Group to cooperate with a world-class car manufacturer like Stealing Oil. We can learn a lot from Stealing Oil. But it is precisely because of this that I think we should show our own attitude instead of rushing to reach some terms of cooperation...

So, Mr. Seto, I suggest that we send inspection teams to each other to have a clearer and in-depth understanding of each other's situation, and then talk about specific cooperation methods. What do you think? "

Hiroyuki Seto bowed slightly, nodded and said: "This suggestion is very good, I have no objection."
