Chapter 738 Order directly?
A few days later, some people were as puzzled as Tang Fei. Since the approval has been obtained, why has the Paris side not announced the subway locomotive replacement plan?

Several major subway locomotive manufacturers in the world have sent teams to Paris in order to understand the details of the matter, and Siemens Vehicle Group is no exception.

And within a few days, Siemens Vehicle Group held another board meeting to discuss the Paris Metro project.

It may be that some directors have lobbied in private, and more and more people are advocating to get rid of Jiuzhou Metro Company and do it alone, and Siemens Vehicle Group will independently win the order of the Paris Metro project.

Many directors are full of confidence, because Siemens Vehicle Group is not only a European company, but also a large part of the subway locomotives of the Paris Metro was once manufactured by Siemens Vehicle Group.

The meeting was very heated.

Grudy still advocates maintaining close cooperation with Jiuzhou Metro Company and participating in the Paris Metro project with Jiuzhou Metro Company, but there are not many directors who support him, and he is completely at a disadvantage.

In the Siemens Vehicle Group, although Grudy is the president, his shareholding does not exceed 50%, but only about 20%, which can only be regarded as one of the people with the largest shareholding.

Many directors united together, and they advocated that Siemens Vehicle Group should go it alone. These directors held more than 50% of the shares. Faced with this situation, Grudy felt a bit of bitterness in his heart.

In the end, Siemens Vehicles Group reached a resolution that the Paris Metro project would no longer maintain cooperation with Jiuzhou Metro Company.

After the meeting, Grudy returned to his office with a heavy heart, closed the door of the office, and sat weakly on the chair. He knew that the honeymoon period between Siemens Vehicle Group and Jiuzhou Metro Company was over.

"These damned people are too short-sighted, and they will pay a heavy price." Grudy thought fiercely in his heart.

.......
The Paris City Government has set up a project team, which is responsible for the replacement of the Paris Metro, including the selection of suppliers, the ordering of new subway locomotives, and so on.

This project team has a lot of power.

Paval is the leader of this team. He is also a typical Frenchman. He was born and raised in Paris. He already has a very favorite choice in his heart.

At noon today, he took a few people to France's C Group, which is a large group company that integrates the R&D and manufacturing of subway locomotives, as well as the production of various industries, electrical equipment, and power supply and transmission. Last year's total revenue It is close to 100 billion U.S. dollars. Although it has not entered the world's top 500, it can be regarded as a company with good strength.

As one of the main subway locomotive manufacturers in the world, some subway locomotives of the Paris Metro are manufactured by this company.

It seems understandable that Pawar chose a local company in France.

In Group C, they received a grand and warm reception. The top management of Group C felt like the world was falling apart, and they were ecstatic.

More than [-] brand new subway lines, this is a super big order!
They felt the pressure at first, knowing that the competition in the field of international subway locomotive manufacturing was too fierce, especially when facing the Jiuzhou Metro Company, they had no chance of winning.

Lady Luck actually took care of Group C. Paval came over in person and explained straight to the point that he would order more than [-] new subway locomotives needed by the Paris Metro from Group C.

The speed between the two parties is very fast, and they have begun to negotiate some specific details. According to this pace, it is estimated that the basic framework will be roughly negotiated in a few days...

.......
There is no impermeable wall under the sky.

What's more, Harry has been staying in Paris these days. Paval's actions have not escaped Harry's eyes. He was the first to know that Paval was going to Group C. After finding out the basic situation, he dared not neglect and immediately called Tang Fei.

"Boss, things are a little bad."

"Oh." During the phone call, Tang Fei's tone sank slightly, and he asked, "Harry, what's the current situation, tell me quickly."

Right now, Tang Fei is in his office with Ma Jianwei beside him.

Ma Jianwei couldn't stay still for a while, so he just came to Shenhai City. He had a long chat with Tang Fei about the situation of Jiuzhou Metro Company, and of course he also talked about the Paris Metro project.

Jiuzhou Metro Company is adjusting its production structure, its production capacity has been released, and its production capacity has been greatly increased. The number of production workers has not increased, but its production capacity has increased by at least 30%.

Throughout 2005, Ma Jianwei planned to do a big job and wanted to win more orders. He placed great hopes on the orders for the Paris Metro project.

It's Harry calling!
Immediately, Ma Jianwei pricked up his ears. He guessed that Harry might be reporting to his boss something related to the Paris Metro project.

During the phone call, Harry explained the whole thing, especially reminding Tang Fei that Paval, the person in charge of the Paris subway project, is very fond of the products of the French C Group, and he and the top management of the C Group have already entered the negotiation stage of ordering subway locomotives.

After answering the call, Tang Fei's face darkened.

It is no wonder that the purchase plan for subway locomotives has been announced to the public without delay. It turned out that they wanted to operate in secret and order directly from the French C Group.

I see……

Noticing the change in the boss's face, Ma Jianwei's heart sank slightly, and he couldn't help asking: "Boss, what's wrong?"

Tang Fei didn't hide anything, and said directly: "The person in charge of the Paris subway project team went to France's C Group, and they intend to directly purchase these more than [-] subway locomotives from C Group. It is estimated that the two parties have already entered into specific procurement Negotiate."

what!
Ma Jianwei turned pale with shock, stood up all of a sudden, and said with a shocked face: "Boss, can't you, just purchase directly from Group C like this?"

Tang Fei nodded slightly.

"Hey……"

Ma Jianwei sighed again and again. He originally had great hopes for this project, but he didn't think about it, and the bamboo basket fetched water in vain.

Seeing Ma Jianwei's dejected look, Tang Fei said: "Old Ma, it seems that you are determined to win this order, and now you feel a little uncomfortable."

"No, hey..."

Ma Jianwei sighed again, and then said: "We are adjusting the production structure, and the production capacity is gradually increasing. We originally wanted to do a big job, but we didn't expect to be hit like this."

Tang Fei said seriously: "Harry also reported another news during the phone call just now. The Siemens Vehicle Group held a board meeting. Most of the chairman no longer advocated continuing to cooperate with us. They wanted to get rid of us and do it alone. Place an order for the Paris Metro project."

"However, they have a little wishful thinking. They can't get this order. Pawar intends to give the order to Group C."

Ma Jianwei said: "If you don't cooperate, you won't cooperate. When they beg us, without their OEM production, we will produce it ourselves."

After the increase in production capacity, Ma Jianwei's pressure on production and manufacturing has been greatly reduced. If he can really win the order of the Paris subway project, Jiuzhou Metro Company can also produce and manufacture these more than 100 subway trains.

However, this order is estimated to belong to the C Group in France. Ma Jianwei felt strongly unwilling. He looked at Tang Fei, "Boss, should we just forget about it and watch this order fall into someone else's pocket?"

Tang Fei shook his head, "No, no matter what, we have to fight for it. After all, this is more than a hundred trains."

After thinking about it, Tang Fei picked up the phone and called Harry again, and gave some instructions on the phone.

Ma Jianwei next to him heard it clearly, and suddenly his eyes lit up slightly, thinking in his heart, the boss's methods are really clever.

In this way, it is really unclear who will win the prize. Perhaps, Jiuzhou Metro Company may become the final winner.

.......
Siemens Vehicle Group.

They also finally got the news that Paval intends to directly order the more than [-] subway locomotives needed by the Paris Metro from Group C. Immediately, many directors became anxious.

Another board meeting is imminent.

However, the atmosphere of this board meeting is completely different from the previous meeting. The meeting room is very dull. Last time, the directors who strongly advocated throwing away the Jiuzhou Metro Company and working alone, and who are confident in the order of the Paris Metro project hang their heads down. , like a frosted eggplant, completely wilted.

Grudy's eyes swept over these people, and he thought angrily in his heart, it's okay now, not only did he not get the order for the Paris Metro project, but he also completely offended the Jiuzhou Metro Company.Perhaps, Siemens Vehicle Group will really go it alone in the field of subway locomotives.

"Chairman, what are we going to do now?"

One of the directors was crying, and finally became anxious, with a hint of crying in his tone.

Grudy shook his head slowly, he didn't know what to do.

Everything was done by those directors, and it was his turn to wipe his ass. Grudy swept his stern gaze over those directors, and then snorted heavily, "The meeting is over!"

After speaking, Grudy was the first to walk out of the conference room without looking back.

Many other people sighed and walked out of the conference room with heavy steps. They knew that if the relationship with Jiuzhou Metro Company was not repaired quickly, the future situation of Siemens Vehicle Group would be difficult.

This meeting did not reach any resolutions. After the meeting ended, Grudy returned to his office with a very heavy heart.

Sitting there powerless, his eyes were a little empty, until there was a knock on the office door, and he forced himself to cheer up.

It was his assistant who came in, holding several newspapers in his hand, "Boss, take a look at these newspapers, they are all fried outside!"

After receiving these newspapers, Grudy flipped through them, and gradually, his expression changed...

.........

There are two updates today, and the first one will be delivered.
