God-level Trader of Rebirth

Chapter 136 How to Break the Game
Both Zhao Gong and Xie Gong were frightened by this number and almost jumped up from the spot.

Since the establishment of their research institute, all the funds added up are not that much!
How many projects is $4 million enough for them to carry out?

Even big planes can handle it!

During this period, China was still unable to manufacture large aircraft, and 90% of the international civil aviation market was monopolized by two companies, Boeing and Airbus, who made huge profits every year.

And we have had to depend on them for a long time.

There used to be a widely circulated saying that the price of a shirt exported by China is only 2-3 US dollars, and the gross profit is about 1 US dollar per piece. It takes 8 million shirts to exchange for an Airbus A380 aircraft.

This is not a glorious thing, but it highlights the dilemma of China's labor-intensive industries and low-end manufacturing industries with low profits.

Technology is really valuable. If you don't have it, you can only buy products made by others at a high price. As for how much to sell to you, it is entirely up to others.

In many high-end industries, Huaxia does not even have the right to negotiate prices. Only when the technical barriers are broken, can the other party sit down with you calmly and negotiate prices.

But at that time, we didn't need it too much.

Chen Weidong sneered in his heart. He had long been mentally prepared for the island country's exorbitant prices, but he was still a little surprised when he heard them quote the price.

At present, machine tools worth more than 3000 million US dollars on the market can already be described as sky-high prices, not to mention the [-] million US dollars.

Even if you get the European market, if you really secretly buy it from the Germans, you may be able to customize similar machine tools, and you don't need to buy island countries at all.

It's just that it's all disassembled into parts, and it's a little more troublesome to transport it back.

Although Infinity Corporation has money, it is not stupid enough to pay a high premium to buy something that is obviously not worth that much money.

Nakano Toruya and other seven or eight people from island countries all looked like they liked to buy or not.

They deliberately quoted such a high price, just to scare off Chen Weidong and the others, hoping that they would quit and buy some ordinary production lines and low-end equipment.

This is already very advanced for Huaxia.

Why do you have to buy such a good device?
What's more, it's not that we don't sell it, it's because you think it's expensive and can't afford it.

The price, we have already given it.

Zhao Gong and Xie Gong tried their best and communicated with them several times.

However, the island country is not willing to make concessions at all on the price of this machine. It just bites the price of 4 million U.S. dollars, saying that this is already the lowest price.

Both of them are engaged in scientific research, but not negotiators, so they could only sigh and break up unhappy.

In fact, the islanders are also worried that the sale of precision machine tools to China will improve China's manufacturing level, which will reduce the competitiveness of their products, and ultimately the gains outweigh the losses.

After all, the current catch-up speed of Huaxia Technology has already made many countries vigilant.

Afterwards, Chen Weidong and the others lost all interest.

After a cursory look at the factory, the group returned to the hotel.

Even Toru Nakano invited them to have dinner together, but they all refused.

Six people gathered in Chen Weidong's room, not knowing what to say.

The atmosphere was a little dull.

They have been shocked too much today, and they need to digest it.

Chen Weidong leaned on the sofa and smoked quietly. He knew that he had to come up with a countermeasure at this time, otherwise they would definitely return empty-handed if they went on like this.

Just when he was thinking hard.

Xie Gong at the side hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "Mr. Chen, tomorrow I will ask my old friend. He works in a private research institute. Maybe they will have a way."

Chen Weidong was shocked, and said with some surprise: "Xie Gong, is this true? If it is a private research institute, then things will be much easier!"

In an instant, several plans came to his mind, and they might all be useful.

Li Yun and the others asked curiously: "Private research institute? Will their equipment be more high-end than what we see today?"

Chen Jie also didn't understand, and asked: "Why can private individuals in their island country afford to build research institutes? There are not many private research institutes in China right now."

Xie Gong was hesitant to ask a series of questions from them, and he didn't know how to explain it. He was only engaged in scientific research, not economics, and never thought about this question.

He hesitated and said, "Perhaps the islanders are richer."

Chen Weidong snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and said, "Let me tell you this question."

"The islanders are rich. Their annual gross national product has reached trillions of dollars. They are indeed developed countries. At the same time, they are very willing to invest in scientific research projects."

"According to some data, the island country's annual R&D investment has reached more than [-]% of the gross national product! You can calculate this figure!"

Chen Jie jumped up from the sofa all of a sudden, and said in surprise: "Then their annual scientific research investment has reached tens of billions of dollars?!"

"What's all the fuss about? In order to maintain the leading edge of technology and prevent being overtaken by others, the islanders have never been stingy in investing in scientific research."

"Besides, after the end of World War II, the island countries did not fulfill the war reparations at all. Although their society and the people at the bottom were hit hard at that time, those consortiums, large companies, and deep foundations still have a lot of wealth!"

"After the outbreak of the Cao County War, the United States fully stationed troops in the island nation. The islanders don't need to invest too much in the military, and they have spare energy to develop technology, economy, and education!"

"Thus, those miracles in the 30 years after the war were originally caused by the single-handed support of the United States, and their main purpose was to let the island countries contain the development of Southeast Asia."

"It's just that, later, the island country thought it was rich and wanted to challenge its master. The result was a crushing defeat, and it was crazily harvested by Wall Street in the capital market, falling into 30 years of economic regression."

Chen Weidong's eloquent talk stunned Li Yun and others. They never thought that there are so many complicated factors involved.

And everything that Chen Weidong showed was seriously inconsistent with the data!
If every high school student in Huaxia could have this kind of thinking and insights, wouldn't they be afraid of not taking off!
Chen Weidong also realized that he seemed to have deviated from the topic, and he would get up as soon as he talked about these things, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Tomorrow, Xie Gong will contact the research institute, Zhao Gong will contact those factories, and Li Yun, you will contact the embassy. Don't be idle, everyone, and proceed according to the original plan."

He gave orders immediately.

"Ah Wei, what about us?"

Chen Jie paused. Everyone had work to do, and he always felt embarrassed if he didn't do something.

"We don't have a branch in the island country yet. You go to register one and recruit some staff. The ability is secondary. It's best to be your crazy fans."

Chen Weidong had some ideas in his mind, and began to speak slowly, while assigning tasks to everyone.

And he himself has one more important thing to do.
