Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 1769 Technology is the initiative in negotiations
"That's not the price you mentioned. That price you mentioned is not a negotiated price, it's a robbery price!"

Facing a strong opponent, Ji Donglai went straight to the fight. At this time, the role of Udus was reflected. The opponent looked at Ji Donglai and understood him immediately.

"Mr. Jiali, you may not understand what Mr. Ji means. Why should our cooperation be limited to fertilizer plants and gold? Why do you have to worry about the price of a few ounces? Our purchases are continuous. Don't you also need more sustainable projects that can create profits for yourself?"

After saying this, Youdus translated the content to Ji Donglai, who nodded.

This time, Kerry opened his mouth but did not refute, because Udus' words touched the other person's heart.

"Mr. Kerry, this is it. We use a lot of fertilizer packaging bags every year. Every time we transport the raw materials from the far northeast, the price is very expensive. We supported that project, and our company built the equipment and the entire project."

"If you need to do a continuous project, we can bring the synthetic paper project to Navai and help you make a set. Then our Navai fertilizer factory will purchase packaging bags from you from now on. From non-woven fabrics, printing machines, to synthetic paper, we can provide a full set of solutions and guidance."

"In addition, we also need to purchase a large amount of silver, and we also need to purchase it from Mr. Kerry. Of course, you can come to our Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing for inspection. We can cooperate on any project you like."

"Yiyuan Zhizao's investment in the world over the years has always been mutually beneficial and win-win, rather than one-way pressure, which Mr. Da Buick can testify to. In addition, we also welcome Mr. Jiali's funds to invest in our Yiyuan Zhizao stocks, and the annual dividends are also very considerable."

In a country that lags behind China's industry by 40 years, any promise is not as real as providing a project to the other party.

This is also what Kerry and his gang need the most. This time Kerry was really moved.

Even a fool knows how high the wear and tear rate of packaging bags is. The person who delivers goods to the Navayi Fertilizer Plant every year is also Kerry's friend. He used to drive a broken Chevrolet, but now he has changed to a Mercedes-Benz.

In addition, the Japanese factories here also need packaging bags. Kerry has thought about this, but has been unable to find a way. So many Europeans and Americans are unwilling to provide technology to Kerry.

Now that Ji Donglai gave everything, Jiali's expression finally changed.

"Your people must be stationed on site for the first five years. I can provide anything you need. The project will be completely delivered only after we are fully operational. At the same time, you are required to provide some export orders. This cannot be ignored."

"We need everything from China, and we also hope that you can truly provide technology, not be as stingy as the Europeans and Americans. If this can be achieved, we can negotiate the price of gold!"

There is no fool among the people in charge of every company!

This is the iron law of the world. Whenever Jiali opens his mouth, Ji Donglai has to give him a thumbs up.

"No problem. We have data centers and service outlets in the local area. Whenever Mr. Kerry calls, our people will definitely be there within twelve hours."

"Of course, force majeure doesn't count. Let's talk about these projects first. I think it would be more appropriate for us to go to Fergana. What do you think..."

If you get into the right track, you will fall deeper.

This time, Ji Donglai not only took Jiali to Fergana, but also to Andijan.

The other party was completely impressed by the wide range of products under Ji Donglai's industry and wanted every project he saw. Among them, the synthetic paper project was the most interesting, ranging from packaging bags, fruit bags, writing and printing paper, packaging cartons, handbags, packaging boxes, KFC boxes...

For the first time, Jiali realized how narrow his knowledge was. He grabbed the calcium carbonate powder with both hands, put it in his mouth and tasted it. It was really stone powder. He quickly rinsed his mouth with tea and spit it out.

In another crushing workshop, the other party saw watermelon-sized calcium carbonate stones entering the crusher and then going through various screening processes to become powder.

A Roots pump cooperates with various metering instruments to blow the stone powder into the continuous internal mixer. After a few minutes, the snow-white synthetic paper appears on the curled abdominal muscles.

"I want to take on this project, Mr. Ji, we can have a good talk about the price of this project, and we need to negotiate the price of gold, silver is also OK, as long as the price of precious metals you need, we can negotiate."

"In addition, we can discuss cooperation with your foundry. I have no shortage of metals. As long as you are willing, we can have in-depth cooperation..."

Seeing such a profitable project in front of him, Kerry's heart was pounding.

Of course, this is also a taboo in business negotiations. Once you are tempted, the initiative is gone. Ji Donglai knew that the time had come.

Finally, the two men agreed on the price of gold at $1155 per ounce, valid for one year, and the equipment for the synthetic paper project would be delivered within three months.

Because the other party required a lot of achievable projects, Ji Donglai equipped them with 20 film blowing machines, 5 cast film machines, 3 thick paper machines, 6 continuous internal mixers and 20 coaters.

As for cutting and packaging, we need 20 of each. Printing is simpler, with two gravure and letterpress machines. After all, the Central Asian market has great potential, and there is also the Russian market for reference.

The early stage supporting jaw crusher, silo, material selection, supporting Roots pump pipeline, plus various lines, everything is miscellaneous.

The total value is US$35 million, and subsequent supporting services will be charged.

In addition, the Navai factory has signed a supply contract with Kerry for 150,000 sets of packaging bags and 10,000 sets of packaging boxes per year, and the remaining products will be determined based on the situation.

Glass wool factories, rock wool bases, glass bottle factories, stainless steel factories, and paper mills in the west will all place orders for packaging film based on Kerry's future production.

As for the shares of the Navai factory, Ji Donglai sold 1% for US$12 million.

At the foundry, Jiali and Ji Donglai negotiated for five full days before Ji Donglai agreed to purchase raw materials at a very low price, which made Jiali so happy that he couldn't sleep for several days.

For this payment, Kerry used all precious metals, from gold to silver.

The silver price is almost 1:85 to gold, 13.5 USD/ounce. All supplies are continuous and exclusive. Once Kerry defaults, Ji Donglai can take many measures to punish it.

Kerry delivered almost half of its precious metal inventory to Ji Donglai, half of which was used to pay for the goods, and the rest was purchased by Ji Donglai through the local settlement center.
