Under the leadership of Joseph, Xia Lei went up to the first floor of the office building and then came to an office. ￥f Dingdian said,... In the office he saw Mark Amin, CEO of Rheinmetall, a German with brown hair, in his early fifties, tall and slightly fat.
"Mr. Mark, this is Xia Lei from China." Joseph introduced Mark Amin, but he didn't even bother to use the most basic honorific of "sir". It seemed that Anina polished Xia Lei's shoes and wiped Xia Lei's soles clean with her butt, which really aroused him.
Mark Amin raised his head and glanced at Xia Lei, but did not stand up. He just said lightly: "Please sit down." Then he continued to read a document in front of him, with no intention of talking to Xia Lei immediately.
"Mr. Mark, I'm out." Joseph.
Mark Amin just nodded his head in response.
Xia Lei smiled bitterly and walked to the sofa. When passing by Mark Amin's desk, he glanced at the document Mark Amin was looking at.
That document was the document issued by the German government to Rheinmetall regarding this cooperation. Although Xia Lei only took a quick glance, he would never forget what he saw.
"It's obviously a mutually beneficial transaction and has great benefits for both sides, but these Germans still look down on Chinese workers. Otherwise, Mark Amin wouldn't be so arrogant." Xia Lei thought in his heart .
Mark Amin continued to read his documents, completely ignoring Xia Lei's existence. Xia Lei was not in a hurry and sat quietly on the sofa waiting. Just waiting, Mark Amin's secretary didn't even come in to make him a cup of coffee or something. From the appearance of Joseph to the Mark Amin in front of him, it is not difficult to see that the German side actually did this on purpose. They put on a condescending attitude, as if telling Xia Lei that Thunder Horse Military Factory and the technology of Thunder Horse Military Factory were nothing in their eyes!
From a market perspective, Thunder Horse Military Factory and Rheinmetall are actually competitors. The former is a dark horse of Huazhong Industry, which has made a name for itself in the world and is in the limelight. Rheinmetall is the leader of Germany's industrial industry, so it's not surprising that Rheinmetall CEO Mark Amin treats Xia Lei with such an arrogant attitude. He is sending a signal to Xia Lei - Chinese workers must bow their heads in front of German workers!
It took a full ten minutes for Mark Amin to put away the document. He stood up and walked towards Xia Lei. Without shaking hands, he sat directly opposite Xia Lei and said, "You are Mr. Xia Lei from Thunder Horse Military Factory?" Founder.”
Xia Lei said: "It's me, Mr. Mark, nice to see you." Then, he stood up and extended his hand to Mark Amin.
Mark Amin then stood up and shook hands with Xia Lei, but it was only symbolic.
"Mr. Mark, when can we talk about cooperation?" Xia Lei went straight to the topic.
"There's no rush." Mark Amin smiled, "Let's talk first."
"What do you want to talk about?"
"I heard Joseph, you seem to have a German name, Lucas, and worked for a period of time at Krupp Mark Machinery Manufacturing Company. It was during that time that you met Sister Anina, who is no?"
Xia Lei said: "Mr. Mark, I don't know where you are. This is my first time in China. I don't know who your Lucas is. He and I may have some similarities, but I am not him. "
Even if Joseph and Mark Amin obtained some information from a certain channel, he was not worried that it would bring him any real trouble. After all, that incident had passed a long time ago, and Long Bing and the agents of Bureau 101 handled the matter very cleanly, leaving no evidence or clues for Germany to trace. So, even if they guessed that he was the Lucas now, it would be of no use.
Mark Amin said: "Okay, I assume you are that Lucas. You got the technology of intelligent machine tools from Joseph, and then you improved that intelligent machine tool. Now, you use our technology in exchange for yours We need fighter engine technology. Mr. Xia, you are really a very smart person."
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Mr. Mark, your hypothesis is very interesting. You Germans occupied our Qingdao during the Qing Dynasty, and used Qingdao's resources and the blood and sweat of Qingdao people to deliver blood to Germany after World War I and help your Germany Rapid rise. Should I also assume that you Germans are very smart?"
Mark Amin frowned immediately. He obviously didn't like this method.
Xia Lei said: "Mr. Mark, you European and American countries have adopted a technological blockade against us. Some technologies are not even for military use, but for civilian use. Those technologies can help human development, but you still block those technologies. In your case In my eyes, will China’s manufacturing always remain at the level of producing socks and shirts? Will China always have to OEM for you, producing socks and shirts that you disdain to produce? Today, I represent Hua** Industry Come, cooperate with you, we have a mutually beneficial relationship. But you told me about Lucas, and I stole your technology. Since you have such technology, why do you need to exchange with me? "
This was Xia Lei's attitude. The other party's arrogance had already touched his bottom line.
Since repeated forbearance cannot solve the problem, he might as well put down his face and show his cards!
"Haha." Mark Amin laughed dryly, "Mr. Xia, we were just chatting casually, why are you reacting so hard?"
"I think you should give me the most basic respect. I'm not here to ask you to give us anything. This is a mutually beneficial transaction." Xia Lei.
A trace of displeasure flashed in Mark Amin's eyes, and he shrugged, "In this case, there is no need for us to talk any more. Let's do this, I will send someone to arrange accommodation for you. Tomorrow we will Let’s talk again.”
Xia Lei stood up, "You are free to talk when you want, but what I want to tell you is that I don't have to talk to you. This deal was finalized between your German government and us. If those people above know I don’t think they will be happy with your attitude, right?”
"Haha. Mr. Xia, this is Germany. The business owners over there may care about the leader's wishes, but I don't care." Mark Amin also had a disdainful smile on his lips.
Xia Lei said calmly: "If this is the case, then I don't think there is any need for us to cooperate anymore. I will write a report to our side, and I will leave here and return to China now. Your people will also be back soon. "
Mark Amin was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
Xia Lei said: "My point is very simple. I don't have to exchange fighter engine technology with you Germans. I can contact the Russians, Italians, French, British or even Israelis at any time. But what you want Things, but only I have them here.”
This is Xia Lei's confidence. The L500 sniper rifle and the Gale assault rifle are the only ones in the world. Now armies around the world want to equip these two infantry weapons. These two infantry weapons can only be manufactured by the Thunder Horse Military Factory, let alone the super comprehensive intelligent machine tool built by Xia Lei. He holds such resources in his hands. If he wants to exchange fighter engine technology with other countries, is he still worried about not being able to exchange it? But Germany is different. What they want can only be obtained from Xia Lei's hands.
"Haha..." Mark Amin smiled awkwardly, and suddenly changed his attitude, "Mr. Xia, if my words and deeds are offensive in any way, please forgive me. But there is no need for you to make things difficult for both of us because of this matter." The deal fell through, right? I admit, you can probably get what you want from somewhere else, but I assure you, Made in Germany is the best, and you should believe in our strength and work with us. The wisest choice.”
"Aren't I standing in front of you? I came to talk to you about work, but you asked me to come tomorrow." Xia Lei.
"No, no, no, let's talk now." Mark Amin followed: "Please sit down, please sit down."
The fact is that Mark Amin could not care about the wishes of relevant German government officials, and could even make a fuss with those officials, but he could not bear the losses caused by Xia Lei's conclusion of this transaction. In that case, he would not be able to explain to Rheinmetall's board of directors, and he might even be fired!
In the office, Mark Amin and Xia Lei talked about cooperation.
The women in the reception room were also talking, but about other things.
"Anina, if you are willing to shine Xia Lei's shoes, you are also willing to wash his clothes and pants, right? Well, you are also willing to wash his underwear, right?" Tang Yuyan put her arm around Anina's shoulders, her attitude was affectionate, like a best friend.
"Of course I do." The German woman was rather arrogant, so she couldn't imagine Tang Yuyan's motive for asking such a question.
Long Bing coughed and said, "Anina, think about it, not everyone is as innocent as you."
Tang Yuyan rolled her eyes at Long Bing and continued: "Anina, if you are willing to wash Xia Lei's underwear, Xia Lei is willing to build a house for you."
"It's a castle."
"Oh, yes, yes, it's a castle." Tang Yuyan smiled sweetly, "Then do you have that kind of relationship?"
"What's the relationship?" Anina suddenly became alert.
"The relationship between lovers."
"You and him are lovers."
Tang Yuyan, "..."
In the same conference room, Liu Zhengnan felt awkward and uncomfortable. The three women ignored him as always, barely looking at him, and completely treating him like nothing. Moreover, the topic they talked about was so "best friends". He didn't listen to it, and it didn't matter if he didn't listen. It was very uncomfortable.
A German woman came in and said very politely: "Ladies and gentlemen, please come with me. I will take you to your residence. If you need anything, you can ask me and I will try my best to meet your requests." "
Liu Zhengnan breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Yuyan looked at Long Bing, "Long Bing, can we stay in the same room?"
Long Bing said: "No."
Tang Yuyan chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll stay in a room with Xia Lei."
Long Bing and Anina stared at Tang Yuyan, their reactions were synchronized.
Liu Zhengnan sighed, "Dr. Xia, you must have been a flower-picking thief in your last life, right?"
