This Seems Like a Good Idea
Chapter 775:This Seems Like a Good Idea
This meeting is for both sides.Matsk understood the Chinese determination and was a little more pessimistic about Captain Cook's project.Feng Xiaochen learned the attitude of European companies from Matsk's plan, and also felt that European companies were at the end of the strong, without much leading edge, so they were so self-deprecating, for fear of being learned by the Chinese.
He recalled a visit to Pumay Company with Yang Haifan nearly 20 years ago, when Heinzl, who was a guide, threatened to take pictures casually, without worrying that the Chinese would become their own competitors.Today, Europeans, on the one hand, coveted the money in the pockets of the Chinese, and on the other hand, they cover the technology strictly and strictly, and dare not let the Chinese people contact, which can explain a lot of problems.
Feng Xiaochen returned to Bonn with the attendants and informed him of the talks with Matsk, and Yanleqin was also full of emotion.Feng Shuyi was a bit of schadenfreude, laughing and saying to Feng Xiaochen: "It's worth it, how many technologies you have stolen from our Europe over the years, and now we Europeans are also learning smart, and you will not let them steal our technology."
Feng Hua felt that his wife's words were a little too much, and quickly rebuked: "Shu Yi, how can you say this?"They have introduced technology from Europe in the past, they are in accordance with the law, and they are voluntarily transferred technology by European companies, how can they be stolen?”
Feng Shuyi, of course, is not really have any opinion on China, she is a German, but some traditional Chinese women's thinking of marrying chickens is to think of herself as a Chinese daughter-in-law in her heart.“I’m talking about a view of the European industry right now that a lot of people think that the Chinese are stealing European technology and in turn competing with European companies, which is the reason for Europe’s decline,” she explained.
Feng Xiaochen said: "Europeans just find themselves a step."The principles of free trade were marketed to China by Europeans, and technology transfer was itself part of free trade.When we introduced technology from Europe, we paid for tuition.The Europeans sold us their obsolete technology and charged us a lot of technology transfer fees.Today, we are able to compete with European companies based on independent innovation based on digestion and absorption of European technology.Europeans clearly have technical advantages, but do not pay attention to innovation, which is what we catch up with, how can we blame us?"
“Yes, other friends I know have the same view that the root cause of Europe’s decline is its own depravity,” Feng said.
Feng Hua saw that the two sides had reached an agreement, so he pulled back the topic and asked Feng Xiaochen: "Whising Chen, since you can't talk to Captain Cook, what are you planning?"
Feng Xiaochen said: "I have discussed with President Wang and Yang, and we are ready to build a research center in the Netherlands to absorb European marine oil experts to work in the center and cooperate with domestic research institutions."Yes, Huang Ming is the director of the research center that we have provisionally identified, and he will have to support him in Europe in the future."
"Grandma Yan, I will hire you as the honorary director of our center, and you will guide me more."Huang Ming said skillfully to the harp.
Huang Ming is also an old man of the equipment company, but these years have been lacking the opportunity to be alone.This time, Feng Xiaochen said that he would build a research center for a six-generation drilling platform in Europe, which was docked with a large-scale research project with domestic investment of 100 billion yuan, and Huang Ming could not help but be moved.Just as Feng Xiaochen also had the idea of giving Huang Ming a chance, so after a simple exchange of views with several other leaders of the equipment company by phone, Feng Zhichen directly appointed Huang Ming as the director of the center, and there was a word "temporary" in front.If Huang Ming wants to erase these two words, he really has to make some achievements.
Feng Hua said: "Wang Chen, you mean I understand, but Captain Cook's project is the participation of a number of large companies in Europe, many of the offshore oil experts are either employees of these companies, or also have long-term cooperation with these companies, how can they come to work with you?" 」
Feng Xiaochen said: "It doesn't matter, my idea is to talk better than nothing."Europe has some experts and engineers who are outside the big business, right?In addition, even if you work with experts who work with those companies, if Captain Cook's project is delayed, these companies can stop them from working with us first."
“Your premise is that Captain Cook cannot start, is that it’s too optimistic?”Feng Hua asked.
Feng Xiaochen said: "We went to the Captain Cook project committee this time, in terms of my feelings, I think this project is yellow.I told Matsk about this, and he did not contradict me, so there is no bottom in his heart."
“This can be difficult.”Feng Hua frowned, “If even the chairman of the committee is not confident, it is estimated that the companies will be even less likely to invest, at least until they see the hope of a successful project, they will be cautious.”
Feng Xiaochen smiled and said: "And if most companies are cautious and refuse to invest first, then how can there be hope for success in this project?"
Feng Hua also laughed and said, "I think Matsk is very busy during this time, he has to try to persuade the companies to put the promised funds into place."
Feng Xiaochen said: "Originally, if Matsk can accept us, with China involved in this project, we will certainly have more confidence."If I were Matsk, even if I really don’t want us to participate, at least we should make a negotiating gesture, and it would be better to post some news in the media that China is interested in participating to strengthen the confidence of shareholders.Sadly . . .
“Whising, is the Chinese government sure it won’t participate in Captain Cook’s project?”Feng Shuyi asked.
Feng Xiaochen nodded and said, “It should be certain that you will not participate, unless the other party prescribes superior conditions that we cannot refuse.”This condition must be better than we originally hoped, otherwise we will not eat grass."
If so, why don’t you announce the news?Feng Shuyi asked with a laugh.
“What news?”Feng Xiaochen did not react.
Feng Shuyi said, "It is the news that the Chinese government does not participate in Captain Cook's project."
"Why, hey, that seems like a good idea."Feng Xiaochen only stood for half a second to understand the meaning of her aunt.I have to say that Feng Shuyi, as a patent lawyer, is well-informed about all kinds of intrigue.Feng Xiaochen, as the authorities did not think of things, Feng Shuyi first thought of.
“Aunt, can you help us get in touch with some media?”It is better not to do this in our name, or it will be over."Feng Xiaochen said.
Feng Shuyi smiled and said, “This is easy, and we often have to deal with journalists.”I will reveal this to them and let them go to Matsk for proof.Once the media advertises that the Chinese refuse to cooperate with the Captain Cook project, and the Chinese government intends to spend a lot of money to conduct research independently, I think their shareholders will make the right decision.”
"They're going to put their pockets more solid."He smiled and said something to his aunt.
“You two really like to conspire, I don’t like it!”Yan Leqin looked at Feng Shuyi and Feng Xiaochen, and when she said this, she still had a smile on her face, so that people knew that she was just talking casually.The old lady is indeed a well-behaved person, and does not like to engage in conspiracies, but these conspiracies of daughter-in-law and grandson are in the interest of the country, and the old lady will naturally not oppose it.
Feng Xiaochen and others stayed in Europe for a few days, and then returned home by plane.Before leaving, he also gave a joint interview to several European media about the Captain Cook project and the Zheng He plan.Previously, Feng Xiaochen had instructed several media to interview Matsk to prove the Chinese government's involvement in Captain Cook's project, Matsk repeatedly concealed, but he could not deny the results of the collapse of the two.After the interview with Matsk, the reporters went to Feng Xiaochen to prove that it was a logical thing to do, and it would not be realized that the driving force behind this group of reports was the Chinese.
As Feng Shuyi and Feng Xiaochen envisioned, several media outlets hyped Captain Cook and Captain Zheng, which attracted some attention from European industry.The Chinese government’s refusal to join the Captain Cook project means that the project’s financing channels have narrowed a few points, and China’s separate launch of the Zheng He project poses a serious threat to the Captain Cook project.From the perspective of investors, more competitors such as China, the risk of Captain Cook's project has increased, and even if it can be successful, its market value will be greatly reduced, because it has lost the Chinese market, and it is well known that the Chinese market is the most valuable.
Heinzl and others are firmly opposed to absorbing China into the Captain Cook project, but at the same time, they claim that their company cannot increase investment, and the investment that has been promised should be paid in stages, and the first stage is sloppy to pay 5%.In fact, as far as Heinzl's own wishes are concerned, he hopes that the shareholders' enterprises can increase their investment, so as not to let the Chinese come to the top.
But the problem is that he can’t be the boss of the company, even the CEO of the company, and the company’s shareholders can’t take charge, because the company’s shareholders smell some bad taste from the media, so they force the CEO to reconsider investing in Captain Cook’s project.Not all of the company's shareholders are engaged in industry, a considerable part of it comes from the financial industry, in the eyes of these bankers, profits are the most important, as far as the technology is in the hands of Europeans or in the hands of the Chinese, it does not matter.Some people even turned to Feng Hua’s head and asked if he could invest in the Chinese Zheng He plan through Feng Hua’s good-nitter, who wielded authority.
