It was the middle of August, and after the rush of buying shares, the batch of light industrial equipment and technologies had arrived at Bing City. Those factory representatives who had paid the deposits had arrived a few days earlier with their cheques. They sat in Tai Hua Trading's office every day, afraid that something might go wrong.
Although they knew that the deposits had been paid, and Tai Hua Trading had sold the Soviet Union's advanced equipment more than once, they were still worried. What if someone else bought the equipment at a higher price?
At this time, the meeting room was filled with factory representatives. All of them were restless. Other than Feng Yu saying that the equipment would arrive today, it was also because Tai Hua Trading had banned smoking!
These people might not be heavy smokers, but how many of them who were in the sales or purchasing department did not smoke? It had been a few hours, and they were not even allowed to smoke!
Not only Tai Hua Trading, even Wind and Rain Logistics downstairs were the same. Whoever dared to smoke in the office or create any flames would be fined 100 RMB for the first offense and fired for the second offense!
Feng Yu had to be ruthless. There were more than 100 million RMB worth of shares in that storeroom! He mortgaged 100 million RMB of shares to Hong Kong's Citibank and HSBC and got a 120 million RMB loan. Feng Yu used all the money to buy the shares. From the north to the south, Feng Yu and his men even went to Shanghai.
Feng Yu even persuaded Li Shiqiang to use his shares as collateral. The shares that he bought were stored together with the rest of the shares in this "storeroom".
Moisture-Proof, insect-proof, fire-proof, anti-theft. Feng Yu made everyone remember these clearly. They must set an example. Wu Chih-gang and the rest's shares were also in the storeroom, and they agreed. If they were to burn their shares, they would have to commit suicide!
At first, some factory representatives were not willing to comply. What a joke! Not allowed to smoke? You think I don't know that you all smoke?
But when he lit up the fire, Wu Chih-gang told him to either stop the fire immediately and pay the fine or leave with the cheque. As for the deposit, according to the contract, they will return it to him before the end of the month.
Wu Zhigang's unyielding attitude had shocked all these people. They had heard that the people from Tai Hua Trading were bad-tempered, but after interacting with them, they realized that they were not bad people.
"Pujiang Textile Factory? Is the Pujiang Textile Factory here?"
"Coming, coming." A bespectacled man jumped up from his chair.
"Come with me. We'll go to the freight station to inspect the goods and hand over the inventory."
Five minutes later, another representative from the factory was called away. As the number of people dwindled, the remaining people became very restless.
Although they had received the notice and their equipment had arrived, why was it that everyone else had gone to hand over their equipment? Could it be that there was a problem with our equipment?
Although these machines were "obsolete" from the Soviet Union, the cost was still very high. Tai Hua Trading's prices were very low. All of them had been entrusted by the leaders of the factories to ensure that there would not be any problems, especially those factories that had purchased the technical information at the same time. They had sent the chief engineer or the deputy director in charge of the technical information, which showed how much importance they attached to this.
Feng Yu sat in the finance office and watched. After a while, a man accompanied by Tai Hua Trading's staff entered the office. He signed and handed over the cheque.
Feng Yu was also very careful to tell them that one of them would follow them to the bank to cash the cheque. This was to prevent anyone from cheating. If you give me a cheque with problems and try to delay the payment, I will snatch the contract back and tear it up. I will not even refund the deposit!
Although it would be troublesome to find a new buyer, it would take at most 1 to 2 weeks. Feng Yu's equipment was well maintained and was still advanced in China. The prices were also very low. Why would he worry about not selling?
"The textile equipment is sold. The money is in the account."
"The refrigeration machine production line is sold. The money is in the account."
"The cigarette equipment is sold. The money is in the account."
… …
Every half an hour, there would be someone reporting to Feng Yu, and the number of contracts in front of him was getting lesser.
"Mr. Feng, the first set of technical information has been verified. We can trade now." A Russian man walked in and said to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu nodded, and someone brought the contracts out. Kirilenko had sent someone to bring the technical information over, but Feng Yu did not intend to bring it himself.
If this equipment was found out, it would be hard for him to explain. It would be safer to let Kirilenko send someone to bring it over. He would be more assured to trade in Hua Xia.
Furthermore, these information must be verified by professionals. Feng Yu could not understand it. To him, these data were just numbers. What's the difference?
At the freight train station, there were many large equipment parts being unloaded and loaded onto the trucks. Some of them were even hooked up to the back of another train.
The workers at the freight train station knew that it was Tai Hua Trading's equipment. This Tai Hua Trading was impressive. This time, they could get so many industrial equipment from the Soviet Union. They were really capable!
Coincidentally, the workers from the Motor Factory were loading the trucks at the freight train station towards the south. Feng Yu went back and reported to the factory director that Tai Hua Trading's Soviet Union equipment had arrived. Feng Yu was not sure if he could use it.
Li Shiyou immediately drove over. He saw so many people waiting in Tai Hua Trading's meeting room. Could it be some advanced equipment?
"General Manager Feng, why didn't you inform me that the Soviet Union's equipment had arrived? Where is the equipment that I wanted? I have prepared the money! "
"Director Li, please take a seat. The equipment that the Motor Factory had ordered had not arrived yet. This time, they were purchasing light industry equipment and technologies. What you wanted were heavy industry equipment and technologies. It was a little difficult for you to get them. But I promise that I will get them for you next year! "
"Impossible. There are so many equipment in the freight station, and there is none that we can use?" Li Shiyou was not willing to give up.
Feng Yu passed a form to Li Shiyou: "Look at it yourself. Textile, home appliances, cigarettes, oil, food processing, sugar, wine. Which of these do you want? Just tell me, and I will break the contract and confiscate the equipment for you! "
None of these equipment were suitable for the Motor Factory. Feng Yu did not believe that Li Shiyou would really want them.
Li Shiyou frowned: "You are sending out light industry equipment in bulk. It is quite complicated. But our factory does not need any of these. This home appliance is manufacturing refrigerators? Never mind. I don't want any of them. "
The refrigerators from the last time were not selling well. Tai Hua Trading could only make some money after they got a batch of cheap compressors. Li Shiyou knew about this.
But if Feng Yu wanted to buy the equipment to produce the refrigerator, he would not be able to make much money. The market in the North was too small, and the transportation costs in the South were not low. This was not like small equipment like electric fans or humidifiers. It was a huge piece of equipment.
Light industry equipment in bulk? Feng Yu laughed. I like this sentence. But I prefer next year. Heavy industry equipment will be sent out in bulk!
