Because of the tax rate, the price of the European iPhone itself is more than 1,000 yuan cheaper than Hua Xia.
Magic crystal phones are more expensive here. From a common sense point of view, no one will buy a phone that is thousands of yuan more expensive than an Apple phone.
Fortunately, Monster Industries doesn't like to play by the rules.
It was still early the next day, and the flagship store was in full swing. Ye Qing called Yun Shi and asked her to accompany him to the address of other flagship stores in Bailin City.
According to the proportion of the population, Berlin has a total of seven flagship stores.
The location of each flagship store is an approximate area given by Monster Industries in advance, and then the local municipal government is responsible for coordination. It has to be said that the location of these seven flagship stores is not bad, and the price they give is in line with the market price that the company commissioned the information company to investigate in advance.
Germany is an industrial powerhouse, and it is reasonable that they want to have a relationship with Monster Industries.
As the second strongest economy, France's performance is somewhat bad. There are 26 flagship stores in France, and the location they give is inferior to that of Germany, and the price of commercial land is about 20% higher than the market.
But it doesn't matter, the wool comes from the sheep.
Monster Industries, which holds a number of monopoly technologies, will make astronomical profits from France without mercy.
In the Mercedes-Benz, Ye Qing and Yun Shi sat in the back row. In front is the Greek driver, and the Metal Expert as a bodyguard. The middle-aged driver only knows that Ye Qing is a senior executive of Monster Industries, but he doesn't know that Ye Qing is the biggest boss.
The first stop is going to the flagship store near Alexanderplatz. In terms of consumption strength, Alexanderplatz is a little inferior to Friedrichstraße. But it is Berlin's most famous historical attraction and one of the fixed venues for large-scale events in Germany. It attracts tourists from different countries like a magnet.
Ye Qing is the first time to Germany, but Ye Qing has a deep understanding of the country, of course, limited to the industrial understanding.
As early as when Ye Qing's family set up the factory, Ye Qing began to understand the country from the industrial aspect. His family's factory is a cutting machine manufacturing factory, and naturally, it is inevitable to use a lot of mechanical processing equipment. At that time, although they couldn't afford German equipment, the most important cutting tools for processing equipment could be bought in Germany.
Cutting tools were drills, milling cutters, and the like.
At that time, the domestic cutting tools were still in a terrible state. Even the simplest twist drill could not be made. In the market, Taiwanese, Japanese, and German products were the mainstream. Among them, Japan and Germany were the most expensive, but according to Ye Qing's experience, Japan's cutting tools were not bad, but the hardness of the materials was still a bit lower than those made in Germany.
Back then, Ye Qing had the deepest impression of a rare stepped drill. This drill was very beautiful. It was golden in color and had layers upon layers, just like a pagoda.
The step drill was a special-shaped drill. The drill tip to the drill tail had a conical structure. Using it to drill thin steel plates, one drill bit could achieve all the hole diameters within 2 millimeters to 3 centimeters. Japan's ladder drill could only drill steel plates up to two centimeters thick. If the thickness exceeded this, the drill would stick to the knife. The ladder drill was only suitable for opening holes in steel plates up to 3 millimeters, but at that time, the factory was poor. It could not be helped to open large holes in thick steel plates with ladder drill.
German ladder drill could open steel plates up to 4 centimeters thick. Although it could only open large holes, this thing had never stuck a knife. A drill bit could be used for two months. Japan's could only be used for a little more than a month, but the German brand was simply robbing money at that time.
Unlike the twist drill, the ladder drill could not be sharpened. It had to be thrown away when it was blunt. It had to be said that at that time, Ye Qing had practiced a very beautiful skill of sharpening drills. As long as the ordinary twist drill was not burned, it could be sharpened and used like a pencil.
Later, with the slow rise of domestic cutting tools, the price of imported drills dropped sharply.
At the beginning, a ladder drill cost more than 400 yuan. Now the same brand only costs 80 yuan, and the quality was better than at that time.
A ringing of the phone interrupted Ye Qing's feelings. The ringtone came from Yun Shi.
Yun Shi, who was looking at the scenery, quickly looked at the number and then handed the phone to Ye Qing. She was the president's assistant. During the work period, the president had a lot of calls to her.
The caller ID showed that it was St. Clair.
St. Clair's identity was not simple. He was a deputy minister of the German Ministry of Economy. The Monster Industries team in Germany was also led by him to come to the airport.
"Hello, Mr. St. Clair."
On the other side of the phone, St. Clair smiled a little embarrassedly. "Mr. Ye, I didn't disturb your work, did I?"
Ye Qing naturally said no. St. Clair continued, "The thing is, we have completed the installation of your company's equipment according to the requirements, and the liquid consumables are ready. It's just that our equipment is not working yet, and we need your technicians to come and unlock it. According to the agreement, the unlocking time arranged by your company is seven days. I know that Mr. Ye is busy with the flagship store, but Mr. Ye, please forgive us. We are a little anxious. "
"So, Mr. Ye, can you send a technician to unlock our equipment today?"
"The production base of the Ghost Armor is in Berlin. If your technician is free, I will send someone to pick him up."
"Hmm …" Ye Qing thought for two seconds on the phone, then smiled and said, "St. Clair is too polite. No problem, I will arrange it."
The liquid printer required the Monster Industries technician to activate it once. In fact, this was a password given to the internal encryption chip. After activation, the encryption chip would connect to the Monster Industries server through the network and send the equipment's working status. The chip in the machine would only start working after receiving the dynamic encryption password from the server.
If this restriction was not put in place, then fifty countries, one million percent of them, would be able to use liquid printers to print a large number of military and aerospace components.
The encryption chip was integrated with a storage device, and the storage device contained the operating program directly written by the system. Not to mention Germany, even the Monster Industries themselves could not break the operating program.
The program was the first firewall. Dian Jing put a "shell" on the outside of the program storage device. This "shell" would only transmit the operation command to the storage device and let the driver program work after receiving the dynamic encryption password from the Monster Industries server.
This was called preventing users from violating the rules.
In China, it was called the castrated version.
The contract stated that after each country finished installing the equipment, the technician would come and unlock it within seven days. Obviously, Germany did not want to wait even a day. In view of their friendly attitude, Ye Qing readily agreed to their request.
After hanging up, Ye Qing clicked his tongue. "Look, I was just praising Germany's industrial technology, and in the blink of an eye, they came to us with a request."
