054 Only Blame You Incompetence

"Mr. Zheng, I am very sorry to inform you that we made an error in our financial accounting before, so the 20% price increase was not our original intention." Fuyuan Oda said to Zheng Tao in front of him with a smile on his face.

Zheng Tao was stunned for a moment, and then became pleasantly surprised. The little devil finally realized his conscience for once and was no longer powerless to make trouble. However, he was not sure, "Can the 20% price increase you requested be cancelled?"

If the RB people cancel the price increase, negotiations will become easier.

The other party has played this kind of game not once or twice.

Every time some goals can be achieved, China will not have any advantage in this type of negotiation.

"What demands are you going to make in place of the price increase this time?" Looking at the kid's playful eyes, Zheng Tao's surprise quickly disappeared.

The people at Mitsubishi are very cunning and not easy to deal with.

Oda Fuyuan smiled and shook his head, "No, you misunderstood what I meant. We are not canceling this price increase, and we are not planning to replace it with other conditions. The financial calculation was wrong. In order to ensure the company's profits, the price was increased by 35%.

"

Zheng Tao's face instantly turned pale.

"It's too much! Two consecutive price increases within a week, directly to such an outrageous price! Your prices have been very high from the beginning, and you keep raising prices and adding additional conditions. Now the price is almost two times higher than the original price.

Twice that!" Zheng Tao gritted his teeth and said to the little devil.

If I had known earlier, I would have ignored the little devils' invitation today.

Unexpectedly, they actually increased the price again.

Moreover, this is the second price increase within a week, and it is still said so casually.

He wanted to kick the little devil away and make him roll as far as he could.

Reason made Zheng Tao hold back.

Oda Fuyuan shook his head and said, "Mr. Zheng, it has been almost two years since our initial negotiation. All kinds of costs are rising. If we reached an agreement two years ago, it wouldn't be like this, right?"

It's as if this is China's fault.

"If you hadn't been making things difficult for us, why would it have taken so long?" Zheng Tao laughed angrily.

A smile appeared on the corner of Oda Fuyuan's mouth, "It's obviously your own mistake!"

"You have to know that this is a three-axis CNC system! Internationally, it is a strategic equipment, and the Batumi embargo specifically states that it is embargoed to China! We are also taking a lot of risks in doing this, and naturally we need to have enough

It’s all about profit…”

"It's so risky!" Zheng Tao cursed in his heart, looked at Fuyuan Oda with a sullen face, and asked a cold question from between his teeth, "Why? Why is this like this? Most of us have asked for the various unreasonable conditions you have put forward before.

We all agreed, and the price is far higher than international prices! Even if you want to bundle and sell excavators worth hundreds of millions of dollars, we have agreed!"

Oda Fuyuan shrugged and spread his hands, "Today I am just informing you of this decision. I am not here to answer your why."

Fuyuan Oda enjoyed Zheng Tao's anger very much.

"If we don't make a decision as soon as possible, maybe our financial calculations are still wrong, or maybe our government will ban exports to you... Who knows." Oda Fuyuan still had a proud smile in his voice.

Zheng Tao's eyes were burning with anger, his hands were clenched into fists, and his veins were bulging.

He wanted to punch the little devil in the face like this regardless of the consequences.

In the end, reason defeated his anger.

It's easy to hit him with a punch, but you may be relieved, and the negotiation will be more difficult.

The little devils continue to raise conditions, raise prices, or require China to import the equipment they specify in other ways without being reasonable, and ask China to provide support in policy and other aspects.

If we beat him now, wouldn't it make them more arrogant?

"Actually, I sympathize with you. As the person in charge of technology introduction negotiations for a weak country, I can feel your humiliation. I even admire your endurance. But this cannot be blamed on us. If you want to blame us, you can only blame us.

You yourselves are incompetent! Your Chinese technology is too poor! Such a big country with such a large population can’t even come up with a CNC system!” The contempt on Oda Fuyuan’s face was not concealed at all. “Americans don’t

It will be sold to you, and there is no possibility for Europe. Unfortunately, the Soviet Union does not have a CNC system itself, otherwise you can still get it from them..."

His meaning is very obvious. If you don’t have Mitsubishi’s CNC system in China, you won’t be able to use it!

Moreover, this is still a fact before us.

Unless China can find other companies willing to export the system.

"Because of this, why are you asking for such high prices? Why are you putting forward all kinds of harsh conditions?" Zheng Tao's nails have sunk into the flesh of his palms.

Not only were veins popping out on his fists, but also on his forehead.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it's a fact." Fuyuan Oda smiled contemptuously.

"Do you really want to hit me now? Come on, hit me here!" Oda Fuyuan's smile became even bigger, and he came closer to Zheng Tao, "I hope you beat me up, and then we will have a reason to do it again."

times the price. The company won’t think our profits are too high.”

When Zheng Tao heard this, he trembled with anger.

But he could only endure his anger, look at the little devil's arrogant face, and then turn around and leave.

The kid is right, Mitsubishi is the only company willing to sell CNC systems to China.

Other companies either charge higher prices than Mitsubishi, have more stringent conditions, or require them to buy CNC machine tools instead of CNC systems.

The CNC machine tools that can be purchased are all ordinary precision small three-axis CNC milling or backward machining centers that are not strategic materials.

"Don't leave, come and hit me!" Oda Fuyuan shouted arrogantly as he watched Zheng Tao leave.

Zheng Tao's heart was about to explode. After hearing these words, not only did he not look back, but he walked faster.

"Oda-kun, you are going too far. If the Chinese reject our conditions and terminate the negotiations, we will have no way to explain to the company!" Masao Yoshikawa walked in.

Frowning, he looked at Fuyuan Oda.

China's behavior in the past few days is really weird. In the past, they were the ones who were holding back and were unwilling to negotiate with China.

This time, they directly raised the price by 20% and asked the Chinese side to double the business of Mitsubishi Engineering. In the past, the Chinese negotiating team would have been grinding with them every day. But this time, there was no reply, and they did not even express their agreement with their conditions.

of protest.

Today I took the initiative to invite the Chinese negotiating team to test it out, but Fuyuan Oda did this and the Chinese people were so angry that they turned around and left.

It's really a bit too much.

But this made Masao Yoshikawa feel very comfortable.

He just likes to bully Chinese people.

"Yoshikawa-kun, unless they can produce it themselves, there will be no accidents. Otherwise, they can only accept our conditions!" Oda Tomigen said proudly. "According to our understanding, there are so many scientific research institutions in China, but none of them can produce anything.

CNC system, otherwise they wouldn’t have been negotiating with us and accepting so many of our conditions!”

"Oda-kun is right. If we don't sell to them, the Chinese will have no use at all!" Saburo Ibebe also smiled. "The Chinese are not good at technology! They are too weak! If we don't bully them, we

Who are you bullying?"

Hearing what the two of them said, Yoshikawa Masao didn't say anything, but felt vaguely uneasy.

The behavior of the Chinese people is really too abnormal.

They were just angry when the price increased again and had no intention of entering negotiations immediately.

Zheng Tao didn't know how he left Jianguo Hotel.

In his mind, he kept thinking about Fuyuan Oda's words.

Just because there is no technology in the country, the country wants to introduce, digest and absorb it and then improve it on the basis. They seize the opportunity to humiliate China in this way.

It was not just him who was insulted, but the entire country’s technical workers!

However, the system is not available in China!

He did not return to the Ministry of Commerce. Things like this happen every day in the Ministry of Commerce. Various negotiation teams are faced with difficulties at every turn, and all kinds of technology introduction negotiations are extremely difficult.

Zheng Tao went directly to the First Machinery Department.

If someone from the First Machinery Department confirmed that Hongqi Machinery Factory indeed had the technology, he felt that he would give up Fugen Oda regardless of his future, slap him in the face and tell him that we in China no longer want your system!

"Old Wei, what's going on? Your people are leading the team, and I haven't received any news from here. Is there any accident?" Qian Xingguo's phone call came to Wei Guocheng's office again.

Wei Guocheng also has a headache now, and he hasn't heard from Luo Zhenxing for several days.

Especially the angry face of Zheng Tao in front of him, and he told the truth about how Mitsubishi Group humiliated China, which made him even more upset.

"There was no call from there. I called in the morning and no one answered. I don't know what they were doing." Wei Guocheng said helplessly.

Now we can only wait.

There is no news. Inspection groups composed of various research institutes and machine tool factories are already on their way.

If they are tricked by Zheng Yucheng, they won't be able to find a place to cry.

"I heard that Zheng Tao was almost mad to death in front of Mitsubishi people just now. Mitsubishi went too far by relying on our urgent need for technology..." Qian Xingguo's voice was also bitter.

"You knew it so soon?" Wei Guocheng looked at Zheng Tao who was still angry in front of him.

"I guess RB deliberately spread the word!" Qian Xingguo's voice was very low. "If we don't have a system, future negotiations will be too difficult."

Everyone on both sides knows that the negotiations are now on the verge of breakdown.

Currently, China can only obtain systems from Mitsubishi.

Mitsubishi has never thought about actually selling to China. It keeps increasing the price, but China can only endure it.

The three-axis CNC system is related to the development of domestic CNC machine tool technology, so the country decided to purchase a batch at a high cost and then conduct research and imitation.

Mitsubishi should know China's purpose, that's why it is like this.

"Chief, please call Hongqi Machinery Factory again." Zheng Tao took several deep breaths before calming down, "If not, no matter how humiliating it is, for the sake of domestic technological development, we can only endure and follow them.
