Chapter 697
After arriving in Sudan, the China-Africa Trade and Investment Promotion Mission was warmly welcomed by Chinese Ambassador to Sudan Mo Jianzhong, Commercial and Economic Counselor Du Dezhi and others.
During the two-day trip to Sudan, the delegation held friendly talks with Sudan's Minister of Finance and National Economy, Ali Mahmoud Mutafi and other political leaders, under the recommendation of Ambassador Mo Jianzhong.
In addition, the embassy also organized a dinner and invited local famous Chinese businessmen to attend.
However, what made Zhao Guoyang feel a little disappointed was that there are not many Chinese businessmen living in Sudan at present, which is much inferior to Ethiopia.
Moreover, most of these Chinese business industries are textiles, manufacturing, etc., and there is nothing surprising.
Zhao Guoyang wants to cooperate with energy and mining companies, but there is not even one.
It is no wonder that the situation in Sudan has always been unclear, and the conflict between the government and local indigenous peoples is very fierce. Both sides must be staring at each other and guarding against each other.
Not to mention foreign companies, even large enterprises in Sudan are trembling when they are sandwiched between them, for fear that they will accidentally stand in the wrong team, causing them to lose all their money and lose all their money.
After understanding this, Zhao Guoyang gradually resolved his doubts.
After all, things can't always go so smoothly. After Ethiopia achieved a good start, it was a good start, and there was no force on Sudan.
It should be said that in the past two days in Sudan, although there has been no progress in negotiations on the energy and mining resources that he wants most, Zhao Guoyang has not gained nothing.
He and Zhang Yufang reached a cooperation agreement with the Sudanese government departments on a "police motorcycle".
According to this cooperation agreement, Zhao Guoyang and Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company will provide at least 400 "bending beam vehicles" and 200 "strip motorcycles" to Sudanese government departments in each quarter in the next two years.
Of course, in brand owners, the Sudanese government is also restricting it very much - as long as the "Yamaha" brand.
After Zhao Guoyang obtained this cooperation agreement, he immediately communicated with the "Siyang Group" and obtained the guarantee of their priority supply.
In this way, Zhao Guoyang would no longer have any worries.
Six hundred vehicles in a quarter, and at least more than 4,000 motorcycles were shipped in two years. Although Zhao Guoyang made some concessions on price to the African brothers.
But there is still a certain profit margin. Coupled with the discounts given by the "Siyang Group", almost every motorcycle can bring nearly 200 US dollars in profits to "Xingtai International".
In this way, two young people can earn 700,000 or 800,000 US dollars easily.
The most important thing is that when trading with the Sudanese government, you don’t need to squeeze the goods and you can get cash directly.
Because of this good news, Zhao Guoyang showed a rare smile on his face when he boarded the plane and was about to leave.
As for Zhang Yufang sitting next to him, she was already as happy as a flower.
When the plane was taking off for the final preparation, Teacher Zhang couldn't help staring at Zhao Guoyang and said, "Mr. Zhao, your sales method is really amazing. You only rely on a sample car and ran back and forth on the prairie, and the Sudanese government believed you..."
After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang shrugged and said with a relaxed expression: "This is normal. I rode a motorcycle and ran back and forth on the nearby grassland. It only took me more than an hour. When I came back, there was no problem with the car. Can't this explain the problem?"
"Uh, that's what it means!"
Zhang Yufang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "To be honest, I don't know that Mr. Zhao, you are so smooth driving a motorcycle! I was so worried when I saw you test drive before!"
Listening to Teacher Zhang's concern, Zhao Guoyang waved his hand disregardedly and said, "If you can't drive this business, it's unreasonable."
Zhang Yufang said "Yes" and said, "It seems that after I go back, I have to buy a motorcycle and study hard. If there is no one to test the car when I go out for sale in the future, I can still support the situation!"
Zhao Guoyang was happy when he heard this, and shook his head with a smile and said, "Teacher Zhang, you should stop learning this motorcycle, it's enough to know how to drive a car."
Looking at Zhang Yufang's puzzled look, Zhao Guoyang explained: "Although our Xingtai International still attaches great importance to the sales of motorcycles, with the development of the world economy, cars will surely surpass motorcycles and become a transportation tool for people in most countries."
"So, it is enough for us to do the current ones in the motorcycle market. There is no need to develop more business, and there will be no too much profit. We should not do anything thankless!"
After Zhao Guoyang's explanation, Zhang Yufang nodded relievedly.
Thinking of the next country that was about to fly to, Zhang Yufang asked thoughtfully: "Mr. Zhao, do you already have a clear idea of the development direction of our Xingtai International in the next stage? It is the construction machinery and automobiles?"
Zhao Guoyang said "Yeah", nodded and said, "Well, these two pieces are big heads, and in addition, the automobile project is definitely the focus."
"As for the 'all-terrain vehicle', which is more entertaining, the price is not high, but the profit is very generous. We cannot ignore it, and we still have to invest a certain amount of energy..."
When Zhao Guoyang explained, Zhang Yufang kept listening carefully and silently remembering all of them in his heart.
After knowing this Mr. Zhao for so long, Zhang Yufang has habitually regarded him as the "backbone" and feels that as long as Zhao Guoyang is there, all problems can be solved.
Zhao Guoyang was not aware of Teacher Zhang’s blind confidence in himself.
After chatting with this right-hand assistant for a while, he yawned and said, "Teacher Zhang, the plane is about to take off, so hurry up and sleep for a while."
"The journey from Sudan to Cameroon is quite short, and you can't bear it if you don't sleep for a while."
"Okay, Mr. Zhao, I understand!" Zhang Yufang nodded gratefully and responded.
After consultations by the three leaders of the Trade and Investment Promotion Mission, everyone decided on the itinerary for the next few countries, namely Sudan-Cameroon-Nigeria-Zaire-South Africa.
Departing from Sudan to Cameroon, you can arrive at about two or three in the morning.
After delaying for a long time in Cameroon, he rushed to Nigeria, which was close to him on the same day.
Because Cameroon and Nigeria are very close and have similar economic types, the delegation has a choice and has a quick walk in Cameroon and then head straight to Nigeria.
In Nigeria, because we were going to participate in the "West Africa International Construction Machinery and Mining Machinery Exhibition", the delegation planned the longest stay time, reaching three days.
Afterwards, Zaire was also one of the major African countries. The initial visit time of the delegation was also located between two and three days.
Although Zaire is not ranked high in the GDP of African countries due to its backward economy, its domestic natural resources are even above Sudan, which are known as "world raw material warehouse", "central African gemstone" and "geological miracle".
There are many rare non-ferrous metals and non-metallic ores throughout the country, among which metals such as copper, cobalt, zinc, manganese, tin, tantalum, germanium, tungsten, cadmium, nickel, chromium and other metals and industrial diamonds are very reserved.
After Sudan's "failed to return", Zhao Guoyang's mining business in Africa had great hopes for expanding, and Zaire.
As for the last visit to South Africa, the delegation, Zhao Guoyang did not spend much time thinking.
Because he had already done a detailed understanding of the situation in South Africa before, he did not need to "crow temporarily".
Moreover, with the development of South Africa's economy, as long as you have money, you will definitely be able to negotiate business.
While staying in Sudan, Zhao Guoyang and Susanna made a phone call to confirm the "sunmoonstar trading company" that how much working capital can be used at the most.
There is no doubt that Zhao Guoyang is preparing to do a big fight in the following itinerary.
He asked Susanna about the funds, and wanted to use the money to directly destroy some undeveloped minerals in Zaire and South Africa.
Rearing on the chair, thinking about the "squandering" amount of $10 million that Susanna promised to him, Zhao Guoyang touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
To say ten million US dollars, in China in the early 1990s, it was definitely an astronomical figure.
Even for general large state-owned enterprises, total assets exceeding this number is unlikely.
It is indeed not easy for "sunmoonstar Trading Company" to make up so much money.
In fact, after Zhao Guoyang acquired a stake and became the largest shareholder of the "sunmoonstar Trading Company", his several correct decisions made this originally modest trading company become the largest trading company in Sao Paulo, Samba, and made a lot of money.
If it weren't for Susanna's recent acquisition of two iron ores in Rio de Janeiro, the company's funds could have doubled.
After hearing that Zhao Guoyang had found several more minerals in Africa, the young lady vowed to give Zhao Guoyang a guarantee and told him that the funding problem was easy to solve.
As long as Zhao Guoyang can wait a few more days, she can raise at least 10 million US dollars within three days.
The reason why this young lady dared to say such words is naturally because she was confident.
In fact, because the company's future is optimistic, "sunmoonstar" has now become a hot bun in the business and political circles of Sao Paulo.
Many people who are famous in the state of St. Paul have consulted Susanna and asked her if she could invest or not.
After receiving a call from Zhao Guoyang, Susanna mentioned this matter to him.
Zhao Guoyang has only one opinion on this: the company is absolutely welcome to local wealthy people who want to invest, but their money must come from clean.
The reason is simple, Susanna's father is about to arrive in two years.
If this boss resigns as governor, it is hard to say whether the "sunmoonstar Trading Company" can maintain its current momentum.
If someone is so angry that he picks up the problem from the company's investment funds to find fault, it will be more than worth the loss.
Susanna naturally accepted Zhao Guoyang's reminder completely.
