Chapter 1492 A Big Gamble by XCMG Machinery
As the boss of XCMG Machinery, Wang Min’s trip to the United States is definitely a gamble.
From an emotional point of view, I have been in charge of XCMG Machinery for six or seven years, and the relationship is definitely very deep.
Selling it to foreign investors and putting it on the guise of a foreign brand is definitely something Wang Min, who has a national brand heart, is unwilling to do.
However, the situation is stronger than the people.
On the one hand, the general trend of reform is there. The leadership team of Pengcheng is jealous of the dividends from the development of Beijiang next door, and they are the first to take action on XCMG Machinery.
On the other hand, it is also politically correct to replace a national brand with a foreign one.
Although Wang Min is full of ambitions as a national entrepreneur, he has to follow the trend and endure the humiliation.
However, in their contacts with Yiying foreign brands, Wang Min and the entire leadership team could not feel the sincerity of international capital.
Coupled with his determination, he dragged himself down under the pressure.
But if it continues like this, no one can guarantee how long it will be delayed? Even Wang Min knew very well that he was risking losing his hat.
But when he thought of the tens of thousands of brothers and sisters of XCMG Machinery, he gritted his teeth and kept going.
Until I heard two days ago that a capital company called Tianqi Investment was investigating XCMG Machinery's information and even expressed interest in acquisitions.
Wang Min sent someone to check this capital company, and it turned out to be Huaxia Private Capital.
This is not in line with the current development trend.
Even though Wang Min was a little moved, he had to admit that this was the case.
Later, when chatting with the vice president, Wang Min heard that this was Huaxia Wu's capital company. The development of Beijiang can be said to be the influence of this person!
Wang Min stood up at that time, walked around the office three times with his hands behind his back, and then asked his secretary to book a flight ticket to California.
Just so decisive.
It's that simple.
It's a big gamble.
Standing under the tall office building, Wang Min took a deep breath, tightened the leather bag under his arm, and walked into the global strategy office of Huaxia Wu, ignoring the thick dust on his shoes and the old stains on his suit.
When Wu Tao met Wang Min for the first time, he felt that this man fit the image of an entrepreneur born and raised in China.
He has firm eyes, unruly dress, steady attitude and polite words.
So the two of them shook hands and exchanged pleasantries for a few minutes, "Mr. Wang, your arrival surprises me. But I welcome you even more!"
Wang Min listened with sincerity and fear, and even ignored the age difference and said: "Mr. Wu, as an outstanding talent in Beijiang, I should have paid a visit long ago. I am late today, so please don't take it wrong, Mr. Wu."
However, while the two of them were chatting lively, Qin Xiaoxiao next to them watched with cold eyes.
She had already made up her mind that even if the two of them were good enough to wear a pair of pants today, she must insist on her professionalism and give the most objective judgment and advice.
So as expected, Wang Min's enthusiasm was ignored by Qin Xiaoxiao.
But Wang Min didn't mind at all, and Wu Tao didn't mind at all.
The two parties took their seats separately, and Wu Tao directly ordered Liu Ruoxi to bring out the best tea he had here.
This kind of treatment made even Liu Ruoxi look at Wang Min with admiration. She quietly gave Qin Xiaoxiao a look that said, "I wish you luck" and walked out.
After the tea was served, Wu Tao and Wang Min were drinking tea while chatting about anecdotes about Jiangdong Province.
Of course, this is both a warm-up and an opportunity to get to the point.
However, Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't help it anymore and cut in straight to the point: "Mr. Wang, you are really well-informed, which I admire very much."
Even though the words were harsh, Qin Xiaoxiao said them politely.
This is professionalism in business negotiations. It all depends on how you negotiate.
In this regard, Wang Min still said with the attitude of 'you can't hit the smiling person': "Mr. Qin, it's all my fault for being slow. If I had known that Tianqi Investment intended to investigate XCMG Machinery, I would have asked the subordinates to fully cooperate and guaranteed No fraud, everything can be checked!”
"That's not necessary, Mr. Wang." Qin Xiaoxiao said in a formal tone: "Tianqi Investment has the most professional research team. Even if the surveyed unit does not cooperate, it can still obtain the most scientific first-hand data. This is our specialty."
"Yes, yes," Wang Min couldn't help but wiped the sweat from his forehead. This damn girl is really powerful.
There are no weak soldiers under a strong general. The famous Huaxia Wu next to him has not spoken yet. He has suffered today, which is really not easy to bear.
But when you are beaten, you have to stand up straight, and when you are scolded, you have to be close to your ears.
In order to prevent the Chinese national brand from falling into the hands of foreign fathers, I have to endure the humiliation and bear the heavy burden no matter how difficult it is today.
So Wang Min gritted his teeth, changed his sitting position, and took the initiative in the conversation, "President Qin, President Wu, XCMG Machinery has been adhering to the steady and steady approach of the old Pengcheng people since its establishment 16 years ago, and has developed step by step until today."
"It can be said that when the outside world mentions Pengcheng, everyone knows about XCMG Machinery. When the construction industry mentions construction machinery, everyone knows about XCMG Machinery."
“To this day, I feel that XCMG Machinery has two great assets. One is tens of thousands of respectable and lovely brothers and sisters, and the other is this golden brand built by generations of XCMG workers after 16 years of hard work. "
"Such a good national brand is said to be sold to foreigners cheaply in order to comply with the WTO and the tide of economic development. I, Wang Min, am the first to be unhappy. Why do we have to work hard for more than ten years and end up making wedding clothes for others?"
This... has passed, but too much is not enough.
Just when Wu Tao was silently worried about Wang Min, Wang Min stopped talking. Instead, he took out a stack of information from his bag and placed it on the tables in front of the two of them.
"Mr. Qin, Mr. Wu, these information are the lifeblood of XCMG Machinery and my greatest sincerity during this thousands-mile trip. Please accept them."
The demeanor of this older generation of entrepreneurs really moved Wu Tao.
Even Qin Xiaoxiao, who always had a look of disdain on his face, calmed down and replaced it with a look of respect.
Wu Tao flipped through the information Wang Min brought and finally spoke for the first time.
However, what surprised Wang Min was that Huaxia Wu's first speech was not to him, but to Mr. Qin opposite.
"Mr. Qin, let me tell you what I value about XCMG Machinery. First, the brand has a higher value; second, it is close to Beijiang, and it is an enterprise in Jiangdong Province. It is well-informed and not too watery; third, it is corporate culture; Fourthly, sincerity is enough, and you saw it today."
Regarding her boss, Qin Xiaoxiao had to respond directly: "Boss, Mr. Wang, I have to admit that XCMG Machinery is an excellent national enterprise. Frankly speaking, when I was in college, I did research on the company and wrote Wrote a big paper."
"But today our intentions must be based on science and data as the criterion. The excellence of XCMG Machinery is still slightly inferior to that of Sany Heavy Industry in all aspects. This is the result I have obtained after doing everything possible to investigate and demonstrate. .”
"In addition, although Sany Heavy Industry is a Hunan enterprise, its background is simpler and purer than XCMG Machinery..."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qin," Qin Xiaoxiao was interrupted by Wang Min before he finished speaking: "When it comes to the background of Sany Heavy Industry, I'm afraid I have more say than you..."
