Chapter 901: COSCO Came to the Door (Second Shift)

ADM, Cargill, Bunge and GavilonGroupLLC, the four largest suppliers of grain products in the U.S. grain market, have been struggling for a few days for the simple reason that the American Farmers Association, which had been standing in the same trenches as them, suddenly attacked them.

At first, they denied it, but in the face of the evidence presented by Wright, vice president of the American Farmers Association, the four major grain merchants were collectively speechless: in the face of such hard facts, what else do they have to deny?

I originally thought that the lucky German was a little sheep who was easy to bully, but I didn't expect that this bastard was a wolf who had been wearing sheep's clothing, and by accident, he was bitten by this wild wolf...... Holger. Breich is easy to do, the key is that in the face of this evidence, when the grain purchase contract is signed again this year, how much does his company have to increase per ton? The greedy farmers don't stand idly by while they make money.

But now, these have nothing to do with themselves, as Holger. In return for providing such an important piece of information to the Farmers Association, the American Farmers Association had promised the bastard Holger 730,000 tons of various grains at a price 12 percent below the market price...... For the American Farmers Association, whose membership covers 97.2 percent of farmers in the United States, this is not difficult.

It is said that at this time, Lin Hongfei could already take the procurement contract signed with the American Farmers Association and leave directly, but in fact it was not the case, Lin Hongfei was stopped.

"Hello, is it Mr. Lin Hongfei of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd.?" The person in front of him greeted him politely and spoke Mandarin that he was extremely proficient in, but that didn't hide the seriousness and rigidity that seemed to have been rigorously trained. It's like an industrial product coming down from an assembly line, so you can't fault it, but it always makes people feel out of place with everything around them: this is the image of those expatriate workers in the early 90s.

"I am," Lin Hongfei nodded casually, "May I ask who you are?" ”

"Hello, I am a staff member of COSCO Group's US office, my name is Li Kun," After speaking, when he showed Lin Hongfei his work card, he also specially added. "The predecessor of our company was the Republic Ocean Corporation, and the name was just changed this year......

"I know," Lin Hongfei raised his hand to stop him, "Let's just say it, what's the matter?" ”

"That's right. We have just received news that Mr. Lin's company plans to purchase about $100 million in various grains in the U.S. market. This includes wheat, corn and rice. I would like to ask, is this true? ”

It could be seen that Li Kun's expression was a little nervous, but he stared at Lin Hongfei's eyes, obviously, through Li Kun's action. Lin Hongfei deliberately could see that COSCO Group was very interested in his work.

Also, the current COSCO Group is not the future of the world's top 500 and the world's second largest shipping industry, although they are already the largest shipping company in China, but within the scope of the world. At best, it can only be regarded as a second-rate shipping company, and with the crazy hope of state-owned enterprises in this era to earn foreign exchange, it seems that it is not difficult to find their own head.

"There is such a thing, let me correct it, it is not a plan, we have signed a procurement contract with the American Farmers Association, and the American Farmers Association will provide us with the products we need," Lin Hongfei's heart moved, but he thought of another thing, and couldn't help but look at Li Kun twice, "Well, you COSCO are interested in taking this job?" ”

"Interested, of course interested," Li Kun couldn't believe his ears, nodded desperately, and his excitement was overflowing, "Mr. Lin, I came here to talk to you about this." ”

Before coming to contact Lin Hongfei, he was ready to hit a wall, but he didn't expect Lin Hongfei to be so talkative, and took the initiative to ask himself if COSCO Group was interested in this work...... Can't you be interested? If you're not interested, how can you end up here?

"Then let's find a café to talk," Lin Hongfei smiled and pointed to the middle-aged German man next to him, "This is Holger. Mr. Breuich, the German shareholder of the Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., must be made known to Mr. Holger about this matter. ”

After listening to Lin Hongfei's translation, Holger, who was pretending to be cool with a straight face, nodded again and again: As a working boy, it's not what the boss says?

…………………………………………

"Mr. Lin, we can offer your company the best price, as long as you use US dollars as the payment method," just sat down in the café, and before Lin Hongfei could speak, Li Kun opened his mouth in great anxiety, "Please rest assured, the company will allocate the best transportation capacity to ensure the successful completion of the transportation task." ”

Lin Hongfei understands very well the fanaticism of state-owned enterprises in this era that does not let go of the opportunity to earn dollars, but this is not Lin Hongfei's purpose, he waved his hand and said, "No, you just need to ensure that your prices are competitive, and you are not required to give the best price...... I'm just a little skeptical, 730,000 tons of grain, an average of more than 60,000 tons per month, can your company pull out so much capacity? ”

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, it's only 60,000 tons per month, as long as you hand over this batch of goods to us, you can rest assured...... Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is also a state-owned enterprise, we are still a family, can you still believe the credibility of state-owned enterprises? Hearing that Lin Hongfei took the initiative to say that he didn't want the lowest price, Li Kun became more and more energetic, in order to be able to pull this business that can earn tens of millions of dollars in foreign exchange, he immediately patted his chest and asked Lin Hongfei to package the ticket, "After I go back, I will report this matter to the director of the group's office in the United States, and the director will come over to talk to you about this matter immediately." ”

"That's ......" Lin Hongfei hesitated a little, he didn't think it was worth delaying himself for so long, "Mr. Holger will always stay in the United States during this time, why don't you contact Mr. Holger directly?" Well, the company is negotiating with the Belarusian government, and I need to rush over there. ”

Li Kun has Holger on hand. Breuich's information, knowing that this is a German billionaire, and he is also one of the four major shareholders of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., but dealing with a foreign billionaire is obviously not as convenient as dealing with a Chinese person. Broich, looking at Lin Hongfei with a smile on his face, immediately shook his head, "Comrade Hongfei, if possible, I personally ...... Well, it's just me, and I hope you talk about it. ”

"Oh?" Lin Hongfei raised his eyebrows: What does this mean?

Of course, Li Kun would not say that he was unwilling to go with Holger. For the sake of Breuich's dealings with foreigners, he looked at Holger. Broich glanced at it and lowered his voice, "Comrade Hongfei, after all, you are working in the system, this can also be regarded as your work achievement, right?" ”

As he spoke, he patted Lin Hongfei on the shoulder, "Everyone is their own person, and there is no reason for their own people not to take care of themselves, right?" ”

The words sounded right, but as long as he noticed Li Kun's slightly flickering eyes, Lin Hongfei decided to believe that he was the hell, although he smiled, he shook his head firmly, "I'm really sorry, I really need to rush to Belarus immediately...... In this way, we Guqi Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. need COSCO to be on our side, and in return, Guqi Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will give COSCO no less than 100 million US dollars in waybill contracts in the next five years; Of course, COSCO can also choose to refuse, but after the completion of this batch of Uruguay delivery contracts, we will turn to other shipping lines to sign contracts. ”

The matter of transporting all kinds of construction materials to South America was naturally handed over to COSCO, who made them the largest shipping company in China, even if they didn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, they still had to take care of their own people, but if they really changed...... That's a replacement.

Li Kun's forehead suddenly began to sweat.

Although he didn't know what it was about Lin Hongfei to have COSCO on his side, the thing that could make Lin Hongfei take out an order of 100 million US dollars to lure and take out a South American Uruguayan waybill to threaten would not be so small, he squirmed his lips twice, and said weakly, "This...... Maybe I can't reply to you, I don't have this permission. ”

At this moment, he no longer had the courage to pat Lin Hongfei on the shoulder just now.

"It's okay," Lin Hongfei also knew that this kind of thing was definitely not something that Li Kun's role could afford, and he waved his hand indifferently, "You can report to your company, and let qualified people go directly to Belarus to talk to me...... You can also give up, I have no opinion. ”

As soon as Lin Hongfei finished speaking, Li Kun shook his head busily: What are you kidding, a waybill that lasts for 5 years and has an average annual value of not less than 20 million US dollars will be rejected by a fool!

He dared to guarantee that after he reported the situation, the company's leaders would send someone to Belarus as soon as possible. As for yourself? Being able to bring back such a large order intention to the company is enough to ensure that he is promoted and makes a fortune.

As he was talking, Holger answered the phone, and after a while, Holger hung up the phone. Broich suddenly rushed over and hugged Lin Hongfei and sang and danced, saying something loudly in German, ignoring that he was in an elegant and quiet café.

What's going on? Li Kun looked stupid: Holger is also a billionaire, what is it that makes him so excited?

But the next moment, he was completely dumbfounded: Lin Hongfei, who was stunned for a moment, was also like a demon, and jumped up with excitement like Holger. (To be continued.) )
