"Lin, is this your company's production equipment?" Looking at the advanced automated production equipment and industrial robots, Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez was shocked, and asked Lin Hongfei with a slightly changed face.

Not only Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez was shocked, even the escorts of the two were shocked, everyone knew that the Fukang car produced by Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was very spacious and comfortable, but no one thought that the production line for such a comfortable car was so advanced.

"That's right," Lin Hongfei nodded, and said to Robert without any subtlety. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez proudly introduced, "This is the world's most advanced automated production line and industrial robot, reaching the international first-class level in the late 80s and early 90s, I can proudly say that in the world, there are not many automobile manufacturers with such a highly automated production line." ”

"That'...... This line must be expensive, right? Looking at such advanced production equipment, Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez was a little cowardly, a little awe-inspiring, there was no longer the previous arrogance in his eyes, they thought that they had seen high-tech, as the back garden of the Americans, Uruguayans have still seen a lot of good things, to paraphrase a sentence before these two people stimulated the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is, "our Uruguayan tractors imported from the United States are four-wheel drive with air conditioning", but now, Uruguayans look at this advanced production line, and no longer dare to say such things.

As the Minister of Commerce, Gutierrez still fulfilled his duties very loyally, and after he was stunned for a moment, he cautiously asked Lin Hongfei, "Lin, what is the annual production capacity of this production line?" How much does it cost to purchase such a production line? ”

A little inquiry into this matter will be known. This is not a secret, Lin Hongfei has no need to hide it, "The production capacity is 20,000 vehicles, if it is to purchase such a production line, well......" After a deep sigh, Lin Hongfei said, "Conservative estimates, it will take about 80 million US dollars." ”

There is no doubt that Lin Hongfei lied, but it is a pity that Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez didn't know what to do. As soon as he heard the number Lin Hongfei said, Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez was taken aback: $80 million?!

$80 million is definitely not a small number, can you imagine a country spending almost 1 percent of its annual fiscal revenue, or a third of the annual military spending of many countries to buy a car production line?

Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez's face suddenly turned a little gloomy, and this is the sadness of small countries, although they seem to have a high per capita income. But the total amount of disposable income is actually not high, spending $80 million to buy a production line. It's not that the money can't be paid. But it's almost a little bit of a scar.

"Do you have a lot of such production lines?" Carlos. Gutierrez asked in a trembling voice.

"Not much, two in total," Lin Hongfei said with a smile, "Do you want to see our company's motorcycle production line?" ”

Motorcycle production line? Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez hesitated, but nodded. Before they came, they didn't have the idea of visiting the motorcycle production line, but now, the huge investment in car production is like giving Robert . Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez took the lead in the face. In the face of this sky-high investment, the two can no longer be proud.

"Mr. Lin, this is ...... Isn't it a little out of place? Director Yang frowned, very dissatisfied with Lin Hongfei's practice of changing the itinerary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs without permission.

"It's okay, all we have to do is make the guests feel at home, don't you think the two of them are interested in motorcycles?" Lin Hongfei looked at Robert, who had a somewhat serious face. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez and the two of them pursed their lips and said in a low voice.

Director Yang thought for a while and stopped talking: Also, since the guests are willing to go and see, is there a need to stop him? Uruguay's guests are even better if they like it, which means a lot of political achievements.

……………………

Compared with the extremely precise car production line, the motorcycle production line can probably only be described by the word "simple", although the production line has been upgraded from the beginning of the semi-automatic to fully automatic, but more is supplemented by manual ...... Motorcycle assembly work, industrial robots still can't do well, and the investment is huge, but it is better to use more labor, but also to help the government solve the employment problem.

Come to visit the production line of the Royal Star, and look at the typical American prince at the end of the production line. Clem. Lopez asked Lin Hongfei with some disdain, "Lin, is this the motorcycle you produce?" It is much smaller than the Toyota, Suzuki, and Yamaha motorcycles produced by the Americans and the Japanese. ”

"That's right," Lin Hongfei said to Robert. Clem. Lopez's words are not denied, but his words make Robert . Clem. Lopez's next words were gagged, "But our motorcycle, which costs only a few thousand dollars each, is exported to Europe, can the American Harley be sold so cheaply?" ”

"Export to Europe?!" Robert, who had just been gagged by Lin Hongfei. Clem. As if Lopez had discovered something funny, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed, "Lin, don't you tell jokes, okay?" Will wealthy Europeans buy your cars? Haha......ha

Lin Hongfei pursed his lips, he knew these romantic, or more directly, casual South American personalities, and stretched out his hand to the side, Cao Jun, who had been following Lin Hongfei's hand, immediately took out a document from his bag and handed it to Lin Hongfei. After receiving the information, Lin Hongfei said to Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez shook what was in his hand, "It's just a contract for the export of our company's products to Spain, you can take a look." ”

Exporting to Spain? The official language of Uruguay is Spanish. Clem. Naturally, it is impossible for Lopez not to understand the text in this document, although the sensitive content in the contract has been blacked out. Clem. Lopez can still easily tell the truth of the contract. After briefly browsing the contract, Robert who didn't believe Lin Hongfei's words just now. Clem. Lopez was shocked: This contract turned out to be real?!

Robert. Clem. Lopez's face changed without hiding it from his partner Carlos. Gutierrez, seeing the reaction of his companions, Carlos. Gutierrez suddenly chuckled in his heart: Could it be that he still underestimated the Chinese? Aren't all the things that Chinese can export to the outside world are silk and porcelain, and when will they be able to export motorcycles, which have a good technical content?

"Our motorcycles are not exported to Spain, but even to almost all major European countries such as Germany, France, Italy, etc., and just last month, we also established a sales channel in the United States. Distributors in the United States have already ordered 5,000 vehicles...... They have full confidence in our products," Lin Hongfei looked at Robert with a smile. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez, "The two of you say that because you don't know anything about our products, right?" ”

Not only exported to Spain. Or even to most developed countries throughout Europe? Or even exported to the United States? If the contract handed over by Lin Hongfei just now was just a proof of his innocence, then these words would be tantamount to a series of slaps in the face of Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez's faces: What do you think is bad? Even Americans and Europeans are using it. Do you still think it's bad?

South American countries have a very strange mentality towards the United States, on the one hand, they are very dissatisfied with the fact that the Americans regard their country as a dumping ground for their goods, and feel that they have been greatly insulted; On the other hand, they are envious of the affluent life of Americans, and everything about Americans is what they want to imitate: Americans' living habits, behavior, favorite stars, etc...... The popularity of major movie and television stars in the United States in South American countries far exceeds their popularity in the United States. In the eyes of South Americans, what Americans like, it must be good.

Now, I heard Li Hongfei say that even Americans are starting to like their motorcycles. Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: We don't have such a good thing?

Several of the Chinese representatives present were not stupid. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. The reaction of Gutierrez and their entourage immediately exchanged glances with each other: it seems that in addition to this car cooperation project, we can finalize a cooperation project again.

With this previous momentum, Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. When Gutierrez looked at the inline twin-cylinder American prince motorcycle on the assembly line again, he no longer felt that this guy looked ugly like an ugly duckling, on the contrary, there seemed to be a faint trace of nobility in it. Clem. Lopez turned to Lin Hongfei and asked, "Dear Lin, can you introduce us to this motorcycle?" ”

"Of course there is no problem...... Lin Hongfei said, but he began to make his own little calculations in his heart: in addition to Southeast Asia, it seems that South America is also a major consumption area for motorcycles in the world? Damn, I have been focusing on the highly competitive European market before, and I have ignored the huge market of South America, which should not be.

"It's a pity that it's an in-line twin, and it's even better if it's a V-twin cylinder, even if it's a V-twin with a displacement of only 250CC." After listening to Lin Hongfei's introduction, Robert. Clem. Lopez sighed with regret that he was deeply influenced by the American cruising prince, and he still liked the unique shock of the American prince's huge V-twin engine.

"We also have a V-twin model," Lin Hongfei said, glancing at Cao Jun. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez and the two laughed, "Are you two interested in taking a look?" ”

"V-twin motorcycles?" Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez's eyes suddenly lit up, "Is it the same as the American's Harley?" ”

"To be precise, it's the same as the big glide in the American Harley series and the Japanese Honda Golden Wing series," Lin Hongfei is very unimpressed by the big glide of Harley, "If you are a motorcycle fan, I believe you will like this car." ”

He didn't believe much about Lin Hongfei's words, but he didn't believe it. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez and the two finally learned a little bit, and finally knew how to find loopholes in Lin Hongfei's words, "Harley's big gliding displacement is 1584CC, and the Japanese Golden Wing also has 1500CC, you ...... Does your company have a V-twin engine with such a large displacement? ”

Lin Hongfei for Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez, the two dignified ministers of a country, can't help but sneer in their hearts for their Americanistic approach, well, they only sneer in their hearts, and they still have to do it on the surface, pretending not to hear Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez smiled with a smile in his tone, "We don't have a V-twin engine with a displacement of 1584cc and 1500CC, we have a V-twin engine with a displacement of 1798CC." ”

"Oh God!" Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez was dumbfounded!

A 1798CC displacement engine? Isn't that 1.8L in the ordinary sense?! Equipping a motorcycle with a 1.8-litre engine? Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez used to think that the Americans and the Japanese were crazy enough, but now they find that the Chinese seem to be even crazier.

Reacted to Robert. Clem. Lopez and Carlos. Gutierrez was immediately excited, although the two of them were not motorcycle fans, they also knew what this number meant, even if they were not motorcycle fans before, they immediately became motorcycle fans. Clem. Lopez held Lin Hongfei's hand tightly and said to Lin Hongfei enthusiastically, "Lin, can you let me see this car?" Truth be told, I'm also a crazy motorcycle enthusiast. ”

Carlos. Gutierrez proved to his companion on the side, "That's right, Lin, he's really a crazy motorcycle enthusiast and has a collection of more than 50 different motorcycles in his home. (To be continued.) )
