    The signing of the contract with the Japanese can be said to have been completed in a friendly and warm atmosphere. Although Tanaka still had a bitter look on his face, only he knew whether he had made any money.  The US$20 million to sign this authorization was countless times higher than the expected authorization fee, but compared to the benefits of the authorization, it was still a sure profit.

    "This thing can only be done in China. If the research results are from Germany, it will be difficult for Tanaka to believe that only 20 million US dollars can accomplish the matter.  There must be many additional clauses in it, and just like that, it may not be possible to sign it.  But now, just paying 20 million US dollars, and it can be paid in Japanese yen, the cost is not that big.

    In the future, there will be countless models using this technology, which is also of vital significance to the development of high-end cars.  Although the Japanese have occupied most of the low-end car market in the United States, when it comes to high-end cars, the Japanese are not that strong.  In the automobile industry, it is generally accepted that high-end cars can earn far more profits than low-end cars.  Now that we have good materials, Toyota can give it a try.

    After the contract was finally signed and it was noon, Liu Dong, who had just made a lot of money from the Japanese, would naturally not be too stingy.  The Japanese and Germans were invited to have a sumptuous lunch. During this time, the German Louis felt extremely anxious because he, unlike Tanaka Reiichi, had received sufficient authorization.  The conditions he could agree to were far lower than the figure of 20 million U.S. dollars. Not only that, he also understood that Liu Dong did not understand international affairs as well as ordinary domestic personnel. He knew very well how to win  own best interests.

    So, regarding the licensing of the European part, it can definitely be done with more than just 20 million US dollars.  The Bavarian Machinery Manufacturing Company, which competes with Volkswagen, will never let go of this rare opportunity. There are also Citro?n, Fiat, Renault, and even more alarming, those F1 racing companies.  Because Liu Dong's patent provides significantly greater support for high-end models than for mid-range or low-end models.  Those top car brands will never give up such good patent authorization.  Volkswagen is now just winning at the starting line.

    So, when the luncheon ended, the Volkswagen company led by Louis said goodbye to Liu Dong and hurriedly sent a telegram back to the company to get the authorization.  Japan's Tanaka also had to go back and report to the company. Although the contract was signed, the funds were not in place. Even if he got the authorization, he would not dare to start construction immediately.  Fortunately, Liu Dong only wanted Japanese yen, not US dollars.  If it were US dollars, the company would have to report to the authorities and consortium when using such a large amount of foreign exchange.

    After all the foreigners left, the negotiators Liu Dong brought with him who had just pretended to be calm started chatting with each other, especially Huang Minmin, who drank a little wine and pulled Liu Dong's cuffs to start.  Asked: "Manager Liu, is that contract just now real? Your company's first business was a contract of 20 million US dollars. My God, this foreign exchange is so profitable, isn't it?"

    Until now, Huang Minmin is still confused, even though she is said to be the main representative in the negotiations today.  But when Liu Dong spoke, she was completely stunned.  Their Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau rarely talks about such contracts.  Twenty million U.S. dollars, converted into Japanese yen, is more than five billion yen. With so much money, let alone a small department-level cadre like her, even the head of their Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau, would be stunned.  It's only 1983 now. Let alone a private company, it is a very large state-owned enterprise. It is still unknown whether there will be so much foreign exchange income from a single negotiation.

    Seeing that the people he brought were completely stunned, Liu Dong also felt particularly accomplished.  In fact, let alone these people, even he himself did not expect such a result at all. Although he had set a very high bottom line before, it was only ten million US dollars. He never thought that Japan's Tanaka  He actually has such high authority.

    Tanaka also said just now, if you ask for a high price, pay the money on the spot.  He originally said those words as a test.  Unexpectedly, Tanaka agreed after thinking about it for a while.  The contract in black and white was signed in such a blur, and the US$20 million basically went into his pocket.

    He wants to jump up and cheer now, but as a leader, of course he cannot be suppressed like people like Huang Minmin.  Therefore, Liu Dong pretended to be very disdainful and said: "Where is this? The Japanese's 20 million is just an appetizer. Just like this, you are frightened. What should you do when negotiating with the Germans in the future? According to  My estimate is that the Germans are the big ones. The Japanese have paid 20 million US dollars, so the Germans will have to pay at least 30 million. Otherwise, we won¡¯t sell it to them.¡±

    Hearing Liu Dong's tone, Huang Minmin collapsed completely.  What kind of leader did she follow?  This mouth opens a contract worth fifty million dollars.?And he said before that he could also talk to the Americans. According to his base price, wouldn't this patent have to make a profit of at least 70 million US dollars?  $70 million?  What is the concept?  For a moment, Huang Minmin had the idea of ????quitting her job at the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau and working for Liu Dong.  But after thinking about it, she still decided to forget it. She really couldn't bear to follow such an imposing leader.  Especially since she was a negotiator. If anything went wrong at work in the future, it would cost at least millions of dollars. The pressure was too great and she couldn't bear it.

    The Japanese are gone, and so are the Germans.  There was basically nothing going on in the afternoon.  So Liu Dong sent the others away and hurried back slowly.  He doesn't have a car now, so he has to catch the bus honestly. Anyway, the capital has not been expanded yet, and the bus distance is not very far.

    Looking at the current situation, there will be very few opportunities to run buses in the future. When the money comes to households, they will definitely have to buy a few cars to show off their appearance. Otherwise, for such a large company, even the boss will take the bus.  The company's development is not good.

    It was only when Liu Dong wandered home on the bus that he discovered that Mr. Liu had actually come to their house.  Not only was the old man there, but Liu Dong's father Liu Shengli and a deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation were also at home.

    Seeing this posture, Liu Dong froze at the door.  At this time, shouldn't the big guys be at work now?  Why did you run home so neatly? Was there something unexpected?  But if there is an accident at home, it has nothing to do with your Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation?  What is a deputy minister doing here?

    Although he thought so, Liu Dong still put down his satchel and faced the old man and the others honestly and said hello one by one.  After saying hello, Liu Dong signaled Liu Shengli with his eyes and asked him what he was doing here.

    Before Liu Shengli could speak, Mr. Liu spoke: "Xiaodong, I heard that you signed a contract today, and the target is the Toyota company in Japan, right?"

    "Yes, we signed a contract with them. Is there any problem with this? Didn't I promise this patent that I would solve it myself?" Liu Dong still didn't understand. There was nothing wrong with signing the contract.  Is everything agreed?  Could there be any changes to what the head of the Southern Patrol had promised back then?

    Seeing Liu Dong's confusion, Mr. Liu hurriedly said: "No problem, no problem, I just want to ask, did you really extort Toyota of 20 million US dollars, which is more than 5 billion yen, in this contract?"  When it came to more than five billion yen, the old man couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

    Liu Dong was not happy at this time and said: "Old man, what are you talking about? How can you say that I blackmailed the Japanese? This transaction is a matter of mutual consent. Since the Japanese have agreed, this  It can¡¯t be called extortion! Besides, the Japanese only received more than 5 billion yen for this patent, which is considered an advantage to them. I haven¡¯t even asked for their US dollars in foreign exchange.¡±

    Hearing Liu Dong¡¯s exact answer, these big guys who were already emotionless couldn¡¯t help but take a breath of cold air.  Especially the deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, who felt that his brain was not enough at this time.  He had heard Huang Minmin call back to report that Liu Dong had made more than 5 billion Japanese yen in one morning, and he thought Huang Minmin had a seizure and was talking nonsense.

    If Huang Minmin hadn't guaranteed with her party spirit that everything she said was true, and there were people nearby to testify for her, he would have told the superiors about the matter with suspicion, and then the superiors would have asked him and Mr. Liu to question Liu Dong.  .

    Now, Huang Minmin didn¡¯t lie. Liu Dong did get more than 5 billion yen from the Japanese.  At this time, Vice Minister Qin didn't know what to say.  Liu Dong could sell a technology patent for so much money. With such a world view, Vice Minister Qin didn't know what to ask.

    However, Mr. Liu was the calmest and scolded: "You are still taking advantage of the Japanese? Then when we fought against the little devils, weren't we too kind? You bastard, your wings are stiff, isn't it? Such a big thing,  I didn't even say a word after it was done. If it hadn't been for Deputy Minister Qin's phone call, I wouldn't have known about it. Where did you go with that contract? Let me take a look. Don't let the little devil get it.  What kind of trap is there?"

    Liu Dong heard the old man¡¯s instructions and quickly handed over the contract in the bag, letting the old man take a good look.

    The old man took the contract and read it over and over for a long time, but he didn't see any traps on the contract written in black and white.  The old man is considered a semi-expert when it comes to things like contracts. When he led the First Machinery Department, he often signed contracts with foreigners. He knew all about the tricks in the contracts.

    But the contract Liu Dong gave him obviously had no loopholes.?Standardized, very formal, and no additional terms.  If you really sign such a contract, there will be no problem at all.  His previous worries were in vain.

    (ps: The collection of brothers this afternoon was so impressive that it actually increased by four. Thank you very much, Jian Jia. By the way, can you be more generous, brothers?)
