    Liu Dong still doesn¡¯t know what role the Southern Inspection Chief¡¯s words will play in the future.  But it is conceivable that in the next ten years or so, as long as his route does not go wrong, he will definitely be safe.  Of course, since the head of the Southern Patrol gave Liu Dong a talisman, Liu Dong must take practical actions to support domestic construction.

    On the way back, Liu Dong kept thinking about what the head of the Southern Tour said to the central bank governor Guo Xiaotian: "Xiao Guo, since we have foreseen the problem of the appreciation of the yen, you have to deal with this matter.  Okay. The country¡¯s foreign exchange reserves are already tight now, and they must not be affected by this incident. If you have anything you don¡¯t understand, you can ask Xiao Liu. After all, he brought up this matter, and there will definitely be  All things considered.¡±

    ¡° In this case, it means that the head of the Southern Inspection Tour has affirmed Liu Dong¡¯s economic say.  In the future, if Liu Dong puts forward opinions on economic construction, no one will say that he is nosy.  After all, if this is something that the head of the Southern Patrol is sure of, it cannot be wrong.

    Of course, Liu Dong must not give too many opinions, because after all, he intends to be outside the system and participate too much in economic construction. It will not be of any benefit to him.  Seizing power is hated by others, and others don't care whether you have good intentions or malicious intentions.

    Within a month after the meeting, Louis and his troops contacted Liu Dong again, and this time, in addition to the Volkswagen Group, there were also French Peugeot, Citro?n, Italian Fiat, BMW Group, and Daimler Group  , the three major American giants, General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler.  For a time, all the world's famous automobile companies sent representatives to the capital. Even Honda, which had lost its opportunity, also sent representatives.

    ??The circle of the automobile industry may not be big, but it is certainly not small if it is small.  If a core technology emerges that is related to the development in the next few years, and its owner intends to license it, then it is definitely not uncommon for many representatives to gather like this.

    Because Liu Dong¡¯s arrival changed history, the research institute that had a cooperative relationship with Volkswagen lost this opportunity, letting such a product that could earn huge profits miss and fall into trouble.  But Liu Dong took this opportunity to open his claws and reach out to the lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

    Due to the large number of participants, the small conference room where Liu Dong negotiated with Toyota and Volkswagen was obviously not enough. Therefore, after receiving the huge amount of funds from Toyota, Liu Dong generously rented the largest conference room in the Capital Hotel.  Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep. This time, companies will definitely have to pay for the money in the future. Why act like an old man and lower the corporate quality of your company?

    ??Well, for a company that has only been established for more than a month, has two or three kittens, and even the most important service personnel are seconded from ministries and commissions, Liu Dong¡¯s so-called corporate quality is really a joke.  If the sign in front of the company hadn't been completed, then Liu Dong's so-called company would be completely called a three-no company.

    Of course, such an embarrassment must not be seen by those global companies, so Liu Dong simply used his power to temporarily expropriate the office building of a state-owned enterprise under the Ministry of Machinery.  Anyway, it is a labor fee, and it is also a matter of face for Chinese companies, so this matter is half-finished.

    After the representatives of those companies visited Liu Dong's company, they all knew that Liu Dong's company was quite powerful, and they also had a new understanding of this negotiation.  A week before the negotiation at the Beijing Hotel, Liu Dong suddenly came up with an idea.  Since many companies are very interested in this patent, we might as well hold an auction. The contents of the auction are two licenses, one for the Americas and one for Europe.  The base price in Europe is US$30 million, and the base price in the Americas is also US$30 million.

    Why is there such a situation?  That's because Liu Dong saw that these companies were so active, and thought that those American companies wouldn't mind if they offered an extra 10 million yuan in reserve price. There weren't many things where he could raise the price at a low price. If he couldn't seize the opportunity, he would have to  I regret it so much.

    When these companies saw the base price quoted by Liu Dong, they almost burst into tears.  Damn, who said these Chinese people can't do business?  Nonsense, Toyota only bought the license for US$20 million before. Thinking of bargains to buy, people from these companies rushed over to pick up the bargains. Unexpectedly, Toyota's US$20 million deal turned out to be a trap.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? After a fierce fight, this seemingly cheap authorization will be lifted to a level that makes people cry without knowing how many people.  At this moment, all car companiesThe person in charge all remembered the name of one person, Liu Dong, the man who killed a thousand swordsmen. Are you still a Chinese who is famous for his simplicity?

    "But since people are here, of course they won't just go back so stupidly. Not to mention that they can't explain it to the company, even they will feel uncomfortable.  Did the co-author come to China this time just to make soy sauce?  Even if this business doesn't work, you can still look at other businesses. China is such a big market, and it's not only visible to the public.

    Now that I have the opportunity to come to China, of course I have to find out if there is any possibility of cooperation.  For a time, those car companies that felt that their companies were out of business began to run to the Ministry of Commerce. After the auction organized by Liu Dong ended, the Ministry of Commerce actually reached an agreement with some car companies. Even Volkswagen was here.  For a period of time, I have been in frequent contact with FAW and even gave up some interests.  I am afraid that other companies will also see the prospect of cooperation with FAW and come to get involved.

    Liu Dong¡¯s idea completely disrupted the deployment of those automobile giants. The external pressure that was originally intended to be used on Liu Dong himself suddenly lost its meaning, and in the end he had to attend the auction.  Moreover, those car companies did not have the opportunity to appeal to Liu Dongding's reserve price.

    After contacting the relevant departments, those companies all got a unified answer. Because Liu Dong's company is a private enterprise, there is no clear legal regulation on whether his quotation is exaggerated. Our Bureau of Justice will formulate it as soon as possible.  Relevant laws and regulations, and strive to produce results as soon as possible.  Such an answer obviously does not put pressure on Liu Dong, so there is no need to think about picking up bargains.

    After Toyota got the news, Tanaka Reiichi got the chance to be promoted.  Originally, Tanaka Reiichi's life was quite difficult for a period of time after he got the contract and returned to China.

    Because although he finally got the contract back, the price exceeded the board of directors' expectations. The contract obtained in this way will not give Tanaka extra points, and there will also be penalties.  But before Toyota's board of directors came up with specific suggestions for punishment, they heard that all the automobile companies in China were going to be severely punished by Liu Dong. The directors discovered that Tanaka was the smartest, and he understood  The principle of striking first and gaining the upper hand has saved the company tens of millions of dollars and left Honda, its old rival, behind.

    So, the fool Tanaka suddenly became the courageous Tanaka.

    Toyota¡¯s luck has not befallen other car companies.  Whether it is a European car company or an American car company, on the day of the auction, whether you want to or not, you have to lead a team to participate in the auction.  Some companies that have no hope of obtaining authorization are thinking about how to cause trouble later.  Since you can't get it yourself, those companies must pay a certain price.

    Especially those hostile companies, there is no possibility of obtaining materials anyway, so why not increase the other party¡¯s production costs and hit the market for their related cars?  Therefore, when a group of representatives of automobile manufacturers sat in the specially arranged auction hall, the smell of gunpowder became stronger.

    Since there were no professional auctioneers at this time, Liu Dong, the host boss, had to come as a guest auctioneer.  I put on a festive red horse hanging, and then made a decent-looking auction gavel.  God knows where Liu Dong got this so-called auction gavel. Anyway, people who were close could vaguely see a few words engraved on the auction gavel, which probably came from some court.

    After finishing the outfit, Liu Dong banged the auction hammer on the table, and the auction officially began.  The first thing to be auctioned was the license for the American region. Anyway, there were only three major companies coming, and they were the only three companies competing for it. The atmosphere was definitely not too lively, and it was just a warm-up for the European region.

    Liu Dong¡¯s imagination did not go beyond the truth.  General Motors, Ford and Chrysler were as relaxed as having afternoon tea. They only raised prices twice and they were done.  The final winner was the wealthy General Motors, which spent US$34.5 million to obtain the license for this American region.  Ford is relatively stingy.  As for Chrysler, it seems that it is just here to make soy sauce, and only quoted the price once.

    Compared with the three giants in the United States, the European area is very lively. As soon as Liu Donggang finished talking about starting bidding, Volkswagen immediately started to quote, and increased the price by two million at one time, which was enough to bid the lowest price twenty times.

    Of course, Volkswagen¡¯s meager spending of two million US dollars cannot defeat the wolves that are eyeing it.  The BMW representative immediately followed the Volkswagen representative with two million dollars before he could finish his words.

    The two companies immediately added four million U.S. dollars, and their intention to compete was obvious. Daimler naturally would not show mercy, and immediately followed suit by two million U.S. dollars.  Their company is a representative company of luxury brand cars, the famous Mercedes-Benz?But if their company's technology is applied to their cars, it's a perfect match. How could Daimler's representatives give up?

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT?  Seeing that people from Daimler also took action, the Volkswagen representative's anus tightened, oh, that's wrong, it was his heart that tightened.  This technology is more important to Daimler than Volkswagen.  If Volkswagen wants to stand out, it must pay a high price, a high price that does not make much profit, and may even cause a small loss, in order to obtain this technology that originally belongs to their company.

    So, Volkswagen representative Louis slowly but firmly said a number: "Forty-five million US dollars!"
