Ouyang Yun really had no choice, but the thoroughness and meticulousness of his preparations made Roosevelt dumbfounded. When Roosevelt reported one patented technology after another and the price, Ouyang Yun responded to him with stack after stack. On the letterhead, the value that these patented technologies can derive in five years is calculated through precise calculations.
There are two patented technologies that Americans are interested in. One is the engine of the Great Wall brand off-road vehicle, and the other is the mass production technology of diodes and transistors. For the former, Ford is willing to pay 5 million for it; for the latter, RCA is willing to pay 3 million,
Roosevelt felt that this price was very reasonable. After all, the purchasing power of the US dollar at this time was quite strong. However, the data Ouyang Yun provided was scientifically based. Of course, the number was also a bit alarming. The engine's The patent fee is relatively cheap. Five million plus zero is enough. However, the price of the mass production technology of diodes and transistors is too outrageous. How much is it? One hundred and thirty million.
"Oh my God, General, are you kidding me?"
Ouyang Yun smiled bitterly: "I also hope it's a joke, but please see." He presented the detailed calculation basis and formula to Roosevelt,
Roosevelt looked at it carefully and was speechless. He was an honest man. At least he was still far away from telling lies. Naturally, it was obvious that what he said was true.
Ouyang Yun said: "Our requirements are not high. Let's make half the profit, based on the price we offer, 50-50."
Roosevelt shook his head: "The discrepancy is too big, and I don't have the right to make a decision. It seems that people from Ford and RCA need to be personally involved in this matter."
"That's fine, but I hope this matter can be carried out as soon as possible. Your Excellency, the situation in Fujian and Guangdong is complicated, and I cannot leave for too long."
"I understand, I will send someone to contact you now." He picked up the phone and said,
Business negotiation is a long bargaining process, but Ouyang Yun really doesn't have time. After enjoying a private banquet at the President's home prepared by Eleanor herself at the White House at noon, representatives from several manufacturers also arrived, including the president of a pharmaceutical company.
Xuebingjun's pharmaceutical company developed rapidly. Based on the original penicillin, it developed amoxicillin and ampicillin. These two drugs did not appear until 1962 in that time and space. This shows their value. The United States The patents that were really needed most in the country were the manufacturing technology of penicillin and amoxicillin. However, because the profits of the pharmaceutical industry were too high, in order to prevent Ouyang Yunshi from opening his mouth, Roosevelt did not mention it at first. As for later, he did not even dare to mention it. Mentioned, there is no doubt that he was frightened by Ouyang Yun's extensive preparations.
The atmosphere of the lunch was quite good, because there were ladies joining in. Both Roosevelt and Ouyang Yun behaved like special gentlemen and were polite. Roosevelt was a little confused at first about the relationship between Gu Lianyun, Pan Meiren and Ouyang Yun, but Ran and Ai Linuo exchanged glances, and he understood. Then when he clinked glasses with Ouyang Yun, he sighed: "Dear Yun, I'm starting to envy you."
"Yeah." Ouyang Yun was a little confused,
Roosevelt winked at him: "Being able to take two ladies to visit other countries at the same time is something that not everyone can do."
Roosevelt rarely showed his humorous side, and as a result, "poof." Ouyang Yun rudely spit out the red wine in his mouth. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and turned his head in time. Otherwise, Roosevelt would probably be showered with red wine. Yu, "I'm sorry, I'm rude." He quickly apologized,
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, my dear, what are you doing? You don't want to learn from Yun, right?" Evil people will have their own way, and Mrs. Eleanor stepped forward in time.
"No, no, how could it be? We in the United States will not allow polygamy." Roosevelt quickly explained. However, I don't know if he was too hasty, but he didn't notice the obvious language problems in his words.
Mrs. Eleanor smiled sweetly: "Then, you can go to China."
"Ah, no, no, Eleanor, how can you say that, I, I am to you..." Roosevelt wanted to confess his feelings, but looked at Gu Lianyun and others, his face turned red, and he finally couldn't say anything. ,
The three Chinese guests smiled at the side. Ouyang Yun looked at Roosevelt again and felt that this old American man was much more pleasing to his eyes. He could maintain such a harmonious relationship with his old wife, which showed that this man had a good conscience and had someone to love in his heart. ,No matter how bad it is, it can't be too bad. Well, this may be a breakthrough. I don't know if Lianyun and the others realize it.
Facts have proved that Gu Lianyun's public relations skills are much better than Ouyang Yun's, and her business acumen is much stronger. The personal relationship she worked hard to maintain with Eleanor has now become a trump card. Eleanor stepped forward. Roosevelt, who was still resisting at first, immediately became more outspoken and almost said, "Dear Yun, please don't worry, I will try my best to help."
Despite Roosevelt's assurance, the afternoon negotiations were still difficult. In the face of interests, no one would take the initiative to make concessions. In comparison, Ouyang Yun, who was in urgent need of money, was undoubtedly at a congenital passive disadvantage. Whether it was the Ford family or RCA, Including Charles Pfizer, which arrived later, although the negotiation atmosphere has been maintained very well because the first two have a cooperative relationship with the Xuebing Army, that is all, and they are not willing to make any concessions in terms of price. ,
Speaking of Charles Pfizer, it was actually the launcher of "Viagra" in later generations. Of course, at this time, the main brand that Charles Pfizer relied on was only oxytetracycline. Both the scale of the company and the strength of scientific research were far inferior to those of Xue Bingjun. Great Wall Pharmaceuticals and Charles Pfizer can now produce penicillin, but because the scale cannot increase and the cost is extremely high, they are at an extreme disadvantage in the competition with Great Wall Pharmaceuticals. Charles Pfizer wants to introduce production lines for penicillin, amoxicillin and ampicillin , the price offered for the use of the patent rights was US$6 million, which was too different from Ouyang Yun's expectations. Therefore, Ouyang Yun directly ignored the existence of his representatives and just bargained with representatives from Ford and RCA.
We started talking at two o'clock in the afternoon and kept talking until about four o'clock, but there was no progress at all. Ouyang Yun couldn't hold back his anger. While the waiter at the White House was serving afternoon tea, he said to Gu Lianyun: "Hurry up and help me make an appointment with Bisselin." , I want to meet her tonight, and it seems I can’t do this without asking the Jews for help.” After two hours of verbal bickering, he finally understood that if he wanted to win successfully, there would be no other bidders involved. It was absolutely impossible. When the Americans understood the situation of the Xuebingjun, they felt that they had a sure chance of victory, so they behaved calmly and not in any hurry. This made him secretly grateful that fortunately there was a secret chess move by the Jewish Zionist Organization, otherwise If so, this trip to the United States will definitely come back in vain.
The several American companies participating in the negotiations must have reached a tacit understanding. They insisted on the initial quotation and refused to let go. The subsequent negotiations still made no progress at all. Ouyang Yun also became angry. The closing conditions in his mind were originally The deal was settled at a 30% discount on our original quotation. Now we simply don’t mention it and have decided to just give the Jews a discount.
It was only after half past five o'clock that he left the venue directly, then rejected the invitations of several Americans. After bidding farewell to Roosevelt, he took Gu Lianyun and others straight to the Laibo Hotel near the White House.
The time agreed upon by Gu Lianyun and Bisselin was half past six. Ouyang Yun and the others rushed there at the right time. By coincidence, they met Bisselin and her entourage rushing over at the entrance of the hotel.
What makes Ouyang Yun quite gratified is that the Jewish Zionist Organization really values the cooperation with the student army, so it attaches great importance to tonight's banquet. There are more than 20 people in Bisselin's party, including the leader of the Zionist Organization. Everyone came out, a chairman, three vice-chairmen and a secretary-general were all present.
Gu Lianyun asked his subordinates to book the hotel. She was surprised when she saw the size of the hotel. She told Ouyang Yun that she had to discuss with the hotel quickly and let them change to a larger room. At this time, Bisselin happened to come over. Hearing this, he said: "Miss Gu, I have already booked the room. Let's go in first."
Everyone filed into the room booked by Bisselin, and then Bisselin introduced both parties. After everyone exchanged greetings, Ouyang Yun and Lao Dasuo took the lead to sit down next to each other.
Old Dassault is an old Jewish man about fifty years old who looks very shrewd.
The originally agreed meeting time between the two parties was two days later. At this time, they met in advance at Ouyang Yun's request. Lao Dassault did not show any pretense. After sitting down, he directly asked the reason.
Ouyang Yun was not polite and explained directly, and finally said: "Mr. Dassault, we need your help. Of course, this is not free. If those companies still insist on biting the original bottom line, we are willing to give up some of it." The profits are directly traded with you. I believe that from your perspective, you should be able to see the huge profits contained in it. This is the information we have prepared for this negotiation. You can take a look." As he said this, he handed over the relevant information. To old Dassault,
Old Dassault took it and looked at it carefully, and then handed it to a Jew named Yaminxiu. Yaminxiu was a financial planner. He took the information and walked aside. He first made a few phone calls to learn about some relevant information. Then he took out a pen and wrote calculations for a while. A quarter of an hour later, he came back and handed the information back to old Dassault and said: "Sir, these figures are detailed and accurate."
Old Dassault nodded, looked at the other big guys from the Restoration Organization who were present and said: "Sileva, Mode, there are two projects here in the automotive and pharmaceutical industries. Are you interested, eh? , the profit return rate in three years should be between 300% and 500%, an absolute huge profit.”
Sileva and Mode, one is the vice chairman and the other is the secretary general. When they heard this, the two of them were very excited. They immediately took the information. They looked at it and then said to Ouyang Yun: "General, can you give us more?" A little time? After all, this value is a bit big."
Ouyang Yun smiled and said: "Mr. Dassault, I think you have misunderstood. I just want to ask you to help play the role of a competitor."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old Dassault: "Why do you have to act? If it is really profitable, why not cooperate with us? Our people have made money, which will also be beneficial to our next stage of cooperation." Is it beneficial? But no one would think that they make too much money."
This is a new change. Ouyang Yun couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Of course this is what I am happy to see. Haha, in this case, let's talk about the original cooperation plan first."
Old Dassault smiled and nodded, and said: "Let's eat first, Bisselin, and let the hotel serve the food. By the way, let them bring the best wine. General Ouyang is our honored guest."
"Yes, father, I'll go right away."
Chinese people like to talk about things at the dinner table, which is completely different from Westerners' habits. What Ouyang Yun is most anxious about now is the issue of time. Therefore, after toasting each other in a very gentlemanly manner with several big guys from the Restoration Organization, , he proposed "talking while eating", and Lao Dassault readily agreed.
Restoration is the dream of the Jews. In their minds, nothing can be greater than this.
The purpose of Bisselin's trip to Guangzhou was to conduct an on-the-spot investigation to find out the true strength of the Xuebing Army and to see if it was worth cooperating with the National Restoration Organization. There is no doubt that there is no problem with the Xuebing Army's qualifications, otherwise , there will be no banquet today, but because Ouyang Yun only planned to help the Jews obtain a land of autonomy at the beginning, and this was far from the expectations of the restoration organization, so it was destined that the two sides would inevitably bargain over this, and the restoration was inevitable. The biggest wish of the national organization is to rebuild the Jewish state with Jerusalem as its capital. However, because Jerusalem is the holy land of the three major religions of Judaism, Islam and Christianity, they also know that this process must be extremely difficult.
Ouyang Yun flatly rejected Bisselin's request to help her restore her kingdom in Jerusalem. It was precisely because of the complex religious forces in the area that it could not be solved simply by force, so he wisely chose to avoid it.
As a non-Jewish person, you cannot understand the importance of Jerusalem to the Jewish nation. Although he has learned about Ouyang Yun's attitude from his daughter, the old Dassault still did not give up. As soon as the two sides discussed the topic of cooperation, he tentatively asked : "Your Excellency, General, please give us a letter of approval. What conditions do you need before you are willing to help us restore our country in Jerusalem?"
The Jewish Jerusalem complex, Ouyang Yun sighed in his heart, shook his head and said: "Mr. Dassault, I think you really misunderstood, this is not just a matter of conditions, but, this is simply not something that our student army can achieve. With all due respect, if you insist on restoring your country in Jerusalem, it will be impossible to achieve it unless you can get the support of several superpowers. Instead of fantasizing about such castles in the air, it is better to face reality and find a place to settle down first. And on this point, our Xuebing Army can provide you with a guarantee."
