My 1979

Li He personally brought these two people into the conference room. There were many people in the hall, and anyone who was interested could see them if they paid a little attention.

"Please take a seat." Li He was thankful that the Prague trade union chairman's English was pretty good. As for the other Czech local local snake Yarny, he can’t speak a word of English and only speaks Russian and Czech, but luckily he has a translator.

Both of them were waiting for the Oriental in front of them to speak. If it weren't for the sake of the thousand dollars, no one would be willing to meet this fellow sufferer who also came from socialism.

If you have time, you might as well accept more capitalist sugar-coated bullets and talk about relationships with socialist brothers, which is a waste of time.

Li He said, "Brack is very beautiful, much more beautiful than I imagined."

Temur said to Li He, "Mr. Franka is Russian."

"I was born and raised in Leningrad." Franka acknowledged Temur's words.

Li He took another look at Jarni, who had been silent. This Czech native must be a little patriotic, so that what he just said would not be in vain.

"Sir, if you have any requests, just ask, as long as the price is right." Jiang Jianjian relayed Yarni's words.

Li He was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this person to be more straightforward.

Franka said, "You don't have to be as shy as a kitten. Just say it, say it. Out of friendship, we will respond to your request."

He looked like a kind, fat old man with a smile, and he had just the right amount of politeness and mannerisms, without appearing to be artificial at all.

"As we all know, the industrial products produced in Czechoslovakia account for 1.5% of the world's industrial products, while its population only accounts for 0.4% of the world's population. I am more interested in many things here, and price is never an issue." Li He has no need to hide anymore Tucked in. What he said was already relatively straightforward.

Franka narrowed his eyes and said, "Like a heavy water reactor?"

"No, no, I'm an upright businessman, you're kidding me." Li He refused without thinking. He didn't say whether he had the ability or not. Even if he really had the ability to obtain this equipment, Li He would not be able to transport it out at all.

Franka laughed loudly, "Sir, I admire your integrity. I am also afraid that you will make some unrealistic demands like some people do. Very good, very good, you know what you are doing. Then you are right What equipment are you more interested in?”

"Then let's talk about the price. If you have any good things in your hands, just tell me. As long as it's good, I want it. I won't be stingy with the price." Li He found that Jacques was silent and looked at it more. One glance.

Franka lit a cigarette and said, "There is a glass craft factory that is currently closed. Are you interested, sir?"

He said it a bit casually, thinking that Li He didn't have much financial strength, so he recommended only small workshops.

"Not interested." Li He is indeed not interested. If there is something good, he will come first.

Franka said, "No, no, you don't understand. This is a leading international glass factory. NovyBor's craftsmanship and jewelry glass are very beautiful and are very popular internationally."

Li He still shook his head, "Sorry, I'm not interested in this."

If it's car glass, he's interested, but for accessories, he's not interested.

"Only two hundred thousand dollars, Mr. Li, this is a good price."

Seeing that Li He rejected Franka, Yarni slowly spoke. Jiang Jianjian relayed, "He asked if he had ever heard of Smila Factory?"

"Ask him to write it down." Li He really didn't understand, and the transliteration of the name was very painful.

Yarni wrote it, and Li He was shocked when he saw it, "zastvaka!"

The world's most famous forging machinery manufacturer, how could he not know about it!

The American Lowe, Mesta, and German Pank are all sons and grandsons in front of it! In particular, the die forging hydraulic press is a national treasure-level strategic equipment symbolizing the strength of heavy industry. Only a handful of countries in the world can develop it!

Die forging presses are mainly used to manufacture high-strength titanium-aluminum alloy forgings in aviation, aerospace, nuclear power, petrochemical and other fields. For example, the titanium/aluminum alloy fuselage frame, landing gear, and engine turbine disk of the American F15, F16, F22, and F35 fighter jets all require this kind of equipment.

Such critical core equipment certainly cannot be obtained from abroad using the comprador policy of “market-for-technology”.

He just didn’t expect that this company was Czech!

He always thought it was from Germany!

He suddenly thought of Ukraine's New Kramato Heavy Machinery Factory, which is also awesome! Only later did Alcoa become cheaper. What if he could get it back? He was drooling again.

Yarni was very satisfied when he saw Li He's expression.

"He said it was owned by TST Conglomerate and had stopped working." Jiang Health Care relayed again.

"Ask what's going on now and what the price is." You'd be a fool if you didn't.

Jiang Jianjian said, "This factory is in Brno, and he doesn't know the details, but there is news from outside. The manager is his friend, and anyone with money is easy to negotiate. But many people have already made bids, including South Korea. People and Japanese people, the one with the highest price will get it.”

"Let him contact us. We want this factory." It is unrealistic to operate it locally, but even if it is demolished, Li Laoer will find a way to demolish it for him!

I remember when the Soviet Union and the United States occupied Germany, they dismantled a batch of 10,000-ton forging hydraulic presses from Germany on the grounds of compensation for defeat. The United States dismantled two 15,000-ton forging hydraulic presses, and the Soviet Union dismantled 15,000-ton and 30,000-ton presses. One die forging hydraulic press each.

Germany's heavy industry was almost dismantled to pieces!

These equipment became the technical basis for the United States and the Soviet Union to manufacture ultra-large die forging presses during the Cold War!

Yarni looked at Li He with a strange look.

Jiang Jianjian said, "He asked us if we had that much money, otherwise it would be a waste of his time."

Li He took a deep breath and said, "Tell him, I not only want this factory, but also all the engineers in this factory. As long as I can help retain these people, money is not a problem! Ask Temur again if this person is trustworthy." , if he is trustworthy, take 30,000 yuan first, no, give him 50,000 yuan to fund his activities."

He is going to spend all his money now, and it's hard to get results because he's so careless! To make these people bow their heads, you have to spend money! No matter who it is, for the sake of money, everyone must bow their heads!

If he hesitates, doubts this or that, and doesn't show any enthusiasm and wealth, these people will not work for him!

Ding Shiping placed fifty thousand US dollars in cash on the table. Not only did Yarni's eyes straighten, but Franka's eyes also glowed green.

Neither of them could believe that these poor brothers from socialism could be such rich people!

Yarni hurriedly put the money in his pocket, but Li He stopped him.

"I want good news as soon as possible."

After listening to Jiang Jianbo's words, Yarni nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. When he saw Li He let go of his hand, he hurriedly stuffed the money into his pocket.

After Yarni left, Franka was unwilling to give in. He felt hurt only after the comparison. He couldn't leave empty-handed, he also had to fill his pockets with money!

He said to Li He eagerly, "Have you heard of Selson Company?"

"No." No translation was needed this time, and Li He finally spoke more relaxedly.

"Then I'll write it on paper." This time, Li He didn't need to explain, Franka wrote the company's name on the paper.

"I don't know." Li He had never heard of the name of this company.

"This is a well-known machine tool company in the Czech Republic. Their machines are very popular. They have just recently installed a forging press at a factory in Cardiff, England. They are also preparing to privatize it, and they finalized it before the general election is over. That’s the best.”

"Why is no one in charge now?" Li He was a little confused about this. What is the current situation in this country? It would be understandable if a bankrupt and loss-making factory was sold. This is a profitable factory.

Franka spread his hands and said, "Maybe President Havel, the playwright, only needs a pen."

"Maybe." Li He turned around and said to Ding Shiping, "Give him the same $50,000."

Just like that, Franke happily left with fifty thousand dollars.

Li He returned to the room and the phone rang. It was Shen Daoru's phone.

"Mr. Li, all our money has been received, including Goldman Sachs' share."

"How much?" Li He couldn't control his excitement.

"47.746 billion U.S. dollars." He tried his best to conceal his inner excitement, but he still couldn't control his trembling voice.

"Not bad, not bad." Li He hurriedly lit a cigarette, took several puffs, and asked after a long while, "Add our original principal, including these few profits, and the money in Yuanda Group's account, How much cash do we have?”

I have made profits three times before and after, and the profits I made were all continued to invest, and money just made money.

"Our book cash is 65.173 billion." Shen Daoru reported an accurate figure.

"Very good, very good." Li He finally realized that he was now a rich man. But it is not necessarily the richest man in the world. It would be too naive to simply believe that people such as Walton, Bill Gates, and Buffett selected by the media are the pinnacle of personal wealth.

The next day, a 15-person team composed of lawyers, foreign trade personnel, and auditors dispatched by Shen Daoru arrived at Brak Airport.

Li He arranged for Ding Shiping to pick him up at the airport.

The person leading the team this time was Pan Youlin, the general manager of Yuanda Investment, and it was also the first time for Li He to meet him.

At the International Hotel, Li He asked Ding Shiping to prepare a sumptuous dinner for everyone, but he did not show up.

After the banquet, he called Pan Youlin over, and Pan Youlin couldn't wait to report the situation to him.

"We established three foundations in Switzerland at your request, all in the name of offshore companies. At the same time, before we came, we sent a fax to CS Consulting Company in Prague and hired them as our consultants."

"They are the only one?" If foreign investors want to save time and trouble in the Czech Republic, the process of hiring a local consulting company is indispensable. It is not only about auditing and accounting issues, but also a disguised form of public service, spending money to buy safety.

"Ernst \u0026 Young International Accounting has signed an agreement with CS Consulting. They have established a new consulting company whose members are all professional Czech foreign trade consultants. The president is Norwalk, who was previously the vice president of Czech Strogibert. , a very capable person who has collaborated with our company before.”

"Ernst \u0026 Young?" Li He was not too reassured about this company. After all, it was later reported that Ernst \u0026 Young was suspected of civil fraud in the collapse of Lehman Brothers.

"Yes, after all they are one of the four major international accounting firms."

"Then let's use them first." Li He had no other choice. "You guys need to rest for a while. You won't have anything to do in a few days."
