Chapter 1578 The benchmark for collective trading

In the end, the San Francisco Chinese Chamber of Commerce represented more than a dozen machinery companies, including Yangcheng and Linchu, and signed machine tool ordering contracts with Hanover, Germany and Harvey, Germany, according to the allocation plan negotiated for the second time.

The contract signing ceremony was held on the main stage of the expo and was held very grandly and formally.

First, Zhou Ming signed a contract with Liang Tian and Li Hua, the bosses of more than a dozen companies, respectively, and then Zhou Ming signed a contract with Hailier and Elskin to complete the entire signing activity.

"This machine tool ordering contract is the largest transaction at the fair so far. This is a very good start because it means that we have further increased our understanding and mutual trust. It has very important epoch-making significance and will become a benchmark at the fair..."

After signing the contract, Zhou Ming stood on the main stage and made a sleek speech. He kept praising the excellence of this transaction, and also praised the targets of this transaction, Hannover, Germany and Harvey, the United States, and praised these two companies as very outstanding companies in the international industry. This time, the expo was also honored to have the support of these two international companies.

On the stage, Hanover's boss Hayleil and Harvey's boss Elskin stood on the stage respectively. They actually didn't want to stand on the stage, especially Zhou Ming's side, because they were actually not satisfied with the contract they just signed.

But there is nothing we can do about this. Zhou Ming is always dissatisfied with such a large order contract. Since that's the case, just let them do it.

But no matter what Hailil and Elskin think, in fact, the contract between the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and theirs this time has indeed become the benchmark at this expo because of this public signing.

Because we should know that there are many domestic companies participating in this expo, and they are available in various industries. They not only showcase their own product technology, but also many showcase companies themselves, hoping to introduce foreign funds and advanced equipment for industrial upgrading cooperation.

Before this public signing, most of these companies were fighting each other, and the business owners went privately to negotiate with foreign merchants, but the result was that they were all very miserable by foreigners.

On the one hand, this is caused by the mutual price reduction and price increase of domestic manufacturers, but more importantly, foreign business owners have more experience in participating in such expos, so they know how to deal with it. And foreign business owners have their own hands on the world market, just to defeat these Chinese business owners.

In order to get orders, these domestic manufacturers have to lower prices on their products and raise prices on their introduction of equipment and investment.

Now Zhou Ming's collective authorization signing has undoubtedly guided them a clear path.

Before, everyone fought alone, and in order to get orders and equipment and investment, they of course had to compete with each other.

These foreign capitalists are all coming out of the smoke of the shopping malls. How can we not see this opportunity? How can we not use this opportunity to make profits?

But now it is different. Lead by Zhou Ming and the Huashang Chamber of Commerce, everyone forms a whole. As the only strategic buyer or seller, when discussing with foreign capital, they first avoid internal friction between each other. Secondly, Zhou Ming also has a better understanding of the situation abroad and is easier to communicate with foreigners. Finally, it is also the most important thing, and can also form a strategic advantage in the situation of foreigners.

So here

After the public signing of the contract, more and more domestic exhibitors have found Zhou Ming, hoping to help and conduct unified external negotiations for their own industries.

Zhou Ming was very willing to consider these requirements. In fact, this was exactly the result Zhou Ming wanted. After all, no matter how old Zhou Ming was, whenever he saw those company bosses constantly compete with their own people in order to obtain foreign order cooperation and introduce equipment investment, and the result was that their interests were minimized, Zhou Ming felt that these people were simply stupid.

Although Zhou Ming can understand that the situation of their company is not optimistic, and if he does not do so, he may go bankrupt.

It can be understood but it does not mean that Zhou Ming can accept their actions.

Zhou Ming really wanted to scold them for being short-sighted and unite them, but Caitlin told him that doing this is unrealistic. On the contrary, he had to be able to help them solve problems. For example, let them be included in the chamber of commerce system and the chamber of commerce will come forward for them, which would be much better.

The idea is undoubtedly very ideal, but Caitlin also reminded Zhou Ming that this ideal is probably not so easy to realize.

Zhou Ming also understands this point. After all, no one has ever been able to break out from all kinds of open and hidden arrows in the shopping mall. If no one knows you, Zhou Ming, how could it be so easy to believe you? What if you want to do something bad in the name of everyone, or you will be able to sell everyone yourself?

It is precisely because of this kind of suspicion that Zhou Ming also needs to set an example more important.

Therefore, when Liang Tian and Li Hua found themselves, Zhou Ming immediately realized that this was an excellent opportunity to set an example, so he immediately organized the program.

But at the same time, Zhou Ming's constant worries gradually emerged. Except for Li Hua and Liang Tian, ​​others were more or less distance and defense against Zhou Ming, or even Liang Tian might have a little bit of it, but his acting skills were more natural, which made Zhou Ming not realize.

What's more, it is someone like Li Zhongzhuo. Not only did he betray Zhou Ming himself, but he could even use a scam to rent a machine tool to cause trouble behind Zhou Ming. Isn't this the result of everyone's continuous development and growth of Zhou Ming's distance and defense?

When they learned that Li Zhongzhuo signed a contract with Elskin privately on his back, and even others were ready to move, Liang Tian and Li Hua felt that the sky was about to collapse. They knew very well what Li Zhongzhuo and others thought. If there was a way to buy machine tools from Americans in advance, why buy them collectively? Everyone has the same concept as everyone does not have?

This idea is standard selfish, but in fact, such business people are the majority. Otherwise, why would Zhou Ming have to work hard to set this benchmark?

It is normal for some people to be selfish, but what is terrible is that the selfishness of this group of people will easily lead others to do this together, which will eventually lead to the bankruptcy of the entire plan. This is the most terrifying thing.

In the end, Zhou Ming was calm. He was sure that Elskin was definitely not a good man and a trustworthy man. He could not trade profits for the market, but the characteristics of capital meant that he would still have to make money back in the end. Because if he could not make enough profits and lost Zhou Ming, his biggest customer, Elskin could not explain to the shareholders behind him.

Therefore, Zhou Ming competed with Elskin for patience.

Later, it turned out to be like this. In just one day, Elskin issued a loan contract and asked Li Zhongzhuo to lied that he was "trading" contract and lobby for others to sign it.

As a result, the situation was exposed, which brought the situation back to Zhou Ming. Zhou Ming took this opportunity to reintegrate the team in one fell swoop, leading machinery companies like Liang Tian and Li Hua to form a whole to negotiate with the Germans and Americans, and finally set a benchmark result.

Things seemed to be perfect, but in fact, Zhou Ming also felt very risky, with a big gambling element.

After all, if Elskin is more calm or Elskin is more capable, the shareholders behind him have a longer vision and directly give up the interests of this entire expo and sign a transaction contract with Li Zhongzhuo and others at a fair price, Zhou Ming would not be able to stop it. The most he could do was to lead Liang Tian and Li Hua and others, and form a larger group as much as possible to negotiate with foreign countries.

After all, I am just a businessman and cannot be as coercive and binding as it is to state units when negotiating for high-speed rail procurement.

However, the final result was very good. After the benchmark for machine tool procurement was established, other exhibitors also flocked to Zhou Ming, hoping to get collective help.

Of course, Zhou Ming was very willing to accept it because this is the significance of hosting this expo himself: as long as he has enough resources and everyone’s cooperation is close enough, the wealthy families in the United States will not dare to easily turn against each other.

It seems so natural, but in fact, due to the different situations of enterprises in various industries, such as the construction of joint venture electronic equipment, the export of wires and cables, and the export of clothes, shoes, hats and lighters, etc., the various varieties and categories are complex, so it is not possible to make such a one-size-fits-all decision.

When industry representatives from various industries delivered their needs to him, Zhou Ming felt that his whole head was getting bigger when facing these various things.

Just kidding, no matter how many years I have been, I have only experienced a little bit of the industry. How can I understand all the industries now?

In my last life, I was just a worker, and I was the top sales team leader. I didn’t even understand my own company and my own industry, let alone other industries.

In this life, I basically used my memories from the previous life to go astray. Most of them played financial capital, and I had basically not studied any industrial development seriously.

Including the companies in my hands, Li Qingyuan, Penguin is Ma Weixun, Sobao is Zhang Yun, they are mainly these big guys who were starting a business, and at most they gave some suggestions on development planning and financial support, as well as affirmation of themselves, and nothing else was gone. Even the board of directors and shareholder meetings of these companies had never been to the board of directors and shareholder meetings of these companies several times.

That's right, Zhou Ming has a headache about these things, but fortunately Caitlin is still there.

When she was in Brighton, she knew that she was a woman with great wisdom and closeness to demons. However, in normal times, she would deliberately give up the C position to herself and be a virtuous wife behind her husband, so that she would seem to have no presence.

But at this critical moment, Caitlin stood up.

Of course, it is not that Caitlin has a detailed understanding of hundreds of industries around the world. No matter how smart she is, she is still a personal person. Such things are simply unscientific.

But Caitlin is the current head of the Harrusburg family. She doesn't know about the industry, so naturally there are people in the family who know about it, but no one in the family can also hire a special planning company to provide plans with high salaries.

That's what Caitlyn did.
