Chapter 2033 Let's Discuss the Industry (Part 2)

Special rebar?

Facing the sudden delivery of the plan documents by Zhou Ming, Tisman was obviously caught off guard, but he was just stunned. Then he took the plan documents and took a look at them, and threw them to his analysis team.

"I know this steel factory, and I even have some shares in the company. Although the offer you gave is low, I can still make a decision to complete the transaction and package all the equipment of the factory to you." Tisman replied very happily.

In Tisman's view, the plan submitted by Zhou Ming is just a means of disturbance, so he will not pay too much attention to the plan. As long as it is not a key industry and the conditions are not too outrageous, he does not think there is a need for bargaining, let alone the steel factory is still owned.

Tisman also said: "Mr. Zhou Ming, if you still want rare earth factories, I think you should agree as soon as possible, because with the continuous development of the electronics industry, even the rare earth factories in the Great Lakes will only become higher and higher in the future. If you expect to use rebar as a condition, I advise Mr. Zhou Ming to give up this naive idea as soon as possible."

Tisman left these words and stood up and left. It was obvious that Tisman was reminding Zhou Ming to agree as soon as possible, and also reminding Zhou Ming that he had seen through Zhou Ming's purpose of lifting rebar.

Zhou Ming watched Teesman leave without just admonishment or explanation, but just handed over the plan documents to the middle-aged man beside him: "Director Li, let the rebar factory be negotiated as soon as possible. There is also the next plan, so we can try to lower the price."

This is the representative sent by the country urgently, and even the documents were rushed to work on the plane, but it is just right for Zhou Ming now.

Although the goal was achieved, Zhou Ming was not happy.

After all, if possible, Zhou Ming still hopes to get the rare earth industry as soon as possible, so that the country can influence the global electronics industry one day earlier. Unlike now, there is only a solution that is impossible.

However, Tesman returned to the room humming a small song. He called New York and briefly introduced the situation in Pittsburgh.

"What special rebar solution? Does this guy Zhou Ming really think that this trick can deceive me? I can only say that he is so naive!" Tisman said proudly.

It is not surprising that Piero and Freeman were able to propose such a plan. After all, the purpose of the rare earth industry has been exposed, and Zhou Ming must find another way. If Zhou Ming does not respond, it would be strange.

"Since Mr. Zhou Ming wants rebar so much, let's give it to him. Or we can discuss any other industries he will use in the future to trade, but we must not let go of the rare earth industry!"

Tisman nodded to show his understanding, and at the same time he expressed confidently: "Being cautious in the past did not understand the Chinese way. Now that he knows his trump card, he can't play tricks in front of us!"

With Director Li's active follow-up and Teesman's side not caring, the relocation and transfer of the special rebar factory was soon concluded. At the same time, the next round of talks between Zhou Ming and Teesman began again.

It was almost like a replica of the last round of talks. This time, Zhou Ming also came up with his own plan to re-made it as soon as he came up.

Zhou Ming said that he would continue to seek the best conditions for the rare earth industry. Zhou Ming said that after he returned, he reconsidered the situation of the entire rare earth industry and even the electronics industry.

"We admit that the electronics industry is constantly developing, but such development does not mean that the rare earth industry on the Great Lakes is all backward in technology. Even if such enterprises do not perform depreciation calculations, they cannot calculate according to their formulas."

Zhou Ming continued: "And these rare earth industries in the Great Lakes are basically outdated enterprises. Most of their downtime have been more than seven years. Many of the machines and equipment cannot be used in the middle and need to be customized and replaced. At the same time, due to the long downtime, many experienced engineers have not stayed, which further reduced the value of these rare earth industries!"

Tisman listened to Zhou Ming's words and expressed his impatient expression: "Mr. Zhou Ming, you and I should know that the focus of the problem is not the value of these rare earth equipment!"

"It's a patented technology in the rare earth industry!"

Tesman did not directly tell that he was just robbing it, but he still brought some tactfulness: "The work of rare earth refining itself is not difficult. The difficulty is that you need enough patent protection, otherwise your equipment will be a pile of scrap iron when you buy it. This is the confidence to offer the price now. If you want to really eat the entire industry of rare earths, you have to pay some money!"

But I'm not happy to be dealt like this!

Zhou Ming didn't know that Tesman was reminding himself that the money could not be lost, but Zhou Ming was ready, so he saw Zhou Ming take back his plan and then came up with another plan.

"Then let's put aside the rare earth industry. I'll discuss it with the central government when I go back, but we can first talk about the relocation of these manufacturing plants." Zhou Ming said.

Manufacturing factory?

Tisman took Zhou Ming's document and immediately sneered. Sure enough, Zhou Ming started this after the stalemate of the rare earth industry.

Do you want to use other solutions to divert attention and mess up the entire situation again, so that you can’t take care of the beginning and end?

I have clearly seen through it once, but now I am here again. Is it true that the skills of the donkey are exhausted?

Shaking his head gently, Tisman handed the document to his analysis team without even reading it: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I think it is necessary for us to talk about something that has practical significance, rather than this boring thing. No business negotiation can be controlled by a little cleverness."

Tisman was already reminding, but Zhou Ming spread his hands and said, "I don't understand what Mr. Tisman is talking about. I am carrying out this negotiation with a very serious attitude."

What Zhou Ming said is the truth. First of all, let alone the importance of the rare earth industry in Zhou Ming's eyes, it is just that even though he knows that Tesman will make all kinds of difficult and difficult to give up on the rare earth industry relocation and acquisition plan, Zhou Ming asked Chen Shu and Ye Ning and others to do it seriously. What if?

"Okay, it seems that Mr. Zhou Ming is very independent, so let's continue to talk about the manufacturing factory plan."

At this time, Teesman's analysis team had quickly browsed the entire file and roughly told Teesman that there was no big problem with the plan, but the valuation was a bit low, especially the compensation for investors, which was almost no.

It is impossible not to mention that as a world-leading bank, the Citi analysis team led by Teesman is still very skillful. After roughly passing it over, I found out all the problems.

"The problem is like the rare earth industry. The factories and enterprises in the Great Lakes are all old factories in the past, and the equipment and machines are too old. We also have to bear a lot of costs in the future. Therefore, if the price is too high, we might as well order brand new ones directly."

Zhou Ming continued: "As for patent issues, compared with the rare earth industry, most of these manufacturing industries are ordinary manufacturing industries without technical content, just like lighters and belts. I think Mr. Tisman doesn't think there are many patent issues in it."

Compared to his tough attitude on the issue of the rare earth industry, Tisman's attitude is softer when facing ordinary manufacturing factories. He just hopes that Zhou Ming can give more. After all, they have a lot of investment in these factories and they need to recover part of their investment.

Here, Zhou Ming became tough again, saying that Tisman was wrong about the issue.

"If I remember correctly, many factories in the Great Lakes have been shut down for a long time. Mr. Tisman, what you should worry about now is to throw out all these factories as soon as possible, because if you continue to shut down indefinitely, not only will you not be able to recover a cent of your cost, but these machines and equipment will even continue to depreciate!"

Zhou Ming finally tried to mention: "Of course, if Mr. Tisman is willing to package the rare earth industry with these manufacturing plants, I don't mind raising the price a little."

Such a proposal was rejected by Tesman without any surprises, and Tesman told Zhou Ming to redeem one code.

"If Mr. Zhou Ming wants to manufacture a factory, this can be negotiated in terms of value, but as the upstream core industry of the electronics industry, its value can be infinitely magnified."

Tisman even mentioned the current value of the Internet. Perhaps a breakthrough in rare earth technology can lead to the technological development of electronic chips, and then create huge value on the Internet: "So the value of the rare earth industry must be the highest, and it cannot be compared with other ordinary manufacturing industries!"

OK, since Tisman is so persistent, it doesn’t matter to Zhou Ming. Next, Zhou Ming continued to discuss in detail with Tisman on the relocation plan of the ordinary manufacturing factory.

Compared to his persistence in the rare earth industry, Tesman is obviously not so concerned about ordinary factories like this. Most of the negotiations are handed over to his own analysis team. The final result is quite similar to the plan proposed by Zhou Ming.

...

And when it came to the next meeting, Zhou Ming still adhered to his usual style and came up with the latest plan for the rare earth industry and handed it over to Tisman.

At the same time, Zhou Ming kept emphasizing to Tisman that his analysis of the entire rare earth industry was complete and comprehensive, and the price was definitely the most reasonable.

Of course, Tismann rejected it without surprise, and he still said the same thing: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I really hope that you are a person with a long-term vision. The rare earth industry represents the future. The sooner you obtain the rare earth industry, the sooner you can occupy a certain position in the global electronics industry. This is an opportunity cost!"

Speaking of this, it can be said that Tesman is already "quite sincere".

However, Zhou Ming still did not agree, and said the same as last time: "Since Mr. Tisman is not satisfied with the plan, I will go back and change it. Let's talk about other industries this time..."

Talking about other industries?

Tisman frowned. For the first time, he felt something was wrong here...
