Chapter 522: Rejection.
January 07, 2022
Ye Qing looked in the photo at the alert robot in firing position in an exhibition hall that is not open to the public. and stopped there, he thought about all the topics, but in the end, he didn't think about it.
Originally, he believed that the old American president hoped that the Monster Heavy Industry could transfer half of its production capacity to build a new American version of the Monster Heavy Industry. As a result, he had a deeper conspiracy, directly targeting Monster Heavy Industry's most valuable military product.
Of course, the first thing Ye Qing thought of was to manufacture this product in China, so he cooperated with two giant military supply groups to develop automatic sight mounts for alert robots.
However, another country on the other side of the Pacific quickly realized this through intelligence espionage and discovered its great value.
The alert robot has been developed and it is difficult for the United States to access it. But as long as the Monster Heavy Industry has the technology, it will become popular technology, producing watchdog robots, defensive guards, etc., and all this is done only by changing the appearance of the robot and ultimately changing the name. .
No wonder they did not arrange for Ye Qing and his party to visit a counterpart civilian tech company yesterday, but arranged a visit to the highly sensitive Raytheon Company, which mainly produces military hardware.
As it turned out, they wanted to win Monster Heavy Industry and build a tech company focused on military products. The advantages granted by the President were not insignificant.
"If you come to set up a factory, you will certainly appreciate the different tax policies announced earlier." At the same time, he approved as president "To ensure that all civilian products would be unhindered in the world." And like that, photo-ionization purifiers could bring in hundreds of billions in operating revenue if they opened up the European and American markets.
"Should I go?"
Mr. President only needed one answer, and Ye Qing had been thinking of other things since receiving the President's invitation, but he didn't expect it to be for military reasons, so the final answer will always be the same.
"Thank you, Mr. President, for your sincere invitation." Ye Qing pondered for tens of seconds and finally confirmed his thoughts, “I will seriously consider this matter. Mr. Chairman, you understand that our Monster Heavy Industry is still in the development stage, and after I return to China, our Next step in heavy truck production is the production of the mobile phone products which will be launched very soon. So it will be some time before I can give you an answer. "
The president heard Ye Qing's refusal and smiled slightly, “Capital knows no borders. Much like Apple, most of its mobile phone products are made in China, but that doesn't stop companies from looking to the bigger company, the United States, and Monster Heavy Industry has such potential. "
Ye Qing silently estimated the time in his heart. Eight or nine minutes have passed.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. President." Ye Qing was just dragging the time now: "This trip to Washington made me feel a lot of emotion. A great company is by no means confined to a certain corner, but to expand globally. After I return, I will readjust the company's development strategy. "
At that moment, Ye Qing noticed that the president's eyebrows twisted slightly. Obviously, Ye Qing's non-positive way of responding made him uncomfortable.
“Mr. Ye, business is the same as politics. Only by learning to compromise can you win until the end. If you want to enter European and American markets, you have to follow the rules of the game in European and American markets. Mr. President nodded, intending to dismiss the guest: 'After you get back, think about it.'
Almost ten minutes passed, Ye Qing stood up and put away the gift the president presented to him, "Then I'll think about it when I return. Mr. President, thank you for your invitation."
The president nodded again and motioned for his assistant Weisz to accompany him along the path.
Perhaps because of the inconvenience of the meeting, Weisz, who was smiling before, broke her face when she came out, handed Ye Qing a business card, and said: "Go straight ahead and turn around left and you will reach the outside of the Capitol."
Her contact details were on the business card. If Ye Qing changed his mind, he could call her.
Outside the Capitol, Yun Shi, the Master Metal Expert, and the two Monster Labors were waiting at the door. Several Chinese business leaders who had to leave the scene and return to the hotel unexpectedly waited in front of the Cadillac. Seeing Ye Qing coming down the steps exiting the Capitol, they immediately came up to him talking and laughing and arched their hands in congratulations.
"How lucky are you?"
Ye Qing smiled bitterly.
"The president helps you advertise for free and also invites you to a private meeting. He really wants to talk to you about cooperation."
Glass King Cai Songhua patted Ye Qing's arm like a slot machine: "If there is cooperation, there will be benefits that you don't know where they come from. Ionization purifiers will gain benefit gold every day. Once the European and American markets are released, hundreds of billions of dollars will be collected as if they were toys. "
"Isn't that good news, you have to celebrate this tonight."
"It is natural to receive guests. Choose the guest as they wish."
Ye Qing smiled bitterly: "The president asked me to talk about cooperation, and he took the approval of the ionization purifiers as one of the negotiating points, but I tactfully refused."
"What?"
"What?"
"Damn Madonna."
The eyes of several tall men looked at Ye Qing as if they were looking at an alien, with question marks in their eyes: "Dear Ye, do you know? By the time the president's assistant came to invite you, how many overseas business leaders got jealous and almost wanted to kill you?"
"How many people have dreamed of such a good thing, but you extrapolated it?"
"Are they asking you to pay too hard in taxes? It doesn't make sense. The more you ask, the more benefits you will get. The United States is a centuries-old capitalist country and the oligarchs of its countries are the kings. They determine the highest level of transactions with regard to the distribution of commercial interests. This new president is also a great capitalist, and no one can refuse his mandates."
"It's okay. In front of the president, you certainly won't refuse without permission."
“Dear Ye, you are still young. Trade barriers, in the words of us old men, are a compromise. If you want to make money, there has to be cooperation. Go back and think carefully, the market in Europe and America is too big."
"Yes, yes... We're not asking you what you talked about, it's a trade secret. Take a walk. Two blocks away is a Man Han mansion. When China became the Republic of China, the prince of the Qing dynasty fled with imperial chefs and opened the Man Han Mansion. Today is a foreign branch of Chinese cuisine. Let's go try and taste."
These old bigwigs are all human beings, knowing that since Ye Qing rejected the president's proposal, he naturally had his considerations. After briefly talking about their thoughts, they stopped trying to persuade him and instead asked him to offer him dinner to increase everyone's feelings.
Each of these people is worth countless billions. They can invite their main guest over for dinner and it is rude for them not to please one of them at a party. The main thing is to become friends with Ye Qing.
The seat of the Man Han building was already secured, and when the courtesy car pulled up at the door, it naturally caused the shock of the Man Han building.
The treats were all ready and Ye Qing took out the pen the president gave him and showed it to them letting everyone enjoy it.
"So what did you give the president? I think about when you got up and held the box in your hand. "
"A spinning top!" Ye Qing smiled triumphantly.
"A spinning top? Haha ~ Mr. President must be very puzzled." The gang laughed: "This gift is really unique."
