Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 840 Joint Press Conference 4

Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan are unlucky, that is a matter of the future. At present, the most we can make is a prediction, but it is better to focus on this moment. ABC reporters are already there eager to try. If they don't let people ask questions, they will really offend people.

Many matters of the U.S. Department of Defense require the cooperation of the media, and the major domestic radio and television companies cannot afford to offend. Ian Wright signaled to the ABC reporter that he could ask questions, and the other party looked better.

In recent years, ABC Radio and Television Company has developed rapidly and has become more popular than the other two companies. The Ministry of National Defense actually asked them to ask questions behind the other two companies. I felt slighted. It’s no wonder that the ABC reporter is so happy, but he is holding his breath right now!

ABC reporters don’t want to give face to the Ministry of National Defense. After all, they were the ones who acted unkindly. Moreover, the United States has always flaunted freedom of public opinion, and this is a good time to test it.

The ABC reporter asked: "Hello, Minister Weinberger, Mr. Bao Zixuan! I am ABC reporter Alice, and I would like to ask you two questions. What standards does the Ministry of National Defense refer to when selling decommissioned weapons and equipment, or is it done arbitrarily?"

"The public has the right to know, and I hope Minister Casper can give the public a reasonable explanation."

"At the same time, I would like to ask Mr. Bao, what is the purpose of purchasing decommissioned equipment? Is there any coercion by the US military? As far as I know, Heiyun Group helped the Soviet Union dispose of many decommissioned weapons and equipment and old machine tools. During the Falklands War, , and even purchased 1 billion pounds of British treasury bonds. Is it to achieve a certain balance, or is it because of spending money to buy peace."

Although these words were directed at Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan, Bao Zixuan was directly regarded as the one who was taken advantage of. Spending money to buy peace is something no one dares to admit on this occasion.

At this time, everyone looked at the two people on the stage to see how they would answer. Before, I felt that the questions from the previous two reporters were quite aggressive, but now it seems that they are just an appetizer at most.

Bao Zixuan also didn't expect the reporters from the radio and television company to be so aggressive. This was a no-holds-barred situation. The relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union was a major international issue. Let alone a businessman, not even the Secretary-General of the United Nations could do anything about it.

As expected of a lawyer, Casper Weinberg responded quickly enough. He said calmly: "The Ministry of National Defense will conduct strict reviews on bidding for the purchase of new weapons and equipment, as well as the sale of decommissioned weapons and equipment."

"For example, a total of three companies participated in the bidding this time, but in the end, the plans and quotations of Ford Motor and General Motors were not very reasonable. The Ministry of National Defense decided to cooperate with Heiyun Group. After all, everything in the Ministry of National Defense is funded by taxpayers. We must Responsible to all the American people.”

"The Ministry of National Defense's military procurement and transfers are completely open and transparent, just because of the need for confidentiality. A lot of data cannot be disclosed to the outside world. After all, the price of weapons determines their combat performance and advanced level."

No one could find anything wrong with Casper Weinberg's answer. It was because the two American car companies were unwilling to accept the offer that they cooperated with Heiyun Motors. As for what the two companies will say, Casper-Weinberg isn't worried at all. Moreover, plans have been made before, and even tender documents have been prepared. The materials are very complete and can withstand any inspection.

As for the Ministry of National Defense’s procurement of weapons and equipment, it must be kept confidential. If anyone knew, the Soviet Union would infer the combat performance of weapons based on their price. Everyone understands in this regard that President Reagan described the Soviet Union as extremely powerful.

After Casper Weinberg finished speaking, the target of the attack was already pointed at Mr. Bao, and everyone wanted to hear what this super-rich man had to say. Is there such a thing as balance, or spending money to buy peace?

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Miss Alice is very beautiful, but the questions she asked were quite harsh. It created a strong contrast, which at least made me a little nervous."

After Bao Zixuan said this, everyone laughed. They didn't expect that this young super rich man could still joke. Aren’t they saying that men in science and engineering are very straight and don’t know how to please girls? This is not very good at talking, at least that's how it appears at this time.

Bao Shoufu continued: "I have never considered spending money to buy peace before. I have always been kind to others and rarely offend others. Therefore, there is no such thing as being unsafe. At least I have never heard of anyone wanting to kill someone."

"You can make huge profits by buying second-hand equipment and selling it. This has been the case before, and I guess this time will be no exception."

"I have a personal question for you, Miss Alice; which school did you graduate from and what is your annual salary?"

Although I don’t understand what Bao Zixuan means, could it be that he wants to show off his wealth. But if you can communicate more with the super rich, no one will refuse.

Alice: "Columbia University, $80,000."

Unexpectedly, this reporter was quite straightforward and his answers were not muddled at all. No wonder he came to the Ministry of National Defense for an interview at such a young age. It turned out that he graduated from Columbia University. The Pulitzer Prize awarded by the Columbia University School of Journalism is the highest honor in American journalism, making Columbia's journalism program globally recognized as number one in the world.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It turns out that Miss Alice is a woman with both wisdom and beauty, and ABC Radio and Television Company is really stingy. If you can still work for Heiyun Group, your salary can at least be doubled."

What does this guy mean? Is he asking questions just to pick up girls? As a super rich man, he is also known as the world's number one diamond king. What kind of woman have you never seen before who wouldn’t be so bold in the Department of Defense? Even if you are flirting or picking up girls, you have to have your own place. This is not a place to be wild.

Seeing everyone's expressions, I knew there had been a misunderstanding. Bao Zixuan continued: "I don't mean anything else. If I'm wrong, please forgive me Miss Alice."

"I ask you about your annual salary because I want to use macro data as a reference so that everyone can have an idea."

"Heiyun Group has a very strong purpose in acquiring second-hand machine tool equipment from the Soviet Union. It only dares to disclose it to the media now that the problem has been solved."

"Most of the second-hand machine tools in the Soviet Union are produced in Germany. Their accuracy and quality are absolutely unparalleled, but they all require manual operation, which requires very high technicians."

After Bao Zixuan finished speaking, many people expressed approval. Many of the reporters are of German descent, and they are still very confident in the products of their motherland.

Bao Shoufu continued: "Heiyun Group had just been established at that time and lacked funds to purchase large-scale CNC machine tools. Even rich people would not sell it to me. After all, the main body of Heiyun is in Xiangjiang. Batumi does not allow some products to enter Xiangjiang. It is undisputed. fact."

"When you encounter a problem, you have to solve it, so you find a way to find a solution from other places."

"At that time, Rheinmetall wanted to lay off a group of old employees. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The old German machine tools in the Soviet warehouse were coupled with excellent German senior technicians. What does the combination of the two mean? Even if I don't I think you can guess it."

"It is with the joint efforts of this group of veteran technicians and the computer team that Heiyun Group successfully transformed the old machine tools. They were numerically controlled and the accuracy fully met the requirements for use."

"It is on this basis that Heiyun Group has developed the most advanced large-scale CNC machine tools in the world. It is currently leading the world. Large-scale CNC machine tools are being continuously produced in the factories of Heiyun Xiangjiang headquarters and Israeli branch. come out."

"Not counting these, the old machine tools renovated by Heiyun Group alone are worth as much as 13 billion U.S. dollars, and the cost is less than 500 million U.S. dollars. Including labor costs, material costs and other factors. Heiyun The group’s profit from this business is at least US$10 billion.”

"That is to say, Miss Alice has to work for 125,000 years to earn this money without eating or drinking. There is a lot of potential for retrofitting old equipment; it's just that no one has done it before. So I want to give some advice to those who have just started a business. A word of advice for young people: you must know how to discover business opportunities and act decisively.”

Bao Zixuan avoided the weapons and equipment in the Soviet warehouse very well. Most of those armored vehicles and tanks were used to deal with Iran. Even if you are making money, you cannot show it off, lest it cause unnecessary trouble.

Old machine tools can actually make so much money. No wonder Heiyun Group is developing so fast. Bao Zixuan is really good at business, and business opportunities are everywhere in his eyes.

Seeing that the effect was almost the same, Bao Zixuan continued: "As for the British treasury bonds, it is also because it is profitable. Of course, it is not that little interest. When the company has grown to the scale of Heiyun Group, it will not value the bond interest at all, but the larger The action needs to be implemented. It is still a commercial secret now, and everyone will understand by then."

This is in line with common sense, otherwise who could buy 1 billion pounds of war bonds in one go. This is not a question of more money or less, and Bao Zixuan doesn't look like he's been taken advantage of.

At this time, everyone felt that Bao Zixuan must have reached some internal deal with the British. No wonder he bought so many British war bonds. There are reasons for this. At this time, the reporter on the scene looked like he suddenly realized it. It seems that there was a misunderstanding before, but this super rich man has a clear goal.

British war bonds are well filtered out, which is what Mr. Bao wants to see. As for media coverage, there’s really no need to worry. There are too many shocking news leaks today; the Anglo-Malaysian Island War was news last year. The public is tired of hearing and no longer want to see too much news about the Falklands.
