After the bidding meeting began, the Korean side first gave Jia Hongjian and others headphones for simultaneous interpretation, and then, just like Mrs. Wang selling melons, they began to praise the Kia company they were bidding for today. This kind of praise is basically the same as the praise at auction. However, although the Korean reporters are not authentic, the Korean government's bidding meeting is quite authentic - their simultaneous interpreters also hired Chinese simultaneous interpreters specifically to take care of their only Chinese team. characters! Although the voice of the simultaneous interpreter sounded like the so-called Mandarin in Daiwan, it was as soft as noodles made after soaking overnight and you couldn't even pick them up with chopsticks! However, Jia Hongjian still likes to hear such a voice - because she is a girl! Her voice sounded a bit like Sister Ling from the Lin Zhi family, a legendary immortal family. Jia Hongjian's body felt so soft with that soft voice!
After praising this Kia, the next step is to enter the bidding stage. Jia Hongjian and the others took their sealed portfolios and went over to bid. This time the bidding involved placing something like a donation box on the table. The opening was quite large, so that the file bag could be thrown directly into it. As for Jia Hongjian, naturally he just threw the portfolio in and it was done. This bidding was quite convenient.
In the portfolio, in addition to the bid price and general policies and strategies to brag about, there is also a bid deposit. This bidding deposit is similar to the deposit that sellers must pay in advance during an auction. This bidding deposit is also made to prevent others from randomly bidding and having no money to pay after winning the bid. But when the bidding deposit is paid. But it is different from the auction deposit. The auction deposit is collected in advance, but the bidding deposit is handed in along with the bidding document itself. And the margin ratio is also much lower. If Jia Hongjian remembers correctly, the deposit generally required for domestic auctions is 10% to 30% of the reserve price, while the deposit for this bidding is generally only less than 2% of the full price. Therefore, Jia Hongjian and the others have to pay a deposit of about 16 million US dollars.
The 16 million that can be put in the document bag is obviously not cash. But what Jia Hongjian gave here was not a check or a cashier's check. What he gave was a bid guarantee. This thing was a certificate issued by ICBC - Huaxia Hi-tech's current funds are basically All the above are stored in ICBC, and then what. As soon as I said hello, ICBC issued a bank guarantee directly. The meaning of this bank guarantee is that if China Hi-tech wins the bid and cannot pay, then ICBC will perform it on behalf of Hua Xia Hi-Tech Of course, it is not fulfilling the obligation to acquire Kia in full, but ICBC will fulfill the compensation for the Korean bid. Security Deposit Obligations. In other words, Jia Hongjian didn't get a penny from his side, but he asked ICBC to make sure nothing happened.
After everyone had submitted their bids, the Korean government opened the box of bids and counted how many bids had been submitted. After the statistics are done. The news media were allowed to enter the venue to take pictures, and then the notary office who was impartial about the bidding meeting spoke - "There are a total of 6 bids for Kia Motors this time, including French Renault Automobile Company, American General Motors Company, and South Korean Hyundai Motor Company. Group, Japan's Mazda Group. France's Peugeot Groupand Huaxia Hi-Tech from China."
Hearing this, Jia Hongjian felt that the competition was fierce enough! On the other hand, others are also surprised that a Chinese company is involved! General Motors' ones are better, others like Japan's Mazda and France's Renault etc., their expressions are like looking at aliens! Then he turned around to look at it from a distance. Still pointing and muttering! Whispering about your sister! Have you never seen a Chinese person?
Now Jia Hongjian feels that coming to Korea this time is super unpleasant! No matter if you are Korean or foreigner. Why do all of your sisters look like they¡¯ve never seen the world before? Is it okay for Chinese people to have money? You are not as surprised as the Koreans, are you?
To be honest, Jia Hongjian is really treated like a zoo animal now. But even so, he must try his best to show that he doesn't care on the surface - no matter what, we are now the representative of the Chinese in the eyes of many people outside, and we have to gain face for the Chinese! You can't just make a lot of noise like Bangzi's foreign students, making everyone dislike Bangzi, right? As Chinese people among foreigners, we must represent the Chinese people in their hearts with every action we take!
So, at this time, Jia Hongjian tried his best to act like he was very used to big scenes and a very gentleman, as if he didn't notice the surprised looks of others at all. Then, he gently took Ye Jing's hand, led her up, and then led the team outside as usual. Ye Jing's hands were a little cold, and she was holding Jia Hongjian a little hard. Jia Hongjian glanced at her face inadvertently and found that her face was still radiant, but through his handJia Hongjian felt that she must also be very unhappy, but she might have the same feeling as herself, so she is now working hard to create an image for the Chinese people!
Jia Hongjian never looked back to see the expressions of the others. After walking all the way to the elevator, Jia Hongjian waited until the elevator door was closed before turning to look at the other people. Everyone including Guo Konghui and others looked uncomfortable. At this time, Ding Haitao even frowned. He couldn't help but said: "These people are too too ignorant." What's wrong with us being Chinese? Do we have the same expression as the monkeys in the zoo? Tsk"
Before Jia Hongjian could speak, he heard Ding Haitao's teacher Guo Konghui speak, "Xiao Ding!" After calling Ding Haitao and quelling his complaints, Mr. Guo took a deep breath. Then he continued: "If you are wronged outside, just write down the grievance. We can never let others see us like this in the future! When we founded New China, the Americans thought it was a joke that we asked them not to cross the 38th parallel. As a result, we have to let the Americans know that we are not easy to mess with even if we risk our lives! From the past to the present, our country has developed from poverty. In the past, we were not even as good as India! It feels like a country in Africa to others. ! It¡¯s the kind that can¡¯t be helped! As a result, aren¡¯t we getting up now? Since we are angry, we must turn our grievances into motivation and work for the rise of our country¡¯s automobile industry! For our company to not be People see and work with this kind of eyes!¡±
Although Jia Hongjian felt in his mind that such a kind of preaching was really out of date from the red era, hearing these words was like seeing those posters from the Red Guard period. It was purely a retro and antique look. I'm in a rush, but I have to say that what Lao Guo said is really effective! Not to mention Ding Haitao, who still had "historical limitations" and was so excited when he heard this, even Jia Hongjian had the urge to go home and start working and start building the motherland!
After the group of people here returned to the hotel, they were still in the same state. And on the second day, this state was even more stimulated. It turns out that Ye Jing, a beautiful girl, is a bit awkward. She knows that she is being treated like a monkey here, but she still cares about what others think, especially when she buys a bunch of newspapers on the street and asks the translator girl to translate. What she chose was quite skillful. She basically looked for newspapers that had photos of the bidding meeting in them.
These newspapers were placed in front of the translator. After translating a few sentences, the translator was too embarrassed to continue translating! It turns out that in these Korean newspapers, China's Huaxia Hi-Tech Group was either not mentioned at all, and only good things about Ford and Renault were said! They keep saying that if it is acquired by Ford, Kia will have a bright future and so on. How many new models can be introduced by then, how strong the financial guarantee will be, and how many technologies can be introduced! It is even said that with the guidance of Ford, they can enter the huge US market and compete with Japanese cars!
Then, it was as if they didn¡¯t see any Chinese manufacturers coming to bid at all, as if the huge Huaxia Hi-Tech Co., Ltd. had just disappeared out of thin air! It was as if Jia Hongjian and Ye Jing were ghosts, and no one could see them after they passed by!
This is considered relatively "friendly". Unfriendly newspapers and other lower-grade newspapers directly started asking what Huaxia Hi-Tech is! Yes, they asked in a very curious tone, what kind of group is Huaxia Hi-Tech from China? Does this sound like a serious and normal question? Okay, so the next sentence is not normal, right? They actually asked directly in the article: "Why would a Chinese company come over to acquire Kia Motors in the Republic of Korea? Who do they think they are? Think they can steal technology from the well-known car companies in the Republic of Korea? ? What a wonderful idea they have! The government should put in place some restrictions to restrict companies from backward countries, especially those countries where thieves and swindlers are prevalent, from investing in our country to prevent them from stealing our country¡¯s technology!¡±
Hey! Your sister! You Koreans still have the nerve to say that China is a country where thieves and swindlers are rampant? That's your Korea, okay? It has always been said in Japan that all kinds of pachinko parlors, that is, gambling pachinko parlors, are controlled by Korean gangsters! In addition, Koreans are famous for selling their bodies in Japan! There are Korean women who used to sell it, and there are also Korean gangsters who specialize in making money from this kind of skin! Then all kinds of vicious crimes can easily be committed by Koreans! Even Koreans abroad are often withdrawn. For example, the school shooting in the United States was caused by a Korean, wasn't it?
??????????????????????????????????????¡ Really! This is definitely a thief shouting to catch a thief!
