Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home - Chapter 278 Demasi

Luo Cheng wanted to take the cube car 2.0 out of the country because the design theory of the engine was originally based on the model that was continuously improved by later generations. Even in the system, this is a low-level engine, but low-level here means that some technologies are not used and appear low-level, rather than backward.

But if you want to export, you can’t call it a cube car. You have to call a minivan, which is like a boxy loaf of bread like in the West. In China, many people have never heard of bread and have never eaten it. Naturally, no one understands the meaning of the image.

In addition, in addition to the model being called a van, the car must also have a brand name. When you go out, you have to have a slightly foreign name. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the meaning, as long as the name makes you feel good. For example, the Shanghai brand watch uses the place of production as its brand name, so it is still popular in China but not popular abroad.

For example, Toyota Volkswagen or something like that, how can it be as good as Ferrari just from the name? Although Chinese people don’t understand why Ferrari’s cars are called Ferrari.

Therefore, at the end of last year, we handed it over to the steel rolling mill and asked it to help try out the export van. In addition to having more seat belts than domestic ones, the front of the car also has a logo in the shape of letters DMX, with the Chinese brand name, Demanxi.

Why did Luo Cheng choose this name? In fact, Luo Cheng was just messing around. I just thought that someone would buy this car in the future, and then someone would marvel at your financial resources and say that you actually bought a ~~Deman (Ma) Xi~~ Yeah (Ya). Decades later, there was a Four Sons store. When customers entered the store, they shouted, “I want Demacia.”

Although no one has discovered Luo Cheng’s bad taste in this era, this name is indeed good for foreigners. At least to people who don’t understand Chinese, it sounds much better than Hongqi or something like that. I feel that the name of this car sounds good, but even if the name sounds good, it is a Chinese brand after all. According to the current exchange rate, a business version costs 50,000 (US dollars) in foreign exchange, and a regular version costs 40,000.

But people who know cars, people who know some luxury vehicles from other countries, if it’s not because of the brand’s origin. This price is actually relatively cheap compared to luxury cars.

Therefore, many envoys stationed in China are bargaining. If you want to be cheaper, the reason why they are cheaper is simple. They won’t talk to you about performance because they have already tried it. The direct reason is that if this car is made in Britain, Germany, Japan or the Soviet Union, they will all recognize the price. Only in your country, this is not the case. Many people buy things for others and can serve as envoys abroad. It is normal for them to know some wealthy people in their own country.

Although minivans are much cheaper than foreign luxury cars, they feel unreliable because they are made in China. But as long as it’s still cheap, for some rich people, it’s actually good to buy it for fun. Regardless of the car logo and country of origin, it can be regarded as buying a luxurious toy, with a sofa, air conditioning, a six-speed transmission, and a hydraulic booster pump. The shock absorption effect is also very good, and it is very good for farmers to buy it for hunting and leisure. As long as it’s cheaper, they can ignore your origin brand.

Those who can become diplomatic and trade personnel in China are basically people with online IQ. They can see that many people who come into contact with this car are interested. If they are really not interested, they will not discuss the price with you.

But what is really annoying is the Albanian ambassador. Brotherly country, just because this country supports China internationally, and in addition to the June 1st, conflicts arise in Sino-Soviet relations. Ah Yiran stood on Zhong’s side, and Su’s side cut off its aid to Ah. Therefore, starting from 1961, China provided all-out assistance to Afghanistan.

In the past three years, Zhongyuan itself has been facing disasters, but it has also cut back on food and clothing, tightened its belt, and sent steel, mechanical equipment, instruments, and even some instruments imported from China to Afghanistan thousands of miles away. Not to mention other supplies, the trucks there now are all Jiefang trucks.

According to Ah Ni’s attitude, even if you don’t need it, if you, the big brother in China, have it, I, as the younger brother, must have it too. If the machine is placed in the open air and it gets damaged in the rain, that’s okay. If it’s broken, it’s gone. The Chinese big brother will give it to you again.

Anyway, their attitude towards China is, if you have it, we must have it too. We ask you for help, just like a younger brother asks his elder brother for help. If we don’t ask for it from you, who should we ask for it from?

Therefore, when Ah’s ambassador saw the van, his first thought was, brother, why didn’t you tell me that you had such a van? If you don’t have enough, like Hongqi sedan, which can’t produce 100 units a year, then there’s no point in talking about it. But you actually offered such a good car for sale without even telling me.

Is it our friendship between China and Afghanistan that is more important, or is it the little money that is more important? Anyway, our appeal is very simple. As the eldest brother, you have to take care of me. For a car like that, just tell us how much you can give us.

There is no news about the export of vans from Ngee Ann Automobile Factory for more than a month. In fact, we don’t know the situation there at all. Foreign trade staff have been discussing the real export price. It doesn’t matter if it is cheaper. It is not easy to find out how much it costs to build a car at the Ngee Ann Automobile Factory.

Don’t listen that an engine costs five thousand, a transmission costs more than one thousand, glass costs several thousand, and a car air conditioner costs another thousand. These quoted prices are all external retail prices. For example, if other car manufacturers want an engine priced at RMB 5,000, the wholesale price is RMB 3,000. And three thousand is still not the cost price. Not counting technology, labor and other costs, the raw materials are actually only a few hundred yuan.

In order to export, it doesn’t matter if the country subsidizes money to the automobile factory. As long as it is not really exporting at a loss, there will be no problem. For example, a pound of rice costs more than 10 cents. If you get foreign exchange for export and sell it for 5 cents, then it is really not allowed to be exported. But for the cars of Ngee Ann Automobile Factory, some professionals estimate it a little higher. Except for the fact that the glass is imported, the tires are purchased by the automobile factory, but they are also domestically produced tires. The price is higher because of the automobile factory. As far as the country is concerned, the tire factory earns a thousand yuan from the automobile factory. If there is a profit of 800 yuan, the 800 yuan still belongs to the country.

So even if a car from an automobile factory costs 5,000, as long as many parts are purchased. The state can help you export with RMB 4,000 without losing money. Later generations will often receive export subsidies at a certain period, and the amount of the subsidy will be calculated based on your product.

Therefore, it was obviously some foreign ambassadors who were bargaining, but the people in charge of foreign trade transactions in China did not inform the manufacturer of the real owner’s reasons.

In their view, as long as the price is not too much, a car can be even cheaper by 5,000 yuan or more. Even if the price is a little higher in China, it doesn’t matter. We still pay more than 80,000 for the business type and more than 60,000 for the regular type. Just give the money to the car manufacturer.

Of course, when the cooperation is finally concluded, we will discuss it with the car manufacturers. The automobile factory is a state-owned enterprise. As the factory director, a state cadre, Luo Cheng has to be more conscious and dedicated to the country.

The real headache now is Albania, which can’t refuse at all. They don’t just buy it, they want your ‘help’. If you give less, people who treat you as a younger brother will still say that your elder brother is stingy. If you give too much, the output of Ngee Ann Automobile Factory is not high now, and there are still places to purchase domestically. If you really give more, considering the current output of Ngee Ann Automobile Factory , don’t even think about exporting it.

Not exporting is not just a matter of not earning foreign exchange. As before, if you want other countries to recognize your country’s currency, that is to make other countries have demand for your country’s products, take your currency, and have a place to use it.

Now Britain, France and some other countries allow Chinese forklifts to be used as payment to purchase some domestic products. Some businessmen in Japan are also willing to sell some technological products to win. Because with Chinese money, you can also buy engines and forklifts, instead of just buying grain and agricultural and sideline products.

The ambassador of Albania, you opened your mouth shamelessly, but the key is that you are selling it, not just for domestic use.

As a result, there is no news about the export of the van of Ngee Ann Motor Vehicles. My international brothers will not be able to give it. The higher authorities are now discussing how to compensate the Ngee Ann Automobile Factory.

It’s no good if we don’t export it at all. When we first asked foreign trade staff to recommend it, many countries already knew about it. Even Japan, a country that is very hostile at home but must respect international laws and cannot go to war. They all want to buy a few cars. As before, once they see something with technology, their first thought is how to turn it into something of their own.

By the way, it doesn’t matter how much technological content this van has, even if it’s just superficial, they pay attention to knowing the basics. Buy a few and dismantle them. If you are strong, they will learn from you. If you are weak, they will feel relieved, but they will never reduce their vigilance. Not only China, but whenever something new comes out internationally, they want to ‘learn’ from it.

According to the above meaning, the automobile factory is trying its best to increase production. Before the output is reduced, the Ngee Ann Automobile Factory itself cannot handle a few of these cars. But in this case, who is better to say it?

The main thing is that many people in the outside world may not know that Luo Cheng and Dai Qianqian’s affairs have been settled. But for people who reach a certain level, this is no secret at all. Luo Cheng is no longer just Principal Dai’s protégé, but his grandson-in-law. We can be considered a family. If we don’t arrange enough people to talk about this matter, we might make people go crazy.

Finally, Luo Cheng unexpectedly received a call from Dai Tiande while he was resting in the office. Dai Tiande told him about the van on the phone and asked him to focus on the overall situation. Albania came to plead with them. They must be allocated ten regular five business vans every month. They should be called Dema. West.

This is easy to say, but people agree that as long as this is enough, it is equivalent to assisting Albania with another one million vehicles a month, and more than ten million a year.

And since this Demasi brand car has been displayed, it is also a good thing to be sold to other countries. It at least means that China has caught up in the automotive field and is trying its best to meet export orders. At that time, the higher authorities will also give Ngee Ann Automobile Factory a red-letter document. If units from other places are interested in this car, they can directly reject it.

However, Luo Cheng can rest assured that the money and food that should be given to the automobile factory will still be given, but with the current output of the automobile factory, it is equivalent to depriving the automobile factory of its independent sales rights to Demasi.

His daughter-in-law and grandfather have come forward, so what can Luo Cheng say? The loss to him is not big. It has nothing to do with him if the state gives him the vehicles, as long as the car factory has money to bring in the money. I just want to tell the people below not to easily agree to sell Block Car 2.0 to others. Even if it is someone from the province, no matter which leader you say needs it, he can refuse it forcefully.

In this way, it seems that there are actually fewer cube cars 2.0 under control, but it can more directly hint to some leaders that things are difficult to handle. Only these few can be left in the factory in a month, but difficult things are not handled by representatives. No, just~~~you know.

Luo Cheng didn’t expect to encounter this on his first day back at the factory. It’s a pity that in the month he was away, all the cars produced were sold by the deputy director, otherwise he would have made a lot of profits. For example, there is a lake in Changcheng. Get some fish to take care of it. There are also teas from some places, or oranges from a certain place. Although the fruits are not on the market now, you can make arrangements in advance.

The day passed very quickly, especially since Luo Cheng’s office had a separate lounge, and he even took a nap in the afternoon. In fact, he didn’t sleep well last night. His restless heart made Luo Cheng wake up several times during the night, but he couldn’t take off his hands. So my sleep yesterday was actually not very good.

This time after get off work, it should be said that it was not quite the end of get off work, Luo Cheng left early again. When I got home, I saw Dai Qianxi and Qianqian’s mother busy in the yard.

I don’t know where I borrowed a hoe to tidy up a piece of land in the yard. When Luo Cheng came back, they said they were planting some vegetables in the yard to avoid waste. Anyway, there is ready well water for watering. But it was getting dark now, and they planned to rest when Luo Cheng came back.

Today they went to see the place where the art troupe was located. The environment was not very good, and it was still a base area from the previous revolutionary period. The place is remote and has not been repaired for a long time, so no one lives there. The local unit uses it as a warehouse. Now it’s given to a cultural troupe, so people have moved out.

It is incomparable to the regular civil service troupe in SH City, and is even worse than a dilapidated primary school. At least the elementary school still has decent classrooms.

We need to find funds for repairs. The art troupe belongs to the military district, so we need to find funds from the local military district. However, due to the nature of the cultural troupe, you can actually find donations from local units. But this matter is not urgent. Tan Meng and Zhao Qian can discuss it slowly after they come here. It should be coming in the next few days, and the reported address is where Luo Cheng lives.

Hearing that they would go to the military region here tomorrow to talk to the chief (you can call the chief if you are above the regiment level), Luo Cheng asked them to drive there. After Sissi’s art troupe was officially completed, they would use the donated The plan is to give the art troupe a 1.15 version of the cube car, and then give them a tricycle. At most, Xixi can take people to the car factory to perform a few charity shows. Just like in SH City, arrange a sitcom.

Situations are somewhat similar to dramas, but straightforward and simple. There may be less artistic content and it doesn’t look that professional, but according to Sissi, everyone likes to watch this kind of program whether in the city or in the countryside.

Anyway, as long as it is not for individuals, there is no problem with such donations. If you want to check, could it be that just because your daughter-in-law is in a cultural troupe, you can’t donate? Well, if my family members are from the military, I can’t have a family kiss between military and civilian families. Just like the 1068 Research Institute, Dai Tiande is not only a developer, but also a manager. They just donated his business car. Could it be that others couldn’t find out the relationship between Luo Cheng and him?

“Luo Cheng, my mother said she doesn’t want to live in a guest house anymore. She thinks it’s inconvenient to go back and forth. She said it’s okay to live with your sister and squeeze in.”

“With Xiaoyu and the others? Your mother came all the way here, why don’t you let her share a bed with my sister and the others?”

“What’s wrong, my mother said it herself. My mother likes people to be busy, wouldn’t your sister not want it?”

“That’s not true. My sisters all listen to me. I just feel that this is a bit embarrassing for my mother.”

“It’s okay, what’s this?”

Indeed, it is nothing these days. For some people with small houses, it is normal for their children to live in one house when they grow up. Even in the Northeast, there are people who sleep on the kang and have no house. Their sons are married and have wives, and they still sleep on the same kang as their parents. I have to do things and find time.

It would be nice if Sissi’s mother didn’t propose to share a room with Luo Cheng and the others. There were a few stools with boards on them, so they could sleep in the same room. For example, if the children live in the city and the parents are from the countryside, the parents go to the city to visit their children. Even if the children are married, they only have one room in the city. The parents cannot return on the same day, or If you want to stay for a few days, you may live with your son-in-law.

But if Sissi said that her mother wanted to live in the same room with them, Luo Cheng would have to agree. But to be honest, today is still the second day that I actually slept with Sissi, and she hasn’t taken over yet. If Sissi’s mother lived in the same room, how could she dare to move around at night?

Xiaoyu’s room currently accommodates four people. In fact, the room is big enough and there is not much clutter. The beds that Xiaoyu and the others slept on were big enough. Before there was no extra bed, Zheng Xue had squeezed in with them. Originally, there was an extra bed for Zheng Xue and her cousin Wang Yue to sleep together. But now Xiaoyu sleeps with Wang Yue, and Shishi sleeps with Zheng Xue.

Shishi said that Zheng Xue smelled good and it felt comfortable to sleep with her. Mainly because when the three of them slept together, Shishi liked to put her hands on Zheng Xue’s uneven places for some reason. Now that she’s used to it, she doesn’t put her hands on them. Sleep was restless. Some are envious of Zheng Xue, who is obviously not fat, but looks very fertile, which is very popular in rural areas.

We ate pheasants at night. When Luo Cheng came back, he put them in the tricycle. Now that spring has begun, it is normal for pheasants to appear. Anyway, Luo Chenglao reasoned that he bought it from someone else. Moreover, my sister-in-law is pregnant and needs to be replenished. My sister and cousin, especially my cousin Wang Yue, are not at all sensual. This is still much better than when we first arrived.

Xiaoyu and Shishi are almost as good as city dwellers. Of course, city dwellers don’t have as good food, but they are not as good as rural folks. When there is a shortage of food, they can’t even borrow it. Compared with later generations, from Luo Cheng’s perspective, today’s urbanites are no match for later generations of rural people.

This pheasant and its feathers can also be sold to the scrap yard. However, pheasant feathers are beautiful, and Shishi has collected many beautiful pheasant feathers, which are hung in the room for decoration. The ordinary hair can be packed together and sent to the scrap station for disposal later, but the long and beautiful ones must be kept for Shishi.

When Sissi’s mother saw the pheasant, she naturally asked Sissi to go to the kitchen with her to make a fire and boil water. Hot water is good for hair removal. After the water is boiled, let Sissi take a knife and cut the penis, and then the bird will not move around.

Fortunately, the water hadn’t been boiled yet. Xiaoyu, the others, and Luo Bing had all come back from get off work, so they didn’t have much time. Now there are a lot of people in the transportation department. Every time he gets off work, Luo Bing only needs to tell everyone to pack their tools, and he can get off work first. The people here get off work later than the workers. Many workers get off work directly when the time comes. At least give instructions to others. Wang Yue went to Luo Bing every time to get off work together.

When Luo Cheng saw Luo Bing coming back, he quickly asked him to take action. Why, if you have chickens to eat, you still ask your sister-in-law to kill them for you. Your sister-in-law is so beautiful, she can get it with one hand and catch another bird with the other, how cruel it is.

When Luo Bing saw the chickens, he was naturally happy. His wife was pregnant. Yesterday she ate fat meat, but today she had chickens to eat. Not only did she nourish her body, but she also nourished her own offspring. And he also has a sense of propriety. When eating vegetables, he eats less for himself and brings more for his wife. With this chicken, you can at least bring a chicken drumstick to your wife, and he can taste the offal himself.
