Chapter 422: Even with the blueprints, we can’t make it!
"Mr. Varet, neither Xu Cang nor anyone else wants to be the so-called last choice." Qin Xin said seriously: "Choose one of the two, or you can choose nothing, but you must make a decision today. However, according to your current situation, it seems that you can't wait until the Japanese MRJ aircraft project is really clear. This is just a simple choice, choose to trust us or trust Mitsubishi Heavy Industries."
Qin Xin's eyes were stern. "Also, Mr. Valette, you are not in a position or value to be sold at a high price right now. I hope you can understand this clearly."
Ryan Valette's little trick is obvious, which is to use the existence of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries to raise the price.
However, Qin Xin obviously didn't buy it. How could Bombardier raise the price of anything with her?
Ryan Valette's eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he was unsure. Qin Xin was not Xu Cang himself, but the two had a close relationship, and Qin Xin could make decisions on behalf of Xu Cang. The next choice would greatly affect Bombardier's future.
Should I believe Xu Cang or Mitsubishi Heavy Industries?
Qin Xin doesn't look very old, but there is no special emotion on her face.
Either Qin Xin is a naturally scheming person, or she is confident that she can completely control Bombardier, or she doesn't care about this matter. No matter what choice she makes, she can get the result she wants.
“Qin…”
Just as Ryan Valette was about to speak, Qin Xin's cell phone suddenly rang. Qin Xin ignored Ryan Valette and took out her cell phone to check. It was the number of her former secretary Zhao Ning.
This surprised Qin Xin a little. Since Zhao Ning transferred to the HR department as a junior leader, he seldom contacted her privately. Besides, she should know that he was in the United States now and shouldn't disturb her unless it was something important.
"Excuse me, I need to answer the phone." Qin Xin ignored Ryan Valette, answered the phone, and walked aside: "Zhao Ning, what's wrong?"
"Boss Qin, I just heard someone below talking about how Xia Shuyue asked the Employee Service Center for a salary certificate for the past six months."
"Xia Shuyue?" Qin Xin was startled: "Why does she need a salary certificate?"
"That's not all." Zhao Ning said anxiously, "At that time, in addition to asking for a salary certificate, she also had her ID card copied at the Employee Service Center. At that time, the staff at the Employee Service Center saw Xia Shuyue holding an invitation letter in English... Mr. Qin, isn't she going to apply for a visa?"
Qin Xin's eyelids jumped: "Why do you think so?"
"We also received Xia Shuyue's resignation notice from the cabin department." Zhao Ning asked, "Is she leaving?"
Zhao Ning is a veteran of Spring Airlines and vaguely knows the relationship between Xu Cang and Xia Shuyue. In any case, it is not a normal relationship between boss and employee.
Although it was a bit strange to tell Qin Xin about this, Zhao Ning didn't have Xu Cang's private number, and she had a better relationship with Qin Xin. Otherwise, she might not dare to tell Xu Cang about this.
Although Xu Cang is about the same age as her, he has a very high prestige, and Zhao Ning is a little afraid of Xu Cang.
"She's going to resign?" Qin Xin's heart skipped a beat. This matter was indeed very strange.
Applying for a visa is nothing special, but submitting a resignation is very bad, as it means that Xia Shuyue may have to live abroad for a long time.
But why did Xia Shuyue suddenly want to live abroad for a long time?
In fact, Xia Shuyue's reaction was very strange after Xu Cang was attacked in Tokyo.
Qin Xin knew that Xia Shuyue liked Xu Cang, and in front of her, Xia Shuyue did not avoid suspicion. However, it was strange that Xia Shuyue returned to China the day before she came. At that time, although Xu Cang was out of danger, he was still in poor health. It was reasonable that Xia Shuyue could not leave Xu Cang.
Qin Xin frowned, hesitating whether to tell Xu Cang about this.
However, she temporarily gave up the idea and continued to say to Zhao Ning: "Don't be busy with company matters these two days. Go and see what Xia Shuyue is doing. Of course, it's best not to let her know that you are checking on her."
"That's no problem. She should have some friends in the company. If she really wants to live abroad for a long time, those friends might know something. I'll go and find out."
"If she wants to resign, just follow the normal process, but it will take a little longer. If it is confirmed, you must notify me immediately, no matter when it is." Qin Xin reminded.
Zhao Ning knew that this matter was related to Xu Cang, so he didn't dare to neglect it: "Boss Qin, I'll go check it out right away. Oh, and there's one more thing. The promotional activity for my brother's chat software that Boss Xu Cang asked me to do was quite effective. According to Boss Xu Cang's opinion, do you think we should arrange a larger-scale promotion?"
"The effect is very good?" Qin Xin had almost forgotten about that incident.
She knew nothing about software, and she didn't think it could be used in any special way. However, Xu Cang seemed to take it seriously, and she was just following Xu Cang's wishes to arrange the promotion of "Fei TALK".
To be honest, that initial aircraft promotion caused a lot of trouble, cost a lot of money, and even alarmed the General Administration.
"Yes, the number of installers and online users has increased more than expected." Zhao Ning whispered, "Anyway, that's what they said, so it should mean that the effect is good, right?"
Qin Xin didn't hesitate: "Since the effect is good, let's arrange a larger-scale ground promotion next time. Did Xu Cang specifically propose any ground promotion plan?"
"That's not the case. President Xu Cang said that it's fine to come normally."
"Okay, you guys can come up with the specific plan yourself, summarize the budget and send it to me, I'll take a look and then you guys can approve it." Qin Xin added, "Xu Cang seems to be very concerned about this matter, and it's also related to your brother, so you'll be responsible for the specific ground promotion matters."
"Boss Qin, I'm in HR, and my major is not suitable for this field."
"What's wrong with it?" Qin Xin said, "When you transferred to HR, your major was different. Besides, you are not responsible for professional matters. You are supposed to supervise and manage people, not how to promote it."
Is it like the boss of an airline company must be able to fly a plane?
Let professionals take care of professional matters, and leaders should manage professionals.
Zhao Ning was also very aggressive. He hesitated for a moment before taking over the burden.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xin looked worried.
Xu Cang didn't really care about many things, and those so-called business empires were not that important in Xu Cang's heart, but she knew that Xia Shuyue was very important .
Although she was a little uncomfortable with Xia Shuyue's affairs, she still had to figure it out to avoid making Xu Cang sad in the future.
After Qin Xin came back from the phone call, she looked as if she was in a trance.
Seeing Qin Xin's expression, Ryan Valette couldn't help but call out, "Miss Qin, if possible, can we go somewhere else to discuss this in detail? It's a little... difficult for me to make a decision now."
Ryan Valette was only the president of Bombardier C Series, not the president of Bombardier Group. He had a lot of say, but it was not his alone. Moreover, this matter was of great importance, and even Ryan Valette felt a lot of pressure.
But Qin Xin wanted him to make a decision on the spot, which was really asking too much.
Qin Xin, like Xu Cang, likes to exert extreme pressure and not give the opponent any chance to dodge or maneuver, which is very uncomfortable.
Business is the art of negotiation, but Qin Xin and Xu Cang were too lazy to talk and did not play by the rules at all.
"It's not easy to do?" Qin Xin narrowed his eyes, and suddenly a surge of anger rose up: "Then don't do it! Wait for your C series company to go bankrupt, and then we will see if Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is what you expected."
Qin Xin was already very upset because of Xia Shuyue's matter.
Even though she cared about Xia Shuyue's affairs because of Xu Cang, it didn't mean that she didn't think it was outrageous. But she had to do it, which made her very angry.
Ryan Valette from Bombardier was really ungrateful, and Qin Xin had lost interest in continuing the conversation with him.
After saying that, Qin Xin left Ryan Valette and walked towards the small building where they were resting.
Ryan Valette was dumbfounded. Why did he get so angry after receiving a phone call?
The key point is that he is very angry and makes decisions very decisively, leaving no room for negotiation.
In the seven steps that Qin Xin took toward the small building, Ryan Valette was torn between an inner struggle and a desire. He knew that as long as Qin Xin went in, the Bombardier C Series would only have the option of bankruptcy and auction.
Qin Xin's footsteps were light, but each step hit Ryan Valet's heart hard, making Ryan Valet sweat profusely in anxiety.
Just as Qin Xin's right hand touched the glass door handle of the small building's main door, Ryan Valette's voice came from behind: "Miss Qin, please stay!"
However, Qin ignored Ryan Valette and immediately opened the glass door, with half of his body already leaning into the house.
At this moment, Ryan Valette's voice rose again: "I choose the second one. I will convince the board of directors to divest the rail transit business as well."
At this time, Qin Xin stopped.
She turned around slowly and said, "Mr. Valette, I'm glad you've changed your mind. But I've changed my mind now. I don't want rail transit. I want your business jet. You only have the first option."
Ryan Varet was stunned, and then became angry: "How can you go back on your word?"
"Because I suddenly remembered something." Qin Xin flicked her nails. "As long as you agree, Boeing will withdraw its dumping complaint about the CS300 aircraft. How about that? In addition, as long as you agree, AVIC will terminate its cooperation with Embraer, Embraer will no longer get cheap fuselage parts, and the business jet market in East Asia will be reopened to you. How about that?"
A series of conditions hit Ryan Valette like a heavy punch to the heart.
The business jet division is indeed Bombardier's most profitable business, but Embraer has recently started a price war, which has made Bombardier very uncomfortable. In addition, Bombardier has suffered heavy losses in business jet orders in East Asia, especially in China.
Currently, business jet orders from China only account for one-fifth of Bombardier's total orders. However, half of the growth in Bombardier's business jet orders comes from China.
In other words, China is a market with extremely huge potential.
Xu Cang is such a capable person that he alone can influence the entire Chinese market's preference for Bombardier business jets.
Qin Xin's meaning was very simple. If he agreed, he would eat the meat and Bombardier would drink the soup. If he disagreed, no one else would get to eat, not even the leftovers.
Ryan Valette naturally understood what Qin Xin meant, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably. This woman looked weak, but she was really ruthless when it came to doing things. She didn't give anyone any room for maneuver and only did things that hurt others and did not benefit herself. But Bombardier just fell for it.
It's really a ghost.
Qin Xin raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at the hesitant Ryan Valette, said nothing, turned around and went in.
However, just after entering the house, Ryan Valette's voice sounded : "Yes, yes, I agree."
…
In a jewelry store in Ginza, Tokyo, Japan, Xu Cang was searching for small items to keep him company. He was about to return to China, so he had to bring some small items to Xia Shuyue. No matter what, Xu Cang was able to survive this time thanks to Xia Shuyue. It was only right for him to bring some small items with him for saving his life.
However, Xu Cang was obviously a completely straight man, and he walked around without closing his eyes. He didn't know whether it was because the jewelry store's items were not good or because of his poor taste.
From a probability perspective, since this jewelry store can be opened in Ginza, the level should be good enough. So, in the final analysis, it is my own problem?
If it were in the future, he wouldn't have to be as entangled as he is now when he had a video call with Xia Shuyue .
Just when Xu Cang didn't know how to choose, his cell phone rang.
He answered the phone casually, and soon the voice of AVIC CEO Lin Ming came from the other end: "Xu Cang, how are you? Is it convenient to talk?"
"Yeah." Xu Cang's eyes were still lingering on the counter: "You go ahead."
"It's about the three-rotor engine." Lin Ming coughed twice and said in a serious tone, "Our people have read the technical information of the three-rotor engine you provided..."
In addition to helping train three engine engineers, Rolls-Royce also gave Xu Cang a complete set of three-rotor technology information.
Xu Cang was not a technician, so he just handed it over to AVIC. Anyway, he was going to cooperate with AVIC to build an engine company based on this technical information, which would be considered a technology investment.
Xu Cang asked casually: "How is it? When can the prototype be built?"
"I can't make it!" Lin Ming's voice was a little low, or rather lost.
Xu Cang suddenly stopped and frowned: "What did you say? Can't make it? Can't make it even with the blueprints?"
"That's right, we can't make it." Lin Ming's voice trembled a little: "Yes, even if we have a complete set of drawings, we can't make it. That... is too complicated."
