That night, Qin Tao took Cong Ju and checked into a hotel in a nearby town.

"Mr. Qin, is there something weird about this gantry crane?" Cong Ju asked. Although she was shocked by the huge gantry crane, she was still clear-minded. Since Qin Tao didn't make a decision immediately, there must be something wrong.

.

Qin Tao smiled and said: "The problem is big. Just dismantle and assemble it, and it won't be down without eight million."

"What?" Cong Ju opened her eyes wide: "It costs eight million to disassemble and assemble?"

"Yes." Qin Tao said, "This is still an ideal situation."

The disassembly and assembly fee of 8 million and the shipping fee of more than 1 million are close to 10 million. Doesn’t it mean that the other party’s gantry crane was given away for free?

Cong Ju was shocked.

"Mr. Qin, will the other party ask us to increase the price?"

"Price increase? It's been several years and it hasn't been sold. It's so easy to get a big sponsor like us. How could they let us go?" Qin Tao said: "Anyway, boil the frog in warm water and come in little by little."

Cong Ju was thoughtful.

I have never followed Qin Tao out before, but I heard that Qin Tao got a lot of good things from Lao Maozi. I guess he also got them using this method, right?

There was obviously a pit here, but Qin Tao kicked the American down, then stood by the pit and shouted, Come on, come on!

"Anyway, if we pay 10 million, they will definitely agree. After signing the contract, we will pay the deposit first. When their expenses exceed our deposit, they will have to beg us." Qin Tao said: "

Let's give it little by little, wear them out, and at most we'll have to pay for the freight ourselves. For eleven million, it's cheap enough to buy a 1,000-ton German-made gantry crane. However, it will probably be delayed for a long time.

Time, don’t count on the ships we are currently building over there.”

Cong Ju's eyes sparkled.

There is no business without taking risks, but risks can be minimized in various ways! Qin Tao's business methods left a deep impression on Cong Ju. In the future, she will develop from a skilled worker to a comprehensive

If you are a talented person, you should learn more from Qin Tao!

The next day, sure enough, Williams came over with someone.

"Mr. Qin, this is Mr. Jims, the head of our specialized heavy lifting company in Florida. They are willing to take on this business. They will be responsible for the dismantling, hoisting and final installation of the gantry crane. However, the cost is very high.

Expensive." Williams introduced it to Qin Tao.

Jims stretched out his hand, shook Qin Tao's hand, and then said: "Our hoisting company is the most professional. We need to use special hydraulic jacking devices to complete the disassembly. However, these devices all cost money.

So, we need a cost of 3.8 million US dollars."

After speaking, he looked at Qin Tao expectantly.

Of course Qin Tao didn't feel anything anymore.

Needless to say 3.8 million, even if you say 8 million, it has nothing to do with us!

"Of course." Qin Tao nodded: "Mr. Williams, do you have any objection?"

Williams' face turned red: "This price is too expensive, Mr. Qin, I hope you can increase the purchase price."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Williams. Actually, our base price is 8 million. The price you proposed is 10 million, which is already very high. Last night, I called the country. After careful discussion, the country finally decided to increase the price.

However, 10 million is already the highest. If you still want to raise the price, then we can only go to Europe to have a look."

Williams was very helpless.

"In addition to the purchase price of 3.8 million, we also need transportation costs of 1.2 million. In this case, the selling price of the gantry crane will become 5 million, which is too low," Williams said.

.

"Yes, it is indeed not cost-effective for you. In this case, then you can continue to stay and treat it as the most spectacular sight on the horizon." Qin Tao said: "We have already booked our tickets for tonight.

Fly to Europe.”

Williams could feel the sweat on his forehead coming down again. He didn't take the bait at all. It was so easy for this buyer to be willing to buy it, and he could sell it for a certain amount of money!

"Okay, then we can sell it to you at this price."

Qin Tao nodded: "Since everything is arranged by you as a whole, of course we have to sign the contract according to the overall package." Qin Tao continued: "We first pay a 20% deposit in advance, and wait until the crane is dismantled

After that, we pay another 20%, and we pay 20% for shipment. When the cargo ship arrives at our port, we pay another 20%. Finally, we install it and pay the remaining 20%. How about that?"

Qin Tao split the ten million into five parts, each of two million, and paid them slowly.

After hearing Qin Tao's words, Williams shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, you need to completely purchase the gantry crane. That is, the purchase fee of 5 million US dollars must be paid immediately, and then another 3.8 million US dollars will be paid.

We need to pay the disassembly and assembly costs so that we can dismantle it and pay the final transportation cost of US$1.2 million. We can hand over the risk to the insurance company. All we need to do is insure it."

Qin Tao smiled: "Well, then we'll be good friends."

After saying that, Qin Tao turned and left.

Cong Ju followed Qin Tao and left quickly. Williams and Jims were left staring at each other.

what to do?

They don't give in at all, and they do everything according to the other party's requirements?

Can it be done?

The landscape on the horizon is still there, but it is starting to rust in many places.

If it takes another three to five years, no one will want the five million!

When Qin Tao took Cong Ju to appreciate the exotic customs on the streets of the town, Williams and Jims were fighting with the gods.

Jims said to Williams: "We have estimated that one million US dollars will be enough for the dismantling work, and it will be one million dollars for installation. After all, we are using new technology. The first two million dollars will need

Call our company first so that we can do the construction. Anyway, as long as it is demolished, we can get another two million. We can still do this kind of business."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The two have been good friends for many years, so Williams asked Jims to make a fortune. He did not know that this business would make Jims lose everything.

, the two completely turned against each other and never interacted with each other until death.

"God bless, our business will definitely be successful." Williams finally made up his mind.

This specialized heavy-duty lifting company in Florida was actually established just yesterday, just to dismantle the gantry crane here, so as to save Qin Tao from asking the Germans. After being rejected, Qin Tao probably gave up.

Although Jims had previous experience in related industries, this was definitely his first time using a gantry crane of this level. In his eyes, there would be no major problems with his original hydraulic lifting method.

When Qin Tao took Cong Ju to have a Western meal and came back, he happened to meet Williams and Jims who had already made up their minds.

"Mr. Qin, we have decided to do this business according to your requirements," Williams said.

"You must be careful." Qin Tao said: "If a part is lost during disassembly and transportation, it will not be installed, and the final installation fee of two million US dollars will not be paid. You'd better hire

An experienced person should supervise.”

Qin Tao will not leave anyone here to supervise, that will cost money! In this case, it is best to leave it completely to them. If you want to get the balance, you have to make sure that the parts are foolproof.

"Also, if you want to hire an insurance company, that's your business. In short, we will pay the money and then go back and wait. By the way, in terms of time, let's confirm how long do you think it will take?

"

"Half a year," Jims said.

"Then, if time is delayed, we have the right to abandon the gantry crane and compensate you for additional compensation." Qin Tao said, "This is also international practice."

"good."

The contract was signed. Looking at the contract in Chinese and English, Cong Ju was extremely shocked. Qin Gong, this is amazing! This contract is completely beneficial to oneself. As long as the other party signs it, Qin Gong will be involved in the future.

Walk on your nose.

Will these Americans cry and come to Mingzhou Shipyard for comfort in the future?

"I'll ask them to make the payment immediately." Qin Tao is also a person who does what he says. Since the contract has been signed, of course he has to make the payment immediately.

With that said, Qin Tao picked up the hotel phone.

Williams and Jims both looked at Qin Tao's conspicuous big brother on the table in surprise.

Qin Tao smiled: "This call is cheaper."

After making the call, Qin Tao called Jims over again: "Now, let's study the specific cutting. This is very important. Each cut component is between 150 tons and 400 tons, and

, it will not affect the subsequent installation. The cutting position is very important. Now, I have a plan."

Qin Tao is a shipbuilder and is of course very familiar with gantry cranes. This kind of gantry crane weighs 5,500 tons. It must be cut and disassembled before it can be transported. If it is cut, it is very particular. If it is cut wrong, it will be assembled.

, the lifting capacity will also be reduced.

This thing will eventually be reborn in Mingzhou Shipyard, and Qin Tao doesn't want to lose anything.

It was already April, and when Qin Tao took Cong Ju back to the Mingzhou Shipyard, it was already getting hot here.

There were cicadas shouting outside the window, drizzle was falling, and the meeting room was bustling.

"Mr. Qin, with this gantry crane, our shipyard can become as large a shipyard as Huating Shipyard, right?" Zhao Changshui said with a smile.

Qin Tao can make money, and he can also spend money. The order for the LNG ship earned the shipyard 60 million U.S. dollars in revenue. However, Qin Tao spent 10 million U.S. dollars before the ship was built.

At this time, no one would accuse Qin Tao of spending money recklessly, not even Qin Baoshan said anything. Of course he knew what the arrival of such a large gantry crane meant.

"It will take about one or two years for the gantry crane to arrive, so we can't count on shipbuilding now." Qin Tao said: "We need to use the docking method between the floating dock and the No. 2 dock to complete the current orders on hand.

At the same time, we are preparing to build a large 400,000-ton shipyard and a 100,000-ton slipway."
