Chapter 948 Scania in Sweden
At "Xingtai International", Zhao Guoyang took Schultz to visit the two major research institutes of his company.
After reading it, Schultz praised the "deep-sea exploration ship" and "transport heavy truck" of "Xingtai International", and at that time he stated that he would represent these two products.
Zhao Guoyang still quite agrees with this new partner and did not ask him any questions. He mentioned the matter of raising agency fees and roughly gave it up.
After receiving Zhao Guoyang's verbal guarantee, Schultz still did not dare to neglect and insisted on trying to force Zhao Guoyang to sign the draft contract.
Zhao Guoyang was so hard that he had no choice but to respond.
After signing the contract, Schultz finally felt relieved.
Seeing that it was still early, he suggested: "Mr. Zhao, you said before that there were three companies under your command. Then I looked at 'sms company' and 'xingtai International', and there was still one company that didn't run away."
"If it's convenient, can you take me to the 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' to take a look?"
Zhao Guoyang actually wanted Schultz's proposal.
Through some previous conversations, he had learned that among the products represented by Mr. Schultz, there are clothing and luxury goods.
"Rongguang Co., Ltd." has always focused on North America and Southeast Asian markets, and is lacking strong support in the Nordic region.
Now Schultz takes the initiative to come to him, which is naturally exactly what Zhao Guoyang wants.
Zhao Guoyang touched his chin and nodded reservedly, "Well, since Mr. Schultz is interested, of course I must try my best to meet your requirements..."
"In this way, I will call the 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' and ask them to prepare lunch first. After we go there, we will have a meal first, and I will accompany Mr. Schultz to visit!"
After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Schultz naturally agreed.
After saying a few words to him, Zhao Guoyang pretended to call Bai Rou and explained a few precautions.
Speaking of which, Bai Rou has seen a lot of foreign businessmen in the past two years, and she will not make any mistakes in such foreign-related treatments.
What Zhao Guoyang explained to her now was more about the arrangement of the meal at noon.
After all, Mr. Schultz comes from Nordic Europe, and his taste is still different from that of other people in other regions.
People in Nordic regions are very sweet and salty, and many foods like to eat them raw, which is very different from foreign businessmen in other parts of Europe.
The phone was answered quickly. After hearing Zhao Guoyang's advice, Bai Rou responded with a smile: "Finish, don't worry, my Mr. Zhao, I will definitely arrange these things for you. You, just bring the VIP here!"
Zhao Guoyang is still very relieved about Bai Rou's ability to do business.
He said "hmm" and said a few more words to Bai Rou before hanging up the phone.
After putting down the phone, the car over there was ready.
Seeing Mu Yiyi gesture "ok" to her, Zhao Guoyang smiled and invited Schultz, "Mr. Schultz, the car is ready, let's go here?"
"Okay, okay, please trouble Chairman Zhao!" Schultz said happily with his face.
The chairman of his own took foreign businessmen to do business, so Mu Yiyi, the assistant to the president, naturally had to follow him.
When Zhao Guoyang saw his fiancée Malier go over and open the door in the back seat of the car, he felt amused.
If you want to talk about Mu Yiyi, the assistant to the president, your business is becoming more and more proficient.
From the perspective of a bystander, Zhao Guoyang felt that it was no big problem for her to be the assistant to the chairman now.
Of course, Mu Yiyi's ability is definitely more than that.
After all, she studied business administration abroad, and was also the "mba" of Coventry Business School, and belonged to the top talent of this era.
If this is placed in any financial company, Mu Yiyi is fully capable of holding a position of regional manager or above.
After spending three or five years together, I am afraid that the head of the district will be no problem.
Now she has condescended to come to "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company" to serve as the position of presidential assistant, which is actually a bit of a waste of talent.
Mu Yiyi didn't know what her fiancé was muttering in her heart.
After opening the car door, she politely invited Schultz to go in and sit, and then Zhao Guoyang was the one who came.
It was not until the two heavyweights got in the car that Mu Yiyi closed the door and got into the passenger seat by herself.
Seeing her meticulously fastening her seat belt, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but nodded, showing an expression of appreciation.
After getting on the bus, Zhao Guoyang naturally had to chat with Schultz about something, and he couldn't sit there fuckingly.
So Zhao Guoyang thought about it, then found a topic and started talking: "Mr. Schultz, I have heard that your trucks and bus manufacturers in Sweden are very strong. I wonder if you have an agent for this company's products?"
Zhao Guoyang's words were half about finding topics, but they also meant to ask Mr. Schultz.
Speaking of which, Scania is really a very famous brand in Sweden.
As one of the world's well-known truck and bus manufacturers, Scania was founded in Malmö, southern Sweden in 1891. By 1996, it had a history of more than 100 years.
Nowadays, Scania's products have been sold to more than 100 countries and regions around the world, and have a great influence in the global industrial field and product manufacturing industry.
In Europe, especially on mountain roads in Nordic, you can often see many trucks and trucks marked with the "scania" logo walking. This is the English name of the Scania brand.
In the same competition in the heavy truck field, Zhao Guoyang certainly hopes to learn more about the Scania brand.
After hearing Zhao Guoyang's question, Schultz laughed and said, "Chairman Zhao is so well-known. You even know our Scania brand, Sweden!"
Schultz's words were naturally polite words.
Speaking of which, as the boss of a heavy truck manufacturing enterprise, if Zhao Guoyang has never even heard of this brand, that would be a joke.
Therefore, after Schultz said this, Zhao Guoyang sneered slightly: "Mr. Schultz is so serious!"
"Speaking of this, I have always admired your country's 'Scania' brand. The high quality and durability of its products are definitely the best in the industry!"
Zhao Guoyang's sincere statement made Schultz unable to help but feel good about him.
He nodded gently and said, "Chairman Zhao is right! Although our Swedish 'Scania' brand is not as famous as 'Caterpillar' and 'jcb' in the international market, the quality of the products is not bad at all!"
"Of course, as our domestic brand, I, a small businessman, must support me! So, I have agency rights for this 'Scania' brand..."
"And, not only its trucks, buses, and some other products including engines, I have also obtained the agency rights of 'Scania'!"
After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang's eyes lit up.
To talk about his understanding of "Scania", it is definitely something Schultz could not imagine.
At the earliest times, the brand "Scania" actually started with train cars.
Later, after the competition in train cars became increasingly fierce, Scania set its sights on other products.
In the past 100 years of development, "Scania" has produced many products such as trains, horse-drawn carriages, engineering vehicles.
But the products that are truly influential in the world are their heavy trucks, buses and engines.
In particular, Scania developed a V8 engine in the 1970s, and it stands out among similar products with its powerful turbocharged 14-liter 360 horsepower, making it firmly stand up in the field of long-distance transportation and becomes the only company that has intensive sales and maintenance networks throughout Europe.
After entering the 1990s, although Scania's research on engines was gradually caught up by other competitors in the same industry, its advantages still exist.
The V10 engine of "Scania" almost outperforms the same-displacement product of "Caterpillar".
On the "Xingtai International", although the first heavy truck was successfully produced, it did not achieve self-sufficiency in the engine, and it was still from foreign manufacturers.
Of course, this purchasing product is even worse than the "Scania" v10 engine.
Now Zhao Guoyang suddenly heard that Schultz had the agency power of the "Scania" engine, and his mind suddenly became active.
If Mr. Schultz can establish a relatively friendly relationship with "Scania", it will undoubtedly save you a lot of trouble in the introduction of heavy truck engines.
With such a plan, Zhao Guoyang hurriedly said: "Mr. Schultz, I wonder what are the 'Scania' engine products you are acting in? Is it a full series, or is it just one or two of them?"
After Zhao Guoyang asked these words, Schultz immediately understood what he meant.
The agent blew up and said with a smile: "Chairman Zhao, you asked me this question because you want to have a communication with 'Scania Company' in terms of engine technology?"
Zhao Guoyang did not hide it from him, so he touched his nose and nodded, "That's right, the heavy trucks that our 'Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company' have always produced are all purchased engines."
"Although the engine we purchased is also an internationally renowned brand, the quality is still improved. Now I heard that Mr. Schultz, you have a very in-depth contact with "Scania Company". I would like to ask you to ask for help inquire about this. I wonder if it's a problem?"
