Vol 2 Chapter 524: Export ban

Reverse osmosis membranes, which are used as filtering devices for municipal water supply, are too luxurious and completely unnecessary. But if it is used in the military field, it makes sense. Warships patrol the ocean, and fresh water supply is very troublesome. Traditional seawater purification technology is costly and inefficient. If you replace this type of superfiltration membrane produced by Daqin Group, things will become very simple. The Army also encounters the problem of drinking water filtration when performing tasks in the field. Superfiltration membranes can also show their skills.
After seeing reports about superfiltration membranes in the media, the US personnel were immediately attracted. They hoped to use this superfiltration membrane to improve water purification equipment in the military. Fettes and Setzler are the people who came to discuss the purchase of superfiltration membranes with Qin Hai. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by the military's identity, the two pretended to be members of the water supply company. Who expected that because of insufficient preparation for their homework, one mouth would be exposed.
Now that he has seen through the identity of Setzler, Qin Hai naturally wants to break through this layer of relationship. It is natural that the other party hides and shrinks, and this kind of scruples can become a bargaining condition for Qin Hai.
"Mr. Setzler, when did you retire? With your position in the military, shouldn't you be convicted in a small department like the municipal water company?" Qin Hai spoke with a smile.
"Uh ..." Setzler froze for a moment. He rubbed his eyes, looked at Qin Hai for a long time, and finally recognized that the other person was a person who had dealt with himself. No wonder, in the eyes of Americans, the Chinese look similar, just as Qin Hai thinks that Americans look similar.
"I'm sorry. I didn't recognize you just now. I think, aren't you from Qilin, what is your relationship with Daqin Group?" Setsler asked. The Qilin company he said is a 70x plug-in company, and the body armor trade with the United States is done under the name of Qilin Company.
Qin Hai laughed: "Qilin is just one of our partners. My company is China Daqin Industrial Group, which specializes in the materials industry. The superfiltration membrane you are interested in is our company's product. We are currently also No other company is authorized to represent this product. "
"That's the way it is." Setzler responded, then didn't know how to go down. His military identity was recognized by the other party, and then he lied about the lies of the New York Municipal Water Supply Company.
Qin Hai still smiled slightly. Pointing to Fitters, he asked, "If I am not mistaken, is Mr. Fitters also representing the United States? Mr. Setzler is from the Army Equipment Department, and Mr. Fitters is from the Naval Equipment Department. ? "
"I have to admit, the Chinese are really too smart." Fitters shrugged. Said with a mockery. Based on his own imagination, Qin Hai guessed it blindly, but he really guessed.
"So, the two of you are going to purchase a super-filtration membrane for military use?" Qin Hai put a smile on his face and asked, lowering his face.
Fetts and Setzler glanced at each other, knowing that they could not hide each other, so nodded at the same time, and acknowledged.
Qin Hai spread his hands. "If so, then I'm afraid we have nothing to talk about. You should know that this super reverse osmosis membrane is restricted by the Chinese government's export ban and cannot be sold to foreign countries without China's permission Military agencies. "
Hearing Qin Hai's words, Yu Lihong's eyes were swollen and rounded. He was the developer of the superfiltration membrane. He had been directing production at Jintang Chemical Materials Company for a while. Why has he never heard of this so-called export ban? Qin Hai said this. It is tantamount to closing the door of negotiation with the other party. This is not intended to do this business. To know. With a 20,000 square meter super reverse osmosis membrane, which has a multi-million-dollar business, what awkwardness Qin Hai committed, it was pushed away.
I thought so, Yu Lihong dare not come out to correct Qin Hai's statement. He could only wink at Qin Hai secretly, and wanted to remind Qin Hai to think about it seriously. Who would have thought that Qin Hai didn't look in his direction at all, but faced the two Americans squarely, and couldn't see a little leeway in his face.
"The Chinese government's export ban?" Fetts was also frustrated by Qin Hai's words. He had never had any business dealings with the Chinese, and he had not studied whether China has such export restrictions. It seems that such a ban does exist. If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that he and Setzler ran away in vain? The most important thing is that the Navy is still waiting to introduce such a superfiltration membrane.
Setzler was also a little lost for a while, but he was a person who had dealt with Qin Hai, so he would think more about things. He thought about Qin Hai's words, and found a flaw in it, so he asked tentatively: "Mr. Qin, you are saying 'without the permission of the military', how can we get such permission?"
Qin Hai laughed secretly. He left such a mouth to let the other party get in. In case the other party was too stupid and could not hear anything for a while, he planned to dial the other party again. It now seems that the other party is not so pedantic, so that he can save himself to explain in a conspicuous way.
"The military's permission ... this matter is more troublesome." Qin Hai frowned like a mountain. "We are purely private enterprises and never deal with the military. You should know that Western countries, including you The United States has always had a discriminatory policy against private companies that do business with China. As a company facing the international market, we are really unwilling to affect the business of the international market because we have links with the military. "
"No, no, Mr. Qin, I think you have some misunderstandings about the policies of the US government." Setzler hurriedly said, "The US government has indeed sanctioned some companies related to the military of ... specific countries, but not All such companies are subject to sanctions. In particular, if these companies can be recognized by the United States, then the US government will be tolerant of them regardless of whether they have participated in the production of some sensitive projects. "
Having said that, he passed a look to Qin Hai, meaning "you understand."
"That is to say, if we can provide a superfiltration membrane to the United States, the United States will put our group on the approved list, so that we will not be sanctioned by the US government, is that so?" Asked.
"That's right, I can guarantee it." Fetts also heard the mystery, and quickly said.
"We will provide a certificate to our overseas equipment suppliers, and with this certificate, you will not be affected by various sanctions." Setzler said.
"Is that so?" Qin Haizhuang said with a look of sudden realization, "I knew this already, so we should start cooperation with the United States as soon as possible."
Fitters said: "It's not too late now, this time our purchase is a military purchase."
"It's still a bit late." Qin Haidao, "Without the approval of the Chinese side, we can't agree to your purchase requirements. Otherwise, you can wait for a while, after I return to China, find a relationship and contact the military Listen to them, and then promise you, how do you feel? "
"This ..." Fitters was speechless.
Setzler said with a smile: "Mr. Qin, you just said that your group has a cooperative relationship with Qilin, and Qilin has close ties with China. Can you contact through Qilin? What about military personnel, trying to get their permission? "
In Setzler's view, Qin Hai's push and push like this is just a pretentious act. Since he remembered that Qin Hai was the one who had sold bulletproof vests to the United States, he knew that Daqin Group and China would never be unrelated. The manager of Qilin Company, Liang, is obviously a member of the military. Qin Hai and Manager Liang went to the United States to sell bulletproof vests, and they were still in the middle of negotiations. How could there be no military background?
Even the so-called export ban, Setzler suspected that it was coined by Qin Hai himself. The purpose was naturally to use this as a reason to talk to them about the conditions. He didn't care to exchange some benefits with Qin Hai, because something like a superfiltration membrane was too important for the military, and it was not necessary to make some concessions for this.
"Qilin company?" Qin Hai seemed to have just remembered it. He patted his head and smiled apologetically: "If it wasn't for Mr. Setzler's reminder, I really forgot this thing. So Let ’s find out if they have a phone call and ask them to help them contact the military ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Two people please stay in France for two more days, and I will contact you after I have asked for it. What do you think? "
"Well, we will wait for your news." Setzler said.
When sending the two Americans back to the room, Yu Lihong asked Qin Hai in a puzzled way: "General Manager Qin, what export ban did you just say, why haven't I heard of it? Is it because you I heard that they are from the United States, so don't want to do this business with them? "
"Who said I didn't want to do this business?" Qin Hai laughed. "The United States and the Fang are people who are stupid and rich in money. Doing business with them is the most interesting thing. Such a business is more beneficial."
"Then what else do you want to ask, who do we need to ask for?" Yu Lihong asked.
Qin Haidao: "Of course, I have to ask for instructions. If you encounter such an opportunity, it would be a pity if you didn't hit it hard. Right, old man, what do you want from the US military, say it, I take this as a condition and talk to them. "(Want to know more exciting news of" Materials Empire "?
