Romanian Eagle

Chapter 472: RK company

While Admiral Fereit was carefully handling the issue of the restructuring of the army, Alex and Boris, who had regained their freedom, came to the Krupp Manor once again.

For the previous experience of death, the two were very embarrassed. Suspended and imprisoned, waiting for instructions from the king. Carust's series of actions made them realize how big the mistake he had made. Fortunately, His Majesty was generous and spared them temporarily, otherwise the two would have returned to Romanian prison.

So this time the two were more rules. After they came to the study room where they talked last time, the two took out the certification documents signed by Edel.

Facing the actions of the two, the Krupp and his wife looked at each other, as if saying that it seemed to be a real game this time.

After retrieving the documents, Alex said with a serious expression in his eyes, "I don't know how Krupp has considered the conditions given by our country before?"

Facing Alex this time, Gustav Krupp replied cautiously: "We Krupp have considered it, and the conditions given by your country before are not enough. But considering Romania’s goodwill, So we can give some concessions under existing conditions."

Gustav's words relieved the two new negotiators. This is a signal from Krupp that it is willing to cooperate with Romania. However, the specific conditions need to be discussed, but if they can continue to negotiate, it means that their work is effective, so they quietly listened to Gustav's conditions.

"Our condition is that we will invest in technology and some equipment to occupy half of the new company's shares, while your country will invest in land and capital to occupy the other half. The newly developed weapons will also be owned by this new company. . And if the two armies want to use it, they can buy it from the company. If other companies want to use it, they need the right to use it. The profits will also be distributed by the new company based on shares."

In the end, Gustav said: "In addition, the new company must meet the annual production capacity of 1,000 artillery and its parts."

In fact, Gustav lowered the conditions drastically, in addition to the factors he said before, there were also several other reasons that were not suitable before.

Previously, Krupp chose the Netherlands and Sweden as Krupp's secret research and development sites. Among them, the Netherlands is the most friendly to Krupp. After all, the relationship between the Netherlands and Germany has always been very good, but because the location is too close to Britain and France, it is not suitable as a secret artillery research and development base.

As for Sweden, it is far away from Britain and France, but the relationship between Germany and Sweden is more general. Moreover, the neutral position of Sweden will not help Krupp to conceal much, which makes Gustav somewhat worried. As for the future cooperation between Soviet Russia and Germany, Krupp is completely outside the scope of Krupp's consideration. For the red regime, Gustav was very hostile from the bottom of his heart.

Compared with the Netherlands and Sweden, Romania's conditions are much better. The distance is far (all in the Black Sea), the relationship is good (to be verified), and the most important thing is that Romania can cooperate with the royal family. As the leader of Krupp, Gustav still knows the situation in Romania. The power of the current Romanian royal family, Hohenzollern Sigmaringen, is still relatively clear.

Doing business with the royal family in Romania is the most profitable, and in the secrecy that Gustav values ​​most, Romania has the most advantage, so he is also most satisfied with Romania's choice. But as a qualified businessman, Gustav certainly needs to strive for the maximum profit for himself. So he needs to understand Romania's bottom line as much as possible, and the two men in front of him become his tools.

As for the last words of Gustav, it was set up to prevent Romania from only developing and not producing. This also has his little thoughts. Because Krupp cannot continue to produce artillery at present, and Gustav obviously wants to retain the key workers, he deliberately added one at the end to satisfy that Krupp may return to Germany to continue its large-scale production capacity in the future.

The two people who didn’t know what the Krupp family was thinking about, after hearing the new conditions given by the other party, Alex thought for a while and replied: "Thank you for your fancy to Romania. But for this new condition, I The side still believes that the gap is large. However, in order to show our sincerity, we also intend to modify some of the conditions."

Alex went on to say in a word-for-word tone: "The new condition for our country is that Krupp will buy shares with technology and equipment, and we will invest capital and land to build a new weapons factory. This factory has half of the shares. And we will give up to 20 million lei for research and development funds, and the results must be attributed to this new factory. In addition, the weapons purchased by the German and Romanian military will be exempt from patent fees."

Hearing the new conditions set by Alex, Gustav immediately shook his head and replied: "No, no, this condition is unfair to us. Our company invests too much. We must know that equipment and technology are important to a company. It’s too important to say, especially Krupp has the best artillery technology. Romania only needs to invest land and funds to share this technology, which is too unfair to us, and this is also a painstaking denial of tens of thousands of Krupp workers. ."

After hearing Gustav’s dissatisfaction, Alex continued: “I don’t deny that Krupp has the most advanced technology, but you also need to consider the actual situation. At present, only Romania has the ability to ensure that Krupp can continue. Secretly develop new artillery. You must know that once Germany is rearmed in the future, its profits will be the most lucrative for Krupp. It can be said that it is the best choice for Krupp to be able to help your company through Romania. "

Facing Alex's remarks, Gustav smiled and replied: "It's a pity that you don't become a businessman."

Alex did not respond to Gustav's praise.

"What you are saying is correct. Krupp's technology is likely to fall behind if you put it for a few more years. But our company can cooperate with Romania as well as other countries. You can even develop your own secretly. As long as we can cooperate with Romania, we can also cooperate with other countries. Not in the country, or places where the English and French tentacles cannot reach, such as the Netherlands, Spain, or Sweden, Norway and other countries."

"But it's not the best."

Faced with the counterattack of the young people, Gustav said with a smile: "Yes, this is indeed not the best. But don’t forget two people, I am a businessman and not a politician. As long as the benefits outweigh the risks, I have every reason to go. Do this. Of course, if Romania’s conditions are good, why don’t I cooperate with you?"

Hearing what Gustav said, the two realized that they were negotiating with a businessman. The other party was right. As long as the businessman is profitable, he would certainly not estimate anything else, but he didn't know why, and Alex always felt that something was wrong.

"Okay, let's end the negotiations today. You know our terms, so how about talking again today?"

In the face of Gustav, Alex, who had no clue at the moment, only had to nod his head in agreement, so today's negotiations ended.

On the way back, Alex suddenly braked the car, and Boris almost flashed his waist unprepared.

"What are you doing, Alex."

"Hahahaha, I thought about it."

Faced with the anger of his colleague, Alex laughed at this moment.

"What did you think of?"

Seeing a colleague who seemed to be mad, Boris asked curiously.

Alex grabbed his colleague's shoulder, as if seizing an opportunity.

"I thought about why Gustav said this, he was deceiving us. The pure businessman who went to TM, he was a diplomat and he could not only consider business interests. His method of thinking would habitually add politics."

"So?"

"So we are his only target, because Romania is currently the country with the best secret research and development in Germany. They do not choose us, it is a problem."

Alex, who wanted to understand, was refreshed at this time, feeling like a hunter catching a fox.

Waiting until the next day, when Gustav said again that the conditions in Romania were too low, Alex said with a smile. "Your Excellency, the importance of Krupp to the German military is indisputable, and our country and the military have always had a close relationship. All I hope Krupp can consider for the military, and stop worrying about these details. After all, Krupp relied on the German army to grow and develop."

Alex's words, Boris listened to the clouds, how the good negotiations were related to the German military. Boris didn't understand, it doesn't mean that Gustav didn't hear Alex's intention. He frowned and said, "Who does this mean?"

"What our superiors mean."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Boris was a little confused. Isn't their superior Carust, why didn't I know that the director had said?

"You two, please rest first, let me think about it."

"Ok."

Gustav finished speaking and left with his wife.

After there were only two people left in the study, Boris asked immediately: "What are you talking about."

Alex took a sip of the coffee in front of him and replied: "We are negotiating, and it seems that the talk is almost done right now."

Sure enough, it didn't take long ~lightnovelpub.net~ After the Krupp couple returned to the study, they agreed that Krupp would build a new weapons factory in a joint venture with the Romanian government. Among them, Krupp took up half of the shares with technology and equipment, while Romania’s land and capital accounted for the other half, and Romania also provided 30 million lei for research and development funds. This weapons factory will reach the annual production capacity of 1,000 artillery and its parts (calculated as the introduction of skilled workers), and the results of research and development will also be used for free in Germany and Romania.

This new company is called Romania-Krupp, or RK for short. (Abbreviation for Romania and Krupp)

It's just that after Alex showed Edel the details of the negotiation, he couldn't help laughing.

"It's really a talent. If you change your superiors, you'll be **** off. But in the face of his credit, let him go this time."

It seems that Alex is betting right.
