MTL - King of Industry-Chapter 982 Scania in Sweden

  Chapter 982 Scania in Sweden

  In "Xingtai International", Zhao Guoyang took Schultz to visit the two major research institutes of his company.

  After reading it, Schultz was full of praise for the "Deep Sea Exploration Vessel" and "Transportation Heavy Truck" of "Xingtai International", and expressed his intention to represent these two products at that time.

  Zhao Guoyang was quite appreciative of this new partner, and didn't give him any problems. He mentioned the agency fee a little bit, and it was probably settled.

   Having received Zhao Guoyang's verbal guarantee, Schultz still didn't dare to neglect, and insisted on torturing Zhao Guoyang to sign the draft contract.

  Zhao Guoyang was so tortured by him that he had no choice but to agree.

   After initialing the contract, Schultz finally felt relieved.

   Seeing that it was still early, he suggested: "Mr. Zhao, you said before that you have three companies under your command. I just looked at 'SMS Company' and 'Xingtai International', and there is still one company that has not left."

   "If it's convenient, can you take me to the 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' to have a look?"

   For Schultz's proposal, Zhao Guoyang actually wished for it.

  Through some previous conversations, he has already learned that among the products represented by Mr. Schultz, there are clothing and luxury goods.

   As for "Rongguang Co., Ltd.", it has been focusing on the North American and Southeast Asian markets, and it lacks strong support in the Nordic region.

   Now that Schultz took the initiative to deliver it to his door, he naturally fell into Zhao Guoyang's arms.

  At that moment, Zhao Guoyang touched his chin, nodded reservedly and said: "Well, since Mr. Schultz is interested, of course I will try my best to meet your request..."

   "Well, I'll call 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' and ask them to prepare lunch first. After we go over, have a meal first, and I will accompany Mr. Schultz to visit!"

  After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Schultz naturally agreed to everything.

   After talking to him for a few words, Zhao Guoyang pretended to call Bai Rou and explained a few precautions.

  Speaking of which, Bai Rou has met a lot of foreign businessmen in the past two years, and she can't make any mistakes in this kind of foreign-related reception.

   What Zhao Guoyang explained to her at this moment was more about the arrangements for the lunch meal.

   After all, Mr. Schultz is from Northern Europe, and his taste is still different from people from other regions.

  People in the Nordic region are very sweet and salty, and they like to eat many foods raw, which is quite different from foreign businessmen in other parts of Europe.

The call was connected quickly, and after listening to Zhao Guoyang's instructions, Bai Rou responded with a smile: "Sure, don't worry, my Mr. Zhao, I will definitely arrange these things for you properly. You, Just bring the distinguished guests here!"

   Zhao Guoyang is still very relieved of Bai Rou's ability to handle affairs.

  He said "hmm" and said a few words to Bai Rou before hanging up the phone.

  After putting down the phone, the car over there is ready.

   Seeing Mu Yiyi gesturing an "OK" gesture to himself, Zhao Guoyang smiled and invited Schultz: "Mr. Schultz, the car is ready, shall we go?"

   "Okay, okay, please trouble Chairman Zhao!" Schultz said happily.

  The chairman of the company brought foreign businessmen to work, and Mu Yiyi, the assistant to the president, naturally had to follow him.

  Seeing his fiancée Ma Lier pass by and open the door of the back seat of the car, Zhao Guoyang felt amused.

   As for Mu Yiyi, the assistant to the president, she is becoming more and more proficient in her business.

  From the perspective of a bystander, Zhao Guoyang thinks that it is not a 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 she is also an "MBA" from Coventry Business School. She belongs to the top-level talents of this era.

  If this were put into any financial company, Mu Yiyi would be fully capable of holding a position above the regional manager.

   After three to five years of hanging around, I am afraid that the general manager of the region will not be a problem.

  Now she condescends to come to "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company" to serve as the assistant to the president. In fact, she is a bit overqualified.

   Mu Yiyi didn't know what her fiancé was thinking.

  After opening the car door, she politely invited Schultz to go in and sit down, followed by Zhao Guoyang.

   It was not until the two heavyweights got into the car that Mu Yiyi closed the door and got into the passenger seat.

  Seeing her meticulously fasten her seat belt, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but nodded, showing an expression of appreciation.

  After getting into the car, Zhao Guoyang naturally wanted to chat with Schultz a little bit, and the two of them couldn't sit dryly.

So Zhao Guoyang thought for a while, then found a topic and said: "Mr. Schulz, I have heard that Scania, the truck and bus manufacturer in Sweden, is very strong. I don't know the company's status. product, do you have an agent here?"

   Zhao Guoyang's remarks were half to find a topic, but they also meant to ask this Mr. Schultz.

  Speaking of which, this Scania is really a very famous brand in Sweden.

  As one of the world-renowned truck and bus manufacturers, Scania was established in Malmö, southern Sweden in 1891. By 1996, it had a history of more than 100 years.

   Nowadays, Scania products have been sold to more than 100 countries and regions in the world, and have great influence in the global industrial field and product manufacturing circle.

  In Europe, especially on the mountain roads in Northern Europe, you can often see many trucks and trucks marked with the "Scania" logo, which is the English name of the Scania brand.

  Competing in the field of heavy trucks, Zhao Guoyang certainly hopes to learn more about the Scania brand.

  After hearing Zhao Guoyang's question, Schulz laughed and said: "Chairman Zhao is really knowledgeable, you even know about our Swedish brand 'Scania'!"

   Schultz's words are naturally polite.

  Speaking of which, as the boss of a heavy truck manufacturer, Zhao Guoyang would be a joke if he had never even heard of this brand.

  So after Schultz finished speaking, Zhao Guoyang said slightly: "Mr. Schultz is serious!"

   "Speaking of which, I have always admired the 'Scania' brand in your country. The high quality and durability of its products are definitely second to none in the industry!"

  Zhao Guoyang's sincere narration made Schultz couldn't help feeling a little fond of him.

He nodded slightly and said, "Chairman Zhao is right! Our Swedish 'Scania' brand is not as famous internationally as 'Caterpillar', 'JCB' and other heavy trucks and construction machinery. Giant, but the quality of the product is not bad at all!"

   "Of course, as our domestic brand, I, a small businessman, must support it! So, I have the agency right for the 'Scania' brand..."

   "Moreover, not only its trucks and buses, but also other products including engines, I have also obtained the agency right of 'Scania'!"

  After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang's eyes lit up.

   To talk about his understanding of "Scania", it is absolutely beyond Schultz's imagination.

   At the earliest time, the brand "Scania" actually started as a train carriage.

   Later, after the competition for train carriages became increasingly fierce, "Scania" then set its sights on other products.

   During the development of a hundred years, "Scania" has produced many products such as trains, horse-drawn carriages, and engineering vehicles.

  But the truly influential products in the world are its heavy trucks, buses and engines.

In particular, "Scania" developed a V8 engine in the 1970s. With the powerful power of turbocharged 14 liters and 360 horsepower, it was outstanding among similar products, making it a firm stand in the field of long-distance transportation. Heel, becoming the only company with a dense sales and maintenance network throughout Europe.

   After entering the 1990s, although Scania's engine research was gradually caught up by other competitors in the same industry, its advantages still existed.

  The V10 engine of "Scania", the capability and stability of horsepower output, almost exploded the products of the same displacement of "Caterpillar".

   For "Xingtai International", although the first heavy-duty truck was quite successful, it did not achieve self-sufficiency in the engine, and it was purchased from a foreign manufacturer.

  Of course, this purchased product is even worse than the "Scania" V10 engine.

   Now that Zhao Guoyang suddenly heard that Schultz had the agency right for the "Scania" engine, his mind suddenly became alive.

   If Mr. Schultz can establish a friendly relationship with "Scania", it will undoubtedly save him a lot of trouble in the introduction of heavy truck engines.

With such a plan in mind, Zhao Guoyang hurriedly said: "Mr. Schultz, I don't know what are the 'Scania' engine products you represent? Is it a full range of products, or only one of them? How about one or two?"

  After Zhao Guoyang asked this, Schultz immediately understood what he meant.

  The agent laughed and said with a smile: "Chairman Zhao, you are asking me this question because you want to communicate with Scania in terms of engine technology?"

  Zhao Guoyang did not lie to him, he touched his nose and nodded: "That's right, the heavy trucks produced by our 'Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company' all the time are all outsourced engines."

"Although the engines we purchased are also well-known international brands, there is still room for improvement in quality. Now that I heard that Mr. Schultz has a deep relationship with Scania, I would like to invite you Help me to consult about this matter, I don’t know if it’s troublesome or not?”

   "Ah! No trouble, no trouble! It's a trivial matter, leave it to me!" Schultz laughed and waved his hands when he heard this.
