Chapter 1017: Only Relying on the Golden Finger

This time Lou Hongyi learned about Yamada Co., Ltd. through the Matsushima family. Regarding this situation, Lou Hongyi told Du Fei just now.

This is also a factor that makes Du Fei suspicious.

After handing the matter over to Luo Zhengming, Du Fei simply didn't think much about it. He believed in Luo Zhengming and also believed in the abilities of comrades abroad.

Sure enough, a few days later, Du Fei received a call from Luo Zhengming and asked him for an interview. When Du Fei heard this, his heart tightened.

Although he had a bad premonition, Du Fei felt lucky and hoped that his worries were unfounded. Now it seems that it is not that simple.

Otherwise Luo Zhengming would not ask to meet.

Du Fei drove to Luo Zhengming's office.

"Luo Chu, what's going on?" Du Fei asked as soon as he entered the room.

Luo Zhengming was wearing a dark gray tunic suit, and his hair was cut short to reveal a shiny top of his head. "Manager Du, sit down and talk." Luo Zhengming pointed to the sofa next to him. .??.

Du Fei sat down patiently and listened to Luo Zhengming describe the information fed back from Japan.

After about twenty minutes, Du Fei frowned and said in a deep voice, "So, there is indeed something wrong with Yamada Co., Ltd.!"

Luo Zhengming nodded and said, "According to the information currently available, this machinery factory does have a batch of West German machine tools, but they have already been mortgaged to the bank."

Du Fei thought silently.

Luo Zhengming said that Yamada Akio, the president of Yamada Co., Ltd., owed huge gambling debts. In order to deal with the Yamaguchi group behind the casino, he mortgaged the factory long ago.

Now he wants to sell the factory to Lou Hongyi, which is obviously an attempt to trick foreigners. Thinking of this, Du Fei's brows furrowed even deeper.

As local tycoons, would the Songdao family know about this situation?

What happened to Lou Hongyi? Or is it that the second son of the Lou family joined forces with the father-in-law's family to deceive his biological father? Du Fei's eyes turned sinister.

"Matsushima family~" He muttered and raised his head to look at Luo Zhengming, "What's going on with this Matsushima family?"

Luo Zhengming was experienced and had indeed investigated the situation of the Matsushima family in advance and replied, "The Matsushima family is a well-known family in Shikoku Island. It is currently mainly engaged in textiles, wine making and hotel industries. It belongs to the Mitsubishi Foundation's system among the four major Japanese conglomerates. . The current head of the family, Matsushima Daimoto, was a director of Mitsubishi Bank."

Hearing this, Du Fei couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Although I tried to overestimate the power of the Matsushima family, after listening to Luo Zhengming's account, I still underestimated it.

Banks are the core of a Japanese-style consortium. The fact that Matsushima Daimoto can become a director of Mitsubishi Bank shows that he has considerable influence within the consortium.

Would such a person know the situation of a small factory right under his nose? But there was one thing that Du Fei didn't think about.

Pass.

There are only dozens of second-hand machine tools. The reason why Du Fei attaches so much importance to them is because of the special circumstances of flower cultivation and there is no way to import them normally. Otherwise it wouldn't be the case at all.

But just these dozens of machine tools, as for letting a capitalist like Songdao with a big family and business use such shameful means. There must be another reason behind this.

But Luo Zhengming can only check here. If you investigate deeper, the price you have to pay will be too high. Du Fei thanked him and left Luo Zhengming.

Riding a motorcycle back to the unit.

Along the way, I was thinking, what on earth is going on? Obviously, this matter is certainly not simple.

Unfortunately, there is too little effective information at the moment. I went back to the unit and thought about it for a day, but I couldn't find any clues. But one thing is for sure, there must be something wrong with Lou Hongyi.

The reason why the other party used Yamada Co., Ltd.'s machine tools as bait shows that they know who wants the machine tools and the significance of these machine tools. If you think about it this way, once this matter goes well with the other party's plan.

When Du Fei paid to buy the factory and prepared to transfer the machine tools, he was suddenly told that there was a legal dispute. What would be the outcome? The first person to bear the brunt must be Lou Hongyi.

Thinking of this, Du Fei took out a cigarette from his pocket, flicked it, and lit the match. I thought to myself, "Isn't this coming for me this time, but for Lou Hongyi?"

"

But the problem is, how does Lou Hongyi work for Du Fei now? Targeting Lou Hongyi is targeting Du Fei. "Who could it be?"

Du Fei exhaled a puff of smoke and couldn't help but chew his teeth.

After thinking for a moment, I had no idea, so I didn’t want to waste any more brain cells. The most important thing now is how to deal with it.

Either stop the loss in time and ask Lou Hongyi to stop directly.

Either use the trick to see who the other party is and what their plans are. Although the former can avoid losses, the latter can catch enemies hiding in the dark. How to choose?

Du Fei sat in the office and smoked three cigarettes in a row before finally making a decision. Stop losses promptly and don’t get entangled.

This matter involves Dongyang and Xiangjiang, both of which are beyond our reach.

If we really want to investigate, we don't know how many resources will be consumed and even unnecessary sacrifices will be caused. Besides, things have priorities.

No matter who the other party is or what their plans are.

One thing is certain, it must be an external force and cannot pose a direct threat to Du Fei.

. Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a small act that doesn't deserve to be seen on the stage.

Du Fei's top priority now is to produce a copycat version of the T62 tank as soon as possible.

After thinking about it, Du Fei decided to ignore the minor details and do the most important things first. Soon, Lou Hongyi was called over.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Du Fei's face was gloomy, and his heart skipped a beat, wondering what was going on? "Manager Du?" Lou Hongyi was very discerning and immediately acted with caution.

Du Fei said "hmm", raised his hand to signal him to sit down, and said in a deep voice, "Old Lou, let's stop talking about the Yamada Corporation you mentioned~"

Lou Hongyi was stunned and didn't react for a while.

Du Fei continued, "People who are not of my race must have different hearts, and in-laws are not safe." Lou Hongyi couldn't understand that something must have gone wrong in Japan.

He hurriedly asked, "Manager Du, what's going on?"

Du Fei didn't hide it, and said directly, "I asked the comrades there to help investigate these days. This Yamada Corporation has been mortgaged to the bank a long time ago."

Lou Hongyi's face turned pale instantly.

Of course he understood what this meant.

Once a legal dispute occurred, even if he took real money, he couldn't transport those machine tools out of the country. And this matter was obviously set up by someone.

The next moment, he thought of his second son Lou Yuanwei.

It is impossible to say that Lou Yuanwei was completely unaware of the matter.

Originally, Lou Hongyi felt that although Lou Yuanwei was average in ability, he was more stable and responsible than his elder brother. Unexpectedly, his own son actually cooperated with outsiders to stab him in the back.

But the next moment, Lou Hongyi suddenly reacted.

After more than ten years of separation, I am afraid that his biological father is the outsider~ Lou Hongyi couldn't help but grin and laughed bitterly, and didn't know what to say to Du Fei.

Du Fei reached out and patted his shoulder, "Old Lou, you don't have to say anything. The organization and I have absolute trust in you. Besides, no one is perfect. You don't have to think too much. You learn from your mistakes."

Lou Hongyi breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body also fell down. He said with a bitter face, "Manager Du, thank you! I..." Du Fei increased his strength and patted his shoulder again.

Lou Hongyi was indeed a man who had experienced many ups and downs. He cheered up in just a few minutes, thinking quickly and carefully asking, "What should we do next?"

Du Fei said, "Don't think about the Japanese machine tools. When you go back, just get 20 machine tools in Hong Kong and send them back to me. It's best if they are made in West Germany after the war. Buy a batch of steel ingots and send them over as well."

Lou Hongyi didn't understand.

Although Hong Kong has developed well in recent years, it has never been able to put up a good reputation in mechanical processing. There are no new machine tools like those of Yamada Co., Ltd. a few years ago.

Even if they can barely get a few, they are all more than 20 years old, which are not advanced even in China. In order to avoid Du Fei's dissatisfaction in the future, Lou Hongyi expressed his concerns in advance.

Du Fei waved his hand and said,

"Old Lou, just do as I say. You can release the news appropriately to the outside world, saying that you got a new machine tool through secret channels."

Lou Hongyi couldn't figure out what Du Fei meant. Even if it was bluffing, what was the point? But since the words had come to this point, he couldn't say much and could only agree.

In his heart, he gritted his teeth secretly, just pretending that there was no son named Lou Yuanwei. After instructing Lou Hongyi to do it as soon as possible, Du Fei sent him out.

Standing on the steps outside the gate, looking at Lou Hongyi's somewhat hunched back, he couldn't help but sigh. This time, the betrayal of the second son was a major blow to the Lou family and Lou Hongyi.

But no matter what, as long as Lou Hongyi still has a breath, he has to continue working.

Watching Lou Hongyi walk away, Du Fei did not go back, but rode a motorcycle and went to the Beijing Library again. He has become a frequent visitor here in the past few days.

The staff all know him.

The staff on duty at the front desk did not look at the ID card, and smiled and said directly, "Manager Du, you are here again~" Du Fei smiled and responded, walked through the lobby of the front building, and came to Hongwen Building.

Going to the second floor with ease.

Just now, Du Fei told Lou Hongyi those things, and he had an idea in his mind. The machine tool can't be pointed outside.

It happened that this time I found the library, a place with a stable supply of blue light. There is no need to look for some relatively new and advanced machine tools. Just upgrade the blue light directly.

As for asking Lou Hongyi to send back some steel ingots, it is a trick to upgrade the artillery steel.

Du Fei knew from the beginning that the material problem is not easy to solve.

For special steel like artillery steel, even if the formula is given to you, if the steelmaking process is not right and the temperature is not right, it still cannot be refined. So Du Fei did not expect to solve the material problem through reverse research from the beginning.

We can only wait for the country's scientific and technological level to catch up slowly. As for the emergency now, we can only rely on the golden finger.

Directly upgrade the domestically produced artillery steel slightly, and it will be transformed into imported artillery steel bought at a high price from the international black market.

In this way, not only the biggest shortcoming of the tank gun is solved, but also the cost can be raised when it is sold out in the future, and the fire equipment company can take more profits when it is divided.
