Chapter 565 Help Me Set up a Trap
Because of these many factors and the fact that he really admired Chen Changliu, even though he left his job and opened a joint venture trading company, he still focused on Chen Changliu.
Peter Li was prepared for Chen Changliu's request to tell him his thoughts. He had been preparing for quite some time and spoke directly without much thought.
"Boss, Africa now has a population of 11, and the market potential is huge, but resources are relatively scarce, not to mention food. From large-scale steel and aluminum products, machinery and equipment, food, electronic products, to small textiles and daily necessities, they all have huge market potential. demand.
But I think textiles and daily necessities are the best entry points for our company.
Although China has not yet reached the level of the world's factory, and its manufacturing industry accounts for only about 9.5% of the global manufacturing industry, it has unique advantages in the production of textiles and daily necessities, with high prices and high quality.
Relying on the fact that when I worked for a flower grower, the rapid expansion of the flower grower brought me a lot of resources. Using these resources, I can make the goods circulate quickly..."
Listening to Li Peter's explanation of his thoughts, Chen Changliu nodded from time to time, and then walked around the office unknowingly, making the final decision.
When Peter Li first said that he wanted to open a trading company, he had a vague idea. Later, it gradually became clear and he had a more detailed plan.
In fact, it was this hazy thought that made Chen Changliu choose to support him with funds, and let Zhongan Security give him a lot of help.
After Li Peter finished speaking, Chen Changliu thought for a moment, then a cold light appeared in his eyes, and he said firmly:
“Your thinking is very clear, and coupled with the road you have laid before, there will be no problem if you want to open up the situation, and you can even become bigger and stronger.
But I want you to help me make a game at the same time! "
Hearing Chen Changliu's words, Peter Li looked solemn, and then he understood a little bit.
"Boss, for which company, to what extent should we do it?"
Chen Changliu handed a piece of information to Li Peter, and he read it carefully. Within a few minutes, he looked at Chen Changliu with a relaxed expression and said:
“Boss, it’s not difficult to make him suffer heavy losses at a certain price.
I have studied it before. Many companies in your country, especially those doing overseas business, are very naive. They just keep sending money to people. If they are fooled once, they can continue to do it the second time. After falling for the same scam three times, sometimes I feel like they are angels.
If I didn't want to do serious long-term business, I could just make a fortune and leave.
But it doesn’t matter, I just let my people set up a leather bag company, and I’m not defrauding them of money. There are many ways to cause them heavy losses, such as..."
Listening to Li Peter's words, Chen Changliu felt a little uncomfortable. Although it seemed a bit unreasonable for him to ask Li Peter to arrange for people to help him take revenge, but so what, it was just a loss, and it was already good without cheating money.
As for the many bosses Li Peter said are stupid and naive, Chen Changliu admitted that not only now, but also 20 years from now, they will be the same. They go out all day long, but in fact most of them are meat buns beating dogs.
In short, he was willing to be beaten, and he was willing to suffer. He was cut over and over again, but he still eagerly sent them to be cut. He was also an angry young man, and he called these people idiots countless times.
In this era, there are too many people and companies engaged in foreign trade who have been deceived and bankrupted. It can be said that it is an experience that immediately returns to before liberation.
There are still very few phishing emails, and there are still very few people doing this in Nigeria, which has been hit hard in the future.
However, scams such as fake bills and letters of credit are most prevalent in this era.
Fake bill means that the cooperation was normal before, but later the payment gradually became less timely. One time, a large bill suddenly came, and the money had not arrived when the balance was paid. After the bill was sent to you, it was very urgent. to urge shipment.
Because the previous cooperation and communication process was very smooth, the supplier would arrange the shipment without thinking too much. After the goods were shipped, the money never arrived. I contacted the customer again, but the result was that I couldn't get in touch. Many bosses were deceived in this way. The losses were heavy.
Very silly and naive, right?
Another example is the letter of credit. The letter of credit refers to a written certificate issued by the bank to the exporter (seller) at the request of the importer (buyer) to guarantee the payment of the goods.
The settlement method is the main method of international trade settlement. In order to deceive foreign trade companies, some foreign trade companies often gain trust by claiming that they can issue letters of credit. However, some foreign trade companies are often "trusted" by letters of credit without knowing the creditworthiness of the other party. , neglecting to take preventive measures.
Regarding the content of the letter of credit, the trapper stipulates a clause in the letter of credit. Whether the clause can be realized depends entirely on the issuer, and the beneficiary will inevitably be refused payment no matter what efforts he makes.
For example, there is this article on the certificate: the foreign trade company's products need to pass inspection before payment can be received.
The buyer will find various reasons to say that the quality of your product is not up to standard and refuse to pay. At this time, all orders have been completed, but not a penny has been received. At this time, there is a dilemma.
This is the "trap" of using the "soft terms" of letters of credit to commit fraud.
Foreigners in this era actually like to do business with Chinese people, because most Chinese people are honest, and our country is one of the safest countries in the world with the most stable business environment.
Of course, there are good people and bad people. Don’t think that there are very few such things.
In 2005, the Ministry of Commerce Research Institute estimated that the losses caused by foreign trade fraud to Chinese enterprises each year are at least several billion US dollars.
But Chen Changliu knows that even after more than ten years, the annual foreign trade fraud is still conservatively estimated to be more than 10 billion US dollars.
The reason for these situations is mainly due to the fact that the financial management and risk control of enterprises are more imperfect and there are more loopholes. The fraudsters' fraud methods are also varied. Most of the time, the fraudsters take advantage of the special policies overseas, and these enterprises can only suffer losses in silence.
Chen Changliu also knows the infamous "Turkey Scam" in later generations, which caused enterprises to suffer a lot of losses.
The fraudsters first registered a Turkish shell company, and the company came forward to deceive the domestic export goods to the Turkish customs, deliberately delaying time.
According to the Turkish Customs Implementation Regulations-if the goods are unclaimed for more than 45 days, the customs has the right to confiscate and auction them, and the original consignee has the priority to obtain the goods.
If the domestic company waits foolishly, the fraud company will buy the goods at a low price after 45 days, and then sell them at a high price to share the spoils.
If domestic companies notice and want to get the goods back through some intervention, they will face a series of blackmail. The Turkish fraud company will first ask for storage fees, and then continue to set up more obstacles and traps to defraud these companies of their money step by step.
Thinking of this, Chen Changliu was full of emotion, but this time he didn't want to be so extreme, and didn't want to really let Peter Li commit a crime, so he just used normal business means to make the other party suffer heavy losses.
