Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 175 Money is tight

   Seeing Fang Lang looking forward to it so much, Polman was also very happy. After all, the person he recommended was approved by the boss.

   "Boss, don't worry, I will contact Dr. Tan Ke tomorrow morning."

   "Not tomorrow, do you have their number?"

  Seeing Polman nodding, Fang Lang said without hesitation:

   "There is a phone in the guest room, you call him now."

   "But boss, shouldn't we start by modifying airliners? Will there be a lot of pressure to recruit so many designers now?"

  Polman knew Fang Lang's future plans for this aviation company, so he was a little worried that if too many designers were recruited for research, it would cause huge financial pressure on the company.

   "Don't worry, I can first set up a research laboratory with funds to accommodate these researchers.

  We cannot allow these outstanding researchers to be lost. "

   Seeing Fang Lang's attitude so resolute, Polman could only nod in agreement.

   Picked up the phone in the room and dialed out. Because Polman spoke German, Fang Lang couldn't understand what the two were talking about.

  At this time, Fang Lang felt very regretful. He knew that one day he would need to go to Germany to recruit people, so he should learn German first.

  However, from Polman's expression and tone, Fang Lang can also tell that the two are indeed very familiar.

  Finally, Polman finished talking on the phone, and said to the expectant Fang Lang:

   "Boss, Dr. Tan Ke said that he wants to think about it again, because people from the Argentine government are also in contact with him."

   Fang Lang didn't expect that the Argentine government had come forward to poach people from Germany. This was more active than the Brazilian government!

   But the Brazilian government cannot be blamed for this. After all, Brazil has just experienced a military coup, and the domestic situation has not been straightened out, nor has it experienced foreign poaching.

   Fang Lang thought for a while and said to Polman:

   "Where is Dr. Tan Ke, if necessary, I can meet him in person."

   "He is in the British occupation area in Bremen, which is a little more free than ours. However, the boss does not need to invite him personally.

  I know Dr. Tan Ke very well. If the boss can promise Dr. Tan Ke one thing, I am 80% sure that I can persuade Dr. Tan Ke to join your company! "

  Polman obviously knew Dr. Tan Ke very well, and after feeling Fang Lang's thoughts, he directly put forward his own opinions.

   "Oh! Promise one thing, let's talk about it?"

  "Dr. Tan Ke is a very thoughtful and talented designer, but he also has a very bad shortcoming, that is, he hates people to dictate his work.

  During the period of working in Falk Wolf Company, because of disagreement with the former head of the research and development department of Falk Wolf Company, it was very unpleasant.

   Later, a "coup d'état" was simply launched, and he took charge of the design power of Fokker Wolf Company alone.

   Therefore, if we want to recruit Dr. Tan Ke, we only need to promise him and grant him absolute autonomy of the project.

  We only need to put forward clear requirements for the projects we need, and I believe that Dr. Tan Ke's ability will be able to complete them well. "

  After listening to Polman's words, Fang Lang frowned a little.

  It seems that this Dr. Tan Ke is a bit rebellious!

  But Fang Lang also knows that capable people are often rebellious.

   Besides, what the other party wants is to design according to their own ideas, and the one who wants to be the master is only the design department, not the boss of the company. What is there to worry about?

  After pondering for a while, Fang Lang said:

   "I can set up a design studio for Dr. Tan Ke alone. He is the person in charge of the design studio. I can give him all the personnel management authority. However, the financial power must be in my hands.

   All results obtained must belong to the company. "

   "Boss, don't worry! If the management of personnel is completely handed over to Dr. Tan Ke, then I don't need to recruit additional personnel for this design office.

  Maybe Dr. Tan Ke can join this design studio with the entire design department of Falk Wolf Company. "

   To be honest, Fang Lang doesn't like that all the staff in the entire laboratory are one person's cronies.

  The risk of such management is huge, one bad move will cause the entire design office to quit, leaving only an empty shell.

   After thinking about it for a long time, Fang Lang chose to give Dr. Tan Ke full freedom, but he had to sign a contract with the other party with a huge liquidated damages.

  Even if in the end, Dr. Tan Ke is a white-eyed wolf, he will recover all the investment costs through liquidated damages and get some compensation.

  However, Fang Lang also knew that Dr. Tan Ke's biggest risk of breach of contract was to return to Germany for research, but Germany's aircraft research association has always been restricted by law.

   At least in his lifetime, it is impossible to have a chance to lift the ban.

   As for whether he will be poached by the United States, Fang Lang has no way of guaranteeing it, because the domineering Yankee is unreasonable.

  But if you are poached, you must pay liquidated damages.

   "Okay, then you have a good chat with him, as long as he thinks capable people, he can be responsible for recruiting himself."

  Now that he has decided to delegate power, Fang Lang is no longer entangled.

   Instead, he continued to look at Polman's notebook. After turning two pages, he saw a list of researchers who actually had engines.

   "Do you still know the engine researcher?"

  Hearing Fang Lang's question, Polman also said a little strangely:

   "Yes! I am engineering management! I need to participate in the management of all parts procurement and whether the performance indicators are qualified!

   I need to participate in the tires, bulletproof glass, and key switches needed by trail aircraft, as large as engines and weapons! "

  Fang Lang really didn't understand this, so he didn't expect Polman to be responsible for so many things.

   "Then your engine researcher, what kind of engine do they study?"

   "There are researchers with piston engines and jet engines, but those masters are all divided by the United States and the Soviet Union.

  The remaining ones are all capable and thoughtful research assistants that I know.

  Please rest assured, the boss, most of the people here are not very famous because of their age and experience.

  However, professional knowledge and research ability are very solid. "

  Pollman was obviously a little worried that Fang Lang would think it was too much when he saw his long list.

  Fang Lang smiled and said:

   "It doesn't matter, I am not afraid of crowds, as long as there are real materials, I welcome them!

  However, I would like to remind you that Brazil's industrial base is still relatively weak. If we design an excellent product, we may be limited by our manufacturing capacity and cannot achieve the desired effect.

  Since I appoint you as the head of the aircraft factory, you must take these factors into consideration.

  Take tires as an example. Brazil is a world-renowned rubber producer, but we don’t have tire processing technology.

  So, I hope that when you introduce personnel, you can also add talents from these basic industries. "

   Now it's Polman's turn to be confused. Isn't this going to be the introduction of the entire aviation industry system?

  Can't help shouting in my heart: "The concubine can't do it!"

  Such a huge project is almost an impossible task.

   Fortunately, Fang Lang seemed to hear his inner voice:

   "However, you don't have to worry too much about this. I am now negotiating with the Stuttgart city government to introduce a complete automobile industry system back to Brazil.

  The manufacture of many parts can be put together with the manufacture of aircraft parts.

   After this matter is finally confirmed, you can see if there is anything you need to add, and we will find a way to introduce it. "

  Fang Lang's words made Polman fall into thinking, and soon thought of a question.

   "Boss, if we want to manufacture airplanes, there is one item that cannot be used in common with the automobile industry.

  Whether it is the blades of a propeller aircraft or the blades of a jet engine, very precise machining capabilities are required.

   Need professional processing machine tools, I think we need to introduce these separately. "

  Polman's words were like a bolt of lightning, hitting Fang Lang's head.

  I keep blaming myself in my heart, what kind of pig brain is this.

  The most important basic industrial machine tool industry has been forgotten by him.

  When I received the artillery factory in Japan, I was still excited to see so many German machine tools. Why did I forget such an important industry when I came to Germany?

   "Polman, you are so right, thank you for your reminder. How could I have forgotten such an important industry?

  Do you know if there are any excellent machine tool industry brands in Stuttgart?

  It is best to be able to introduce me, and I want to have a serious discussion with them about cooperation matters. "

  “I know of two excellent machine tool factories, namely Trumpf and Julang.

  However, I am not familiar with these enterprises, if you need, I can help you to visit them. "

   Of course, Fang Lang doesn't need Polman to deal with this kind of thing. Mayor Jonas is a better candidate.

   "No need, you are responsible for setting up the shelves of the aircraft factory.

  I will find other people to handle the affairs of the machine tool factory. "

   After finishing speaking, Fang Lang directly closed Polman's notebook and handed it to him.

   "I have no problem with the personnel, you are solely responsible. If you need any help, come to me."

   Seeing Fang Lang's actions, Pollman understood Fang Lang's thoughts, and this was a complete delegation of power to him.

   Polman was very moved by this.

   "Yes, boss. Then I won't disturb your rest. If you have any needs, you can talk to me at any time."

  Fang Lang got up and shook hands with Polman to say goodbye.

  After Polman left, Fang Lang was in a state of excitement. He didn't expect that this visit to Germany would gain so much.

   If you can stand on the shoulders of Germany and develop your own aviation industry, you can make a lot of money.

   If one day, my company can become a giant like Boeing, then I will have a huge influence in the world.

   But at the same time, he was a little worried about whether his funds could support his crazy expansion plan.

   Hastily called the accompanying financial assistant to his room.

   “How much liquidity do we have on hand right now?”

   "Boss, I just confirmed with the head office at noon today, because we are expanding rapidly recently, including TV factories, radio and television stations, the acquisition of Richfield Oil Exploration Company, the acquisition of Aston Martin, and the construction of artillery factories."

   Hearing the financial assistant calculate his own expenses item by item, this made Fang Lang feel very headache.

   interrupted directly:

   "Just tell me how much cash flow I can mobilize now."

  The assistant turned back two pages of the notebook in his hand and said:

   "According to the current situation that the scale of immigration is stable, the company can transfer 8 million U.S. dollars."
