Chapter 131 Arrival in the Land of the Sun
In this way, no matter how hard other countries try, they will never be able to produce a color TV more advanced than that of the Sun Country, and the Sun Country's color TVs will always be the most advanced products on the market.
Based on Zhao Yuan's memories from his previous life, Zhao Yuan knew that in this era, many domestic companies spent a lot of money to buy back industrial waste from the Sun Country, causing many machinery factories to go bankrupt. In a few years, a large wave of bankruptcies of state-owned factories would follow.
The following morning, sunlight filtered through the thin clouds, scattering across the earth. Led by Gu Tiehao, the factory director of the provincial machinery plant, a six-person inspection team embarked on their journey to the Land of the Sun, full of anticipation and hope, wishing to gain valuable experience and technology from this expedition.
After several hours of flight, the plane, carrying everyone's hopes, landed smoothly on the busy airport runway in the Land of the Sun.
Yamada Mitsu, representative of Taiyo-koku Osaka Furuta TV Co., Ltd., and Yamaguchi Honda, representative of Taiyo-koku Export Trading Co., Ltd., who had been waiting there for a long time, eagerly greeted the inspection team that had come from afar.
Speaking of Furuta Color TV Co., Ltd., it is a family business founded by Yamada's father, Yamada Furuta. Over the years, it has developed into a well-known enterprise with considerable scale and influence in the local area.
Currently, the company is jointly managed by the three Yamada brothers: Yamada Dai, Yamada San, and Yamada Ni. Among them, Yamada Dai, as the company's president, shoulders a heavy responsibility, leading the company forward.
Yamada warmly accepted the luggage from Zhaoyuan and the other members of the inspection team, and thoughtfully arranged for them to go to their pre-booked accommodations to rest for a while.
However, these guests from a foreign land didn't have much time to relax, because they knew they had a heavy responsibility and were eager to get to work as soon as possible, complete their mission, and return home. After all, the high cost of living here was truly astonishing to them.
After settling in briefly, the inspection team requested that Yamada immediately proceed to Furuta Color Television Co., Ltd. for an on-site inspection. Yamada readily agreed and led everyone to their destination without delay.
As they stepped through the doors of Furuta Color Television Co., Ltd., they found the spacious and bright conference room already occupied by Yamada Dai and Yamada Ji, who were already seated at the table, smiling and welcoming them. The neatly arranged conference table was laden with fresh and delicious fruit, emitting an enticing aroma that conveyed the warm hospitality of the hosts.
After the two sides met, they first greeted each other according to etiquette, and then introduced themselves one by one, creating a harmonious and pleasant atmosphere.
Following this, Yamada gave a brief introduction to the advanced production line that they were about to visit, laying a good foundation for a deeper understanding.
Afterwards, everyone went to the site to inspect the location of the colored electric water line.
The three Yamada brothers were extremely enthusiastic, displaying the humble and friendly demeanor characteristic of Japanese merchants.
They explained in detail to everyone:
"This production line is brand new equipment that we just purchased a year ago! We have to sell it at a low price because the factory is changing its production direction."
Yamada Dai continued:
"We spent a whopping $5 million to buy this production line! But now, we're only planning to sell it for $4 million."
Then he began to rave about the assembly line, describing it as if it were a rare treasure.
He vividly described how many competitors were eyeing this production line, vying to acquire it. In short, he gave the impression that if you didn't buy it quickly, you'd miss out on a huge, lucrative deal.
Under Yamada Dai's enthusiastic and persuasive rhetoric, the others were filled with longing and felt that they had to sign the contract immediately, otherwise, if they hesitated even slightly, someone else might beat them to it.
And so, the group arrived in the factory where the color electric cables were stored.
Upon entering, one sees a huge object placed against the wall, covered with a long red cloth.
At this moment, Yamada San stepped forward first and gently lifted the red cloth.
In an instant, a completely new and well-maintained production line appeared before everyone's eyes.
Yamada stepped forward and plugged in the power cord, and the long cable started running with a rumble. After running for a while, Yamada turned off the power.
Everyone gathered around the long assembly line and examined it carefully.
The two professional engineers from the machine shop quickly stepped forward and began a comprehensive inspection of the production line.
Everyone slowly walked around the production line, and everywhere they looked, the equipment was indeed brand new, as if it had just come off the production line.
The two technicians nodded slightly to Factory Director Gu Tiehao, indicating that everything was normal and that it was safe to use without any problems.
However, at this moment, Zhao Yuan was constantly plagued by an indescribable sense of unease.
Whenever he has this feeling, it usually means that things are not so simple.
So Zhao Yuan once again carefully observed the assembly line.
He noticed that the instrument had not left a single trace of use, and when he touched it gently, the surface was so clean that it was almost reflective.
It's obvious that someone deliberately replaced it.
But why go to such lengths to replace it? There must be some unspeakable secret hidden within.
Zhao Yuan dared not let his guard down and continued to examine every detail with utmost concentration, not letting any clue slip by.
However, after a thorough and meticulous investigation, no substantial problems were found.
Nevertheless, deep down, Zhao Yuan firmly believed that there was definitely something fishy going on.
However, the key cannot be found at the moment.
The others stood quietly to the side, silently awaiting Zhao Yuan's final conclusion and judgment.
Zhao Yuan was intently examining every detail on the assembly line; his sharp gaze seemed to penetrate all pretense and disguise.
Based on the rich experience he had accumulated in his previous life, Zhao Yuan had a vague feeling that the engine part might be hiding a key problem.
Without hesitation, he walked over to the engine and began to meticulously inspect it.
To better see some hidden corners, Zhao Yuan asked the staff for a flashlight.
