Secretary Bai, speaking in business terms: "Selling alloy doesn't make money, outsource the parts to me."
Su Xiaocai: "You have mines, selling alloy surely makes a profit."
"We want to earn money from the parts." Secretary Bai was merely probing to see if Su Xiaocai could let go of the outsourced parts section. Parts are harder to replace, and Secretary Bai definitely wanted long-term cooperation.
"Why don't we meet and talk? I can't give you a definite answer here, the price needs to be reviewed."
Doing parts means being tied to the same boat, not easily swapped.
Su Xiaocai tapped her fingers on the table, granting production rights for the parts wasn't a problem.
President Hu was a mining trader, his prices were originally cheaper than many who bought minerals, only the prices must be settled well, as there wasn't much profit from mechanical limbs either, technically, it's even more troublesome than making Mecha, with too many fine parts and confidential devices.
