Machine tool technology from forty years ago may not necessarily be more advanced than today's domestic machine tool technology, but the performance of Dongyang-made machine tools is much more stable than domestic ones.
Domestic machine tools don't have major issues, but they have a lot of minor problems, and maintenance time is longer than working time. This is why even Ouyang Jun and the others would go through so much trouble and expense to smuggle machine tools from Dongyang.
Eighty million is no small sum; it's indeed a pity to just leave it like this. But if we delay because of this problem, all the previous efforts would be in vain. So Huo Sining asked unwillingly, "Is there really no other way to get the latest machine tools?"
Ouyang Jun shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Impossible, can't even think about it. Those Dongyang devils control this so strictly and perversely, especially defending against us in Huaxia Country, like guarding against thieves."
