After a thousand years of trading, start a million barrels of oil

Chapter 79

The next day, after Jiang Fan had breakfast, he went to the conference room to hold a morning meeting with the branch managers as usual.

But what surprised him was that when he entered the meeting room, he was greeted not by lazy figures, but sitting upright on both sides, some even wearing suits.

And the people came very well, unlike before, they always ask for leave on behalf of others. They have to go to the scene, have something to do at home, anyway, there are all kinds of reasons.

Looking at the eyes of these people, they are all shining.

'What's the situation? 'Jiang Fan was taken aback, did he take drugs?

"Mr. Jiang, it's been a tough journey all the way." Old Wu saw Jiang Fan frozen in place for a few seconds, and greeted Jiang Fan with a smile on his face.

"Oh, it's okay." Jiang Fan also recovered a bit, smiled, regained his composure, went to his seat and sat down for the meeting.

Today's meeting was very efficient. When Jiang Fan assigned work tasks, he did not shirk, prevaricate, or make excuses like before.

Basically, what Jiang Fan assigns, he immediately agrees and promises to do it well, and some even take the initiative to take on more responsibilities,
The meeting that could last for two hours before ended in half an hour. This is on the premise of adding such a massive project as new mining.

Jiang Fan really realized today that human potential is truly limitless.

After the meeting was over, everyone got up and left the meeting room, and at the same time, they all smiled and nodded at Jiang Fan before leaving the meeting room.

After everyone else had left, Jiang Fan saw that Old Wu hadn't left, so he dawdled to pack his things as if he had something to say.

Jiang Fan: "Manager Wu, is there anything else?"

Old Wu laughed, moved closer to Jiang Fan and whispered, "Boss Jiang, I just want to ask, how did you find out that there are 20 tons of mineral deposits in these two places?"

This question has troubled him for several days, and today he finally saw Mr. Jiang again, so he must ask him clearly.

It was only then that Jiang Fan suddenly realized that the attitude of those sub-department managers just now was probably related to this.

With the new mine, there will be performance, they can get more bonuses at the quarter and year-end, and the channels for promotion will be opened up again, so they will naturally be motivated.

In addition, just a few weeks after I came here, I unearthed 20 tons of ore, like magic, which probably really surprised them.

Jiang Fan looked at Old Wu, smiled and said, "I have a friend who works in geology. They have a relatively new instrument. I asked him to help me find it."

The real reason is of course impossible to tell.

"Oh~" Lao Wu actually still has doubts in his heart, but it's not easy to ask more specifically.

But in my heart, I still admire the supernatural power of President Jiang.

As for Lu Jianguo, he also went to Fengtian this day and met with He Shan, the boss of Fengtian CNC.

He Shan is an engineer, and he also worked in one of the four major machine tool factories in China.

The former Huaxia Machine Tool also had a glorious time. 2008 was the most glorious year for my country’s machine tools.
At that time, my country's machine tool industry had a sales volume of more than 700 million units, far ahead of the sales volume of 240 million units in the United States and 140 million units in the island countries at that time.

But against this prosperous background, in the next ten years, my country's machine tools are rapidly falling,
And all this is due to the low-end trap strategy of foreign companies.

The so-called low-end trap is that Chinese companies have also tried independent research and development on high-end CNC machine tools.
However, the strategy of foreign companies is to sell or ban foreign brands at high prices for all products that China cannot manufacture independently.
Whenever Huaxia achieves independent breakthroughs, foreign companies immediately dump them at low prices, making the huge research and development expenses of Huaxia companies in vain.

Under such circumstances, the most sensible choice for Huaxia enterprises is to give up the field of high-end CNC machine tools, which requires a lot of investment and a long R&D cycle, and even if it is developed, it will immediately fail due to the dumping strategy of foreign companies

Instead, they all go to the production of low-end CNC machine tools that have low profits but do not have much investment in R&D. Immediate production can immediately withdraw funds.

In the blue ocean of high-end CNC machine tools that leads to high profits, no one in China is doing it, but in the red ocean of low-end CNC machine tools, there is a fierce fight all the time.

It is also this vicious circle that has led to an increasing gap in the technical level of high-end CNC machine tools in my country and abroad.

Fortunately, a group of insightful people also noticed this problem later, started their own company, and scrambled to catch up.
And He Shan is one of this group of insightful people. He was the chief engineer of Li, one of the four major machine tool factories.

Later, the four major machine tool factories declined, so he founded Fengtian CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd., investing a lot of money and technology to develop high-end CNC machine tools.

A lot of achievements have also been made, including the most advanced five-axis linkage CNC machine tools, which have also made breakthroughs, and many high-end machine parts have also been able to be produced.

But after all, after years of accumulation of technological gaps, there is still a big gap compared with foreign countries in terms of accuracy, stability, and types of parts that can be produced. It is still difficult to expand the domestic market and open up the international market.

When Lu Jianguo came to visit, He Shan had just left the workshop and worked with the engineers to debug the newly developed equipment of the R&D department.
He is both the boss and the chief engineer, and will personally watch the product including participating in design and debugging.

So when he came out of the workshop, he was still wearing a workshop uniform, covered with oil stains from the machine, and was dirty.

After He Shan returned to the office building, he pushed open the door of his office in his workshop uniform, and greeted Lu Jianguo who was waiting inside: "President Lu is here, I'll go change clothes first, just wait a moment."

"Okay, okay, don't worry." Lu Jianguo replied,

The two companies have business contacts, and the two have known each other for many years because of this, and they have a good personal relationship, so they don't care about it.

He Shan changed his clothes and came back again. After exchanging pleasantries with Lu Jianguo, he said, "Old Lu, why are you looking for me today?"

Lu Jianguo sighed softly, and said: "It's not about the batches of orders I told you about last time. I originally planned to purchase a new batch of machine tools, but they just delayed selling them without saying why. ,

But I have received all the orders here, and the first batch is due for delivery according to the plan, but the result is that they can't deliver the goods. You say it's annoying or not. "

He Shan also sighed when he heard this, how could he not know about this situation,
Things are in other people's hands, and if they don't want to sell them, they won't sell them to you, and they don't even bother to explain the reason to you.

But there is no way, the skills are not as good as others, so I can only endure it.

This is also the reason why he came out of the old factory a few years ago and founded Fengtian Machine Tool in a fit of anger, so that domestic enterprises will not be angry with others in the future.

Although some achievements have been made in these years, they are still far from the level of others, and it will not happen overnight to completely catch up.

Seeing that He Shan did not speak, Lu Jianguo knew that he was not comfortable with the current situation that Huaxia Machine Tool was controlled by others, so he changed the subject and asked the purpose of this visit, and said:

"Old He, I heard that you are negotiating with overseas companies recently and want to exchange orders for technology. Is this true? How is the situation now?"
