Chapter 993 Well done
"Okay, I'll do it myself."

At the workshop door, Gulitong took the cigarette handed to him by Li Xuewu, but lit it himself.

Li Xuewu didn't care and lit a cigarette for himself with his lighter.

After the cold wind blew away the first breath of "fairy air", they looked at each other and nodded.

"I heard a long time ago that the steel mill launched a large satellite."

Gulitong looked at Li Xuewu, his face full of curiosity, and said, "I can't believe you are so young."

"I?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows in surprise, then smiled slightly and asked, "Do you know me?"

"Haha, it's like thunder in my ears."

Gulitong also smiled, looked to the side, and explained: "The trade fair held by your factory some time ago was quite fashionable."

"I'm sorry, at that time..."

Li Xuewu thought about his memories of that day and it seemed like he had never seen the other person before.

Or maybe there were too many guests that day and I didn’t pay attention to the other person, so I tried to ask.

Gulitong waved his hand and said, "No, I didn't go. It was our factory's Deputy Director Liu who went there. He praised you very much."

After saying that, he glanced at the cigarette butt in his hand, and his eyes swept across the factory area which was inevitably a bit dilapidated in the winter, and said: "Starting a business is difficult, and good generals are hard to find."

Li Xuewu looked at him strangely, then stood with him and looked towards the factory area together without saying anything.

He is not burdened by his fame, nor is he afraid of gossip behind his back. Even if it is flattery or temptation, he will not be flattered by a few words of praise.

After smoking half a cigarette, Gu Litong turned his head to look at Li Xuewu and asked, "Do you know anything about our factory?"

"I mean……"

He shook his hand hesitantly, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's about production."

"Sorry, I only know about small satellite taxis"

Li Xuewu smiled apologetically and explained: "I only found out about it when I was a kid watching the fun, and later...well".

“Haha, that’s been almost ten years.”

Gulitong chuckled, scratched his forehead and said, "I still remember the task I received in 1958, which was to solve the problem of rickshaw passenger transportation."

He took a puff of his cigarette, squinted his eyes and recalled, "Our factory was originally an auto repair factory built in 1952."

"You probably don't know, it was many years ago, and I had just started working at that time."

Gu Litong exhaled smoke and said, "It's an auto parts factory formed by Jianzhong Automobile, the repair department of Lihua Trading, the auto repair shop of Yongmao Industry, and Xiecheng Iron Works."

"We are a branch, the second branch, originally located in Erligou, mainly engaged in diesel vehicle repairs."

“I think I’ve heard of it.”

Li Xuewu frowned slightly and asked: "The scale of auto repair in your factory is very large, right? We learned about it when we were doing car maintenance."

“The largest in North China”

Gu Litong smiled proudly and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have the courage and ability to build a car~!"

“Although I failed, hahaha~”

He is quite straightforward, proud of his factory and open to past failures.

Li Xuewu could see his initiative, nodded with a smile and said: "At least we have trained the team and summarized the experience."

"Yeah, indeed"

Gulitong nodded and said: "The deeper, the more we remember, the braver we are."

After expressing his feelings, he shook his head with some regret and said: "We poured all our hopes and efforts into it at the beginning, but we didn't expect it."

He only said half of his words, the rest of his helplessness was self-evident.

Li Xuewu still remembers this incident, which happened when he was in middle school. It should have been the summer of 1960. There was a cute little taxi in front of the Beijing Children’s Hospital.

If this city is to have any liveliness, it cannot be without these youngsters.

Of course, there were dozens of cars parked at the door, and they could only look at them but could not sit in them.

In fact, whether it is passenger or freight transportation, insufficient transportation capacity has always been plaguing the city's development.

Today, young people who cannot find a job buy a tricycle with some money given by their families, put wooden boards on it and work as transport companies to transport people and goods. This is a way of making a living.

The same will be true in the future. When young people in Beijing are most helpless, they will find a car to rent out and do hard labor to support their families.

Of course taxis became popular later on and were no longer new, but in the 1960s they were very fashionable.

However, the good times did not last long. Dozens of taxis were parked on the streets one after another, causing a lot of trouble. Soon they were no longer seen.

Lao Biaozi also speculated at the time that it was the rickshaw drivers who caused the sabotage because they thought the rickshaw drivers were stealing their business.

Of course, what happened back then seemed like a joke, but looking back today, it is simply the result of industrial backwardness.

Gu Litong was particularly touched. He took the last puff of his cigarette, threw away the cigarette butt, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "I heard that your factory's finalized car is still undergoing road tests?"

After saying this, without waiting for Li Xuewu to answer, he nodded seriously and said: "It is right to do so. Quality issues are always the fundamental issue."

"It seems that you know our factory much better than I know about Second Automobile Works."

Li Xuewu said with a smile, then took a closer look at the other party and asked, "Factory 2 now...?"

In Li Xuewu's opinion, the Satellite brand mini taxi has a very novel appearance, a bit like the later QQ, and there is even a convertible version.

However, due to the limitations of technology at the time, the internal power structure was not solid, and it was delivered without any road test. It can only be said that it was too crazy back then.

How bold a person is, how productive the land is.

They worked hard and fast, started trial production in 59, launched the project in 60, and completed delivery directly. You can see how blind the policy was at that time.

The steel mill’s automotive project is just as bold, with a bit of the madness of previous years.

The plan was made in May last year, the car was available in November, and production will begin in May next year. It can be said to be bold.

However, unlike Second Automobile's previous satellite microcar project, the Red Star Antelope of the steel rolling mill was a redesign based on the Willys chassis.

As for the Willys' power system, the steel mill had already mastered it early on and used it for the vehicle preparation project.

As for other key components, steel mills do not produce them themselves and purchase all of them, which makes car manufacturing a cooperative product.

Li Xuewu cannot look at the explorers in the automotive field from the perspective of future generations, nor can he despise these labor pioneers.

So after Gu Litong introduced the history and development of Second Automobile Works, he also asked about his purpose.

"In July of the year before last, our factory received a task"

Gulitong paused slightly and said: "It is to solve a series of problems caused by the transportation of horse-drawn carriages into the city from the capital."

He glanced at Li Xuewu and saw that he understood what he meant, then said: "In order to meet the increasingly heavy freight demand, the city has decided to organize the production of light trucks."

"130?"

Li Xuewu reacted when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and asked a question, then nodded in understanding and said, "This is a good project."

As for Gulitong's pause just now, he certainly understood what the other party meant.

He has traveled all over the city. It is normal that he has never been to any important government offices, but when it comes to people's livelihood, of course he knows about it.

What's the problem with the carriage entering the city?

In fact, it is an environmental issue. You have to know that the new society was created from scratch, and the appearance of the capital directly represented the advancement and status of the time.

Because the country is so huge, many foreigners are curious and come to visit the mainland and even take pictures.

If you don't allow filming, you will be accused of being stingy and not having the courage to face reality.

It's really a good idea to take pictures. The streets are full of ox-drawn and horse-drawn carts, and the crackling noise is really not a good look.

People can control a horse’s eating and drinking, but they have no control over its defecation and urination.

Although every horse had a bag on its butt when entering the city, the dirt was still all over the ground.

This has a great impact on the image of the capital and has also affected people's normal travel.

Therefore, it is imperative to replace horse-drawn carriages with cars.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that a hundred years ago, the streets of Paris were covered with sewage and feces and urine were dumped out of the windows.

Young girls and wives wore fluffy skirts. When they were in a hurry to go to the bathroom, the servants would put a bucket in their pockets and they would pee while standing. They were even worse than the animals today.

But they, in turn, claim to be civilized and accuse other cities of being backward and dirty. How capable of them.

We have to have some dignity, so when someone says something to us, we naturally have to solve the problem.

After all, it was the 1960s. If the national transportation problem could not be solved, at least the problem in the capital had to be solved.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the city assigned a task and required the light truck to be put into operation.

This is how it is these days. It’s not easy for factories to do something on their own, after all, they all rely on funding from above.

All of Second Automobile Works’ projects come from “policies”, that is, under the planned economy, the factory produces whatever the “policies” require.

The advantage is that there is security, and even if the mini-car project fails, there is no actual loss.

The drawbacks are also obvious. The products are seriously affected by policies, with obvious local intervention, and they have a rigid vision and biased colors of the times.

Gu Litong was very envious and admired the steel rolling mill's courage to develop and produce cars on its own. Without any plan, once the cars were produced, they had to solve the sales problem on their own.

Of course, if the vehicle is of excellent quality and has received a certain level of recognition, it will also be included in the "plan".

This situation is the same as the Type 66-6 sniper rifle produced by the forging factory. There was no plan and it was completely produced under the instigation of Li Xuewu of the Light Troops.

If you become famous, people will come to negotiate purchasing. If you are not famous, your products will just be thrown into the warehouse and left idle, no matter how good the quality is.

Speaking of the Type 66-6 sniper rifle, it has seen some improvement recently, thanks to Director Lai Shanchuan's personal experience and endorsement.

Almost everyone who knew about that night knew the details, and they all had a preliminary understanding of this sniper rifle that was extremely accurate in the dark.

Of course, it is impossible to achieve large purchases and orders overnight, after all, there are too few spokespersons.

But Li Xuewu was not anxious or discouraged. Just like Red Star Antelope Automobile, he could gain more spokespersons and run experiments for a longer period of time. There was nothing to regret.

It was just as Gu Litong introduced that the original satellite microcars were now a pain, which was why he didn't want that.

"Why did I hear that this is a project of the Beijing Automobile Factory?"

Li Xuewu glanced at Gu Liyi and asked, "Is there any connection?"

“It doesn’t matter, they didn’t answer.”

Gu Litong explained casually and continued: "In April last year, our factory successfully trial-produced two BJ130s."

"Ok, I know"

Li Xuewu nodded and said, "When you were testing the car, the engineer from the factory mentioned this to me."

At that time, they went to Badaling to test the braking system, and it seemed that there were quite a few people watching.

Seeing that Li Xuewu knew about it, Gu Litong said, "After fully learning the lesson from the last time, our factory has been conducting road tests and extreme conditions tests."

"It sounds a bit crazy, right?"

Seeing Li Xuewu's surprised expression, he smiled bitterly again and then explained: "Last time we lost two factory leaders, one principal and one deputy."

"Yes, I understand."

Li Xuewu finally understood why Gu Litong attached so much importance to this new car, which directly affected his hat.

Gu Litong ignored his gaze and explained: "Our test results are excellent. We can easily handle 1.5 to 2 tons, and the maximum load is three and a half tons, or even four tons."

Three and a half tons to five tons is basically the load standard for heavy trucks, and the quality is excellent.

Don’t think that this load capacity is ordinary. How much can the big Jiefang truck carry? The standard load is five tons, and the limit is more than ten tons.

It can be said that the birth of BJ130 marks a milestone in the advancement of light trucks in the automotive industry.

At that time, there were only 17,000 light trucks in the country, most of which were imported, so the production needs can be imagined.

“You’re going to make a lot of money.”

Li Xuewu looked at him with a smile and praised him.

They are indeed going to make a lot of money. There are no competitors at this time, so it is enough for them to focus on production and occupy the market.

Gulitong glanced at the workshop behind him with a wry smile, curled his lips at Li Xuewu, and then sighed helplessly.

It seems that not only the steel mills have encountered the "pig killing scheme", but Second Automobile Works, which was originally about to usher in great development, is also facing the situation of being slaughtered and mixed with sand.

The two nodded tacitly, and both understood each other's helplessness and pain.

"Have you ever thought about how to do it?"

Li Xuewu crossed his arms, glanced at the other party, and asked, "Follow the path of Beijing Automobile Factory and engage in independent manufacturing of all categories?"

Gulitong curled his lips and said: "This is what the leaders above mean, but we don't agree."

He turned to Li Xuewu and said, "Your factory's production ideas are the future development direction. They are correct and healthy."

"Group purchasing?"

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded slowly: "It is risky. The automobile industry is not our factory's main project. We can afford to experiment. You...?"

“We can’t afford to lose”

Gulitong turned his head and looked into the distance, and said: "If we fail to seize the development opportunity this time, it is very likely that you will lead the team to annex us in the future."

"Hehehe~"

Li Xuewu chuckled, but did not deny this statement. He paused and asked, "Do you have any advanced ideas or experiences that you can share with us?"

"You should share it with me~"

Gulitong laughed, then glanced in the direction of the workshop, pointed at Li Xuewu seriously and said: "Don't show off your wealth, make a fortune quietly, or you may be jealous and scheme against you."

“You’re too late.”

Li Xuewu spread his hands helplessly and said: "Our Director Li is eager to let the whole world know that our factory is profitable and we want to achieve the goal of groupization."

"Ha~"

Hearing Li Xuewu teasing his own leader like this, Gu Litong couldn't help but laugh.

"Your Director Li has a pure heart!"

"Well, I'll report to him when I get back. You said he was stupid~"

Li Xuewu heard the sarcasm in Gulitong's words and said yes, outsiders should not bully Lao Li easily.

When beating a dog, you have to look at its owner!
You are presumptuous!
Gulitong didn't expect Li Xuewu to be so humorous. The two stood together and talked and laughed for a while.

"Compared to you, we are far behind and have too many constraints."

Gulitong thought of Li Huaide's high spirits and bold words, and knew that he was confident and capable.

"We made our own equipment and tooling, and built our own assembly line."

He turned to look at Li Xuewu and said, "The engine used is the BJ492 gasoline engine produced by the Internal Combustion Engine Factory."

"We decided to purchase the remaining parts from auto parts manufacturers across the country."

Gu Litong said seriously: "I heard that your factory has completed the procurement negotiations. Is there any channel? We really need help."

"Yes, of course."

Li Xuewu nodded easily and seriously and agreed. This was not about stealing the steel mill's business, so there was nothing to keep secret.

"But the information you heard is not very accurate. Our factory's purchase orders are not based on fixed agreements."

Seeing Gu Litong's puzzled look, he explained: "We purchase parts in batches and sign batch orders based on the best ones."

"Oh I see"

Gu Litong understood what he meant, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he nodded and said, "Your factory is indeed capable, the thinking is very clear!"

"but……"

He asked worriedly, "If we don't establish a solid production cooperation system, aren't you afraid of being affected by the current political situation?"

"afraid!"

Li Xuewu nodded in agreement with his concern, and then explained: "So there are more than three suppliers for each type of component."

"Absolutely awesome!"

Gu Litong exclaimed: "You are taking precautions before it happens and you have done your best to do your job."

“It’s mainly because we started late and were timid.”

Li Xuewu said this modestly, and then added: "Our factory's automotive industry parts procurement negotiation team is a permanent institution, and we sign contracts for procurement on a rolling basis."

“Yeah, I learned something.”

Gulitong nodded, but there was no joy on his face. The steel rolling mill was large in size and scale, so it was natural to set up such an organization.

Their factory is still not as powerful as the steel rolling mill, at least not now.

Seeing his dilemma, Li Xuewu knew that he intended to use the steel mill's purchasing channels, but being the first to do so was not a good deal.

Supply channels are also a business. Even if you are doing a favor, you can't be so casual and proactive.

So, no matter how hesitant Gulitong was, he did not take the initiative to offer help, but instead "fished" appropriately and changed the subject.

"Nowadays……"

Li Xuewu tilted his chin, pointed to the workshop, and asked tentatively: "Is this considered assistance, or development needs?"

"Haha~"

Gulitong glanced at him, smiled bitterly and said, "It's what the leader needs."

After saying that, he turned to Li Xuewu and asked, "What do you want?"

"us?"

Li Xuewu curled his lips, glanced at the dilapidated factory area, and said disdainfully: "We want nothing."

After saying that, he raised his eyebrows at Gulitong and asked, "How about you just accept them all? It's just the right time for development."

"You're so polite"

Gu Litong's mouth twitched, he looked at Li Xuewu with amusement, and said bluntly: "If you are interested in making motorcycles, we will not say anything."

"As for the workers and equipment..."

He hesitated for a moment, frowned slightly and said: "After all, people in the department are watching, the results of the first batch of integration must look good."

After that, he asked tentatively: "Half of the family?"

"What about the division of the family?"

Li Xuewu smiled and shook his head, but said seriously: "Workers, equipment, and machinery, all are given to you."

Without waiting for Gulitong to speak, he added: "We want land and production drawings, or at least they must be shared."

"Not quite right~"

Gulitong also understood what Li Xuewu meant. Is this land going to be valuable?
I haven't heard of such a thing. If the factory was valuable, it would have been sold long ago. Why is it waiting for bankruptcy and merger?

He looked at Li Xuewu with some suspicion, but Gulitong recognized his ability and vision. He heard that the industrial projects of the steel rolling mill were all invested and constructed by the other party.

Li Xuewu thought he was a nobody and no one would pay attention to him, but as soon as they met, Gu Litong actually recognized him.

He didn't think that what Li Xuewu wanted was so worthless, maybe he would lose the watermelon.

Li Xuewu spread his hands and said, "We have too many workers in our factory, and we are still implementing the recruitment plan, so..."

He first explained, then waved his hand to indicate the factory and said: "Our factory wants to build several tertiary industry branches, but the land in Liangmahe Industrial Zone is limited, you know."

I don't understand!
After hearing what Li Xuewu said, Gulitong became less and less convinced. Such a large steel mill needs to open a branch outside?
It’s just a request for land right next to home, will the capital not give it to us?
Even if other factories are moved, there must be room for the steel rolling mill!

"Or, give us the land..."

“Then we don’t want anything.”

Li Xuewu raised his head slightly, and instantly lost his previous friendly attitude, and looked serious.

Seeing the other party's face stiffen for a moment, he gestured to the people in the factory and the department and said: "You have to give them face, we don't need it."

Facing the occasional glances from the department's cadres, Li Xuewu said bluntly: "We want this factory if we want it, and they can't do anything if we don't want it."

"Then how do you divide it?"

Gu Litong frowned slightly and said, "The old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant are all thrown to us?"

At this time, perhaps because they noticed that the two had not returned for a long time, some people from the department had already headed this way.

Li Xuewu didn't even bother to pay attention to him. He looked at Gu Litong and said, "The mechanical equipment is the icing on the cake for us. Giving it to you is like giving you timely help, right?"

Gulitong looked at him without comment, waiting for his next words.

In fact, he really wanted mechanical equipment, but he also knew that the steel mill was importing machinery recently, and it must have given them these pieces of junk because it was not satisfied with them.

"You need workers even more. To expand production and operations, mature technical workers are always better than newly trained ones."

Li Xuewu said seriously: "The technical workers in our factory are being eliminated, retrained and re-learned. These workers will also be a trouble for us."

"also"

He gestured to the buildings and workshops on site and said, "They are old and damaged. Even if they were given to us, we would have to rebuild them. They really have no value."

The deputy director of the seventh factory who came over with the department leaders was so angry. What was wrong with these two people? They belittled his own factory in front of him. They didn’t treat him as a human being, did they?
“Our factory does intend to set up a motorcycle manufacturing plant, but not like this”

In front of the people who came over, Li Xuewu raised his hand and waved it around, and said lightly: "Apart from the land, the only thing here that is worth learning and drawing lessons from is their experience of failure."

"You're going to say that!"

The deputy director of the seventh factory raised his head slightly and said, "I really want to argue with you!"

He suppressed his anger, pointed to the inside of the workshop and said: "Our factory has already trial-produced the latest model of motorcycles. If we are given a little more time..."

"Just these scraps?"

Li Xuewu glanced at him with amusement, then looked at Gu Litong opposite him and said, "How about we give you the latest motorcycle production technology and just give you the land?"

"you!……"

The deputy director of the seventh factory was furious. He gritted his teeth, looked at the cadres in the department with grief and anger, and said with tears in his eyes: "You look down on us, but we don't want to be merged!"

After saying this, he trembled his lips and said, "If not... we have no choice, we also want to make a car that will make the nation proud!"

"Forget about making cars, just dream on"

Li Xuewu didn't care about the other party's grievance at all and interrupted his speech coldly.

It was made clear today that the Ministry brought Second Automobile Works and the Steel Rolling Mill to divide up the assets of the Seventh and Sixteenth Plants, and dismantle them at the same time.

The factory has been put on the chopping block. I feel like crying when I think about it now. I have been thinking about something for a long time.

If someone really shed tears and suffered grievances for the nation and the country, Li Xuewu could empathize with them.

However, the management is responsible for the factory's current situation due to their own lack of management ability.

He is not a judge and he cannot discuss who is right or wrong. Industry is cold and ruthless and there is no sympathy at the negotiation table.

Gu Litong withdrew his gaze from the deputy director of Factory 7. He didn't care about the other's hysteria and anger. He frowned slightly and said, "I can give you the land, but you have to take half of the workers."

"Workers don't want it"

Li Xuewu said firmly: "The steel rolling mill can provide you with spare parts procurement channels."

"..."

Gulitong didn't expect that Li Xuewu was waiting for him here. This condition was really tempting. It could at least save Second Automobile Works half a year of production preparation time.

"The spare parts channels are fine, but the workers must get half, or at least one third, otherwise we want half of the land."

"I'll give it all to you!"

Li Xuewu curled his lips and said, "Do you really think this piece of land is so popular?!"

After saying that, he looked at him, paused for a few seconds, and then said: "I can't give you the land, worker..."

At this point, he looked towards the direction of the workshop. All the workers who were in production were looking at this side with an inexplicable sense of uneasiness and anxiety in their eyes.

"We can negotiate with the workers, but we only want skilled workers, at least level 3 workers, and no one over 45 years old."

"Listen to me!"

Without waiting for Gulitong to speak, he continued forcefully: "We will merge the land and some skilled workers, and compensate the seven factories with 50,000 yuan for employee resettlement."

“As for this funding”

Li Xuewu glanced at the deputy director of the Seventh Factory, and then said to Gu Litong: "The money will be credited to Second Automobile Works' account, and you will be responsible for its execution."

"Why!"

Before Gu Litong could speak, the deputy director of the Seventh Factory became furious. He stared at Li Xuewu and asked, "Why should the money for our factory be given to Second Automobile Works?!"

Li Xuewu didn't even look at him, but just looked at Gu Litong who was thinking, waiting for his reply.

Gulitong frowned deeply. He felt that this deal was definitely a sure win.

Workers, machinery and equipment are all what they need, but it is useless to give them the factory land as their factory is in Erligou.

As for the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled here, we can find a way to solve the problem. We still have the 50,000 yuan.

The people in the department looked at the two of them indifferently, thinking that they were unnecessary for today's visit.

The original arrangement for today's activities was to first visit and inspect, assess the value, then sit together for a meeting, publicize the policies and spirit, and then use the department's policies to pressure both parties to pay.

But now both sides are traitors and are about to reach a distribution agreement in private.

What can they do? Should they grab them by the collars on both sides and slap them in the face to tell them who is the boss?
Of course not. The reason why this "pig-killing plate" is set up is because the strength of these two companies is outstanding enough to solve certain problems.

If you really get serious, neither side is easy to deal with, especially the steel rolling mill. Their Director Li has maintained very good relationships with the higher-ups over the past six months.

So Li Xuewu and Gu Litong stood at the door to negotiate, and they could only endure and watch.

No matter what the deputy director of Factory 7 shouts or says, no one here will listen to him.

This is the gap in strength, this is the ruthlessness of the business world, the law of the jungle, and the existence of planned economy.

"Factory 16..."

Gu Litong looked at Li Xuewu hesitantly and asked, "Same?"

"Yes, the same."

Li Xuewu knew that he agreed, and suddenly smiled and nodded, then stretched out his hand and said, "Don't worry, Factory 7 will pay 50,000, and Factory 16 will pay the same 50,000."

"make a deal"

Gulitong didn't care about the people who surrounded him. He smiled and shook Li Xuewu's hand.

"Oh, right"

He suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Those motorcycle techniques and drawings..."

"you still need to ask?!"

Seeing that the other party was so "ungrateful", Li Xuewu shook off his hand with a smile.

While walking towards Jing Yunong, he said bluntly: "Of course it's ours!"

When he said this, he was looking at Jing Yunong and blinked his left eye at the same time, which made Jing Yunong almost laugh.

In such a serious situation, this bad guy actually dared to tease me!
Gu Litong behind him raised his hand to call Li Xuewu. He wanted the blueprints. After all, this thing was considered a technical reserve.

"Deputy Director Li..."

"Of course!"

Li Xuewu interrupted him again, turned around, looked at him, nodded, and said: "You can make a copy. We are now in a cooperative relationship."

"……right!"

Gulitong pursed his lips and nodded helplessly. Using the steel rolling mill's automobile parts procurement channels, isn't that a cooperative relationship?

However, looking at Li Xuewu chatting easily with his colleagues around him, he felt that he had lost money on this matter.
Thinking of this, he turned around and looked at the dilapidated factory area of ​​Factory 7. It was just a hundred acres of land next to the Second Ring Road. He didn't see how it was valuable!
-

"Leader, are we losing money?"

On the way back, Li Xue turned from the passenger seat to look at Deputy Director Jing in the back seat and softly asked about her concerns.

It was a reluctant merger in the first place. Now we only get the factory land, technology, blueprints, and some workers. The most important thing is to pay 100,000 yuan.

One hundred thousand yuan is enough to build half a building. The budget for a residential building is only 180,000 yuan per building. It hurts to think about it.

Jing Yunong sat in the back seat with his eyes closed. When he heard Li Xue's question, he raised his eyes and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

After Li Xue expressed her thoughts, she paused and said, "Let's not talk about anything else first. What do you think of your second brother?"

"I……"

Li Xue didn't know how to answer this question for a moment. She was somewhat resistant to talking about her family, especially her second brother, in front of her leader.

We all work in the same unit, so it's hard to say anything.

Jing Yunong didn't care about her hesitation and closed his eyes again, and asked softly, "Be frank, do you think your second brother is someone who can suffer a loss?"

"???"

Li Xue was slightly stunned, then narrowed her eyes and said, "Is it okay to say this about my second brother?"
When did my second brother...!
Well, she had to admit that her second brother was a little cunning~
But this cannot be entirely blamed on my second brother. It’s because of the bad environment. My second brother was not like this before!
Although I was a bit naughty and had a bad temper in the past, I had never been so calculating and scheming.

It's only after I started working that I became like this. I was forced to mature, to be calculating and cunning!

There must be too many bad guys in the steel mill!

Jing Yunong didn't know what Li Xue was thinking, but even without her saying anything, he could guess roughly what she was thinking.

While it's funny, I'm also moved by the strong bond between the Li brothers and sisters.

"If you think from the perspective of the acquirer, you will lose money no matter what."

At this moment, Jing Yunong explained: "Think about it the other way around. Our factory only used 100,000 yuan to acquire several hundred acres of land, as well as technical drawings and excellent workers. This deal is not a loss, but a big profit."

"That……"

Li Xue asked hesitantly, "Our factory still has to pay the department 200,000 yuan for the merger fee. Isn't this a loss?"

"Do you think we can save this money by not doing this merger?"

Jing Yunong sighed, opened his eyes, looked at Li Xue and said, "The department insisted on giving you this money, you have to give it to me no matter what."

"this is not……"

Li Xue frowned and didn't say the word "robber", but still expressed her dissatisfaction.

The driver turned his head and looked at her. He felt that this girl was smart, but he didn't expect that she also had a simple side.

Jing Yunong shook his head helplessly, and didn't say anything more on this topic. He looked out the window and continued, "There will be more such things happening in the future."

In fact, no matter how you calculate it, it's not a loss. Three hundred thousand yuan, two factories, together with the land, technology and drawings, plus some excellent workers, it's profitable.

After the merger is completed, these two pieces of land will be exchanged with other factories in Liangmahe Industrial Zone.

In other words, the expansion of the steel rolling mill is still centered on the factory area and developed in Liangmahe.

These technical drawings and workers will be assigned to the motorcycle production plant under construction to complete the rapid construction of the new factory.

According to the channel parts procurement budget, the new motorcycle factory will complete construction and production this year.

With a cost of 300,000 yuan, the factory land can recover one-third of the cost, and the workers and technical drawings can be worth one-quarter.

As for the rest, as long as the motorcycle manufacturer’s assembly line gets running, the money will be back in less than a year.

Li Xuewu had just talked to her privately in the factory. The steel rolling mill has an absolute advantage in designing motorcycles and will not have to worry about sales in the future.

At first Jing Yunong was a little worried, but Li Xuewu asked her, would it be difficult to sell a motorcycle worth one thousand yuan? Would it be difficult to sell a motorcycle worth six hundred yuan?

Seeing that this bad guy was so confident, Jing Yunong could only believe what he said.

She wanted to see what a thousand-dollar motorcycle looked like and what a six-hundred-dollar motorcycle looked like.

Li Xuewu is absolutely confident about this, mainly because of the advantage of spare parts procurement, the cost price is directly shattered.

Look, Second Automobile Works has begun to follow the steel mill's supply chain path to build cars. In the future, car companies will face crazy provocations and market squeeze from steel mills.

Everyone says that mergers are problematic and inappropriate, but it also depends on how they are handled.

If he has to make a choice, Li Xuewu would rather compete across industries and learn from the later generations' Lei Jun.

What does Xiaomi have?
Xiaomi has channels!
Your product is good, so I will find a factory to make the same product, and then use relatively lower quality but absolutely advantageous prices, combined with channels, to beat you to death!

You're also lowering the price? I'm not afraid!
Because if you lower the price, it means your price is inflated, you are compromising with consumers, and admitting that you are not fair.

When your price becomes similar to mine, you recognize the quality of my product and the value of this product.

In this way, the pricing power of the goods is in my hands. Can you still beat me?
Therefore, competition is not scary, but bidding is embarrassing.

Since they are unwilling to succumb to the shackles of the planned economy, they can only become price butchers and harvest the market in other areas.

Even if one day we really face "policy" interference and are forced to withdraw from the market, the value of the factory in our hands will have increased many times.

The costs have been recovered long ago, and the only thing left is to see whether the profit is 1 billion or 100 million, which doesn't make much difference.

Jing Yunong glanced at the command vehicle in front of him, thinking about Li Xuewu's words, and all the resentment he had when he came here had long gone.

Especially when looking at the faces of those people in the department, I just felt particularly relieved today.

Sometimes, when I think about working with him, it is really easy. All I have to do is stand aside and say good, good job.

What Li Xue actually wanted to ask was how these two factories reduced their costs since their motorcycles have such large displacements.

Jing Yunong heard from Li Xuewu that 250CC and 500CC motorcycles absolutely cannot be used to make two-wheeled motorcycles, but they can be used to make three-wheeled motorcycles for freight transportation.

It has to be said that only the weak complain about the environment, while the strong only challenge themselves.
