Reborn in the 70s / Reborn in 1978

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment."

"Hello, Mr. Zhang."

"Hello Miss Xi."

"Heck, heck, heck, ouch, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, hahaha, okay, okay, sorry. Um, what's the matter?"

"You waited for me to go there again. I think you haven't applied for the mortgage for three days. Will you have time? I have something to tell you."

"Well, huh. Well, well, tell me, I'm remembering."

"Arrange people to come to me immediately. There are several joint venture factories here, and you need to come to negotiate. This is the most urgent. You can arrange it immediately, and then directly set up a branch in Shenyang. There will be no less things in this area in the future. Moreover, the domestic economy will get better and better, and the development will be faster and faster, and there will be no shortage of business, and the first one will take the lead.”

"Okay, arrange it right away." When it comes to business, Manager Xi, who has become fully professional, immediately enters the working state.

"There is a large shortage of middle-level management in China, and suitable senior management is also required. This needs to recruit workers in Hong Kong, and several factories here also need to recruit skilled workers in Hong Kong. Lao Guo is working on this matter. You can discuss it with him. , Let’s do it together directly. The character must be good, and other things can be relaxed.”

"Okay, Guo Shengyou told me, fashion designer, proofer, tailor, I have paid attention."

"Mechanics, skilled processing workers, machine milling, milling, drilling and boring are all required, and workers related to the automobile industry are required in large quantities, but they must be skilled workers and have no bad records."

"Well, this work is already being done. Guo Sheng also plans to go to Changchun and Shanghai to try it out. I think it's okay."

"Uh, well, you can do whatever you want, but it's best not to make too much noise. It's definitely a poaching job. We still need to pay attention to domestic political issues."

"Okay. Anything else?"

"Oh, there are a lot of things. Why don't you come here in person, let's communicate face to face, I don't know what to say for a while, there are a lot of things, I'm going to the capital for a meeting soon, I can only talk about it The matter is left to you to arrange, and Ms. He will definitely not be able to cover it."

"...Okay, I'll bring the team here. Just fix the branch, then beybey?"

"Bai Bai, pay attention to safety on the road."

Putting down the phone, before picking it up, the phone rang.

"Hey?"

"Me." The old man's voice.

"Grandpa? What's the matter?"

"I have already reported the situation in Japan. When you arrive in the capital, someone will come to you to find out the situation. I am calling now to ask you something. You said just now that Japan is the most important island chain in the US global blockade Is there any evidence for this statement?"

The island chain blockade plan was proposed by the Americans in 1951. It was mainly a plan to blockade the Soviet Union and strengthen local defense. With the intensification of the Cold War, the United States also continued to invest heavily in the island chain plan and continued to strengthen it.But at this time, our country did not realize the blockade and impact of the island chain plan on our country, because we did not have a real navy at this time, and because we did not pay attention to the ocean at this time.

It wasn't until the disintegration of the Soviet Union that the Americans not only did not abandon the island chain plan, but continued to strengthen and shrink it, the country realized that this was an act against itself, but even if they found out, there was nothing they could do, and they couldn't get out.However, since the 90s, the country has begun to pay attention to the ocean and began to increase naval investment. This can be regarded as a surprise brought about by the island chain blockade.

Until the Liaoning was launched into the sea, it was finally able to stand up straight at sea and had its own backbone.

Chapter 495 Island Chain (5)

Zhang Xingming organized the language and said: "Grandpa, do you have a map at hand? Take a pen and draw the chain from the four islands to Taiwan, and then look at the Indian Ocean. Where should the U.S. military be located?" Is that right? Connect these places together with Taiwan Bend, and you will understand. All our sea routes have been blocked, and the ocean has become our de facto restricted area, controlled by the Americans. What do you think will happen if there is a war?"

"The biggest shortcoming of our country now is that we haven't paid much attention to the ocean and the navy. Grandpa, science and technology are getting more and more advanced, and resources on land are being extracted faster and faster. This thing is not endless. The ocean occupies the surface area How many resources are there in the ocean? The focus of future development must be the ocean. At the same time, with the development of science and technology, the speed of information dissemination is getting faster and faster, and world trade is getting bigger and bigger. Shipping will surely become the most prosperous in the world. The most convenient mode of transportation, but we have no say or strength at sea, is this what a big country should look like?"

"Europe and the United States, including Japan, have long noticed the importance of the ocean and are trying their best to enclose the ocean. Why? That is enclosing resources. When the future develops and uses marine resources in large quantities, we will only It’s time to watch the fun. Is our sea area small? But take a look, how much of it is in our own hands? How much of our sea has been invaded by these small Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam and Japan?”

The old man spent a long time looking around, the sound of the water glass moving, the sound of flipping through some books, for a long time, the old man said: "You are right, we have never thought about this before, and these countries in Southeast Asia It’s not a matter of occupying a few small islands and occupying some sea area, they are also important distribution points in the blockade island chain you mentioned. Negligence, I always thought that the old US was targeting the Soviet Union and was friendly to us.”

Zhang Xingming said: "For the time being, the old US is indeed friendly to us, because if the old US wants to form a de facto bipolar, it must win us over to his side, and our several conflicts with the Soviet Union were not so simple. , although the Soviet Union is indeed not a fun thing. But in general, European and American countries, including the Soviet Union, are very concerned about a big country like us, and they will unanimously restrain our development. Historically, we have always Those who are pressing them down, they have just stood up for more than two hundred years, and they don't want to be pushed down again."

The old man smiled and said, "It seems that you know a lot about history, better than mathematics."

Zhang Xingming's face was covered with black lines.

Sighing, the old man said: "There is no money. The economy is backward, and everything must be behind. This is also the reason why everyone is working together to develop the economy. Only when there is money in the pocket can you be motivated and have a chance of success. Come on, boy, It depends on your generation."

Zhang Xingming said: "Don't say that, it depends on my dad's generation. If we wait for our generation to get it, it will take many years."

The old man smiled and said: "Yes, yes, I ignored your age, then you can earn more money, foreign exchange, we are short of foreign exchange, you have to contribute more, for the country to develop, foreign exchange is essential."

Zhang Xingming said: "Okay, you have to work hard. How about Grandpa, the country will give me some money, and I will help the country earn some foreign exchange."

The old man said: "Okay, the 2000 million US dollars will be given to you in the next few days, and it will be used as capital."

Zhang Xingming was dumbfounded, and said, "Grandpa, don't you bring this? Is that my money?"

The old man laughed and said, "You're kidding, this matter is done well, and the country will not lose you. I have to report on other things, just wait for my news, that's it." Hang up the phone.

Zhang Xingming put down the phone and wiped the sweat off his brow. The old man's joke was a bit scary, 2000 million US dollars.

Continuing to complete the plan, we need to add a lot of factories at once. This is not as simple as recruiting a few people. A team has to work hard for several months. It is a headache, and there are too few people who can do it.And now everyone is in charge of a bunch, and it is impossible to make up for things, so it will be even more chaotic.

Listed the tasks one by one, and then Zhang Xingming fell down on the sofa with a groan in pain, who are the people, where are they going to get people, the number of middle-level personnel that is needed is not a small number.

I lay there thinking for a long time, and finally decided, I don't want to, let's talk about it when Manager Xi and the others arrive, and discuss it.

……

The next night, the negotiation team of the investment company arrived in Shenyang, and the government dispatched a car to take the people to Benxi, and arranged them to the guest house of the Municipal Party Committee. Zhang Xingming waited for the team to arrive at the guest house, had a meal with everyone, held a meeting overnight, and studied until midnight .

At nine o'clock in the morning on the third day, the development zone, Benxi Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., and Volvo started negotiations on joint ventures in the small meeting room of the municipal government.

A deputy head of the development zone came, but Xiaotian didn't come in person, he hid behind like Zhang Xingming, leaving a room for redemption. General Manager Zhang of Bengang came in person, with an accountant, and he took this matter very seriously. , although the development momentum of Benxi Iron and Steel is not bad for the time being, there are also great hidden dangers. There are no advanced products, most of the equipment in factories and mines are aging, the burden of welfare is heavy, and the production efficiency is low.

And because they rejected the joint venture request of the United States and Japan, the higher authorities were also very dissatisfied with Benxi Iron and Steel. From time to time, small shoes flew down, and the policy had begun to obviously tilt towards Anshan Iron and Steel. wind color.

In the previous life, because of these reasons, General Manager Zhang went to the United States directly in the name of investment, and took away billions of dollars. The chief accountant was retired, and Benxi Steel fell into a slump and began to decline.

General Manager Zhang wore a well-fitting suit and sat upright in his seat to speak: "Our Benxi Iron and Steel Company was founded in 1909 and was once the world's largest steel company after the founding of the People's Republic of China."

"Mr. Zhang, there is no need to introduce the company. Let's talk about the details directly to save time. Now that we have come, it means that the overall goal of choosing to cooperate with Benxi Iron and Steel is certain. You should know that our small boss is a child of Benxi Iron and Steel. , His father is an employee of your company." With a faint professional smile on her face, Xi Shuhui interrupted General Manager Zhang in a soft voice.

General Manager Zhang was visibly embarrassed, and then smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I respect Hong Kong's opinion, let's discuss the details directly." You must know that he is a deputy ministerial-level cadre, and it was the first time someone interrupted his speech. If the other party is not a Hong Kong businessman, it is possible to slap the table and leave.

Chapter 496 Negotiations Finalized (1)

Xi Shuhui brushed her hair, looked down at the documents, and said: "The first one is the special steel company to be established, which mainly uses our technology to produce the highest level of special-purpose steel in the world, including automotive steel, bearings, and engine steel. As well as chassis materials, products will be purchased by us in a centralized manner. Plants, technology, technical personnel, equipment procurement including product sales, all of the above will be provided or constructed by us. Fang holds 70%, Benxi Iron and Steel 25%, and the development zone holds 5% of the shares. In fact, we can build a factory completely independently, but because our small boss has a lot of affection for Benxi Iron and Steel, it is entirely out of helping the hometown, building The idea of ​​the hometown is the only way to propose a joint venture, General Manager Zhang, what do you think?"

General manager Zhang frowned and thought about it, the accountant came to his ear and whispered a few words, General manager Zhang nodded and said: "We have no objection to the special steel part, which can be allocated according to this standard, but the worker's part hopes It can be transferred from our side, and we will send a deputy factory manager to station here."

Xi Shuhui smiled and said: "There is no problem with workers, as long as they are skilled workers, we can get them, but for the deputy factory manager, Mr. Zhang, we follow the international manager system, and the deputy factory director is not your leader. , I suggest you send a resident accountant, it might be better."

General manager Zhang talked to the accountant, nodded in agreement, and the two completely ignored the development zone.

"Then, let's talk about the special alloy aluminum plant. Similarly, our technical equipment technicians sell. For technical reasons, we have to hold 75% of the shares, Benxi Iron and Steel 20%, and the development zone is also 5%. Is that okay?"

Manager Zhang asked: "Technical reasons? Can you tell me?"
