Chapter 409: New Peak, Top Ten Economic Figures in 2007

2007 was a year of rapid economic development in China.

Against this background, the 2007 China Satellite TV Top Ten Economic Figures of the Year Award held in the Imperial Capital tonight is even more suspenseful.

Except for people like Cao Yang who were contacted individually and invited to attend the award ceremony.

Most people still don't know who will win.

In recent years, the development of Huaxia Automobile’s independent brands is obvious to all.

Therefore, in addition to Cao Yang, Li Su from Geely Automobile, Wang Fu from BYD Automobile, Zhu Zhengfeng from Spring City Automobile Group and others are also popular candidates to win this year.

Yin Chuan of Chery Automobile has won this award in the past few years, which makes everyone full of expectations for the performance of the big guys in the automotive industry in this award.

However, although they were selected, Li Su, Wang Fu and others were not invited until the day of the awards. They obviously already knew the result in their hearts.

Of course, they will not take the initiative to explain this result to the outside world.

A little more popularity now would not be a bad thing for the company's car sales.

There is absolutely no need to put out the heat yourself.

"Mr. Zhang, I have confirmed that you are also one of the candidates in this year's selection of the top ten economic figures. Some relevant information was supplemented by our group."

"But in the end, during the judges' voting process, Mr. Cao from Nanshan Group had higher votes, so he will definitely be selected."

"Although your votes are not low, considering that it is not appropriate to nominate two people from the same industry for the award in the same year, that's why you were not selected."

"But I guess if I don't win this year, there will definitely be no problem next year."

"The development speed of our Yangcheng Motors in recent years is obvious to all. Not to mention the excellent performance of Yangcheng Honda and Yangcheng Toyota, the development of the newly established Yangcheng Motors independent brand alone leaves everyone speechless."

"Even our development speed is unique in the domestic automobile industry."

Zeng Guangda saw that Zhang Jiaqi was a little absent-minded today, and he cleverly guessed what the other party cared about.

So after a meeting, I started chatting with Zhang Jiaqi.

"I have nothing to say if I lose to Mr. Cao."

"Whether it is Xingchen Motors or the entire Nanshan Group, their performance in recent years has been unique and no other company can match it."

"If Mr. Cao hadn't been relatively young, I guess this award would have been awarded to him a few years ago."

"I just feel that those judges are a little bit..."

"If I don't get into the top ten with my votes, then I'll admit it."

"Now we are already ranked No. 9, but we lost to the person ranked No. 11."

"What the hell is this?"

After reaching a certain level, many secrets are no longer secrets.

This award is judged by 100 economists and 50 senior financial journalists, and a large number of netizens vote to select the "most popular candidate."

In this case, complete confidentiality is impossible.

How could someone who is eligible for this award not even know any of those 150 people?

If you really don’t know any of the judges, you probably have no chance of winning.

"Split the cake."

"This is also the consistent practice for various awards."

"Although it's unfair, if you think about it from the organizer's perspective, it's actually quite understandable."

Zeng Guangda can only give some guidance today.

"Hey!"

"Forget it, don't think about it."

"Let's consider doing engine research ourselves."

"Do you think this will affect our relationship with Nanshan Group?"

Zhang Jiaqi didn't want to keep discussing such topics in front of his subordinates.

So it quickly shifted to engine research and development.

As an ambitious OEM, Yangcheng Motor certainly does not want to keep buying engines from outside.

"As far as I know, Great Wall Motors, Chery Automobile, Geely Automobile and BYD Automobile are all working on their own engines."

"Nanshan Group should also be mentally prepared for this situation."

"As long as we continue to purchase engine parts from them in the future, I think even if there is some impact, it will be relatively minor."

"Of course, there will definitely be some differences compared with a company like Changan Automobile, which firmly said that it will always use engines from Nanshan Group."

"Whether it is in future engine model purchases or in terms of price concessions, there will be some differences."

Zeng Guangda and Zhang Jiaqi slowly started chatting about serious matters.

In the Imperial Capital, since the awards ceremony was held at night, Cao Yang still had time during the day.

Fang Sisi knew that Cao Yang was in the Imperial Capital today, and those who were originally on a business trip overseas had made arrangements in advance to return to the Imperial Capital this morning.

This way we can go to tonight's event together.

However, this time, Cao Yang felt a little guilty when he saw Fang Sisi's busy look.

This girlfriend, who is known as the Goddess of Chinese Internet Entrepreneurship, has always had many people who want to take advantage of her.

Even when Cao Yang went to see Fang Sisi today, he found out from her secretary that someone was sending her flowers today.

"Ayang, this time the organizer invites you to come over. It's basically certain that you will win the prize."

"I also asked someone about it, and you were voted No. 2 by the judges, second only to Mr. Yuan."

"At that time, you will be the youngest winner of this award since it was awarded."

As Cao Yang's female companion, Fang Sisi was dressed up today.

She is already beautiful, but this outfit makes her look even more stunning.

Mi Ying, who was carrying a bag not far away, felt tremendous pressure invisibly.

"It would be the best to win an award. It doesn't matter if you don't win."

"For me, running Xingchen Motors and Nanshan Group well is the most important thing."

Cao Yang's words are not hypocritical.

In general he really thought so.

"This year Nanshan Group's turnover can exceed 2000 billion yuan, which is definitely beyond the imagination of many people."

"The GDP created by one group alone accounts for more than [-]% of Yangcheng's GDP."

"If the impact of the industrial chain is included, this proportion will be even higher."

"Even this result is already higher than the annual GDP of some underdeveloped provinces."

Fang Sisi is very aware of the current influence of Nanshan Group.

Even the general managers of various branches of Nanshan Group are qualified to compete with others for the top ten economic figures.

For example, Ji Hua from Nanshan Gearbox, Cheng Tao from Nanshan Engine, Xie Lingyun from Nanshan Special Steel, and even Dai Hanbiao from Nanshan Auto Parts are not simple figures.

And she herself was actually voted as a popular candidate by netizens.

"Contribution is contribution, but sometimes it also depends on seniority and age."

"Many domestic awards require comprehensive consideration of various factors."

Cao Yang was very open-minded. After following Fang Sisi into China Satellite TV, he walked towards the awards hall in a leisurely manner.

As a former reporter from China Channel, Fang Sisi kept saying hello to some old colleagues and new friends.

The smell of a strong woman is not strong at all.

But combined with the little bird holding Cao Yang's arm like a human being, it gave people a different feeling.

Her relationship with Cao Yang is not a secret at all to many people.

Now that we are together like this, it is more like an official announcement.

"Sisi, today you are accompanying Mr. Cao to present the award. In a few years, Mr. Cao may also have the opportunity to accompany you to present the award."

When they met Deputy Director Xia Hong, they naturally stopped to say hello.

We are all old acquaintances.

Xia Hong is also familiar with this year's selection process.

"I also think this will happen sooner or later. Weibo is developing so well under the leadership of Sisi. It really deserves an award."

In front of Xia Hong, Cao Yang was also very relaxed.

He also knew the relationship between Xia Hong and Fang Sisi.

"With so many seniors queuing up, how could a little girl like me get their turn?"

"Xia Tai, please don't laugh at me."

"Ayang, you are serious. Xia Tai made a joke, and you still followed suit."

Fang Sisijiao smiled and bumped Cao Yang with her little hand.

It was obvious that she was in a very good mood at this time.

"You two are now considered influential figures in China's economic circle."

"Nanshan Group is one of the top ten private enterprises in China, and Weibo has uniquely led the development of social media in the world."

"Under such circumstances, it will be difficult for you not to attract attention."

"Tonight, among the top ten economic figures, the other people combined may not be as popular as the two of you."

Xia Hong chatted with Cao Yang and Fang Sisi for a while before going about her own business.

This event was hosted by the financial channel and was not part of her duties.

So although she will also attend, she basically has no involvement in the relevant arrangements.

She had many other things to deal with.

After Fang Sisi and Cao Yang entered the venue, they indeed attracted a lot of people's attention.

Originally, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women was very eye-catching, and coupled with their special identities, it attracted even more attention.

"That is Mr. Jin from Qindao Beer. He should also be the winner tonight."

"That's Bureau Li from the quality inspection department. He's also one of the top ten economic figures."

"The man in a blue suit standing over there chatting with someone is Mr. Chen, the vice president of Lenovo. It is said that he also won an award."

Fang Sisi leaned into Cao Yang's ear and quietly introduced some of the people around him to him.

Cao Yang, who doesn't like to socialize, really found that he didn't know many people.

Smiling and greeting many people along the way, Cao Yang and Fang Sisi sat down under the guidance of the etiquette lady.

"I heard that Mr. Yuan also won an award. Why didn't you see him?"

Cao Yang glanced around the hall curiously, but did not see the old man whom he admired quite a lot.

"He must be one of the winners. It seems there is more than one award."

"But I guess I was busy with work and didn't come to attend."

Fang Sisi only went to find out the basic information of each award winner.

Naturally, she didn't know the specific details of whether she was present or not.

Of course, if you really ask, you can definitely ask.

It's just that I hadn't thought of this before, and there was no need for it.

<divclass="contentadv">The two of them were chatting on their seats. Some people nearby wanted to come over to say hello, but they were a little embarrassed.

The main reason is that the age gap between everyone is there, and they are all leaders in the industry, so they don't deliberately make friends with anyone.

Of course, if it were at a dinner party, the situation would definitely be different.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait too long, and the award ceremony officially began.

"Sister Xiaoya still has the same style after so many years."

Wang Xiaoya is one of the hosts of today's event.

As a famous host of China Channel, Wang Xiaoya has always been a representative of the coexistence of wisdom and beauty.

When Fang Sisi first joined Huaxia TV, she once thought about whether she wanted to be someone like Wang Xiaoya.

"It looks better without you!"

At this time, Cao Yang's desire to survive was definitely full.

Fang Sisi rolled her eyes, but she was very satisfied in her heart.

"Dear..."

After a simple opening, the awarding of the first awards began.

"Under his leadership, Qindao Beer has achieved an important strategic transformation from becoming bigger and stronger to becoming stronger and bigger. Qindao Beer's brand value, market share and other indicators rank first in the industry..."

The first award given out by the "Top Ten Economic Figures of the Year" was given to Mr. Jin, President of Qindao Beer Co., Ltd.

This is also well deserved.

The total number of awards tonight is not large, and each award has a relatively high gold content.

Naturally, the organizers also arranged for each winner to come on stage to deliver a speech.

"President Jin's acceptance speech was full of passion."

Fang Sisi and Cao Yang listened carefully in the audience.

On the stage, Mr. Jin picked up a cup of Qindao beer and started advertising, "The slogan of the Chinese Olympic Games is OneWorld, Onedrear. Today I want to say Onebeer, OneDrink."

These words brought bursts of applause from the audience.

Sure enough, none of the people who can win the award are simple.

This acceptance speech definitely deserves 100 points.

Mr. Bai, the president and CEO of Boqi Environmental Technology (Holdings) Co., Ltd., who won the next award, was a little unfamiliar to Cao Yang and Fang Sisi.

However, after listening to the other party's speech, I also know that everyone is not a simple person.

"Ayang, the next one after Mr. Yuan is probably you."

"Are you also going to advertise for Xingchen Motors then?"

Fang Sisi saw that Cao Yang seemed a little nervous and couldn't help but joke.

This is a live broadcast, so there really can't be any mistakes.

"Don't worry, when it comes to marketing, we, Xingchen Motors, have never been afraid of anyone."

Cao Yang took a deep breath and watched the host introduce Mr. Yuan's situation.

He is one of the most influential people of yesterday.

The influence is definitely greater than Cao Yang.

Not only did he win this year's "Top Ten Economic Figures of the Year", he also received a special honor award.

Wang Xiaoya also revealed on stage that Mr. Yuan’s special honorary award was unanimously approved by the 13 jury directors.

The thing that makes everyone admire him the most is that he is doing research in the experimental field in the south, and his research is reaching a critical moment at this time.

So even if it was such an important award, he couldn't get away to receive it.

Of course, the organizing committee naturally knows how to adapt to this situation.

The organizing committee arranged for people to bring the trophy to his rice experimental base in the south.

Mr. Yuan received the trophy in the field.

These are played on the screen on stage.

Mr. Yuan, who received the trophy, was busy with work and did not even have time to dress up and receive the trophy.

When this scene was played, everyone, including Cao Yang and Fang Sisi, immediately couldn't help but applaud.

Wang Xiaoya: "Since 2001, this is the first time that the trophies for our top ten economic figures of the year have been awarded in the field."

The host's joke also aroused good-natured laughter from everyone.

When the simple Mr. Yuan delivered his speech of thanks, he still couldn't do without his old profession.

I saw him saying: "I hope that the developed super rice with a yield of 900 kilograms per mu can be widely promoted across the country in 2010."

I have to say that this is a character worthy of everyone's admiration.

However, Cao Yang no longer had much time to consider this issue.

Because Wang Xiaoya has already started a new speech on the stage.

"There is such a company that started from a humble nut plate."

"From nut plates, bolts, bearings, gears, to hot stamping and gearboxes, one breakthrough after another has allowed independent brand parts companies to keep up with the pace of the development of the automotive industry."

“From auto parts to auto equipment, from auto equipment to complete vehicle production.”

"Nanshan Group's progress has never stopped."

"In 2007, Nanshan Group's turnover historically exceeded 2000 billion yuan, making it China's leading private enterprise."

"And the leader of this company also came to the scene today."

"He is the winner of our top ten economic figures in 2007 - Cao Yang!"

"A round of applause, Mr. Cao!"

Following Wang Xiaoya's words, Cao Yang stood up from his seat and bowed a few times.

Then he walked quickly onto the stage.

He also participated in various award ceremonies.

He even attended some more important events.

So even if I was a little nervous just now, it was just like that.

"First of all, I would like to thank the organizing committee for awarding such an honor to me..."

Thanks, review, and outlook!

Cao Yang was already very familiar with this three-step speech.

No need to get any speech notes, just draw the prize directly.

It will definitely be very cheap to speak with a speech at this time.

Cao Yang would not do such a thing.

“A person may go faster, but a group of people can go further.”

"Nanshan Group is committed to providing customers with the best products and providing consumers with the best cars."

“Nanshan Group has faltered over the years before it achieved what it does today.”

"Nanshan Group has been growing down-to-earth, and now it has enough confidence, courage and determination to meet all unknown challenges."

"Only by growing down-to-earth step by step can you feel fulfilled in your heart, have light in your eyes, and be full of strength all the time."

"The power of dreams is extremely powerful. Nanshan Group has tried its best to make all kinds of impossible things possible."

“6AT自动变速箱、8AT自动变速箱、V6发动机、V8发动机、W12发动机、W16发动机，我们把一个一个不可能变成了可能。”

"People become great because of their dreams, and they grow because they persist in their dreams."

"Nanshan Group has always had firm dreams and down-to-earth growth."

"Only in this way can we develop the best imagination for the world and paint the most magnificent picture of this era."

"Grow up, keep growing!"

"This is the best answer Nanshan Group has given the times."

Others directly promoted their products, but Cao Yang promoted the Nanshan Group's culture from a higher level.

However, as soon as Cao Yang finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the scene.

Obviously, Cao Yang's speech was definitely a success.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Cao's speech is really wonderful."

"No wonder Nanshan Group has developed so fast in recent years. There are indeed some things that are different from others."

"I don't have such a deep experience in other fields, but in terms of carbon fiber technology and equipment research and development technology, I admire Nanshan Group very much."

Cao Yang's attendance at the award ceremony is no secret in Nanshan Group.

Therefore, many senior executives of affiliated companies went to watch the live broadcast of China Channel tonight.

As the sales director of Guangwei, Chen Qingxiang will naturally not miss this wonderful moment.

“A person may go faster, but a group of people can go further.”

"This makes so much sense."

Chen Liang was obviously still thinking about Cao Yang's speech just now.

In just a few minutes of speaking, so many classic sentences came out.

This is obviously not simple at all.

"People become great because of their dreams, and they grow because they persist in their dreams."

"Mr. Cao's speech is indeed every word accurate!"

"That shocking speech will never be forgotten after hearing it."

"I feel that none of the speeches given by the award recipients tonight can match Mr. Cao's, right?"

Chen Qingxiang and Chen Liang were discussing the top ten economic figures award ceremony there, and the Internet exploded.

As a very representative figure of the younger generation, Cao Yang also has many fans on Weibo.

Even people who follow Cao Yang also follow the official Weibo accounts of Nanshan Group and Xingchen Motors.

What these official accounts released today are live links to the top ten economic figures award ceremony.

The number of netizens who entered the live broadcast through these ports reached 100 million.

This is definitely a very scary number.

Of course, the speeches of each guest are quite classic, which is also a very key factor.

Just like another winner who came on stage after Cao Yang came down, he took a hammer directly to the stage.

I saw him excitedly talking about how he bought this hammer in a small supermarket in Germany more than ten years ago.

"The waiter asked me if I wanted good quality or average quality. I said I wanted good quality."

"The waiter told me that the domestic ones are of the best quality, while the imported ones are of average quality."

"This speaks to the aspirations of Chinese manufacturers. I hope that one day in ordinary supermarkets in China, a salesperson can say this to foreign tourists, if they want to buy good quality, buy domestic products."

This story, which I don’t know whether it’s true or not, also received a lot of applause.

It can be said that tonight's awards ceremony was star-studded.

In 2007, all-powerful celebrities in China's economic circles gathered together to enjoy applause and honors.
