Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

"Do you need my help?" Chu Jianghe asked with a smile.

"you?"

"how?"

Li Jinming wanted to say, what can you help me with? But thinking of this person's knowledge and his relationship with Minister Wang, Li Jinming took back the words that came to his lips.

He signaled Chu Jianghe to wait a moment, said a few words to the people accompanying him, and sent them back first, while he, Chu Jianghe and the others sat down at the table again.

Chu Jianghe asked the waiter to take away the leftovers, ordered a pot of tea, and several people sat in the lobby drinking and chatting.

Li Jinming glanced at Nalan Qing who was sitting there, and after thinking about it, he briefly told Chu Jianghe about the difficulties he was facing.

"We are currently in contact with several foreign manufacturers. Today we talked with a Japanese company. They are willing to provide us with a mature packaging production line. We are not very clear about the situation abroad and don't know which one is better. You You know, with how tight the foreign exchange situation is now, you can’t spend money without achieving results, otherwise it will be in vain.”

Chu Jianghe knew that in the early days of reform and opening up, some industries had to find ways to integrate with international standards if they wanted to develop. The most direct way was to introduce mature foreign technologies.

Through the introduction, digestion and absorption of these technologies, we will enhance the development of the industry.

To be honest, we have developed many industries relying on foreign technology.

It is difficult to break through from 0 to 1, but it is relatively easy to break through from 1 to 10.

Take the printing and packaging industry where Li Jinming works as an example. There are very few related equipment in China, but even if there is, the gap with foreign countries is not even a tiny bit.

Due to the late start of my country's packaging machinery industry, my country's packaging machinery has needed to be imported from abroad for a long time and is heavily dependent on foreign equipment.

With limited foreign exchange, Li Jinming was dumbfounded when faced with all kinds of international suppliers and production lines of different models.

Those foreigners are not kind to each other. Whatever you say you want to buy, we will sincerely recommend the most suitable equipment to you.

In this era, it is not uncommon to buy a mature production line and leave it there to rust.

The country's foreign exchange is limited. Even with Li Jinming's connections, it is not easy to approve the foreign exchange for a production line.

After Li Jinming finished speaking, he shook his head in distress.

Seeing him like this, Chu Jianghe smiled and said, "I don't understand the equipment in the printing and packaging industry, but I can really help you."

Li Jinming looked at Chu Jianghe suspiciously and said, "Jiang He, don't be joking. If you don't understand, how can you help me?"

"Although I don't understand, there are people who do. There is an expert sitting here." What Chu Jianghe said meant something.

Li Jinming was not a fool, so he could naturally hear something in Chu Jianghe's words and looked at Nalan Qing.

"Jiang He, you mean?"

Chu Jianghe pointed at Nalan Qing and said to Li Jinming seriously: "Let me introduce you again. This is the chairman of Qiangsheng Group, Nalan Qing, Miss Nalan."

Qiangsheng Group?

Li Jinming was stunned when he heard Nalan Qing's background. He didn't expect that this beautiful woman had such a big background. He knew the name of Qiangsheng Group like a thunderbolt.

Qiangsheng Group's current business in the mainland is foreign trade. This part of the business is mainly based on Zhang Li's re-export trade. By placing orders with domestic manufacturers, the products are then exported to all over the world.

This business volume is one of the best in the mainland. Now countless state-owned factories want to ride on the strength of Qiang Sheng Group and sell their products abroad.

This is a God of Wealth. As long as he can establish a relationship with Qiangsheng Group, it means a large amount of foreign exchange.

He was a little confused about how Chu Jianghe could be related to Qiang Sheng Group. He was not an ordinary person, but the chairman of Qiang Sheng Group was a giant Buddha!

Li Jinming looked at Chu Jianghe with a suspicious face, thinking to himself, you kid, weren't you lying to me?

Chu Jianghe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, pretending to believe it or not.

Li Jinming was sure that Chu Jianghe was not joking. His expression changed three times. Then he adjusted his mentality and solemnly got to know Nalan Qing again: "Miss Nalan, I'm sorry."

Nalan Qing saw that the relationship between the two was not simple, and she did not put on airs, so she greeted Li Jinming politely.

Chu Jianghe had told her not to reveal his identity casually in the mainland, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"Mr. Chu was just joking. Don't take it seriously, Mr. Li. In fact, I am not an expert and my understanding of the printing and packaging industry is limited."

Li Jinming said politely: "Miss Nalan is being humble."

The chairman of Qiangsheng Group is definitely worthy of his attention.

"Although I am not an expert, I can still provide some information to Mr. Li for reference."

"Appreciate further details."

Nalanqing smiled slightly and said: "As far as packaging equipment and machinery are concerned, the United States is the largest manufacturer of packaging equipment in the world, followed by Xiaori. The other major manufacturers include Germany and Italy. These four countries are the largest manufacturers of packaging machinery in the world. The four major powers. As far as the information I have available, German packaging machinery is among the best in terms of measurement, manufacturing, and technical performance. The packaging machinery in Xiaoli is mainly small and medium-sized stand-alone machines, which have small size, high precision, and ease of use. It has the advantages of easy installation and operation, high degree of automation, etc. I have some understanding of the situation in the mainland, and based on various circumstances, Xiaoli’s packaging machinery is more in line with your needs.”

Nalan Qing's simple words made Li Jinming suddenly enlightened, and he no longer had any doubts about her identity.

Li Jinming said happily: "It is really an honor for me to meet Miss Nalan today."

"Mr. Li, you're welcome. Mr. Chu is my friend. If you need it, I can help you contact several small manufacturers to ensure that Mr. Li can buy the equipment he needs at the right price."

Li Jinming was even more happy. He didn't expect that the problem that caused him so much headache would be solved so easily.

"If it's possible, I'd be very grateful. With Miss Nalan's help, I don't have anything to worry about."

Seeing Li Jinming like this, Chu Jianghe felt funny in his heart. Fortunately, Nalan Qing was a woman. If she had been a man, Li Jinming would have grabbed her and bowed to her on the spot.

"Ms. Nalan, don't think I'm too talkative. I have another question. Since Germany has the best technology, why don't we buy German equipment?"

Chu Jianghe was able to answer this question and said with a smile: "Let's put it this way, the German machines are like big mules. They run fast and have great power. The machines of the younger days are like small donkeys. Although they have little power, they can also grind." , the main focus is economical benefits.”

Chu Jianghe once visited a large-scale packaging factory in 2014. The equipment they are using so far is only equivalent to the level of the 80s.

For Li Jinming's factory, the machines purchased for Xiaoli are enough for now.
