Riverside police

Chapter 463 Friends abroad

Although Barge, 001 and Old Antique went to Sanhe, the Bailong Port Passenger Terminal was still busy. Especially during the Spring Festival this year, we ushered in three happy events in a row.

First of all, Director Lao Ge, with the help of everyone, chased Sister Wei for more than two months, and finally moved Sister Wei.

I didn’t go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate, I didn’t hold a banquet to entertain relatives and friends, I didn’t even give out wedding candies, I just invited Chairman Li, Li Weiguo and the juniors from both sides in Linghai over for a meal, and gave them to Yuan Zai at the dinner table. Xu Haoran and Lin Xiaoqin from Yanyang made a phone call, and then they lived together.

Sister Wei was a little reserved and was embarrassed to move into his dormitory. It was he who moved into Sister Wei's dormitory.

Then, just after work on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the leaders of the Port Authority's Human Resources Department and Passenger Transport Department rushed to Bailong Port, convened a meeting of all terminal personnel, and invited the political commissar of Jiang Shen and the captain of the Jiangliu passenger ship that berthed at the terminal in the morning, as well as the Bailong Port Police Station Acting Director Chen Zikun was present and announced that Zhang Jiangkun would serve as the manager of Bailong Port Passenger Terminal.

The Port Authority has changed its leadership team and is undergoing structural reforms. It must operate in accordance with modern enterprise management and face increasingly fierce competition.

Positions associated with party and government agencies, such as department directors and section chiefs, are gone, leaving only office directors and a few cargo terminal directors.

The cargo terminal is mainly responsible for loading, unloading and refueling and watering cargo ships, and does not involve operations.

The passenger terminal not only sells tickets, is also responsible for loading and unloading passengers, refilling passenger ships, and has some freight operations, and then even independent accounting, so the person in charge of the passenger terminal must be a generalist, and the "political treatment" within the port authority is better than that of freight The dock director is half a level taller, and his title is manager rather than director.

As for salary, Zhang Jiangkun, the passenger terminal manager, is far inferior to the freight terminal directors of Binjiang Port.

Local governments are all focused on the economy, let alone enterprises like the Port Authority.

The cargo terminal can help the port authority make money, but the Bailong Port Passenger Terminal makes little money.

Ticket sharing is the main source of profit for the passenger terminal, and the profit from freight is almost negligible. If you earn two or three yuan from selling a ticket, the shipping company will stop doing it.

During the Spring Festival, there are many passengers taking the boat, but during normal times, there are fewer passengers. At the worst time, only three to four hundred tickets can be sold a day. In the event of typhoons, heavy fog and other bad weather, sailings are suspended. On average, the number is only thirty to forty thousand yuan a month. Revenue, excluding various expenses, cannot create much benefit for the Port Authority at all.

But no matter what, becoming the manager is the "top leader" of Bailonggang Passenger Terminal, which is worthy of celebration.

And after Xiao Gong went back to his hometown for a blind date last year but failed, Teacher Gao introduced him to a girlfriend who was just assigned to the nurse at the Fourth Factory Health Center last year. The girl was very beautiful and admired the police officers.

Xiao Gong's parents came to Bailonggang to celebrate the New Year. They met the little girl's parents and had a good chat. They planned to get engaged on May Day and get married when they are old enough.

In short, there are constant happy events in this big family.

Staff in government agencies and enterprises and institutions go to work on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, but for most people, the Spring Festival does not end when they go to work on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. According to the custom of Linghai, the New Year is celebrated until the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

Just when the feeling of the New Year had not dissipated and everyone was preparing to celebrate the Lantern Festival, we received a piece of bad news that was difficult for everyone to accept. Comrade Xiaoping, the chief architect of reform and opening up, passed away.

Even Han's mother, who had never cared about national affairs, said with tears in her eyes: "Without Deng Xiaoping, how could we have lived such a good life."

"Comrade Xiaoping's biggest wish is to wait for Hong Kong's return and go to Hong Kong to take a look. Hong Kong will return in more than four months. Why did he leave?"

Lao Ge was even more uncomfortable than Han's mother, and choked up several times while watching TV.

Everyone of this generation has lived a hard life without enough food and clothing, and they all feel grateful to Comrade Xiaoping from the bottom of their hearts. Sister Wei felt equally uncomfortable, holding Xiao Hanhan in tears.

Old Han took a deep breath, stood up and said, "The flag of the United Nations has been lowered to half-mast. I will also go to the ship to lower the flag."

Mother Han calmed down, raised her head and said, "Go quickly."

Comrade Xiaoping passed away and the whole country mourned!

The management committee of the newly renamed development zone organized all party members and cadres to watch the memorial meeting for thousands of people. After watching the live broadcast, Vice Mayor Shen asked all party members and cadres to actively respond to the call from superiors, study Comrade Xiaoping's theory in depth, adhere to reform and opening up, and turn grief into strength for development. economy.

But Han Yu couldn't bear to mourn with everyone. The weather was getting warmer, the eel fry were migrating, and the annual eel fishing battle officially kicked off. As the backbone of protecting the fishery resources in the Yangtze Riverside section, he had to go into battle again.

All law enforcement boats available from the Fisheries Administration, Harbor Supervision and Public Security Bureau were dispatched.

In the past, we fought a "war of annihilation", but now we fight a guerrilla war. The waterfront area of ​​more than 100 kilometers along the Yangtze River is full of battlefields.

"Fish Bureau Fish Bureau, we found more than a dozen fixed nets here, but no boats or people were seen."

"You should hide in a nearby branch."

"Our ship has a deep draft and cannot get in."

"There's no evidence, and it's useless to get in. Let's clear the net first."

"Got it, it seems that's all it can do."

After nearly ten years of "tug-of-war", those who illegally fish for eel fry have become more and more savvy. They will not fish openly during the day. They will hide in the waterway after setting up fixed nets, watching from a distance, and will not catch the current ones for you. Chance.

Even if it is discovered, only a dozen or twenty networks will be lost.

After dark, they all went out to fish wildly.

There are only a few law enforcement boats from the Fisheries Administration, Harbor Supervisor and Public Security Bureau, and the waters to be patrolled are so long. When patrolling, they will not pay attention to that side. Even if they happen to encounter them, they will flee to the other side.

Superiors do not pay as much attention to it as before and invest too little law enforcement force. Involving several districts and counties in two provinces and cities on both sides of the Yangtze River, there was no unified command and no joint efforts, which made everyone exhausted.

Ma Jintao and Yang Yong were now able to take the helm. Han Yu simply organized everyone into two groups. The personnel took turns resting the ship and patrolled 24 hours a day in key waters where ship navigation safety was threatened by illegal fishing.

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight again. Han Yu was woken up by the alarm clock, put on his clothes and got out of the crew cabin.

It was pitch black on the river, with neither fishing lights nor navigation lights visible.

"Fish Bureau, I'll go up and replace Captain Fan. You can sleep a little longer." Ma Jintao walked over from the crew cabin at the back wearing a coat.

"Who can help you check the radar water depth?"

"Look at the landlord for me. He has already gone up."

"Okay, I just have something to do."

The new ship being built in Hanwu will be delivered to Linghai Port for use as a tugboat in the future, and tugboat crews must be trained now.

The "land worker" Xiao Chen that Ma Jintao refers to is an employee of Linghai Port under construction. The reason why he has such a nickname is because his family's land was expropriated by the management committee. He joined Linghai Port Co., Ltd. as a "land worker" Ltd.

It was impossible to catch eel fry without lighting at night. Han Yu confirmed that no one was fishing illegally in the nearby waters, opened the door and walked into the command cabin, turned on the light and took out the phone book from his briefcase.

Captain Fan followed in, yawning loudly and asked: "Xianyu, who are you calling so late?"

"For two foreign friends, it's midnight here, and it's noon over there."

“Use your mobile phone to make international long distance calls!”

"This is Global Communications."

"I know you are Global Communications, I mean international long distance calls should be very expensive."

Han Yu found a number that he had never called before and explained: "The phone bill is not cheap, but this is because it is a business matter, not a private matter. The city leader asked me to contact you, and the telephone bill management committee will reimburse you."

Captain Fan asked curiously: "Is it attracting investment again?"

"Um."

"What kind of business are you recruiting this time?"

"Agent recruiting seafarers for overseas assignment."

Captain Fan is a native of Linghai. He is very concerned about the construction of the Linghai Development Zone. He stays on the boat every day and knows many things. He lit a cigarette and asked with a smile: "Didn't Ningning say that there is a teacher in your school who has experience in this field?"

"Teacher Wu from our school has a student who works as an agent in Dongguang. At that time, I wanted to ask Teacher Wu to introduce me to a foreign ship. But the agent was in the skinning business, and there were too many intermediate links. How much money could the crew make?"

After sleeping for several hours, my mouth felt bitter.

Han Yu took a sip of water, thought about it and said: "Besides, there are too many uncertainties when looking for an agency. Linghai Vocational High School once conducted seaman training. It did well at the beginning, but then it failed. That's because They can only send seafarers to several intermediaries in Donghai, Ningbo and Dongguang, and they have no own overseas dispatch channels.”

Captain Fan has been running ships for decades. Although he has been running on the river, he does not know anything about foreign ships. He subconsciously asked: "Contact the shipping company directly?"

"Domestic shipping companies have their own crew teams, and many large shipping companies are also engaged in outsourcing seafarers. Finding them is similar to finding an agency."

"Are you planning to find a foreign shipowner directly?"

"How can I have the energy? Besides, I can't do this business just by making a few phone calls. What's more important is that we not only need to carry out seafarer training, but also attract investment. To put it bluntly, the intermediary company must open in our development zone and tax It must be paid to the development zone, and the foreign exchange generated by sending sailors overseas must also stay in our development zone.”

"Invite foreign friends to come to our Linghai to set up a shipping agency?"

"almost."

"You are busy with big things, I won't disturb you anymore."

Captain Fan yawned again and walked out of the command cabin wearing a cotton coat.

Han Yu watched Captain Fan leave after a long night, picked up the phone and made a call according to the number in the phone book.

The first time I used a mobile phone to make an international long distance call, I thought it would probably not go through. Unexpectedly, I dialed and waited for a while and the call was connected.

"Hello, may I ask who you are..."

The other person spoke English and was fluent.

Han Yu quickly said: "Sister Shen, I am Han Yu from Binjiang!"

Shen Rulan was stunned and asked in surprise: "Xianyu, why did you remember to call me?"

"miss you guys."

"Missing us, you wouldn't want to trick us back and catch us again, right?"

"Sister Shen, you are really good at joking. Are you okay over there?"

"It's okay. It's not that great, and it's not that bad either."

"Where are Brother Zhang and the child?"

"The child has gone to school and Ah Sheng is at home. You wait, I'll call him."

Zhang Asheng also didn't expect that Xianyu would contact him. He ran downstairs, took the phone and asked, "Xianyu, you are a busy man, how come you have time to call us."

International long distance calls are too expensive, so even if your employer reimburses you, you can't waste your phone bills.

Han Yu didn't want to be polite anymore and briefly explained that he was transferred back to the Linghai Public Security Bureau and that the Linghai Development Zone was attracting investment.

"You want us to go back and open an agency and engage in overseas sailor assignments?"

"I think you have an advantage in doing this. Sister Shen speaks English so well. She has worked in an agency and has dealt with many shipping companies abroad. Brother Zhang, you have been on a foreign ship like me and now you speak English. Not bad, doing this is your old profession for you."

It's so hard to find a job in Canada.

Shen Rulan and Zhang Asheng were unwilling to work in Chinese restaurants or small supermarkets. If I want to open a Chinese restaurant like others, I feel that it is not interesting and risky.

The two of them were worried about wasting their time, but they immediately became energetic after hearing what Xianyu said.

"Xianyu, it shouldn't be a problem for us to contact the shipowner. The key is that domestic seafarers don't speak English well, so this business may not be easy to do."

"But domestic seafarers are hard-working and very obedient and easy to manage."

“No matter how hard you work, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the language.”

"Our development zone is jointly conducting seafarer training with Binjiang Shipping College. Next, we will strengthen language training."

"You train while I look for the ship owner outside. If you put it this way, we don't necessarily have to go back."

"I didn't ask you to come back. How can you contact foreign shipowners if you stay in China? But if you are really interested, you can't not come back at all. After all, you are responsible for the business. You know best what kind of crew members foreign shipowners need. You can consider it. Come back and open a company, have a good talk with the training institution, and let the training institution train crew members who can go out in a targeted manner."

"Invite investment?"

"almost."

"Are there any preferential policies?"

"Of course. If you only act as an intermediary, you can only make money from the intermediary. If you want to make more money, you can invest some money and do training together. Opening a training class is not a factory, and you don't need such a big space. , there are preferential policies in terms of land and taxation.”

Zhang Asheng was a little excited and said with a smile: "There are a lot of procedures to go through for training in China."

Han Yu said without hesitation: "Don't worry about the procedures. Our development zone management committee can take the lead and introduce you to jointly run a school with Binjiang Shipping College. By then, you will be both the principal of the seafarer training school and a successful overseas person who has returned to China to invest."

"Why do we need to jointly run a school with your Binjiang Shipping College? Can't we run it ourselves?"

"You can run your own school, but in this way you can only train ordinary seafarers. It is different if you jointly run a school with Binjiang Shipping College. Binjiang Shipping College not only trains ordinary seafarers, but also trains senior seafarers. It is the best way for your overseas dispatch business. It’s wider.”

"If we do it, how much investment will we need?"

"You know the prices in China. How much does it cost to buy a piece of land to build an office building and a teaching building? And you can make money by running training courses. If you think the investment is too big, our development zone can use land as a shareholding, or even I can inject capital into you.”

Returning to China now is different from what it used to be in China. Now you are a foreign businessman and the company you run is a foreign-invested company.

A joint venture with the local government is equivalent to a partnership in business. Shen Rulan and Zhang Asheng were thinking that the partnership business would be difficult to do. Han Yu struck while the iron was hot and said: "Sister Shen, Brother Zhang, if you are interested, you can come back and investigate first. We will develop The District Investment Promotion Bureau has an investment promotion office in Donghai, and I will arrange for someone to pick you up when the time comes."
