Rebirth of science and technology to rejuvenate the country

China Construction Group has eight branches, distributed all over the country, under the overall planning of the head office, and each business is independent at ordinary times.

Purchasing is actually relatively independent, but the group company will come forward to gather the various bureaus that need to add equipment, and bid for the procurement in a unified manner to strive for the best discount.

The number Zhang Yuanchao said was actually an approximate number.In addition to dump trucks and excavators, of course there are other machinery, such as bulldozers, mixers, cement pump trucks, cranes, road rollers and other large construction machinery. Xingyuan currently only has dump trucks and excavators, so Yuanxia only pays attention to this.

Yuan Xia took the documents and led Zheng Gong and Qin Lin to Shanghai.

CSCEC is a state-owned enterprise. In the past, the equipment should have been purchased from other state-owned enterprises. Now that it is engaged in bidding, it may be because it wants to buy foreign products, hoping to let the other party actively lower the price through competition.

Xingyuan may be the only Chinese private enterprise participating in the bidding, and it is not even considered by China Construction.

But Yuan Xia can't give up, if he impresses a certain leader and is willing to place an order with him, fifty excavators, that is a big order of tens of millions, just thinking about it makes him excited.More importantly, as long as they start, they will be considered by China Construction Procurement in the future.

After arriving in Shanghai, Yuan Xia hurriedly called Zhang Yuanchao to have a meal. The purpose of course was to get acquainted with people from China State Construction Engineering Corporation through him. After all, he hadn't even found a way to bid.

Zhang Yuanchao was also very forthright and said to him, "I'll call my former leader when I get back and invite him to dinner. He likes wine, so prepare some good wine."

Yuan Xia nodded hurriedly: "I understand, I'm ready."

When prices broke through in 88, prices soared, including Moutai. Yuanxia stocked up a lot of Moutai before the price hike, knowing that it would be impossible to save on it in the future.This time, I brought several bottles with me.

The next day, Yuan Xia booked a private room at the best restaurant in Shanghai, and went there early to wait. Sure enough, Zhang Yuanchao led his old leader, Deputy Director Lang, to arrive late.

Yuan Xia enthusiastically shook hands with the other party, Zhang Yuanchao said with a smile: "Lang Ju, I didn't lie to you, Yuan is always not a good-looking talent?"

Director Lang looked at Yuan Xia with scrutiny: "Yes. How old is Mr. Yuan? He looks very young."

Yuan Xia hurriedly said: "Boss Lang and Mr. Zhang can just call me Xiaoyuan. I was born in 62, and I am 32 this year."

Director Lang shook his head: "It doesn't look like it, but it looks like 23."

Yuan Xia smiled wryly: "You are too tender-faced, and you will always be misunderstood. Please sit down, Xiao Qin, please let the waiter serve the food."

Qin Lin hurried to get someone to serve the food.

The waiter brought up the meals that had been prepared long ago, and Yuan Xia poured the wine for Director Lang himself. The other party looked at the bottle in his hand and nodded slightly, obviously satisfied.

After drinking for three rounds, Zhang Yuanchao began to liven up the atmosphere: "Why do I feel that the wine today is more mellow than the one I drank here last time? Xiao Yuan, can you tell which year this wine was produced?"

Yuan Xia took a look at the wine bottle and said, "It was produced in 82."

Director Lang stared at the wine bottle in Yuan Xia's hand with wide eyes.

Zhang Yuanchao said: "This restaurant still has Moutai from 82? The last time I came here to drink, it seemed to be from 92. I haven't heard of it from 82."

"Bring me the bottle to take a look." Director Lang loves wine, so he naturally understands the market of Moutai. Moutai produced in 1982, because of the words "Three Revolutions" on the back label, is commonly known as "Three Revolutions", and the date is still in blue font. With distinctive characteristics of the times, it is now quite valuable for collection.

Yuan Xia handed the wine bottle to Chief Lang.

Director Lang took a closer look and murmured, "Sure enough, it's Moutai that came out in 1982. Isn't this the hotel's bar?"

Yuan Xia smiled and said, "This is the Moutai I brought myself. When the price of Moutai went up a few years ago, I took the opportunity to buy some, and when it came to important occasions, I would bring some with me."

Zhang Yuanchao took another sip and sighed contentedly: "The Moutai in 82 is really extraordinary. You still have the foresight to think of buying wine. Now such a bottle of wine may sell for thousands of dollars."

Director Lang put down the wine bottle, with regret on his face: "Now this wine has been collected, and no one is willing to drink it."

Yuan Xia said: "I don't really understand this, is it very precious? I brought a few bottles over here, and I will bring two bottles back to Lang Ju later."

Director Lang saw that he was so forthright, so he didn't refuse. He picked up his glass and took a sip: "I heard from Xiao Zhang that you are an excavator?"

Entering the topic, Yuan Xia hurriedly said: "Yes, I not only make excavators, I also make dump trucks. Now the company is developing cement pump trucks. The prototype truck has come out and is being tested, but production has not yet started."

Director Lang lowered his eyes and asked, "Which factory are you from?"

Yuan Xia said: "After graduating from university, I was assigned to a steel factory in Jianning. Later, the factory was not profitable, so I took the initiative to leave my job without pay and set up a factory by myself. I used to make some parts, and I started to work independently a few years ago. Research and develop construction machinery, currently there are 6-ton and 10-ton dump trucks, as well as wheel excavators and crawler excavators. This is my business card."

Director Lang opened his eyes, stretched out two handbags to hold the business card, and glanced at it: "Are you a private factory?"

Yuan Xia nodded: "Yes. Last year, our dump truck sales exceeded 2500, second only to the dump trucks of FAW and SAIC."

Zhang Yuanchao hurriedly said: "Lang Ju, I bought some excavators from Xiaoyuan last year. The machines are quite good. Although they are not as good as Komatsu and Caterpillar, they are much better than other domestic excavators and are more durable. No, I added some more a few days ago."

Yuan Xia said: "Our company has always insisted on independent research and development, and has worked closely with Yueda and the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy to strive to produce domestic first-class construction machinery."

Director Lang asked, "What year did you go to university?"

Yuan Xia said: "79 years."

"which school?"

Yuan Xia replied: "Yuecheng University. They majored in mechanical engineering, so they are engaged in this industry."

Director Lang himself also graduated from university, and he has always appreciated scholars. Hearing what he said, he nodded.

Zhang Yuanchao said with a smile: "It's better to study. Only by studying can you make great achievements. Lang Ju, you don't know, Xiaoyuan's family is a family of college students. He has a younger brother who graduated from Tsinghua University and is a PhD student in the United States. He also has a younger sister." I am a graduate student at Harbin Institute of Technology, what school are the other two in?"

Zhang Yuanchao had learned about the situation of Yuan Xia's family from Si Haibo a long time ago. He has been involved in society for many years. He is so shrewd. Naturally, he knows that Yuan Xia's family background can definitely be impressive and can add points. That's why I brought it up.

Yuan Xia added: "The eldest sister graduated from Yuecheng Normal University, and the younger brother is in Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts." Yuecheng Normal University has been promoted to Normal University for several years.

Zhang Yuanchao clapped his hands and said, "That's right, a family of five brothers and sisters, all of whom are from key universities, that's amazing."

Director Lang gave Yuan Xia an appreciative look again: "Your parents are quite good at educating children."

Zhang Yuanchao said: "I heard that Xiaoyuan's father died on business when he was a teenager, and his mother remarried. He invited his grandfather from the countryside to take care of their five brothers and sisters, and earn money by running a small business. With some money, I supported my family and sent my younger siblings to college one by one."

Director Lang showed surprise on his face: "The old man is really amazing."

Yuan Xia agreed: "Yes, my grandfather is very great."

Zhang Yuanchao gave a thumbs up: "The old man is capable, so Xiao Yuan is also capable. In just a few years, the company has grown to this scale."

Yuan Xia took the opportunity to say: "Lang Ju, we came to Shanghai this time because we heard that China Construction would purchase a batch of excavators and dump trucks. Although our company is not too big, we also want to compete. I don't know if we can get to this qualification."

Director Lang couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "The qualifications can be obtained, but I think you have no hope."

Yuan Xia asked: "Why?"

Director Lang said: "Actually, this bidding is mainly to buy imported machines, and to let foreign brands take the initiative to lower prices, so this kind of bidding meeting was held."

This situation was expected by Yuan Xia, and he lowered his eyes: "Since this is the case, then I will go to see the world, and I hope Director Lang can help me win a bidding qualification." After finishing speaking, he filled Director Lang's wine glass and picked it up. Toast him from his own cup.

Chief Lang picked up his wine glass: "Okay, let me help you with this." This task is not difficult, not to mention the face of having two bottles of Moutai.

After dinner, Director Lang and Zhang Yuanchao left. Qin Lin, who hadn't spoken much, said, "Yuangong, are we here for nothing?"

Yuan Xia said, "Let's see."

Zheng Gong regretted: "If you can't compete at all, it would be a pity for those two bottles of good Moutai."

Yuan Xia laughed: "Zheng Gong loves to drink, so you can drink the rest."

Zheng Gong returned to the private room, put away the leftover Moutai, and said, "I want to keep this bottle, maybe the bottle will become an antique in the future."

The next day, Yuan Xia went to Director Lang to get the bidding qualification ticket.

The bidding time was set two days later. Yuan Xia actually knew many leaders of China Construction, but at the moment he was still a stranger to them and had no chance to contact them.

Zheng Gong and Qin Lin knew that this time they came here to accompany them, so they didn't dare to play, and stayed in the hotel honestly, sorting out the materials with Yuan Xia.

It was Yuan Xia who persuaded them: "Zheng Gong finally came to Shanghai, let Xiao Qin accompany you to go out for a stroll, I will do it, I am familiar with these."

Zheng Gong and Qin Lin went out for shopping.

Two days later, Yuan Xia got dressed and went to the bidding venue of China Construction with a folder.

Sure enough, there were many manufacturers who came to bid, and there were also many foreigners. Yuan Xia wore a white shirt and black trousers, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, like a tall and straight bamboo tree, it is no exaggeration to describe it as standing out from the crowd.

The staff of CSCEC sent them a bidding document for the manufacturers to fill in the form, which is used to fill in the product model and unit price.

Yuan Xia carefully filled out the form, and the quotation was similar to the one given to Zhang Yuanchao.

Yuan Xia reckoned that he should be able to pass the first round of bidding, and as long as he could enter the second round of interviews, he would try his best to fight for it.

As expected, Xingyuan Machinery successfully entered the second round of interviews.However, since Xingyuan is an unknown company, the serial number is very low.

Yuan Xia, Zheng Gong and Qin Lin waited until the afternoon before it was their turn.

When Yuan Xia tidied up his clothes and entered the meeting room, he saw that the people inside were already yawning, and he nodded slightly to everyone: "Leaders, hello, I am Yuan Xia from Yuecheng Xingyuan Machinery Company." He looked at the After a while, Director Lang is also present.

As soon as he spoke, the sleepy people became refreshed. The young man was so handsome that it made people's eyes shine.

The middle-aged man sitting closest to Yuan Xia adjusted his sitting posture and looked at Yuan Xia with interest: "Are you the sales representative of your factory?"

Yuan Xia smiled and said, "I am the general manager of Xingyuan Machinery Company. My name is Yuan Xia. The one who travels far is me."
