Rebirth of science and technology to rejuvenate the country

Sonar said with a smile: "Uncle, remember to open my present when you go back."

After returning to the room, Yuan Xia opened the birthday present that Sonar gave her. Inside the box lay two strings of simple pottery bead bracelets, and a card was placed underneath: "Uncle Xiao Xia: Happy birthday! This is The bracelets I made myself, you and uncle each make a string, don't get confused."

Yuan Xia picked it up and took a closer look. On the beads at the interface, there was a word "Xing" on one, and a word "Yuan" on the other.

Yuan Xia laughed, it's something only a little girl can do, at his age, Xing Yi and himself still wear a string of beads?

Yu Xing came over: "What did Sonar send?"

Yuan Xia picked up the string of beads with the word "far" and handed it to him: "The couple bracelets from Sonar, one for each person. Do you wear it?"

Yu Xing picked it up and looked at it, then smiled and said, "It's really a little girl. Huh, is it still engraved?"

Yuan Xia looked at him with a smile: "You seem to understand very well. She didn't remind me, I haven't noticed yet."

Yu Xing put on the bracelet and said, "Your is my name?"

"Yeah." Yuan Xia nodded, and showed him the beads.

After Yu Xingyi read it, he put the bracelet on Yuan Xia's left hand: "Then put it on."

Yuan Xia looked at the beads on his wrist, it was juxtaposed with Yu Xingyi's wrist, and it looked a little nice: "Is it too obvious?"

Two people who have never been adorned at the same time wear exactly the same bracelet, which will definitely attract the attention and discussion of the company's employees. Originally, their single identities are enough to make people imagine.In fact, I am not afraid of the speculation of the company's employees, but I am afraid that the relationship between the two of them will be used by competitors in the future, which will affect the company's image.

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows: "Then I will wear it."

Yuan Xia looked at the beads in his hand and said, "I'll pick them tomorrow."

Yuan Xia's worries were not superfluous. Yu Xingyi wore a bracelet, which really attracted the attention of many people. After all, it was too inconsistent with Professor Yu's previous image. Fortunately, he didn't wear it together.

On a Friday in July, Yuan Xia and Yu Xingyi, who had just returned from summer vacation, worked overtime at the company until after ten o'clock in the evening before leaving get off work.

After going downstairs, Yuan Xia asked, "Are you going back today?"

Yu Xingyi yawned: "I won't go back, just sleep in the dormitory."

The two returned to the dormitory, Yuan Xia went to take a shower first, and said to Yu Xingyi who was sitting in front of the fan reading a book after coming out, "I'm done, you go take a shower."

"Okay." As soon as Yu Xing stood up, he suddenly heard a loud exclamation from outside, followed by the sound of knocking basins and buckets, and someone screamed strangely, looking very excited. He asked suspiciously, "What happened?" What's wrong?"

Yuan Xia opened the door and walked outside, only to see a white light rushing straight up in front of her eyes, and then burst into bloom in the sky above her head, it was dazzling, someone was setting off fireworks, it seemed that some happy event had happened .

Xiao Yunsheng from the next door also came out and said excitedly, "Yuangong, didn't you go home tonight? Did you watch the live broadcast just now? Beijing's Olympic bid was successful, 2008!"

"Really? Great!" Yuan Xia laughed, no wonder everyone was so excited.

As soon as Yu Xing heard that the Olympic bid was successful, he hurried out: "The Olympic bid was successful? The 08 Olympic Games? Great! Great! After so many years of anticipation, we can finally host the Olympic Games."

Yuan Xia was lying on the side of the fence, looking at the colleagues who were setting off fireworks downstairs, everyone was in high spirits, and some people praised that those who bought fireworks had the foresight to prepare fireworks in advance to celebrate.

It seems that this is a sleepless night, it is so late, and so many people are still awake waiting for the result.No wonder, everyone has been looking forward to the Olympic Games for many years. The last time the bid for the 2000 Olympic Games was lost to Sydney, the Chinese have been studying for many years. This time, they finally got their wish. How could they be unhappy.

Many people came out, and everyone gathered in the hallway to celebrate and chat with each other, venting their excitement.

Even though Yuan Xia has witnessed the Beijing Olympic Games with his own eyes, he still feels happy, revisiting history and witnessing China's gradual progress to glory, how can it not be exciting.

In December of this year, a major event related to traveling far occurred. After years of negotiations, China finally successfully joined the World Trade Organization.

This means that China will further open its domestic market to foreign capital and foreign businessmen, and it will also promote China's advantageous industries to go abroad and enter foreign markets.

At present, it still has a certain impact on Xingyuan. Although the tariffs on components imported by Xingyuan from abroad will be reduced, the tariffs on imports of foreign mechanical products will also be reduced, and the competitive pressure on Xingyuan will increase.

At least for now, Xingyuan has no spare capacity to develop overseas markets. After all, the domestic construction machinery industry cannot be regarded as an advantageous industry.

But Yuan Xia is not too worried, Xing Yuan will eventually explore and conquer overseas markets.

The year 2001 was also a crucial year for Xingyuan. The company completed the audit and document preparation for listing, and submitted an application for listing to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in May.

If all goes well, it will be available this year or next year.

This year's Chinese New Year, Yuan Dong went back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year, Chongyang took his girlfriend to travel to Yunnan to gather scenery, Yuan Chun brought his one-year-old son back to Shaoxing for the New Year, Yuan Xia and Yu Xingyi went to Beijing to celebrate the New Year.

The second elder is in good health, and Yu Zhenxing will have his 80th birthday next year.The old man said that a life of seventy is rare since ancient times. He has lived to an octogenarian age and is quite content. He has a wish to fulfill when he is [-], and he wants to go to Chongqing to revisit his old place.

Yu Xingyi naturally agreed, saying that he would ask for leave to accompany his parents to Chongqing.

Yu Zhiwen said: "It doesn't matter if you don't ask for leave, I will retire next year, and I will go with my parents when the time comes."

Back in the room, Yu Xingyi couldn't help but sigh with Yuan Xia: "I can't believe it, my dad is [-], my sister is going to retire, and I'm getting old too. Sometimes I don't dare to take pictures Mirror, afraid to see wrinkles on the face."

Yuan Xia could hear his loneliness, looked at his face, and kissed him: "Where are there any wrinkles? He is still very young and handsome, but he has a few white hairs. Professor Yu, are you a little worried? But I think, even if you are gray-haired, you must be a handsome and refined old man."

To be honest, Yu Xingyi has a well-proportioned figure, a straight waist, and no wrinkles. He only has some laugh lines at the corners of his eyes when he smiles. He looks much younger than his actual age. His profound knowledge and insight have added to his inner temperament. , Wherever he goes, he is an eye-catching handsome guy.

What's more, he is not afraid that he will grow old, what he is afraid of is that he will not be able to see him grow old, and he will not allow this kind of thing to happen again.

Yu Xing held Yuan Xia in his arms, and rubbed against his face: "Fortunately, I have you."

Yuan Xia clung to his arms and said: "In the future, we will also become two gray-haired old men like our parents. This is the greatest happiness in my life."

Yu Xing thought about that picture for a while, and couldn't help but smile, he could live according to his own wishes for the rest of his life, and have a soul mate who would accompany him for a lifetime, so what regrets there is!

During the Spring Festival in Beijing, Yuan Xia also met with Si Hongjin. The two exchanged some industry information. When it came to the heavy-duty truck chassis, Si Hongjin said: "Did Volvo take another order? Otherwise, how could it be?" push customers away?"

Yuan Xia said: "I guess so. But the old customers who have been cooperating with us for so long don't have to ask for prices and fail to do so. They can communicate with us well. Could it be that they don't want to cooperate with us in the future?"

Si Hongjin said: "I heard that Volvo seems to be building a factory in China this year. Could it be related to this?"

Yuan Xia thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Even if they build a factory, they won't be able to put it into production in the past two years, and they will get next year sooner."

Si Hongjin laughed: "The speed of your company's development is really enviable. The other party may want to cut your profits and reduce your competitiveness by raising prices. It's just that you simply abandoned it and chose another company's chassis. .But even if you choose another chassis, it should be more expensive than theirs, right?"

Yuan Xia still finds it hard to understand: "It's a lot more expensive. Our profit is less, but they haven't made any money, what are they trying to do?"

"How could they not make any money? They must have other customers." Si Hongjin said.

Yuan Xia couldn't help thinking of Doosan. Doosan's chassis was also imported, but it wasn't Volvo before. Could it be changed to Volvo now?Just pay attention next time and you'll know.

If it is for Doosan to give up Xingyuan, an old customer, it makes sense. After all, Doosan is much larger than Xingyuan, and of course it is a bigger customer.

"They're still making a lot of money, but you're making less money. Look, you're the one who's losing out." Si Hongjin spread her hands.

Yuan Xia nodded: "I can almost figure it out."

Shortly after the Chinese New Year, Xingyuan's shares were approved and could be officially listed.

Yuanxia set Xingyuan’s listing date on April 4, Yu Xing’s first birthday, and issued a total of 16 million shares, with a face value of 5000 yuan per share and an issue price of 1 yuan per share.

The opening price of the day was 18 yuan, the closing price was 16.58 yuan, and the turnover rate on the first day was 53.42%.

Xingyuan has been successfully listed, and the company will not worry about the source of funds in the future.

On the day when the stock was listed, Xingyuan happened to be in Guangzhou to participate in the Spring Canton Fair.

Yuan Xia didn't go to Guangzhou, he was watching the stock market in Yuecheng, but he asked someone to go to Doosan to check the facts.

According to employees' telephone reports, Doosan's large mechanical chassis all use Volvo's.And Doosan also launched a small cement pump truck, the chassis is Volvo.

This confirmed Yuan Xia's conjecture, it really was Doosan's fault.

It is reasonable for Volvo to abandon Xingyuan and choose Doosan. After all, Doosan has a much larger market share than Xingyuan.

Yuan Xia didn't bother to care about it anymore, he decided to choose Mercedes-Benz to cooperate, even if Xingyuan has a self-developed heavy truck chassis in the future, he still has to purchase imported chassis, because there are customers who are willing to pay more for imported chassis.

Mercedes-Benz is no worse than Volvo, and the price can be lowered if the long-term cooperation continues.

Time will tell whether Volvo was right to choose Doosan in the end.
