In May, Yuan Xia got the news that Xingyuan had entered the final round of the China Industry Awards. This result did not surprise him, because Xingyuan had won this award this year before.

However, after receiving this award, his life came to an abrupt end and started over again.This made Yuan Xia feel a little uneasy. Although he was very satisfied with the rewind, he didn't want to lose everything now, so he took Yu Xingyi to the hospital for an examination to see if there was any index in their bodies. unusual.

In fact, they will conduct a comprehensive physical examination every six months. This habit has lasted for many years.

Yu Xingyi——At first he felt that the content of the physical examination was too detailed and cumbersome, but as he grew older and saw that his colleagues and friends around him were not often found to have any problems, he gradually lost his voice of objection. for their health.

He is five years older than Yuan Xia, and he hopes that he will be healthy and able to accompany Yuan Xia until he is 80 or 90 years old, instead of walking too far ahead of him.

What is reassuring is that all the indicators of their physical examination are normal, there is no high blood pressure, and no myocarditis. As long as they are not overworked, myocardial infarction should not happen again.

The impact of the epidemic on Xingyuan is not small.Yuanxia has deployed domestic products to replace imports a long time ago, but it has to be admitted that the quality of many imported parts is better than that of domestic products, and slight differences in materials, processes, and technologies may lead to huge differences in product performance.

And it is these small gaps that make most of China's manufacturing industry stop at the low-end, and the high-end, high-profit market is still divided by the United States, Japan and Germany.The problem facing Xingyuan and China's manufacturing industry today is to strengthen the already big market.

For a long time, some parts and materials of Xingyuan still need to be imported, not because there are no French products, but because the customer specifies foreign parts, even if it costs more.

As a result, the development of related domestic accessories is also affected, because it is impossible to obtain feedback and profits from a larger market for product upgrades.

After the outbreak of the global epidemic, the manufacturing industry in Europe and the United States has also been greatly impacted. Many factories have to stop working to fight the epidemic.

The global epidemic has also caused a huge impact on shipping logistics. Many goods are delivered to the port without unloading and transporting, resulting in a shortage of containers and seriously affecting the speed of five or six.

Therefore, many parts that originally relied on imports cannot arrive on time. If customers want to use imported parts, they have to wait for several months or even half a year. In order to save time, they have to agree to use domestic parts.

For example, the chassis of the boom pump truck, Xingyuan has realized the self-produced chassis long ago, but still maintains cooperation with Mercedes-Benz. Using the Mercedes-Benz chassis is 60 million yuan more expensive than Xingyuan’s self-produced chassis, and there are still many customers who are willing Buy more expensive ones.

Now that the epidemic in Germany is serious, Mercedes-Benz's production capacity is insufficient, and sea freight is delayed, it will take at least the first half of the year before delivery.The customer's project was about to start, and he couldn't afford to wait, so he had to agree to use the chassis developed by Xingyuan itself.

The epidemic has boosted the sales of domestic machinery supporting products from the side. I really don't know whether to be happy or worried.

In June, news of workers' strike suddenly came out from the far-flung India branch.The reason is that the domestic epidemic in India is serious. In order to divert domestic conflicts, the Indian government and the media are desperately provoking conflicts against China, which has led to high anti-China sentiments among Indians. They have begun to boycott Chinese products, smashed many Chinese-made products, and banned Many Chinese apps.

The Chinese director of the Xingyuan branch in India was also attacked by anti-China people for no reason. The Indian branch was in a semi-shutdown state due to the epidemic, and now the personal safety of the staff is threatened. Yuanxia asked him to go back to China for vacation. After calming down, go again.

However, the person in charge did not return to the country, but only took a temporary vacation, did not go to work, and tried to go out as little as possible.

He thinks it is easy to leave India, but it will be very troublesome to come to India again.

Yuan Xia had no choice but to make him pay attention to safety.

Shortly thereafter, the two shield machines India ordered from Xingyuan last year were delivered on schedule and sent to India.After the shield machine arrived in India, the Chinese engineer responsible for the installation could not get a visa.

According to the normal process, the Indian customer issued an invitation letter, inviting Chinese engineers to assemble the shield machine.But this time, the Indian client refused to issue an invitation letter, saying that they did not need engineers from Xingyuan.

In fact, the Indian branch here far away can also send invitation letters, but since customers have said so, why should they put a hot face on others' cold buttocks?The only trouble is that there is still 20.00% of the final payment not in hand.

Two subway tunnel shield machines with a diameter of 8.8 meters have a total value of 6800 million yuan, and the Indian side still has 1360 million yuan that has not been paid.

When Tao Yang reported the news to Yuan Xia, he said, "President Yuan, what should we do? Are they trying to renege on their debts?"

Yuan Xia said: "Don't worry, they can't renege on their debts. Since they are not in a hurry, then we don't need to be in a hurry, just don't forget to press for the payment."

Tao Yang expressed his worries: "Do they want to assemble by themselves and take the opportunity to steal our technology?" Yuan Xia laughed: "If they have that ability, I will look up to them in the future."

This is the case with international business. Turmoil in the current situation and regime change are very likely to affect cooperation.

Due to the impact of the epidemic, the global economy has been greatly impacted, and turmoil will occur in some countries, and the business that could be done before may not be able to do it in the future.

Yuan Xia had already planned, so he was not in a hurry to set up factories overseas, because he was afraid that if he invested too much and the policy changed, he would lose all his money at that time.

The foreign epidemic is in full swing, but the domestic epidemic has basically subsided. There are only a few imported cases from abroad and sporadic positive cases.So during the summer vacation, you can still travel domestically.

The three boys in the family went to Tibet for a self-driving tour. This is a place they wanted to go a long time ago, but they didn't go because of various reasons. Now they finally got their wish.

Chongyang also wanted to go on a self-driving trip, but his parents-in-law were still at his home, and the elders also wanted to go to Tibet, so they took a safer way, taking the train to Lhasa on the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, and not going to high-altitude areas.

Yuan Qiu also went to Tibet by train together.

Yuan Xia and Yu Xing didn't go to Tibet. In August, they took time to live in Dali for a few days.They have been busy since the beginning of the epidemic, and now that the domestic epidemic is over, they can finally take a good rest and relax.

Yuan Xia and Yu Xingyi seldom come to live in Dali these few years, but the house is not completely empty. Yuan Qiu, Chongyang and Yu Zhiwen who have more free time occasionally come here to live for a while.

In September, news came from India that the Indian side could not assemble the shield machine, and had to ask Chinese engineers to assemble it.

Tao Yang couldn't help laughing out loud: "President Yuan really knows everything well, they really can't handle the assembly of the shield machine."

Yuan Xia raised his eyebrows: "If they can handle it themselves so quickly, India won't be what it is now."

Tao Yang said: "Then when will we arrange for engineers to go there?"

Yuan Xia sneered: "Let them wait, just say that our engineer is on a business trip elsewhere and is not free now." Tao Yang chuckled: "Good!"

Yuan Xia said again: "When the time comes, let them type the final payment first, and then assemble it for them." "Okay!"

—It was not until October that Xingyuan sent engineers to India to assemble shield machines for customers.

According to the feedback from the engineers, the Indian side actually assembled the shield machine by itself. However, due to the complexity of the structure, the Indian engineers failed, and even lost a few parts, which had to be airlifted domestically.

In November, Xingyuan received a notice from the China Federation of Industrial Economics, asking them to attend the 11th China Industry Awards Ceremony.

Yu Xingyi said: "We didn't participate in the last session. We won the commendation award last year. This time it should be an industrial award." Yuan Xia said: "It should be."

Yu Xingyi asked him: "Who do you plan to let go to the awards ceremony? Or Ni Kuan?" Yuan Xia shook his head: "No, this time I plan to go by myself, you can go with me."

Yu Xing smiled and said, "Okay."

The company's senior executives were a little dazed when they learned that the two bosses were going to attend the award ceremony in person. To be honest, it would be too grand for both of them to go. People in the industry would laugh.

Cui Pingsheng suggested: "Why don't you let Mr. Ni go."

Ni Kuan said, "That's right, Mr. Yuan, or I'll go."

Last time they went to accept the award excitedly, but they only got one commendation award, which made Yuan Xia not even sign up for the 18 selection.Although the possibility of winning the grand prize this time is very high, if you don’t get it yet, it will be a bit embarrassing. So far, Xu Gong Machinery has not only won the commendation award and the industrial award, but also won the industrial award-winning project last year. , Their innovation and performance are no worse than Xu Gong, so it's their turn to win the big prize.

Yuan Xia said: "It doesn't matter, let's go by ourselves, and visit my family in Beijing by the way, President Yu also wants to visit relatives."

In fact, the senior management of the company knew about the relationship between the two of them, but everyone tacitly kept their relationship as if they didn't know, and carefully maintained their relationship.

Cui Pingsheng patted him on the shoulder: "Well then, I wish you all the best! Come back with the big prize."

The award ceremony was scheduled for December 12th, between Christmas and New Year's Day, and Yuan Xia and Yu Xingyi arrived in Beijing on the 27th.

The 26th was Saturday, and they went to the school to visit their son and nephew. The school implements closed management, and students are usually required to stay out of the school as much as possible.If you want to go out, you have to ask the counselor for leave in advance, and it is best not to leave the city.If there is an epidemic in the market, the control will be upgraded and no going out will be allowed at all.

Fortunately, there was no epidemic recently, so Wen Bo and Qian Chongmao still came out, followed Yuan Xia and Yu Xing to have a big meal together.

The two children ordered a lot of food, and when Yuan Xia thought it would be a waste, Wen Bo said: "Dad, don't worry, we can finish eating. We haven't eaten out for a long time, and we don't allow takeaway, we can only eat in the cafeteria .”

Yu Xing said with a smile: "The food in the cafeteria of the two of you is still okay." Qian Chongmao said: "Yes, but I'm tired of eating it too often. I want to change the taste."

Yuan Xia looked at the two children sympathetically: "Order whatever you want, and pack some back later, so that you can satisfy your roommates." "Thank you dad (uncle)!"

Qian Chongmao asked: "Uncle, are you coming to Beijing on business?"

Wen Bo said: "My dad and the others are here to participate in the China Industry Awards Ceremony, this time they will definitely win the Industry Awards, hehe." Qian Chongmao said: "Is this award very famous?"

"Of course, the highest honor in the domestic industry." Wen Bo said.

Qian Chongmao said: "Wow, let's wish uncle the grand prize in advance."

Yuan Xia said with a smile: "I don't know if I can win the grand prize." Wen Bo is full of confidence: "I will definitely!"

The next day, Yuan Xia and Yu Xingyi drove to the ceremony, which was also the venue that Yuan Xia had been to.

The venue was solemn and solemn, and the guests attending the meeting were all elites from all walks of life across the country. Although they were all well-known units, Yuan Xia didn't know these people. Knowing these people, not to mention that the boss of other companies may not come in person.

So he and Yu Xingyi would not appear abrupt when they came to this awards ceremony, because others would not know them, they never participated in private organizations of entrepreneurs, and they had no friendship with those billionaires.

The lottery guest said to a card: "Let me announce the highest award of this conference - China Industry Award. The companies that have won this honor are: Xingyuan Machinery Group...."

Yu Xing grabbed Yuan Xia's hand excitedly: "Great, we won the award!"

Yuan Xia thought he would be very calm, in fact, when he heard this, his hands trembled a little, and his eyes were even moist.He finally got his wish, and together with Xingyi came to receive the highest award in China's industry, witnessed the glory of Xingyuan, the rise of China Heavy Industry, and the industrial miracle created by the Chinese people!

In this life, it is enough to be accompanied by one person!

To be a Chinese is to have no regrets!
