Chapter 304: This Is Your Private Money
Two cars left the capital and drove all the way north, toward Changping County in the north.
Cao Zhisheng and Tang Mingtai finally found an opportunity to ask Li Dayong clearly about the identities of the several groups of people.
After all, some things are better to do after asking clearly.
"Li Dayong, as you said, that classmate Pei is an international student from Hong Kong, and her brother participated in this year's National Day ceremony and intends to invest in a machinery factory in the mainland?"
"Yes."
"Then those two fellow villagers of yours, the factory has more than 20,000 employees, and there are dozens of collaborative processing factories, and there is a great demand for new sewing machines?"
"Yes."
Li Dayong said, "My brother, who grew up with me, said that now there is capital, market, and technology, but the east wind is missing."
Cao Zhisheng and others were somewhat embarrassed, because the three of them were classified as the important condition of "technology," but the sewing machine they researched was a "second-class product."
However, Li Dayong said very cleverly, "I asked, although our new sewing machine is indeed not as good as imported goods, it is no different from imported goods below 4,500 revolutions. Most of the time, factory workers are around 4,000 revolutions, so it's no problem to use them together."
"Sigh~"
Cao Zhisheng sighed, "That is still a gap. Wanting to fundamentally catch up with imported goods cannot be solved by design. The key is that material performance cannot reach it. 8,000 revolutions per minute, the reciprocating mechanism cannot bear it."
Duan Zixiong and Tang Mingtai were also silent. The pride generated by "filling the domestic gap" a few days ago was completely shattered in front of the gap.
They are all technical personnel. A gap is a gap, and it cannot be wiped out by blowing two cowhides.
But at this time, Li Dayong said, "My brother said that as long as the gap is not large, we must use domestic goods, otherwise our domestic goods will never develop."
"..."
The three technical men were stunned for a moment, and Tang Mingtai couldn't help asking, "Can your brother decide? What kind of sacred person is he?"
"My brother is a student in the Economics Department of Jingbei University, but he worships a teacher named Zhang Qiyan, who seems to be very famous in the economics circle. In addition, he also knows classmate Pei's brother."
"Oh~, then I have to ask for advice later."
Tang Mingtai remembered Master Tong's eyes not long ago and felt more and more that the young man was not simple.
Two cars arrived in the north of Changping County and drove into a deserted machinery factory. The sign "Changbei Machinery Factory" at the factory gate was mottled and dilapidated, as if silently showing its story of wind and rain.
Tang Mingtai is from Changping and introduced it familiarly, "This machinery factory was launched during the Great Leap Forward. It was very prosperous a few years ago, but it expanded blindly and was crushed by loans. Coupled with personnel changes above, it lost its production plan..."
"However, there are nearly a thousand employees in the factory, and most of them are old workers of seven or eight years. The technical level is no problem. Now as long as there is a production plan, the factory can come alive. If someone can really invest, it would be even better..."
Tang Mingtai explained while looking at Hao Jian, Li Ye, and others, and then he soon noticed a situation.
Although among these people, Hao Jian's style is the most sufficient, and Pei Wenhui's status is the most special, all of them intentionally or unintentionally take that young man named Li Ye as the main one.
This is not a question of standing, but after seeing some problems, they all looked at Li Ye intentionally or unintentionally, as if waiting for him to make up his mind.
"Is the disciple of an economics big cow really so awesome?"
Tang Mingtai's second uncle is the deputy director of the office of the Changbei Machinery Factory. After listening to Tang Mingtai's intention, he stared at his nephew for a long time before holding back a sentence.
"Little Tai, there are no seven or eight relatives in this factory. You can't do that heartless thing."
"Second uncle, what kind of person I am, don't you know? Can I pit you?"
"Sigh, people nowadays don't know their hearts. Two days ago, Big Dazha's father rolled up more than 70,000 and ran away with his sister-in-law. The factory can do a batch of work at most. If it is pulled away and not paid..."
"..."
Tang Mingtai kept giving his second uncle eye signals, but his second uncle obviously didn't believe him.
After all, Tang Mingtai himself is from the Nancheng Machinery Factory No. 3. What is he doing here from so far away?
Finally, Hao Jian showed those two bundles of cash again.
At the Nancheng Machinery Factory No. 3, these two bundles of cash were only shown to Director Yu, which changed their attitude.
And at this Changbei Machinery Factory, it received even more enthusiastic attention.
The big factory director came out in person, held Hao Jian's hand and wouldn't let go, as if as soon as he let go, the two bundles of cash would become refined and grow legs, and run away by themselves.
Hao Jian smiled and said, "Director Wang is too polite, but I still have to say the ugly words first. I saw that your factory was a bit cold when I came, so can you still complete the production task?"
"How can I not?"
Director Wang's face stiffened, and he shouted to the outside, "Assemble everyone for me."
"Dudu dudu~"
The urgent whistle soon spread throughout the factory, and then the extremely cold factory moved. Workers came out of the factory building in an orderly manner and lined up neatly on the open space.
Li Ye and others were very surprised. This collective organizational ability felt like it was following the army.
Tang Mingtai whispered, "This Director Wang is from the army, and the Changbei Machinery Factory is also a key unit for military-to-civilian conversion. There are quite a few retired soldiers received by the factory every year..."
Li Ye finally understood the reason.
He knew this situation in his previous life.
Some units are willing to receive retired soldiers, and some receive fewer.
These retired soldiers like to hold together, with mixed reviews, but when they really need to be on the front line and work continuously, that spirit of "needed, not retreating" is very admirable.
"Factory Director Hao, our factory is a team that can fight hard battles. As long as you treat us sincerely, I guarantee to do the best for you. If the quality is not good enough, I will smash it myself."
"I believe this."
Hao Jian looked at the silent workers and quietly exchanged a look with Li Ye.
Li Ye nodded slightly.
Then Hao Jian said, "If the new sewing machine can meet the standard, I am willing to pay in advance to purchase. In addition, I know a friend from Hong Kong who wants to invest in the mainland. I don't know if you can communicate with relevant departments and talk about joint ventures?"
"..."
Director Wang stared at Hao Jian for at least ten seconds, and suddenly dragged his arm and dragged him toward the cafeteria.
"Come, come, come, let's brothers have a good drink today..."
"Director Wang, let's talk about business! Joint ventures are very troublesome. If the above doesn't allow..."
"It won't be disallowed. Which joint is not smooth, I will take the bedding and live in their unit directly. It concerns the rice bowls of 916 employees in the whole factory. Who dares not to be smooth?"
"..."
Looking at Hao Jian and Jin Peng who were dragged away by Director Wang, Li Dayong and others couldn't speak.
Why is the difference between factories so big? The scale of 3,000 or 4,000 people at the Nancheng Machinery Factory No. 3 is completely different from the attitude here.
Li Ye said, "Let's find a place outside to eat! Let Hao Jian and them deal with that kind of occasion. We are really not good at it."
Cao Zhisheng and others nodded repeatedly. They were indeed not good at occasions on the wine table.
Several people got out as soon as possible and found a collective restaurant outside to eat.
By this time, Li Ye let Pei Wenhui show her cards with Cao Zhisheng and the others.
Pei Wenhui said, "Everything is unknown now, but I can pay a part of the technology transfer fee first, and settle it in full when mass production starts. In addition, if the joint venture can be negotiated, we lack a technical manager and engineers here."
Cao Zhisheng and others didn't speak. Although they were all excited, they were obviously still suspicious.
After all, Pei Wenhui was too young, and her words always lacked weight.
Pei Wenhui added, "The technical manager and engineers are all under the unified management of the Hong Kong headquarters, and the salary is denominated in foreign exchange."
Cao Zhisheng and the three were moved. The technology transfer fee was just fast money, but if the salary was all foreign exchange, wouldn't it be easy to save a sum of money and study abroad?
But Pei Wenhui had long been "pointed out" by Li Ye and said again, "The teachers just mentioned studying abroad. I cannot judge right or wrong, but we can provide you with an opportunity to visit abroad, and then you can look at the conditions we give and compare them. To tell the truth, I think the situation of those students studying abroad may not be very good."
This is the ultimate bait thrown by Li Ye.
Both earn foreign exchange, washing dishes and engineer, which one do you choose?
The wave of studying abroad in the 80s and 90s really mythologized the superiority of the West.
In fact, after decades, many people have made comparisons. Most of the university students in the late 70s and early 80s developed better in the mainland than those who stayed overseas.
Especially those management talents who can speak and are well-rounded are not very popular outside, and they are not doing very well.
It is the science and engineering men like Cao Zhisheng and Duan Zixiong who have technology, knowledge, and are down-to-earth who have done well.
Because refined egoists easily ignore the resources provided to them by the collective and only rely on their own "ability" to "fairly" compete for resources.
I am stronger than you, I am more appreciated by my boss than you, so I should enjoy more and earn more money.
But do you not drink water or eat? Do you not take a car or stay in a hotel?
Regardless of the mainland or outside, the foundation of the whole society is still laborers. Science and engineering men are the most excellent and popular laborers.
As for the management level, the curry men in a certain eastern country are much more rolled than you.
But stay in the mainland, cough cough, it's all quite good.
Tang Mingtai and Cao Zhisheng and others were surprised. How difficult is it to have an opportunity to go abroad now? When will it be their turn, these dull men?
But now, it is sent to their eyes?
Tang Mingtai asked seriously after considering for a moment, "What kind of position is a technical manager? What is the difference from the technician in our unit?"
Li Ye smiled.
"You can understand this. The technical manager in Hong Kong is not a punching bag."
On the way back, Li Ye got off the car with Li Dayong at the Jingbei Institute of Technology.
Then he "announced" to Li Dayong, "If this machinery factory joint venture is successful, you and Pei Wenhui will hold 40 percent of the shares, and I will hold 60, but I must tell you that this is a place to realize technology. If you fail the exam, then this factory has nothing to do with you."
"Brother, what are you saying? That factory was not mine originally. I can't take advantage of you."
Li Dayong was anxious when he heard it. He was grateful to Li Ye for being able to be with Pei Wenhui and was unwilling to owe Li Ye any more favors.
But Li Ye said coldly, "I must give you some motivation."
"The investment money will be deducted from your dividends from Factory No. 7, plus the lawsuit you fought in Hong Kong, and the Ferrari you bought for Pei Wenhui, it cost nearly 400,000 US dollars in total. You have to find a way to make money quickly..."
"..."
Li Dayong was stunned, looking at Li Ye as if he didn't know him at all.
Is it so black?
"Not brother, that Ferrari..."
"I advocated sending the Ferrari. Didn't you drive it secretly? Is it wrong to count it on your head?"
"..."
"I don't think it's wrong," Li Dayong twisted his face and said, "But according to your meaning, am I already a million in debt? And it's the kind of million in pounds, wow?"
"Are you really not understanding or pretending not to understand?" Li Ye said angrily, "I will pay a part of the investment, and Pei Wencong will also pay a part. This is your and Pei Wenhui's private money."
"Pei Wencong will have a wife and children in the future, and Pei Wenhui will have to rely on you."
"..."
Li Dayong instantly felt that he had become tall.
"Mm-hmm, I listen to you, brother. Whatever you say, it will be!" ===== CHAPTER 305 =====
"In the future, Pei Wencong will have a wife and son, and Pei Wenhui will still have to rely on you."
"."
Li Dayong felt himself grow taller in an instant.
"Mm-hmm, I'll listen to everything you say, Brother. Whatever you say goes!"
