My name is Hu Wenhai, Hu is Hu who is nonsense, Wen is the text of Wenxin carving dragons, and the sea is the sea rich in the four seas. I'm a time-traveling reborn, and I think I'm in a bit of trouble!

Hu Wenhai and Director Sun looked at each other and smiled bitterly, the latter moved his mouth, and finally pulled him to turn around and walk out of the booth, found a place where no one was, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Hu, do you see if we can take it away, and now we have signed a letter of intent for fifteen or sixteen ships." With the production capacity of our factory and Bochuan ship, 600,000 tons is already the level of the sky. If you sign the contract and don't have time to build it, don't say that you will lose real money if you smash the signboard!"

Hu Wenhai lowered his head in contemplation and was silent.

……

At the booth of the Koreans, there were basically no high-level leaders showing up today, and all the middle-level and low-level salesmen were guarding. Of course, the original business talks are also these people, and the big bosses only show up and sign when the final decision is finalized. However, discerning people can still see that in the past few days, there has been an undercurrent in the exhibition.

Tokyo is the largest city in Japan, and in a few years, it will be the "most valuable" city in the world. The surface of the economic boom and financial bubble must at least be shiny. The recession of the manufacturing industry has brought about a spring in the service industry. Tokyo Bay, where there is some scenery, is now full of beautiful seaside cafes.

With a sandy beach surrounded by carbonized wood and a fresh sea breeze blowing from the Pacific Ocean, it is a pleasure to sit in Tokyo Bay and look out at the cityscape of Tokyo.

Especially today's weather is quite good, the wind is beautiful, the sky is high and the clouds are light. Although it has entered October, there is a rare warm current passing by. Blowing away the gloom of autumn.

The blue sky and the roaring waves. Seagulls fly freely in the distance. Occasionally, beautiful young girls in sailor suits would laugh – if you could ignore their elephant legs.

Tokyo is a place that makes you want to stay.

"Ahsi! Damn the sun! And these damn Japanese!"

"Well, manager in Beijing, complaining won't solve anything. Lee Jae-yong put down the coffee cup in his hand and looked at the other four people sitting at the table.

It's the best location for a large beach café, and no amount of beautiful scenery and comfortable weather can soothe the brows of these Korean elites.

After a few days of fermentation after the opening of the exhibition, the trend of Sino-Japanese cooperation has become more and more obvious. The cost advantage of the Chinese in the construction of low-tech ships under 20,000 tons is enough to make the South Koreans desperate. And the high end of the shipbuilding industry. Ships such as large-tonnage tankers or LNG are the domain of Europeans and Japanese.

The newly developed shipbuilding industry of the Koreans is facing a dangerous situation of being caught between the top and bottom.

In particular, Mitsubishi not only directly went to the market to pull business to the Chinese, but even claimed that it could transfer the construction technology of 60,000-80,000 tons of ships to China, which shocked South Koreans. Needless to say, this range is the current mature business scope in South Korea.

If the Chinese master advanced shipbuilding technology, with their current cost advantage, the South Korean shipbuilding industry may face serious challenges.

"It's been a few days, I want to hear from you, do you have any information about the Chinese that you can share?"

Lee Jae-yong's words are earnest. There is no trace of his domineering attitude as the business manager of Hyundai Heavy Industries, the leader of the Korean shipbuilding industry.

"I would like to ask you to be sincere and united, open and honest, once China's shipbuilding industry rises. It will be a serious threat to all of our businesses. Li Zaiyong looked around at everyone with a resolute expression: "I'll make a statement first, if you can provide effective information, Hyundai Heavy Industry can let out a part of the order as a reward, what do you think?"

"I agree!" Park Jae-kyung unbuttoned the first button of his shirt and leaned back in his chair: "Samsung Heavy Industries can also take out a part of the order depending on the importance of the information." ”

"Daewoo Heavy Industries can too. ”

"Halla is fine. ”

"Han Jin...... Agree. ”

Even Han Jin, who had the smallest amount of business, agreed to this method, but Li Jaeyong was not very satisfied with it. Because even if it is such a big benefit, no one has a happy face.

This seems to indicate that no one has a decisive source of information at their disposal. But despite having such a bad premonition in his heart, Lee Jae-yong still asked.

"So, who can tell us what is the origin of this Dagang shipyard and Xinke Heavy Industry, and how they got involved with the Japanese?"

The five people at the table looked at each other, but no one said a word for a while.

Li Zaiyong couldn't believe it, looked at them helplessly, and sighed with a wry smile: "Why, no one in our five major Korean consortia can get any news in China?"

"I know a little. The speaker was Kim Eun-hee, the business manager of Daewoo Heavy Industries, a heavy industry company with a very long history, ranking third in the Korean shipbuilding industry, but the first in terms of history.

It is not surprising to say that Daewoo Group has more channels than other companies in cultivating government relations.

"I don't think it's conclusive information, but that's all the information that the Daewoo Group can find. Kim Eun-hee put his hands on the table, which seemed to add some convincing to his words: "Dagang Shipyard is one of the largest shipyards in China, with an annual production capacity of 400,000 tons. In 1981, it undertook the construction of a ship of Bao Yugang, the king of Xiangjiang Ship, which meets the classification standards of Lloyd's Register of Shipping, and is currently operating normally without obvious quality problems. ”

Park Jae-kyung frowned, and shouted a little impatiently: "Manager Jin, these materials don't need to be specially collected, isn't this the situation of Chinese propaganda these days?"

Lee Jae-yong also frowned slightly, Kim Eun-hee said that basically the information on the brochure distributed by the Chinese booth, this kind of promotional materials, how can it be specially collected.

Kim Eun-hee didn't care about Park's rudeness in Beijing, and continued indifferently: "In addition to Bao Yugang, the king of Xiangjiang ships, Stanley Ho has also built several new ships in Chinese mainland. One of the three ships launched this year was built by this new branch heavy industry. The origin of this new heavy industry is very strange, and Stanley Ho in Macau does not know much, it seems that its predecessor was a company called Bohai Shipyard. Why did it change its name to Xinke Heavy Industry? He didn't know much either. ”

"But we've got some information from some sources. It seems that this new technology company has a very deep background......"

"Some channels?" said Lee waved his hand. In Kim Eun-hee's unsolicited eyes, he said helplessly: "Okay, regardless of the news channel, can you elaborate on this rather deep background?"

Kim Eun-hee dug into his coat pocket, then placed something on the table with a click.

"Battery?"

"The rechargeable battery, a new product launched by Motorola in the United States, is an aqueous lithium-ion rechargeable battery with excellent performance. Kim Eun-hee nodded.

"What does this have to do with ST Heavy Industries?"

"Actually, we have reason to be skeptical. It is likely that ST Heavy Industries is a subsidiary of ST, which supplies water lithium battery batteries to Motorola. And the news from 'some sources' shows that ST has a Chinese military background behind it. ”

"So, this is an act of the Chinese government?" said Mr. Lee, whose face was gloomy.

China's role in the international community is peculiar today, and as a socialist country, it has become the top seed player in the United States. Although China is not economically developed, on the side of the free world camp, if you really want to be a business entity, I am afraid that the Chinese state-owned enterprise group that owns an entire country is definitely the front row player.

It really takes courage to fight such a behemoth.

"Nope. Kim Eun-hee had a strange expression: "Legally, this is a private company. ”

"Oh, there are private companies in China?" Park sat up straight in surprise.

Kim Eun-hee shrugged helplessly: "Chinese mainland is an information black hole. We don't know anything about it. ”

"But judging from the promotional materials, Dagang Shipyard is a state-owned enterprise in China. ”

The five people at the table looked at each other. I feel like my head is a little underwhelmed.

A socialist private enterprise with a military background, a large state-owned enterprise, and a large conglomerate that is one of the largest in Japan.

What is hidden behind this, it is really confusing to be able to make up a million-word suspense novel. Sadly, none of the five people who needed to solve the mystery had the surname Sherlock Holmes, nor the surname Edogawa.

"Okay, let's put that aside for a moment. Lee gritted his teeth and made closing remarks: "No matter what happens under the water, we need to reach a consensus that this exhibition is likely to be a test of China's official power." Two scouts of the path, behind whom most likely there is a permanent member of the UN Security Council, this is terrible, we must prevent the Chinese and Japanese from colluding to enter the international shipbuilding market, otherwise our South Korean shipbuilding industry will lose its greatest competitive advantage. ”

"China is reforming, and they will pounce on any smell of dollars. The only thing we agree on is that they must not be allowed to gain a foothold. ”

After Lee Jae-yong finished speaking, everyone present nodded with a sinking face.

If Japan is alone with rapidly rising labor costs, it naturally does not need to worry, and if it is a country with low technology and no ability to open up the international market, it naturally does not need to worry. The problem is that China and Japan have become a big problem for South Koreans.

"So what can we do to drive the Chinese back to their backcountry?" Park Jae-kyung looked a little anxious, and simply asked bluntly.

"I have a plan. Li Zaiyong said in a deep voice: "It depends on whether you have the courage or not." ”

"Manager Li, tell me about it?"

"Here's my plan. ”

……

At Narita Airport in Japan, with the warming of relations between China and Japan in the 80s, exchanges gradually increased. As Tokyo's main international airport, there are more and more Chinese here.

Although they are both East Asians, it is still relatively easy to distinguish between Chinese and Japanese in this era.

The people who come to Japan from China are mainly official and business people, like the army of buyers and buyers thirty years later, and they have not seen a single monkey hair in these years.

And the dress of Chinese officials is indeed a bit criticized. The uniform style of suits and the embarrassing mass queue are a bit out of place with the busy, trendy Narita Airport.

For example, now, a discerning person can know at a glance that this is coming out of the pick-up gate and is exactly another Chinese public service team.

"Chai Lao, slow down!"

In the team, an old man who was obviously not too old. With his age-disproportionate legs and feet, he quickly walked out of the pick-up channel.

He was markedly different from the public servants in the line behind him. He wore a dark blue jacket. Inside the jacket is a white plaid shirt and a dark purple tie. Despite his gray hair, his eyes under the tortoiseshell glasses are still bright.

Behind him, a "young man" in his forties couldn't keep up with him, and hurriedly pulled his suitcase to catch up with him.

"Xiao Liu, come and see, where are Xiao Sun?"

Out of the pick-up port, the old man stopped abruptly. He took off his glasses, wiped them and put them back on, glancing around as he spoke.

"Director Sun, they-"

The "Xiao Liu" behind the old man had a much stronger look in his eyes than him. It was easy to find Director Sun and his party holding the sign.

"Chai Lao, I found them, look there!"

"Oh!" The old man looked in the direction of Xiao Liu's finger, and sure enough, he found a familiar figure: "Hurry up, go quickly!"

As he spoke, he took another big stride and walked over at a pace not fit for his age.

"Chai, Chai Lao, why are you here!"

Director Sun was holding a makeshift tracing sign, and he himself had been staring at the pick-up gate, and it was easy to see the Chinese team with obvious targets.

But when he saw the man at the head of the line. Still almost screaming.

"What, do you think I'm old and can't walk?" Chai Lao's eyes widened. The opposite side suddenly softened into a noodle.

"Then how can you, you are not old at all!" Director Sun was a spirit, and he almost swore by the heavens.

"What about Hu Wenhai's kid?" Chai Lao glanced behind Director Sun, and immediately frowned.

"Mr. Hu is at the exhibition, and no one can be staring at him over there. When you and the team are arranged, you will be able to see him at the end of the exhibition in the evening. ”

"Hey, why wait for the evening, I'll go see him!" Chai Lao was about to leave as he spoke, and was finally stopped by Director Sun.

"Chai Lao, Chai Lao!" Director Sun saw the sweat in his head, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Hu is very busy during the day, even if we go, we can't speak." Comrades have a hard journey, go to the hotel to rest first, and see you in the evening is the same!"

Director Sun and Xiao Liu next to Chai Lao persuaded each other again and again, which dispelled Chai Lao's passion, and then pulled the team to the Chaomi Hotel, waiting for the night to come with peace of mind.

The sales staff of Xinke Heavy Industries and Dagang Shipyard dragged their tired bodies for a long time and finally returned to the Shiomi Hotel where they lived.

There are a lot of people who can understand Japanese in Dagang, but most of them were learned in Manchukuo, and now these people are in their fifties, to say the least. Director Sun turned the factory upside down, and finally gathered the current team.

From time to time, there are a few young people in their twenties in the team, who must be the sales staff of Xinke Heavy Industry and the social recruiter of Yishui. Hu Wenhai's domineering attitude of recruiting people really made Director Sun greedy.

However, now, whether it is an uncle or uncle in his fifties, or a young man in his twenties, when he returns to the Shiomi Hotel, his face is full of exhaustion.

Hu Wenhai asked them to arrange for them to dine at the restaurant of the Shiomi Hotel, while he stayed in the hotel lobby. It's not that he has no appetite to eat after a busy day, but he sees Director Sun with an anxious face.

"Director Sun, what's wrong? I didn't receive the domestic team?" Hu Wenhai couldn't help frowning a little worried when he saw his expression.

"Received, I'm here to pick up Mr. Hu, Chai Lao is here. Director Sun's expression was serious.

"Chai Lao-" Hu Wenhai was a little inexplicable at first, and then repeated: "Chai Lao!"

He asked in disbelief, "That old chai from your ship?"

Director Sun nodded silently.

Hu Wenhai couldn't help jumping to his feet and glared: "Just kidding, I'm afraid the old man will be seventy-four this year!

The name Hu Wenhai of CSSC Chai Lao is also thunderous, this is not that he knew it before he was reborn, but he only heard this name after he was reborn.

Chai Shufan, Chairman of China State Shipbuilding Corporation, former Director of the Sixth Machinery Department and Secretary of the Party Leadership Group. In the field of shipbuilding, no, not only in the field of shipbuilding, but in the field of heavy industry as a whole, this designer who can be counted at least half of China's heavy industry, the founder of the shipbuilding industry.

Chai Shufan is an introduction faction. Early years Soviet 156 project. As deputy director of the State Planning Commission, he is a key figure in charge of the implementation of steel and chemical heavy industry projects. Seventies and eighties. After resuming his work, he presided over and participated in the 43 program in the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and he was involved in the introduction of large fertilizers, large ethylene and heavy steel rolling equipment in China.

Even the introduction of Spey engines back then had his shadow.

In the 80s, he personally persuaded Bao Yugang of Xiangjiang to hand over six 100,000-ton ships worth 100 million tons to Chinese shipyards for construction, opening up the Hong Kong and Macao markets of China's shipbuilding industry for the first time.

He personally took charge of the process of promoting the transformation of the Sixth Machinery Department into an enterprise, and was the first department to complete the transformation of the Ministry of China.

Hu Wenhai wants to open up the situation in heavy industry and shipbuilding, and this is the existence that seems to be the legend. Suddenly, the gods descended to earth. That's a bit overwhelming.

"Let's go, Chai Lao is waiting. Director Sun was also full of helplessness, and pulled Hu Wenhai into the elevator.

Chai Lao personally opened the door for Hu Wenhai and Director Sun, and his face did not show the tiredness of the journey at all, but his face was a little red. He was the only one living in the small room, and the salute was placed on the table, as if he had not yet had time to open it.

"Sun Wenxue, you kid has finally come to knock on the door. This is Hu Wenhai, right? You two come in!"

Hu Wenhai looked at the seventy-four-year-old man with a high collar, although the skin on his face had sagled and fallen, his hair was full of silver and thin. But at this moment. His eyes burned like a young man in his twenties and thirties.

Director Sun's name is Sun Wenxue, and no one has called him so directly in this name for a long time. He touched his nose. Get out of the way and invite Hu Wenhai into the room first.

There were already three chairs in front of the desk, and there were even three cups of steaming tea on the table.

Chai Lao didn't care about his identity, warmly invited Hu Wenhai to sit down, and then invited him to tea. Although they are all simple and polite, they make people feel like a spring breeze.

This is not the vanity satisfaction of politeness and compliments, but the intimacy and admiration that naturally comes from personality charm.

"Old Chai don't be busy, otherwise I'll be too guilty. Hu Wenhai was restless, crying and laughing, he really couldn't afford such treatment, and he lost his life.

"Hehe, good. Chai Lao finally sat down beside him, and asked with a smile: "I'll just call you Comrade Xiaohu, how is it, how is the harvest at the exhibition today?"

Hu Wenhai unconsciously straightened his chest and said with a smile: "It's not bad, the letter of intent signed at present is about to be 600,000 tons." Although it is mainly a small ship of about 20,000 tons, there are also a few bulk carriers of 30,000 tons, thanks to the example and cooperation of Xiangjiang, and thanks to the foundation laid by Chai Lao for the shipbuilding industry over the years!"

"Haha, you guys did a good job yourself, you don't have to pat my ass!"

That's what Chai said, but the eyebrows that smile are not eyebrows, and the eyes are not eyes.

"I'm going to retire next year. Chai Lao's expression was full of time: "I didn't expect that before I retreated, I could still see the hope of the rise of China's shipbuilding industry!" Comrade Xiaohu, I brought all the princes under the China Shipbuilding to Japan this time, I don't mean anything else, my old man doesn't have to do it anyway, he is here to support you!"

"Your plan is good, it's very good! I've also read your giant general section shipbuilding method, it's a good technology, and it's a technology that can change the entire industry! As for your project with a loan of one trillion yuan, I put this old face and brought you a deputy director of the State Economic Commission, and you can talk to him! Don't worry, although I am going to retire, I still have a little more face! However, if this money comes down, I will ask the Dagang Shipyard for a favor, and we must complete the dock project of Xianglu Reef!"

"Chai Lao—"

Director Sun, oh, that is, Sun Wenxue in Chai Lao's mouth, lowered his head when he heard this. Speaking of which, the serious economic crisis facing Dagang Shipyard is mainly caused by the 100,000-ton Xianglu Reef super large dock project. If it weren't for this, how could Dagang Shipbuilding Heavy Industry, a super-large enterprise with 20,000 people, cause such serious consequences because of a shipowner's abandonment of ship.

Unexpectedly, Chai Lao not only did not criticize his approach, but still unswervingly supported him to carry out the project.

Hu Wenhai smiled and nodded: "Chai Lao, don't worry, the Xianglujiao Dock Project not only has to be done, but I don't think it can stop at 100,000 tons, I think it will be at least 300,000 tons!"

Hehe, if you don't have a level of 300,000 tons, how can you fit the Silence fishing boat in the whole field! )
