Chapter 431: The Forgotten Mao Qingzhu
"Brother Qin, help me make another appointment with Microsoft in Seattle, and see if Intel is interested in cooperating with us? Finally, let Chen Fa and Fang Jiange get ready, and come over with the funds next week ......?"
After Hu Wenhai sent Michael Dale away, he turned his head and arranged a lot of work for Qin Kai. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Qin Kai filled the notebook in his hand with a full page, he closed the notebook and suddenly said, "Mr. Hu, the Chinese manager of Loyle Company arrived at the villa early this morning, and I hope to see you." ”
"The manager of the Loyer Company?" Hu Wenhai was a little stunned.
"The Chinese manager, the American manager is still in the company. Qin Kai pondered for a moment, and saw that Hu Wenhai's expression was still a little stunned, so he had to prompt: "That's it, the Mao Qingzhu ...... you found from China the year before last."
"Oh!"
Hu Wenhai suddenly realized that if it weren't for Qin Kai's reminder, he would have really forgotten about this matter.
When Mao Qingzhu was found out from Rongcheng, on the one hand, he needed someone to help him sweep the car company out of the house and cut off the roots of the American conscience enterprise.
On the other hand, Mao Qingzhu is indeed a talent, but he was born in the wrong era. Doing a good deed, I arranged for him to come to the United States and became the Chinese manager of the Loyer Company.
The main job of the Leoyle company is to change hands with Grumman on the introduction of the F14 fighter. The number of imports of a squadron per year, together with redundant and supporting equipment such as maintenance, spare parts and weapons, is $500 million in the first year. Since the second year, there has been a major repair line in China, and the maintenance capacity of F14 has been gradually formed, and the number of foreign exchange uses has declined relatively quickly. By 1987, the budget was only $300 million.
The small blue pill can bring Hu Wenhai a billion dollars in patent fees every year. In this way, there is about 500 million to 700 million surplus funds every year.
This fund is mainly used as a special mobile fund for ST Group, mainly Hu Wenhai himself, to promote the development of projects that are not planned in the budget.
For the vast majority of the time, the money was spent on importing products and technologies from the United States that could not be supplied domestically, at Hu Wenhai's behest. For example, ST Group has used a large number of Motorola 68,000 CPUs in the past two years, and these CPUs were purchased with this money before the ST fab was able to produce its own.
In addition, this money was also used for the miniature turbojet engine in France, and later in Romania for the acquisition of R29 series engine materials.
Although there are many places to use money, it is not easy to spend more than $500 million a year. Most of the remaining funds will be used to introduce equipment and technologies that are needed domestically. This process of spending money is the work of the Loyle company.
There is really no more comfortable job in the world, and the Chinese manager of Loyle's company is the uncle who spends money, which is simply comfortable to the sky. Changing the tragic fate of Mao Qingzhu is somewhat of Hu Wenhai's little feelings, and I hope the world can have fewer regrets.
It's just that since Mao Qingzhu came to the United States, there has never been a problem with the operation of the Loyer company, so much so that he accidentally forgot about this figure who will be a name in the future......
Forgot......
In short, under Qin Kai's reminder, Hu Wenhai finally remembered him.
Hu Wenhai nodded, with an expression of "I haven't forgotten it at all, it's just a test to see if you know this person's name".
"Okay, since Mao Qingzhu wants to see me, let's see me. Hu Wenhai stretched, put on beach pants and a Hawaiian shirt, and strode into the villa.
It's also miserable to say, Michael Dale specially pulled a bus from Texas from Texas to get a beautiful girl who was enough to be in Playboy magazine in order to pat the boss's ass. It's just that the four King Kongs around Hu Wenhai have long been entrusted by their superiors.
I already have a big sister in the KGB, but don't make another CIA flower girl! In the United States, Hu Wenhai seems to be destined to have nothing to do with lace news and "imperialist extravagance."
After a day of sunbathing by the beach, the biggest benefit is to drink a few glasses of cold cocktails, and by the way, Hu Wenhai is also overwhelmed. Back at the villa, I was in a better mood. Especially when there are autumn tigers who can eat people outside, and the air conditioning in the villa is fully turned on.
The heart is calm and naturally cool, and as soon as the air conditioner blows, Hu Wenhai's mood is much better, so much so that he still has a smile on his face when he sees Mao Qingzhu: "Manager Mao hasn't seen you for a long time, your work in Royle Company is of great help to China!"
"It's still Mr. Hu's foundation is good, I drink tea and read the newspaper every day in Loyle's company, and I feel guilty when I get my salary. Mao Qingzhu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "If you don't go abroad, you don't know how high the sky is, and when you go abroad, you know how great Mr. Hu's ability is." ”
"Manager Mao is so polite, I'm embarrassed to say it. Hu Wenhai laughed, and the compliment to Mao Qingzhu was really useful.
What an arrogant person this Mao Qingzhu was back then, in fact, he was somewhat similar to Yu Zuomin in Daegu Village, both of them had that kind of hollow-eyed temper. It's just that Mao Qingzhu was pulled out by Hu Wenhai at the most difficult time, and he opened his eyes in the United States for two years, and now he has worn off a lot of arrogance. Even so, it is not easy to be complimented by him honestly.
"Sit down, how have you been in the United States in the past two years? Have you ever been back to China, how is your home?" Hu Wenhai personally poured him a glass of wine and pushed it to Mao Qingzhu's hand.
When Hu Wenhai also sat down, Mao Qingzhu picked up the wine glass full of ice cubes with his hand, but he was not in a hurry to drink, but showed a look of remembrance.
"The past two years in the United States have really been eye-opening. Mao Qingzhu shook his head with complicated feelings, and sighed: "No wonder how many people have sharpened their heads and want to run to the United States, we as a worker may not earn as much as the American homeless." In terms of material enjoyment, we can't catch up. This is also okay, after all, the United States is a developed country, and the same work earns ten or a hundred times as much as ours. In the past two years, I have been in the United States, and it is as if I have lived a new life. I had the opportunity to go back to Rongcheng twice to visit my family, but I felt a little different from the world. ”
"Don't worry, isn't the speed of domestic development very fast in recent years?" Hu Wenhai smiled and comforted him, saying: "You know the work of the Loyer Company, and in the past two years, China has become more and more active in importing technology from the United States, and it is not necessarily that there is no chance to catch up." Although individuals cannot be as rich as Americans, our population is five times that of the United States, and having one-fifth of Americans rich is already remarkable! Increasing the wages of Chinese tenfold is not absolutely impossible. Otherwise, when Manager Mao returns to China next year, you will see if the wages of the workers are more than this year's. ”
Hu Wenhai said this with confidence, and the domestic prices in '87 were like sitting on a scud, and '88 looked like the second violent inflation in the 80s. At that time, if the wages of workers do not increase at all, then ......
That's going to have to happen.
"Hehe, I hope so. Mao Qingzhu nodded and said with emotion: "To be honest, with Mr. Hu here, I really think that some miracles may not be impossible." ”
Speaking of this, Mao Qingzhu was obviously excited, there was a hint of brilliance in his eyes, and he smiled calmly: "Actually, I have a little idea, and I hope to discuss it with Mr. Hu." ”
"Oh, Manager Mao, just say it, I'll listen. ”
Hu Wenhai nodded, his expression became focused, and he finally entered the main topic of today's conversation. Mao Qingzhu rushed over when he learned that Hu Wenhai had arrived in the United States and couldn't even wait a little time, and it was definitely impossible for him to be busy complimenting him.
Obviously, Hu Wenhai was going to inspect the Loyre Company two days later, and by the way, he would clean up the accounts and business situation of the past two years, so he only notified the Loyer Company two days in advance. If it was an ordinary thing, Mao Qingzhu would have time to talk about it at that time.
Could it be that the Lloyer Company has committed serious corruption and fraud? Does Mao Qingzhu want to sue behind his back?
The Loyle Company was too important for him to allow such a thing to happen.
Mao Qingzhu looked at Hu Wenhai with both eyes: "I want to ask Mr. Hu a question first, is this time to the United States to cooperate with Hughes on a certain project?"
"Oh, how did you find out about this?"
Although China's sale of defense systems to Iraq and Kuwait is not particularly secret, it is normal for such military-related projects to be kept secret.
With Mao Qingzhu's identity, it really seems unlikely that he will know the inside story.
Mao Qingzhu smiled a little proudly: "The news has long been spread everywhere on Wall Street, and I have met some people in New York in the past two years. ”
"What did the news say?" Hu Wenhai frowned, although he was ready to release the news, but he hadn't started to exert his strength, and he didn't expect that the matter had already spread everywhere.
At best, it saved him a lot of trouble. But at worst, it seems that things are getting out of his hands.
"Very few people know the specific situation, and most people only know that Mr. Hu has arrived in the United States. And the most talked about on Wall Street is that you plan to attack the U.S. stock market in order to buy a stake in Hughes and force it to cooperate with you. ”
Speaking of this, Mao Qingzhu frowned for the first time: "As for what kind of cooperation to carry out, there is not much news. ”
"That's ......" Hu Wenhai finally breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that at least from this point of view, at this stage, it should be a wolf with a hemp pole - two are afraid.
Not only Hu Wenhai and the country are facing great pressure from Hughes, Thor and the US government, but the other side is obviously a little overwhelmed by Hu Wenhai's single-handedness and confidence.
"Probably like this, I do have plans in this regard when I go to the United States this time. Hu Wenhai nodded.
"That's good, in fact, I have a plan......" Mao Qingzhu's eyes were bright. (To be continued.) )
