The urbanization level of Jibei Province is not comparable with Liaobei Province, most of the prefecture-level cities in Liaobei Province are industrial cities, Jibei Province is just the opposite, most of the prefecture-level cities are agriculture-based, and the cities dominated by agriculture are rural areas to put it bluntly, and now it is approaching the New Year, the rural markets are very lively, and many local specialties Fucheng can not see at all.

Ma Ming and the three of them bought a lot of New Year's goods in the market, red mushrooms are the best for stewed chicken, and more than half a foot of ginseng is just for soaking in wine, Ma Ming also wants to buy a half-meter-long big fish in Chagan Lake, but he is afraid of soiling the luxury car, so he can only sigh at the fish.

The three of them really dare to spend money now, according to the company's regulations, in addition to tickets and accommodation fees for official business trips, each person will be subsidized 30 yuan per day, this money is not a small amount, if you go on a business trip for a month, it will be 900 yuan, which is higher than the salary, and there are more benefits to following Liu Lang on a business trip, he pays 300 yuan per person out of his own pocket, which is considered to be used to purchase New Year's goods for them, and they can buy whatever they want, and take it home to their wives and children if they don't buy it.

With such a generous boss as their backing, in addition to working hard, the rest is to buy things.

Ma Ming and the three went shopping, Liu Lang, Wang Zhendong and Sun Hu were not so leisurely, although Liu Lang did not attach much importance to this trip to Jibei, but some preliminary work still had to be done, the three of them went to the Provincial Electric Power Bureau, learned about some of the situation, there was Wang Zhendong, the "deputy minister" of the Ministry of Industry, the director of the Electric Power Bureau also had to personally greet him, and also reported to Liu Lang several people about the situation of the Jibei Thermal Power Plant.

Half a month ago, Jibei Province issued a bidding document at the fair, and several companies issued a cooperation intention in half a month, of which four companies are quite powerful, the island country Liyou Motor Co., Ltd. and West Germany Siemens jointly bid for the 400,000 kilowatt generator set project, the island country Zhili Pipe Co., Ltd. and West German ABB Company bid for two kilometers of core pipeline forging and processing projects, and the island country Liyou and Siemens also bid for ten kilometers of high-voltage transmission lines and the construction of three substations.

In addition to these four companies, there are also other companies, such as Italy and the Netherlands, and what is more interesting is that a private company called Delong Electric Appliance Company in Guangdong Province also wrote a bid, saying that it can get 100 tons of carbon structural steel at a low price.

Of course, this private enterprise power bureau will not consider it, as a state-owned enterprise, they are not short of money, the main thing is to ensure quality and formality, who knows where their steel comes from.

Obviously, the main competition for this project is between the island country and West Germany, and it is better to have the bidding of one country's enterprises in a unified manner, if one project belongs to the island country and the other project belongs to West Germany, then it will be difficult to coordinate in terms of unified management.

The reason why the two countries should be given priority, the main reason is that they have a very good relationship with the country, needless to say, the island country in the seventies and the country when the establishment of diplomatic relations with a kind of atonement mentality, the then prime minister of the island country Tanaka has repeatedly publicly expressed his reflection on that period of history, in order to atone for the sin, they also help China in many ways, interest-free loans, technical support, etc., SMIC used the wafer production line is bought in the island country, it can be said that the relationship between China and Japan in this era is definitely a honeymoon period.

West Germany established diplomatic relations with China at about the same time as the island countries, both in the early seventies, of course, at this time Germany was still two countries, West Germany was called the Federal Republic of Germany and belonged to the capitalist camp, and East Germany was called the GDR, which was a "camp" with China Therefore, after the establishment of diplomatic relations with West Germany, the relationship for many years has not been close to the neighbor of the island country, but after China's reform and opening up, West Germany seized the opportunity, Volkswagen took the lead in cooperating with China, and now it has formed a company, and the Santena car has become the standard configuration of Chinese governments at all levels.

A few years ago, under the lead of Liu Lang, West Germany Andrews Company entered the domestic machine tool market, in just three years to make a lot of money, from a third-rate manufacturing enterprise with only a few dozen people to now have more than 200 people in the medium-sized manufacturing enterprises, Andrews Company's success has inspired other enterprises in West Germany, coupled with China's unswerving reform and opening up strategy, so that they can be completely reassured, following Volkswagen, Andrews Company, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Siemens and other well-known large companies have also invested in China.

It can be said that West Germany and the island countries are now two important partners of the country, and the degree of intimacy is better than that of the United States. Thermal power stations are often high-tech infrastructure by enterprises in these two countries, and there may be some projects that China can do by itself, but the quality is definitely not comparable to theirs, which is the advantage of having advanced technology, and can only watch these big opportunities to make money by them.

Of course, the general small project is not eye-catching, only the bidding price of more than 10 million US dollars will they shoot, the amount of this project in Jibei Province is very large, the internal bidding price of the power bureau is expected to reach 30 million US dollars, of course, this is the expectation of Jibei Province, the final bidding price may be lower than this, but there is no doubt that this project has become the largest project in Jibei Province after the reform and opening up, and the entire Jibei Province attaches great importance to it.

Jibei Electric Power Bureau made a detailed report to Wang Zhendong, this is the role of the "deputy minister", if it is replaced by Liu Lang himself, even if the other party knows this prodigy, I am afraid he will not say it in such detail.

"Director Wu, you must also know that Fucheng has become a special industrial zone, this is Liu Lang, the chairman of Fucheng North Industries Group, you must also know his name!"

The director of the Jibei Provincial Electric Power Bureau is called Wu Wenyong, a department-level cadre, half a level behind Wang Zhendong, and Wang Zhendong is only 45 years old this year, it is absolutely not ordinary to be a deputy minister at this age, and Wu Wenyong certainly cannot be taken lightly.

"That's that, who doesn't know Liu Lang? A few years ago, I was like a thunderbolt, the establishment of the North Industries Group was written on the internal reference, I was admitted to an American university, and I want to serve the motherland after returning from my studies, I know these things, I really can't imagine that we can produce a genius like Mr. Liu in the north!"

Wu Wenyong smiled.

"Director Wu, Minister Wang is the commissioner of the Ministry of Industry in the Special Industrial Zone, responsible for coordinating industrial matters, this time we came to Jibei Province to find some work, such as pipeline welding, we North Industries Group has the ability. ”

Liu Lang's words made the other party stunned.

What do you mean?

"That's the case, we North Industries Group has mastered a world's advanced welding technology, which can make the strength of the weld exceed the strength of the original material itself, I believe that this technology has not even mastered West Germany, as for the island country is not good to say, but the two companies you said must not have, the advantage of this welding process is that the cost is very low, other people's steel pipes must be formed at least two meters at a time, with this welding technology, one meter, or even half a meter is no problem, and the cost is reduced by at least more than fifty percent. ”

Liu Lang gave a brief introduction.

“………！”

Wu Wenyong blinked, reacted for a while and understood, it turned out that this Liu Lang also wanted to participate in the bidding!
