In the lounge, Zhou Jingming was still waiting patiently. Nearly twenty minutes have passed since Li Mingzhe left, and Zhou Jingming felt tired from sitting, so he simply stood up, walked back and forth in the lounge, and then stopped in front of the window again, looking down at the scene below.

As a heavyweight ministry directly under the State Council, the number of employees in the ministry is also among the best in all ministries and commissions, standing in front of the window, Zhou Jingming can just see the parking lot of the Ministry of Machinery, dozens of cars are neatly placed there, except for a few private cars, the rest are all official cars of the Ministry of Machinery.

Among these cars, only a few are domestically produced Shencheng cars, and the rest are all imported cars without exception, and mainly Audi cars, and there are also a few Japanese cars. Those Shencheng brand cars, in a crowd of imported cars, appear particularly eye-catching, on the body shape, Zhou Jingming does not think that Shencheng brand cars will lose to Audi these imported cars, but feel that its retro shape, there is a different kind of beauty.

But the car is not only used to see, but also used to drive and carry people, in terms of power, operation and ride comfort, Shencheng brand car is indeed not as good as these imported cars, this, Zhou Jingming must admit.

"One day, our own cars will definitely surpass these imported cars. Zhou Jingming leaned in front of the window and whispered to himself.

"Xiao Zhou, wait for a hurry. At this time, Li Mingzhe's voice suddenly came from behind Zhou Jingming.

Zhou Jingming hurriedly turned around, "Director Li is here, I'm fine, I'm thinking about something just now." ”

"Come with me, and take you to meet the leaders of the ministry. Lee Ming-che said to him with a smile.

Zhou Jingming's heart tightened, Li Mingzhe is already a cadre at the department and bureau level, and if he can be called a "leader" by Li Mingzhe, wouldn't he be an official of a high-ranking official?

"Good. Zhou Jingming didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly nodded and replied.

"What you are going to see in a while is the deputy minister of our mechanical engineering department, Minister Ma Tianning Ma, he is the oldest one in our ministry, except for Minister Rao. Li Mingzhe said to Zhou Jingming as he walked.

"Just now I told Minister Ma all the plans you proposed, and he praised you very much, and this time I asked you to go, probably to ask about the specific details of those plans. You don't have to be too nervous, Minister Ma is still very kind, and you will answer whatever he asks when the time comes. Li Mingzhe was worried that Zhou Jingming was nervous, so he comforted him like this.

"I see. Zhou Jingming nodded.

The two of them soon came to the door of Ma Tianning's office, and after Li Mingzhe knocked on the door, Ma Tianning's voice came from inside, "Come in." ”

Zhou Jingming took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and walked in behind Li Mingzhe.

Zhou Jingming in his previous life was also received by high-ranking officials, but this time, it seems that he came a little early, and he will inevitably be a little nervous in his heart.

"Minister Ma, this is Zhou Jingming, who I told you about, is now a technician at SAIC Car Factory and a member of the mulberry car project team this time. After Li Mingzhe entered the door, he pointed to Zhou Jingming and introduced with a smile.

"Hello Minister Ma, I am Zhou Jingming. Zhou Jingming hurriedly said respectfully.

At the moment of seeing Zhou Jingming, Ma Tianning was obviously a little stunned, and his face was full of incredulity, he originally thought that the person who could put forward those genius-like ideas must be an old car man with experienced skills and rich work experience, after all, the person who can think of the sales model of franchising must have a deep understanding of the domestic and even the world automobile industry.

But the Zhou Jingming in front of him looks like he is in his early twenties, and his face is still childish, those ideas are actually from this young man?

After a long time, a smile appeared on Ma Tianning's face, and when he looked at Zhou Jingming's gaze, he also changed from the original shock to appreciation.

"You are Zhou Jingming?" Ma Tianning looked at Zhou Jingming with a smile and asked kindly.

"That's right, Minister Ma, I'm Zhou Jingming. Zhou Jingming hurriedly replied.

"Then the plans in these materials are also all you came up with?" Ma Tianning pointed to the three documents on the table and continued to ask.

"Hmm. Zhou Jingming nodded, and did not say something very modest, with Ma Tianning's identity, such words would inevitably seem a little hypocritical to Ma Tianning's ears, so Zhou Jingming chose to tell the truth.

Ma Tianning nodded with satisfaction, and then pointed to the seat next to him, "You two sit down, I have something to ask Xiao Zhou." ”

When Li Mingzhe and Zhou Jingming heard this, they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sat down.

Ma Tianning picked up the three documents on the table, "I have already read these three materials, the franchise model and the cooperation with Volkswagen to develop the engine, I think it is very reliable and desirable, and this memorandum of understanding signed with Bosch to carry out technical cooperation in engine injection systems, which is also very good." ”

Zhou Jingming smiled a little flattered, "Thank you, Minister Ma, for affirming my work." The signing of the memorandum of understanding with Bosch was not authorized by the ministry because of the tight time, and I hope that Minister Ma will not blame him for this matter. ”

"I'm grateful that it's too late for you, how can I blame you? In this matter, you and Xiao Li did very right, and you made a quick decision and had a wide vision. Ma Tianning applauded.

Subsequently, Ma Tianning sighed again, "We are all old, some things are not as far as you see, the future of China's automobile industry, still have to be handed over to the hands of your young people, and when you encounter a similar situation in the future, as long as it is helpful to China's automobile industry, just let go and do it boldly, we old guys will shelter you from the wind and rain in the back." ”

After listening to Ma Tianning's words, Zhou Jingming hurriedly stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Ma Tianning, "Then I will thank Minister Ma for your support, I will definitely live up to your expectations." ”

Ma Tianning's words undoubtedly gave Zhou Jingming a sword of Shang Fang, giving him the power to cut first and then play, in this social environment at that time, it definitely gave Zhou Jingming the freedom to let go of his hands and feet.

"Okay, okay, you sit down, if it's really a thank you, it should be me to thank you. Ma Tianning waved his hand, "I still have a few questions for you, sit down and talk about it." ”

In the next dozens of minutes, Ma Tianning asked Zhou Jingming several questions, and he had more understanding of the concept of franchising, and his appreciation for Zhou Jingming became more and more obvious.

"Xiao Zhou, I would like to take this opportunity to ask, do you have any unique views on the localization of Santana's car in the future? After Ma Tianning figured out the concept of franchising, he asked again on a whim.
