Han Nanbin's categorical rejection of Jiang Zhong's explanation was actually just out of a domineering habit. After training Jiang Zhong, he began to recall that Yu Shiluo had indeed reported this matter to him, and said that Chen Yu's shield machine did have advantages, and the price was cheap, so he could give it a try. He took a newspaper, looked at the content on it, and then asked Yu Shiluo: "Old Yu, it says that experts believe that the technology of Chenyu shield machine is reliable and its performance is not inferior to similar foreign products, what do you think?"

Yu Shi replied sneeringly: "I think it is still somewhat credible. Chief Engineer Liu of the Railway Design Institute and Chief Engineer Ma of China Railway are among the best people in our industry, and these people still have some weight when they speak. ”

"Could they be the nurseries hired by the equipment company and the Chenyu company?" asked Han Nanbin.

Yu Shiluo said: "The equipment company and the Chenyu company must have greeted them, but with my understanding of these experts, if it is an unreliable thing, they would rather refuse to attend than speak with a clear conscience." Although the equipment company is an enterprise of the National Development and Reform Commission, it has no power for these experts, and it is impossible to force them to go to the platform. ”

"In other words, how many brushes does this Chenyu company's shield machine have?"

"Well, I think so. ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I ......"

Yu Shiluo was speechless, boss, I said it a long time ago, okay? Did you refuse without waiting for me to finish, what else can I say? However, the leader said that you didn't say it earlier, you just didn't say it earlier, this is indisputable, arguing is challenging the authority of the leader, do you still want to mix up in the unit? Yu Shiluo sighed in his heart and said: "This matter, it is true that I did not do a good job, and I will review it to the company." ”

"What's the use of reviewing now!" Han Nanbin snorted coldly, feeling a little more comfortable. Subordinates are used to carry the blame, if you don't carry the blame, do you still let me, the general manager, carry the blame? He flipped through the newspaper again, and still said in that dissatisfied tone: "You are not willing to use the equipment of Chenyu Company, and this idea cannot be said to be wrong, and the domestic equipment is unreliable, which is well known." But you should think about the reasons a little bit more than leave so many loopholes for people to catch. What kind of rated force is this, the newspaper said that experts think that there is no difference between 7.5 and 8.1, what is the actual situation?"

"There really is no difference. Yu Shiluo replied honestly.

"Isn't that it!" Han Nanbin said, "How can you find such a reason to prevaricate the other party, and you can't find a better reason?"

Yu Shiluo and Jiang Zhong both lowered their heads, did not say anything, and did not argue, anyway, you have big breasts, so you are reasonable, let's not talk about it, right? Han Nanbin waited for a while, and when he saw the reaction of the two, he understood, it seems that they really can't find a better reason, otherwise they wouldn't have made such a decision. A technical director and a project manager, two people together can not find a reason to refuse Chenyu shield machine, it can be seen that Chenyu's products are indeed very good. At the beginning, I didn't finish listening to Yu Shiluo's narration, so I rejected it outright, which was indeed a bit arbitrary.

Although he understands this, Han Nambin does not feel that he should bow his head and admit his mistake. This is not only about his own face, but also about his impression of the provincial leaders. If the leaders of the province knew that they had put up an oolong and had several national media names them, and then corrected them, then their image as a general manager would be completely ruined. The leader will feel that he is incompetent and has lost people in the province, which is a very fatal thing.

"This Chenyu company has never made a shield machine in the past, right?" asked Han Nanbin.

"No!" Jiang Zhong and Yu Shiluo shook their heads at the same time.

"Can you start with this place?" Han Nanbin prompted.

Jiang Zhong said: "We have considered this issue. We also had a clause when we originally invited the tender, that is, the equipment provider must have experience in successful application. However, recently, the state has issued a support policy for the first set of domestic equipment, requiring all units not to refuse the first set of domestic equipment on the grounds that they have no application experience. The property insurance company has also set up a special type of insurance, stipulating that the loss caused by the use of the first set of equipment made in China will be fully compensated by the property insurance company. ”

"Recently?" Han Nanbin frowned, "Could it be that this policy is for this Chenyu company?"

Jiang Zhong was speechless again, how long is the brain circuit of his own leader, he thinks it is a conspiracy when he looks at everything.

Han Nanbin himself knows that this idea is a bit nonsensical, and the state's support for the development of major equipment is not a matter of one or two days, and it is reasonable to launch this first set of policies. He is also a person who has worked in the industry for decades, and in his heart, he is also in favor of promoting the development of domestic equipment. At the very least, as soon as a certain domestic equipment comes out, the corresponding price of imported equipment can be discounted, which is also a good thing for engineering companies.

Specific to the matter of the shield machine, if he had known earlier that the performance of Chenyu's equipment was no less than that of Pumai, and the price was more advantageous, he might not have asked Chenyu to be excluded from the bidding scope so resolutely, and perhaps he would have given Chenyu a chance. Well, in fact, this is just his current thoughts, and the bigger reason is not how the device itself is, but because this matter will actually cause him trouble.

"Is it possible to contact the media and raise a little objection to this first set of policies? As long as there is a statement in the media, we have room to maneuver. Han Nam-bin instructed.

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Jiang Zhong said, "The first set of policies was launched by the National Development and Reform Commission, and several leaders of the central government also talked about this matter in their recent speeches." If the media wants to raise objections to this policy, they are afraid that they will not dare. ”

"Can't you give money?" Han Nanbin asked.

Jiang Zhong said with a bitter face: "It's hard to say this, maybe some tabloids dare, but like the central media, as well as several major media in the province, it is estimated that they will not dare to take this money." ”

"Then what should I do? You can't let me wipe your ass when you do such a thing, right?" Han Nanbin said unhappily.

Jiang Zhong's alpaca ran wildly in his heart, is this something we made up? If it weren't for your insistence on using Promai's equipment, why would we bother to make such a decision. Now that the matter is out, you let us solve it, how can we have such a ability.

Thinking like this, Jiang Zhong still had to desperately think of a way. He exchanged glances with Yu Shiluo, and then said timidly: "It's really not possible, but there is a way." ”

"Tell me about it. ”

"I wondered, since the domestic newspapers dare not raise objections, what about the foreign newspapers?"

"Abroad?" Han Nanbin was stunned, "What do you mean, do we still have to go abroad to invite reporters?"

Jiang Zhong said: "You don't need us to invite, you can let Pumai invite." Prometheus's sales specialist, Heinzl, is now in Yicheng, and he is also anxious to get us to sign a contract. Let's go and talk to him, just say that the higher authorities require us to use domestic equipment, and we can't bear it. If he wants to make a business, he needs to put some pressure on us from abroad. I've been in contact with him, and this German guy is pretty shady, and I think he'll understand what we mean. ”

"Isn't this a traitor?" Han Nanbin blurted out subconsciously.

Jiang Zhong smiled bitterly. In order to reject domestic equipment, colluding with foreigners to put pressure on the Chinese government, if this kind of thing spreads, it will indeed be called a traitor. But what can be done now, the fault is only that he blindly wanted to use imported equipment at the beginning, and rejected domestic equipment in the name of cleverness. In order to fulfill a lie, you have to make up more lies, and in the end you fall deeper and deeper. If this thing is really done, I am afraid that I will not be able to see people for the rest of my life.

People's thinking is actually very complicated, most people have some patriotic complexes in their hearts, and when they watch the anti-Japanese drama, they are extremely contemptuous of the traitors in it. But when it comes to themselves, many people inevitably have some psychology of admiring foreigners, and they will not refuse to rely on foreigners to respect themselves when necessary.

Han Nanbin is such a person, chatting with friends on weekdays, talking about some unsatisfactory things in China, he also sighed, which has some hatred for iron and steel. But when it comes to purchasing equipment, he is a very resolute foreigner. His reasons are also very good, who makes our Chinese things not as good as foreigners?

Yu Shiluo was also full of helplessness, he knew that Jiang Zhong's idea was very lacking in morality, but now, what the river railway company had to consider was how to protect itself, what national interests, national dignity and the like, it could only stand aside first. He said to the side: "Mr. Han, the equipment company has also gone too far in this matter, which is obviously using national sentiment to kidnap us." Is there anything that can't be properly discussed, and what is it to insinuate like this in the newspapers? Now that we are doing this, they have also forced us to do so, and they cannot blame us. ”

With him exculpating like this, the guilt in Han Nanbin's heart subsided, and he was replaced by anger towards the equipment company and Chenyu company. Yes, it is obviously a trivial matter, but you come to me to say, am I the kind of person who is unreasonable? Relying on your mastery of the mouthpiece of the state, you will make irresponsible remarks about me and refuse to give me a way to live. I'm just looking for self-preservation, so it's not a mistake, is it?

He selectively forgot one thing, that is, Yang Haifan actually came to visit him, but he was closed. If there is no newspaper matter, Yang Haifan will still refuse to ask to see him again.

"Jiang Zhong, you discuss with the company's public relations department to see what kind of caliber to choose to counter these false reports. Heinzl's side, you have to make it clear to him that our country has such a national situation, if they can't find a suitable reason, we can only hand over the order to Chenyu Company. Han Nanbin explained.

"I understand, I'll do it right away!" Jiang Zhong agreed very firmly.
