Zhang Xingming organized his language and said: "Grandpa, do you have a map at hand? Take a pen and draw the chain of our open sea, from the four islands to Taiwan, and then look at the Indian Ocean, you should have the distance of the US military, right? Connect these places, and then connect them with Taiwan, and you will understand." All our sea routes have been blocked, the oceans have become our de facto exclusion zone, controlled by the Americans, what do you think would happen if there was a war?"

"The biggest shortcoming of our country now is that we have not paid attention to the sea and the navy. Grandpa, science and technology are becoming more and more developed, and the resources on land are being extracted faster and faster, this thing is not endless. The ocean occupies more than half of the earth's surface area, and how many resources are in the ocean? The focus of future development must be the ocean. At the same time, with the development of science and technology, the speed of information dissemination is getting faster and faster, and the world trade is getting bigger and bigger, and shipping will become the most prosperous and convenient mode of transportation in the world.

"European and American countries, including Japan, have long noticed the importance of the ocean and are trying their best to occupy the ocean. Are our seas small? But look at how many of them are in our own hands? How many of the seas that Vietnam, these small Southeast Asian countries, Japan, have invaded and occupied that belong to us?"

The old man learned about Suosuo for a long time, the sound of the water cup moving, the sound of turning over a book, for a long time, the old man said: "What you said is right, we have never thought about this aspect before, and these countries in Southeast Asia are not a matter of occupying a few small islands and occupying some sea areas, they are also an important point in the blockade island chain you said." I was negligent, I always thought that the United States was aimed at the Soviet Union, and it was still friendly to us. ”

Zhang Xingming said: "For the time being, Lao Mei is indeed friendly to us, because if Lao Mei wants to form de facto poles, it must win us over to his side, and several conflicts between us and the Soviet Union are not so simple, although the Soviet Union is indeed not a good thing." However, in general, European and American countries, including the Soviet Union, are quite concerned about a big country like ours, and they will invariably come to restrain our development. Historically, we have been holding them down, and they have just stood up for more than 200 years, and they don't want to be overwhelmed again. ”

The old man smiled and said, "It seems that you know a lot about history, better than mathematics." ”

Zhang Xingming's face was full of black lines.

Sighing, the old man said, "No money." The economy is backward, and everything must be backward. This is also the reason why we are now concentrating on economic development, and only when we have a drum in our pockets can we have the energy to do anything and the possibility of success. Come on, boy, it's up to your generation. ”

Zhang Xingming said: "Don't say that, you have to rely on my father's generation." If we can get it in our generation, it will be a young man. ”

The old man smiled and said: "Yes, yes, I ignored your age, then you can make more money, foreign exchange, we lack foreign exchange, you have to contribute more, foreign exchange is indispensable for the development of the country." ”

Zhang Xingming said: "Okay, you have to work hard. Otherwise, grandpa, the state will take some money and let me go here, and I will help the country earn some foreign exchange. ”

The old man said, "Okay, the $120 million will be given to you in the next few days, so be the capital." ”

Zhang Xingming was dumbfounded and said, "Grandpa, don't you bring this, right?"

The old man laughed and said, "Tease you, this matter is done well, and the country will not lose you." I'll have to report on something else, wait for my news, that's all. "Hung up the phone.

Zhang Xingming put down the phone and wiped the sweat on his head, the old man's joke is a little scary, 120 million US dollars.

Continue to complete the plan, this time to add a lot of factories, this thing is not as simple as recruiting a few people, to do a team has to work for a few months, headaches, there are too few people who can take out their hands. And now everyone is in charge of a bunch, and it is impossible to draw the west to make up for the east, so it will be even more chaotic.

listed the work one by one, and then Zhang Xingming fell on the sofa with a painful sigh, where are the people, where are the people, the middle-level personnel needed are not a small number.

I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided, I don't want to, let's talk about it when Manager Xi and them arrive, and discuss it.

……

The next night, the negotiation team of the investment company arrived in Shenyang, and the government took the people to Benxi and arranged for them to be taken to the guest house of the municipal party committee.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the third day, the three parties of the Development Zone, Benxi Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., and Volvey Company began to negotiate the joint venture in the small conference room of the municipal government.

The development zone came to a deputy mayor, Xiao Tian did not come in person, and Zhang Xingming hid behind, leaving a room for redemption, Benxi Iron and Steel is Zhang General Manager personally came, with an accountant, he attaches great importance to this matter, although Benxi Iron and Steel can temporarily see the development momentum is OK, but the hidden dangers are also very large, there are no advanced products, most of the equipment in factories and mines is aging, the welfare burden is heavy, and the production efficiency is low.

And because of the rejection of the joint venture request of the United States and Japan, the upper face is also very dissatisfied with Benxi Iron and Steel, from time to time the small shoes fly down, the policy has begun to obviously tilt towards Anshan Iron and Steel, although the shelf is still there, but has long lost the style of the first steel in the Far East.

In the last life, because of these reasons, General Manager Zhang went to the United States directly in the name of investment, taking away billions of yuan, the chief accountant was retired, and Benxi Iron and Steel collapsed and began to enter a downward slope.

General Manager Zhang wore a well-fitting suit and sat in a position to speak: "Our Benxi Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., founded in 1909, was once the world's largest steel company, after the founding of the People's Republic of China. ”

"Mr. Zhang, there is no need for the company introduction, let's talk about the details directly to save time. You should know that our small boss is a child of Benxi Steel, and his father is an employee of your company. With a faint professional smile on her face, Xi Shuhui interrupted General Manager Zhang's words softly and slowly.

General Manager Zhang was obviously embarrassed for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Okay, good, respect the opinions of the Hong Kong side, let's talk about the details directly." "You must know that he is a deputy ministerial-level cadre, and it is the first time that he has been interrupted halfway, if it weren't for the fact that the other party is a Hong Kong businessman, it would be possible to slap the table and leave.
