Chapter 755: The Power of Public Opinion
The contents of these newspapers, without exception, are all related to the Paris metro project.
One of the newspapers has a very clear point of view, pointing out that if the Paris Underground is replaced with a subway locomotive manufactured by Group C, it will be an absolute failure, and the London Underground project should be used to replace the best subway locomotive in the world.
A newspaper also directly pointed out whether there was a transfer of interests between Pavard and Group C, and otherwise, why did they purchase directly from Group C.......
After reading these few newspapers, Grudy's face gradually changed, and he was keenly aware that it was probably people behind the scenes that were driving these things.
Could it be the Jiuzhou Metro Company......
After speculating in his heart, he realized that this was a great opportunity for himself and the entire Siemens Vehicle Group, and perhaps to repair the relationship with Jiuzhou Metro.
So, Grudy immediately made a series of arrangements.
Siemens Rolling Stock Group has a relatively large influence in Europe, and there are also some channels, under the deliberate arrangement of Grudy, several well-known European media have joined in, and a large number of publicity, especially from a professional point of view, it is pointed out that the subway locomotives produced by Group C can only barely be regarded as first-class in the world, that is to say, only the quasi-first-class level.
As an international metropolis, Paris has such a huge subway system, and it should use the world's first-class, or even advanced, metro locomotives.
Many media in France, including those in other European countries, have reported on this incident, and this matter has become more and more intense......
London Underground.
It's one of the oldest and largest tube systems in the world, and the whole London Underground has been completely renovated compared to what it used to be, and it's almost impossible to see a single old tube locomotive anymore.
The various subway locomotives running in this huge subway system are all brand new, very beautiful and fashionable subway locomotives.
Today, the metro system welcomes a different group of guests, all French, seemingly officials.
They are very low-key, accompanied and led by the relevant personnel in London, and are riding and experiencing this new subway that has just been in operation.
"Well, that's good. ”
"The environment inside the car is very good, and the operation is very smooth. ”
“.……”
These Frenchmen, having personally ridden and felt these metros, did not hesitate to praise them, and they spoke highly of this new metro.
The London escort proudly introduced the new subway to them, and told the French people that this is definitely the best and most advanced subway in the world, and that they were all designed and developed by Jiuzhou Metro.
These Frenchmen stayed in London for two whole days before going back, conducting in-depth research, and after returning, it is estimated that a detailed research report will be formed.
These days, Pavard is under a lot of pressure.
The newspapers outside were overwhelmingly reporting, and although he guessed that someone might be behind the plot and promotion of the matter, he had no time to care.
Some newspapers explicitly questioned whether there was a trade of interest between him and Group C, which made Pavard Alexander anxious.
That's not a good thing.
Not to mention that he himself is not very clean, even if he himself is very clean, it is estimated that it is difficult to maintain his innocence under such public opinion.
In the past few days, he wisely interrupted the previous negotiations with Group C, and at this cusp, he did not dare to contact the people of Group C again.
On his desk, there are several newspapers, all of which are very influential in France, and these newspapers are more or less full of articles related to the Paris metro project.
As he was thinking about how to deal with the situation, his phone rang, and it was from his immediate boss.
After answering the call, Pavard took out his handkerchief, gently wiped the fine cold sweat on his forehead, then straightened his suit and tie and went to his boss's office......
……….
Shenhai City, Jiuzhou Industrial Group.
Ma Jianwei happily knocked on the door and entered Tang Fei's office, and as soon as he came in, he said loudly: "Boss, this fire has been burned." ”
Ma Jianwei knows very well that this matter is promoted by the boss behind the scenes. A few days ago, the boss called Harry in front of him and gave him detailed instructions.
Harry's performance was also very good, and he secretly contacted several more influential media outlets, which published articles one after another, which was like a fuse, completely igniting the powder keg.
Tang Fei saw that Ma Jianwei was so happy, and simply told Ma Jianwei a message he had just received, "Old Ma, Paris officially announced the Paris subway replacement plan, a total of 110 subway locomotives will be replaced, and they made it clear that they will adopt the method of public bidding, and welcome major subway locomotive manufacturers to go to the bidding." ”
"Really, great!"
Ma Jianwei was completely happy, and the replacement plan was officially announced, which showed that it was impossible for these subway locomotives to be purchased directly from Group C.
Open bidding, Ma Jianwei has full confidence.
The subway locomotive produced and manufactured by Jiuzhou Metro Company is better than its competitors in terms of quality and performance, and since it is an open bidding, the chances of winning for Jiuzhou Metro Company are very large.
"Boss, then I have to go back to Qingjiang City now, make all preparations, and participate in this bidding. ”
"Okay, let's go back and prepare. ”
Tang Fei also did not retain Ma Jianwei.
Now that the Paris Metro has decided to adopt a public tender, it is indeed time for Jiuzhou Metro to make some preparations in advance.
Seeing Ma Jianwei happily walk out of his office, Tang Fei thought in his heart, the power of public opinion really should not be underestimated.
Within two days, the world's major metro manufacturers knew about the officially announced Paris metro replacement plan, and a total of 110 metro locomotives were eager to try.
The whole industry is gearing up, and everyone is eyeing this order.
The land of China soon ushered in the Lunar New Year.
After a lively and festive Lunar New Year, Jiuzhou Metro Company also sent its own team, and a group of more than ten people arrived in Paris first.
Jiuzhou Metro Company, which has been standing still, finally took action and made clear its attitude, that is, to compete for this order, which suddenly made other competitors feel more pressured.
None of the competitors withdrew, but Siemens Vehicles was acting in a bit of an anomaly, and it seemed that they had no intention of participating in the bid.
They really didn't send a bidding team, but Grudy personally called Tang Fei and expressed his sincere apologies.
This time, the bidding was completely open and fair.
In the presence of a number of media outlets and representatives of citizens, the bidding for the Paris metro project was held at the Paris City Hall, and a total of four metro locomotive manufacturers, including Jiuzhou Metro, competed.
The whole competition is very fierce.
Two days later, Paris also officially announced that the subway locomotive of Jiuzhou Metro Company won completely with its excellent performance, excellent safety performance, beautiful and fashionable design, etc., and the order for 110 trains of the Paris Metro project will belong to Jiuzhou Metro Company.
Ma Jianwei signed a formal contract with the Paris side on behalf of Jiuzhou Metro Company.
The news came back to Jiuzhou Industrial Group, a jubilation, even Tang Fei was no exception, thinking in his heart, finally fell to Jiuzhou Metro Company, with the order of this 110 trains, plus domestic orders, Jiuzhou Metro Company's development this year will be on a big level.
After the contract was signed, Ma Jianwei attended a dinner in Paris, and then flew back to Shenhai City overnight.
Early the next morning, he walked into Tang Fei's office with a happy face and reported the whole process to the boss in detail.
After listening to Ma Jianwei's report, Tang Fei said: "Old Ma, the order already belongs to us, start production and manufacturing as soon as possible, and deliver the first train as soon as possible." ”
"Well, that's what I thought too. Ma Jianwei is full of confidence.
At present, the production capacity of Jiuzhou Metro Company is sufficient, and the production cycle of this 110 train is also very sufficient, and the delivery can be completed within 24 months from the date of signing the contract.
"Boss, the domestic subway market will gradually become popular, there will be more and more big cities to start building subways, need a large number of subway locomotives, I am ready to transform our No. 2 plant into a vehicle assembly plant......"
Ma Jianwei simply told Tang Fei about some of his plans.
After the adjustment of the production structure, more than eighty or ninety percent of the parts are manufactured by external suppliers, and Jiuzhou Metro Company can concentrate on vehicle assembly.
The area of the No. 2 plant is not small, and it is indeed a very good vehicle assembly plant after a little transformation. Tang Fei agreed: "I don't think there is a problem, you can do it freely." ”
With the consent of the boss, Ma Jianwei became happier and more relaxed in his heart.
With the No. 2 plant after the transformation, the vehicle assembly capacity of Jiuzhou Metro Company will be greatly improved. Ma Jianwei thought in his heart.
Sometimes it really does come in pairs.
Tang Fei was chatting with Ma Jianwei about the order for the 110 train and the future development of Jiuzhou Metro Company, when the phone rang at this time.
This is Zhang Ping calling from the capital.
Zhang Ping told Tang Fei on the phone that Minister Tang was invited.
Tang Fei immediately guessed what was going on, and immediately promised Zhang Ping on the phone that he would leave for the capital early tomorrow morning and go to Minister Tang's office in the morning.
Early the next morning, Tang Fei took Xu Guangming from Shenhai International Airport and arrived in Beijing by plane.
As soon as he walked out of the airport, Zhang Ping had already greeted him outside the airport in person, the two met, shook hands happily, Zhang Ping told Tang Fei that Minister Tang was in the office between 11 o'clock and 12 o'clock and waited for Mr. Tang to come over.
Tang Fei and Xu Guangming got into the car, and the military vehicle left the airport and headed for the military......
