Chapter 0069 Funding the Campaign

"In addition, there are four things that need to be implemented in a timely manner. The first thing is to set up an independent ship power company in the shipyard to be responsible for the production and manufacturing of ship power, because power is the heart of the ship, and the main purpose of this company is to manufacture the world's most advanced ship power, and it is also to provide the most advanced ship power for its own shipyard;

The second thing is to set up a port management company within the ocean shipping group to plan and build the port, focusing on the construction of a dedicated container terminal, if the site is not enough, it can be adjusted from the shipyard, and there can be reclamation to build a wharf, to build a deep-water port wharf with 300,000 tons;

The third thing is that the shipyard will build a new container manufacturing workshop and be ready to expand at any time according to market needs; The fourth thing is to acquire the most advanced shipbuilding steel production enterprises to ensure the best shipbuilding steel for shipyards, and especially important is the smelting and processing of various types of special steel. ”

"I have memorized all the four tasks you mentioned, and I will do them according to your arrangement."

"On the issue of the formation of Ship Power Co., Ltd., I think about it like this, the introduction of the most advanced ship power manufacturing equipment, for senior technical personnel, we must actively introduce, give higher treatment than other enterprises, and retain talents.

In the early stage, we started from imitation, caught up with the level of power of the imitated ship, and then surpassed and took such a path. You have to tell all companies that there are advanced technologies that need to be protected by international patents to maintain a competitive edge, remember. ”

"Wait a minute, I'll take a notebook to record it, don't wait for you to talk too much, it's not good if I don't remember something."

"Okay, I'll get you a notebook to use."

After she got the notebook and pen, she immediately began to memorize the requirements and points that Zhao Weidong had just said, and she kept remembering, and it took fifteen minutes before stopping, remembering more than ten or twenty pages, and after writing, Lingjun handed the notebook to Zhao Weidong and said:

"Take a look, is there anything missing?"

Zhao Weidong took the notebook handed by Di Lingjun, and carefully saw it from beginning to end, but he didn't expect that he had talked about so many things and explained so many things, and it was rare for her to remember so completely, and all the key contents were written down, she really deserved to be a master of finance, and her memory was so good, so he returned the notebook to her and said:

"Well, you have a very good memory, you have written it all down. There is another important thing, you have to remember well, the US investment company will be the focus of our group, increase investment, increase mergers and acquisitions, to find ways to make the US company stronger and bigger, in the United States to strive for the merger of a bank,

You see if the president of the American company is capable enough, if not, readjust a capable person to host, of course, you can also recruit in the United States, and your classmates and friends see if they have trustworthy ability and strong ability to be competent in the American company. ”

"You should know that our current company strength is quite good in the world, you know our political power, it can be said that there is basically none, and now we have a chance to establish a relationship with the President of the United States, can you do it?"

"Of course, now that the president of the United States is Gerald Ford, how can we build a relationship with him? And he's coming to office soon, what's the use of building relationships? ”

"You all know that this president Ford has reached the end of his term, that is, a new presidential election is about to begin, and we can build a relationship with the next president of the United States, right?"

"But now that the president of the United States has not been elected, who are we going to have a relationship with?"

"Right now, it's the time of the U.S. presidential campaign, and we just have to choose the people who are most likely to run for the election."

"Who do you think is most likely?"
