Chapter 172: Career Choice
Back in the office, Zhou Nan closed the door tightly and immediately called his father back.
"Dad, are you looking for me?" Zhou Nan went straight to the point with a single knife. He vaguely felt that Zhou Ningyu might have encountered a very tricky problem today, and he couldn't make up his mind, so he came to discuss with himself.
At this time, perhaps Zhou Ningyu himself didn't realize that he had regarded his son as his indispensable staff officer and military advisor.
"That's right." Zhou Ningyu lowered his voice and said, "Recently, the municipal party committee has to adjust the two sets of teams of some district and county party committees to vacate the position of the county magistrate of Lanting County. ”
Zhou Nan was taken aback.
To tell the truth, although the director of the public security bureau is also regarded as a real power, but on the whole, compared with the head of the political axe administration of the district and county magistrate, it is still a little worse.
With such an opportunity to be transferred to the county magistrate, Zhou Ningyu was naturally moved. Of course, anyone will be tempted.
And since Liu Xiangdong is willing to hint at him, it means that he has the idea of arranging for him to go down.
But somehow, Zhou Ningyu was always a little emotionally restless. Obviously, it is a good thing to go down, but he feels that it may not be as good as he imagined.
Zhou Nan pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "Dad, what do you mean?"
"I'm hesitating, and I can't make up my mind for a while." Zhou Ningyu sighed, "It's hard to make this decision...... Everything is on the right track at the Public Security Bureau, and if I go down, I will have to start from scratch...... Who knows what the future holds! ”
"Dad, I have to figure it out first. Secretary Liu wants you to go down to be the magistrate of Lanting County, is it because he wants to arrange for him to enter the Public Security Bureau because he has a suitable candidate, and then let you make room for others? ”
Zhou Nan asked lightly.
Zhou Ningyu shook his head and said, "That's not it, the main thing is that Secretary Liu may feel that there is no more suitable candidate for the time being, so ask me if I want to go down and do administrative work in another position." ”
"Since that's the case, then, Dad, I suggest that you don't go down, talk to Secretary Liu, and insist on staying in the Public Security Bureau." Zhou Nan smiled and said, "Dad, you think, you are 46 years old this year, if you are put below to be the county magistrate, although it is nominally promoted in disguise, it is also a little beneficial." But if you want to go one step further, it's too hard, it's too hard. ”
"The county magistrate will work for two or three years, and to put it mildly, he will be the secretary of the county party committee for another two or three years, and then you will basically reach the point, and the possible surname of the deputy hall will be infinitely zero. But it's different in the Public Security Bureau, the Public Security Bureau is a key department, and the situation of the director of the Public Security Bureau and the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee or the deputy mayor abounds. At worst, you can solve the title of assistant mayor. ”
Zhou Ningyu nodded silently, knowing that what his son said was very reasonable, and what he was faintly worried about was actually this. Instead of going to the limelight for a while, it is better to take a long-term view, stay in the public security system honestly and down-to-earth, and even if you boil it, you have to boil out a deputy department level.
"I'll talk to Secretary Liu tomorrow and show my attitude." Zhou Ningyu smiled slightly, "Secretary Liu's niece is getting married, I have a treat tonight, I want to attend the wedding banquet, you go back and tell your mother, you don't have to wait for me to have dinner." ”
"Secretary Liu's niece?" Zhou Nan was surprised, "Who?" ”
"Liu Xiaoyun, I have been working in our bureau for five or six years, and she is still an ordinary police officer, last time I wanted to put her in the sub-bureau below, but I was blocked by Secretary Liu after hearing about it, saying that as long as she is still in office, she will not be promoted...... Secretary Liu is still a very orthodox leading cadre in his bones...... The principle surname is too strong. Zhou Ningyu casually talked to his son about Liu Xiaoyun disappreciably, and then hung up the phone.
Putting down the phone, Zhou Nan was silent. The information in his previous life told him that Liu Xiangdong was indeed a leading cadre with a strong principled surname, a very traditional and even a very conservative surname, very diligent and dedicated, and a clean and simple style, but he was somewhat rigid and arbitrary, and could not listen to different opinions.
But no one is perfect, no one is perfect, as a secretary of the municipal party committee, Liu Xiangdong's shining point is enough to cover up the inhumane little flaw.
Zhou Ningyu currently has a very close relationship with Liu Xiangdong and has become one of Liu Xiangdong's absolute henchmen, which is no secret in Haidu. But Zhou Nan felt that the relationship between Zhou Ningyu and Liu Xiangdong seemed to be missing something.
In other words, he always felt that the one-way relationship between superiors and subordinates maintained by relying solely on Liu Xiangdong's appreciation and trust seemed to be strong but was actually fragile. If you encounter a strong external force, this relationship bond is likely to collapse in an instant.
Bribery and gifts, Zhou Ningyu is very repulsive, and Liu Xiangdong will not eat this set; Only by finding a common interest can the Zhou family be firmly tied to Liu Xiangdong, the secretary of the municipal party committee, and within the scope and premise of his ability and not violating the principles, he can shield Zhou Ningyu from some wind and rain.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Nan's eyes lit up, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Those who are familiar with it know that once this smile rises on the corner of Zhou Nan's mouth, he will basically have a "ghost idea" again. Zhou Nan can always find a central point in the chaotic situation, so as to cut straight in, either take everything into his hands, or pierce this layer of chaos to restore calm.
………… Seeing that the time was about the same, Zhou Nan slowly walked out of the office building of Lanhai Company and prepared to drive home. Downstairs, he met Dong Qiliang and Ma Xiaojing, who were about to ride their bikes home.
Dong Qiliang and Ma Xiaojing both live in the family home of the Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation, and both parents are retired employees of the company.
"Mr. Zhou!" When the two saw Zhou Nan coming downstairs, they both stopped the car and took the initiative to greet Zhou Nan.
"Hehe, go home...... Why don't I give you a ride? Zhou Nan looked at the two and smiled.
"No need, Mr. Zhou, thank you." Dong Qiliang subconsciously smiled and refused, but Ma Xiaojing hesitated, but in the end he didn't say anything. She wanted to be alone with Zhou Nan's car, but Dong Qiliang had already opened her mouth, and in front of Dong Qiliang, she couldn't say anything.
Seeing Zhou Nan driving away alone, Ma Xiaojing felt a sense of loss in her heart.
The car was about to arrive home, but Zhang Ying's call came in again.
"Zhou Nan, I'm back...... Just arrived at the company, you hurry up and come over, all the preparations have been done, the formalities have been completed, next month our Feiteng International will land on the Hong Kong stock market, such a big good news, you need to be the chairman of the board of directors to announce in person! ”
Zhang Ying's voice was somewhat excited.
This trip to Hong Kong, she can be said to have won a big victory. It not only increased the number of shares issued by Rite Technology to Feiteng Group to 125 million shares, but also increased its shareholding ratio to nearly 89.9%.
The day before returning from Hong Kong, she held a joint press conference on behalf of Feiteng Group and Huang Yaming on behalf of Rite Technology, announcing that the mainland Feiteng Group had successfully realized the asset restructuring of Rite Technology Co., Ltd., and with the approval of the relevant departments of the Hong Kong government, the listed company Rite Technology was officially renamed Feiteng International, and issued 210 million new shares to the global market, and the first transaction next month (November 3, 1997) was officially listed.
Although in Hong Kong, Lite Technology is an inconspicuous small listed company, because the restructuring party is a mainland enterprise group, this has caused extensive reports and hype in Hong Kong media and some mainland economic media. Some media even called this the first successful case of capital operation between mainland enterprises and Hong Kong-funded enterprises after Hong Kong's return to the mainland.
For a time, the Hong Kong economic circles paid considerable attention to this dark horse in the mainland, and the Hong Kong media also dug up some of the most valuable information about the rise of the Feiteng Group through various channels.
Lan Ruo, who had just returned to Hong Kong, heard the news when he got off the plane. She was slightly stunned and surprised: Zhou Nan unknowingly completed the asset restructuring of a Hong Kong listed company and successfully went public through a backdoor listing?
asked the assistant to buy a few copies of the day's newspaper, and Lan Ruo sat in the car home and flipped through it.
"Feiteng Group is mainly engaged in the research and development, production and sales of fragrances and flavors, and its specific products include three categories: tobacco flavors, food flavors and chemical flavors. At present, Feiteng Group has become one of the largest fragrance and flavor manufacturers in China, with production bases and R&D centers in the eastern seaboard, southwest and Jinghua. According to the data, Feiteng Group has not been in the industry for a long time and does not have any professional background, so what is the reason for its rapid development? The reporter of this newspaper found that the two-pronged approach is the magic weapon of Feiteng Group's success, one is to carry out equity cooperation with cigarette factories to promote the development of tobacco flavors, and the other is to carry out mergers and acquisitions to enter and expand the food flavor and flavor business ......"
"Feiteng Group timely changed the original marketing model of 'directly providing products and flavor technology for major customers and providing customers with a full range of technical solutions', and then adopted the model of equity cooperation with cigarette companies and joint ventures to set up fragrance and flavor production enterprises...... Such a novel business marketing model has created an amazing industrial myth in the shortest possible time, and Feiteng Group was born, and its momentum is unstoppable. ”
"Through the establishment of close partnerships with cigarette companies, Feiteng Group has not only built a competitive barrier in the industry, but also completed the strategic layout of the Bohai Rim, East China, North China and Southwest China in a short period of time, effectively built a national service network, and promoted the expansion of sales scale......
Lan Ruo looked at the almost overwhelming report on Feiteng Group in the newspaper, and couldn't help but choke speechlessly.
She knew that Zhou Nan owned a company, and when Ma Xiaojing inquired about Ritter Technology through the Lan's Enterprise Investment Department, she was curious, and accidentally discovered that Zhou Nan actually owned a private company, and it seemed that the scale was not small.
But Lan Ruo didn't have an exact concept of this, and he never thought that Zhou Nan, who had just graduated, would toss such a big stall in such a short period of time, and also extended the tentacles of capital operation to Hong Kong.
As the core senior manager of Lan's enterprise and the industry elite of capital operation, Lan Ruo knows what this means for Feiteng Group and Zhou Nan.
If the previous Feiteng Group was still a "local chicken", then, after the backdoor listing, it turned into a glorious phoenix and was reborn.
Thinking of this, Lan Ruo grabbed the phone in the car and called Lin Xue'er, who was far away in Haidu.
"Xue'er, I'm back in Hong Kong, I'll tell you, hehe." Lan Ruo was idle intentionally or unintentionally, which made Lin Xue'er, who answered the phone in Haidu, feel very surprised. Xindao You'll be there when you arrive, why did you call back in a dignified manner?
"Xue'er, there is a private enterprise in Haidu called Feiteng Group, which is a flavor manufacturer, you can help me inquire about it, how is this company......" Lan Ruo said in a low voice.
Lin Xue'er agreed, but she still felt very puzzled in her heart, why Lan Ruo suddenly became interested in a private enterprise in Haidu...... But whether it is a personal relationship or a business matter, Lan Ruo, the princess of the Lan family's enterprise, orders it, Lin Xue'er does not dare to slack off. But to be honest, although she works in Haidu, she is actually not very familiar with Haidu, and after thinking about it, she still called Ma Xiaojing's home, which she has a good personal relationship with her.
Ma Xiaojing had just arrived home and was helping her mother cook, when she heard the phone ringing, she hurriedly ran out to answer it, and when she saw that it was Lin Xue'er's call, she was a little excited.
Mr. Lin...... Looking for me? ”
"Xiaojing, have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, I'll treat you to hot pot, how about brushing the mutton? Lin Xue'er grinned, "By the way, I asked you something, can it be done?" ”
"Mr. Lin, I'm a little tired, I want to sleep at home, let's talk about something tomorrow." Ma Xiaojing's attitude was not enthusiastic.
Lin Xue'er muttered dissatisfiedly, and then asked softly, "Xiaojing, there is a private enterprise in Haidu called Feiteng Group, which specializes in the production of flavors, do you understand?" ”
Lin Xueer never dreamed that this so-called "Feiteng Group" was a company under Zhou Nan's name, and if she knew, she wouldn't ask Ma Xiaojing anything.
Ma Xiaojing was taken aback and said in surprise, "Why are you asking this?" ”
Lin Xue'er smiled, "It's nothing, help a friend to inquire, forget it, I'll find it myself tomorrow...... Okay, okay, I won't disturb your rest, go to bed quickly. ”
Lin Xue'er suddenly nervously asked what the Feiteng Group was doing? Did she know anything?
Ma Xiaojing put down the phone and stood there stunned. Thinking that this might cause "harm" to Zhou Nan, Ma Xiaojing immediately grabbed the phone and dialed Zhou Nan's mobile phone that had just been replaced.
