Zhang Ke appeared, mainly to meet Cui Wenyi and Chen Rongkun, and he would not discuss anything in depth in the short time after the night banquet, and left after a short pause. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Cui Wenyi did not stay at the Jianye Hotel, where the General Armament Department has a guest hotel, and he insisted that he and the officials of the General Armament Department and the National Defense Science and Technology Bureau, who were attending Jianye as observers, stay at the guest hotel.

In the car, Yu Heng asked his father: "Do you want to pick up Xiao Man, and I don't know when we can talk, so I didn't let Xiao Man go to Jianye Hotel with us?" ”

"Forget it, it's not too late to see the girl tomorrow. The family lives in a guest hotel, and it is not appropriate for you to ask the hotel to charge or not to charge the room fee, and it is not appropriate to send a car to take her back to school......," Cui Wenyi said.

"Fortunately, our Xinhua News Agency also subsidizes business trips," Cui Yuheng said helplessly, "Otherwise, do you plan to let me pay for the hotel out of my own pocket?" ”

"Your situation is special, don't raise the bar with me," Cui Wenyi said with a straight face, "You invited Zhang Ke to dinner in the afternoon, what do you think of him?" Cui Wenyi didn't have much opportunity to contact and observe Zhang Ke, and they would be too cautious in informal meetings at this level, and the contact was always superficial, so he asked his son Cui Yuheng to invite Zhang Ke to dinner in the afternoon, which was regarded as a serious observation of Zhang Ke on his behalf.

"The intelligence of the young man does not explain why Kumho has miraculously risen," Mr. Choi said, "and I rarely see anyone in China who has such a far-reaching strategic vision -- he is only 20 years old, and Kumho was founded four years ago, when he was just a freshman in high school." I think about what I was doing in my first year of high school, I thought I was very mature, and I was very disgusted that you and my mother were in charge of me, and I started to write my first love letter, but I hid it in my schoolbag for a month and let my mother turn it over to the ...... first."

"I don't want to listen to your messy things," Cui Wenyi smiled, and was also very relieved that his son could talk to him about some fart past events in such a peaceful tone, "Zhang Ke, I heard his voice first, but I didn't see him, and I saw it with my own eyes today, his words and demeanor give people just the right feeling, with a quiet and elegant temperament, and the fragmentary impressions obtained from the information immediately became vivid after witnessing him...... The first meeting made others have this impression of him, and it also showed that he was skilled. ”

"Why are you so cautious?" Cui Yuheng stood up and refilled himself with a glass of water.

"The military will not be directly involved in this plan, but among the complex stakes there is no more effective and feasible solution. In RB80, the Committee was established to review the policy of stable supply of non-ferrous metal mineral resources, which was responsible for conducting in-depth research on the global resource distribution, production and consumption, supply status, industrial concentration of supplier countries, RB's dependence on foreign countries, supply risk countermeasures and crises of 46 non-ferrous metals. In '82, RB established the Special Metals Reserve Association, starting to run the reserve system from the private sector, and in '85, RB launched the national reserve base, and China's work in this area is far behind other countries, and it doesn't even know when it will be carried out - rare earth mineral resources are now being mined in a destructive way and then swept away by overseas miners like garbage, how can the military stand idly by? However, these still need to wait for the unified deployment of the central government at the economic level, not only the mineral resources with abundant natural reserves in China, but also those resources with high dependence on foreign countries, such as oil and iron ore, need to be prepared in advance. Even if the military is determined to do so, it cannot be straightened out with a simple order due to the complex interests of local governments, mining enterprises, central ministries and commissions in the rare earth industry, not to mention that it cannot be straightened out with a simple order, not to mention that it cannot ignore the influence and pressure of the international community -- Kumho's proposal is probably the most powerful means at this time. ”

"Are you worried that the General Armament Department has been used by Kumho?" Cui Yuheng asked, "The resistance to this plan is by no means small, but there are 516 cases and Zhangzhou cases that can silence many people's mouths, and once the opportunity is missed, the difficulty of wanting to do this can be doubled - can you seize this opportunity?" ”

"Whatever others want, everyone's hearts are clear, and Chen Rongkun is also unwilling to take a back seat - but Kumho's demands are more vague, it seems that anything can be talked about, and anything can be compromised. It seems that the majority of the funds needed to provide the planned operation are only for less than 15% of the shares, and this shareholding ratio seems to be further reduced. ”

"When did you practice conspiracy theories?" Cui Yuheng asked with a smile, "I see the problem very simply, first of all, dispersed metals are widely used in optoelectronics and information technology, and one of the tasks that Kumho has worked hard in the past two years is to strengthen research in optoelectronics and information basic technology." Although China, including our country, is short-sighted in terms of basic research, it is strange that others cannot take a long-term view. In addition, the implementation of this plan, the direct benefits that can be obtained are also very considerable, even if only a small part of the shares, the future income will far exceed the efforts at this time - this plan should be implemented as soon as possible, all parties must provide the required resources as much as possible, Kumho can only provide financial support in the form of corporate bonds at this time, otherwise who will tolerate Kumho to participate? ”

Zhang Ke invited Sun Shangyi and Jiang Wei to return to Xuefu Lane of the Youth Apartment together, and Ye Jianbin and Ye Zhenmin did not return to their residence in the city for the time being, so they followed together.

At this time, it started to rain, and everyone sat in the tea room in the garden on the rooftop, listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the sun panels.

"Chen Rongkun proposed in the afternoon to integrate all the state-funded parts of the plan into a joint foundation, which is probably the opinion of the State Council......," Ye Jianbin said, adding that tomorrow's meeting will continue, and some issues will be discussed overnight.

"Oh," Zhang Ke responded, and there was no special surprise, and asked Ye Zhenmin with a smile, "It's not surprising, Kumho can't have too much ambition, second uncle, don't you say?" ”

"This joint foundation integrates all the state-owned assets, and it is impossible to have only one voice," Ye Zhenmin said with a smile, "Have you been prepared for this a long time ago?" You have instigated Jiangnan Province to integrate all the scattered rare earth mining enterprises into a large provincial company, which is equivalent to strengthening Jiangnan Province's influence in this foundation, and the local interests are not always aligned with the central government. ”

"The integration of upstream resources is a must, on the other hand, Kumho has not yet had the luxury of competing for the dominance of this time," Zhang Ke explained, "It is in the national interest to be able to promote the work as soon as possible, and Kumho will choose to be consistent with the fundamental interests of the country, but sometimes it will be a little tricky, and it is also worried that others will exploit the loopholes in the system...... Besides, our ambitions are not limited to this," Zhang Ke smiled, and said to Ye Jianbin again, "Tomorrow I will exchange opinions with Liang Weifa alone; In addition, can you go to Tokyo University tomorrow to pick up Cui Guoheng in person, and I will take your car to the venue......"

Cui Guoheng is very in-depth in studying the economic model of the RB comprehensive trading company, and some things, especially some plans, should be seized to exchange views with him before they are formally implemented; this evening, although Zhang Ke has made his identity clear, he has not had the opportunity to have in-depth contact with him -- Cui Guoheng left with Lu Wenfu in the evening.

Cui Guoheng found a Japanese-style restaurant with Lu Wenfu at night, chatted until late at night before leaving, and learned from Lu Wenfu about the deep relationship between Zhang Ke and Xu Xueping, the former deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and governor over the years, as well as Kumho's unknown rise trajectory and the existence of Haiyu Company.

When they parted in front of the Japanese-style tavern, Lu Wenfu smiled and said, "You didn't expect Dongda to hide such a demon before, right?" ”

Cui Guoheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not that you hide from me?" ”

"What good will it do you to tell you these things?" Lu Wenfu smiled and said, "Some people would rather pretend not to know this kid. ”

Cui Guoheng knew what Lu Wenfu meant, smiled, and broke up and returned to his residence on the campus of Tokyo University.

The next day, Cui Guoheng received a phone call at home, saying that Ye Jianbin had come to pick him up to attend the morning seminar. Cui Guoheng was waiting downstairs for Ye Jianbin to come over, and was a little surprised to see Zhai Danqing get out of the car to help him open the door, but it was normal to think about it, maybe it was the senior management of Kumho or Shengxin who came to study at the University of Tokyo -- in recent years, the students enrolled in the MBA program of the University of Tokyo are all accomplished business people in society.

"Dean Cui will be surprised to see me, right?" Zhai Danqing smiled faintly and helped Cui Guoheng open the car door, "The company I worked for before belonged to Century Kumho, and because I was going to enter the University of Tokyo to concentrate on classes, I also worked as a temporary assistant to Zhang Ke during this time......

Cui Guoheng got into the car and saw that Zhang Ke was also in the car.

Ye Jianbin, who was sitting in the front row, turned around and said to Cui Guoheng: "Did Dean Cui ever think that there would be such a demon hidden in your National Business Academy? ”

Cui Guoheng remembered that Lu Wenfu also said this last night, smiled, it is appropriate to describe Zhang Ke as a demon, when the teachers and students of the school are still amazed by Du Fei, Meng Le and others to start a business in the school, who would have thought that there is such a big giant crocodile hidden behind it, and said with a smile: "It is said that the big hidden in the city, if I could have known earlier, I wouldn't be able to talk about being hidden, but in the future in the school, I can no longer hold up the teacher's shelf," said to Zhang Ke with his head sideways, " I'm afraid that there are not many people in the whole of China who can be your teacher in the field of economics and academics......"

Zhang Ke smiled and said: "Although I am a lazy student, I have also caused a lot of trouble for Dean Cui in school, you can't deny me as a student because I caused trouble, right?" ”

Cui Guoheng shook his head and smiled, but he didn't say anything more.

Now that he knows Zhang Ke's identity, the most troublesome thing for Cui Guoheng is that Zhang Ke will continue to hide in the National Chamber of Commerce, what kind of attitude should he take to contact him? Just like Lu Wenfu said, what is the benefit of knowing his identity earlier!

Cui Guoheng thought that the principal Li Hongming might already know Zhang Ke's identity, and several things that should have alarmed the school were entrusted to the hospital by Li Hongming, who usually pays more attention to power. But hearing Zhang Ke say this, Cui Guoheng was a little relieved, he was worried that Zhang Ke was too strong and would make him embarrassed in the future, and he would rather see Zhang Ke less on campus now.

"It's still early, are we going to take a car around Dongda?" Zhang Ke said again.

Cui Guoheng thought that Zhang Ke still had something to say, so he naturally had no opinion, although the fog was removed, but his heart was full of more doubts about Zhang Ke.

"Chen Rongkun proposed to integrate all the state-funded parts of the plan to form a joint foundation, and through the joint foundation to cooperate with Kumho to implement the plan, the leading power will also be transferred to the hands of this joint foundation - this is probably also the meaning of the central government, they want to fight for it, in terms of domestic monopoly resources, Kumho is too strong, and it will always arouse suspicion," Zhang Ke said, his tone changed again, as if to say another unrelated thing, "Since the beginning of this year, Kumho has been a little large. It seems that there is a relatively large development opportunity in the field of consumer electronics, and I am thinking about Kumho's future development space and competitors...... However, there is one thing that we cannot deny, Kumho currently has a relatively large space for development only in China, and cross-border competition is our most fatal weakness......"

"Kumho's DMP technology has quite good market prospects abroad......," said Cui Guoheng, who has long been concerned about Kumho and will take some time to study Kumho's successes, and feels that Zhang Ke seems to be a bit arrogant when he says this.

"Kumho was the first to develop a digital audio player, which is a special example, and we take a serious look at it, how many of the core technologies in the digital audio player do not belong to Kumho itself? Kumho's actual international competitiveness is really unbearable...... "In the future of transnational competition, Kumho's first competitors in Asia are Samsung Electronics and Sony Electronics, which are Japanese and Korean electronics manufacturers, but these Japanese and Korean electronics manufacturers do not exist in isolation, and they participate in the construction of a large-scale industrial and large-scale trade system that integrates production, education and research with their unique integrated trading company model." The most typical example of this model is the Mitsui Foundation, which is based on the Mitsui & Co. comprehensive trading company model. Of course, Samsung C&T's ability to learn RB is not bad, and it supports the Samsung consortium that HG is proud of...... Kumho could only become a joke if it wanted to surpass Samsung Electronics and Sony Electronics in the cross-border competition without considering the factors behind Japanese and Korean electronics manufacturers such as Samsung Electronics and Sony Electronics. Kumho's layout in the consumer electronics industry is already a big deal, but fundamentally it is still only based on the middle and lower reaches of the entire industrial chain, equipment manufacturing, electronic semiconductor materials and other upstream fields, and we don't even have the opportunity to enter now. After thinking about it for a long time, I also think that only by developing the model of integrated trading companies can we stand on the same strategic level as Japanese and Korean manufacturers, and it is possible to surpass them...... This is why I was considering the introduction of the RB general trading company model, not to help the central government introduce the RB general trading company model, but to develop Kumho itself to develop the integrated trading company model. ”

Cui Guoheng couldn't hold back the shock in his heart: his ambition was to develop Kumho into a large consortium with a super-industrial existence! The ambition of a twenty-year-old is really surprising.

Zhang Ke continued: "Kumho got 4 billion yuan from the Hong Kong securities market last year, but it also used 7788, and there is not much left. On the one hand, we have very limited funds, and on the other hand, we want to develop the RB general trading company model, and if we want to get the support of the state in terms of policies, the possibility is very small, so we can only do something tailored to our needs. It was very accidental to have a conflict with Zhou Jinxi in the lecture hall, but seeing such a big problem in the rare earth industry, I was thinking that the current situation and scale of the rare earth industry may provide us with an opportunity to practice......"

Cui Guoheng thought to himself: Is Zhang Ke going to say that Kumho wants to do much more than that? What an extraordinary ambition!

"It's just practice, even if we do so much work in this practice, the central government will always take the lead in the past......" Ye Jianbin sighed slightly, always felt a little pity, Chen Rongkun proposed on behalf of the State Council to set up a joint foundation, the person in charge of the joint foundation is naturally from the official, Chen Rongkun's tone of pulling up the relationship last night is also quite obvious, probably not willing to take a back seat and only play the residual heat in the form of a think tank consultant.

Zhang Ke asked Cui Guoheng: "What do you think, Dean Cui?" ”

"On the other hand, the Asian financial crisis has put the HG economy in a difficult situation, and the central government has also made a mouse, and it will certainly not easily promote the large-scale development of the integrated trading company model in China...... Due to the particularity of its status and small scale, the rare earth industry is likely to obtain the approval of the central government. ”

"If we insist on replicating the model of a general trading company in China, is it possible to devise a path to break through the limitations of the existing system?" Zhang Ke asked, "Even if we can't get the final leadership of this plan, after all, we are involved, and we will play an influence that cannot be ignored." ”

"Industrial policy aside, how to solve the problem of capital scale? The core function of a general trading company is to provide financing services. The capital required to accelerate the development of unbalanced industries is much larger than the amount of capital required to maintain the day-to-day operations of a general trading company, which is usually based on a bank or other financial institution. Needless to say, although the HG consortium such as Samsung, Hyundai, LG, and Daewoo are not directly affiliated with their own large commercial banks, the HG government is extremely supportive of the model of domestic enterprises copying integrated trading companies, and in the name of the state, they have borrowed foreign debts to directly provide hundreds of billions of dollars in loans to these enterprises, which is also the fundamental reason for HG to fall into the deep economic crisis this time...... "Cui Guoheng said, although Kumho has the ability to bring in a huge amount of 4 billion yuan from the Hong Kong securities market. However, this capital is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of capital needed to develop a large-scale general trading company, not to mention that Kumho's several major moves in the past year have almost exhausted these funds, and it is impossible for the state to provide tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars of capital to a private enterprise to help it develop a comprehensive trading company model -- the scale of debt of HG Samsung has exceeded $20 billion for a long time.

Ye Jianbin thought that Sun Shangyi and Ge Mingde were frequently active in the Chinese business circle in Southeast Asia, so he naturally would not just appease the hearts of the overseas Chinese who were injured in the anti-Chinese riots in Indonesia, and gaining the favor and trust of the Chinese business community in the southeast would solve the problem of financial hunger and thirst that Kumho is currently facing to the greatest extent.

Regarding Cui Guoheng's question, Zhang Ke explained slightly, saying: "Kumho has also gained some trust from overseas Chinese businessmen in the near future, although it is impossible to obtain particularly large-scale funds immediately, there will be no problem in obtaining tens of billions of financial support in the short term, after all, there is a process of deepening trust - Kumho Mining, of course, it is very likely that this will no longer be the name in a few days, Kumho Mining's business focus is in China, and the business focus will not be dominated by Kumho, I would like to ask Dean Cui to serve as a consultant of Kumho Mining. Dean Cui's research focuses on foreign countries rather than at home. In order to develop a comprehensive trading company model, Kumho should not only promote the balanced development of related domestic industries, but also strengthen its ability to compete across borders. In addition, the establishment of Kumho Mining also avoids domestic scarce metal resources in the export trade to suffer less losses, some domestic shortage of resources, such as oil, iron ore to import from overseas, how to avoid less losses? I will have someone provide you with all the information you can provide so far, and I hope that you will serve as an advisor to Kumho Development General Trading Company......"

Cui Guoheng didn't agree immediately, frowned slightly, and said, "Can you read the materials first?" It's going to be very difficult, and I really don't have the confidence to be a consultant. ”

"......" Zhang Ke nodded and said, "Kumho has a long way to go to establish a trading company group in the true sense, and there are no advantages in capital, talents, channel networks, and policy support, but we have to grit our teeth and bite the bullet, and this step will be possible to broaden the sky - some people may think that it will be inappropriate to implement that plan in the rare earth industry and put on the name of 'Kumho', but ah, I let Hong Kong have already registered." Kumho Sho's company name, overseas companies are called Hong Kong Kumho Shoji Group, with Hong Kong as its headquarters, and domestic companies will be headquartered in Jianye, what do you think? ”
