Chapter 335: A Phoenix's Feathered Phoenix Is Not as Good as a Chicken
Qin Hai, Heizi and Liu Jie went out of the hotel together, Liu Jie raised his hand and waved, and a jeep came out of nowhere and stopped in front of them...... Liu Jie gestured and beckoned: "Come on, come on, Mr. Qin, you sit in front." β
In the minds of many local cadres, the auxiliary seat in front of the trolley is a relatively noble position, and it has always been reserved for leaders or VIPs. Of course, the big boss who really has a "fan" will not sit in this position, and this position should belong to the secretary or bodyguard. Qin Hai did not accept Liu Jie's kindness, but said with a smile: "Director Liu, let's sit in the back together, we can chat, and let Heizi sit in front." β
"It's okay, it's okay, then Mr. Qin will invite it first." Liu Jie diligently opened the back door and asked Qin Hai to get into the car first, and then got into the car himself.
A few small movements made Qin Hai feel a strangeness. When he came back to Jintang last time, although Yu Kexiu and Liu Jie also called him one by one, they didn't have much respect for them in their bones, and they especially showed that contempt in some details. But this time, Qin Hai could see that Liu Jie's humility to him was from the heart, maybe Liu Jie didn't have anything to ask of him, but psychologically, Liu Jie was already in a weak position.
A phoenix with a falling feather is not as good as a chicken, as the saying goes, it's really not wrong at all.
The driver drove a jeep through the streets of Jintang, and it was evening, and the light signs of the shops on both sides of the road were already lit up. One after another, rickshaws and jeeps pass by, and the hunched figure of the pedaling tricycle driver contrasts sharply with the street scene.
Sitting in the car, they couldn't talk about any Yan sΓΉ topics, Qin Hai and Liu Jie could only talk about some popular gossip. Liu Jie focused on inquiring about Qin Hai's actions in the past few years, but Qin Hai was reluctant to reveal too much. Just briefly talked about the thermal spraying machine, and emphasized that the cost of this thing is very high, so the profit is very small.
The car drove for more than ten minutes and stopped in front of a nondescript restaurant. Liu Jie pulled the car door and got out of the car, and beckoned Qin Hai to get out of the car, and at the same time introduced: "Mr. Qin." Look, how about we choose this restaurant? This restaurant doesn't look very good, but it's the most distinctive restaurant in our Jintang. β
Qin Hai took a closer look and saw that the grade of this restaurant was indeed not high, and it could be regarded as a home-cooked restaurant. Referring to the current situation of the Hongguang FRP factory introduced by the tricycle driver before, Qin Hai can understand that even if Liu Jie is the director of the factory, he does not dare to entertain guests in too high-end places, so he can only settle here.
Come to think of it. Qin Hai smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, when you go to a place, you have to eat something distinctive, and the faΓ§ade decoration or something is empty." β
Liu Jie hurriedly echoed: "Mr. Qin is too right, we don't talk about this pomp, the main thing is to eat a specialty." β
The two of them laughed tacitly. Pushed the door and entered the restaurant, and the driver of Heizi and Liu Jie followed behind them. Walked in too. There weren't many people eating at the restaurant, so the waiter took them to a table by the window and sat down and handed them a simple menu.
Liu Jie was obviously familiar with this restaurant, and after he was a little polite to Qin Hai, he skillfully ordered six dishes and asked for local liquor. Tell the waiter to hurry up and serve the wine and food.
"Mr. Qin, we haven't seen each other for three years, right?" While waiting for the food to be served, Liu Jie asked Qin Hai.
"For more than three years, the last time we met was in Pujiang. Pusang automotive materials bidding time. Qin Hai said.
Hearing Qin Hai mention the matter of Pusang Automobile, Liu Jie looked frustrated and said: "Oh, Mr. Qin, if you don't mention this Pusang Automobile, I don't care." As soon as you mention it, I really have the heart to wipe my neck. I think that at the beginning, you Mr. Qin persuaded us to cooperate with the Automobile Localization Office to engage in automobile materials, but we were all lost in lard, and we actually regarded your Mr. Qin's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. I remember you warned us at the time, saying that we would definitely regret it in a few years, and you see now, don't we regret it? β
Qin Hai didn't come to Jintang to listen to Liu Jie's confession, he smiled and said, "No one can predict the changes in the market. At the time, I just said it casually, but I didn't expect it to come true now. By the way, Director Liu, I heard that the situation of Hongguang Factory is not very good now, can you introduce me? β
"Introduce what? It's all stopped. Liu Jie said, "Our products have been consistent for decades, and there is no innovation. In addition, the equipment is aging, the production scale is small, and the cost is high, which is not as good as the large enterprises in Beijing and Pujiang, and now the factory has no business for more than half a year, and the wages of workers are all maintained by bank loans. β
"Is it the same with the factory director?" Qin Hai asked.
"Who? Yu Kexiu? Liu Jie was stunned for a moment, and then thought that Qin Hai only knew Yu Kexiu, the factory director surnamed Yu, in Jintang. He said: "The situation over there is not as good as mine." Our factory has a store in the city, and now it is rented to southerners to do business, and it can still collect some rent a year. Lao Yu has no living money over there, and even Lao Yu himself is about to go to earn money for three rounds. β
"The city doesn't care?" Qin Hai asked again.
Liu Jie said: "How to manage the city? There are so many enterprises in the city, there are few people who make money, and there are almost seventy or eighty percent of those who have stopped work, and the city has set up an office to reduce losses and increase efficiency, but the products of our enterprises are not competitive, and no office can bring us back to life. β
At this point, the waiter brought the food and drinks. Liu Jie's driver was quite a little eye-catching, grabbed the wine bottle, first poured wine for Qin Hai and Liu Jie, and then poured wine for Heizi. He himself couldn't drink because he had to drive, so he just poured some boiled water into his glass so that he could accompany everyone while they were drinking.
Liu Jie waited for the driver to finish pouring the wine, picked up the wine glass, and said, "Mr. Qin, and Xiaofu, I will toast you first, and welcome you to Jintang as a guest." The food and drinks are very simple, but my Lao Liu's heart is sincere, and I won't say anything superfluous, so let's do it first as a respect. β
Seeing his politeness, Qin Hai hurriedly picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the cup with Liu Jie. Without waiting for Liu Jie to get the wine glass, Heizi had already taken the wine bottle in his hand and filled Liu Jie with wine.
Next, it was naturally Qin Hai's turn to toast, followed by Heizi, Liu Jie's driver saw this, and also took his cup filled with boiled water to signal to everyone, which was considered to have completed a passing scene.
After a few glasses of wine, Liu Jie's face turned slightly red, and he asked Qin Hai with the strength of the wine: "Mr. Qin, did you take a fancy to our companies when you came to Jintang this time, and you want to take this opportunity to make a copy?" β
"Where did that come from?" Qin Hai said with a smile, "I obviously only arrived in Jintang this afternoon, how does Director Liu know my intention?" β
Liu Jie squinted his eyes and said, "Mr. Qin, we are also old acquaintances, are you still hiding such a thing from me?" It's true that you just arrived in Jintang, but Xiao Fu followed a Liu factory director to Lao Yu a while ago, and this matter can't be hidden from my eyes. Listening to Lao Yu, that director Liu seems to have something to do with you, how can you not know what he is doing in Jintang? β
Qin Haidao: "I and Director Liu are partners, but he came to Jintang and discussed it with me." Director Liu, I heard that Director Liu and Director Yu didn't have a good conversation, do you know why? β
"Didn't Xiao Fu follow Director Liu all the time, he didn't tell you?" Liu Jie asked.
Qin Hai shook his head: "Xiao Fu is not responsible for business affairs with me, mainly to help me deal with some administrative matters, so what Director Liu and Director Yu talked about, he doesn't know much about it." β
Qin Hai's words are naturally not true, Heizi is like a little follower who runs errands on the surface, but in fact, he still sees many things very clearly. Regarding the differences between Liu Yaozhong and Yu Kexiu, Heizi has also reported to Qin Hai. However, Qin Hai wanted to hear Liu Jie's opinion on this matter, so he concealed the role of the sunspot.
Liu Jie believed Qin Hai's words a little, he sighed and said, "Alas, this person is too old, and his heart is too real. He insisted that Director Liu should cover the lives of all the workers in the Jinnan Factory, even the retired workers, how could there be such a good thing? Retired workers have sold their lives for the country, not for your private boss, which private boss is willing to accept these retired workers? β
"What, can you ignore the retired workers in the receiving factory?" Qin Hai asked keenly.
Liu Jie said: "In the past, there were a few southerners who came to Jintang and bought several state-owned factories. The practice is to keep the useful workers and leave the useless ones alone, and as for the retired workers, they are directly pushed to the city government. β
"The city government won't care about it. My sister-in-law and her parents are retired workers in those factories, and their pensions have been gone for more than a year, and they are preparing to go to the city government to make trouble in the past two days. The driver interjected. The rules between leaders and subordinates in state-owned enterprises are not so strict, and it is normal for subordinates to interject when leaders chat.
Qin Hai turned his head to the driver and asked, "Is this the first time they've gone to make trouble?" β
The driver said, "No, I've had a few troubles in the past." Every time there is a trouble, the city will make up for a few months, but if it is a few months, it is equivalent to the money of the past month, and the city says that it is 3o per month. β
"It's not a long-term solution." Qin Hai said.
Liu Jie sneered: "What long-term plan do you have to think of now, it can be delayed for a month or a month." If I were Lao Yu, I would definitely not dwell on the affairs of retired workers, and I would manage as many people as Director Liu could manage. In this way, there will be fewer people left, and it will be easier to ask the city for money, isn't it? (To be continued......)
ps: In order to make room to welcome foreign friends, Orange decided to leave Beijing tomorrow to go out, and today can only be changed, and tomorrow I will be ready to code words in the hotel......
