Mo Kongchao's words made Chen Yuan feel good, and in her mind, although the local cadres were a little wooden and slow to respond to some things, their pragmatism was still worthy of appreciation. As soon as the Japanese guests put forward a request, Quwu was able to immediately agree to come up with the two largest ceramic factories as joint venture objects, and this kind of execution made the cadres of the central ministries and commissions sigh to themselves.

With an appreciation for Mo Kongchao, Chen Yuan turned his head to Takamura Takehiko and said: "Mr. Takamura, you see that the leaders of Quwu are still very positive about this cooperation, as far as we know, Quwu No. 1 Tao and No. 2 Tao are local key ceramic enterprises, with strong technical strength, fully in line with your company's conditions, do you see what other requirements your company has?" ”

"Well...... this" Takehiko Takamura only felt that he was dumb and ate coptis, and he couldn't say that he was bitter.

The goal of his trip is the brother ceramic factory, investing in the construction of production bases, looking for joint ventures, are just a pretext, and even the figure of 200 million US dollars is also his temporary idea, in fact, it is impossible to do it. He didn't care about lying in front of Chen Yuan and others, as long as the goal was achieved, what was the difficulty of finding a way to drag down the investment from the beginning.

Unexpectedly, Quwu's officials seemed to be overly enthusiastic, and without waiting for them to pretend to go to investigate, they first threw out two ceramic factories. Well, even if these two ceramic factories are indeed key enterprises in Quwu, so what? Such a small business is not the object of Kucera's interest at all, and if it were not for the technology of ceramic knives, the Kucera company, from the president to the lowest-level porter, would not know that there is a place named Quwu in the world, let alone a ridiculous enterprise such as one pottery and two pottery.

"Dear Mayor Mo, we are very grateful for the kindness of your city. However, when it comes to choosing a partner, our company. In addition to considering the size and technical strength of the business, there are a few other factors to consider. Therefore, the two companies recommended to us by Mayor Mo, we need to conduct further investigation before we can decide whether to cooperate. In addition to these two companies, we also hope that Mayor Mo will recommend more enterprises to us. so that we can look at it more comprehensively. Takehiko Takamura said carefully.

"Absolutely." Mo Kongchao sneered in his heart, but his face was more enthusiastic, "The requirements of our Japanese friends, as long as we can meet them, we will definitely meet them unconditionally." Since Mr. Takamura still wants to inspect more enterprises, I also make a statement here, as long as it is a state-owned ceramic enterprise under the jurisdiction of Quwu City, no matter which one Mr. Takamura fancies, we will support it. ”

Except for Zheng Zepeng and Takamura Takehiko. None of the people present noticed a restrictive phrase that Mo Kongchao had specially added, that is, "state-owned enterprises", and the brother ceramic factory was not a state-owned enterprise.

"Quwu City's support for Japanese friends is really great." Chen Yuan said with emotion, "Mr. Takamura, if you have any requests, just put them forward." In carrying out reform and opening up, China very much welcomes foreign enterprises to invest in China. We will create the necessary convenience for investors. ”

"Mayor Mo, if we ...... If you are interested in the private sector in your city, can Mayor Mo also help promote cooperation? Takehiko Takamura directly bared his fangs.

Mo Kongchao frowned and said, "Well...... I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to answer you for a while. As you know, state-owned enterprises are under the jurisdiction of our government, and we can make decisions. But private enterprises as long as they operate legally. It is inconvenient for our government to intervene too much, and last year there was a document by the central government that specifically talked about this matter, by the way, Director Chen, it seems that this document was issued by your State Economic Commission. ”

Chen Yuan misunderstood what Mo Kongchao meant. In her opinion, Mo Kongchao did not want to give up this joint venture opportunity to private enterprises, so he would push it off like this. She said:

"The state is to protect private enterprises, and this is clearly stipulated in the policy. However, a joint venture with a large company like Kucera is also a very rare opportunity for a private company, and I think any private company would welcome it, right? Mayor Mo, in fact, whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, they are all our Quwu enterprises, and the palms and backs of the hands are all meat, Mayor Mo should not favor one over the other. ”

"No, no, if our private enterprises in Quwu are willing to accept the Japanese joint venture, we will definitely support it." Mo Kongchao said continuously, "However, we are not good at packing tickets for this matter now, we must communicate with the leaders of these enterprises, in case they have their own ideas, we are not good at overstepping the bounds, Director Chen, don't you say?" ”

Takehiko Takamura could only nod and agree: "Mayor Mo is right, cooperation, it must be done if both parties are willing." We hope that Mayor Mo will be able to get in touch with the leaders of these companies as much as possible, and if possible, we hope to be able to visit more companies and identify our partners. ”

Mo Kongchao seemed very cooperative, and he said cheerfully: "No problem, we will hold a meeting tomorrow to gather the heads of several private ceramic factories and inform them of the situation." If they are willing to accept the terms of the joint venture, we will immediately arrange for two Japanese friends to go and investigate. ”

There was nothing to say about anything further, and after everyone had talked nonsense, the director of the office came over to inform him that the banquet had been prepared and everyone could go to the banquet. So, under the guidance of Zheng Zepeng, everyone went to the canteen of the municipal government and enjoyed a sumptuous feast. The officials were staggered and exchanged flattering words during the banquet, which was really a joyful affair.

After the banquet, Zheng Zepeng and Mo Kongchao sent the guests to the hotel to stay, and made an appointment to inspect the relevant matters of the first pottery, the second pottery and other enterprises the next day, and then said goodbye and left. Chen Yuan and the others sent the two mayors out of the hotel gate, watching them walk away, Chen Yuan muttered in a low voice: "Lao Zhao, Lao Wang, do you think that Qu Wu's reaction today is a bit abnormal?" ”

"Abnormal?" Zhao Bowen was stunned for a moment, he drank a little too much at the banquet, his brain was still dizzy, and he couldn't remember the details of the talks between the two sides at all, "Director Chen, what do you think is abnormal?" ”

"Mo Kongchao's attitude towards the joint venture is a bit contrasting. The front is a big package, saying that any company can come up with a joint venture. Later, when it came to private enterprises, they suddenly changed their words and said that they would discuss with the leaders of the enterprises again, don't you think it's a little strange? Chen Yuan said. As an experienced official of the Economic Commission, she is still sensitive enough to these matters.

Wang Jiacheng thought for a while and said, "What Director Chen said is indeed the case. In my opinion, it is probably because Quwu does not pay much attention to private enterprises, and always feels that only state-owned enterprises are his own family, so he does not want to let the fertilizer flow to private enterprises. Many cadres in the mainland have such thoughts, and it is not surprising that Qu Wu has such concerns, right? ”

Chen Yuan said: "I also thought of the situation that Lao Wang said. However, judging from Takehiko Takamura's appearance, I feel that he is particularly interested in the private sector of Quwu. Obviously, the strength of Quwu is the strongest, and the joint venture always has to choose a good factory, and there will be less trouble in cooperation. But this Takamura Takehiko is not very interested in one pottery and two pottery, and he is desperate to see private enterprises. The attitudes of these two sides are just twisted, do you think it's a bit strange? ”

"People in Japan are all private companies, so they probably don't want to cooperate with state-owned companies, right?" Zhao Bowen guessed, "Alas, what are we doing with this brain, tomorrow when we start the investigation, aren't these things clear?" I'm afraid Qu Wu's side is just putting on a show, if the Japanese insist on finding a private company to cooperate, I don't think Qu Wu will refuse, right? ”

"That's for sure." Wang Jiacheng said with a smile.

When several ministry officials were talking about Mo Kongchao, Mo Kongchao was also talking with Zheng Zepeng about today's talks, and the opinions of the two people formed a high degree of agreement, that is, they believed that Takamura Takehiko's trip was aimed at the brother ceramic factory.

"It seems that this technology of the Brother Ceramics Factory is really a bit of a doorway. There are so many foreign dealers who have come, not even well-known international ceramic companies such as Kusella. Good guy, as soon as he made a move, it was 200 million, to be honest, I really wanted to persuade that Liu Shuo to simply sell the brother ceramic factory to the Japanese, 200 million US dollars, a total of more than 700 million yuan, enough for him to spend hundreds of lives. Zheng Zepeng said to Mo Kongchao with a smile, although there was some joke in his tone, but he really thought like this in his heart.

Mo Kongchao was very dissatisfied with Zheng Zepeng's words, but it was inconvenient to refute them directly, so he just smiled and said: "Lao Zheng, we are all cadres, and I really don't know what those private capitalists think." I think they must be more subtle than we are about gains and losses. If I were Liu Shuo, I'm afraid I wouldn't have agreed to a joint venture with the Japanese. Think about it, they can achieve sales of 200 million US dollars a year, and after doing it year after year, they still can't make a profit of 200 million? It's like the landlords of the past who bought land, and every year there is something that can be passed on to future generations. ”

"Haha, that's not the right analogy. Didn't the landlord's land be confiscated in the end? Isn't Liu Shuo worried that if the policy changes in the future, his factory will not be able to be saved? Zheng Zepeng said.

Mo Kongchao hurriedly waved his hand: "Lao Zheng, you can't say this casually, it's contrary to the spirit of the central government." Now we have several cadres from the central government here, and if they hear about it, they may have to go to the top and say that we are not carrying out the policies of the central government.
