Chapter 295: The Problem of Face Kills People
Of course, Liu Shuo was inconvenient for Mo Kongchao to come directly to the conference room, he instructed Ming Yongbo to continue to preside over the meeting, and he took Huang Yanling and the others to meet Mo Kongchao outside the office building and invited him to his office.
"So late, I heard you're still in a meeting?" After Mo Kongchao sat down, he asked Liu Shuo casually.
"Yes, we're talking about the Kucera Company." Liu Shuo said frankly.
"What do you guys think?" Mo Kongchao didn't make any detours, and asked Liu Shuo directly.
Liu Shuo asked rhetorically: "Mayor Mo, we still don't know the true intentions of the Japanese, do you have any more definite news here?" ”
Mo Kongchao shook his head and said, "They didn't clearly state their intentions, but Mayor Zheng and I agree that they must be here for you." ”
"These little devils are so shameless." Huang Yanling said hatefully, "When I was in Brazil, they planned to deceive us, saying that they wanted to cooperate with us, but we refused to do so. This time, they actually brought the leaders of the central government together, did they want to put pressure on us? ”
"It's a bit of a trick to do." Mo Kongchao sighed, "The Japanese bypassed us and found the leadership of the central government first. Now that several directors and directors have arrived, if we don't cooperate with their work, it will be a little unpleasant at that time. Work with them...... Needless to say, I know you're not going to say yes. ”
"Of course I can't say yes!" Huang Yanling said, "Mayor Mo, you know the business shape of our factory, why should we cooperate with them for such a good business?" ”
"Is that what you all think?" Mo Kongchao asked.
Liu Shuo nodded: "We just had a meeting to discuss this matter, and all our factory leaders and main middle-level cadres have the same opinion. That is, resolutely disagreeing with cooperation with the Japanese. ”
In fact, Liu Shuo's words are not true, such as Wang Peichao and a few others, still have a little bit of desire to cooperate with the Japanese, but they were just held down by Liu Shuo, Huang Yanling and others. Liu Shuo didn't want to say too much to Mo Kongchao about these internal differences. Anyway, in the end, everyone has at least reached an agreement verbally, so Liu Shuo can report like this.
"Where's your Qin Hai?" Mo Kongchao asked again.
Liu Shuo said: "I have already called Director Qin in the afternoon to report this matter, and he said that he will come over to deal with it immediately." His opinion is also that he cannot cooperate with the Japanese, and according to the regulations of our factory, his opinion is the most important. ”
"Qin Hai is coming over too?" Mo Kongchao scratched his head slightly. For Liu Shuo and the others, he is sure enough to be able to control them, and believes that they will not cause trouble for him. But for this Qin Hai, Mo Kongchao was a little uncertain. He had never dealt with Qin Hai and listened to Liu Shuo's introduction. Qin Hai is very young, very capable, and very rich, and has a good relationship with the vice minister of the Ministry of Agriculture...... Can a bull like this listen to his own arrangement?
"Xiao Liu, you Qin Hai...... Is it easy to talk? Mo Kongchao asked hesitantly.
"Director Qin is very good." Without waiting for Liu Shuo to speak, Huang Yanling hurriedly interjected, "He has a lot of ability." But there is no shelf at all, and when we meet, they call me eldest sister. You're welcome. By the way, this time in Brazil, he also gave me a bag, which is very valuable......"
"......" Mo Kongchao was a little speechless, a woman's perspective on the problem is sometimes really special. Does calling you the eldest sister proves that he is good at talking? This only proves that he knows how to be polite, but it does not mean that he is easy to speak, and that good speech means ...... Alas, forget it, I can't explain it to this stupid big sister.
Liu Shuo understood what Mo Kongchao was asking. He thought for a moment and said, "Qin Hai is a young, smart, enthusiastic, and principled person. In general, he will not fight with others for small things, and he has to be very humble. However, when it comes to issues of principle, he has taken a very tough ...... I think that even for leaders like ministers and provincial governors, he will stick to his opinion. ”
"That's quite characterful." Mo Kongchao smiled, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind: Since this Qin Hai has such a tough spirit, wouldn't it be better if he was allowed to deal with Chen Yuan and Zhao Bowen? Anyway, he is from Anhe Province, even if he provokes the superior leaders, it doesn't matter what Qu Wu does.
"Okay, Xiao Liu, when Qin Hai comes, you must take him to my place, and I will talk to him...... Wait, um, don't let him go to the city hall, you arrange a place, it's more appropriate for me to meet him in private, you know what I mean, right? Mo Kongchao admonished.
"I see." Liu Shuo is a smart person, and such a thing is naturally thorough.
"Mayor Mo, I don't think we're struggling too hard. In fact, the Japanese want to take advantage of our factory, this is an obvious thing, and it is okay to make this matter clear to the superiors? Huang Yanling asked puzzled.
Mo Kong opened his mouth, but finally just smiled wryly and said, "Xiao Huang, what is going on here...... It's complicated, and I can't explain a word. In short, when the Japanese and the superior leaders come, you should not talk too much, and it is good to pretend to be deaf and dumb about some things. If the Japanese say that they want to make a joint venture with you, you will say that you can't be the master, and push it on Director Liu and your Director Qin, and let them talk about the rest. ”
"Well, I see." Huang Yanling agreed.
Mo Kongchao learned Liu Shuo's thoughts and Qin Hai's opinions, and the purpose of this trip was achieved. He stood up and said, "Okay, it's not too early, I'll go back first." ”
Liu Shuo and Huang Yanling also quickly stood up and said, "Let's send Mayor Mo." ”
Mo Kongchao looked at Huang Yanling and said, "Otherwise, please trouble Xiao Liu to send me out, Xiao Huang, you better go back to the meeting, didn't you say that the meeting hasn't broken up yet?" ”
Huang Yanling knew that Mo Kongchao had something to say to Liu Shuo alone, so she hurriedly agreed obediently and stopped. Liu Shuo accompanied Mo Kongchao out of the office building and came outside, Mo Kongchao saw that there was no one next to him, and said to Liu Shuo in a low voice: "Xiao Liu, don't say too much about the joint venture with the Japanese when the time comes." Since you said that Qin Hai is coming over, it is best to let him speak, so that we will be more proactive. ”
Liu Shuo said: "Mayor Mo, the question Yan Ling asked just now is actually my question. Our brother ceramic factory has such a good business form, and it must not be able to cooperate with the Japanese, so why can't we explain this matter to the leaders of the central government? ”
Mo Kongchao sighed: "Xiao Liu, it's good that you understand this matter in your heart, don't tell others." You think, there are several directors and directors from above, all of whom want to promote this matter. What would they think if we sued them that they had been deceived by the Japanese? ”
"I'm afraid...... I'm going to feel embarrassed. Liu Shuo said hesitantly.
Mo Kong said: "That's right! In the final analysis, this matter is also because we did not have time to report to the superiors, I originally planned to wait for you to sign all the contracts with foreign businessmen, summarize them, and then report to the authorities, who knew that the people from the central government would come so quickly. They don't know what's going on with you, and they think it's a good thing to have a joint venture with the Japanese. People are rushing here, what do you think will happen if we pour a scoop of cold water on others? ”
"This ...... I'm afraid they won't be able to hang their faces, and then ......" Liu Shuo understands. For leaders, face is more important than anything, if Qu Wu directly picks up this matter, Chen Yuan, Zhao Bowen and the like will not be able to get off the stage. At that time, they will inevitably be angry with the Quwu Municipal Government, which is not a good ending.
"Alas, the problem of face kills people." Liu Shuo looked up to the sky and sighed.
Mo Kong said: "Now that we have come, we can only take one step at a time." If Qin Hai can come over, it will be the best. You explain to him, let him not speak too much, be a little tactful, don't make the leader's face look bad, do you understand? ”
"I see." Liu Shuo replied.
Mo Kongchao's meaning is very clear, that is, to let Qin Hai carry all the thunder, and to arm it as if he does not know the truth. In this way, if Chen Yuan and they have any opinions, they will also go to Qin Hai, and Qin Hai is not Qu Wu's person, and Chen Yuan and they can't help Qin Hai.
Of course, it's just for now. Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, Chen Yuan After they return to the capital, they may not know how to wear Qin Hai's shoes, these things have nothing to do with the Mo Kong Dynasty.
Liu Shuo didn't dare to persuade Mo Kongchao, so he could only agree. But he thought about it, this matter had to be discussed with Qin Hai, and Qin Hai couldn't be allowed to be this villain alone. As for how he could help Qin Hai, he didn't have a good way for a while.
The night passed in a hurry. Early the next morning, Mo Kongchao arranged for the office to call several private ceramic factories in Quwu City to inform them that the Kusella Company was going to conduct an inspection, and he led Chen Yuan, Takamura Takehiko, and others to visit several state-owned enterprises first.
Hearing that some Japanese businessmen came to visit, and there is a possibility of investing huge sums of money in joint ventures, the leaders of Quwu No. 1 Ceramics Factory, No. 2 Ceramics Factory and other enterprises were so excited that they did not sleep all night, and the personnel of the command factory office hung up the big red banner overnight, and cleaned up the factory area again, and did enough superficial work.
Although Takehiko Takamura had ten thousand unhappiness in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he could only reluctantly follow everyone to investigate, and he had to pretend to be interested. Seeing that the Japanese guests were interested, Chen Yuan and others were naturally very interested, leading Takehiko Takamura to walk around one workshop after another, and went to the factory office to see the various honors won by the factory over the years, and they were very busy.
Mo Kongchao knew that this qiē was just acting, while Chen Yuan and the others were involved in the play without knowing it, and he really felt angry and funny. (To be continued......)
