The 10-day industrial and machinery and machinery equipment exhibition held by Chinese industrial enterprises and machinery manufacturing enterprises in Karachi was a great success, and the contract intention amount was as high as 270 million US dollars, which made the leaders of the delegation and the heads of the exhibitors of the delegation laugh crookedly, before coming to Pakistan, who would have thought that a Pakistan could have such a large demand for industrial equipment?

The next night, the Consulate General of the Republic of China in Karachi held a grand celebration banquet for the delegation, at the celebration banquet, Director Fan held Chen Geng's hand tightly and refused to let go: "Xiao Chen, I have to toast you with a glass of wine, if it weren't for your insistence on letting everyone come out, who would have thought that the outside world would be so exciting?" ”

The entire delegation has signed 270 million contracts of intent, of which more than 200 million have been confirmed, and an advance payment of $10 million has been made, which is too precious for a republic that is short of foreign exchange and is eager to sell blood.

Chen Geng said modestly: "I didn't actually do anything, the leaders and everyone who really did the work were ......."

"Xiao Chen, what you said is not true," Without waiting for Chen Geng to finish speaking, Director Zhen, who was standing on the side, deliberately turned his face and said, "How much contribution have you made to Runhua Industry, are we all blind and can't see?" ”

Chen Geng smiled bitterly, the two people in front of him, one is the director of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, the other is the director of the Ministry of Machinery Industry, both of them can be called high-powered and promising, they said so, what else can they say?

Director Fan refused to let Chen Geng go like this, after seeing the magic of Chen Geng, he couldn't wait to squeeze Chen Geng dry, there were countless questions he wanted to ask about the news, but a few days ago Chen Geng hid in Islamabad, and he couldn't reach it, and now Chen Geng is in front of him, how can he be willing to miss it? He asked unceremoniously: "Xiao Chen, this trip, our big guys have a lot of confidence, what you said before you went abroad is right, it's not that no one buys our country's industrial products, but we haven't found a suitable market......

After a pause, seeing that Chen Geng was listening carefully, he said, "What do you think we should do next?" ”

"This ......"

Chen Gengzheng hesitated how to excuse it, Director Zhen's eyes were sharp, and he immediately said: "Xiao Chen, you have also seen that our company is having a hard time in China, you have a smart head, if there is any good way, just say it, don't hide it." ”

Having said all that, what else can Chen Geng say? After hesitating for a moment, Chen Geng finally nodded: "Okay, then I'll just say it casually, it's actually very simple, let's continue to adhere to the method of 'going out',"

"Going out? How so? Director Zhen and Director Fan glanced at each other, and the two asked in unison.

"It literally, go out," Chen Geng made a gesture: "My view is that with the progress of reform and opening up, more and more foreign enterprises have come to invest in our country, if we only stare at the domestic one-third of an acre, the result must be that one-third of an acre of land can not be kept: the same kind of machine tools, although the price of foreign ones is higher, but the precision is good, the quality is stable, and the durability is good. In many cases, domestic machine tools directly delay production. ”

Director Zhen and Director Fan glanced at each other and nodded wordlessly, both feeling a little heavy.

Indeed, although the price of domestic machine tools is cheap, but the accuracy is poor, the quality is not stable enough, the use of a period of time after a sharp drop in precision abounds, more terrible is that it is relatively easy to break, it is precisely because of these reasons, with the reform and opening up, the life of these domestic machine tool enterprises is becoming more and more sad day by day, this is an indisputable fact.

It's just that Chen Geng's words made Director Fan more and more puzzled: "Since foreign machine tools are better than ours, shouldn't we consolidate our base first?" Go out ......"

"Going out is looking for death, don't you think?" Without waiting for Director Fan to finish speaking, Chen Geng took over with a smile: This is the truth that if you go outside, you must first settle inside.

"That's right." Director Fan nodded, waiting for Chen Geng to continue.

Chen Geng: "In this world, although there are many developed countries, but in fact, more than two-thirds of the countries are underdeveloped, underdeveloped and extremely underdeveloped countries, among the more than 100 underdeveloped countries, almost all countries do not have their own complete industrial base, although our Republic is a third world country, but it has a good industrial base, and has a good international credit among the third world countries, which is the most valuable wealth left to us by the older generation of revolutionaries.

For these third world countries, the first thing to solve is the problem of having and not, not the problem of good and bad, only to solve the problem of having and not to talk about the follow-up development, this is the market of our national machine tool industry and industrial manufacturing enterprises. ”

"Lao Fan, this is better than listening to your words and reading a book for ten years." After listening to Chen Geng, Director Zhen said to Director Fan with emotion.

"The back waves of the rivers and lakes push the front waves, and if you don't accept it, you can't do it." Director Fan also nodded with emotion, looked at Chen Geng and said with emotion: "Xiao Chen, we understand what you mean, you are right, we want to take the initiative to go out, but our company does not have similar experience, do you have any suggestions?" ”

Chen Geng didn't dare to take it, and said cautiously: "Director Fan, you are polite, I actually said it casually just now......

"Then you just go on to talk about it casually," Director Fan said humorously: "You just say it casually, what about us, just listen to it casually, okay?" ”

All the words have been said to this point, what else can Chen Geng say? After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded: "I think our country can organize more enterprises to go abroad to participate in similar industrial and mechanical equipment exhibitions." ”

"Attending industrial and mechanical equipment exhibitions? Or is it foreign? Director Fan frowned.

Director Zhen said puzzledly: "Xiao Chen, foreign industrial and mechanical equipment exhibitions, they are all very high-end exhibitions, our companies go to participate in the exhibition, this ......"

Chen Geng understands what he means, such as those industrial and mechanical equipment exhibitions held by developed capitalist countries such as Europe, Japan, and the United States, and the participating companies are either leaders in the same industry, or the world's top 500 enterprises, with advanced technology, reliable and stable product performance, although the price is a little expensive, but it can't stand up to be easy to use, can our country's products be sold in the world?

The words have already been said to this part, Chen Geng simply said more, and said with a smile: "In fact, the leaders of many third world countries are still very far-sighted, knowing that they cannot develop their country only by selling resources, and only by developing industry can the people of their country live a happy life, but for many years, our country's industrial enterprises are accustomed to the planned economy and are not very suitable for competition in the market economyIn this case, we should take the initiative to go out.

Although our products are somewhat insufficient, they can also meet the needs of most of the third world countries that are interested in developing their own national industries, and in this process, we can continue to improve our technology, enhance the scientific and technological content of our products, and finally slowly close and catch up with the comfortable gap with the West.

As for the competition with foreign companies, I think this is actually a good thing, although some companies will fall in the process, but the big waves wash the sand, and in the end all that is left is gold. ”

Chen Geng's words made Director Zhen and Director Fan ponder, and they had to admit that Chen Geng's words were indeed very reasonable.

"Comrade Xiao Chen, have you ever thought about the work of ministries and commissions?" Director Fan suddenly spoke: "As long as you look at our Foreign Trade Department, I promise to help you at least get a deputy department." ”

Deputy Director of the Ministry of Foreign Trade? Chen Geng was stunned for a moment, Director Fan really valued himself, but Chen Geng still politely declined Director Fan's kindness, saying that he preferred to stay in the company.

"Since Xiao Chen, you like to stay in the company, then I won't be reluctant," Director Fan sighed, such an excellent talent was unwilling to come to the Ministry of Foreign Trade, which made him very unhappy, but he still said: "After I go back, I will make a detailed report to the leaders of this exhibition, if the ministry really decides to organize our domestic enterprises to participate in foreign exhibitions, Xiao Chen, you can't shirk when the time comes." ”

Hearing the meaning of Director Fan's words, Chen Geng said happily: "If there is anything that can be used in me, I can't give up my definition!" ”

"That's good, that's good." Director Fan and Director Zhen nodded with relief.

“…… In the roadside bomb attack that just happened, the CCP caused ...... The company said that in view of the severe security situation in the local area, it is carefully considering whether to withdraw...... "At this time, a burst of unclear content in the news reached Chen Geng's ears.

"What's wrong?" Looking at Chen Geng's listening, Director Fan hurriedly asked.

"The ...... that was shown in the news just now"

"Oh, you said the Persian Gulf War," said Director Fan, laughing: "Now that Iraq and Iran are in full swing, even a lot of companies that have invested in the region have fallen into bad luck, and this report is that an American company has been attacked...... Lao Zhen, it seems like this, right? ”

"That's right." Director Zhen nodded.

Persian Gulf War? Chen Geng suddenly realized how tragic this war was, of course Chen Geng knew that this war that began in 1980 was still going on, and in order to win the war, the means of war were becoming more and more exhaustive, and the tactics of "ship raid warfare" even many non-belligerents were unlucky...... Well?! (To be continued.) )
