Tao Tang Li Luo and his entourage did not return to the factory until the 23rd, and they temporarily changed their itinerary after they went out, and turned the road to inspect Red Star's foreign investment project in Anzhou.

The group's audit team pointed out that Red Star Company has serious potential losses, and in addition to the headquarters, the most serious is the Anzhou project. This project was officially approved by the group in 2010, when the country's investment of 4 trillion yuan had just taken effect, and the heavy vehicle market was extremely hot, so it engaged in a joint venture project with Anzhou heavy vehicle axle, hoping to use the market and technology of Anzhou heavy vehicle, not only to enter the field of heavy vehicles, but also to drive the growth of Red Star's vehicle parts sector. The total investment of the project is 1.2 billion, and Anhong Vehicle Co., Ltd. with independent legal personality has been established, with an equity ratio of 50% each. The chairman of the board of directors is concurrently served by Song Yue (after Song Yue's accident, Luo Chong is the acting chairman of the board with the approval of the headquarters), the general manager is sent by Anzhou Heavy Truck, and the financial director is sent by Red Star. The estimated construction time of the project is 24 months (Anzhou mainly invests in land, plant equipment and technology), but so far, the time has been postponed for one year and two months, and the project has not yet been completed, mainly due to the overrun of the project budget, at the end of 2012, Anhong company submitted an application for a supplementary budget, The total investment increased from 1.2 billion to 1.65 billion, and the board of directors of Anhong Company approved the budget, but it was stuck by the brilliant headquarters, and it was stuck in Feng Shizhao, the new leader of the brilliant group. After the negotiation between the headquarters of Brilliant Group and Anzhou, the scale of the project has been reduced, the total budget has been reduced to 1.38 billion, and according to the originally agreed equity ratio, Red Star Company still needs to invest 90 million yuan. At that time, Red Star's operation was already very difficult, Song Yue hoped that the headquarters would pay the money, but the headquarters did not pay, and the loan was difficult to implement for a while. So I froze there. Soon, Yang Wenhuan and Song Yue had accidents one after another, and Luo Chong, who was ordered to temporarily act as chairman, only went to Anzhou twice, and only held an unsuccessful board meeting, and no problems were solved.

This time, Tao Tang made a business trip to Anzhou, inspected the Anhong Company, which had been partially put into production, listened to the report of the Anhong Company, and held talks with the top management of Anzhou Heavy Truck, which was regarded as restarting the project. But what puzzled Li Luo was that if Tao Tang's inspection of An Hong was improvised, it proved that he was the number one who had no success in doing things. Seriously inconsistent with their identity. If there was a plan, then why not bring Luo Chong and the company's personnel in charge of the project? Tao Tang's conversation at Anhong and his conversation with Anzhou Heavy Truck prove that he has his own considerations for the project, and it is not like an impromptu motion. So, what does it mean to put aside Luo Chong? Li Luo felt incomprehensible.

This business trip was a full communication between Li Luo, the executive vice president, and Tao Tang, the chairman and general manager, and one night, the two even talked about it in Tao Tang's room at half past one in the morning. The current market situation and subsequent development of Red Star Company had an excellent atmosphere, and they were happy with each other. Originally, Li Luo had some opinions about some of the people who were named by Tao Tang (mainly the personnel of the marketing department), because of the smooth communication. The unhappiness in Li Luo's heart weakened.

After Tao Tang returned to the factory, after Xiao Zhao and Zhao Qingmin passed the phone call, that night, a team meeting was held in the conference room on the third floor of Building 3, and the administrative leaders of the main management departments attended the meeting.

Tao Tang presided over the meeting. First of all, I listened to Ma Guangming's report on this month's production. Now that the situation has become clear, the output value of 600 million yuan this month is not a big problem, and there may be a slight surplus. However, according to the itemized analysis, the mining machine sector is determined to be overcompleted. The agricultural machinery sector can also be completed, and the vehicle parts sector failed to complete the monthly operation order, mainly because the gearbox dragged its feet.

"What is the main reason why the vehicle parts are not planned?" In fact, Tao Tang has been paying attention to production and operation. During the market visit and research, he called the production department every day to inquire about the production progress.

"This responsibility is not in the production port, nor in the procurement, but with me." Chief Engineer Jiang Shangyun lifted his glasses and said slowly, "This month, two batches of boxes were found to have quality problems, and they were delayed for about six days, and I notified them to suspend production." ”

"I heard about the situation, and at first it was determined that it was a material problem, and then it was said that it was not. What exactly is the reason? Tao Tang asked.

"The material is basically qualified. However, there is a problem of the overall lower limit, and Mr. Qiu has already dealt with the last batch of materials, and the other party agreed to replace it. The main problem is the casting of the fourth branch, but it has been solved......"

"Understood. There was no delay in delivery, right? Tao Tang looked at Liu Shulin, who was attending the meeting.

"It didn't affect the supply, Mr. Tao."

"That's good." Tao Tang nodded, "Comrades, this month, everyone worked together to make 600 million, basically completing the goal we set, which is very good." Whether it is marketing, purchasing, or production command departments have played their due subjective initiative, especially the excellent work of the marketing and purchasing departments has laid the foundation for the completion of production tasks. As of yesterday, the marketing department has received a total of 408 million yuan, of which the current exchange accounts for 65%, according to Mr. Li's judgment, two days after tomorrow, it is expected that there will be about 29 million payments to be received. Mr. Qiu's work was also completed very well, and he used about 60% of the budget to ensure the materials used in production, and made a meritorious service. The outsourcing of the production department is also good, and procurement, production and marketing are the number one contributors to the completion of this month's production tasks. I suggest that meritorious units be rewarded, and ask Mr. Ma to take the lead in coming up with an opinion, discuss it with all parties, report it to me, and cash it out when the salary is paid. For the quality problems in production, please take the lead in carefully sorting out and verifying, the punishment of the punishment, the reward of the reward, the flaws are not concealed, but the problem cannot be covered up because the task is basically completed. I said that the quality department's assessment of quality problems is soft, and we should pay attention to correcting deviations in this month's assessment...... Comrade Liu Xinjun, the results of this month's assessment are out, right? ”

Tao Tang thinks that Jiang Shangyun's shortcoming is that the management is too soft, but the prestige of this old chief engineer, who is more than ten years older than himself, in Red Star is quite high.

"Not yet...... The detailed data will not be available until around the 10th of next month. Mr. Tao, our salary and assessment are carried out in the wrong month, and now the salary for May is paid with the assessment results in April......" Liu Xinjun, who was also present at the meeting, replied.

"Well, there's no way around it. The approach is the same for all plants. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the assessment in May and to be stricter. ”

"Yes."

"Comrades, this time Mr. Li and I went out for a few days and ran to two provinces and three cities. It was very intense and very rewarding. In addition to the mining machinery market, I have walked through the main markets of agricultural machinery and vehicle parts, so that I, a new ding, have a more intuitive understanding of the market we operate, and I also met the main person in charge of the partner...... In general, we Red Star still has strength, and the other party attaches more importance to it, especially in the vehicle parts market, and feels that there is great potential for growth. This time, the comrades from the institute also went with us and got some new product research and development agreements. We still have to study how to do it in detail, but quickly. I have a positive and cautious attitude towards my partners. I feel that we have urgent requirements for product structure adjustment, but we can't do it blindly. For a big stall like our Red Star, there are already a lot of product varieties at present, and I asked Mr. Li and the production department for some numbers before the business trip. There are more than 2,000 kinds of our products, and there are more than 500 kinds of larger ones, I mean the unit price of tens of thousands of yuan. However, there are only about 100 kinds of stable orders. This is where the necessity of structural adjustment lies. I have more time outside, and I listened to Mr. Li make a more in-depth analysis, and think that the current product varieties are too complicated, and a large part of the products with unclear market demand should be gradually withdrawn. I agree with Mr. Li's judgment in principle. Throughout the successful enterprises at home and abroad, all have a clear business focus, and without the focus, they will not form an advantage. will not dominate the market. Ten fingers catch fleas, I'm afraid I can't catch one. Everyone knows that there are few successful people in diversified operations. ”

Tao Tang took a sip of tea and looked at Xu Deyu, who was sitting in the corner and burying his head in the record, he could always see this poor woman in the recent meeting, but they never spoke to each other again.

Li Luo listened to Tao Tang calmly arranging the work, and was envious. He had been "coveting" that chair for a long time, and he thought that he was qualified to sit on it in terms of ability and seniority. But creation makes people, and there is always a step or two behind. After Tao Tang took office, Li Luo had talked to his "eyeliner" at the headquarters about this matter, and the other party must have hoped that he would improve, there was no doubt about this, but the other party believed that it was the battle between Li Luo and Song Yue that ruined the opportunity. He didn't want to admit this conclusion on his lips, but he still agreed with it in his heart. While he spared no effort to attack Song Yue, Song Yue must also be slandering him and ruining his low-hanging fruit. Therefore, the intimate friend said, don't make a similar mistake this time, with the understanding of Tao, he will never settle for that position, he has greater ambitions, rather than attacking head-on, it is better to save the country with a curve.

Friend's "advice" Li Luo fully understood. During this time, he was indeed reflecting on himself, and his style was quietly changing. If Li Luo is eyeing that position in order to make money like Song Yue, it is an insult to him, what Li Luo wants is power, and it is to control the power of others. In the eyes of the lower level who don't know the insider, the executive deputy general manager is close to the peak, but Li Luo knows that the difference brought by this step is huge, just like now, Tao Tang, a newcomer, can freely comment on the country, but some words are arrogant if they are said by themselves.

The chat on the phone was not short, and the other party talked about the employment of people under the system, "On the whole, we say that we are appointing people as virtuous, and the people are scolding and appointing people as relatives, but in fact, it is not right." The first place in the cadre line is neither meritocracy nor cronyism, but meritocracy. You can arrange whoever your superiors want you to arrange, otherwise your superiors will be unhappy and your position will be unstable. ”

Li Luo understood that this was a friend who advised him not to work against the organization, "What you said, I understand." ”

"The second is to let others help. These days, how can you do it without a few good friends to help? It's a fool to go it alone, and you won't go far. The third is to make money for others. Money is more reliable than relationships, isn't it? Whoever can bring financial benefits to themselves will be used. It's good to be able to rank fourth at most. If you want me to see it, 'pro' is the most unreliable ......"

Li Luo's thoughts retracted and he glanced at Tao Tang, who was still talking. Which one is he? It is certainly not possible to talk about making money for others, but it is not good to say now, 'the jade test must be burned for three days, and it must wait for seven years to distinguish it', it is too early to speak. But I can't see that he follows the meritocracy, this guy is still young after all, and the style of this month has a bit of a taste of making enemies everywhere......

Tao Tang is still talking, "Now it seems that in addition to the old product of the red star of the mining machine, the gearbox is probably the most potential product." Because of its high technical content, high added value, and large profit margins. In recent years, the domestic automobile market has grown rapidly, and it is already the world's largest market, with the total production and sales of various vehicles exceeding 20 million units, which gives us a stage to fully display. In the next step, we will analyze the prospects and profitability of each sector in detail, and try to be as scientific and objective as possible, because we must not make mistakes. So I discussed with Mr. Li, this time we are really going to set up a group, specializing in this matter, I will be the team leader, Secretary Zhao, Mr. Li and Mr. Luo are the deputy team leaders, and the rest of the company leaders and leaders of relevant departments and key personnel will participate in organizing a capable team to use one or two months to make an overall opinion on product structure adjustment...... This result should be included in the mid-term evaluation report of the 12th Five-Year Plan, and some necessary preparations should be made for the 13th Five-Year Plan. We are not dealing with the above, but we are making real adjustments, and this adjustment must be based on reality. Let's put it another way, we must answer our stall, how to eat, and what conditions are needed for development. Until there is a better market and product, what is existing cannot be easily discarded. Therefore, the production in June is still full, I feel that the production boom is up, and the anger can not be discharged, Mr. Ma, June is the last month of the second quarter, how much have you arranged? ”

"680 million." Ma Guangming replied, "This plan is based on the second quarter plan, and the opinions of the marketing department have been sought. ”

He was talking about the marketing department, not Li Luo. Although the discord between Ma Guangming and Li Luo is not as serious as Han Zhiyong, it is not a secret at the top of Red Star. Sure enough, Li Luo snorted and expressed his dissatisfaction.

"So, Mr. Luo, after taking out 680 million yuan, what is the concept of the plan for the second quarter?"

"Still can't be done." Luo Chong said, "The formulation of the second quarter plan itself is unreasonable, but after five or six months of assault, coupled with the gradual increase in secondary income, we are expected to complete 33 billion in the first half of the year." If this momentum can be maintained in the second half of the year, it is expected to achieve 85~9 billion for the whole year. ”

Due to the characteristics of some of Red Star's products, especially mining machine products, the output value in the second half of the year is generally higher than that of the working year, which is already a law, so Ma Guangming has such a judgment, otherwise, it is a joke to make 3000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 (To be continued......)
