(The old ape welcomes your valuable comments and suggestions!!) Improve the work. )
Founded in 1950, Minmetals Group is now an international mining company, mainly engaged in the exploration, mining, smelting, processing, trade of metal mineral products, as well as finance, real estate, mining and metallurgical science and technology, overseas institutions in 28 countries and regions around the world, with 177,000 employees, holding 9 domestic and foreign listed companies, with total assets of 242.1 billion yuan. At present, China Minmetals has an annual operating income of 355.2 billion yuan and a total profit of 12.765 billion yuan, ranking 169th among the world's top 500 companies, of which it ranks 4th among metal enterprises.
Kuang Guoqiang, the president of Minmetals Group, is not tall, but he is very capable, especially a pair of eyes, which give people a deep and shrewd feeling, as if he can see through people's hearts at once.
At this time, Kuang Guoqiang sat in the office, holding a lit cigarette between his fingers, thinking about Jiang Tao's visit to Minmetals Group.
Originally, Kuang Guoqiang was inspecting South Korea, and after receiving a call from Governor Du Yutian and Vice Governor Zhao Pingyuan, he took a plane back overnight after thinking about it again.
Although Kuang Guoqiang does not know Jiang Tao, but he has also heard of his name for a long time, on the one hand, Jiang Tao's political achievements are outstanding, and he has recently successfully signed a large order with the military, I heard that he still has a strong background, and his future prospects are limitless; On the other hand, Jiang Tao's wife Jiang Yingying is the largest private entrepreneur in Qilu Province, with assets of more than 100 million, as if this Shuangjiang Group was founded by Jiang Tao. Although Kuang Guoqiang is worth a lot of money, it seems that he is still a little worse than Jiang Tao.
Human nature has a servile side, and when they meet a strong person, they will unconsciously show it. Kuang Guoqiang didn't dare to underestimate Jiang Tao, and felt that associating with Jiang Tao would be of great benefit to him, so he made a decision and flew back to Province A.
Jiang Tao, Liu Renjie, and Ma Zonghan had just returned to their rooms after breakfast in the hotel's restaurant, when Zhao Pingyuan drove over.
"Brother Jiang, I have already contacted Kuang Guoqiang of Minmetals Group, shall we go over later?" Zhao Pingyuan sat on the sofa and said.
"Okay, Brother Zhao, please wait a while, I want to consult the question, this time I have to learn from the experience, the listing of Sinotruk Group is the trend of the times." Jiang Tao opened the notebook he carried with him as he spoke, and wrote something open.
Zhao Pingyuan waited for more than half an hour before Jiang Tao closed his notebook and stood up, "I'm sorry Brother Zhao, I've kept you waiting." ”
"Hehe, I kind of know why your work is so good, you really care. Let's go! Zhao Pingyuan said with a smile.
Jiang Tao didn't let Ma Zonghan drive, and called Liu Renjie to take Zhao Pingyuan's car to Minmetals Group.
After receiving a call from Zhao Pingyuan, Kuang Guoqiang was waiting under the office building early, and several other vice presidents of the group stood beside him.
As soon as Zhao Pingyuan's car stopped, Kuang Guoqiang greeted him, stretched out his hands to Jiang Tao, turned his head and asked, "Vice Governor Zhao, this is President Jiang, right?" ”
Seeing Kuang Guoqiang shaking hands with Jiang Tao first, Zhao Pingyuan didn't mind at all, and said with a smile: "Mr. Kuang, he is Chairman Jiang Tao of Qilu Heavy Duty Truck, you are all big entrepreneurs, big bosses!" ”
"Jiang Dong, welcome to Minmetals Group to guide the work!" Kuang Guoqiang held Jiang Tao's hand and shook it vigorously and said.
"Mr. Kuang, I'm here to learn from the scriptures, and I'm causing you trouble." Jiang Tao said politely.
"Hehe, you're welcome to your family, Jiang Dong, let me introduce you to my deputies." Kuang Guoqiang said with a smile, and then introduced several vice presidents of the group to Jiang Tao one by one.
Jiang Tao also introduced Liu Renjie to them.
After some politeness, Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie were invited into the reception room.
"Mr. Kuang, Chairman Jiang came this time to learn from the experience of the listing of Minmetals Group, and Qilu Heavy Duty Truck Group wants to go public." Zhao Pingyuan said to Kuang Guoqiang.
"Hehe, this is a good thing, they are all state-owned enterprises, and they should be helped." Kuang Guoqiang said with a smile.
"That's good Mr. Kuang, but I asked when I asked."
"Know everything!"
Jiang Tao had extensive exchanges with Kuang Guoqiang on the issue of his confusion about the listing of state-owned enterprises. After all, Minmetals Group has been listed for many years and has accumulated rich experience, and Kuang Guoqiang gave detailed answers to Jiang Tao's questions. Even Zhao Pingyuan and Liu Renjie, who were sitting next to them, nodded their heads again and again and learned a lot of knowledge.
The conversation lasted for more than two hours, Jiang Tao kept his expression impressed, his eyes staring directly at Kuang Guoqiang, and from time to time he wrote and drew in his notebook, for fear of missing a word. Kuang Guoqiang secretly said in his heart: This Jiang Tao is so serious and studious, he is really not a thing in the pool, he will definitely rise to the top one day.
"Jiang Dong, in fact, I have also had your concerns, the pros and cons of overseas listing are not praised, and the purpose of overseas capital investment is to return, after all, the bulk of the profit is still in China." Kuang Guoqiang said.
"Hehe, Mr. Kuang! To tell you the truth, I am from the countryside, and my vision is too narrow, and I don't want to share my family's money with outsiders, but I am also relieved to hear your explanation. Jiang Tao said with a smile.
"Hehe, Mr. Jiang, you are the richest rural person." Kuang Guoqiang said.
"Mr. Kuang, I have understood the steps and methods of the listing of state-owned enterprises you said, can I look at the financial statements of your group? Let's compare it to what you did before you went public. Jiang Tao asked.
"This, hehe, I can ask the financial department to make a comparison of the data for you, and the report can't be shown to you." Kuang Guoqiang said embarrassedly.
Jiang Tao's face suddenly turned red, he knew in his heart that he had committed a taboo in the mall, and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Kuang, look! I'm going to make you laugh, I really don't understand this. ”
"It's okay, the main thing is that there are a lot of secret matters involved in the financial statements, I'm sorry Jiang Dong." Kuang Guoqiang hurriedly apologized.
"Mr. Kuang! I think so, I will organize relevant personnel to come here as soon as I go back, after all, I am not an expert, and I am afraid that some things still need them to study carefully, I am a front station. Jiang Tao said.
"Yes, I will have someone sort out the relevant information and provide it to you." Kuang Guoqiang said.
"Thank you! Mr. Kuang, I hope you have time to go to Qilu Heavy Duty Truck to have a look. Jiang Tao said.
"Hehe, I should visit when I have time." Kuang Guoqiang said.
Zhao Pingyuan saw that the conversation between Jiang Tao and Kuang Guoqiang had come to an end, stood up and said: "Mr. Kuang, Jiang Dong, I am embarrassed to disturb you when I see you talking so speculatively, my stomach is singing an empty plan." ”
Kuang Guoqiang raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "Alas, it's past twelve o'clock, I'm sorry, let's go to dinner." Jiang Dong, I have set a seat in Xiaojiangnan, and I am fortunate to be able to meet your friend Sansheng. ”
"Mr. Kuang, then bother." Jiang Tao said with a slight smile.
Zhao Pingyuan knew that Rongcheng's Little Jiangnan Hotel was a high-end hotel, and a simple meal in it would cost more than 10,000 yuan, and it seemed that Kuang Guoqiang was really willing to pay for Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao didn't know the situation in Xiao Jiangnan, got into Zhao Pingyuan's car, followed Kuang Guoqiang's car, and drove out of the city until he came to a scenic mountain pass.
After getting out of the car, Jiang Tao was immediately stunned by everything in front of him, a huge fiberglass building was presented in front of him, with three or four thousand square meters, and the main entrance was inlaid with three glittering big characters "Little Jiangnan".
Under the leadership of the welcome lady, everyone walked into the main entrance, and suddenly a southern scenery appeared in front of them. It is a rockery that is rushing to the gate, a clear spring flies straight down from the top of the mountain, it is more than ten meters high, the water flows into the pool below, splashes a burst of water mist, it is also quite magnificent. Turning the rockery, a small lake comes into view, the water surface is more than 600 square meters, the lake water is very clear, and a big red carp swims freely in the water. The lake is a white sand beach with many bamboo loungers, which is full of fun. Further in, there are many tall tropical trees with verdant foliage and blooming flowers. Jiang Tao saw that there was an all-wood hut every few tens of meters, obviously this was a private room in the restaurant.
Jiang Tao secretly marveled at the ingenuity of the boss, and the Jiangnan atmosphere created, coupled with the soothing, soft, and faint music, can really make urbanites who are accustomed to fast pace get a good relaxation. Everything in front of him couldn't help but remind Jiang Tao of the Qingcheng Hall in the capital, he turned his head to look at Zhao Pingyuan, and found that he was also looking at himself with a smile.
Walking in this comfortable environment, the steps become much more casual. The welcome lady took Jiang Tao and the others to a wooden house, stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Sir, this is your order to watch the waves by the sea, please come in!" ”
Kuang Guoqiang let Zhao Pingyuan, Jiang Tao, and Liu Renjie into the wooden house, and he and a few escorts then walked in.
The dish is a delicacy of the mountains and seas, a delicacy; The wine is an old cellar, the aroma is tangy, because Jiang Tao does not drink, the banquet is very fast, everyone talks and laughs, the atmosphere is harmonious, more than an hour later, the banquet has come to an end.
Jiang Tao picked up the glass full of drinks, got up and said: "Vice Governor Zhao, Mr. Kuang, this time I came to Province A, I not only learned experience, but also gained friendship, I thank you on behalf of 30,000 Sinotruk people!" I'll give you a drink! ”
Zhao Pingyuan and Kuang Guoqiang also stood up with their wine glasses, and the three of them raised their glasses and drank them all.
Jiang Tao toasted several other vice presidents who accompanied him, Liu Renjie saw Jiang Tao finish a round of wine, and then got up and saluted, but he drank not a drink but a high degree of liquor, this circle down, a pound of liquor into Liu Renjie's stomach, Zhao Pingyuan and Kuang Guoqiang secretly said: This person has a lot of alcohol!
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and the banquet was over, Jiang Tao said to Zhao Pingyuan: "Vice Governor Zhao, I will go back directly from here on the highway, and I would like to ask you to express your gratitude to Secretary Xue and Governor Du on my behalf." ”
"Mr. Jiang, can't you stay a few more days? The two of us have a good time catching up. Zhao Pingyuan took Jiang Tao's hand and said.
"Hehe, Vice Governor Zhao, there will be a chance in the future, I will organize people to come to Minmetals Group when I go back, and I can't delay." Jiang Tao said.
"That's good! Have a nice trip! Zhao Pingyuan shook Jiang Tao's hand vigorously and said.
Jiang Tao turned around and shook hands with Kuang Guoqiang to say goodbye: "Mr. Kuang, thank you in two words!" After my people came, I asked you for more guidance. ”
"Mr. Jiang is polite, I will arrange it, the state-owned enterprises in the country are a game of chess, regardless of you and me." Kuang Guoqiang said.
After Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie said goodbye to Zhao Pingyuan and others, they got into the car and embarked on the way back.
Back to Qilu Heavy Duty Truck Group, Jiang Tao immediately held an enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee, and all the middle-level cadres of the group participated in the meeting. Finally, through a vote, all members of the Standing Committee unanimously passed the resolution of Qilu Heavy Duty Truck Group's overseas listing.
Two days later, a group of 10 people from Sinotruk arrived at Minmetals Group in Province A under the leadership of Tang Zhaozhong, vice president of the group.
A year later, with the approval of the Provincial Party Committee, Sinotruk Group was successfully restructured, with 51% of the shares held by the state, and successfully listed in Hong Kong and Singapore, raising 2.5 billion US dollars.
Under the leadership of Jiang Tao, Sinotruk Group developed rapidly, and in the following three years, Sinotruk Group acquired a number of large and medium-sized foreign enterprises, involving shipbuilding, road and bridge engineering, automobile manufacturing and other industries. The subsidiaries are located in more than 20 countries and regions around the world, with 150,000 employees and total assets of more than 189 billion yuan, successfully breaking into the world's top 500, ranking 388th, of which the automobile manufacturing industry ranks fifth in the world.
Jibei City, Qilu Province, the 48th floor of the newly built headquarters building of Sinotruk Group.
Jiang Tao stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows, looking at the high-rise buildings in the distance, and the red afterglow of the sunset draped over those glass curtain walls, which looked particularly delicate.
Six years after joining Qilu Heavy Duty Truck, Jiang Tao has witnessed the development and changes of Heavy Duty Truck, just like a father who brought a toddler to a teenager. The colorful light spots reflected by the glass curtain wall in the distance reminded Jiang Tao of the bright fireworks in the night sky he saw in his hometown during the Spring Festival that year.
Jiang Tao would not have thought that in a few months, his life was about to undergo another transformation!!
