581 Environmental Pioneers
The Yanling County Government didn't know whether it was unintentional or intentional, and actually made such a large plaque for Xie Mingcheng, which obviously didn't want Xie Mingcheng to take it, right? However, Xie Mingcheng also had her own way, she directly handed the plaque to Lin Zhenhua and asked him to put it in the trunk of the off-road vehicle driven by Hanhua, and pull it away when he went down the mountain. Xie Mingcheng has already said that she plans to build an NGO with a few like-minded friends in the future to promote environmental protection, and this plaque is just right to hang in her office.
After several rounds of interrogation of Feng Chengzhi, Chen Tian was convinced that his actions were an isolated incident and that there was no international political conspiracy or organized crime. But even so, the nature of Feng Chengzhi's matter is bad enough, Chen Tian took him away directly when he returned to Beijing, and as for how to deal with it in the future, Lin Zhenhua and others no longer cared.
After Jingxi City and the state security department jointly reported the matter to the central government, the state quickly issued a series of regulations on the management of chemical industrial projects, listing a set of lists of toxic chemicals that are strictly prohibited from producing, storing and transporting in Chinese mainland, and stipulating the site selection requirements and environmental impact assessment requirements for various chemical projects that are allowed to be built.
In accordance with the newly promulgated standards of the state, when the provinces and municipalities investigated the projects that have been put into production and started within their jurisdictions, several projects involving highly toxic chemical raw materials were discovered, and they were stopped in a timely manner, eliminating many major safety hazards. After Xie Mingcheng got the news, he was ecstatic and felt that his efforts had been unexpectedly rewarded.
"Mr. Lin, this is so unfair." Walking on the boulevard in Jingxi, Xie Mingcheng said to Lin Zhenhua in a somewhat coquettish tone.
"What's unfair?" Lin Zhenhua asked with a smile, although they had only been together for a few days, Xie Mingcheng's enthusiasm and pungency left a good impression on him. In Xie Mingcheng's body, Lin Zhenhua can see some shadows of He Lan, of course, it was He Lan 10 years ago.
Xie Mingcheng said: "My friends and I have been calling for local governments to pay attention to environmental protection, but the results are not as effective as your phone call. You see, you only made a phone call, and then you called Director Chen, and the construction of the Yanling Chemical Plant was immediately stopped. Subsequently, the state quickly issued relevant regulations to thoroughly investigate chemical construction projects nationwide. The gap between this person and man is really too big. ”
Lin Zhenhua asked, "So how do you think the difference between us is formed?" ”
"How else can that be formed, you are the CEO of a large enterprise group, and you have the right to speak." Xie Mingcheng said.
"You're only half right." Lin Zhenhua said.
"How?" Xie Mingcheng asked.
Lin Zhenhua said: "Indeed, I am quite familiar with Director Chen Tian, including some familiar friends in the State Development Planning Commission and other units, and I can have a relatively smooth communication channel, which is the reason why I can get some things done. But on the other hand, the reason is that I can respect practice and rely on solid knowledge to do things, rather than being like you, with enthusiasm and no professional knowledge. If you think about it, if it weren't for Lao Hu seeing that something was wrong with the problem and everyone blindly thinking about the problem according to the standards of a laundry detergent factory, then this matter would not have been solved until now. ”
"Well, well, I'll admit that I have no social experience, and I don't have the expertise." When it came to this question, Xie Mingcheng wilted, and she had to admit that Lin Zhenhua and Hu Fei were much stronger than her. Especially Hu Fei, just by relying on some cost-benefit analysis, she was able to find that there was a problem in the Yanling Chemical Plant, and Xie Mingcheng thought that he couldn't compare with this kind of ability.
"Xiao Xie, you are still young, and it is very good that you have the enthusiasm to do things, but you must pay attention to the ways and methods, and learn to think from the other party's point of view. Environmental protection is a very important thing, but if you can't think from the other side's point of view, it is impossible for people to accept your opinions, and in the end, you can only rely on simple and crude ways such as blocking roads and demonstrations to achieve your demands, isn't this too costly? Lin Zhenhua said. …,
Xie Mingcheng raised his eyes to look at Lin Zhenhua, his face seemed to be smiling, Lin Zhenhua was a little hairy by her, and couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at me for?" ”
"I see you like to preach." Xie Mingcheng said.
"Uh......" Lin Zhenhua was a little embarrassed, people who like to preach, what they are most afraid of is being pointed out by others in person. Lin Zhenhua thought about it for a while, and felt that he did seem to be a little too preachy.
"Xiao Xie, I think that you and your friends can devote themselves to the cause of environmental protection, which is a good thing and worth advocating. Because I think you are doing a good thing, there are some things that are lacking, and I want to point them out to you so that I can help you do better. If it were someone else, I wouldn't be interested in instructing them. Lin Zhenhua defended himself sneeringly.
"I know......" Xie Mingcheng said in a long voice.
"Well, there's one more thing I want to discuss with you, I don't know if you're interested." Lin Zhenhua said.
"If Mr. Lin has any instructions, please say it directly." Xie Mingcheng said in a mocking tone.
"That's right." Lin Zhenhua said, "Didn't you say that when you were studying in the United States, you studied issues such as environmental protection and labor protection within enterprises? ”
"To be precise, I study the full range of corporate social responsibility issues, which involve environmental protection outside the company, as well as the protection of the working environment of employees within the company, as well as employee welfare, social welfare, and the promotion of community development. At present, even a large enterprise group like Hanhua Heavy Industries has not yet accepted these concepts. When talking about his profession, Xie Mingcheng finally regained his self-confidence.
"It should be said that it is not fully accepted." Lin Zhenhua corrected with a smile, "In fact, since the establishment of our group, we have paid great attention to environmental protection, as well as labor protection. As for social welfare and other things, we have also done a lot, you see, I came to Jingxi this time to help Jingxi get rid of poverty, isn't this social welfare? ”
Xie Mingcheng said: "Mr. Lin, you are a layman." There are many ways to corporate social responsibility, and you can't just pat your head and understand it. For example, you say that you are environmentally friendly, have you passed the ISO14000 certification? ”
"Isn't it ISO9000?" Lin Zhenhua asked in a daze.
"Those are two different things." Xie Mingcheng said, "ISO14000 is a set of environmental management certification system, which requires enterprises to control the factors that affect the environment in the whole process of product design, production, use, scrapping and recycling, involving the company's environmental policy, goals and indicators, environmental management programs, institutions and responsibilities and so on more than a dozen aspects, all of which, do you dare to say that your group can do it?" ”
Looking at Xie Mingcheng's triumphant appearance, Lin Zhenhua didn't have the slightest hint of anger or frustration, he asked with a smile: "So, do you know this?" ”
"Of course." Xie Mingcheng said, "Not only these, but also the European Union's ecological management and audit law, referred to as EMAS; BS7750 environmental management system in the UK, and SA8000 to protect employee welfare...... All these things, I've studied. When I was in the U.S., I also mentored several companies with my mentors. ”
"Hehe, great, this is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there." Lin Zhenhua said with a smile, "Xiao Xie, you don't know, we have always wanted to find someone who knows how to help us do this work." ”
"Really?" Xie Mingcheng couldn't believe it, "No, after I returned to China, I have asked many large companies to talk to them about this, but they have never even heard of it, let alone have any interest." Do you really plan to do this? ”
"Our Hanhua concept is always at the forefront." Lin Zhenhua said proudly.
This is not Lin Zhenhua's bragging, Hanhua's concept is indeed very leading among large domestic enterprises. Among Hanhua's executives, there are several returnees, including general manager Xiang Zhe. Thanks to Lin Zhenhua's encouragement, these returnee executives who have drunk foreign ink are able to implement many foreign advanced management concepts in Hanhua, of course, this is also on the basis of full integration with China's national conditions. ..., Hanhua's concept is advanced, and another important reason is that there is such a super cheater as Lin Zhenhua. In terms of Xie Mingcheng's ISO14000, SA8000 and other concepts, in 2000, domestic enterprises generally did not pay much attention, but after 2005, Western countries in foreign trade by China's manufacturing to the ground, helpless to sacrifice these social responsibility weapons, for a while, Chinese enterprises are dumbfounded.
For example, if a Chinese company sells shirts to Europe, the European countries do not look at the quality and price of your shirts, but first ask you if there is any abuse of employees in the company and whether your workers can enjoy the double day off. If these requirements are not met, then European countries will refuse to import the shirt on the grounds that it comes from a "sweatshop". These cleverly named trade barriers also have a very beautiful name in the world, called "green barriers".
As early as a few years ago, when these social responsibility standards were just emerging in Western countries, Xiang Zhe and others had noticed this problem, but the impact of Chinese products on the Western market was not so serious at that time, and Western countries wished that Chinese goods were more high-quality and cheaper, and they were too lazy to pretend to be that compassionate face, so Hanhua did not put this work on the agenda for the time being.
This time, Lin Zhenhua met Xie Mingcheng in Jingxi, and when chatting, he learned that she was studying abroad about these environmental certification standards, employee welfare certification standards, etc., so he had the idea of asking Xie Mingcheng to do this certification for Hanhua. He told Xiang Zhe about this idea on the phone, and Xiang Zhe also agreed very much, and felt that he should take precautions and quickly establish a set of internal systems that meet international standards to deal with possible difficulties abroad. China has just completed WTO accession talks with the United States and will join the WTO next year.
In addition to dealing with the ideas of foreigners, Lin Zhenhua and Xiang Zhe are also very positive about environmental protection and employee protection, and they do hope that Hanhua can do more standardized and effective in this regard.
"Xiao Xie, if you are interested, we would like to hire you as the director of social responsibility of our group, first of all, this is not compiled, we can provide you with 1 million yuan as an honorarium, please guide us to establish a set of social responsibility system in line with international norms, what do you think?" Lin Zhenhua asked.
Xie Mingcheng was overjoyed, "Mr. Lin, what you said is true?" ”
"You don't joke...... Well, although I'm not a gentleman, I also don't joke. Lin Zhenhua said.
"Great! Mr. Lin, I really love you to death! Xie Mingcheng took Lin Zhenhua's arm and shook it happily.
"Uh......" Lin Zhenhua was even more embarrassed this time, he pulled back his arm, and said cautiously: "Xiao Xie, what, pay attention to the influence, men and women don't kiss." ”
"Hahahaha, men and women don't kiss each other. Mr. Lin, are you mistaken, are you an uncle? Xie Mingcheng smiled and bent down.
"What's wrong with Uncle?" Lin Zhenhua felt that his self-esteem had been hurt, he seemed to be only 39 years old, why did he become an uncle? Xie Mingcheng's age he had asked before, it seems to be 25 years old, and the difference is less than a generation.
Xie Mingcheng said with a straight face: "As an uncle, you should have the consciousness of an uncle." You know, you're not attractive to girls anymore, so you don't have to worry about whether you give or don't kiss. ”
"Actually, I wasn't attractive to girls either." Lin Zhenhua replied stupidly. He suddenly found that he might really have become an uncle, and when some 20-year-old girls in the company saw him, there was far more respect in their eyes than admiration or shyness, is this a good thing or a bad thing?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of He Lan again, in a blink of an eye, he hadn't seen He Lan for six or seven years, and he didn't know how this girl was living now. Listening to what He Haifeng meant, it seems that He Lan has always been single, which should be the result of being delayed by him. Alas, how good would it be if he had been a non-lethal uncle to girls 20 years ago?
"You don't know, Uncle Lin." Xie Mingcheng has a crazy personality, and in a blink of an eye, he is no longer big or small with Lin Zhenhua, "I went abroad to learn about social responsibility, but my parents didn't understand." When I came back, I wanted to promote this concept in China, but no one cared about it. I'm so discouraged that I can't imagine that such a big customer of yours will fall from the sky. ”
"So, I've been looking for you, and you've been looking for me, but in Jingxi, a place with beautiful mountains and rivers......" Lin Zhenhua couldn't go on, and the words in the back were not suitable for children.
"Are you trying to say that something sparked something?" Xie Mingcheng giggled, picked up his small fist and smashed it at Lin Zhenhua.
Well, this is the niece who is spoiling the uncle, absolutely! Lin Zhenhua's eyes look at the nose and the nose and the heart, and the heart is like stopping water......
