Bai Yunsheng was stunned, he pointed to Director Sun's back and wanted to scold but was in front of others, and he really didn't know what to say about this old comrade for a while.

Lin Qiangsheng asked Bai Yunsheng suspiciously: "Is my father like that, who is Director Sun angry about?" ”

Bai Yunsheng said embarrassedly: "It's hard to say, don't go back to your heart and I'll criticize him!" ”

He hurriedly took Lin Qiangsheng into the car, and the group left the factory Bai Yunsheng explained: "Originally, the Red Star station wagon produced by the Red Star Automobile Factory was very popular. There was no Jetta and other cars before the Red Star factory was quite prosperous, the sales of the Red Star station wagon was good, at that time the car buyers came from all over the country, from the factory director's office has been able to discharge the factory door far away. At that time, if you want to buy a Red Star station wagon, we may not be easy to talk in the city, because the Long March Factory and the Red Star Factory are all moved from the capital, and people are naturally higher than our local cadres, and their eyes are on the top of their brains, so if you want to buy a car, you really have to look at people's eyes! ”

Lin Qiangsheng understood, nodded and said for Bai Yunsheng: "But I didn't expect that after the Jetta sedan and Accord sedan were launched one after another, the Red Star Factory became a cold house!" ”

Bai Yunsheng smiled bitterly and nodded and said: "The Jetta sedan has just been produced for the first two years, and the Red Star Factory is okay, after all, the Red Star car is cheap and the Jetta has limited production at the beginning, but two years later, when the Jetta production comes up, the Red Star Factory's cars will not be sold at once." Who doesn't want to buy a high-grade, fashionable and good-looking car, so the sales of station wagons produced by the Red Star Factory plummeted all of a sudden! You see that now the Red Star Factory is deserted, their factory directors have gone out to run business, and their Red Star station wagons are also being produced day by day, which is all for Jetta and Accord! So, don't blame Lao Sun, he is very aggrieved! ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "I don't blame him. Director Sun hasn't figured it out yet! ”

"Now the automobile company is no longer able to develop by self-reliance, there is no technology, the model is old and unbearable, and when the real competitor appears, the Red Star Factory may be abandoned by the times in a blink of an eye!"

"What then? Now the Red Star Factory is already very difficult, and you can see that there is no one in the factory who has come to buy a car, and the workers have stopped working! Bai Yunsheng looked at Lin Qiangsheng with some expectation and said.

Lin Qiangsheng spread his hands to Bai Yunsheng, who was sitting next to him, and said: "You have also seen that the Red Star Factory is not enthusiastic about cooperating with us, and if we can't get along, then the cooperation will not be pleasant." An unpleasant partnership is a failed investment! ”

Bai Yunsheng sighed and said, "Lao Sun, these people are from the capital, not to mention that they used to sell very well!" ”

"Lao Tzu used to be wide!"

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and asked suspiciously: "Now that the reform and opening up has been loosened, the enterprises that moved from the capital such as the Long March Factory and the Red Star Factory have not thought of moving back to the capital?" ”

Bai Yunsheng laughed and shook his head and said: "They want to go back to Beijing, and there are indeed cadres and workers who have found a way to return to Beijing, but after all, it is a small number of people who still have to stay!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng shook his head and said: "This kind of enterprise is the most troublesome, and people's hearts are disheartened!" It takes a lot of effort just to rectify people's hearts, so how can you make these people dispel the idea of returning to the capital? ”

Bai Yunsheng was also silent, in fact, he knew in his heart that he would never count on it. The biggest dream of these workers is to let themselves and their families go back to the capital, and even if they can't go back, they have to let their children go back. It's impossible to dispel this idea. Unless these two generations are gone!

Suddenly, Lin Qiangsheng saw a plaque similar to a steel factory outside the car window, and he hurriedly asked the driver to stop.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yunsheng asked.

Lin Qiangsheng looked for it, pointed to the door of the nearby factory and said, "That's the steel factory?" ”

Bai Yunsheng looked at it and said: "It's Xingde Iron and Steel Plant, we have a lot of iron ore mines in the western mountainous area of Xingde, and there are several iron and steel factories in the city. ”

"Drive in and have a look!" Lin Qiangsheng said casually.

"Yes, Xiao Zhang will drive the car in and take a spin." Bai Yunsheng nodded and instructed the driver.

As the sedan drove into the factory gate, several cars behind also drove in. Bai Yunsheng didn't notice that Lin Qiangsheng, who was sitting next to him, slowed down his breathing a little, and carefully observed the steel plant, Bai Yunsheng didn't know how excited Lin Qiangsheng was at this time.

In fact, it is not suitable to engage in the automobile industry in Ben City, and there are no large iron mines in H Province. Iron and steel products from the nearby L province are supplied to the Kannai region in large quantities, and the rest will be divided between the industrial departments of the three eastern provinces. Every six months, Binqi, Harbin Automobile and his Dongxing Company have to reformulate the reserve plan for steel products, aluminum products, rubber products, etc. Their salesmen have been stationed in the mining areas of the country for many years just to snap up resource products.

Lin Qiangsheng didn't expect that the iron and steel enterprises in the little Xingde were more developed than those in the Bincheng area, and he asked Bai Yunsheng: "What are the iron ore reserves in Xingde?" ”

Bai Yunsheng thought for a while and said, "I really don't know about this, it just so happened that we were in Xingde Iron and Steel Plant, and we could ask their director." ”

The Accord car stopped in front of the factory office, and the factory director Hou Li had already received the news, and when he saw the mayor's car arrive, he also hurriedly got off the second-story building.

"Lao Hou, I will lead the foreign guests to see your steel plant!" Bai Yunsheng got out of the car, shook hands with Hou Li and said.

"Welcome Mayor Bai, this is a foreign guest?" Hou Li looked at Lin Qiangsheng with some doubts and said. He looked at the many blonde and blue-eyed foreigners who got out of the car behind him, this is the foreign guest!

"Yes, this is a foreign guest, Mr. Lin! He made a special trip to our city to inspect the automobile factory and was ready to invest in the city's automobile industry! Bai Yunsheng said with a smile. I introduced him to Lin Qiangsheng.

Hou Li was in his fifties, and he shook hands with Lin Qiangsheng in confusion and said, "Welcome Mr. Lin!" ”

"Hello, Director Hou, I'm sorry for your trouble!" Lin Qiangsheng said with a smile, he glanced at the west side of the factory office, where several large chimneys were erected high, probably the workshop of the iron control blast furnace.

"What are foreign guests doing in our steel plant?" Hou Li pulled Bai Yunsheng and asked.

Bai Yunzhi said of course: "Don't you want to look at steel raw materials when investing in the automobile industry, isn't your factory the main steel product supplier of the Red Star Factory of the Long March Factory, give Lin Qiangsheng a look at the steel plate products!" ”

Hou Li nodded hurriedly, and several people came to a workshop, and Lin Qiangsheng saw stacks of steel plates stacked on top of them, and such materials were completely unusable on the car. But trucks and all that are still in heavy use.

Hou Li said to Lin Qiangsheng: "This Mr. Lin, do you want to take you to see our steelmaking workshop?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng shook his head and said, "No need, I would like to know how much iron ore reserves you have in the Xingde area?" ”

"This, I am here to receive the Xishan Shiyan mine, and the proven reserves are 3.9 million tons!" Hou Li thought about it and had nothing to hide, so he said.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded, there are really a lot of reserves in one mining site.

In fact, he was trying to remember the news he had seen in his previous life. In the last decade of the 21st century, the Xingde area is still producing a large amount of steel and iron, and the local iron ore reserves of more than 60 million tons have been exploded, which is enough for decades!

Lin Qiangsheng was a little excited, and he asked again: "How many steel factories are there in the city, how is the output?" ”

"Our Xingde Iron and Steel Plant has an annual output of 100,000 tons of crude steel and 250,000 tons of pig iron!" Hou Li glanced at Bai Yunsheng and said.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and was glad in his heart, the current output is smaller, okay, haha!

He looked at the scale of this steel plant and asked Bai Yunsheng: "There are several steel mills in the city, what if I invest in the acquisition of a steel company?" ”

Bai Yunsheng was surprised and said, "Acquire a steel plant? Is it a wholly owned acquisition? ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Yes." Building a car requires a lot of steel materials, and it is very convenient to have a steel production enterprise! ”

Bai Yunsheng pondered for a moment and said: "If you really want to buy a steel plant, I need to report to my superiors, and if my superiors say yes, we can talk about it!"

Saying that, Bai Yunsheng asked again: "Mr. Lin, are you sure you want to wholly acquire a steel company in our city?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Of course, I'm very sure!" In fact, our company is also in contact with the Alechu Iron and Steel Plant in Bincheng County, H Province, and has reached an agreement with the H Provincial Government to invest in the acquisition of 65% of the shares of this iron and steel company, and now we have not negotiated with the steel plant only in terms of price! ”

"How much do you contribute to the 65% stake in that steel plant?" Bai Yunsheng glanced at Hou Li. He asked Lin Qiangsheng.

"$2 million!" Lin Qiangsheng stretched out two fingers and said to the two.

"Shhh Bai Yunsheng and Hou Li were both surprised, although 2 million US dollars was converted into more than 4 million yuan. But in fact, according to the black market price, 2 million US dollars can be exchanged for nearly 9 million yuan, and this Xingde steel plant is definitely not worth this price.

"Mr. Lin, after we visit the automobile factory, you will wait for my news, and I will personally go to the province to inquire about this matter!" Bai Yunsheng did not dare to make his own decisions, after all, the wholly-owned acquisition of steel plants in China has not heard of a precedent anywhere.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Yes, if you don't work as a sole proprietorship." Then the joint venture is also acceptable, and my requirement is that it cannot be less than 65% of the shares! ”

Bai Yunsheng nodded, he made up his mind to wait until he finished visiting today, and immediately contacted the province, and the group left the steel mill and left the melancholy Hou Li.

Xingde Automobile Factory is in the southeast direction of the city, and Lin Qiangsheng visited it. There was only this one company left, so Bai Yunsheng followed Lin Qiangsheng with some apprehension.

The director of the 114 factory and the director of the Revolutionary Committee around them are also very much looking forward to it, at the beginning they wanted to participate in the news of foreign investment, but their level was too low, but they didn't expect that this time they really ushered in a foreign inspection, and it would definitely not be wrong to be led by Mayor Bai himself.

Lin Qiangsheng saw that the two had a positive attitude and good sincerity in cooperation, and he said with a smile: "I decided to choose this one as the joint venture object!" ”

"Really, great, Mr. Lin!" Bai Yunsheng was very happy when he heard Lin Qiangsheng's words, and the two factory cadres were also happy.

Lin Qiangsheng pointed to the east and asked, "Can the surroundings of this factory be expanded?" Will it occupy farmland? ”

"No, no, Mr. Lin, you can rest assured that the land around the factory belongs to us!" Tao Hongjun, director of Factory 114, hurriedly said.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said to Bai Yunsheng: "Then let's start negotiating the contract, I can provide you with a copy of the contract, you can take a look first, if you have any objections, we will discuss it in the afternoon!" ”

Bai Yunsheng said with a smile: "It's better to let Director Guo, the director of the pottery factory, take a closer look in the afternoon, and let's discuss it tomorrow, and we will have a light meal at noon!" ”

"Yes, Mr. Lin, I'll talk about it in the afternoon, I'm afraid Lao Guo and I can't see anything famous, we have prepared some local specialties for you and these foreign guests!" The director of the Tao factory said to Lin Qiangsheng, and Director Guo also tried his best to keep it. (To be continued......)
