When the executive secretary of the municipal party committee arrived at the NB Industrial Park, the luxury bus had just driven out of the gate of the experimental workshop.

Vice Mayor Wang Xichang waited outside for a long time, and the secretary of the municipal party committee came again, and the charter hurriedly invited the two to get in the car together. As for their entourage, they were received by Yao Guanghui, the former Chinese manager of NB Electric, who had just resigned from public service and became the chairman of the labor union and head of the training department of NB Electric China.

They had never seen the charter, and they had to be introduced by Li Xiaoshan, and Mr. Gu and Chairman Zhong, two Hong Kong business tycoons, as well as new colleagues such as Wu Jinhua, had to be introduced by the charter, so that the luxury bus did not finish introducing them one by one before it drove to the Linhai Hotel.

Vice Mayor Wang, who did not know much about Hong Kong's civil service system, was completely stunned and secretly wondered how to deal with them in the future.

The Permanent Secretary breathed a sigh of relief that although there was a member of the Legislative Council who served as an INED, he belonged to the functional constituency and represented the Federation of Hong Kong Industries, neither left nor right, and defended the interests of the FHKI members. As for those former senior officials of the Hong Kong government, they are all technical officials, and they will not make trouble or make trouble, which will not affect NB Electric's political position.

Besides, it seems that they were all introduced by Mr. Gu, and on such a major issue, Mr. Gu would never do that kind of thing to lure the wolf into the room.

Cadres at and above the level of the Chinese company came, attachés from the leaders of the municipal party committee and government came, and even Ding Aiguo, Gu Hongxia, and Xu Ping, who had just arrived in the SEZ for only three days, heard the news, and six tables were set up in the banquet hall on the second floor.

After everyone was seated, he raised his glass and said in a low voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, please allow me to thank Mr. Gu and Chairman Zhong, the President of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, President Chan of the University of Hong Kong, as well as the permanent secretary and Mayor Wang and other SAR government officials. He has been supporting and helping NB Electric and NB Laboratory. At the same time, thank you colleagues for your hard work, it can be said that without you, there would be no NB Electric today. ”

Talk eloquently, no stage fright at all.

After three years of separation, Ding Aiguo, who could only be contacted by phone during the period, was very relieved and gave warm applause like everyone else.

The charter looked at Wu Jinhua and the others beside him, and said with a smile: "Today is a special day, we welcome sixteen new colleagues, who are very knowledgeable. Experienced, internationally minded, and in the prime of life, they have made one outstanding contribution to the company or government department in which they have previously served. I am convinced that with their joining, NB Electric will develop even stronger. ”

Wu Jinhua and Guan Hao, among other incoming presidents of the group and sub-group subsidiaries. They all stood up and waved to their future subordinates.

"I'm hungry."

The crowd burst into laughter. The charter paused. Then he smiled: "I believe everyone's stomach is also hungry, so I won't introduce them one by one today." In the next period of time, President Wu will lead President Guo, Director Yu, President Guan and other new colleagues to the company to understand the situation, when there is time, now let us hold a glass and welcome the arrival of new colleagues! ”

Full of friends. The atmosphere was very warm.

Especially Mr. Gu, who is sitting in the main seat, is a figure that everyone can't usually see. In the afternoon, I had to work, and when the wine was ordered, I made a symbolic toast. This is the end of the reception feast.

As soon as Mr. Gu and Chairman Zhong and other Hong Kong dignitaries and new colleagues were sent away, the permanent secretary and Vice Mayor Wang invited the charter and Li Xiaoshan to the small conference room on the fourth floor of the hotel, wanting to take this opportunity to talk.

In front of him is not only the largest shareholder of NB Electric Group, but also a scientist who has made achievements in academics, the permanent secretary will not be condescending because he is young, but said very sincerely: "Zhang Gong, after NB Electronics is put into operation at the end of the year, your group will become the 'three capital' companies with the most investment in the Special Economic Zone, providing employment, creating foreign exchange, and paying huge taxes and fees. But for some work, the municipal party committee and the municipal government also need the support of your group. ”

"Secretary Chang is serious."

The charter put down the teacup and said without humility or arrogance: "To invest in China, you must abide by domestic laws and regulations." That's why when we established our first law firm in the SAR four years ago, we signed a perennial legal services agreement with them. It can be said that we have never slackened off in cooperating with the work of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and even established the first and only trade union of foreign-funded enterprises so far. ”

"Zhang Gong, you misunderstood what I meant."

Secretary Chang and Vice Mayor Wang glanced at each other and said with a wry smile: "I mean that if there is something like today, it is best to talk to the city first." Mr. Gu is highly respected, and Chairman Chung has a lot of influence in the Hong Kong business community, and they don't know anything about their visit to the city, which makes us very passive.

In addition, Councillor Shen has a special status, and you are from China, so you should be aware that there is no trivial matter involving politics, especially in this sensitive period. The slightest disturbance will not only affect the municipal party committee and municipal government, but even affect your group. ”

Before the reform and opening up did not understand the question of whether the surname "capital" or the surname "society" was understood, the most pressure was undoubtedly the two parents in front of them, and the charter realized the seriousness of the problem, and nodded again and again: "I'm sorry, we didn't think it through, although you can rest assured, this situation will not occur in the future." ”

Secretary Chang nodded with satisfaction, then changed his words, and asked with a smile: "Zhang Gong, your group's adjustment is so large, and the entire team has changed, don't you worry about problems?" ”

"Dreaming of changing the future is our slogan. In terms of human resources, we also have a slogan, if we can't retain first-class talents, we will never become a first-class company. This concept has been instilled since the establishment of the company, so whether at home or abroad, there has never been a problem with every personnel adjustment. ”

The charter paused, and then proudly continued: "It is our tradition to reject corporate politics, only treat things and not people, and do everything according to rules and regulations." Therefore, no matter who holds what position, there is no problem of no soil for survival. What's more, the company has been in an upward period, with a lot of room for growth, and there are enough positions to arrange capable people. ”

Vice Mayor Wang, who had been unable to interject, couldn't help but say: "But in this personnel adjustment, the Chinese company seems to have been wiped out, right?" ”

"The whole army is annihilated, this word is inappropriate," the charter smiled, and said sideways: "On this issue, Mr. Li has the most right to speak, and the two of you can ask him what he thinks." ”

Seeing the two city leaders looking at him, Li Xiaoshan laughed and said: "It is normal for those who are capable to go up and those who are mediocre to go down." What's more, this time there is only up and not down, what can you think? ”

The permanent secretary was happy and quipped: "I really don't have any ideas at all? ”

Li Xiaoshan's face was straight, and he said very seriously: "Everything for sales, everything for sales." For a company like ours, this is not a slogan, nor can it be taken as a slogan. Because most of our products are exported, not to mention that there are not so many talents with an international vision in China, even if there are Chinese passports abroad, it is very inconvenient. So on this issue, the whole Chinese company will only cooperate, not resist, because without them we would all be unemployed. ”

There is a color television production enterprise in the Special Economic Zone, which is no smaller than NB Electronics, but it produces glass shells and integrated circuit boards for its main components, while NB Electronics produces glass shells and shadow covers.

They all lack a leg, they can complement each other, and at the same time there is competition.

According to the consistent style of NB Electric's only high-quality products, the permanent secretary does not think that the color TV companies in the city can compete with NB Electronics, so he lost no time in asking: "NB Electronics' color TVs are also exported?" ”

How could the charter not know what he thought, and bluntly said: "From a sales point of view, there is no need for domestic sales." But for the sake of NB Electric's domestic brand, we have to sell more or less domestically. Although the two leaders rest assured, the domestic market is so large and the product positioning is different, it should not affect the city TV factory, at least not in a short time. ”

It is a matter of hundreds of millions of investments and thousands of jobs, and the permanent secretary did not dare to be careless, and asked: "How long is this short time?" ”

"At most three years, if the existing production line is not upgraded, whether or not we NB Electric, it will be eliminated from the market after three years."

The city TV factory has lived a good life for a few years, and now the market is weak and the product backlog is like a mountain, the permanent secretary is worried, staring at his eyes and asking: "Zhang Gong, can you give the city TV factory a way to live?" ”

The charter pretended to ponder for a moment, and said meaningfully: "Two leaders, have you counted how many TV factories there are in China? Almost every province has it, every city wants to go to it, market competition will become more and more fierce, whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a township enterprise, we must learn to look for the market instead of looking for the mayor. ”

"The enterprises in the special zone have the consciousness to find the market, and the key is to upgrade the production line," the permanent secretary and Vice Mayor Wang glanced at each other, and said helplessly: "This investment is often hundreds of millions, and the previous investment has not been recovered, and the city can't take out this fund, and it is also a precious foreign exchange, so the city is very difficult." ”

In later generations, an expert in the color TV industry counted that the interest on the funds from the introduction of color TV technology and production lines across the country after the reform and opening up was enough to buy the color TVs produced by them. This not only made Japan's Songxin、Japan's Toji and other color TV technology and production line providers made a lot of money,In the end, they were also occupied in the domestic high-end color TV market。

Blooming everywhere, no one can stop the enthusiasm of local governments for color TV projects.

It is precisely because of this that the charter decided to go to NB Electronics, and at the same time produce and sell color TVs and computer monitors, it also transfers technology and sells production equipment.

Color TV wars, let them fight!

The charter pretended to weigh it again, and looked up and said: "Upgrading and transformation definitely requires investment, but it doesn't necessarily have to be foreign exchange." The two leaders also know that our technology and production equipment are our own, and if we feel good after we put it into production at the end of the year, then we can find the NB technology we just established to solve this problem.
