Zhou Qingfeng didn't go to the company, he took Gong Wei to the construction site, which was a wasteland on the outskirts of the city not far from the office. There are not even roads in this place, and the 'three links and one leveling' only started a few years ago, and it has not been completed yet.

"It's too slow." Zhou Qingfeng was wearing a hard hat, and the first and second leaders of the municipal construction unit followed him with construction workers. In front of them were several bulldozers and excavators, and about a hundred construction workers were busy.

The construction worker unfolds the drawings in his hand and introduces the progress of the project.

Zhou Qingfeng interrupted impatiently: "How can we speed up the progress?" Is it okay to add money? ”

Time, time, time, time is very important!

The leaders of the construction unit are very difficult, because there are now a number of key projects in the city. Some projects are gift projects, which must be guaranteed in quality and quantity, and the delivery date can only be advanced and cannot be postponed. If you postpone it, you will get into trouble, and it will affect the official's hat.

The leader of the construction unit personally explained to Zhou Qingfeng that it is nothing more than that the equipment and manpower are limited, and it is not something that can be done quickly if you want to, and you must follow a certain process.

"Can you borrow construction forces from other cities?" Zhou Qingfeng asked.

The construction unit is not happy - your 'Holy Light Machinery' forces us to use your rotten mixer, even if it is rotten, it is cheap and easy to repair. But if you want to meddle in our business, you can't. It's bearable, it's unbearable!

"It's impossible for all the city's construction units to be busy, there will always be people who want business." Zhou Qingfeng looked at Gong Wei, this kind of thing still needs to be contacted by 'old fritters'. Counting on the construction units in Tianyang City, they can definitely drag it out.

As soon as they saw that the business was about to be diverted, the faces of several leaders were very ugly.

But Zhou Qingfeng has a killer feature, the 'traditional arts' debut, and the invincible foreign exchange settlement.

"You give me to speed up on the basis of quality and quantity, and I am willing to reward 50,000 Hong Kong dollars for every week in advance. In addition, as long as you don't get in the way, you allow construction companies from other cities to help, and all business is settled in Hong Kong dollars. ”

Zhou Qingfeng's important willingness to grab time is that the domestic economy is currently in the early stage of violent development, if you can't prepare immediately, when there is a demand, let alone eat meat, you can't even drink soup, you can only drink the northwest wind.

For the state-owned enterprises in Tianyang City and even the entire mainland, foreign exchange will be extremely hungry for foreign exchange in the next ten years. Especially in the early nineties, there was a huge and terrible problem - inflation.

It's the sword of Damocles hanging from everyone's heads.

The blind can feel that prices are rising rapidly, and the banks in Tianyang City can't wait to sell the non-performing assets in their hands to Zhou Qingfeng in exchange for foreign exchange, because now the exchange rate of the soft sister currency is plummeting.

In '89, the soft sister coin was still 3.7 to 1 against the dollar. By '90, it was 4.7 to 1. It will continue to depreciate in 91. By 93, it jumped off a cliff to 8.6 to 1.

This is still the country's strict control of foreign exchange, otherwise the soft sister currency will be uncontrollable and become waste paper. This is not a joke, as the Southeast Asian financial crisis of '97 is a clear proof that currency depreciation can cause violent social upheaval.

Banks are extremely sensitive to financial problems, and if they can exchange their non-performing assets for foreign exchange, they may be able to recoup their profits in two years by relying on exchange rate changes alone, and they will be able to make up for the losses caused by indiscriminate lending over the years.

This is true for banks, but also for enterprises and institutions. Reality is forcing them to protect themselves and try their best to get foreign exchange. After all, the disintegrating Soviet Union was a case in point, with 2,000 percent inflation that wiped out the life savings of countless people.

In 91, one dollar was exchanged for 0.9 rubles. By the end of '94, one dollar was exchanged for more than three thousand two hundred rubles. The third brother took advantage of the collapse of the ruble to pay off the nearly $10 billion debt accumulated to the Soviet Union over the years with only $5 million.

Of course, afterwards, the third brother of Mao Xiongkeng was also ruthless, and slaughtering the third brother was more neat than slaughtering a fat sheep. Both of them are pitting each other better.

As a bystander, you can laugh at this kind of manipulation as a joke, laughing at both the Soviet Union and the third brother. But if you are faced with terrible inflation, it is a catastrophe.

In this way, you can imagine what a big temptation it is to settle in Hong Kong dollars. The mere fact that it preserves its value is enough to impress people's hearts. At least you don't have to worry about being like the common people in the national control area before the liberation, the golden yuan coupon in your hand is too hard to wipe your buttocks.

Relying on the abundant Hong Kong dollars and even US dollars and Japanese yen in his hands, Zhou Qingfeng is like a god-like existence in Tianyang City. Several leaders of the construction unit met on the spot for a small meeting and agreed to his request.

If you don't agree, you can't, this lord turns around and goes to the city, and he can get better conditions when he turns around.

Returning to the 'Chang'an Star' parked next to the construction site, Zhou Qingfeng instructed Gong Wei: "Your liaison sales department needs more manpower. But you can't recruit people who are angry, misbehaved, and eat inside and out. ”

The employees of the liaison sales department are similar to the business of the enterprise, which is difficult to control. They have a lot of information and a lively mind, and once they take advantage of the poor information to make profits, it is particularly harmful.

Gong Wei nodded, "Mr. Zhou, don't worry." The Liaison Department has been recruiting people recently, and I have been running around the department all year round to understand who can use it and who can't. However, the liaison department lacks mobile phones, can you give us five special licenses? ”

"How is five enough? I'll give you fifty copies. "Zhou Qingfeng has some inventory in his hand, so he decided to allocate it directly to Gong Wei." You can't think of yourself as a gangster, you should have the bearing of a big company.

Look at the bag you're carrying, it's so tattered, it looks like an electricity biller. And you're dressed like a country cadre. After a while, I matched the management of the company with a few good clothes.

At the very least, you should have a car and a secretary, and if you are in contact with a foreign country, you should also have a translator. By the way, speaking of translation, find a couple of Russian translators. By the way, contact the government and banks to find a state-owned enterprise with the right to operate foreign trade. ”

Gong Wei has a low background, and his bearing is indeed inferior to Professor Zheng and Lin Wan. He is not tall and thin, and is easily despised by others. So he needs a whole set of foils even more. Clothes, vehicles, secretaries, and even hairstyles are important.

The image problem made Gong Wei laugh and laugh at himself, but the translation and foreign trade management rights surprised him, "President, are we going to do business directly with foreign countries?" Russian? The USSR is about to fall, what business can you do with them? ”

"It's because they're going to fall that I'm in a hurry." Zhou Qingfeng looked worriedly at the construction site that was still leveling the land, "I want to make the business bigger and benefit more people." But I don't even have my own office building, so what's the matter? ”

The matter of the office building was not in a hurry, so Gong Wei could only go to a few more units and contact more people. Zhou Qingfeng originally asked him to run more, but considering that he was already too busy, he could only find someone else to do it.

Driving the car, Zhou Qingfeng rushed to the vegetable market dock in the city. The slippery place was still noisy and crowded. Since the urban and rural logistics system of the waterway has been opened, the place is more crowded than in the past.

Zhou Qingfeng parked his car outside the vegetable market and walked to the dock with the flow of people. A beautiful woman in a floral cloth shirt was bargaining with a few vegetable sellers, and when she turned her head and saw the man approaching, her nose instantly soured and her eyes turned red.

"You kill a thousand knives, you have no conscience. People stay here every day, and you're only here now. ”
