Judging from the abnormal attitude of the deputy factory director Niu Qianli for a while, He Zhuoxiao had a premonition that he would face a storm. As soon as Lieshan had an accident yesterday, rumors spread in the factory, saying that Sun Yadong and the municipal party committee were secretly investigating him, and he, the factory director and secretary of the party committee, had been in action for a few days. He Zhuoxiao found out that the source of the rumors was Niu Qianli, so he hung up the phone to Wen Chunming's house overnight and asked Wen Chunming what was going on? Wen Chunming categorically denied it, saying that the municipal party committee had never made such a decision, and asked He Zhuoxiao to report directly to Gao Changhe when he went to the site of the flat rolling mill to work.

So, as soon as Gao Changhe and Wen Chunming arrived at the flat rolling mill, He Zhuoxiao immediately reflected the situation to Gao Changhe, and said with grievances: "...... Secretary Gao, the municipal party committee can investigate me as much as he wants, and I can understand that the case should be filed, but I can secretly do this, and there are people in the factory who are making waves, so I really can't work. Secretary Gao and Mayor Wen, in front of your two leaders today, I formally submit my resignation. ”

At this time, Gao Changhe and Wen Chunming were inspecting the huge factory together, and Gao Changhe said as he walked: "Director He, I don't know much about the situation you reflected, the municipal party committee has indeed not made this kind of decision or similar decision, you can ask Mayor Wen to confirm this." As for whether there is anyone who is making a name for himself behind the back of the municipal party committee, I don't dare to pack a ticket to you. What I want to emphasize is that even if anyone really does this behind the back of the municipal party committee, you must also be open-minded, don't do bad things for others, and don't be afraid of ghosts calling the door in the middle of the night! What are you doing in a hurry to quit your job? Yes? Weak heart? ”

He Zhuoxiao didn't dare to make a sound.

Gao Changhe pointed to the empty factory building and said: "Look at it, look at it, 1.2 billion, just throw it here without dying, how can you see it?" Not in a hurry? Although you should not be responsible for the investment, don't you have any other responsibilities? That's why I say, you, a comrade, should focus your energies on the important matter of changing this passive situation, and don't always think about personal grievances. If you want to talk about grievances, isn't Mayor Wen more wronged? Who did Mayor Wen tell this grievance to? ’”

Wen Chunming said at this time: "Lao He, Secretary Gao is right, we must now base ourselves on solving the problem. ”

At the next meeting, various plans that had been discussed many times in the past were brought out again, from the joint formation of group companies with relevant iron and steel enterprises in the province, to various mergers, bankruptcy and asset restructuring plans, there was almost no new content.

To He Zhuoxiao's surprise, the complacent deputy director Niu Qianli suddenly came up with something new.

Niu Qianli said: "Since the municipal party committee and the city attach so much importance to fundamentally solving the problem of the flat rolling mill, Secretary Gao and Mayor Wen are present at the same time, I have a new idea, and I guarantee that it will be effective as soon as it is implemented!" ”

Gao Changhe, Wen Chunming and all the participants turned their attention to Niu Qianli.

Niu Qianli talked eloquently: "At present, the shareholding reform of state-owned enterprises is a hot topic, and there are new joint-stock companies listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in three days. Can we consider converting the flat rolling mill into a listed joint-stock company? Of course, the premise here is the support of the province and the city, which can give us the listing quota of the flat rolling mill ......"

The congregation snickered at first, then burst into laughter.

He Zhuoxiao didn't laugh, and opened his mouth coldly in the laughter of everyone: "Deputy Director Niu, are you confused about stock speculation?" Talking in your dreams with your eyes open? Let me remind you that our flat rolling mill does not have the minimum conditions to become a listed company at all, and so far there is not a penny of profit, only debt! ”

Niu Qianli glanced at He Zhuoxiao with dissatisfaction: "Director He, let me state that as a cadre above the deputy department, I have never speculated in stocks, but I am very concerned about China's stock market, and I still have a little research!" After the statement, he continued, "Comrades, don't laugh, my idea did not come out of thin air, it is grounded, and therefore, it is feasible. During this period of time, I have studied some joint-stock companies that went public last year, and the listing reports were all written in a fanciful manner, and each family sold their stocks at a premium many times, and dared to sell their net assets for five or six yuan for one dollar. Take a closer look, hey, many of them are serious loss-making enterprises, and the situation is even worse than our flat rolling mill. Later, I learned that this is called 'packaging for the market'. Therefore, as long as you can go to the securities management department to obtain the listing quota and package the flat rolling mill well, it is only a technical problem to make a profit report......"

Gao Changhe couldn't listen to it anymore, waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about this idea, there is no possibility of implementing it at all, this is deception, disaster to the country and the people!" Is there such a situation that Comrade Niu Qianli said? Yes, not just one or two. This kind of so-called packaging listed company, our province has it, because it involves our relationship with brother regions, I will not name it here. However, please remember, comrades: we can't do this kind of thing in Pingyang! Not only can't you do it today, but you can't do it in the future! ”

Wen Chunming immediately agreed: "Yes, do you really treat our people as fools? ”

Gao Changhe glanced at Wen Chunming and said, "Mayor Wen, don't say it, there are still people who treat the people as fools!" Some time ago, I saw an economic theory article that said that the Chinese people have trillions of dollars in their hands, and calculated how many troubled state-owned enterprises can be transformed into joint-stock companies. Comrades, I won't tell you anything, I was really scared out of sweat after reading this big article! Let's imagine what kind of situation we will face if companies like flat rolling mills are packaged and listed? On the surface, the burden of the country is light, but don't forget that this burden has not disappeared into the atmosphere, but has been carried on our people. When our people carry this burden one by one and find themselves deceived, the crisis will erupt like a volcano, and the situation will be more serious than the Southeast Asian crisis that occurred not long ago, and it will even shake the national foundation! ”

Everyone was stunned by Gao Changhe's insights.

Gao Changhe paused slightly, and then continued: "So, don't even think about this kind of disaster to the country and the people. Of course, I am not saying this to Comrade Niu Qianli personally, but to this economic phenomenon. Comrade Niu Qianli's idea is not advisable, but it still has an enlightening effect. A merger plan just now caught my attention, that is, a merger plan proposed by a listed company in Shanghai. ”

He Zhuoxiao asked: "Secretary Gao, is it Oriental Iron and Steel Group?" ”

Gao Changhe nodded: "Yes, it's Dongfang Iron and Steel Group Company, aren't they interested in flat rolling?" Isn't it an asset restructuring? The city gives preferential policies, you should talk to them well, don't reject other people's plans as soon as you open your mouth, and don't be afraid of looking bad. In my opinion, there is nothing that cannot be discussed, zero mergers can be discussed, tax reductions and exemptions can be discussed, and some loans can also be discussed. If we don't talk about this, we don't talk about that, and we always want to make money from others, so we can only carry the burden on ourselves, and the more we carry it, the heavier it becomes. Here's a point: I've always believed that good business in this world is a win-win situation, and a single win is not a good business. We must make it clear that people are here to merge, not to help the poor, and we must give full consideration to people's reasonable economic compensation! ”

The participants did not expect that Gao Changhe would be so expert in economic work.

What the participants, including Wen Chunming, did not expect was that next, Gao Changhe clearly instructed He Zhuoxiao to start negotiations immediately on the plan of the Oriental Iron and Steel Group.

Gao Changhe said: "Lao He, you should stop looking ahead and backwards, and immediately start negotiations on the basis of the plan proposed by the Oriental Iron and Steel Group, which can be discussed in Pingyang, or in Shanghai or Beijing, and immediately discussed!" The leaders of the municipal party committee and the municipal government will participate as long as they are free, and Mayor Wen and I will also participate when we are free. Then he asked Wen Chunming, "Mayor Wen, what do you see?" ”

Wen Chunming felt that Gao Changhe expressed his position without asking for his opinion, which was too rash and too indifferent to him as the mayor, and he was very angry in his heart, but it was not easy to oppose it in front of so many comrades attending the meeting, so he had to support himself and nodded against his will.

Wen Chunming's ambiguous attitude, He Zhuoxiao saw it, and He Zhuoxiao did not dare to act rashly. As soon as Wen Chunming returned to the office, He Zhuoxiao called and asked Wen Chunming, what should I do about this? Is it true that you will talk to Dongfang Iron and Steel Group right away? Wen Chunming's answer was still very ambiguous, and he asked He Zhuoxiao to watch it.

He Zhuoxiao really didn't know what to do, he put down the phone and immediately scolded his mother in a gaffe.
