Chapter 404: Genius or Madness
Thinking back to the things that happened back then, Mo Ming couldn't help but sigh.
The situation of the car branch factory in charge of Mo Ming at that time was very bad, and the old Hongqi cars produced by a large number of old production lines were backward in technology and large fuel consumption, which also made many consumers very criticized.
At that time, FAW had a lot of discussions on how to change the prospects of car production, and according to Mo Ming's original idea, the best thing to do was to find a well-known company in the world to cooperate.
FAW, which is in a development dilemma, has also explored on this development path, but the final results are unsatisfactory.
The joint venture project with Audi was abandoned halfway, and FAW could have re-selected the cooperation project at that time, but Xia Wang, the secretary of the Chuncheng Municipal Party Committee, strongly advocated FAW to introduce a so-called advanced production line from Audi.
Mo Ming is very sober-minded, and without obtaining the other party's advanced car technology, it is useless to introduce the so-called advanced production line. With such a question, Mo Ming, who has a strong personality, even rushed into the office of Xia Wang, secretary of the municipal party committee, and had a fierce dispute with the other party.
Xia Wang was under the most pressure at that time, and the decision to purchase an advanced car production line was also a huge pressure for him. If Mo Ming could calmly state the reasons for his opposition, maybe Xia Wang would not have had such a big reaction.
Whether it was felt that the prestige of the secretary of the municipal party committee was challenged, or considering that the FAW reform was in a critical period at that time, Mo Ming, a thorn in the head, was kicked aside by the angry Xia Wang, and since then he has been snubbed from a promising senior leader of FAW to a marginal figure of the Provincial Planning and Economic Commission.
"Mayor Chen, I was really too impulsive at that time!"
Mo Ming lowered his head and smoked a cigarette, exhaled a thick green smoke, and said in a deep voice: "After thinking about it for two years, I also understand that the original approach was inappropriate, FAW was in a very difficult period at that time, no matter how good my reasons were, the practice at that time did create too many negative effects on Secretary Xia and them. ”
Chen Youwei bowed slightly, and said calmly: "Why are you against the introduction of that production line?" ”
"To be precise, I am not against the introduction of that production line, from the actual situation of FAW at that time, with that production line, the overall quality of our Hongqi cars can indeed go to a great level."
Mo Ming looked up at the young mayor and tried to explain: "My idea at the time was that since the road of independence and autonomy has gradually reached a dead end, since it is necessary to change the course, then it is simply done more thoroughly." FAW leaders, including Secretary Xia, did not continue to look for partners at that time, and saw that they were very satisfied with the idea of being able to buy a so-called advanced production line, which was really worth the loss! ”
"Oh?" Chen Youwei nodded secretly, which made some sense.
"Whether such a production line is advanced or not, but without the support of certain technology, the Hongqi car we produced is essentially not a reborn improvement."
Mo Ming's eyes showed a sharp light, shook his head and sighed: "I spent a high price to buy a production line that was not as big as I imagined, not to mention wasting funds, the most important thing is that our FAW's most precious development time has been delayed." ”
Looking around the ordinarily decorated room, Chen Youwei could even clearly see the mottled marks on the ceiling.
"What do you think of FAW's series of restructuring this year?" Chen Youwei diverted the topic, and some things just need to know the way.
Although he has been sitting on the cold bench in the Provincial Planning and Economic Commission for more than two years, he is obviously still very excited when he mentions FAW: "FAW has done a very good job this year, and it is difficult for FAW to cooperate with a well-known enterprise in the world like General Motors." ”
"Do you feel that the original idea is now basically implemented, but you yourself have fallen into such a field, do you regret it?" Chen Youwei's words were sharp, like a sharp knife piercing the other party's heart.
Mo Ming's expression was dull, and he was silent for a long time before sighing: "If you want to say that you don't regret it, it's naturally false, after two years of reflection, I also figured out that what I did at that time was very inappropriate." Although my idea is proven to be correct now, the situation was complicated at that time, and Secretary Xia and the others were faced with hundreds of thousands of mouths waiting for dinner in FAW, and it was impossible to stop and do nothing. ”
Chen Youwei admired in his heart, being able to have such a deep feeling, it seems that this person's cold bench in the past two years has not been done in vain.
"Those who are half a step ahead are geniuses, and those who are one step ahead are crazy!"
Mo Ming shook his head and sighed: "This sentence really sums up my situation at that time too incisively!"
"Tuk tuk" was another knock on the door.
Xu Aili hurriedly got up, thinking to herself, it's really not the right time for Lao Zhou to come!
The time spent in FAW Logistics is not short, and Xu Aili's sensitivity to some things is much higher than that of Mo Ming.
was able to let Chen Youwei, the mayor of a city, find his home early in the morning on the weekend, Xu Aili didn't think that people were just making a gesture of asking for warmth.
An idea that was about to come out in her heart made Xu Aili excited, could it be that her man was favored by the young mayor and wanted to enter the rhythm of the Spring City Government?
"Mr. Zhou, you're here!"
Opening the door, Xu Aili saw Zhou Tianliang, executive vice president of FAW Group, with gray hair, and greeted politely.
"Ha Luha, Ellie, why are you so polite today? What is Mr. Zhou, don't you usually call me Lao Zhou? Zhou Tianliang's loud voice was impressive, and he laughed at Xu Aili.
Xu Aili secretly pouted behind her, signaling that there was a big man in the family.
Zhou Tianliang pushed open the door and said with a big grin: "I said that there is something wrong with you today, is it possible that Mo Ming is not there, who else is hidden in your house?" ”
The relationship between Zhou Tianliang and Mo Ming is irreversible, and they usually laugh and laugh with each other, but today's obviously ridiculous words make Xu Aili ashamed and angry.
"Huh? Mo Ming is at home! Zhou Tianliang entered the living room and was greeted by Mo Ming, who was crying and laughing, and then he was smiling.
Chen Youwei was bowing his head and sipping tea, and Zhou Tianliang didn't see it clearly for a while.
"There's a guest at home, what's this?" Zhou Tianliang returned to his usual solemnity and put on a leader's shelf.
Chen Youwei naturally recognized Zhou Tianliang, executive deputy general manager of FAW Group, and originally wanted to investigate Mo Ming at close range in a low-key manner, but since he was bumped into by someone, he naturally did not continue to hide it.
"Comrade Tianliang is here?!" Chen Youwei greeted with a faint smile.
Zhou Tianliang's body trembled when he heard the sound, and when he heard this somewhat familiar voice, his first reaction was impossible.
As the acting mayor of Spring City, Chen Youwei rarely wears a suit and leather shoes in private on weekdays, especially in public, in order not to make his age a topic, he even wears a pair of old-fashioned plain tortoiseshell glasses to look more old.
Unlike the acting mayor who usually sees him in public, who is at least thirty or forty years old, the young man who appears in front of him at this moment is only twenty-four or five years old, which makes Zhou Tianliang's scalp explode.
Oh my God, what's going on?
Zhou Tianliang subconsciously looked at Mo Ming, who shook his head with a wry smile.
"Comrade Tianliang is looking for Comrade Mo Ming, is there something wrong?" Chen Youwei got up and shook hands with the other party politely, and motioned for Zhou Tianliang, who was obviously in a trance, to sit down and speak.
Xu Aili made tea for Zhou Tianliang and took the initiative to go to the kitchen inside to avoid suspicion, but her pricked ears all showed how agitated her heart was when her cheeks were red.
Chen ...... Mayor Chen, I'm here to ask Comrade Mo Ming's opinion and want him to go back to FAW! Zhou Tianliang easily sobered up from the unexpected that was a little shocked, and he sneered when he felt out of shape.
Chen Youwei looked sideways at Mo Ming with a complicated expression, and said with a smile: "It seems that Comrade Mo Ming's ability in FAW is very recognized by everyone!" ”
Zhou Tianliang was originally the kind of person with a bold personality, and after he returned to normalcy with gray hair and early fifties, his words were the first kind of straightforwardness: "That is, Mo Ming is the most capable of my many apprentices, if it weren't for his nerdy anger, my current position would have been his!" ”
"Apprentice?"
Chen Youwei nodded slightly, with such an intimate relationship, it is no wonder that Zhou Tianliang will find Mo Ming to re-emerge from the mountain at this time.
Chen Youwei said that in a traditional large-scale heavy industry enterprise like FAW, many front-line grassroots veteran workers will usually bring a few newcomers who have just entered the factory as apprentices. This kind of master-apprentice relationship established because of the working relationship is very valued in the traditional factory, and it is with this close relationship of teacher and friend, often the personal relationship between them can also have a harmony that outsiders cannot understand.
"Comrade Tianliang, you're late!"
Chen Youwei took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to the two, and said with a slight smile: "Comrade Mo Ming, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to your FAW!" ”
As soon as Chen You's words came out, Mo Ming and Zhou Tianliang both trembled, and Xu Aili in the kitchen was even more nervous.
"By the way, Comrade Tianliang, has the nature of the land that needs to be developed in your FAW changed?" Chen Youwei changed his words, as if he was talking about an inconsequential topic, Mo Ming and Zhou Tianliang looked at each other, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this young and promising acting mayor in front of Lu Dao.
"It has been converted from industrial land to commercial land, but the specific development of the group company is still being discussed." Zhou Tianliang looked at Chen Youwei strangely and said patiently.
"Mo Ming, what do you think of the commercial development of that land if you are in charge?" Chen Youwei stared at Mo Ming, who was completely thoughtless, with blazing eyes.
Mo Ming was a little surprised and a little disappointed, the land area of FAW is only a thousand acres, if he is put in charge of the commercial development there, it is equivalent to excluding him from the core of FAW.
Zhou Tianliang also frowned when he heard this, and he naturally felt more empathy with Mo Ming's thoughts, and couldn't help but say: "Mayor Chen, is that a bit overkill for Mo Ming?" I'm still waiting for Mo Ming to come back to FAW to pick up my seat! ”
Chen Youwei said with a smile: "It seems that Comrade Tianliang has a lot of confidence in Comrade Mo Ming, so I won't hide it." If you ask Mo Ming to take charge of the Spring City Central Business District that is being planned, do you have any confidence? ”
As soon as these words came out, not to mention that Mo Ming was shocked in his heart, even Zhou Tianliang was also the boss with staring eyes, he never dreamed that such earth-shattering words would come out of the mouth of this young mayor.
There was a sound of broken porcelain in the kitchen, and Xu Aili hurriedly cleaned up the porcelain bowl that had fallen to the ground.
In the ecstasy in her heart, she only felt that her heart was beating violently, the words Chen Youwei just said kept echoing in her mind, and she was so happy that she almost suffocated, she understood that her man was going to turn over from now on!
