Chapter Seventy-One: The Big Picture

Judging from Lu Zhengdong's age, he should be far inferior to himself in terms of experience, where did he get this lightweight Enron?

Lu Zhengdong has enough background in the upper echelons, but this can't be completely used as a reason, he has seen such people, but no one has his kind of wisdom.

From the beginning to the time he left, the symposium was centered on what he was talking about. It's not like in the past, when the leader speaks, he takes care of his own thing. Those who really get the table in the city form a circle and closely surround the leaders.

Economic capital revolves around power capital, which is the norm, of course, the strength is not reached, and they are generally very self-aware, and will not go to the leader to join in the fun, that is, they are watching from the side, talking about something that is not salty or light.

And Lu Zhengdong is different from other leaders, no matter how strong or weak he is that day, he takes care of it, the strong can understand his value, and the weak can also take care of it, and they all surround him under his drive, and his thinking also jumps with his words, a moment of politics, a moment of economy, a moment of macro, and a moment back to the city. It was as if everything was under his control. He seemed to be tightly choking the political and economic fate of everyone. That day, Lu Zhengdong gave him the feeling that this was it.

Lu Zhengdong sent a very strong signal, his arrival means the beginning of Anxin's change, and from the symposium that day, the spring of Anxin's great development has arrived.

This is not just rhetoric, but the actual actions of the previous year have proved it.

To be able to become the mayor of an important industrial city in one year is not enough to have a backstage, and its future is extremely pale in terms of ambition.

It's just that Lu Zhengdong is so young is also a problem. It's like a daughter of her own. Ability is enough for everything. But the qualifications and experience are still not enough, which is a big problem.

Moreover, Zhan Jidong has the support of Secretary Jiang of the Provincial Party Committee, and naturally he is not an ordinary person, who has overpowered whom, in fact, it is really difficult to say.

Yang Bizhong thought for a while before replying:

"There are too many influencing factors, and I can't see it clearly, but it doesn't matter if I can't see such a thing clearly, just one way. It's more than enough to be able to participate in these powerful games, but to be able to intersect with all circles and navigate complex environments......"

As soon as the clarion call for the large-scale development of the western region sounded, all parts of the country, especially those with a keen sense of smell in the coastal areas, and the wealthy tycoons with a keen sense of smell all started to take action. Judging from the development process of reform and opening up in the past 20 years, this may be another quite good opportunity.

An Xin looks at Lu Zhengdong like this, and it is very likely to become a fulcrum. After Yang Bizhong got the large-scale development of the western region, he immediately asked his subordinates to make some plans, and soon the people below came up with several development plans.

It is no wonder that state-owned enterprises have been fighting with private enterprises in recent years. Always at a disadvantage, the efficiency of the two, that is indeed not wrong.

But it is not easy to really become bigger and stronger, for example, some state-owned enterprises and some private entrepreneurs, fortunately caught up with a certain node or opportunity, and the company made a lot of money, so they got carried away and shouted how I want to make the enterprise bigger and stronger

Yang Bizhong scoffed at such people, it is easy to become bigger and stronger, but it is difficult to become bigger and stronger with quality.

Especially in China, it is quite difficult for enterprises to become bigger and stronger with quality, which is definitely not a simple operation process.

This involves a long-term planning, rather than simply diversifying the operation, doing business needs to have passion, need to have courage, but can not be ignorant, those clamoring entrepreneurs, nothing more than two kinds of people, one is not yet to step into the upper threshold of the outbreak of households, the other is and some government officials have the same tricks of state-owned enterprise leaders, only hot-headed patted on the head, in fact, but is half-understood - anyway, the enterprise is not his, the money is not his, as long as the enterprise looks big, famous and promoted, What will happen to the company in the future is irrelevant to him.

Yang Bizhong imagined to become bigger and stronger, that is to be based on the long-term, he saw the opportunity, but how much money to use for expansion and enterprise transformation and upgrading, that needs to be demonstrated in detail. However, a major premise is not to affect the operation of the more profitable part of the present.

Before the liberation, Yang Bizhong experienced various movements in China, and such an experience made him always have a deep fear of changing policies.

From liberation to the present, especially after the reform and opening up, how many people have skyrocketed in value and become rich overnight? But how many people are because of politics, and how many people have lost their fortunes overnight because of policies?

For the former, there are many stories that everyone knows. But for the latter, not many people know much, and even if they do, they only sigh a few words, and those who have not experienced it will not experience the pain of the skin.

So when making such a key decision, Yang Bizhong is very cautious.

He is still the No. 1 person in Anxin, but after all, it is a private enterprise, with limited assets, and the more critical the moment, the more he can't be in vain, even if he can win Anxin Automobile, he can't invest a huge amount of money all at once, otherwise the city's leadership level changes, maybe the funds will fall into the quagmire, and they will never be pulled out again.

After all, the daughter is young, energetic, and always likes to think about the good side when looking at things, and there is a lack of consideration for risks, which is actually normal, after all, his daughter is not his age, and he is too cautious in doing things, so he knows very well that he can't be in a hurry about his daughter's succession, and he must choose to train it for several years, which will take at least seven or eight years, and after hard work and the baptism of wind and rain, they will really be pushed to the forefront, and that is the time.

The two of them finally decided on the countermeasures for this matter, since there is such an opportunity, for Anxin Automobile Factory, it can't just let go and do the work that should be done, but they are not in a hurry to make a move, the father and daughter decided to let Yang Sijin try to test first, so that he does not have to come forward in person, and there will be room for advance and retreat at that time......

Yang Sijin thought about it for a long time, but still felt that it was safest for her father to do this.

Lu Zhengdong also has a comprehensive consideration for how to solve the problem of Anxin Automobile.

Since Anxin Automobile wants to get out of trouble. The best thing to do is to make it bigger and stronger. Become a real automobile manufacturing enterprise. The automotive industry is at the commanding heights of the entire industrial cluster. Between upstream and downstream enterprises, and between enterprises with business dealings, they will spontaneously remove geographical barriers and work together to build a relatively complete industrial cluster. It is self-evident to do a good job in driving the downstream industry.

And the tax will not be less, and the most realistic thing is to solve the most urgent employment problem in Anxin City.

In the context of the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, whether it is the recruitment of regular employees, or the kind of contract workers and temporary workers who are not on the staff. The employment of hundreds of people is actually something that can be done with a finger.

The problem of clothing, food, housing and transportation of so many employees, those who understand economics know that thousands of consumer groups with a certain amount of spending power can almost form an exponential accumulation effect on the GDP growth of various industries.

This is what Lu Zhengdong wants most.

Nian Gong Ran has a certain ability and strength, but just her and the capital she represents are not enough.

Due to Zeng Huaide, Luo Zhilin and others setting up sets, Lu Zhengdong also made significant corrections to Nian Gong Ran. Nian Gong Ran is a choice, but it is not the only one.

It would be desirable for Anxin Automobile Factory to have more people on board. The best way is for foreign capital to join forces with some powerful local enterprises in Anxin, and such a consortium is stronger in terms of financial strength. Only then will there be a chance to really make Anxin Automobile bigger and stronger, and it can use local strength to eliminate a lot of resistance, which will be of great benefit to the start-up of Anxin Automobile and the long-term development of the future.

Whoever can do this is his first choice, this Lu Zhengdong has discussed with Zhao Yimang, whoever can do this, who will have a greater chance.

However, Anxin's local enterprises still have doubts, Lu Zhengdong also knows what they are worried about, what they are afraid of, so he talked about some of his views on the restructuring of Anxin Automobile Factory at a meeting, Lu Zhengdong said that Anxin Automobile can not be restructured because of the restructuring, but to let it be reborn after the restructuring, to consider as a key development industry direction in Anxin City in the future, to contribute more to the development of Anxin, and welcome more enterprises and entrepreneurs inside and outside the city who are interested in this to participate. Of course, the city will also make every effort to actively support and support within the scope of the policy.

Upgrading to the height of the industry is not a problem of a company, this is actually a signal to the outside world, the government will vigorously support its development, and this is also the fact that Belle Automobile is no longer the main candidate, and this is also a criticism of Anjinshan without naming names, which also means that the debate about Anxin Automobile Factory has come to an end.

In the eyes of the opponent, this is just another smokescreen for Lu Zhengdong to let Nian Gong Ran become the owner of Anxin Automobile.

An Jinshan looked at Lu Zhengdong's expression, and couldn't help but feel a little disdainful, Lu Zhengdong just likes to play such tricks and make this thing vigorous, in fact, it is just to build momentum for Gong Ran and others to become the owner of Anxin Automobile, but no matter what, this can't change its essence, the more Lu Zhengdong is like this, the more down-to-earth he is.

But on the other hand, An Jinshan also felt a lot of pressure, and Lu Zhengdong also made full use of this matter to hit him, making the people below feel that he was like a straw bag, which made him feel more or less uncomfortable, but when he thought of Lu Zhengdong's possible defeat in the end, An Jinshan could only endure it.

The most important thing he needs to do now is to calm down, and at certain times, doing nothing is actually the best choice.

Lu Zhengdong actually focused his firepower on An Jinshan, and did not expand it, he knew very well that it might be nothing to force one person to be anxious, but to force a group of people to be anxious, it would be easy to have big problems, so it was necessary to attack An Jinshan in a certain way......

The afternoon sun shines through the blinds and is refracted on the desk, Lu Zhengdong's whole person is shrouded in a mottled light and shadow, it is already May, and May means that half a year's work should be summarized, and Lu Zhengdong, who was already busy, was a little busier than the previous period. It's rare to be busy, and I'm alone for a short time sorting out some of my thoughts.

Unfortunately, it backfired, and this rare leisure was also ruined by the visit of an uninvited guest.

Yang Sijin, who was dressed in formal clothes, stepped into the mayor's office with elegant and leisurely steps.

Lu Zhengdong was not surprised by Yang Sijin's arrival, he believed that after his speech, someone would definitely come to the door, whether it was Yang Sijin or Zhang Sijin. But I didn't expect her to come so quickly.

Yang Sijin and Lu Zhengdong have met once. It was during the May Fourth Youth Day that just passed when I met with the youth representatives of Anxin City. An Junyi smiled and muttered in his ear that it was Yang Bizhong's daughter, and the beautiful and tall Yang Sijin stood out among a group of young people, and it was difficult for him not to remember it.

An Junyi knew his mind very well, so he didn't stop Yang Sijin when he arrived.

"Mayor Lu, excuse me."

Yang Sijin owed, smiled and shook hands with Lu Zhengdong, and introduced his assistant at the same time.

Lu Zhengdong smiled and asked Yang Sijin to sit down in front of the sofa.

"Secretary Deng, pour two cups of tea."

Before Lu Zhengdong finished his order. Xiao Deng had already walked in with two cups of fragrant tea.

"Please."

Lu Zhengdong made a gesture of please.

"Thank you."

Yang Sijin's eyes lit up:

"Mayor Lu, what do you mean?"

Lu Zhengdong lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, and said in a straight voice:

"This idea is very good, the automotive industry is indeed a very promising industry, but if you want to enter this industry, the starting point must be high, capital and technology are indispensable, and the risk is not small, I don't know what your father means."

"This is my personal opinion, as far as my father is concerned. He's backing me in breaking through. ”

Lu Zhengdong bowed slightly, Yang Bizhong's thoughts, he could naturally figure out eight or nine without leaving ten. Yang Bizhong said that he was sick and did not come forward, so he asked Yang Sijin to come to the front station and carry out the necessary temptation.

This is not difficult to understand, Yang Bizhong is an old person, doing things steadily, very cautious, although such a person seems to be slightly lacking in courage, but it is also a way of life, at least to ensure that the enterprise will not go up and down.

Yang Sijin was about to speak, but Lu Zhengdong waved his hand and motioned to wait for him to finish:

"It's a wise choice that you don't choose the car with the largest sales volume and the main truck in the direction of car manufacturing, because these two markets are big, the competition is very fierce, and the requirements are higher in all aspects. Moreover, in the main automobile products, the country's guidance policy is also changing rapidly. ”

Stepping into the new century, after 20 years of accumulation, many people who got rich first have more and more money in their hands, and cars will soon enter many families with a cross-century attitude, and the huge growth point and profit margin of the automobile industry will suddenly appear at this time, and the hot automobile industry will also heat up people's minds. Large and small auto companies are happy to keep their mouths shut, and many other companies are even more hot-eyed.

In a period of time, the car has almost been hyped up as a hot spot in the whole country and the whole market, the streets and alleys, the theme of people's chats is always indispensable to the car, and many market investment programs and planning are always inseparable from the automobile industry, the bubble of the car market and even the fat so that many economic experts can not calm down, so that the automobile industry is classified into the country in the next few years of the largest development space, the most lucrative industry. In this context, private enterprises that have been low-key have also entered the climax of car manufacturing, and have expressed their stance on how much additional investment, what models to produce, and even how much output they will reach, and become one of the top domestic companies.

Car manufacturing is a "national movement" that is spreading rapidly, and the most dramatic of this is that many well-known companies in other industries are planning to turn to the automotive industry. This is mainly concentrated in the extremely deteriorating market environment of home appliance companies, in their eyes, compared with the industry, the profit of car manufacturing is simply astronomical; And the "bull market" at that time made them feel that making and selling cars was not too complicated.

There is a famous saying from a boss who is engaged in the automobile industry: a car is just two sofas and four wheels, and anyone can build it!

Then he said with emotion: "It's not easy to build a car!" ”

The reason for the great contrast is that this is not the time, the former is that it has not yet obtained the license to manufacture cars, and the latter is such a "car-making boom" The fire unfortunately only burned for less than a year. Next, the avalanche of the car market poured a basin of cold water on it, and most of the "laymen" rushed to retreat across the board, and those who were forced to fall into it had to "knock out their front teeth and swallow into their stomachs", and the result was that the big fish ate the small fish, and the small fish ate the shrimp.

For starting from scratch and developing from scratch into the car industry, to be honest, Lu Zhengdong does not report a little confidence.

Because in fact, there is a glass door for building a passenger car!

First of all, it is not easy to obtain an ID card from the objective aspect, and secondly. It is not easy to introduce a model. If there is a problem with the aesthetics. Then your car will not be welcomed, and if you want to play a "super parody show", you will have to bear the risk of a lawsuit.

Again, it is the time to turn out to be born, and you have to choose a competitor who is asleep, but consumers are all over the world with a huge amount of money to buy a car. If all three of the above points are met, then good, from an objective point of view. You're ready to build a car!

But in the 21st century, is there such a good thing?

Among them, there are not only capital problems, technical problems, but also problems in negotiations with the government.

In addition to these, there is a more important point that the country's guiding policies are changing every year. This kind of change is not a big problem for large automobile companies, but for private capital that has just invested in it, sometimes it is not hesitant to be wiped out.

So, some people jokingly say that if you want to enter the automotive industry. You might as well make an appointment with some private entrepreneurs who have entered it to do an IQ test, and then decide whether to go out of the mountain. If it's true that IQ is not enough. At least it should have the madman temperament of Shufu, Chery's ambition, BYD's courage, Lifan's perseverance, Greencore's "guts", and Oaks's "flexibility", and comprehensively improve EQ.

This is not a joke, but a bloody summary of reality.

It is particularly important to be bold, and the entry point is very important, especially for private enterprises with a large gap in capital and technical strength compared with state-owned enterprises and state-owned enterprises, how to make a good start in the initial stage, which is particularly important.

Although Yang Sijin's plan is not explicitly stated, it must be positioned on some special vehicles, such special vehicles large enterprises do not look down, relatively speaking, the opportunity to come out is great, as long as it can be refined, its market share can not be underestimated.

Yang Sijin's judgment can still show his vision, Lu Zhengdong secretly said in his heart, Yang Bizhong, the old fox, gave birth to a smart daughter, and it seems that there is a successor.

But Yang Sijin didn't know Lu Zhengdong's thoughts, and she was a little bottomless in her heart, and listened to Lu Zhengdong's words quietly:

"But even so, it is still very difficult to make a difference in this industry without strong financial and technical strength.

Originally, what your company wants to do is completely up to you, but since it involves Anxin Automobile Factory, I can't help but talk about my opinion. I have said before, if also take over the enterprise is to engage in some vehicle assembly, it is a great waste of resources, the city hopes to be able to make full use of the company, take over the Anxin Automobile Factory is to be able to have a role, capital, professional staff, these are all need to be considered, to make a big deal, so I hope that the aspiring enterprises and entrepreneurs need to think long-term......"

The automobile industry is a capital-intensive industry, and even if Yang Bizhong puts all his net worth on it, it can only be regarded as a piece of cake.

Hearing Lu Zhengdong's words, Yang Sijin, who was originally full of confidence, was obviously a little shocked, Lu Zhengdong saw her like that, and said with a smile:

"From the government's point of view, I hope that it will not be a foreign company or a local company, the better we develop, the happier we are, not ......the other way around."

Yang Sijin pondered for a while before raising her head slightly, and said sincerely:

"I sincerely thank Mayor Lu for his heartfelt words just now. Mayor Lu has a responsible attitude towards us as a business, and he treats us as friends. ”

Lu Zhengdong knew that Yang Sijin was not the one who made the decision, but the meaning of his words, Yang Sijin would naturally bring it to Yang Bizhong, and Yang Bizhong must know what he meant - if you want to get the strong support of the municipal government, you must come up with more specific things in terms of capital and technology......

Lu Zhengdong quickly informed Zhao Yimang about Yang Sijin's visit, whether Gong Ran could get on the line with him, and whether Yang Bizhong would think of other ways, this is not a matter for Lu Zhengdong to worry about, what he wants is a result: enterprises or entrepreneurs who want to take over Anxin Automobile Factory must have decent financial and technical strength......

After Yang Sijin and others took the initiative to come to the door, Lu Zhengdong decided to go to the province.

Originally, as a city like Anxin, many things could be reported directly to the ministries and commissions, but Zhao Yimang and others in the capital were worried, and he could not come forward before it was officially put into operation.

The province will not have any financial support for Anxin City, but if it can get some policy support from the province and get the affirmation of the provincial leaders in charge of the economy, it will still have a great role in promoting this matter, and as the uncle said, for the leaders of the province, the contact and contact feelings, and also the contact and contact.

When Lu Zhengdong went to the provincial capital, he mainly reported to Governor Yang Lifeng, of course, he could not bypass Vice Governor Qiu, the leader in charge, and it was really unnecessary to report such a thing.

After Lu Zhengdong met Vice Governor Qiu at a meeting venue, he hurried straight to the provincial government, Yang Lifeng was about to go abroad for inspection, and it was already a luxury to be able to spare 20 minutes to report to him.

"Zhengdong, your idea is very good, the automobile manufacturing industry has a great driving role in the downstream industry, and it has a big picture, and it has not followed the trend and joined the ranks of cars."

Yang Lifeng tapped lightly on the sofa and continued:

"The future of the car looks bright, not only the funds are entering, but also the local government is strongly supporting, and now the car project is being launched everywhere.

This is the case in China, many times they like to rush up regardless of their own conditions, and the consequence of rushing up is that they will soon lead to saturation and overabundance, so they dismount again. Such a toss is a waste of money and labor, but such a lesson has been staged many times, but there is still no change, I am worried that the car will appear in the same situation as steel and cement and the problem of overcapacity, but you did not go to join in the fun, but found a unique way, chose the special vehicle industry. I think it's doable, it's an idea to turn waste into value. ”

Lu Zhengdong:

"After all, Anxin Automobile Factory has a thin foundation, and it is too difficult to get a piece of the pie in such a big market. In fact, to be honest, I don't have a big picture, but I was forced out by reality, Anxin has not been able to develop over the years, the conditions are limited, and I can only use what I can use, which is a bitter way. If the conditions were better, I would definitely have higher requirements for the Anxin Automobile Factory......"

Yang Lifeng couldn't help but laugh when he heard it:

"Zhengdong, don't complain, you know the financial situation of the province, I don't have any way to fund it, at most I will use my mouth to help Anxin promote and promote."

Lu Zhengdong said with a smile:

"The governor's mouth is also very valuable, and it is a great thing to be able to help with propaganda, and I thank the governor in advance. It's just the governor, such a company should also be supported, right? ”

The two of them have a friendship because of the last financial fund, and the relationship has become a step closer, so both of them seem to be more casual, and Lu Zhengdong naturally not only let Governor Yang verbally support, but at least ask for some policy.

Governor Yang asked him to help with financial difficulties some time ago, and Lu Zhengdong had no intention of asking for funds, but he still wanted policies, and he wanted incentive policies.

The province has introduced a special guidance fund to promote new industrialization as a reward for such enterprises, but automobile and auto parts manufacturers have not been included in it, the main purpose of Lu Zhengdong's trip is this, Lu Zhengdong saw that Governor Yang was in a good mood and also mentioned:

"In fact, the wool is out of the sheep, although this part of the reward is from the provincial finance, but the development of these enterprises to the province will also increase, the province will still make money, this is a double thing......" (to be continued......
