When Cao Zhiqiang proposed to join the equity structure of "Dongyang Company" in the name of Hongguang Machinery Factory, Chen Jiabang did not say much, but Secretary Dong and Director Li clearly objected.

The reason for the opposition is very legitimate, that is, although Hongguang Machinery Factory has a big business, it also has a large burden, and it is a state-owned company.

Therefore, if the name of the Hongguang Machinery Factory itself is mixed into this Sino-Japanese joint venture tape factory, it will not be of much benefit to the Hongguang Machinery Factory, but it will do a lot of harm to the newly established joint venture company, which is tantamount to transferring the burden of the Hongguang Machinery Factory to the new joint venture company.

The Japanese side is not stupid, and it is impossible for people to directly agree to the involvement of a debt-ridden state-owned enterprise without any investigation, which is negative equity.

And as we all know, the Japanese side has always been more wary of domestic state-owned enterprises, so if the Hongguang Machinery Factory has to get involved, maybe this joint venture tape factory project will be messed up, and no one will be able to eat it in the end.

Of course, this is all on the surface.

The private reason is more realistic, that is, Hongguang Machinery Factory is public, once the public participates in the joint venture project of "Dongyang Company", Hongguang Machinery Factory has become a sweet and sweet pastry, and when the time comes, Director Li and Secretary Dong will not say whether they can continue to take benefits, but say that with this big fat, maybe some of the leaders above will be red-eyed, and then arrange their own people to pick peaches to replace Secretary Dong and Director Li.

Secretary Dong is fine, but Director Li has been the director of Hongguang Machinery Factory for decades, why can he continue to be a factory director?

In addition to Director Li's flexible wrists, it is mainly related to the fact that the benefits of Hongguang Machinery Factory have not been very good.

Once the benefits of a factory are good, there will inevitably be more people who want to pick peaches.

Director Li is only a good man in the Hongguang Machinery Factory, but if a higher level person is sent down, he will also obey the order.

After all, this is a state-owned enterprise under the ministry, and the real boss is a leader at the ministerial level.

In the past, when the big leader was in power, that is, when Uncle Xu was still in power, this is easy to say.

But now that Uncle Xu has really retired, even if he still has some connections, but when it comes to the leadership arrangements of subordinate factories, he can no longer have the right to decide, at most he has the right to make suggestions, whether he listens to it or not, it depends on the meaning of the new leader.

Therefore, in the view of Secretary Dong and Director Li, Hongguang Machinery Factory is now the shell that continues to maintain this kind of debt, and it is best to be half-dead.

Anyway, whether it is Secretary Dong or Director Li, they are all old and are about to retire, so it is better to stand on the last shift, take advantage of the limelight of this reform, use their last power, and support the newcomer, that is, Cao Zhiqiang.

In the final analysis, the essence of Hongguang Machinery Factory is a factory based on machinery manufacturing, such a factory, why should Director Li and Secretary Dong go all out to support a service industry that can only write books and sing, and basically has nothing to do with the main business of machinery manufacturing.

Isn't it just these things that Cao Zhiqiang has engaged in, which can really bring more real tickets to their own homes.

When people are young, of course, they like progress and power.

But if a person is old and weak, and he is about to lose power, his favorite thing is money.

Whether it is a publishing house or a department store run by Cao Zhiqiang, they can really bring tangible benefits to Secretary Dong and Director Li himself, and of course, within a certain range, solve the problem of personnel redundancy in the machinery factory.

In addition, Cao Zhiqiang has the old leader Uncle Xu as a backer, so Secretary Dong and Director Li took the opportunity to give Cao Zhiqiang so much support.

If it weren't for the real binding of interests, relying only on Uncle Xu, a retired backer, Secretary Dong and Director Li would not have gone all out to support Cao Zhiqiang.

What? Uncle Lin's side?

Uncle Lin belongs to the secret department, and there are not many people who know Cao Zhiqiang's secret identity, even if Uncle Xu knows, it is impossible to explain it to people like Secretary Dong and Director Li.

At least so far, whether it is Secretary Dong or Director Li, they don't know Cao Zhiqiang's identity as a secret broker, and they only think that Cao Zhiqiang is a young man who is very talented in writing books and songs, and has a very hot brain, and is very good at drilling and making money.

More importantly, cooperating with Cao Zhiqiang does not need to be corrupt or corrupt, nor does he need to violate organizational discipline, and he can use the current policy of reform and opening up to make money reasonably and legally.

This is the fundamental reason why Secretary Dong and Director Li spared no effort to support Cao Zhiqiang.

Therefore, whether it is Secretary Dong or Director Li, now they just want to use their last power to pave the way for Cao Zhiqiang as much as possible, so that after they really retire, they can continue to eat dividends with Cao Zhiqiang.

As for the Hongguang Machinery Factory, it was not the pot of Secretary Dong and Director Li that it was like this, and they were really powerless, so they simply gave up.

Anyway, the worst result is just to be rectified and incorporated by other enterprises or government departments, and most of the old workers will not be unemployed, but just change careers.

As for the new young people, youth itself is capital, and the government doesn't really ignore them.

After all, it is not the time of the wave of layoffs in the 90s, and they will find their own way out at every turn.

The current factory transformation is basically a large factory with good efficiency merging a small factory with poor efficiency, and then the old workers are either assigned other jobs, or directly handed over to the government, and continue to shine in public institutions, which is generally very humane.

Therefore, from this point of view, it is most appropriate to join the shareholding structure of the new joint venture company in the name of Hongguang Publishing House, which is an individual contractor.

Because in this way, Director Li can cheaply contract part of the land and factory buildings of Hongguang Machinery Factory to Hongguang Publishing House in the form of contracting, and then Hongguang Publishing House will use these contracted land and factories as capital to join the joint venture company, and the management right is still in the hands of Huaxia Audio Company, Cao Zhiqiang's private company.

According to this model, Cao Zhiqiang will certainly not be disadvantaged by Secretary Dong, Director Li and Chen Jiabang, the three specific operators, and the public assets of Hongguang Machinery Factory can be transferred to the new "Dongyang Company" through this method of power transmission of contracted operation, using the turnover of Hongguang Publishing House, so as to complete the transformation of public property into private property.

At that time, everyone will not lose, only the loss is the Hongguang Machinery Factory, but the Hongguang Machinery Factory will be rectified and merged sooner or later, and it is useless to keep those useless industrial land and factories, so it is better to leave it to their own homes.

As for the issue of selling assets at a low price, as long as the contract is well written, reasonable, and afterwards, when the new company makes money, and then gives Hongguang Machinery Factory a site use fee or rent, there is no big problem.

At the very least, this way, you can guarantee that there will be no problems within five years.

As for five years later...... Who knows what the new policy will be in five years?

Anyway, by that time, Secretary Dong and Director Li had already retired, and the current domestic policy is not to be held accountable after retirement, so they can freely take the small money in their pockets and live their retirement life happily.

It's really not good, when you make more money, you can also consider going abroad.

It's not far away, but there's still hope for finding a way to go to Hong Kong.

I have to say that Secretary Dong and Director Li, both of whom belong to more discerning people, knew to go abroad to avoid danger so early.

And from a selfish point of view, Cao Zhiqiang also believes that their ideas and practices are correct and the risk is minimal.

Because compared to their operation, other people who are clearly embezzling state-owned assets are the real madness.

Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that the founder of Mou Mouzhi, who started as a computer and later actually engaged in finance, is actually a typical example of private embezzlement of public property, and the early means are more direct, let alone Face, but did he have something to do later? No problem at all.

The reason is very simple, that is, these behaviors belong to special circumstances under special historical conditions, and they are normal transactions carried out under the special historical conditions and special policies at that time.

In short, all subsequent laws and regulations, whether they are laws or regulations, can only target the behaviors of enterprises and individuals after the introduction of these laws and regulations, but they cannot trace some of your behaviors before the introduction of these laws and regulations.

If the current laws and regulations are used to trace the previous business behavior, it will be the same as Ah San's India, and it will only cause chaos at that time, and in general, it will do more harm than good.

To put it simply, the kind of operation that Secretary Dong said to Director Li is reasonable, compliant and legal under the current circumstances, and does not amount to embezzlement of state-owned assets.

If Cao Zhiqiang hadn't planned otherwise, he might have agreed.

But the problem is that Cao Zhiqiang is standing at a different height now, and he is no longer satisfied with simply making a small amount of money.

Just to make some money and live a good life, he has done it now.

As far as his current food and clothing level is concerned, it is difficult to say in the world, at least in the entire Chinese mainland, there are really not many people who can be stronger than him.

Even the country's senior leaders, at least in terms of food and clothing, I am afraid they are inferior to him.

At least some of the luxuries that Cao Zhiqiang can enjoy, those high-ranking leaders can't.

For example, Oiran coffee, some senior leaders can't drink it at this time.

There is also the real Wuyi Mountain Mother Tree Da Hong Pao, how many people can really drink it as ration tea all day long?

As for living, how many people can live like him now, and build an executive suite of the Jianguo Hotel all day long?

Not to mention money, Cao Zhiqiang's personal assets at this time, purely in RMB, have already exceeded 5 million, and this is still not counting the 500 million secret funds given by the state.

In this era when 10,000 yuan households are very scarce, he personally has assets of more than 5 million RMB, which is already a proper big capitalist.

has this kind of net worth, in the current domestic prices are generally not high, but anything that can be bought with money, what can't he buy.

Therefore, simply talking about making money, Cao Zhiqiang's interest can no longer be aroused.

In other words, in the current Cao Zhiqiang's view, making money is just his intermediate node, not his ultimate goal.

His real purpose is to benefit the country on the premise of continuing to maintain a comfortable life.

This is what the saying goes, self-cultivation and Qi family rule the country and level the world!

Cao Zhiqiang has now passed the stage of self-cultivation and Qi family, so he is thinking about the next stage of governing the country.

If there is no system, it is fine, but with the system, Cao Zhiqiang can try to use another means to implicitly push the country.

Promoted by the whole industry chain, he is definitely not so ambitious, nor does he have the ability.

However, according to the technology and equipment signed in by the system, he can still do it to promote the leapfrog progress of some industries in the country.

As for the issue of asking the state for money and national debt.

Cao Zhiqiang believes that this is not about money, nor is it entirely for his own safety, but more for the good of the country.

Because he doesn't want this money, he will give it out sooner or later, and there is a high probability that he will be cheated for a while.

Just kidding, after China's reopening, because it didn't know much about finance, in fact, it was not less pit by Western countries in the early stage, and later it was pit more and then it was pit out of experience.

Although Cao Zhiqiang doesn't know all the pits, he knows at least some hearsay pits.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang can use real high-end technology to exchange some scarce foreign exchange and treasury bonds in China, and he can control the country's export of these things to other countries in disguise, which is equivalent to making the country less cheated in the initial stage.

A lot of experience is not a long lesson only if you have been cheated in person.

As long as the reform continues, and the country is no longer closed, then over time, similar cases of other countries being cheated, they will naturally know more and more, and the more they know, their own financial knowledge and common sense will be enriched.

When his financial knowledge increases, there are more reliable experts in related fields, and his opinions are valued, especially if he does not let experts like Lin Zhengyi who really serve the country and the people be buried, then some pitfalls can actually be avoided.

Another point is that a large amount of funds from the state have come into their own hands, and they can use the name of foreign capital to re-flow into the country, and then focus on investing in some industries that countries do not look at now but are actually very important in the future.

For example, the semiconductor industry, the field of lithography machines, and even large aircraft projects such as the Y-10 can be used to continue to engage in this money.

What many people don't know is that in fact, in the early eighties, at least in 1983, China was not much worse than foreign countries in the semiconductor industry, lithography machine field and large aircraft field, at least there were many relevant experts and scholars.

China's semiconductor industry is currently mainly in the upstream industry, that is, like the research and development of semiconductor components, programming, etc., which is a little weaker, but it is not weak to catch up with that extent.

Although on the whole, China's semiconductor industry is much worse than the United States, Japan and Europe, but it is not too far behind.

Not to mention the lithography machine, in the early eighties, China's lithography machine field was not much different from Europe in terms of technology, and even surpassed Europe, America and Japan in some fields.

For example, Tsinghua University, which was later rumored, now has the world's leading "distributed projection lithography machine" technology with completely independent intellectual property rights, and because of this technology, Tsinghua University has become the only unit in China that can independently develop and produce high-end lithography machines.

The later lithography machine giant ASML has no shadow at this time.

Not to mention the Yun-10 project, this large aircraft is a large aircraft with real independent property rights, and so far, the technology has been relatively mature, and the prototype has already appeared, at least with the same period of Airbus related projects are not much different.

If we can continue to invest in R&D funds, continue to carry out various tests, do not interrupt the project in advance, and do not disband the relevant industrial groups and related personnel, then maybe as early as the 80s, we can have our own large civil aircraft, and we don't have to continue to buy foreign passenger planes all day long.

All these projects were launched in the 80s, and the reason was also because of lack of money.

The discontinuation of a project not only means the interruption of R&D, but also the fault line of relevant personnel.

Because it's hard to get people together, it's easy to disband.

And once it is disbanded, it will be even more difficult to re-recruit, which is equivalent to re-forming the project team, and everything has to start from scratch.

A typical example is the Saturn V rocket engine of the United States.

In fact, in terms of technical level, the Saturn V rocket engine is not the most advanced, but after the 21st century, the United States will not be able to build it.

It's not that the technology is gone, but that the relevant researchers and technicians are gone.

If there are no skilled workers, it will naturally not be able to be made, even if there is technology and drawings, it will be in vain.

Another example is the decline of Japanese LNG carriers.

In the early 80s, LNG ship technology was basically monopolized in the hands of Europe and the United States, such as Norway, Italy, France, etc.

Japan's entry into the LNG carrier program began in the late 70s, and Japan's first LNG carrier was built in 1981.

Since then, Japan's LNG carrier technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, gradually encroaching on the European and American markets, and in the early nineties, it gradually became the hegemon of this industry.

However, with the bursting of the economic bubble, Japan's manufacturing industry has also been hit, and many skilled welders on LNG carriers have had to change careers, resulting in Japan's loneliness in this industry, which has allowed South Korea to take advantage of the rise.

That's right, what many people don't know is that the rise of South Korean LNG carriers is inseparable from the large number of Japanese skilled welders hired in the early stage.

It is that group of skilled welders from Japan who have taught a large number of Korean skilled workers, and this group of skilled welders is the foundation of the Korean LNG ship project.

As for the technology, the related technology in South Korea is a hehe.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that South Korea has not mastered the Yinwa steel technology of LNG ships even if it is not mastered by 2023, and it still uses French technology, which is equivalent to building a ship, and it will have to pay an expensive patent fee to relevant French companies.

On the contrary, China, which came later, was unable to successfully obtain the relevant patented technologies of France and other companies because of the comprehensive restriction of technology from the beginning, so it had to develop its own technology, and finally developed its own technology such as Yinwa steel, resulting in the number of LNG ships made in China was not as good as South Korea at the beginning, but the profits were much higher.

In short, in the early eighties, China was not much worse than the West in some high-tech fields and heavy industries, but only money.

After all, China was too poor at this time, and it was necessary to solve the problem of food and clothing first, and then we could talk about high-tech problems.

Cao Zhiqiang can't control the problem of food and clothing, and the state is in charge.

But he can rely on his own strength to support these industries in several fields that he is relatively familiar with, and at least let the relevant R&D teams not be disbanded.

To put it bluntly, Cao Zhiqiang can't solve all the problems, but he still has a certain ability to solve very few problems.

He didn't know if he could do it, but he had to try.

If he can really do it, he will not be in vain.
