In 2012, Lenovo's influence was still very large.

Although Cao Yang is not optimistic about their acquisition of Motorola, it does not mean that others also see it this way.

So this epoch-making huge acquisition case is really popular on the Internet.

This is a relief to Dongying car companies that have always wanted everyone to divert their attention.

However, just when Lenovo wanted to take advantage of this wave of popularity to promote its mobile phones, a special news squeezed them out of the hot search.

[The blocking cable of the American aircraft carrier was accidentally broken, the plane rushed to the sea, and 8 ground crew members were torn off their legs]

The news, accompanied by several pictures, suddenly went viral on the Internet.

Since Huaxia is also engaged in aircraft carriers during this time, many people on the Internet have maintained a high degree of attention to aircraft carrier-related news.

When something like this happened in the United States, many people naturally actively made various comments.

"Mr. Cao, have you seen the news on the Internet that the US aircraft carrier 'Eisenhower' blocked the cable breaking?"

Early in the morning, Pan Jun came to Cao Yang's office very actively.

This is a relatively rare thing.

Most of the time, Pan Jun tried not to disturb Cao Yang.

Apparently there was something I couldn't help today.

"Weibo hot searches have this news, our Nanshan Special Steel also provides raw materials for domestic aircraft carrier blocking cables, I just don't want to pay attention to it."

"What, is there a story behind this news?"

Cao Yang invited Pan Jun to sit down on the sofa next to him, but he wanted to see what news he would bring to him today.

"Let me tell you, the landing of carrier-based aircraft on an aircraft carrier is actually not a very difficult thing for American pilots."

"After thousands of drills, the pilots and ground crews are familiar with the landing process."

"Everything was ready, the carrier-based aircraft began to land, and the AWACS aircraft that was smoothly descending hooked the blocking line on the deck."

"Generally, the blocking cable is hooked, and the landing of the plane has been basically completed."

"But at this time, an accident happened, and the blocking cable on the hook of the AWACS aircraft suddenly broke under the pull of the aircraft."

"The blocking cable that was pulled by the carrier-based aircraft whipped uncontrollably towards the crowd on deck."

"Some people jumped up and dodged the barrage, but some were not so lucky."

"There were eight ground crews working on deck who had their legs broken by a broken barrage."

"Because the power of the broken blocking cable is so great, some of them are even left with lifelong disabilities."

Pan Jun told Cao Yang again about the content of the news with a face full of gossip.

Eating American melons, Pan Jun is obviously very positive.

"It seems that this blocking cable is really not so easy to produce, and even the American aircraft carrier has happened like this."

Since Nanshan Special Steel participated in the research and development of aircraft carrier steel plates, Cao Yang also has an understanding of aircraft carrier-related knowledge.

Now there is no pressure to communicate with Pan Jun at all.

"That's right, that's not the most interesting thing about this."

Pan Jun was full of smiles, obviously there was still a lot of news that hadn't been exposed.

"Oh?"

"What other stories?"

Cao Yang was very cooperative and asked.

"That's a kind of story."

Pan Wei patted his thigh and said with great interest: "The blocking cable of the American aircraft carrier was purchased from our domestic company before, and you also know about this. ”

"Later, because we couldn't figure out the blocking cable technology ourselves, and if we bought it overseas, it would cost us $10 million a sky-high price, so the relevant parameters of the blocking cable were announced to domestic affiliated enterprises, and finally we accidentally found a blocking cable that met the requirements."

"After these barrages were discovered by us, the United States naturally stopped importing from our country."

"But the blocking cable is a consumable, and for safety reasons, every blocking cable has a useful life."

Pan Wei, as the liaison representative of the relevant departments stationed in Nanshan Group, obviously has a wide range of sources.

This kind of content that ordinary people don't know, but the relevant departments here in Huaxia don't need to keep it secret after they know it, and he must be very willing to share it with Cao Yang.

"The frequency of use of aircraft carriers in the United States is very high, so the consumption rate of the blocking cable is relatively large."

"The blocking cables imported from our country before have basically been consumed, and we can only purchase them from relevant domestic companies in the United States."

"The blocking cord that happened this time was produced by the United States itself."

"Since this company has not produced blocking cables for many years, if it wants to supply it temporarily, it can only be shoddy and delivered after modifying some test data."

"It turned out to be an accident."

"After hearing about this incident, the United States immediately demanded that all aircraft carrier arresting cables be tested, and found another batch of unqualified blocking cables."

"In order to produce a good arrestor, they had to find another manufacturer with a very high cost to produce it."

When Pan Jun said this, Cao Yang was really surprised.

I didn't expect the American aircraft carrier to stop the cable to break, and there is such a story behind it.

The suppliers in the United States are too bold to even falsify some of the data of the blocking cable.

It seems that I used to overestimate the quality management level of some foreign companies.

"In the past, the blocking cable we exported was only a few hundred thousand dollars, and I estimate that the purchase price of the United States itself should go to two or three million dollars."

"Actually, I think I can take the initiative to contact the other party to see if I can export it to them for $1.5 million."

Cao Yang made a joke, thinking that if this thing came to pass, it would probably be very interesting.

"We have shared this news with the manufacturers of the blocking cables, and we have allowed them to export the blocking cables, as long as they report them regularly."

"But I don't think the United States will dare to use it."

Pan Jun is in a very good mood right now.

In the past, Huaxia was blocked from Soka, but now it is the turn of the United States to suffer the loss of the blockade.

It makes me feel good when I think about it!

I have to drink three taels of Moutai more tonight.

……

After chatting with Pan Jun, Cao Yang really didn't treat this matter as a joke and passed it.

One of the most difficult points in the production process is the production of qualified steel wires.

The most important thing for qualified steel wire is to have qualified special steel.

Although there is Nanshan special steel, the level of special steel in Huaxia can be regarded as a new level.

Not only the bearing steel and axle steel on the high-speed rail have been done, the bearings on the wind power have been done, and even the aircraft carrier steel plate has been done.

But there are too many places where special steels are involved in all walks of life.

Huaxia's current overall special steel level is really not the world's leading.

"Academician Xie, have you heard about the collapse of the aircraft carrier blocking the cable in the United States?"

Since he wants to make some moves on the special steel, he must call Xie Lingyun over to discuss.

Although Xie Lingyun was able to be rated as an academician, a very important reason was that Cao Yang helped to come up with several special steels, but his own strength was also very powerful.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to become the deputy chief engineer of Shaogang without any background at home.

"I also just heard today that the special steel properties used by them did not meet the requirements, but the relevant test reports were falsified, and the results were wrong."

As an industry insider, Xie Lingyun must pay more attention to the essence of the matter.

Especially things related to special steel, he cares more.

"The importance of this special steel is still very high, and we now have a wide range of demand for various special steels in several industries, but we are not enough in terms of production capacity or type."

"What do you think about that?"

As soon as Cao Yang asked, Xie Lingyun immediately became interested.

Idea?

Of course he has an idea!

Whether it is the expansion of production or the acquisition of friends, it is a good thing for Nanshan Special Steel.

Although the annual output of special steel in Nanshan Special Steel is not large, its current influence in China is not small at all.

If it can be further expanded, then Xie Lingyun's own influence is actually expanding.

"Mr. Cao, in fact, if we want to enrich the types of various special steels, we need to participate in them from the crude steel stage."

"Otherwise, if the quality of the crude steel is not good, we need to spend more processes and costs to produce special steel that meets the requirements, which is not cost-effective."

Xie Lingyun tentatively threw out a topic that he was very interested in.

For a long time, Nanshan Special Steel's crude steel has been purchased directly from Shaogang.

It can be said that Nanshan Special Steel is not a complete steel enterprise, they are just a special steel processing plant.

This is definitely imperfect for Xie Lingyun.

Who doesn't want to have a steel mill with a whole industry chain?

"Do you have any specific suggestions?"

Cao Yang saw that Xie Lingyun had something to say, so he didn't go around in circles and followed Xie Lingyun's words and asked.

"The current crude steel production capacity in China is actually excessive, and some backward small blast furnaces have been eliminated over the years."

"At the same time, the control of new steel production capacity is also very strict."

"Although with the strength of our company, if you really want to apply for the procedures of a crude steel smelting plant, it should be approved."

"But I think it probably doesn't mean that much."

Xie Lingyun said as he watched Cao Yang's reaction.

He was ready to formally throw out a plan that he had been thinking about for a long time.

"So a better option might be to buy a company."

"There are many domestic steel companies, and the relevant departments are now encouraging mergers and acquisitions between iron and steel enterprises."

"In this way, the company can have the smelting production capacity of crude steel in the shortest possible time, and when the time comes, we can cooperate with Nanshan Equipment to make some changes to the production line and equipment of the steel plant that we have acquired, so that it can better produce the products we need."

Obviously, Xie Lingyun's plan has been considered for a long time.

As long as Cao Yang nodded, he was ready to directly take out the detailed acquisition plan and report it well.

"If you were to make an acquisition, which company do you think would be a good fit?"

Seeing Cao Yang asking step by step according to his meaning, Xie Lingyun's mood began to become excited.

"Shaogang, I think Shaogang is the most suitable."

"We've been working with them for a long time, and we know them well."

"Last year, Shaogang has fallen into a state of loss, and there is a high probability that it will continue to lose money this year, and there is no hope of turning around next year."

"In this case, selling Shaogang is not an unacceptable thing for its shareholders."

"And even if their asking price will be very high."

Xie Lingyun did not shy away from proposing to buy Shaogang.

As soon as he graduated from graduate school, he entered Shaogang, worked diligently for decades, and finally had today's results.

He must have wanted those people in Shaogang to see how beautiful he is now, when he was excluded at the beginning.

It's basically human nature.

"Shaogang is a listed company, so the acquisition procedures should be more troublesome, right?"

Cao Yang has not been very active in the listing of related companies.

In his view, the purpose of going public is to raise funds.

The company is not short of money now, what is it going to do?

Do you find a bunch of to toss yourself every day?

Some companies are very positive about going public, and that's because they want to cash out through listing, and then make a good profit.

But Cao Yang has no appeal in this regard.

Except for Weibo, which is an Internet enterprise, it is beneficial to the development of the enterprise after listing, and Cao Yang has no intention of listing other industrial enterprises for the time being.

Of course, in the future, some industries can still consider taking out the stock market to toss and play the role of blue chips.

But there's no rush yet.

"It's not troublesome, just find a professional to operate it."

"Even Yangcheng Bank has relevant personnel who can help with this matter."

"However, I suggest that we delist directly after the acquisition, and do not continue to be listed, otherwise it will not be beneficial to our acquisition work."

"After all, everyone knows the strength of Nanshan Special Steel, and if Shaogang is acquired by changing the shell, the stock price of Shaogang will definitely explode in the future."

"With this expectation, the price of our acquisition will be much larger."

Xie Lingyun had really thought about everything.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have answered some of Cao Yang's questions so easily.

Next, the two of them further communicated about related matters, and Cao Yang finally agreed to Xie Lingyun's suggestion.

The steel industry is a basic material industry, and if the Nanshan system wants to develop and grow, it still needs to have some of its own things in this basic industry.

Otherwise, many parts are likely to get stuck in the material.

At the beginning, whether it was carbon fiber or Nanshan Chemical, it was all to avoid being stuck.

……

When Nanshan Special Steel was going to acquire the news of Shaogang, Xie Lingyun must have first communicated with Chen Qingwen, the general manager of Shaogang.

Xie Lingyun, who has been in Shaogang for most of his life, knows very well what Chen Qingwen and these people care about the most.

After making some promises, Chen Qingwen also said that he would not oppose this action of Nanshan Special Steel.

Anyway, the current major shareholder of Shaogang is Baosteel, and it is not Chen Qingwen, the general manager, who has the final say on everything.

Now it's just that the boss above has been replaced by Nanshan Special Steel.

However, having said that, seeing that his former subordinates have not only become academicians of the Academy of Sciences, but also come back to acquire Shaogang, Chen Qingwen's mood must be very complicated.

"Mr. Chen, Nanshan Special Steel wants to buy us, and when the time comes, you can ask Baosteel to transfer our cadres back, so that your administrative level can continue to be retained."

Mo Yong, director of the sales department of Shaogang, is a descendant of Chen Qingwen, so he naturally knew for the first time that Nanshan Special Steel was promoting the acquisition of Shaogang.

As a company under a large state-owned enterprise like Baosteel, the general manager of Shaogang also has an executive level.

Although ordinary people may not feel this level of meaning, it is still very important for people in the system.

If Chen Qingwen's relationship is good enough, he can completely transfer from the enterprise to a local position at the same level.

In that way, a gorgeous turn in life was realized.

Whether it is a position at the county or city level, or a position at the provincial level, there are many similar precedents.

This is also the reason why many central and state-owned enterprises have administrative levels.

Only in this way will it be more convenient for those in need to circulate within the system.

Of course, this opportunity to move from enterprises to local areas certainly has nothing to do with ordinary people.

You are either strong in your own family, or strong in your wife's family, or you really hug the right thighs, otherwise this kind of good thing has nothing to do with you.

"We are not descendants of Baosteel, even if we return to the headquarters of Baosteel, at most we will be thrown into a certain department to do a position with no real power, which is not particularly significant."

"It's better to stay on Shaogang's side, Xie Lingyun has promised to let me continue to serve as general manager."

"At that time, the overall treatment will be closer to Nanshan Special Steel."

"The increase in income is not as simple as doubling."

Chen Qingwen also thought more clearly this time.

He knew that his upside was basically gone.

At this time, it is better to think about how to make money.

As the general manager of Shaogang, if he really wants to make money, he has many means.

However, he still has feelings, and after reigning for so many years, he really hasn't used illegal means to seek any big benefits.

So although he is not poor, he really has nothing to do with being rich.

Seeing that the child is about to graduate from college, it's time to think about the money.

"That's right, the company in the Nanshan system has a notoriously high income."

"Shaogang has fallen into a loss last year, and if it can be acquired by Nanshan Special Steel, then the new company will definitely not lose money."

"I heard that Nanshan Special Steel produces a little special steel every year, but last year's profit was higher than the money our company has earned since its establishment."

Mo Yong was also relieved to see that Chen Qingwen had decided to stay.

For a character like him, if he follows Chen Qingwen back to Baosteel, there will definitely be no good position to place him.

It's better to stay in this position, work well with the familiar way, and get a high salary.

It is estimated that there are many people in Shaogang who have similar ideas.

Enterprises with good benefits will acquire enterprises with poor benefits, and there will be many fewer obstacles.

Even in companies with poor efficiency, many people will expect you to come and buy them quickly.

Don't say it's trouble, if someone stands up to make trouble, they're employees going to do it first.

If you stop me from making money, that's my enemy.

In fact, this thing is also true on a larger level.

For example, the people of those countries such as Mexico ask them if they want to become a state in the United States?

It is estimated that 9 out of 10 people are willing.

"As a special existence in the domestic steel industry, Nanshan Special Steel produces high-end special steel that others cannot produce, and the profits are very rich."

"You and I are both professionals in this industry, and we both know very well that the difficulty of high-end special steel is not how high the cost is, but that the threshold of formula and process has stuck other companies."

"To put it mildly, most of the special steel products produced by Nanshan Special Steel will not be higher than the cost of the special steel products we produce, but the price is very different."

"So we're losing money now, but people are making money every year."

"Basically, there is no need for the sales department to do any work, and the capacity of the factory is booked."

Just like Xie Lingyun is very concerned about Shaogang and is very familiar with it, Chen Qingwen is also very concerned about Nanshan Special Steel, a neighbor.

There are already a lot of Shaogang people in Nanshan Special Steel who have jumped ship, so Chen Qingwen wants to understand the relevant information, and the difficulty is not so high.

Sometimes, however, the more you know, the happier you become, the more unhappy you become.

"If you want me to say, Nanshan Special Steel should have made a move a long time ago."

"The internal committee of the country is very encouraging the merger and reorganization of enterprises, and I heard that some leaders of ministries and commissions proposed to Nanshan Special Steel to let them acquire some enterprises, but the other party was not interested at all."

"It's good news that we can change our minds this time."

Mo Yong is now eager for Nanshan Special Steel to complete the relevant acquisition actions as soon as possible.

In this way, he was able to change from a staff member of Shaogang to an employee of Nanshan Special Steel, and became a member of Nanshan Group.

In the future, when you introduce your work to others, you can confidently say that you are an employee of Nanshan Group.

"We are a listed company, and the acquisition process is still relatively complicated."

"I hope there won't be any moths in the middle."

After figuring it out, Chen Qingwen was also impatient to act as soon as possible on the side of Nanshan Special Steel.

Otherwise, if you have a lot of dreams at night, and finally rejoice in vain, you will be depressed.

Even when Shaogang is in Baosteel, it may become a person inside and out.

That scene was definitely very embarrassing.

"Xie Lingyun is now an academician of the Academy of Sciences, and Nanshan Special Steel has a very good reputation in the industry."

"In addition, behind him is Cao Yang, the world's richest man and the largest industrial enterprise in China."

"I don't think anything will happen with this acquisition."

Mo Yong's confidence in Nanshan Special Steel seems to be more sufficient than Xie Lingyun himself.

To some extent, this can be regarded as a manifestation of the strength of the Nanshan system.
