Chapter 1377 The turning point at the critical moment (second update, please subscribe)
Bang! Bang!
At the corner of the "ㄑ"-shaped slope, there is a tennis court hidden behind the shade of trees, and the sound of brisk hitting can be heard from there.
As evening approaches, there will be some guys playing tennis there. Those guys are sweating there and seem to be full of passion, but they are all people who have nothing to do with Zhang Songjie.
There is no half-hearted person who can be recorded in his personnel card. They are all "go-getters" - always arguing, studying, and working fiercely until evening, maybe late into the night.
Whether he was in charge of personnel affairs in the past or now as the executive director of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, he is still in charge of personnel affairs. Therefore, in Zhang Songjie's desk drawer, there is still a thick stack of personnel cards.
What was recorded on the thick stack of personnel cards were the "go-getters" in his mind, and he would always push these people out whenever he had the chance.
When we arrived at the five-story gray-brown building of the Patent Office, we could see documents piled up in the room through every window. Every shelf is full. In some rooms, documents were piled up like mountains and fell onto the windowsill.
The entire building is occupied by countless patent applications accumulated over more than ten years. There are people queuing up every morning, including inventors, attorneys, and of course patent attorneys. It is always busy here.
Zhang Songjie walked in through the convenience door, climbed up the low stairs, and poked his head under the dim corridor. A musty smell assaulted his nostrils, as if he had walked into a large warehouse or underground warehouse.
Although the two places are only a hundred meters apart, the atmosphere is completely different compared to the headquarters of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry.
However, everyone here also recognizes Zhang Songjie. After all, he is the number one executive among the six executive officers in the headquarters, and is also the first deputy in the headquarters, second only to the chief executive. How could others not know him?
After seeing him come in, someone immediately led him into Angel's room in a corner on the second floor. Zhang Songjie did not see him immediately. He was not sitting in the section chief's seat, but was lying on the bench behind him and reading documents. His face was pale and he looked like a sick man.
Angel was still lying still, glancing at the visitor with an accusing look. After discovering that it was Zhang Songjie, he stood up in a hurry, stood at attention like a soldier, and said:
"Why are you here? If anything happens, just call me..."
Zhang Songjie interrupted him:
"Right now, Mitty and the others are having a heated debate in the Law Review Committee, and the atmosphere is still so heated!"
"Oh?" Angel showed an unhappy expression.
Although Mitty entered the club two years later than him, he was already a strong competitor and a rival he was aware of.
"How was it? Do you want to go back to the headquarters?"
"Honestly, I...
"I know. You want to die in New York!"
"No, go study.
"For an old patient like you, living in New York with a harsh climate, there is winter there. With your body like this, I think you know what will happen when you get there!"
< br>
The reason why Zhang Songjie is so angry is because this guy is in poor health. Compared to the cold New York, the weather here at the equator is more suitable for his body.
"Yes, I know."
Angel's answer made Zhang Songjie fall into silence.
"At the same time, have you thought about the gains and losses of leaving the provincial headquarters?"
"Yes."
Angel snorted. The Ministry of International Trade and Industry is different from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It seems that the experience of the old-timers of the headquarters is that even those who have climbed to the executive position have not held overseas positions. They usually have experienced the special affairs office, enterprise bureau, heavy industry bureau and other headquarters after becoming section chiefs. Those key departments of the Communist Party of China have not even been to affiliated bureaus like him.
After all, it is easy to be forgotten in the affiliated bureau, so after some people leave the headquarters, they will think that they have been relegated to the sidelines.
"Don't give up on yourself."
Zhang Songjie scolded.
"No matter what happens, I won't give up on myself."
Angel was angry. How could this be self-destruction?
"Does Madam agree?"
"Agreed."
Zhang Songjie said mockingly at Angel's answer.
“Is that why you want to go to New York because it’s such a colorful world?”
"I don't have any frivolous thoughts."
Angel seemed a little excited, and the muscles on his thin face were twitching as he spoke. Even if the person in front of him was the executive, if he continued to talk like this, he would fight back.
That's right, it's a counterattack!
"If you don't want to die, I'd like to hear your reasons for going."
Zhang Songjie crossed his arms and sat on the chair, staring at the guy in front of him. When he was in charge of personnel, he "stuffed" this company into the personnel card.
Angel coughed while preaching:
"To a certain extent, we are full of talents here. Under the leadership of the company's bureaucrats, we have adopted a mixed economic form of cooperation between the company and the private sector. We lead the planning and the private sector cooperates to fully promote economic development. This is exactly Taking advantage of this economic situation, we have created rapid development in the past ten years, which has led to the industrial miracle, but we must also see that it is also showing a drawback -"
While talking, Angel coughed from time to time. He once suffered from tuberculosis. Although the disease was cured with streptomycin, the sequelae of tuberculosis seriously damaged his body.
"Because of past success, many people attribute the credit to us, thinking that the industrial planning of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry played a decisive role and that we achieved everything. Not only do we think so, but the outside world also thinks so. They Believe in us and trust us, which further boosts our self-confidence. It seems that we are really capable of anything!
So now, whether in the ministry or outside, I have a tendency to think that we are omnipotent, we don't care about anything, and even think that we are the "economic emperor", we plan everything, we control everything, but we... …is it really omnipotent? ”
Faced with such a rhetorical question, Zhang Songjie's brows knitted together and his arms relaxed, but he did not interrupt Angel.
"The reason why I want to go to New York is because it is the base camp of the free economy. Here, we emphasize control, mastery, and guidance. And there, capital uses its most naked side to develop freely, Maybe he has problems of one kind or another, but we can always learn something beneficial to us
So I hope to go to New York to learn and experience everything there firsthand so that I can make up for some of our shortcomings in the future. ”
Looking up at the executive in front of him, Angel's eyes burst out with unconcealable fiery enthusiasm. It was this kind of enthusiasm that deeply moved Zhang Songjie. Not to mention that there was anything particularly new about his arguments, but that he understood his mood of wanting to learn more and get more results.
Now the NBC Economy and the Ministry of International Trade and Industry itself have reached a "ㄑ" shaped slope. On this slope, you may reach the final summit and reach an unprecedented height, or you may slide down a thousand feet and fall to the bottom, unable to recover.
And the man in front of him is a man who dares to face this kind of turning point, even at the risk of his life and personal future, and wants to place a big bet.
Zhang Songjie especially appreciates this kind of attitude.
"Very good, go ahead, no, I will also give you a helping hand to get you there!" "Thank you very much, executive."
Angel nodded and thanked him.
Then Zhang Shunjie added:
"Whenever you want to come back, you can contact me at any time, even if it takes many years."
"How many years later?"
Angel's face looked a little embarrassed and he said.
"Thinking so far ahead, besides, you can't always do business as usual."
Zhang Songjie said with a smile.
"You don't have to worry about this. Even if I am no longer the executive, I still have to care about personnel work. Without a person with a far-sighted vision, it is impossible to have real personnel arrangements, and I want to be such a person."
Facing the speechless Angel, Zhang Songjie stretched out his hand and said.
"People always keep their promises, come and shake hands."
While shaking hands, Zhang Songjie said:
"When I went there, I took a few young people there. As you said, the controlled atmosphere in the ministry is a bit too strong now. They are used to being aloof, used to being omnipotent, and used to controlling everything.
And this is also the biggest taboo in the economy! They need to breathe some outside air. The economy is like a tree. If it is not pruned, it will grow unscrupulously, which may affect the growth of the trunk. If it is pruned blindly, it will be the same without any new ideas. Once the economy has no new ideas, then Recession is not far away. ”
Nodding vigorously, Zhang Songjie looked at the guy in front of him, smiled, and then gave a few more instructions before turning and leaving.
When leaving the Charter Office, Zhang Songjie looked back at the building again, thinking that maybe after he came back from the United States, he would bring some new atmosphere to the department.
As soon as he walked out of the concession bureau, a black BMW parked in front of him. After getting in, he told the driver:
"Go back to headquarters."
More than half an hour later, in Zhao Peiqi's office, Zhang Songjie expressed his thoughts one by one.
"...So in order to break the current deadlock, I think it is necessary to send some people to the United States, to New York, to fully observe and learn, and hope to bring some new vitality to the ministry in the future."
< br>
Let's talk, Zhang Songjie set his sights on Zhao Peiqi, the former executive who played a very key role in the trade negotiations many years ago. He has worked in several business bureaus and has his own opinions on economic planning and control.
"Well..."
Zhao Peiqi thought for a while, then stood up, walked to the desk, took out a report, and said:
"I have a report here from the Bureau of Heavy Industry. It's more of a complaint than a report. There is a company that wants to start a car manufacturing business. Of course, this is not within our plan. The specialist you know is currently working on it. Plans for comprehensive integration of the automotive manufacturing industry
Under such circumstances, for another company to want to enter this industry is simply rebellious, don’t you think? ”
"It would be treacherous. Capital is profit-seeking. When they see the profits and opportunities in the automobile manufacturing industry, it is normal for them to want to get in. Without this profit-seeking nature of capital, there would be no large-scale investment in private industry. . How can our electronics industry develop rapidly? ”
Zhang Songjie said straightforwardly:
"Just because you specialize in one person's ideas, you can't think that it's treason if others have other ideas."
Such words even have the momentum of being rebellious, at least from a traditional perspective - that's it.
"Haha, do you know what will happen if your words reach the specialist?"
Zhao Peiqi looked at Zhang Songjie and said seriously:
"You must know that this is the idea of the executive."
"The result?"
Zhang Songjie was silent for a while, and then said:
"I have never thought that the executive is an arbitrary person. I believe that he will agree with my idea. However, I hope to get your support at the meeting."
After a moment of silence, Zhao Peiqi nodded and said.
"There is no problem in sending a permanent inspection team to the United States, but I would like to recommend a few candidates. Do you think it is okay?"
"I already have someone I like as a team leader."
Zhang Songjie said straightforwardly.
"Deputy leader."
Many times, many things are unavoidable, even here.
After the two people reached a consensus, Zhang Songjie thought for a moment and then said:
"The one who submitted the report..."
"Don't worry, it won't be his."
Zhao Peiqi shook her head and said.
"We are a place where there is always debate, and everyone can bring his or her point of view, just like you want to inject some vitality into the ministry. To put it bluntly, you don't want this place to become a stagnant water, don't you think?"
Zhao Peiqi smiled and said while holding the report.
"It's just a report. Although he proposed some industry review and the like, it has no meaning. Of course, we also need to be vigilant. After all, we all know what the economy needs."
