Chapter 184 Xu Chen’s Morning
In the past few days, Xu Zhiquan went to the city intensively for meetings, and Fang Jun followed him every time.
Because Xu Zhiquan discovered that taking Teacher Fang Jun to the city would always have some inexplicable communication effects that would get twice the result with half the effort...
What is currently being promoted is naturally the city’s “assistance” plan for Chenfeng Technology, including the introduction of production lines and financing.
Xu Zhiquan went to the city mainly to report the plan and synchronize the progress in order to get actual support from the city.
The city's "Targeted Assistance Plan for Future Industries and Private Enterprises" was officially launched, and the city TV station also made a theme report on the evening news.
Dongchen Co., Ltd. and Chenfeng Technology are key supporting enterprises. Chairman Xu Zhiquan also dressed neatly and accepted an interview with the TV station.
Of course, the rhetoric in the interview was mainly to thank the city for its policies, and to express its determination to build and give back to Tiancheng...
At the factory, Yang Congxin contacted Xu Zhilin and removed some workers from the seedling project and returned to the factory one after another.
Mainly, the renovation of old factory buildings, repair and sale of old equipment, etc. have begun.
Yang Congxin is extremely busy, but he is also full of energy and enjoys it.
Some old equipment in the machinery factory is not easy to sell, especially some lathes, drilling machines, etc., some of which are even products from the 1970s and 1980s...
When Guangming Factory was first built, many machines were imported as second-hand equipment.
What was unexpected was that boss Huang Furen Huang actually came to help.
He introduced several second-hand equipment recyclers from other places and collected all the equipment that the machinery factory wanted to clear out in batches.
Huang Furen was willing to help, so he naturally wanted to apologize to Xu Zhiquan.
Behind the scenes, seeing that Mr. Xu was prospering, not only taking over Guangming Factory, but also becoming more and more prosperous in the city, he hoped to continue to have a good relationship with Xu Zhiquan...
Xu Zhiquan knew this well but did not say anything. Except for thanking Boss Huang for helping to clear the equipment, he was lukewarm about everything else.
Boss Huang can help solve business problems, so let's use him temporarily.
But it is indeed difficult to have sincere trust in him, and more business dealings in the future are out of the question.
……
The funds obtained from the sale of a batch of old equipment, as well as some bank loans, etc., have gradually arrived in the company's account.
Xu Chen happened to be in the factory that day, and Xu Zhiquan specially dragged him to the finance room.
On Teacher Fang Jun's computer, the father and son counted together how many zeros there were...
Then Xu Zhiquan took a puff of cigarette and said with some emotion:
"This is the first time that I, Mr. Xu, have seen so much money. Unfortunately, it will be transferred away soon..."
Xu Chen smiled:
“I’m transferring it now so that I can earn back money doubled and doubled!”
Xu Zhiquan smiled heartily and hugged his son's shoulders happily.
……
……
Ji Yusheng, the old secretary, officially retired.
He still bore some nominal responsibility for the bankruptcy of Guangming Factory, but in fact, his life was not affected in any specific way.
Xu Zhiquan invited dozens of old factory workers to organize a farewell party for Ji Yusheng.
The old secretary was filled with emotion and burst into tears.
In fact, except for Ji Yusheng, none of the original powerful leaders of Guangming Factory had a happy ending.
The two vice presidents had already gone in, and Jin Guiyuan also went in two days ago...
Chief engineer Zhao Jihong had already left. Under Xu Zhiquan's introduction, he went to work as the technical director of a small local private factory.
Union chairman Zhang Min'en is still at the factory, but he is already very old and is expected to retire next year.
Xu Zhiquan also asked Zhang Min'en to serve as the chairman of the labor union and help organize some workers' activities and publicity.
At the end of Ji Yusheng's farewell ceremony, the old secretary took out a large copper-yellow key from his pocket and handed it to Xu Zhiquan's hand:
"This was given to me by the first director when I came to Guangming Factory to be the director sixteen years ago.
It is said that when the factory was built, the first key to the factory door...
The lock could not be found a long time ago, but the old factory manager still kept the key, and later it came into my hands.
Mr. Xu, I give it to you now! ”
Xu Zhiquan looked solemn, bowed his waist slightly, and took the big key with both hands.
The retirement of the old secretary, and this small ceremony of handing over the keys, symbolize the official end of the 23-year-old Guangming Factory...
Mr. Xu and Chenfeng Technology officially became the new owners of this land in name and in fact.
……
One day later.
On the top of the factory gate, several large iron characters "Guangming Machinery Factory" were dismantled.
It was officially replaced with the brand new "Chenfeng Science and Technology Park".
The two signboards "Dongchen Co., Ltd." and "Morning Wind Technology Co., Ltd." on the side of the door have also been redesigned into bright metal surfaces.
……
In the evening, the black Accord drove out of the park.
But suddenly stopped at the door.
Xu Zhiquan and Xu Chen got out of the car and looked back at the sign beside the gate.
Lao Xu was a little lost in thought and said:
“I have been so busy during this period that I didn’t even have a proper sign-up and ribbon-cutting ceremony!
I still have to make up for it later..."
He thought for a while, turned to Li Rui and said:
"Li Rui, go buy some firecrackers, red cloth, etc. We are still having fun today!"
He thought for a while and then said:
"Let's buy some food by the way! Let's have a meal here!"
Li Rui responded, turned around, got in the car and drove out.
Xu Chen walked to his father's side and was looking at the big characters on the door and the signboard on the side of the door.
Xu Zhiquan lit a cigarette and said with emotion:
“Just over half a year ago, I was still regretting the loss of the order from the machinery factory.
But now, we are already the owners of the machinery factory..."
Xu Chen: "Dad, this is no longer called a machinery factory, it is now called Chenfeng Technology Park!"
Xu Zhiquan laughed heartily twice, raised his arms and put his arms around his son's shoulders.
"Yes! Morrowind Technology...
Xu Chen’s morning! ”
……
A white Audi A3 drove out of the factory and stopped at the door.
The car window rolled down and it was Teacher Fang Jun.
She looked at the Xu family and his son, then looked back at the brand new sign, and said:
"Are you going to drink?"
Xu Zhiquan: "?"
Xu Chen: "..."
Xu Zhiquan laughed heartily:
"Drink!"
Xu Chen: "..."
Fang Jun rolled up the window, turned around and drove into the factory area again.
She parked the car and walked out expressionlessly.
She didn’t even have a bag on her, and she looked like she wanted to get drunk...
Xu Chen thought of the terrifying way she turned into a "talkative" after drinking, and showed a cute smile, but shrank back slightly.
After a while, the black Accord drove back. Li Rui got out of the car with a cigarette in his mouth and a smile.
He opened the trunk and took out two firecrackers, as well as some red flowers, red cloth, and red silk.
There were two young brothers in the security room at the entrance, and they all started hanging red flowers and red silk on the signboard and the door.
Xu Zhiquan and Xu Chen have also stepped forward and extended their hands to help.
Fang Jun stood a few steps away, folded his arms in front of his chest, and began to command expressionlessly:
"It's crooked, go to the left!"
"Those two big flowers are not symmetrical, the petals on the right are torn!"
"The red silk is blocking the words. Mr. Xu, you have to lift it up!"
……
"What is this for?"
Yang Congxin just walked out and turned around to see a few people working.
He smiled and hurried up to help.
Xu Zhiquan turned around and looked at Yang Congxin:
"Director Yang, didn't I drive that Teana for you?
Why are you still walking to and from get off work? ”
That Nissan Teana was the car that Jin Guiyuan used when he was the acting factory director, and it became vacant after he left.
Yang Congxin is now the technical leader of the factory, so Xu Zhiquan assigned this Teana to him.
Yang Congxin was a little embarrassed:
"Mr. Xu, I live in the staff building next to it. It's not even 500 meters away. Why do I drive a car every day? It's better to stay in the factory and use it to receive customers...
I still like to walk, just as exercise. ”
Xu Zhiquan smiled and handed Yang Congxin a cigarette:
"Old Yang...
When our electric cars are sold for money, I will give you a bonus and a salary increase! ”
Yang Congxin smiled: "Then I'll wait, Mr. Xu!"
……
Several people took a few steps back and looked up at the door of "Morning Wind Technology Park".
With a few red flowers and red silk hanging, there is still a festive atmosphere.
Xu Zhiquan laughed heartily:
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Brother Xiaorui, set off firecrackers!"
Li Rui responded, holding a newly lit cigarette, and walked towards the two strings of firecrackers hanging high at the door...
There was a "crackling" sound, and fiery red confetti flew.
……
Xu Zhiquan was in a happy mood. He went back to the car and took two packs of Chinese soft drinks, opened them and started to smoke again.
He seemed a little happy and confused, and actually stuffed one into Xu Chen and Fang Jun each.
Xu Chen looked helpless, turned around and handed the cigarette to Li Rui.
Li Rui smiled: "Thank you, Brother Chen."
Then he put the cigarette on his ear.
Fang Jun held the cigarette in his hand and looked at it, then stuffed it into his left breast pocket with an expressionless face.
……
A tricycle came from behind.
"Boss! Where can I send this food?"
A few people looked back and saw that it was a shopkeeper bringing over a tricycle full of vegetables.
Xu Zhiquan looked around and pointed to a flat piece of ground entering the park:
"Just put it on that open space for me!"
"Okay!"
The store owner responded and drove the tricycle inside.
Xu Zhiquan laughed heartily:
"Where's Zhao Feng?! They all live in the factory, so ask them to come out for dinner!"
Li Rui responded: "I'll call him."
……
The spacious and cool open space was filled with vegetables.
With a smile on his face, Xu Zhiquan sat on the floor and pulled Xu Chen to his side.
Fang Jun and Yang Congxin had known Mr. Xu's bold personality for a long time, so they followed suit and sat cross-legged on the ground without any fuss.
Zhao Feng and several people also ran over with a smile.
Xu Zhiquan had a cigarette in his mouth:
"Everyone sit down and eat while it's hot!"
Fang Jun had no expression on his face and suddenly whispered:
"Didn't you say drinking?"
Xu Zhiquan laughed twice:
"Li Rui, go to the trunk to get...
I remember there are a few bottles of Yanghe, bring them all! ”
……
The sun is setting.
The evening breeze is cool and there is laughter.
In the midst of the commotion, Xu Zhiquan carried a bottle of liquor and asked everyone to have a drink.
Yang Congxin was so drunk that he spoke with a loud tongue.
Fang Jun held the wine glass and drank carefully, but he was more restrained than before.
Zhao Feng and others each poured half a cup, but they did not dare to drink more, mainly because they had to be on duty at night.
Yang Congxin adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and said with a big tongue:
"Mr. Xu, I actually have a question..."
Xu Zhiquan turned around:
"Director Yang, tell me!"
Yang Congxin: "Why didn't you let me talk when I went on business trips to Jiangsu Province and Zhejiang Province to discuss production lines these two times?"
Xu Zhiquan laughed a few times, but then turned to look at Xu Chen:
"This is what Xu Chen told me. I am acting according to Teacher Xu's request."
Yang Congxin: "Ah?!"
He turned to look at Xu Chen.
Xu Chen was eating quietly and turned to Yang Congxin with a smile.
Xu Zhiquan spoke again:
"Teacher Xu also told me that I should pretend to know nothing and look like a rich rural boss."
Yang Congxin took another sip of wine:
"Why?"
Fang Jun had already drank half a glass of white wine, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised on his expressionless face, as if he was about to get into the mood.
Without saying a word, she turned to look at Xu Chen.
Xu Chen chewed the food in his mouth and said:
“They themselves make and sell electric vehicles, and when we introduce a production line, we also make electric vehicles. Aren’t we going to compete with them in the future?
Director Yang, as soon as you speak, they will know that we are knowledgeable and can really make electric vehicles work...
In that case, considering the future market competition, people may not be willing to sell the production line to us.
My dad pretended to be a rich local boss, but they felt more at ease, thinking they could make hundreds or tens of millions from my dad.
But they don’t think that my dad can really make an electric car.
If you go to them on a business trip to ask for advice, they may not even look down upon you, and they will simply regard you as someone who just sent you money.
Of course, this is the desired effect. ”
Yang Congxin lowered his head and thought:
"But later...will the city leaders take them with them?"
Xu Chen:
"The boss went there to talk to the leaders there, and it would not affect their company's judgment on my dad and Dongchen.
They still think that my father is an ignorant person who took advantage of me, so they are willing to sell the production line. ”
Yang Congxin thought about it:
"No wonder Mr. Xu is always talking strangely over there..."
Xu Chen turned to look at Yang Congxin:
"After the production line is introduced, Director Yang needs to get familiar with it as soon as possible.
Will they send technical experts over? ”
Yang Congxin: "Yes, it's all in the contract."
Xu Chen: "Technical experts are at your service, but their technology must be completely transferred to your own hands in the shortest possible time...
One or two models in the early stage relied on imported production lines.
When I accumulate technical strength later, I also need to look at the production lines and technologies of other companies or even overseas...
Then in terms of motor, battery, and electronic control technology, we need to gradually and consciously build barriers and moats for Morrowind Technology.
Only in this way will Chenfeng electric vehicles have the opportunity to enter the national market and not be easily defeated by competitors.
Of course, this doesn't happen overnight.
It may take several years or more than ten years.
But it is a long-term investment that must be continued..."
Yang Congxin lowered his head and listened, slightly lost in thought.
Xu Zhiquan put his arms around his son's shoulders and looked at Yang Congxin with a smile:
"Director Yang, how are you?"
Yang Congxin was startled, as if he had finally recovered.
He picked up his wine glass and said to Xu Chen:
"Teacher Xiao Xu, I would like to toast you with this glass of wine..."
