Chapter 497 Chapter 525, Practical School (asking for monthly votes)
Kang Zhichao's sudden change of attentive attitude did not surprise Yang Hao.
After all, he has shown stronger financial resources, especially his leader Zheng Dongshan, who is polite to him and wants to discuss cooperation.
But Yang Hao really didn't like this kind of loser. He had already blacklisted the other party in his mind. However, after taking the tea poured by the other party, he still politely thanked him on the surface.
"Xiao Yang, if you want to go to our factory tomorrow, come and sit in my office."
"If you have anything you want to ask then, just ask me. There's nothing I don't know about the factory."
Kang Zhichao put the teapot aside and said with a smile.
"Well, time will definitely pass."
Yang Hao said casually, he didn't understand Kang Zhichao's little thoughts. Letting himself sit in his office was nothing more than "pushing the tiger's skin to pull the flag", let Zheng Dongshan and the factory leaders see it, you invite distinguished guests specially come to my office.
So, what attitude should you use towards me in the future?
"Xiao Yang, you don't know what Director Zheng wants to talk to you about, right?"
Kang Zhichao spoke again.
"Well, of course I don't know." Yang Hao shook his head.
"I guess they are talking about buying a stake in our Xiangyang Steel Plant. At present, our steel plant has been seeking transformation and responded to the country's call to complete the restructuring of large state-owned enterprises."
There was no need for Yang Hao to take the initiative to ask, Kang Zhichao just told everything he knew.
"So that's it!"
Yang Hao pretended to be enlightened, but did not continue the topic, but drank tea slowly.
Kang Zhichao, however, had no intention of leaving. He asked again: "Xiao Yang, are you interested in investing in our steel plant?"
"Not interested!"
Yang Hao shook his head: "You also know that I know nothing about the steel industry."
"This is normal, after all, we are across industries!"
Kang Zhichao couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he heard that Yang Hao said he was not interested in investing in the stock. He also thought that if Yang Hao could invest in Xiangyang Steel Plant, he could get a promotion through his family connections.
As a result, just when Kang Zhichao was a little disappointed, Yang Hao changed the subject and continued: "Although I don't know much about the steel industry, if it is a suitable business, it is not impossible to do it."
"There are quite a few people from Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant on site today. Are there anyone who is particularly knowledgeable about production, or are they middle- and senior-level leaders in the plant?"
While Yang Hao asked, he glanced at the two tables next to him. In fact, when everyone came to toast just now, he had already memorized a few names, all of which were from Xiangyang Steel Plant.
For example, the middle-aged man with a crew cut sitting in the corner of the table on the left, his name is Zhang Fengshou, he is the deputy director in charge of production, and he is also the apprentice brought out by Kang Jingchun, but Zhang Fengshou does not seem to be good at socializing, and he just came to the main table to toast. In other words, he toasted Kang Jingchun and did not take the initiative to come over and talk to Yang Hao like others.
"There are many, and most of them are apprentices brought out by my father."
Kang Zhichao pointed at a few people, but did not mention Zhang Fengshou. Obviously, his relationship with Kang Zhichao and others should be very ordinary.
Moreover, Yang Hao also noticed that when Zheng Dongshan came just now, other people from Xiangyang Steel Plant stood up to greet him, but Zhang Fengshou seemed not to see him. He was still sitting in his seat and drinking to himself. liquor.
Just now, Yang Hao was a little interested in this "independent" man. This kind of person is either self-righteous or has real ability.
Of course, it is also possible that both attributes are present.
Zhang Fengshou probably belongs to the type of both. Judging from his attitude towards others and others' attitude towards him, he is not gregarious, and his relationship with factory leaders and colleagues is average.
But such a person can become the deputy director in charge of production, which shows that he definitely has extraordinary abilities.
Yang Hao used his Fierce Eyes skill to check Zhang Fengshou, and his father's evaluation of him turned out to be "Double S"!
Loyalty level and business ability level are all maxed out!
No wonder he can still hold the position of deputy director despite being so unsociable. He really has something special about him.
Yang Hao picked up the wine glass, stood up and left the table.
"Xiao Yang, where are you going?"
Kang Zhichao looked at Yang Hao suspiciously.
"Get to know people who know your factory."
Yang Hao replied casually, and then walked to the table on the left.
As the focus of the birthday banquet, many people were paying attention to Yang Hao. Seeing him getting up and leaving the banquet, many people's eyes followed him to the table on the left.
I saw Yang Hao holding a wine glass and walking next to Zhang Fengshou: "Director Zhang, I want to toast you."
Zhang Fengshou was eating vegetables. He first felt someone blocking some of the light, and then heard someone wanting to toast him.
He raised his head in confusion and was a little surprised to see that the person who wanted to toast him was Yang Hao.
Although he didn't take the initiative to talk to Yang Hao, he had heard a bit about the other party's identity. After all, even Zheng Dongshan took the initiative to make friends with him, and he was the target of everyone's fawning.
However, Zhang Fengshou was naturally surprised that such a person came over to propose a toast to him.
But he was also someone who had seen big scenes. After a brief moment of confusion, he stood up and touched Yang Hao with his wine glass.
Although Zhang Fengshou is aloof and aloof, he is not pedantic, and he will not hold back when others take the initiative to show kindness.
However, everyone present at the Xiangyang Steel Plant was a little surprised when they saw that the person Yang Hao took the initiative to propose a toast to was Zhang Fengshou.
Especially Kang Zhichao, his eyes widened even more. He didn't mention Zhang Fengshou when he introduced the employees of Xiangyang Steel Plant present, but Yang Hao found him instead.
Kang Zhichao couldn't help but feel a little off guard, because his relationship with Zhang Fengshou was indeed not very good.
It stands to reason that Zhang Fengshou was Kang Jingchun's apprentice, and his relationship with Kang Zhichao should be very good. This was indeed the case at the beginning, but later as Zhang Fengshou's position became higher and higher, Kang Zhichao would always find him through the back door, and Zhang Fengshou has an upright character and does not engage in cliques or corruption, so naturally he cannot play with Kang Zhichao.
"Can we chat for a while?"
After drinking, Yang Hao took the empty seat next to Zhang Fengshou and sat down directly.
"What does Mr. Yang want to talk about?"
Zhang Fengshou looked at Yang Hao doubtfully. In his opinion, there should be nothing to talk about between the two.
"Let's talk about Xiangyang Steel Plant."
"I'm ready to invest."
Yang Hao lowered his voice and replied.
The banquet hall was very noisy, so outsiders couldn't hear clearly the two of them talking in low voices.
After listening to Yang Hao's words, Zhang Fengshou's eyes suddenly widened. He did not expect that this was what Yang Hao was talking about.
It is no secret that Xiangyang Steel Plant is undergoing transformation. The whole plant knows it from top to bottom, but employees also know that the chance of success in transformation is very low, because there is a high probability that no one will take over. The inside of the factory is too messy, there are big holes, and the investment is not cost-effective. It’s high, and you might even lose money.
"Do you really want to buy a stake in our factory?"
Zhang Fengshou looked at Yang Hao in disbelief.
"There is a plan, but it still needs to be investigated."
Yang Hao said with a smile: "That's why I found Factory Director Zhang. I hope you can give me some advice."
"Aren't you afraid that I will fool you?" "I don't think Director Zhang is that kind of person. Besides, the money is in my own pocket. Whether I invest or not depends on my own judgment."
After listening to Yang Hao's words, Zhang Fengshou subconsciously picked up the wine glass and shook it. In fact, there was no wine in the wine glass. This should be his habitual action when thinking.
“It’s hard to say there are so many people here.”
"If Mr. Yang really wants to listen to my opinion, then make an appointment after the birthday party."
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Fengshou said.
"Okay, then add a WeChat message."
Yang Hao immediately took out his mobile phone and added Zhang Fengshou as WeChat friends, and then drank a glass of wine with him before returning to the main table.
Seeing that the two of them broke up without a few words, Kang Zhichao breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little uncomfortable because he and Zhang Fengshou had broken up, and the other party only came to the birthday banquet for his father's sake. Just go up.
So of course he didn't want Yang Hao and Zhang Fengshou to get too close.
So, after Yang Hao returned to the main table, Kang Zhichao immediately came to Yang Hao and whispered: "Xiao Yang, if you want to know the situation in the factory, just ask me. That man Zhang Fengshou is floating in the clouds. It’s not down to earth at all, and what he says may not be credible.”
"Well, okay."
Yang Hao responded perfunctorily, but had no intention of continuing to communicate with Kang Zhichao.
It is foreseeable that he will not get much useful information from Kang Zhichao, because the other party must want to promote his investment.
The birthday party is over.
For Kang Jingchun and the entire Kang family, this birthday banquet was full of splendor.
After all, big names like Yang Hao and Zheng Dongshan were present to celebrate their birthdays, not to mention that in addition to the two of them, there were also well-known hosts and Internet celebrities with millions of fans, Li Manni, and Qin Feng, who holds the title of "the richest second generation in Shanghai" , and bosses like Color Sister and Xu Hongmei.
After the guests and friends dispersed, the Kang family went to Kang Zhifei's house in Xiangyang to continue the family gathering. Yang Hao did not follow him, but took Sister Se, Ye Wei and Qin Feng to the address Zhang Fengshou sent him.
It was a teahouse called "He Yue".
This teahouse is located near the family area of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant. It is not large in area. It is said to be a teahouse. The sound of playing cards can be heard in several private rooms, and most of the people drinking tea and playing cards here are old people.
Yang Hao went to the second floor based on the address sent by Zhang Fengshou and saw the deputy director again in the corner box.
In addition, there is a slightly fat middle-aged woman in the box at the moment. She is the owner of this teahouse and Zhang Fengshou's wife named Ding Lifang.
"Mr. Yang, please take a seat."
"I run this tea room. You can tell me what kind of tea you like."
Ding Lifang greeted her warmly. Her and Zhang Fengshou's personalities complemented each other. One was not good at interpersonal communication, while the other had an all-round personality. Otherwise, it would be impossible to run a teahouse independently.
"What do you recommend, Sister Fang?"
Ding Lifang was obviously older than Yang Hao, so he called Sister Fang directly.
"I have the Silver Needle that just arrived, which is considered to be the top grade white tea."
"I just don't know if Mr. Yang can get used to the taste of white tea." Ding Lifang introduced with a smile.
"I'm used to drinking, so this is it."
Yang Hao usually drinks all kinds of tea, but he doesn't have any taboos.
"Okay, wait a minute."
Ding Lifang responded, then quickly walked out of the box. After a while, she returned with tea leaves and skillfully stood by the tea table to make tea.
In fact, this kind of small teahouse does not have tea-making service. Guests make the tea themselves, unlike those large teahouses that are equipped with beautiful tea sommeliers, and even those tea sommeliers can provide in-depth tea tasting services.
Ding Lifang did it entirely because Yang Hao and others were the distinguished guests brought by her man.
"Mr. Yang, our Fengsheng family is a hard worker. He is very clumsy and very principled. It is precisely because of this that he is not very popular in the factory. I have told him many times, but he can't change."
Ding Lifang took the initiative to talk about her man's shortcomings while making tea, which was considered a vaccination.
"Go and do your work."
"There are still so many guests to greet."
Zhang Fengshou waved his hand unappreciatively, feeling that his wife's presence here would affect his work discussions.
"Mr. Yang, look at this temper!"
Ding Lifang immediately complained again, then poured a cup of tea for each of Yang Hao and Huang Qing, and then left the box.
"Mr. Yang, my wife just talks a lot, don't mind."
After Ding Lifang went out, Zhang Fengshou said.
"Sister Fang has a very good personality."
“This tea is delicious too”
Yang Hao took a sip of tea and praised with a smile.
"Mr. Yang likes to drink tea and will come here often."
Zhang Fengshou said politely, then changed the subject and went directly to the topic: "At the birthday banquet, Mr. Yang said that he wanted to invest in Xiangyang Steel Plant. Are you serious?"
"I can only say that I am very interested, and now I want to hear what Director Zhang has to say."
Yang Hao answered truthfully.
"The factory is a good factory. After all, the country put a lot of effort into building the Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant, but the people in the factory were so confused that it became a mess."
Zhang Fengshou shook his head gently.
"Does Director Zhang have any good suggestions for investing in shares?" Yang Hao asked again.
“Now is not a good time to invest!”
Zhang Fengshou shook his head decisively, and then added: "If you enter the market now, you will most likely lose money."
Such an answer was expected by Yang Hao, because he probably knew the character of Deputy Director Zhang before coming here, but Huang Qing, Qin Feng and Ye Wei were a little surprised.
None of them expected that Zhang Fengshou, the deputy director of the factory, would give such an answer.
"Mr. Yang believes in me. If you ask me, I will tell the truth."
Perhaps seeing the confusion in Huang Qing's eyes, Zhang Fengshou spoke again.
"I knew that Director Zhang was an honest man."
Yang Hao continued to ask: "Then according to Director Zhang's intention, Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant is really hopeless?"
"Not really."
Zhang Fengshou shook his head first, and then said solemnly: "But what Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant needs is a major operation, not a small local operation. It needs to be reformed in a drastic way, from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside."
When talking about how to save the Xiangyang Steel Plant, Zhang Fengshou, who didn't talk much, suddenly turned into a talkative person. He talked eloquently about everything from production to sales to operation and management, and he couldn't stop talking for more than 20 minutes. Come down.
