Chapter 212 Accidentally burdened with a lifetime of debt that he will never be able to pay off
Jiang Hu met Zheng Haiming’s secretary at the door of the office as soon as he got to work today.
The other party is obviously waiting for me.
This surprised Jiang Hui.
Did anything important happen in the factory?
Why haven't I heard anything?
"Ebe, America made a call to the factory last night and asked why you were not included in the list of people who went to General Motors to inspect."
"Factory Zheng is also now I’m confused, so I asked you to come over.”
Before Jiang Hui asked, Zheng Haiming’s secretary briefly introduced the situation.
But these words made Jiang Hui faint.
Are you not on the list of people who went to General Motors to inspect?
How is that possible!
But since people say that, then it must be true.
Full of questions, Jiang Hui came to Zheng Haiming's office.
"Xiao Jiang, this time, in the list of people sent by the Ministry of Machinery to apply for visas at the American Embassy, there are only Professor Zhu and me, not you and Chen Qi."
"The remaining three people are all from the First Machinery Department."
When Zheng Haiming said this, combined with what the secretary just said, Jiang Hui suddenly became enlightened.
This is someone who took a fancy to the quota for study abroad and replaced himself.
I didn’t expect that the legendary substitution happened to me.
It’s just that this time the group of people will probably be disappointed.
"Chang Zheng, it is estimated that the First Machinery Department feels that the opportunity to go abroad is rare, so they want to arrange for more important people to take a look."
"The other party did not understand the background of this inspection at all. If you mess around, there will probably be trouble."
Jiang Hui doesn't care much about whether he can go abroad for inspection.
But if someone takes his place, the nature is different.
I am not someone to be bullied.
"Yes, there is a director of the general office, another is the deputy director, and the third is the head of the labor union."
"Even if the First Machinery Department arranges for people from the Automobile Bureau, I will not I can understand it, but isn’t this arrangement just random?”
Zheng Haiming obviously almost understands the reason for the matter.
When he heard the news in the morning, he was quite excited.
After calming down, I found that the situation was not as complicated as I thought.
"Austin already knew about this, but we only found out later."
"Why don't you call the department later and ask about the current situation?"
< br>Jiang Hui always felt that there might be some information that he didn't know about this matter.
"Well, I will arrange for someone to go and find out about it later. Let's take a look at the situation first."
The people below will handle the specific procedures. Let the people at the practical level communicate first. Everything is easier to control.
Otherwise, it will be easy to mess up the situation without any room for maneuver.
This news is not that difficult to get.
Before Jiang Hui left the office, Zheng Haiming's secretary came over to report again, saying: "The First Machinery Department has removed Chief Engineer Chen and Jiang Bu from the list of overseas inspections."
“Then I changed the names of the General Office of the First Machinery Department and the leaders of the labor union, but when I went to the American Embassy to apply for visas, except for Zheng Chang and Professor Zhu, everyone else was denied visas.”
“It is estimated that the embassy also fed back this list information to General Motors.”
After hearing the secretary's explanation, both Zheng Haiming and Jiang Hui immediately understood the reason for the matter.
This kind of thing cannot be very complicated under normal circumstances, it is just a little reason.
Now it seems that it is indeed the case.
"Xiaojiang, the American Embassy does not grant visas to people, and General Motors also has different opinions. This time, the First Machinery Department will definitely not be able to follow some people's ideas."
" Let’s just pretend we don’t know anything and wait a while to see what happens.”
Zheng Haiming wisely chose a softer approach.
After all, the other party is from the First Machinery Department and belongs to their competent department.
Not to mention the personnel in the list, their level is no lower than Zheng Haiming. Even if they are just ordinary clerks in the First Machinery Department, there is no need to offend them casually.
You never know when someone will give you little shoes.
For some people, it may be difficult for them to achieve something for you, because they don’t have the ability.
But if someone wants to harm you, there are countless ways to do it, but it's hard for you to resist.
"Well, I follow the arrangements in the factory."
When things have reached this point, Jiang Hui has nothing to worry about.
What GM wants is for him to go and inspect. Even if he doesn't take any extra action, he will still appear on the inspection list smoothly in the end.
Sure enough, within a few days, the First Machinery Department officially notified them of the schedule for their inspection trip to the United States.
Relevant visa information has also been processed simultaneously.
"Austin, the list of people from China who went to inspect your company has been updated. Zheng Haiming, Chen Qi and Jiang Hui from the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, Zhu Jiansheng from the Capital Institute of Technology, and the Ministry of Machinery Yue Rui, there are five people in total, and the relevant visas have been processed yesterday.”
Just when Jiang Hui and the others received the contact from the First Machinery Department, the American Embassy also gave General Motors an visa. Sting made a phone call.
There are still not many teams going to the United States for inspections these days, and even fewer inspection groups like this go to key companies.
On the other hand, there are only a handful of cases where American companies take the initiative to invite others to inspect, or even beg others to inspect.
No wonder the embassy is also so active.
"No problem, we have arranged personnel here to conduct special docking, and we will definitely arrange this inspection."
Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, Austin He was very upset, but in the end the matter was settled. Jiang Hui would come over soon to inspect, and he was too lazy to dwell on what was going on within China.
"I think you can find time to have a good chat with Jiang Hui about this matter. Maybe it will be helpful in persuading Jiang Hui to join General Motors or study abroad in the United States."
"Obviously you invited Jiang Hui for inspection, and everyone else was just a foil. But in the end, he, the core figure, was almost replaced."
"Maybe he doesn't know these things yet."
Smith couldn't help but give Austin an idea.
Mainly because during this period, he collected a lot of information related to the Chinese automobile industry, and became more and more aware of how powerful Jiang Hui's technology was.
In his opinion, a person like this should create value for the United States. It would be a waste of resources to stay in China.
“Well, that’s a good idea.”
"When Jiang Hui comes over for inspection, I will definitely find an opportunity to have a good chat with him."
Austin is not stupid, so he naturally knows why Smith made such a suggestion.
......
"Dad, today the First Machinery Department has officially informed us that we will leave for GM inspection next Friday."
During dinner in the evening, Jiang Hui Let’s talk about the inspection trip to General Motors.
Although this matter has been mentioned to Zhu Lin before, the specific schedule has not been set yet.
Now that I have the confirmation, I must tell my family first.
"It has been a while since I went through the procedures to go abroad. The efficiency of the First Machinery Department needs to be further improved."
Zhu Jiansheng feels that he has handed in the relevant information for a long time. , the result has not been finalized until now.
“Speaking of which, there is a small episode.”
Jiang Hui was going to talk about how he was taken off the list.
Anyway, the matter has been settled. It might as well be used as a warning and education example for everyone.
"What's the episode?"
Zhu Jiansheng has been preparing for the large-scale mass production of Hummer military vehicles during this period, and has not paid much attention to other things.
Especially for things like going abroad procedures, you just have to wait for the result.
"The original list was Zheng Haiming, Chen Qi and you and me, leaving one person for the First Machinery Department."
"But when the First Machinery Department sent it to the American Embassy for visa application, Chen Qi and I Qidu is no longer on the list."
"It was replaced by a few people from the General Office of the Ministry of Machinery and the Labor Union, but the American Embassy did not approve their visas, only you and Factory Zheng. "
"Then the U.S. Embassy probably passed this information to General Motors, and Austin called us directly."
"So I told him. Factory Zheng knew about this situation and asked someone to confirm it with the person in charge of the No. 1 Machinery Department.”
"Of course, in the end the list was restored to its original state."
Hearing what Jiang Hui said, Zhu Jiansheng also felt speechless.
Don’t look at how the inspection team was set up this time, but Jiang Hui was actually replaced?
Fortunately, it was just a small episode in the end.
“These people have gone too far. How can they arbitrarily change the list submitted by the factory.”
Zhu Jiansheng didn't say anything, but Fang Zhen couldn't help it. If the person being replaced was someone else, then she would just listen to it as a story.
But the person being replaced is his son-in-law, so that will definitely not work.
You have to curse a few times, both high and low.
“This kind of thing is actually not unique to the First Machinery Department. I have also heard of similar situations happening in other departments before.”
“If we go to the United States for inspection, General Motors will be responsible for food and accommodation. I’m sure many people will want to go.”
“The price of one night’s stay in the hotel there is as much as a year’s salary for many people. . ”
Zhu Jiansheng is well-informed and has heard many things, so he is not particularly surprised.
This kind of thing happened before, it happens now, and it will happen again in the future.
“Then you have to distinguish the situation and decide whether it is a real inspection or a fun trip.”
"I just want to go out and play when I see those people."
Fang Zhen continued to say unhappily.
“That’s not necessarily because I want to go out for fun, but this kind of inspection opportunity is indeed rare.”
“Just like in some universities, the opportunity to study abroad is It’s very rare.”
“Some people will use any means to snatch this spot.”
"These people don't go to the United States for fun, but they really want to learn."
Fang Zhen couldn't listen to Zhu Jiansheng's explanation at all.
Fortunately, the situation Jiang Hui encountered this time turned out to be pretty good, so everyone just complained about it.
……
Going abroad for inspection is a big event these days.
Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant's visit to General Motors of America not only attracted a lot of attention within the First Machinery Department, but also the big brother FAW was naturally very concerned about it.
"Chang Geng, I asked around. This time the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Factory went to the United States for inspection, it was specially invited by General Motors."
"What topics will the two sides talk about? The Ministry of Machinery did not receive any specific report. "
Zhao Guangming knew that Geng Weidong was very concerned about the news at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant and about Jiang Hui's situation.
Now that they are both going to General Motors for inspection, Zhao Guangming must report to Geng Weidong.
“General Motors came over to negotiate with the First Machinery Department last year. At that time, they also proposed the idea of forming a joint venture.”
“For this reason, SAIC’s negotiation team specially reported to the superior department, and finally The chief engineer also gave instructions and agreed to the joint venture. "
"However, due to various reasons, the two parties did not actually establish a joint venture."
"This time the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant was established. Are you going to the General Motors headquarters in the United States to discuss the establishment of a joint venture? "
As the big brother, FAW naturally does not want the title of the first domestic automobile joint venture to be taken away by the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant? Gone.
But letting them rush to the front is worrying about the risks involved.
After all, it is something that no one has done before. If FAW wants to do it, there will definitely be some resistance.
“This topic may be mentioned, but it is impossible to achieve any results through this inspection.”
“If Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant really wants to form a joint venture with General Motors , We must report it to the First Machinery Department, and we can also hear relevant rumors.”
Geng Weidong is obviously very familiar with various domestic service procedures.
Although the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant has been very prosperous in the past two years, there are not many mothers-in-law at all.
Many things cannot be decided directly by the factory.
Even if they are a demonstration factory for factory power expansion reform, there is no way to fundamentally change this situation.
"That's right. I will go back and arrange for people to inquire about the news and see what they are going to do this time."
Zhao Guangming will definitely not refute Geng Weidong's views.
He would not do such a thing with such low emotional intelligence.
......
"Come on, Yue Rui, let's go one by one."
"Congratulations on picking up such a good job!"
In one place In the small restaurant, Wei Shuwu and Yue Rui gathered together.
The day after tomorrow, Yue Rui will lead a team to inspect General Motors of America. Wei Shuwu is here to see him off today.
The two of them entered the First Machinery Department together, and until now they are only chief clerks.
Although it doesn’t look too bad, after all, I didn’t have a “long” person, so I didn’t do well.
Those who share the same problem will inevitably get better.
“The whole group is full of very independent people. I don’t know if we can successfully complete this task.”
When Yue Rui said this, there was no sadness on his face, but a smile on his face.
Obviously, his words were modest.
“Director Zheng Haiming is rumored to be promoted, and it is most likely that Chief Engineer Chen Qi will take over his position.”
“Dean Zhu Jiansheng just entered the Capital Institute of Technology some time ago Committee, the future is limitless."
"As for Jiang Hui, it is even more difficult to say. He has rejected GM's invitation before, so there is no need to worry about him leaving the group without permission."
< br>
"Furthermore, Jiang Hui is proficient in three foreign languages, and Professor Zhu is said to be able to speak English well."
"General Motors has arranged special personnel to receive this inspection group, and even General Motors's attendees The level of the personnel will not be low.”
“In this case, what else do you, the leader, need to worry about?”
Wei Shuwu still did something about this inspection. I understand.
After all, this matter has something to do with the Automobile Bureau, so it is normal for him to be more concerned about it.
So after hearing Yue Rui's humble words, he immediately responded.
“Hey!”
“I took on this task by mistake. Originally, our Director Li was going to be the leader himself.”
"Who knew he couldn't even get a visa from the American Embassy? He might be depressed to death."
We are all old acquaintances, and Yue Rui didn't continue to be pretentious.
"Director Li looked too ugly this time. As long as he keeps Jiang Hui in the inspection team, he might be able to continue to be the leader."
"General Motors will issue Such an invitation will provide everyone with all the expenses for free, isn’t it just because of Jiang Hui?”
Wei Shuwu couldn’t help but complain a few words.
At this time, Yue Rui remained silent.
Just keep your head down and eat.
"By the way, I heard that further reforms are being planned in the ministry. For subordinate factories that are not operating well, they will consider outsourcing management to individuals. Have you received this information from the general office?"
< br>Knowing that Yue Rui didn't want to complain about his immediate boss's immediate boss, Wei Shuwu wisely changed the subject.
When people in the same unit gather for dinner, it is difficult to discuss topics that avoid some aspects of daily work.
Yue Rui and Wei Shuwu are no exception.
After Qin Hao went to the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant for investigation some time ago, he reported some plans to deepen reforms to Zhou Jian when he came back.
Naturally, it is impossible for such a big matter to have results in a day or two.
Various discussions and reports are inevitable.
During this process, ordinary staff members like Wei Shuwu and others must have heard some rumors.
Although this matter may not necessarily have anything to do with you, gossiping about these things is everyone's daily job in government agencies.
“I only heard some specious content. The leaders seem to have discussed it in meetings many times. It is said that the controversy is quite serious.”
"But it won't work without reform. There are more and more poorly run factories, and they will become a burden on the ministry in the future."
Working in the general office, Yue Rui is definitely more informed than Wei Shuwu a bit.
"It is true. The money earned by other profitable factories is almost not enough to subsidize those factories that are losing money."
"So reform is definitely necessary, and it is also the reason why many superior leaders "I don't know if the reform will really take that big step in the end."
Wei Shuwu also knew various situations in the factories affiliated to the First Machinery Department.
In the past decade or so, many factories have made little technological progress and have been resting on their laurels, without knowing how to expand their ideas.
In this case, in the face of the ever-changing situation, it is strange to be able to adapt to the changes of the times.
“Even if this reform plan is really passed, whether anyone is willing to contract the factory is still a big problem.”
“If you don’t make up your mind, you will be burdened with it for the rest of your life and you will never be able to pay it off. Debt.”
I have to say that the situation Yue Rui mentioned is very likely to happen.
After all, not everyone knows the future development situation and will not take risks easily.
