Chapter 826: Seeking political power in his position!
Vice President Zhao could not become the Vice President of the Ministry of Commerce without the full support of Youjia. For this reason, when Li Jianshe sent someone to submit an application to him, Vice President Zhao signed the application form even though he knew that the application was against the rules. Put your name on it.
After returning to his office, Vice President Zhao felt uneasy. Recalling what Mr. Kou said to Mr. Yan when he left, Vice President Zhao became more and more panicked because he knew deep down in his heart. He knew that once this matter was brought to the Government Affairs Council, as the approver of this work, he would definitely be the first person to be dealt with by his superiors.
Considering his future, Vice President Zhao immediately pressed the red phone on his desk and shook the phone handle several times.
"Hello! This is the Ministry of Commerce. Could you please transfer me to the office of Vice Director You of the Government Affairs Council." The call was quickly connected. Vice President Zhao heard the operator's inquiry and said to the operator politely.
"Hello! This is Vice Director You's office. Who is it?" Vice President Zhao didn't wait long before a middle-aged man asked politely on the phone.
Vice President Zhao heard the familiar questioning voice of the middle-aged man and immediately introduced himself respectfully: "Director Gu! Hello! I am Xiao Zhao from the Ministry of Commerce! Is Director You in the office? I have something very important. Need to report to Director You.”
The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone immediately showed a friendly smile when he heard what Vice President Zhao said, and said to Vice President Zhao in a very gentle tone: "It's Xiao Zhao! Director You just returned to the office after a meeting. Just wait a moment and I’ll check for you if Director You has time to answer the phone.”
"Is it Xiao Zhao? Xiao Gu said, you have something very important to see me about? I don't know what it is?" After waiting for a few minutes, You Guokai's questioning voice came from the phone.
Vice President Zhao heard You Guokai's inquiry and thought of the reason why he called You Guokai. He quickly and respectfully reported to You Guokaihui: "Old leader! The situation is like this. Two days ago, Manager Li sent a person with a The application comes to our department for approval.”
"Xiao Zhao! What kind of invitation is this?" You Guokai heard the situation introduced by Vice President Zhao and thought of Li Jianshe's character. He couldn't help but frown. Before Vice President Zhao could finish speaking, he asked Vice President Zhao curiously. .
Vice President Zhao heard You Guokai's inquiry and quickly reported to You Guokaihui: "Old leader! The situation is like this. The application submitted by Manager Li is to require all supplying factories to increase production capacity and reduce the sales price of products, because your previous Explain it and I will sign the application.”
When You Guokai heard the situation introduced by Vice President Zhao, his face suddenly darkened, and he asked Vice President Zhao in a very serious tone: "Xiao Zhao! What did you say? Li Jianshe requires all factories that earn foreign exchange to increase production and reduce the production price of products. Isn’t this just playing the piano? If the Ministry of Industry knew about this, why would they have a falling out? How could you approve such an application?”
Vice President Zhao heard You Guokai's reprimand and felt You Guokai's anger, so he could only bite the bullet and report to You Guokai: "Director You! This morning, Mr. Kou from the Ministry of Industry came to our department to investigate for this matter. He also said that he would file a complaint against us with the Government Affairs Council.”
You Guokai never imagined that Li Jianshe would be so stupid and engage in such a saucy operation before he had even established a foothold in Red Star Trading Company. This made You Guokai very angry and cursed on the phone: "Zhao Hongbing! I let you Your support for Li Jianshe’s work did not allow you to blindly support his work. Don’t you know that foreign exchange earning is a key task of the Government Affairs Council? ”
Facing You Guokai's angry rebuke, Zhao Hongbing felt extremely aggrieved, because it was You Guokai who told him to support Li Jianshe's work at work, otherwise he would risk being punished by signing the application. ?
Thinking of the words that Mr. Kou said when he left Mr. Yan's office, Zhao Hongbing felt a big headache! He quickly explained to You Guokai: "Old leader! Manager Li promised me in the letter that no matter how much the factory reduces the price, he will never sell the goods at a low price, so I signed and agreed."
After hearing Zhao Hongbing's explanation, You Guokai learned the ins and outs of it, and told Zhao Hongbing with a strict look on his face: "Xiao Zhao! You immediately send a telegram to the Red Star Trading Company to ask them to withdraw their decision to ask the factory to reduce prices, and to pass it on to me. Li Jianshe said: "Things should be done according to their position! Don't engage in formalism!"
Zhao Hongbing heard You Guokai's instructions and felt the majesty of You Guokai. He stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead and replied respectfully: "Director You! I understand. I will send a telegram to Red Star Trading Company later. , asking Manager Li to withdraw his original decision.”
When You Guokai heard Zhao Hongbing's promise and thought of Boss Kou's character, he did not forget to tell Zhao Hongbing: "Xiao Zhao! Xiao Kou is a person who can't tolerate sand in his eyes. If my estimate is correct, he should arrange it Those factories began to cut production in protest of Red Star Trading Company's decision."
When You Guokai said this, he thought of Boss Kou's character and reminded Zhao Hongbing: "Xiao Zhao! Xiao Kou has a relatively straightforward personality. Remember to call Xiao Kou and tell him that you have withdrawn your application. , Xiao Kou must not be allowed to bring the matter to the Government Affairs Council.”
Zhao Hongbing heard You Guokai's explanation and immediately replied respectfully: "Old leader! I will call Boss Kou later to communicate with him about this matter."
When You Guokai heard Zhao Hongbing's promise, he did not forget to tell Zhao Hongbing: "Xiao Zhao! I asked you to support Li Jianshe's work more, but I didn't ask you to blindly support him. If you encounter similar principles in the future, you must not do it again." Support him unconditionally." Zhao Hongbing almost cursed when he heard You Guokai's advice, but he replied respectfully: "Old leader! I understand, and I promise I will never make this mistake again."
Zhao Hongbing, who was holding back his anger, hung up the phone on You Guokai and cursed angrily: "Old man! You told me to fully cooperate with you. Now that something has almost happened, you just distanced yourself from the relationship and blamed me for my unconditional support." Li Jianshe’s work.”
Criticize! In order to protect himself, Zhao Hongbing stood up from his desk, walked quickly to the office next door, and told the middle-aged man sitting in the office next door: "Xiao Liu! Come to my office."
After hearing Zhao Hongbing's instructions, the middle-aged man immediately followed Zhao Hongbing to Zhao Hongbing's office and asked respectfully: "Mr. Zhao! Do you have anything to do with me?"
Zhao Hongbing heard the middle-aged man's inquiry and said to the middle-aged man seriously: "Xiao Liu! Now go to the post and telecommunications office and send a telegram to the Red Star Trading Company in Xiangjiang and tell Manager Li of the Red Star Trading Company. Regarding Red Star Trading Company’s application to reduce procurement costs, the superior leaders did not agree! The previous approval made by the ministry was directly invalidated.”
When the middle-aged man heard Zhao Hongbing's instructions, he nodded immediately and replied respectfully: "Mr. Zhao! I understand. I will go to the post office now and send a telegram to notify Red Star Trading Company."
After Zhao Hongbing watched the middle-aged man walk out of the office, he thought of You Guokai's explanation. He reached out and pressed the phone on his desk, shook the phone handle hard a few times, then picked up the phone and said politely: "This is the Ministry of Commerce! Please excuse me. Please transfer me to the Ministry of Industry, Mr. Kou’s office!”
"Hello! This is the office of CEO Kou of the Ministry of Industry. Where is it?" Zhao Hongbing didn't wait long before a middle-aged man asked politely on the phone.
Zhao Hongbing heard the middle-aged man's inquiry and immediately introduced himself: "Comrade! Hello! I am Zhao Hongbing from the Ministry of Commerce. Is Mr. Kou here? Could you please let him answer the phone?"
The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone, after hearing Zhao Hongbing's self-introduction, immediately remembered who Zhao Hongbing was, and quickly greeted Zhao Hongbing politely: "Vice President Zhao! Hello! Our boss Kou went out for something this morning. Now, Haven’t returned to the office yet.”
When Zhao Hongbing learned that Mr. Kou had gone out and had not returned, his first thought was that Mr. Kou had gone to the Government Affairs Council to file a complaint. Zhao Hongbing, feeling guilty, quickly asked the middle-aged man: "Comrade! What is your surname?"
The middle-aged man heard Zhao Hongbing's inquiry and quickly introduced himself respectfully: "Vice President Zhao! My surname is Chen! My name is Chen Dongming, and I am an ordinary employee in the office."
Zhao Hongbing heard Chen Dongming's self-introduction and immediately said to Chen Dongming: "Comrade Xiao Chen! When your boss Kou comes back later, please help me tell him about the price reductions of various factories. Our Ministry of Commerce Bian has already retracted his previous decision, and the contents of the telegrams sent to various factories by Red Star Trading Company can be ignored.”
Regarding Red Star Trading Company's request for a price reduction, Chen Dongming heard it mentioned by his colleagues in the office, and even knew that Mr. Kou personally went to the Ministry of Commerce to investigate the matter.
Now after hearing the situation introduced by Zhao Hongbing, Chen Dongming immediately realized that Mr. Kou's trip to the Ministry of Commerce had achieved its purpose, so he promised Zhao Hongbing: "Vice President Zhao! Don't worry, we, Mr. Kou, will wait for you." When I come back, I will report this matter to Mr. Kou as soon as possible.”
When Zhao Hongbing heard the promise made by Chen Dongming, he said to Chen Dongming in a very cordial tone: "Xiao Chen! I'll trouble you then!"
When Chen Dongming heard Zhao Hongbing's words, he replied politely: "Vice President Zhao! This is my job, so don't be polite to me!"
When Chen Dongming said this, he happened to see Mr. Kou passing by the door of the office, and he quickly said to Zhao Hongbing: "Vice President Zhao! Our Mr. Kou is back. Please wait a moment, and I will ask Mr. Kou to answer the phone for you."
