Chapter 590 Commission
PS: Re-revised version.

I feel that there are big logical problems in what I wrote before. I hereby revise it again. Please forgive me. The reason why I didn’t update it today is because I have been sorting out this chapter.

------------

Under the office building of Huateng Industrial Group, Qi Lianjun, the director of Yuandu Diesel Engine Factory, held Zhang Qihang's hand tightly and laughed loudly: "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm here to wish you a happy new year. I wish you and all the colleagues in Huateng Group Happy New Year, all the best.”

Behind Qi Lianjun were as many as seven or eight heavy truck Steyr trucks filled with various items such as rice noodles, oil, grains, meat, eggs, hairtail and so on.

Zhang Qihang continued to be polite: "Director Qi, you are so polite. You are our senior, and Weichai is also our big brother. If we want to say New Year greetings, we should go to you first. This is really... Sigh, you Let me say something..."

While being polite, Zhang Qihang and the leaders of Huateng Industrial Group who accompanied him were still more puzzled and puzzled: What is Weichai doing?What is Qi Lianjun doing here?How could he take the initiative to give us New Year greetings?
As the leader of Weichai, Qi Lianjun came to give New Year's greetings and presents to the big guys. It seems that there is nothing to say. After all, according to the plan of Huateng Industrial Group, in the GALA luxury bus project that they cooperate with Isuzu Motors, they will use The WD615 diesel engine produced by Weichai replaces Isuzu's 10PE1 diesel engine to achieve localized supply of the engine.

According to the agreement reached between Huateng Industrial Group and Weichai, Weichai will send a professional engineering technical team to assist Huateng Industrial Group in testing and adapting Weichai WD615 diesel engine and Isuzu GALA luxury bus after the new year. Match, from this point of view, it seems that there is no problem for Qi Lianjun to come to Huateng Industrial Group to pay New Year's greetings-Huateng Industrial Group is Weichai's patron father.

But that's not the case at all.

The current Weichai is a supporting subsidiary of Sinotruk Group, but at the moment Sinotruk Group is a serious state-owned enterprise under the management of the Central State Z Committee. That is to say, the current Weichai is actually a subsidiary of a large central enterprise, and it is also a core subsidiary.

As the top leader of Weichai, Qi Lianjun is also one of the core executives of Sinotruk Group and a member of the leadership team. In addition, he is also one of the main leaders of Yuan City. In terms of administrative level, It belongs to the well-known deputy bureau-level leaders.

And just two days ago, Zhang Qihang also contacted Weichai, saying that he would go to Weichai’s leaders and workers to pay New Year’s greetings next Monday. Then the problem came, the executives of a large central enterprise, under such circumstances Came here to pay New Year's greetings to a municipal state-owned holding company. What's going on?What is Qi Lianjun doing?
Not only Zhang Qihang was beating drums in his heart, but the other leaders of Huateng Industrial Group were also beating drums in their hearts: this New Year's greeting is not like a normal New Year's greeting...

Of course, the astonishment on Zhang Qihang's face couldn't hide from Qi Lianjun, but this was exactly what he wanted. He nodded with a smile and said, "Then everything will be said... Well, it's quite cold outside, why don't we go in and talk?"

"Look at my brain," Zhang Qihang heard and slapped his head vigorously: "President Qi, and the leaders of Weichai, please hurry up, let's go in and have a cup of tea to warm up. Since you are here today, say We can’t rush away, we must give us an immediate opportunity to show our sincerity...Old Yang, make arrangements.”

Yang Zhijun nodded immediately: "I'll go right away!"

what to arrange?
Of course, it is to arrange the reception work.

........................

Needless to say, the next reception work, although the time is a bit tight, Huateng Industrial Group has shown [-]% sincerity, not only that, considering Yang Zhijun's identity, status and the influence of Sinotruk Group, The prefectural committee and the administrative office, which received the notice from Huateng Industrial Group, also sent several important leaders to accompany them, and the whole reception work was booming.

After lunch, Zhang Qihang politely extended an invitation to Qi Lianjun: "President Qi, I have some good tea in my office, come to my office for a cup of tea?"

Although we don't know what Weichai is doing, one thing Zhang Qihang can be sure of is that the arrival of Qi Lianjun is definitely not that simple.

Sure enough, upon hearing Zhang Qihang's invitation of "What's the matter, let's go to my office for a private chat?", Qi Lianjun immediately responded.

After sitting down in Zhang Qihang's office, Qi Lianjun finally explained his intentions without going around in circles: "Mr. Zhang, I'm here this time, one is to give our big guys New Year's greetings, and the other is to ask our Hua Teng for help. of."

"Help?"

As soon as Qi Lianjun said this, Zhang Qihang frowned immediately, and said puzzledly: "Mr. Qi, Weichai is a state-owned enterprise, and you come to ask me for help? Your words...why do I not understand?"

You think that a well-connected leader of a state-owned enterprise can't solve the problem, but you think I, a person from a municipal state-owned enterprise, can solve it?

You Qi Lianjun think highly of me, Zhang Qihang, don't you?
Of course Qi Lianjun understood what Zhang Qihang meant, he smiled wryly and said: "I know this matter sounds a bit difficult to understand, but let's put it this way, only you can really help me with this matter."

Zhang Qihang was delighted to hear this: "President Qi, according to what I have learned, Weichai achieved a turnover of nearly 1994 million in the past 9, of which more than 615 WD7000 diesel engines were produced and sold. , In addition, Hangchai, a subsidiary of our Sinotruk Group, seems to have produced more than 3000 WD615 diesel engines, which means that in the past 1994, our Sinotruk Group produced and sold more than [-] Steyr heavy trucks.

1994 units of Steyr heavy trucks. For this item alone, our Sinotruk Group has achieved sales revenue of 50 to [-] million?Coupled with other industries, in the past [-], our Sinotruk Group achieved at least an annual revenue of more than [-] billion.

Such a huge heavy truck empire, you tell me that you have encountered difficulties, and only I can help you with this difficulty..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Qihang looked at Qi Lianjun helplessly, and sighed: "President Qi, if you were in my position, do you think I would believe it?"

This has another meaning, namely: even if you, Qi Lianjun, are really in trouble, but Qi Lianjun, you think that even someone as powerful as you, Qi Lianjun, can’t solve this difficulty. Immediately disappear?
Qi Lianjun nodded with a wry smile: "Mr. Zhang, I understand what you mean, but please rest assured that since I came to find you, it must be because this matter is within your ability. In addition, this matter is related to you Hua Teng Whether the industrial group can obtain the WD615 diesel engine in a stable manner with quality and quantity in the future, so..."

Trouble!
Zhang Qihang immediately frowned: This incident is actually related to the WD615 diesel engine?
He didn't doubt that Qi Lianjun would lie about this kind of matter. If this happened, the matter would be really troublesome. You must know that in his plan, the WD615 diesel engine is a very important part, but now, this matter is so serious. Big hidden danger?

Zhang Qihang didn't speak, neither did Qi Lianjun, he just looked at Zhang Qihang quietly, waiting for him to make a decision.

After a while, Zhang Qihang finally spoke with a wry smile: "Why don't you... tell me what's going on first, and let me see if my small body can hold it up..."

If you can hold it, then try it yourself, but if you can’t hold it, then there is nothing to say, the big deal is to directly purchase the original 10PE 1 diesel engine on Isuzu GALA, as for the extra foreign exchange spent on purchasing Isuzu diesel engine... ... It is estimated that the difficulty of obtaining this foreign exchange is not as difficult as helping Qi Lianjun.

Hearing what Zhang Qihang said, Qi Lianjun heaved a sigh of relief, and said quickly: "Actually, it's not a big deal...Mr. Zhang, you know that I am not only in charge of Weichai's work, but also part-time at Sinotruk Group. Do some work?"

Seeing Zhang Qihang nodding his head, Qi Lianjun continued: "That's right. Years ago, the organization had a talk with me. I hope that I will hand over the work from Weichai after the new year, and focus more on Sinotruk in the future. Over there." Speaking of this, Qi Lianjun's expression also became serious: "Mr. Zhang, I am here today to expose myself as an ugly man. Weichai has developed well over the years, but such a large factory, if you say that there is no point below. I guess you don't believe it either."

"This...hehe...the factory is like this when it grows up, it's understandable..."

Zhang Qihang didn't know how to answer these words, so he smiled awkwardly.

Qi Lianjun nodded and continued: "When I was here, relying on me and Lao Fang, I could still suppress some people honestly, but now Lao Fang has gone to Sinotruk, if I leave again..."

After all, Zhang Qihang is not stupid, and thinking of some weird operations of Weichai and Sinotruk in the next few years, he suddenly widened his eyes: "President Qi, what do you mean... someone deliberately transferred you to Sinotruk Group ?”

Qi Lianjun's expression was a bit bitter: "It can't be said that it was intentional. Didn't I join the leadership team of Sinotruk Group a few years ago? It's just that the leaders think that I am old and have limited energy. They hope that I will focus more on Sinotruk. Here..."

really!

That's it!

Looking at Qi Lianjun with a bitter face, some memories about Sinotruk and Weichai came to Zhang Qihang's mind, and his heart churned violently:
Weichai Group is the most important partner of AVL in China. In his previous life, Zhang Qihang often went to Weichai on behalf of AVL. He knew something about Weichai, especially its historical development. Chaidu maintained a thriving development momentum. By 1995, Weichai had reached its peak before 1995, achieving sales of more than 2000 million yuan that year.

However, from 1996 to 1998, Weichai, which had a strong development momentum, suddenly fell off a cliff. In just three years, Weichai owed interest, fees, and taxes as much as 3.6 million. It was due to the failure to pay wages for more than half a year. In just three years, Weichai has transformed from a provincial-level brand-name enterprise with booming production and sales into a factory on the verge of bankruptcy until June 1998. After Tan Xuguang was successfully elected as the new factory director, Weichai slowly started to develop again.

Zhang Qihang, who represented AVL in Weichai for a period of time, was quite curious about what happened during 1995, but as a representative of a foreign party, it was difficult to inquire about such things, but now he is working with Qi Lianjun With these actions and the meaning in his words, a thought that he had never thought of before suddenly appeared in Zhang Qihang's mind: Could it be that Qi Lianjun has actually thought of Weichai's situation after he left?

If so, it's horrific.

Now that Qi Lianjun has already thought about what kind of situation Weichai will face after he leaves Weichai, but he still has to leave, then the question is, how deep and chaotic is the water behind it?

I dare not think about it, but just thinking about it makes people feel that this is not something that I can mix.

But now, Zhang Qihang has some ideas about the purpose of Qi Lianjun finding him: Is this because he hopes that he will help Weichai after he leaves?However, I am afraid that even Qi Lianjun could not have imagined that in just three years after he left, Weichai has changed from such a prosperous factory to a company on the verge of bankruptcy, right?

Thinking of this, Zhang Qihang smiled wryly and said, "President Qi, do you think I can afford to wade through the muddy water that you can't afford?"

Qi Lianjun waved his hand and said: "No, no, Mr. Zhang, I didn't mean to let you go through this muddy water. I just hope that after the luxury bus project between Huateng and Isuzu Motors is completed, you can abide by the contract we signed before, especially is the term of the payment cycle in the contract."

Terms of payment cycle?
Zhang Qihang was stunned again. He did not expect Qi Lianjun to bring several cars of New Year gifts to Huateng Industrial Group. What he asked for was only this. He only asked Huateng Industrial Group to pay Weichai Pay for the purchase of the engine.

Is it funny?
It's funny, isn't it supposed to pay on time as stipulated in the contract?
But is it really funny?

It's not funny at all.

In business, even if everything is normal on your side, it is normal for a partner to find a way to delay and delay the accounts payable. Even if it is not intentional to default on you, why should I pay you so happily on my side? ah?Shouldn't you be mean and expressive, so that you can look like I'm better?The kind of partner who actively gives the other party a lot of money within the time limit stipulated in the contract is really rare;
And once you find that your business is not doing well, it is not uncommon for the other party to find various reasons and excuses to procrastinate. It can even be said that all companies do this. The problem is that suppliers generally Don't dare to cut off the confession, if you dare to cut off the confession, it will be even more difficult to get the money in front of you.

And Qi Lianjun, who had already predicted what would happen to Weichai after he left, came to Zhang Qihang in advance in order to leave Weichai with hope. The old face seeks a glimmer of life for Weichai after he left.
