Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

After Uncle Lin set the tone, things really went very smoothly.

The next morning Cao Zhiqiang went back, he was called by Director Li to the director's office.

As a result, Cao Zhiqiang went to the factory director's office and found two strange men in tunic suits inside.

After the two parties asked, they found out that one of them was the Secretary-General and Director of the General Office of the Beijing Municipal Government, and the other was a director of the General Office of the Ministry of Metallurgy.

Just listening to their positions, one can tell that these two middle-aged men in Chinese tunic suits have a lot of background, which is indeed the case.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries and sat down again, and then they talked about the topic.

Sure enough, Director Wang from the municipal government and Director Li from the Ministry of Metallurgy both came to Cao Zhiqiang to discuss the rectification plan of Hongguang Machinery Factory.

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhiqiang was determined, so he quickly said what he had said to Uncle Lin.

However, compared to Uncle Lin's high-level plan, these two cadres listened more seriously to Cao Zhiqiang's rectification plan, and asked more detailed and tricky questions.

This is not because they deliberately made things difficult, but to check for omissions.

Because the other party asked a lot of questions, including many details, even Cao Zhiqiang didn't think about it.

For example, the emotional comfort of the workers, the resettlement of the workers' residence after the demolition of the original factory dormitory, and the payment of wages and subsidies during the re-employment period are all problems.

Of course, these are minor issues.

The real big question is whether Cao Zhiqiang can really attract investment and find a new place to work.

Chain fast food restaurants and chain convenience kiosks are also okay, because the city government guarantees full support for these projects.

But the municipal government has no money, so it can only provide land and policies, and then ensure that electricity, water, and telephone are connected, so as to achieve three links.

However, Cao Zhiqiang has to figure out the specific project investment funds.

In other words, it's okay to ask for policies, but not for money.

And even if it is a three-way link, Cao Zhiqiang has to pay for it himself. At most, he needs a cost fee, which is guaranteed to be cheaper than the market price, and he can do the project first and then pay.

In this regard, Cao Zhiqiang assured that there is no problem with money, and he can spend 300 million RMB in advance, which is enough to start these two projects.

Hearing this, Director Wang of the municipal government felt a lot easier.

After all, as long as you have money, everything is easy to manage.

But the next questions are really big questions.

For example, the problem of the transportation company and the construction company of large employers are big problems.

The establishment of the company itself is not a big problem. If the Hongguang Factory itself can be preserved, no matter whether it is a transportation company or a construction company, it can be regarded as a subsidiary of the Hongguang Machinery Factory. It does not need the approval of the city government, but only the approval of the Ministry of Metallurgy. , After all, it belongs to the industrial system.

Director Li of the Ministry of Metallurgy expressed his full support for this, but he still said, if we want to engage in these projects, the Ministry of Metallurgy can only provide policies, but has no money or equipment.

Regardless of whether it is a transportation company or a construction company, at present, it is not something you can have if you want to have it. These are all high-investment projects.

For example, a transportation company, if you want to run transportation, you must at least have trucks and trucks and other transportation vehicles, and trucks and trucks are in short supply now, even if the Ministry of Metallurgy can give you an official approval for buying a car, allowing you to buy it in a legitimate way, but Two more problems arise.

One question is where the money for the car comes from, and the other question is where the car is bought.

It’s easy to talk about the car purchase price, Cao Zhiqiang can solve it by himself, it’s nothing more than spending money.

But it is difficult to buy a car, the car manufacturer needed to buy a car.

Because the current domestic automobile production, no matter whether it is a car or a truck, is in short supply. They are all running at full capacity, and they are all planned for production.

If Cao Zhiqiang proposed to buy a car at the beginning or middle of this year, that's all. The Ministry of Metallurgy can ask the manufacturer to allocate a part of the car purchase quota.

But now it’s almost November, and the indicators of all domestic auto manufacturers are fully booked, and it is impossible to make any extra balance, unless some units don’t want cars.

But this is impossible, because even if some units cannot afford a car due to financial constraints, they can resell it to others. After all, the car purchase index itself is hard currency.

Of course, if it is some township enterprises in the south, it is okay to say that they can buy wire looms.

The problem is that the transportation company that Cao Zhiqiang wants to set up is a subsidiary of Hongguang Machinery Factory, and Hongguang Machinery Factory is a unit directly under the Ministry of Metallurgy, or a unit in Beijing.

It is impossible to buy a wire walking machine for such a unit, it will only cause trouble.

Isn't it okay to buy imported cars at a normal price increase?

Not at all.

Because if you buy imported cars from regular channels, you need to go through a lot of procedures.

It is easy to talk about foreign trade and economics, but the key is foreign exchange application.

Now the country is very strict on foreign exchange management, and foreign exchange is needed everywhere. If you want to buy additional imported trucks, the person in charge of foreign exchange will definitely be the owner.

In the same situation as transportation companies, there are also construction companies.

Construction companies don't just have ordinary construction workers, they also need professional construction engineers and professional construction equipment.

The engineer is easy to say, it can be transferred from other units.

But engineering equipment is not easy to get.

You like excavators, bulldozers, cranes, trucks, piling machines, drilling machines, concrete mixers, etc. These equipment are not easy to buy, and they are not easy to buy in China.

Compared with these, raw materials such as cement steel bars and asphalt are easier to solve, because the Ministry of Metallurgy can issue approval documents and transfer from relevant units, but they also have to spend money to buy them.

The reason is very simple, that is, units such as cement and steel bars are currently implementing a dual-track system.

The Ministry of Metallurgy has nothing to do with the part planned to be produced, but the Ministry of Metallurgy can give you an approval document for the unplanned part, and you can buy it yourself with the approval document, provided that you pay for the purchase by yourself.

Anyway, there is only one word missing - money!

And this is not small money, it is big money, and it cannot be solved by a few million RMB.

Let's not talk about the budget of the construction company, let's talk about the transportation company.

If you want to run a transportation company with 1000 people, you need 250 trucks on the basis of four people per truck.

Based on an average of 2 yuan for a truck, 500 million RMB is needed. This budget has exceeded all the assets that Cao Zhiqiang currently owns on the surface.

And this is still a domestic car. If it is an imported car, the price will at least double.

Of course, this refers to imported cars bought through normal channels. If it is an imported car with wire mesh, it will be cheaper because there is no need to pay taxes, but even if it is a wire mesh car, the budget required will not be less than 500 million RMB.

This is just the purchase price of the car, and other things such as warehouses and office buildings needed by the transportation company are not counted.

Of course, if the Hongguang Machinery Factory is retained, the transportation company can continue to use the original land and warehouse of the Hongguang Machinery Factory, but the office building will also have to be rebuilt.

Generally speaking, if you want to open a transportation company that can provide employment for 1000 people, let’s not talk about the wages of the employees, but the equipment investment in the early stage, you need a minimum of 500 million RMB. If you add other expenses, it will be 1000 million less. Only RMB will do.

As for the construction company, more people are needed and the equipment is more expensive. According to the approximate budget given by the two leaders, there is no 3000 million yuan, so it cannot be done at all.

On the contrary, it is easy to solve the problem of operating projects and markets.

The Hongguang Factory is a department directly under the Ministry of Metallurgy. As long as the Ministry of Metallurgy is willing to give approval, the transportation company will not be afraid of being eaten by ghosts and snakes along the road, and when necessary, it can be reasonably and legally armed.

Yes, the Ministry of Metallurgy in this period is so awesome that it can really engage in internal armed escorts.

As for later, the tasks of these armed escorts were all handed over to professionals, but that was after the 90s.

The Ministry of Metallurgy in the early 80s was a department with real power because it involved many core confidential departments, and a note was really useful.

Construction companies are fine too.

Although the Ministry of Metallurgy doesn't care much about urban construction, the city government in Beijing is currently preparing for major urban construction. It already needs a lot of construction companies, and there is a shortage of manpower and equipment. It is even planning to transfer construction companies from other places to Beijing.

Therefore, if Cao Zhiqiang can really get enough construction equipment and construction machinery for [-] construction workers, other materials, whether it is raw materials or engineering projects, are guaranteed to be sufficient, and he is guaranteed not to default on the payment.

In other words, there is plenty of work, and the raw materials are okay, the only thing that is missing is the equipment.

Of course, compared to these issues, the two leaders were most concerned about the magnetic tape joint venture factory.

The representatives sent by Japan, that is, representatives from Taiyo Yuden and Dadong Investment Company, have come to Beijing. The two leaders are clear about the general situation of this joint venture project.

When they heard that Japan provided equipment, technology and capital, we only need to provide land and factory buildings, and then the management right is still on our side. The products can not only be sold domestically, but can even be sold back to Japan. The two leaders were very happy and thought that this Business can be done.

Originally, whether Director Li of the Ministry of Metallurgy or Director Wang of the municipal government wanted to take this project into their own hands, let Cao Zhiqiang personally share more shares in it and earn more benefits.

But when he heard that Cao Zhiqiang insisted on giving this project to Hongguang Machinery Factory, he gave up.

The final discussion was that the joint venture tape factory project, that is, the Dongyang Tape Factory project, was handed over to Hongguang Machinery Factory, which was regarded as a branch invested by Hongguang Machinery Factory.

As for the approximate shareholding ratio, 40.00% of Dadong Investment Company, and 30.00% of Taiyo Yuden’s shares, these cannot be moved or discussed.

What can be discussed is the 20.00% equity that originally belonged to Huaxia Audio and Video Company, as well as the company's management and control rights.

Since this project was negotiated by Cao Zhiqiang personally, he must be given some benefits.

So the final result of the negotiation was that the 20.00% five shares that originally belonged to Huaxia Audio-Visual Company were divided into two shares.

One part was handed over to Hongguang Machinery Factory, which provided land, factory buildings and manpower, accounting for 15.00% of the shares.

Cao Zhiqiang personally contributed 100 million RMB, holding [-]% of the shares in private form.

Then there is the name of Dongyang Company. Several leaders don't like it because it has a homonym of Dongyang.

The word "Oriental" does not sound good in China at present, and it has the taste of "Oriental devils".

Although this is indeed a Sino-Japanese joint venture company, it is still annoying to be named Dongyang.

In the end, Director Li proposed to simply call it "Chaoyang Electronics Co., Ltd."

Upon hearing the name, except for Cao Zhiqiang who complained in secret, everyone else agreed that it was full of vigor.

Cao Zhiqiang saw that everyone agreed, and he also quoted various scriptures, so he didn't care, and didn't come out to complain.

After all, it's just a name, so there's no need to spoil everyone's interest.

It's rare to have something that allows these leaders to have the final say, so let them.

Anyway, the real final say on this project is Dadong Investment Company.

After all, if this company wants to invest real money, it should give the country urgently needed foreign exchange, and Taiyo Yuden, the technology company, is also willing to cooperate because Dadong Investment Company is willing to give money and bear the main risk.

Therefore, the core party of the entire joint venture project is Dadong Investment Company.

And the real boss behind Dadong Investment Company is Cao Zhiqiang, so as long as he thinks there is no problem, there is no problem.

However, since Dadong Investment Company was mentioned, Cao Zhiqiang simply suggested that since Dadong Investment Company intends to invest in our country, it is better for us to form a joint venture between the transportation company and the construction company under Hongguang Machinery Factory, and then let Dadong Just invest in the company.

Once the transportation company and the construction company get the investment from Dadong Company, not only will the capital problem be solved, but the equipment problem will also be solved. More importantly, this is foreign investment, and all the money given is foreign exchange!
As long as the company is owned by the country, and the control and management rights are in my hands, it is no problem for foreign companies to make some money.

For example, Jianguo Hotel is also a joint venture company. Didn't they easily take back all the foreign shares at the price of one dollar?
Therefore, for domestic enterprises, what is lacking is Dao Le, as much as they want, and they are not afraid of giving more shares to less.

It doesn't matter even if foreign capital occupies more shares, as long as the company is still in the country, there are plenty of ways to concoct you.

Of course, our country is not as shameless as the Indians. After attracting foreign capital, it will allow foreign capital to make money, and will repay the money truthfully. It is impossible to renege on the debt.

What's more, transportation companies or construction companies are not considered sensitive industries, but they are all industries that urgently need heavy capital investment.

Especially for construction companies, if they can get a batch of advanced construction equipment imported from Japan and form a new construction company locally in the capital, it will definitely be a great joy.

For local construction companies in the capital, it is much more convenient for the administrative department in the capital to manage, unlike construction companies from other places, which need all kinds of wrangling.

Of course, the Ministry of Metallurgy is also very happy, because the Hongguang Machinery Factory was originally a subordinate unit. If it can really take this opportunity to be reborn from the ashes, it will really shake up.

But the premise is that the Japanese Dadong Investment Company is willing to invest money, and it is not a small amount of money.

Cao Zhiqiang reassured several leaders, saying that since Dadong Investment Company is willing to spend a lot of money to invest in us and set up a joint venture tape factory, there may be a deeper meaning behind this, and there is a high probability that he is not a company, but has other big bosses in it. Behind, is a test of the waters.

If we can express our sincerity, I believe that Dadong Investment Company is willing to invest.

In particular, if we can disclose a little bit of less important information, such as revealing that the Beijing Municipal Government is planning to carry out large-scale urban construction and that there are a large number of construction projects such as demolition and renovation, I believe Dadong Investment will be tempted.

Because others don't know, but the Japanese personnel must know that when a city is expanding, it is the most profitable time.

As long as the Japanese know that once they invest in construction companies, they can get dividends from our urban construction, and they will be happy.

The same is true for transportation companies. After all, the city needs to be rebuilt, and the consumption of various construction materials must be huge, and all kinds of construction waste are also huge. Regardless of whether it is pulling construction materials or construction waste, transportation tools are needed, so transportation companies can also eat To Dajian's bonus.

Coupled with my country's vast geography, once the large-scale transport fleet of state-owned enterprises runs long-distance transport, the profits they can obtain are also considerable.

As long as we present the facts and reason in good faith, I believe the Japanese side will be interested. (end of this chapter)
