The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 405 It’s all in vain

On September 9, a technology transfer meeting between Alstom and Bincheng Locomotive Factory was held grandly in Beijing.

Not only Yan Jiecheng, but also the top leaders of the ministry, Lao Liu, attended the meeting, and Ren Guogang from Guangdong also came.

The deputy leader in charge of transportation infrastructure also attended the ceremony in person.

Of course, transportation, foreign affairs and other departments also came to join in the fun.

One of today's protagonists, Director Xiong of the Bincheng Motorcycle Factory, has always been nodding and bowing, without looking like a master at all.

Originally, this good thing was just pie in the sky for him.

After all, they are not responsible for all these things. In the end, they only need to sign.

Qiu Jinhui is full of energy today and looks extremely capable.

The leader who came from above patted him on the shoulder kindly.

Praise him as the Qiancheng of the country.

Qiu Jinhui, a fifty-year-old man, was as excited as a teenager.

Francois and Alex from Alstom seemed very happy.

Anyway, the ceremony hasn't started yet, and everyone looks happy.

What Yan Jiecheng didn't expect was to see the person in charge of Sifang Factory here.

The person in charge was named Yang Weidong. When he saw Yan Jiecheng, he immediately ran over.

When you see them, you cry and cry for injustice.

“Boss, we at Sifang Factory are feeling aggrieved.

You can't ignore us, we are all your soldiers, and you have to keep this bowl of water in check. "

Yang Weidong was really envious. Originally, Bincheng Motorcycle Factory was a fellow sufferer like himself, but he didn't expect that it would suddenly become prosperous.

On weekdays, although I don't see my brothers suffering. But this brother drives a Land Rover, why do I feel so unhappy?

Now that Bincheng Motorcycle Factory has the support of Alstom technology, the ministry will definitely increase technology investment.

But the small days of negotiating with my own factory are no longer bullshit.

Don’t you just want a lot of things? This is a run away!

This little devil is indeed not a good thing!

Yang Weidong felt aggrieved.

He felt that it was not that he was unlucky, but that Bincheng Factory was lucky enough to miss out.

Yan Jiecheng saw the old guy pulling on his sleeve, probably wiping his nose on it.

He quickly took a step back and said: "Old Yang, who do you think I have forgotten? How can I forget your Sifang Factory?

Now that Alstom's technology has arrived, how many people will you support Lao Xiong?

At that time, I will assign all the technical backbone of your factory to the Bincheng factory.

Let them follow the people from Bincheng Factory and learn from the French.

How much you can learn by then depends on you. Don't say that I'm partial again. "

After Yang Weidong heard Yan Jiecheng's words, he immediately smiled and said, "Leader, is this true?"

Yan Jiecheng smiled and nodded, and said, "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

"That can't be done!"

Yan Jiecheng saw the evil smile on his face and reminded him: "I think you should think about it. After sending people to Bincheng Factory, how will you recruit them back?

It’s not like you don’t know about Lao Xiong. "

Yang Weidong was also shocked when he heard this.

Yes, why did I forget about this old guy? This guy is not a good person.

If this person is gone, will he be able to come back when the time comes?

Yang Weidong turned around and thought about it, and quickly said to Yan Jiecheng: "Boss, you have to make the decision for me on this matter."

Yan Jiecheng shook his head and said, "That's your business, I won't get involved."

After saying that, Yan Jiecheng ignored Yang Weidong and walked to the venue.

Arriving in the lounge next to the main signing venue, Yan Jiecheng said hello to the leaders who came.

I chatted with everyone for a while.

Half an hour later, the comrade in charge of organizing the ceremony informed everyone that they could go to the main venue.

Yan Jiecheng smiled and greeted the leaders to go together.

When we arrived at the main venue, there was a row of chairs for the chairman, with seats for civilian staff on both sides.

There are rows of chairs below, all friends from the media from various countries.

Behind the chairman's seat are the national flags of the two countries.

When entering the venue, the Chinese team and Alstom arrived at the podium from the left and the right respectively.

Everyone greeted each other and shook hands before taking their seats.

The person who presided over the signing ceremony this time was the spokesperson of the ministry.

The main parties to this contract are Alstom and Bincheng Automobile Factory.

Of course, there is also an agreement on the funds for the Yangpeng Port Passenger Line, so the leaders of the ministry also signed it together.

Therefore, as the ceremony progressed, documents were passed between Francois, Director Xiong, and Lao Liu.

Yan Jiecheng lamented that these leaders were sitting on the podium, just to bear witness.

Ten minutes later, the three of them had signed all the words, which meant that all the contracts had come into effect.

Lao Liu, Director Xiong and Francois all stood up, and the three of them held their hands tightly together.

Yan Jiecheng and the others also stood up with the three of them, looking at them with smiles on their faces.

At this time, the flashlights in the audience kept pointing at the three people.

After about three minutes, the photo-taking by the media friends ended.

At this time, the entire signing ceremony reached the stage of answering questions from the media.

The reporters in the audience have been waiting impatiently for a long time.

Therefore, everyone raised their hands and prepared to ask questions.

The spokesperson of the ministry, as usual, directly addressed the daily reporter.

Said: "Okay, our first question will be asked by this friend."

The daily reporter was not surprised at all by this kind of treatment.

After all, in various domestic media meetings, he must be the first to be named.

This is his status as the big brother of domestic media.

The reporter from the daily newspaper is a woman in her thirties.

When she was called, she slowly stood up and said: "Dear leaders, I mainly want to ask Chief Engineer Yan Jiecheng to understand this question.

Regarding this cooperation, will it be conducive to promoting the development of high-speed railway technology in my country?

What efforts did your department make during the entire negotiation? "

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng glanced at several leaders, and then said with a smile: "Haha, I didn't expect this reporter friend to actually click on my general.

Then let me answer your question.

This cooperation is a technology transfer cooperation between Bincheng Locomotive Factory and Alstom.

Cooperation is beneficial to both parties.

For us, it is natural to hope that it will benefit the development of high-speed railway technology in our country.

What efforts did our ministry make during the negotiations you mentioned?

I want to tell you clearly that this is purely a commercial activity.

It is an economic behavior under the market economy during our reform.

Therefore, our ministry's efforts are to provide both parties with a platform for negotiation and a favorable environment.

That's it.

thank you all. "

As soon as Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, a man immediately raised his hand and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Francois about the cooperation between your company and the Chinese Bincheng Locomotive Factory.

We heard that there are a lot of very demanding requirements.

Do you think this is a form of hegemony? "

After hearing this, everyone suddenly looked ugly. This person was specifically looking for trouble.

Yan Jiecheng also glanced at the reporter with interest. He had a premonition of this kind of thing.

When I saw the Asahi Shimbun sign hanging on it, I knew it.

After Francois heard what the translator said, he was as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly. I am a senior executive of the company, and this kind of thing is none of my business.

Francois said: “First of all, I want to make it clear that this cooperation is an initiative of Alstom to seek cooperation and common development with China.

Second, as His Excellency Yan Jiecheng just said, this is the most basic business activity.

Third, as far as I know, relevant high-speed rolling stock companies in your country have also conducted relevant negotiations with Sifang Factory.

So, is your country also being bullied? "

After Francois finished speaking, he said in Chinese: "There is an old saying in China that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is.

I think this sentence is very suitable for this journalist friend. " Yan Jiecheng was very satisfied after hearing Francois's answer, and the smile on his face almost sounded like a pig's squeal.

He really didn't expect that Francois knew this sentence.

After hearing Francois's answer, the Asahi Shimbun reporter sat down with a constipated look on his face and stopped talking.

Next, reporters from Agence France-Presse, Le Monde and other media also asked questions. Although some of the questions were difficult, there was no targeted misleading after all.

Just like AFP asked Francois, he said that mainstream countries in the world are currently actively researching high-speed railway technology.

And if Alstom chooses to transfer all its technology to China at this time, is it not afraid of giving them France and Alstom a strong competitor?

When Francois heard this question, the complexity in his eyes flashed.

Then he said: "This journalist friend, are your worries groundless?

First, I believe that the friendship between Alstom and China is inseparable.

Second, I think you should also believe in us, Alstom.

Our Alstom company is an enterprise dedicated to the research and development, manufacturing and production of high-tech products.

We have the confidence and strength to make better products. "

Yan Jiecheng listened and pretended not to hear.

Westerners' arrogance doesn't matter.

Let’s hide our capabilities and bide our time for ten years, and we’ll see you all again then.

The bright sword at that time.

That's when he really punched the old master to death.

Not to mention Alstom, it is the Shinkansen in my childhood, and Yan Jiecheng is confident that he can completely surpass it.

After the signing ceremony, a cocktail reception was held in the afternoon.

At the cocktail party, Director Xiong was surrounded by other domestic motorcycle factory directors.

This is not done to compliment him.

Instead, they gathered a crowd to attack him.

"Old Xiong, you are really careless. You accomplished such a big thing quietly. Are we still brothers in the future?"

"Return to the brotherhood? Factory Manager Xiong is now a chicken flying up the sycamore tree, he has become a phoenix long ago.

How is it possible to still be brothers with people like us? "

"Brother Xiong, do you still remember when we were playing Eagle Sauce on the peninsula?

Back then, if I hadn't pulled you out from under the train.

You said you, haven't you even been able to find Zhazha a long time ago?

Look at me, I am already over 60 years old.

I haven't asked you for anything in these years.

Is it too much to ask you to do me a favor today? "

"You people, why do you say that?

Who is the old bear? He is the most generous among us.

With the benefits, how could we all be forgotten? "

"Go, go, are you the only one who knows how to flatter me?

Do you think that because you are so flattering, Lao Xiong can give this benefit to your Pukou factory? "

Director Xiong looked at the people surrounding him, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The people who can surround him and output unscrupulously are all his old friends.

These people are all like him, willing to give up any face for a little benefit.

Let’s just say that his old squad leader had saved his life back then.

Just because of this incident, so many good things have been poached from their factory over the years.

Director Xiong wiped his sweat, and then said: "As for the brothers, I am the best.

Do you think I can take charge of this matter? "

When everyone heard what Director Xiong said, they also reacted.

They glanced at him with contempt, then turned around and walked in the direction of Yan Jiecheng.

"You big bear, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf now that you have no porcelain work? Isn't this a waste of everyone's time?"

Factory Director Xiong could still hear someone scolding him, and his face darkened.

Yan Jiecheng was clinking wine glasses with Francois when he said this, chatting about Alstom electrical equipment.

Yan Jiecheng felt that Alstom, a company that looked white and fat, could hear its bleating sound from afar.

Therefore, he must have a good relationship.

The two people were talking when Yan Jiecheng's eyes suddenly glanced at a group of motorcycle factory directors. He slowly walked not far from him and stopped, looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Yan Jiecheng was very clear about the intentions of this group of people.

It's just that this is too impatient.

Is it possible to talk about this kind of thing in today’s situation?

Afterwards, Yan Jiecheng chatted enthusiastically with other people from Alstom for a while.

Then he followed the leaders and left the reception together.

After all, they are here, regardless of whether they are the two parties signing the contract. Those reporters were still a little awkward.

The most important thing is that everyone is busy. When attending a cocktail party, the time is strictly calculated. The next itinerary is fully scheduled and there is no room for delay.

Yan Jiecheng left the reception and took a car directly to the Academy of Railway Sciences.

Upon arriving at the Academy of Railway Sciences, Yan Jiecheng immediately summoned the leaders of the Academy of Physical Sciences and held an on-site meeting in the dean's office.

Several vice presidents and principals in the hospital all knew that today was the day to sign the contract.

Yan Jiecheng probably had an idea in mind when he called them to a meeting.

That's the contract. The core content. It's technology transfer.

Therefore, this requires them to organize a strong technology acceptance team.

Only in this way can various information documents be accurately translated and technology can be transformed and absorbed.

Otherwise, this so-called technology transfer is just empty talk.

Half an hour later, all the leaders arrived at the meeting.

The clerks and secretaries were also nervously preparing various recording tools.

When Yan Jiecheng arrived, he saw that everyone was ready.

Then he smiled and said: "Lao Jin, you must have been waiting for a while."

Lao Jin, the second-in-command of the Iron Science Academy, also smiled and said: "Everyone knows that today's signing has ended, and I feel happy, so I have been waiting here for the good news from you, the dean."

After hearing what Lao Jin said, Yan Jiecheng turned to look at the other leaders and saw that everyone was in a good mood.

He smiled and said: "Everyone, I just came back from the celebration banquet at the signing site.

This contract is signed, which is quite literally putting the meat in our mouths.

But whether we can continue to eat this piece of fat still requires the efforts of all of us. "

Lao Jin said with a smile: "We have been hungry for so long. We usually eat wild vegetables and chaff, but now that we have fat meat, we will feed him whatever he wants."

Yan Jiecheng saw that everyone was very popular, so he smiled and said: "Okay, we must maintain this shameful spirit."

After chatting for a while, a group of people began to discuss the formation of a technology transfer receiving team.

After everyone discussed for three hours, we finally settled on a few principles.

First of all, this is the receiving team. The scientific researchers of the Academy of Railway Sciences are responsible for receiving design ideas and design drawings.

The following locomotive factories will select key engineers, and then invite experts from metallurgy, machinery and other related departments to form a team to receive the equipment manufacturing process.

Then for the final maintenance and assembly, workers with reliable ideas, strong skills, and high cultural level must be selected from all over the country to learn on the job.

Of course, it is impossible for these people to return to their original units after they return from study.

If this is the case, then we are afraid of talking about technology absorption and digestion.

Yan Jiecheng has already personally reported to his superiors that all these people will be transferred to Bincheng Locomotive Factory and form a new Bincheng Locomotive Factory together with the original Bincheng Locomotive Factory.

Factory Manager Xiong, whom everyone envied, didn’t know that he, the factory manager, was about to retire.

Factory Director Xiong is already sixty-one years old, and he has reached his age.

Besides, according to his ability, he couldn't bear the burden of the newly established Bincheng Motorcycle Factory.

So, after a lifetime of dedication, it’s time to take a good rest.

However, although Yan Jiecheng and the department leader Lao Liu have reached an agreement on this matter.

But there was still someone he needed to talk to himself.

This person is Director Xiong himself.

Otherwise, the old comrades may not be able to figure out this great joy and sorrow, and may get confused.

You have been working hard for this all your life, and suddenly one day, someone tells you that your ability cannot keep up and you will be eliminated.

No one can figure it out.

Besides, at this juncture, Director Xiong must have been complacent, and finally found that his efforts were in vain.

Yan Jiecheng needs to have a frank and honest chat with Lao Xiong.

Of course, Yan Jiecheng also made some other arrangements for him in order to take care of the old comrade's inner feelings.
