Rekindle 2003

Chapter 952 My little ancestor! How can you say such a thing!

'Mr. Ma, am I right?'
Seeing that Qingyun had fully understood their actions, Ma Baocai had no choice but to give in.

With a wry smile, he softened his attitude, cupped his hands, and spoke sincerely, "Please, Mr. Xiaoqing, please show some mercy."

He sighed helplessly, "Boss Xiaoqing, to be honest, the micro hard disk project is indeed a good project. If we were a little richer, we in Guizhou Province could complete the early commercialization of this project on our own.

We will consider financing after we get the patent authorization, which will not cause trouble to the country.

But there is no way, my dear Mr. Qing, Guizhou Province is too poor!

I admit that Guizhou Province was indeed devising a treacherous plan in its consideration of the micro hard disk project, in an attempt to tie the country into it.

But I still say that, Mr. Xiaoqing, please believe that the people of Guizhou Province have only a public interest in this project, and we also want to be prosperous for the 3837 million folks. "

Qing Yun was silent for a while after hearing this.

In fact, this project in Guizhou Province is a microcosm of the uncoordinated local and regional economic development after the reform and opening up.

The most typical ones are breweries and television factories.

At one time each province had its own factories of various kinds, but then local protection barriers were formed.

This is a common occurrence 20 years later, even if it is just a small cup of milk tea.

Many things, from a global perspective, are wrong.

But back to the local...

The right to development is the most basic right that should be respected the most.

Qing Yun shook his head and passed a cigarette to him. "It is precisely because Guizhou Province is too poor that those two traders chose you."

Ma Baocai lit a cigarette and took two puffs. He knew that what Qing Yun said was true.

The financial situation in Guizhou Province is indeed tight, and the funding needs of the micro hard disk project are so huge that without the support of national matching funds and bank loans, the project cannot continue at all.

But when it comes to Zhu Baolin and his group being profiteers... Ma Baocai is still a little unhappy.

In his opinion, it is undeniable that Zhu Baolin's background is indeed a bit mottled.

Zhu Baolin was born on the island in 54 and graduated from Fu Jen Catholic University. He worked as a salesperson for Taiwan Mass Computer and MiTAC Computer 80 years ago. He came to Pearl Harbor in 84 and entered the Laoxiong area after 89. He has been engaged in computer trade in Europe and America. He is a citizen of Seychelles.

But Zhu Baolin is domineering, eloquent, quick-witted and has great personal charm, which is what they value most.

After all, to put it bluntly, Guizhou Province invested in Su Zongxiang's micro hard disk technology, but scientific researchers generally do not have the ability to manage an enterprise, and Zhu Baolin can make up for this.

"Boss Xiaoqing, I know that Mr. Zhu is not in your eyes, but..."

Ma Baocai stopped talking abruptly. At this moment, Qing Yun directly pushed the folder he was reading before coming in to him and said lightly, "Director Ma, why don't you take a look at this document first."

Ma Baocai opened the folder with a puzzled look on his face. He only glanced at the key points highlighted by Qing Yun in red pen, and his face changed drastically. He was dumbfounded, "This..."

He began to read the documents carefully.

The documents show that Zhu Baolin and Ji Keliang established a company called Weixing in Pearl Harbor at the end of 2002 with a registered capital of only HK$2, which was obviously a shell company.

In March this year, it increased to 3 Hong Kong dollars. Ma Baocai recalled that time was exactly when China Southern Exchange Shihua was just established.

In June this year, Weixing Company increased its capital again to HK$6 million, which was also the time when the 100-inch micro hard disk was successfully tested.

Immediately afterwards, the shares of Zhu Baolin and others were acquired by a MAXI company in the British Virgin Islands, and after identification, the holders of this MAXI company were Zhu Baolin and Ji Keliang.

If the timing of the equity change was just a coincidence, then the business scope of Weixing Company undoubtedly exposed their intentions.

Looking at the information in the file retrieved from the Pearl Port Company Registry, Weixing Company's business scope is the procurement and sales of electronic components and parts.

Ma Baocai looked at Qing Yun in shock. Although he was the person in charge of science and technology, precisely because he was in the science and technology department, he had to pay attention to the development of technology companies all day long. He understood the problems better than many other people in charge.

He didn't even need to prove anything. Zhu Baolin must want to control the raw material procurement and product sales of micro hard drives through this Weixing company.

This practice is not without precedent in the industry, but it usually involves small, unregulated companies.

Ma Baocai was shocked by the audacity of Zhu Baolin for openly using such tactics in a high-profile high-tech project.

Ma Baocai's hands trembled slightly as he held the folder, and a deep anger and powerlessness surged in his heart. The investment platform in Guizhou Province was a consortium of several companies, which were not engaged in the electronics industry and had neither experience nor interest in participating in daily operations.

In order to show their support for Zhu Baolin, under the coordination of the leadership, each shareholder authorized Zhu Baolin to have full control over the company's funds, management rights and personnel rights in the form agreed upon in the company's articles of association.

This is a kind of trust.

Because no one in Guizhou Province understands this stuff.

At the beginning of the negotiations, Zhu Baolin said that he did not want "outsiders to command insiders".

In view of this situation, the leaders made special arrangements to implement the project.

But now it seems, what else can I say...

Allowing Zhu Baoqi to hold all the power will definitely lead to fraud in the operation of subsequent projects.

"Director Ma," Qing Yun's voice sounded in his ears again, "Now you understand, don't you? This project was a carefully designed scheme from the very beginning.

Zhu Baolin and his team have never really wanted to promote the economic development of Guizhou Province, but to use this project to seek personal gain. "

Ma Baocai spread his ten fingers and inserted them into his hair, looking depressed.

He originally thought that the micro hard disk project introduced by Zhu Baolin had flaws in intellectual property rights that could lead to subsequent disputes.

Now it seems that this is purely a trap.

The micro hard drive technology is real, but hidden behind it is the ambition of Zhu Baolin and Ji Keliang to embezzle the results of the business.

Emperor Yun said calmly, "They provide technology and operations to get excess returns, and you provide funds and policies to get more jobs and the development of the industrial economy. In fact, this business logic is reasonable.

It’s just that first, they are too greedy, and second, this is a violation of state-owned asset rules.”

In fact, to be frank, if this is a collaboration between two private enterprises, it is an ideal business cooperation model, in which each party plays to its own strengths and jointly pushes the project forward.

The technical party provides core innovative results and operational management capabilities, and is responsible for transforming ideas into actual products and services; while the funding party provides the necessary financial support and network convenience to ensure that the project can take root in a favorable environment.

There is nothing wrong with this model itself. It embodies the principles of optimal resource allocation and complementary advantages, and is a common win-win strategy in modern business cooperation.

However, reality is often more complicated than ideal.

In this cooperation model, if the technical party's greed exceeds a reasonable range and begins to covet the part of the cake that does not belong to it, and even does not hesitate to cross the red line of morality and law, then the nature of the entire project will change.

Furthermore, when such behavior occurs in projects involving state-owned capital, the issue becomes even more sensitive.

The operation of state-owned assets projects must not only pursue economic benefits, but also comply with relevant national laws and regulations to ensure the preservation and appreciation of state-owned assets and prevent the loss of state-owned assets.

Once the state-owned assets rules are violated, it will not only harm the interests of the country and the public, but may also trigger a series of legal and moral accountability.

The atmosphere in the reception room seemed to become more solemn because of Qing Yun's words.

Ma Baocai was silent for a long time, then he raised his head, looked at Qingyun with a complicated expression, and slowly spoke,

"So, Mr. Xiaoqing, this is why you want to take over?"

Qing Yun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then burst into laughter.

After laughing, he looked at Ma Baocai, whose face was ashen, with an absurd expression, and sneered, "Director Ma, I'm really curious, with your brain, how did you get to this position?"

Ma Baocai's face turned pale when he heard this, and he glared at Qing Yun, "I rely on my ability! I rely on the fact that I do things uprightly!"

Qing Yun's words made his anger burn fiercely in his chest. He knew his innocence and ability, and he firmly believed that he had come this far based on his real talent and integrity.

However, Qing Yun's unstoppable laughter only made his anger more intense, and he retorted, "Qing Yun, what are you laughing at? Isn't this what you hinted at me this afternoon?
I've also heard the saying 'business is business'. You're going through all this trouble just to incorporate the micro hard drive project into the territory of your Yanhuang Group!

The biggest difference between you and Zhu Baolin is that Zhu Baolin has no money so he has to cheat, but you are relying on your wealth to rob!"

Ma Baocai was very clear about the hidden meaning behind Qing Yun’s words in the conference room at noon.

Those words "very" sounded sincere and heartfelt at the time, but in fact they contained a hidden mystery.
