Reborn in the red age

"Little bastard, little bastard, that little bastard is definitely targeting Lian Xiang. What on earth could he possibly want? Lian Xiang wants to do business honestly and has never offended anyone. Why would he want to pick on me?"

Liu Aiguo was born in Shanghai on the eve of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. He lived in Shanghai during his early childhood. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he followed his father, who was a well-known figure in the financial sector of Shanghai at the time, to the capital and began his life as a cadre's child.

Looking at the headline in today's "Computer Daily", Liu Aiguo in the office was so angry that he broke down and even spoke the Magic City dialect he learned in his childhood.

Wang Zhenpeng, a loyal subordinate, looked at the angry Liu Aiguo and listened to a series of dialect words that he couldn't understand but were obviously swear words. He was so scared that he trembled.

Seeing Liu Aiguo was about to smash something, Wang Zhenpeng's heart tightened, and he quickly stepped forward to stop him and comfort him: "Boss Liu, calm down first, don't get yourself hurt by anger. There may be some misunderstanding about this matter, let's calm down and analyze it first."

"What the hell is this? Is there any need to analyze this?"

"It's useless to get angry now."

Liu Aiguo realized that he was in a bad mood, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down, but the anger in his eyes was still there. He slammed the newspaper in his hand on the table and continued to rage.

"Look at this title. Isn't it targeting Lianxiang? All domestic brands of computers are substandard, but did the newspaper mention other brands? Only Lianxiang's name is mentioned in the newspaper."

"Fuck, this little bastard is bullying us because we don't even have a backer!"

As he spoke, Liu Aiguo grabbed the phone on the table, dialed a few numbers, and was about to make a call.

Seeing this, Wang Zhenpeng hurriedly asked, "Boss Liu, who are you calling?"

Liu Aiguo glared at him and said unhappily, "Who else could it be? I'm going to find the newspaper leaders and ask them what they want to do. We have made so many contributions to this industry, how can they write nonsense like this?"

"If the newspaper doesn't give us an explanation, I will file a complaint again. I don't believe there is no place for reason in this city."

Liu Aiguo was so angry that he lost his mind, but Wang Zhenpeng did not.

Without waiting for the call to be connected, Wang Zhenpeng hurried forward and hung up the phone.

Facing Liu Aiguo's dissatisfied eyes, Wang Zhenpeng reminded him: "Boss Liu, I think we should not be impulsive. Calling them directly to accuse them may make things worse. We might as well understand the situation first and see how this report came about and whether there are any other reasons behind it."

After being reminded by Wang Zhenpeng, Liu Aiguo calmed down a little.

After thinking for a moment, he said in some doubt: "Do you mean that someone is trying to frame us behind our back?"

"That's what I doubt. Even if reporters report it, they should report all the companies that participated that day. There's no reason why only our name should be in the newspaper."

Putting down the phone, Liu Aiguo sat in the chair with a frown, various possible opponents flashing through his mind.

"The Great Wall? There's no reason. I don't have much in common with him."

"Fang Zheng? That's not right. Even though they snatched the telecom order from Fang Zheng, we are all state-owned enterprises, working for the country. There's no need to do such a thing."

"."

After eliminating all the competitors one by one, Liu Aiguo felt that those brands had no reason to do so.

Liu Aiguo, who couldn't come up with a conclusion, looked up at Wang Zhenpeng and asked hesitantly, "Do you think it could be those foreign brands? They have been eyeing our domestic market. Could they be behind this?"

"."

What the hell is foreign capital? Brother, you think too highly of us. The domestic low-end computer market is basically occupied by domestic brands.

In addition to complete machines from domestic brands, there are also many private assembly stores.

Given the extreme price involution of domestic enterprises, foreign capital has no chance to come in at all.

They take a professional approach, mainly selling computers to customer groups and organizations that have higher requirements for computer performance and stability. Even if they have to target anyone, it would be to powerful leading companies like Great Wall.

Even with a scale like the current one, foreign investors don't even take it seriously.

Wang Zhenpeng already had a guess as to who the mastermind behind the incident was, but he didn't dare to mention the name.

Because the mastermind behind this is a giant crocodile, a real deep-sea giant crocodile.

In other words, Lianxiang is a state-owned enterprise, and the Academy of Sciences is behind it. If it were a private enterprise, if they really wanted to target Lianxiang, they wouldn't even have to take action, they could just stomp their feet and kill Lianxiang.

If the conflict really comes to light, the Academy of Sciences will definitely choose to replace himself and Liu Aiguo rather than offend that big crocodile.

In the face of Liu Aiguo's question, he could only agree dryly: "It's not impossible. After all, imperialism has never given up its desire to destroy us."

Liu Aiguo nodded, then shook his head: "But how can they manipulate domestic newspapers? Did they bribe the reporters?"

"No, even if a reporter wants to report it, the reviewer won't approve it if he doesn't get instructions."

Wang Zhenpeng just watched Liu Aiguo talking to himself, without any intention of reminding him.

Just when Liu Aiguo was racking his brains to think about who was behind the scenes, the real mastermind was at the exit of the Capital Airport, waiting for the people on the international flight that had just landed to get off.

"Oh, oh, I am such an old man that I am so honored to be greeted in person by a figure like you," Secretary Qian, who had just returned from a study tour abroad, teased as he looked at Li Qingfeng who came to greet him.

Li Qingfeng stretched out his right hand and shook hands with the other party, then said with a smile: "Look at what you said. I am just a deputy section chief, and there is a huge gap between me and you in terms of rank. It is only natural for me to come and greet such a great leader as you."

"That's right. If it was at work, with your level, you wouldn't even be qualified to see me, let alone shake my hand."

"Hey, this is a serious bureaucratic style."

"Don't put labels on me. You, the biggest capitalist in the country, can't put labels on me. Haha."

After Secretary Qian laughed heartily, he stopped joking and started chatting normally: "This time I went abroad for inspection, but I gained a lot. How are you doing recently? Is your work going well? I heard that you have something to talk to me about?"

"My work is going smoothly, but I've encountered some minor problems recently. I need Secretary Qian's help to coordinate some things."

"Oh? What kind of trouble? You actually want me to coordinate it?"

Li Qingfeng looked around. The airport was crowded with people and it was not a good place to talk.

He held Secretary Qian's hand and said, "Don't stand here any longer. Let's go to my car and talk."

I got into the Audi 100 that I had specially bought to pick someone up today, and followed the convoy towards the city.

In the car, Secretary Qian did not let Li Qingfeng speak directly, but asked about the Fei Chi car.

"How's your Feichi car? Why is there no movement? The boss has high expectations for your Feichi car factory, you can't let the boss down."

"It's almost there, the model has been designed, and you will be able to hear the latest news about Mercedes-Benz before the Spring Festival." "Really?"

After listening to this, Secretary Qian was very happy. After all, he had contributed to the establishment of the Mercedes-Benz Automobile Factory.

I quickly asked for details: "How is the car? Is the engine made in China? How is the quality? Can it compare with Audi?"

"Forehead"

Li Qingfeng organized his words and said slowly: "From the perspective of appearance and size, the cars produced by our Feichi Automobile Factory are much more impressive than Audi, and are not much worse than the Mercedes-Benz."

"The chassis tuning is benchmarked against French cars, the suspension system can filter out road bumps very well, and the large sofa is based on Japanese cars, so the riding experience is simply unmatched by Audi."

"The interior is also luxurious and solemn, and it also uses a lot of high-tech, such as the car's control area. I also specially asked them to add a display screen and electronic watch."

To sum up what Qingfeng Li said, Audi is far inferior to Audi in terms of surface engineering with simple technology.
This kind of talk may fool ordinary people, but it cannot fool Secretary Qian who just visited the foreign automobile industry.

Secretary Qian waved his hand and got to the heart of the matter: "Stop, stop, stop. Let's not talk about these flashy things for now. I want to ask you, is the car engine made in China? How big is the gap in quality stability compared to foreign ones? How much horsepower is it?"

Flashy but not practical? Li Qingfeng just wanted to say, old man, you know nothing. As long as the car body is long enough, it is a symbol of high-end for Chinese people.

A refrigerator, a color TV and a large sofa, these are what most Chinese people consider when buying a car.

Engines and gearboxes are all empty talk. As long as they are qualified and durable, most people won’t pay too much attention to them.

Even though he was complaining in his heart, he still had to explain politely: "The engine is domestically produced, with a displacement of 2.5 liters, and there is absolutely no problem with horsepower. The new engine is developed based on the most powerful engine of the big brother, and the horsepower is definitely enough and meets the standards of a luxury car."

“What about quality and stability?”

“We can only say that there is still a gap, and we are trying to catch up. However, the shoddy manufacturing process of the big brother has been improved. The new engine no longer has the problems of the big brother engine in terms of noise and vibration, and is not much different from the imported engine.”

After hearing what Li Qingfeng said, Secretary Qian nodded with satisfaction.

It has only been a few years, and it is already very good for Feichi Automobile, a private company, to achieve this level. Its strength has far surpassed that of state-owned enterprises at this time.

We cannot ask for too much. After all, we cannot expect private enterprises to complete a task that even state-owned enterprises cannot accomplish.

After telling Li Qingfeng to hurry up and produce the cars, Secretary Qian then asked what Li Qingfeng wanted to talk to him about.

"It's like this, I want to place an order with the Aerospace Industry Company and ask them to help me develop products"

"Aerospace Industries? What products?"

"Satellites and Launch Vehicles"

"."

Li Qingfeng seemed to remember something and continued, "By the way, I want to set up a satellite company in China, mainly engaged in satellite launch projects. In the future, I may engage in manned aviation and space tourism projects. Please help me get the qualifications."

"Of course, I don't do research and development myself. I'm only responsible for operations. All research and development is packaged into orders and handed over to the Aerospace Industry Company."

"."

Secretary Qian opened his eyes wide, not daring to believe what he heard.

He dug his ears hard to get rid of the earwax, then tilted his head and asked, "What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly, can you say it again?"

"Don't doubt it, it's just as you heard," Li Qingfeng glanced at Secretary Qian and said lightly.

"Are you crazy or am I crazy? What? Do you think you can launch a satellite just because you rented a satellite receiver from the Russians?"

"Manned aviation, space tourism projects, why don't you go to space? I see you are not launching a satellite, you are launching a satellite at me! I..."

After Secretary Qian finished his machine-gun-like attack, Qingfeng Li finally put down the magazine that he had been using to block his spit.

After first glancing at the dots on the magazine cover, Qingfeng Li looked at Secretary Qian who was glaring at him angrily.

He said calmly: "Of course I want to go to the sky, but not now, but when the technology is mature."

"you"

"I know you're anxious, but wait, just listen to me."

"."

Secretary Qian looked at Qingfeng Li with a sneer, waiting to see what he would say.

Seeing that Secretary Qian had calmed down, Li Qingfeng continued, "This is the result of my careful consideration. I don't think the higher-ups will reject my request."

"First, I don't have a research and development team. All the technology is in the hands of the state. I can rest assured about security and there will be no risk of leaks."

"Secondly, the country is short of money and is lagging behind developed countries in many areas. We can only focus on national defense and local investments that can generate quick returns. Although we are working hard to ensure financial support for high-tech, high-investment fields such as aerospace, it is still stretched. Am I right?"

Secretary Qian now regained his composure, nodded, and motioned for Qingfeng Li to continue.

Seeing Secretary Qian's attitude, Qingfeng Li chuckled, knowing that his aviation career was a sure thing.

He immediately said the point that impressed the boss the most: "I provide orders to the aerospace industry. Although the research and development must be carried out according to my needs, the focus of commercial satellites and national satellites is different, but the technology is the same."

"In this way, aerospace industry companies can not only obtain financial support, but also continuously accumulate experience in practice and further improve their technical level."

"In addition, I don't require that I own the patents during the research and development process. We can share the technical patents. This is a win-win situation. What do you think?"

Secretary Qian listened to Li Qingfeng's words and fell into deep thought. He had to admit that what Li Qingfeng said made sense.

After a while, Secretary Qian slowly said, "I will report everything you said to my superiors in full. As for whether they will agree to cooperate with you, I cannot guarantee it."

"I understand, I understand, don't worry, I understand"

As he spoke, Qingfeng Li chuckled and said jokingly, "Secretary Qian, do you think the chances of getting this done will be greater if I give you a gift?"
