Chapter 758: Raising grass to catch rabbits
After Chen Tao ended his call with student Liang Sishen, he made another phone call home.
"Not coming back? Xiaohui, you haven't finished your work. You can take it back to do it. Why don't you go home? You don't know. When I just went to work today, a teacher Pei asked me to write a notice. How could I know this? Write, I just came to work! She is targeting me!”
Cheng Kaiyan first complained that her husband didn't go home to accompany her, and then talked about what happened in the bureau today, and asked Chen Tao to say hello.
Obviously, she didn't listen to Cheng Laoden's words.
After hearing this, Chen Tao fell into silence without commenting.
After a while, he said:
"Kitten, it's really inconvenient to work from home. I can't go back. You should go to bed early. Then if you really don't know how to write a notice, just leave it alone!"
With Sui Chunfeng here, so what if Cheng Kaiyan didn't write? Even if she didn’t write it, she would still be the first to take it personally!
In addition to being angry, the person named Pei could only rush the manuscript by himself, otherwise what else could he do?
Hearing what her husband said, Cheng Kaiyan felt a little uncomfortable and simply asked:
"Xiaohui~ Do you think I am useless? Do you no longer have me in your heart?"
As her husband continued to improve, she asked this question more and more frequently, and her suspicion became more and more serious.
Even if it's a female cat, she'll be jealous if she clings to her husband.
Chen Tao, like the boss of the Ax Gang, Da Chen, said feebly:
"Stop talking silly, kitten, you are my wife, how can I not have you in my heart?"
Cheng Kaiyan didn't believe what he said, but still said happily:
"Xiaohui, I know you still have me in your heart, you are the best to me!"
Chen Tao didn't believe her either. Otherwise, why would she help the family plot against her husband if she knew he was the best to her?
Between husband and wife, is there anything that cannot be discussed openly?
But he still smiled and said: "We are a family, so we should treat you well!"
We are a family.
Song Yunhui mentioned this sentence repeatedly and emphasized it, but only said half of it.
What he actually means is that you, Cheng Kaiyan, can't just think about your parents, brother and sister-in-law who are part of the same family. I am your husband, and you must also think about me.
And what about Cheng Kaiyan? I haven't been able to understand it from beginning to end, or I have understood it, but I don't recognize it.
I'm just helping you get a good job, why don't you think about it? Didn’t my dad support you back then?
Not only are you okay, you’ve also been promoted!
White-eyed wolf!
When Cheng Kaiyan heard her husband say that he should be good to herself again, he immediately brought up the old matter again:
"As for my brother's work, can you think of a way to solve it as soon as possible? He has been worried recently, and my father is also worried."
Chen Tao sighed: "Your brother is now the deputy secretary of the workshop, which can be regarded as a department level. It is really difficult to arrange work at this level, so you should be patient!"
When Cheng Kaiyan heard this, he couldn't say anything else, so he told Chen Tao not to stay up late and ended the call.
After that, she called her father again and relayed Chen Tao's words.
At this moment, her brother Cheng Qianli was also here with her father. Hearing the prevarication of her brother-in-law, a country bumpkin from the countryside, he immediately felt unhappy and said:
"If he hadn't come to our house, would Song Yunhui be where he is today? A bad technician from the countryside! A white-eyed wolf!"
Cheng's mother quickly closed the door: "Please keep your voice down, the child is not asleep yet!"
Not only did Cheng Qianli not listen to the advice, he became even more angry, "I don't care! Do you really want to be a nanny for that person named Song?"
It can be seen from this that the two elders of the Cheng family had ulterior motives in helping to take care of their granddaughter.
Cheng Laoden had a gloomy face and kept making calculations in his mind. At the same time, he stopped his son:
"Okay, when you're full, go home and rest quickly. Don't make any noise at my place! Over Song Yunhui's side, I'll think of another way."
None of his children can worry!
Can you just say such bullshit casually? I'm used to saying it, but next time I spill the beans in person, what should I do?
Mud can't hold up the wall!
It's a pity that no matter how rotten he is, he is still his only son. If he doesn't help him, who else will help him?
Cheng Qianli retorted: "He doesn't want to help, what can I do?"
Lao Deng glared at him and said, "Then you can do it yourself!"
Cheng Qianli was speechless for a moment. If he had the ability to command his brother-in-law, would he still need to ask his father and sister for help?
But he still said stubbornly: "Anyway, you promised Yuan Xiang that you would transfer both of us to the Donghai Procurement Department. If this can't be done, go and tell her yourself."
Yuan Xiang is his wife, who is also stupid, bad and greedy. She is a perfect match with him.
Cheng Laodeng didn't say anything, he just stared at his son Cheng Qianli, feeling very angry. I was annoyed that he was ignorant, and I also hated that my son-in-law was ruthless.
Seeing that the father and son were angry, Cheng's mother drove her son away first, and then discussed with her husband how to make the son-in-law submit.
The dimly lit study seemed darker.
early morning.
Cheng Kaiyan got up and washed up, but instead of making breakfast, she called her husband in the factory.
Unfortunately no one picked up.
My mood suddenly turned bad.
But she still had to go downstairs and take the seven o'clock bus to work in the city.
At the Port Authority Station, she unexpectedly met Sui Chunfeng.
Sui Chunfeng became even more enthusiastic.
Chen Tao, on his side, also got up early and came out of the lounge to take a walk around the factory.
Since he worked many late nights, he had a dedicated rest room in the factory.
When he came here yesterday morning, he brought a change of clothes and daily necessities.
As for food and drink, what is there in the factory?
At a quarter past eight, after breakfast, Chen Tao returned to the office.
After a while, Fang Ping said there was something wrong with the instrument, so he went there again.
pier.
Factory director Ma Baoping, after learning that Chen Tao was not available, personally handled the problem of workers fighting.
In fact, it hasn’t been processed yet.
Because when Chen Tao solved the problem and returned to the office, his younger brother Jin Changxiao brought a report on the fight for Chen Tao to review.
This is undoubtedly double-minded.
Did Ma Baoping know he was coming?
Even if Ma Baoping knew about it, or even personally instructed him to come, and asked Chen Tao to understand the relevant situation, he would never have guessed that he had already wanted to jump back.
I have to say that Lao Ma feels really aggrieved to be in charge!
"Okay, put it here!"
Chen Tao held up a book and said to Jin Changxiao without raising his head.
Jin Changxiao responded, put down the report with both hands, and then said with a somewhat nervous tone:
"If nothing happens in Factory Song, then I will go back to the dock first."
The reason why he was so nervous was because it was rumored that Factory Song was ruthless and had disagreements with Director Ma, which naturally put pressure on him, the Director Ma faction;
The second reason is that he himself has a wrong idea and wants to abandon Director Ma and move closer to Chen Tao.
This is no small matter, it may affect him for the rest of his life.
"etc."
Chen Tao raised his head and said: "Old Zhao is already writing a plan to optimize the terminal's capacity, so you should hurry up."
Upon hearing this, Jin Changxiao was immediately encouraged and said with a flattering smile: "I know. As soon as I finish it, I will send it to Song Factory."
Chen Tao nodded and continued reading his book.
Jin Changxiao picked up his safety helmet and turned to leave the office. When he walked to the door, he looked back.
When he thought about it, he had the support of Factory Manager Ma and the encouragement of Factory Song. How could he not hold on to a cricket dock?
He is not young anymore, it is his turn to make progress!
***
After Jin Changxiao left, Chief Accountant Liu Yuhai walked in.
He came to tell Chen Tao that Ma Baoping was wooing him and hoped that he could support Jin Changxiao at the meeting.
There are a total of five people in the Donghai Factory team.
Liu Yuhai and Han Zegang are centrists, but this does not mean that they are in the same group. They just do not stand between Chen Tao and Lao Ma.
On Lao Ma's side, in addition to himself, he also has Gao Xiangrong, who is in charge of administration, supporting him.
As for Chen Tao, he is the only one on the surface, but he actually has greater power.
If Liu Yuhai supports Lao Ma, then the candidate in charge of the dock will undoubtedly lean towards Jin Changxiao.
Will Liu Yuhai support Lao Ma?
Won't.
He is Director Lu's man and a secret supporter of Chen Tao.
When he was outside just now and saw Jin Changxiao coming out of Chen Tao's office, he had already thought about a lot.
But cannot confirm.
So he wanted to know if Chen Tao had taken advantage of the old horse and whether he should support Jin Changxiao himself?
He looked into Chen Tao's eyes and said with a natural smile:
"...Actually, I think Lao Zhao is quite good, but he was also present during the fight last night and seemed to have failed to handle it well."
Chen Tao also smiled and said: "After all, it was an emergency. If it was not handled well, Lao Zhao should not be blamed entirely."
Liu Yuhai was surprised: "Then do you support Lao Zhao? Lao Han has also approached you?"
This guy sees things clearly.
Chen Tao shook his head: "I can't make a choice at the moment because I don't know either of them very well. I just want to see who comes up with a more suitable plan."
Liu Yuhai said oh, knowing that he still had other ideas, so he expressed his position:
"I said the same thing when I was at Lao Ma's place just now. I'm just a financial person and know nothing about technology. How can I know who is good at it? In this way, how can you, who are engaged in technology, invest, and how can I follow..."
This is almost an obvious statement.
Who is the technical person? Chen Tao.
Who does Liu Yuhai support? Chen Tao.
Chen Tao nodded: "Then let's seek truth from facts and let's look at the plan!"
Liu Yuhai hummed and mentioned the second phase equipment budget again.
The ministry tentatively plans to use Japanese equipment.
Because now those Western developed countries are imposing embargoes, and Japan wants to open up an opening to make a lot of money.
There is precedent for this. Back then, they had many deals with the Soviet Union, and they were severely beaten by the United States for this.
But as long as the money is available, they still care about food and not food.
And they also know that the United States allows other countries to embargo it, just because it is afraid that it will hinder its own sales.
Later, didn't the American Loda Company, with Liang Sishen as its negotiator, successfully reach a joint venture with Donghai Factory? Make more money than simply selling technology and equipment!
In fact, in Chen Tao's view, the reason why Luoda was chosen was to give Liang Sishen an opportunity to stay.
Roda is indeed good, but Germany's BASF and China's Total are not bad either, right?
In addition, the Japanese technology and equipment that the ministry wants to choose are not bad.
Although it is not the most advanced, the cost is relatively more controllable, and the distance is also very close, making it easy to repair and replace parts.
As for the technical backwardness...
Even if they chose Luoda, they would not teach the most critical catalyst and automation technology to Donghai.
You still have to rely on your own research and development.
In this case, Roda is by no means the only choice.
Although Japan is also very picky, but through the two of them, Chen Tao may not be able to defeat Germany's BASF.
Isn’t this how Siemens was settled in future high-speed rail negotiations?
But in this case, his good student will probably suffer a huge defeat.
Of course, this is okay. Isn’t it normal for students to be inferior to their teachers? Just continue to follow him and study hard from now on.
After chatting about the budget, Liu Yuhai asked somewhat pessimistically:
"Song Factory, I heard that those countries are now embargoed? Can those equipment really be bought?"
Chen Tao said confidently: "Don't worry, the embargo will not last forever. Judging from the development trend of the global industrial chain, developed countries such as OMI and Japan will try to always occupy technological advantages and earn the most profits; and the profits are not high. , but very important production will be transferred to us. This is our opportunity! As long as we work hard, we can move from low-end industry to high-end and make big money with high technology, maybe by the end of this year or next year. Things will change at the beginning of the year, so you have to put some thought into your budget and don’t skimp on it.”
Liu Yuhai was immediately in awe after hearing these words.
Although everyone seems to know these words in later generations, at this moment, being able to come up with such a conclusion undoubtedly shows a very high strategic vision.
Chen Tao continued: "I'm going to the capital the day after tomorrow. I also want to discuss the selection of equipment and technology for this second phase with Director Lu..."
Liu Yuhai nodded repeatedly: "Director Lu stands high and sees far. We will follow his decisions closely and we will not make mistakes."
On the afternoon of the 20th, Chen Tao arrived at the Ministry of Chemical Industry.
Knowing Chen Tao's intention, Director Lu was very puzzled: "German technology is good, but it is still embargoed. How can we buy it? We should consider Japan for the time being!"
Chen Tao explained with a smile: "Even if you can't buy German goods, you can still lower the price to Japan through Germany! To be honest, yesterday I contacted BASF people through the embassy. If possible, I will Just go and investigate.”
Director Lu was surprised and said, "Are you kidding me? Do they know, Lao Ma?"
Chen Tao said casually: "They are worrying about who is in charge of the dock! They will definitely not be able to take care of me for the time being. Therefore, I don't want to trouble them. Please help me pick two people from the ministry to accompany me."
Pick two people to accompany you to Germany?
Pick someone to manage the dock for you!
Isn’t this person who is chosen yours from now on? What a Song Yunhui, looking at the rampage, but he also has a lot of thoughts!
Director Lu smiled and said, "Do you think this is hunting rabbits?"
Chen Tao said seriously: "It doesn't count, because I really want to find professional talents, not some old fritters who want to speculate in my business."
Director Lu raised his eyebrows, as if he knew what he was talking about. Obviously, Liu Yuhai called him.
He returned to the topic: "I agree with you to go to Germany for inspection, but I'm afraid you won't be able to go in a short time. The knowledgeable translators and experts should be very busy."
"No, I know technology and I know German very well. I can handle it all by myself."
"real?"
"I can make a call and introduce you to the person in charge of BASF's industrial solutions department."
