Material Empire

There is no other way, Chen Yuan can only make a request to Mo Kongchao again: no drinking, no traveling long distances to eat snacks during tomorrow's inspection, no... In short, keep things simple and don't waste time because of eating.

"Okay, okay, today's matter... well, it's Xing Zhongqin's good opinion, and I have already criticized him." Mo Kongchao looked very sincere.

"He also has a heart. That snack bar is indeed very authentic." Foodie Zhao Bowen said good things for Xing Zhongqin. Today's meal, although at Chen Yuan's request, everyone did not toast Takehiko Takamura, but Zhao Bowen and Xing Zhongqin still had a few drinks and exchanged feelings.

"Old Zhao, we are here to work!" Chen Yuan raised her eyes and scolded bluntly. In the field of economics, the economic committee is a third-level unit, and Chen Yuan is a bit old-fashioned, so she can show off her power.

On the third day of the inspection, everything went well, and the lunch met the requirements, and no time wasted. It's just that the location of the company under investigation is a little bit off, forty or fifty kilometers away from Quwu City, and the next unit to be inspected is also forty or fifty kilometers away from Quwu City... Unfortunately, it is on the opposite side direction.

"If we go there now, we will probably be off work when we get there. I think, why don't we go tomorrow?" Mo Kongchao discussed with Chen Yuan on the return bus.

"Mayor Mo, this arrangement...isn't it intentional?" Chen Yuan asked with a sneer, although she didn't understand why Mo Kongchao did this, but the result was like this, she is not stupid, how could she not see it ?

"No, no, how could it be intentional." Mo Kongchao looked very innocent.

Chen Yuan said: "That's all for today. Tomorrow, no matter what, we have to complete the inspection task. After inspecting several state-owned enterprises, if Mr. Gao Cun is still not satisfied, then go to your private enterprises. Mayor Mo, this is You should pay more attention to matters involving an investment of 200 million U.S. dollars."

"Director Chen is right in his criticism. We did not think carefully enough. Let's speed up the progress tomorrow and try to visit three companies in one day. What do you think?" Mo Kong asked.

Chen Yuan said: "I think it's okay. The remaining factories are all small factories. Since Mr. Gao Cun is not satisfied with big factories like Yitao and Ertao, these small factories are worthless."

"Okay, I will inform them to prepare well when I go back." Mo Kongchao agreed.

He didn't need to do anything anymore, because at noon he secretly called Liu Shuo and learned that Qin Hai had arrived in Quwu, and Qin Hai would be handing over the next play.

The inspection of several small state-owned ceramic factories was more like a formality. Except for Chen Yuan, Zhao Bowen, Wang Jiacheng and others simply did not go to accompany them, but stayed in the hotel to play cards for a day. After Takehiko Takamura vetoed various state-owned enterprises with various unreasonable reasons, Mo Kongchao told him that after repeated communication with the Quwu Municipal Government, the six existing private ceramic factories in Quwu expressed their willingness to approach the Japanese side, welcome Japanese personnel went to investigate.

"Can Mayor Mo please introduce the situation of these six companies first?" Takehiko Takamura asked, he needed a good excuse to bypass the companies he was not interested in and go straight to Brother Ceramics Factory. This kind of boring investigation in the past few days has already made him feel exhausted.

Mo Kongchao called the director of the Municipal Ceramics Industry Bureau and asked him to introduce the situation to Takehiko Takamura. Of the six private ceramic companies, five of them have no competitiveness at all, with only twenty or thirty employees, and their products can only be sold to some rural areas around Quwu. The one that can really stand on the table is the Brother Ceramics Factory, which produced industrial ceramics last year with an output value of over one million yuan. As for this year, the director of the ceramics bureau evasively stated that the factory is currently exploring the international market and will reach 10 million yuan by the end of the year. The above should be promising.

"10 million is equivalent to nearly 3 million US dollars. It is indeed a very good company." Chen Yuan commented beside it.

The Director of Ceramics turned his head to look at Mo Kongchao, and then corrected with a bitter face: "Uh... Director Chen, what I said is... about 10 million US dollars."

"10 million US dollars! Is it foreign exchange earned through export?" Chen Yuan lost her voice. For an official of the State Economic Commission, the export value of 10 million US dollars is certainly not a great figure, but this figure appears in such a small place as Quwu, and it is still a private enterprise, which is definitely a great achievement .

"Mayor Mo, why didn't you introduce this company before?" Chen Yuan asked Mo Kongchao.

Mo Kong said: "We are still checking this situation. This brother ceramics factory has recently developed a new product, which is a household knife made of ceramics, which is very popular among foreign businessmen. Last month, dozens of A businessman said that he wanted to be their foreign agent, and the signed cooperation intentions amounted to hundreds of millions of dollars. However, we were worried that these intentions might not be realized, so we only counted the more mature intentions, and it was almost more than 10 million. It looks like a dollar."

Mo Kongchao said this very tactfully, leaving some room for maneuver for everyone. Hearing this, Chen Yuan frowned, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

According to Chen Yuan's imagination, the so-called intention of hundreds of millions of dollars must be bragging on Qu Wu's side, or Brother Ceramics Factory deceived Mo Kongchao in order to win the support of the city government. There are so many export companies in the whole country, and it can be said that there are very few that can export hundreds of millions of dollars, and all of them are large state-owned enterprises, and the vast majority of them are resource-based enterprises.

A private ceramics factory dares to say that it can achieve hundreds of millions of dollars in exports, which is simply bragging without drafting. Such wild words are nothing more than deceiving local officials who have never seen the world. As an official of the State Economic Commission, she will naturally not believe it.

However, what she doesn't believe is only the figure of hundreds of millions of dollars. She still has some confidence in the ability of Brother Ceramics Factory to earn foreign exchange through exports. Most importantly, she vaguely felt something from Mo Kongchao's narration. She turned her head suspiciously to look at Takehiko Takamura, who just happened to cast a look at her secretly. The moment the eyes of the two met, Chen Yuan keenly noticed the panic in Takamura Takehiko's heart.

Nima, there is indeed a problem with this brother ceramics factory! Chen Yuan's heart suddenly opened up.

The investment in production bases and the inspection of ceramic companies turned out to be fake. Takehiko Takamura's real purpose must lie in this brother ceramic factory. Otherwise, why is Takehiko Takamura not interested in so many places in the country where the resource conditions and technical conditions are much better than Quwu, and why does he have to come to Quwu bitterly? Also, the conditions of Yitao and Ertao are obviously the best in Quwu. Why does Takehiko Takamura insist on investigating local private enterprises?

After thinking about this point, Chen Yuan suddenly felt humiliated after being cheated. Her first reaction was to jump up and yell at Takehiko Takamura, and by the way Mo Komura also cursed at her. Now she understands why Mo Komura was so hesitant when he saw Takehiko Takamura on the first day. Pretending to be ignorant and pretending to be confused, Dudu alone kept her, Zhao Bowen and others in the dark.

However, this thought just flashed through her mind and was suppressed. At this time, if she showed fury, it would be a real embarrassment. Takehiko Takamura was a foreign guest, even if she wanted to clean up, she couldn't show it openly like this, she could only think of a way after going back, and do it secretly. And Mo Kongchao, as Qu Wu's deputy mayor, is only half a level lower than her, and they have no affiliation with each other, so she can't get mad either.

Things have come to this point, what she can do is to cover up the fact that she was deceived as much as possible, so that people feel that this matter is very ideal and valuable from the beginning to the end, so that she can explain it when she goes back. Don't let yourself become a laughing stock within the Economic Committee.

"Haha, it turns out that Qu Wu still hides such a treasure!" Every wrinkle on Chen Yuan's face stretched out, and she met Takehiko Komura's gaze, and said with a smile: "Mr. Do you think that our company in Quwu can be so successful? A company whose products can enter the international market and win the favor of customers should meet the requirements of your company, right?"

"Yes, yes, I didn't expect it. It seems that our judgment on Qu Wu is correct. Only in such a place can a world-class ceramic production base be born." Takehiko Takamura took over Chen Yuan's words, and simply Playing a fool to the end.

Mo Kongchao also smiled and said: "Yes, yes, we have just investigated and found out that we have such a good company in Quwu. We very much hope that it can develop better with the help of Japanese friends. .”

Everyone knew what was going on in their hearts, but they all pretended to be confused very cleverly. No matter how you look at this scene, it feels full of weirdness. The plan to inspect the other five private companies was naturally abandoned, and everyone reached a high degree of unity, that is, the focus of tomorrow's inspection should be the Brother Ceramics Factory.

This night, everyone took a shower and fasted to refresh themselves. Early the next morning, under the leadership of Mo Kongchao, a group of people came to Brother Ceramics Factory in a mighty way and started a formal inspection.

As soon as the minibus drove into the gate of Brother Ceramics Factory, the group was infected by the lively atmosphere in the factory. I saw lanterns and festoons inside and outside the factory area, and red flags fluttering. On the main road of the factory area, there are more than a dozen red silk banners hanging, which read:

"Warmly welcome Mr. Takehiko Takamura from Kusela Company to visit our factory!"

"Warmly welcome Director Chen Yuan of the State Economic Commission to our factory to guide the work!"

"Warmly welcome Zhao Bowen, director of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, to our factory to guide the work!"

"A warm welcome..."

Under those banners stood a group of mid-level and high-level cadres from the Brothers Ceramics Factory, the leader of which was naturally Liu Shuo. Beside Liu Shuo, Takehiko Takamura saw a young and familiar face:

Qin Hai!
