Material Empire

In 1995, the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar has dropped to 8:1, and 3 million US dollars is equivalent to 24 million RMB. With an investment of 24 million RMB, only 90% of the shares, and the promise to keep all the workers, this is really a very favorable cooperation condition. Back then, investors were all bigots, who were not the ones who opened their mouths to make unlimited concessions from the local government. As a US-funded company, Fermi Corporation can show such sincerity in cooperation, what else can everyone say?

The conditions mentioned by Tian Ruzhi, of course, were not put forward by her at will, but were decided by the headquarters of Daqin Group after careful consideration. Logically speaking, even if the Daqin Group offers a lower condition, Hongze City will accept it, because being able to transfer Hongze Electric Machinery Factory to Hongze City is to get rid of a burden. Everything you want.

However, both Qin Hai and Ning Zhongying believed that it would be beneficial for Hongze City to operate after the merger of Hongze Electric Factory by properly giving up a part of their interests. Adopting a joint venture with Hongze City, instead of completely eating up Hongze Electric Machinery Factory, can tie the Hongze City Government to the chariot of Daqin Group. In the future, when things like land acquisition and recruitment are involved, Hongze City will There is enthusiasm to help solve it, and this 10% stake is not a waste.

Don't be too ugly when eating, this is Ning Zhongying's creed in doing things. As an old entrepreneur with rich experience, he deeply understands the importance of good relations in all aspects.

Naturally, Tian Ruzhi would not tell Zhu Xiaodong about these things. If one day these considerations were to be revealed, Qin Hai would have to come forward and tell Chai Peide or the leaders of Hongze City that Zhu Xiaodong's face was simply not enough.

Although they don’t know what Tian Ruzhi is thinking, the officials of the China Merchants Bureau were overjoyed when they heard the conditions she proposed. They attracted foreign capital of 3 million US dollars and retained 10% of the shares of Hongze Electric Factory. This is quite remarkable. achievements.

Zhu Xiaodong suppressed his joy, pretended to talk nonsense, and finally accepted Tian Ruzhi's offer. The two parties agreed to arrange Mag and Tian Ruzhi to visit Hongze Electric Machinery Factory the next day, and then entrust an accounting firm to investigate the price. The assets and debts of Hongze Motor Factory will be audited, and the joint venture delivery will be completed as soon as possible.

"Director Zhu, the signing of the joint venture is only the first step of our cooperation. After Fermi officially enters the Hongze Electric Factory, we have many other affairs, and we need the Hongze Municipal Government to provide us with convenience. I am afraid that this point needs to be written. It was included in our cooperation agreement." Tian Ruzhi said.

"That's for sure." Zhu Xiaodong said without hesitation, "If you invest in Hongze, you are Hongze's guests. If the guests encounter any troubles, as the host, how can we not help?"

"With Director Zhu's words, we can rest assured." Tian Ruzhi said, "We plan to launch personnel recruitment activities in the near future to make up for the current talent shortage of Hongze Electric Factory. I don't know if Hongze City can give us this. Provide cooperation."

"Of course!" Zhu Xiaodong said, "recruiting talents is an important part of business operation, of course we will provide full cooperation. If Director Tian needs to publish a recruitment notice, whether it is in the evening newspaper or on the TV station, we can help coordinate it. Get you the lowest advertised price."

"If the talents we recruit encounter personnel obstacles, can Director Zhu help solve them?" Tian Ruzhi asked again.

"There are special policies in this province." Zhu Xiaodong said, "For the local recruitment of foreign-invested enterprises, involving employees of government agencies, public institutions, and former state-owned enterprises, the original unit shall not block it for any reason. So... "

As soon as he said this, Zhu Xiaodong suddenly had a flash of thought, thinking of a serious matter, and the rhetoric got stuck all of a sudden.

Fermi is a motor manufacturer, and it has a joint venture with Hongze Motor Factory for the production of motors. So, can the talents that Fermi Company wants to recruit have nothing to do with motors?

In Hongze City, where are there many motor talents?

The answer is ready to come out, that is Anhe Electric Factory.

In other words, Tian Ruzhi's upcoming recruitment campaign is aimed at Anhe Electric Factory. What she wants to do is to pry into Anhe Electric Factory's corner and grab its talents. And the result of doing this is to directly confront Xiaoyuan Club, which is not a casual thing.

As an official in charge of investment promotion, Zhu Xiaodong knew something about the acquisition of Anhe Electric Factory by Xiaoyuan Society. For this matter, several leaders in the province blushed at each other. How can such a big matter not be spread in the government? It is precisely because of this that Zhu Xiaodong knew that the vice-governor Wang He was behind the Xiaoyuan Club, and because it involved national policies such as the resumption of the customs or entry into the WTO, even the governor chose to support Wang He, the deputy governor in charge of the economy. Chang Chai Peide became a loser.

As a Japanese-funded enterprise that can make Chapeide make concessions, Ohara Club enjoys a very special status in Anhe Province. If other companies blatantly pry its corner, the government may have to come out to mediate. Tian Ruzhi asked again and again whether the Hongze City Government would provide him with convenience, presumably because of this factor, if he nodded and agreed rashly, there would be endless troubles.

"What, is there any difficulty?" Tian Ruzhi saw Zhu Xiaodong's embarrassment, she smiled and took Zhu Xiaodong into the army.

"It shouldn't be... no difficulty." Zhu Xiaodong said in a disguised manner, "However, if Director Tian wants to recruit employees from Anhe Electric Factory... Maybe you need to report to the provincial government, otherwise..."

"I don't understand that." Tian Ruzhi said with a sullen face, "Is there anything special about Anhe Electric Factory? Why can't its employees be recruited?"

Zhu Xiaodong said: "Recruitment is of course possible, but...Director Tian, ​​you must know that the Anhe Electric Factory has now been merged by the Japanese Ohara Corporation, and it belongs to a Japanese-funded enterprise..."

"We are a US-funded enterprise." Tian Ruzhi reminded coldly.

"That's right!" Zhu Xiaodong blurted out, and only after he finished speaking did he realize that he had made a slip of the tongue. It doesn't matter what he thinks in his heart, how can he just say it out of his mouth?

Since he has been communicating with Tian Ruzhi, Zhu Xiaodong subconsciously regards Fermi as a domestic company. If a domestic-funded company is poaching foreign-funded companies, the province will definitely favor foreign-funded companies, which is why Zhu Xiaodong dare not agree to Tian Ruzhi. However, if an American-funded company is poaching a corner of a Japanese-funded company, the province can only remain neutral, and will not make any biases. The reason is very simple. Japanese-funded companies cannot afford to offend them. Take it lightly?

"Whether it is Anhe Electric Factory or Hongze Electric Factory, they are all enterprises in Anhe Province. We treat all enterprises equally. If your company recruits employees from Anhe Electric Factory, it will cause conflicts between the two enterprises. , we will not favor any side, please forgive me for this point." Zhu Xiaodong said righteously.

What he said was to make Tian Ruzhi understand, but the subtext was to tell Tian Ruzhi that Fermi Company has any tricks, just use them. We are not partial to Fermi Company, nor are we partial to Ohara Club. Which company engineers and technical workers want to work for is their freedom, and we will not interfere.

Xiaoyuan Club bought the Anhe Electric Factory at a high price, because of the talent team of the Anhe Electric Factory and the production tradition formed over the years. Hongze Electric Factory is worthless because its technicians and workers are not as good as Anhe Electric Factory. If Fermi Company conducts open recruitment and offers favorable conditions, why worry that people from Anhe Electric Factory will not go to Fermi Company?

For Fermi Corporation, if it can recruit one, it counts as one, and if it can't, there is no loss. As for Xiaoyuan Club, if one person is taken away, it is a loss. If too many people are taken away, the previous investment in the acquisition of Anhe Electric Factory will be in vain.

Zhu Xiaodong is not afraid of Xiaoyuan Club's impatient eyes. Even if Wang He intervenes, Zhu Xiaodong will have something to say. Fermi is an American company, can you let me stop them from recruiting? Otherwise, you, Vice Governor Wang, will go to Mr. Mag to communicate with him personally to see if the Americans are better at speaking than the Japanese, okay?

With this reliance, Zhu Xiaodong's back became stiff. He even had a little bit of anticipation, hoping to see Fermi Company prying all the corners of the Ohara Corporation, and the Anhe Electric Factory, which had a great reputation, never recovered, while the half-dead Hongze Electric Factory stood out and replaced the Anhe Electric Factory. .

You must know that Anhe Electric Factory is an enterprise in the province, and its rise and fall has nothing to do with Hongze City. But Hongze Motor Factory is Hongze's own company. If it is done well, it will be Hongze City's political achievements, and it is also an ironclad proof that Zhu Xiaodong is good at attracting investment. The province spent so much effort to attract the Ohara Club, but the Anhe Electric Factory was brought down. He, Zhu Xiaodong, recruited Fermi Company, but saved Hongze Electric Machinery Factory. Comparing the two, isn't it clear at a glance who is more capable?

As for whether the province will lose face because of this, it is none of Zhu Xiaodong's business. It is the rule of thumb in official circles that a dead Taoist friend will not die a poor one, and Zhu Xiaodong has done a lot of research on this.

"Director Tian, ​​when do you plan to start recruiting? Do you want us to arrange a few people from the Investment Promotion Office to help you?" After thinking about this part, Zhu Xiaodong enthusiastically helped Tian Ruzhi get it together. He even wanted to do it himself. Help Tian Ruzhi stab Xiaoyuan Club hard.

"Then I would like to thank Director Zhu very much. We will pay the people that Director Zhu arranged for us according to the time. As for the recruitment time, of course, the sooner the better." Tian Ruzhi replied with a smile.
