King of Industry

Chapter 932 – Be A Witness, Not A Follower

Chapter 932 Be a witness, not a follower

After a night of rest in the hotel of the “Ministry of Mechanical and Electronic Industry”, Zhao Guoyang regained his energy.

After washing up here, he went to the cafeteria downstairs to have some porridge.

Because I ate too much greasy food last night, I still feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach. Naturally, my diet should be lighter.

Zhao Guoyang had just finished his last sip of porridge when the cell phone beside him rang.

He picked it up and took a look, and sure enough it was Mr. Li calling.

After the call was connected, Mr. Li’s voice came over.

“Guoyang, are you up?”

“I’m up, Mr. Li, I’m having breakfast!” Zhao Guoyang said with a smile.

“Well, I’m not busy, you can eat yours first. My car will arrive in about ten minutes, you prepare, and then we will go directly to the Ministry of Railways!”

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang was confused for a while: “Ah? Go directly to the Ministry of Railways? It’s not here with our Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry. Let me report to Minister Fang first?”

Li Kejian smiled wryly when he heard the words, “That’s right, but your flight was late yesterday, so you missed this opportunity.”

“Minister Fang mentioned to the leader about your application for the ‘high-speed railway project’ yesterday. As a result, the leader called Minister Jia of the Ministry of Railways and told him to listen carefully to the situation and report the progress in time.”

“After this Minister Jia heard the news, how could he sit still? He called me immediately and asked us to go to their Ministry of Railways to discuss things together today… What do you think I can do?”

Old Li’s complaint made Zhao Guoyang secretly laugh.

Actually, he also knows that even if Minister Fang and Mr. Li give themselves three rounds of trial first, they will definitely have a showdown with the “Ministry of Railways” in the end.

After all, the “high-speed railway project” is too important. Even the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry is completely unable to make a decision on this matter, so it can only continue to report to the higher authorities.

The big leaders above learned about such a matter, of course they attached great importance to it.

It is understandable that Minister Jia Zhichun was ordered to die.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang smiled and replied: “Okay, Mr. Li, I understand the situation, and I will come out of the hotel immediately and wait for you!”

Li Kejian didn’t talk too much, and hung up the phone after saying “um”.

After Zhao Guoyang put the phone back, he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and left the restaurant, thinking about going outside the hotel.

He waited not long at the entrance of the hotel when Li Kejian’s car drove over slowly.

After the car stopped in front of Zhao Guoyang, Mr. Li’s life secretary Xia Yunfei trotted out of the car from the co-pilot and waved to Zhao Guoyang.

Zhao Guoyang, who had been prepared for a long time, saw this, hurriedly greeted the other party, and got into the car from the other side.

After getting in the car, Zhao Guoyang naturally saw Mr. Li sitting on the right seat in the back row, and hurriedly greeted him.

Li Kejian also hadn’t seen Zhao Guoyang for a while, and when he saw him again, his eyes revealed a look of relief.

After staring at Zhao Guoyang for a while, the boss slowly said: “I haven’t seen you in a few months, Guoyang, you have grown up a lot. It seems that the busy time during this period has not exhausted you!” “

After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang smiled awkwardly, and knew what to answer.

Of course he could tell that Mr. Li meant something. He was implying that he was busy with his personal affairs recently and didn’t pay much attention to several key projects such as “high-speed tractor” and “military delivery truck”.

In fact, Zhao Guoyang has not delayed these two projects.

Especially the “high-speed tractor” has entered the final endurance test stage.

Of course, it would be troublesome to explain these words. Zhao Guoyang could only pretend to be confused by Mr. Li’s beating.

Fortunately, Li Kejian didn’t dwell on this issue, and soon asked about the real thing.

After the car started, the boss patted Zhao Guoyang’s hand with concern and said, “Guoyang, this ‘high-speed railway project’ is no joke, we must be careful!”

Seeing Zhao Guoyang nodding silently, Li Kejian added: “Of course, Guoyang, I have always been at ease when you do things. While there are no outsiders at the moment, you can tell me the truth. After all, this project is a success.” How likely is it?”

After hearing Li Kejian’s question, Zhao Guoyang’s expression became extremely solemn.

All along, Mr. Li has always trusted his technical attainments. Even when he established the “Ship Industry-Special Materials Research Institute”, he was not so worried.

Now that this person asked himself about the “high-speed railway project”, Zhao Guoyang knew that he had to take this issue seriously.

After silently pondering for a moment, Zhao Guoyang expressed his true thoughts deep in his heart.

He smiled calmly, and then said: “Mr. Li, the ‘high-speed railway project’ cannot be completed overnight. Although I am still very confident in technology, this project is too complicated and involves a lot. You Now I am asked to give an exact number, I really can’t come up with it…”

Zhao Guoyang’s words were all from the bottom of his heart. After hearing this, Li Kejian could only sigh deeply.

Just when Mr. Li nodded slightly, Zhao Guoyang changed the subject: “However, although I can’t give you a definite answer. But what I want to say is that no matter whether the success rate is high or low; No matter how much manpower and material resources will be spent in the end, we must implement it…”

“Because if we, China, want to develop in the future, if we want to become a witness of the world’s industrial development, not a follower, we must have our own ‘high-speed railway technology’!” Zhao Guoyang clenched his fist and said word by word.

Listening to Zhao Guoyang’s cadenced words, Li Kejian seemed to be infected by his passion.

He patted Zhao Guoyang’s shoulder vigorously, and said with a gratified smile: “Okay, well said, Guoyang! It’s not in vain that I have always been optimistic about you for you to have such insight.”

Li Kejian praised Zhao Guoyang a few words, and then said again: “Speaking of which, the ‘high-speed railway project’ you proposed will take a long time. When I was a child, I also gave pertinent advice.”

“In my opinion, as long as you lead Guoyang, the final success of our project is almost certain. And once China’s ‘high-speed railway’ is successfully developed, it will greatly boost the development of the national economy.”

Li Kejian paused for a moment, and then said: “It is precisely because of this opinion that when I reported to the leader, I extended the study period by two years.”

“Originally, the leader hoped to see some results of this ‘high-speed rail project’ within five years. After my bargaining, the final time limit was seven years.”

Patted Zhao Guoyang on the shoulder, Li Kejian cheered up the atmosphere and said: “So, little comrade, you can’t let me lose face in front of the country’s leaders!”

Listening to Li Kejian’s half-joking words, Zhao Guoyang nodded vigorously.

He secretly rejoiced: “Mr. Li’s support for me is definitely too strong. If there are only five years, I am really not sure that I will get this ‘high-speed railway project’ going.”

“But now that it has been seven years, things are much easier to handle. Even if we can’t get the ‘high-speed rail project’ before the rebirth, right? It shouldn’t be a big problem to reach the level of the ‘high-speed train project’…”

Looking at Zhao Guoyang beside him gradually lost in thought, a relieved smile appeared on Li Kejian’s face.

…

When it comes to the “Ministry of Railways”, Zhao Guoyang is already familiar with the road.

After getting out of the elevator, he walked side by side with Mr. Li, only half a body behind.

While walking, the two communicated in a low voice, and of course they were talking about some technical issues.

Zhao Guoyang recounted his activities in South Korea these days, basically explaining why he wants to engage in the “high-speed railway project”.

Sure enough, after listening to his introduction, Mr. Li obviously became more confident.

The leader stopped in his tracks, glanced at Zhao Guoyang with a smile and said, “Guoyang, you haven’t said anything about eating this ‘Hanbao Iron and Steel Company’ for now, have you?”

Zhao Guoyang nodded inexplicably, wondering why Mr. Li asked this.

Li Kejian smiled mysteriously, and then said: “Guoyang, you probably don’t know yet. The “Shougang Group” in our capital has just adjusted its production structure in the first half of this year, and now it is urgently needed to introduce an advanced production line.”

“Two days ago, the leader of the ‘Shougang Group’ even asked me for instructions, asking me which foreign company should introduce this production line.”

“It’s no coincidence now, Guoyang, you have already taken down the ‘Hanbao Iron and Steel Company’. You said that I don’t recommend your company, so who do you recommend?”

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang understood everything.

Emotions Mr. Li is telling himself not to leak the matter of his annexation of “Han Bao Steel Company” first, but to make a fortune in silence.

After the matter is negotiated, it is not too late for me to make this matter public.

The reason why Mr. Li wants to do this is very simple. In addition to helping himself, he also hopes that he can read the good of “Shougang Group” in the future.

If I really negotiated this deal with the “Shougang Group” this time, when I cooperate again in the future, I will definitely have to give way to the other party.

Perhaps this is what Mr. Li hopes to do.

Zhao Guoyang is thinking over and over again what Li Lao said just now, and he has already arrived at the place ahead.

In a small office next to the minister’s office, the staff saw that Mr. Li and Zhao Guoyang had arrived, so they rushed over to greet them, and warmly introduced them into Minister Jia Zhichun’s office.
