Chapter 256 The ring finger is upgraded to level 7! (Ask for monthly ticket)
On the evening of July 11th,
YTV News LB conducted a special report on the Xinghai Group booth for about three to five minutes.
The audience in front of the TV station saw in the video that Xinghai Group's exhibition gathered hundreds of visitors, especially in front of the diesel engine, which was even more crowded, all vying to witness the elegance of this important weapon of the country.
The camera shifts to show a handsome young man conducting business negotiations with two foreign clients.
He is eloquent, thinks clearly, pronounces English clearly, and has a cadence in his tone, which is very magnetic.
His facial features are clear, his temperament is unique, and his smile is warm and sunny. Especially his slim and fashionable clothes are eye-catching.
He is the chairman of Xinghai Group, Fang Bai!
Fang Bai appeared in front of a national television station for the first time. After being introduced by on-site reporters, the national audience saw for the first time the business miracles of the richest man in the country.
The YTV reporter was granted a brief interview time alone. Fang Bai sat naturally in a chair, facing the camera, and was very talkative: "Manufacturing is an important pillar of a country's economic development, and its level of development directly affects the country's industrialization level and economic development.
The machinery industry is an important symbol of a country's industrialization level. The level of a country's industrialization depends largely on the development level of its machinery industry.
This is one of the reasons why I focus on developing the mechanical industry and choose this major.
It is undeniable that there is a huge gap between our country's machinery industry and developed countries, but don't belittle yourself and think that everything is better abroad. After all, other countries' industrial development has been hundreds of years, while ours is only a few years old.
As long as we persevere and work hard, we can definitely shorten the gap. Maybe in twenty or thirty years, we will have many technologies that are better than those of developed countries. "
The media reporter asked again: "Mr. Fang, Xinghai Group has developed a world-class diesel engine. Does this mean that Xinghai Group's technology in the field of diesel engines has surpassed the international diesel engine giants?"
Fang Bai smiled and said very confidently: "Xinghai Group is indeed at the top of the world in terms of combustion systems, but we still have certain gaps in some key technical areas, such as electronic control systems and main pumps. In this regard, we still need to further improve.
Therefore, we cannot simply think that we have completely surpassed the international giants.
Of course, in terms of comprehensive technical level, our diesel engines have reached the world's first-class level.
However, we still need to keep a clear head, have an accurate understanding of our own technology, and continue to work hard to improve. "
This is the end of Fang Bai's scene. The reporter roughly summed it up, praising Fang Bai for being confident and humble, working hard to break the international monopoly, and having the courage to admit his company's shortcomings.
An interview like this on YTV is also very suitable for broadcasting.
Audiences across the country saw Fang Bai's face more clearly this time and remembered this young rich man.
That night, Fang Bai's parents called him and happily said that he was on TV.
Qin Shuyu's parents also saw that Fang Bai was on Y-vision and felt very proud: Look, this is our excellent son-in-law!
"Unexpectedly, three years later, Abo has become a national figure!" After watching the TV, Chen Jiahui felt a smile on her lips.
Qin Donghai felt the most and said happily: "Yes, at that time, when he helped me run valve orders, I felt that he was extraordinary, but I didn't expect that he could reach this height."
Today's Jiayu Valve Company, three years have passed, and 50 acres of industrial land has been developed. It already has TS, API6A, API609, ISO9001, ISO15848, 14001 and other certifications. The company's business has expanded to several countries and regions, and has obtained many oil and gas certifications. companies and engineering companies and become their qualified suppliers.
It is now a valve factory with two to three hundred workers, and its turnover last year exceeded 20 million yuan.
Relying on the valve developed by Fangbai, it has extended a number of products based on it. It already has its own products and has established a technical center with more than a dozen technical personnel.
The company is developing rapidly, and Qin Donghai is very satisfied.
Fang Bai's aunt's family also saw Fang Bai on TV while eating.
"Your cousin is addicted to TV. Now many viewers across the country know him."
The second cousin looked at his mother and said proudly: "My cousin is too low-key. If he wants to go to bed early, he avoids reporters and refuses to be interviewed."
My eldest cousin said: "People are afraid of being famous and people are afraid of being strong. It's better to keep a low profile. You see, my cousin has to bring a bodyguard with him when he goes out. It's very inconvenient."
Fang Bai's two cousins have been working at Xinghai Supermarket for two years. They are responsible for purchasing. Their income is not bad and they have already found a partner.
…
At ten o'clock in the evening,
As soon as Fang Baigang finished gymnastics with Qin Shuyu, he received a golden finger reminder.
The ring finger has been upgraded!
[Tip: When the number of contacts reaches 640, the ring finger can be upgraded to level 7. Do you want to upgrade? 】
[The number of contacts required for the next level upgrade of the ring finger: 1280]
Seeing this prompt, Fang Bai was extremely happy.
Too long to wait.
A whole year!
Three events, including the company's technology exhibition, visiting financial institutions abroad, and the Shanghai Industrial Exhibition, added a lot of contacts to Fang Bai and also spent a lot of time on Fang Bai.
In the later stages, it becomes increasingly difficult to upgrade.
If you want to reach level 8, you probably won't even think about it for two to three years.
With his thoughts racing, Fang Bai returned to reality, silently recited "confirm", and the gold finger on his ring finger was directly upgraded to level 7!
Suddenly, he felt a rush of heat on his right ring finger.
After a while, the heat ended, and he saw that the scar on his ring finger became lighter. With the +1 manual ability of his index finger, his finger became more flexible.
[Ring finger LV7: You can know the other person’s information and current inner thoughts in the past month, and check the favorability level, limited to 5 people per day;
Can be accumulated without upper limit.
Cast bad luck +20]
[Tip 1: If the favorability is higher than 85, the spell will be invalid. It lasts for ten years. It is limited to five people per day. It can be accumulated and there is no upper limit]
[Tip 2: Cast brain waves on someone from the air, affecting the other person's spirit, planting spiritual seeds, reducing luck by -20, taking effect one day after casting, lasting for one month, maximum one person per month, can be canceled]
[Tip 3: Use brain waves to weaken your own mental power, and it will take three days to return to normal]
Fang Bai was slightly shocked after reading the newly added functions.
"Cast Bad Luck +20?"
After reading the prompt, you probably understand what it means.
This is specifically designed to deceive people!
However, after hurting others, it has a slight impact on yourself.
If you are not an enemy you hate so much, there is no need to do this.
Does Fang Bai have such an enemy?
have!
However, only reducing your holdings by -20 is still a bit low. If you add a little more, you may get into a car accident when you go out, or you may get distracted while driving and have an accident.
At present, this function is of little use to Fang Bai, but if it is more powerful, it will kill people invisible.
Changes in other functions, no longer limiting the number of people, are of great use to him.
When it comes to large social events, the upper limit of 100 people is still low.
Now that there is no upper limit, you can accumulate more on a daily basis.
Other than that, there are no new features.
For Fang Bai, he is satisfied with the development of his ring finger to this extent.
Unless, at higher levels, there will be new functions.
Fang Bai was in a great mood and soon fell asleep.
The next day, I came to the company's booth again.
The company's booth was still very popular. On this day, senior executives of automobile manufacturers began to visit, and Fang Bai met with him.
The next day, Xinghai Group reached a cooperation with First Automobile Manufacturing Plant, which will be the future FAW Jiefang.
The ex-factory price of the 120kW four-cylinder diesel engine XH4E163 to FAW is 35,000 yuan;
The ex-factory price of the 150kW four-cylinder diesel engine XH4E204 is 45,000 yuan.
This pricing is much higher than the ex-factory price of domestic diesel engines of the same power, and slightly lower than the imported diesel engines of the same power.
First Automobile Manufacturing Plant has scheduled Xinghai Group's diesel engines to be mainly used in light trucks. Currently, it has only booked a few diesel engines for assembly and testing. If they pass the test, it will then proceed to large-scale purchases.
The cost of the engine accounts for a large proportion of the total vehicle cost. Generally speaking, the engine accounts for about 15% of the total price of the vehicle.
However, this is only a rough average, and the actual proportion may vary depending on the specific model and its manufacturing process.
Some are less than 10%, and some may account for 50%.
Based on the ex-factory price of Xinghai Group's diesel engines, the engine accounts for more than 30% of the total vehicle price.
For trucks, if they are particularly fuel-efficient, for example, if they travel 100,000 kilometers, using Xinghai Group's diesel engines can save more than 20% compared to domestic diesel engines, and they can also save a lot of money.
The current price of diesel is less than two thousand yuan. The displacement of XH4E163 is 3.5L, and the fuel consumption is more than ten liters per 100 kilometers.
Therefore, after a truck has traveled 20,000 to 300,000 kilometers, it can save 10,000 yuan in fuel costs by using the XH4E163 engine, which can make up for the higher cost than other domestic diesel engines.
If oil prices are higher, the advantages of Xinghai Group's diesel engines will become even more obvious.
A few years ago, the price of diesel was less than one yuan. In still earlier years, when fuel was supplied by ticket, the price was even cheaper.
At the same time, the noise and vibration are lower, making it more comfortable to drive.
As for quality issues, it’s hard to say. It needs to be verified by driving for several years.
But based on the above advantages alone, automobile manufacturers are willing to cooperate with Xinghai Group.
Xinghai Group’s high pricing also gives domestic diesel engine manufacturers a way to survive.
Since Xinghai Group's diesel engines were put on the market, domestic industry leaders have been uneasy. After learning about Xinghai Group's pricing, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, several state-owned enterprises will have no way to survive, and they may have to sue Xinghai Group for technological monopoly.
At that time, it will not be the Xinghai Group that has the final say whether the technology will be made public or not.
At least in this era, private enterprises do not have a high say.
If in 20 years we cannot fight, we will deserve it, and the government will definitely not intervene.
Several major domestic diesel engine manufacturers will not purchase the technology license from Xinghai Group for the time being. Instead, they will first buy Xinghai Group's diesel engines and dismantle them for analysis to see if they can learn from them and improve their own diesel engines.
It is a good thing to be able to improve, so there is no need to purchase the technology license from Xinghai Group.
Of course, they also know that it is not that simple to break through the Xinghai Group's technology. It involves many complex technologies and processes.
A few days later, the Shanghai International Industrial Exhibition came to an end.
Xinghai Group received more than 700 million yuan in orders and contracts at this exhibition, 200 million yuan more than last year.
Among them, the export order contract value is approximately US$30 million.
Fang Bai was busy at the exhibition for eight days and did not go to the company to handle matters.
After resting at home for a day, I came to the company the next day.
After arriving at the company, I found many new faces. I was a little cautious when I saw him, but I still greeted him respectfully: "Hello, Chairman!"
"Hello!"
Fang Bai nodded with a smile and left.
The people who just greeted Fang Bai were two graduates from Fu D. They had never seen Fang Bai in person. They were startled when they saw Fang Bai for the first time, and then quickly responded and said hello.
"We should have said hello correctly, right?"
"Probably not. He is wearing a suit and leather tie. He is handsome, young, and has this temperament. His walking pace is completely different. No one in the company is like this."
"Yes. Seeing the chairman smiling and nodding, it seems to be right. It scares me to death." A new female employee patted her chest and exhaled.
"Me too, I never thought that someone younger than us would be afraid of him, hey."
The two new employees whispered to each other and quickly left the building.
Fang Bai went back to the office to handle matters. In the afternoon, HR manager Lai Xia reported that all new employees had arrived and asked him when he would be free and whether he would like to hold a new employee meeting to meet the new employees.
This year, 1,080 graduates came, as well as some employees recruited from the society, for on-the-job training.
Fang Bai thought for a while and decided that it would be better to meet him. He expressed his respect for the new employees and said, "When the training starts tomorrow afternoon, you can meet me, just for a while. Don't waste too much of everyone's time."
Lai Xia nodded respectfully: "Okay, let me make arrangements. Except for the graduates of Jiaotong University, the other new employees have never seen you. They are very much looking forward to seeing you."
"Haha, maybe you are afraid of seeing me." Fang Bai smiled, picked up the tea and took a sip.
"That's not true. I just want to show off in front of you."
Fang Bai asked: "By the way, how do you solve the problem of schooling for the children of employees' families? The number of employees in our headquarters is increasing. We must find ways to solve the problem of schooling for the children of employees. We make money, but the children's education is not good, and the gain outweighs the gain." ah."
"The primary and secondary schools are in nearby primary and secondary schools, and high schools can only be studied in the hometown. The district government is also working hard to solve the education problem of corporate children and is building new schools. In this regard, the local government has done a better job, and the chairman does not have to worry."
"Oh, that's it. Try to solve the employee's household registration issue, or make it a top priority for employees. I think that with the rapid growth of Shanghai's population, it will strictly control the foreign population's application for household registration."
It is a bit difficult to settle in Shanghai now, but it will not be as difficult as twenty or thirty years from now. It will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Fang Bai does not need to settle in Shanghai. He can settle wherever he wants. He does not need to consider the schooling of his children in the future.
Lai Xia agreed: "Yes, this is related to the issue of children's settlement and schooling."
"Your child is taking the college entrance examination today. How are his results?"
"I just finished the exam not long ago and the results haven't come out yet. I guess it's just an undergraduate degree."
"Oh, if you pass the undergraduate qualifications, I can recommend you to go to Jiaotong University. If you don't pass the qualifications, you can only go to Shanghai for an ordinary undergraduate or junior college."
Lai Xia was pleasantly surprised: "Ah, Chairman, is this appropriate? Doesn't it make you owe Jiaotong University a big favor?"
“Our company donates so much money to Tsinghua University every year, so two or three places a year is nothing.
We can only talk about this kind of privilege in private and cannot make it public. If you send it in, you can only say it is a self-financed student, but the graduation certificate is the same.
If he fails the exam and fails to graduate, he has only himself to blame.
Every middle- and senior-level leader of the group can have an opportunity. If you have two children, think clearly about which one to leave. "Fang Bai smiled disapprovingly. Once your social status reaches a certain level, you must have privileges.
His sister is also taking the college entrance examination this year and will either get into Fu D or SJTU. He hasn't told her about this yet.
Lai Xia was extremely grateful and bowed deeply to Fang Bai: "Thank you, Chairman! Thank you very much. I will go back and discuss it with my family."
She was worried to death about studying for her children.
Lai Xia chatted with Fang Bai for a while, and then left the office excitedly. After returning home in the evening, she would discuss it with her husband.
After Fang Bai finished handling his affairs, female secretary Meng Yu knocked on the door and came in, bringing him newspapers he had chosen for him and two speech drafts that he might use.
Fang Bai nodded approvingly, and Meng Yu left the office slightly uneasy.
As Fang Bai's secretary, he has to do a lot of things, such as document processing, meeting preparation, records, business travel planning, information collection, plan writing, file management, etc. Pay special attention to Fang Bai's living and working habits.
During the past few days of the exhibition, Xu Kun followed the chairman, and the two worked together to help the chairman handle chores.
The group is busy with affairs, the chairman has many things to do, and their secretary also has a heavy workload.
