Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

With Hong Tao's intervention, the Hainan Iron and Steel Incident was elevated to a new level in a strange way. Liao Tingxuan, who was in charge of the Hainan Iron and Steel joint venture project, was the first to take advantage of the situation and was actually interviewed by the Institutional Reform Office...

Liao Tingxuan, who was innocently accused, came out of the structural reform office and went directly to the person in charge of the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry. He truthfully reported that the Northern Provincial Metallurgical Department was obsessed with power struggles, which had led to Haigang's failure to introduce advanced equipment and technology.

The leader in charge of Thunder Fury immediately made a call to the Northern Province Metallurgical Department, and scolded Zhang Jiwen, director of the Northern Province Metallurgical Department, bloody: "Zhang Jiwen! Can you still do this? Let me see. You are so confused! The Ministry of Metallurgical Industry was interviewed by the Office of Economic Reform because of Haigang, which undermined the established policy of reform and opening up and indirectly affected Norinco's export orders worth one billion US dollars. Which crime can you, Zhang Jiwen, bear? What’s the name of that Hainan Iron and Steel Chairman?”

"The new chairman of Haigang is Yao Qiang. He used to be a deputy director of the Planning Department of the Provincial Metallurgical Department. His business ability is still very strong. It may be that he did not understand the policies thoroughly, which led to some unnecessary misunderstandings. I will go there in person right away." Go to Haigang and understand the truth of the matter before making a decision!" Zhang Jiwen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said in a respectful tone.

"Make another decision? Zhang Jiwen! What are you thinking about? How long has it been and you still want to protect him? You should think about yourself first!" The supervisor hung up the phone with his anger still lingering.

Zhang Jiwen knew that this time he kicked the steel plate, so why did he dare to neglect it?After Zhang Jiwen put down the phone, he went through his direct connections in the hall as quickly as possible, and finally chose Wu Dongsheng, director of the production department, and drove to Haicheng with him.

On the way to Haicheng, Zhang Jiwen also gave up the illusion of controlling Haigang and told Wu Dongsheng to be patient for the time being and cooperate with Zhiyuan to make Haigang bigger and stronger first, and then make plans in the future.

After seeing Zhang Jiwen, Yao Qiang was still in the dark. When he saw the livid Zhang Jiwen said with a smile: "Director Zhang, why are you here? You didn't notify me in advance so I could get people ready. !”

Zhang Jiwen snorted coldly and said calmly: "Take us to Gao Hongming's office first! You should also do the handover work and return to the provincial department for another appointment. Director Wu Dongsheng will temporarily take over your position at Hainan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. Position..."

"Director Zhang! Why? What happened?" Yao Qiang asked with a surprised look on his face.

"We'll talk about your business later. Take us to see Gao Hongming first!" Zhang Jiwen did not directly answer Yao Qiang's question, but frowned at Yao Qiang and ordered.

Yao Qiang knew that it was irreversible, so he could only lead Zhang Jiwen and others to the general manager's office of Haigang with a depressed expression.

Gao Hongming didn't expect things to progress so quickly, and looked at Yao Qiang and his group in astonishment.

Yao Qiang gave a brief introduction to both parties. After a few pleasantries, Zhang Jiwen got straight to the point: "Mr. Gao, after research and decision by the Provincial Metallurgical Department, Comrade Wu Dongsheng will temporarily succeed Comrade Yao Qiang as the chairman of Haicheng Steel Plant. , Comrade Yao Qiang was transferred back to the provincial department and has another appointment..."

After Zhang Jiwen said some more words of encouragement and polite words, he hurriedly left Haicheng without even staying to eat.

Gao Hongming immediately reached a consensus with Wu Dongsheng on the purchase of powder metallurgy equipment, and Zhiyuan International purchased it on his behalf.

As early as two months ago, Zhiyuan International had negotiated with SIEMAG on the purchase of powder metallurgy equipment including vertical ball mills, hot and cold presses, vacuum sintering furnaces, etc. All that was left was signing, payment, and delivery. goods……

Haigang is racing against time at an extraordinary speed to regain the lost more than two months.

Fang Wenchang also followed Yang Mo's instructions and reduced the patent licensing fee for high-strength alloy steel from 5% to 3%.

Even so, it still caused serious dissatisfaction among the Chinese management of Hainan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.They couldn't figure out why Zhiyuan Group had to charge such an expensive fee for licensing its own patented technology to Haigang?Didn’t we agree that Zhiyuan would invest in it with technology and capital?

At the factory office meeting, Gao Hongming faced overwhelming doubts and patiently explained: “According to international practice, the licensing fee for this world-leading high-strength alloy steel patented technology will be as high as 6-10%. To develop an advanced Tens of millions of dollars have been spent on research and development in metallurgical technology, and the valuation of these patents held by Zhiyuan in the patent technology market even exceeds the total market value of Haigang!"

No matter what Gao Hongming said, it was useless. Some Haigang management members who were still thinking about planned economy still felt that Gao Hongming was betraying Haigang's interests.

However, this is understandable. In this era, the mainland has only begun to gradually realize the importance of patented technology, but has not yet established a complete intellectual property system. The status quo of technology sharing within the same system for so many years determines the height of their awareness.

Gao Hongming did not follow them this time. Instead, he signed the patent authorization letter amidst everyone's doubts.

However, the doubts did not last long. In the high-strength bearing steel supply agreement signed by Hainan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. with the 617 Factory, the price was beyond their understanding, which completely broke the doubts these days. It turns out that steel can still be sold at such a high price. Sky-high price?

Gu Haitian's application report for Haigang's basic materials laboratory was also approved. After all, the real orders from Factory 617 were placed there. This was a large order that Haigang had never dared to think of before.

Luo Binghui felt like a spinning top that was constantly spinning and couldn't stop at all. Before Zhiyuan Heavy Machinery's production was completely on track, he boarded another flight to Yanjing.

In the western suburbs of Yanjing, in the banquet hall of the guest house of the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry.

Liao Tingxuan stood up and raised the glass in his hand and said: Mr. Luo, I will punish myself with a drink first. We did not think carefully about Haigang's matter, which caused many delays in Haigang's work..."

Luo Binghui also quickly picked up the wine glass and stood up and said: "Director Liao is serious. We all have no experience in this area. It is normal to take some detours. Just like your senior leader said, everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones!"

Liao Tingxuan drank the wine in the glass and said boldly: "Mr. Luo, don't say anything. I will apologize to you for this glass of wine on behalf of the Northern Provincial Metallurgical Department!"

Luo Binghui also drank it all and said sincerely: "We are also responsible for this. Gao Hongming is arrogant and refuses to ask for help from the group company when he encounters difficulties at work. If we had known earlier, Director Liao and Our personal friend, Mr. Yang, will definitely help and coordinate, and we won’t go through such a big circle and let the General Armament Department come forward..."

After the two of them were polite to each other, Liao Tingxuan got straight to the point and said, "I specially invited Mr. Luo to come to Yanjing this time because the plan I discussed with Mr. Yang in Tokyo last time has some clues..."
