Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 646 The ruins left by Brilliance

…

"On the surface, Ningbo-Bo is indeed a good choice for building a factory. There are the best deep-water ports in the country, and there are many auto parts companies in the surrounding area. The Ningbo-Bo municipal government also showed strong interest and granted Brilliance 3,000 at one time. The sale price per mu of land is only 50,000 yuan per mu. What makes Yang Rong even more tempted is that he is allowed to invest in the Ningbo-Bo Sea-Crossing Bridge, which is said to bring tens of billions of cash flow.”

"Yang Rong and Brilliance's plans are not inaccurate, and strategic decisions are closely linked. But he ignored the attitude of the Fengtian Municipal Government. Fengtian has always regarded the automobile industry as the most important pillar industry in the province, and has never given up on becoming a' ' Huaxia Detroit's plan; in the past ten years, they have been responsive to Brilliance's needs and spared no effort to support him, but not for him to 'marry a good girl'. In the words of a Fengtian city leader at the time, 'For Brilliance, we even bought underwear acridine The money has been advanced'. So, when he was going to put the Rover project in Ningbo, instead of Fengtian, the contradiction between the two sides intensified."

"In order to persuade First Boston to be listed in the U.S., Yang Rong once put the ownership of Brilliance under the banner of a 'China Education Development Foundation', which is a public welfare organization and a state unit, so from In this respect, Brilliance is a state-owned enterprise.”

"When Brilliance and Fengtian Municipal Government cooperated well before, both parties tacitly avoided this issue. But when the conflict intensified, due to the nature of Brilliance's state-owned enterprise, in June 2002, Brilliance Group was dismissed from the positions of chairman and president of the board of directors. He cashed out his shares in Hong Kong and went to the United States."

"After Yang Rong was out of the game, his four assistants, Su Qiang, known as the 'Four King Kong', took over as President and CEO of Brilliance China; Wu Xiaoan took over as Chairman of Brilliance China, and Hong Xing and He Tao served as Brilliance China Vice-Chairman and He Tao respectively. Chief Financial Officer. Then all the projects of Brilliance Group were concentrated in Fengtian, the Rover project in Ningbo and Bo, Sanjiang Renault in Xiaogan, Hubei Province, and a large number of parts suppliers were all abandoned. Brilliance lost more than 500 million as a result. Huaxia Coin."

"After that, with the background of China's car sales blowout, Brilliance went downhill. In 2003, China's car sales fell to 13,400 units, a year-on-year decrease of 15%, and an operating loss of 600 million Chinese yuan. Gold Cup 'Sea Lion' The sales volume also fell rapidly to 61,000 units, a year-on-year decrease of 18%, losing the national sales champion that had been maintained for 5 years. None of the five golden flowers bloomed during the Yang Rong period. In addition, according to the news just received, Brilliance Su Qiang, Wu Xiaogang started to sell the Brilliance stock in his hand, and the stock prices of Brilliance A-shares, Brilliance Jinbei, and Chinese and Western Pharmaceuticals all plummeted.

After listening, Guo Shouyun slapped his mouth.

"It was originally a good pot of soup, but it was ruined by a few mice!" After a pause, "What do you think of this person Yang Rong?"

"Super brave, good at corporate strategy, and principled at critical moments. This can be seen from his refusal to cooperate with Delong and Zhongke, and to give up using bank loans to speculate in stocks. In this era of bookmakers rampant, there are few similar Brilliance. Such a big group that sticks to the bottom line. However, this person is too immature in politics to deal with the relationship with the government, and finally caused the final collapse of Huachen. In addition, he is too obsessed with power. If he and Fengtian in 2001 After the conflict between the city government broke out, if they were not eager to use equity swaps to turn Huachen from a public company into a private company, I am afraid he would not end up leaving the United States, and now he has been arrested by the Fengtian city government globally for economic crimes."

Guo Shouyun nodded, and then sighed: "If you accidentally lose everything!"

"Boss, the plane is about to land!"

Wang Jue came over and reminded.

"understood."

After answering with a sound, after fasting the seat belt, the plane began to lower its altitude, and it didn't take long to land at Ningbo~Bo Airport.

Originally, Guo Shouyun planned to come here by car, but now the Ningbo-Bo sea-crossing bridge has not yet opened. It takes more than four hours to walk from the magic capital to here, which is a waste of time.

After getting off the plane, Wu Xiaojing, who arrived here ahead of time, walked over. Under her leadership, everyone drove to an industrial area on the outskirts of Ningbo and Bo. As one of the core cities in the Yangtze River Delta region and with good port conditions, there is naturally no shortage of factories here. However, surrounded by many factories roaring with machines, there was a vast ruin surrounded by blue iron sheets.

"It's here, it's here!"

After Guo Shouyun got out of the car, he looked at the reinforced concrete frame that stretched several hundred meters in front of him. Surrounded by large weeds, he looked like a giant with deep mud feet, standing alone under the setting sun, Zhang Lei couldn't help but feel a bit of desolation. .

From the place where they got off the bus to the factory building, there was a hardened concrete road, which prevented them from going to the dense grass that was taller than the waist and infested with snakes, rats and mosquitoes.

Stepping on dead branches and fallen leaves and walking to the factory building, although human and animal dung, as well as domestic garbage and dead branches and leaves are scattered on the ground, the continuous reinforced concrete structure with a height of more than ten meters and a length of hundreds of meters can not help but marvel at the grandeur of this place.

"This should be the factory built after Brilliance and Rover cooperated?" Zhang Lei asked after looking around.

"Not bad! According to the original design scale, it can accommodate 6 production lines with an annual output of 300,000 cars. Unfortunately, with Yang Rong's departure, after Brilliance's withdrawal of capital, the Ningbo-Bo municipal government has been looking for other institutions willing to take over, but I haven't been able to find a suitable car company for the past two years, and this place is deserted. I also noticed it when I was looking at Rover's information."

"After two years of sun and rain, can these factories still be used?" Zhang Lei said.

"I have asked Wu Xiaojing to take people to do a test in advance. Brilliance's people use solid materials, and these factories can continue to be used!"

Zhang Lei nodded, "The boss plans to put the site of the Red Star Motor Company here?"

"Not bad! Half of Hunan Torch's auto parts factories are located around the capital, and putting the Hongxing Automobile Factory here can also save costs to the greatest extent. And with the foundation before Brilliance, we can build 3 production lines within a year. The remaining land also leaves us enough room for expansion. In addition, we acquired Rover, they are also familiar with the place, which reduces the preliminary preparation work.”

"The boss's considerations are indeed very thorough!" Zhang Lei nodded and said.

"What do you think of letting Yang Rong be the CEO of Red Star Auto Group?" Guo Shouyun asked suddenly.

"Yang Rong? Boss, now he is carrying a wanted warrant? How dare he go back to China?"

"If he wasn't convinced and complained after being kicked out of Huachen, he wouldn't have caused trouble. This is a complete farce. If he bowed his head and admitted his mistakes, he might be able to get rid of his troubles."

"Boss, you are an American. You may not be very familiar with the situation of Huaxia. It is not like the United States, where money can solve everything. In addition, if the Huachen Group is doing well now, maybe your previous plan may still be realized. But now the Brilliance Group is going downhill, Yang Rong is the biggest object of anger, and he can't be forgiven no matter what!"

Guo Shouyun nodded and smiled bitterly: "I take it for granted!" After sighing, "I originally planned to use Yang Rong's successful experience in the Jinbei 'Sea Lion' to revitalize the 150,000 light vehicles of Sanjiang Renault that we took over. The production capacity of commercial vehicles seems impossible now."

"Boss, you can actually hire Yang Rong as a consultant for the Red Star Auto Group. I think with your influence in the American business community, he will not refuse!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "I've been thinking about who should be the CEO of Red Star Auto Group these days. If Yang Rong doesn't work, who do you think is suitable?"

"Bruituo!" Zhang Lei said after thinking about it.

"Why?" Guo Shouyun asked, narrowing his eyes slightly.

"When sorting out Delong's information and discussing the Delong Group's reorganization plan later, this Brazilian can get to the core of almost every suggestion or question, and his eyes are sharp, which shows that he has rich experience and outstanding talent in business operations. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Moreover, after getting along for more than a month, I found that this person is very thoughtful. He only gives advice after careful consideration of everything. He is prudent in life and is an excellent enterprise manager. The business environment in Brazil is quite similar to that of China, where he can successfully manage Bolang Beer, and I believe he can also show his strength in China!"

Guo Shouyun nodded and pondered for a while, "But he has no experience in the automotive industry."

"Yang Rong was also a layman in the corporate industry at the beginning, but didn't he also make the Brilliance Group's management successful?! Before becoming the CEO of Bolang Beer, Brito had been an investment banker in Breco, but after entering the industrial field , didn't it also succeed?!" After a pause, he looked at Guo Shouyun and smiled, "The boss tried so hard to dig him out of Brecco's hands, do you still plan to let it go?"

Guo Shouyun smiled.

"In the beginning, I just admired Brito's talent and Brecco's business philosophy, and wanted him to help us deal with Delong's problems, and then train the executives of various companies. Now it seems that it is necessary to put He stayed."

"Then the boss has to think carefully about what reason to use. According to my contact with him these days, Brito is not someone who can easily persuade him!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, and after taking Zhang Lei to earn a lap here, led by Wu Xiaojing, he arrived at the seat of Ningbo-Bo municipal government. After discussing the acquisition of the former factory of Brilliance Rover and the follow-up investment matters, after initialing the contract, he flew back to the magic capital with Zhang Lei.
