Reborn Industrial Tycoon

Chapter 358 The Eight Immortals Cross the Sea and Show Their Magical Powers (Second Update)

The general manager of a traffic engineering company is named Zhuang Baoguo. He once served as an engineering soldier when he was young, and even went to support Africa in the 1960s.

The Transportation Engineering Corporation had previously purchased a batch of Type 40 loaders from a heavy machinery factory, so Zhuang Baoguo and Ding Youliang were old acquaintances.

It is relatively easy to make an appointment for a dinner when old friends meet. On the day Ding Youliang arrived, Zhuang Baoguo hosted a banquet for Ding Youliang.

While they were chatting, Ding Youliang finally got down to business: "Mr. Zhuang, the fifty loaders your company purchased this time should be for the expansion project of the G104 National Highway, right?"

Zhuang Baoguo nodded: "Brother, this matter is not a secret. The provincial road plan was announced last year. The expansion of the G104 national highway is just an appetizer. There are still several projects to come. In fact, it is only

It can be regarded as an appetizer! The real meal is the construction of the provincial section of the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway!

The Beijing-Shanghai Expressway is the main transportation artery in the northern region of our country, and its importance is self-evident! Now that the Beijing-Tianjin section and the Jiangsu-Shanghai section have been opened to traffic, and the construction of the section in southern Jiangsu has also begun, our province cannot lag behind. Now

The planning has been done, and construction can start as soon as the funds are received!"

Ding Youliang immediately raised his glass, pretended to be toasting, and said, "The Beijing-Shanghai Expressway is a big piece of meat. Whether you can eat this piece of meat depends on Mr. Zhuang's care!"

"Care is beyond the question, the key is that the quality of your products is excellent! Of course, the quality of the loaders from your Qinghe Heavy Machinery Factory is still trustworthy!"

Zhuang Baoguo changed his voice and continued: "But today is different from the past. In the past, it was a planned economy. When purchasing engineering equipment, we had to report to our superiors. After our superiors approved the note, we would take the note to pick up the equipment.

Nowadays, in the market economy, the power to purchase equipment has been delegated to enterprises. In order to make the procurement process more transparent and eliminate the phenomenon of secret operations, open bidding must be carried out!

This is a public bidding process. The whole process is relatively transparent. Although I am the general manager of the engineering company, I have to follow the rules. Even if I want to help you, it is not easy!"

After Zhuang Baoguo finished speaking, he looked at Ding Youliang with a half-smile.

Zhuang Baoguo's words are very technical. "Not easy" does not mean "completely impossible". It depends on Ding Youliang's understanding.

Ding Youliang is also a smart man, he instantly understood what Zhuang Baoguo meant.

Ding Youliang lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Zhuang, do you think we should follow the old rules? Is this appropriate?"

Ding Youliang said, stretched out three fingers and made an "OK" gesture.

Seeing this gesture, Zhuang Baoguo smiled slightly, and then said: "Brother, to be honest, the loaders from your factory are definitely of the highest quality in our province! Even in public bidding, your factory's products can win the bid.

.Other loader factories in the province are just studying with the prince!"

…

Early in the morning, as soon as Zou Jianshe walked into the yard of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, he saw a brand-new Mercedes parked under the tree at the gate.

"Why is there a Mercedes-Benz? Which company supplied the car? It's too ostentatious!" Zou Jianshe frowned.

There will definitely be no Mercedes-Benz cars distributed by government agencies. Not to mention that this car exceeds the standard and is eye-catching when driven out, so those who buy Mercedes-Benz must be from enterprises.

Those who come to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission for business must all be state-owned enterprises. According to the car distribution standards of state-owned enterprises, it should not be equipped with a Daben. Generally, if you have an Audi, it is considered a high-end car.

When Zou Jianshe saw this Mercedes-Benz, he instinctively thought it was a leader of a state-owned enterprise. He suddenly felt a little unhappy and thought that he would have to check carefully later to find out who was so bold as to be equipped with such a luxury car.

At this moment, a young man in his twenties got out of the Daben. Zou Jianshe didn't pay attention and thought he was the driver.

"This driver looks familiar!" Zou Jianshe thought to himself.

The next second, Zou Jianshe suddenly remembered that he had actually met this young "driver".

"He is Li Weidong from Qinghe Loader Factory! Why is he here!" Zou Jianshe suddenly realized that a debt collector was here!

Li Weidong also saw Zou Jianshe. He immediately came to Zou Jianshe with two gift boxes.

"Director Zou, I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts. I just sold two boxes of black bean sauce. You can go back and mix it with sesame oil to eat, or stew mackerel or ribs!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

"Chairman Li, what do you mean by this? You are blatantly giving gifts to government agencies. Aren't you afraid that others will say you are paying bribes?" Zou Jianshe said with a straight face.

"It's just a few bottles of black bean sauce, which is equivalent to pickles. Who have you ever seen bribe someone with pickles? Are they not afraid of trapping the leaders?" Li Weidong said with a smile.

Zou Jianshe looked at the box and asked doubtfully: "Is this really black bean sauce?"

"It's really tempeh. This year's new products have new production dates!" Li Weidong nodded.

"Open it and take a look!" Zou Jianshe said cautiously.

Li Weidong smiled helplessly, saying to himself that Zou Jianshe was really cautious, for fear that he would sell his sheep's head as dog meat.

Li Weidong opened the box, and there was indeed a small can of tempeh inside.

Zou Jianshe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was not valuable gifts or cash, but actually black beans.

"Fortunately, there is really tempeh inside, otherwise I will kick you out immediately!" Zou Jianshe said, taking out a small can from the box, and then said: "Even if it is tempeh, I can't just accept it.

I’ll take the jar home and eat it, and send the rest back to the canteen!”

"Director Zou is really honest and upright." Li Weidong couldn't help but praise.

"Chairman Li, don't give me a high hat. I still have a meeting. If you want to see me for anything, you'd better tell me quickly!" Zou Jianshe's tone was very rude.

When faced with a debt collector, a normal person would be eager to chase the person away as quickly as possible, so naturally they would not use any polite words.

"Director Zou, you also know that our factory was originally a state-owned enterprise, and now it has been transformed into a joint-stock enterprise. It is also a special case in enterprise reform. A newly restructured small business like ours needs the care and support of leaders at all levels.

Supported.”

Li Weidong paused and then said: "The traffic engineering company of the Department of Transportation wants to purchase 50 loaders. The bidding notice has been posted. Our factory also plans to participate in the bidding, so I would like to ask Director Zou for help, care and

Support small businesses like ours."

"How is the quality of your loaders? If the quality of your products is poor and the progress of the project is delayed, I will also be responsible." Zou Jianshe asked.

"Please rest assured, leaders, that our newly developed QZ40 loader adopts a large amount of Russian technology and is definitely top-notch among domestic 40-type loaders," Li Weidong said.

"First-class level, I'm afraid you are just selling melons and bragging about yourself!" Zou Jianshe snorted coldly.

Li Weidong said: "Leader, if you don't believe it, you can find an expert in this field to verify it. Moreover, when the traffic engineering company invites bids, it also needs to test the product. Whether the product quality is good or not, the traffic engineering company

An evaluation will be given.”

Zou Jianshe nodded: "Well, as long as the quality of your loaders is similar to that of other brands, I will find a way to let the traffic engineering company give priority to purchasing your products."

…

On the construction site, there are seven 40-type excavators. These excavators come from different manufacturers and are all participating in the traffic engineering company's bidding.

At this time, seven excavators are undergoing performance testing by professionals.

Zhuang Baoguo looked at the test site calmly. In his opinion, this kind of test was just a formality, and the outcome of the bidding was already determined.

In terms of product performance, the AX40C loader from Qinghe Heavy Machinery Factory is definitely the best.

The loader master responsible for the test got off one loader and walked onto another loader, while someone next to him was recording the test situation.

After a while, the test ended and the results were sent to Zhuang Baoguo.

"Which loader has the best test data?" Zhuang Baoguo asked directly about the results.

The tester answered: "There are two loaders with similar performance. One is the AX40C loader from Qinghe Heavy Machinery Factory, and the other is the QZ40 loader from Qinghe Loader Factory."

Zhuang Baoguo was stunned, and then asked: "You mean, the AX40C loader of Qinghe Heavy Machinery Factory is not unique?"

The tester nodded: "Both loaders are top-notch in the country."

"Then there must be some differences, right?" Zhuang Baoguo asked next.

The tester answered: "As for the difference, the AX40C loader uses an engine from Shangchai, which may be more stable in terms of power, while the QZ40 uses an engine from Weichai, which may not be as stable as Shangchai's.

However, the hydraulic system of QZ40 is better, and their hydraulic valve adjustment is very good, which can be regarded as the top in the country!"

"So of these two loaders, which one is better?" Zhuang Baoguo asked eagerly.

The tester thought for a while and replied: "From a practical point of view, it's really hard to tell the difference."

"Is it hard to tell the difference?" Zhuang Baoguo frowned.

"This QZ40 loader is actually on par with the AX40C loader from the heavy machinery factory. This is Cheng Yaojin who came out of nowhere! I hope there will be no changes."
