King of Industry

  Chapter 557 The only variable is gone

  In the conference room, after Zhao Guoyang explained his point of view in a simple and clear manner, even the three leaders of ** Province had no doubts about setting up the headquarters of the new joint venture company in ** City.

   Seeing this scene, the leaders of ** City were naturally overjoyed.

  Mayor Huang nodded cheerfully to Zhu Yiming and said, "Old Zhu, thank you, Comrades Xinmin and Comrades Jianlong, for your understanding."

   "I hope that our two places can work together, with the strong support of the superior leaders, to put this plan of Guoyang into practice..."

  Although Zhu Yiming agreed with Zhao Guoyang's point of view just now, he was still somewhat depressed.

  Hearing Huang Zhigang's confident words at this time, he said in a low voice: "Mayor Huang, Researcher Zhao's plan is certainly impeccable, but we don't know whether things will go as he predicted."

  Zhu Yiming turned his head to look at Zhao Guoyang, and asked with some concern: "Researcher Zhao, are you confident about the sale of shares in 'Skoda Auto'?"

  After Zhu Gaoguan asked this question, everyone immediately became nervous.

  Indeed, everyone has discussed for a long time, don't let the "Skoda Automobile Company" not want to sell shares in the end, then the fun will be great.

   Facing the stares of these bigwigs, Zhao Guoyang just smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Leader Zhu, leaders, I am quite confident about whether 'Skoda Company' has plans to sell shares."

   Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang looked at Yao Gang and said: "Leader Yao, according to my analysis of the current economic and political situation in Czechoslovakia, this country's brand-new economic system is facing a severe test."

   "Some of the large industrial enterprises in the country are also suffering from various problems. As the face of this country, Skoda must be kept in Czechoslovakia."

   "Therefore, I speculate that with the support of the Czechoslovakian government, it is very likely to seek a new partner to get out of the predicament." Zhao Guoyang explained calmly.

   After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Yao Gang said in a puzzled voice: "Guoyang, your analysis of the political and economic situation in Czechoslovakia is completely correct, and I admire it very much."

"But there is one thing that I don't understand. Even if Skoda is facing difficulties, the partner it is looking for should be an auto giant like Volkswagen Group, right? Even if we are willing to pay for their shares, they will agree ?"

  Listening to Yao Gang's question, the bosses in the conference room nodded in agreement.

   Zhao Guoyang heard the words, but smiled indifferently: "Leader Yao, you can rest assured about this. As long as our domestic companies are willing to pay, the 'Skoda Automobile Company' will definitely not set up any obstacles."

  After Zhao Guoyang said this confidently, Director Jia of the Management Bureau of Inherent Assets over there disagreed a little.

  He frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "Guoyang, what you said is a bit arbitrary, right? Why do you conclude that people from the 'Skoda Automobile Company' will accept it?"

  Because he is the nominal leader of Zhao Guoyang's company, Jia Mingyuan did not call Zhao Guoyang "Researcher Zhao" like other bosses, but called him by his first name.

After the boss asked this question, Zhao Guoyang raised his eyebrows and smiled, and explained: "Director Jia, before answering your question, let me tell you about the country of Czechoslovakia. and its national character."

   "Uh..." Jia Mingyuan froze for a moment, then subconsciously nodded.

  Under the watchful eyes of a group of big shots, Zhao Guoyang started talking with his quite individual voice.

   "Maybe everyone has a certain understanding of the country of Czechoslovakia. It is an ancient country with a history of civilization for thousands of years and has made important contributions to Western culture."

Zhao Guoyang stretched out a finger, gestured on the table, and explained: "Because it is located in the center of Europe, its strategic location is extremely important. For more than a thousand years, Czechoslovakia has continuously contributed spiritual civilization to mankind. plagued by war."

  “After experiencing these encounters, the unique national character of the Czech nation has gradually formed—love art very much, love life very much, stand aloof from the world, be humorous and tenacious.”

"Compared with its neighbors, the superpower's national character of self-confidence and reserve—and the ensuing rebelliousness and heroism, the Czechoslovaks seem to be low-key and humble about everything. , gentle..."

  In the conference room, Zhao Guoyang's fascinating explanation attracted the attention of the audience.

  Whether it is Fang Xuesen, Jia Mingyuan or Hong Wenqing, these big shots are leaders who are well-educated and talented.

  Although they are not cadres on the diplomatic front, they also have a relatively in-depth understanding of the national conditions of Czechoslovakia, an important country in Eastern Europe.

  As for Yao Gang, a professional, he knows more.

  However, what these people who have been here did not expect is that this young Zhao Guoyang can also give such an accurate analysis of this, which is really amazing.

   While the bosses in the conference room were secretly sighing, Zhao Guoyang's speech continued.

He cleared his throat, and then said: "If the history of the superpower in Eastern Europe is marked by 'sharp' and 'dignified' struggles, then the ecology of the Czechoslovaks is based on silent struggles. and stoic 'bluntness'."

  "Humble background has given Czechs and Novaks a habit of laughing at themselves and being able to resist stress. More importantly, they have absolutely no intention of discriminating against anyone else."

  Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang changed the topic and returned to the original topic: "It is precisely because of the Czechoslovaks that they have such character traits."

   "So, as long as it is confirmed that Skoda Auto is really going to sell its shares, I personally fully believe that our acquisition plan can be implemented smoothly..."

  Zhao Guoyang's resolute words made all the bosses in the audience look radiant.

  Jia Mingyuan, who had questioned him before, shook his head and sighed bitterly: "Guoyang, isn't this too exaggerated for you? With your knowledge, you are probably qualified to enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"

  Hearing this, Yao Gang rolled his eyes.

  He met Jia Mingyuan's eyes maliciously, and said cheerfully: "Director Jia, I completely agree with your opinion."

   "As long as you open your mouth, let Hongda Machinery Factory open Guoyang, and I will immediately ask Minister Huo to pick him up..."

  When Yao Gang said this with a shy face, Jia Mingyuan rolled his eyes at him angrily.

   "Old Yao, do you think I'm stupid? Although Guoyang is only a state-owned enterprise under our inherent assets management bureau, he is also registered in our bureau."

   "Even if he is no longer in Hongda Machinery Factory, he is still under the control of our bureau. You, don't wishful thinking!"

  Jia Mingyuan's words caused everyone in the conference room to laugh.

  Yao Gang was not angry at all when he was bullied.

  He glanced at Jia Mingyuan with a smile, and then at the innocent Zhao Guoyang. Just as he was about to say a few words to cheer up the atmosphere, the mobile phone on his waist rang.

  The urgent sound of the phone made the meeting room quiet.

  Yao Gang was about to make a confession, and went out to answer the phone. Fang Xuesen, who was next to him, smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on, Lao Yao. There are no outsiders, so you can answer it here."

   "I guess, it must be Lao Huo who called you!"

   Fang Xuesen was fully aware of Yao Gang’s previous contact with Huo Zhenlin, and also knew that the other party was asking for help from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Xiang knew the exact news from Prague.

  In fact, Fang Xuesen has fully approved Zhao Guoyang's plan deep in his heart since the meeting.

  The only thing he worries about now is whether the news from Prague is good or not.

   Now that Yao Gang's "Big Brother" rang suddenly, Fang Xuesen had a premonition that news from Prague might have arrived.

  Fang Xuesen made this statement, and Yao Gang couldn't go out to answer the phone anymore, so he could only cough, picked up the mobile phone, and pressed the button to connect.

  As soon as the phone was connected, a loud voice came from inside: "Old Yao, I'm Huo Zhenlin!"

  Because the conference room was very quiet, the voice on the phone was clearly heard by everyone.

  As soon as they heard the word "Huo Zhenlin", the big guys showed solemn expressions on their faces.

  Under the attention of a group of people, Yao Gang quickly said to his elder brother: "It's me, the leader!"

   "Well, Lao Yao, you should have arrived in ** City, right?" Huo Zhenlin asked again on the other end of the phone.

   "It's early, I'm having a meeting with Leader Fang and Mayor Huang to study the matter!"

  Yao Gang smiled, and then asked: "By the way, leader. Is there good news for your call?"

   "Well, it's good news!"

  Huo Zhenlin said word by word, "Old Yao, I just received a phone report from the Embassy in Czechoslovakia, Ambassador Lu Shuming..."

   "The situation is the same as that Xiao Comrade Zhao guessed, 'Skoda Automobile' is indeed in contact with several large auto giants, discussing the introduction of foreign investment!"

   "Ah!" Yao Gang almost forgot to answer after hearing this.

  Other people in the meeting room obviously heard the voice from the phone, and for a while, everyone's face was filled with relieved smiles.

   "As expected, that's great!" Huang Zhigang waved his hands vigorously.

  Because of being too excited, the voice of this boss changed a little.

   It's no wonder that this boss lost his composure. After Zhao Guoyang had fully presented the plan of "small fish swallowing big fish" before everyone's eyes, the only variable was "Skoda Automobile Company".

   Now that the only variable has disappeared, Huang Zhigang is naturally very excited.
