King of Industry

  Chapter 713 How about self-recommendation as an 'honorary director'

  After leaving the Ministry of Foreign Trade, Zhao Guoyang went straight to the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry without stopping.

  In the office, Li Kejian, who had been trusted for a long time, saw Zhao Guoyang coming, and greeted him personally.

   After shaking Zhao Guoyang's hand vigorously, Li Kejian said excitedly: "Guoyang, you have really worked hard this time, and you have worked hard!"

   Zhao Guoyang had reported to Mr. Li about the progress made at the Canadian "Bombardier Corporation" long before he left for the United States.

   It can be said that Zhao Guoyang has overfulfilled the task assigned to him by Mr. Li this time - to obtain as much technical information as possible from advanced countries in the aerospace industry.

   Apart from the scheduled visit with "Bombardier Headquarters", he and Calderon, the president of "Bombardier Aerospace Group", also verbally agreed on some technical talent exchanges.

  Mr. Calderon has promised that Zhao Guoyang will be given two to three researchers every year, allowing him to enter the "Bombardier Aerospace Group" aircraft manufacturing company with a low confidentiality level as an intern for three to six months.

   Such a result is even better than obtaining technical information directly for the country and Mr. Li.

   Zhao Guoyang was not too modest about the achievements he had made, but just smiled and said to Li Kejian: "Mr. Li, you have to reserve one of the places for these two or three researchers."

   "Although my "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company" has no plans to set foot in the aerospace industry, there is a possibility that the future cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, I have to prepare in advance for this talent training, so as not to be cramped..."

Hearing Zhao Guoyang's words, Li Kejian nodded to him with a smile, and said in agreement: "I knew you would have this request. Don't worry, I can make the decision on this matter. If there are two places in the future, I will definitely take it." One of your manufacturing companies."

  Zhao Guoyang nodded again and again: "Thank you so much, Mr. Li. By the way, you should have a doctoral candidate in the aerospace industry recommending it, can you...hehe."

  Although Zhao Guoyang didn't speak clearly, Li Kejian certainly understood what he meant right away.

   Obviously, this kid Zhao Guoyang wants to recommend a few talented people to go to his company to expand its territory.

  Li Kejian pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

  He understands the ambition of Zhao Guoyang, a young man, and knows that he has always aimed at revitalizing China's industry.

   But to achieve this goal, there is one word that cannot be avoided, and that is "money".

  In fact, the ability shown by Zhao Guoyang and the industry he has made for various industrial fields of the country are completely worthy of the special financial support given by the state to his enterprises.

  However, the development of the country has just accelerated, and there are many places that need money all over the country. There is definitely no way to make a special opening to help this young man solve the problem of funds. We can only give a certain amount of policy preference.

   What is rare is that this young man not only has a solid industrial foundation, but also has a far-sighted vision and a strong ability to make money.

  In just one year, he has created two companies with considerable profits.

  Let’s not talk about that “Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company” for now, after all, it’s mostly trade; but that “SMS Construction Machinery Group Company” is amazing.

  The information Li Kejian got from his old friend Ji Chongxuan these days, the "Mine Hoist" project of "SMS Company" that he and his students participated in has achieved great success.

   In the past half a month alone, 700 sets of this "mine hoist" have been ordered in the domestic market.

  This amount is already equivalent to the half-year sales volume of Wuyi Heavy Industry, the largest "mine hoist" manufacturer in China last year.

  The whirlwind caused by "SMS Company" has attracted several major mining machinery and equipment manufacturers in China to pay attention to it.

   Several large state-owned enterprises even asked their superiors about the "SMS Company" from the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry.

  Li Kejian himself has received two or three calls in the past two days to inquire about news.

  Aside from being funny, Li Kejian was somewhat relieved.

   Not surprisingly, the "mine hoist" of "SMS Company" must have been led by Zhao Guoyang and did not run away.

  The success of this series of products really shows that Zhao Guoyang, a young man, is not only excellent in mastering theoretical knowledge, but also in practice and product development.

  Old man Li is naturally relieved that the young man he is optimistic about has achieved such an achievement.

Thinking of this, Li Kejian stroked his white beard and said, "Guoyang, I'm very happy that you asked me for someone. To be honest, in the field of aerospace industry, I have supervised quite a few doctoral students. I recommend it to you." Ten or eight are not a problem!"

  Zhao Guoyang had known for a long time that this would be the answer, and he was overjoyed at the moment.

   At this time, Mr. Li said again: "However, I also have a request for recommending these students to you!"

  Zhao Guoyang heard the words, his complexion changed, and he said: "Mr. Li, just ask if you have any requests, and I will never shirk what I can agree to."

  Li Kejian gave a "huh" and said with a half-smile, "Then Guoyang, I'll just say it straight! The doctoral student I recommend to you is temporarily in your company."

   "I'm not going to put pressure on them to bring them back, even after your company actually forms the Aerospace Industry Division."

   "However, if you can really get involved in the aerospace industry within five years, I hope to arrange a group of researchers every year to go to your company for internship..."

   Li Kejian's words were somewhat lacking in confidence, because in this matter, he and the country really took advantage of the young man in front of him.

  Based on his understanding of Zhao Guoyang, if this young man really wants to get involved in the aerospace industry, he can recruit researchers from better universities abroad, not necessarily in China.

   Now if he agrees to these demands of his own, this outstanding young man will be subject to a lot of restrictions, and it doesn't seem to be worthwhile.

   Just when Li Kejian hesitated, wondering whether his request was too high, Zhao Guoyang smiled and said, "Mr. Li, I don't think there is any need for such trouble."

   Li Kejian was taken aback when he heard the words, his eyelids twitched involuntarily.

  Seeing that Mr. Li also showed a nervous look, Zhao Guoyang was secretly amused.

  Of course, he didn't dare to play tricks on Mr. Li, so he coughed and quickly explained: "That's right, I'm going to follow the example of 'Bombardier' ​​and set up a cooperative research laboratory for the aerospace industry."

  "Aerospace Industry Cooperation Research Office?" Hearing this term, Li Kejian was stunned for a while.

  Zhao Guoyang smiled and said: "Yes, Bombardier's aerospace company has independent aerospace industry cooperation research laboratories in France and Samba, which conduct scientific research in different fields."

   "Bombardier and the local government are the partners of this kind of cooperative research laboratory, and each holds half of the shares. Bombardier is responsible for paying for the construction of the research laboratory, and the government is responsible for the land. Talents have been selected from local universities."

"After this kind of cooperation, the technology and products developed by the research laboratory will have the priority of the local government. In addition to applying new technologies to its own products, Bombardier can also sell them to other aerospace companies. Of course, After the sale, the funds still have to be shared equally with the local government..."

After Zhao Guoyang's explanation, Li Kejian nodded without even thinking about it and said, "Okay, okay, this kind of cooperation model is great! In this way, I will talk to Chu Qingshan and Lao Chu from the Ministry of Aeronautics and Astronautics Industry, and let him Find out about this..."

  After Li Kejian finished speaking, Zhao Guoyang responded with a smile.

  The predecessor of the Ministry of Aerospace Industry was the Fifth Research Institute of the Ministry of National Defense. In 1988, the Ministry of Aviation Industry and the Ministry of Aerospace Industry merged to form the Ministry of Aerospace Industry.

  As a leading mechanical expert in China, Mr. Li also served as the director of the Fifth Research Institute for a short time.

  It was only later that he took the initiative to resign because of too many part-time jobs.

   But no matter what, what Mr. Li said in the Fifth Research Institute of the Ministry of National Defense and the current Ministry of Aerospace Industry is very important.

  Zhao Guoyang even suspected that Mr. Li might have communicated with the Ministry of Aeronautics and Astronautics Industry if he was able to talk openly and honestly with him about the cooperation issue.

  Of course, it is also very important for Zhao Guoyang to have the opportunity to cooperate with the Ministry of Aerospace Industry.

  Although the current level of development of the domestic aerospace industry is not high, it is also restricted by various factors such as the Western blockade and the low level of material manufacturing in the aerospace industry.

   As far as talents in the aerospace industry are concerned, China has never been short of talents.

  With Mr. Li as a matchmaker, if his aerospace industry cooperation research room is completed, at least there will be no shortage of talents.

  Of course, if you want to build a high-level aerospace industry cooperative research laboratory, it is definitely not enough to rely solely on the financial strength of "Xingtai International".

   In this regard, Zhao Guoyang can only think of other ways.

   Seeing that Zhao Guoyang agreed to this rather difficult cooperation without much pushback, Li Kejian was filled with emotion.

  He knew that Zhao Guoyang did this because of his full trust in himself and his patriotic heart.

Gently patted Zhao Guoyang on the shoulder, and Li Kejian sighed and said, "Guoyang, I am also old and have limited energy. I guess I can't help you much in this aerospace industry cooperation research laboratory." .”

   "I think this is good. If your laboratory is really listed later, I will recommend myself as the "honorary director" of your laboratory. I will help you sit and run errands, and contact the four parties. What do you think?"

"what?"

  Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang felt as if he had been hit in the head by a big gold brick, and was speechless.

  Seeing this, Li Kejian couldn't help but joked, "Why, aren't you happy?"

   "No no no, how could it be! Mr. Li, you can be this 'honorary director', that's great!"

  Zhao Guoyang's eyes suddenly showed a sense of confidence and pride: "Mr. Li, I assure you that this aerospace industry cooperation research room will be established in the shortest time at the fastest speed..."
