A new day dawns, and the sun shines brightly.
Two jeeps sped off towards the Ministry of Machinery.
In the car in front, two people in the back seat are talking.
"Director, you said the ministry suddenly summoned us, what's the matter?"
"Weimin! You need to learn to stay calm. I don't know the specifics, but it's definitely related to our products."
"I rarely go to the ministry, so I'm a bit unsure of myself, hehehe!" Zhou Weimin said, laughing insecurely.
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhengnan, who was driving, couldn't help but purse his lips.
Thinking to myself, my brother-in-law is really something. He's a deputy factory director, yet he doesn't go as often as I do.
However, he only thought these words in his heart and dared not say them out loud.
Who knew, the next second, Sun Zhengguo seemed to sense something and asked him a question.
"Zhengnan, has Chunwang gotten his driver's license yet?"
"Brother, my cousin is so smart, he has a good teacher and a car to practice on, how could he not get a driver's license?"
Sun Zhengnan said smugly, thinking that his older brother would definitely praise him.
Then, instead of receiving praise, he received bad news, as Sun Zhengguo said.
"Alright, now that Chunwang has gotten his driver's license, arrange for him to drive for me!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhengnan was struck dumb; his elder brother no longer wanted him.
"No, brother, I have no problem with my cousin Chunwang driving for you, but what about me?"
Zhou Weimin, sitting in the back seat, shook his head when he heard his brother-in-law's silly question.
Since Sun Zhengguo made these arrangements, he must have a better place to go. Why are you asking such a stupid question?
As expected, Sun Zhengguo did not disappoint him. He spoke slowly.
"Don't worry, Zheng Nan, your older brother is planning to arrange for you to go to the branch factory. There happens to be a position for deputy team leader there. Are you okay with that?"
"Vice Captain?" Sun Zhengnan's expression immediately became quite varied.
If he remembered correctly, this position was at the deputy section chief level, which was much better than his current position as the squad leader of the motorcade.
It turns out my older brother wanted to promote me; I was so foolish to even think about it.
"Thank you, brother. Thank you, brother."
“We’re all brothers, no need to be polite. You’ve been with me for so many years, you’ve worked hard even if you haven’t done anything outstanding. You have to do a good job when you get there, and you can’t let me down.”
"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely do my best."
Overjoyed, Sun Zhengnan unconsciously stepped on the gas, instantly increasing the speed even further.
His acceleration caused confusion among the cars behind him, who thought something had happened and quickly tried to catch up.
Soon, the two vehicles arrived at the Ministry of Machinery. After the vehicles came to a stop, the people got out.
At this time, Minister Li's secretary had been waiting at the door for a long time.
"Director Sun, you've arrived. The minister asked me to wait for you here and told you to go directly to the conference room."
"Okay, thank you, Secretary Wang."
Without exchanging pleasantries, the group thanked each other and then Sun Zhengguo led Li Shengli and the others upstairs to the conference room.
The conference room was already quite full of people.
They included Minister Li and Vice Minister Liu from the Ministry of Machinery Industry, Director Yu and Deputy Director Qin from the General Office, and finally, a director surnamed Jiang from the Ministry of Foreign Trade.
These people sat there without the slightest impatience, just waiting for Sun Zhengguo and his group.
Just then, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and Minister Li's face lit up with joy upon hearing them.
"They're here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the conference room door was pushed open from the outside, and then Sun Zhengguo and others walked in.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Minister Li arranged for Sun Zhengguo and the others to sit down before he began to speak.
"Comrades! The purpose of this meeting today is to discuss the sales situation of our overseas products. Now, Director Jiang from the Ministry of Foreign Trade will give us the details."
"Yes, boss."
Seeing this, Director Jiang didn't stand on ceremony and immediately took out the materials he had prepared in advance from his bag, and began to read them out in an orderly manner.
While sales of early products like antennas continued to grow, profits were far less substantial than before.
Everyone sitting there knew that this was inevitable; after all, no business can be monopolized, and competition will inevitably lead to price reductions.
Then Director Jiang reported on the pager issue. When he learned that another 100,000 units had been ordered, the meeting room erupted in enthusiastic applause.
However, the good news didn't end there. Immediately afterwards, another 20,000 orders for the game consoles were received, instantly igniting the atmosphere in the conference room.
Minister Li said with a smile, "Great...great! I really didn't expect that this game console would achieve such good results so soon after its launch."
Director Yu didn't speak, but smiled at Sun Zhengguo and nodded encouragingly.
Meanwhile, the others also had smiles on their faces, clapping as they secretly calculated how much foreign exchange they could bring to the country this time.
After Director Jiang finished reporting on the sales situation, he went to Sun Zhengguo's side.
After all, sales channels are already in place, but what about production volume? Can it keep up with the supply speed? We need to report this so we can make adjustments in a timely manner.
Sun Zhengguo's understanding of these matters was not comprehensive, so he naturally left it to Zhou Weimin to demonstrate.
As expected, Zhou Weimin not only performed his job exceptionally well, but he also had a thorough understanding of the situation at the southern branch factory, which he reported on in detail.
It's clear he's put in a lot of effort, and his communication with both sides is excellent.
After he finished reporting the general situation, Minister Li and Director Yu praised his work attitude.
Since sales and production are currently not an issue, the meeting then proceeded to discuss coordination issues with various parties for some time…
Ultimately, the meeting set a tone that all relevant departments should develop contingency plans for matters related to the research institute in the future to prevent unforeseen circumstances and to handle them promptly.
The meeting was supposed to end here, but then Director Jiang suddenly dropped a bombshell with bad news.
"Wait, leaders, this is a very important matter, I have something else to report."
"Director Jiang, please speak frankly."
Seeing that Minister Li had spoken, Director Jiang continued.
"We received a message from Hong Kong that Motorola has started building base stations in neighboring countries, targeting pagers. They asked us if we should take precautions?"
"What?"
"What should we do?"
"Why can't these foreigners stand to see others doing well!"
...
Faced with this sudden news, the meeting room erupted in discussion, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.
Minister Li and Director Yu were at a loss, so they turned to Sun Zhengguo, hoping he would have some good ideas.
Sun Zhengguo seemed to have anticipated all of this.
This can be seen from his expression; he was very calm.
