Wu Changfeng presented Minister Xu with a difficult problem.
One who dares to think and dares to act.
Private companies that dare to pay deposits and sign pledges.
Are you going to give it to me or not?
Not giving it to them would contradict the national policy that both private and state-owned enterprises are part of the economy.
Give it to me.
There has never been such a precedent before!
The three of them huddled together, smoking.
Minister Xu said, "Old Tang, what do you think of this? Wu Changfeng is giving us a difficult problem."
"I don't think we should give it to him. Although we've embarrassed Wu Changfeng, we were caught off guard by his sudden stunt!"
Minister Tang continued, "Besides, isn't this a joke? This is a key national project, and it's always been resolved internally."
"When has there ever been a precedent for this being done to a private company? If it goes well, we get nothing; if it goes badly, it's all our fault."
Minister Xu agreed wholeheartedly: "Indeed, you should comfort Wu Changfeng and tell him not to get emotional."
At this moment.
Director Sun offered a different perspective: "Both of you leaders, if you were to take a look around at the grassroots level, you would know that private business owners are constantly coming up with new tricks."
"I didn't mean to look down on them. I just mean, these people are really creative."
“Take steelmaking for example, there are many small steel mills around Stone City.”
"The steel produced is really good."
"They only need a few dozen people. Do I need to tell you how many people Dahua Steel Plant has?"
Minister Xu immediately understood what Factory Director Sun meant: "You're inclined to give him a chance."
"Innovation and risk-taking are what entrepreneurs should possess."
Factory Director Sun pointed outside: "Look at the others, they're like walking corpses."
"We desperately need a catfish to stir things up!"
"Of course, I'm speaking from a broader perspective. It's none of my business who manufactures the equipment; all I need to do is deliver on time."
Minister Xu and Minister Tang pondered for a long time.
Is Lao Zhou short of money?
Those who dare to pay a million in deposits are certainly not lacking.
In an era when having 10,000 yuan is still a novelty, this amount of money is more than enough to live a carefree life.
But why did he still go to such lengths to take on this mission?
Unknown risks and huge penalties for breach of contract.
It can completely expose his true colors.
So, what exactly does Lao Zhou want?
Minister Xu already knows.
What he wanted was to break through his own limitations.
What we need is to have the right to compete on an equal footing with large state-owned factories.
He was willing to take risks for this goal; isn't that a kind of entrepreneurial spirit?
In contrast, state-owned enterprise leaders...
I wish I wouldn't be given any tasks.
The stark contrast stirred something within Minister Xu.
My role is not simply to assign tasks to the factories below.
They also have to undertake tasks related to improving the overall manufacturing level of the country.
Some people are incredibly ambitious, but the nature of the company...
Some people run high-ranking companies, but they just coast along day by day.
So.
Whom can we rely on for the future of our nation?
This question left Minister Xu with a big question mark.
Minister Tang said, "Xiao Sun, what you're saying is setting Director Zhou up. He doesn't understand the seriousness of the matter, and we need to remind him and stop him."
Factory Director Sun replied, "This is not a matter of seriousness, but a matter of attitude."
"When leading troops into battle, there are always those who volunteer to be at the forefront. Does the captain intend to dampen that enthusiasm?"
"Admittedly, private enterprises certainly have problems that are beyond our control."
"But we cannot stop people from moving forward because of a few problems."
"Does being blind mean you can't walk?"
Minister Xu nodded in agreement: "What you said makes sense. Since this is a major campaign, we should mobilize all our resources."
"Perhaps, Director Zhou can also create a miracle."
“Unlike other state-owned enterprises that are reluctant, we can’t dampen Lao Zhou’s enthusiasm.”
Minister Tang sighed: "Then I won't offer any further opinions. Let's proceed according to your plan."
The three of them had a more in-depth discussion in the small meeting.
Then they returned to the meeting room and continued the meeting.
Seeing the three of them return, Old Zhou nervously asked Wu Changfeng, "Will it work?"
Wu Changfeng glanced at Minister Xu's expression and said, "I still have face when I speak."
Old Zhou was in great agony.
It felt like waiting for a verdict.
I want to know the outcome, but I don't want my hopes to be dashed.
Minister Xu picked up the microphone: "Let's continue the meeting. We just had a little incident."
"As a private enterprise, Director Zhou wants to obtain the business of steel rolling equipment."
"It's not just a pipe dream in your eyes, it's also a fantasy in my eyes."
When Lao Zhou heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
I tensed up instantly.
He whispered to Wu Changfeng, "It's over! It's over! There's no hope!"
Wu Changfeng waved his hand: "What's the rush? The leader hasn't finished speaking until the very last word. Just you wait and see, Minister Xu will definitely say: 'However.'"
"However," Minister Xu continued, "Director Zhou's spirit is commendable; there is no such thing as doing things without risk."
"I'm sure many of you here feel the same way."
"Whether you get complex equipment or simple equipment."
"If you don't take it seriously, problems may arise."
"Now, Director Zhou has made his stance clear: he is willing to take full responsibility. This is an attitude of fighting for survival!"
"No one here can compare to her!"
"I will give Director Zhou a chance, a chance for him to prove himself!"
