Chapter 392: The First Person in Huaxia Private Heavy Industries
Xiang Shaobo is a legendary and controversial figure in the Chinese business community. He had less than 3,000 yuan when he resigned from the large state-owned enterprise where he worked before, and he opened a similar workshop with a few like-minded friends.
A small factory, but more than ten years later, he created Sanshan Heavy Industry Group with a market value of over 10 billion, which cannot but be said to be a miracle.
The heavy machinery industry has always been an area that only state-owned enterprises dare to engage in, but Xiang Shaobo is an alternative. Some people say that Xiang Shaobo is the "butcher" of the heavy machinery industry. The emergence of Sanshan Heavy Industry has greatly reduced the market share of state-owned enterprises, leaving many
Large heavy industry state-owned enterprises are facing the dilemma of bankruptcy, but an indisputable fact is that Sanshan
Heavy industry has brought about changes in the entire construction machinery industry. According to statistics, before 1995, foreign brands of concrete pumps accounted for more than 95% of the Chinese market, but now, foreign brands of concrete pumps account for less than 5%.
It is said that the development of Sanshan Heavy Industry has intensified the changes in the entire machinery manufacturing industry.
Later, he ran Sanshan Heavy Industry to be listed on the A-share market. It is known as the first private enterprise in China's construction machinery industry. It is one of the largest heavy machinery manufacturing companies in China, has nearly 100 national technology patents, and ranks among the top in production and sales in the same industry.
The company's export business has expanded to Turkey, Taiwan, Macau, Eastern Europe, Africa, Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, Russia, South America and other countries and regions, establishing a good brand image of China's national industry. Even the No. 1 head of the Central Committee has visited Sanshan
Heavy industry inspection.
In the eyes of many people, Xiang Shaobo is a mystery. From destroying his iron rice bowl to starting a business from scratch, from being in dire straits to becoming a billionaire on the Forbes list, what does this "No. 1 person in China's private heavy industry" know?
How many firsts have been created in China and even the world? How many World Record Association world records have been created and broken? The radiant splendor has been demonstrated through a life of struggle.
Xiang Shaobo is a very low-key person. He rarely accepts interviews from the news media and rarely appears in public. This can also be seen from his car. He bought a car worth several million for each of the company's major shareholders.
Maybach, but he rarely rides in it. Unless he is receiving important guests, he usually rides in his Volkswagen Phaeton. Once he drove his Volkswagen Phaeton to a banquet in a high-end club, and was mistaken by the security guard.
Passat stopped and refused to let him park on the pretext that the parking garage was full.
But in terms of corporate innovation, Xiang Shaobo is very high-profile. After his first entrepreneurial success, Xiang Shaobo was not satisfied with the status quo. He has been exploring the sustainable development path of Chinese private enterprises and started the company's "second entrepreneurship".
He was the first to implement the split-trading reform of corporate shares.
As a result, it became the first stock in China's share-trading reform and was permanently recorded in the history of the development of China's capital market. It can be said that this reform of Sanshan Heavy Industry successfully solved the "number one problem" in China's stock market. Xiang Shaobo also won the
The Chinese Economic Person of the Year Award that year.
"The responsibility of the country is greater than the profit of the company" and "Be grateful and serve the country with industry", these are the words that Xiang Shaobo often talks about and regard them as the essence of corporate culture. It is precisely in this strong history and
Driven by a sense of social responsibility, Sanshan Heavy Industry has truly achieved "openness"
"This kind of openness is no longer as simple as introducing talents and open-mindedness, but it is inclusive and inclusive. Giving up your shares to real talents and reducing your own "wealth" is not a common practice in China's private enterprises.
It's rare, but Xiang Shaobo did it.
Xiang Shaobo's arrival even alarmed the Provincial Party Committee Secretary Shi Liang. He not only met with Xiang Shaobo in person, but also sent Executive Vice Governor Jiang Kaikai to accompany Xiang Shaobo on his inspection tour of Hongxing City, and called Zhu Changsheng and Duan Zetao overnight.
When we arrived at the provincial capital, we explained three principles:
1. This cooperation negotiation with Sanshan Heavy Industry is not only a major event for Hongxing City, but also a major event for the province. It can only succeed and cannot fail. The province will send Executive Vice Governor Jiang Kaikai to participate in the entire cooperation negotiation. A negotiation and decision-making group will be established immediately.
, Jiang Kaikai serves as the team leader, and Zhu Changsheng and Duan Zetao serve as deputy team leaders.
Second, Red Star Heavy Industry Group is a large state-owned enterprise in the province, and there must be no loss of state-owned assets during cooperation negotiations.
Third, the resettlement of laid-off workers is an issue related to social stability and must be properly handled. Taking over most of the original employees of Red Star Heavy Industry Group is an important part of this cooperation negotiation. We cannot make too big a deal on this issue.
concession.
As soon as the news came out that Red Star Heavy Industry would cooperate and reorganize with Sanshan Heavy Industry, the stock price of Red Star Heavy Industry immediately rose sharply. Duan Zetao, Liu Junren and others were also happy and excited. Finally, there was a glimmer of light at the Red Star Factory, but some people were worried.
Nie Yiqian and Liu Huaqiang could not sit still at first, and hurriedly came to Zhu Changsheng for discussion.
"Old man, the stock price of Red Star Heavy Industry has skyrocketed by 8 points today, but our layout has not been completed yet. If Red Star Heavy Industry and Sanshan Heavy Industry are allowed to cooperate and reorganize successfully, our plan will not be implemented!..." Liu Huaqiang frowned.
brow said.
Nie Yiqian was worried about another issue and echoed: "Yes, and if Red Star Heavy Industry and Sanshan Heavy Industry really cooperate in reorganization, the assets and financial status of Red Star Heavy Industry will be strictly audited, and foreign audit companies will be hired.
, then we can’t cover up those things!…”.
Zhu Changsheng glanced at Liu Huaqiang and Nie Yiqian calmly, and said slowly: "Why are you panicking? Red Star Heavy Industries is a hot potato right now. It is so easy to take over. I think Xiang Shaobo is a very shrewd character.
Will definitely propose
The conditions are very harsh, and the province also wants Sanshan Heavy Industry to take over the laid-off employees of the Red Star Factory. Who can afford the two big hats of losing state-owned assets and undermining social stability and unity?! I am sure that this cooperation and reorganization will not be successful.
It will succeed...".
"Besides, I am the deputy team leader of this negotiation. Jiang Kaifeng is very happy with his success, but he is indecisive, dare not take responsibility, and is easy to fool. As long as I insist on the conditions and do not give in, it will definitely end in vain. The stock of Red Star Heavy Industry
It will definitely fall sharply, and then we will be able to attract a large amount of funds. Then I will propose the cooperation plan between Huanyu Group and Red Star Heavy Industries to raise the stock price, and our plan will be implemented..."
"Yiqian can also do some work over there. As long as rumors are spread outside that the government is planning to sell off the Red Star Factory at a low price and lay off all the workers, the workers of the Red Star Factory will inevitably come out to cause trouble. Once the workers make a fuss, Jiang Kaifeng will not dare to do so.
I have agreed to the harsh conditions proposed by Sanshan Heavy Industry, and the negotiations will collapse even if I don't want to...".
In order to welcome Xiang Shaobo's arrival, Hongxing City mobilized its entire army. Zhu Changsheng and Duan Zetao personally brought members of the four major teams to the highway intersection to greet Xiang Shaobo and held a grand welcome dinner for Xiang Shaobo.
This is the first time Duan Zetao has met this legendary businessman. Xiang Shaobo is about forty years old. He is wearing an ordinary suit and looks very calm. He is really low-key and taciturn. Jiang Kaikai, Zhu Changsheng and others
They kept talking around him, but he always smiled and rarely spoke. Only a flash of light flashed in his eyes from time to time, showing his shrewdness and wisdom.
If we can successfully lead this negotiation, it will undoubtedly be a good political achievement. Executive Vice Governor Jiang Kaifeng is almost always with Xiang Shaobo. However, Duan Zetao, who had previously advocated the reorganization negotiations of the Red Star Factory, was rejected by Jiang Kaifeng and Zhu Changsheng.
He was excluded from the decision-making circle for United, and had basically no say. Liu Junren could only stand aside.
In the presidential suite of the Huanyu Hotel, Xiang Shaobo held a cigarette in his mouth and frowned. He was searching for information about the Red Star Factory on the Internet. The ashtray beside him was full of cigarette butts, and the room was filled with smoke. Apparently he was also working on peace and harmony.
I am thinking hard about the cooperation with Red Star Heavy Industries.
At this time, his "think tank" Liang Yongsheng walked in. Liang Yongsheng was previously the director of the Development and Reform Commission of a prefecture-level city. Not only was he extremely talented, but he also had in-depth research on the reform of China's political system and corporate management mechanisms.
With an annual salary of one million yuan, he was invited to join Sanshan Heavy Industry and became the "second person" of Sanshan Heavy Industry. He can be said to have contributed indispensably to Sanshan Heavy Industry's achievements today.
As soon as Liang Yongsheng entered the room, he was filled with smoke and frowned. He quickly walked to the window and opened it to let some air in. Liang Yongsheng and Xiang Shaobo had an extraordinary relationship and joked: "Mr. Xiang, you want to smoke bacon?"
!……”.
Xiang Shaobo didn't answer, still staring at the computer screen with his brows furrowed and motionless. Liang Yongsheng came over and looked at the computer screen. It was full of posts about the shady story of Red Star Heavy Industry. He shook his head and said bluntly.
: "Mr. Xiang, do you really want to cooperate with Red Star Heavy Industries for reorganization?"
?! According to the information I collected, this Red Star Heavy Industry is a hot potato. There are many shady things involved, and many government officials are involved. If we really get involved, I'm afraid we will also fall into this complicated mess.
In the middle of the quagmire, the risk is very high!..."
"And a dead camel is bigger than a horse. Red Star Heavy Industries is an old state-owned enterprise with assets of tens of billions and nearly 100,000 employees. If we want to swallow this big fish, we must raise at least tens of billions of funds. Our group
The expansion rate has been very fast in the past few years, and it is impossible to mobilize so much money. If we try hard, it will probably cause the group company's capital chain to break, and the gain will not be worth the loss!..."
Liang Yongsheng was Xiang Shaobo's 'think tank', and Xiang Shaobo had to take his opinions seriously. Xiang Shaobo sighed and said: "Yes, I also know these situations, so I have been hesitant...".
As he spoke, Xiang Shaobo stood up, walked to the window and looked down at the scenery outside the window. In the distance, you could see the large factory buildings of the Red Star Factory and the iconic towering chimney. This was clearly an independent
Kingdom, if you can become the master of this kingdom, you will undoubtedly have a great sense of accomplishment. Another light flashed in Xiang Shaobo's eyes.
