"Oh, I really don't know what I owed you in my last life." Meng Qinqin was so angry that Chen Taizhong said something that made him laugh and cry. He accidentally said some ambiguous sentences. After a brief pause, he changed the topic directly, "This
It’s a three-no product, right?”
"What do you mean by a three-no product? What you say is really unpleasant!"
While Chen Taizhong refuted Meng Qinqin, he also put a halo on himself, "This is a newly developed product by the Phoenix Science and Technology Commission. It needs the support of the province. This is the first of its kind in Tiannan."
"This thing is actually not very useful. I have noticed it." Meng Qinqin is not that easy to fool. "It can block wind and rain, but it cannot block man-made damage. In fact, this is the main cause of damage to teller machines. I don't know why there are so many
Are you bored?"
"However, something is better than nothing, right?" Chen Taizhong admitted that what Meng Qinqin said was the truth.
"Actually, this is how those branches spend money in different ways." Privately, Section Chief Qin still dared to talk about this kind of thing, "But you are too loyal. You go there with these three-no products and ask for sponsorship."
There’s no difference.”
This was really a bit hurtful, but Chen Taizhong also knew that it was hard to hear, but it was the truth if it was serious. He laughed and said, "I have a product, how can I call it sponsorship?"
"Anyway, the bank has too much money to spend. If you don't buy mine, you have to buy other people's. Why don't you give me a discount? Besides, Chief Qin's face is not worth a few teller machines?"
Meng Qinqin pondered for a moment, then raised his head and stared at him, "Taizhong, tell the truth, is this thing... developed by the Phoenix Science and Technology Commission itself?"
In her words, the word "self" was emphasized very strongly. Obviously, Section Chief Qin was very concerned about the difference between original works and pirated copies, at least in this matter.
"I can swear to you. We definitely did it ourselves. This thing is actually...not very difficult." Chen Taizhong felt a little hurt. Aren't you looking down on us? "Many technologies are mature, but they are integrated.
It’s time to think more about it.”
"Really?"
"That's right!" He replied decisively while taking out a stack of photos. "Look, these are the photos of our prototype. Not bad, right? I said... don't laugh. Tsk... smile again. Again
It makes me angry to laugh at you."
"I don't laugh... I don't laugh!" Meng Qinqin covered his chest with both hands. His body was shaking uncontrollably. It took him a long time to calm down. "This prototype looks very happy... Haha!"
"Isn't it old-fashioned? All prototypes are like this." Seeing that he couldn't stop her laughter, Chen Taizhong didn't bother to explain in vain. Instead, he changed his tone of disdain. "This is not something that comes from the production line.
.It’s normal to be ugly, right?”
In fact, the appearance of the prototype is really not too ugly. Liang Zhigang spent a small amount of 5,000 yuan to build such a thing. Although there is the factor of replacing parts, the image problem must have been noticed.
"After seeing this photo, I believe that this thing was developed by you," Meng Qinqin finally stopped laughing and nodded seriously. This sentence is a blessing in disguise. It is indeed true.
"Let me ask for you," she hesitated, and finally nodded, "I have two friends in the municipal bank, and my mother also has friends in the People's Bank of China and the ICBC, let me help you ask."
"This bank...if only it were the best in the world," Chen Taizhong couldn't help but feel excited when he heard that Shang Caixia could handle the ICBC with the most teller machines.
"Okay. It's just...how much does this cost?" Only at this moment did Meng Qinqin think of a very crucial question. It can be seen that the levels are different and the focus of the problem will definitely not be the same.
"The market price is 50,000 a piece," Chen Taizhong was not polite, saying to himself that his brothers already had the reputation of being a sponsor, so an extra knife would be enough, but that's all.
"Oh," Meng Qinqin nodded and didn't say anything. Instead, he talked about other topics, "I heard... you were selected as one of the top ten young people? Is it true?"
"You don't know this yet?" Chen Taizhong was surprised for a moment.
"I'm too lazy to ask my dad about this kind of thing, he has to ask others," Meng Qinqin pouted, then picked up the newspaper at hand and waved it, "Anyway, it won't be published in the newspaper in advance. After you finish the meeting,
Only then can I know.”
"Look at the documents." Chen Taizhong also knew that this kind of thing would not be published in the newspaper first. Many things have variables. There are especially many variables, just like the appointment has not been issued and the relevant people will not make it public.
Who knows if a guy with hands and eyes that can reach the sky will appear in the next moment?
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Do you have the task of speaking on the spot?" Meng Qinqin smiled and shook his head, "There must be youth representatives speaking at the activities of the Youth League and Provincial Committee."
"Dream, I can be a young man at the age of twenty, which is already good." Chen Taizhong rolled his eyes. Of course he knew that those who can speak are definitely better than those who don't speak. "Can I compare to a forty-year-old youth? I want to be a better person."
So contented."
"Haha, I have something to say, and I'm better than you," Meng Qinqin covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Are you also one of the top ten young people?" Chen Taizhong asked innocently, then he realized, isn't it, that it is not easy for the daughter of the provincial party committee secretary to compete for such a spot?
"Well, actually, I don't value false reputations very much," he smiled and nodded, thinking to himself, you kid, don't get used to it anymore. I'll be at the venue when the time comes. If you get used to it, I'll throw Mo Yanshu at you while you're speaking.
, make you stinky and beautiful again.
"Actually, it's quite boring. The youth representatives are not that comfortable." Meng Qinqin raised his eyebrows helplessly, "At least a dozen brothers have said hello and asked me to give a report when I'm free... Oh, so
I pushed, I couldn’t stand it.”
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore," Chen Taizhong stood up, "I'll go to the general office to report to He Tieying, and you can go about your business."
"Tsk, you guy... stingy!" Meng Qinqin raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, "It's already half past eleven, and you don't even know how to treat me to dinner."
"How about you invite your friends from the market and let me treat you?" Chen Taizhong looked at her with a smile.
"Actually, it's useless to go to them," Meng Qinqin curled his lips. "It's better to go to our bank president. You're a bit of a nature. You can't go through the regular procedures. I guess your Science and Technology Committee doesn't even have invoices, right?"
"Who said that? We have other service industry invoices. It's not a problem to issue a few retail industry invoices. Isn't it just a matter of stamping the financial seal of the Science and Technology Commission?" At this point, Chen Taizhong reacted and stared, "I
We've been talking for a long time, and you've been making fun of me?"
"Oh, I don't even know who is making fun of whom," Meng Qinqin looked at him angrily and amusedly. "Director Chen, you brought invoices from other service industries for the things that should be recorded in the fixed assets account, please.
Teach me, if I leave it to you, how would you settle the bill?"
"You go to the president and it's settled," Chen Taizhong didn't really understand these financial terms, so he walked out and said, "If you want to help me, I'll give you a good gift!"
"It seems like someone cares about your things," Meng Qinqin shouted at his back, his voice was not very quiet. People around him were shocked to look sideways, and Niu Xiaofang, who had a ponytail, stood up and took a closer look.
He looked into the eyes of his head of department.
"What are you looking at?" Meng Qinqin scolded, but Niu Xiaofang replied with a smile, "The Fendi handsome guy's good stuff is very exciting. Qin Ke will definitely bring it over for us to see when he comes back."
Hearing this, Meng Qinqin thought of the roses blooming on Chen Taizhong's hands for no reason. The next moment, she shook her head as if mocking herself, picked up the phone and dialed, muttering to herself in an inaudible voice, "
It’s not mine, so I have so many idle thoughts..."
But let’s not talk about it, her energy is really not limited. At about four o’clock in the afternoon, news came from the president: We can consider supporting the local technological development of Tiannan Province.
But it's only 50,000 yuan per machine. The price is a bit high. How about... one or two thousand for each machine? If possible, first install a protective cover on Subo's teller machine.
Of course, the president answered so cheerfully because he asked Shang Caixia for instructions. The Phoenix Science and Technology Commission has something in its hands. It is not a too naked beggar. The individual price may be a little higher, but the total price is just a mere
Hundreds of thousands, who cares?
Seriously, he would take this opportunity to say hello to Mrs. Meng and get a condom. Anyway, the cost is not too high. He just needs to emphasize that the thing does not have a trademark or brand yet, so it is just a favor, right?
However, the president also emphasized: Phoenix Science and Technology Commission’s technical strength is very strong. As for the protective cover, it can actually be counted as construction and maintenance. It doesn’t matter whether it has a brand or not.
Shang Caixia's answer was quite satisfactory and watertight, "Phoenix Science and Technology Commission is the pilot unit of the Torch Plan. However, the principles that should be talked about still need to be explained. I think that under the same circumstances, appropriate care will be enough."
So the president knew that the favor was a bit too small and there was no need to sell it. However, it was better to sell it than not to sell it, so this was the result.
Chapter 918 Preparations for Reception
When Meng Qinqin told Chen Taizhong about this good thing, he was wandering around in the Tiannan Hotel. Secretary-General He Tieying placed him here directly. It happened that the future Birmingham delegation would stay here, so it was convenient to greet him.
Now, the entire Tiannan Hotel is busy cleaning up. Only Chen, following the members of the reception team, is strolling around with nothing to do. No one cares about this young man from Phoenix, although everyone knows that this person is with
A member of the Birmingham delegation was relatively close.
This made Director Chen, who had recently become accustomed to being the focus of others, feel a little uncomfortable. At this moment, he felt like he was just like when he first arrived at the Phoenix Investment Promotion Office, basically a transparent person.
The feeling of being marginalized is uncomfortable. Everyone knows that such a person exists, but no one is willing to take it seriously.
A tall, thin guy in his forties seemed to have thought of something. He walked up to Chen Taizhong and asked with a smile, "Xiao Chen, do you think the layout in the front hall is more in line with British habits?"
Chen Taizhong knew that this man was the boss of Tiannan Hotel and also the deputy leader of the reception team. However, he saw that this man's smile was a bit unpleasant, and after being treated coldly for a long time, he refused to answer seriously.
"Actually, you don't have to think about what they want, just show your own characteristics," he replied nonchalantly. In fact, this is not a perfunctory statement. I think he just eats Western food with chopsticks in the UK, so he wouldn't care about this.
conventional.
Catering to the guests' aesthetic point of view does not mean that it lowers one's own status. There are so many countries and so many ethnic groups in the world, how can there be an unchanging way of reception? It doesn't matter to cater to the guests, but if you lose your own characteristics, you will be in Subo. Just like in the UK
What's the difference?
"Well, that's an idea," the deputy team leader nodded with a smile, turned around and left, neither saying it was good or bad, "please take a closer look and give me more opinions."
In fact, his original intention was just to ask casually. Mayor Zhu was transferred here to help. Just pay a little attention and show some courtesy. If a guy from Phoenix is more experienced, the deputy team leader really doesn't take it seriously.
Here, I am a hotel professional and have stayed in more five-star hotels than you have ever seen.
When he was bored, Chen Taizhong answered Meng Qinqin's call. He was overjoyed and asked in a low voice, "Haha. Thank you for this. Does CCB still have anything to do with it?"
"You should do the Bank of China's thing first," Meng Qinqin snorted, "spend a month or two to perfect your thing, and then you can talk about other companies' things after installing it. It's best to make it look better, don't embarrass me.
"Don't worry about this, I'll call them right now," Chen Taizhong hung up the phone with a smile. As he hung up, there was a faint message from the other side, "What is the gift you gave me..."
Unfortunately, the call has been hung up.
When Liang Zhigang heard that Director Chen had already secured ten teller machines of Bank of China in Subo, he laughed happily. "Li Jian went to negotiate with people from ICBC, and they said they would report it to the bank. But I heard that the problem is not
Very big.”
"Well, let's pretend to be Phoenix ICBC first. If there is any situation, we can report and deal with it in time." Meng Qinqin didn't want to be embarrassed, and Chen Taizhong didn't want to be laughed at. "Su Bo can wait a moment. He finally broke into the provincial capital.
Be careful."
"Haha, no problem," Liang Zhigang smiled happily there. In any case, ten protective covers are enough to pay back the cost. Among so many projects of the Science and Technology Commission, his Torch Plan funds were the first to win. Why not let it go?
He was extremely happy. "I have already discussed it with the 768th Institute of Electronics and asked them to do it for me."
The 768th Institute of the Electronics Department is located on the edge of the Fenghuang City High-tech Zone. Now it can be regarded as a grandma who does not love her uncle and does not love her. Life is relatively tight, but there are still many technical talents inside and a considerable degree of electronic product processing capabilities.
Director Liang's reputation in Phoenix is quite good. He is looking for a OEM here, and it happens that the director of the third business office there is his classmate. The director is shouldering the burden of "raising 50% of his salary by himself."
As soon as he heard that Liang Zhigang was alive, he immediately pounced on him viciously.
Relatively speaking, the charges of 768 Institutes are a bit higher than those of other small private factories, and more expensive than those of handicraft workshops, but they are better because of their reliable quality.
After all, with the quality of their employees and high-end equipment, this is still equivalent to a semi-private job for three rooms. If it really matches the 768th Department, the price will still rise.
"Haha, you don't need to explain this to me," Chen Taizhong answered him with a smile, "As long as you have passed the meeting, there is nothing I haven't mentioned here. By the way, who is the person in charge of the new service company?"
Before leaving, he decided that this project would be carried out by a service company. Although he didn't attend the meeting, no one at the venue objected, right? It shouldn't be considered a single statement, right?
"This... hasn't been decided yet," Liang Zhigang responded a little hesitantly, "Well, comrades have quite different opinions. Let's wait until Director Chen comes back."
In fact, Director Liang also wanted to pursue this project. After all, it was a real income-generating project, and the profitable funds were much more convenient to spend than the funds from the Torch Project. However, this conflicted with his main responsibility and had to be abandoned.
But when he mentioned this, he still felt a little bit resentful. After all, I found the project and presided over the research and development. This... others just grabbed it and made money. It's really unbalanced!
Therefore, he felt that he should compete for the personnel appointment and dismissal of this new service company. However, other directors also had their own preferred candidates, so he had to put it aside for the time being. "Now Director Wen is in charge, and Li Jian is in charge."
Director Chen has to make the final decision on this kind of thing, so that everyone will be convinced.
When Chen Taizhong heard this, he thought it was normal. In fact, apart from the decoration inspection, Wenhai was currently mainly responsible for the traditional business of the Science and Technology Commission. Traditional business meant that he had nothing to do.
As for the decoration inspection, the people doing the hard work are people from the Environmental Protection Bureau. Director Wen also signs contracts and so on. It is quite suitable for the new service company to be in charge of it now.
"Let him come to Subo first to sign the contract, otherwise there will be changes later." To be honest, Chen Taizhong was afraid of those changes.
Although everything has gone smoothly since he came to the Science and Technology Commission, a closer analysis revealed that the operation of everything was actually stumbling. Many times, he couldn't help but think, "Why is it so difficult to do something practical?"
Fortunately, Mr. Chen is a capable master after all. Faced with the difficulties and obstacles, which may be difficult or easy, he finally stumbled over. The current good situation of the Science and Technology Commission, put it half a year ago, everyone would probably think it was a dream.
.
Therefore, he has become more and more vigilant about some variables that may occur, so as to save himself from endless efforts to put out fires. "The president of the Bank of China agreed, but these things are really hard to say, so I have to put them in black and white."
It’s relatively safe.”
"Director Wen has led a team to inspect the decoration," Liang Zhigang's answer was a bit earth-shattering. "When he comes back, I will tell him and ask him to rush to Subo as soon as possible. The house in Hengshan has been divided, but it is estimated that it will be the last one.
People who are in a hurry to move can't finish decorating their house right now. Yes, the first one inspected by the Science and Technology Commission's decoration inspection was actually the office building of the public vehicle management office.
The Vehicle Management Office is a great organization. After Chen Taizhong hung up the phone, he felt very happy. Not to mention that the business was opened, it was still targeted at this kind of organization, and it had a good model effect.
At this moment, a young man came over and greeted him with a smile, "Chen Chen, it's almost time, it's time to eat." The person who came was Liu Bin from the Third Secretariat of the Subo City Government.
He is in charge of investment promotion, foreign trade and economic cooperation, transportation, science and technology, agriculture and rural economy. His current full-time task is to greet Chen Taizhong.
Ordinarily, everyone from Mayor Zhu Bingsong to Secretary General He Tieying still attaches great importance to Chen Taizhong, and even specially arranged people to communicate with him. However, this is often the case in the world. The people above are either busy or restricted by their status and are not suitable to receive him.
The people below are not busy, but because they are limited by their status and do not know certain things, their greetings may not be diligent. Will Zhu Bingsong explain to the people below that Birmingham was given to Subo by Phoenix City? Obviously not.
.
But it was okay. Young man Liu Bin also had eyes. At least he knew that it was Secretary-General He who said he was looking after Chen. He was quite diligent and tried to get some information from Chen Taizhong from time to time.
But in the eyes of Director Chen, how could such a person exist? It’s okay to talk about other things. If he talks about the reason why he came to Subo, he can only say four words: "I came here on orders" and never mention anything else. At this time,
After a long time, Liu Bin became a little slack.
Anyway, Subo paid extraordinary attention to the Birmingham delegation this time. When picking up the guests at the airport, Zhu Bingsong even asked Executive Vice Governor Fan Xiaojun to support the appearance to show respect for the guests.
Looking at the two smiling and chatting members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China in the terminal, Chen Taizhong felt a little funny: How many people here know the plans behind these smiles?
