Chapter 967 Red Star Motors’ joint venture factory, Li Dong comes to the rescue
When Director Yang of the steel rolling mill learned that the first batch of 500 Red Star cars had been sold out, he was filled with joy and immediately decided to hold a grand celebration party for the steel rolling mill laboratory.
The celebration party was decorated with joy and bright lights. The employees of the steel rolling mill gathered together, with smiles of pride and joy on their faces.
Factory Director Yang stood on the stage with a spring breeze on his face. He cleared his throat and said in a loud voice: "Today, we are gathered here to celebrate the glorious achievement of Red Star Motors' first batch of 500 units sold out! This is our steel rolling mill.
The result of the joint efforts of all employees is what we are even more proud of!”
There was warm applause from the audience. Director Yang continued: "Here, I would like to especially commend Comrade Li Donglai. Comrade Li Donglai led the laboratory team, was not afraid of difficulties, had the courage to innovate, and made huge contributions to the R&D and production of Red Star Motors.
His hard work. His professionalism and dedicated attitude are worth learning from each of us!"
Everyone's eyes turned to Li Donglai, and the applause became even more enthusiastic.
Li Donglai stood up with some embarrassment and bowed slightly to everyone. Director Yang continued: "Comrade Li Donglai used his wisdom and sweat to open up a new path for our steel rolling mill and our future.
In addition to verbal praise, the steel rolling mill also distributed generous material rewards to Li Donglai.
Of course, now that Li Donglai holds multiple jobs and his salary is as high as more than 300 yuan, he no longer cares about those material rewards.
Those generous prizes may be enviable wealth in the eyes of others, but for Li Donglai, they no longer stir up much excitement in his heart.
However, what concerned him was that the ministry actually nominated him as this year's model worker candidate.
This news was like a huge stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in his heart.
Li Donglai is well aware of the weight of the title of Model Worker. It is not only an honor, but also a high recognition of his hard work and selfless dedication over the years.
When the researchers learned the news, their hearts were filled with emotion and joy.
They looked at Li Donglai with admiration and gratitude in their eyes. In their eyes, Li Donglai was not only an outstanding leader, but also a partner who cared about his subordinates and valued affection and justice.
The emergence of Red Star Automobile is like a bright new star rising in the automotive field, and it quickly attracted the attention of foreign automobile giants.
Baolu Automobile Group was deeply shocked by the rise of Red Star Automobile, and they were keenly aware of the huge potential and market competitiveness of Red Star Automobile.
Therefore, Baolu Automobile Group sent a representative named Jefferson to the steel rolling mill laboratory.
Jefferson was wearing a crisp suit and had an extraordinary temperament. He stepped into this place full of innovation and vitality with full sincerity and expectations.
When Jefferson saw Li Donglai, a glint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
Li Donglai's calmness and confidence, as well as the advanced equipment and busy scene in the laboratory, made him full of confidence in this cooperation.
Jefferson respectfully extended his hand to Li Donglai and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I have long admired your name. The Red Star cars of your factory are really amazing. We, Baolu Automobile Group, very much hope to discuss the export of Red Star cars with you."
Li Donglai stretched out his hand, shook it and said with a smile: "I also admire your Baolv Automobile and I hope we can have a happy cooperation."
Jefferson felt relieved after hearing this. He had heard before coming that the director of the Red Star Rolling Mill Laboratory was particularly difficult to deal with.
None of the big pharmaceutical companies took advantage of him.
I thought this negotiation would be difficult, but now Jefferson is relieved.
"Director Li, we hope to purchase the new energy technology used by your Red Star automobile. Don't worry, our Baolv Company is one of the largest companies in the world and will definitely be able to give you a satisfactory price."
Jefferson showed great wealth.
But Li Donglai laughed: "It's okay to transfer technology, but we don't want to buy it out!"
As soon as these words came out, Jefferson's expression changed.
"No buyout? Do you think you want to use technology to invest in shares?"
"No, no, no, we don't like technology investment!" Li Donglai stood up and smiled: "If possible, we hope to build a joint venture factory!"
"Building a joint venture to build a factory?"
"That's right. We will provide the technology, you will provide the funds and factories, and we will jointly build a car factory in your hometown to produce Red Star cars."
Li Donglai followed the practices of foreign automobile companies in his previous life.
Jefferson's face became extremely complicated, and his heart was full of contradictions. On the one hand, the proposal to build a joint venture factory really surprised and troubled him, which was different from Baolu Automobile Group's usual development strategy. On the other hand, Red Star
The strong technical strength and market potential displayed by the car made it difficult for him to let go.
Jefferson was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "Director Li, the proposal to build a joint venture factory really needs our serious consideration. This involves a major decision of our group, and I cannot make the decision without authorization. I need to report it to the head office and seek their opinions.
.”
Li Donglai nodded and said with a smile: "I understand, this is an important decision and it does need careful consideration. I look forward to your reply."
The negotiations were temporarily suspended, and Jefferson hurriedly left the conference room to communicate with the head office.
Li Donglai, on the other hand, was sitting there, thinking about the next strategy.
He knows that the proposal to build a joint venture factory is a huge challenge for Baolu Automobile Group, but it is also a rare opportunity. If the cooperation can be successfully reached, it will open up a broader international market for Red Star Automobile and enhance its brand influence.
Section Chief Chen, who is in charge of the negotiation work, learned that Li Donglai had proposed a joint venture to build a factory during the negotiations with Baolu Automobile Group.
The worry in my heart shrouded like a dark cloud.
He hurriedly found Li Donglai, his brows furrowed and his expression full of anxiety.
"Dong Lai, isn't your request a bit too much?"
Chief Chen said earnestly, "Baolv Company is an international automobile giant with deep pockets and many choices.
If we ask for a joint venture to build a factory, they will probably reject it outright, and then the opportunity for cooperation will be gone. Should we be more prudent and lower our requirements?"
Li Donglai looked at Section Chief Chen's anxious look, but his expression remained calm and calm.
He straightened up slightly and said slowly: "Chief Chen, don't worry. Think about it, our new energy technology is a unique treasure.
The value of this technology is immeasurable, and building a joint venture factory may seem demanding, but in fact it will bring huge benefits to both parties."
Section Chief Chen frowned slightly and looked at Li Donglai doubtfully. "How should I put it? I still think the risk is too great."
Li Donglai explained patiently: "First of all, through the establishment of a joint venture, our technology can be more widely used and promoted.
Baolv Company has strong funds and global sales channels, which will allow Red Star Motors to quickly enter the international market and enhance our brand influence.
Secondly, they provide capital and factories, and we provide technology. This is a complementary advantage.
We can use their resources to quickly improve our production capacity and meet the growing market demand.
Moreover, establishing a joint venture will allow us to establish a long-term and stable cooperative relationship with Baolv Company and jointly resist market risks."
This is what foreign car companies did in the previous life. They relied on some technologies to dominate our market for decades. Li Donglai is really good at it.
Listening to Li Donglai's analysis, Section Chief Chen's doubts gradually eased, but he was still a little worried. "But what if Baolv Company doesn't accept it? Doesn't this block the road to cooperation?"
Li Donglai smiled slightly, his eyes revealing firm confidence. "Chief Chen, we can't back down just by looking at the difficulties in front of us.
Baolv Company has a need for our new energy technology, and they also know the value of this technology. As long as we stick to our position and fully demonstrate to them the benefits of building a joint venture, they will definitely consider it seriously.
Moreover, even if they refuse, we still have other options, and our technology will not worry about finding a partner."
Section Chief Chen was silent for a moment, thinking carefully about Li Donglai's words.
Gradually, a trace of recognition appeared in his eyes.
"Donglai, what you said makes sense. It seems that I am a little too conservative. Then let's stick to this request and see how Baolv Company reacts."
Li Donglai nodded, his eyes shining with expectation. "Chief Chen, I believe our decision is correct. This cooperation will definitely bring new opportunities and development to Red Star Motors."
Things were just as Li Donglai expected. After careful consideration and intense internal discussions, Baolv Company finally agreed to the plan to build a joint venture factory.
When Jefferson came to the steel rolling mill laboratory again and brought the news, Li Donglai showed a confident smile on his face.
Jefferson's expression showed both his expectation for future cooperation and his admiration for Red Star Automobile's technical strength.
"Director Li, our Baolv Company has decided to accept your proposal to build a joint venture factory after careful consideration."
Jefferson solemnly said, "We also see the huge potential and opportunities brought by this plan. We hope that we can work together in future cooperation to create more competitive automotive products."
Li Donglai stretched out his hand and shook hands with Jefferson. "I'm glad to hear the news. I believe our cooperation will be a complete success."
As Baolv Company agreed to jointly build the factory, a series of preparatory work began in full swing. The teams from both parties began to communicate frequently to discuss specific matters such as the site selection, design planning, production process, and marketing of the factory.
Of course, as a researcher, Li Donglai was not interested in such commercial matters.
After he handed over the plan to build a joint venture factory to his comrades in the ministry, he took Ding Qiunan to the park for rowing.
Li Donglai knew that once the next project started, he would have little time to accompany Ding Qiunan, so he naturally wanted to spend time with Ding Qiunan at this time.
The lake was sparkling, and the boat was moving slowly on the lake. Li Donglai gently shook the oar, and his eyes fell gently on Ding Qiunan.
Li Donglai said softly: "Qiunan, you have been wronged these days. I am always busy with work and don't have much time to spend with you."
Ding Qiunan smiled slightly, his eyes full of understanding and love: "Donglai, I know your ideals and ambitions, and what you do is very meaningful. I don't feel wronged, but sometimes I worry that you are too tired."
Li Donglai felt warm in his heart: "With you by my side, I am not tired at all. When this project is over, I will take you to a farther place to relax."
Ding Qiunan's face showed a look of longing: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it. But don't put too much pressure on yourself. Although work is important, you should also pay attention to your health."
Li Donglai nodded: "I will. Qiunan, do you know? Every time I see you, I feel full of strength. You are the motivation for me to move forward."
Ding Qiunan's cheeks were slightly red: "Donglai, you always say such nice things. In fact, I am also proud of you. Everyone sees your efforts and achievements."
Just as Li Donglai and Ding Qiunan were immersed in the warm boating time, urgent help sounds suddenly came from the distance.
They followed the sound and saw a girl struggling in the lake.
Li Donglai did not hesitate and immediately paddled the boat to get closer to the girl. After reaching the position, he quickly took off his coat and jumped into the lake decisively.
The water in the lake was freezing cold, but Li Donglai did not flinch and swam quickly towards the girl.
The girl was exhausted and panicked. Li Donglai grabbed her and swam back to the boat with difficulty.
Ding Qiunan was extremely anxious on the boat and reached out to help pull the girl onto the boat. The girl looked pale and was in shock.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Donglai comforted softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."
After Li Donglai and Ding Qiunan sent the girl to the shore, they went home with peace of mind.
The girl's father, Zhang Tianshu, has a sales experience at a food station and is usually vigorous and decisive. When he learned that his daughter fell into the water and was rescued, he wanted to find the savior to express his gratitude in person.
Relying on the clues provided by the girl, Zhang Tianshu inquired all the way and finally found the courtyard house.
Yi Zhonghai came home from get off work and slowly walked into the courtyard with his tired body.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw a strange man pacing back and forth in the courtyard, looking around anxiously.
Yi Zhonghai suddenly felt doubtful. He frowned slightly, walked forward slowly, and asked in a slightly doubtful tone: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
When Zhang Tianshu heard the voice, he quickly turned around and saw Yi Zhonghai, a glimmer of hope instantly ignited in his eyes. He hurriedly said, "Hello, my name is Zhang Tianshu, and I'm here to find someone."
Yi Zhongshang looked Zhang Tianshu up and down, secretly guessing his purpose, but asked: "Looking for someone? Who are you looking for? I am familiar with most of the people in this courtyard, please tell me."
Zhang Tianshu said eagerly: "I found a young man named Li Donglai. He saved my daughter's life. I came here specifically to thank him."
When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his heart suddenly tightened. Did Li Donglai save someone?
If the residents in the compound knew about it, Li Donglai's prestige would be improved again.
Yi Zhonghai's eyes flickered slightly, but he pretended to be at a loss. He tilted his head slightly and said, "Li Donglai? There doesn't seem to be such a person in this yard. Are you looking in the wrong place?"
When he said this, Yi Zhonghai's expression was very sincere, as if he really had no impression of the name Li Donglai.
There was a look of disappointment on Zhang Tianshu's face, and he said with some disbelief: "No, my daughter said this is the courtyard house, doesn't he live here anymore?"
