Xi Yu didn't know how Chen Taizhong's talks with the province were going, but he was very sure that District Chief Chen didn't have a reputation for pulling people into trouble, so he agreed first, and then asked suspiciously, "Is everything going on over at Chaotian?"
"I don't care if Qi Zhiwen is okay, I'm back first anyway," Chen Taizhong replied with a smile, "If he dares to stop him, I'll beat him up."
"Taizhong, you have such a bad temper," Secretary Xi laughed dryly. He originally wanted to find out the inside story, but unexpectedly he got such an answer. Although it was reasonable, no information was leaked out at all, "I happen to have something to talk to you about."
discuss ."
What Xi Yu wants to discuss is the issue of cigarette kangs. In the past years, not many tobacco growers in Jingde were sad because the purchase price could not be raised. However, Beichong Cigarette Factory came into being. The tobacco purchase last year was considerate.
It also made everyone feel the benefits of having a cigarette factory in this city.
Therefore, this year the mountainous areas in Jingde are either growing tobacco or ramie, with more tobacco growing, because any real tobacco farmer can figure out that the Beichong Cigarette Factory is currently experiencing a shortage of raw materials.
Once the production capacity of the tobacco factory is expanded, it is impossible to completely alleviate the shortage of tobacco leaves within two or three years. It is not like growing ramie without worry, but it will flow throughout the province, which makes people feel a little unsure.
Since tobacco leaves are grown on a large scale, another issue has been put on the agenda. Tobacco leaves need to be kiln, and there are not enough tobacco kangs in Jingde. Building tobacco kangs costs money.
Secretary Xi hopes to get the support of Beichong, and his requirements are not high. A 10 million interest-free loan is guaranteed by Jingde's finance. The loan period is three years. In return, Jingde guarantees that the tobacco leaves produced in the county will not be leaked out.
This is not a problem. Chen Taizhong said on the spot that cooperation is mutual and Jingde and Beichong should work together, but... we still have to go to a meeting because there is a procedural issue.
Of course it is necessary to follow the procedures. Xi Yu smiled and nodded. For Jingde, the matter was settled.
At the moment, in the Beichong District Government, Chen Taizhong cannot be said to be making a single statement, but once he made a decision on decision-making, it was basically impossible to change the large-scale procurement for SARS prevention and control, and he carried it out forcefully.
But...how is the SARS incident developing now? Secretary Xi was a little curious. He had been in the hospital for so long, but Chen Taizhong didn't receive any calls, and no one said anything about it.
District Chief Chen is very calm about this, because there is an obvious lag period in the transmission of news between different levels. For example, who announced the epidemic area should have been late last night or early this morning, but due to the time difference, the domestic news received
The news is obviously lagging behind.
Since the importance of SARS had not yet been fully realized, the Haijiao Health Department called Zheng Wenbin under the banner of Zheng Wenbin to request the goods, and it was past ten o'clock in the morning.
In the following time, leaders at the provincial, ministerial and bureau committee levels were dispatched one after another. These were the masters at the top of the food chain. Even when Jiang Shifang made a phone call, it was far behind. As for it being said that it was self-denying, it was probably an accident.
.
Next, it is normal for Beichong to be quiet for a short time. It will take a day or two or even more for the news to spread among the prefectural and municipal leaders. The higher-ups have not made a clear position. The bureau committee and the Central Committee members can actively and independently
Yes, but it’s not appropriate to publicize it.
This is the isolation of information between different levels. No one did it deliberately, but it has become a common phenomenon in officialdom.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Chen Taizhong was running after dinner. Wang Yuanyuan hurried over and said, "The bus from the Haijiao Health Department has arrived. They said they don't have time to study in Beichong and asked us to send two people to follow the bus."
"They have to cover the labor costs and reception," District Chief Chen said calmly. Although Beichong is not bad in this regard, business is business, and brothers must also settle accounts.
"They wanted to take away 5,000 units, but they only brought a money order of 8 million," Wang Yuanyuan was unsure about this. "The people from the Health Department said they really couldn't come up with the money, so they had to pay the balance within a week."
This is because Zheng Wenbin did not tell the truth to the Haijiao Health Department. Chen Taizhong understood the cause and effect as soon as he heard it. If the Health Department really knew the meaning behind this matter, it would have scraped together the money even if it violated financial discipline and directly raised the money.
You can also get cash.
However, he was not in a hurry to make a decision. Instead, he glanced at the young and beautiful director of the Planning Commission and asked, "What are your plans?"
"Let me tell you... let them take away three thousand units first. If there is an emergency, three thousand units will be enough," Wang Yuanyuan hesitated and expressed her position.
"Then you go ahead and do it," Chen Taizhong nodded, thought for a moment and then added, "Tell them that it's useless to go to District Chief Chen, and... the supply of goods is tight, and if you pay late, the goods may be out of stock."
"Should the noise be a little quieter?" Director Wang asked again.
"Of course," Chen Taizhong glanced at her, "Zheng Wenbin didn't even tell the Health Department that much, how could I play with my character?"
I don't know when the news will spread further. With this melancholy, the young district mayor walked into the office.
The whole morning was uneventful. Apart from hearing that Qi Zhiwen was back, District Chief Chen did not receive any major news. However, around 10:30, when he went downstairs and was about to drive away, he heard a noise coming from the door of the district government.
.
When he went out, he saw two people, a man and a woman, standing there with small speakers and shouting. Next to them stood a pale-faced Wang Yuanyuan, and many people from Beichong were watching.
"No matter what happened, you two put down the speakers," Chen Taizhong stepped forward and spoke coldly, "otherwise you will disturb the order of government offices... Do you hear me?"
"District Chief Chen, you have to make the decision for us," the man said angrily, speaking Mandarin with an unknown accent, "I am from Jinghong Instrument Company, and Director Wang of the Planning Committee forcibly detained our goods.
Already."
"Don't be slanderous," Wang Yuanyuan's face sank, "I'm just asking you, have we signed a contract?"
"The contract has been signed, but you haven't paid for the goods yet," the man replied with a glare. "That means the execution has not started. If the execution has not started, it can be stopped naturally."
"I've never seen you so arrogant," Wang Yuanyuan replied with a cold face, "It was too late after signing the contract yesterday, and the bank couldn't issue a draft. I issued a draft to you early in the morning, but you didn't want it.
Or should I not give it?"
"After I signed the contract yesterday, I felt that the price was wrong." The man was also a bachelor, so he could say something so shameless, "I don't want to execute it today. We can get along and part ways, so there is no need for you to detain me."
Goods?"
"How much did it cost?" Chen Taizhong looked at Wang Yuanyuan expressionlessly.
"Three thousand and seventy-seven units," Director Wang replied in a low voice, "their previous price was four thousand and forty-four units."
Four thousand four minus five hundred, it should be three thousand nine, right? Chen Taizhong curled his lips speechlessly. His instructions yesterday really meant that Xiao Wang could take the opportunity to earn some money. Unexpectedly, she cut off another two hundred.
Two hundred for each unit, fifteen hundred for three hundred thousand. District Chief Chen was worried that if Xiao Wang was caught taking bribes, that would be his connivance. Hearing that this was not involved, his face sank, "It's Director Wang."
Force your hand to sign the contract?"
"Then this boy is so beautiful, he was held down by Director Wang," someone nearby yelled in Beichong dialect, but he hid in the crowd and did not show his face. The onlookers burst into laughter after hearing this.
"Our boss has instructed us not to sell it," the man replied plausibly.
"You're talking nonsense. You asked Mr. Zhou for instructions on the price yesterday," Wang Yuanyuan replied coldly.
"Come in and talk to me," Chen Taizhong turned around and walked back to the district government. It's not interesting for people to watch this kind of thing.
In fact, this matter is very simple. Wang Yuanyuan unexpectedly signed this order yesterday. People from Jinghong Company came to pick up the money order in the morning, and unexpectedly discovered that there was a truck loading infrared thermometers from the Forestry Bureau. They also knew that this was a warehouse.
So I went up to ask how much it cost.
The people from the Haijiao Health Department ignored him. Secretary Zheng ordered the purchase. No matter how cheap you sell it, I won’t ask you. The people from the Forestry Bureau were also very alert. They stepped forward to catch them. What were you doing?
We are also a manufacturer, Jinghong's. The man explained a few words. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. The company has always suspected that the price of infrared thermometers will increase, but there is no clear evidence. The current inventory has reached 3,500 units. This
I invested millions of dollars in capital, so I came up with some products. Firstly, I would revitalize the funds. Secondly, once there is a market, the company would have the money to increase production at any time.
Beichong had already started shipping. Thinking of Director Wang hastily signing a contract with him yesterday, he immediately called back to the company and reported to his boss.
Mr. Zhou is also very concerned about this matter. Jinghong Company is not a big company. If it can seize the SARS market, the company can reach a new level. Therefore, he even has a relationship with the Ministry of Health and can inquire about SARS at any time.
Latest trends.
But it is very regrettable that his relationship was really paid for in vain. Even the leaders of the ministry said that there is no more SARS. Who dares to talk nonsense and no longer wants their job?
After receiving the call, Mr. Zhou became alert again, and asked someone tactfully to find a very big boss. The boss didn't want to talk to him at first, but he heard that this was an infrared thermometer manufacturer, so he gave an understatement, "Get in touch right away."
Let’s go into mass production.”
I was cheated, I was definitely cheated. Mr. Zhou immediately called the employees and demanded forcible termination of the contract.
This man was more cautious when he arrived. The loaded van truck did not unload the goods and found a farmyard to park quietly. So he approached Wang Yuanyuan and asked to terminate the contract.
Director Wang took out the money order. I have already written it for you. If you want to terminate the contract...what else are you thinking about?
This person also couldn't agree. He reduced the price by 700 per unit and sold 1,500 units. The company's direct economic loss was 1 million zero. Although their production costs have dropped to less than 2,000 units,
Who would mind having too much money?
Seeing his persistence, Wang Yuanyuan asked him to sit and chat in a small bar.
The two of them sat for a while, and he was thinking about this beauty trap... It was so difficult to resist, but suddenly he received a call from the driver. Beichong's defense personnel rushed into the small courtyard and seized the goods! (To be continued.
