At the intersection, a man riding a bicycle stopped in front of the stop line, with one foot on the ground and his eyes watching the countdown of the red traffic light.
This is one of the most prosperous intersections in Jinbin City. There are hundreds of thousands of vehicles passing here every day, and there are also countless bicycles passing by.
Ye Shaofeng is one of these bicycles. Since he no longer has a car, Ye Shaofeng has been mainly riding bicycles.
Liu Hongxing had long said that he would let Ye Shaofeng drive his Jaguar first, but Ye Shaofeng refused. He would have to wait until Jinbin launched a new model together and he would be satisfied with the car produced by his own factory.
As long as a new car model is not released for a day, Ye Shaofeng will not drive for a day, and it is better to exercise by riding a bicycle all the time.
The light turned green, and Ye Shaofeng waited for the car to move forward. The bustling crossroads traffic was still very regular and there were no violations. The quality of the people in Jinbin City was still relatively high. This was consistent with the rumors he had heard before coming here. There are still some discrepancies.
After passing this intersection, walk along the Jinbin River and you will come to the downstairs of the Jinbin City Import and Export Trade Office Building.
This magnificent building is no less impressive than any provincial administrative unit's building, and no less impressive than any large company's building.
The security guard at the door is also very particular about quality, because when he came, Ye Shaofeng had already made an appointment in advance. He simply went to the security room to get a rank. After waiting for a while, a woman wearing a professional suit came to the door security room to pick up Ye Shaofeng in person. .
"Excuse me, are you Chairman Ye?"
"Yes, that's me,"
"Our director is already waiting for you in the office. Please follow me," the woman said with a professional smile and a slightly arrogant look in her eyes. Obviously, he didn't know how brilliant the Ye Shaofeng in front of him was. In fact, even if he knew, What can we do? The brilliance in other places does not mean the brilliance in Jinbin area.
Here, if you want to do a good job in Dongbin New District and be practical, you must burn high incense to the director of their office. If the incense cannot be burned here, I am afraid you will suffer a loss.
However, Ye Shaofeng's Jinbin FAW has done a great job, but he has never come here to burn incense or worship Buddha. Not only does he not have any unspoken human relations transactions with the Jinbin City Import and Export Trade Service Office, Ye Shaofeng even offended this place. people.
Who is the director here? Of course it's Duan Qidong. Duan Qidong is Duan Guodong's father. Ye Shaofeng's stay in Dongbin New District has seriously affected his son's status there. There have even been some very unpleasant head-on conflicts. Duan Guodong has already It was too much, so dad had to step in to suppress Ye Shaofeng.
The reason why Ye Shaofeng came this time can be traced back to three days ago.
A relatively backward country in neighboring countries negotiated with Jinbin FAW. Without any guidance from the government, Liu Hongxing secured the first batch of overseas orders for Jinbin FAW, and the order amount was relatively large.
The governments of neighboring countries are building high-level government infrastructure, and each unit must equip some vehicles. They cannot afford good cars, and other vehicles are not guaranteed to have a good reputation. In addition, Liu Hongxing has a friend who is the matchmaker, which just makes it happen. This led to their business cooperation with Jinbin FAW.
This first batch of cars requires 6,000 units. The market price of the cars is only 10,000 yuan. After taking into account their costs, taxes and other expenses, they can earn 30,000 yuan per car. Quickly, 6,000 units. That’s 180 million in revenue, which is definitely a huge amount of money for Jinbin FAW.
Moreover, if these orders are completed, the government will still conduct business cooperation with Jinbin FAW in the future. They are already interested in the luxury models that Jinbin FAW will launch in the future.
This first overseas order was very important, and Jinbin must complete it together. However, in a hurry, the car was finished and shipped. When he was about to leave the port, who knew he was stopped by the customs.
It was said that this batch of goods was unqualified and could not be exported.
To be honest, you don’t have the final say whether a product is qualified or not, and whether it can be exported. It’s the importing country that has the final say. It’s up to you at the customs to take care of what comes in. As long as what goes out does not violate the law, what about quality issues? Yes, you have no right to interfere.
What's more, the 6,000 cars selected by Ye Shaofeng are all the best, with very fine workmanship. They have first-class standards and first-class craftsmanship in any country. How come they are considered unqualified in the eyes of customs who are not professional in car manufacturing? What about the product?
The cargo ship has been docked at Jinbin Port for three days. They will absolutely not be able to leave the port without a customs clearance permit.
Liu Hongxing was extremely anxious these past two days. She ran around trying to find someone to ask her what was going on. In the end, she found the Dongbin New District branch of the General Administration of Customs. The people there told her We still have some friendship, so we didn’t hide it from him. He said, this is a document issued by the Jinbin City Import and Export Trade Service Office. Since they are joint law enforcement units, we can’t risk others’ face if they submit the document. We must Don't let the wearer pass through the customs.
But if you don't leave the customs, you have to pay the logistics company every day. If the ship doesn't leave, you will also have to pay for the phone calls. The money thrown away makes Liu Hongxing very distressed.
Only Liu Hongxing knew that this was Duan Qidong who deliberately suppressed them. He wanted to go to Duan Qidong in person. Duan Qidong found reasons to say that he had no time to talk to him. Finally, Duan Qidong's secretary told him that he wanted to let these batch of The goods should leave the port as soon as possible and ask your chairman to talk to the director.
So today, Ye Shaofeng rode his bicycle and walked for more than two hours from Dongbin New District to this service office.
This building is called a grand building. As you know, it is an office established by Jinbin City with its own characteristics. The administrative level is just a division-level office. The biggest official here, Director Duan Qidong, is also a division-level cadre. , but those who didn’t know better thought that this was the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It was magnificent and extremely rich.
How much illegal money has been taken into this office over the years, it is estimated that no one has come here, and no one dares to check them. Who knows that Qidong, the top handler here, and Duan Qinan, the current mayor of Jinbin City, are cousins of the same clan.
Ye Shaofeng wore relatively casual clothes, with khaki riding pants on the lower body, a woolen sweater on the upper body, a jacket with a straight collar, and brown casual leather shoes with laces.
When I walked into the room, my face was filled with vitality, as if I was a young high school student who was full of hope to get the admission notice from the university...
