Chapter 1260: The Great Hero, Serving the Country and the People
After breakfast, Zhou Mo arranged my clothes for a while before allowing me to go to work.
And when I faced all the behaviors she did towards me, I was actually very conflicted in my heart, and I didn’t want to have too much interaction with her.
But I promised her that after marriage, except not having sex, we would live like a normal couple.
When I came to the company, I started to deal with some tasks in the final stage of the bidding meeting.
Our new tender document has been produced and after final review, a foreign R&D team has also been found, which was hired at a high salary.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
We are confident in this bidding and determined to win the agency rights of new energy, which will play a key role in the future development of the group.
Of course, I also thought that if the bidding fails, I also have a second option, which is to cooperate with the company that successfully bids.
We have a professional technical team, a high-paying R&D team from abroad, and strong capital.
The group's assets have been frozen, but I believe it will be unfrozen soon. By then, will anyone dare to look down on us?
While I was busy, Yang Man suddenly came to my office.
She said to me: "Mr. Chen, there is a person at the front desk who said he is the general manager of Jinmao Energy and wants to meet with you. He said that he did not have an appointment with you. Would you like to meet?"
"Jinmao Energy?" I was stunned, and suddenly remembered that I had heard of this company at the last defense meeting of the tenderer.
I took a breath, thought for a moment and said, "Is he alone?"
"Yes, he is the only one who said he must see you."
I don’t know what the competitor’s purpose is in meeting me at this time. Is this to gather information?
But I'm not stupid. Even if I agree to meet him, I still can't tell him our situation!
After thinking for a while, I said to Yang Man: "Bring him in."
"OK."
After Yang Man exited, a moment later, there was a knock on the office door again.
After I said please come in, Yang Man opened the office door, and I immediately looked up at the office door.
The man standing at the door looked familiar. We met at the defense meeting last time, and I was quite impressed by him.
Because at that time when several other companies were laughing at us, he was the only one who sat there quietly and looked at the information and did not follow the booing.
My first impression of him was quite good, and he looked young, probably around forty years old.
After I got out of my desk and welcomed him into the office, he said to me very politely: "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time."
"No need to interrupt, what can I do for you?"
His face was solemn, as if he had a lot on his mind.
I pointed to the sofa and said to him, "Sit down first."
After he sat down, I said to Yang Man: "Yang Man, go make two cups of coffee."
Yang Man exited the office in response, and I immediately sat down on the sofa and said, "If you have anything to do, please tell me."
"It's like this. Tomorrow is the new energy bidding conference, but at this time I got a piece of news that is not very beneficial to us."
I frowned instinctively and asked him, "What's going on?"
"Do you know the company Zhongtai New Energy?"
I nodded. At the defense meeting, it was the person in charge of this company who criticized me the most. Of course I remember that.
He continued: "According to reliable information, Zhongtai New Energy has reached a consensus with the other two bidding companies, and they will strive for Zhongtai to win the bid."
"This," I gasped, "doesn't this violate the bidding rules?"
"The rules are set by people. As long as they don't form an alliance openly, no one will know."
I fell silent and began to feel anxious.
If this news is true, it will naturally be very detrimental to us.
After all, the other three companies have already formed an alliance, and no matter how good the bid document or the best technical means we have, it will be difficult to compete with the comprehensive strength of the three other companies.
After all, the companies that can participate in this bidding are not ordinary small companies.
After a moment of silence, I asked him: "Why are you telling me this?"
"That's why I came to talk to you today, I think."
At this time, Yang Man opened the office door and walked in. He subconsciously closed his mouth, as if what she was going to say next was extremely important.
Yang Man put two cups of coffee on the coffee table. It wasn't until she exited the office that he continued: "I want to cooperate with you."
"Cooperate with me?" I looked at him with confusion.
"Yes," he nodded seriously and said, "You must not let Zhongtai take the new energy lead. They are an investment company under the banner of new energy. In fact, they are selling dog meat with sheep's heads. Once this happens,
If the project falls into their hands, they will cash it out when the time comes, and the market for new energy will definitely be disrupted."
He spoke very seriously and had a very serious expression, which made me feel that he was not being alarmist.
Just how did he learn about these things?
I immediately asked him: "How do you know these things?"
He let out a long breath and said: "As early as the beginning of our participation in the bidding, I conducted an investigation on all the companies that entered the final bidding."
"So, you must have also investigated our company, right?"
He nodded lightly and said: "Although your company is not specialized in new energy work, I know that your focus is almost entirely on it now. It can be said that you have invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources. Moreover, I also know that
You have hired a professional R&D team from abroad."
His last words made my heart skip a beat. I had to suspect that there was a traitor within our company. After all, I had never disclosed this to the public.
While I was still puzzled, he said to me again: "You don't have to be nervous. What I know is a complete coincidence."
"How do you say that?" I didn't deny it.
He smiled lightly and said: "To be honest, one of the R&D teams you hired from abroad this time, one named David, was my former classmate in the United States."
I was shocked beyond measure. Is there really such a coincidence in this world?
In a daze, he said to me again: "But please don't worry, David didn't expose you on purpose. He actually didn't say anything. He contacted me after he came to China, I guess."
"Guess?"
"You must think it's impossible, but it's easy to guess. David has been engaged in the research and development of new energy sources since graduation. He has also been eager to come to China for development, but has never found a good project. This time, he came, and
I came to Chengdu again, so I conclude that you hired me."
I have to say that this man is very smart, and every word he says is very sincere.
Now that he already knew it, I had nothing to hold back. I smiled and said, "In that case, why doesn't the classmate you mentioned work for your company?"
"Two reasons. First, the leadership team of our company is too corrupt. Their thoughts are not on the research and development of new energy sources. They just want to win this project to make money for themselves."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't it all about making money?"
"No, new energy is not currently popular in our country. Many people are easily misled. We should advocate energy conservation and ensure that the poor can also enjoy the benefits of new energy."
For some reason, when I heard these words from him, I felt an inexplicable emotion in my heart.
Suddenly a sentence came to mind: A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people!
