Laolin Restaurant is not far from the police station. It is a private restaurant, but the owner used to be a master chef in a state-owned restaurant and he is very good at cooking.
With the reform and opening up, the market economy replaced the planned economy. Some people were reluctant to give up their iron rice bowl, but some people began to go overseas to do business.
Since opening this Laolin Restaurant, the boss has made much more money than before.
There was already a person sitting in the restaurant. When Gao Guobing and Gao Mingcheng walked into the restaurant, the person immediately came forward with a smile.
"The chief executive is here, please take a seat!"
He first gave up his seat to Gao Guobing, then looked at Gao Mingcheng and said with a smile: "Is this the nephew of Chief Gao? Ha, what a talent!"
When this man was sizing up Gao Mingcheng, Gao Mingcheng was also sizing him up.
This man was relatively young, about thirty, with parted hair and good spirits. Different from other people, he did not wear the popular Chinese tunic suit, but a suit and a pair of shiny leather shoes.
When he raised his hand, he revealed a watch on his wrist, but his fingers were stained with some black stains that could not be washed away. All in all, he looks like a successful person.
However, Gao Mingcheng had no impression of him.
"The chief executive is here, what are we going to eat today?" Lao Lin, the owner of the restaurant, came over in person and asked with a smile.
Among these people, Gao Guobing has the highest status, so he is naturally respected. Gao Guobing first glanced at the director of the private enterprise, who immediately signaled Gao Guobing to order.
So Gao Guobing said: "Serve all the dishes you are good at."
"Hey, okay, let me make you braised pork, pork belly, chicken and pork ribs and kelp soup." After announcing the menu, Lao Lin saw that Gao Guobing and the others didn't say anything else, so he went to work in the kitchen.
"Chief Gao, have some tea." The director of the private enterprise first poured a cup of tea for Gao Guobing, and then poured a cup of tea for Gao Mingcheng.
There was still some time before the food was served, so Gao Guobing began to introduce the two of them.
"Mingcheng, this is Su Tong, a young entrepreneur in our county. He founded an agricultural machinery factory and his business is doing very well. Su Tong, this is my nephew Gao Mingcheng. He is a young man who dares to think and do. Before Soon I also purchased some medicinal materials from the village and sold them at the camphor tree medicine fair."
"Su Tong, this is my nephew's first time traveling far away. Although he made a little money by accident, he is definitely not as sharp as you in running a business, so I have to take care of my nephew."
Gao Guobing's words both inside and outside showed that the relationship between him and Gao Mingcheng was extremely close, and he directly asked Su Tong to take care of Gao Mingcheng.
When Su Tong looked at Gao Mingcheng again, his attitude became more enthusiastic. He said quickly: "Captain Gao's nephew is just like my brother. I will definitely take care of him!"
In the first sentence, it seemed as if he was eager to drag Gao Mingcheng to work in his company, but in the next sentence, Su Tong suddenly started crying.
"Hey, Director Gao, let me tell you the truth, my little run-down factory may go bankrupt before next year!"
Gao Mingcheng couldn't help but look at him due to this emotional ups and downs. Are you afraid that you will rely on him?
Gao Guobing's face darkened, and he obviously had a bad guess.
People who dare to run private enterprises must be smart. When Su Tong saw this, he immediately explained: "Originally, it was appropriate to ask brother Mingcheng to work in the factory, but... in recent months, there have been no orders in the factory. There is almost no work left!”
"Isn't it? Isn't this the time for the rise of township and village enterprises?" Gao Mingcheng said subconsciously. In his impression, starting from this year, township and village enterprises will rise.
Next year, Huawei and Wahaha will also be established. The "Legendary Factory Director" Ma Shengli's journey to becoming a god is also widely circulated.
But after seeing the wry smile and helplessness on Su Tong's face, Gao Mingcheng immediately understood.
Township enterprises have risen, but not every township enterprise can rise! In a market economy, some people get rich and some go bankrupt.
Gao Mingcheng was originally thinking about why he had no impression of Su Tong, but now he suddenly understood that Su Tong's factory would probably go bankrupt in the future, so he had no impression of Su Tong.
"My dad was originally a level 6 fitter in a state-owned factory, and I am also a level 4 fitter. But in the past few years, I saw other people opening factories and making money, and I became very enthusiastic. In 1984, I I persuaded my dad to open the current agricultural machinery factory. Originally, relying on my dad’s skills and connections, the agricultural machinery factory also received orders at the beginning and made some money. But now..."
"To be honest, my dad has gone to work in another factory now. If I can't get orders again, I will have to work in another factory."
Su Tong's explanation finally ended with a sigh.
Gao Guobing frowned. He originally wanted to find a private enterprise to lead Gao Mingcheng, but the provincial Gao Mingcheng didn't know anything.
He approached Su Tong because Su Tong was young and might be able to talk to Gao Mingcheng. But he never expected that Su Tong would go bankrupt.
Now Gao Guobing is in a bit of a dilemma. He can't help Su Tong with the difficulties he encounters. He only knows how to investigate cases and doesn't understand corporate orders.
The atmosphere of this meal dropped visibly.
"Director Su, what products does your agricultural machinery factory mainly produce?" Gao Mingcheng's question broke the silence in the room.
Su Tong said quickly: "Don't call me the factory director, just call me by my name. Our factory is engaged in repairing agricultural machinery, manufacturing some simple farm tools and cooking utensils, and also producing some accessories for pressure cookers."
"Oh, have you ever considered joint venture?" Gao Mingcheng smiled and proposed a new concept.
Joint venture was not the first thing he proposed, but it was an inevitable process for the development of the times. The rapid rise of township enterprises is related to the market environment and joint ventures.
The so-called joint venture means that a private enterprise uses the brand of a state-owned enterprise, obtains the technical information of the state-owned enterprise, and then produces OEM products, and then gives the state-owned enterprise 5% of the profit.
To describe it in simpler terms, private companies suck blood from state-owned companies and then strengthen themselves. After private companies take away the market, some state-owned companies gradually go bankrupt.
Therefore, when Gao Mingcheng heard that Su Tong's factory had no orders and was about to go bankrupt, the concept of joint venture suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Joint venture?" Su Tong looked at Gao Mingcheng with blank eyes.
Therefore, Gao Mingcheng began to instill in Su Tong the concept of joint venture, as well as related operability, future prospects, etc.
After eating this meal, Su Tong felt like he was enlightened, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that his body was suspended in mid-air, and he did not feel down to earth.
That is, I seem to understand, but I also seem not to understand.
