Sea rice that can adapt to most saline-alkali lands in China is of great significance.
However, after failing to break through the 6% salt content for so long, Chen Jingrui was full of doubts about the sudden appearance of rice seeds that could produce high yields in saline-alkali soil with a 3% salt content.
As the vice president of Huaguo Seed Group, he has always had a strange feeling lingering in his heart recently.
Major central enterprises will move away from Yanjing to ease the congestion in the capital.
Huaguo Seed Group is naturally no exception. Central enterprises like them can be said to be marginal central enterprises. Logically speaking, they should be among the first or second batch to be relocated.
If you move early, you can choose a location, but later you may only be assigned a moving location.
Therefore, the relocation site selected by Huaguo Seed Group is in Hainan. This decision passed the resolution of the board of directors and was also approved by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.
As a result, before the move was about to take place, they were suddenly stopped and told not to move yet. Chen Jingrui thought at the time that the chairman had gone to work in the ministry, so he could stay in Yanjing.
As long as central enterprises can stay in the capital, they will never want to go to other counties or cities, not even Xiongan.
Back then, Longfor Real Estate in Shancheng had two headquarters, one in Shancheng and one in Yanjing. But why were the leaders’ offices in Yanjing most of the time? What does it mean to make money by running the department?
If you understand the logic, you can understand why the new district near Yanjing cannot be completed.
After the group no longer had to move to Hainan, which was so far away, Chen Jingrui was a little happy. It was better to do less than to do more.
Then there was a major personnel adjustment within the group. Basically, the middle managers were replaced. Now when the middle managers below come to him to sign, there are no familiar faces.
You must know that Chen Jingrui has been working in the Huaguo Seed Group for more than ten years. In the past, he could at least name every middle-level person he knew, not to mention how familiar he was.
Now he can't even say his name.
Many scientific research projects of the company have also been stopped. Although the research institute affiliated to Huaguo Seed Group is not well-known, it has three academicians.
Many scientific research projects have been stopped these days. Originally, the research institutes under the Huaguo Seed Group were mainly responsible for research and development of seeds.
As a result, seed research and development projects have now been stopped, and most seed research and development projects such as rice, corn, wheat, and vegetables have been stopped.
Only some projects studying the negative effects of genetically modified seeds, such as drug resistance and genetic contamination, continue to operate.
What made Chen Jingrui even more puzzled was that the chairman had also been replaced.
"Mr. Liu, welcome to work at Huaguo Seed Group. I learned a lot every time you came down to hold meetings with us." Chen Jingrui was extremely polite.
Huaguo Seed Group is a secondary company under Huaguo Chemical Import and Export Group.
It is equivalent to Huaguo Chemical Import and Export Group being a first-level central enterprise, and Huaguo Seed Group being a second-level central enterprise.
As a result, the general manager of a first-level central enterprise was transferred to serve as the general manager of Huaguo Seed Group. Chen Jingrui was very polite on the surface.
When he returned to his office, he was filled with speculation: "Mr. Liu lost the internal struggle and was marginalized by the chairman?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Even if he is marginalized at this level, he cannot be transferred to a second-tier company to be the general manager. At most, he will be transferred to be the union chairman."
"A person can be marginalized, but his rank cannot be demoted, right?"
Generally speaking, state-owned enterprises will not be demoted, especially first-level central enterprises. The general manager of a first-level central enterprise will be demoted at most, and may not have real power.
Letting the general manager become the chairman of the labor union is already the biggest marginalization. After the new chairman of a domestic state-owned securities company took office, the former chairman became an expert consultant. No real power but the treatment remains the same.
The one who really has a broad path is to be transferred from the general manager of a central enterprise to a local governor, or a governor of a core province.
"The problem is that he came to Seed Group to be the full-time general manager and chairman, not concurrently."
"This matter is completely inconsistent with the correct procedures and is completely illegal."
After Chen Jingrui returned home, he didn't even bother to eat. He went back to his study and planned to review it carefully.
"What's wrong? Let's eat first!" his wife asked.
Chen Jingrui waved his hand: "It's something big. I need to go to the study to think about it."
Whenever big things happen, you need to meditate. This is Chen Jingrui's consistent rule of thumb. The bigger the big thing, the less anxious you are and the more calm you have to be.
"When the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China came to announce the appointment just now, Mr. Liu had no expression on his face, but from my observation, at least he didn't feel like he was despairing of losing the struggle."
"I can even feel the fire in the other person's eyes. It's not easy for someone over sixty to see the fire in his eyes."
"It's fighting spirit."
"First the relocation was stopped, and then the middle floors were replaced."
"Then sea rice seeds were suddenly sent by the Institute of Agricultural Sciences. Then today the chairman suddenly changed, and the person he replaced was a higher-level leader."
After Chen Jingrui listed these things on a time schedule, he realized that sea rice seeds were the key.
"After the research and development of sea-water rice seeds reaches a certain level, Huaguo Seed Group will take on the task of promoting sea-water rice, and then there will be a big change."
"But it's still very contradictory. Unless Huaguo Seed Group is upgraded to a first-level state-owned enterprise, it is impossible for General Manager Liu to come down and become the general manager."
“Can a first-level state-owned enterprise be supported by sea rice seeds alone?”
It is not an ordinary difficulty for a second-level subsidiary central enterprise to become a first-level central enterprise. If you don't have extraordinary ability, you will definitely not be able to do this.
Moreover, if the second-level subsidiaries of central enterprises want to become the first-level central enterprises, there is a high probability that the second-level subsidiaries of many different central enterprises will be separated from the first-level central enterprises to which they belong and re-merged into one first-level central enterprise.
A second-level subsidiary was directly transformed into a first-level central enterprise. In Chen Jingrui's memory, such a thing had never happened in China.
Chen Jingrui thought that he had finally smoothed out his logic. He originally wanted to use his connections to find out if any other state-owned enterprises wanted to divest secondary subsidiaries, but then he thought about not doing so when it came to his own company.
"For the promotion of sea rice, second-level central enterprises should be enough. As for first-level central enterprises?"
"Or should we say that chemical import and export should be split into two companies, with the other one dominated by Huaguo Seed Group?"
“Either way, this is a great opportunity for me.”
The vice presidents of second-level central enterprises are not the same as the vice presidents of first-level central enterprises. The vice presidents of first-level central enterprises are one level higher than the general managers of second-level central enterprises.
Chen Jingrui didn't expect that one day the tide would rise for him.
Therefore, he warned himself repeatedly in his heart that at this time, he could not make any more mistakes.
Whether it is a merger or upgrade of central enterprises, they all have huge interests, and Chen Jingrui does not want to miss a move at this time.
Chen Jingrui's judgment was correct. Not long after, all the financial sectors of the Chemical Import and Export Company were spun off and merged with the Huaguo Seed Group Company.
Huaguo Seed Group Company became a first-level state-owned enterprise.
