Chapter 219: Helping Seedlings to Promote Development
The company leaders here turned their attention to Lin Johnson and Lin Xiangrong, and the excitement was hard to express.≤,
Lin Xiangrong was also confused and was a little scared by everyone, so he asked Lin Johnson: "Johnson, what's going on? Your foreign-funded company really wants to invest so much money to drive a taxi company in China?"
Lin Qiang-Chengsheng nodded and explained to everyone, saying, "Yes! Our company does have this plan. We not only drive a taxi company in Beijing but also in Shanghai and Yangcheng. Our idea is to gradually establish a taxi company across the country. So, the leaders here, we will continue to purchase Jetta cars produced by your car company, not only these 90,000! When the taxi company grows bigger, it will be 100,000 and 200,000!"
Hearing the amazing words Lin Johnson said made everyone in the conference room even more surprised. Someone asked suspiciously: "Then will always use foreign exchange for purchases in the future? Also, can you be the master of foreign-funded enterprises?"
Lin Johnson shrugged and said, "Now I can't prove it. You will know if it can be done. We will negotiate with the comrades in the central government and sign the agreement, and you will see it then!"
The vice president who asked the question saw that Lin Qiangsheng answered this way had nothing to ask. Comrade Qi Jinping rushed here from the capital, and it was obvious that the upper class came with great sincerity.
Qi Jinping said a few words to Li Gang, and Li Gang turned to everyone and said, "Comrade Lin Xiangrong and Comrade Lin Johnson, please stay here, everyone else can go out!"
After hearing the general manager's orders, everyone stood up and walked out of the conference room. Although everyone still had questions, it was obviously not the time to dig into the bottom line.
"Liang Qiangsheng doesn't know what position he has in a foreign company, and he can actually represent foreigners to talk to the central government here!" Someone said in confusion and surprise.
"Yes, I've known that the salary and benefits of foreign capital are good for a long time. I didn't expect that Lin Johnson could be half a leader in a foreign capital company. He has reached this level and what level he has to do!" Another person said with emotion.
Currently, Bincheng Automobile Company, Heike Company and newly established Harfei Automobile Company, which is still training equipment installers. These three companies are well-known hot spots in Bincheng. Both ordinary people and children of leading cadres want to work in these three companies.
However, Binqi and Harbin Auto are at least state-owned enterprises, and have some connections with the city. If you want to join these two companies, you can still come in to work as long as you can find a relationship. However, as a foreign-funded enterprise, the system of Heike Company is much stricter, and they rarely sell favors and don’t care about the face of the small leaders. Of course, no foreign-funded enterprises dare to provoke these days. A small matter may rise to foreign affairs and attract the attention of foreign affairs units. How can we get into trouble if we hide?
"Comrade Lin Johnson, let's talk about it thoroughly today. I have a few questions to ask you!" Qi Jinping said to Lin Johnson.
Lin Johnson nodded and said, "Okay, ask, I will definitely tell you everything!"
Qi Jinping asked in confusion: "Do you really have such great confidence in the domestic taxi market? You have to invest huge amounts of money to establish a huge taxi company in China. At present, this is an industry that is difficult to make a profit!"
Lin Qiangsheng nodded seriously and said, "I believe that the domestic taxi industry has a great future for development! With the increase in the income of domestic residents, especially in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and some coastal cities, due to their superior geographical conditions and open thinking, many households worth 1,000 yuan or even 10,000 yuan! They will inevitably want to choose a more developed means of transportation when traveling, which not only improves work efficiency but also shows their status. At this time, the taxi industry has the conditions for development! The taxi industry in our country has a slow start and develops slowly, like many cities, there are even no taxis. I think it is the time to enter the taxi industry now. I believe that as long as there is a reasonable management system, you can make a profit quickly!"
Entering the taxi industry can not only do this. If you control the taxi industry early, then Lin Johnson will indirectly control the domestic automobile industry!
There is no restrictions on individual car purchases in China, and it is impossible for automobile companies to develop greatly. Because during the planned economy period, buying cars requires approval from local governments. People who come to buy cars will never be individuals but units. They come to the car company to pick up cars with notes. Car companies often cannot see cash in this transaction. Local governments may send money to automobile companies later, which is quite satisfying. If local governments encounter unhappy local governments will not pay the car company for a long time. If there are too many such places, automobile companies will set up a huge debt collection team to collect debts across the country. Perhaps local governments will take all kinds of supplies to deal with automobile companies, which adds a huge burden to automobile companies!
In the planned economy, a factory will often grow bigger and bigger. There are everything in this factory, schools, hospitals, shops, and kindergartens. Basically, all materials can be digested. The tens of thousands of employees in a factory are completely an independent small society.
But if the newly established new companies like Binqi are subconsciously looking forward to building a modern enterprise, they naturally cannot develop like planned economic enterprises. If the factory grows bigger and bigger, it will eventually be like the old domestic state-owned enterprises. Not only will the superiors blame them, but they will also feel that they are very failures!
If the domestic taxi industry is controlled, if the number of taxis nationwide is calculated as 1 million, the automobile company will have a production and sales volume of 1 million, which will meet such a large total automobile manufacturing volume, and the domestic automobile industry will be completely developed!
Automobile companies can not only obtain development funds, but also maximize the confidence of the country in developing the automobile industry, injecting a booster into the domestic automobile industry, and allowing the central leaders to develop cars more firmly! Don’t call the car industry as the focus of development as in history in the early 1980s, and in 1982 and 1983, import cars began to be imported on a large scale. The national leaders initially shouted a few years of slogans, but a few years later, they saw the development speed of the domestic automobile industry like a turtle climbing. The upper class immediately lost confidence in developing cars, and in the end no one mentioned the car industry as a pillar industry of the national economy!
Lin Johnson wants to pull seedlings to help grow, and when no one dares to take smuggled cars on a large scale, he uses huge orders to develop China's car industry! Taking advantage of the huge demand in the taxi industry, he will help domestic car companies and give them a healthy and rapid development path!
At the same time, Lin Johnson has a deeper purpose. Controlling the taxi industry is equivalent to indirectly extending his hands to the domestic tourism and energy industries.
Taxis can communicate with many places, from airports to hotels, and tourist destinations. Gasoline is required during taxi driving, which requires a cooperative relationship with the domestic energy industry. There are no strong monopoly companies in China as three barrels of oil. As the biggest customer, it can certainly have an impact on the domestic energy industry!
Of course, Lin Johnson won't tell anyone about these things, because the relationship is too important. His own ideas can affect too many affairs and characters. If others understand their intentions now, they will definitely kill themselves in the early stages of ambition. Therefore, Lin Johnson only mentioned some outlook for the taxi industry with Qi Jinping.
Qi Jinping nodded and said, "The recent economic situation in China is improving. Although there are some setbacks now, the overall economic environment has improved significantly compared with previous years! Some ordinary people on the coast have become richer, and they have indeed had higher pursuits for life! The upper-level leaders hope that you can fully plan the taxi company. If it really doesn't work, it can develop slowly. Your country is still optimistic!"
Seeing Qi Jinping smile, Lin Johnson was extremely surprised. Did Qi Jinping’s meaning be that the central leaders would not pursue his past?!
"Thank you Comrade Qi for your concern. I also hope to contribute to the development of the country! The construction of taxi companies can not only enrich the domestic economic construction, but also promote the development of the domestic sedan industry to the greatest extent. The two complement each other! Our domestic automobile industry is a backward, and we can only find ways to find opportunities to develop. Only in this way can we catch up with the leading position of the world's automobile industry!" Lin Qiangsheng said with emotion.
Qi Jinping nodded in agreement, looked at Li Gang and Lin Xiangrong and smiled and said, "This idea is very good and has given me a lot of inspiration! I also think that the taxi industry can be matched with the car manufacturing industry, and the development of the two industries will have a great promoting effect!"
He continued to smile and said, "I also hope that Lin Johnson, you can develop the taxi industry well. As a big country, you should have a developed taxi industry! I hope you can develop it well, combining advanced foreign experience and management methods!"
Lin Johnson thought, this is the support of this person! He has already had a good start in cooperation with this person!
Lin Johnson stood up excitedly and immediately replied loudly to Qi Jinping: "Yes! I will definitely work hard!"
Several people looked at Lin Johnson's expression and smiled at the same time. In this atmosphere, they easily forgot that Lin Johnson was actually the object of their negotiations. (To be continued...)
