After standing there quietly for a while, Zhou Zhiming quickly tossed the thought to the back of his head. What Lin Qing said just now was not a bad thing for him. If he could really facilitate the cooperation between Ford and Jiangqi, it would be a solid political achievement. Even if it did not work out in the end, it would not affect him much. In this case, he did not need to care about whether Lin Qing had other intentions.
Zhou Zhiming thought to himself and relaxed. It was not that he wanted to be so paranoid, but he had to be more cautious when facing a woman like Lin Qing.
Lin Qing's visit to Zhou Zhiming did not attract much attention, because there were too many people visiting Zhou Zhiming every day. No one would deliberately pay attention to a woman. Moreover, although Lin Qing was the Vice President of Gray Group in the Greater China Region, as long as one was not in this industry, no one would recognize her.
While Zhou Zhiming was thinking about Lin Qing, Lin Qing, who was leaving in a car, also had a similar conversation.
Sister Lin, is this Chen Xing really worth the effort to rope in? The person who asked the question was Lin Qing's assistant, a beautiful woman in her twenties.
It is not a question of whether it is worth it or not. The organization does things according to the rules. We will rope in Chen Xing according to the standards he has reached. Lin Qing smiled.
I remember that you have tried to rope him in a few times, but you all failed.
It is not considered a failure, but this person is indeed not that easy to rope in. The evaluation I gave him to the organization was that he is not easy to get close to. Lin Qing shook her head.
It is fine that he is not easy to get close to. Didn't the organization give up on him previously? Now, it is even more difficult to get close to him again. The woman pouted.
The more difficult it is, the more challenging it will be. Previously, the organization gave up on him because Chen Xing entered the disciplinary system. In addition, my evaluation of him is that he is not easy to get close to, so the organization did not want to take the risk. Now that Chen Xing has returned to the local government, his career has improved, and his potential has greatly increased, the organization's evaluation of him has increased. Naturally, we have to work harder. Lin Qing smiled.
Sister Lin, what is the evaluation that the organization gave him now? The woman asked curiously.
Haha, Xiao Lan, this is confidential. Don't ask this kind of question next time. Did your previous training go to waste? Lin Qing glared at him in annoyance.
Okay, pretend I didn't ask. After the woman finished speaking, she focused on driving. After thinking for a while, she added another sentence. Sigh, the organization is made up of those brawny, simple-minded Caucasians. Outsiders like us can only serve as cannon fodder.
Who told us to walk on this path? Lin Qing's expression darkened. Once she took this step, there was no turning back.
The car fell into silence. Neither of them said anything. The occasional honking from outside broke the silence in the car. Lin Qing raised her hand to look at the time and fell into deep thought.
Many days passed. Chen Xing had not expected that the Provincial Government would be able to pull some strings and attract a famous multinational automobile manufacturer like Ford. This surprised and delighted Chen Xing. In terms of reputation, technology, and financial strength, Huaqi was undoubtedly not on the same level as a multinational automobile manufacturer like Ford. In fact, a local automobile manufacturer like Huaqi had relied on joint ventures with foreign automobile manufacturers to slowly accumulate a certain amount of technology and funds, which were then used to support their own domestic brands.
An Ding. Good news. The Provincial Government is helping us to pull some strings. The people from Ford Company are coming over to discuss cooperation. They had already sent us an official letter. Chen Xing got the news and called Liu Anding over immediately.
Compared to Chen Xing, Liu Anding was stunned when he heard the news. Mayor, our cooperation with Huaqi is about to come to an end. What will happen to Huaqi if we suddenly attract Ford? What will they think?
Sigh … That's true. Chen Xing slapped his forehead. Although he was happy, Chen Xing calmed down after hearing Liu Anding's words. After thinking for a while, Chen Xing smiled bitterly. This news from the Provincial Government came at the wrong time. If it had come earlier, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to visit those automobile manufacturers and negotiate with Huaqi for so long.
That's right. Liu Anding smiled bitterly. If he had been able to negotiate with Ford directly from the start, he would have been happier. As long as one wasn't an idiot, they would know that establishing a joint venture with a famous multinational automobile manufacturer would have a better future than working with a domestic automobile manufacturer. Just look at the domestic automobile market. Cars with the same specs and class would always be more expensive than domestic brands. However, it was the joint venture brands that were the most popular.
Mayor Chen, our negotiation with Huaqi is about to be completed. If we continue to negotiate with Ford at this time and the people from Huaqi find out, they will think that we deliberately stood them up. If they are infuriated and refuse to negotiate, then we will suffer a huge loss. If we fail to negotiate with Ford in the end, then we will really lose everything. Liu Anding said calmly.
That's true. But Ford had already sent us an official letter, and the Provincial Government had pulled some strings to invite them. We can't just reject them. Chen Xing slapped his forehead. At first, he thought it was a good thing. But after hearing Liu Anding's words, Chen Xing felt that the City was in a dilemma.
Anding, do you have any suggestions? Chen Xing turned and asked Liu Anding.
Mayor, I don't know what to do. Liu Anding smiled bitterly and shook his head. I am happy to be able to negotiate with Ford. But we can't just give up on Huaqi. Also, we might not be able to negotiate with Ford.
This is why we are in a dilemma. If Ford is willing to cooperate with us, we can just give up on Huaqi. At most, we will just be scolded behind their backs. But now, we are in a dilemma. Chen Xing sighed helplessly. Both of them were silent.
Both of them were silent. After some time, Chen Xingcai suddenly slapped his thigh. Look at how stubborn we are. Our thinking has gone into the wrong direction. Actually, we don't need to worry about this now. If the people from Ford want to come over, we will still go and receive them. We will also tell Huaqi the truth. We will not hide anything and let them know that we are at least honest. If the people from Ford come over for an inspection, it might make Huaqi feel a sense of crisis and make them give in on the terms of the negotiation.
Liu Anding thought for a while and nodded. This is also feasible.
