No matter what, the current heads of the Hongguang Machinery Factory are still Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li. Therefore, if you cannot convince these two people to support the grand blueprint of the Hongguang Machinery Factory, you will not be able to succeed.

After talking in detail, Cao Zhiqiang discovered that in fact, these two people were not thinking only about themselves, nor did they want to continue to protect the factory and workers, but unfortunately the policies were changing too fast, and they could no longer withstand the pressure.

"Xiao Cao." Director Li blew out a smoke ring and said earnestly, "I want to keep the factory more than anyone else, and I want the workers in the factory to stay and continue working more than anyone else. I

I thought and did this before, but it’s a pity that time doesn’t wait for us.”

Next, Director Li told Cao Zhiqiang in detail the news he had recently learned from above.

It turns out that while Cao Zhiqiang was on a business trip to Japan, certain domestic policies were also quietly changing.

Specific to Hongguang Machinery Factory, the biggest incident is probably the lawsuit between the Peking City Government and the Ministry of Metallurgy.

In fact, the thing is very simple. As the population of Peiping increases day by day, the municipal government decides to expand the urban area and repair infrastructure, such as roads, water and electricity networks.

Among them, the old city area has been temporarily slowed down due to its complicated situation, while the areas north of the Second Ring Road and within the Third Ring Road are priority development targets.

By coincidence, Hongguang Machinery Factory is located just north of the Second Ring Road within the Third Ring Road. Not only does it occupy a large area of ​​land, it also occupies many traffic arteries and is close to several major highways.

This is understandable. After all, when Hongguang Machinery Factory was built in the past, it relied on road construction because it could quickly transport products and raw materials.

But now with the development of society, the city government has taken a fancy to the land of Hongguang Machinery Factory. It plans to open up the original factory building of Hongguang Machinery Factory and build a main road. The other land will be turned into residential and commercial land, with priority

Develop the economy and reduce pollution.

This idea is actually correct. After all, no matter how glorious the history of Hongguang Machinery Factory is and how much value it has created, we cannot deny the reality that it is an old heavy industry factory.

Since it is an old heavy industry, there must be serious air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution and other phenomena.

If the city wants to expand, the first rectification target is these factories that are close to the city center and pollute seriously, but the efficiency is average.

For example, the steel rolling mill where He Yuzhu works is currently in talks for rectification. It has been initially negotiated that it will be annexed by Shougang. Then the factory land will be returned to the city government and turned into ordinary residential and commercial land. The original factory equipment will be moved to more peripheral buildings.

The local factory was rebuilt.

Originally, the city government planned to do the same for Hongguang Machinery Factory. However, at the beginning, after all, it had to take care of the emotions of the employees in the factory, so it adopted some gentle measures, that is, it would not give the full subsidy, but only half.

This causes dissatisfaction among factory employees, allowing them to make better choices.

However, Factory Director Li set up a subsidiary publishing house through Cao Zhiqiang, and miraculously obtained a working capital. With half of the original government subsidy, he was able to pay full wages and continue to support the factory workers.

In this way, it would be impossible to gently persuade Hongguang Machinery Factory to leave.

So the relevant personnel of the municipal government simply took the lawsuit to a higher level and directly filed a lawsuit with the superiors of Hongguang Machinery Factory, that is, the Ministry of Metallurgy.

Since a more senior leader was found, and the city government's approach was good, in order to better develop the city, reduce pollution, and allow citizens to have a better life, the more senior leader approved it.

When things have reached this point, there is no room for change.

Therefore, the superior leaders have privately communicated with Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li that Hongguang Machinery Factory will launch a rectification plan by the end of this year at the latest, and then all the land in the factory will be released and transferred to other places for development.

Or directly engage in mergers and acquisitions and reorganizations with other large enterprises.

At present, it seems that merging into Shougang is the best choice. In this way, those skilled workers can join Shougang. Others with average skills or who are just dawdling can simply be packaged and sent to the city government, leaving the city government to worry about these people.

Employment issues.

In other words, by the end of this year at the latest, this factory will undergo a change of government, and Secretary Dong and Director Li will be unable to make a comeback.

Because this is an internal report, I cannot say anything casually, let alone talk to Cao Zhiqiang on the phone in Japan.

Only after Cao Zhiqiang came back did Secretary Dong and Factory Director Li ask him to talk about it.

In other words, whether it is Secretary Dong or Director Li, they all believe that the Hongguang Machinery Factory is already in the sunset and has no value in saving it.

Therefore, if we take advantage of this last moment and let Hongguang Machinery Factory allocate a piece of land to the joint venture company that will be established, we can also reap some benefits by then.

Of course, the land in the main factory area in the city cannot be given away, because this land must be given to the municipal government.

But Hongguang Machinery Factory also has a factory building next to Xinghuo Station, which was originally used as a warehouse.

Although that place is a bit far away, outside the East Fourth Ring Road, that piece of land actually belongs to Hongguang Machinery Factory, and the city government currently doesn't like that piece of land.

If you want to use that land to open a restaurant or hotel, that's definitely not possible. After all, it's too desolate.

But if it is used to build a factory, then there is no problem. After all, the transportation there is convenient, water and electricity are complete, and the area is really not small.

The reason is very simple. In addition to being a warehouse, it is also the main location used by the Hongguang Militia Battalion for training.

In the early days, there was as much land as was available outside the Fourth Ring Road. Many factories had a large amount of factory-affiliated land there.

If this land is contracted to Cao Zhiqiang's Hongguang Publishing House, and then negotiated with the Japanese side in the name of Hongguang Publishing House, there should be no problem.

Of course, this land and factory building are not given for free, they have to be paid.

In name, this money is used as subsidies to workers.

But this money can be discussed carefully or paid slowly in installments.

According to Factory Director Li, as long as Cao Zhiqiang can spend three million, the land and factory buildings can be contracted to Cao Zhiqiang for a forty-year lease.

It’s still the same sentence, what kind of songs should be sung in any era.

During this period, land prices were not high even in Beijing, let alone outside the Fourth Ring Road.

Therefore, although the land and factory buildings of Hongguang Machinery Factory near Xinghuo Station are large, based on the land price, three million is indeed a lot, which is much higher than the market price.

As long as there are no problems with the procedures and there is not too much fire sale based on the price at this time, it is not considered a fire sale of state-owned assets.

In addition, as long as the plan and contract are signed before the rectification at the end of the year, they are valid documents. No matter who takes over the Hongguang Machinery Factory afterwards, they must recognize the previous contracts, including the contract contract, otherwise they will break the rules.

Especially this kind of joint venture involving Japanese companies, we dare not break the rules.

Of course, the land ownership belongs to the state, and the factory only has the right to use it, so it can only be rented to Cao Zhiqiang's Hongguang Publishing House in the name of sublease, or even directly to Huaxia Audio and Video Company, owned by Cao Zhiqiang personally.

This suggestion obviously swayed Cao Zhiqiang.

Because the other party's proposal is too bold, it is equivalent to subletting the assets of state-owned enterprises to individual enterprises, which is unprecedented at present.

After all, it has only been a short time since the country has allowed the registration of individual businesses.

When this cake came down, Cao Zhiqiang was really stunned, so he decided to see where the factory was first.

As a result, when Cao Zhiqiang looked at the map, I thought, isn't this Chaoyang Park Nagada?

That's right, the factory buildings and barracks of Hongguang Machinery Factory at Xinghuo Station, if Cao Zhiqiang read it correctly, should be the location of the later Chaoyang Park.

Of course, there is no such park yet, not even the predecessor Shuizuizi Park.

Also, Cao Zhiqiang remembered that the predecessor of Chaoyang Park, Shuizizi Park, seemed to have been established in 1984. The original purpose was to build a park without walls.

The actual construction started in 1988, but at that time it was only preliminary construction and the progress was very slow.

It was not until 1995 that the construction of this park accelerated.

Now it seems that, not to mention Cao Zhiqiang's previous life, at least in this world, the land in Shuizizi Park is actually the barracks and warehouse area of ​​Hongguang Machinery Factory, which is really awesome.

However, this is quite reasonable. After all, the militia battalion of Hongguang Machinery Factory is quite large and has many anti-aircraft weapons. At its largest scale, there were even tens of thousands of armed militiamen.

Although the number of people in the Hongguang Militia Camp is now small, there are still about 3,000 people. If so many people want to train, they really need a place with mountains, water and woods.

What many people don’t know is that throughout the 1960s and 1970s, factory militia battalions required regular training.

This is what the saying goes: when you go out, you become a soldier; when you enter, you become a worker; you do your work in peacetime and train your troops in your spare time.

Although we have entered the 1980s, some things have not changed.

The warehouse area over at Xinghuo Station is usually watched by a few people, and some heavy firepower such as anti-aircraft guns are usually placed there.

It’s just that there are fewer and fewer target practice sessions. This is mainly due to lack of money.

If this land is "leased" to Cao Zhiqiang's Huaxia Audio and Video Company, then Cao Zhiqiang's Huaxia Audio and Video Company will instantly become a company with high-quality physical assets. When the time comes, we can negotiate with Taiyo Yuden Company and Daito Investment Company.

It will be much better.

What? The previous equity distribution negotiations? Those are just preliminary intentions, not the final decision.

To be honest, from a personal perspective, Cao Zhiqiang is really tempted.

But if we really do this, then the brand name of Hongguang Machinery Factory will be completely gone.

Because the land outside the Second Ring Road will definitely be handed over to the city government, if Hongguang Machinery Factory wants to continue to exist, it will have to retreat to the only remaining factory area in Xinghuo Station.

Of course, as far as tape factories are concerned, the brand name of state-owned enterprises is not actually used, and private enterprises are not impossible.

But in some industries, such as those involving military industry, this may not be something private companies can do.

After thinking again and again, Cao Zhiqiang finally gritted his teeth and said: "Two leaders, I appreciate your kindness, and I am not unmoved. But the problem is that even if what we do is reasonable and legal, it is not very authentic after all, and it is a bit suspected of taking advantage of loopholes.

Right?"

Factory Director Li and Secretary Dong looked at each other, then nodded together.

Indeed, no matter how nice what Director Li said, as long as he privately signed a "lease" contract with Cao Zhiqiang before the factory was rectified, the factory area outside the Fourth Ring Road would be handed over to Cao Zhiqiang personally.

This seems reasonable and legal, and there is no problem at all. After all, Cao Zhiqiang paid for it, and Director Li just rented out the vacant land.

But whether this is easy to do or not, it is ultimately an act of taking advantage of a loophole.

Once this matter becomes public, many people will definitely be dissatisfied and think that this is some secret conspiracy or a sale of national property at a low price.

Because if you don't do this, once the rectification begins, the entire Hongguang Machinery Factory will have to be rectified as a whole. At that time, the factory land at the Xinghuo Station will also be handed over to the municipal government for unified processing.

Now that Hongguang Machinery Factory has done this in advance, subletting a large area of ​​land in advance, and also introducing a foreign-funded enterprise to set up a joint venture factory, the city government will only recognize it with pinched noses, but it will definitely hate it in the bottom of its heart.
