Chapter 141: Those who stand on their feet cannot stand, and those who stride cannot walk (23)

the next day.

Su Mingzhe got up, finished his morning exercise, and prepared breakfast. Yang Xue had not gotten up yet, so he had to eat breakfast by himself and go to work.

"Baby, I'm going to work. I've put breakfast in the rice cooker for you. Remember to get up and eat."

"Ah."

Yang Xue was still a little sleepy. Her boyfriend whispered a few words in her ear, which made her ears feel itchy. She simply grabbed the air-conditioned quilt and covered her head with it.

"This stinky girl!"

Su Mingzhe didn't disturb his girlfriend's rest as he still had a lot of work to do today.

A famous person once said that if you stand in the right place, even a pig can fly.

As we enter the 21st century, it’s time for the flying pigs to come down to earth.

Many companies, which were originally growing rapidly, suddenly stopped.

Some people say that this is because China joined the WTO, integrated with the world, and was suppressed by the Fortune 500.

This is pure bullshit.

If you run a company normally, it will be suppressed because of joining the WTO, and eventually the company will be destroyed.

Why is the government so eager to go out and connect with the world?

The real reasons that led to their downfall should be the two reasons that "those who stand cannot stand, and those who stride cannot move."

He who stands on tiptoe cannot stand.

What this means is that it won't work for a person to compete with others by standing on tiptoe.

Trans people can’t.

This means that if a person tries to travel by running, he cannot last long.

When China joined the WTO, some domestic companies made these two mistakes.

The first type is those who rely on clever tricks to get by, attempting to compete with other companies that have been built with great effort. However, they end up exposing their own weaknesses and are eventually abandoned by consumers.

The other group believes that they are already very strong and can rely on their current advantages to continue to move forward in great strides. However, they forget the principles of "hardness cannot last long" and "hardness and flexibility must go hand in hand", and are eventually defeated by other companies.

Wanbao Shengtai made both mistakes.

First of all, Wanbao Shengtai has been relying on relationships to attract projects for a long time, which is unfair competition in itself. Once the backing is gone, its competitiveness will be instantly left behind by others.

Secondly, Wanbao Shengtai has only a single project portfolio. The reason why it topped the list of real estate developers in Yanjing is because it blindly borrowed money from banks to attract projects, and its business became bigger and bigger. Once a problem arises and the capital chain breaks, the company will collapse instantly.

Now that we know the problems of Wanbao Shengtai, it is not difficult to solve them.

"My prince, why are you here just now?"

Liang Zhaowei was waiting for Su Mingzhe at the door and started complaining as soon as they met.

"What's wrong with you? Why don't you call me when you have something to say?"

Su Mingzhe opened the door and took Liang Zhaowei into the office. Liang Zhaowei directly explained the reason:
"My Lord, have you leaked the news of our company's relocation a long time ago?"

"Of course, otherwise, how could so many first-tier cities be willing to discuss cooperation with us?"

Su Mingzhe is talking business. Since he is doing business, of course he wants to maximize profits.

"Then you should have told me in advance," Liang Zhaowei said with a bitter look in his eyes. "I thought this was done quietly. I just contacted the directors of the two offices yesterday, and a leader called me and asked me to talk."

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Of course we are talking about why our company has to move away."

Su Mingzhe smiled slightly, obviously he had expected this result.

Although real estate companies like Wanbao Shengtai are considered industry leaders, the government will certainly not care too much about them, because if Wanbao Shengtai leaves, there are still ten similar real estate developers waiting to enter the market to fill the vacancy.

But Renren and Jinlong Software are different. They are in the IT Internet field, truly high-tech industries.

As a social networking platform, Renren currently ranks first in the number of active users in China, and its monthly revenue has reached more than 1 billion yuan, making it one of the leading Internet giants in China.

At the same time, its annual tax payment has reached billions, making it a veritable big taxpayer.

How could local leaders be willing to let go of such an Internet company?

What's more, there is also a Golden Dragon software.

Jinlong Software's monthly turnover is even more impressive than Renren's, reaching a terrifying 5 billion, and it is also a major contributor of profits and taxes.

But what’s even more amazing is that Jinlong Software’s IT technology level is ranked first in the world in the industry.

What does it mean that this technology level ranks first in the world?
Let me put it this way. At the beginning of the 21st century, there were no more than 20 companies in the country that ranked first in technology in the world's high-tech industry.

Among these less than 20 high-tech enterprises, more than 80% do not have their headquarters in Yanjing.

Therefore, Jinlong Software is a movable signboard for Yanjing.

The Yanjing government is not stupid. How could they allow a company ranked first in the world in terms of technology to leave their territory?

Su Mingzhe was well aware of this and knew that the Yanjing government would not allow him to move away.

But I just want to make some noise.

If you don't make a fuss, few people will know that you have a temper.

All the cats and dogs came running to him, playing and barking.

How could such an outstanding person like me waste time with some cats and dogs?

Liang Zhaowei was a little anxious when he saw Su Mingzhe just smiled and said nothing:

"My dear prince, please say something. How should I respond to them?"

"No need to reply, they will understand it themselves."

Su Mingzhe smiled faintly. He believed that what he asked Zhang Shanxin to do yesterday had already reached the ears of those government leaders.

"Just keep busy with your work."

Liang Zhaowei was shocked: "Still contact those offices?" "Keep contacting them. There are more and more sandstorms in Yanjing. The real estate industry will definitely move away. As for Renren and Jinlong Software, let's talk about it first and see what the conditions are."

Su Mingzhe had made up his mind, relying on his young age, to throw a tantrum in front of the big shots.

Who isn't a child yet?

Liang Zhaowei left with a nervous mood and continued to contact offices in other cities.

At this time, the government was holding a special meeting to discuss the relocation of Wanbao Shengtai.

First of all, there must be something wrong with the construction site of Wanbao Shengtai that was sealed off by various departments.

But the problem is not serious, and it is far from the point where work needs to be stopped.

So it is easy to draw the truth: someone wants to mess with Wanbao Shengtai.

So who wants to mess with Wanbao Shengtai?

Why did Wanbao Shengtai contact other cities and even move away as soon as it was bullied?
Combining the information they had, several leaders unraveled the truth slowly.

A few clerks who thought they had power, under the instigation of certain people, were exposed for taking bribes from various companies.

This kind of thing is very common.

A company with assets of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions was extorted by a small clerk.

For netizens, it is simply impossible and even more bizarre than a fairy tale.

But it is what it is.

This involves issues related to the operation of various government departments, and it is not convenient to reveal too much.

Just give a simple example.

It is reasonable for officials from the health department to come and inspect hygiene, right?
When the clerk saw mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches and rats in the kitchen, he directly ordered rectification and issued a rectification notice. Is there anything wrong with that?

After the construction site was rectified, the health department came to inspect for the second time and found more problems. This was considered as repeated failure to change, and the people who came to inspect had the right to directly stop the construction at the site.

Therefore, if a small clerk wants to take bribes, there are various ways to do so, and he does not need a high-ranking official position at all.

The point is, if you don't want to be taken advantage of by a small clerk, you need to show some strength.

Here we have to consider another question: does it cost more to show strength?

A small clerk may just want you to take him out for some entertainment, and if you give him a bribe of a few hundred thousand, he will let you go.

However, as a large group company, if it wants to show its strength, the price it may pay is millions or even tens of millions.

Therefore, sometimes, in order to avoid "losing the big picture for the small", companies with a scale of tens or even hundreds of billions will try their best to meet the requirements of these small clerks.

Just as Su Mingzhe was throwing a tantrum, the government quickly took action.

Sometimes, it is impossible for the government to admit its mistakes.

Even if some clerks abuse their power to bully others, they will just deal with it themselves and will not apologize to a company for it.

Therefore, Lin Yuanxing was interviewed by several leaders.

After Lin Yuanxing came back in the afternoon, he called Su Mingzhe to his office and told his son.

Renren and Jinlong Software will appear on the list of star enterprises supported by the government at the end of this year.

This matter ends here.

"These people are really good at fooling people. Renren and Jinlong Software should have been on the list of star companies."

Su Mingzhe was somewhat unwilling, but his biological father Lin Yuanxing was somewhat timid and cowardly.

After being interviewed, Lin Yuanxing immediately did what he thought.

"Well, it's good enough to get the benefits, why do you need a bicycle?"

As a traditional businessman, Lin Yuanxing was naturally afraid of the government. This time, his son used his power to lose his respect for the government, which made him sweat.

What if the government is just trying to save face and doesn't give me a way out?

By then, the Lin family will really have to get out of Yanjing.

The Lin family started out in Yanjing, but was driven out of Yanjing.

By then, what does it matter if you are rich?

Living in a foreign land, people feel worthless when they are away from home.

Now that the government has given them face and provided them with a way out, the Lin family should just go along with it.

If we really get stuck there, I really don’t know whether the consequences will be good or bad.

Since his own father had said so, Su Mingzhe didn’t know what to say.

"Dad, since there's nothing else to do, I'll go back."

Su Mingzhe stood up, stretched and yawned. In the past two days, Yang Xue had been playing different games with him, making him feel listless during the day.

"Why are you going back? You are the vice president of the company now, get back to work!"

Lin Yuanxing hates seeing his son's failure the most. Although Su Mingzhe has changed a lot in the past year, he still gets angry when Su Mingzhe looks like a dandy and slacks off at work.

"Dad, speaking of work, I need to have a serious discussion with you."

Su Mingzhe said, and did not leave, sitting down again: "I'll ask Lao Zhang to set up a public relations company, and let the public relations company handle such trivial matters in the future. As the big boss, you just need to make decisions and grasp the direction. Don't you feel annoyed by nitpicking about these trivial matters all day long?"

"You know nothing. You leave everything to your subordinates. You don't even know that they have emptied the company."

Lin Yuanxing was about to teach his son a lesson, but unexpectedly Su Mingzhe waved his hand, smiled, and said something:
"Dad, what you said could indeed happen, but the chances are pitifully small. And if you worry about everything, I'm afraid you'll have a greater chance of overworking yourself and losing a few years of your life. The chances of that happening are very high."

When Lin Yuanxing heard this, he became furious again. He grabbed the documents on the table and threw them at his son's head:

"You bastard, you dare to curse your father! Even if I die, I will only die of your anger!"

"This dad has such a bad temper!"

Su Mingzhe ran away quickly and went to the Human Resources Department. They had agreed early this morning to hire a beautiful female secretary for him, but he didn't know when the female secretary would be in place.
