Chapter 497 525, Practical (Asking for Monthly Votes)
Kang Zhichao's sudden change of attentive attitude did not surprise Yang Hao.
After all, he has shown stronger financial resources, especially his leader Zheng Dongshan, who is polite to him and wants to discuss cooperation.
But Yang Hao really didn't like this kind of loser. He had already blacklisted the other party in his heart. However, after taking the tea poured by the other party, he still politely thanked him on the surface.
"Xiao Yang, if you want to go to our factory tomorrow, come and sit in my office."
"If you have anything you want to ask then, just ask me. There's nothing I don't know about the factory."
Kang Zhichao put the teapot aside and said with a smile.
"Well, time will definitely pass."
Yang Hao said casually, he didn't understand Kang Zhichao's little thoughts. Letting himself sit in his office was nothing more than "pushing the tiger's skin to pull the flag", let Zheng Dongshan and the factory leaders see it, you invite distinguished guests specially come to my office.
So, what attitude should you use towards me in the future?
"Xiao Yang, you don't know what Director Zheng wants to talk to you about, right?"
Kang Zhichao spoke again.
"Well, of course I don't know." Yang Hao shook his head.
"I guess they are talking about buying a stake in our Xiangyang Steel Plant. At present, our steel plant has been seeking transformation and responded to the country's call to complete the restructuring of large state-owned enterprises."
There was no need for Yang Hao to take the initiative to ask, Kang Zhichao just told everything he knew.
"So that's it!"
Yang Hao pretended to be enlightened, but did not continue the topic, but drank tea slowly.
Kang Zhichao, however, had no intention of leaving. He asked again: "Xiao Yang, are you interested in investing in our steel plant?"
"Not interested!"
Yang Hao shook his head: "You also know that I know nothing about the steel industry."
"This is normal, after all, we are across industries!"
Kang Zhichao couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he heard that Yang Hao said he was not interested in investing in the stock. He also thought that if Yang Hao could invest in Xiangyang Steel Plant, he could get a promotion through his family connections.
As a result, just when Kang Zhichao was a little disappointed, Yang Hao changed the subject and continued: "Although I don't know much about the steel industry, if it is a suitable business, it is not impossible to do it."
"There are quite a few people from Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant on site today. Are there anyone who is particularly knowledgeable about production, or are they middle- and senior-level leaders in the plant?"
While Yang Hao asked, he glanced at the two tables next to him. In fact, when everyone came over to toast just now, he had already memorized a few names, and they were all from Xiangyang Steel Plant.
For example, the middle-aged man with a crew cut sitting in the corner of the table on the left, his name is Zhang Fengshou, he is the deputy director in charge of production, and he is also the apprentice brought out by Kang Jingchun, but Zhang Fengshou does not seem to be good at socializing, and he just came to the main table to toast. In other words, he toasted Kang Jingchun and did not take the initiative to come over and talk to Yang Hao like others.
"There are many, and most of them are apprentices brought out by my father."
Kang Zhichao pointed at a few people, but did not mention Zhang Fengshou. Obviously, his relationship with Kang Zhichao and others should be very ordinary.
Moreover, Yang Hao also noticed that when Zheng Dongshan came just now, other people from Xiangyang Steel Plant stood up to greet him, but Zhang Fengshou seemed not to see him. He was still sitting in his seat and drinking to himself. liquor.
Just now, Yang Hao was a little interested in this "independent" man. This kind of person is either self-righteous or has real ability.
Of course, it is also possible that both attributes are present.
Zhang Fengshou probably falls into the category of both. Judging from his attitude towards others and others' attitude towards him, he is not gregarious, and his relationship with factory leaders and colleagues is very average.
But such a person can become the deputy director in charge of production, which shows that he definitely has extraordinary abilities.
Yang Hao used his Fierce Eyes skill to check Zhang Fengshou, and his father's evaluation of him turned out to be "Double S"!
The loyalty level and business ability level are all maxed out!
No wonder he can still secure the position of deputy factory director despite being so unsociable. He really has something special about him.
Yang Hao picked up the wine glass, stood up and left the table.
"Xiao Yang, where are you going?"
Kang Zhichao looked at Yang Hao suspiciously.
“Get to know people who know your factory.”
Yang Hao replied casually, and then walked to the table on the left.
As the focus of the birthday banquet, many people were paying attention to Yang Hao. When they saw him getting up and leaving the banquet, many people's eyes followed him to the table on the left.
I saw Yang Hao holding a wine glass and walking up to Zhang Fengshou: "Director Zhang, I want to toast you."
Zhang Fengshou was eating vegetables. He first felt someone blocking some of the light, and then heard someone wanting to toast him.
He raised his head in confusion and was a little surprised to see that the person who wanted to toast him was Yang Hao.
Although he didn't take the initiative to talk to Yang Hao, he had heard a bit about the other party's identity. After all, even Zheng Dongshan took the initiative to make friends with him, and he was the target of everyone's fawning.
However, Zhang Fengshou was naturally surprised that such a person came over to propose a toast to him.
But he was also someone who had seen big scenes. After a brief moment of confusion, he stood up and clinked the wine glass with Yang Hao.
Although Zhang Fengshou is aloof and aloof, he is not pedantic, and he will not hold back when others take the initiative to show kindness.
However, everyone present at the Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant was a little surprised when they saw that the person Yang Hao took the initiative to toast turned out to be Zhang Fengshou.
Especially Kang Zhichao, his eyes widened. When he introduced the employees of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant, he did not mention Zhang Fengshou, but Yang Hao found him.
Kang Zhichao was inevitably a little upset, because he and Zhang Fengshou did not have a good relationship.
It stands to reason that Zhang Fengshou is Kang Jingchun's apprentice, and he should have a good relationship with Kang Zhichao. At the beginning, it was true, but later as Zhang Fengshou's position became higher and higher, Kang Zhichao would always find him to use the back door, and Zhang Fengshou was the kind of upright character, not to form a clique, nor to engage in corruption, so naturally he could not play with Kang Zhichao.
"Is it convenient to chat for a few words?"
After drinking, Yang Hao pulled the empty seat next to Zhang Fengshou and sat down directly.
"What does Mr. Yang want to talk about?"
Zhang Fengshou looked at Yang Hao in confusion. In his opinion, there should be no topic between the two.
"Let's talk about Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant."
"I'm going to buy shares."
Yang Hao lowered his voice and replied.
The banquet hall was very noisy, so if the two people were talking in a low voice, outsiders really couldn't hear clearly.
After hearing what Yang Hao said, Zhang Fengshou's eyes widened immediately. He didn't expect that Yang Hao was talking about this matter.
It was no secret that Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant was undergoing transformation. The whole plant knew it from top to bottom, but the employees also knew that the chances of successful transformation were very low, because there was a high probability that no one would take over. The internal situation of the plant was too chaotic, and there were big holes. The investment cost-effectiveness was not high, and it might even lose money.
"Do you really want to invest in our plant?"
Zhang Fengshou looked at Yang Hao in disbelief.
"There is this plan, but it still needs to be investigated."
Yang Hao said with a smile: "That's why I found Director Zhang, hoping you can give me some advice."
"Aren't you afraid that I will fool you?"
"I don't think Director Zhang is that kind of person, not to mention that the money is in my own pocket, and whether to invest in the end depends on my own judgment."
After listening to Yang Hao's words, Zhang Fengshou subconsciously picked up the wine glass and shook it, but in fact there was no wine in the wine glass. This should be his habitual action when thinking.
"It's hard to say with so many people here."
"If Mr. Yang really wants to hear my opinion, then let's make an appointment after the birthday party."
After thinking for a while, Zhang Fengshou said.
"Okay, let's add WeChat."
Yang Hao immediately took out his mobile phone and added Zhang Fengshou as a WeChat friend, and then drank a glass of wine with the other party before returning to the main table.
Seeing that the two of them dispersed after a few words, Kang Zhichao breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little uncomfortable, because his relationship with Zhang Fengshou had broken up, and the other party came to the birthday party just for his father's face.
So of course he didn't want Yang Hao and Zhang Fengshou to get too close.
So, after Yang Hao returned to the main table, Kang Zhichao immediately came to Yang Hao and whispered: "Xiao Yang, if you want to know the situation in the factory, just ask me. Zhang Fengshou is floating in the clouds and is not down to earth at all. What he says may not be credible."
"Well, okay."
Yang Hao responded perfunctorily, but he had no intention of continuing to communicate with Kang Zhichao.
It can be predicted that he should not get much useful information from Kang Zhichao, because the other party must want to promote his investment and shareholding.
The birthday banquet is over.
For Kang Jingchun and the entire Kang family, this birthday banquet is full of appearances.
After all, big figures like Yang Hao and Zheng Dongshan came to celebrate the birthday, not to mention that in addition to the two, there are also well-known hosts, Internet celebrities with millions of fans, Li Manni, and Qin Feng, who is known as the "first rich second generation in Shanghai", and bosses like Sister Color and Xu Hongmei.
After the guests left, the Kang family went to Kang Zhifei's house in Xiangyang to continue the family gathering. Yang Hao did not follow them, but took Sister Yanse, Ye Wei and Qin Feng to the address Zhang Fengshou sent him.
It was a teahouse called "Heyue".
This teahouse is near the family quarters of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant. It is not large. Although it is called a teahouse, there are sounds of playing cards in several private rooms, and most of the people drinking tea and playing cards here are elderly people.
Yang Hao went up to the second floor according to the address sent by Zhang Fengshou, and met the deputy director again in the private room at the corner.
In addition, there was a slightly fat middle-aged woman in the private room at this time. She was the owner of this teahouse and Zhang Fengshou's wife, named Ding Lifang.
"Mr. Yang, please take a seat."
"I opened this teahouse. Just tell me what kind of tea you like."
Ding Lifang greeted enthusiastically. Her personality complemented Zhang Fengshou's. One was not good at interpersonal communication, and the other was a smooth-talking person. Otherwise, it would be impossible to run a teahouse independently.
"What does Sister Fang recommend?"
Ding Lifang was obviously older than Yang Hao, so he called her Sister Fang directly.
"We have the newly arrived Baihao Yinzhen, which is considered the best among white teas."
"I just don't know if Mr. Yang can get used to the taste of white tea." Ding Lifang introduced with a smile.
"If you can, let's go with this."
Yang Hao usually drinks all kinds of tea, but he doesn't have any taboos.
"Okay, wait a moment."
Ding Lifang responded, then walked out of the private room quickly, and soon returned with tea leaves and stood by the tea table skillfully to make tea.
In fact, this kind of small teahouse does not have tea making service, and the guests make their own tea, unlike those large teahouses equipped with beautiful tea artists, and even those tea artists can provide in-depth tea tasting services.
Ding Lifang was completely because Yang Hao and others were distinguished guests brought by her man.
"Mr. Yang, our Fengsheng family is a hard worker. He is very clumsy and very principled. It is precisely because of this that he is not very popular in the factory. I have told him many times, but he can't change."
Ding Lifang took the initiative to talk about her man's shortcomings while making tea, which was considered a vaccination.
"Go and do your work."
"There are still so many guests to greet."
Zhang Fengshou waved his hand unappreciatively, feeling that his wife's presence here would affect his work discussions.
"Mr. Yang, look at this temper!"
Ding Lifang immediately complained again, then poured a cup of tea for each of Yang Hao and Huang Qing, and then left the box.
"Mr. Yang, my wife just talks a lot, don't mind."
After Ding Lifang went out, Zhang Fengshou said.
"Sister Fang has a very good character."
“This tea is delicious too”
Yang Hao took a sip of tea and praised with a smile.
"Mr. Yang likes tea and will come here often."
Zhang Fengshou said politely, then changed the subject and went directly to the topic: "At the birthday banquet, Mr. Yang said that he wanted to invest in Xiangyang Steel Plant. Are you serious?"
"I can only say that I am very interested, and now I want to hear what Director Zhang has to say."
Yang Hao answered truthfully.
"The factory is a good factory. After all, the country put a lot of effort into building the Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant, but the people in the factory were so messed up that it became a mess."
Zhang Fengshou shook his head gently.
"Does Director Zhang have any good suggestions for investing in shares?" Yang Hao asked again.
“Now is not a good time to invest!”
Zhang Fengshou shook his head decisively, and then added: "If you enter the market now, you will most likely lose money."
Such an answer was expected by Yang Hao, because he probably knew the character of Deputy Director Zhang before he came, but Huang Qing, Qin Feng and Ye Wei were a little surprised.
None of them expected that Zhang Fengshou, the deputy director of the factory, would give such an answer.
"Mr. Yang believes in me. If you ask me, I will tell the truth."
Perhaps seeing the confusion in Huang Qing's eyes, Zhang Fengshou spoke again.
"I knew that Director Zhang was an honest man."
Yang Hao continued to ask: "Then according to Director Zhang's intention, Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant is really hopeless?"
"Not really."
Zhang Fengshou shook his head first, and then said solemnly: "But what Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant needs is a major operation, not a small local operation. It needs to be reformed in a drastic way, from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside."
When talking about how to save the Xiangyang Steel Plant, Zhang Fengshou, who didn't talk much, suddenly turned into a talkative person. He talked eloquently about everything from production to sales to operation and management, and he couldn't stop talking for more than 20 minutes. Come down.
