Chapter 21: Factory 3113

  (Collection sought! Recommendation sought! Thank you for everyone's support!)

  Dongfang Department Store is the largest and highest-end department store in Chengdu, people who go in and out of Dongfang Department Store with less than two dollars in their pocket really don't have the nerve to enter.

  Pang Zheng knew that Qin Mei and the others were going to Dongfang Department Store for shopping, so he quickly drove along the Riverside Avenue, taking Jiangnan Avenue towards the city center.

  After sending Qin Mei and Liu Fei to Dongfang Department Store, let Qin Mei and Liu Fei find a place to eat lunch by themselves, and also let Yang Jie give the pager to the two women, so that they can contact the two women when they return after finishing their business.

  When the two women got off the bus and only Pang Zheng and Yang Jie were left, Pang Zheng finally mentioned to Yang Jie the matter he needed his help with. "Yang, recently Fufeng Company wants to take over Zhutang City Jiangnan Aviation Power Machinery Co., Ltd.'s advertising and packaging printing business.

  Jiangnan Air Power Machinery Company, commonly known as Factory 3113, is affiliated with the Second Group of China Aviation Industry Corporation and is a national first-class enterprise. Currently, Factory 3113 is divided into two departments: the aviation department and the vehicle department. The aviation department mainly produces aircraft engines and related parts, while the vehicle department mainly produces Jiangnan motorcycles.

  Jiangnan Motorcycle is selling well nationwide, with an annual output of over 100,000 units and sales exceeding 500 million yuan. Currently, Jiangnan Motorcycle has established three branch factories to expand production and meet the current market demand that exceeds supply.

  Pang Zheng drove his Audi car quickly towards the national highway out of town, looking at the direction Pang Zheng was heading in, it was exactly Zhutang City. Yang Jie knew that if Pang Zheng asked for his help, it must be related to Jiangnan Aviation Power Machinery Company.

  Yang Jie and Pang Zheng had only met twice, and they didn't really know each other well. If it weren't for Qin Mei, Pang Zheng probably wouldn't have had any dealings with Yang Jie at all. As for Yang Jie's abilities in front of Pang Zheng, they were limited to his impressive drinking capacity. It was likely that the favor Pang Zheng asked of him was related to entertaining guests with drinks.

  Yang Jie, who had already made up his mind, naturally wouldn't worry about drinking and sat firmly in the passenger seat, listening to Pang Zheng's words with a calm expression.

  Fufeng Company wants to undertake Jiangnan Motorcycle's national flat and TV media advertising, as well as motorcycle and accessory packaging, promotional materials printing and other businesses.

  The boss of 3113 factory, Xue Yun, is a military background and loves drinking. He has an excellent capacity for liquor. The general manager of Jiangnan Motorcycle, Quan Tingming, is from the north and also has a good capacity for liquor. In my previous two visits to 3113 factory for business talks, I was drunk by them each time.

  "So today, I've specially invited you to join us for a drink, and try to finalize the contract for Jiangnan Motorcycle's next year's advertising and packaging on the table. The total amount of this contract is 50 million, so it's all up to you, Yang."

  Yang Jie smiled slightly after hearing Pang Zheng's words, it seemed that his guess was not wrong. Pang Zheng asked for his help, and it was indeed related to his tolerance for alcohol.

  It's estimated that the last time at Blue Dream, Yang Jie's capacity for liquor caught Pang Zheng's attention, which is why this time he especially invited Yang Jie to Zhutang City, to accompany him to Factory 3113, specifically to substitute for him in a drinking contest.

  "Brother Peng, I've got this covered. I guarantee I'll keep them company and drink with them until they're satisfied!" Yang Jie patted his chest solemnly, reassuring Pang Zheng with great certainty.

  Other things, Yang Jie didn't dare guarantee, but with Xiao Wu by his side, he wouldn't be afraid of drinking.

  Looking at Yang Jie with full confidence, Pang Zheng was very happy and a smile also appeared on his solemn face.

  The first two times, he also invited two friends who were quite good at drinking to go with him to Zhutang City to discuss the contract. Who would have thought that not only did they fail to get the leaders of Factory 3113 drunk, but they themselves got drunk instead, causing great embarrassment for Pang Zheng.

  Since seeing Yang Jie's drinking capacity last week, Pang Zheng had the idea of inviting Yang Jie to accompany him for a drink in Zhutang City. Coincidentally, he had an appointment with several leaders from Factory 3113 yesterday to discuss a contract, and Yang Jie happened to be free on Saturday, so he directly pulled Yang Jie's arm.

  Zhutang City is less than fifty kilometers away from Chengdu City, and the two big cities are adjacent to each other. As the city expands and develops, it won't take long for the two cities to be connected as one, forming a vast metropolitan area that is indistinguishable from one another.

  The Audi drove very fast, and the road connecting the two places was excellent. The distance of over 40 kilometers took less than half an hour to arrive.

  Pang Zheng often came to Zhutang City and was very familiar with the streets here. He drove through the city, heading in the direction of Factory 3113.

  The 3113 factory has more than 10,000 employees and is located in the southeastern suburbs of Zhutang City, about five kilometers from the city center. After decades of development, the 3113 factory has formed a small town. People who don't know it would think this is a small county town when they come here.

  More than 60,000 workers' families living near the factory area and local people nearby. Jiangnan Fuxiao is a provincial key primary school, many parents in Chengdu send their children to study here, the teaching quality of the school is very high." Pang Zheng drove into the 3113 factory area and began to introduce Yang Jie to this factory.

  Looking at the 3113 factory, which is like a city, with spacious streets, cars and motorcycles flowing continuously, bustling streets, crowded pedestrians, from the scale of the urban area and roads, this place doesn't look like a factory at all, but rather more like a city.

  Fuxin Tungsten Mine is also a state-owned enterprise, but compared to this place, it's like the difference between a town and a county seat, there's no comparison.

  The Audi drove directly to the front of the 10-story high, majestic and grand factory building. After stopping the car, Pang Zheng took Yang Jie into the administrative building of Factory 3113.

  The first and second floors of the building are exhibition halls, which display products produced by Factory 3113 over the years as well as award-winning products.

  Components, engines, missiles, motorcycles, and photos of leaders visiting the factory for inspection, as well as photos showing the development of the factory area over the years, are all on display in the exhibition hall. Pang Zheng led Yang Jie to introduce them one by one, walked into the elevator, and took Yang Jie directly to the ninth floor.

  The director of Factory 3113 is no longer called a factory director but is now referred to as the general manager in accordance with company terminology.

  Pang Zheng walked to the general manager's office door and knocked gently, as they had already made an appointment in advance. Earlier, when he was downstairs, the exhibition hall front desk also called to notify him, so as soon as Pang Zheng knocked on the door, it was opened.

  "Director Pang, you look even more spirited after not seeing you for a week! Director Xue and Old Gong are chatting inside, waiting for you, please come in!" Quan Tingming personally came forward to open the door, looked at Pang Zheng outside the door, smiled and shook hands with Pang Zheng, then directly ignored Yang Jie who was following behind Pang Zheng, and smiled as he invited Pang Zheng into his office.

  "This is my younger brother, Yang Jie, a top student from the Economics and Management Department of Yanda University. He currently works at the Provincial Office in Changyang City's Tonghe County." Pang Zheng took his time to introduce Yang Jie to Quan Tingming with great solemnity.

  Quan Tingming knew that Pang Zheng was the eldest son of Pang Bo, the head of the Organization Department and a standing committee member of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee. Seeing Yang Jie's majestic appearance, he thought he was also the son of a high-ranking official, so he hastily smiled and shook hands with him.

  After exchanging a few pleasantries at the door, the three of them finally entered Xue Yun's office.

  Yang Jie, who thought the office of Zhou Dequan in the provincial government was already extremely luxurious, only knew what true luxury was after seeing Xue Yun's office.

  In the nearly hundred square meters large office, the decoration is magnificent and resplendent. The spacious and transparent office has several large air conditioners standing in each corner to maintain a comfortable temperature. Even during the day, the ceiling lights are turned on, illuminating every detail of the office.

  Walking on the bright and spotless marble floor, looking at a middle-aged couple sitting in front of a luxurious leather sofa, chatting happily, Yang Jie quickly judged that the man in his 40s or 50s, with a strong and majestic physique, still exuding a military demeanor, was Xue Yun, the general manager of Jiangnan Aviation Power Machinery Company.

  Sitting beside Xue Yun, with white hair and a kind face, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, with wise light shining in his eyes, and a calm smile on his face, the old man in his sixties was probably Gong Lao that Quan Tingming mentioned.

  "Xiao Pang, have you brought in reinforcements again? I hope we won't have to trouble ourselves with arranging a driver to send you back this time!" Xue Yun looked at the incoming Pang Zheng and Yang Jie, especially after seeing how young Yang Jie was, her eyes sparkled with a hint of teasing as she playfully joked about Pang Zheng.

  "Director Xue, don't judge by appearance. Today I've invited an expert to come over. If we can't overwhelm you all, then I won't sign this contract!" Pang Zheng had great confidence in Yang Jie. Moreover, they had discussed the contract twice before and still hadn't finalized it. If today, with Yang Jie present, they still couldn't reach a deal, then he would have to think of another way.

  "Oh? So confident?" Xue Yun was taken aback by the words, he didn't expect that Pang Zheng, who looked quite mature and steady, would also have such an impulsive side. Looking at Yang Jie walking over with a calm and confident expression, Xue Yun felt a spark of interest towards this young man.

  "Not only confidence, but also determination." Pang Zheng smiled and replied to Xue Yun, then looked at Gong Lao and bowed respectfully, "Gong Lao, it's been half a year since we last met, right? The last time I saw you was at the Aerospace University."

  "Xiao Pang is still so polite, not introducing us to your friend?" Gong Lao was very satisfied with Pang Zheng's respectful attitude, and smiled and praised him before turning to Yang Jie on the side.

  "Director Xue, Old Gong, this is my younger brother Yang Jie, a top graduate from the Economics and Management Department of Yanda University. He currently works at the Provincial Office in Changyang City's Yuhe County." Pang Zheng continued to introduce Yang Jie: "Yang Jie, the person sitting at the head who looks very majestic is Xue Yun, Director Xue. Director Xue has a military background and not only leads troops well but also operates enterprises extremely well. Under Director Xue's leadership, the performance of Factory 3113 has increased year by year. In the aerospace industry, Director Xue is a renowned management expert."
