industrial overlord

Chapter 239
According to Lin Zhenhua's overall concept, after a few days of publicity and promotion in Paris, Chu Hongyang and his party will all move to the starting city of the bicycle race, and then set off at the same time as the players to complete the entire race.

The entire journey of a Tour de France is more than 3000 kilometers, and the average daily journey is less than 200 kilometers.The Hanhua team does not need to fight for speed with professional athletes, as long as it can ensure that the riders complete the stages every day and keep pace with the progress of the riders, it is enough.Lin Zhenhua estimated that such intensity is within everyone's tolerance.

Just in case, Lin Zhenhua also arranged for Lang Dong to hire a bus as a storage vehicle, specially following behind to accommodate those workers who were exhausted.After all, he is an amateur player, the most important thing is to blend.

Lin Zhenhua's idea is to let the Hanhua team become a tidbit in this year's Tour de France. He believes that sports reporters from all over the world will not let go of such a piece of news.Red China's cycling team participates in the Tour de France, what an impactful title it is.As long as the reporters dig deep, they will find a lot of information: Hanhua Heavy Industry, Feijian Bicycle, ideals, honors...

This kind of advertisement may not be able to produce immediate results, but if Hanhua Heavy Industry insists on sending a cycling team to compete in this way in the second or third year, it will slowly leave an impression in people's minds.It takes a long time to build a brand. Lin Zhenhua's move is actually laying the groundwork for Hanhua Heavy Industry's brand building.

What's the point of spending $10,000+ to build a brand?

The entire Tour de France will last for a month, so it is naturally impossible for Lin Zhenhua to stay in France forever.He asked Schumann to stay and help Lang Dong coordinate matters related to media liaison and logistics. He only stayed for one day before he hurriedly set off on his way home.

On the way back to China, Lin Zhenhua made another detour to Thailand.There, four sets of large chemical fertilizer equipment delivered by Hanhua Heavy Industries are being installed and debugged. The person in charge of the site is Feng Xu, former director of the container workshop of Hanhua Machinery Factory.

"Manager Lin, you are here. Did you have a hard time going to Germany this time?" Feng Xu greeted Lin Zhenhua enthusiastically when he saw Lin Zhenhua.

"I didn't work hard, Director Feng, you all worked hard." Lin Zhenhua said.

"We don't work hard." Feng Xu said flatteringly, "The treatment that Manager Lin arranged for us is really good. The workers all said that traveling on business is more comfortable than staying at home."

Lin Zhenhua knew that Feng Xu had always liked bragging, so he didn't mind.There are some people in this world who are used to saying good things, just like Zhu Tiejun is used to scolding others.Feng Xu's words are nice, and the work under his hands is also beautiful. He is not the kind of mediocrity who only flatters the leaders.

"How's the progress?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

"It's 70% complete." Feng Xu said, "We're rushing to work these days, and it's the rainy season in Thailand, which has a big impact on the construction period."

"Pay attention to safety during construction in the rainy season, especially be careful of lightning." Lin Zhenhua urged.

Feng Xu nodded again and again: "Manager Lin, don't worry, Master Sun Changyuan and the others are here, they are very experienced."

"That's good." Lin Zhenhua said.

After chatting with Feng Xu, Lin Zhenhua went to the construction site to visit the workers.He brought some foreign cigarettes and chocolates from Europe, and just distributed them to the workers on the construction site.Although each person could only get a few cigarettes and one or two pieces of chocolate, everyone praised him, saying that Manager Lin was approachable and cared about the workers.

This is the effect of being a leader. When Lin Zhenhua was a porter in the past, he also gave out cigarettes to the workers around him, but everyone smoked and smoked. I didn't expect it to be of great significance.Once you become a leader, it is completely different. A cigarette also carries the body temperature of a leader, and it is extra warm when you smoke it.After smoking, my waist is no longer sore, my legs are no longer painful, and I don't need to stop halfway to climb to the top of the synthesis tower.

Lin Zhenhua's prospective father-in-law, Yang Chunshan, was also on the construction site. Lin Zhenhua brought him a belt worth several hundred dollars from France, which made Yang Chunshan both happy and distressed.Yang Chunshan told Lin Zhenhua privately that the workers on the construction site were very satisfied with their living conditions and travel subsidies. This information was exactly the same as what Feng Xu said, and Lin Zhenhua was completely at ease.

After leaving the construction site, Lin Zhenhua returned to Bangkok and visited Jirapong again.In the past year, Jirapong visited China several times with a delegation from Thailand and trained workers, met Lin Zhenhua many times, and became friends who talked about everything.Of course, Lin Zhenhua also knew that the most important link to maintain their relationship was the US dollars he had saved in several banks for Jirapong.

"Manager Lin, I've heard my colleagues talk about what you did at the Frankfurt Equipment Show, and it's really exciting." Jirapong said when he saw Lin Zhenhua.

Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, "Old friend, I still expected to see you at the exhibition, why didn't you go?"

"My colleague went there." Jirapong said, "I'm busy with work now, so I can't help it. The higher the position, the more responsibilities." When he said the last sentence, his tone was showing off meaning.

"Why, your deputy director has been appointed?" Lin Zhenhua asked pretending to be surprised.

"I was just appointed last month." Jirapong said proudly, "Manager Lin, it's all thanks to your contribution. I saved 600 million US dollars for the country by purchasing large-scale fertilizer equipment. The ministers say I'm very capable."

Lin Zhenhua took out a briefcase, handed it to Girapon's desk, and said, "I took a detour to France this time, and saw a briefcase in the mall that was not bad in style, and it matched Director Girapon's figure very well, so I bought it. Now it is just a congratulatory gift, please accept it with a smile from Director Jirapong."

Jirapong laughed, and while pretending to evade, he took the bag, looked inside and out, and said with praise: "Oh, this is Louis Vuitton, look at the workmanship, this bag , I’m afraid it will cost thousands of dollars, it’s too expensive, I really can’t accept it.”

Lin Zhenhua said with a smile: "It's only more than 6000 US dollars. Compared with the status of Director Jirapong, it is really too shabby."

"Where is it, Manager Lin is really too polite." Jirapong accepted it without any politeness.

Alas, reluctant to leave the child without a wolf, Lin Zhenhua smiled on his face, but felt a great pain in his heart.The only thing he gave to his prospective father-in-law was a $300 belt, and he made his father-in-law scold him.For this inexplicable Jirapong, it cost 6000 US dollars. The difference between people is really too big.

"By the way, your workers came to install these four sets of large fertilizer equipment this time, and the people in our industrial department are very satisfied." Jirapong said, "Everyone has reported that Chinese workers can endure hardships, and there is nothing special about their living conditions. Requirements, but also great respect for our own workers and technicians, which is rare in our past experience in introducing technology in Thailand."

"I would also like to thank the Thai side for the living services provided by our workers. They are very satisfied with the living conditions." Lin Zhenhua also said.

He had already learned at the construction site that the living services provided by the Thai side were indeed good, and the food and drink of the workers were higher than those in China, so everyone was naturally very satisfied.According to Yang Chunshan, Thailand originally planned to arrange some "special" service items for the workers, but several veteran workers were flatly rejected.

The two chatted for another day, and Jirapong told Lin Zhenhua that the Congress was very satisfied with the cooperation with Hanhua Heavy Industries this time.In the near future, Thailand will launch several new projects. At that time, he will notify Lin Zhenhua to bid as soon as possible.Although it is necessary to go through the process of bidding and bidding in the procedure, with Jirapong as the internal support, it is not a big problem for Lin Zhenhua to get these projects.As for the things under the table, everyone is tacit, so naturally there is no need to say more.

When Lin Zhenhua was about to say goodbye, Jirapong opened the drawer, took out a brocade box, handed it to Lin Zhenhua and said, "Manager Lin, I'm really sorry for accepting your gifts every time. I have a jadeite bracelet here. Very good, give it to your wife."

Lin Zhenhua was not polite, he took the brocade box, opened it, and inside was a green jade bracelet.Lin Zhenhua doesn't have much research on luxury goods, but it can be seen that the price of this bracelet should be expensive.It seems that Jirapong really invested some money and wanted to maintain a closer relationship with him.

"Thank you Director Jirapong for the gift, I will thank the Director for my wife." Lin Zhenhua said with a smile.

"This is Burmese jade, very good." Jirapong said, "By the way, you don't know yet, right? A new autonomous state has been established in the northeast of Burma. I heard that a group of people from China ran over there. It was established, and the name is Yan’an State, which means Yan’an in your China. Now [-]% of Burmese jadeite is produced in the Thai market, and they are all produced there. Think about it, how much money they can earn. "

Jirapong's words were unintentional, but Lin Zhenhua's heart moved. He thought of his brother who fled to Burma.

After leaving the commercial department, Lin Zhenhua came to the Swiss Bank on Bangkok Street, reported an account number, and asked the salesperson to check the balance for him.

"Sir, the balance on your account is $20." The salesman replied politely after checking.

"What? 20?" Lin Zhenhua was startled, "You didn't make a mistake, did you? When I checked last year, it was only 5."

"Sir, it is impossible for us to make a mistake." The salesman said, "There are two deposits this year, one is in February, 2 yuan; the other is last month, 5 US dollars."

It seems that Fengzi really got rich, Lin Zhenhua thought secretly in his heart.
