Chapter 711 Entrepreneurship
Some people say that no one knows you better than your enemy.This is Lin Zhenhua's judgment on Khedira.Although he didn't know that Khedira was in Korbach City, he could still guess from the sinister taste in this incident that Khedira must be the mastermind behind this scene.

"Our rise has made many people unhappy, and Khedira is one of them." Lin Zhenhua introduced the grievances between Khedira and Hanhua to Qi Zhongmou and Cao Shulin, and then said with emotion.

"This kind of thing can only be regarded as harming others and benefiting oneself, right?" Qi Zhongmou said in surprise, "I thought, although I, Lao Qi, is not a gentleman, I would definitely not do such a thing that harms others and benefits oneself. "

Lin Zhenhua laughed and said: "Mr. Qi, in this point, you are not as good as Khedira. No matter what he says, he can be regarded as a person with ideals and principles. The enmity between him and the Chinese has continued. After so many years, he still perseveres, and when the factory is acquired by us, he will disgust us once, tell me, who can have such perseverance?"

Cao Shulin scratched his scalp and said, "Zhenhua, why do I feel like you are praising this bastard?"

"I really can't think of how to scold him to relieve my hatred." Lin Zhenhua said angrily.This guy Khedira has caused a lot of trouble for Hanhua over the years, from instigating Somali pirates to intercept Hanhua's cargo ship, to plotting European companies to collectively block Chinese companies.Although every attack he made was crushed in the end, it did bring a lot of extra burdens to Hanhua.It is an honor for an enterprise to have such a loyal enemy.

It seemed that Lawrence could not get a solution. In desperation, Lin Zhenhua and his party had no choice but to call a taxi and go back to the Korbach factory first to visit the workers who were in charge of dismantling the equipment there.

In the workshop of the Korbach factory, fitters from Hanhua Machine Tool Co., Ltd. and porters from Lamor Logistics Co., Ltd. are working in full swing.They disassembled the equipment that was going to be shipped back to China one by one, stacked them in an open space on one side, and pasted foam plastic or cotton cloth on some key parts for protection.

In order to reduce vibration during operation, many precision machine tools are fixed on the foundation with expansion screws. Workers must carefully remove those expansion screws, and then disassemble the machine tool into several parts for easy transportation.Some screws have been completely rusted for a long time, and the workers will use a small hacksaw to saw off the screws. Such work is very time-consuming and laborious.

Seeing Cao Shulin walk into the workshop, Yang Wenyong, who was in charge of the on-site command work, greeted him with a wrench and asked, "Mr. Cao, how are you? Is the flatbed truck here?"

"No." Cao Shulin shook his head apologetically.

"What's going on?" Yang Wenyong said in a complaining tone, "It's been a long time, and no car has come. What happened?"

Cao Shulin pointed to Lin Zhenhua who was following behind him, and said, "Boss Lin is here too, let him tell everyone."

"Oh, Mr. Lin is here?" Yang Wenyong discovered Lin Zhenhua at this moment, and hurriedly greeted him: "Mr. Lin, you are here. Did you have a hard time on the road?"

"Wen Yong, you have worked hard." Lin Zhenhua stretched out his hand to shake Yang Wenyong's hand. Yang Wenyong hurriedly dodged, waving his hand and said, "President Lin, you don't have to shake hands. My hands are full of engine oil."

Lin Zhenhua did not hypocritically insist on shaking Yang Wenyong's dirty hands. This kind of show of being close to the people is completely unnecessary between them.He looked at the scene in the workshop and asked Yang Wenyong, "Wen Yong, how is the dismantling of the equipment going?"

"Everything is going well." Yang Wenyong said, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his tone, "Mr. Lin, we can be regarded as picking up treasures. There are really a lot of good equipment in their factory, and many of them are not available in our company. The equipment. I also told the masters, how could they go bankrupt with such good equipment?"

Lin Zhenhua was amused by Yang Wenyong's innocence. He said: "It is not one or two new weapons that determine the outcome of a war. They have the best equipment, but their workers are not as hardworking as ours. It is reasonable to lose to us." something in it."

"That's true." Yang Wenyong was rather proud. Looking at the dismantled equipment in a corner of the workshop, he remembered the truck again, and asked again: "Mr. Lin, what did Mr. Cao say about the truck?" You know the thing, what's going on? We've already removed so much equipment, we're just waiting for the car to come and pull it away."

"The Germans were not reconciled to the factory being demolished by us, so they played a trick and stopped our car at the Meissen Bridge." Lin Zhenhua said.

"What do you mean?" When the surrounding workers heard this, they stopped what they were doing and came together.

Lin Zhenhua briefly told everyone that Lawrence declared the Meissen Bridge a dangerous bridge and prevented Chinese vehicles from passing through, and at the same time he also expressed his guess about this matter.The workers immediately exploded, discussing in one go:
"These bastards, if you have the ability to show it clearly, what kind of dirty tricks are you playing!"

"Don't care about them, let's force our way in and tell them that if the bridge collapses, we will bear all the responsibilities."

"It's not good to force yourself, or you can go around from the neighboring city. I heard there is a bridge over there."

"Then it will take dozens of kilometers to go around. Besides, what if they collude to say that the bridge is also a dangerous bridge?"

"This is really disgusting. Without a car, how can this equipment be transported out?"

"..."

When Lin Zhenhua heard everyone's voices getting louder, he quickly raised his hand and made a gesture to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Masters, please don't worry about this matter. Mr. Cao, Mr. Qi, and I have already I have been to the city hall and made a solemn statement to the mayor. If he refuses to withdraw his order, we have no choice but to intervene through diplomatic channels and the German government. What everyone should do is still as usual. I estimate that it will take two or three days. Things can be resolved.”

"Boss Lin, no way." Yang Wenyong said in a low voice, "The equipment we dismantled has been piled up in the open space of the workshop, and there is not much room left now. If the things dismantled in front cannot be transported away in time, we will send It's hard to keep working."

"Get over it first." Lin Zhenhua patted Yang Wenyong on the shoulder and said, "I will discuss it with Mr. Cao and try to solve this problem as soon as possible."

After persuading Yang Wenyong to leave, Lin Zhenhua, Cao Shulin, and Qi Zhongmou walked out of the workshop and stood in a deserted place.Qi Zhongmou said: "Xiao Lin, I think this matter is a bit troublesome. You said that the problem can be solved in two or three days. I think it may be too optimistic. German society is not like ours in China. The central government has very limited control over local governments. If this Lawrence is determined to embarrass us, it might take ten days and a half months."

"I know." Lin Zhenhua also said with a frown. He turned to look at Cao Shulin and asked, "Old Cao, if Lawrence really refuses to let him go, do you think we have other options?"

Cao Shulin said: "The only way is to bypass the neighboring city, but I don't know if the neighboring city will find some excuse to not allow us to pass. We use large flatbed trucks to pull equipment, and flatbed trucks are not allowed in some towns Acceptable."

"What if we change to another car?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

"They have a reason to stop any truck," Cao Shulin said.

Lin Zhenhua waved his hand and said, "I mean, instead of a truck, use...for example, a cart."

"Drawer?" Cao Shulin was taken aback. He thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said, "Drawer is definitely not good. After dismantling these devices, each piece weighs one or two tons and weighs about [-] ton." Three or four tons, how can there be such a heavy cart... unless it is..."

Having said that, his eyes began to flicker, as if he had thought of something, but he still looked a little embarrassed.

"Unless what?" Lin Zhenhua asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"

Cao Shulin smiled wryly, and said, "Is there any good way I can think of, there is only one stupid way, I thought about it, it's too impracticable, and it's useless to say it."

Lin Zhenhua asked: "What stupid way? Say it, let's work together as a staff."

Cao Shulin said: "It's very simple. It is to use human power to carry the equipment out, carry it across the Meissen Bridge, and the flatbed truck will pick up the goods at the other end of the bridge."

"Carry it!" Qi Zhongmou's eyes widened, "Mr. Cao, are you okay? Do you let someone carry the equipment weighing several tons?"

Cao Shulin said disdainfully: "This is not strange. I used to do such things when I was a porter in the factory. At that time, the factory called on us to learn the spirit of Da-qing Iron Man. Do you remember that the Iron Man and the others Did the derrick-carrying thing."

Hearing what Cao Shulin said, Lin Zhenhua and Qi Zhongmou also remembered that this is a plot in the movie "Entrepreneurship". During the National Petroleum Conference, drilling teams from all over the country came to Daqing with their equipment.At that time, cranes and flatbed trucks were in short supply, so Tieren led his fellow workers to use human shoulders to transport the equipment to the construction site to ensure timely start of work.

After the film was broadcast, people all over the world learned about entrepreneurship and engaged in many formalistic activities. Cao Shulin probably said the same thing.It is still feasible to use the method of people pulling the shoulders to carry the equipment, but it is not necessary to do so because cranes and trucks can be found in ordinary enterprises.

Unexpectedly, the Germans posed a difficult problem, which made them really want to use this most primitive method.

"Old Cao, do you think this method will work?" Lin Zhenhua asked with a thought.

Before Cao Shulin could answer, Qi Zhongmou gave a negative opinion: "Zhenhua, what are you thinking? A piece of equipment weighs several tons, and at least dozens of people can carry it. How many people do you have here now? What era is it now, what kind of entrepreneurial spirit do you really plan to engage in?"

"Entrepreneurial spirit is right." Lin Zhenhua replied half-jokingly and half-seriously, "We have worked hard step by step like this. In the past, Lao Cao and the others were able to carry it. I believe that our current workers can also carry it."

Qi Zhongmou shook his head: "I don't doubt that you can afford it, but it's too unnecessary. We can go to the German government to deal with this matter. At most, it will only delay a few days. You are not in a hurry to use these Equipment?"

Lin Zhenhua said: "Old Qi, you don't understand what I mean. If we can really carry these devices out with our shoulders, then we can give these Germans a loud slap in the face. I want them to see that we can Winning in the competition does not depend on intrigue, but on this desperate spirit, and I want them to be convinced to lose!"

"Okay!" Cao Shulin clapped his hands and applauded, "Zhenhua, I just like your spirit. I'll call our porters, drivers, etc. over now, just look at your old brother, a young fool. How did you move the mountain?"

"Our workers are also counted." Lin Zhenhua said bluntly, "And I'm also counted."

"Forget it." Cao Shulin said hastily, "You are a big boss, if you get tired out, I'm afraid the central government will come to settle accounts with me."

Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, "Old Cao, don't underestimate me. I was also a porter back then."

"You just pull it down." Cao Shulin said, "Actually, it's not just a matter of missing you. Let me figure it out. The porters of our labor model logistics company, plus the fitters you sent to disassemble the equipment, are fully calculated. That’s 120 people. If a piece of equipment weighs 3 tons, it’s 6000 kilograms, and 50 to 60 people are needed to carry it. In this way, we can only transport 2 pieces of equipment in one trip, which is too inefficient.”

"Let's hire some more people." Qi Zhongmou stood aside and supported the move. Although he did not agree with Lin Zhenhua and Cao Shulin's plan, since the other party had made up their minds, he enthusiastically helped to find a way.

"Who are you hiring?" Lin Zhenhua said, "Old Qi, this is in Germany. Where are you going to hire people? You don't think these German men are willing to carry equipment with us, do you? Besides, even if they are willing, I won't." By hiring them, I want them to see the strength of the Chinese people."

Qi Zhongmou curled his lips and said, "Who asked you to hire Germans? There is a Chinese department store in Korbach. If you are willing to pay, go to the department store and hire some Chinese porters, shop assistants, etc. Isn’t it an easy task? Kiss me or not, people from my hometown, I believe that if you say this is a Chinese business, they will definitely be willing to help.”

"It's a good idea, Lao Qi, you really have it." Lin Zhenhua laughed, and he turned to Cao Shulin and said, "Old Cao, you should make arrangements here first, and get ready some ropes, wooden poles, etc. , I went to China Department Store to find help.”

"I'll go with you." Qi Zhongmou sighed, "You are really a bunch of lunatics, but I have agreed in advance that I am an old man in his 60s, and I will not carry things with you."
