 Yu Zitong said here, seemed to remember something, smiled and said, "What's even more interesting is that I heard that the vice president of Wang's enterprise has been in love with your mature and beautiful General Manager Guan for many years, and for her to this day, she is still a single noble, your General Manager Guan is really quite a charmer."

 Lin Yang laughed, ''Is this General Manager Guan really that outstanding? I haven't met her, but from the way you said it, I really don't dare to meet her. You also know that I have poor stamina, if I can't hold on to her when the time comes, won't I lose a big scandal."

 Yu Zitong giggled and said, "If you have poor determination, then I have no determination." After the words remembered that in the elevator he was "tempted" by the scene, the heart is again a burst of shyness, two pieces of redness flew on the cheeks.

 Lin Yang remembered that the Holy Dragon Group and the Ankai Group both had martial arts backgrounds behind them, was this Evening Star Industries and Wang's Enterprises involved in them as well? The four big groups have been in power for many years, they must all have deep backgrounds and connections, and they must have deep knowledge of the backgrounds of the other three, even if Evening Star Industries and Wang's Enterprises don't have martial arts sects behind them, they must also have background strengths that are not comparable to them.

 When he thought of this, Lin Yang suddenly thought of Chen Jia Luo, and of the supernaturals. Jianghu sects were able to gain a foothold in society and flourish, while the more mysterious supernaturals, where were they and what were they doing? If they also slowly infiltrate the society, with their ability they will surely grasp more resources and power, what kind of scene would that be?

 The more Lin Yang thought about it, the more worried he became, this had gone beyond his imagination, the words of Elder Wang that day, as well as what he had learned from Yu Zitong today about these four major groups, all of them gave him a sense of worry. Were the aberrants just like these martial arts sects, wielding great power, and what would they do. Lin Yang was dumbfounded after thinking for a while, how did he become a police officer on the Pacific Ocean, how is it his turn to be in charge of these things, he was really worrying about nothing.

 Yu Zitong saw that Lin Yang didn't say a word and thought that he was still immersed in marveling at the greatness of the Four Groups, so she said, "What do you think about the Four Groups' current achievements?"

 Lin Yang nodded and said, "Not bad, their achievements are indeed impressive. But we shouldn't just blindly envy their glorious achievements, we should also take the time to study the strategic vision of those entrepreneurs back then. We can now imagine how much courage and boldness they needed to make such a decision. Put yourself in their shoes and think about whether we would have had the determination and courage to make such a decision if we were in the background at that time."

 Yu Zitong's beautiful eyes gazed at him as she gently laughed, "A simple background introduction can make you think of so many things, it's hard for me to imagine that you're only 19 years old. It's hard to imagine what kind of achievements you would have if you really reached the day you turned thirty."

 Lin Yang shook his head and laughed, "I'm talking on paper, I don't have any practical experience, and I'm even less able to stand up to scrutiny, so it looks beautiful, but in reality it's worthless, and to put it bluntly, it's called standing around talking without a pain in the ass."

 Yu Zitong shook her head and said, "Talking on paper also requires vision, I believe that with your qualifications, after two years of honing in the mall, you will also be an invincible eagle."

 Lin Yang laughed, "Don't flatter me, if there really is that day, I'll be sure to thank you properly for this sage advice tonight."

 Yu Zitong gently stroked the hair at the corner of her forehead, looked at him and smiled charmingly, "As long as you don't mind my nagging, I'm satisfied." The ten thousand flavors in the flow of lustful light made the Lu man-like Lin Yang's heart flutter, and he was busy digressing, "Good, now talk about how you provoked the An family's son."

 Yu Zitong sighed and said, "It all starts with my "Genesis of Power"."

 Lin Yang said, "Is this the name of your company? I like this name."

 Yu Zitong nodded and said, "Yes, this company was founded by my father, at first it was just a small trading company with a registered capital of less than a million dollars. Four years ago, my father died, I inherited his will to take over the company, and renamed it "Chuangli Century", my father's name is Yu Chuangli, this name is in his honor."

 Lin Yang said, "I can tell from the name that you are determined to make your business bigger and stronger, I admire that. So what kind of business does your company mainly engage in?"

 Yu Zitong said: "My father was an engineer in one of the largest automobile manufacturers in China some years ago, and has been engaged in automobile design for more than twenty years. Of course, you know the situation in China now, almost all large domestic automobile enterprises have given up independent research and development, and embarked on joint ventures, wanting to exchange technology for market and management. People like my father who are bent on building their own cars are of course subjected to blank stares everywhere, and my father, in a fit of pique, resigned with a few of his colleagues to create this enterprise."

 Lin Yang nodded and said, "Joint ventures, exchanging technology for market for management, of course, this kind of will is good, but foreigners are not fools, the real core process and technology, they will never teach us."

 Yu Zitong continued: "So you can see, although more and more domestic joint-venture automobile production enterprises, but simply the introduction of a few so-called world's advanced level of production lines, and our own technical personnel on the core technologies and processes but simply can not be contacted. The so-called joint venture company is actually a lot of a front, in which our own management personnel simply do not have the right to speak, really in charge of everything is those who take a high salary but seldom do the work of the foreign management and technical personnel, although let a person suffocate, but away from them, we simply can not play."

 After a pause, and then said: "Our own original some of the good assets and famous brands are also in the process of joint ventures by foreigners step by step swallowed up, and has so many joint venture automobile manufacturers, our countrymen to buy a car, but the price is still much more expensive than foreign countries, or even to twice as much as the domestic models are also mostly foreign ten or even twenty years ago has been eliminated products. They enjoy the most favorable tax policies, use our cheapest labor, manufacture expensive but not in line with the price, or even cut corners, and then sell them to us to seize huge profits."

 Yu Zitong sighed and then said, "The huge domestic automobile consumer market is monopolized by foreign brands, and if this goes on, the dream of our countrymen to have their own domestic cars will never be realized."

 Lin Yang remembered the car he drove in the army, also basically never seen a domestic brand, his heart was also very emotional, sighed and said, "With our national inertia and blind pandering to the foreign mentality, you can imagine, like your father such a local car designer, in the powerful wave of joint ventures, how lonely and helpless, your father and his colleagues in the original enterprise everywhere, that is also the inevitable phenomenon."

 Yu Zitong said helplessly, "Leaders blindly worship the short-term economic benefits brought by joint ventures, ignoring the long-term brand and development effects, paying no attention to the design and manufacturing power they own, letting them fend for themselves, and some of them even want to dissolve the Automobile Research Institute. The danger of this short-sighted and blind development is obvious. Now in China, you simply can't see a car designed and manufactured by ourselves."

 There's another chapter coming up, so click more, lol, trying to make the weekly point list!

 Lin Yang has a lot of feelings about this, interface: "Manufacturing, especially heavy manufacturing, is a country's industrial base, automobile manufacturing and aircraft manufacturing is a country's highest level of industrial representation. But look at us, engaged in so many years of automobiles and airplanes, but even a car wheels an airplane wings are not made. As a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, this is not only a kind of shame, but also lurks a huge crisis. Think about it, if there is no such highly sophisticated and large-scale manufacturing industry, how can we compete with others in today's technology-first world."

 Lin Yang is also a little excited, slowly walked to the window and stared at the flickering lights outside the window, said in a deep voice: "The next millennium will belong to science and technology and energy, we are in one of the most should be prioritized in the field of development of the early lagging behind others, even more frightening is that we are still immersed in the beauty of the dream has not yet wakened up, this is what a terrible thing ah."

 Yu Zitong smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to have this kind of realization, I can't believe that you're still a student who hasn't stepped into the society, I sometimes feel that your experience is extremely disproportionate to your age, do you still have a lot of unspeakable things?"

 Lin Yang didn't deny it either and laughed, "Since you know it's not to be disclosed, you still want to ask, isn't this forcing me to kill and silence you?"

 Yu Zitong's nose lightly wrinkled and gently "hummed", the corners of her pretty mouth slightly curved up, glancing at him angrily. Lin Yang on her flavorful although is comprehended thoroughly to the bone, but still can not eat her charm, busy will be his eyes away.

 Yu Zitong's small hand brushed up her lips and giggled, it was quite pleasant to watch Lin Yang, a half-assed boy pretending to be mature, suffer embarrassment.

 Lin Yang felt her seemingly angry and smiling gaze on him and was deeply overwhelmed, so he busied himself, "It's better to go on and introduce your company."

 Yu Zitong remembered the main thing, is also a dark gaze, they are here and he talked to him seems to be the scenery, but who knows their father and daughter two hard work for many years of the company is about to close down, so many people for many years of hard work are going to waste, is really let a person heartache incomparable.

 But what can they do, do they really want to sacrifice their own happiness to pursue the development of the company. If you can even sell yourself, then you have lost your personality, a person without a personality can still have what ambitions and ideals aspirations? Even if you sacrifice yourself, will the company be able to develop smoothly? An Zifeng kind of person, and how can the new appointment?

 On the contrary, it was this young man called Lin Yang in front of him, young yet mysterious and unpredictable, seemingly simple but actually a bit complicated, this kind of sunshine with some evil vicissitudes of temperament is really attractive, at the very least, it can attract people to themselves.

 Yu Zitong herself didn't even know what she was thinking anymore, and Lin Yang noticed that she was a bit lost in thought, and smiled in an inopportune heated manner, "Are you alright?"

 Yu Zitong was interrupted in her fantasy by him, seeing his gangly smile, she thought he saw something, her pretty face flushed and she busied herself with saying, "Nothing, nothing, where were we talking about."

 Lin Yang laughed, "There are still very few people who can be so lost in thought when talking to me... You're so lucky to have caught me at my least charismatic moment, otherwise, where would there be a chance for you to think?"

 Yu Zitong hummed and revealed a mischievous smile, "You just stink, you!" Lin Yang laughed, "Get to the point, get to the point."

 Yu Zitong gave him a blank look, you kid also know that you have something serious to say ah, seeing Lin Yang hei giggling, there was a warm and affectionate feeling in his heart. With him, every thing seems to be natural, so natural that you can't even feel happy anymore, as if this is normal. This kid is really evil, Yu Zitong thought in her heart as she stared at Lin Yang.

 "My father and a few of his coworkers resigned in a fit of anger and left their original unit to create this company." Yu Zitong finally collected her complicated feelings and continued to introduce her company's history.

 "The company was founded in the early days, the scale is small, the shortage of funds, a few of them will use their own in the industry to accumulate some resources, mainly to carry out some of the automobile peripheral trade, such as automobile repair and modification, spare parts agent sales, oh, to put it bluntly, is the channel merchant, but some of the small parts they also processed by themselves, but they are all handmade workshop type of small fights. "

 "A few of them are experienced and good at craftsmanship, and slowly made some name for themselves, and the company gradually developed. When they had enough money, they set up their own spare parts manufacturing plant, although not large, but they realized the transformation from a small workshop to formalized production. Of course, my father has always had a dream in his heart, that is, to build our own car, but he himself knows that with the strength of a few people, not to mention building a car, even building a tire is difficult."

 Lin Yang nodded his head and said, "This is natural, without capital to start, building a car is almost impossible."

 Yu Zitong sighed and said, "They also know this, the few uncles and uncles who started the business together at the beginning gradually left the company because of disillusionment plus some other reasons, and the remaining few are also a bit discouraged. In this situation, my father decided to settle for the second best, to work on automobile modification, to accumulate experience, step by step, one day we will build our own car."

 Lin Yang said with emotion, "Your father is truly an honorable man, if we as a nation had a few more of these people who are sincere and do practical things, what else can we not do?"

 Yu Zitong nodded her head and said, "Our nation is hardworking and intelligent, but lacks determination and perseverance, and is prone to craving for enjoyment, which is a point that my father lamented the most during his lifetime."

 Lin Yang smiled and said, "It seems like we're getting a bit too far off topic discussing this, why don't you tell us how your father worked on the car remodeling and how he got involved with that An guy."

 Yu Zitong said, "Although our company focuses on the trade of automobile spare parts, my father and his team have actually been doing some research in other areas over the years. Their research focuses on two areas. One is the automobile exhaust cleaning device, and the other is the automobile engine improvement device they just completed last year."

 Lin Yang asked: "I can understand the automobile exhaust cleaning device, the future of the automobile should pursue small displacement and low fuel consumption, at the same time there will be a new exhaust emission standards. As far as I know, the European automobile exhaust emission standards are much stricter than the domestic ones, and it is very likely that the domestic ones will adopt their new standards in the future, so exhaust cleaning is the future trend of environmental protection. In the future, after the new exhaust emission standards, old cars must be retrofitted with exhaust cleaning devices. At this point, your father and the others are indeed very strategic."

 Yu Zitong heard him praising her father, her heart was happy, charmingly glanced at him and said, "You also have a very strategic vision."

 Lin Yang laughed, "I'm the one who planted the tree in front of me, and the one who comes after me, so I can only take advantage of my mouth, and if I'm really allowed to do it, I'll be satisfied if I can have a tenth of what your father has."

 Yu Zitong laughed, "Don't be modest, I can guarantee that as long as you work hard, crisscrossing the mall is something that can be done in a matter of days."

 Lin Yang shook his head and laughed, "I'm still a penniless poor boy, what to talk about criss-crossing the mall, that's still a laughing matter, so don't undermine me."

 Yu Zitong said with a straight face, "You can't look at a person by how much money he has, but by his mind and vision. I have a premonition that your future achievements will definitely exceed everyone's imagination."

 Lin Yang laughed, "Then I'll take Ms. Yu's good advice, that's something I quite love to hear. What about the other automobile engine improvement device?"

Chapter 55 Directions (3)

 5-5 2:38:25 2848

 Yu Zitong said, "As you know, the automobile engine is a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine fueled by gasoline or light diesel fuel, which requires high power per liter of cylinder displacement, small mass per unit of power, easy starting, and low vibration and noise. The most critical issue in this is to improve combustion efficiency and run the longest distance with the least amount of fuel consumption."

 Lin Yang is no stranger to mechanical devices, in Falcon these are also required to learn systematically, asked, "Improving combustion efficiency is certainly a good thing, but there will also be many other issues to consider, such as the torque and speed reserve coefficients, etc., there are a lot of difficulties to overcome."

 Yu Zitong glanced at him strangely and said, "I've often heard these words at my father's place as well... I originally thought that you just know how to drive, but I didn't expect you to be quite professional."

 Lin Yang laughed, "A good driver and half a mechanic, haven't you heard of that?"

 Yu Zitong said, "I can also drive, but how come I don't feel that I have the potential of a car mechanic?"

 Lin Yang Le said: "Beautiful young lady which can be suitable to do this kind of rough work, as long as there is a car to match on the line, don't want to think of all-round development." Yu Zitong covered her mouth and laughed: "Just you like to develop fully."

 Lin Yang smiled and said, "I've never been a well-rounded talent, huh, no more nonsense, I still want to hear your father's tall tales."

 Yu Zitong flashed her small fists in front of him in a demonstrative manner and said, "You're the one who's talking nonsense, not me." Lin Yang's sympathy for the beautiful girl was in full flood, and he could only resign himself to being threatened by her.

 Yu Zitong won the battle, her tightened brows loosened a bit, and continued, "My father said that this transformation device of theirs will use more of some special structures to make the automobile engine more qualitatively smaller and lighter at the same time as it is high-speed and strengthened. The most important thing is that they secretly contacted some foreign engine manufacturers to conduct preliminary tests, and found that the performance of the improved engine is more stable and reliable, while the fuel consumption was surprisingly reduced by twenty-five percent."

 Lin Yang was shocked and said, "Twenty-five percent?" Lin Yang was quite clear about what saving twenty-five percent of fuel meant. An ordinary family car consumes about eight liters of fuel for a hundred kilometers, and if you can save twenty-five percent, that means you can save two liters of fuel.

 What it means to save two liters of oil per vehicle per hundred kilometers for the precious non-renewable oil resources is self-evident. Oil resources are a national strategic resource, and to paraphrase an old saying, it is the blood of the national economy, and the huge profit margin is almost unimaginable.

 Of course, Lin Yang hadn't seen this transformation device with his own eyes, its authenticity was still to be proven, and Yu Zitong wasn't a professional after all, so she wouldn't be very clear about the exact principles involved, but even if she was clear about it, it was still a secret of someone's company, and it was impossible for her to tell herself about it. But if it was the truth, it would be a remarkable achievement.

 Thinking of this Lin Yang said, "Has this device issued any authoritative reports when it was tested abroad?" Yu Zitong nodded and said, "It's in the final testing stage right now, and there are still two or three months to go before the final report is issued."

 Lin Yang nodded, "So have you started applying for a patent?" Yu Zitong exclaimed, "Oops, I forgot about that!"

 Lin Yang said strangely, "Doesn't your company have a legal department, how can you forget such things?"

 Yu Zitong sighed and said: "Our company's profits in the past two years have all been invested in the research and development of the engine modification device, for some departments can be saved on the province, I'm not hiding from you, responsible for legal affairs, even I'm the general manager, including only two people. This modification device was only successfully tested in the middle of last year, and then urgently sent to foreign countries for modification and testing, and my father passed away at the end of the year after a long period of labor, during this period I had to deal with too many things, and didn't have the time to do these things."

 Lin Yang sighed, "For the sake of your father, for the sake of your company, this matter must be done immediately. Not only do we have to apply domestically, but we also have to synchronize the application in Europe and North America, it would be a shame if someone else snatched it first."

 Lin Yang suddenly had a bold idea in his heart, since foreigners can build cars, why can't we build them ourselves? We are not dumber than others, others can do it we must also be able to do, and can do better. We can not only build cars, we can also build airplanes, regional airplanes, mainline airliners, with our people's intelligence, nothing can be difficult for us.

 Lin Yang only felt his heart thumping, himself stunned by his own thoughts, yet a bit jubilant.

 Yu Zitong naturally couldn't guess what was going on in Lin Yang's mind and smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid that even if I wanted to apply now, I wouldn't have the chance."

 Lin Yang remembered what she said about the An Kai Group thing, and busily said, "Don't say such things until you've reached the final step, what exactly did that An Zifeng do to force your company to this point? Is it related to the engine modification device?"

 Yu Zitong sighed: "No, the engine modification device is our company's top secret project, know this thing, the whole company is only four or five people, if it is not to come to this last step today, and then confidentiality does not mean much, I will not tell you. To say this thing also blame me, blame me too greedy."

 Lin Yang frowned and listened to her continue, "This business circle in Tianjing is actually not too big, not too small, I met An Zifeng at a businessmen's party in March this year, and then he started to find reasons to approach me. I can only keep my distance from him, but we who run a company do business with a smile on our faces, as long as he doesn't go too far, we only have to tolerate what we can, and we can't even say anything too heavy."

 Lin Yang nodded, a girl, especially a pretty girl, circling around in the mall where intrigues and schemes abound, having to earn profits for the company as well as protect herself, the hardships could be imagined.

 Yu Zitong continued, "In April of this year, An Zifeng introduced a few customers to me, saying that they needed to purchase about thirty million dollars of exhaust gas purification devices. I found out through some channels that they were purchasing groups sent by some local governments, and at that time they paid a deposit of eight million dollars very quickly, signed a purchasing contract, and agreed to pay the rest of the cash when they delivered the goods four months later."

 Lin Yang sighed in his heart, he didn't need to think about it to know that this was definitely a trap.

 "At that time our company was fully coping with the foreign tests of the engine improvement device and needed a lot of financial support. And this business came down to a cost of twenty million dollars for us, with a profit of nearly ten million dollars, very profitable. Although I don't trust this An Zifeng person very much, but those few purchasing groups are the real deal, and since we are in dire need of a large amount of funds to support the engine improvement project, I can only take this risk." Yu Zitong's eyes reddened again as she said this, Lin Yang hurriedly patted her shoulder as a sign of comfort.

 Yu Zitong organized her emotions and continued, "At that time, I raised two million dollars in capital to start production first, and strangely enough the several banks that usually had good relations with us were unwilling to provide us with loans for inexplicable reasons."

 "So at this time you went to borrow money from An Zifeng?" Lin Yang asked.

 Yu Zitong nodded and said, "Already signed the contract and received the deposit, if the contract is broken, it will be double compensation, I have no choice but to borrow from Ankai Group."

 Lin Yang nodded, "I guess at that time, An Zifeng must have agreed to it painfully." Yu Zitong laughed bitterly, "I thought at the time that it was because he wanted to please me that he was so generous, who knew-"

 "Seek skin with the tiger!" Lin Yang concluded.

 Yu Zitong nodded her head and said, "Yes. Originally, he promised to pay back the ten million dollars after the execution of that contract, where did he know that a week ago he started to force me to pay the debt and restricted me to return the ten million dollars within ten days, or else he would file a lawsuit to the court and apply for compulsory execution."

 Lin Yang said, "Those so-called procurement contracts are naturally unenforceable as well."

 Yu Zitong helplessly said, "I only realized it later, although the identities of those purchasing groups were real, their purchases were funded by Ankai Group. Even if they were able to fulfill the contract by then, it would still be too late to rescue the company from its current predicament. I only have three days left, to raise ten million dollars in three days, that's an impossible task for our Chuangli Century, and our Chuangli Century's total assets are just over ten million dollars." --
