It is said that Bald Eagles and Toyota cars in Europe are very troublesome now. The low price and superior performance have seized a lot of market share. "Zhang Junping didn't look at Smith's face at all, and said as usual.

"Mr. Zhang!" Smith couldn't bear to interrupt Zhang Junping by opening his mouth, wanting to remind him that it was impolite to do so.

"Oh! By the way, Mr. Smith, has the problem of burning oil in the engines of our Volkswagen Group cars been resolved?" Zhang Junping smiled and asked another question as if he didn't hear Smith's words.

Smith's anger was extinguished in an instant.

As a director and executive of the Volkswagen Group, he is naturally aware of Volkswagen's performance and existing problems.

What shocked Smith was not this, but what Zhang Junping said inside and outside the words.

Don't take yourself too seriously, this world can leave anyone alone.

If you are not willing to cooperate, some people cooperate, such as Toyota from Benzi, Chevrolet from Bald Eagle, and old competitor Mercedes-Benz.

There are still many competitors in this world.

On the second day, the negotiation went smoothly, and some small things that were stuck at first were no longer a problem.

A week later, BJ Automobile Factory and Volkswagen successfully reached a consensus and initially signed a letter of intent for cooperation.

The letter of intent does not mean that the final contract is reached, but that both parties have reached a cooperation in good faith.

After Smith's team goes back, they have to report to the board of directors, and will not sign a formal contract until the board of directors makes a final decision.

After seeing off Smith's inspection team, Zhang Junping was relieved.

Alas, the task is finally completed.

These days, I don't know how the art company is doing.

After Zhang Junping returned to the city hall with the car that saw him off, he held another summary meeting.

At the meeting, Zhang Junping was called out and praised severely.

Zhang Junping listened with a smile.

I secretly slandered in my heart, is there any use for birds?

At most, a city-level advanced individual cannot be promoted.

His age is over.

He also didn't want to leave the art company.

After the meeting, the city government organized another celebration banquet.

The main leaders of the municipal government and the municipal party committee also participated and toasted everyone.

After dinner, Zhang Junping returned to the art company.

Today, the art company has moved to the Royal Granary at No. 22 Dongsishitiao.

The Royal Granary at No. 22 Dongsishitiao, also known as Nanxin Cang, or Dongmen Cang, had a total of 76 buildings in its heyday.

The granary was called a granary in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There were five rooms in one, each about 24 meters long, 17 meters deep, and 7 meters high.

That is to say, the area of ​​each block is more than [-] square meters, which is one of the reasons why Zhang Junping chose this place.

With the decline of the Qing Dynasty, most of the Nanxin warehouses were demolished due to various reasons.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were still [-] warehouses left. Later, due to the construction of the country, some of the warehouses with serious damage were demolished.

There are only nine warehouses left, including the Longmen, the official hall, the supervisory duty station, the official duty station, the department room, the lobby, the changing room, the alarm bell tower, the tank warehouse, the Taicang hall, the well, the gate, and the warehouse temple. All the temples and land temples were also demolished.

The remaining nine warehouses were assigned to department stores as warehouses.

Although there are only nine warehouses left, the area is large enough.

This area of ​​warehouses plus the damaged warehouses and the ruins of warehouse management rooms covers an area of ​​more than 3 square meters.

The area of ​​more than 40 acres of land is enough to toss.

Thanks to department stores.

The department store is so awesome that it used a wall to enclose the 40 mu of land.

However, no matter how powerful the department store is, it will still be cheaper than the art company in the end.

In fact, the department store is still not good enough, and more than half of the Nanxincang site is occupied by the General Hospital of the Military Region.

In the compound of the General Hospital of the Military Region, until later generations, there is still a wall foundation of a warehouse.

After the department store surrounded the Nanxin warehouse, it built a large iron gate on Dongsishitiao Street to facilitate the entry and exit of cars.

Now there are three signs hanging on the wall next to the gate, BJ Art Company, BJ Painting Store Magazine, and Chinese Art Appreciation Magazine.

The gate was open, Zhang Junping was pushing the car, and was stopped when he was about to go in.

"Comrade, who are you looking for?" an old man looked at Zhang Junping and asked.

Looking at the old man at the door, Zhang Junping smiled.

Who is this? It's so weird that he even arranged a reception room.

"Hi sir, I am the manager of this company." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Are you the manager of the company?" The old man looked at Zhang Junping in disbelief.

That means you are young, who are you fooling?

He didn't have all his hair, yet he dared to call him a manager.

"Just give Lu Guozhong a call and you'll find out!" Zhang Junping saw the old man's distrust and said with a smile.

"Wait a minute!" The old man didn't drive Zhang Junping away directly.

Instead, go into the reception room and make the phone call.

After a while, the old man came out and said cautiously: "Manager, I... I didn't know you were the manager, please don't blame me."

"It's okay, can I go in now?"

"Yes, you can go in!" The old man said with a smile.

Zhang Junping nodded to the old man, and pushed his bicycle into Nanxin warehouse.

After walking a few steps, Lu Guozhong trotted up to meet him.

"Manager, you are back!"

"I'm back!" Zhang Junping pushed the bicycle into the bicycle shed and parked it.

Lu Guozhong has been following behind Zhang Junping.

"Come on, walk around with me, I haven't been to this Nanxincang yet." Zhang Junping said to Lu Guozhong with a smile.

Zhang Junping walked around the nine warehouses without saying a word the whole time.

Lu Guozhong was a little apprehensive, not knowing what Zhang Junping meant.

When I came back, I didn't go into the office, but just walked around in the yard.

Zhang Junping was thinking about how to make better use of Nanxincang.

During Zhang Junping's absence, the art company was basically at a standstill.

Every day, it is to provide training for newly recruited employees.

Ask the teachers from the School of Foreign Languages ​​to come and teach them English.

Ask teachers from the Academy of Painting and Calligraphy of the Central Academy of Fine Arts to tell them the history of calligraphy and painting.

In addition, the acquisition of calligraphy and painting has not stopped, and the location is still at BJ's painting shop.

No other progress has been made.

"Old Lu, ask someone to clean up those bricks and tiles in the yard tomorrow.

Find a quiet place and put them neatly.

Also, the foundations of the old building were all demolished. Zhang Junping didn't speak until he returned to the bicycle shed.

"Okay manager, I'll contact you right away." Lu Guozhong quickly nodded and agreed.

Just now, when Zhang Junping was thinking about the problem, the momentum on his body unconsciously released, making Lu Guozhong unable to breathe.

"Let's go back to the office and meet with everyone.

Invite you to dinner tonight! "Zhang Junping laughed.

"Manager, the office is here!" Lu Guozhong hurriedly led the way.

"After I asked the secretary for instructions, the warehouse in this row was transformed into an office.

Your office is next to the secretary's office.

Considering that you and the secretary still have to create and receive guests, you and the secretary occupy a warehouse.

The secretary occupies two rooms, and you occupy three rooms.

In another warehouse, five offices were separated. "Lu Guozhong quickly introduced the layout of the office.

"Old Lu, I occupy three rooms, and my master occupies two rooms? Are you scolding me?" Zhang Junping stopped and asked.

"Manager, this was personally arranged by the secretary, saying that you are the core of the art company.

Your office represents the face of the company, so it must be decorated with style.

Therefore, I have arranged three rooms for you according to the secretary's instructions. "Lu Guozhong quickly explained.

Hearing that it was arranged by Wu Xinping, Zhang Junping didn't say anything else.

It's useless to talk to Lu Guozhong about this matter.

"I'm going to say hello to my master. Please inform all the department leaders that a meeting will be held in my office in half an hour." After Zhang Junping explained, he walked into Wu Xinping's office.

Wu Xinping is standing in front of the painting case and creating.

Seeing Zhang Junping coming in, he put down the brush, took a towel and wiped his hands and smiled at Zhang Junping, "Are you done?"

"I'm done! I just sent the people from Prussia away this morning." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"This warehouse is very good. Not to mention warm in winter and cool in summer, the roof is also high, so I don't feel stuffy at all when I stay in the house." Wu Xinping walked to the reception area with a smile and sat down.

"Master, there is no one like you. I haven't come back for a few days, so you put me on the fire." Zhang Junping didn't let him go, he could only sit down on the opposite side of Wu Xinping, and began to complain.

"Why did I put you on the fire?" Wu Xinping asked with a smile.

"A warehouse has five rooms, you give me three rooms, and you occupy two rooms.

You took care of your apprentice, I know that you are a gentleman.

Those who don't know, don't scold me for not knowing how to respect teachers. Zhang Junping complained with a smile.

"You are the manager, you are in charge of the art company, and you are asked to report on work, negotiate business and so on, how can you do it without a bigger place?

Three rooms are just right, one office plus reception area, one studio, and one small meeting room.

Take a look for yourself later, if there is something you are not satisfied with, you can adjust it yourself. "Wu Xinping said with a smile.

"Okay! Let's do this for now!

I'm going to ask the heir of Shi Shilei to come over and have a look.

Reorganize the yard. In addition, there is an open space on the north side, about three or four acres of land. It seems to be an abandoned yard outside the courtyard wall.

I plan to take the abandoned yard and add these several acres of land to build a modern office building and a modern warehouse with more than five floors.

These warehouses are all used as art exhibition halls. "Zhang Junping expressed his thoughts.

"Build modern office buildings and warehouses?

The company has not yet started to make a profit, so it is not appropriate to build a building now, right? "Wu Xinping reminded.

"Master, it doesn't mean that it will be built immediately.

This is a plan, but the place has to come first.

The country's reform and opening up, whether it is enterprise production or urban construction, is accelerating.

If I don't rush over to the yard I just fell in love with, it might be snatched away by someone else. Zhang Junping explained with a smile.

"Yeah! It's okay to come here first. But you have to take charge of this matter. Your master and my old face are not as effective as your old father-in-law." Wu Xinping joked.

"It's fine if I go, I've done meritorious service to the country.

If you want a broken yard, the city should agree. "Zhang Junping laughed.
