During the spring and Autumn period, Wu and Yue were often at war. One day, on a ferry on the river at the junction of Wu and Yue, there were more than a dozen Wu and Yue people on board. Neither of them spoke to each other, and the atmosphere was very dull. after leaving the north bank, the ship sailed all the way to the south bank. Just arrived in the middle of the river, suddenly the sky suddenly changed and a strong wind came. At that moment, the sky was covered with dark clouds, the rainstorm poured down, and the turbulent waves rushed to the ferry one after another. The two children in Wu state were so scared that they cried. An old woman in Yue State stumbled and fell in the cabin. The old boatman at the helm tried his best to hold the rudder, and at the same time he called out to everyone to get into the cabin. The other two young boatmen rushed to the mast to untie the ropes, trying to untie the sail. But they couldn't get out of the boat for a moment because of the violent turbulence in the wind and waves. At this time, if we don't untie the silk rope and lower the sail, the ship may turn over, and the situation is very critical. At this critical moment, young passengers, whether from Wu or Yue, rushed to the mast, braved the fierce wind and waves, and went to untie the rope together. They act as well as the left and right hands. After a while, the sail on the ferry finally came down, and the bumping boat got some stability. Looking at the people who were in the same boat and going through the crisis together, Lao Chuangong said with emotion, "how nice it would be if Wu and Yue could live in harmony forever!". Another way of saying, it means that the forces with gratitude and resentment work together for a certain benefit. After adversity, the sword often faces each other as before

Wu Yue Tongzhou in Government Procurement [eNet Silicon Valley Power monograph] with the acceleration of the "era of government procurement", suppliers, as one of the important parties in government procurement, face the rapid expansion of the scale of government procurement, the competition is becoming increasingly fierce, and they often fight for one target. However, when I visited government procurement in a southern county a few days ago, I was glad to hear something new. the Public Security Bureau of the county entrusted the purchasing center to purchase 20 computers through competitive negotiation, and the three invited suppliers gathered in the bidding hall. I thought it was another "war" with strong smoke of gunpowder, and the three suppliers must fight each other. However, unexpectedly, the three suppliers made their own statements according to the process rules. First of all, company B described the advantages of its products. However, when talking about the after-sales service of products, the representative of the company was frank. Because the company's service chain has not been fully established, the timeliness of after-sales service may not be as good as company a and company C, and company a and company C are also in their respective reports In the process of narration, they praised their opponents. After the bidding meeting, the representatives of the three companies also made full communication and decided to establish the "mutual visit" system, regularly observe and inspect, learn from each other's strong points to make up for their shortcomings, improve the product quality to a new height, and jointly commit to the establishment and improvement of the county government procurement market. a bloody bidding meeting has turned into a friendly business association, which is rare in the field of government procurement. When the author laments the magnanimity and magnanimity of the three merchants, he can't help thinking of the allusion of "Wu Yue Tong Zhou" in ancient China. What makes the three suppliers so harmonious? In my opinion, it is the increasing scale of government procurement and its considerable profits. As we all know, government procurement in China from the pilot to promote less than ten years, although the time is short, but the development speed is very fast. The scale of government procurement is increasing year by year, from 65.3 billion yuan in 2001 to 220 billion yuan in 2004, and it is expected to reach 250 billion yuan this year. The growth rate is amazing. According to the international practice, the amount of government procurement generally accounts for 10% - 15% of the GDP of the country in that year. According to this calculation, the scale of government procurement in China should be about 1 trillion yuan per year. It can be seen that the scale of government procurement in China has a huge room for growth. The huge scale of procurement naturally brings development opportunities for suppliers. In the face of this attractive big cake, many suppliers have been attracted to compete in the government procurement market. Products only ask strength, not origin. A target, no matter big or small, many suppliers come up with housekeeping skills to fight to the death. Some win by strength, excellent product performance and good service level, while some suppliers get involved in winning the bid by means of relationships and tricks, which seriously interferes with the order of government procurement. In this context, the government procurement law came into being.
