After talking to Wang Chong on the phone, Fang Zhicheng frowned and thought for a long time. According to Jiang Wenlan's pace, once he becomes the president of Yunhai Chamber of Commerce, the next step is very likely to officially announce the Golden Street project. He consulted Ning Xiangcao about the situation yesterday. Jiang Wenlan did not give in. Not giving in is not a bad thing, which means that there is still a chance. If he refuses directly, that would be the worst result. The most urgent task is to add fuel to the fire and attack Jiang Wenlan again.
After thinking through all the connections, Fang Zhicheng called Song Wendi. Song Wendi had just finished a research meeting and was sitting in the car on his way to the municipal party committee to attend a meeting. Seeing that it was Fang Zhicheng calling, he answered the call directly and asked softly, "Zhicheng, what's the matter?"
Fang Zhicheng said softly: "Boss, I have a big project here and I urgently need your support!"
"Oh? What kind of project is it?" Song Wendi frowned slightly. If it was a normal project, Dongtai County would be able to solve it. If it required the city committee to step in, it would have to be a project worth at least 500 million yuan.
Fang Zhicheng said slowly, "The total investment of the project is 10 billion."
Song Wendi frowned slightly and questioned: "Dongtai wants to swallow such a big project, I'm afraid it will suffer from indigestion."
Fang Zhicheng had already guessed Song Wendi's idea, which was also what everyone else thought. They thought the project was too big and Dongtai would not be willing to compete. That's why Fang Zhicheng thought of asking Song Wendi to come forward and coordinate with him to integrate Yinzhou's comprehensive strength. Only in this way could they win the Golden Street project.
Fang Zhicheng was very familiar with Song Wendi's personality. He piqued his interest with a few words, and then slowly explained the situation, "Huaying Investment Group is planning to launch a project called Gold Street to create the largest spot gold trading market in China. At the same time, it will also build the largest gold trading platform in China based on this market. The project investment is expected to reach 10 billion, and the actual annual sales volume is very likely to reach 100 billion."
"Huaying Investment Group?" Song Wendi had never heard of this investment group before.
Fang Zhicheng quickly added: "Ning Xiangcao is the vice president of Huaying Investment Group."
Chapter 0267: The Quirky Qi Yu
Hearing the words "Ning Xiangcao", Song Wendi suddenly understood, laughed, and said, "How sure are you?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "When doing investment promotion work, even if you are not sure, you have to face the challenge head-on. It's hard for me to answer your question."
Song Wendi shook his head and said, "I know you, kid. If you are not 70% sure, you will not call me. How about this, you help me contact Jiang Wenlan, and I will meet with him in the near future to discuss in detail the possibility of the Golden Street project settling in Dongtai."
Fang Zhicheng felt relieved when he saw that Song Wendi was willing to help him. The Golden Street project was expected to be even larger than the 4 billion project of the Qi Group, which was beyond his ability. In the future, it would provide a huge trading market of 100 billion for the local area, and the government must provide some special support policies for this project.
Fang Zhicheng thought about it, then added with a smile: "Boss, now that I have completed the Golden Street project, I can retire with honor, right?"
Song Wendi was slightly startled, and asked with a smile: "Why do you want to go back to Yinzhou?"
Fang Zhicheng scratched his head and said, "I am mainly worried that if I am not around, you will not be able to work smoothly."
Song Wendi smiled unhappily and said, "You are quite confident. You have done a good job in Dongtai. I originally planned to keep you in Dongtai for only one year, but now it seems that you are very suitable for your current position and role. For a cadre, grassroots work is very important. You are still young and need to be tempered before you can take on important responsibilities in the future."
Fang Zhicheng knew what was going on. He asked Song Wendi when he would be transferred back to Yinzhou just to test the waters. Since he knew that Song Wendi was going to keep him in Dongtai, he had to make a new plan and concentrate on dealing with the series of tasks at hand.
Fang Zhicheng nodded and said in a deep voice: "Boss, don't worry, I will never embarrass you in Dongtai."
"I still remember the first day we met, when I asked you what your biggest competitive advantage was. You said two words to me: 'lucky general'. Now it seems that you really have this quality. Even in Dongtai, you can constantly surprise me." Song Wendi smiled faintly, "By the way, Dongtai's application for a bonded zone has been launched and is expected to be approved by the end of the year. By then, your work in attracting investment in Dongtai will definitely have new breakthroughs."
Fang Zhicheng figured out Song Wendi's good intentions. Song Wendi spent a lot of effort in applying for the bonded area, and even went against Li Siyuan's wishes to carry it out. Once the bonded area is successful, the difficulty of attracting investment will be greatly reduced. In other words, anyone sitting in Fang Zhicheng's current position will achieve great success.
That is why Song Wendi hoped that Fang Zhicheng would stay in Dongtai for a longer period of time. As the saying goes, good things should be kept in the family, and the direct benefits brought by the bonded zone that he had worked so hard to apply for must be in his own hands.
After figuring everything out, Fang Zhicheng's thinking became clearer and broader, and he also had a clearer plan for Dongtai's investment promotion structure.
Once the bonded area is successfully established, Dongtai will become the most active area in foreign trade in Huainan Province, and in this way, Dongtai's investment promotion pattern can be elevated to the national level. In order to ensure that this work can be successfully completed, the Merchants Bureau must now begin to make supporting preparations, such as setting up a special foreign trade department and recruiting talents with basic foreign trade qualities.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Zhicheng opened the window and ventilated the office. There was a knock on the door behind him. Fang Zhicheng turned around and was very surprised. He smiled and said, "What a distinguished guest! Why are you here?"
Qi Yu threw her bag on the sofa, sat with her legs crossed, and looked at Fang Zhicheng with a sweet smile. She was dressed very eye-catchingly today, with a red tight-fitting base shirt and a white embroidered midi skirt. Her smooth and beautiful face was like a blooming flower, her smart and clear eyes were full of life, and on her straight nose was a pair of small gold-rimmed glasses. Her tender pink lips were cute and naive, her slender figure was fascinating, and her crystal-clear skin instantly made the atmosphere in the office bright and cheerful.
Qi Yu held her chin, stared at Fang Zhicheng fiercely, and said, "I'm not happy!"
"Ah?" Fang Zhicheng was confused by Qi Yu's words.
Qi Yu frowned and squinted at Fang Zhicheng, saying, "You are a hypocritical man."
"Ah???" Fang Zhicheng was getting more and more confused. He smiled bitterly and said, "Assistant Qi, if you have any dissatisfaction, feel free to say it, but don't just say half a sentence, making me look innocent."
Qi Yu snorted and said, "Why have you never called me?"
Fang Zhicheng was slightly stunned, and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid of disturbing your work..."
"Excuse!" Qi Yu glared at Fang Zhicheng. "I thought you treated me as a friend, but I didn't expect you didn't care about me at all. It's really chilling."
Chinese women would only say such words to the men they love, and Qi Yu only regarded Fang Zhicheng as a friend. Fang Zhicheng scratched his head, knowing that Qi Yu was different from ordinary Chinese women. She had lived abroad for a long time, and her thinking habits still retained the foreign way, which was more direct. Fang Zhicheng poured Qi Yu a glass of boiled water and said apologetically: "It's not that I don't want to call you, but I'm afraid you will think too much if I'm too attentive."
Qi Yu was not easily irritated by Fang Zhicheng's reason. Qi Yu sighed and said, "I know what you are thinking. When you saw that the project had attracted investment, you kicked me aside. I was so sincere and regarded you as my best friend in the mainland."
Fang Zhicheng saw that Qi Yu was really angry. He didn't have a good way to deal with it for a moment, so he could only smile bitterly and said, "How about I treat you to a meal as an apology?"
"That's more like it!" Qi Yu suddenly smiled and laughed.
Fang Zhicheng was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he had been tricked by Qi Yu. Qi Yu pretended to be very angry and confronted him, not because she really thought Fang Zhicheng was not loyal enough and ignored her.
Fang Zhicheng shrugged helplessly, thinking that Qi Yu was really clever and eccentric. He was caught off guard and was fooled by her. He sighed softly, "You scared me. I really thought you were angry."
Qi Yu shook her finger and smiled faintly: "I'm not that stingy. If you send me text messages every day, I will think you have ulterior motives."
Fang Zhicheng nodded quickly and said, "I am a very serious person and I won't harass beautiful women for no reason."
Qi Yu snapped her fingers, picked up her small bag, and said, "It's getting late, can we go eat now?"
Fang Zhicheng turned his wrist and found that it was just past ten o'clock. However, Qi Yu was a key client and accompanying her was also an important job, so he packed up a little and left the Merchants Bureau with Qi Yu. They found a Western restaurant with a nice environment, ordered two cups of coffee, and started chatting.
