Fang Zhicheng took out a cigarette, took a deep puff, and said, "In the next three years, housing prices in Dongtai County will more than double. I'm introducing business opportunities to you." Fang Zhicheng said this with confidence. With Dongtai backed by the sea of clouds and several major projects now moving in, housing prices in the future will only far exceed expectations.
Now some sensitive developers have already paid attention to Dongtai. Judging from the recent investment promotion work, real estate enterprises are one of the most active industries. If Hongda Group does not seize the opportunity to enter early, it is very likely to lose this objective share of future growth. Fang Zhicheng has never mentioned this matter to Zhao Qingya, mainly because the timing is not ripe, and he is afraid that Zhao Qingya will think too much and mistakenly think that he wants to use her financial resources to gain political achievements. Now that Dongtai's investment promotion pattern has been determined, it will not seem so utilitarian to invite Zhao Qingya again.
Zhao Qingya laughed twice and said slowly, "I have heard of Xindi Real Estate Development Company. They are short of funds recently and are constantly looking for buyers. However, you also know that Hongda Group mainly focuses on high-end residential areas in real estate development. Xindi Real Estate's projects are a bit too civilian and do not fit our development plan."
Fang Zhicheng blew out two smoke rings and tried to persuade Zhao Qingya: "Sister Ya, have you ever thought that in the future, affordable housing will be the main development direction of real estate. Hongda Group does not need to change its strategy. By acquiring subsidiaries and using them to try to get involved in this field, it is in line with the strategy of diversified development."
Zhao Qingya held her snow-white chin and pondered for a long time, then asked with a smile: "I really don't know what benefits the New World Real Estate Company has given you, and you actually spent so much effort to help it."
Fang Zhicheng laughed twice and said, "Sister Ya, I am the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau, and I am concerned about the development of Dongtai. If Sun Hung Kai Properties' capital chain is really broken, it will cause panic in the real estate industry, which is not conducive to creating a stable investment promotion situation."
"I don't believe you are so selfless!" Zhao Qingya curled her lips and said, "I just took a rough look at the situation of Xindi Real Estate Development Company before. In view of your recommendation, I will learn more about it and arrange people to verify and investigate. If its project can stand the test, then I will consider your suggestion and invest in Xindi Real Estate Development Company to get involved in the field of ordinary commercial residential buildings."
Fang Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why he strongly recommended Sun Hung Kai Properties was not only because Wu Haiyan came to visit him personally, but also because he knew that the Dijing Garden project was a highly competitive residential project even at the provincial level. Not only was the community planning very avant-garde, but the house design was reasonable, the construction was standardized, and the quality was excellent. The reason why the partner withdrew the investment was because the cost was too high and the risk was too great, which led to the current situation.
Fang Zhicheng smiled confidently and said, "Sister Ya, with our relationship, how can I let you suffer a loss? The Phase II project of Dijing Garden is not an unfinished building. Now is a good opportunity to buy at a low price. Once you get it, the input-output ratio can reach more than four times."
Zhao Qingya sighed and said a little unhappily: "Zhicheng, why do I feel that every time you call me, it's to discuss business?"
Fang Zhicheng also noticed this, smiled awkwardly, and said: "Sister Ya, this is probably because only in front of you will I reveal my greedy nature..."
"You're being so frivolous again." Zhao Qingya rolled her eyes and suddenly said, "By the way, the third-party payment license has been approved for application. It is expected to be obtained in about three months."
Fang Zhicheng snapped his fingers and sighed, "This is great news! In the future, all transactions can be carried out on the platform, which will form a very substantial amount of funds. We can make a lot of money just by charging service fees."
Zhao Qingya smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Most consumers now think the Internet is untrustworthy, and only a few people dare to pay directly on e-commerce platforms."
Fang Zhicheng stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then encouraged: "Consumer habits need to be cultivated. Take the home appliance chain industry as an example. In the past, ordinary people believed in state-owned units such as supply and marketing cooperatives. But what about now? The largest companies are all private enterprises."
"What you said makes sense." Zhao Qingya pondered for a moment and sighed, "Recently, several foreign venture capital firms have approached me, hoping to invest, but I politely declined them all."
Fang Zhicheng said with emotion: "Foreign investors are very sensitive to Internet companies. They have experienced the information wave first, so they deeply understand the huge potential contained therein. Although the initial investment is huge, if you can persist, you will definitely reap rich fruits."
Zhao Qingya sighed and said, "If domestic enterprises do not make progress and try to change, it will be difficult for them to survive in the face of foreign capital giants."
Fang Zhicheng feels the same way. He is now actively contacting foreign companies to attract investment, but on the other hand he remains cautious and is always on guard against foreign companies. After all, foreign companies are a double-edged sword. While they can activate the economy, they will also erode the country's interests.
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "I didn't expect Sister Ya to have such a strong sense of national mission."
Zhao Qingya smiled and said, "Patriotism is the family rule of the Zhao family."
Fang Zhicheng suddenly thought of the Zhao family's inheritance of national martial arts, and he suddenly realized something. He thought to himself that the continuation of a family sometimes requires a kind of spiritual inheritance. The Zhao family was able to become a powerful family not by chance, but because of the family rules and teachings that were deeply rooted in their bones, forming a strong cohesive force.
After chatting with Zhao Qingya for a while, I asked about her family situation. Now Hongda Group is basically stable. Zhao Qingya won the approval of the board of directors for her investment decision in Yinzhou Yuhu Ecological Zone, and Lao Foye also transferred her shares to her, making her the second largest shareholder. However, Lao Foye's health condition is getting worse and worse. He has to be hospitalized from time to time, which adds a touch of sadness to the Zhao family.
The arrival of one era is bound to herald the end of another. The moment Zhao Qingya officially boarded the Hongda Group, it represented the withdrawal of Mr. Lafayette.
Fang Zhicheng had a very good impression of Karl Lagerfeld. Although he represented conspiracy in the minds of many people, from his own interactions with him, he could see that his concern for his descendants was beyond words.
Fang Zhicheng was born in a broken family. He was particularly sensitive to family affection and cherished it. He whispered, "I will come to Qiongjin to see grandma in a few days."
Zhao Qingya heard the genuine concern in Fang Zhicheng's words, and her nose felt a little sour. She said "hmm" and sighed, "Okay... Grandma will be very happy when she knows."
After that, Fang Zhicheng began to sort out his work ideas and then reported to Qi Yun. After reporting on the recent main work of the Merchants Bureau and the Merchants Company, Qi Yun revealed a piece of gossip that only a few people knew about. The county government will have an additional deputy county magistrate in the near future. The news came from the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, and it is very likely that it is Fang Zhicheng.
Chapter 0297 Professionals Do Professional Things
Although Song Wendi had hinted that he would promote Fang Zhicheng, Fang Zhicheng still did not expect the news to come so quickly. Fang Zhicheng had just been assigned to Dongtai for a year when he took a step from section chief to deputy division chief. It seemed like a simple step, but it was actually very difficult. Fang Zhicheng broke the record of Yinzhou's officialdom in the past 20 years, becoming the youngest deputy division chief.
Fang Zhicheng graduated two years ago and now he is only 26 years old, but he has become a deputy director-level cadre. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that his future is limitless. Some people even speculate that Fang Zhicheng is most likely a new generation of power in a large family, otherwise it would be impossible for him to be promoted so quickly.
After Sun Weiming heard the news, he was silent for a moment, because he suddenly realized that he was too impatient and made a principled mistake - underestimating his opponent! Because he drove Qian Dechen off the stage, he became more arrogant and ignored Fang Zhicheng's power, trying to completely control Dongtai.
Fang Zhicheng was a variable, but Sun Weiming tried to use tricks to make him a constant, which led to mistakes. Judging from the recent news from the Municipal Party Committee, Song Wendi's attitude towards him has changed, as if he deliberately ignored him.
Dongtai has done a good job in attracting investment. Originally, Song Wendi would praise Sun Weiming by name in various meetings, as if he was entrusting him with an important task. But now Song Wendi seems to have forgotten Sun Weiming and only mentions Dongtai's achievements, but not him as the helmsman.
Sun Weiming was very sensitive. He knew that Song Wendi was ignoring him. In addition, Fang Zhicheng was about to be promoted, so the source must be the conflict between him and Fang Zhicheng.
The previous attempt to transfer Fang Zhicheng out of Dongtai has failed. According to the current situation, Fang Zhicheng may have to continue working in Dongtai, which means that Fang Zhicheng will stay in Dongtai for a long time.
Despite his inner dissatisfaction, Sun Weiming still thought of mending the relationship with Fang Zhicheng. After all, tit-for-tat confrontation would only hurt both sides. There are no eternal enemies in the officialdom, only eternal interests.
He had already thought clearly about Dongtai's achievements. Even if Fang Zhicheng took away some of the credit, it didn't matter. In the final analysis, he, Sun Weiming, was still the county party secretary. As long as he was patient and made steady progress in Dongtai, he would be the winner in the end.
However, can the conflict with Fang Zhicheng be easily eased? Sun Weiming's face showed a solemn expression, and suddenly he remembered something and wrote the word "Qi Yun" on the notebook.
Fang Zhicheng walked out of Qi Yun's office and soon received a call from Xing Jike. He seemed to be happier than himself and euphemistically said that he had also put a lot of effort into it. Fang Zhicheng responded vaguely. Naturally, he knew Xing Jike's thoughts and hoped that he would say a few good words for him in the city. Since the two had a private conversation, Fang Zhicheng has not made any move here. Xing Jike couldn't help but feel a little restless and wondered if he was fooled by Fang Zhicheng.
In fact, Xing Jike didn't think clearly and didn't see through the situation. The city's attitude towards Sun Weiming had already changed. Fang Zhicheng didn't point it out, thinking to himself that if Xing Jike could experience it himself, he would understand it one day.
After returning to the office, a directors' meeting was held. Fang Zhicheng explained the key issues to be resolved in the near future at the meeting. The Investment Promotion Bureau will continue to increase its efforts in attracting investment and make the final sprint to complete the annual task, while striving to exceed the task by 130%. Dongtai Company is in the initial stage. While sorting out the process and standardizing the system, it must try to open up the situation and open it to enterprises across the county, and complete the target of incubating 100 enterprises by the end of the year.
The task set by Fang Zhicheng was very heavy, but the old directors were unprecedentedly optimistic, because the China Merchants Group had repeatedly broken records since its inception, and everyone had long been accustomed to Fang Zhicheng's ambitions. Wei Xi, as the new director who replaced Zou Yu, showed a difficult expression on his face.
Fang Zhicheng saw what Wei Xi was thinking and asked with a smile, "Director Wei, if you have any questions, you might as well speak up."
Wei Xi touched the teacup and sighed, "Director Fang, I think we should take it slow in attracting investment. We can't try to get everything done in one go. It's enough to complete this year's task target. If we exceed the target, I'm afraid next year's target will be an astronomical figure, right?"
