Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said, "It's useless to me. I can't communicate with him directly."

Park Hyun-ya understood and said, "Then what do you want to say to him? I'll help you translate."

Fang Zhicheng was more concerned about the 5 billion US dollar investment project of the Silan Group. "Chairman Park, first of all, I apologize. I didn't know you were the chairman of the Silan Group last time, so I was offended when we met. As far as I know, you are communicating with the Hanzhou government about a super large project. I want to talk to you about whether you can add some elements to the project."

Park Dazhong smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you hope to increase investment in the Internet industry in the project, right? But the Silan Group previously wanted to introduce some manufacturing factories."

Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Pu Dazhong was indeed a shrewd businessman. He knew the rest of what he was going to say after he had only said the first part.

Fang Zhicheng smiled awkwardly and said, "That's right! I can tell you something. This year's two sessions report has clearly pointed out that we should support the development of e-commerce. Now China's e-commerce is on the eve of taking off. If the Silan Consortium enters the market now, it can seize a good business opportunity."

Park Dazhong was silent for a moment and said, "I have carefully studied your last plan and asked the group's strategic planning department to hold a meeting to discuss it. It is undeniable that this is a very good field, but for the Silan Consortium, we have invested in many projects before, but this area is still blank, and it is not what we are good at."

Since Park Dazhong has studied it, he must be interested. Fang Zhicheng said, "If possible, can I send you more information?"

Park Dae-chung said, "You can ask Hyun-A to give it to me."

After chatting with Park Dae-chung for about ten minutes, the communication was a little difficult due to the language barrier. After hanging up the phone, Fang Zhicheng asked Park Hyun-a to pass the planning materials of the Xiaguang Internet Industrial Base and Sky Supermarket Network to Park Dae-chung.

Zang Yi sat in the office with a look of helplessness and resentment on his face. His contact with the Silan Group was intermittent. Every time he urged them, they always delayed with various reasons. He also learned from other channels that the Silan Group was in contact with other cities, which meant that Hanzhou had other competitors and it would not be easy to get this big project.

Zang Yi was very familiar with the situation in Hanzhou. It ranked in the middle in Huainan Province. If it was placed in the whole country, its position would be even lower.

A 5 billion US dollar investment is enough to support the development of a city for nearly 20 years. It would be bad if it slipped away from our hands.

Therefore, Zang Yi’s mentality has changed from before. He is ready to stop bargaining with the Silan Group and directly give out the most resources he can get with his authority.

Zang Yi personally called the contact person in charge of this matter at Silan Group.

The contact person was named Song Yan, the project manager of Silan Consortium in China. Song Yan answered the phone, a little surprised, and asked with a smile: "Mayor Zang, do you have any instructions?"

Zang Yi said calmly, "Boss Song, it's all about investment. We have been in contact for three or four months. This is Hanzhou's key project this year, and it's also the project I'm focusing on. Now there's no progress at all, which makes me very embarrassed."

Song Yan sighed and said, "Mayor Zang, you know that the decision was made by the Korean headquarters, and I also want to implement it quickly so that I can execute it. But the headquarters has not responded yet, and it seems that the plan needs to be adjusted."

"Adjustment?" Zang Yi was thinking, "Boss Song, can you reveal a little bit?"

Song Yan naturally wouldn't tell the truth to Zang Yi. The two of them were close friends, but when it came to their own interests, they wouldn't be too straightforward. Song Yan shook his head helplessly and said, "I'm not sure either."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries. Although Song Yan did not tell the truth, Zang Yi could hear some mystery from Song Yan's words. This matter might be caused by some changes on the part of Silan Group.

"Cunning Korean!" Zang Yi shook his head helplessly.

When Zang Yi was working in the Northeast Revitalization Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, he dealt with Koreans a lot. Korean businessmen are the most hypocritical, unlike businessmen from island countries. Although this is a country that lacks vitality in business, they are very principled and rule-bound in doing things. Korean businessmen often have no principles for the sake of profit, so you can't guess what they are thinking.

At this time, the secretary outside knocked on the door and reported: "Director Mo of Xiaguang District is here."

Zang Yi nodded and said, "Let him in."

Mo Jin walked slowly into the office. Zang Yi smiled and said, "Please sit down!"

Mo Jin smiled awkwardly and said, "Mayor Zang, first of all, I have to apologize to you. You gave me a lot of instructions before, but I didn't follow them resolutely."

Zang Yi waved his hand and said with a carefree smile: "Comrade Mo Jin, let's not talk about the past. We should look to the future. It's not too late for you to choose to stand with me now. Besides, some of our previous cooperation was very tacit."

Zang Yi's attitude made Mo Jin feel much more at ease. He had completely fallen out with Fang Zhicheng at the Standing Committee meeting, which left him with no other way out. The only way now was to get closer to Zang Yi, who had repeatedly extended olive branches to him.

Of course, Mo Jin knew that since he was surrendering, he had to show some value to get Zang Yi's attention. Mo Jin took out some materials from the file bag he was carrying, handed them to Zang Yi, and said, "This is the information about officials in the Xiaguang officialdom that you asked me to compile before; in addition, there is also a detailed information about the situation of the industrial park..."

Zang Yi took the materials and nodded with satisfaction. If he wanted to strike Fang Zhicheng, it would not be enough to just put pressure on him at the municipal level. He had to make arrangements around him. Mo Jin was a very useful tool.

Chapter 0805: Thunder in the Silence

The sunlight poured into the balcony, shining brightly or dimly on the ground. Fang Zhicheng walked to the balcony and opened the window. The air outside was very fresh. The smell of spring is always so refreshing. Unknowingly, the cold winter has passed and all things are beginning to revive. Looking into the community, all you can see is green. Some flowers can't hold back and have sprouted.

Xiaguang has also undergone a new transformation in the spring. First of all, the first phase of the Qiong-Han urban integration project has been completed. The inauguration ceremony was held three days ago. Major leaders of the provincial party committee, such as Wen Jinglong and Bu Yiren, attended the ceremony. At the same time, the Qiong-Han urban integration light rail has started construction and is expected to be completed and open to traffic by the end of next year.

Judging from a series of policy documents issued by the provincial party committee, the achievements of the Qiong-Han urban integration project have been preliminarily affirmed. At the same time, the provincial party committee’s major media, such as newspapers and television stations, have launched a series of reports to provide a comprehensive interpretation of the Qiong-Han urban integration project.

The successful application of the PPP model has also attracted the attention of senior central leaders. A similar operating model has been used in China a few years ago, but it is the first time that it has been used in a key government municipal project. Although how the project will be operated in the later stage is still in the exploratory stage, judging from the current trend, the effect and rhythm are much better than when the project is led by the government.

The State Council Research Office has arranged personnel to come to Huainan for field research and investigate the PPP model. It is expected that the PPP model will be gradually opened up in various forms in the next five to six years. This is mainly because private capital has begun to take shape and the desire for investment is very strong. Once the government releases this part of resources, it will be much more active than government capital operation.

Song Wendi was the main person in charge of this project. His contribution to the success was not negligible. Therefore, the staff of the State Council Research Office had an in-depth discussion with Song Wendi. Song Wendi did not hide the starting point of this project. He took out a draft of the project from a few years ago and handed it to the staff of the research office. The draft was signed by Fang Zhicheng.

Song Wendi's move quickly shocked the top leaders of the State Council, because no one expected that the drafter of the Qiong-Han integration project was actually Song Wendi's secretary. At the same time, everyone knew that Fang Zhicheng was also the son of Su Qing, director of the State Council Research Office.

Although there was no reward of any kind, Fang Zhicheng's name became popular again in the Yanjing circle because of Song Wendi's secret promotion. Of course, Fang Zhicheng was unaware of all this because he was in Hanzhou.

Su Mo flipped through an internally circulated document, with a complex look in his eyes. After a long time, he called Su Qing and said in a deep voice: "Sister, have you seen the list of 100 people?"

Su Qing nodded and said, "I just watched it."

The list of 100 people consists of three levels: backbone list, core list, and youth list. Each list will be changed from time to time. Generally, if someone drops off the list, it will be updated. There are many reasons for dropping off the list. Most of the reasons are that the people on the list are directly removed from the echelon due to investigation. Of course, there are also very rare cases where people outside the list suddenly break out and stand out, replacing the people at the bottom of the list.
