The tea ceremony is the hand. With the popularity of Kung Fu tea in China, most officials now pay attention to making friends with tea. Drinking tea can wake you up, express your inner thoughts, and is a means of communicating with others.
Zang Yi thought that the communication with Song Yan had gradually eliminated his initial vigilance, and said, "There are many opportunities. It depends on whether you, Mr. Song, will give them the opportunity!"
Song Yan took a sip of tea. Although the brewing technique was very rough, he could tell that the tea leaves were old enough. Pu'er tea is not the best when stored for a long time. The best age is 8-15 years.
Song Yan put down his teacup and said, "Mayor Zang, I know why you asked me out. I'll tell you the truth, I haven't received any notification from the headquarters yet."
Zang Yi frowned and asked, "Can I talk to your President Park?"
Song Yan showed an embarrassment on his face and said, "Mayor Zang, to be honest, it is difficult for Chairman Park and I to communicate directly. Generally speaking, I can only report to the vice president in charge of the Asian business department."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Zang Yi's eyes, and he said, "It seems that the Silan Financial Group is about to give up Hanzhou."
Song Yan thought for a moment and said, "Mayor Zang, I actually have some news that I can reveal to you."
"Oh?" Zang Yi's face was serious.
Song Yan said: "In fact, there is a reason why Chairman Park decided to go to Hanzhou. Chairman Park's daughter has been studying in China. Of course, few people in the consortium know this news. I only found some clues recently."
Zang Yi nodded. After Song Yan's reminder, he suddenly realized that there were too many third- and fourth-tier cities like Hanzhou in China. The Silan Group could get the best policy support in any city if it invested 5 billion US dollars in a project. So why did they choose Hanzhou
Zang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he knew the reason why Park Dazhong chose Hanzhou, it was good. With clues for a breakthrough, he would not be so passive.
Zang Yi raised his coffee cup, smiled at Song Yan and said, "Thank you, Mr. Song. The news you gave me is very important."
Song Yan knew Zang Yi's power in China. Although he worked for the Silan Group, he had been working in China. It was inevitable that he would need help from Zang Yi in the future.
Song Yan said calmly: "Mayor Zang is too polite. We are all friends, and we should help each other."
The two chatted for a few more minutes, and Song Yan's phone suddenly rang. He looked puzzled, then answered the call and communicated in Korean. Zang Yi didn't understand Korean, but from Song Yan's expression and attitude, he could guess that it was a call from the Korean headquarters.
After the call ended, Song Yan showed a complicated smile. After thinking about it, he decided to tell Zang Yi the news.
"What a coincidence. The headquarters just called and mentioned the 5 billion US dollar project in China." Song Yan said while organizing his words, "Finally, we decided to settle in Hanzhou."
Zang Yi exhaled heavily and said, "That's great!"
However, Song Yan seemed to have a hint of helplessness on his face. "However, the project plan needs to be revised. The original plan to invest in the industrial park has been cancelled. Now we have changed our strategy and are preparing to invest in the Internet industry."
"What?" Zang Yi frowned, looking incredulous.
Song Yan said: "I didn't hear it clearly on the phone just now. The last time President Park went to Hanzhou for an inspection, he learned that Hanzhou was not only building an industrial park, but also creating an Internet industry base. He was particularly interested in the Internet industry. The Strategy Department has studied it and found that it will be the focus of China's future economic growth."
Zang Yi couldn't understand, so he shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That's not right. Chairman Park focused on the industrial park at the time and didn't touch upon the Internet industry. There must be something wrong here."
Song Yan comforted him, "Mayor Zang, although we will not invest in the industrial park, the headquarters has decided to invest in Hanzhou. The funds may not be as much as 5 billion US dollars, but it is still beneficial to the development of Hanzhou. Overall, it is also a good thing. Of course, you now need to submit a new policy support."
Song Yan saw the irritation on Zang Yi's face and mistakenly thought that he was upset because the headquarters had changed its investment plan. He didn't know that Zang Yi was actually upset because the Silan Consortium wanted to invest in Hanzhou's Internet base, which gave him another hard slap in the face.
In his economic debate with Fang Zhicheng, he was completely defeated, both in terms of national trends and attracting capital.
Chapter 0811: Efforts to Influence Successors
After parting with Song Yan, Zang Yi immediately called his confidants in Hanzhou and asked them to investigate Park Dazhong's daughter. After returning to Hanzhou, the information about Park Hyun-ya was also placed on Zang Yi's desk.
The confidant hired a professional private detective, who did his work very carefully. He took many photos of Park Hyun-a's daily life, including scenes of her going in and out with Fang Zhicheng.
Zang Yi read the private detective's investigation report carefully, and was surprised by the content. He showed a hint of helpless self-mockery. Since he entered the officialdom, others have always envied his luck, because there are always unexpected opportunities for him. Because of his luck in the officialdom, he was able to rise to the top and enter the list of 100 young people. But what he didn't expect was that in Hanzhou he met someone with better luck, that is Fang Zhicheng.
"This investigation report is complete nonsense! What nanny? They are clearly lovers." Having been an official for many years, Zang Yi had long developed a calm temperament, but at this moment he couldn't help but explode.
Compared with Fang Zhicheng's life, Zang Yi is extremely restrained, and there are no women around him. However, Fang Zhicheng has close relationships with many women. If that were all, it would be fine. But what Zang Yi finds hard to accept is that Fang Zhicheng is about to marry Ning Qiangwei, whom he has been pursuing for many years.
Zang Yi questioned some of the conclusions of this report, because no one could believe that the only daughter of the Silan Group would work as a nanny for others while studying in China.
Zang Yi was very unwilling because the Silan Group finally chose the Internet industry and gave up the original industrial manufacturing investment plan because of external factors. It must be the special relationship between Park Hyun-ya and Fang Zhicheng that influenced Park Dae-chung's final decision.
Zang Yi sat at his desk and hesitated for a long time, and finally called Ning Qiangwei. He was not a person who liked to gossip about others behind their backs, but at this moment, he couldn't help it. At the same time, he also had a fluke mentality in his heart, hoping to win back Ning Qiangwei before getting married.
"Brother Zang, is there anything I can help you with?" Ning Qiangwei was very surprised because Zang Yi had not contacted her for a long time.
Zang Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I want to tell you something."
Ning Qiangwei nodded and said, "Go ahead and talk. I'm listening."
Zang Yi said slowly: "Do you know that Fang Zhicheng's lifestyle is terrible?"
Ning Qiangwei was silent for a moment, then said, "Brother Zang, I am very unhappy when you say that."
Zang Yi was a little angry. His fingers couldn't help trembling on the desk, making a clicking sound. He said impatiently, "Qiangwei, I want to wake you up. Don't be deceived by Fang Zhicheng. He has been keeping a lover in Hanzhou. Did you know that?"
Ning Qiangwei frowned and asked doubtfully, "Lover?"
Zang Yi said: "That's right! He has been living with a Korean woman for more than a year."
Ning Qiangwei sighed and said, "Brother Zang, are you investigating him?"
Zang Yi heard disgust in Ning Qiangwei's tone and was slightly startled. He suddenly realized that his behavior was a bit abrupt. After all, Ning Qiangwei was Fang Zhicheng's fiancée. Although he was considering her, when he investigated Fang Zhicheng, he inevitably aroused Ning Qiangwei's vigilance.
