The two men unexpectedly addressed each other as "Premier Wen" and "Secretary Xu", indicating that from that moment on, their status and cognition of each other had changed. They were no longer "Uncle Xu" and "Xiao Liang", no longer elder and junior, but equals in communication and cooperation with mutual respect.
In fact, it is only because of the sluggish real estate market in recent years that the development of Qingzhou East District has been short of funds. If it were in the future, every old city renovation project would be a feast for the eyes. Just like flies smelling shit, so many people would try their best to get a share of the pie. How could there be such a pitiful thing as a city official begging for alms in person
According to Wen Liangshi's understanding, if he had the will, and took over the renovation rights of Dongcheng District at this time, he would have a very considerable return within five years. However, he had never had any interest in the construction industry, or he was unwilling to waste his youth in this industry full of unspoken rules. Moreover, his funds were limited, and he had no extra money to invest in this bottomless pit.
"If I remember correctly, wasn't the Dongcheng District under the charge of Minghua Group? How come the richest man in Jiangdong, who is so rich, is also short of money?" (For details about the reconstruction of Minghua District, please see Chapter 143 of Volume 3)
Xu Fuyan could hear the teasing in Wen Liang's words, but he knew that he and Gu Shi had a deep hatred, so he didn't mind this little insolence. He shook his head and said, "The urban reconstruction is a super large project. No company can take it all in one go. In addition to Minghua, there are other companies doing it. But as I said, the project is too big and there is still a gap. If you are interested, you might as well get involved. After all, it is a good thing that benefits the country and the people!"
Wen Liang couldn't refuse at this point, but Yishan Pure Water was about to go online, and he didn't have the energy to open up another front, especially in the construction industry, which had to deal with too many government departments. Just dealing with people was boring. He pondered for a while and said, "Well, I don't have any extra liquidity now. Even if I want to contribute to the construction of Qingzhou, I can't do anything. But I have a friend who runs a construction company. He is professional and strong. Why don't I introduce him to Qingzhou to invest? What do you think?"
Xu Fuyan wanted money, so it didn't matter whose money it was. He asked, "Which company?"
"Golden Dragon Construction, they built the Hua Ting Hotel on the mountain. It was completed within a year, with guaranteed quality and quantity, creating a miracle in the industry. The boss Qu Rong is the son of Guanshan Qu Donghai, so Secretary Xu might know him."
"Qu Donghai," Xu Fuyan was relieved when he heard that it was this man's son, and said, "Okay, take him to the government to meet Mayor Wenxue tomorrow, and I'll take care of the rest."
After all, urban reconstruction is led by the government. Xu Fuyan asked Wen Liang to take Qu Rong to see Feng Wenxue. First, he wanted to delegate power and not interfere in things that he should not interfere in. Second, he wanted to be confident and know that the things he was supposed to be in charge of were the things he should be in charge of. This was the best way to employ people.
After a series of exchanges of interests, Wen Liang made an "OK" gesture to Xu Yao who had been peeking at the negotiation situation. Xu Yao jumped up with a wow, threw the Winnie the Pooh in her hand away, and hugged Ning Xiaoning and shouted, "Long live Secretary Xu, long live, long live!" Xu Fuyan was left in tears and laughter.
Wen Liang blinked his eyes, as if to say don't thank the wrong person, the real hero is here. Xu Yao obviously understood what he meant, and while Xu Fuyan went to the bathroom, she leaned close to Wen Liang's ear and said softly, "Good man, I will agree to any reward you want."
Wen Liang's heart skipped a beat, and then he looked at Xu Yao again. She was so beautiful and charming, with jade-like skin and icy bones, that he couldn't help but whispered in a low voice, "Then give me a kiss..."
Xu Yao's neck instantly turned pink, but her eyes became more charming. She nodded shyly. If Wen Liang hadn't been concerned about Ning Xiaoning being by her side, he might have really kissed her.
After staying for a while, Xu Fuyan still had some official business to attend to, Ning Xiaoning stayed to sleep with Xu Yao, and Wen Liang drove home alone. When he left Chunxi Road, a cold smile flashed in his eyes. Although Xu Fuyan said it lightly, it could not cover up the fact that Minghua's capital chain had problems, otherwise it would not be unable to handle a mere Dongcheng District renovation project. The excuse that the project is too big is just an excuse, the bigger the project, the greater the foreseeable return. With Gu Shitong's appetite, he would only complain about not having enough food, why would he be afraid of having more
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Minghua was cheated of a lot of money by Wen Liang. Century Park cost more than 100 million, tens of millions more, and other miscellaneous blackmail, compensation and appeasement expenses, plus the hidden losses that followed, I'm afraid it will not be less than 300 million. The most important thing is that these expenses are unnecessary extra expenses, which are off-budget, completely disrupting Minghua's strategic deployment and future planning, and delaying the development of the past two years and the next five years.
Three hundred million, even Minghua would feel painful when hearing this number. Wen Liang adopted this tactic of cutting a carrot, little by little, point by point, inch by inch, and kept taking flesh from Minghua.
At this moment, I finally saw the skeleton in the flesh!
Soft and fragile, perhaps not yet to the point of being vulnerable to a single blow, but that day won't be too far away!
That night, Wen Liang hosted Xi Jingwei, who had rushed back from Xichuan, at Yuxiang Garden. As soon as the two met, Wen Liang held Xi Jingwei's hand tightly and said emotionally, "Jingwei, you've worked hard on this trip."
"It's not hard. President Wen, you are the one who has planned and arranged everything. I'm just running errands. How hard is that?" Xi Jingwei was still the same. His simple and plain clothes made it hard to tell that this was the man who had created a new era in the domestic communications equipment industry by signing an agreement with the Xichuan Post and Telecommunications Bureau.
Wen Liang laughed and said, "Jingwei, your tongue has become sharper after your trip to Xichuan. You must have eaten a lot of spicy hot pot, right?"
After saying that, I remembered that there is an allusion to Malatang, but fortunately people of this era don’t know it, otherwise, looking at Xi Jingwei’s face, let alone thirteen times, even once would not be possible.
The two men sat opposite each other while chatting and laughing. Xi Jingwei reported on the trip to Xichuan and said, "... Several major leaders of the provincial bureau still had concerns. I tried many methods but couldn't completely dispel their doubts. In the end, it was Director Wan's speech at the equipment exhibition held in Xichuan Province that made them firm up their determination and signed an agreement with the company..."
It was no coincidence that Wan Siwei chose this time to go to Xichuan. On the surface, he was going to negotiate with the municipal bureaus in Xichuan to sell equipment for the equipment exhibition, but in fact, it was to ensure that the strategic intention of Chuangtu could be implemented and realized. As expected, although the Xichuan Provincial Bureau was tempted by the joint venture to establish a subsidiary, it had many concerns. In line with the habit of asking for instructions whenever there was something, it reported the information to Wan Siwei, who happened to be in Xichuan? After reviewing it, Wan Siwei, with his shrewdness, certainly would not give any half-hearted words, but just asked the provincial bureau to study and learn the spirit of Vice Premier Chen Longqi's speech at the International Communications Equipment Exhibition last year, and pointed out that under the current situation, the whole country is talking about reform and opening up. Should the postal and telecommunications departments also think about how to change and how to let go? The previous thinking of closing the door and being the boss is not acceptable. Closing the door will fall behind, and falling behind will be eliminated. These words made the Provincial Post and Telecommunications Bureau suddenly enlightened. Chuangtu Technology was an enterprise that Chen Longqi had specifically praised and had been registered with the leaders. The switches they had had also been certified by a group of experts. The technology was in the leading position in China, but the procurement cost was much lower than those of foreign brands. Using the saved cost to provide some benefits to employees was not corruption or bribery, and it was completely within the scope permitted by the law. So everyone got what they needed and everyone was happy!
Ever since he first met Wan Siwei in the capital, Wen Liang had been deliberately interacting with him, just for the purpose of being able to help at the critical moment on this day. He did not let Wan Siwei down, and Wan Siwei did not let him down!
Now that the joint venture has been established, the next thing to do is a matter of course. We will install equipment, seize the market, firmly grasp this excellent opportunity, and leave all competitors behind. No, leave them far behind!
Wen Liang said, "After you go back, tell Yin Yong that the mission of the joint venture is to open up relationships and consolidate the market, not to transfer technology. There is no need to transfer products, especially those with technological content, to subsidiaries. To put it bluntly, this subsidiary is just our sales agent, and it can obtain bank loans through such companies and the local resources of the joint venture partner to alleviate possible financial pressure in the future. This is the top priority! You should also pay attention to one point. In the process of the joint venture with the Xichuan Provincial Post and Telecommunications Bureau, all problems, details and solutions that arise, without a single detail, should be recorded, and then after summarizing and refining, a "Joint Venture Work Guide" should be written. In the future, this guide will be used as a blueprint to send people to other provinces and cities to discuss the establishment of joint ventures. We will strive to open the joint venture model to most of the postal and telecommunications departments across the country within one to two years. At that time, we will be truly invincible!"
Xi Jingwei kept this conversation in mind, and after dinner he left Qingzhou overnight and rushed back to Lingyang. However, Wen Liang received a call from Zuo Yuxi, asking him to go to Diyuan Garden to discuss something related to Ye Yuting.
Wen Liang drove over quickly. He thought something serious had happened and asked anxiously, "What happened to Yuting?"
Zuo Yuxi smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, but I don't have time recently. Can you help me deal with it?"
Wen Liang was relieved and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Did you know that Yuting is a member of the Qingzhou Photographers Association?"
Wen Liang shook his head and said, "I know she likes photography very much. Doesn't she often go out to collect materials during holidays? But I always thought she was an amateur. I didn't expect that she is a member of the Photography Association."
"That's right, Guanshan is about to host the 17th Jiangdong Province Photography Art Exhibition... (To be continued)
