Chapter 23 7. Negotiation
The next morning, Lin Juanjuan and Zheng Weiguo arrived at the Capital Airport early, but what they didn't expect was that there was someone who came earlier than them and was already on the corridor bridge.
Huang Hanchen had never met Xia Wentian. Although Shui Jinghong knew Xia Wentian, he had never dealt with him directly.When Huang Hanchen walked out of the cabin, Ding Nengtong rushed to introduce him, because when Ding Nengtong was talking about Beijing Garden, he went to Hong Kong with Jia Chaoxuan to meet Huang Hanchen.
"Mr. Huang, this is Xia Wentian, the mayor of Dongzhou City, who flew from Dongzhou to Beijing to meet you!"
Xia Wentian was not lacking in refined demeanor, he stepped forward politely and said, "Mr. Huang, I know your schedule for coming to Beijing is very tight. I will only delay you for half an hour. I have arranged a VIP room at the airport."
Shui Jinghong stopped him and said, "Mayor Xia, didn't we communicate on the phone yesterday? Mr. Huang has an important event at noon."
At this time, Zhu Mingli, the general manager of Beijing Garden, came to welcome him: "Mr. Huang, we obviously made an appointment with Mayor Xia at ten o'clock this morning, and we broke the contract first, so we postponed it to the evening."
"Mingli," Shui Jinghong asked with a straight face, "Is there any difference between morning and evening?"
Huang Hanchen waved his hand and said, "Since Mayor Xia wants to see the old man in his busy schedule, please do so!"
Huang Hanchen agreed immediately, because he didn't want to see Shui Jinghong and Zhu Mingli arguing. One was the general manager of the Yellow River Group, and the other had been his secretary for many years. The palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh. Don't let outsiders see the joke.
Originally, Huang Hanchen came to Beijing this time to see the progress of the investment projects in Beijing. Seeing that Xia Wentian was originally in the plan, since he received the hatch of the plane, it can be seen that his sincerity is quite deep.
Huang Hanchen's mother studied in the Religion Department of Qingjiang University in her early years. Although the old mother is ninety-six or seventeen years old, she is still in good health. She never forgets the years of studying in Qingjiang. After doing a detailed understanding of Xia Wentian's life experience, before Xia Wentian entered Beijing this time, Ding Neng came up with a golden idea, asking Xia Wentian to prepare a special gift for Huang Hanchen.
After everyone took their seats in the VIP room, Huang Hanchen first gave Xia Wentian a blow: "Mayor Xia, since we met, I have to sue you first!"
Xia Wentian's heart tightened, he didn't expect that Huang Hanchen would sue him.
"Mr. Huang, you can talk about it, as long as it's about Dongzhou, everything is negotiable." Xia Wentian said modestly.
"Mayor Xia, I know that your purpose of coming to Beijing to see me this time is to hope that the Hong Kong Yellow River Group will invest in Dongzhou's most economically difficult time. With the Hong Kong Yellow River Group's influence in Southeast Asia and even the world, as long as we invest , it will definitely have a demonstration effect, so that Dongzhou's economy can borrow a boat to go to sea, but I personally didn't want to invest in Dongzhou at first, not because of the impact of the "Xiao Jia case", the "Xiao Jia" Although he is a corrupt official, it has not affected the investment environment in Dongzhou. Now that the corrupt official has fallen, the investment environment has deteriorated, which I can't understand." Huang Hanchen embarrassed Xia Wentian when he opened his mouth.
Xia Wentian couldn't understand what he heard: "Mr. Huang, what's wrong with Dongzhou's investment environment?"
"Our Hong Kong Yellow River Group has not invested much in Dongzhou. One is the five-star hotel Beidu Hotel jointly developed with the original Beidu Group. This is also the project we have invested the most in Dongzhou, and the investment in Huangxian The molybdenum mine, now we have sold the molybdenum mine, Mayor Xia, do you know why we sold it?"
"Why?" Xia Wentian asked puzzled.
"Because the Huangxian County Party Committee and the county government forced us to sell to Roche, I heard that the company's backstage is very strong!" Huang Hanchen's female assistant interjected.
"Mayor Xia, as the saying goes, a strong dragon can't beat a local snake, so we had no choice but to sell the molybdenum mine. Those who didn't know the situation thought that the Hong Kong Yellow River Group withdrew its capital because it was worried about being implicated in the 'Xiao Jia case', so it is I have always been worried about not continuing to invest in Dongzhou!"
After hearing this, Xia Wentian had an ominous feeling in his heart. It seems that there is a problem in Huang County. It is not just a problem of small molybdenum mines blooming everywhere and chaotic management. It can squeeze the Hong Kong Yellow River Group in the opposite direction. I am afraid that there is power to hinder it. Like other mining areas in the country, Huangxian has collusion between government and business?This question locked Xia Wentian's brows tightly, but right now is not the time to think about it.
Xia Wentian stretched his brows and smiled and said: "Mr. Huang, I'm really sorry. I haven't been in office for a long time, and the situation is not clear yet. I will deal with this matter seriously. Director Ding, who is the boss of the Roche Group? Why is there so much energy?" ?”
After Ding Nengtong heard this, he felt guilty for a while. When he went to Huang County a few days ago, Xiaomei said that it was Shui Jinghong who offered to transfer the molybdenum mine, and found Zhang Tienan. The molybdenum mine, now it seems that there is a lot behind the Roche molybdenum mine!
When Lin Dake was the county magistrate, Luo Xiaomei was the director of the Beijing Office of Huangxian County. In order to let the Hong Kong Yellow River Group invest in Huangxian County, Luo Xiaomei tried her best to persuade herself and Jia Chaoxuan to persuade Shui Jinghong to visit Huangxian County. During that inspection, Ding Nengtong fell in love with Luo Xiaomei's pomegranate skirt. Unexpectedly, the molybdenum mine developed by Luo Xiaomei at the beginning became her own now, and there must be a lot of mystery in it.Thinking of the mine piracy disaster he encountered in Huang County a few days ago, Ding Nengtong felt even more worried for this beloved woman.
"Mayor Xia, my surname seems to be Luo." Ding Nengtong replied strangely.
After hearing this, Xia Wentian's nose was almost crooked, thinking, the boss of the Luo Group is of course surnamed Luo, but the family scandal must not be publicized, Xia Wentian didn't want to dwell on this issue too much.
Shui Jinghong snorted coldly at the side, Shui Jinghong knew the relationship between Ding Nengtong and Luo Xiaomei best, so he couldn't do it in front of Huang Hanchen.
Huang Hanchen didn't want to make things stand still, but he just wanted to give Xia Wentian a warning so that he could have more room for maneuver. In fact, although the molybdenum mine was sold to Luo Xiaomei, there was no loss.
"Mayor Xia, I have already made it clear about the purpose of your trip. My mother studied at Qingjiang University in the early years, and it is my mother's long-cherished wish to benefit Dongzhou. I am also very interested in the project of the International Convention and Exhibition Center, but we I am more optimistic about the leadership effect of the country's top five-star hotel. This is not only a profitable project, but also beneficial to the stock of Huanghe Industrial. Mayor Xia, can you pinch the two projects together? The exhibition and hotel industries are originally mutually reinforcing."
This is what Xia Wentian did not expect, because the purpose of coming to Beijing this time is to persuade Huang Hanchen to give up the country's highest five-star hotel and only build an international convention and exhibition center. However, there are too many people relocated and insufficient compensation will lead to group visits. If thousands of households make a scene, not only the province will be held accountable, but the central government will also be alarmed.
"Mr. Huang, as the mayor of Dongzhou City, I welcome the Hong Kong Yellow River Group to Dongzhou to develop its grand plans, but the compensation for the people must be in place, because the ultimate goal of Dongzhou's economic development is to benefit the people. I was wronged on the issue of compensation for relocation." Xia Wentian put the ugly words up front.
"Mayor Xia, I don't like China's Fan Li, but I prefer America's Benjamin Franklin. As the most important strategist and businessman in China's Spring and Autumn Period, Fan Li constantly changed himself to accommodate the society. He first escaped from politics and accumulated After making a lot of money, he gave it to his neighbors to alleviate the jealousy he might incur, but Franklin used his intelligence, ability and dedication to build a future society. He built a library, wrote proverbs for young people, and participated in the United States Constitution. Fan Li may have completed the pursuit of his own meaning through continuous self-retirement, but Franklin has pushed people to have more vision, ability, and motivation, and he has also obtained his own meaning in participating in creating a better society."
"Mr. Huang, I understand what you mean, and I admire you for having Franklin's heart! I have brought you a special gift this time, and Mr. Huang will definitely like it."
At this time, Long Xiaobo brought up an exquisite file folder. Xia Wentian took the file folder and handed it to Huang Hanchen himself. Huang Hanchen opened it and his eyes turned red. It turned out that this was a photocopy of Mr. Huang's mother's file when she was studying at Qingjiang University in her early years. Documents, including the files of the old man studying in the Department of Religion, high school recommendation letters, enrollment registration forms, transcripts, etc., are mostly written by her.
This special gift is too precious to Huang Hanchen, he said excitedly: "Thank you! Thank you!"
Xia Wentian experienced Ding Nengtong's treachery for the first time. If Shui Jinghong led him by the nose, things would not go so smoothly.
The Mercedes-Benz was speeding on the Capital Airport Expressway, Xia Wentian was in a very good mood, Ding Nengtong felt that the time had come to persuade Mayor Xia to go to Canada for inspection, so he asked while driving: "Mayor Xia, when will the Dongzhou subway project be approved? "
"Xiao Honglin had a good idea when he was in office. Later, when he became corrupt, the matter ran aground. The subway is an inevitable means of solving traffic problems in megacities around the world. The development of central cities has entered the era of subway economy. Sooner or later, the subway in Dongzhou will be launched. " Xia Wentian said firmly.
"Mayor Xia, Brown Corporation of Canada has always been interested in participating in the construction of the Dongzhou subway. Their general manager in China is Xin Zeyin, the younger brother of Xin Zejin, the director of the Provincial Office in Beijing. I have always wanted to invite you to visit Brown Corporation of Canada. , I wonder if you are interested?" Ding Nengtong asked cautiously.
"Yes, what do you mean?" Xia Wentian asked back.
"Brown Corporation of Canada ranks among the top three subway companies in the world. Other cities can't wait for such a powerful company. We should not ignore it. Besides, they have conducted a feasibility study on the construction of the subway in Dongzhou. We will report to The feasibility study report of the National Development and Reform Commission was provided by Brown Company."
"Nengtong, I heard that your wife and children are in Canada, do you miss your wife?" Xia Wentian told the truth, Ding Nengtong blushed.
"Mayor Xia, I'm out of a public heart, and I don't have any private thoughts."
Xia Wentian laughed out loud after hearing this.
The next day, after Ding Nengtong accompanied Xia Wentian to several ministries and commissions, he went to the Central Party School in the afternoon to visit Liu Guangda, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee.In the evening, Xia Wentian flew back to Dongzhou.
Ding Nengtong sent Xia Wentian out of the departure hall of the Capital Airport, thinking of Zheng Weiguo. He learned from Zhu Mingli that Lin Juanjuan and Zheng Weiguo had been with Huang Hanchen for the past two days.
Ding Nengtong felt that since he knew that Zheng Weiguo had arrived in Beijing, as a senior brother, he should take the initiative to invite the junior brother to have a meal and catch up on the past. After all, his situation is better than Zheng Weiguo. With Zheng Weiguo's IQ, he would definitely think that he already knew that he had arrived in Beijing. .The reason why you don't connect with yourself must be thinking about yourself.
Thinking of this, Ding Nengtong dialed Zheng Weiguo's mobile phone. Zheng Weiguo was a little surprised when he received Ding Nengtong's call, because since he was double-opened, the people who used to call and hug him in the past disappeared without a trace. I am hired as the general manager, I am afraid that I still worry about my livelihood.Ding Nengtong is really lucky to have today's ending. He dared to contact him proactively, which showed that Ding Nengtong was a man of love, righteousness and courage, and that everything was not centered on the black hat. A warm current surged in Zheng Weiguo's heart, and he readily agreed.
Zheng Weiguo hadn't been to Beijing Garden for a long time. When he stepped into Beijing Garden, he had mixed feelings.Ding Nengtong booked a small private room at the Lumingchun Restaurant, ordered four light side dishes, a bottle of Beijing Erguotou, the two of them drank a glass of wine, and Zheng Weiguo burst into tears.
"Brother Tong, life is really unpredictable. I have always been full of ambitions in politics, but I never thought that today I will be living under the fence!"
"Wei Guo, think about everything, maybe you can become a successful entrepreneur after this catastrophe, and it may not be a bad thing! Life is full of misfortunes and blessings." Ding Nengtong comforted.
"Brother Tong, don't you have any hatred for Hong Wenshan in your heart? Mayor Xiao said he was the one who killed him!" Zheng Weiguo said through gritted teeth.
"Weiguo, you can't say that. The blisters on your feet are all gone by yourself. Secretary Hong handles the case in accordance with party discipline and state laws. How can he be killed by others?" Ding Nengtong retorted.
"Brother Tong, you have changed, and I almost don't know you anymore. No wonder, although your title of deputy secretary-general of the municipal government has been removed, you are still the director of the Beijing Office after all. I heard that Hong Wenshan has always advocated taking Excuse me, it was Mayor Xia Libao, you just sat in this position again, a party stick like Hong Wenshan should let him be ruined!" Zheng Weiguo said viciously.
"Wei Guo, don't do stupid things, I think your emotions are not right!" Ding Nengtong reminded with an ominous premonition.
"Brother Tong, don't worry, I won't do stupid things, even if I do something, I won't hurt you!" Zheng Weiguo said with a sneer.
"Wei Guo, who else knows you better than me, you don't seem to have any good ideas in your heart. I heard that Lin Juanjuan is very interesting to you, you are old and young, it's time to start a family!"
"Brother Tong, do you think Lin Juanjuan and I are suitable?"
"It's up to you to decide whether it's suitable or not. Anyway, I hope you can start a family soon. Wei Guo, I've been thinking about a question in my heart. I want to ask you, how much of Lin Juanjuan's share will be in the joint development of Yaowangmiao Community by Lin Group and Hong Kong Yellow River Group?" Shares?"
"Brother Tong, why are you asking this?"
"I doubt Lin Juanjuan's strength, what will she use to form a joint venture with Huang Hanchen?"
"Brother Tong, we must borrow part of the money."
"I still have one question that I don't understand. The Hong Kong Yellow River Group is so powerful that it can completely develop the Yaowangmiao community independently. Why should it have a joint venture with you?"
"Brother Tong, Huang Hanchen is a businessman. He also hopes to enjoy the profits alone, but Qianglong can't beat the local snakes. He summed up a piece of investment experience in the mainland from the case of the molybdenum mine in Huangxian County being bought by the local snakes. Qianglong cooperates with the local snakes to share benefits. It is the safest."
"Aren't they afraid that your lack of funds will slow down the project?"
"Brother Tong, who said we don't have enough funds? Not only do we have sufficient funds, but we are also the contributors to Dongzhou's investment attraction. Don't forget that there is no Beidu Hotel project to lead the Hong Kong Yellow River Group. How can people pay attention to Dongzhou's mess?"
"You are wrong, Wei Guo. Huang Hanchen is a famous entrepreneur in Hong Kong. He has always had a strategic vision. He regards Dongzhou as a temporarily low stock in China's big stock market, taking advantage of the bullishness of China's economy. of."
"Brother Tong, no matter what you say, we are all brothers. I hope you will do well in politics. It would be great if you become the mayor of Dongzhou City. At that time, brother, I will follow my brother to gain glory. I can only rely on earning money for the rest of my life. Money realizes its own value, so don't stretch out your hands when you use it, my brother is your finance minister!"
Zheng Weiguo's tone was very emotional, and Ding Nengtong laughed loudly: "Brother, you underestimate my brother too much. You know that I never take money too seriously, otherwise, I would not be able to pass the 'Xiao Jia case'. Wei Guo, among your peers, you have gone through a storm, and you should seriously reflect on what is a meaningful life. Without a correct outlook on life and values, what is the point of spending too much money? I advise you to ask Huang Hanchen You have learned a lot, Mr. He has both the compassion of Buddhism and the enthusiasm of Confucianism to help the world, brothers, the wealth in the heart is the real wealth!"
After hearing Ding Nengtong's words, Zheng Weiguo burst out laughing, and teased, "Brother Tong, you can still get promoted!"
