Hearing Hu Hanlin say that the town couldn't come up with any money, Li Xiaoning frowned slightly and said, "I've read the report. There should be more than three million in the town's finances. How come it can't come up with two million."
Hu Hanlin said with a wry smile: "It is true that there are still more than three million. But after taking these two million, the town will not have much money. It is already nervous. This makes it even more nervous. Moreover, the salary arrears of Sands Group is More than 20 million. Two million won't solve any problem at all. The most important thing is to get started and what to do in the future. Besides..."
"What do you mean? You can't solve this problem." Li Xiaoning interrupted Hu Hanlin slightly angrily.
When he saw Li Xiaoning getting angry, Hu Hanlin did not dare to say anything more. However, he still did not express his position, hesitantly, and did not get to the point.
Seeing that Hu Hanlin was still emphasizing the so-called difficulties, Li Xiaoning suddenly darkened his face and said sternly: "I don't want to hear the word 'difficulty'. Please tell me whether this can be dialed in on time."
Hu Hanlin panicked: "Secretary Li, I will make arrangements immediately. The money will be allocated soon."
Looking at Hu Hanlin's back, Li Xiaoning couldn't help but shook his head. It seemed that the officials in Jinsha Town also had a problem with their thinking. Deep in their minds, they did not put the people first and the workers first. This kind of thinking must be reversed. Come on. Li Xiaoning actually knows that. In fact, it is basically the same across the country now. Officials and ordinary people have become two completely different camps and classes. What they mean by serving the people and being public servants of the people are all nonsense. Officials only Thinking about his own political achievements and his own shameless hat, he is too lazy to care about the life and death of the people. He can't control other places. But since he has become the top leader of Jinsha Town, Jinsha Town will not allow such thoughts to exist. All work is carried out. .The interests of the people must come first.
That night, Li Xiaoning went to Sands Group again. As soon as he entered, he was surrounded by workers. They were all extremely excited. "Li... Secretary Li, we didn't expect that you really meant what you said." Let’s do it. People came from the town this afternoon. Each of us has received one month’s salary. Don’t worry. If Sands Group causes you any more trouble, we will no longer be fucking human beings…”
Li Xiaoning looked at the excited and excited faces around him. His eye circles suddenly turned red. Who said these workers were unreasonable and only made trouble? Their requirements were actually very low and easy to meet. But this was the minimum. The demands were criticized as unreasonable by some insensitive people. Those who fought for their basic rights were criticized as unruly people.
Li Xiaoning shouted excitedly: "Brothers, you have suffered. Don't worry. My promise to pay you the wages owed to you before the Lantern Festival will definitely be fulfilled. If it cannot be fulfilled, I will no longer be the secretary."
The workers were so excited that tears filled their eyes. They stepped forward and held Li Xiaoning's hand tightly and said: "Secretary Li, you are a good official. We believe in you and support you."
Behind him, Bai Dengke looked at Li Xiaoning's tall figure and his mood was agitated. It turned out that he always thought that the reason why Li Xiaoning was able to rise all the way at a young age was because he had connections and a backing. Only now did he realize that he was wrong. According to common sense. Li Xiaoning has temporarily resolved the grievances and anger of the workers of Sands Group. He can take it easy and slowly find ways to make up for the arrears of wages. But he still keeps his promise and must pay all the arrears of wages before the Lantern Festival. All reissues have been completed. This is not only heroic, but also full of confidence and noble morality.
The fundamental reason for Li Xiaoning's success is because his heart is really on the people. It's because he has an aura of giving up to others. It's because he has the determination not to be afraid of any hardships. It's because he never lacks passion. .There is no lack of strength. And these conditions are unique to those who are born with superior power. They are also what they lack.
After coming out of the Sands Group, Li Xiaoning did not return to the town government immediately. Instead, he asked Bai Dengke to drive the car to Binhai Avenue. Under the shining of the setting sun, the unfinished buildings looked like reinforced concrete giants that wanted to devour people. He was squatting on the ground like a beast, exuding an indescribable terror and desolation.
Li Xiaoning got out of the car and let the sea breeze blow his face and hair. Bai Dengke did not follow him. He knew that Li Xiaoning needed to stay quietly for a while.
Li Xiaoning really needs to calm down and sort out the situation at hand. He appears very calm on the surface, but in fact he is very anxious in his heart. The various crises in Jinsha Town are on the verge of breaking out. These crises do not exist alone. .But one link after another. If one area is not handled well, the whole situation will be turned on.
Li Xiaoning does not regret coming to Jinsha Town. He is a person who loves challenges at heart. That's why he loves gambling. He knows that now is not the time to be nervous, let alone the time to regret. He wants to get rid of the most difficult two people before the conflict completely breaks out. You have to figure out what's going on and come up with a strategy to deal with it.
One thing is the reorganization of the Sands Group. Through these two days of understanding, he has figured out the reasons for the decline of the Sands Group. Blind expansion, coupled with lagging management, obsolete equipment, and failure to keep up with technological updates, have led to where we are today. It is definitely not an accident. In fact, the simplest and safest way is to let the Sands Group go bankrupt. He is new here. If he is held accountable, he cannot be held accountable. But Li Xiaoning is not willing to let such a huge enterprise group die. He didn’t even want to see employees queuing up to petition every day. That’s why he took a huge risk and bet the resurrection of Sands Group on Emma Company...
This is a risky move. If Emma Company cannot reach an agreement in the end, not only will he not be able to save the Sands Group, but he will also give others a hand. However, in the end, he decided to take a serious gamble. The gamble was good. Not only did the Sands Group If he can be saved and can regain his glory, then he has done a great good deed to Jinsha Town. A great good deed. If he loses the bet...
Li Xiaoning shook his head hard and threw the word "lose" out of his mind.
While Li Xiaoning was working hard for the future of Jinsha Town, Song Pengfei was not idle either. He was also bent on bringing the Sands Group back to life. He, Song Pengfei, was also an ambitious and conscientious person. As the mayor of Jinsha Town, he could not turn a blind eye. Seeing Sands Group die like this, he also placed his bet on Emma Company. But he still wanted to let Emma Company fully acquire it. This was the easiest way to make money the fastest.
After coming out of the office, Song Pengfei told Li Xiaoning that he was going to report to Zhang Yuqiang, the district party secretary. In fact, he went to the hotel where Simon Zhou was staying. He wanted to seize Simon Zhou's straw. In fact, except Simon Zhou. He couldn't think of anyone else who could catch him.
Simon Zhou was refuted by Li Xiaoning in public during the day. He was holding back a lot of anger in his heart. However, he did not really leave angrily. Firstly, the task assigned to him by the board of directors had not been completed. Secondly, he was too It’s clear how seriously Chinese officials attach importance to attracting investment. Every time he loses his temper, the local leader will rush over to apologize to him. Sometimes they will also give him some unexpected benefits.
So when he returned to the suite in the Caspian Hotel where he was staying, he didn't actually pack his luggage and leave. Instead, he poured a glass of red wine and sat on the lounge chair on the balcony to sip it slowly, waiting for Li Xiaoning to bow his head and admit his mistake. He can take the opportunity to humiliate him.
After hearing the knock on the hotel room door, Simon Zhou immediately put down his wine glass, walked quickly to the closet, opened the closet door, threw the clothes and suitcase on the bed, and acted as if he was preparing to pack his luggage and leave. Then he walked to the door and opened the door.
But to Simon Zhou's disappointment, the person standing outside the door was not Li Xiaoning, but Song Pengfei. His face suddenly sank. Without saying a word, he turned around and walked back to the bed to continue packing his luggage angrily.
Song Pengfei hurriedly followed him. With an awkward smile on his face, he said nonchalantly: "Mr. Simon Zhou, what are you doing... Our reception work was not done well. I apologize to you on behalf of Jinsha Town. .Please be sure to stay and give us another chance to correct our mistakes..."
Simon Zhou slammed his suitcase on the bed and said angrily: "I have been to many places across the country for inspections. I have never seen local officials as rude as your Secretary Li. How can anyone be willing to do so with your attitude?" He came here to invest. Does he want to get money and get a card? Does he think I am a fool? Let me tell you, he is wrong. Even if our Emma Company comes to Sands, we are here to make money, not to give. You guys need to give money. It’s you who should give me money.”
Song Pengfei was not a fool. He immediately understood the meaning of Simon Zhou's words. He hurriedly smiled and said: "Li Xiaoning can't make the decision. Although the Sands Group is a town-owned collective enterprise, how to deal with it will ultimately depend on the district or even the town. The city will nod. Let’s talk about it. I will satisfy any of your requests..."
Simon Zhou saw that his goal had been achieved. Then he put down his suitcase. He smiled and said: "Mayor Song, you are a sensible person. Since it is a negotiation between two parties, the conditions can naturally be negotiated. But I don't want to talk today. I want to have a good time first. Let’s visit Binhai. Speaking of which, the scenery here is pretty good..."
"No problem. Where do you want to go? I will be your tour guide." Song Pengfei was immediately elated when he saw that Simon Zhou was willing to stay.
"What's the point of being a tour guide? There's an old saying in China: It's all right if you bring the United States with you." There was a bit of frivolity in Simon Zhou's tone.
"Take the beauty with you." Song Pengfei hesitated for a moment, but then said, "No problem. I will make arrangements for you immediately."
"There is no need to make special arrangements. I think the lady in the daytime is very good. And she understands Italian, which makes it easier for us to communicate." Simon Zhou said his ultimate goal.
