"The city has different opinions on the financing and construction of the bridge. Some comrades advocated that if there is financing and construction for such an important project, who will be responsible for problems during the construction? Is it an individual responsibility or a collective responsibility? There were some arguments at the meeting. In the end
The conclusion is that if the funds of the ministry cannot support the project, then the progress can only be postponed.”
Meng Tingzhi considered her words and spoke very slowly, as if she was worried that Fang Zhe would not understand her meaning.
Fang Zhe didn't express his position. He nodded to show that he understood. Not speaking also meant his attitude.
"I have put in a lot of effort into this project and am really reluctant to give up. However, the two ministries and commissions have repeatedly insisted that Jiangcheng City must raise part of its own funds, and it must not be less than 40%. I have gone to the bank to understand the situation. Over there
The reason given is also very simple, it directly points out that Jiangcheng Automobile Factory owes the bank more than one billion yuan in loans and has not repaid it, and the bank is powerless."
Now it becomes clearer. Isn’t that what I mean if I still want to build a bridge when I have no money? It’s so clear.
Fang Zhe could understand Meng Tingzhi's mood, but he spent a lot of energy, and ended up stuck at the source. Whether he was willing to give in or not, that was Meng Tingzhi's personal inner drama. Looking at the problem from Fang Zhe's point of view, there was at least some reward, right? Otherwise
It's too ugly.
Fang Zhe really couldn't answer these words, so he could only remain silent, wanting to see what Meng Tingzhi meant.
Surprisingly, Meng Tingzhi didn't continue talking. Instead, she glanced at Yun Jue. This woman was indeed a mole. Fang Zhe firmly believed that Yun Jue must have given Meng Tingzhi the next idea. The reason for this was very simple.
.The relationship between the two is a bit awkward. Yun Jue hopes to show Fang Zhe's role and reduce the pressure caused by the relationship between the two.
This pressure was felt by Yun Jue, but Fang Zhe was not that strong. After all, you are a scumbag, you can leave.
Of course, if it is Yun Jue's intention, Fang Zhe probably won't veto it. After all, he still needs face. Money is just a number to Fang Zhe now. If Yun Jue insists, he can just give it to Meng Tingzhi for free.
Ah, just think of it as a gift.
No matter what he was thinking, Fang Zhe didn't show anything on his face. Instead, he smiled and encouraged Yun Jue to speak.
"A certain leader in Jiangcheng City is about to expire. His idea is to make a smooth transition, so this happened." Yun Jue explained the reason first, and Fang Zhe waved his hand with a smile: "Don't tell me this.
, just say what you think directly."
"My idea is very simple. Jiangcheng City will issue local bonds and have Pinnacle Fund underwrite them. There is no precedent for this before, but the leader at fgw said that we can boldly try it. It is said to be underwriting, but in fact it is underwriting.
After all, Jiangcheng City’s local bonds are not of much interest to investors in Hong Kong City.”
Fang Zhe did not expect such a statement. He pondered for a moment and said: "From a profit perspective, how much can be achieved?"
"The most important thing now is the bond method, and the amount will be relatively large, estimated to be at least 250 million US dollars." Yun Jue looked embarrassed. This amount of money is not a small amount. She wanted to help her mother, but it took two people.
If the love between her and her is exhausted, it won't be worth it anymore. This is her biggest worry.
"Can't I use soft sister coins to buy it?" Fang Zhe asked back. This time it was Yun Jue's turn to be surprised: "Yes, yes, isn't this for sale in Hong Kong City?"
"I think your worries are unnecessary. Government-funded bonds now seem to be the safest investments. Especially in Hong Kong City, after a financial crisis, a lot of funds have nowhere to go. Well, you start doing it first
, if it doesn’t work, let Peak Fund underwrite it.” Fang Zhe didn’t say this nonsense, he really meant it. The difficulty is not sales, but the introduction of policies.
Meng Tingzhi was greatly surprised. She did not expect Fang Zhe to agree so simply. She did not think that Fang Zhe was telling the truth, but felt that Fang Zhe's feelings for her daughter were really heavy.
"If the bonds can be exchanged for foreign exchange, this matter will be easier to accomplish, and the interest rate of the bonds can be increased." Meng Tingzhi said this is well-founded. Before joining the WTO, the domestic shortage of foreign exchange will not change.
"Wait a minute, there won't be any changes at the central bank, right?" Fang Zhe reminded.
Meng Tingzhi said happily: "Local bond policies can be more flexible."
Fang Zhi feels that Meng Tingzhi is too optimistic. The lesson of the Asian financial crisis will not be in vain in China. It can be said that this is almost a turning point event. After experiencing this incident, domestic financial policies will be relatively stable. Also because of the mainland financial market
This stability has aroused the vigilance of some capitalists on Wall Street in the United States and laid the foundation for the United States to intensify its efforts to curb dialogue in the future.
Fang Zhe smiled and thought that local bonds would be flexible after twenty years. But he asked with a smile: "Where is the mortgage?"
"What kind of mortgage do you want? The local finance is not enough?" Meng Tingzhi was in a good mood and her tone became very relaxed.
"I think we can be more flexible. For example, land can also be used as mortgage." Fang Zhe secretly raised the alarm. He originally didn't want to do real estate. Now that he has the opportunity to get land at a good price, why not make it right? The worst is not to develop it in the future.
Sell directly.
"You're not in the real estate industry, so what do you need the land for?" Meng Tingzhi interrupted with a smile. Fang Zhe felt a little uncomfortable, so after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. The housing prices in Jiangcheng will only happen in more than ten years.
Prices have skyrocketed in first- and second-tier cities.
"So the bond issue has been settled?" Yun Jue quickly settled the matter. Fang Zhe had no objection and just reminded: "I definitely can't help with policy issues."
After hearing this, Meng Tingzhi laughed and said: "You have to take part in this matter, so I don't want to be an official anymore. It's better to go home and take care of my grandson."
This remark had some other meaning. Fang Zhe and Yun Jue exchanged glances and agreed not to answer the remark.
"I'm going out to do some errands right now. You've worked hard, Xiao Fang. Take the time to take a rest. Doesn't Yun Jue have something else to say?"
Meng Tingzhi was in a hurry to go out for business, and Fang Zhe got up to see her off. Meng Tingzhi walked to the door and said with a smile: "You don't have to go to a hotel. When you come to the imperial capital in the future, you can stay directly in the office."
Fang Zhe explained with a smile: "I have a house in Didu." Meng Tingzhi felt a little depressed, and said with a smile: "That's okay, I'm leaving, you guys should do whatever you want, and have dinner together in the evening. Over at the office
, I will arrange a car to take you there."
When the matter was over, Meng Tingzhi left in a hurry. Fang Zhe was a little surprised why he didn't call in advance. Yun Jue seemed to know what he was thinking, and explained with a smile: "We made an appointment over there, and we originally planned to fight for it one last time.
All funded.”
Fang Zhe hummed without saying anything, turned around and looked at the luggage he had brought: "Isn't it convenient to live here?"
Yun Jue smiled and said, "You'd better stay here first. I have something else to tell you."
Fang Zhe went back and sat down with peace of mind. Yun Jue sat next to him, folding his arms and whispering: "I plan to go down and take a look at the Hope Primary School in person, and then decide where to build the school. This matter is yours
You brought it up, I think you must have some ideas, and I want to hear your point of view."
"There haven't been many things going on recently. Even if there are things, they won't get busy until after the new year. Now it's all preliminary preparations. How about this, I'll spend ten days with you to go to the southwest and take a look at the local area.
If the situation arises, just settle the matter directly and pay the money if necessary. However, my attitude is very clear, that is, quality issues must be guaranteed."
Yun Jue couldn't help but look at Fang Zhe strangely and said, "How much do you distrust the local government?"
Fang Zhe sighed: "The places we have chosen must be in very poor condition. If you are poor, anything will happen. I can't bet on the moral standards of some individuals. I can only rely on my own persistence. I tell you this
Tell me, is there a situation where teachers' wages are not paid in local areas? Suppose there is, some people use part of the money for building buildings to repay wages? For the sake of profit, the people who contract the project do some tricks on the quality.
Woolen cloth?"
Yun Jue casually said: "Where is the local quality supervision department?" Fang Zhe smiled and said nothing, just looked at her calmly.
"We definitely don't have time to stare at each other, what do you think we should do?" Yun Jue asked back.
"It's very simple. We will donate the first batch first. When it is completed, we will be notified to go down and take a look at the teaching building, and we will take people to do quality inspection ourselves. All these must be explained clearly beforehand and written down in black and white in the agreement.
Otherwise, it is better not to donate this building." Fang Zhe's attitude was very determined, and now it was Yun Jue's turn to smile bitterly.
"You really are, forget it, just do what you want. When I came back this time, I contacted Committee T, hoping to get help from them. They were very enthusiastic and learned that we donate every year, and even more
It means that I am very happy to see such an entrepreneur. The person in charge of the Hope Project over there wants to meet you. If you have no objection, ask her to come here and sit down."
Unexpectedly, there was such a reason. Fang Zhe nodded: "Tomorrow, there is also a restaurant here. Let's have dinner together at noon tomorrow. After all, your mother has ordered dinner."
Meng Tingzhi came back before dark, looking tired but very excited. When she found Fang Zhe and Yun Jue, Meng Tingzhi said impatiently: "We have talked with the leaders of the two departments and they support my idea. I will return tomorrow."
We need to go to the relevant departments to continue the negotiations. It will take some time to finalize the matter, and we will try to reach an agreement before the end of the year."
Fang Zhe was a little surprised that the negotiation could actually be concluded. It seems that domestic pragmatism is not only reflected in diplomacy. It is also pragmatic in economic construction. But speaking of it, even if this matter cannot be passed now, as the economy
To meet the needs of development, the country will still introduce relevant economic policies. Otherwise, how can so many trust funds survive?
Speaking of local debt, it is another bad debt. This phenomenon has not happened yet, but it will increase in the future, especially in a certain province in the southwest. A county dares to owe tens of billions. I really don’t know where the local person in charge can be so confident.
Dry.
Jiangcheng's economic development is still good. Fang Zhe is impressed by this, but what impresses the most is the housing price. In just one or two years, the average price of such a fourth- and fifth-tier city is more than 10,000. It's simply
It's really miserable for those born in the 1970s. Most people have experienced a long period of little change in the country, and then experienced two decades of earth-shaking changes in the country.
Let's put it this way, after most people born in the 1970s realized that this country had changed, they didn't even recognize it. Even though they are in it, ordinary people are swept away by the tide of the times. Those who are lucky will be able to benefit from the times.
I am just a middle-class person with bad luck. I am almost 50 years old and still working as a migrant worker. Because of the problem of knowledge structure, most of the migrant workers are at the bottom level.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Meng Tingzhi's attitude towards Fang Zhe changed fundamentally, and she looked at people with kindness in her eyes.
Fang Zhe was not so used to this. After all, everything that happened back then was still vivid in his mind. It was very realistic.
But this is life. When two people from different walks of life come together, even if it is true love, life is not just about love, right?
Yun Jue was very happy about her mother's transformation, but she couldn't understand the unique feeling in Fang Zhe's heart.
Early the next morning, Yun Jue went out. It was already half past nine when Fang Zhe woke up. He ate something casually and rubbed his waist from time to time on the way back. Being young and in good health is one thing, but doing physical work is another.
Things, especially if the other person is in a state of excitement and refuses to sleep very late, that is another matter.
Adults, you have to learn to choose. Just when Fang Zhe was thinking this, not long after returning to the room, Yun Jue came in with a middle-aged woman. Fang Zhe, who was reading, quickly put down his book and stood up to say hello.
After the introduction, I learned that the lesbian’s surname was Liu, and Fang Zhe called her Sister Liu. Project Hope is a long-term project initiated by the Youth League Committee 1 and supported by the country and all walks of life. It is intended to help children in areas with educational difficulties.
Solve the difficult problem of education.
In fact, this project has not attracted much attention from the society. It may be a publicity issue or other issues. Anyway, in Fang Zhe's memory, in his previous life, Fang Zhe remembered A Le, who silently donated the teaching building.
Hong Kong Star. This was revealed in the Internet era. Let’s put it this way, for a long time, the public had little interest in official media reports.
I remember when I read the news and newspapers, I was more willing to read reports that reflected social issues. Especially the reports in some newspapers in the south. For a long time, the explosive news seen in the newspapers were all negative domestic news. As time went by,
I always feel that this country takes jujube pills.
After some exchanges, Sister Liu expressed her gratitude to Fang Zhe for his contribution to the Hope Project. The Youth League 1 Committee fully and unconditionally cooperated with the conditions he proposed. She also said on the spot that she would arrange for someone appointed by the Youth League 1 of the target province to accompany her and assist throughout the process.
.
After confirming this matter, Fang Zhecai mentioned that the place he was most interested in was a certain province in southwest China. He saw in the newspaper that the local people were living in difficulty and that many children in the mountains had difficulty going to school. Therefore, he planned to donate a certain number of teaching buildings every year, as well as
Some supplies needed for life and study.
We had lunch at the office. We agreed on a time and informed her to ensure that there would be someone to greet us when we arrived in the target province. Sister Liu did not stay long and stood up to leave. Yun Jue said that she was very busy at work and she deliberately took time out today.
What Fang Zhe noticed was that her dress could only be described as plain in the imperial capital.
The trip to the Southwest was a matter of time, I booked a flight ticket for the day after tomorrow, took a day off and then set off.
When he walked out of the airport and saw the receptionist holding a sign, Fang Zhe was stunned.
