This little incident on the highway made Chen Taizhong feel very uncomfortable for a while. It was not because he was blocked from trying to gain some privileges, but because... he was really depressed when he saw outsiders enjoying super-national treatment.
After all, the chef of Beichong Hotel was good at cooking. After eating, he felt much calmer again. Then he hurriedly rushed and finally arrived at the airport at four o'clock in the afternoon. The flight was at six o'clock in the evening, so he was definitely in time.
While waiting to board the plane, Kang Xiaoan from the Hengbei Provincial Electricity Company also arrived with several people. What was eye-catching was that Mr. Kang’s car turned out to be a Mercedes-Benz 500.
Are you trying to defraud investors, or do you want to enjoy it for yourself? District Chief Chen was quite speechless at Kang Xiaoan's display of wealth. The tone of this state-owned enterprise is indeed higher than that of the government.
However, Mr. Kang had no time to care about his feelings. Instead, he walked to the King Long car and chatted with Miss Kennedy from Prince Company. Liu Kangmei's trip to Beichong not only confirmed the design ideas of Beichong Power Plant, but also conveyed
Here's some news - the US-funded companies that cooperate with Beichong are extremely powerful.
The wishes made by Mr. Liu and Miss Kennedy were authorized by Kang Xiaoan. Unfortunately, Price Company only showed a slight interest at the beginning, and then stopped caring.
Mr. Kang also knew that Liu Kangmei was not a business owner, and that Prince's promotion first and then suppression might be a tactic, so although it was not appropriate for him to rush to Beichong, he would like to see him off at the airport in Yangzhou.
, but it doesn’t lose its identity.
When Kang Xiaoan comes here, he naturally won't talk about cooperation. The funding gap of the geopower industry is really too big. For such a big cooperation, it is only serious for both parties to get in touch with each other first - especially if he acts too impatient,
It is inevitable to suffer losses when negotiating.
So the two just had a brief chat. Mr. Kang first praised Miss Kennedy's beauty, saying that there are not many women in the world who are both beautiful and capable. He also said that he has a lot of things to do these days.
Otherwise, it’s a cliché that you must receive a good reception.
Anyway, the conversation was lively and not very meaningful. It was only when the conversation was about to end that he said that the geoelectric company was in the early stage of construction and required a lot of equipment and funds. He hoped to have the opportunity to work with Prince Company in the future.
cooperate.
Seeing that it was almost time, Kang Xiaoan gave him his own gift, and the gifts from the other seven people. It was Hengbei's specialty - a series of bamboo pen holders, which were extremely exquisite. The one he gave to Miss Kennedy was...
It is a jade statue of Guanyin, the kind that hangs around the neck.
Looking at the thin jade piece, Catherine hesitated and accepted it, but for some reason, her eyes glanced at the green ring on District Chief Chen's hand, intentionally or unintentionally.
It was only 5:20 when the guests entered the terminal. Chen Taizhong was about to direct Beichong's golden dragon to turn around. Kang Xiaoan came over and grabbed him, "Director Taizhong, since you are here, why bother leaving?
"
"There are still a lot of things going on in our district," District Chief Chen said with a sad expression. "When you went to Beichong on Wednesday, I received you well. Now you really have to go."
"No, since you're here, you must have a drink before leaving," Mr. Kang firmly held him tight, "If you don't introduce such a powerful company to me, you must drink as a fine... Your industry in Beichong
I still need to guarantee the electricity usage.”
"Then let's eat and go, I can't stay here." When District Chief Chen heard that electricity was guaranteed, he could only do the next best thing. This time he came to Chaotian, but he didn't bring many people with him. Except for Bai Fengming, the others were with him.
A few from the government office.
"Stay here and discuss the details of the contract." Kang Xiaoan really wanted to ask him to stay, but seeing District Chief Chen's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to give up.
The meal was still at the Huahai Hotel. Mr. Kang had made arrangements in advance. This occasion still had a hierarchy. Mr. Kang, District Chief Chen, Director Zhao and District Chief Bai were in one private room, while the others were in other private rooms.
Interestingly, the hotel also arranged a girl to accompany him. Next to Kang Xiaoan was the tall woman Chen Taizhong had seen. Next to the other three people were all pretty little girls.
District Chief Chen wanted to say no, but he didn't know what the official culture of Chaotian was like. Since he wanted to seek local power, he didn't want to be too unconventional, so he could only hold his nose and admit it.
Kang Xiaoan wanted to drink slowly, but Chen Taizhong didn't care about that. He came up and called on everyone to drink three glasses in a row for the sake of happy cooperation, and then he followed suit and took the lead in making circles.
Mr. Kang understood at a glance that this guy wanted a quick victory, so he didn't do it slowly. It only took twenty minutes for all four of them to fight.
Er said, "Mr. Taizhong District, can you help me put in a nice word with Prince Company and invest some money in local electricity?"
"Your 'little' amount of electricity is too much for others," Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head, "I really don't dare to say such a nice thing, my shoulders are too narrow and I can't carry it."
"Nothing more, nothing less. Geoelectricity is really short of funds," Kang Xiaoan sighed, "Your financing this time is 500 million. Originally you planned to raise 780 million, can you lend me the difference?"
"
"Do you also see this little money?" Chen Taizhong looked at him strangely, and then shook his head disapprovingly, "Mr. Kang, with all due respect, if you borrow the money too randomly and loosely, it will give people the impression that
not good."
Kang Xiaoan was speechless and shook his head helplessly for a long time, "I would like to borrow enough money after thinking about it, but this is not realistic... I can use the income from the power grid as a guarantee. Do you think it can be done?"
This was said very sincerely. Some things don’t need to be said so clearly. Mr. Kang also knew in his heart that one of the reasons why Prince Company was not interested in this was that there was no guarantee for this financing. At the same time, Prince was in Hengbei.
Without strong support from the top, people are unwilling to deal with this problem.
But for Chen Taizhong, this is really not enough. He laughed dryly and said, "Actually, this investment company is somewhat similar to a bank. If you don't have money, it's hard to invest. If you have relatively sufficient funds, we can talk about it.
Financing is much easier.”
What District Chief Chen said was a bit... well, all he could do was point at the other person's nose and say, "You are a free-handed wolf."
Kang Xiaoan also blushed a little at these words. The other party was rough-minded but not rough-minded. He also knew that this was his shortcoming, but this is also a common phenomenon. As the old saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning.
So he was slightly unconvinced, "District Chief Chen, your Beichong power plant is also fully financed. Let's put it this way... What do I need to do before Prince will consider my financing request?"
"Mr. Kang, are you kidding me?" District Chief Chen sighed in confusion, "You should ask Prince Company this question, not me. If I can help you, I will let it raise funds with you directly."
"The fact that it can fully finance you shows how important you are," Mr. Kang chuckled, looking a little drunk, "Director Taizhong, you have this ability. I always have a feeling that Prince's boss is very
Value your opinions and suggestions.”
"I would really like to have this kind of influence, but unfortunately, this is not realistic," District Chief Chen shook his head with a smile, "Mr. Kang, haven't you noticed what the last name of the CEO of Prince Company is?"
"Her last name is Kennedy," Kang Xiaoan replied casually. He did drink a little too much, but at the same time, it must be pointed out that he would only say some uneasy words when he drank too much.
When he didn't drink too much, even if he knew he could talk like this, he... wasn't used to talking like that.
However, the next moment, he stayed there, "Uh, Kennedy, it can't be that Kennedy...the assassinated president of the United States?"
"That's the Kennedy," Chen Taizhong nodded. When Catherine came to Hengbei this time, she showed her last name in a dignified way, which made District Chief Chen make a joke when introducing it to Secretary Wang.
Later, she explained that this was the beginning of her influence in China and she was afraid of being remembered, so she revealed her birth name. However, District Chief Chen always felt that this was the beginning of her career on the right track and she was no longer afraid of being laughed at by her relatives in the United States.
In short, Catherine's identity is no longer afraid of being revealed, so he smiled and nodded, "Mr. Kang is right, her uncle is the president who was assassinated... Do you think I can influence her?"
Decide?"
"So that's it," Kang Xiaoan nodded, but his eyes were a little straight, looking extremely disappointed.
Seeing his appearance, Chen Taizhong felt a little unbearable in his heart. A man who only devoted himself to work could be so worried, so he added, "If you can guarantee Beichong's power supply in the past two years, once the power plant is completed,
When it is put into production, I can help you arrange an investment of at least 300 million yuan."
"That's a deal," Kang Xiaoan's eyes lit up slightly. To him, three hundred million dollars in two years' time doesn't mean much, but it's better than nothing. "What should I do to make these three hundred million dollars possible?"
Hundreds of millions arrived early?"
"It's impossible to advance," Chen Taizhong shook his head decisively. He was sometimes willing to be kind, but he was not a bad person without a bottom line. In fact, his heart was much harder than the average person.
, no matter how much money I have, I will only consider Beichong at the moment."
"Will there be more money?" Kang Xiaoan is worthy of being a provincial government official. Even though his mind was a little dizzy, he still grasped the key words in it.
"This... it will be several hundred million," Chen Taizhong thought that Hong Kong Borui would also come to discuss investment as soon as possible. He felt that there was no point in hiding it at this time, and he was just a villain. "But Beichong wants to use it."
"Director Taizhong, we can discuss this," Kang Xiaoan's eyes lit up in an instant.
"This... is really not possible," Chen Taizhong was thinking about how to refuse when his cell phone rang.
