At noon, the rising sun hangs high, and the spring breeze brings a hint of warmth.
The entrance of a seafood restaurant called "Haisheng".
Guo Panwei drove his Mercedes-Benz into the open-air parking lot. Lin Pingping, who was dressed in professional attire, opened the door and got out of the car. She opened the door for Dong Xuebin and let him get out. There was also a comrade from the first business department in the car who was about 20 years old.
There was a very young man named Zhang Fan. The reason why Lin Pingping brought him along was that, firstly, Zhang Fan also participated in the tracking and planning of this project. Secondly, Zhang Fan had a very good drinking capacity. I heard that the investor Liang Zeyuan was very drunk, so
I called Zhang Fan here just to accompany him. Only by eating well and drinking well can we carry out our work.
Lin Pingping asked: "Xiao Zhang, it depends on your performance this time."
Zhang Fan smiled bitterly and said: "Chief Lin, Mr. Liang's drinking capacity is one pound and a half. I was drunk by Mr. Liang last time..."
"Are you feeling thirsty before you even drink it?" Lin Pingping frowned and said, "You are in such a bad mood. You have to risk your life for me today. If the order is won, I will give you credit."
"I'll try my best." Zhang Fan could only bite the bullet and go ahead.
Dong Xuebin in front heard this and turned around, "Is the investor a good drinker?"
Lin Pingping smiled and said, "Last time I saw Mr. Liang drink a small bottle of Moutai alone, which was about one and a half kilograms. After finishing the drink, he was fine. It seemed that there would be no problem if he drank a few more.
Mr. Liang also likes people who can drink well. He talked more with Xiao Zhang than me at dinner yesterday, but he originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but Xiao Zhang couldn't do it after drinking a pound, so in the end we couldn't negotiate."
Dong Xuebin felt a little dizzy when he heard this, "You guys weigh your weight when you drink, but I weigh my weight when I drink."
Lin Pingping smiled and said: "Me too, only five taels will do."
"Haha, it's quite a lot." Dong Xuebin only took two or four.
At this time, the investor's car arrived, and a black Crown parked in the parking lot. As soon as the car door opened, a dark-skinned middle-aged man walked out. His leather shoes were stained with dirt and there was a little dust on his body, as if he had just been there.
It looked like a construction site. Lin Pingping whispered something, and Dong Xuebin realized that this person was Liang Zeyuan. Well, he really didn't look like a multi-millionaire, but more like a small rural entrepreneur.
Liang Zeyuan saw them from a distance, laughed and said hello, "Chief Lin, Xiao Zhang, I've been waiting for a long time." He said in a loud voice.
Lin Pingping smiled and said: "We have just arrived. Mr. Liang, let me introduce to you. This is Director Dong of our Investment Promotion Bureau."
Dong Xuebin reached out and said, "On behalf of China Merchants Group, I would like to welcome Mr. Liang."
Director? Seeing how young he was, Liang Zeyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook hands with him vigorously, "Director Dong, hello, hello."
After a while, Deputy County Magistrate Zhao Xinglong also arrived. After saying a few words of courtesy, everyone entered the hotel.
In the private room on the second floor, everyone gave way, and finally Zhao Xinglong took the chair. Also present were Dong Xuebin, Lin Pingping, Guo Panwei, Zhang Fan, Liang Zeyuan and his driver. When they entered the private room, Liang Zeyuan also asked him
The driver brought two boxes of Maotai from the car. It seemed that he really liked drinking, otherwise he would not have brought Maotai with him in the car when he went out for investment inspections. Liang Zeyuan was not from Yantai County.
All the dishes are served, mostly seafood.
Liang Zeyuan didn't say anything when he came up. He asked the driver to pour the wine and suggested that everyone drink first.
Dong Xuebin and the others have nothing to do. They need to work in the China Merchants Bureau, so drinking during working hours is not a big deal. However, the county seems to have regulations that prohibit drinking during working hours. Zhao Xinglong has to return to the county government in the afternoon, so Lin Pingping wants to explain to Liang Zeyuan.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xinglong was very generous. He picked up the cup and said with a smile: "I still have to go to work in the afternoon, but since Mr. Liang said it, I must drink this glass of wine, just this one. If I drink more, let County Magistrate Xie see it."
It's time to criticize me, haha." He really supports Dong Xuebin's work.
Lin Pingping also clinked glasses with them and drank them all in one gulp.
Not to mention Zhang Fan’s ability to drink, Guo Panwei seems to be a pretty good drinker too.
Dong Xuebin was the only one who felt a little embarrassed. The glass was full of two ounces of wine, but he hadn’t taken a bite of the food. His stomach was empty. He couldn’t stand the wine, and he was afraid of drinking it himself.
It was too embarrassing, so he had a harder time drinking this glass of wine, and it took him eight or nine sips to finish it. After putting down the glass, Dong Xuebin felt that he had "arrived", and if he had another glass, he would definitely fall to the ground drunk.
Dude, you have such a drinking capacity.
Dong Xuebin has a headache. This kind of situation will definitely happen again in the future, even a lot, but I really can’t deal with my drinking capacity. Drink it, I really can’t drink it. Don’t drink it. Who knows if other investors will have it in their hearts.
What do you think? Do you feel that you are not giving face? And if in the future, if you have to drink half a meal, Dong Xuebin will obviously not be able to cope with it.
This is a problem, and it’s a big problem.
While eating the food and talking, Dong Xuebin thought about how to overcome the problem of poor alcohol tolerance.
At the beginning of the banquet, no one said anything about work, just chatting. Generally, such things would be discussed in the middle of the banquet, that is, when the wine and food are almost full. After a brief contact, Dong Xuebin said to Liang Zeyuan
This guy had a good impression. He was a very straightforward businessman. He said whatever he wanted without making too many twists and turns. During this period, Liang Zeyuan answered a phone call. There seemed to be a friend on the other end asking him to borrow money, which seemed to be one million.
But Liang Zeyuan agreed without saying a word, he was very generous and generous.
Dong Xuebin nodded secretly, he liked to deal with this kind of people.
"Eh." Liang Zeyuan suddenly looked at Dong Xuebin's wrist in surprise, "Director Dong, is this your watch?"
Lin Pingping looked over and knew that Mr. Liang had seen Director Dong's Patek Philippe. In fact, she also wanted to know what was going on, mainly because the watch was too expensive.
"Watch?" Dong Xuebin raised his wrist and said with a smile: "Mr. Liang also likes watches?"
Liang Zeyuan chuckled, "I don't understand watches. I'm a tacky person, but I like diamonds. Director Dong, the total number of diamonds on your watch is probably one million, right?" He didn't know the brand of the watch, but he was interested in diamonds.
Liang Zeyuan is very knowledgeable about this stuff.
Guo Panwei's face changed and he was a little worried.
Dong Xuebin smiled disapprovingly and said, "I don't know how much it costs. I'm just wearing it blindly."
Zhao Xinglong was afraid that Liang Zeyuan would misunderstand and that it would affect the image of Yantai County cadres, so he smiled and said: "Director Dong's situation is quite special. He is the richest cadre in our Yantai County." Seeing that Liang Zeyuan, Lin Pingping and others were suspicious.
After a moment, Zhao Xinglong said: "Director Dong won the first prize in the lottery when he was with Beijing." Most of the cadres knew about this, but the people below didn't know much about it.
Lin Pingping suddenly realized what was going on.
Guo Panwei was stunned, and Zhang Fan also stared.
Dong Xuebin said: "County Magistrate Zhao exposed my old background. It's ridiculous."
"I see." Liang Zeyuan was immediately interested in Dong Xuebin. He won the lottery jackpot? He became the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau at a young age? This is definitely not an ordinary person.
After a brief contact, the real topic began.
Lin Pingping said: "Mr. Liang, how do you feel about your visit to our county this time?"
Dong Xuebin and Zhao Xinglong also looked over.
Liang Zeyuan drank up the wine in the cup, put the cup down and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not bad. I came to Yantai County once five or six years ago. The development now is much better than before, and the economic atmosphere is also good, but here I am."
People don’t like to beat around the bush, and to be honest, I went to the cold storage pre-construction site designated in the outskirts of your county, and compared with Dafeng County, there is still a little gap."
Zhao Xinglong spoke, "Mr. Liang, the county attaches great importance to the pork processing plant project. If the investment can be successfully secured, this will be a key county project."
Liang Zeyuan didn't say anything. The leaders of Dafeng County also said the same, and they paid no less attention to it than Yantai County.
Dong Xuebin said: "Mr. Liang must have read the county's support policy, right? Not only can taxes be reduced or exempted, but we can also give you the greatest discount on land acquisition."
Zhang Pingping took out a document and put it on the table and showed it to Liang Zeyuan, "This is the project budget I just calculated this morning. Land acquisition is 3 million, civil engineering is 4 million, equipment and facilities supporting costs are 10 million, plus
In addition to installation and commissioning fees, transportation fees, environmental protection facility fees and unpredictable fees, the total investment is about 21 million, and there are also tax exemption policies. This is the best effort we can make."
Liang Zeyuan looked at it and said, "The land acquisition fee is not high. Well, the cost is also within my expectations. But I won't hide it from you. Although the cost budget of Dafeng County is slightly higher than that of Guixian County, the supporting facilities are relatively complete.
The industrial chain is also very complete, which is what I value most, so I’m sorry, I won’t say anything perfunctory about thinking about it when I go back. In fact, after comparison, Dafeng County is more suitable for building a factory.”
This is rejection.
Lin Pingping and others fell silent, alas, it still doesn't work.
Zhang Fan was already a little tipsy, "Mr. Liang, are you thinking about it?"
Liang Zeyuan shook his head, suddenly glanced at Zhang Fan, and laughed and said: "Xiao Zhang has a good drinking capacity, he drank half a catty? How about this, Xiao Zhang, I have always admired people who drink better than me since I was a child. My drinking capacity is two
Jin, two kilograms at most. After drinking two kilograms, I won’t know what’s going on. Hehe, if you can drink harder than me and drink three kilograms of wine, I’ll go back to investigate again. How about that?” He said:
It's easy for a person to make friends with friends who have good food and wine, and his brothers are all good drinkers.
Xiao Zhang was dumbfounded when he heard this.
Damn it! Three kilograms of wine? Then I would have died from drinking it! Except for those professional escorts from the State Council, how many people in the world can drink three kilograms?
Zhang Pingping, Zhao Xinglong and others suddenly looked at Zhang Fan.
The meaning in Zhang Pingping's eyes was obvious: Xiao Zhang! Come on!
Zhao Xinglong also cast an encouraging glance.
Zhang Fan almost cried, what are you going to do? He really can't drink!
Suddenly, Dong Xuebin blinked, "Mr. Liang, are you serious about this?"
