Misfortunes never come alone, blessings come together. High speed.
For Xu Bing, the difficulties were far more than this major personnel adjustment, which severely damaged his vitality.
Among the projects he is now personally responsible for, one of the key projects is Wanhai Group's project to expand investment in Jingjiang.
Originally, this project was a done deal, and the talks were almost complete last year.
But Dong Guangyun appeared halfway and made him lose face. After such a delay, unexpected changes took place.
Wanhai Group was in difficulty last year. It faced great pressure in Chujiang, and normal production and operations could not be guaranteed. At that time, they were eager to get rid of the dilemma in Chujiang and were trying to find a place to stay. At that time, Jingjiang was their special focus. place.
But in the second half of last year, the situation changed wonderfully.
Shen Menglan of Wanhai Group struggled to survive and forced the provincial government and Chucheng city government to make great determination to eliminate all the hidden dangers of Wanhai Group one by one.
Wanhai Group got out of trouble and became full of vitality, and the situation immediately changed.
They have gone from smelly shit to fragrant steamed buns. Every city in the province is ready to make a move, hoping to get investment from Wanhai Group.
Among these cities and autonomous regions, Takenori City has already taken action.
Such changes undoubtedly make Wanhai Group's willingness to invest in Jingjiang less urgent.
Xu Bing originally wanted to take over the entire project at the beginning of this year, and then smoothly launch the project, striving to complete all the branches of Wanhai Group in Jingjiang within one or two years. This would be very important for Jingjiang City, especially Sanhe District. The economic recovery is absolutely of great significance.
But since this year, Xu Bing has tried hard many times, but he has been unable to achieve the expected results.
This is not what makes him most distressed. What makes him most distressed is that the person in charge of Wanhai Group's investment in Jingjiang has actually changed.
Shen Menglan did not personally take charge of this area at all, but handed over this work to Tu Gang, the newly appointed vice president of the group.
Tu Gang was a cunning and arrogant man. Xu Bing had met him several times, and this guy was so loud that he hoped that Jingjiang City could provide free land to Wanhai Group.
Xu Bing almost fainted when he heard this condition. The land that Jingjiang City needs is not one or two acres, but hundreds or thousands of acres. According to the current lowest preferential policy, this is tens of millions of dollars.
Moreover, the tens of millions in hand are not enough for the government to spend on demolition.
It was originally a loss-making investment, but the other party still kept pushing forward. Why wasn't Xu Bing angry?
Just like that, the project was stuck.
But Tu Gang ignored Xu Bing's anger at all. Jingjiang couldn't provide land, but other cities were willing. In this case, why invest in Jingjiang?
Now every city has an urgent need for capital, and the competition between cities is fierce. When Jingjiang no longer has environmental advantages, Xu Bing will not be able to find any advantage in negotiations.
The problem now is that this project is stuck here, and Xu Bing must report it immediately.
Otherwise, if this project fails and the cooked duck flies, and he is personally responsible for this project, how can he explain it to everyone?
Wouldn't his mayor's prestige be wiped out because of this?
"Boom, boom!"
Xu Bing frowned and said, "Who is it?"
The person who pushed the door open was Du Xiushen, secretary-general of the Political Axis. He stepped into the door and said: "Mayor, Mayor Liu and Director Ni of the Diesel Locomotive Factory are here!"
Xu Bing was stunned and looked at the door in surprise. Executive Deputy Mayor Liu Decai laughed loudly: "Mayor, I'm sorry to bother you. Lao Ni and I have become uninvited guests!"
Xu Bing stood up, a smile instantly appeared on his face, and said: "Come in, come in! What kind of uninvited guests are you? I don't think you two are going to the Three Treasures Palace!"
Liu Decai and Ni Yongsheng entered the door.
Xu Bing warmly greeted the two of them to sit down, and arranged for his secretary to pour tea.
Du Xiu Shen was about to say goodbye when Xu Bing pressed his hand and said: "Xiu Shen, you sit down too! Yong Sheng is a rare visitor today, it's not easy to come here. Let's have a good chat together!"
He paused, looked at Ni Yongsheng and said, "Yongsheng, how are you? Do you feel confident? I think you are in good spirits!"
Ni Yongsheng said modestly: "Mayor, the city attaches great importance to our motorcycle factory, and we are all very encouraged. Especially this economic work conference, we have been identified as a key enterprise, and we are very proud. Now we are full of waste.
But when it comes to confidence, we are really confident!”
Liu Decai laughed and said: "Mayor, I know this very well. Ni Yongsheng didn't just talk nonsense. I just went to the motorcycle factory yesterday, and indeed their spirit has improved. I temporarily organized a meeting for their leadership team, and they all spoke.
We have all expressed our determination. I have brought these specific materials over today. Mayor, please take a look at them!"
Liu Decai handed Xu Bing a stack of materials.
Xu Bing took the materials in his hands and looked at them briefly, then nodded and said: "Not bad, not bad! Mental outlook is the first priority, and having a good mental outlook is half the success."
Liu Decai made a haha, the smile on his face gradually faded, and he changed the topic: "But now there is a problem, which is the financial problem. Yongsheng and the others have formulated a detailed production and marketing plan. In terms of product lines and production lines,
They have been specially optimized.
At present, the technology of our internal combustion engines, especially diesel internal combustion engines, has reached the world's advanced level.
In the past few years, they have been working hard to focus on this area, and it should be said that the research and development results have been outstanding.
We now have advanced technology, but we cannot produce good products. On the one hand, our production technology is not good enough in some places. We also need to cooperate with excellent foreign manufacturers, and we need to work harder on the procurement of some spare parts.
, Of course, we don’t have working capital. Not to mention marketing expenses, even the funds to purchase raw materials, we don’t have enough.
All of this requires financial support. Lao Ni and I have calculated together that if we want to truly revitalize the internal combustion engine factory, we need almost three to four billion!
Even if it is a conservative estimate, we must prepare at least 2 billion. The key to the problem now is how do we deal with this money?"
Xu Bing was taken aback and blurted out: "Two billion? Do you need that much money?"
Without saying a word, Ni Yongsheng handed a thick stack of materials to Xu Bing and said, "Mayor, this is our detailed calculation. Please take a look at it!"
Xu Bing took the materials in his hands and felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle. The taste was indescribably strange.
He finally understood the purpose of Liu Decai and Ni Yongsheng's visit today.
What a big statement. One mouthful is two billion. Is Xu Bing capable of getting two billion?
In the past, Xu Bing had some connections in the province and some connections in the capital. At that time, he claimed that he had connections with money. But that was when the national macroeconomic policy encouraged investment.
Now that the country is tightening money and strictly controlling the scale of investment, Xu Bing's relationships are already somewhat reluctant. In such a general environment, how can he get such money?
Besides, given the current situation in Jingjiang, Jingjiang Internal Combustion Engine Factory claims to have core technology, but whether this technology is necessarily reliable in the industrialization process needs to be tested in practice. How easy is it to get the project approved?
Jingjiang has no money, Chujiang is financially tight, and the country has money.
But is the country’s money Xu Bing capable of shouting two billion?
Don't Liu Decai and Ni Yongsheng know this?
Obviously, Liu Decai and Ni Yongsheng are here to give him problems today.
Now that Xu Bing wants to turn his passiveness into his own initiative, he must act immediately and master key tasks. Only in this way can he continue to have a chance to compete with Chen Jing.
Otherwise, now that Chen Jing has fully gained the upper hand and Xu Bing is still unsure about Zheng Ax's work, what will be the final outcome?
"Despicable villain!" Xu Bing cursed secretly. Liu Decai was a white-eyed wolf. He used to be well-behaved, but now that he had just encountered a setback, he turned around and took advantage of him.
Liu Decai has been responsible for contacting the internal combustion engine factory for a long time. He and Ni Yongsheng are so nice that they can wear a pair of trousers, but there is still so much filth between them!
At this time, Liu Decai still wanted to firmly hold the internal combustion engine factory in his hands. Besides using Xu Bing, what other good options did he have?
Obviously, Xu Bing is now facing another dilemma.
Liu Decai raised the problem. If he can't handle it, where is his prestige and authority as the mayor?
But if he is determined to take this matter forward, he will have to rush around every day and finally work hard to solve the problem of the internal combustion engine factory. Who gets the credit? Liu Decai can just sit back and enjoy his political achievements without exerting any effort.
This guy’s calculations are too good!
Xu Bing pondered for a moment and said: "Old Liu, Old Ni, the internal combustion engine factory is an important enterprise in the city and an important project for us. The specific operation of this project cannot be determined by anyone alone. We must hold a meeting first.
discussion and then submit it to the Standing Committee for discussion.
We need to consider the opinions of all parties before we can decide on the specific details of this project. Of course, the same goes for the funding issue!
Let me take a look at the materials you submitted first. We should do it sooner rather than later. We will hold a meeting the day after tomorrow to study it first. We will submit it for discussion at the next Standing Committee meeting!
The time is not waiting for me now. Every minute we lag behind, we may be overtaken by our competitors. Our internal combustion engine factory is now our hope in Jingjiang. We must revitalize the company at all costs. In this regard, Mr. Liu, you must be more careful.
, of course, Director Ni, as the chairman, you must devote yourself wholeheartedly!"
Xu Bing thought about it for a long time, did a Tai Chi push hand, and finally left this problem to Chen Jing to solve!
Isn't Chen Jing very powerful? Since he is so incompetent, he should be able to help the internal combustion engine factory obtain funds. If you can't do it, who else in Jingjiang can shoulder this burden?
But as soon as he said this, Xu Bing realized that he had been fooled again.
It's true that Liu Decai had thought of this a long time ago, but he didn't dare to throw this issue directly to Chen Jing and let himself get involved. Chen Jing would remember this matter in his head later. When he thought of this,
He was in a very bad mood and wanted to slap the table and scold his mother.
Xu Bing did a lot of things that added insult to injury, but one day when something like this happened to him, it was really uncomfortable. To be continued.)
