1945 tricky
"The annual international trade transaction volume is less than one million, and if you rent two houses in Fuso and put up the brand of a branch, is it considered a multinational group?"
Before Feng Jie could say anything, one of his subordinates, a business elite wearing gold-rimmed glasses, couldn't help but laugh.
"We dare to say that we are a multinational group even if our Longteng Company's transaction volume does not reach 1% of the transaction volume, this Huayang really dares to brag."
"If Huayang can be considered a multinational group, then we, Longteng, will be one of the world's top 500 companies."
"It's really funny. In Ninghai, there are small companies like Huayang all over the place. They can barely become the lowest member of the billionaire club."
"There is a saying in the Ninghai business district that one billion does not mean you are rich, only tens of billions start. Our annual profits at Longteng are calculated in tens of billions, and we don't go around shouting that we are a multinational group."
…
Someone took the lead, and a group of business elites burst into laughter, talking all over the place, not concealing their disdain for Huayang.
"Shut up, are there any rules?"
Feng Jie saw that Governor Song's face was a little ugly, and he scolded in a low voice with a straight face. The elites under his command immediately sat upright, and no one said anything.
Governor Cheng said thoughtfully: "Mr. Feng means that Huayang actually does not have that much ability to invest in the third line?"
"Of course, before coming to Urumqi, I specifically learned about Huayang's information. The total assets of Huayang Group are about over one billion, of which real estate accounts for the majority. As you know, except for some
Enterprises that are entities may have sufficient cash reserves. Generally, companies have very tight liquidity. Huayang Ji
Tuan started out in the real estate business, and funds are tighter than ordinary companies. How could it possibly spend more than 700 million to invest. Therefore, I concluded that Huayang would inevitably be temporarily unable to turn over funds after starting construction.
We have to use the excuse of having to stop work to put pressure on the city and get the leaders to come forward and ask for a large loan from the bank."
Feng Jie said his conclusion with confidence.
"Does Huayang have other financing channels?"
Governor Cheng said thoughtfully that although there was no evidence to prove Feng Jie's words, he had a vague feeling that it was probably the truth.
"In commercial operations, financing methods are diversified, but there is no way that is more convenient and faster than the government's borrowing from banks. Let me tell you something that everyone here does not like to hear. Today's leaders pay attention to political achievements. Huayang
It is because of this that we dare to play like this. Just imagine, the project has been approved and construction has started. If the work suddenly stops, Huayang asks you to come forward to say hello to the bank. For the sake of political performance, will you refuse to help? "
Feng Jie said matter-of-factly.
The people present were silent. If that happens, there is no doubt that for the smooth progress of their investment projects and political achievements, no matter how reluctant they are, they can only hold their noses and say hello to the bank.
"This is called borrowing money to lay eggs. In the name of investment, it is actually using the bank's money to make money. If they can make money, everyone will be happy. If they can't make money, then I'm sorry, they don't have the money to pay back.
To the bank, the leader who finally greets the bank must bear all the responsibilities. In order to prevent the matter from getting bigger, the leader can only continue to put pressure on the bank, asking them not to rush so urgently. With the endorsement of the leader, over time, the money will be paid.
It will become a bad debt if nothing is done."
Feng Jie said eloquently: "This is still good. There are still people who are sincerely trying to hijack the bank's funds. Even if they make money, they will not return it to the bank. Anyway, there are leaders who are taking care of it."
Although the words were not said clearly, most people here understood that the government and businessmen colluded to use bank funds to enrich themselves. If it were other people, they might not do this.
, but the Li family and Mayor Han have always been very close. The possibility mentioned by Feng Jie is no longer speculation, but a definite fact.
Governor Song, in particular, was deeply touched. The Li family and his son were so lawless that they dared to touch his own people. If something happened, they would immediately kill Mayor Han to silence him. What else could they not dare to do?
Governor Cheng's face was gloomy, and he knocked on the table unconsciously. No one knew what he was thinking, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became solemn.
Feng Jie was calm and sipping his tea as if nothing had happened. He also knew that his words had violated a taboo. There were some things that everyone knew well and it would not look good when put on the table.
But he has never been an aimless person. Since he said this, he naturally has his purpose. The first is to test the character of Governor Cheng to decide the next step of investment in Qingjiang; the second is to strive for the maximum benefit for Long Teng, although this is
The chairman's brother introduced the relationship, but in business, he is not a philanthropist, but a businessman. Every investment must be responsible for the group, and since the investment must get the return it deserves.
Although the Huayang Group was not under his radar, the Lion fought the Rabbit with all his strength. Strategically, he could despise the opponent, but tactically, he would never make the mistake of being careless and underestimating the enemy.
You must know that Huayang Group is a local enterprise and occupies the natural advantage of favorable geographical location and people. Although Governor Lu, the leader of local forces, has been dismissed, and Mayor Han, a representative figure, has also been silenced, but considering the stability of the overall situation, the above cannot
It is very likely to carry out a large-scale purge of entrenched local forces.
This has resulted in many officials siding with Governor Cheng under pressure, but this does not mean that they will definitely obey his words. On the surface, they may not dare to make any extraordinary moves, but they cannot do small things behind the scenes.
Avoid, this will have a great impact on Longteng Group’s next investment plan.
Feng Jie's intention in saying this was actually very simple. He just wanted to lift the lid. Just because Mayor Han died, his faults could not be eliminated. Old accounts that should be settled still had to be settled.
Only by holding on to it in this way can we further weaken the strength of Huayang Group and facilitate the merger and acquisition of Longteng Group.
"Governor Song, please sort out all the investment projects of Huayang Group in Urumqi over the years and send them over later."
Governor Cheng was also a decisive person and ordered Governor Song.
In China, death is the most important thing. He had really planned to settle the matter before and did not want to hold a dead person responsible. But now that Feng Jie has lifted the lid, he will investigate even if he doesn't want to.
You must know that although the Li family and his son were arrested on suspicion of kidnapping, they have nothing to do with Huayang Group. It is difficult for the government to take any measures against Huayang Group. After all, they are only the largest shareholders of the group. Their personal crimes cannot be implicated.
To Huayang Group.
But now, Feng Jie's words have brought a new turn to the matter. If it is true, as he said, that Huayang Group's investments over the years have been fishy and it owes a large amount of debt to the bank, then the official will have reason to punish Huayang Group.
Take action.
Of course, at this sensitive moment when the Li family and his son were arrested and the employees of Huayang Group were feeling uneasy, it was not a wise choice to attack Huayang Group.
Those employees were originally incited to cause trouble. Once the authorities really investigate and deal with Huayang Group, it is likely to cause even greater riots.
They are all smart people, and they understand the profound meaning of some words without saying them clearly. Governor Cheng has already understood what Feng Jie meant, and he has already started negotiations without making a move.
Using official power to create trouble for Huayang Group, in order to weaken the strength of Huayang Group and facilitate the next step of Longteng Group's work, this was Feng Jie's condition.
The implication is very clear, as long as the official can satisfy him, he will increase the
Investment in Urumqi and even the entire Qingjiang Province.
This made Governor Cheng secretly sigh, this Mr. Feng is really a difficult character. After talking for a long time, he still did not make it clear whether he would invest in Urumqi, but he quietly put forward the conditions. He is really worthy of being the person who once worked in Wubai City.
Business elites who have served as senior executives of powerful companies.
As a frontier official, although he didn't know Feng Jie before, as long as he wanted to, he could find out where his ancestors were buried for eight generations in a minute. Now Feng Jie's glorious resume is in
It's in the text messages on his mobile phone.
"Yes, I'll have someone sort it out right now."
Governor Song subconsciously glanced at Feng Jie, who looked like a normal person, with complex expressions in his eyes.
In fact, he has long heard that Huayang Group's investments in the past were very tricky. They never used real money. All investment projects were carried out with loans obtained from banks under pressure from Mayor Han.
.
He had hesitated to report this matter before, but since there was no conclusive evidence in his hand, and Mayor Han was already a dead man, if he persisted in holding on to this matter, he was afraid that he would become infamous even for the dead.
, so he did not respond to Governor Cheng in time.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jie would expose it now, which made him, the city governor, very passive. But he couldn't blame Feng Jie, but he was a little grateful to him. If he hadn't lifted the lid, Mayor Han would be gone.
It's not like he has to clean up the mess.
Secretary Chen hurriedly walked in and handed Huayang Group's investment agreement to Governor Song. Governor Song opened it, looked at it, handed it to Governor Cheng, and then ordered Secretary Chen to give Huayang Group's historical records
All incoming investment project information will be sorted and sent over.
Secretary Chen nodded repeatedly, turned around and left in a hurry. The information he wanted this time could not be prepared by calling the driver, Lao Zhao. He had to go there in person.
"Mr. Feng, this is the investment agreement of Huayang Group. Take a look at it."
Governor Cheng did not read the investment agreement and handed it to Feng Jie.
After Feng Jie took over the agreement, he read it word by word, with a look of shock on his face. Mayor Han was really crazy. He dared to agree to any conditions for political achievements.
For these three investment projects, the conditions given by the government are all enviable. For example, in the commercial street plan, the land will be provided to Huayang Group free of charge for seventy years, and the property rights of the ground buildings and attachments will belong to Huayang Group.
In addition, merchants who settle in the business are exempt from tax for the first three years and half tax for the next two years.
Once the commercial street is completed and officially launched, it can be said that all the benefits will be taken away by the Huayang Group. In addition to a decent project that promotes economic development, the government will only have tax revenue after five years as its only income, which can be compared with the land 70
Compared with years of free use, this income is simply a drop in the bucket.
What kind of investment is this? It is simply a blatant attempt to encircle land and collect money. Needless to say, Mayor Han, who personally promoted this investment, only he and the Li family and his son know how much benefit has fallen into their pockets.
There is also a high-tech development zone. The government also provides land for free. The property rights of the buildings and ground attachments belong to Huayang Group. High-tech companies that settle in the zone are exempt from taxes for five years.
The only thing that seems normal is the 6.7-kilometer county-level highway. All costs are funded by Huayang Group without asking for any return.
But Feng Jie still saw something fishy from the price of the investment agreement, but he was not a professional and couldn't be sure. He turned around and handed the investment agreement to a middle-aged and elderly man with gray sideburns behind him: "Mr. Wang, please
Chapter completed!
