“Besides being a coastal city, what other advantages does Jinghai have? If they want to come, they’ll go to our Jingzhou first. I haven’t even seen an American, and their project is already set up. Is this real?”
“Unless the Americans have gone crazy, why would they skip all the first-tier cities and choose Jinghai?”
Li Dakang didn’t believe this ridiculous story at all.
“I think the same way, I don’t know who spread the rumor, it’s too absurd.”
The secretary said.
“You can’t say that, Jinghai may have a weaker economic foundation, but its geographical location is good. It’s just that the previous officials were too bad, delaying Jinghai's development. I think this Xu Zhao is pretty good, maybe he really can attract such a large project.”
Chen Yanshi couldn't help but speak up for justice.
“Xu Zhao, his mouth is quite sharp, he is very suitable for lecturing at the Party School. But when it comes to economics, hehe, I’ve never seen him complete a single project.”
Li Dakang sneered.
“He used to be just a little secretary for Zhao Lishun, what kind of economic experience does he have? Now he has become the Municipal Party Secretary, doesn’t he have the opportunity to prove himself?”
Chen Yanshi said.
“Old Chen, since you know he was Zhao Lishun's little secretary, do you not know what kind of person Zhao Lishun is? Can any of the people he promoted be capable?”
Li Dakang said.
“Didn’t you also work as Zhao Lishun’s secretary, and you were also promoted by him?”
Chen Yanshi’s words left Li Dakang speechless.
The most disgusting memory for Li Dakang was when he was Zhao Lishun's secretary.
He didn’t want to admit that he was promoted by Zhao Lishun at all.
He relied on his own abilities!
“Whatever, let’s get the Guangming Peak project done, that’s more important than anything else. Old Chen, I’ll go first.”
Li Dakang didn't want to argue, he turned and left.
“Go slowly.”
Seeing him at a loss for words, Old Chen smiled happily.
Actually, Old Chen also knew that Li Dakang was different from ordinary secretaries, he did rely primarily on his abilities.
Chen Yanshi was just teasing him.
After getting into the car, leaning back and thinking for a while, Li Dakang said, "Go to the Provincial Committee."
The driver immediately started the car.
“Secretary Dakang, since Sun Liancheng can't afford to pay, we might as well forcibly confiscate his shares. Then we’ll have 51% of the shares and can take the lead in making decisions for Dafeng Factory.”
The secretary suggested.
“He owes the bank over six hundred million, if I take his shares, I have to pay it back.”
Li Dakang said.
As for the loan shark money, Li Dakang would definitely not take care of it.
Loan sharks are illegal, and they wouldn't dare ask him for money.
“Just tell the bank that we can’t pay this money back for now. If they want to recover this money, they can lend us a few more hundred million to buy the shares of the Dafeng Factory workers. Once we finish the Guangming Peak project and start making money, we’ll pay them back together.”
The secretary said.
“This idea is good, but my ex-wife was just arrested, and you are asking me to break the rules, this is throwing me into the fire. Even if I’m not afraid, the bank wouldn't dare to operate illegally at this critical moment.”
Li Dakang said impatiently.
Actually, he had already thought of this solution.
But right now, Jingzhou City is in a sensitive period, and the bank is also tightening their purse strings.
If it were normal times, he would have already used this method.
“Then the government can only pay for it first.”
The secretary said helplessly.
“Yeah, that’s why I need to ask Sha Shuji.”
Li Dakang said.
“Our city has this money, why do we need to ask Sha Shuji?”
The secretary was puzzled.
“The city’s money has its own uses, I’ll ask Sha Shuji to see if he can allocate a special fund.”
Li Dakang smiled slightly.
“I understand.”
The secretary thought: Isn’t he just trying to take advantage of the province?
No wonder some people say that Li Dakang is like a nagging wife, every penny has to be calculated.
Meanwhile.
Xu Zhao had just sent a group of officials away, he was enjoying a moment of peace, when his phone rang.
Seeing that it was the Provincial Party Secretary's office number.
He waited for three or four seconds before answering, “Hello, is this Sha Shuji?”
Sha Ruijin said, “It’s me, Secretary Xu, I’ve read your report, congratulations on getting such a big project.”
When he saw Xu Zhao’s report, he was very surprised. He didn’t expect that Xu Zhao would silently bring such a great gift to Handong Province.
It seems that Lu Zhengpin’s complaints and Lu Yike’s investigation had no effect on him.
His temperament was truly beyond his imagination.
What is this called?
This is called gathering strength and then striking like a thunderclap.
This is the attitude of someone who wants to do big things!
“I was lucky, it was settled in just over a month, it’s almost unbelievable.”
Xu Zhao said.
“Luck is also part of skill. Once this project is completed, it can drive the development of Jinghai's automobile industry and bring the city's economy to a higher level.”
Sha Ruijin had a good eye, he immediately saw the real value of this project.
To drive the entire automotive supply chain to move to Jinghai City, that’s the most important thing.
If lucky, Jinghai City can be built into an electric car city.
“But we have to build it first, electric cars, we still don't know if they will be successful.”
Xu Zhao said with a chuckle.
“Domestic electric cars have been very disappointing. I wonder if this Tesla can become a catalyst, stimulating the domestic electric car market.”
Sha Ruijin said.
“The technology for petrol cars is too mature, relying entirely on natural market replacement, I think it’s difficult. Sha Shuji, can we implement some policies in the whole province to push the electric car market?”
Xu Zhao said.
“You little guy knows how to take advantage of the situation, in terms of policy, I need to see your results first.”
Sha Ruijin said.
“Okay, I will definitely work hard to achieve results.”
Xu Zhao said.
“Then I’ll wish you good luck in advance, if you need anything, you can ask me.”
Sha Ruijin also began to take this project seriously, after all, it was also his achievement.
“Thank you for your support, Sha Shuji, I will.”
Xu Zhao said.
“Okay, that’s all, keep me updated on any progress.”
Sha Ruijin said.
“Understood.”
Xu Zhao said.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.
His biggest worry was that Sha Ruijin would have a grudge against him and disagree with the project being built in Jinghai City.
He might even try to take the project away.
He didn’t expect that Sha Ruijin hadn’t made any such request.
“Maybe I was overthinking, Sha Ruijin doesn’t have any plans to target me?”
Xu Zhao thought to himself.
