Chapter 42 The ship is easy to go, but the port is difficult to move
Qiu Shuguo has been like an ant on a hot pot these days, staying in Hong Kong in a panic-chaotic way. According to Yuan Jihua, in fact, he should have returned to China five days ago, but empty-handed, he still held on to a glimmer of hope that the young man surnamed Fang, who had a conflict with the Japanese, let his subordinates spread the news that Guo's shipping group might consider investing in ports in China. It was for this news that Qiu Shuguo resolutely decided to stay in Hong Kong for a few more days. Instead of going back empty-handed, it's better to give it a go. If you can bring back the investment investigators of Kuok's Shipping Group, it will be better than the sensational effect of Nakajima Co., Ltd.!
Moreover, the people in Weijiang are still generally resistant to the Japanese, after all, from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the establishment of New China, it has always been poisoned by the Japanese. Although it is said that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, China has been propagating Sino-Japanese friendship, but the history of blood and tears for decades is not so easy to fade in the hearts of those older generations. Therefore, although the entry of Japanese capital into Weijiang is a good thing in terms of the city-government-side, in the hearts of the people of Weijiang City and even Lu Province, right and wrong are not so easy to tell.
The Kwok Shipping Group is completely different, everyone is of the same clan and the same clan, and after 97 years, Hong Kong will return to China, from this point of view, the people of Shandong Province naturally have goodwill towards the capital from Hong Kong. Qiu Shuguo can sit in the position of deputy mayor, and he naturally knows all this. Moreover, Nakajima Co., Ltd. can only invest in the establishment of a few parts factories, while Kwok's Shipping Group will invest in ports, which of the two has more influence is naturally self-evident.
Once this investment is successful, for him, it will not only sit firmly on the throne of deputy mayor, but also have immeasurable benefits for his future career development. Qiu Shuguo has no ambitions, as long as he can retire from a vice-provincial position, he is already thankful and satisfied. If we can say that we can establish a good relationship with Guo's shipping group, the many port cities on the long coastline of Shandong Province will be a dazzling political achievement that will follow! Therefore, even if there is only the slightest hope, he will not give up.
It's just that the middle-aged man only appeared once after the fact, and there has been no news these days, and they can't find each other at all, which makes Qiu Shuguo's heart burn, as a deputy mayor who has just taken office, in the past few days of staying in Hong Kong, there have been a lot of rumors in the city, including some malicious slanderous words.
The mayor of Weijiang City and the secretary of the municipal party committee have officially spoken to him on the phone, although he has repeatedly explained, the other party is still skeptical, although Zuihou did not force him to return to China immediately, but between words, Qiu Shuguo can hear that the two are quite dissatisfied with their long stay in Hong Kong. And the province seems to have noticed this incident, if I delay it any longer, I'm afraid that the bigwigs in the province will also leave a very bad impression on themselves.
As soon as he thought of this, Qiu Shuguo felt that his head was going to explode. These days, he doesn't know how much his hair has fallen out, and he is also a lot haggard.
"Did you do something wrong? Or did people just say it casually, but they took it seriously? If that's the case, you're making yourself miserable!" Qiu Shuguo hugged his head and sat on the sofa. But he also felt that with the demeanor of that young man who was present at the time, it was obvious that he was an equal to Yu Qiuxuan, could he make such a bad joke with himself?
Where did he think that Fang Mingyuan did not forget about this matter, but felt that his attitude towards the Japanese made him very dissatisfied, and it was irresponsible to introduce him to the Kwok Shipping Group too early. In the past few days, the personnel in China have checked Qiu Shuguo's resume through various channels.
The results of the final investigation are quite satisfactory, although Qiu Shuguo also has all kinds of bad habits of officials, but judging from his previous tenure, he is still a person who wants to do things and has a certain ability to do things. Such an official is so-so, and it is reasonable to say that he is so-so. Fang Mingyuan knew that mainland officials could not be judged by the standards of Hong Kong officials, otherwise they would not be able to do things.
"Pull all the cadres out, all of them will be killed, there must be someone who has been wronged, and one by one, there must be someone who has slipped through the net" Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but think of the sentence he had heard in his previous life, and sighed in his heart.
After rushing back from the United States, Fang Mingyuan was thinking about how to persuade Mr. Guo to invest in port construction in Weijiang at this time, and it was best to take advantage of the situation and insert - into it. As for the huge amount of money needed, after the outbreak of the Gulf War, all the huge amount of cash earned cannot be deposited in the bank for interest. Although Fang Mingyuan remembered that there was a period of time in China in the future, the interest rate of banks was still relatively high.
Fang Mingyuan was calculating while looking at the information in his hand. Weijiang is located at the tip of the Ludong Peninsula, and if it is possible to control a port here, its radiation-radiation power can affect the Beijing-Tianjin region of China, the northeast region, South Korea, Japan, and even the Soviet Union. In the future, Russia is not to mention, but South Korea and Japan are in the forefront of China's import and export trade countries, and the annual transportation volume is extremely considerable. What's more, Weijiang City is much cheaper than Beijing, Tianjin and Northeast China in terms of land and labor prices.
And at this time, there is a greater benefit for the investment of Guo's shipping group, that is, with the approach of the ninety-seven, the country naturally hopes to be able to recover Hong Kong smoothly, so as not to affect Hong Kong's economic stability, the attitude of Hong Kong giants like the Guo family is of course very important, and their every move will set off a huge heartbeat in Hong Kong. If the news that Kwok's Shipping Group has invested heavily in the mainland at this time is undoubtedly a good thing for the domestic government. In this way, the Guo family's status in the eyes of the central government, the government, and the leaders can be further enhanced, and at the same time, more preferential policies can also be obtained.
Although there is a lot of money needed to invest in the port, Mr. Guo has decided to take a chance on crude oil futures, and the profits obtained must be more than enough to supply the construction of this new port. As soon as Fang Mingyuan thought that he would not only be able to repay the Guo family's loan, but also formally invest in the Guo Shipping Group, Fang Mingyuan's heart was full of motivation when he thought that he would not only be able to pay off the Guo family's loan, but also formally invest in the Guo Shipping Group.
"Fang Shao, Mrs. Guo is here!" Lin Lian pushed open the door and said softly.
Fang Mingyuan hurriedly jumped off the windowsill, and before he walked out of the door, Yu Qiuyuan had already taken Qing'er's hand and stood in front of the door. Fang Mingyuan did not notify anyone when he returned, and she and Old Man Guo were not at home in the afternoon, but they were still notified by the servants at home, and then they knew that Fang Mingyuan had returned from the United States.
Seeing Fang Mingyuan, Qing'er immediately shook off her mother's hand, ran to Fang Mingyuan's side, hugged his leg and said, "Brother Yuan, did you bring me a gift from the other side of the sea?"
Yu Qiuxuan couldn't help but sneer: "Qing'er, how can you ask for something when you see Brother Yuan?"
Fang Mingyuan stretched out his hand and hugged her, and said with a smile: "Sister Qiuxuan, child, isn't this normal, I was like this at the beginning." Sister Lian, bring those dolls. This time, Fang Mingyuan bought a few absolutely authentic Disney dolls at the Disney headquarters, all of which were half a person tall, and they were shipped back from the United States, but it took a lot of effort. When Qing'er saw the huge dolls of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, which were more than half a head taller than her, she was so happy that she threw herself on them and laughed.
"Qing'er, didn't my mother buy you such a doll too, why didn't I see you so happy?" Yu Qiuxuan said with a pretended displeasure.
"It was given by my mother, and this was given by Brother Yuan, of course it's different!" Qing'er looked righteous, and saw that Fang Mingyuan and the three of them were dumbfounded.
"It's really a little conscienceless!" Yu Qiuxuan pointed at Qing'er's nose and scolded with a doting smile, this lost daughter is now the tip of her heart.
"Huh, what is this?" Only then did she see the information on Weijiang City and Qiu Shuguo on the table, and picked it up and flipped through a few pages, and her face was already - revealing - surprised.
"Ah, it's nothing, this person is the deputy mayor of Weijiang City, and he came to Hong Kong to attract investment, and he met occasionally. I have some ideas for the past two days, and by the way, take a look at his information. Fang Mingyuan said as if nothing happened.
Yu Qiuxuan turned a few more pages, and he already understood the ** point in his heart. However, as for Fang Mingyuan's business talent, she is already convinced, and naturally she will not ignore the significance of this.
"Mingyuan, do you want us to invest in building a port in Weijiang?" asked Yu Qiuxuan solemnly.
Fang Mingyuan took the tea brought by Lin Lian, put it in front of Yu Qiuxuan and said, "Sister Qiuxuan, I hope that the Guo family can invest in building a port along the coast of the mainland, but whether it is Weijiang or not, it still needs to be determined by on-the-spot investigation." ”
Yu Qiuxuan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Mingyuan, don't hide it from you, the old man has been considering whether to increase investment in the mainland recently, my Guo family's main business is the shipping industry, but this port industry and the shipping industry can be said to be related, if it is possible, of course we are also willing to invest in the construction of ports in China." But...... This ship is easy to go, but it is difficult to move the port!"
