My abandoned oil town became a new frontier

Chapter 498 As long as we don’t have to pay for it, anything is fine!

“Do you have any target companies to attract investment?”

Upon hearing that Xiang Hongzhong had already arrived in Country M, Zhao Bo immediately asked again.

"Is it that the impact of the R system's withdrawal from our Ice Lake is getting bigger and bigger?"

A little silence,

Xiang Hongzhong's voice came in a low voice.

Obviously,

Although Xiang Hongzhong has already gone to Country M on behalf of Binghu, he has been silently worrying about Binghu's every move in his heart.

"There is some impact now, but it is not as serious as imagined! The reason I asked you is because there have been a lot of things happening in Binghu recently, and your investment promotion results this time may be very important."

Zhao Bo immediately continued.

"Recruitment results? I know that the R series cars have a great influence. Director Zuo also said that it would be best to introduce some direct stores or sales companies of foreign car brands during this recruitment."

Xiang Hongzhong was a little confused.

Zhao Bo is now the head of the Binghu Commerce Bureau, but he had dealt with him a lot before his promotion. It was even he who recommended Zhao Bo to the Commerce Bureau, and the two have a very good relationship.

"Director Xiang, the importance of what I said is not what you think."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Bo spoke again.

"Not what I thought? So what you mean is..."

"Director Xiang, before the National Day, the top leaders held a meeting to determine the specific staffing numbers and ranks of each unit in Binghu. They also issued an internal notice stating that they would determine the new leadership team for Binghu City.

Currently, all the leaders above the assistant researcher level in Binghu have drawn up a list of fifteen people.

You are one of them!"

"I?"

There was a hint of complexity in Xiang Hongzhong's voice.

"Yes! But I heard that the leader made new arrangements after reading the list, saying that six people will be selected from the list of fifteen people as the new executive leaders of our Binghu.

Although no one said it openly,
But in fact, those on the list have been rolled up.

Apart from anything else, Lao Luo, the head of Asai County, has already started to promote the Bing-A Expressway with all his strength, and took his team to Lan City, hoping to build a Xiaguo ancient costume trade center in Asai County based on the Bingque brand. "

When it comes to the current status of the glacial lake,

Zhao Bo said with emotion.

Before coming to Binghu, everyone thought that Binghu's economic indicators were excellent and there was no need to worry about not getting paid like in other places. All they had to do was do their job well every day.

However, when I arrived at the ice lake, I found that it was not what I thought at all.

It felt like everyone was rolling up and down the ice lake!

It's the kind that you are willing to roll with.

"Lao Luo is a man with a lot of ideas and strong execution ability."

No one knew what Xiang Hongzhong on the other end of the phone was thinking until half a minute later when his voice came again.

At this time, Zhao Bo opened his mouth again,
"And there's one more thing!"

"Anything else?"

"According to rumors, this time the R series medical equipment really hit a wall. They thought they were only withdrawing a few community health service centers and village clinics in Binghu, but Xu's Medical Group directly issued a notice to withdraw all R series medical equipment.

That's not counting,

At the end of November, the head of Ximen Medical Group from Country D will come to our Binghu for an inspection.

Once it's done,
Ximen Medical Group is likely to invest one billion US dollars to build a factory in Binghu to create a Blue Star Xiaguo equipment supply center."

Zhao Bo subconsciously lowered his voice.

"Ah? One billion US dollars in investment? Pure foreign investment? If the registration is successful, it will be counted towards this overseas investment promotion mission."

For a moment, Xiang Hongzhong didn't know what to say.

Since arriving in Lan City, leaders from all over Suqing Province have been making various preparations for this sea operation. They have inquired about all the relationships that can be mobilized and those that cannot be mobilized, but the final effect is very mediocre.

Only the city of Lanzhou seems to have made a water investment of 20 million US dollars.

Apart from this, other cities and provinces have basically no clue.

As a result, the leader at home did nothing in Binghu, but suddenly a purely foreign-funded enterprise with 10 billion M capital came here. How can others survive?
"Of course! But this is just a rumor, it hasn't been finalized yet, so don't tell anyone."

Zhao Bo spoke again.

"I know that!" Xiang Hongzhong took a deep breath.

"That's why I wanted to tell you quietly, if we can negotiate a company, the investment amount should be more than 1 billion gold, otherwise..."

Only then did Zhao Bo reveal the real purpose of his call to Xiang Hongzhong.

He didn't say the rest.

Because he knew that even if he didn't say it, Xiang Hongzhong would understand what he meant.

"Thank you very much!"

After waiting for more than a minute, Xiang Hongzhong's voice came.

"You are too polite. This is just hearsay and may not be true."

"understood!"

And so, the two chatted for a few more sentences and then hung up the phone.

On the other side of the ocean,
Country M, a hotel,
Xiang Hongzhong stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the neon lights on the street outside the window and pondered for a long time. Then he adjusted his mood, picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number.

Toot toot.
Soon, the call was connected,
"Hello, Mr. Scott? I'm Xiang Hongzhong, the person in charge of Binghu Investment Promotion, whom Mr. Zhang introduced to you before."

"Hello there!"

"Well, I wonder if you have time tomorrow? Can I meet you and talk?"

Xiang Hongzhong said hurriedly.

"Are you sure you want to cooperate with us? We produce electric cars, but there is no market for them on Blue Star right now! Your local support will most likely go down the drain."

The voice on the other end of the line sounded like both a reminder and a test.

"You worry too much! Since we at Binghu dare to promise the investment conditions we told you before, we will definitely do it without any compromise. As for the final result, if your company can accept it, then there is nothing we at Binghu cannot accept.

And I can also guarantee you,
Your company will enjoy further preferential treatment and policy support after arriving at our Binghu.”

Xiang Hongzhong said without hesitation.

Before leaving Binghu, Xiang Hongzhong specifically went to ask Xu Xing what conditions Binghu could offer to foreign-funded enterprises in this investment promotion.

Since Xu Xing did not pay attention to this so-called investment conference, he just replied, "As long as Binghu does not lose money, it's fine. As for the rest, you can decide for yourself."

After receiving the "instructions", Xiang Hongzhong suddenly became much bolder.

When the middleman introduced this so-called new brand car project to him, the direct condition he offered was that he could choose any remaining land in Binghu Business District and Binghu Industrial Park, and Binghu would provide it free of charge for 20 years. In addition, as long as the number of employed people reached a certain level, Binghu would also provide certain tax incentives.

This was the scene in front of me.

And just now he received another phone call that made Xiang Hongzhong feel more stressed.

in this way,

Xiang Hongzhong has completely let go and has only one principle in his mind: as long as he doesn't lose money, it's fine.

"Okay! Are you free at 7 o'clock tomorrow night? We can meet and talk then! I'll book the place."

The person on the other end of the phone laughed.
Obviously, he was very satisfied with Xiang Hongzhong's answer.

"Yes! By the way, Mr. Scott, if you are sure you want to invest, how much space will it take? I need to report to our general manager in advance."

Just when Xiang Hongzhong was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly thought of something and quickly added a sentence.

“How much space do we need?
The first phase investment of our project is 20 billion M gold, and the total investment is about billion US dollars. We need to build a high-quality office building, production plant, experimental site, etc.

Think for a moment,

The person on the other end of the phone only then told the general investment plan.

"Ah? The first phase investment is 20 billion. We also need to build a test site."

It would have been better if he hadn’t heard it. Once he heard it, Xiang Hongzhong was stunned for a moment.

At the same time, my heart skipped a beat.

The weather in October is already very cold for the Northwest.

Perhaps it’s because Ice Lake is so popular this year that even though the National Day is about to pass, you can still feel a wave of heat at noon.

at this time,

Opposite to Binghu College,

Zhang Hancheng appeared in front of Liu Ming holding a thick roll of drawings.
