Chapter 1290 Investigation, Leak
"President Tan, President Bao, President Ye, what step do we plan to take this trip to?" Xu Banxia asked curiously, looking at the three people sitting there with their eyes closed.
After working together for a while, Xu Banxia has sorted out her relationship with them, and they all get along very well.
By importing scrap steel from the Black Sea, Xu Banxia successfully escaped the small town of Binzhou, broadened her horizons, and learned a great deal, growing very rapidly.
If Xu Banxia before was unorthodox and guerrilla-style, then the current Xu Banxia can be considered a regular soldier, which is the result of following the progress of a good teacher.
"President Xu, the first thing we need to do during this trip to Changwu is to conduct an on-site inspection of the new factory site in the suburbs, and to compile statistics on the construction of the factory buildings and the planning of the industrial park! This will provide the necessary conditions for the steel plant to move in!" Tan Zongming said with a smile.
"Furthermore, we need to come up with a plan for the resettlement of those three thousand employees. I wonder what your plans are?" Ye Jinyan asked.
“I’ve already finalized the acquisition deal through the Kinmen Group in South Korea. They had a small steel mill that they wanted to sell, and I’ve already agreed on the price. Once our new factory is built, we can install the equipment we brought back from South Korea!” Abao said.
“At the beginning, the new factory will definitely not need that many workers due to its scale. I’ve thought of many solutions these days, but I haven’t come up with a perfect one!” Tan Zongming said helplessly.
"If you ask me, we should discuss this matter with Changwu City and Zhongjiang Province, and ask them to take responsibility for the resettlement of some of the people!" Ye Jinyan said.
"No, the matter of resettling the workers is non-negotiable. This is a task we must complete. Without this prerequisite, we simply cannot bring Provincial No. 1 Steel under our complete control!" Xu Banxia said.
"So what do we do now? These three thousand households are not just three thousand people. According to the previous data, the No. 1 Steel Company of the province has about four thousand employees and about one thousand retired employees. Including some affiliated agencies and institutions, the total number of people is about six thousand! But among them, there are 1,500 or above intermediate workers. With such a ratio, to be honest, I feel that this business will be very difficult to succeed!" Ye Jinyan said.
"What? Mr. Ye is giving up? You'd better think it over. There are quite a few people waiting to take over! Mr. Wei from Huanghe Road has approached me several times, wanting to join in, but I haven't agreed yet!" Abao said with a smile.
"What you're saying, Mr. Bao, I just feel it's difficult, I don't mean to give up. After all, this is the reward that Mr. Zhao promised, how could I give it up so easily!" Ye Jinyan quickly said.
“This steel plant will definitely be profitable, there’s no doubt about that. After all, our country is developing at this speed, and a large steel shortage is inevitable!” Xu Banxia said.
"Our main concern right now is the huge upfront investment in this steel plant. And it's not just this steel plant; the investment in chip manufacturing is also enormous, which is why everyone is a bit anxious!" Tan Zongming said with a smile.
"If you ask me, since we have enough technical personnel and relatively advanced equipment, why don't we use this scrap steel from the Black Sea to develop our own special steel? Then this steel plant won't be an ordinary steel plant anymore, and maybe we can even become a purchaser for some departments!" Abao said with a smile.
"Mr. Tan, has the equipment from Nanbang been loaded onto the ship yet? It might be heading this way after it arrives in Shanghai, so we need to hurry!" Abao said with a smile.
The car slowly entered the highway exit in Changwu City. At this moment, on the other side of the tollbooth barrier, a large group of middle-aged people were standing there, eagerly watching the approaching convoy.
"Well, it seems the news of our arrival has been spread far and wide!" Xu Banxia said with a smile.
"There's nothing we can do. Officials everywhere are the same these days. As long as there's even the slightest possibility of investment, they'll scramble for goods like they're buying New Year's goods," Tan Zongming said with a wry smile.
"Let's go, let's get off the bus and meet these local officials!" said Boss Bao.
After the convoy came to a stop, a young man quickly ran over, walked to the driver's seat, and looked at the driver.
"Master, is this the convoy from Shanghai that's here to inspect the No. 1 Steel Plant in the province?" the secretary asked.
“That’s right!” the driver said with a smile.
"May I ask which one of you is Mr. Tan Zongming? I am Wang Qun, the chief secretary of the Investment Promotion Office of Zhongjiang Province. Our director is waiting up ahead for Mr. Tan to see him," the secretary said.
“I am Tan Zongming!” Tan Zongming stood up and said.
"Mr. Tan, this way please, our director is waiting for you!" Secretary Wang quickly led the way with a smile.
The group gathered in a grand procession, causing passersby to wonder if some important figure had arrived.
"Oh, Mr. Tan, hello! I'm Li Duo from the Investment Promotion Office of Zhongjiang Province! Welcome to Zhongjiang with all of you!" Director Li said with a smile.
"Director Li, you're too kind! We're really flattered!" Tan Zongming said with a smile.
"Not at all, not at all. If it weren't for the fact that the main provincial leaders were in a meeting, they would have liked to come and attend the welcoming ceremony in person!" Li Duo said.
"Director Li, this is General Manager Bao, General Manager Ye, General Manager Xu, General Manager Feng, and General Manager Xu Banxia!" Tan Zongming then introduced the other general managers to Li Duo.
"In that case, we have booked a table of delicious food at a grand hotel in Changwu to entertain all of you executives. Please follow my car," Li Duo said with a smile.
So the group followed Zhongjiang's car directly to the hotel. Under the enthusiastic greetings and persuasion of a group of Zhongjiang provincial officials, everyone, including Xu Banxia, lost control of their bodies!
The next day, all of them woke up with splitting headaches.
"This liquor from Zhongjiang Province is no good, it's a bit too strong!" Ye Jinyan said as he walked out of the room, rubbing his head.
“If you drink like that, anyone would get drunk!” Boss Bao said with a smile.
"I can't help it, these officials can really drink! They can drink a lot and they can also persuade others to drink! They have all sorts of toasts, making it impossible for you not to drink!" Ye Jinyan finished speaking and ran over to wash up.
After the group finished packing up in a flurry and left the hotel, Secretary Wang appeared right on time.
"How was your rest, everyone?" Secretary Wang greeted them with a smile.
"Secretary Wang, what are the main items on today's itinerary? What we're most looking forward to seeing right now is a brand-new steel plant! After all, our equipment is already at sea!" Tan Zongming asked with a smile.
