King of Industry

  Chapter 365 "Finance and Trade" Development Zone

  Maybe because he drank two drinks in a row at noon and night yesterday, Zhao Guoyang rarely overslept the next morning.

   After waking up, Zhao Guoyang looked at the time, and it was already half past ten in the morning.

  He was just about to call Liang Xiaofeng and tell him that he was going to the SJ City Motorcycle Inspection and Testing Institute when his mobile phone rang.

   When connected, it turned out that Mayor Huang Zhigang called himself.

   Zhao Guoyang hurriedly greeted Mayor Huang, but he was wondering what was going on.

   Mayor Huang's tone revealed a bit of joy, and he said loudly: "Guoyang, are you just getting up? I heard that you drank a lot yesterday..."

  Zhao Guoyang hesitated for a while, and replied with a little embarrassment: "Yes, Mayor Huang, I will definitely pay attention next time, and I won't drink too much..."

  Mayor Huang laughed and said, "Don't, don't, Guoyang, I'm not calling you to tell you to quit drinking."

"I just sent Chairman Jin of the Daewoo Group and his party on the plane. I heard about the dinner you had with Miss Jin of the Daewoo Group yesterday. Before Miss Jin left, she entrusted Lao Lu from the Foreign Affairs Bureau of SJ City You handed over a gift."

   After a few jokes with Zhao Guoyang, Mayor Huang turned to the main topic: "Guoyang, Daewoo Group's visit this time was much more successful than our city expected, and the two sides signed a lot of cooperation intentions."

   "Especially at Songqi Group, before boarding the plane, Chairman Jin confirmed with Zhichun with certainty, and will communicate with him further in the future. Among them, Guoyang, you have contributed a lot!"

  When Zhao Guoyang heard the words, he hurriedly said a few words of humility. He never thought that Daewoo Group would really plan to cooperate with Songqi Group.

  Huang Zhigang encouraged Zhao Guoyang a few words, and finally said: "Guoyang, if Daewoo Group really cooperates with Songqi Group on a large scale in the future, you still have to work harder and help Zhichun to check it out."

   "These businessmen in Bangzi Kingdom have always been extremely shrewd. Although Zhichun will not have any problems in the general direction, they still lack some technical details..."

  When Mayor Huang said this, Zhao Guoyang probably understood it in his heart.

   I think it must be the time Chairman Jin Yuzhong visited Songqi Group before. The mediocrity of some middle-level cadres under Songqi Group left a bad impression on Mayor Huang.

  In order to prevent Songqi Group from falling into a disadvantage in this kind of cross-border cooperation and being led by the nose, Mayor Huang naturally wanted to help him a little bit more.

  Actually, even if Mayor Huang didn't say anything about this matter, as long as Chairman Mao greeted him, Zhao Guoyang would definitely be obliged.

  But he made this call, which undoubtedly has a deep symbolic meaning.

   This represents the affirmation and recognition of the SJ city officials for their "special researcher", and this is not just a matter of Songqi Group.

   Chatted with Zhao Guoyang for a few more words, and heard him report that Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company may also cooperate with Daewoo Foreign Trade Company, Mayor Huang was even happier.

   "Guoyang, you boy can do it!"

Mayor Huang praised him, and then sighed, "Oh, sometimes when I think about it, I really should not have given Lao Zhuo face at the beginning, and should have forced you to stay in our SJ city. Now, it is too late to regret... "

  Mayor Huang valued himself so much, Zhao Guoyang was a little difficult to answer.

  If you are too modest, it is a bit hypocritical, but following Mayor Huang's meaning, it seems a bit arrogant.

  No way, he could only keep silent in the end.

  The boss asked Zhao Guoyang's Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company with great interest if there was anything else that needed to be coordinated.

  When Zhao Guoyang said that he had entrusted Director Zhong of Songqi Group to help lease an office building so that it could be officially listed as soon as possible, Huang Zhigang said directly: "Hey, Guoyang, you don't need to trouble yourself about this matter."

"I am very optimistic about your company. It will definitely be placed in our SJ city for a long time. Why are you renting this house? Just buy a building. Regarding the price of office buildings, I will ask the secretary to follow up. It will definitely not hurt you."

   "In addition, your company has just started, and most of the funds will be used for commercial activities. If you want to buy a house, you can apply for a loan from a bank in SJ City. I'll get someone to contact you later..."

  Mayor Huang's light words directly solved Zhao Guoyang's biggest problem at present, so he is naturally very grateful.

  Before hanging up the phone, Mayor Huang said: "Then Cheng, let's stop here first. Guoyang, after you confirm the office, please call me. Don't be shy."

   "Okay, definitely, thank you Mayor Huang for your concern!" Zhao Guoyang thanked him sincerely.

  Huang Zhigang laughed and said, "Thank you for what I'm doing. I'm investing ahead of time. I'm betting that Guoyang, Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company, you, can soar into the sky in the future."

   "At that time, you, an 'entrepreneur', should have a sense of responsibility and repay us Songjiang well..."

   After finishing the call with Mayor Huang, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help clapping his hands with joy on his face.

  With the promise of this boss, as long as the house is selected, the follow-up matters should be resolved soon.

   I just don’t know if Director Zhong Bo has found a suitable one for me, so I need to make a phone call and ask.

  Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang immediately picked up the phone and dialed Director Zhong's office.

   After a while, other staff members of the General Management Department got through the call and replied that Director Zhong had gone out with the chairman and hadn’t returned yet.

  When the staff said this, Zhao Guoyang realized that Director Zhong should have accompanied Chairman Mao in the morning, and also went to the airport to see off the inspection team of Daewoo Group.

   Zhao Guoyang didn't think much, and called Chairman Mao again.

  The phone was connected quickly, and Mao Zhichun's cheerful voice immediately reached Zhao Guoyang's ears.

   "Haha, Guoyang, I just wanted to call you! Do you know that Chairman Jin of Daewoo Group has agreed in principle to cooperate with our Songqi Group."

"When he was discussing with me, he specifically mentioned your name, saying that he hoped that you would be able to participate in the next time we came to discuss cooperation in detail! Guoyang, then you must support this brother! "

   It can be heard that Chairman Mao attaches great importance to the cooperation with Daewoo Group.

  Zhao Guoyang immediately responded with a smile: "No problem, but according to Chairman Mao's orders!"

  Seeing that Zhao Guoyang agreed without hesitation, Mao Zhichun was overjoyed and said, "That's great, Guoyang. Then, my brother will rely entirely on you."

  After chatting with Chairman Mao for a few words, Zhao Guoyang explained his intention.

Hearing Zhao Guoyang say that he wanted to ask Director Zhong Bo about the location of his foreign trade company, Mao Zhichun immediately said: "Ah, this matter, Guoyang, wait a minute, I'll ask him now ..."

After a while, after Mao Zhichun learned about the situation, he replied: "Guoyang, Zhong Bo has already selected four places for you, and we are waiting for you to visit together when you have time. Where are you now? Or I will Let Zhong Bo go find you!"

   Chairman Mao and Zhao Guoyang were not very polite, and immediately reported their location.

  After hearing this, Mao Zhichun simply said: "Well, Guoyang, you can wait at the guest house of the Mechanical and Electronic Industry Bureau, and Zhong Bo will go to find you immediately."

   "Besides, when you finish your work, I'll clean up the dust for you at night. Brothers, we won't go home until we're drunk!"

  As soon as he heard that he was going to drink again, Zhao Guoyang showed a bitter look on his face. Before he had time to refuse, Mao Zhichun had already died.

   "No, next time I must buy some hangover medicine and keep it with me..." Putting the phone aside, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help muttering.

  …

  Lujiazui Financial District is located in the Lujiazui area of ​​Pudong, SJ City.

  In 1990, after the country officially set the tone of developing and opening up Pudong, the SJ municipal government established the only national-level development zone named after "finance and trade" in Pudong.

  After more than a year of development, Lujiazui Financial District has gradually become one of the most well-known place names in SJ City. Many international financial giants have successively opened branches here.

  Follow Zhong Bo's car to Lujiazui Financial District. Looking at the tall buildings rising from the ground in front of him, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help admiring secretly.

  After his rebirth, it was the first time he saw so many high-rise buildings in China. Even Yangcheng, an important town in the south, was a bit less interesting than the prosperity in front of him.

  Seeing that Zhao Guoyang was not moving forward, Zhong Bo beside him kindly introduced: "Researcher Zhao, you told me before that you want to choose a prosperous area as the foreign office of your foreign trade company."

   "I carefully selected two locations in Lujiazui and Puxi respectively. You can take a look at them and consider them."

   Zhao Guoyang clasped his hands together when he heard the words, thanked Director Zhong gratefully and said, "Director Zhong, I'm really sorry for your inconvenience. I don't need to look at the Puxi side. The Lujiazui financial district in front of me looks pretty good to me!"

  Zhong Bo nodded obediently, seemed to have remembered something, and said with embarrassment: "In terms of location, Lujiazui Financial District must be better than Puxi. It's just... the land price is more than a notch higher."

  Zhao Guoyang said with a relieved smile: "Director Zhong, I don't think it's a big problem in terms of land price. As long as the location is good, there will be no problem."

  Zhong Bo hesitated for a moment, but still reminded: "Researcher Zhao, the prices of the two office buildings I helped you find are really not cheap."

   "If you buy a whole building, it will cost at least 10 to 20 million yuan. But if you rent it, it's not very cost-effective. Look..."

   "Uh, ten to twenty million..."

  Zhao Guoyang paused for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the era before his rebirth, which had soared to the suffocating housing prices in SJ.

   Ten to twenty million yuan, in the era before I was reborn, probably I could only buy a high-rise of 100 square meters in the downtown area.

   But now, you can buy a whole building, where to go, isn't it easy to make a choice?

  Over there, Zhong Bo thought that the price he quoted had frightened Researcher Zhao, so he was a little embarrassed, but what Zhao Guoyang said next left him stunned.
