life in the sky

The price increase in Anjiang City is mainly due to the increase in food prices.In July last year, the weather in our country was changeable from south to north, and floods were more serious, which caused a large increase in the prices of vegetables, grains, and eggs. The price of fresh vegetables increased by 7, the price of grain increased by 22.3, and the price of poultry increased by 11.8, Especially in the first one or two months, the price of pork had a relatively large increase, and the increase in food prices contributed more than 4.1% to the new price increase factors.

Although the increase in Anjiang cpI is still under control, if this situation is allowed to continue, it will be very detrimental to Anjiang's economic development. Not only that, the three provinces of Central North, Central Plains and Shannan that Mu Guoxing has inspected now This problem has appeared in all, which shows that this problem is no longer a problem of one province and one city, but is universal in the whole country. We must resolutely stop this upward trend, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.

Generally speaking, the rise of cpI and ppI does not fit well with the work of the Regulatory Commission, and Mu Guoxing has no control over the price. However, strictly speaking, the rise of prices has a direct impact on the country's economic development. Mu Guoxing also has the right to intervene in this matter.But in this way, the scope of involvement will be wider, and Mu Guoxing will have to communicate with other members of the Politburo who are in charge of this work. To persuade these people to take action, they must obtain convincing materials.

In the evening, the welcome banquet was still the same, and there was an episode during the banquet. The former director of the National People's Congress, Wei Qiuxiang, who had retired, came uninvited, and his main purpose of coming here was to pay respects to Mu Guoxing. a glass of wine.

Wu Yipei realized that he had neglected this matter. In order to receive Mu Guoxing's visit to Anjiang this time, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee made a special meeting and made a resolution. In order to implement Mu Guoxing's requirements for simplicity, only four The current main leaders of the big team attended the welcome banquet tonight, but unexpectedly, Wei Qiuxiang was forgotten.

Wu Yipei also heard about the relationship between Wei Qiuxiang and Mu Guoxing. Before Mu Guoxing came to Anjiang, Wei Qiuxiang was closer to the then mayor He Yonglai, and it can be said that he was on the same line with He Yonglai. of.After Mu Guoxing came to Anjiang, he didn't know what method he used to pull Wei Qiuxiang over. Only then did he get the majority in the Standing Committee, he made He Yonglai miserable, and finally rolled back to the capital.

Since then, Wei Qiuxiang has leaned firmly towards Mu Guoxing. Later, Tai Haobo, then director of the Municipal People's Congress, was implicated by his son and was seriously ill in a fit of anger and was admitted to the hospital. Mu Guoxing used his relationship to operate Wei Qiuxiang became the director of the Municipal People's Congress and became a well-known deputy ministerial cadre.Last year, Wei Qiuxiang retired from the position of director of the Municipal People's Congress because of his age, and gradually faded out of Anjiang's political arena.

Wu Yipei is also very smart. Although he doesn't know the inside story, he can guess that Wei Qiuxiang is not from Mu Guoxing's faction, and he is just a pawn in Mu Guoxing's hand. Guoxing just took advantage of it skillfully, so it can be seen that it is very common to take advantage of the situation in the officialdom.

Wei Qiuxiang only toasted Mu Guoxing with a glass of wine, chatted briefly, expressed his gratitude, and left angrily without looking at Wu Yipei and others.To express his dissatisfaction in this way, let the current leaders of the four major teams take a look. He is from Mu Guoxing's side, and they should be more polite to him in the future.

This old man is really interesting, but his expression is useless to Wu Yipei, one is a person who is used by Mu Guoxing, and the other is Mu Guoxing's heartfelt old subordinate, besides, Wu Yipei is the current secretary of the municipal party committee, if people just ignore him, what can Wei Qiuxiang do?Of course, Wu Yipei is not such a small-hearted person, and Wei Qiuxiang should be given the same treatment. Anyway, under the leadership of Mu Guoxing, Wei Qiuxiang still did some work back then of.

Song Jingshan also kept a low profile at the banquet. After toasting Mu Guoxing, Wu Yipei, and Hao Bode each with a glass of wine, he returned to his table.

Seeing this situation, Mu Guoxing also sighed secretly. It seems that the future No. [-] son is still very knowledgeable about current affairs, and can clearly distinguish the rules that should be followed in the officialdom.It is said that the environment can change people, this sentence is not false at all.

In the suite where Mu Guoxing stayed, Wu Yipei and Hao Bode were present at the same time, which is also a custom in official circles.After the welcome banquet is over, the leaders always have to meet the local first and second leaders. Apart from a reason of etiquette, they also want to convey a message to others, that is, the superior leaders still trust and value the first and second leaders.

"Comrade Yunpei, Comrade Bird, I heard from you in your report today that the prices in Anjiang have risen rapidly. Now this situation has occurred in the three provinces of Central North, Central Plains and Shannan. I attach great importance to this issue. Today, let’s discuss at will, behind the rise in prices, besides the international and domestic environment, are there other reasons, such as human factors?”

Mu Guoxing asked this question for a very purposeful purpose. He knew that these entrepreneurs in Anjiang, although it is a bit too much to describe them as rich as a country, but it is very appropriate to describe them as wealthy.Hundreds of billions of funds are not a problem at all in their hands.The last time Wu Yipei reported to Mu Guoxing when he came to Beijing, the main issue that the Anjiang Municipal Party Committee is considering now is how to guide the entrepreneurs in Anjiang City to invest.

The actual situation in China now is that all walks of life are advancing from the state and retreating from the private sector. State-owned enterprises not only monopolize a large number of industries, but also gradually form monopoly in some industries with investment prospects.If the funds in the hands of these entrepreneurs in Anjiang are not properly guided, once they invest in the necessities of life industry and control it to form a monopoly, it will be terrible!

VIP 420 [-] Chapter [-] The result of monopoly (seeking flowers at the fifth watch)

Wu Yipei and Hubbard looked at each other.At the same time, I thought that this young and old leader is really too powerful, and he can see the essence of the problem at a glance.The current price increase of edible oil is the result of the monopoly of Anjiang entrepreneurs.

There are three big consortiums in Anjiang. They are the Sanhua Enterprise Group led by the chairman of the chamber of commerce Zhu Mingxian, the second is the Nanyou Group led by the chairman of the Education Foundation Hua Nanyou, and the other is the one that has never been seen. 6 Group.These three big consortiums are comparable in terms of financial strength, and each has its own merits.They all have the support of overseas big Chinese business groups, and their funds are very strong.

Businessmen are profit-seeking, and know how to seek the protection of power. At that time, the heads of the three major financial groups tried their best to get close to Mu Guoxing. Zhu Mingxian and Lu Hankai, the head of the Lu Group, once wanted to use money and beauty salad Mu Guoxing went into the water, but after they got to know Mu Guoxing's wife, Zhong Ling, and Zhong Ling's background, they gave up this plan.Mrs. Mu Guoxing had a lot of money to use as firewood, and Zhong Ling was as beautiful as a fairy. No matter what, Mu Guoxing would not look down on the little money in their hands and the vulgar fans they sent.

Later, the poisoning case of Sanhua Drink occurred which shocked the whole country. In order to protect the enterprises in this city and restore a fair competition environment in the market, Mu Guoxing instructed the public security department to decisively intervene in the investigation of this case.Zhu Mingxian also got acquainted with Mu Guoxing because of this, and with the help of Mu Guoxing, he defeated the malicious competitor in one fell swoop, and brought the poisoner to justice.

Taking advantage of this favorable opportunity, Sanhua Group carried out a large-scale expansion accordingly, enabling Sanhua Beverage to occupy 70.00% of the domestic beverage market.At the same time, with the support of Mu Guoxing, Sanhua Group has gone abroad. After years of hard work, it has now faintly become a giant in the beverage industry on par with Coca-Cola in the United States. It is praised by people as Coca-Cola in the United States and Sanhua in China.

The Sanhua Group led by Zhu Mingxian has also made great contributions to the economic development of Anjiang City. The annual tax paid by one company accounts for 20.00% of Anjiang City's fiscal revenue. Later, Mu Guoxing and Zhu Mingxian became good friends because of this. .

The acquaintance between Hua Nanyou and Mu Guoxing is very dramatic, and it can also be said that the friendship between the two is a result of fighting.Once Mu Guoxing's five wives went to a resort for leisure, and Lei Lei was beaten and scolded by Hua Nanyou's wife for her husband's lover. His wife was detained by the police for this reason.

In order to get his wife back, Hua Nanyou entrusted someone to intercede with Mu Guoxing. Under Mu Guoxing's suggestion, he took the lead in establishing an education foundation and made great contributions to the education of Anjiang City. As a result, Nanyou became involved with Mu Guoxing, and under Mu Guoxing's proposal, he became the vice chairman of the Anjiang CPPCC.

When Mu Guoxing was constructing the five major projects in Anjiang City, Zhu Mingxian and Hua Nanyou actively invested in the shares, which further shortened the relationship with Mu Guoxing, and the two of them also made a lot of profits from this investment in the shares .

Later, Mu Guoxing went to Guangnan. In order to speed up the pace of economic construction in Guangnan, he led a team back to Anjiang to attract investment as the governor of Guangnan.Zhu Mingxian and Hua Nanyou, relying on their businessman's keen sense of smell, realized that Guangnan's investment attraction project contained huge business opportunities. The two largest investment attraction projects in Guangnan.

After the completion of these two projects, the economic benefits created are very considerable, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as having a lot of money. Hua Nanyou and Zhu Mingxian also made a lot of money as a result.

The Lu Group under the control of Lu Hankai lost in both competitions. The main reason was the obstruction of Nanyou Group and Sanhua Group. Everyone wanted to gain greater benefits in this business competition. , one more person will have to share an extra piece, which is the result that no one wants to see.Another reason is that Lu Hankai did not have the opportunity to get to know Mu Guoxing beforehand. You must know that Guangnan was mainly looking at Zhu Mingxian and Hua Nanyou at that time. .

Seeing that Sanhua Group and Nanyou Group have made so much money in the past few years, the shareholders of Lu Group are envious, accusing Lu Hankai of not getting acquainted with Mu Guoxing early, and losing two good investment opportunities for nothing .In order to give an explanation to the shareholders, and even more to win a sigh of relief, Lu Hankai naturally had to turn his attention to other investment fields when he could not get investment projects from Mu Guoxing. After a full market survey, Lu Hankai Kai now has huge business opportunities in the domestic edible oil market, and its development prospects are very broad.

At the same time that Sanhua Group and Nanyou Group's investment projects in Guangnan were booming, Lu's Group also began to merge and acquire major edible oil companies in China.With strong financial support, the acquisition of Lu's Group went smoothly. In less than two years, it acquired more than 6% of domestic edible oil production enterprises, forming a monopoly situation.

Once a monopoly is formed, it is determined by the nature of businessmen to do everything possible to pursue the maximum profit, and the rise in the price of edible oil and pork across the country is also the result of the manipulation of the Lu Group.The lives of ordinary people cannot be separated from edible oil, and the by-products of edible oil production enterprises, such as soybean meal and soybean cake, are the main raw materials for the production of feed, and the Liushi Group's control of edible oil production enterprises is equivalent to directly blocking the pockets of ordinary people. , He can take as much as he wants from the pockets of ordinary people, and no one can do anything about it.

"Mr. Zhang, you are right. According to what we have learned, the rise in the prices of cooking oil and pork is the result of manipulation by individual merchants in Anjiang City."

Mu Guoxing was taken aback, the previous speculation finally became a reality.Judging from the energy of Anjiang entrepreneurs, it is completely possible to do this. The investment project in Guangnan a few years ago has produced huge benefits, and the funds are gradually returning. If they do not find a place for investment, I don't know how much commotion these people will make.

"Oh? Do you all know what's going on?"

Hubbard smiled and said: "Chang, as you know, there are three major financial groups in Anjiang, namely Sanhua, Nanyou and Lushi. Among them, you know the heads of Sanhua and Nanyou. Their main investment direction now is Still in Guangnan, the problem lies with the Lu Group. When you were working in Anjiang, you once instructed entrepreneurs in Anjiang to prepare for the financial storm. The municipal party committee also issued a document at that time, requiring entrepreneurs to Seize this favorable opportunity to further realize the transformation of the enterprise."

Mu Guoxing nodded. When he was still the secretary of the municipal party committee in Anjiang, the municipal party committee indeed issued such a document, and when he talked to Zhu Mingxian once, he specifically asked him to play the role of the chamber of commerce and organize Businesses get ready.At that time, the entrepreneurs in Anjiang obeyed Mu Guoxing's advice, and finally did a lot of preparation work.

Could it be that the hidden danger of rising edible oil and pork prices was planted from that time?But it was impossible to think about it again. The entrepreneurs in Anjiang invested almost all their funds in the Guangnan project, and it was impossible for them to spend money on other projects.

"I understand this situation, but I just don't know how the Lu's Group got involved with the rising prices of cooking oil and pork."

Hao Bode was the executive deputy mayor at the time, so he knew these situations very well. After hearing Mu Guoxing's question, he said: "At that time, Anjiang's enterprises made preparations in advance to deal with the financial turmoil according to your instructions. A huge amount of funds was withdrawn, and the financial turmoil broke out in a short time, and enterprises in other places suffered huge losses, but the bosses in Anjiang escaped this catastrophe, and they admire you even more."

Hubbard took a sip of tea and then said: "Later, when you came to Anjiang to attract investment, these entrepreneurs happened to have a huge amount of money with nowhere to go. Seeing that the projects you brought had great potential for development, coupled with their trust in you, So I snatched up the items you brought."

VIP 420 Chapter [-] Being scolded by the common people (seeking flowers at the sixth watch)

Mu Guoxing smiled. This was indeed the case at that time. Hua Nanyou and Zhu Mingxian staged a fierce battle to become the investment boss that time.The five-day investment promotion work originally scheduled by the Guangnan Provincial Government was successfully completed in less than half a day. Not to mention other people, even Mu Guoxing himself was taken aback by the hot scene. The boss is so rich, grabbing projects is like grabbing money.

Some people say that the boss of Anjiang knows where there are business opportunities as long as he stops at the intersection of the street when he goes to a place. Although this sentence is a bit exaggerated, it also shows that the boss of Anjiang is really keen in doing business. sense of smell and forward vision.

The situation at that time was also caused by many reasons. The boss of Xian'anjiang had a large amount of funds escaped from the financial turmoil. They urgently needed to find a new investment point. You must know that money is used to make money and put it in the bank. It is impossible to explain to shareholders only relying on the pitiful interest in income.Secondly, the investment projects brought by Guangnan Province involved resources, energy and new technologies, and the investment in these areas was urgently needed by the country at that time, that is to say, it was supported by the country.

The most important point is that these bosses in Anjiang already have a kind of admiration for Mu Guoxing. They think that Mu Guoxing will not harm them, and there is absolutely no problem in following the old secretary, because Everything Mu Guoxing did was completely out of the interests of the country and the people, and everything he did in Anjiang also proved it.

Due to these reasons, it is understandable that the investment promotion projects in Guangnan Province were quickly sold out.If you were the second person, no matter how good the project you bring, you may not achieve such good results. The most important thing is the charm of personality, and Mu Guoxing has exactly this.

Hao Bode added: "At this time, Hua Nanyou and Zhu Mingxian also adopted some unfair competition methods, taking advantage of their semi-official positions, and tried every means to exclude Lu Hankai, not only the five major construction projects in Anjiang City, but also Guangnan They did not allow Lu Hankai to participate in the provincial investment promotion project. Due to various reasons, Hua Nanyou and Zhu Mingxian achieved their goals. According to our estimates at the time, the investment promotion projects in Guangnan Province at that time were only for the bosses of Anjiang City. 6% of the funds in the fund have found investment directions, and the remaining funds are still in their hands.”

Mu Guoxing understood. It seems that Hua Nanyou and Zhu Mingxian also took advantage of their good personal relationship with themselves to achieve this, and other cadres also saw that the relationship between Mu Guoxing and these two people was extraordinary, so they intentionally looking after them.From this aspect, it can be shown that it is still very difficult to truly be out of publicity. People are emotional animals, and sometimes favors are more important than anything else. The energy is also huge and cannot be stopped by anyone.

Wu Yipei said: "Lu Hankai was very disappointed at the time, and also received tremendous pressure from shareholders, and was almost dismissed from the position of president of the Lu Group. At this time, Lu Hankai fought for his own face even more. Then I turned my attention to other fields.”

Mu Guoxing nodded. At that time, Lu Hankai also called Mu Guoxing, wanting to have a good talk with him, but because Mu Guoxing was very busy at work at the time, he didn't see him, so he let him Going to the Director of the Guangnan Provincial Reform Commission may have disappointed Lu Hankai because of these reasons. If he had had a good talk with Lu Hankai at that time, he might not have made such a big fuss.

When Mu Guoxing was pondering here, he heard Wu Yipei say: "After the shareholders' meeting, Lu Hankai was negative for a while, but not long after, Lu Hankai went abroad and stayed abroad for two days at once. For more than a month. After returning home, he bought vegetable oil production enterprises in China. It took only a little more than two years to occupy 6% of the national vegetable oil market share. Since the first half of last year, Lu Hankai has completely monopolized The domestic vegetable oil production and sales market has used various means to increase the sales price of edible oil and by-products several times."

Wu Yipei smiled awkwardly, and said: "It's also because we didn't know enough about this matter, and we didn't expect him to cause such a big storm in the national market. When we realized that this problem was serious At the time of the revolution, the situation was somewhat out of our control. 6 Hankai now not only monopolizes the production of domestic vegetable oil, but also monopolizes the import of raw materials for vegetable oil production. Since they are all their production enterprises, they do not accept imported soybeans , the importer has no choice. Although the soybeans and rapeseeds produced by the farmers are purchased at the lowest purchase price in the country, they have the final say on when to collect them. I also personally approached Lu Hankai We talked about it a few times, but it didn't work out."

Mu Guoxing knew very well that Wu Yipei was telling the truth. Lu Hankai monopolized the production of domestic vegetable oil, which had a decisive influence on the production and sales of raw materials.When raw materials are imported from abroad, there must be a production company to accept them. If they don’t accept them, the importer has nothing to do. After a few times, the importer will never set foot in this field again.The soybeans and rapeseeds produced by the common people must also be sold to their family. Although the unified purchase price of the country is implemented, the family has the final say on when to harvest it. big difficulty.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Lu Group has formed a complete monopoly chain from raw material import, purchase, production and sales.As a large consortium with strong financial capabilities, Mu Guoxing has no doubt that the Lu Group is absolutely capable of doing this.

The problem now is that the Lu Group has formed a monopoly, but it is the common people in our country who suffer. They have to buy the edible oil and by-products they produce according to the price set by the Lu Group, which has caused a shortage of edible oil and pork. Price increased.As an official, if you can't control the people's food basket, you will be scolded by the people.If the increase in income cannot match the increase in cpI, the quality of life of ordinary people will inevitably be affected, and it may also affect social stability, which is very detrimental to the future development of the country.

"It seems that my research time in Anjiang will be extended. How about this, your municipal party committee and government will make arrangements and try to hold a symposium the day after tomorrow afternoon. I will meet and talk with entrepreneurs in Anjiang in person."

The investigation on the second day went smoothly. From Mu Guoxing's point of view, Anjiang City not only strictly implemented the national guidelines and policies in the development of real estate, but even some places did much better than the regulations of the Regulatory Commission.

"The Anjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government should sum up your experience in real estate development in a timely manner. Good flowers should not only be fragrant in your own home, but also allow all provinces and cities across the country to learn from your advanced experience."

This was Mu Guoxing's greatest compliment to the Anjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. The cadres who accompanied Mu Guoxing in the investigation knew that Mu Guoxing wanted to make Anjiang an advanced model.In front of us, there are negative examples in North Central Province. Once these positive and negative examples are grasped, the national real estate development will soon move towards a healthy development path. Mu Guoxing is really good at grasping the two ends and leading the middle. Maybe this is the The embodiment of people's ability to work.
