Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

After the dinner, Tang Shaoying and Zhang Maocai went to a separate lounge to negotiate behind closed doors.

Zhang Maocai smiled and said, "Secretary Tang, you are too polite. I am a little flattered by such a grand welcome ceremony."

Tang Shaoying said: "Lv's Jade is famous all over the world. It is an honor for me to have the honor to invite Mr. Zhang. Please don't be polite to me, Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Maocai said with a half-smile: "Secretary Tang is indeed the master behind Mingyue Tower."

Tang Shaoying shook his head and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are joking. I am just a public servant serving the people. By chance, I knew that Mr. Zhang was interested in visiting East Guangdong Province to investigate investment, so I made some preparations. I hope Mr. Zhang will be satisfied with our preparations."

His words were flawless. Even if it was just him and Zhang Maocai, Tang Shaoying would never admit his relationship with Mingyue Tower and Ji Ze Minglu.

Zhang Maocai smiled slightly. He was a businessman, and if he got entangled in this matter, it would easily arouse Tang Shaoying's vigilance.

Therefore, he could only accept this level of hints and put the topic of Mingyue Tower aside.

After a brief pause, Tang Shaoying asked with a smile, "Mr. Zhang came to Guangdong Province in person. I believe he has learned something about our situation, right?"

Zhang Maocai nodded and said, "That's true. Secretary Tang, why don't you guess again, what are we at Lu's Jade Industry interested in?"

Tang Shaoying said, "That's hard to guess, but since Mr. Zhang is interested, I'll just make a blind guess... The places with the best economic development in eastern Guangdong are the three special economic zones of Pengcheng, Zhucheng and Chaojiang, as well as the provincial capital of Yangcheng."

"In recent years, the development of Yangcheng, Pengcheng and Zhucheng has been relatively stable. If Lv's Jade Industry is interested in the southern market, it should have negotiated with the governments of these places or the province long ago. Since Mr. Zhang chose to come for inspection at this time, he must have taken a fancy to Chaojiang, a place with good feng shui for development."

Tang Shaoying changed the topic to the Chaojiang area in just a few words.

Zhang Maocai followed up his words and said, "I wonder if the provincial leaders think Chaojiang is worth investing in? If Lv's Jade Industry wants to invest, where should it start?"

Tang Shaoying pondered, "Chaojiang is one of the oldest special economic zones in my country. Due to various reasons, it has not performed very well. However, recently, a new group of leaders have been replaced in the three cities of Chaojiang, and they have gradually started to exert their strength. For example, this year, the Yangjiang transportation line that runs through the entire Chaojiang area is under construction. The Chaojiang area is also vigorously carrying out clan reform policies and cracking down on illegal smuggling activities. I think the future of the three cities of Chaojiang is very bright."

Zhang Maocai smiled and said, "I agree with Secretary Tang's point of view. You are indeed a leader in leading the development of eastern Guangdong. The people of eastern Guangdong are lucky to have a public servant like Secretary Tang."

Tang Shaoying smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are too kind. I have no virtue or ability. This is all due to the policy support given to Guangdong Province by the state, as well as the joint efforts of all the leaders and people in Guangdong. I am just an insignificant part of it."

Zhang Maocai smiled and ignored his high-sounding words: "You are right. The population and land area of ​​Chaojiang area have more potential than Pengcheng and Zhucheng. I think that Pengcheng and Zhucheng, backed by Xiangjiang and Haojiang, have achieved rapid development, but also have certain limitations. Chaojiang is different. It has a natural deep-water port. It has been a large trading port since ancient times. There are Chaojiang people all over the world, including many wealthy people in Southeast Asia, whose ancestral home is almost all in Chaojiang area."

"In the past, Chaojiang's social order and illegal smuggling activities were too rampant, which affected the business environment. As long as these issues are handled well, I think its potential will exceed everyone's imagination."

Tang Shaoying smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang has a far-sighted vision. If Chaojiang wants to develop, it cannot do without the support of large enterprises like Lv's Jade Industry. Both of us are mutually beneficial partners. I wonder how Mr. Zhang plans to enter Guangdong Province?"

After a pause, Tang Shaoying added: "On behalf of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, I can express to Mr. Zhang that we will fully support your company. Both the policy and the assistance will be unprecedented."

Zhang Maocai smiled and said, "Secretary Tang and I will just set the general tone. As for the details, someone will discuss them with the government later."

Tang Shaoying said, "That's right, but please forgive me, Mr. Zhang. I am talking to you on behalf of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government. We must clarify the investment direction of Lu's Jade Industry. I wonder how you plan to invest in Guangdong?"

Zhang Maocai said: "In fact, there were some disagreements within our company on this issue. After many rounds of discussions, we finally reached a consensus - Lv's Jade Industry is preparing to enter the market in eastern Guangdong Province through corporate mergers and acquisitions."

"Oh? Which company are you acquiring?" Tang Shaoying asked curiously.

Zhang Maocai smiled and said, "We haven't chosen a specific company yet. I would also like to hear Secretary Tang's opinion on this matter, because you should be very familiar with Chaojiang's situation, right?"

Tang Shaoying said awkwardly: "Mr. Zhang's words are a bit difficult for me. After all, corporate mergers and acquisitions are not trivial matters. The government can only provide services to enterprises, but it is not convenient to provide certain opinions and goals to enterprises."

Zhang Maocai sighed, "Then I can only go to Chaojiang City and have a good discussion with Secretary Liu Fusheng. We have dealt with each other several times in Fengliao Province before. In fact, I went to Guangdong Province for an inspection because Secretary Liu was here..."

When Zhang Maocai mentioned Liu Fusheng, Tang Shaoying couldn't help but frown slightly.

It seems that Zhang Maocai knows more than he thought. This might be a bit troublesome.

Tang Shaoying thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhang is indeed a very good businessman."

Zhang Maocai said, "Don't get me wrong. I'm just talking about the facts. After all, according to my investigation, Secretary Tang should know more about Chaojiang than Secretary Liu and can provide me with more practical help. That's why I came to you first instead of going to Chaojiang to find Secretary Liu first."

Tang Shaoying smiled and said, "I have worked in Guangdong Province for many years and have dealt with many excellent companies. Naturally, I am more familiar with the relationships. Secretary Liu has just taken office and many aspects have not been sorted out. In addition, the conditions provided by the province should be more superior."

Zhang Maocai nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I went to see Secretary Tang first. I hope Secretary Tang will give me some advice."

Tang Shaoying said: "I do have suggestions, but I also have to consider the ideas and interests of local ethnic enterprises in eastern Guangdong Province. I can't dampen their enthusiasm."

Zhang Maocai said: "We can discuss any conditions, including your personal conditions, and I will seriously consider them."

Tang Shaoying's words before were too cautious, so now Zhang Maocai can only take the initiative to look for "evidence".
