Chapter 251 Xiao Jinhua Makes Additional Investment! Luo Shanhe Takes Office as New Official!
"An additional investment of 5 billion? Are you sure?"
Zhao Ruilong stopped in his tracks, somewhat surprised.
"Of course!"
Xiao Jinhua looked serious and spoke with certainty.
"why?"
Zhao Ruilong frowned slightly and said with great curiosity:
“You had already promised to invest 5 billion, and now you’re adding another 5 billion.”
"Ten billion, Mr. Xiao! Even in twenty years, that's still a considerable sum!"
"You wouldn't just impulsively decide to invest an additional 5 billion yuan just because you test drove for more than an hour and visited various laboratories, would you?"
"Moreover, you are a financial genius who has obtained a master's degree in computer science from Yenching University. You should know very well that it will cost a lot of money to build a good car."
"Even if you succeed, you still need to spend a lot of money to build production lines, construct supply chains, and create sales and after-sales systems before you can finally start selling cars."
"Besides, selling just one car model is definitely not enough. We also need to invest in the research and development of many other models, which means it will take a long time to break even and make a profit. Are you sure you can afford to wait that long?"
Xiao Jinhua turned around and glanced at the others.
The group wisely stopped in their tracks.
Once they were on the sightseeing bus, Xiao Jinhua turned his back to the others and explained to Zhao Ruilong:
"Mr. Zhao, let me state my conclusion first!"
"I can afford to wait, and the additional investment of 5 billion is not an impulsive decision; it is the result of careful consideration."
"In addition, I also studied science and engineering, and I know that the more advanced the industrial product, the more rigorous and meticulous it needs to be."
"I am also well aware that with the continuous advancement of electronic information technology, the technological level of future cars will become better and better, and they may even be updated and replaced as quickly as electronic products."
"Therefore, in the initial stage, a lot of human, material and financial resources are needed to lay a solid foundation in all aspects, so that new technologies, new materials and new processes can be quickly utilized to complete updates and iterations and ensure continued leadership."
Zhao Ruilong took out a cigarette and handed one to Xiao Jinhua.
"and then?"
Xiao Jinhua lit Zhao Ruilong's cigarette first, then lit one for himself.
Looking at the test vehicles charging under the awning across the street, he said leisurely:
"Before I explain why I'm making additional investments, let me first explain why I promised to invest 5 billion yuan in Tianhai after only a short conversation with you!"
"Actually, we had never met before coming to Tianhai. I don't know you, Mr. Zhao, but with my family background, education, and experience, do you think I don't know about our Dragon Country?"
"In the past few decades, what has our Dragon Country failed to accomplish after being determined to do it? Even when we were poor and destitute, we still tightened our belts and built the atomic bomb, didn't we?"
"Since the distinguished Qian Lao had long ago proposed to take the new energy vehicle route in light of our own national conditions and the future development of the industry, so as to achieve a leapfrog development over the West."
"The top leadership's support for Handong to vigorously develop a high-quality economy, promote the strategy of military-civilian integration, and vigorously develop new energy vehicles has become the will of the nation!"
"The national treasury is not sufficient to make large-scale investments, but since you, Mr. Zhao, have both money and ideas, let all the relevant units follow your command. This can be considered as supporting your development of new energy vehicles from another perspective."
"Once the cars are manufactured and our country becomes richer, we will definitely introduce various policies to support them, such as reducing or exempting purchase tax for people who buy cars, providing subsidies for car manufacturers that produce new energy vehicles that meet the standards, and providing subsidies for installing charging piles, etc."
"Therefore I am very confident that although our automobile industry is lagging behind the West and the automobile market is not very large, I believe that under the strong impetus of the national will, the new energy vehicle industry will inevitably flourish and rise rapidly in the future."
"Handong, which is vigorously developing a high-quality economy and a strategy of military-civilian integration, has itself provided fertile ground for the development of the new energy vehicle industry. Mr. Zhao, you have a strong background and forward-thinking ideas. I would like to get involved in the industry in advance so that I can share the dividends in the future. Of course, the best option would be to cooperate with you!"
Zhao Ruilong nodded silently.
A graduate of Yenching University with two master's degrees is indeed different; his thinking is clear and his vision is unique.
Moreover, he comes from a very powerful family; his grandfather was once the deputy director of the finance department, which naturally gave him a keen sense of smell and access to information.
Since they know that vigorously developing new energy vehicles is an important national strategy, then cooperating with him, the heir of Handong, is the best choice.
The earlier and larger the investment, the more you can share in the development dividends and earn in the future.
Call ~
Xiao Jinhua exhaled a long puff of smoke.
"As for 5 billion, that's already a lot. Why would I want to invest another 5 billion?"
"Of course it's because I came here today. I personally test drove it for more than an hour and saw with my own eyes that you are really dedicated to building cars."
Where there's a will, there's a way! This world is never short of smart and capable people, but it is very rare to find people who are down-to-earth and do things carefully and meticulously!
"I firmly believe that God is fair, and that hard work will always pay off. You, Mr. Zhao, have invested so much money and put in so much effort, there's no reason why you shouldn't succeed!"
"Despite being blockaded by the West in various ways, our Dragon Country can still manufacture nuclear weapons, intercontinental ballistic missiles, and various satellites. If we really spare no expense and put in the hard work, how could we not even be able to manufacture civilian transportation like cars?"
"Therefore, I believe that with our sincere efforts and huge investments, the new energy vehicles we develop will definitely succeed, and will certainly lead the world in technology, disrupting the global automobile consumer market. It's only a matter of time!"
"Moreover, Mr. Zhao, as Zhao Shuji's beloved son, you dare to invest continuously and provide painstaking guidance. My family background and wealth are not as good as yours, so what reason do I have not to increase my investment and do my part?"
Zhao Ruilong smiled without saying a word and nodded silently.
He couldn't help but think to himself.
Xiao Jinhua is indeed quite capable to have become the undisputed richest man in China.
With talent and a privileged background, he already surpasses many others.
They also possess the decisiveness to act on impulse, which makes them even more outstanding than ordinary people.
but……
Whether it's 5 billion or 10 billion.
Zhao Ruilong didn't care how much money Xiao Jinhua had invested.
What I care about most is his attitude of supporting the development of domestically produced new energy vehicles.
After all, Xiao Jinhua represents not only himself and his Xiao family, but also a large group of people in Yanjing.
Zhao Ruilong never thought about how much money he wanted to make.
What he cares about is whether he can unite more forces.
So that his father, Zhao Lichun, could improve, and he could change his own fate!
"Okay, it's a deal!"
……
Yanjing.
Ge Junshan left work early and went home.
As soon as I entered, I followed the sound straight to the kitchen.
"What about the mountains and rivers?"
"We should be there soon!"
Luo Chunxia, who was cooking, casually asked:
"Does the Organization Department really not plan to send someone to escort him to Handong?"
Upon hearing this, Ge Junshan became somewhat angry.
"According to custom, a vice minister should be sent to accompany him, but your brother said there was no need to make such a big deal out of it."
"Not only did he not allow anyone to see him off, but he also called Wu Chunlin in Handong and told him not to send anyone to pick him up at the airport. I have no idea what he was thinking."
Luo Chunxia scooped up the vegetables, plated them, and handed them to Ge Junshan.
"You know my brother's temper."
"He dislikes ostentation and is particularly averse to formalism."
Ge Junshan let out a heavy, cold snort.
Is this formalism?
"He's going to Handong to serve as the censor and secretary."
"Such an important position and such a high rank, it is only right that the Organization Department sends people to accompany him and that Handong Province sends people to pick him up at the airport!"
Luo Chunxia laughed as she washed the pot:
"But welcoming and seeing off guests isn't a written rule that's absolutely necessary!"
Glancing at her husband Ge Junshan, who was furious, Luo Chunxia quickly smiled and said:
"Okay, don't be angry. If he doesn't like it, don't force him."
"Furthermore, Handong Province is now making great efforts to change its work style."
"Many people know that civil servants in Handong are not only prohibited from using public funds for meals, but they are also prohibited from exchanging gifts or holding large banquets for happy occasions."
"Shanhe is going to Handong to serve as the Supervisor of the Imperial Secretariat. How can he not set an example? A simple reception without any extravagance is in line with his status!"
These words naturally left Ge Junshan speechless.
Because the entire province of Handong actively transformed its work style, earnestly practiced Party discipline and national laws, and fulfilled its mission of serving the people.
It is not only popular among ordinary people, but also recognized by many veteran comrades. It is an impeccable act of justice. Who would dare to stand up and say no?
As the top official in Handong, Zhao Lichun personally set an example.
Whether it's going to the grassroots level for inspections or visiting various units to check on their work.
They don't make a big show of it, there aren't huge crowds or a large convoy of vehicles.
Official receptions not only strictly prohibit alcohol consumption, but also practice frugality, never indulging in excessive eating and drinking, and never storing Moutai in mineral water bottles.
Under Zhao Lichun's exemplary leadership, the phenomena of using public funds for meals and private use of official vehicles in Handong Province have been greatly reduced, and public spending has decreased significantly.
Handong Province will eliminate waste, and the funds saved will be used to improve the salaries and benefits of teachers and civil servants, which has greatly enhanced everyone's work enthusiasm.
In addition, efforts have been made to continuously optimize the business environment, curb the overheated real estate market, attract and incubate high-tech enterprises, and vigorously support the development of high-end manufacturing...
Handong now presents a picture of 'political harmony and social stability'.
As the top leader, Zhao Lichun has now firmly secured his position as the top leader of Handong.
Ge Junshan arranged for people to secretly investigate in Handong.
It was discovered that many ordinary people spoke highly of Zhao Lichun.
What farmers praise most is that Zhao Lichun genuinely cares about the common people.
It not only abolished the agricultural tax that farmers had paid for more than two thousand years, but also continuously improved rural infrastructure.
Urban residents, on the other hand, believe that Zhao Lichun is truly capable of developing the economy and building infrastructure, enabling everyone to increase their income and become wealthy.
Not only has it continued to invest heavily in various infrastructure projects, but it has also optimized the business environment and supported the development of a large number of enterprises, making life more and more convenient for everyone and enabling them to earn more and more money.
Zhao Lichun has become a model of integrity and pragmatism in the hearts of the people of Handong.
When Luo Shanhe, the brother-in-law, went to take up his post in Handong, everything should indeed be kept simple.
This will leave a good first impression on Zhao Lichun, other members of the leadership team, and many other civil servants in Handong.
Otherwise, if one makes a big show of taking office and does so in a high-profile manner, wouldn't that go against the recent wave of changing work style in Handong Province?
Soon.
The food had just been set on the table when Luo Shanhe arrived.
Just as Ge Junshan had predicted, Luo Shanhe indeed traveled light.
There were no large or small bags, like when moving house, with lots of luggage prepared.
"Seriously, bro? You're only taking this little bit of luggage to Jingzhou?"
"This is just a small box; it can only hold a few changes of clothes and daily necessities, right?"
