Chapter 196, Bidding Meeting
At the beginning of the Lunar New Year, every household put up a new chūn couplet, and people get up early, put on the most beautiful clothes, dress up neatly, and go out to visit relatives and friends, and wish each other good luck in the coming year
If it is in the countryside, you can hear the sound of firecrackers early in the morning, which is called "opening the door cannon battle" in the custom, which means that after the sound of opening the door and firecrackers, it is broken red all over the ground, and the brocade is called "full house"
When I got up early in the morning, I saw firecrackers everywhere, red paper, and a joyful atmosphere everywhere, but in Dongning City, it is obvious that you can't see this kind of scene, because fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited in the city, and you can see the red sè color couplets posted on the street by the Chemical Bureau
Although it is customary to close the market for three days from the beginning of the Chinese New Year's Eve to the second day of the new year, there are still many merchants who open their doors early to welcome the latest weather of the new year
For Dongning City, the first day of the Lunar New Year will be a moment to determine the history of Dongning, and the beginning of the bidding meeting means that the construction of the new economic zone has officially begun
The joint supervision team composed of development and reform, supervision, construction, transportation, water conservancy, audit and other departments arrived at the Donghua Hotel early, and the venue here is the Donghua Hotel, which is specially arranged for the bidding meeting, this five-star hotel is the most powerful of the four companies in the bidding, a subsidiary of Jiujiang Group
It is said that the chairman and general manager of Jiujiang Group will attend the bidding meeting, and the entire new economic zone project involves a huge amount of construction funds of 200 billion yuan, which is not something that any group can easily swallow
Even the working capital of Jiujiang Group is only tens of billions, and it is impossible to directly take out all the tens of billions for this bidding, in fact, what each company wants is the right to build and the right to develop land, with these rights, after the evaluation, it is very easy to get a bank loan
For banks, they don't have much money, more liquidity, more loans, and huge sums of money to these companies, especially real estate companies, are definitely profitable and loss-free transactions
In fact, the bank has no money in the first place, but the people put their money in the bank, and the bank will naturally have money, so there is such a strange and ironic cycle
The most ironic thing is that the people can't afford to buy the high-priced house, and in the end they can only take out the money in the bank to get a mortgage from the bank, and the bank loan to the developer to pay for the house, and the people finally have to charge interest when they repay the money from the bank
Under this cycle, a new era of noun house slaves appeared
The poor people don't know that under this kind of rolling profits, empty speculation and investment not only did not activate the economy at all, but turned the economy into a pool of stagnant water, what could have been bought with a dollar could only be bought for ten yuan, and in the end it was the common people who paid a heavy price
After all, developers and banks have made a lot of money, and even if inflation is inflated, the money in their hands is still enough for them to live very well, and live a life that is extremely enviable, even greedy
The atmosphere of the whole bidding meeting is very lively, the venue is often Dongning City and even Jiangnan Province dignitaries and nobles come and go, one by one to talk to each other, the front row of the meeting zhōng yāng arranged the seat of the municipal party committee, it is said that this time the municipal party committee secretary Yu and Mayor Yang will come to the venue in person, because they are the bidder for the construction of the new economic zone
There is the commissioner from the Development and Reform Commission, and neither Secretary Yu nor Mayor Yang can interfere with the results of this bid, and the entire bidding Quartet has also been reviewed
Soon, the people of Jiujiang Group came to the venue, and the leader was an old man with a cane in his old age, don't look at his appearance if he doesn't pass through the wind, but there is a bit of yīn 鸷 sè between his eyebrows, his eyes are blazing, and he looks like he is very sane
As soon as the old man came, all the people present stood up, with smiles and compliments on their faces, and they all greeted the old man with "Happy New Year".
It's just that the old man just nodded, and the one who accompanied him was a young man, who looked only in his twenties, but his face was full of rebelliousness, as if no one looked down on him, followed by a large group of bodyguards and staff, and walked into the place of Jiujiang Group in the venue
The old man's name is Xie Chang, don't look at this ordinary name, but behind it represents the entire Jiujiang Group, with the title of the king of aluminum and private shipbuilding, Jiujiang Group is a bag of all walks of life, but there are few real estate industries, the reason why this time appears here seems to be that this old man wants to lead his Jiujiang Group into the real estate industry
The young man next to the old man is Xie Chang's only son, and Xie Chang himself is a deputy to the Provincial People's Congress and a member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and has a close relationship with zhōng yāng, so this time Xie Chang came here in person, and everyone felt that Jiujiang Group was bound to win
Subsequently, Wansheng Group and Menglong Group both rushed to Wei Ziyun, and they also came with their son Wei Dongkui, still so high-spirited, it was the peak time
And Ye Menglong is dressed in a gorgeous costume, full of luxury, dazzling but elegant
Wei Ziyun and Ye Menglong gave Xie Chang a farewell, and after that, they each returned to their own company's place, and the entire bidding was carried out under the watchful eyes of major media at home and abroad, and many media will broadcast live to highlight the openness and transparency of the bidding, and most of the reporters have come to their positions except for the rostrum
At about half past eight, Secretary Yu and Mayor Yang of the Municipal Party Committee came briefly, led by Secretary Yu, first went to Xie Chang's side to pay a New Year's greeting to Xie Chang, and then went to Wei Ziyun and Ye Menglong to talk to them, and then they sat down, and the bidding meeting was scheduled to start at nine o'clock
There are a total of five large projects in the construction of the new economic zone, and there are more than 30 small projects, but everyone knows that the most important projects are the previous five, because one of them is more than 30 small projects
These five major projects are tantamount to the core projects in the new economic zone, and this project will be used as the core of the entire Dongning City's economy to attract investment, and whoever gets the development and construction rights of this place is tantamount to controlling the cornucopia of Dongning City after rì
The venue was still full of discussions, and in the last ten minutes, no one found any trace of the dark horse company of Oriental International, and some people even felt that Oriental International may be timid, even if they came to compare with the other three giants, it was the difference between ants and elephants, and all the media's eyes were focused on the three giants, as for Oriental International, a small company that had just been established, at most, it was just a dragonfly and a little bit of water, and it would not cause any changes in the entire lake at all
But no one would have thought that there was a word for the butterfly effect: a butterfly in the Amazon rainforest in South America could cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later
The meeting was chaired by Director Jiang of the New Economic Zone Construction Planning Office after recovering from his injury, and although Director Jiang has now been removed from his post as deputy director of the Education Bureau, it has not affected his future
He walked to the rostrum, looked at the time, and saw that there was only the last minute left, but he didn't see anyone from Oriental International Co., Ltd. coming, so he glanced at Mayor Yang and Secretary Yu, and after both of them nodded, Director Jiang said: "Welcome to the bidding meeting for the construction of the new economic zone in Dongning City, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, on behalf of the municipal party committee and the city, I would like to give a New Year's greeting to the people of the city and everyone here."
Saying that, Director Jiang bowed and saluted, so the applause suddenly sounded like thunder, Director Jiang raised his hand, and after the applause ended, he said: "Now I announce that the bidding meeting for the construction of the new economic zone is officially opened."
Before he could say the first word, a voice suddenly came: "Slow"
Then everyone looked at this person, and all the focus was on this person, and none of them knew it, so someone still recognized the two people who came
"Isn't this the special teacher who was dismissed by the Ministry of Education, why did he come to the bidding meeting," the reporters discussed, but gave the camera to Canglong and the cold woman behind him
The big names and celebrities present frowned, Director Jiang's face changed on the rostrum, and he knew that it would be absolutely no good for this guy to come, but he still smiled: "This gentleman's bidding will have strict security requirements, do you have documents?"
"Documents" Canglong didn't say anything, but walked towards the seat of the president of Oriental International, and sat down with a big grin
So there was an uproar of speculation at the venue: "Could he be the president of Orient International?"
"There is a possibility of this," guessed the person at the venue
At this time, Ye Menglong and Wei Ziyun both looked at Canglong who was sitting in the position of president of Oriental International at the same time, one was a matter of course, and the other was frowning
"Why did Teacher Cang come here" Wei Dongkui, who was sitting next to his father, frowned
As for Secretary Yu who was sitting in front of her, her face was cold, she knew very well that Canglong would definitely not have anything good when she came here, after all, she prevented Yu Xue from being with Canglong, maybe he wanted to prove something, but what did he use to prove it, Secretary Yu's heart was relieved again
Without Director Jiang saying anything, he walked to Canglong and Heiman, saluted, and then said, "Sir, please show your ID"
Canglong ignored him, but Hei Man, who was sitting next to him, took out the document with the words of the president of Orient International Co., Ltd. clearly written on it, Wu Jǐng Baoquan had some questions: "This document does not match me, please leave"
"We just bought this Oriental International, and all the procedures have been completed," Heiman took out a pile of materials and handed it to Wu Jǐng
Wu jǐng saluted, and then took it to verify, and at this time, the people around heard Heiman's words, and said in their hearts, this Oriental International is really here to join in the fun, and the bidding has not yet started, and the president has been changed
But soon, the people of the municipal party committee and Director Jiang got the answer, and all of Canglong's materials were legal, and according to the procedure, the current president of Orient International could participate in the bidding
