Chapter 242: Bentley's Fall

After several days of investigation and negotiation, on October 4, Du Yuemei and her entourage returned to Xiangjiang. Flash Dance

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in Li Guangyu's office in Jiayi Building, Du Yuemei, Zhang Ziyu and Shane Wesley were reporting to Li Guangyu about their trip to the treasure island.

Du Yuemei said, "Li Sheng, Dean Sun Yunxuan asked me to come back and greet you on his behalf, and at the same time, I also invite you and the senior executives of our major groups under the Li family to visit Baodao, hoping to have more cooperation with our Li Group." ”

Li Guangyu said, "Yuemei, what is the specific situation of your discussions these days, and how does your group consider it?"

Du Yuemei began to report to Li Guangyu about the experience of Bentley Group in the past few days of negotiations with the government of Baodao.

As the seat of the government of the treasure island, Taipei's political status in the treasure island is obviously higher than that of other counties and cities, and it also has more advantages in this negotiation with Bentley.

When Du Yuemei was discussing with Taipei City, not only Mayor Wang Hui, but also Lin Guisheng, Speaker of the Taipei City Council and member of the Standing Committee of the Kuomintang Central Committee, also attended the meeting, hoping that Bentley Group could put its production base in Taipei, and also promised to give a series of preferential policies within the policy scope to help Bentley Group develop rapidly in Baodao.

Cheng Qiren, the mayor of Tainan City, led the leaders of some government departments to Taipei to discuss with Du Yuemei the issue of placing the Bentley Group's production base in Tainan, and at the same time made a promise to Du Yuemei and others that within the scope of the municipal government's policies, they would provide Bentley Group with preferential policies that they could provide.

Cheng Qiren learned that the speaker of the Taipei Assembly personally attended the negotiations with Du Yuemei and others, and was worried that his side would not have an advantage, so he went to the Executive Yuan to ask President Sun Yunxuan.

After Sun Yunxuan met with Cheng Qiren to understand his concerns, he said to Cheng Qiren: "Whether the Bentley Group places its production base in Taipei or your Tainan, our government will give the same preferential policies, so you don't have to worry about it."

Cheng Qiren said, "Dean, so I am much more relieved, you also know that my side is a traditional industry, now our treasure island is setting off a new industrial upgrading, Taipei is in the general trend to enter the electronics industry, this time there is no need to compete with us, we also hope that Bentley Group in Tainan to drive many of our industrial development." ”

Sun Yunxuan did not give any guarantee to Cheng Qiren, Sun Yunxuan respected the Bentley Group's own opinion on what choice Bentley made, and the Executive Yuan would not meddle in this matter, so as not to give a bad impression to the outside world.

Sun Yunxuan said, "On the issue of site selection for the construction of Bentley production base, our Executive Yuan fully respects their opinions, and if you want Bentley Group's production base to settle in Tainan, you need to negotiate with Bentley Group yourself." ”

When Cheng Qiren asked to see Sun Yunxuan, Lin Guisheng was also discussing with Wang Hui how to keep the Bentley Group's production base in Taipei.

Wang Hui said, "Speaker Lin, see if you can use your influence to get the president to support Bentley Group to settle in Taipei." ”

Lin Guisheng said, "Mayor Wang, I'm afraid it's useless this time, Dean Sun has already said to the government and the party, this time we must not interfere with the choice of the Bentley Group, this time we can only rely on the strength of your municipal government." ”

Wang Hui was still a little disappointed when he heard it, after all, Taipei has Lin Guisheng, a big man, who should have been very beneficial to Taipei City, but he didn't expect the dean to speak directly this time, it seems that this time it can only be a fair competition with Tainan.

Wang Hui said, "Speaker Lin, please work hard during this time, discuss with our government and Bentley Group, and try to place the Bentley Group's production base in Taipei." ”

Lin Guisheng replied, "Mayor Wang, as the Speaker of the Taipei City Council, I naturally hope that Taipei's economy will develop rapidly and the economic income of its citizens will increase. ”

Wang Hui is still very happy, after all, Lin Guisheng's status in the party is much higher than his own, and Wang Hui is already very satisfied with being able to support himself like this this time.

Wang Hui said, "Speaker Lin, our city government thanks you for your help to us. ”

Lin Guisheng said, "Mayor Wang, we can't just take care of Bentley, other actions can be carried out together to help us keep the Bentley production base in Taipei. ”

Wang Hui also knows what Lin Gui refers to, Taipei City is the location of the Treasure Island Company, the major group of the Li family, and Gu Zhengsheng, the vice president of the Jiayi Group, who is responsible for all the affairs of the Treasure Island, has also been working in Taipei, and they still have a lot of influence on the selection of the Li Group.

Wang Hui said, "Speaker Lin, before I came to you, I had already arranged for the deputy mayor to visit the general managers of the major branches of the Li Group, and at the same time, I also sent an invitation to Vice President Gu Zhengsheng, and I will have a banquet for him in the evening to discuss this issue with him. ”

Du Yuemei also received many invitations from people on Baodao, and they interceded for the governments of the two places, hoping that the Bentley production base could be settled in its area.

After hearing this, Li Guangyu said: "During this time, Baodao is really lively for you. So why did you choose Taipei instead of Tainan, which has a certain foundation? ”

Zhang Ziyu said, "Li Sheng, this is to take into account your opinion at the beginning, secondly, our Li Group Baodao company headquarters are basically in Taipei, our Bentley production base in Taipei is also conducive to the management of Li Group, at the same time, Taipei is the seat of the Baodao government after all, Bentley production base built here, can also improve Bentley's influence in Baodao." ”

Li Guangyu estimated that his own suggestion accounted for most of the factors, and the other reasons were secondary.

Li Guangyu said, "Yuemei, this time since we have negotiated with the treasure island, you will speed up the implementation of this matter, and strive to build the production base as soon as possible. ”

Du Yuemei herself also knows the situation in this regard, with the promotion of Xiangyu Group and Jiayi Group under the Li Group, and the assistance of Xinghong Sports Group in the United States, Jaguar's sales in North America have not only stopped the decline, but have now maintained growth for 3 consecutive months.

There are several major groups in Asia, and Li Guangyu himself uses his own company's cars in an all-round way, which makes Bentley and Jaguar have achieved a good market, especially Jaguar has become the official car of senior dignitaries in many Asian countries.

Bentley has also become the first choice of Chinese families, in recent months, Bentley Mulsanne's sales in Asia have exceeded Rolls-Royce's sales here, especially in Southeast Asia and the treasure island, Lisboa and Xiangjiang regions, many Chinese families buy new cars are Bentley, including the Thai royal family, they use Bentley as their special car.

Du Yuemei said, "Li Sheng, we will start construction of our production base as soon as possible, and strive to complete the production line of Baodao by the end of next year." ”

Li Guangyu said, "You can plan well, if there is anything that needs my help, just mention, we will provide assistance for Bentley's development in Asia." ”

Du Yuemei said, "Li Sheng, Bentley Group does not have much problem for the time being, and our profits in the past few months are still good, which is enough to support our base construction in Baodao and cooperation with FAW." ”
