Song Hongjun and Yang Haipeng didn't wake up until the afternoon, and asked Shao Zheng to drive to Meixi Town, his face was pale and he had not fully recovered.

However, Zhou Zhibai drank it directly, and returned to normal after sobering up.

Looking at Song Hongjun's panting appearance after taking two steps, Shen Huai asked with a smile: "Are you unable to attract people to drink in Hong Kong and Guangcheng, I didn't think you drank so heroically before?"

"Mr. Zhou drank violently yesterday, we are sacrificing our lives to accompany the gentleman, but it's a pity that you let the kid slip away early......" Song Hongjun said with a smile.

Although Song Hongjun is the second time he has returned to Donghua, many of Pengyue Group's entrepot trade business is currently going through Hong Kong, and Zhou Zhibai has traveled back and forth to Hong Kong many times during this period, and has drunk several times with Song Hongjun, and the two have become familiar with each other.

When Xiong Wenbin learned that Song Hongjun had sobered up, he also rushed over from the city party committee to join him; Shen Huai and Song Hongjun waited for Xiong Wenbin to come and join him at the construction site of the Zhuxi Bridge.

Song Hongjun came back to Meixi Town in early July, and it was only more than four months in the past.

In the past four months, the pile foundation work of the Zhuxi Bridge has been completed, and the bridge deck is being poured from both ends, the subgrade work of Zhuxi Avenue has also been completed, which can be used for vehicles to pass temporarily, and the widening and reconstruction project of the southern suburbs road on the west side of the Zhuxi Bridge has also been officially launched in early November.

In addition to the Zhou family's promotion behind the scenes, in order to better play the pulling effect of Meixi Town, in response to the instructions of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to adapt resources and give priority to the construction and development of the central town, Tangzha District has successively adjusted its planning after August, pulled out tens of millions of special funds, relocated and renovated along the southern suburban highway, improved the environment, and named it Zhuxi Avenue, intending to develop it into the main road of traffic in the southern part of Tangzha District.

Of course, at present, the biggest direct beneficiary is the Pengyue International Hotel, which is on the west side of the Zhuxi Bridge, which has been renovated from the former golf driving range. At the same time, the district also intends to re-regulate and reposition the area along Zhuxi Avenue as the core area of the current economic development of Tangzha District in the future.

On the south side of Zhuxi Avenue, the second phase of the Xinmei New Village project has also been completed and the delivery of the housing has begun, and the third phase of the project has completed the framework - the social commercial street between the second phase and the third phase of the construction group has also been paved, and the façade decoration of the storefront houses along the street is being done, and it will be put into use at the end of the year at the earliest, and the preliminary community commercial layout will be completed.

On the south side of Xinmei New Village, it is a concentrated residential area of Caijiaqiao. More than 600 villagers have been relocated to the first phase of the project, which is designed and constructed in strict accordance with the urban community, and the construction of the community neighborhood committee and service center, the second phase of the residential project and the second phase of the Caijiaqiao Primary School project have also begun.

The construction of the Nagisa Garden on the north side was also very fast, and in three months, the small western-style buildings with a unique style were erected, but the later decoration and garden construction required a longer time of water grinding, and it will generally be put into use after the completion of Zhuxi Avenue.

The town also invested money to re-dig Kaitang Street and build culvert bridges to connect the Pants River with Meixi Town, Hengtang River and other water systems, and clean up garbage, so that the former area environment of Meixi Old Town has been greatly improved, and it is no longer as dirty and messy as before.

Although the renovation of Meixi Old Town requires a larger amount of investment, and it can only be invested gradually, the improvement of the external environment has also made this building complex that has been preserved since the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China show the wind that was previously hidden by the dirty environment, so that people can imagine the prosperity and prosperity of Meixi Town in the early years because of the river.

Although the transformation of the entire town area of Meixi Town still needs a long period of time and a larger amount of capital investment, the southwest area already has the face of a new town, and the short time and fast construction made Song Hongjun, who is accustomed to seeing the world, also surprised.

Shen Huai's plan for Meixi Town breaks with the traditional pattern of township upgrading, including the Caijiaqiao concentrated residential area where the villagers are resettled, and the entire residential area along Zhuxi Avenue is limited to four storeys. Xinmei New Village and Caijiaqiao Community have reserved the construction land for the social park; between the river road and the east bank of the Meixi River, a depth of one to two hundred meters is reserved, and it is intended to be used to build a river park along the river in the future.

Zhuxi Avenue and Meihe Highway are the main roads, which are built with higher standards than the secondary urban roads, but the branch lines such as Lishe and Yanhe are limited by funds and can only be built according to the standards of the third-level highways, but they are all higher than the standards of the second-class highways, and the depth of the forest landscape on both sides of the road is built to ensure that the greening rate of the new town can reach a fairly high level.

From the main plant area of Meigang to the east, the southern section of Meihe Highway has been completed.

To the east of Meihe Highway, Hongji Lighting and the new Ziluo factory with an investment of 10 million, and the land to the south from the new Ziluo home textile factory is divided between Haiqing Electromechanical and Meixi Power Plant, and the construction site is in full swing.

The west side of Meihe Highway is reserved for the development of Meigang, and the industrial park can only be expanded to the east.

The construction of the Hetang and other branch roads to the east of the Meihe Highway has begun, and the demolition of the land to the east and the water circuit network and drainage and sewage works are being done at the same time.

In addition to the reserved area along the river, the next stage will be the fastest speed to sort out the plot, about 600 acres of land, has also completed the investment work, will have four enterprises into the construction of new factories.

These four companies have already started the preparatory work for the construction of the factory, and the construction of the plant will be started soon.

Speaking of which, Xiong Wenbin has not been to Meixi Town for more than four months, and now he can only sigh that only by personally walking through the field can he know how fast the development of Meixi Town is, and can he also know how much Shen Huai's construction plan for Meixi Town is ahead of other areas in Donghua City.

Although the Donghua Development Zone was established in 84 years and has been developed for 10 years this year, there are only about six or seven enterprises that can be introduced this year, and the scale of investment and construction is even worse than that of Meixi Town.

If there is any gap on the surface, it is that since the construction of the Meihe Highway in Meixi Town, Shen Huai insisted on the simultaneous construction of villagers' demolition and resettlement, land leveling, water and electricity network three-way projects, and drainage and sewage projects.

Almost at the same time as signing an agreement with Meixi Town, paying the land payment and supporting fees, the investor may directly obtain the land to build a new factory, which greatly reduces the preparation time.

Unlike government departments, investors pay more attention to efficiency in order to make money and keep up with the pace of the market.

The municipal development zone usually receives the payment of land from the investor before doing industrial supporting projects such as the three links, and it takes about half a year to a year to hand over the industrial construction land.

Recently, three of the four companies that decided to invest in Meixi Town to build factories are local private enterprises in Donghua, and they have been talking to the Municipal Development Zone about building factories before. Xiong Wenbin believes that the reason why they finally chose to invest in Meixi Town is that in addition to the higher efficiency of Meixi Town, another factor should be that they realize that Meixi Town's economic and social order is far better than other areas of Donghua City.

Investors pay attention to efficiency, pay attention to tax incentives, but pay more attention to economic and social order - Meixi Town under the governance of Shen Huai, the economic and social security is far better than other regions, and under the promotion of Shen Huai, Yexin Bank also supports the development of private enterprises in Meixi Town, providing preferential financial credit services, which naturally increases the attractiveness of Meixi Town to investors.

In the past few years, Donghua's economic order has been seriously damaged by Gao Xiaohu and Wang Ziliang, and the steel industry in Donghua City once had to scrape off a layer of oil for Wanhu Company, which not only made the city's steel mill operation into a dilemma, but also made the development of the entire steel industry chain in Donghua City come to a standstill.

The obvious change in the iron and steel industry in Donghua City is the beginning of the arrogance of Shen Huai to Meixi Town and the strict suppression of Gao Xiaohu by Meigang. Subsequently, not only the rise of Meigang, but also due to the severe suppression of Wanhu Company, the downstream steel trade also got rid of the control of Wanhu Company and regained its vitality.

With the convergence of Wanhu Company and Dai Lesheng's son Dai Yi expelled from Donghua after the Emperor case, the city's steel mill has even been able to recover considerable profitability this year under the condition of serious loss of key personnel to Meigang, making Donghua's steel industry usher in an obvious and rising development this year.

This is also one of the main reasons why Tan Qiping wants to promote the joint venture project with Fuji Steel, and Tan Qiping also wants to make Donghua's steel industry bigger and stronger, and form a pillar industry that will really promote Donghua's economic growth, which is also a shortcut to political achievements.

It's a pity that Fuji Steel is not too interested in cooperating with the city steel mill, Tan Qiping asked Meigang to take over the joint venture negotiations with Fuji Steel, but Shen Huai's performance is not very positive.

More than two months have passed, and the entire joint venture project does not seem to have made any progress, and if it drags on any longer, it is likely to be dragged out, so it is no wonder that Tan Qiping is a little anxious.

After seeing the equipment installation site of the freight terminal, Xiong Wenbin, accompanied by Shen Huai, and Song Hongjun went to the north side of the wharf and the reserved land for the development of Meigang Nantuo to inspect, and saw that this piece of land of about 600 acres was already doing the three-way project, so he knew how fast Shen Huai's efficiency was......

Xiong Wenbin also knew that it was necessary to ask Meigang about the progress of the negotiations between Meigang and Fuji Steel on behalf of Tan Qiping, otherwise Tan Qiping would not be able to explain there: "This land has started to do the three-way project early, and in the general direction, it is also making preliminary preparations according to the scale of the 600,000-ton electric furnace steel production line.

Shen Huai knew that Xiong Wenbin was an insider, and although Meigang had no specific project, he leveled this piece of land in the general direction of an electric furnace steel production line of 600 to 800,000 tons. In the final analysis, he is also saving time for development, as long as the funds are in place in the later stage, it can facilitate the new production line to be launched at the fastest speed, and there is no need to waste too much time for the preliminary preparations.

Listening to Xiong Wenbin's side knock on the side to ask about the negotiation with Fuji Steel, Shen Huai also knew that Tan Qiping was anxious, and said: "Fuji Steel has a lot of options for cooperation in China, and in several negotiations, we have sent insignificant figures to contact us, but the cooperation conditions mentioned are very harsh. Even if we make concessions now, we will be forced to make further concessions when Fuji Steel's real decision on the joint venture project comes forward. In this case, it is difficult for us to talk to them in depth. Because the district is also involved in the specific negotiation work, the specific situation should also be reported by the district to the city government......"

"What conditions does Fuji Steel propose?" Xiong Wenbin asked.

"Fuji Steel is not concerned with the operation of joint venture projects, but it is more concerned with the control of the upstream industrial chain. After seeing the construction scale and planning of the Meixi power plant and the freight terminal, they did have the intention of further discussing cooperation with Meigang, but they directly proposed to invest in the holding of the power plant and the terminal, and the electric furnace steel joint venture project required Meigang to contribute the main funds to be responsible for the construction - such a condition, Meigang could not accept, so it did not report to the city. Shen Huai said.

Xiong Wenbin has not given up his attention and research on the steel industry in recent years, and when Shen Huai mentioned these points, he quickly knew where the problem was.

The core of electric furnace steel investment is the power supply, the supply of raw materials, that is, the supply of scrap steel charges and the output of steel products in the future, which determine the most important cost and profit scale of the electric furnace steel project.

This is also the place where Shen Huai develops Meigang and is smarter than others in terms of industrial layout and farther than others.

It doesn't matter who holds the joint venture project of electric furnace steel production line, even if the joint venture project is controlled by the Japanese side, it doesn't matter, as long as the power plant and wharf are controlled in the hands of Meigang, Shen Huai can ensure that Meigang can draw enough profits from the joint venture project.

Fuji Steel can naturally see Meigang's cleverness in the industrial layout, and naturally wants to occupy the commanding heights, but Shen Huai obviously can't agree to the commanding heights at the front end of the industrial layout that he has worked so hard to complete and hand over to Fuji Steel's control.

However, Meigang does not agree to hand over the commanding heights of the industrial layout to Fuji Steel, so the entire joint venture project will not be attractive to Fuji Steel. On the contrary, Fuji Steel also needs to worry that Meigang will use the power plant and the terminal to clamp down on the joint venture project and absorb additional profits in the future.

"Lao Xiong, you are an insider, you should know that an industrial giant like Fuji Steel will inevitably pursue a stronger and more advantageous position when cooperating on projects, and it is unlikely that participating in the sharing of profits from joint venture projects will satisfy them......" Shen Huai knew that it was easy to persuade Xiong Wenbin, but he didn't know if Tan Qiping could listen to such a reason.
