Chapter 209: Walkers Without Borders 19
Chen Feng spent 12 days visiting more than 60 extremely poor villages in three impoverished counties. In this way, the charity trip to almost all the extremely poor villages in City A has finally ended.
On this day, Chen Feng took the team back to County B, which still belongs to the boundary of the Wuling Mountains, and in fact, the Wuling Mountains span four provinces, and Chen Feng wants to visit all those extremely poor villages within this range, at least for a month or two.
If it weren't for the fact that the team members he led were obviously physically exhausted and needed to take a break, Chen Feng would have hoped to continue the charity visit in this Wuling Mountain area as originally planned.
According to the original agreement with the mayor of City A, Chen Feng also notified him in advance. Therefore, by the time Chen Feng and the others came to the guest house in County B, the city leader of Mayor Li and his party were already waiting for him first. As soon as Chen Feng arrived, he would start the table immediately.
Mayor Li is only 48 years old this year, and he can be said to be in the prime of life as the mayor of a prefecture-level city at this age. From the conversation with him, I know that he does have some knowledge, some economic terms come out of his mouth, and he also talks about some of his governance ideas and policies, and he also has his own unique views on poverty alleviation. And he can barely be regarded as an alumnus of Chen Feng, because he was a working graduate student at Tunghai University more than ten years ago. And Chen Feng is a student at Tunghai University, which the whole world knows.
Therefore, Mayor Li took the initiative to inform them of the fact that they were alumni, as if the relationship between them was suddenly closer. Chen Feng felt sorry for this, and on the surface, he was also very polite and called him a senior brother for face. Immediately called this mayor Li Shi very happy, and immediately patted Xiong's breast and promised: "Senior brother." You can rest assured. Poverty alleviation projects that you have invested in in our city. We won't let you suffer. And it will definitely open the door for you to invest in factories that can take root here. ”
Although Chen Feng is also concerned about these poverty alleviation projects, he is not the main one, and he is most concerned about some construction projects directly constructed by his own Xingwang Group, especially the donated school buildings.
Therefore, since Mayor Li took the initiative to call him a brother, Chen Feng said directly and unceremoniously: "I invest in those poverty alleviation projects, and I can't make money." I don't really care about it or not. I am most concerned about the construction of the school buildings that I want to donate, and I hope that the construction company owned by my father will plan and design these projects and supervise the construction. I also hope that your local political axe will give us enough support in this matter. ”
After hearing this, Mayor Li asked tentatively, "Can we work with some of our local construction companies to build these projects?" ”
Chen Feng shook his head without hesitation and said, "To be honest, I only trust the construction quality of my father's company. Presumably, Mayor Li, you also know that the quality of some of our domestic buildings is really not very good. This includes the school buildings of some schools. Of course, this is due to the general environment, and it is not something that you and I can change, nor can it be corrected in a short period of time. So. I can only try to ensure the quality of the construction projects I donate. And undoubtedly, only my own home construction company can really put me at ease. ”
Mayor Li and other city leaders heard such straightforward words. are all slightly frowning, and they, the figures in the officialdom, can't listen to this kind of words that point directly at the times.
And Chen Feng's request seems reasonable, not to mention that Chen Feng also took out the money for these donations, but this is not the case in the actual environment. Even if it is Chen Feng's money, but since you have taken out a large piece of fat on their land, how can there be any reason for me and their local people to dip oil and water?
Since the construction project is on other people's land, it must be under the jurisdiction and supervision of the relevant departments on other people's land. And since they have accepted their local jurisdiction and supervision, how can there be any reason not to let some local construction companies join?
This is the logic of the thinking of the locals. And this is what Chen Feng has been worried about before. If a local construction company is involved, not to mention the cost, it may not be able to guarantee the quality of each project.
Therefore, it seems that Chen Feng's natural request has become very unreasonable in the hearts of these people. will even feel that Chen Feng is too arrogant and domineering, and there is no one in his eyes.
To sum it up in one sentence, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. Chen Feng did this, and he broke the rules a little. He didn't trust their local construction companies, which was tantamount to slapping them in the face.
Seeing Chen Feng's tough attitude, he was also a little unhappy in his heart, but he also knew very well that Chen Feng had the capital to be so arrogant and domineering. It's just that the strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake, even if he comes forward to help Chen Feng, but when it comes to the place below, he, the mayor, is not completely sure, and the people below will not mess around and not obstruct it.
Therefore, he really can't give this guarantee to Chen Feng. I could only smile bitterly and say, "Senior brother, to be honest, you have given me a problem." I won't hide it from you, your engineering projects, some of our local construction companies, not to mention the county, city, and province are also very concerned. On my way from the city this time, I also received a call from a provincial leader asking about some of your engineering projects in our city this time. For example, a factory, a road, or a school building that you plan to donate. So, my personal opinion is that I hope you can find the best qualified construction company from our province to work with. Of course, in terms of project quality, there is your own construction company to check, I believe there will be no problem. ”
Mayor Li's remarks are quite pertinent, and the information revealed in them is also relatively rich. Tell Chen Feng more clearly that some of the engineering projects he has set this time have been targeted by others early on, not only within their city, but also in the province.
Nowadays, many people with complex backgrounds are engaged in the contracting business of real estate and construction projects, because this is a very lucrative industry, and if you have a simple background, it is impossible to afford this bowl of rice. For example, Chen Feng's own Xingwang Group. The background is not simple. And now many so-called construction engineering companies are leather bag companies. Especially the kind that has the ability to contract the project in the first place.
One pack, two packs, three packs...... Subcontract layer by layer. Profits have been repeatedly reduced and compressed, and in the end, the specific package responsible for the construction of the package, the profit has been very meager, and it can even be said that if the quality and quantity of the project are really carried out in accordance with the relevant regulations, he will also post the money into it, and in order to make money, this last package in the specific construction of the project, cutting corners has become inevitable.
That's how a lot of tofu slag projects come about.
Although Chen Feng is not very clear about these Dao Dao inside. But it is also known. And those companies and people who have the ability to pack a bag are undoubtedly very energetic in the local area. If you offend these people, even if Chen Feng is not afraid, there will be trouble in the future. Chen Feng himself can't watch it all the time in the local area here.
Chen Feng understands this truth, but he really doesn't want to cheapen these local construction companies for his poverty alleviation and charity projects, and when it comes to specific construction, these local construction companies may not be able to guarantee the quality of the project 100%. Chen Feng's requirements for the quality of the project this time are very strict, especially the donated school buildings, and the quality of the project must be 100% guaranteed. Because these school buildings are directly related to the safety of children's lives in the future. Especially in the disaster area in the future, it is necessary to have strict requirements for the quality of the project. Not the slightest sloppiness.
And now City A is the first stop of his charity trip, and he must do a good job of this beginning. I can't open it casually. What's more, he had an estimate of this situation early on and was mentally prepared.
Therefore, Chen Feng's attitude on this point was very resolute, shaking his head and saying: "These engineering projects are originally my own, and it is normal for me to hand over these engineering projects to my own construction company." So, I'm not going to work with your local construction company on these projects. ”
Speaking of which, the faces of the big and small leaders present are not good-looking, and Chen Feng's attitude is really a little bit unpleasant.
But after a pause, Chen Feng continued: "Of course, although I will not give these projects to other construction companies, we will carry out the project construction in your local area, and we still need strong support from your local area." For example, various building materials, cement sand and gravel, reinforced concrete, our Xingwang Group can not go to the field to purchase, need the support of your local building materials company, but also in the specific construction personnel, we also hope that at that time from some of your local construction companies for paid loan. ”
Chen Feng put forward this idea, and immediately made the leaders and leaders in the seat smile on their faces. The building materials and construction personnel all need to be on their premises, which is also a big cake for their locality. It can even be regarded as a political achievement project of these local leaders.
Chen Feng can be regarded as sharing some of the benefits, but this is not a loss for Chen Feng's side, but a win-win situation. After all, if they carry out construction here at that time, whether it is manpower and material resources, the first choice is of course obtained from their locality. It is impossible to transport it from other places all the way. As long as the other party does not sit on the ground and start the price, the price is passable, of course, they give priority to the local one.
Chen Feng said it directly now, but spread out the matter and said, first of all, he didn't give the local face and threw out the meat and bones, and in the end, he was naturally the most powerful master in the local area. In the future, when they build these projects, there will naturally be no obstruction and trouble.
As a result, the leaders headed by Mayor Li were all very satisfied. Although they can't contract these projects with Xingwang Group, the benefits given by Chen Feng are also real, as long as there are benefits, and there are also benefits of meat, they have a good face on their side, and they can also give an explanation to the leaders above. It's a joy for all.
The atmosphere of the whole wine table was also lively and harmonious, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
Chen Feng really didn't want to deal with these officials more, but he couldn't understand that he wouldn't offend them by not giving them face. Therefore, Chen Feng quickly toasted to each of them, either Moutai or Wuliangye, and after two laps, there were few who could still sit safely. The head of Li Shi, who bore the brunt, and several main leaders were taken care of by Chen Feng on the wine table.
In this way, this banquet naturally cannot continue, and Chen Feng was able to get out early.
Early the next morning, Chen Feng naturally no longer paid attention to these city leaders, but politely asked the manager of the guest house to convey his thanks and farewell to them.
With the first on-site visit and mo-o in the prefecture-level city, Chen Feng's charity trip this time is gradually on the right track. He took his charity team to personally visit and investigate in front of him, to understand the situation in various places, and to carry out specific charity relief and poverty alleviation investment planning, while he followed the Yuhua Fund team, the Long Fund team, and the Huateng Food team to follow him to implement Chen Feng's various charitable assistance and poverty alleviation development.
During this period, because Chen Feng threw a large amount of money, in front of the good money boy, but also in front of the God of Wealth, from top to bottom, both officials and people everywhere showed unprecedented enthusiasm for him. Coupled with Chen Feng's own blessings, his charitable relief and poverty alleviation investment actions have been well carried out in various places.
In this way, Chen Feng spent more than 30 days to finally visit this large area of Wuling Mountain Area, which was to pick the poorest villages in this large area of mountainous areas to conduct field visits, and those villages that were not extremely poor, Chen Feng also omitted. Otherwise, if it were not for two or three months, it would not have been possible to complete all the poor villages in this large mountainous area.
At this point, Chen Feng's first regional itinerary for this charity trip is over. Chen Feng personally traveled through mountains and rivers for such a long time, but most of his entourage, most of them obviously lost weight one by one. Including Haruko Aoki, the upper ninja, who originally had some baby fat face, it was obviously a little shrunk. And Su Yuluo, the sister-in-law, successfully lost ten pounds, so that the original three-digit weight was reduced to double digits again.
Su Yuluo is still quite satisfied with this, but after such a long time, the wind and sun, and trekking in the wilderness, have caused some damage to her skin, although in Chen Feng's view, there is nothing from egg white to wheat color, but it is more popular in European and American countries, but Su Yuluo is distressed by this.
But she didn't want to give up following Chen Feng, her brother-in-law, on a charity trip, so she could only rub sunscreen on herself every day. But it doesn't seem to be working very well. (To be continued.) )
