Chapter 228: Secretly Crossing Chen Cang 3

Everything is going smoothly according to plan, and the fairy has called on all the contacts she can muster, from the central government to the city of Beijing, to Henan Province, to the selection of small towns, all kinds of procedures are handled quickly, relevant agreements are signed with government departments, population relocation is implemented, compensation is negotiated, large-scale land acquisitions are ...... By the end of April, the preliminary site selection and survey work had been completed, and the attitude of the competent authorities had been understood, and the government had no intention of interfering, so they quickly negotiated with the Henan provincial government, of course, the most important thing was to obtain the support of the local government from the policy point of view, and also to use the relationship of the central government to exert pressure on the provincial government. And the Henan Provincial Government is also very interested in this pie that fell from the sky, the fairy is a big consortium, and now it is going to buy land on a large scale in the province, no matter how stupid the people are, they also know what the rich fairy wants to do, and can lead the fairy's base camp to Henan, which is a big deal, and the benefits to Henan Province are absolutely limitless, so to speak, even if the fairy builds its headquarters in the desert, it will immediately become an oasis! There is no need for the fairy to mention any harsh conditions, the relevant persons in charge of the provincial government all nodded vigorously, and some flexible minds hurriedly contacted various companies for infrastructure construction, such as cement factories, brick and tile factories, etc., but these people have taken a step slowly, and some people have long been eyeing the profits of these infrastructure materials. The fairy is not greedy, but tries to keep the price of land down, and has signed some municipal management concessions with the government, and the rest is some of the relocated people, which are all helped by the government. Greedy is the West Star company, the fairy just put forward the planning goals, that is, some requirements, the specific construction and design are responsible for the West Star, and the project is said to be very huge, they acquired 18 cement factories in the nearby area, 45 brick and tile factories, and 36 stone factories and other infrastructure supplies in greater demand, this is not counted, they also rented a large area of land nearby, said to establish a demonstration forest farm, but who knows that they are just planting some ordinary saplings, so that the old farmers are distressed!

After a detailed selection by the experts of the Li family and Xixing, a piece of feng shui treasure land was finally selected as the place to settle in the fairy city (most of the work has nothing to do with the fairy). The whole area of Fairy City is distributed in a rectangle, consisting of a series of sand hills, including more than a dozen villages and a small town, about 65 kilometers away from the outer ring road of Zhengzhou City, about 50 kilometers away from Longhai Road, the main artery of the east-west railway, about 30 kilometers away from the Beijing-Guangzhou line (in the west of the Beijing-Guangzhou line), and no more than 40 kilometers away from the nearest airport, the transportation is quite convenient. In order to reduce the adverse impact of construction on people's lives as much as possible, Xixing first "invited" the aborigines into some satellite cities near Zhengzhou City on favorable terms, and promised to give priority to become residents of Fairy City, the first residents of the relocation began in May, and by the end of the year, all the aborigines had moved out of the construction site, for this alone, Xixing paid nearly 2 billion yuan. It's just that the impact of the war is too great, and few people have noticed the series of actions in the early stage, and even some experts who pay attention to Xixing's fiddling with Liu's real estate have also "turned a blind eye" to a series of large-scale land requisitions that took place in Henan at the same time, and even people nearby only think that this is the government's job creation! In the past few years, the government has built a large number of small and medium-sized cities, so that a large number of urban or rural residents have become urban residents. Of course, this is also the result of the fairy and Xixing's deliberate cover-up, the overall construction drawings of the construction site are rarely seen, and the place name of the construction site has been using the original name - Longyou Town, which is not compatible with the fairy at all, besides, the fairy has more important things to do.

But this kind of thing is not hidden after all, when people put their eyes back into social life, fairies naturally become the object of people's attention, after all, this company and the Li family behind it are too famous! People paid attention to the Li family, and this time it started with the air combat hero of the Li family, Lin* was injured in the air battle on May 26, and then was transferred to a major hospital in Beijing, which naturally aroused people's attention. People who care about this incredible heroic pilot naturally notice the actions of those associated with him; On the other hand, the sudden tension and rapid silence of the war in Southeast Asia have led people to believe the predictions of experts that China's victory in the war is a foregone conclusion, that the war can be ended logically, that China cannot defeat the United States, that it cannot afford this loss, and that the Americans are facing the same problem. National affairs are not decided by ordinary people, it is the responsibility of the political elite, so people turn their attention back to the country, because people's thoughts must always have a sustenance, a topic of reflection and controversy, which naturally includes those legends, practical and entertainment news. The fairy has always played such a role, her every move will cause a sensation, so people suddenly found that the fairy is no longer human, and Xixing is already a human being, the whole fairy and Xixing are already a stage for young people, and the older generation of people have come to retire collectively, look at the time, it turns out that it is less than a month! Then, people suddenly discovered that under the leadership of the new leader, Xixing Company not only cleaned up Liu's real estate, but also carried out large-scale infrastructure activities; Xixing's handling of Liu's real estate, people can understand, the homeland is difficult to give up, and the new leader is unwilling to let Liu's real estate, which has been pinned on his efforts, just disappear, so why is it to make a big move on this worthless land?

When people unanimously pointed out that the fairy was building their own industrial city, it had entered June, and at this time, the new leaders of the fairy and Xixing had sat on the throne of their general manager, the preparations for the fairy city had been ready, the preliminary construction had been started, the groundbreaking ceremony had already been held, a large amount of money began to be invested one after another, and many construction teams had entered one after another, and the entire Longyou Town had become a huge construction site. The construction experts and engineers of Xixing Company worked day and night to carry out land exploration, surveying, and drawing urban blueprints, and dispatched more than 100 construction teams from all over the country and invited more than a dozen cooperative construction companies to build this dream city of fairies. Since April, Xixing has rapidly invested in many infrastructure materials companies to expand the scale of the company to support the needs of later construction, control construction costs, increase the company's profits, and fundamentally reduce the cost of construction. Because according to the estimation of Fairy and Xixing, due to the large scale of the entire infrastructure, it is difficult for Xixing to complete alone, and the construction period cannot be guaranteed, so many construction partners must be introduced, and if they are allowed to purchase raw materials produced by other companies, it not only increases the cost of payment, but also increases the difficulty of monitoring the quality of the project.

When the senior responsible persons of the headquarters learned of the president's intentions, they all fell silent, and no one rushed to speak, "building the city", which is an extraordinary problem, all of whom are the company's veterans and meritorious figures, who have deep feelings for the company, and naturally understand the seriousness of the problem.

Li Mengze finally decided to inform the responsible people of the headquarters in advance, after all, such a big action can't be hidden, and the consequences will not be good, at the same time, in his opinion, the fairy should have its own industrial city, in the world's top consortium, there is only one of her company headquarters messy here, one there, even the most concentrated Beijing, is also scattered and relatively open, which seems to be incompatible with the company's status, and it is very inconvenient to manage! Originally, this economic crisis was a good opportunity for adjustment, but this opportunity was too good to take care of this aspect of the problem, and now it is a single-minded attempt to re-enter the global energy industry.

"It's a good plan, but will the company be able to handle it?" Jiang Jiannan was the first to say that as the company's chief planning expert, he knew that everyone was waiting for his statement, but when he said this, his eyes looked at his young colleague Luo Ning.

"Because of loan problems, the company was unable to support two projects at the same time." Luo Ning was a little embarrassed, from a personal point of view, he didn't want to sweep everyone's happiness, especially the boss's happiness, but as the head of the finance department, he had to seek truth from facts. The other project he mentioned, everyone knows very well, is naturally an energy project, and now the company has accumulated some funds, which makes picking up the failed project again on the agenda, "More than 490 billion yuan will be repaid for the whole of next year, although it is still difficult to recover some from Europe." Perhaps feeling a little uncomfortable, he paused, and then said, "If you can collect some from below and borrow some more, maybe you can!" ”

Luo Ning's words, let everyone be a little disappointed, and at the same time there is some hope, the company's capital reserves are not a secret, there are 500 billion funds, but also from Europe to recover more than 200 billion, if you add the income in the second half of the year, I hope it is not nothing, but the construction of the city needs trillions of yuan, an average of hundreds of billions per year, which will increase the risk of energy projects; If in the past few years, although the funds were also relatively tight, it would have been enough to spend hundreds of billions of yuan, but now it has to be at least trillions, and if there is a mistake in the middle, it will have an extremely adverse impact.

"According to various indications, the global economy will continue to improve, the recovery of various industries will accelerate, and market competition will be further intensified." Jiang Yunlong interjected in a timely manner, this is also what everyone doesn't want to hear, everyone here understands people, but when this comes out of the mouth of the head of the consulting department, the effect is obviously different. If the world economy recovers slowly, it is most beneficial to the fairy, not only can it be dealt with calmly, but it will continue to deteriorate the situation of the energy industry, but the continuous improvement of the economic situation will drive the rapid recovery of the energy industry, increase the difficulty of acquisition, and even the phenomenon of opportunities passing by in a flash. In this case, if everyone chooses, they would rather choose the energy project, but this suggestion is put forward by the boss, and the people in charge have to consider it carefully.

"Minister Luo, how big is the funding gap, I mean two projects together." Yikang interjected, although he is the son of the Li family, he is actually an errand runner, and his position in the company is lower than anyone else, but no one dares to think so, because everyone knows that he is the future general manager, and they don't know when he will take office.

Luo Ning felt embarrassed, especially in the title of young people, it was not appropriate to call anything, thought for a while, and simply waived the title, "In the next few years, the income in 40 years will be 400 billion, and the headquarters will be able to collect 300 billion, and the income in 41 years will be 500 billion, and the headquarters will be able to collect 350 billion, and the income in 42 years will be 700 billion, and the headquarters will be able to collect 5000, due to the repayment of bank loans, plus the injection of capital into Xixing, 8000 will be retained this year, about 4500 next year, and 3000 the year after tomorrow." If the two projects are launched together, there will be a gap of 300 billion this year, 1.2 trillion next year, and 400 billion the year after. Now, because of the war, many government orders cannot be collected, and the overall funds are relatively tight. "Luo Ning's meaning is very obvious, the whole pessimistic thought, no way, those who engage in finance have such problems. Everyone looked at each other, the company's financial situation is really not good, and now the situation is very good, once the opponent knows the company's details, isn't it...... Do you still have to live on loans?

"How much more can each company collect?" Li Mengze frowned, the gap is too big, and he can't give up the expansion of India's industry, so he can only start to solve it from domestic enterprises, and now it is a war period, and bank loans are also more difficult, especially in the case of unpaid debts, as the company's boss, although he also knows these situations, he has never realized that it will be so serious!

"It is more difficult for each company to have a tight hand, and it is estimated that it can collect about 2,000, not counting foreign companies." Luo Ning replied truthfully that as the Minister of Finance, his main job is to monitor the financial status of his various companies, and now even the finances of Western Star are under monitoring.

"The funds of Indian companies cannot be collected for the time being, and no matter how tight they are, they cannot be withdrawn." Li Mengze deliberately added a sentence, this is the company's established policy, everyone knows, "Yunlong, how long do you think this battle can be fought?" ”

"It can be as short as a few months, as long as years. There is a good chance that it will end in the short term. Jiang Yunlong replied affirmatively, the fairy is also very concerned about the war in Southeast Asia, the consulting department has collected a lot of information in a focused manner, and the company also has its own comments, "If the Americans are willing to consume, it is very likely to drag on, however, it is not a bad thing to fight this battle, the company's profits have increased significantly, but the longer it fights, the greater the pull on energy recovery, which is not good for us!" In addition, the situation in the Indian market is good, and the domestic market is large enough. ”

"That is to say, if you don't invest now, there will still be a backlog of funds in the future, no matter when the war ends!" Li Yikang took over the words, he was bent on building the city, and these words also touched the hearts of everyone here.

"If the war doesn't end soon, isn't the risk greater?" Jiang Jiannan glanced at the future general manager and said with some concern.

"If the war drags on, can the government use the money owed by the government to pay off the bank loans, or let the banks defer the repayment of the loans?" Yikang raised a new problem, now the government still owes the fairy more than 200 billion yuan, and this amount has also dragged the fairy's hands and feet to a certain extent. If the war continues, the government will order more supplies from the fairies, and even if the war is over, there will be a large number of supplies from the fairies in the short term, and the arrears will be more and more, which is a great headache for them.

Yikang's words made everyone here happy, especially Finance Minister Luo Ning, who had been struggling with this problem for a long time, not only to repay the bank loan, but also to "loan" to the government to support the war effort, which made them extremely embarrassed. Since the company's finances are okay, it is not too difficult to deal with the acquisition, so they have no idea of playing with the bank and the government, and if ...... Then the funds for the construction of Fairy City will be secured, and at least the normal construction can be maintained. A few other people were also happy, and they didn't need to count it, everyone knew how appropriate it was to let the government repay the bank loan, which was a good idea to kill two birds with one stone!

"Okay, of course, the government is the majority shareholder of the bank, let them go to the skin themselves!" Li Mengze was the first to express his position, he has long been deeply dissatisfied with the government's arrears, and he has to pay bank interest every year, and the government will not pay a penny more. The boss's statement undoubtedly increased everyone's confidence, since the boss has made up his mind, they will naturally not back down, the key is that the two projects can be implemented at the same time, how can they not be excited.

Although the government's arrears will be repaid, but the bank is more willing to charge interest, they are happy to provide low-interest long-term loans to the fairy, even if it is not clear what the idea of this big fortune is, or said that it can help, the interest, according to the last loan in 38 years, but the fairy is too high, and finally the two sides finalized the transaction at 3.5%, which makes the fairy have confidence all of a sudden. For the fairy, the huge financial reserves are the source of her pain, and the debt ratio must be appropriately increased in order to become a "normal company". It is a loss, in mid to early April, a wartime agreement was reached with the bank, of course, the bank put forward a lot of valuable collateral, as for the government, it seems that it is also interested in the emergence of a new industrial city, there are also many famous industrial cities in the country, such as the automobile city Changchun, Shiyan, the steel city of Panzhihua, the coal city of Pingdingshan, Datong, the oil city of Daqing, the old tin and so on, but most of these cities are now not as good as they used to be, into a hodgepodge of all walks of life, and no company has the courage to build a new industrial city, Abroad, however, there are many industrial cities with well-known large companies, and they have become a powerful driver of the local economy.
