Chapter 196, Bidding Meeting
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, every household pasted the Spring Festival couplets, people got up early, put on the most beautiful clothes, dressed up neatly, went out to visit relatives and friends, greeted each other in the New Year, and wished good luck in the coming year. Due to the different customs in various places, some places pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the new year.
If it is in the countryside, you can hear the sound of firecrackers early in the morning, which is called "opening the door to the fire" in the custom, which means opening the door to the door, after the sound of firecrackers, the ground is full of broken red, bright like a cloud brocade, called "full house".
When I woke up early in the morning, I saw firecrackers everywhere and a festive atmosphere everywhere, but it was obvious that I could not see this scene in Dongning City, because fireworks were prohibited in the city, and you could see the red color couplets posted on the streets by the Cultural Affairs 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 that will determine the history of Dongning, the beginning of the bidding meeting, which means that the construction of the new economic zone has officially begun. It seems that some people have already made up their minds.
The joint supervision team composed of development and reform, supervision, construction, transportation, water conservancy, audit and other departments, arrived at the Donghua Hotel early, the venue here is specially arranged for the bidding meeting, the five-star hotel of the Donghua Hotel, is the most powerful of the four companies in the bidding, Jiujiang Group's enterprises.
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 tens of billions of dollars 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 easy to get a bank loan.
For banks, they don't have much money, a lot of liquidity, and a huge amount of loans to these companies, especially real estate companies, is definitely a profitable deal.
In fact, the bank also had no money, but when the people deposited their money, the bank naturally had money, so there was such a strange and ironic cycle.
The most ironic thing is that the people can't afford to buy the high-priced house, so they can only take out the money in the bank, go to the bank to make a mortgage, and borrow money from the bank 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 appeared, house slave.
The pity is that no one knows that under this kind of profit-on-rolling profits, empty speculation and investment not only did not activate the economy at all, but instead stirred up the economy into a pool of stagnant water, and what could have been bought for one dollar could only be bought for ten yuan in the end, and it was the common people who paid a heavy price in the end.
After all, developers and banks make a lot of money, and even if inflation happens, the money in their hands is still enough for them to live very well and live a life that is extremely enviable and even covetous.
The atmosphere of the whole bidding meeting is very active, the venue comes and goes is Dongning City and even Jiangnan Province dignitaries, one by one talking to each other, the front row of the meeting is arranged by the central party committee seats, it is said that this time the municipal party committee secretary Yu and Mayor Yang will come to the venue, because they are the bidders for the construction of the new economic zone.
With the commissioner from the Central Development and Reform Commission here, neither Secretary Yu nor Mayor Yang can interfere with the results of this bidding, and the entire bidding quadripartite 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.
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, this young man looked like he was 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 the stars 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 aluminum king, private shipbuilding giant, Jiujiang Group is a bag of all walks of life, but there are few real estate industry, the reason why this time will appear here, it seems 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 the first representative of the province, and the Standing Committee of the CPPCC has a close relationship with the central government, so this time Xie Chang came here in person, and everyone felt that Jiujiang Group was bound to win.
Then Jiujiang Group and Menglong Group both arrived, and Wei Ziyun also came with his 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 new year, and each returned to his 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, except for the rostrum, most of the reporters have come to their positions.
At about half past eight o'clock, Secretary Yu of the Municipal Party Committee and Mayor Yang came briefly, headed 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's side, and after talking with them, they each sat down, and the bidding meeting was scheduled to start at nine o'clock.
There are a total of five large projects and more than 30 small projects in the construction of the new economic zone, but everyone knows that the most important projects are the previous five, because one of them is more than 30 small projects.
Among these five major projects, it is tantamount to the core project in the new economic zone, which will be used as the core of the entire Dongning economy in the future to attract investment, and whoever gets the development and construction rights of this place is tantamount to controlling the cornucopia of Dongning City in the future.
The venue is still full of discussions, to the last ten minutes, but no one found the shadow of the dark horse company of Oriental International, some people even feel that Oriental International may be timid, even if they come, compared with the other three giants, it is also the difference between ants and elephants, all the media's eyes are focused on the three giants, as for Oriental International, this small company that has just been established, at most it is just a dragonfly and a little bit of water, and it will not cause any changes in the entire lake at all.
But no one thought that there is a word for the butterfly effect, a butterfly in the Amazon rainforest in South America, occasionally flapping its wings, can cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later.
The person presiding over the meeting was Director Jiang of the New Economic Zone Construction Planning Office after recovering from his injury, although Director Jiang has now been removed from his post as deputy director of the Education Bureau, but it still 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 the arrival of the people of Oriental International Co., Ltd., 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 municipal government, I first give a New Year's greeting to the people of the city and everyone here." ”
Saying that, Director Jiang bowed, 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 they didn't know why, but 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 bigwigs and celebrities present frowned, and Director Jiang's face changed on the rostrum, knowing that it would be absolutely no good for this guy to come, but he still smiled and said: "This gentleman, the bidding will have strict security requirements, do you have documents?" ”
"Papers?" 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 at the venue, and there were many speculations: "Could he be the president of Orient International?" ”
"It's a possibility." The people at the venue speculated.
At this time, Ye Menglong and Wei Ziyun 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 Mr. 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 becoming the president of this Oriental International, what did he want to prove, but what did he use to prove it? Secretary Yu's heart was lifted and put down again.
Without Director Jiang saying anything, several armed police guards walked up 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 his certificate, which clearly wrote the words of the president of Oriental International Co., Ltd., and the armed police security had some questions: "This document does not match me, please leave." ”
"We have just bought this Oriental International, and all the procedures have been completed." Heiman took out a stack of materials and handed them to the armed police.
The armed police saluted, and then took it to verify, and at this time, the people around heard Heiman's words, and said in their hearts that this Oriental International is really here to join in the fun, and the bidding has not started before the president is changed.
But soon, the people of the municipal party committee and Director Jiang got the answer, all the materials of Canglong are legal, and according to the procedure, the current president of Oriental International can participate in the bidding
