Chapter 626: The helplessness of the old leader
When he decided to get involved in the pension industry, Guan Yuntian's concept was to seek benefits from scale, and the profits in this industry were meager, and it was impossible to make a profit if it could not achieve a certain scale. Because the scale of the county's pension project is small, from planning to construction, the project itself does not consume much energy, but after it is put into operation, in order to avoid corporate losses, Guan Yuntian did use his brains.
I have done financial analysis, in the existing management model of Changda Holdings, the pension project has a break-even point, but the scale of this project in Fuyuan County is below the break-even point, not to mention profitability, even if it is to achieve capital protection, it also needs to dig deep potential.
Don't think that the pension division of Changda Holdings is a whole, and each sub-project can sit back and relax, because the internal regulations of listed companies stipulate that each sub-project is an independent accounting unit, and if any sub-item has a loss, it is difficult to continue, and the final outcome can only be closed down.
Of course, Guan Yuntian could not personally manage this small project in the county seat, but the energy he paid for the operation and management here was no less than that of other projects, and his purpose was not to seek much profit, but at least to ensure the operation of the capital, so that the project could be maintained normally, and not to give up halfway, otherwise, not only the relevant leaders who strongly supported the project at the beginning would lose their faces, but he himself would also fall into an embarrassing situation.
However, Guan Yuntian is a master of management after all, when he withdrew from the real estate industry, he dared to invest a lot of resources in the pension business, which was not a hot-headed move, but a wise choice made after many consultations, careful analysis and careful consideration.
Although the project is located in the county below the break-even point, the scale is indeed smaller, but it is not without any advantages, such as the salary of the staff of the pension institution is lower than that of the provincial capital, and then the price also has a certain advantage, as long as it is in accordance with the three requirements he put forward, Guan Yuntian believes that the capital preservation operation is not a problem, the key is that the management must do everyone's due diligence.
Hearing that the county town's project has been officially put into operation, Chairman Xie of the city can't wait for a long time, because they have already made preparations, and it can be said that everything is ready, and only Dongfeng is owed.
On this morning, Guan Yuntian was in the office to discuss work with several core managers of the county's pension project, when he heard a knock on the door outside, and before he could say "please come in", the door was pushed open, and when he looked up, it was President Xie of the Huayuan City Association on Aging.
"Old leader, why are you here? I didn't make a phone call beforehand. Guan Yuntian got up to greet him.
"You're having a meeting, aren't you? Am I disturbing you?" Lao Xie stood in place, slightly embarrassed.
"No excuses, we're done, please take a seat. Guan Yuntian turned sideways and said to several managers: "Go back, and implement the plan just decided." ”
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect you guys to be in a meeting. Lao Xie sat down on the sofa.
"Don't say it's already over, even if it's in a meeting, it doesn't matter, I said, as long as I'm in the headquarters, the door of Changda Group and my office will always be open to you. Guan Yuntian also sat on the sofa next to him.
"I heard that the county's pension project has been put into operation?"
"Yes, these people just now are the core managers of the project. In front of the old leader, Guan Yuntian did not hide the situation.
"The project here is running smoothly, what about us, what are you going to do?"
"You're here today, or I'm going to look for you in the next two days, the matter here is basically over, let's go our separate ways, you take the reliability report to go through the project approval procedures, I find the design unit, let them start designing." "Guan Yuntian said.
"How long do you estimate it will take for the project in the city to be completed?" Lao Xie seemed a little anxious.

Guan Yuntian thought for a while, "The scale of the project in the provincial capital is very large, the project in the county is smaller than yours, and the big and small ones have experience, and medium-sized projects like yours should be more handy to do, I estimate that it will be about the same in about half a year." ”
Knowing the truth from Guan Yuntian, Lao Xie didn't dare to delay, he immediately got up and said goodbye, "I'm going back, what you ordered must be implemented quickly." ”
"Hey, you're too anxious! You haven't said a few words yet, we haven't been together for a long time, haven't we? No matter how busy you are, you'll have to have lunch before going back!"
"I think it's okay, it's better to hurry up and work. ”
"Old leader, you are now in a semi-retired state, why are you so yourself? No matter how fast you hurry up and work, so long time has passed, you don't care about waiting for another day and a half, right?"
Lao Xie leaned back on the sofa, he was a little tired, nodded and sighed: "You are right, many things are just like that, you are in a hurry, some people are not in a hurry, so in the end, you will be in a hurry." To be honest, if it weren't for such a position in the Association on Aging, I wouldn't have bothered to bother with this!"
Guan Yuntian didn't know that in order to introduce the pension project of Changda Holding Company in the past few months, Lao Xie has indeed done a lot of work and dealt with many functional departments, and he has realized the difficulty of doing things for the people at the bottom.
Lao Xie is still the vice chairman of the municipal association, and he goes to the functional departments to do things in his capacity, although he has basically not been troubled, but the staff has been meticulous with him to talk about principles, and some things cannot be done after a few trips, he is in a hurry to say that he can only wait patiently, otherwise, he is afraid that the staff will say that he wants to engage in privileges. This is why it only took more than half a month for Deputy County Magistrate Jiang to complete the work in the county, and Lao Xie took three or four months to complete the matter.
Every time he thinks of this, Lao Xie feels tired, but the Huayuan municipal community knows that Lao Xie is doing this, and he has also made a promise to Guan Yuntian, so he can't give up halfway, even if it is difficult to ride a tiger, he must go forward hard.
What Lao Xie didn't expect was that he talked to the deputy mayor of the city who was now in charge of finance and taxation about tax reduction and financial subsidies, and the other party actually found several far-fetched reasons to refuse his request. Lao Xie was originally in charge of finance, taxation and finance in the city government, and he knew the relevant policies well, so of course he could not agree with the statement of his successor.
Lao Xie knew that this successor was not the candidate he recommended when he took a back seat, this person was parachuted from an external unit and had a strong background, so it was estimated that he deliberately did not give him face. However, after all, the pension project is a livelihood project explicitly supported by the municipal government, and Lao Xie finally solved the problem when he found the leader of the municipal government.
In front of Guan Yuntian, Lao Xie once swore that Huayuan City was rich in land resources, but it was very nerve-wracking for him to really ask the land department for project construction.
Lao Xie's previous estimate is indeed correct, the construction land of Huayuan City is not tight, but the land department gives the plot of land is 20 kilometers away from the urban area, where the environmental conditions are extremely poor, flies and mosquitoes are rampant, the traffic is inconvenient, and even the road greening needs to be built from scratch. Besides, with Guan Yuntian's shrewdness, if the city set the location of the pension institution in such a place, it would be impossible for him to accept it.
Of course, Lao Xie was not satisfied with the attitude of the land department, but the other party asked him to understand, because the government wanted to get the land market auction to maximize the benefits because of the good location of the construction land. Lao Xie once was in charge of finance, taxation and finance in the municipal government, and the local government's dependence on land finance, he knew, and the construction land for the pension project, because the project belongs to the government-supported livelihood project, not only can not be high in land price, but also give appropriate preferential treatment, this

It makes it difficult for the land department.
Lao Xie knew very well that on a plot of land in such a location, Guan Yuntian would rather not do a project in Huayuan City than agree with the opinion of the land department.
In order to promote the project, Lao Xie had to be cheeky to go to the city government again in person, and bitterly told the social significance of the pension project and the stakes of the project location, perhaps in the past in the city government to work together, the first leader finally agreed to call the leader in charge of the land department, so that they set the pension project construction land closer to the city.
Seeing that Lao Xie was not in a high mood, Guan Yuntian asked with concern: "Old leader, have you encountered any difficulties?"
"Difficulties, I can encounter them every day, but fortunately, they have been overcome one by one, but to be honest, this seemingly justifiable livelihood project is the most protracted project I have ever handled, and it is completely different from my initial expectations!"
"To put it bluntly, it's not because you don't have power in your hands, if you're still in your original position, I don't think you need to come forward in person, your secretary or driver can help you get things done, and even just a few phone calls, the following functional departments can take the initiative to do it for you. ”
"That's right. For the sake of business, now I pull down this old face and beg them, I don't even know what I want!" Lao Xie said helplessly.
"What's the picture? The picture is worthy of your own conscience, because you want to do something for the elderly in Huayuan City. In fact, you, a leader who has taken a back seat, can completely mess around in the office, and the salary is not a lot, so why bother with this heart!" Guan Yuntian said.
"yes, if I had known there was so much trouble, I wouldn't have come forward. ”
At lunch, talking about the investment in pension projects, Lao Xie said: "In your huge plan, the investment comes from Changda Holding Company, haven't you thought about absorbing private capital?"
"Private capital? Changda Holdings is a listed company, except for projects in provincial capitals, our investments in other places will come from the stock market financing, isn't the stock market a gathering place for private capital?" Guan Yuntian said.
"With the gradual implementation of your pension projects in other cities, the demand for funds will definitely increase, I mean in addition to stock market financing, can you open the door to the surrounding social capital?"
Guan Yuntian thought for a while, "You can do this, but whether it is social or private capital, have higher requirements for income expectations, you know that the profits of pension projects are meager, we don't even dare to use the bank's funds easily, for fear that interest will pose a huge pressure on our operating costs, and we will stay away from private capital with higher requirements for returns." ”
"How do you deal with the increasing demand for funds? Do you want to keep issuing more shares? Even if the regulators allow it, investors may not be able to buy it. ”
"First of all, even if the next step is to do pension projects in other cities, it can only be carried out one by one step in an orderly manner, and it is impossible to carry out it in multiple cities at the same time, which is far from as great as imagined; There are two ways to solve the funds required for investment, first, although the pension project is not profitable, but the income is stable, a number of institutional investors are willing to hold the equity of Changda Holdings, if they need funds, we can issue additional to them; second, Changda Group accounts for 45% of the shares in the listed company, if the other shareholders of the board of directors are unwilling to follow, the equity income of Changda Group alone, can also push the projects in other cities forward. "Guan Yuntian said.
"I'm still worried about your funding chain, it seems that I'm overthinking. ”
"Thank you for the old leader's concern! But I said that Changda Group never rushes into battle. ”
