They saw Li Shanjing at the exit of Qingyang Railway Station.
Li Rui saw him walking out in a suit. Although he did not have a good impression of him, he had to admit that he was a fashionable and handsome man. He would be a good match for Lin Hyomei. Therefore, he quickly walked up to him to welcome him.
Li Shanjing, the heir of a world-renowned financial group, not only showed his style in dressing up, but he also showed his efficient demeanor in greeting people. After shaking hands with Li Rui and exchanging pleasantries, he directly asked Li Rui to take him to the city for an inspection.
Li Rui was not surprised by this and asked everyone to get in the car. He brought a Toyota Coaster this time, and there were only five people in Li Shanjing's team, so it was more than enough.
After the car started, Li Rui sat in the last row and called Secretary-General Du Minsheng to inform him. Before he came out, Song Chaoyang and Yu Heping had already gathered at the Municipal Party Committee to welcome Li Shanjing, the investor who came from afar. After all, it was very difficult for an inland city to attract investment from Korea. Moreover, the investor was the fourth largest financial group in Korea. Therefore, half of the Municipal Party Committee's standing committee members were waiting at the Municipal Party Committee to welcome Li Shanjing and his team. However, now that Li Shanjing asked to go for an inspection directly, Li Rui had to send a letter to his family to inform them of this change.
Fortunately, this change was within Li Rui's expectations. He had already told Song Chaoyang, and he believed that they would accept this change easily.
After listening to Li Rui's report, Du Minsheng made a prompt decision. "Okay, then we will go to Gaokkai District immediately and meet you there."
Li Rui reminded in a low voice, "You have to be mentally prepared. Li Shanjing may not be keen on receiving guests …"
Du Minsheng understood what he meant. He was worried that he and Song Chaoyang would be ignored when they met Li Shanjing later. It would be embarrassing. "This is okay. As local officials, we have to maintain our attitude at all times. When facing foreign investors, we are purely waiters. Our main task is to provide all kinds of services. We don't have to worry about other meaningless things like face."
Du Minsheng's statement also reflected the psychological changes of local leaders in the process of attracting investment in the new era. This change led to a change in their mental outlook and the way they treated people, which also contributed to the great success of attracting investment across the country. It could be said that since the reform and opening up, it was not only the market, but also the people's hearts and the work style of the majority of the leaders.. this was very great!
Of course, not all of the local leaders were as open-minded as Du Minsheng. Some of them had a serious bureaucratic style, and their minds were deeply ingrained with the thoughts of being an official. What's wrong with you being a foreign businessman? No matter how great you are, you still have to come to my territory to make money, right? Since you want to come to my territory to make money, then you have to respect me as an official. If you respect me, then I will give you an inch. We can shake hands and make a fortune together. But if you don't respect me, then I'm sorry, but don't blame me for being rude to you!
Li Rui was sure that when the reception team of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government saw Li Shanjing later, there would definitely be some people who would be unhappy about being ignored by Li Shanjing. However, no matter how unhappy these people were, it was useless because the leaders of the Party Committee and the Government, Song Chaoyang and Yu Heping, had already expressed their attitudes. These people would not be able to cause any trouble.
Half an hour later, the Toyota Toyota Cars arrived at the Gao Kai District Government Compound and met up with the reception team formed by Song Chaoyang, Yu Heping, and the others. Then, they rushed to the Hi-Tech Park together.
On the way, Li Rui sat next to Li Shanjing. With the help of a translator, he briefly introduced the tax incentives of the high-tech park to him.
Li Shanjing listened quietly and did not make any comments. He did not even nod his head. His reaction made the translator feel very awkward. He did not know how to reply to Li Rui.
Li Rui did not care about this. He thought to himself, Li Shanjing, you can pretend to be cold if you want. Even if you become a big popsicle, I don't have to say anything as long as you agree to invest in Qingyang. The investment does not need to be a lot. Even if it is only 50 million, I will welcome it with open arms.
The car stopped at the entrance of Area A of the Hi-Tech Park. Li Rui invited Li Shanjing to get off the car and go in for a tour.
However, Li Shanjing rejected this proposal. He asked the translator to tell him that he did not need to go in for a tour. He only needed to drive around the various parks and find a place to understand the details of the tax incentives.
Li Ruixin thought about it. He was worried that Li Shanjing would ignore his boss and the others during the tour of Gao Kai District. However, Li Shanjing did not even give them a chance to do so. He did not even get off the car. He just walked around the park and left. His boss and the others could only drink the exhaust gas behind him. It was really cool. However, it was better this way. It saved time. Li Ruixin immediately asked the driver to drive around the park a few times. Then, he called the Secretary-General, Du Minsheng.
15 minutes later, the "tour" ended. Under the invitation of the leaders of Gao Kai District, a group of people went to the government building of Gao Kai District to hold a meeting.
During the meeting, Li Shanjing did not say a word. He handed over the power to a vice president of his family group in charge of investment in China. This vice president was a Korean, but he was "China expert". He even married a Chinese wife. His child was also a Chinese citizen. It could be said that he was half Chinese. He was responsible for the investment and construction of the Li Group's factories in China. He had a lot of power. Of course, he was also very familiar with the major cities in China. He was also very familiar with the tax incentives offered by the major investment hotspots.
However, he was not familiar with Qingyang at all. He had never even heard of this city before. Before he came, he did some last-minute research on the internet and did some simple research on the city. At the same time, he did not understand why Li Shanjing did not consider the coastal cities in the east and the investment hotspots in the southwest, such as Chengdu and Chongqing, but insisted on investing in the inland city of Qingyang. However, no matter how much he did not understand, he had to unconditionally support and obey Li Shanjing's wishes and decisions. Not only because Li Shanjing was the young master of the Li Group, but also because the entire company in China was under the control of this young master.
In recent years, the Li Group had shifted the strategic focus of the group's development to China. Together with the Korean groups that came to China earlier, such as Samsung, and famous brands in Europe, Japan, and the United States, they were competing for the world's largest market in China. Of course, they had made a lot of money over the years, but there was still a big gap between them and their old competitor, Samsung. Therefore, the leaders of the group were paying more and more attention to the development of the Chinese market. At this juncture, the group appointed Li Shanjing to be in charge of the company in China. It was not only showing the expectation of the successor of the group, but also his ability.
No one could underestimate this young master, and no one would underestimate him. On the contrary, many people wanted to show their ability in front of this young master in order to get into his eyes. In the future, when he took over the control of the group, they would be put in an important position by him. Now, this vice president was one of those people who had such thoughts. He hoped to show his ability through this conference and let Li Shanjing know that not only was it right to bring him here, but he was also very useful.
"Hello everyone, I am the vice president of the Korean SL Group in China. My name is Kwon Jhongren, and I am currently in charge of the company's investment in China. After listening to the district chief's detailed introduction of foreign investment, I only have one feeling, and that is, I have come to the wrong place. I don't think there is a need to invest in your city. "
This Kwon Jhongren's words were shocking. The first time he spoke, he shocked everyone, including Song Chaoyang, Yu Heping, and other city leaders. However, his Chinese was very good, and it was praiseworthy. If one did not hear his name, they would think that he was a pure Chinese.
Li Shanjing did not understand what he was saying, so he turned to look at the interpreter. The interpreter was sitting next to him, and when he saw this, he hurriedly translated for him in a low voice. After hearing this, Li Shanjing was neither happy nor angry. He slightly lowered his eyelids, as if he was not interested.
After Kwon Jhongren's words made everyone fall into a short period of embarrassment, he quickly gave a more ruthless evaluation. "Located in the inland, the transportation is inconvenient, the resources are scarce, and the development is backward. There is nothing praiseworthy about it. It is simply a desert of death for investors. What makes me even more speechless is that even though the investment environment is so bad, you local officials don't seem to realize these disadvantages and don't give better conditions in terms of tax preferential policies compared to other cities. I really can't think of the possibility of investing in this city. "
When the city leaders heard this, they became more and more surprised. Many people began to secretly feel annoyed, and the way they looked at this vice president was no longer friendly.
Yu Heping calmly said, "President Quan, as the mayor, I think it is necessary for me to revise your argument just now. Our Qingyang is located in the inland, but the transportation is still very convenient. The Beijing-Jiu Beijing-Guangzhou Railway runs through our city, and the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway also passes through our city. The transportation network can be said to be well-connected. The nearest airport is only 200 kilometers away, and it only takes an hour to get there by train. Except for the lack of sea routes, we have all the land and air routes. How can you say that the transportation is inconvenient? It is not like we are deep in the mountains or forests! "
