Chapter 603: The Pancakes Are Delicious

The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: []

Update as soon as possible! none!

When Li Weidong mentioned that there was no money for follow-up construction, everyone had already understood that Li Weidong made such a detour just to ask the leaders for real estate development loans!

These years, all over the country are engaged in economic construction, and large-scale construction must be an indispensable thing.

In addition to infrastructure such as roads, bridges, railways, and airports, livelihood projects such as sports venues, cultural and tourism facilities, colleges and universities, and hospital stations are also under construction.

The local finances in most areas cannot afford such a large amount of funds, so they can only seek bank loans and use future fiscal revenues to repay them.

In addition to government-led construction, most of them are private construction investment. How can real estate companies pay for themselves when building shopping malls, office buildings, and residences? They all rely on real estate development loans.

In order to obtain real estate development loans, there are not a few developers who go to relevant departments to seek connections and find ways. Therefore, several leaders present immediately understood Li Weidong's intentions.

By this time, Li Weidong had already tried to see him, and Li Weidong did not hide.

He said directly: Leaders, to tell you the truth, the wholesale mall project I am working on now lacks real estate development loans. As long as I have bank loans, my project can be accelerated.

At present, in terms of loan conditions, we are up to the standard. The projects have all been approved by the city. I can get the project funds of 30, but the bank’s approval for real estate development loans is relatively strict, and no loans are granted. .

So I would like to ask the leaders to help us to list our shopping mall project in Qinghe City as a key provincial commercial project, so that it will be much easier for us in terms of financing!

Next to it, Zhang Jiagang, secretary of Qinghe City, also chimed in: This wholesale mall project has played a huge role in promoting the economy of our Qinghe City.

Just a textile wholesale mall has driven the employment of 100,000 people in the city, and the tax payment last year exceeded 30 million yuan! If there are more shopping malls like this, the economy of our Qinghe City will definitely be able to reach another level!

Paying 30 million yuan in taxes is not a big amount now. In Yiwu in later generations, there are a lot of big households who pay taxes exceeding 10 million yuan a year, and there are countless people who pay taxes exceeding 1 million yuan.

But in 2000, the tax payment of 30 million was a huge figure for a poor place like Qinghe.

At that time, the annual land tax in Qinghe City was only about 1.2 billion, and the textile wholesale mall could pay 30 million in taxes. It was already a golden hen.

No one would think there are too many hens that can lay golden eggs. Of course, Zhang Jiagang is doing his best to build a few more wholesale malls.

The invited leaders looked at each other thoughtfully.

Although everyone knows that it may be a bit difficult to surpass Yiwu, but this pie is too big and too tempting. If it is really successful, the whole province's economy will take off directly because of it!

Even if it can't surpass Yiwu, it can reach or approach the level of Yiwu, even if it is only 70% to 80% of the volume of Yiwu Mall, it is a very remarkable economic achievement, and it can also drive the economy forward several steps.

As Zhang Jiagang introduced, a textile wholesale mall can directly or indirectly create 100,000 jobs, and can pay 30 million yuan in taxes a year. If you build more, it will have huge benefits for both the economy and tax revenue.

Moreover, the funds for the construction of the project were not provided by the government, but by Li Weidong, who used real estate development loans, and the risks were also borne by the bank.

If the project unfortunately fails and there is a debt problem, Li Weidong will also suffer losses. With so many properties under Li Weidong's hands, he can repay the money by selling some casually.

In this way, the construction project of Li Weidong Mall,

At least it won't lose money.

But if the mall project is successful, the people who handle it will inevitably gain a lot of political achievements.

At that time, it can be said that this is a project I approved, and it will definitely be regarded as a discerning decision, which will inevitably make the superiors take a look.

So this account is still very easy to calculate. If the project fails, others will lose, and if the project succeeds, you will make some money. How to choose, everyone is like a bright mirror.

And after all, this is a commercial project, which is different from a residential project. The residential project sells the house and the project ends, while the commercial project will have follow-up operations and income. From an economic point of view, it has legitimacy.

Li Weidong personally sent the visiting leaders to the car and watched them leave.

Waiting for the car to disappear from view, Zhang Jiagang called Li Weidong aside.

Chairman Li, the provincial leaders are very appreciative of this project. I think there should be no problem with the real estate development loan. Zhang Jiagang said.

Thanks to Secretary Zhang's mediation, this time it went so smoothly. Li Weidong flattered immediately.

I also hope that our city's economy can be good, let alone whether it can surpass Yiwu, even if it can approach Yiwu's level, we can become a wealthy city.

As Zhang Jiagang spoke, he let out a long sigh, and continued, This real estate development loan is the last benefit I have won for Qinghe! I will be transferred next month.

Are you going to the south? Li Weidong asked.

Zhang Jiagang nodded: It's not a secret, the organization arranged for me to go to the southern coastal city.

Then I congratulate Secretary Zhang on his promotion in advance! Li Weidong said with a smile.

What promotion is it? It's just a transfer at the same level. It's also a prefecture-level city over there. Zhang Jiagang responded.

Prefecture-level cities are different from prefecture-level cities. After all, the economies of southern coastal cities are more developed. Li Weidong said with a smile.

Transferring from a northern city with a relatively average economic level to the economically developed southern coastal area, even if the level has not changed, it is actually considered a rise.

I only heard Zhang Jiagang go on to say: The organization decided to appoint Comrade Li Zhongwei to take over the position of secretary. Comrade Li Zhongwei has been with me for two years and is familiar with various affairs of the city. He will be the top leader of the city. It couldn't be more appropriate.

The Li Zhongwei that Zhang Jiagang was talking about was currently the second in command of Qinghe City. After Zhang Jiagang was transferred, he would take over the position of the first secretary.

This Li Zhongwei is one of the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination. He studied physics at Beijing Institute of Technology, so he is an out-and-out technocrat.

Perhaps also because of his background in science and engineering, Li Zhongwei attached great importance to manufacturing. During his administration of Qinghe, the industrial output value of Qinghe City increased by an average of more than 20 per year. Although no high-tech enterprises have been cultivated, the ordinary manufacturing industry has gone up several steps.

In his previous life, Li Weidong was also a second-hand machinery dealer who opened a factory and turned into an industrial entrepreneur when Li Zhongwei was in charge of Qinghe.

Nowadays, the manufacturing enterprises under Li Weidong's command are mainly located in Qinghe. It is obviously a good thing for Li Weidong to have such a leader who values ​​industry.

Sweden, Volvo headquarters, Olaf knocked on the door of the president's office.

Mr. President, are you looking for me? Olaf said.

Olaf, you are here! Please sit down? Would you like a cup of coffee? Do you want sugar? The president asked with a smile.

Less sugar, thank you. Olaf was not polite.

The female secretary went down to make coffee for Olaf, and the president said, Olaf, I remember you used to have a sweet tooth. The chocolate you gave me last time was sweet.

I also really want something sweet, but I've been trying to maintain my figure recently, so I can only bear it. Olaf replied with a smile.

Swedes generally prefer sweets. The chocolate produced in Sweden, even under the name of dark chocolate, is generally sweeter than the chocolate from Western European countries. In addition, Swedish cakes and candies are also very famous.

It is said that eating too much sugar is prone to some chronic diseases, but Sweden is a long-lived country, and the average life expectancy ranks among the highest in the world.

This is mainly caused by two reasons. The first is that the Swedes like to eat deep-sea fish. Many trace elements in deep-sea fish are good for the body. Japanese longevity also has this factor.

The second reason for the longevity of the Swedes is that the Swedes like to keep dogs. If you have a dog, you have to walk the dog. Walking the dog for half an hour can make you exercise unconsciously, which is also good for your health.

Although eating too much sweets can easily lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes, the Swedes have become one of the countries with the lowest rates of heart and brain diseases in the world by eating deep-sea fish and raising dogs.

The female secretary brought the coffee with less sugar, and the president exchanged greetings with Olaf before saying, Olaf, you are in charge of international business, what do you think is the biggest shortcoming of our products in the international market? ?”

The price should be high! Olaf continued: Our products are generally more expensive than other brands. The prices of Caterpillar in the United States and Liebherr in Germany are all cheaper than ours, let alone Japanese brands. brand.

Yeah, the price of our products is relatively high, which makes us lose some international markets. The management has always wanted to solve this problem, but the fact that Sweden's labor costs are high, which also makes our product prices high !

The president paused, and continued; In order to reduce the cost of products, the group has been seeking to build production bases overseas, and there have been several successful cases.

Over the past few decades, our focus has been on Europe and we have neglected Asia, but as Asia grows, it will become a new big market.

So according to the group's next strategic plan, we are going to set up a production base in Asia. This decision has been approved by the board of directors. I think you have heard of it!

Olaf nodded: I have indeed heard of it. However, if we want to enter the Asian market, we will face competition from Japanese products. The situation in West Asia is better, and the rest of Asia is basically dominated by Japanese products.

There are many well-known construction machinery companies in Japan. Their products have a complete range and good performance. The quality is not inferior to that of European products. The key is that Japanese products are cheap.

Over the years, Japan's construction machinery has always been an important opponent of our Volvo. When I was selling products in the international market, I was often cut off by Japanese companies!

Yeah, so we need to find a place with lower production costs than Japan as a production base, so that we can gain an advantage in the competition. And this place is China!

The president went on to introduce: China's production cost is definitely lower than that of Japan, there is no doubt about it. Although China's technology is backward, their industrial foundation is relatively complete.

Moreover, China also has abundant mineral resources, and has advantages over other Asian countries in terms of product supply chains. Moreover, China's infrastructure construction is also more complete. They have a stable power supply, a transportation network, and enough ports.

Another important point is that China itself is a growing market, and our products can be directly sold locally in China. So the group decided to set up the production base in Asia in China!

Your decision is very wise! Olaf flattered quickly.

The president continued, Actually, a few years ago, we sent a delegation to China and inspected some Chinese companies. Among the Chinese engineering companies, there are many who are willing to cooperate with us.

But what we hope is to acquire a company wholly-owned. Even if we can't fully own a company, our shareholding ratio should not be lower than 90%. However, the Chinese companies we have investigated are not willing to accept this condition.

Some of them are only willing to give up 20 to 30% of the shares, and even the one with the biggest concession is only willing to give up 50% of the shares. If we only get 50% of the equity, we Volvo will not be able to gain control of the company.

In the end, we delineated an acquisition target that was willing to give more equity, which was this company, and they were willing to give up 70% of the equity!

The president said, and handed a document to Olaf. Olaf opened it, and it contained the detailed information of a company.

Qinghe Heavy Machinery Factory? Olaf began to read the information.

After a while, Olaf said: Mr. President, with all due respect, the financial report of this company is not very impressive. They seem to be losing money all the time!

It is also because of long-term losses that they are willing to give up more equity! If it is a profitable company, how can we get most of the equity?

The president went on to say: Our people have investigated, and the foundation of this company is still very good. There are many skilled workers and a stable supply chain. The main reason for their loss is because there is a local competitor.

But these are irrelevant, when we successfully acquired this company, Wulu and any competitors will not be able to stop our way forward!

You're right. Our Volvo has the world's top technology. If the production cost is the same, how can Chinese companies be our opponents! Olaf said immediately.

The president went on to introduce: This company is very interested in our acquisition, and our people have been talking with this company for a while, and the local government also welcomes our investment.

But the problem now is that the shareholding ratio has never been negotiated, and it is stuck at 70, and they are unwilling to reduce it any further. And our bottom line is 90!

If we spend a little more money, we should be able to buy 20% of the shares, right? Olaf said immediately.

The president smiled slightly; If the acquisition funds can be increased, then there will be no conversation we have today!

Olaf instantly understood that the president didn't want to spend money, but wanted to get more shares, so the acquisition case was stuck.

Mr. President, what do you need me to do? Olaf asked immediately.

Olaf, you are in charge of the group's international business, and you are familiar with international business negotiations, so I need you to go to China to negotiate this project! the president said immediately.

Is it still the original budget? Olaf asked.

The president nodded: The acquisition budget will not increase. This price has been approved by the board of directors, and the board of directors does not want to add more money!

I see! Olaf nodded, and continued, I'll book a flight to China tomorrow! By the way, what's the name of the competitor you just mentioned? How big is it?

I don't know how big they are. I only know that the company is called Fukang Engineering Company. The president replied.

Beverly Project? Olaf was startled.

Why, do you know this Fukang project? the president asked.

Olaf nodded: Last year's Dubai Construction Machinery Exhibition, India had a large order of 120 million US dollars, which was snatched by this Fukang project!

This Fukang project is able to grab orders internationally, and I think it has some skills. Unexpectedly, this time it turned out that Yuanjia Road was narrow, and God gave me a chance to take revenge!

Mr. President, don't worry, when we acquire Qinghe Heavy Machinery and combine our world-leading technology with China's low production cost, the first one to be killed by us will be this Fukang project!

No pop-up window, timely update!
