Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 600: Discouragement

Xu Bin was here, and he was considered a host. The bosses in the tourism industry all stood up with their wine glasses in hand and said, 'Hello, Boss Xu!'

'Within the province, I, your humble servant, have two more hotels opening this month. In the new year, I hope that you all will continue to support me,'

'No problem, as long as you have the right conditions, we will definitely continue to patronise your hotels, Jiasheng and Yijia,'

'As long as everyone supports us, our agreement will definitely be full of sincerity. However, while you are eating the meat, don't forget to leave some for me. In short, I would like to ask you seniors to take care of me. I will do my best!'

After returning to China for so long, unlike those people who have drunk a little foreign ink abroad and, after returning to China, must include an English word in every sentence to flaunt their experiences, Xu Bin has, at least in terms of speaking, become a true-blue Chinese national. For example, he speaks very down-to-earth when he says these things now.

'Mr Xu, what are you talking about? We understand the principle of sharing wealth together,'

'Yes, mutual benefit is the only way to achieve long-term success,'

'Then I'd like to thank you all. In a few days, I'll arrange for someone to deliver the agreement to your company. If you have any comments, please be sure to give me a call. Please forgive me, but I really didn't have time to visit each of you individually before the New Year.'

'I understand. Everyone has been busy these days, and you, Mr Xu, have had to travel all over the country.'

The travel company has always been the focus of the hotel business department's efforts. No matter how many arguments there will be when the agreement is actually signed, at least for now, the two sides are getting along very well.

Seeing Xu Bin walk over to the next table with a smile, just say a few words, and then be heckled by an old hand in the tourism industry and the people at the table to drink a glass of wine, and then look at the two Liu brothers over there, carrying a bottle of wine and strutting along, everyone shakes their heads and smiles. Similarly rapid development, compared to the two Liu brothers, the young Xu always has a really pleasant demeanour.

If those two brothers want to develop like Jiasheng, I'm afraid that no one here today will be able to look them in the eye.

Liu Jishan's goal is very clear. He leads his older brother straight to Mei Yiliang and Jin Ling. He wants them to know that without butcher Zhang, I will still not eat pigs with hair.

If he doesn't let Mei Yiliang know about the achievements he has easily made in the past few months, he really won't be able to get his point across.

The main point is that after really getting into real estate, he has come to appreciate even more how fat a piece of meat the Jiasheng land is. Telling them about his achievements over the past few months has not been without adding points for himself, with the intention of collaborating again on that land.

He was still two or three metres away from the table, but he took the initiative to fill his glass. He was about to call out to someone when his brother tugged him. He looked over and saw the deputy mayor in charge of the economy, accompanied by the heads of the Economic and Trade Bureau and the Investment Promotion Bureau, carrying a glass of wine and also walking towards Jinling.

He had no choice but to stop. Now he could call Mayor Sun of Binjiang District his brother and be close to him, but at the level of city leaders, he was temporarily unable to connect.

However, although he pretended to be talking to his big brother, he was actually listening intently to the conversation over there.

'President Jin, I heard that Jiasheng is preparing to invest 100 million US dollars in Shanghai?' the deputy mayor asked.

'Yes, in order to facilitate the development of the southeast market, we have just made this decision and are currently liaising with Shanghai,' Jin Ling was not surprised. She also knew that such news could not be kept secret.

'President Jin is really generous,' said the director of the Municipal Economic and Trade Bureau. "However, can Jiasheng give priority to investing in its hometown?'

'Yes, we promise to provide the most favourable conditions in every respect and give you the green light," said the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau.

The deputy mayor said, 'Business expansion is a good thing. We have always encouraged enterprises in the province to go out boldly. The focus of our economic work is not only to bring in investment, but also to go global. No matter where you develop, please remember that the city will always be your strong backing.'

'Thank you for your support, Mayor,'

'I heard from below that, so far, Jiasheng has not yet obtained financing from the bank. Do you need me to coordinate this?' the deputy mayor asked of his own accord.

'Thank you, Mayor, and the leaders, for your consistent love and support. Please be assured, leaders, that Jiasheng started in the province, and the province will always be our focus for investment. A series of projects have already been planned and are in the process of being implemented. Please be assured, Mayor, and leaders, that investing in Shanghai does not mean a shift in the focus of our investment, but is simply a need for the objective development of our business.

As for capital, we are currently very well-funded, and when the need arises, we will definitely seek your help, Mayor,' Jin Ling's response was watertight and thorough.

'Haha, no problem, give my regards to your father,' the deputy mayor smiled, lightly clinking glasses with Jin Ling and Mei Yiliang.

On occasions like this, the leaders' speeches are all to the point. Jiasheng Group does not intend to shift its focus, or change the company's place of registration, so as to reduce taxes.

Even the current leaders, however bureaucratic they may be, will not require state-owned enterprises under their jurisdiction to keep all their investments in the local area.

Liu Jishan, who had been a little drunk with the compliments from his peers, had sobered up by now.

He heard clearly what they said over there, and couldn't believe it: Jiasheng was actually going to invest 100 million US dollars in Shanghai? And they had even taken the initiative to refuse the vice mayor's offer to coordinate a bank loan. They were so well-funded?

He looked at his eldest brother, Liu Jizhong, who nodded. He was also shocked to hear the news, but it was indeed 100 million US dollars!

'I guess it's a loan,' he said, trying to comfort his brother, who had suddenly slumped.

Liu Jizhong shook his head. The deputy mayor had just said that Jiasheng didn't need a loan. Besides, where would the dollars come from for a loan?

He suddenly felt very frustrated. He remembered that a few months ago, he had begged and pleaded with everyone he knew for a loan, saying all sorts of nice things. Jiasheng, on the other hand, had turned down a loan that had been offered to them on a plate. The difference between the two was so great that it took the wind out of his sails, and his back was bent.

At the same time, he was a little relieved. For the past few months, he had been gloating over the tens of millions of dollars that were about to come in. He had even been preparing to go and brag about it in front of them. Fortunately, he had walked slowly, and if he had said that in front of them, what kind of look would he have received?

Scoffing, disdain, or indifference?

But others have already invested hundreds of millions of dollars. What is the point of his own achievements?

He no longer had the mood to go and toast and talk to Jin Ling and Mei Yiliang. He sighed, and was about to pour the wine in his hand into his mouth when he suddenly heard a cold snort from the table next to him. He looked over and immediately brightened up. The number one woman at the provincial party committee, Shen Xue, who had heard that her position was now somewhat insecure, was looking angrily over at Jin Ling.

Could this be his potential ally? He immediately walked over with his wine glass in hand, 'Hello, Miss Shen!'
