Chapter 1688: Negotiated
After Sun Ximing poured the wine for Zhou Andong, he filled the glasses in front of himself and Liu Guangjun, then handed the bottle to Shao Hua.
"Chairman Zhou, I don't believe this at all. Even if the production isn't high, isn't it just a word from you to intercept a few boxes from someone?"
"Since the leader has said so, can I still have an opinion?"
Zhou Andong gave a bitter laugh and said to Shao Hua, who was pouring the wine.
"You call the Jiangzhou Winery and tell them to give you two hundred more boxes of wine this quarter. If they have any doubts, have them contact me."
"Thank you, Chairman Zhou!"
Shao Hua was overjoyed. The special supply Yugong liquor was currently priceless, with a bottle being speculated at over seven hundred, but you couldn't buy it in the market even with money.
Even for their Shanghai reception center, which had a special status, they were only sold a certain amount each quarter, and you couldn't get even one more bottle if you wanted. Sometimes, when some less important figures stayed at the reception center and wanted to drink Yugong liquor, they only had the ordinary type.
If there really was no special supply type and important figures came, she could only go to the Peace Hotel to borrow some. Whenever she talked about this, she was very envious. Because the son of the boss of the Jinjiang Group had a good relationship with Zhou Andong.
Therefore, whether it was the Peace Hotel or the Jinjiang Hotel, they got much more special supply Yugong liquor than the reception center.
Soon, the waiter served the dishes.
"Chairman Zhou, I'll toast you first." Sun Ximing picked up the wine glass, tilted his head, and drank the wine.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Andong naturally couldn't be cowardly. He raised his wine glass to signal and also drank it in one gulp.
"Mayor Sun is famous for his massive capacity, and Chairman Zhou is a winery director, so his drinking capacity definitely won't be bad."
Liu Guangjun held the wine glass and said very helplessly.
"My drinking capacity definitely can't compare to yours, but I've also drunk this glass of wine."
Tang Lin held the wine glass, looking at this one and then that one. If he drank slowly, with his drinking capacity, half a catty or eight taels wouldn't be a problem.
But if he drank like this in one gulp, he estimated that after two glasses, less than four taels of wine, he would be confused.
"Big Linzi!" Sun Ximing said dissatisfiedly: "We've all drunk, what are you doing holding your wine glass?"
Tang Lin said with a bitter face: "I ate something bad yesterday, and my stomach is still uncomfortable now. Can we drink slowly?"
Sun Ximing said with a smile: "What do you think?"
"Fine, I'll drink!" Tang Lin gritted his teeth and drank the wine in one breath.
Sun Ximing had a good relationship with his second uncle. If he didn't drink this glass of wine today, who knows when this old guy would put eye drops on him in front of his second uncle.
Especially since this guy didn't have any bottom line; no matter what bad thing happened, whether it was done by him or not, he would put it on his head, and then he would be caught by his second uncle, either scolded severely or kicked in the butt twice.
Although he was heartless and didn't care about being scolded, and his butt meat was thick so he didn't feel the kicks, he felt aggrieved in his heart because some things weren't done by him at all.
"That's right." Watching Tang Lin drink the wine, Sun Ximing nodded with satisfaction: "Chairman Zhou, you should have already understood that Shanghai has repositioned The Bund and launched the major building replacement project."
"I've understood it."
Zhou Andong also talked about the Overseas Trust Bank of Hong Kong opening a branch in Shanghai and Jiandong International also establishing an angel investment in Shanghai.
After Sun Ximing heard this, he was so happy that he picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp again.
"Chairman Zhou, as long as these two projects can land, you can state any conditions. Within the maximum limit of not violating policies, I will give you the green light."
Zhou Andong said helplessly: "Mayor Sun, on the way here, I told Executive Vice Mayor Liu that I am a Chinese born and raised in the black soil, eating sorghum rice and drinking the water of the Jiangzhou River.
Although I represent capital, my heart is as red as it can be. So, since I have arrived in Shanghai, I will do my best to facilitate cooperation and land the investment here."
"It's settled then." Sun Ximing laughed: "Chairman Zhou, are you interested in bringing your urban complex project to Pudong?"
Zhou Andong raised his eyebrows: "There's no problem with this, but it must be a plot of land by the river, and it must be in Lujiazui."
Sun Ximing nodded: "We'll go take a look tomorrow. You can pick whichever one you want."
"Okay!" Since Sun Ximing said so, Zhou Andong naturally wouldn't be polite.
The meal lasted for more than three hours. After eating, the matter was discussed, and Zhou Andong went straight back to his room.
……………………
At nine o'clock the next morning, Zhou Andong, Sun Ximing, Liu Guangjun, and many accompanying relevant leaders arrived in Pudong.
Zhou Andong stood by the river. Not far away was the Oriental Pearl Tower, which had already been topped out and would be officially put into use in May next year.
And the Jin Mao Tower would start construction in May this year, as well as the World Financial Center, which was next to the Jin Mao Tower.
However, the World Financial Center was a project led by the little devils, and they wouldn't come over to invest until next year.
Construction started at the beginning of 1997, and by the end of the year, it encountered the financial crisis, and then construction stopped.
"Chairman Zhou!" Liu Guangjun said: "The plot of land that has already been enclosed in front is the Jin Mao Tower, covering an area of 24,000 square meters, with a total construction area of 290,000 square meters.
Among them, the main building has 88 floors, a height of 420.5 meters, and about 200,000 square meters. The architectural appearance is a pagoda-style building, and construction will officially start on the 10th of next month. Chairman Zhou, are you interested in building a skyscraper, too?"
Zhou Andong's heart moved. The total investment of the World Financial Center was 1 billion US dollars. He had no problem taking this money out. Why should he make it cheap for the little devils in such a good place?
"Mayor Sun, Executive Vice Mayor Liu, I want to build the tallest building in Asia here. What do you think?"
Liu Guangjun said a bit excitedly: "Chairman Zhou, you're not joking?"
Zhou Andong said seriously: "I never joke when talking about business."
"Good!" Sun Ximing said happily: "Chairman Zhou, you pick whichever plot of land you want."
"It's the plot of land next to the Jin Mao Tower, about 30,000 square meters."
Zhou Andong pointed to the Jin Mao Tower, and then stomped his feet.
"And here, I want to build an urban complex."
The location where he stood was the later Tomson Riviera. Then this guy drew a circle with his hand and included the plot of land of the COFCO Seaview Mansion into the circle.
"I want this whole area."
Liu Guangjun and Sun Ximing looked at each other. The area of this piece wasn't small, but at this time, it was still a piece of wasteland. Zhou Andong drew such a circle, and they didn't know how happy they were in their hearts.
"No problem."
Then, the group walked forward along the river, chatting as they walked. Just like this, without any tense atmosphere, the investment was negotiated.
Last night, Zhou Andong only needed to be able to give the shareholders an explanation, and he wouldn't make too many demands. They also only thought it was polite words.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Andong said so, and he really did so. There was only one requirement, which was the preferential policies for foreign businessmen; give him whatever they had. ===== CHAPTER 1689 =====
