Chapter 1058: The First Political Achievement After Taking Office!

At the same time,

Tang Ye sat on the sofa and set down his teacup.

The television was also broadcasting this special news report.

Tian Xiaomeng, this young girl is really quite good!

The stance presented by the news content questioned and reflected upon the safety issues.

However, the core position stood from the government's perspective, showcasing Yechuan County's ability to respond to emergencies.

Tang Ye sent a text message to Tian Xiaomeng, "Saw the news, thank you, Reporter Tian."

Tian Xiaomeng quickly replied, "You're welcome. Thank you, County Magistrate Tang, for cooperating with the interview."

The cell phone rang.

Tang Ye answered the call, and Dou Qingqing's voice came through.

"Senior, let me tell you some good news: the project to invest in the lock factory in Yechuan County has passed the board of directors. Aiou Group originally planned to invest 20 million, but now they are adding more funds, with the goal of turning the Old Lock Factory into a premier domestic smart lock industry."

Upon hearing this news, Tang Ye felt his spirits lift.

Since arriving in Yechuan County so many days ago, he had only been encountering bad news; he was like a firefighter, putting out fires everywhere, and now he had finally waited for some heartening news.

"Junior, this news of yours is so delightful. By the way, when are you coming to sign the contract?"

"Wednesday, I will come to Yechuan County. For this cooperation, I will sign on behalf of Aiou Group."

"Very well, I will arrange the signing ceremony, see you then!"

"Alright, see you Wednesday!"

After hanging up on Dou Qingqing, Tang Ye hurriedly dialed Han Zhengyi's number.

Han Zhengyi had just finished watching the latest program from News Girl.

"County Magistrate Tang, this time the City Television Station didn't publicize our negatives, but instead promoted that our rescue operation was timely enough; it really is quite a surprise."

"Indeed, the television station was very objective this time." Tang Ye hurriedly brought up the main business, "Secretary Han, there is a matter I need to report to you. The research by Aiou Group previously has had results; they are not only willing to invest in the Old Lock Factory, but are also prepared to add more investment. On Wednesday, Dou Qingqing will come to sign the contract."

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared in Han Zhengyi's eyes, "Really? That is a great piece of news!"

Tang Ye laughed, "I was a bit worried at first, having diverted a sum of funds from the treasury, which affected the salary payments for the county's faculty and civil servants. At this rate, it should still be in time."

Han Zhengyi affirmed, "Signing with Aiou Electric is the most important task at present. I will report to the City Leader later to see if we can elevate the level of the signing ceremony and invite some city-level media to publicize this matter."

Tang Ye knew that Han Zhengyi was deliberately increasing his presence, so he nodded slightly, "Secretary Han is indeed thoughtful!"

After hanging up on Tang Ye,

Han Zhengyi couldn't help but take a deep breath.

If Tang Ye had shown super-strong adaptability in handling the sewage project emergency, it proved he was a deputy who could shoulder heavy responsibilities.

Now, that Aiou Group was going to invest in the Old Lock Factory was truly surprising!

He really hadn't expected that Aiou Group would actually invest in a lock factory.

Because Aiou Group was an enterprise that produced electrical appliances, it would have been understandable if they were investing in something like refrigerators or washing machines.

He hadn't expected them to invest in a lock factory.

Of course, in Tang Ye's plan, Aiou was not investing in the traditional lock industry, but in smart locks.

This was a product for Aiou Electric to blaze a new trail in entering the smart home market.

At present, besides the internet, there was another very hot concept, which was the Internet of Things.

Smart locks utilized sensors, cameras, and other such equipment to turn traditional door locks into brand-new commodities.

In the coming years, real estate would blossom everywhere, and products related to this would see a market explosion.

Although the smart lock industry was niche, it was definitely an industry with room for imagination.

The next morning, Executive Deputy County Magistrate Mao Yu picked up the newspaper on his desk and saw the report about the Yechuan County sewage project.

While smoking, Mao Yu frowned as he finished reading, unable to help but mutter to himself: it's easy to get things done when you have connections in high places; clearly it was a disaster, but because Tang Ye relied on someone above to back him, the disaster instead turned into a good thing.

However, Tang Ye was facing a major difficulty, because he had diverted the wages of faculty and civil servants to the Old Lock Factory to pay compensation to employees, so there was boiling resentment below; if nothing went wrong, when the day for salary payment arrived, someone would definitely come to make trouble.

To distance himself from the situation, Mao Yu had already let word out in advance that the delay in salary payments was Tang Ye's requirement.

He knew this bunch of schoolteachers in Yechuan County very well; if they weren't paid, someone would definitely make trouble.

It wasn't that he hoped for trouble, but that Tang Ye had reached his hand into the treasury only a few days after taking office.

Recently, Tang Ye had the Finance Bureau submit a lot of materials.

Regardless of whether Tang Ye could understand those data or not, Mao Yu felt that his own power had been infringed upon.

Therefore, Mao Yu hoped for an opportunity to prove that Tang Ye's excessive interference in financial issues was not a good thing.

The desk phone rang, and Mao Yu answered it.

"Secretary Han, do you have any instructions?"

"Come to my office."

Mao Yu hung up the phone and walked toward the County Party Secretary's office with light steps.

Walking into the office, he found that Tang Ye was also there. Mao Yu felt quite disdainful in his heart, but still wore a smile on his face, "County Magistrate Tang, you are here too!"

Han Zhengyi pointed to the sofa, "Sit down and talk."

Mao Yu sat down quickly and asked softly, "Is there something important?"

Han Zhengyi nodded slightly, "On Wednesday, the signing ceremony with Aiou Group will be held at the City Guest House. Mayor Jiang and some City Leaders will attend the signing ceremony. Because the venue is at the City Guest House, many things need to be coordinated, such as promotional materials, ceremony rehearsals, and so on.

Although the Municipal Government will also arrange a reception group to cooperate with us, this activity must still be led by us, so you need to coordinate with the other party and do a good job in the preparations for the signing ceremony."

Mao Yu was shocked; Aiou Group planned to invest so quickly?

Holding the signing ceremony in the city meant the investment scale was not small.

Mao Yu feigned great excitement, "That's wonderful. Aiou Group being willing to come to Yechuan County to invest is the best thing possible. Please rest assured, Secretary Han, I will definitely do a good job with the logistical support."

Han Zhengyi nodded slightly, "There is one more thing. Once the funds from Aiou Group are remitted into the fiscal account, the previously misappropriated funds can be replenished. You must also make proper arrangements for this; since there is money now, it must be put in place promptly so as not to affect everyone's livelihood."

Upon hearing this, Mao Yu felt inexplicably dejected.

He had originally hoped to use the misappropriation of funds to corner Tang Ye!

He had not expected Tang Ye's luck to be so good!

Aiou Group intended to sign the contract so quickly, resolving the first political achievement for Tang Ye after taking office!
