Chapter 491: Full Marks for Political Credibility!

~9 min read 1,665 words

Two days later, Zhu Junting arrived in Suiyuan County as promised.

Inside the car, the Secretary handed the documents to her.

Zhu Junting quickly flipped through the documents, her brows furrowed; the company's analysis report on investing in Suiyuan was not optimistic.

The Secretary reported in a low voice, "General Manager Zhu, according to preliminary investigations, the Suiyuan West City District is extremely backward, transportation is inconvenient, and everyone lacks confidence in this project."

As Zhu Junting looked through the materials, she knew her subordinates would not deliberately smear the place, and her originally high enthusiasm instantly cooled by half.

"Whether to invest or not, let's decide after the site visit."

She thought to herself, since she had already made an appointment with Tang Ye, she would just treat it as meeting an old friend.

The Suiyuan County Government attached great importance to the visit of Haihua Group; County Party Secretary Han Guangyao and County Magistrate Gao Hong both appeared in the reception team.

When communicating with Tang Ye previously, Han Guangyao found his ideas somewhat unexpected.

Originally, Han Guangyao planned to renovate the old city district, but Tang Ye proposed building a new city district directly to create a new landmark for Suiyuan.

Gao Hong felt this idea was too bold; after all, the West City District was extremely desolate, and he did not believe Haihua Group would dump money into a "godforsaken" place.

"County Magistrate Gao, I have to say, County Magistrate Tang is quite good at putting on a show," Nie Kai said.

Gao Hong glanced at him coldly: "What use is a facade?"

Nie Kai laughed, "I heard that Zhu Junting of Haihua Group has a very good relationship with Tang Ye."

Gao Hong sneered and did not respond.

He thought to himself: no matter how good the relationship is, it is impossible for Zhu Junting to throw money into the water for nothing.

The group arrived at the conference room.

At a signal from Gao Hong, Lin Heng turned off the lights, and the screen began to play the video Tang Ye had specially produced for the West City District development plan.

Unlike the promotional video for the Resort Project, this video had few humanistic elements and focused more on commercial potential.

Tang Ye planned to build a complex in the West City District integrating medical care, education, commerce, and housing.

The team members who came with Zhu Junting were all well-informed, but when they saw the planning promotional video for Suiyuan County, they all showed expressions of surprise.

They did not expect the investment promotion preparations in Suiyuan to be done so professionally and meticulously!

"Next, let's go to the site and take a look!"

Tang Ye was quite satisfied with the effect of the presentation.

He could clearly perceive that everyone's attitude toward the project had shifted.

They arrived at the planned area of the West City District.

Zhu Junting was dumbfounded.

It turned out that everything Tang Ye said so eloquently just now was completely fooling her.

Before her eyes, there were low houses everywhere, and the roads were full of potholes.

When the wind blew, her mouth was full of dirt!

Zhu Junting glanced at Tang Ye, "County Magistrate Tang, you spoke very well in the conference room just now, but here at the site, it is quite a big discrepancy from what was in the plan!"

Tang Ye and the others were currently standing under a huge planning billboard.

Tang Ye took a pre-prepared color drawing out of his briefcase and said to Zhu Junting with a smile, "General Manager Zhu, take this drawing I gave you and compare it with this area planning map."

On the drawing, rows of high-rise buildings were depicted.

Zhu Junting placed the drawing over the dilapidated streets and buildings, and the scene before her eyes indeed instantly took on a different visual presentation.

Tang Ye observed the changes in Zhu Junting's expression and continued, "General Manager Zhu, as a woman with commercial vision, you should know how to look at urban development from a dynamic perspective."

Although the West City District appears backward now, as long as the infrastructure keeps up, it will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes.

Although the Suiyuan county seat is livelier than here, the cost of development is very high; first of all, demolishing the buildings is a significant investment.

The West City doesn't need to be that troublesome.

When drawing on a blank sheet of paper, you don't need an eraser; you can directly outline the pattern you want.

This place is only five kilometers away from the Industrial Park; in the future, the Industrial Park will accommodate hundreds of thousands of employees, and these people will form a massive purchasing power."

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Junting's mouth: "County Magistrate Tang, you have a great vision for commercial planning. However, for this project, we need to discuss it internally and also secure the consent of the shareholders; please give me some time."

Tang Ye smiled: "I understand. But I suggest you make a decision as soon as possible; after all, there is never a shortage of investors for projects with potential."

Zhu Junting smiled back: "I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

The Secretary standing beside Zhu Junting, however, looked at Tang Ye with a complex expression.

She thought to herself, this County Magistrate Tang is truly thick-skinned!

In such a desolate place, he actually lied with his eyes open, and his face didn't even turn red!

After sending off the Haihua Group inspection team, Tang Ye knocked on the door of Han Guangyao's office.

Han Guangyao looked at Tang Ye, his eyes not as enthusiastic as before, and said indifferently, "Please sit, wait a moment, let me finish reading this document in my hand."

Tang Ye knew that Han Guangyao was unhappy and was deliberately giving him the cold shoulder.

After waiting for a few minutes, Han Guangyao took off his glasses and smiled faintly, "You really know how to create surprises."

Tang Ye patiently explained to Han Guangyao.

"Secretary Han, you previously said you wanted to renovate the old city; I have done research, and it requires a huge amount of demolition costs, which will further worsen the already strained financial situation.

The old city can be renovated, but we can prioritize opening up a new battlefield.

The focus of Suiyuan's economic growth will revolve around the Industrial Park; I suggest concentrating superior resources to vigorously develop the West City District.

According to my estimates, if we secure investment for the West City District, we can expect results within three years. We will all have the opportunity to see the new city become a reality."

Three years?

If he could see results within his term, this undoubtedly had great appeal to Han Guangyao.

Han Guangyao was stunned for a moment, then silent for a while, "Is Haihua Group's investment intention strong?"

Tang Ye shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't have absolute confidence either. But only by working hard at something can there be hope!"

Han Guangyao nodded slightly, "Fine, then let's do it according to your wishes! If there is no need to use fiscal funds and the problem can be solved entirely by external funding, that would be even better."

Tang Ye noticed the complexity in Han Guangyao's mood.

Having a capable subordinate is very fortunate, but it also brings pressure to the person in charge.

"By the way, are you going to Qiongjin to attend a dinner party tonight?"

"Yes, I am having a meal with Qiao Wansen."

"My son is going to Qiongjin for school."

"I will drop him off at school while I'm on my way."

"Mm, then I'll trouble you!"

"Secretary, why are you being so polite with me!"

Tang Ye had met Han Guangyao's son a few times, and he thought to himself that it was just a matter of convenience.

Han Guangyao entrusting a private matter to Tang Ye was also a form of trust!

For the dinner party that night, Tang Ye invited Qiao Wansen and Liu Yu; with these three people gathered together, it was naturally a fierce battle.

Tang Ye managed to reach the hotel before he clung to the toilet and vomited messily.

The next day, after waking up.

Tang Ye remembered the important business and dialed Zhu Junting's phone number.

"President Zhu, how have you considered the project?"

Zhu Junting said with a smile, "I believe in you, and I feel that if you were always in Suiyuan, there would definitely be no problem. But I also have concerns; you might leave at any time, and I have no confidence in whether others could handle the project well after you are gone. The construction process of the five-star hotel in Pinghu encountered quite a few troubles; if you had been there, those problems could all have been solved easily!"

This was a very realistic issue!

When a person is in office, the administration is there; affairs change with the person, and for an investment, this is a factor that must be considered.

Tang Ye couldn't help but laugh, then his tone became solemn, "Thank you for your recognition, President Zhu! Wherever I work, I must follow the instructions of the organization; I cannot promise that I won't be transferred. However, I can guarantee that as long as you are willing to invest in Xicheng, no matter where I am transferred, I will pay attention to the development here."

Zhu Junting was slightly taken aback; although the words of government officials are not to be trusted, she knew that Tang Ye's words were worthy of trust.

Although Tang Ye had left Pinghu Town, when problems arose with the land requisition and demolition in Pinghu some time ago, Tang Ye still went back to participate in resolving the matter.

From this point of view, Tang Ye's political credibility could be given a perfect score!
