Chapter 1077
Anyway, Yu Ruizhi and the others only said to show support. Showing support was giving Young Master Yu and the others face. Presumably, Young Master Yu wouldn't force them to invest.
They did want to invest in the interior, but the prerequisite was that this place was worth their investment and could make them money. Otherwise, why would they invest?
They originally just wanted to go through the motions. After they arrived, they couldn't hide their arrogance; this was just an event held by a town government, not worth their attention. But now, having seen Su Xinghui in person and heard some of his magical deeds, they had to start paying attention to Su Xinghui.
Yu Ruizhi said, "What I said is naturally true. These are things that cannot be faked."
Xie Junqiang asked, "Town Mayor Su, your materials say that your town is about to build a Changjiangdaqiao and a highway?"
Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, the Changjiangdaqiao and the highway have already started construction. It is expected that in three to four years, the Changjiangdaqiao and the highway will be open to traffic. By then, Pengjiawanzhen will be able to become a place with accessible transportation in all directions. This is a geomantic treasure land. If you invest in our place, you will definitely make money."
Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang both nodded. The color brochures printed by Pengjiawanzhen had maps of the geographical location of Shangjun County and Pengjiawanzhen. They could naturally see that this was indeed a geomantic treasure land. It was located in the middle and lower reaches of the Changjiang River plain, in the Central China region. As long as the Changjiangdaqiao and the highway were built, this would be a place where goods converged from all directions.
Mi Xiuyuan said, "Town Mayor Su, do you have any preferential policies for investment promotion in your town?"
Su Xinghui was very happy. He naturally knew that this was when Mi Xiuyuan truly started to become interested in investing in their Pengjiawanzhen, which was why he asked about specific preferential policies.
Su Xinghui then introduced some preferential policies to Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang. These preferential policies were also printed in the materials, but they were all relatively common ones. Su Xinghui then introduced some preferential policies for specific industries.
After hearing this, Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang looked at each other and said, "Town Mayor Su, it seems we have to go and disturb your Pengjiawanzhen."
Su Xinghui was overjoyed and said, "Welcome, both of you, to be guests in our Pengjiawanzhen!"
Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang's meaning was very clear: they were going to Pengjiawanzhen for an investment inspection. Although even if they went for an inspection, it didn't necessarily mean they would invest, this was already a very sincere move, indicating a clear investment intention.
Su Xinghui's talk with Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang went very smoothly, and the others also chatted well with the investors who arrived today. Mai Yonglun, Xiong Ruisong, Qiao Dashu, and Shang Jianhong all helped a lot. They drummed up support on the sidelines, and the materials printed by Pengjiawanzhen were also very attractive. Most of the investors present expressed that they would go to Pengjiawanzhen to take a look.
In short, this investment promotion meeting was a very successful event, basically exceeding the goals Su Xinghui had expected, which made Li Daqing, Liu Yongjun, and the others extremely excited.
That night, Su Xinghui invited Yu Ruizhi and the others, as well as Shang Jianhong and others, to a meal at the Hudong Provincial Office in Pengcheng as a token of his gratitude. During the meal, he raised his glass and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. Our funds are limited, so we can only treat you to a meal here. Let this glass of wine be a thank you to everyone!"
Everyone raised their glasses together and drank a glass of wine with Su Xinghui. This gratitude banquet was finished in a lively atmosphere. After the meal, Su Xinghui found Yu Ruizhi and said, "Brother Yu, I'm returning to Shangjun County tomorrow. What about you?"
Yu Ruizhi said, "We still have to stay here for two days, and then go to Shangjun County with Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang for an inspection. You go back and prepare."
Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Fine, I know. Brother Yu, thank you!"
Yu Ruizhi laughed, "Alright, don't be so formal. Who are we to each other? I just hope you can get more investment and quickly surpass that Tian Xiaopeng, and don't let him show off anymore. I feel uncomfortable just looking at his appearance."
Su Xinghui nodded with a smile, "I will definitely try."
Tian Xiaopeng was currently feeling troubled. Ever since he came to Shangjun County, there hadn't been many days he wasn't troubled. Thinking back to the years he worked at the National Development and Reform Commission, how smooth everything was for him! Why were there constant troubles after he came to Shangjun County?
His father, Governor Tian Chengzu, had even come to Shangjun County in person to support him, and the effect was indeed not bad. Now there were many more cadres leaning toward Tian Xiaopeng. However, in the matter of pushing the steel plant to land in Shangjun County, the progress was still not great. Chen Hongfu had been firmly opposed, and Zhang Kaishan was also silently resisting the pressure brought by Tian Chengzu.
It was fortunate that Tian Chengzu's arrival gave Pan Yongchun a reassurance, so Pan Yongchun patiently continued to stay at the County Committee Guest House. However, his performance was already quite impatient. He was picky about the food and accommodation conditions in Shangjun County and was not satisfied with anything. In his spare time, Tian Xiaopeng had to frequently go and appease this President Pan.
And today, Tian Xiaopeng also learned about the situation of the investment promotion meeting Su Xinghui held in Pengcheng through his own news channels. Originally, Tian Xiaopeng felt that Su Xinghui holding this investment promotion meeting was just grandstanding. The Shangjun County Government hadn't even gone to Pengcheng to promote investment; could a town government like yours go to Pengcheng and attract investment?
Last year, the Yulin Municipal Government once organized an investment promotion meeting in Pengcheng. However, as far as Tian Xiaopeng knew, that investment promotion meeting was completely a sightseeing trip for some leaders of Yulin City to take their families to Pengcheng. The investment promotion meeting had no effect at all. Later, they just got a few small projects of a few million to muddle through, while the expenses at that time exceeded 100,000.
If the investment promotion meeting held by Yulin City had such an effect, how many investors could you, a Pengjiawanzhen, attract by holding an investment promotion meeting?
Tian Xiaopeng estimated that this investment promotion meeting definitely wouldn't have many people attending, just going through the motions. But unexpectedly, he received news today that this investment promotion meeting was held exceptionally successfully, with no less than a hundred investors attending, and most of them had already decided to go to Pengjiawanzhen for an inspection, which made Tian Xiaopeng even more troubled.
Tian Xiaopeng knew that if Su Xinghui really made some dazzling achievements in investment promotion, then whether his 300 million steel plant landed in Shangjun County seemed not so important anymore. He originally wanted to use this huge investment to make a splash, but if Su Xinghui also attracted a large amount of investment, wouldn't that immediately overshadow Tian Xiaopeng?
By then, it wouldn't sound good. As a county mayor, he couldn't even compare to a town mayor in investment promotion. This would definitely spread like wildfire in Shangjun County. Tian Xiaopeng didn't doubt this at all.
Tian Xiaopeng paced in his office like a trapped beast again. He felt that ever since he came to Shangjun County, he seemed to have been caught in an invisible net, unable to break free, which made him feel some regret in his heart. Should he not have made the decision to come to Shangjun County?
Originally, he wanted to come to Shangjun County to pick this peach that looked plump and juicy. But unexpectedly, behind the peach, there seemed to be a beast guarding it, making him unable to pick the peach smoothly. It seemed he had underestimated these "country bumpkins" in Shangjun County.
He had just had some thoughts of regret, but they were immediately suppressed by himself. Since he had already come to Shangjun County, there was nothing to regret. What he needed to do now was how to deal with these things.
Tian Xiaopeng looked gentle and refined, but in reality, he was a person with a very tenacious character. No matter the situation, he would never easily admit defeat.
Tian Xiaopeng was troubled here, while Su Xinghui's mood was quite good.
Two days after the investment promotion meeting, Su Xinghui brought Li Daqing and the others back to Pengjiawanzhen. After returning to the town government, Su Xinghui reported the situation of the investment promotion meeting in Pengcheng to the town leaders at the expanded meeting of the town party committee.
When the town leaders heard that this investment promotion meeting had achieved such great results, most of them showed joy on their faces. After all, this was the political achievement of their town, which was good for everyone. The only ones who didn't look very happy were Yang Huakai and Tong Yuejin.
