Chapter 1079
Many town leaders also echoed Qi Jian's statement. Could they not be happy? Official promotion was a process of moving radishes to different holes. If the radish in front couldn't move, could these radishes behind move forward?
If Pengjiawanzhen's GDP surpassed Chengguan Town and ranked first in the county, then this big radish Qi Jian would most likely have to move to a different position. If he moved to a different position, he would naturally be transferred to the county, and then many radishes behind could move forward in turn.
Su Xinghui's prestige in Pengjiawanzhen suddenly rose to the highest point again.
Su Xinghui said with a smile, "Secretary, these investors have only agreed to come to Pengjiawanzhen for an inspection. Before the investment truly lands, it cannot be considered a complete success. Today I am reporting the situation to everyone, hoping that the comrades in the town can work together to do a good job in receiving these investors who are coming for an inspection and strive to keep them in Pengjiawanzhen."
Qi Jian nodded and said, "This is for sure. I'll state my position first: I fully support it! Town Mayor, from now on, just treat me as a small soldier under you. Whatever you need me to do, just say it!"
Other town leaders also actively expressed their support for Su Xinghui and were determined to do a good job in reception work.
Two days later, those investors who agreed to come to Pengjiawanzhen for an inspection began to arrive in Pengjiawan one after another. Suddenly, Pengjiawanzhen became lively again.
Fortunately, over the past year, due to the rapid economic development of Pengjiawanzhen, more and more people from all walks of life had come to Pengjiawanzhen. The ordinary people living along the streets in the town spontaneously renovated their own residences and opened many family hotels. Therefore, there was no shortage of places for these investors to eat and stay.
Almost all the cadres in the town took action and participated in the reception work for the investors.
On this day, Yu Ruizhi and the others came to Pengjiawan. Naturally, Mi Xiuyuan, Xie Junqiang, and their few subordinates came with them.
Su Xinghui personally received Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang. This time, the faint arrogance between Mi and Xie's brows didn't look so obvious.
As soon as he saw Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang, Su Xinghui hurriedly went up to meet them and reached out his right hand to both of them: "Welcome, welcome. Welcome, two presidents, to our small place of Pengjiawan for an inspection. If there is any neglect, please don't blame me!"
The two shook hands with Su Xinghui respectively, and the group entered Su Xinghui's office and sat down as guests and hosts. Su Xinghui made tea for them. Mi Xiuyuan said, "Town Mayor Su, we also took a look on the way when we came to Pengjiawanzhen this time. The biggest impression is that Pengjiawanzhen is now a large construction site."
Xie Junqiang also nodded and said, "Yes, there are many construction sites currently under construction in your Pengjiawanzhen."
There were naturally many construction sites under construction in Pengjiawanzhen. The vegetable wholesale market, the electrical appliance factory, the expanded factory area of the winery, the Changjiangdaqiao, the highway, and other engineering projects had all started construction. The ordinary people in the town who saw business opportunities also successively renovated their own houses, and some were even building new houses.
Now there were more and more floating population in the town, and the demand for commerce was definitely getting larger and larger. Hotels, restaurants, small shops, stores, etc., were all needed. Who didn't want to earn more money?
Su Xinghui laughed, "A large construction site is good. A large construction site shows that our Pengjiawanzhen's economy is active and the economic prospects are good. I wish Pengjiawanzhen would always be a large construction site."
Mi Xiuyuan said, "Hmm, that's well said. It seems that your Pengjiawanzhen's economy is indeed very active. What Town Mayor Su said in Pengcheng that day was not empty talk."
Su Xinghui said, "Whether it is empty talk or not, it's not up to me to say. It's better for us to see it with our own eyes. President Mi, President Xie, how about this? After you have lunch and rest, I will take you around the town in the afternoon."
Mi Xiuyuan raised his wrist to check his watch. He looked up at Su Xinghui and said, "Town Mayor Su, it's only past ten o'clock. Let's go around the town now. As for eating, there's no rush."
Although Mi Xiuyuan had a bit of Hong Kong arrogance, he was, after all, a business elite, and his style of doing things was vigorous and resolute, which was completely different from the sluggish work style of the interior government. This point was still very much to Su Xinghui's liking.
Su Xinghui said to wait until they had eaten and rested before going to see the town, which was also a polite way of saying it. Since Mi Xiuyuan himself said to go and see immediately, he naturally followed the trend. He smiled and said, "President Mi's style is truly vigorous and resolute. Fine, then let's go and see now."
In the hour or so in the morning, Su Xinghui took Mi Xiuyuan to see the project site of the electrical appliance factory. Hou Wenhai was a conscientious person who had been staying at the construction site. Seeing Su Xinghui personally bringing people here to see, he hurriedly came out to meet them.
Su Xinghui introduced the identities of both sides to each other. Hou Wenhai said, "Town Mayor Su, there are quite a few people coming to our place for an inspection these few days."
Su Xinghui laughed, "President Hou, didn't we go to Pengcheng to hold an investment promotion meeting a few days ago? So there are quite a few investors coming for an inspection these days. If there is any disturbance, please don't blame me, President Hou."
Hou Wenhai laughed, "What kind of disturbance is this? Whatever you need me to do, just say it."
Su Xinghui pointed to Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang and said, "Then today, please talk to our President Mi and President Xie about your investment here, and strengthen their confidence."
Hou Wenhai nodded with a smile, "President Mi, President Xie, let's go, let's go to the construction site and take a look."
Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang had naturally heard of the famous name of the French Hou Group. When they saw in the materials that the French Hou Group had invested in building an electrical appliance factory in Pengjiawanzhen, they were a bit surprised. Therefore, today they were the first to specify to take a look at the construction site of the electrical appliance factory, just wanting to see what exactly the Hou Group had taken a fancy to in Pengjiawanzhen that made them willing to come here to invest.
Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang took the safety helmets handed over by Hou Wenhai himself, said thank you, put on the safety helmets, and followed Hou Wenhai toward the construction site.
While walking, Mi Xiuyuan asked, "President Hou, how did your Hou Group think of coming to Pengjiawanzhen to build a factory at that time?"
Hou Wenhai looked at Su Xinghui with a smile and said, "You didn't ask Town Mayor Su?"
Mi Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "No."
Hou Wenhai said with a smile, "Then let me talk about it. The reason why our Hou Group came to such a small place as Pengjiawan to invest and build a factory is, firstly, because our Hou family's ancestral home is in Shangjun County. President Mi and President Xie can understand this, right?"
Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang both nodded. Hong Kong businessmen also had a strong sense of hometown. Now many Hong Kong businessmen went to the interior to invest, and the first choice was their hometown. This was understandable. Of course, relying solely on the concept of hometown to make them decide to invest was impossible. They were all waiting for Hou Wenhai's follow-up.
Hou Wenhai said, "Second, Pengjiawanzhen's investment environment is quite good, especially now that the Changjiangdaqiao and the highway have started construction. This is a geomantic treasure land. And their town also gave us quite a few preferential policies. Our group believes that investing in Pengjiawanzhen is a cost-effective business."
"Third, and the most important reason, the most important reason is Town Mayor Su."
"Town Mayor Su?" Mi Xiuyuan said, "How so?"
Hou Wenhai then said with a smile, "It can be said that it was Town Mayor Su's personal charm that moved the chairman of our Hou Group, which is my grandfather, Hou Guangbi. My grandfather strongly advocated investing and building a factory in Pengjiawanzhen, which is governed by Town Mayor Su."
Hou Wenhai told Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang about the process of Su Xinghui and Hou Guangbi's interaction, picking the main points, and then said, "Actually, according to natural conditions, Jiangcheng is naturally more suitable for investment than Pengjiawanzhen. However, my grandfather said that Pengjiawanzhen has Town Mayor Su here, so this investment definitely won't let us lose money."
Mi Xiuyuan and Xie Junqiang both nodded thoughtfully.
Su Xinghui said with a smile, "President Hou, you are overpraising me. I am ashamed!"
Hou Wenhai said, "I didn't say a word of overpraise today; it's all from the bottom of my heart! Is there any exaggerated component in what I said?"
