Chapter 1105
Su Xinghui discussed it in a low voice with Comrade Comrade Comrade Qi Jian, and Comrade Comrade Comrade Qi Jian asked him to introduce the situation of Pengjiawanzhen to Noel, as well as some preferential policies that could be offered to the Notte United Steel Company.
Su Xinghui said: "Respected Mr. Noel, we are very happy that you have come to our Pengjiawanzhen for an inspection, and we also thank you for your trust in our Pengjiawanzhen. Our Pengjiawanzhen is a place very suitable for building a large-scale steel enterprise. It has convenient transportation, abundant water sources, and flat, open terrain. It has all the conditions required to build a large-scale steel enterprise. Moreover, we have many preferential policies for foreign-funded enterprises. As for sales, you have even less to worry about. China is currently developing vigorously, and no matter how much steel there is, it can be consumed."
Speaking of this, Su Xinghui also made a big-belly gesture with both hands, which was very vivid, making Noel and his entourage laugh.
Noel said: "Mayor Su, after hearing your words, I am very optimistic about our future cooperation. Can you take us to your town to have a look now?"
Su Xinghui nodded and said: "Of course, I would be very happy to be at your service!"
Su Xinghui led Noel and his party out of the town government compound, and Hou Guangbi also came out with them. Su Xinghui said to Hou Guangbi: "Grandpa Hou, why don't you stay in the town government to rest? Please don't tire yourself out."
Su Xinghui was full of gratitude to Hou Guangbi now; Hou Guangbi had helped him too much. Before returning to France, Hou Guangbi had indeed said that he would find a few friends to invest for him, but he never expected that Hou Guangbi would bring him such a behemoth all at once.
An annual output of more than ten million tons of steel enterprise, what kind of concept is this? The annual output value is almost several billion US dollars. In the nineties, this was definitely a behemoth.
Any steel enterprise they invested in Pengjiawanzhen would be far from comparable to the Yongchun Steel Plant, not to mention that the technical content of Notte United Steel Company was far stronger than that of the Yongchun Steel Plant.
The Yongchun Steel Plant was just that kind of long-process crude steel production enterprise with the simplest technology, which could not be called any technical content at all, while Notte United Steel Company was one of the largest steel enterprises in Europe. After more than a hundred years of development, their technology for producing various special steels had developed to a very high level.
It can be said that if Pengjiawanzhen could keep Notte United Steel Company and invest in building a factory here, it would be entirely possible to fill the domestic gap in special steel, and through some means, it seemed possible to let domestic technology in this area go to a higher level.
By then, this steel plant project would not only bring huge output value, but the other implications contained within it would be even stronger.
Now in Su Xinghui's heart, he had already regarded Hou Guangbi as a true elder.
Su Xinghui led Noel and his party through the town street. Noel looked at this town street with great interest. The real development of Pengjiawanzhen was only in this year, and the town street had not changed too much, but now there were more and more people on the street, and there were more and more construction sites on both sides of the street, and the whole town street revealed a vibrant atmosphere.
Along the way, Noel looked at the construction sites on both sides of the road and was amazed. In France today, such scenes could not be seen.
France's industrialization had been basically completed, and its infrastructure was already very perfect, much more developed than China's, but precisely because of this, it did not have the vitality of China, which was in the midst of development.
Noel was a person with very keen insight. Of course, he could see that China was still very underdeveloped, and this Pengjiawan was an even more underdeveloped area in China, but he could just see the vitality here. He could see that although the economy here was not developed, it was very active.
This could be seen from the construction sites on both sides of the road and the hurried footsteps of pedestrians.
Su Xinghui introduced the construction sites along the road to Noel along the way. Noel looked at these construction sites with great interest and nodded frequently. He asked: "Mayor Su, were these projects introduced after you became mayor?"
Su Xinghui smiled and said: "I suppose so."
Noel said: "Mayor Su, originally when I saw that you were so young and became mayor, I still had some doubts, but today I met you, and now seeing the scene here, I think you are a very capable person and fully qualified for this mayor position!"
Su Xinghui smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Noel."
Unknowingly, the group walked to the construction site of the Changjiangdaqiao. Su Xinghui pointed to the rendering of the project and said: "Mr. Noel, in about three more years, a magnificent Changjiangdaqiao will stand here, connecting the two sides of the Changjiang. By then, Pengjiawanzhen will become a transportation hub. You see, is this place very suitable for starting a large-scale steel enterprise?"
Noel did not answer. He walked along a crossroad to the river embankment, looking at the surging river water under the embankment, looking at the Changjiangdaqiao construction site behind the embankment, and looking at the vast plain as far as the eye could see opposite the construction site. Of course, he could see that this place was indeed very suitable for starting a large-scale steel enterprise.
Noel pointed to the construction site opposite and said: "What kind of project is that?"
Su Xinghui said: "That is a logistics and warehousing company set up here by the Xie Group from Hong Kong."
"Hong Kong Xie Group?" Noel said: "That is a big company. Did they also invest here?"
Su Xinghui said: "Yes, do you think setting up a logistics and warehousing company here is a good project?"
Noel nodded and said: "They have very good vision. Setting up a logistics and warehousing company here could not be more suitable."
