In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.
He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...
Faced with Sun Zhouzheng's invitation, Guo Fengsheng's gaze involuntarily fell on Lin Yifeng.
Who is Sun Zhouzheng?
As a member of the leadership team in Shuiyun Town, his ability to read people is naturally quite outstanding. When he saw Guo Fengsheng's gaze fall directly on Lin Yifeng, he immediately understood the relationship between the two.
The general manager of the Makino City region, who owns 18 stores and has an annual profit of nearly 20 million yuan, is actually Lin Yifeng's subordinate.
"No wonder the leaders of Makino City are so protective of Comrade Kobayashi."
"So he's the real owner of Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream."
Sun Zhouzheng's smile deepened. He might not be very confident if he were to discuss investment with Guo Fengsheng.
But if he were to discuss investment with Lin Yifeng, he would be more confident.
Because Guo Fengsheng is not from Makino City; he is from a neighboring city.
Lin Yifeng is not only a native of Muye City, but also a resident of their Shuiyun Town.
With this connection, it would be easier to negotiate than with Guo Fengsheng.
"Would you like to join us for a meal, Comrade Xiaolin?"
Sun Zhouzheng immediately extended an invitation to Lin Yifeng, who smiled but looked at Sun Zhouzheng without replying.
It might be awkward if it were someone else.
But Sun Zhouzheng was someone who worked within the system; how could he survive in the system without being thick-skinned? He casually said some nice things and continued to extend invitations to Lin Yifeng.
"I'd be more than happy to have a meal with Mayor Sun!"
As the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face. Sun Zhou invited Lin Yifeng twice, and Lin Yifeng naturally accepted the invitation with a smile on his face.
Paishitou Village is not close to Shuiyun Town; it takes three to four hours to travel there by diesel tricycle.
The meal was eaten at the village committee of Paishitou Village. The dishes were simple home-style cooking, and there was no alcohol. For people like Lin Yifeng and Sun Zhouzheng, this was quite meager.
But Sun Zhouzheng didn't care at all. After having a simple meal with Lin Yifeng and others, he explained his purpose in the village committee's meeting room.
"Comrade Xiaolin, Comrade Xiaoguo."
"Could you support the development of your hometown?"
The phrase "hometown builders" is worth pondering. Lin Yifeng did not answer Sun Zhouzheng's question, but continued to listen, wanting to know exactly what aspects Sun Zhouzheng meant by hometown construction.
If it's Wallace or Mixue Ice Cream, then I'm sorry.
Lin Yifeng wouldn't do it.
Shuiyun Town is too poor; "luxury" businesses like Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream can't operate there.
Unless Shuiyun Town develops for another one or two decades.
Seeing that Lin Yifeng did not answer immediately, Sun Zhousheng was not disappointed.
If a simple sentence could persuade Lin Yifeng, an entrepreneur with an annual income of ten to twenty million, to invest in Shuiyun Town, then Shuiyun Town wouldn't be the poorest town in Muye City.
Thinking carefully about his words, Sun Zhouzheng said cautiously, "Comrade Xiao Lin, Comrade Xiao Guo."
As you both know, this is the current situation in Shuiyun Town. If you are willing to support the development of your hometown, our leadership team will provide you with the best possible treatment.
"At the same time, we can also guarantee that something like what happened to Chang Tso-long will absolutely not happen to either of them."
"We will fully support the two of you in investing and building in our Shuiyun Town, and there will be absolutely no obstacles in our way."
Provide them with good treatment and full support?
Sun Zhouzheng said it, but it also seems like he didn't.
In this day and age, which town or village can't offer investors good treatment?
Take Yuntaishan Town in Shanyang City, which is also a township, for example.
Backed by Yuntai Mountain, Yuntaishan Town was one of the few towns in this era that could rely on tourism for its livelihood. Yuntaishan Town's GDP was more than ten times that of Shuiyun Town. As such a town, the mayor of Yuntaishan Town also gave Lin Yifeng very preferential treatment.
It was precisely because of this kind of treatment that Lin Yifeng decided to open Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream in Yuntaishan Town, Shanyang City.
Yuntaishan Town in Shanyang City is much richer than Shuiyun Town. Investing in a Wallace restaurant there would be more profitable than continuing to invest in a Wallace restaurant in Muye City.
Therefore, Lin Yifeng had no interest in Sun Zhouzheng's vague explanation.
He is indeed from Shuiyun Town.
He is also willing to support the development of his hometown.
But the problem is, I'm not a saint; I, Lin Yifeng, am just an ordinary person.
Greedy for money and lustful, yet possessing a strong sense of righteousness.
If you offer me a very good deal, I will definitely support the development of my hometown.
Your statements are vague and ambiguous; how can I support them?
As an entrepreneur, my first priority is to make money.
After all, if I couldn't make money, you wouldn't be coming to me.
Lin Yifeng did not directly refuse, but vaguely indicated that he was willing to support the development of his hometown, but some things were not up to him alone.
Whether Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream can come to Shuiyun Town still needs to be discussed internally.
Sun Zhouzheng was also helpless in the face of Lin Yifeng's answer.
He really wanted to give Lin Yifeng the best preferential policies, even providing him with a free shop and exempting Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream from taxes.
But the problem is...
Shuiyun Town is too poor.
There are some things he can't promise.
"That's a real pity, but we would still very much welcome you back to help build your hometown."
"I hope we'll have the opportunity to work together again in the future!"
Sun Zhouzheng said with a regretful expression, "Shuiyun Town is indeed too poor right now, and there's nothing worth mentioning."
Even people from their own hometown can't be kept here.
