Chapter 137

Since we are doing business, we must handle the relationship with the authorities well.

Thanks to its previous lunch box business, Zhengmei Company has dealings with several units. Because of its affordable prices and thoughtful service, it has left a little reputation in the hearts of some leaders and employees.

But this little bit of kindness is obviously not enough. Chen Lanjun hopes that the leaders will pay more attention to Zhengmei Company and be willing to support its development.

After thinking it over, I looked through the current job list of the unit, and a familiar leader's name popped up, Lao Liang, who was the first to order the lunch box.

He is in his prime and has now been promoted to the second-in-command in charge of the industrial department. If he can achieve good results, he can move up a level. Chen Lanjun also visits him during festivals and gives him gifts, so their relationship is not distant. The important thing is that Lao Liang is indeed a good person, a person who wants to make a career, and such a person can be a close friend.

She wanted to deepen her feelings, but for someone like Lao Liang, giving him money would be useless and might even send him to jail. Chen Lanjun asked around to see if Lao Liang had any troubles.

After going around in circles and asking a few people, two of them said, "I think they are worried about the new industrial park."

It turned out that due to the rapid development of Pengcheng City, the original Shekou Industrial Park was already full, with no room for new companies to move in or open factories. Based on this situation, the newly appointed Lao Liang proposed the construction of a new industrial park.

After receiving the proposal, the superior leader encouraged Lao Liang and fully affirmed his enthusiasm, but did not mention the implementation. Lao Liang asked twice, and the leader sighed: "The idea is good, but without financial support, it is just a castle in the air."

If you want to build a new industrial park, it is easy to find land. There are still a lot of undeveloped wild land in Pengcheng City. You can just mark a piece of it. But if you want to turn a piece of wild land into a proper industrial zone, you need to spend a lot of money. First of all, the land needs to be leveled, cement poured, water pipes and wires laid, and then houses built, etc. Each link costs money and requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

When the Shekou Industrial Zone was first built, the central government allocated money and sent in engineers to build it. But now, the central government has no intention of allocating funds, and the bank does not have such a large loan to lend.

A good cook cannot cook without rice, so although Lao Liang’s proposal was good, it was stuck with the word “no money”.

Feng Jun, who was in charge of the company's accounts, came to remind her after hearing this: "Second sister, they don't have the money to develop the new industrial park, and what we have is not enough either. We can't even advance the money to contract the construction."

She was really afraid that her second sister would borrow a large sum of money again to help others with construction. This was different from the last time. Once this amount of money was borrowed, it would definitely be an astronomical figure! Now all the assets of the entire Zhengmei Group added up to only five or six million, and the funds needed to build an industrial park must be in the tens of millions.

Chen Lanjun was curled up on the sofa. After hearing this, she stretched out her legs and said with a smile: "Of course I wouldn't have such an idea, sister. I'm not a fool."

"That's good." Feng Jun's face showed a look of relief, and he said, "If you want to support the construction of the industrial zone, you have to have a strong force like the Shao family. Otherwise, why don't you ask Shao Qinghe? If we can say that the Shao family supports the construction of the new industrial park, we will be doing them a favor."

Chen Lanjun just shook her head: "Not very good."

She said, "Sister, do you think I'm Daji or Baosi? Just saying it casually, he is willing to use his family fortune to play with you?"

"It's not a joke," Feng Jun also smiled, "but since you are willing to support this, it must be profitable. Since it is profitable, the old man of the Shao family may also think it through and support it?"

Moreover, if it succeeds, the old man of the Shao family will definitely see the intelligence and strength of the second sister. Although Feng Jun is still not so optimistic about her and Shao Qinghe, if the second sister really wants to be with that person for a long time, with such a thing, there may be less resistance.

Chen Lanjun glanced at Feng Jun and shook her head helplessly, knowing everything but not saying anything.

"That would require another round of people, which would be too much trouble. Besides, for the Shao family, their previous investment projects have already established a good relationship with this side. Investing in a new industrial park would not bring such a big return."

She had another hidden meaning in her mind. How could she maximize her benefits by being the middleman who introduced him? If Shao Qinghe was interested, she could certainly help him make money, but she must not lose the initiative. She didn't want her luck to become "lucky for her husband".

Chen Lanjun went to hug Fengjun's arm: "Okay, sister, don't worry, I will definitely be able to come up with a perfect plan that can help without putting our company at too much risk."

In fact, she already had an idea in her mind, but she was not so sure.

No matter what, it is important to go to the Temple of the Three Treasures first.

It happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was a good reason to visit.

At the suggestion of Chen Lanjun, this year, Xingshiji produced a mooncake with a special flavor - the salted egg yolk lava mooncake. Different from the traditional five-nut mooncake and lotus seed mooncake, this mooncake is small and exquisite, and after breaking open the crispy skin, the salted egg yolk inside can still be lava.

This is the first lava mooncake on the market! Chen Lanjun specially allocated a large amount of advertising funds to place advertisements on Hong Kong TV stations and newspapers.

As soon as it was launched, it received rave reviews from customers and quickly became the most popular mooncake for this year's Mid-Autumn Festival.

The wind from Hong Kong always blows to Pengcheng City very quickly. Everyone knows that Xing Shi Ji has launched a new lava mooncake. Many suppliers and even regular customers go directly to the factory gate of Xing Shi Ji to wait. The line is very long, but the supply is still insufficient to meet the demand. People have to sign a note.

Lao Liang's family pays attention to current affairs and loves to try new things. The children in the family, in particular, really want to taste what the lava mooncakes taste like.

After hearing the child complain twice, Lao Liang called Zhengmei Company and asked if he could still buy lava mooncakes.

That must be there!

Chen Lanjun was already preparing to visit, and now that he took the initiative to ask, he immediately picked up the prepared lava mooncake gift box and other snack gift boxes, and went to visit with Feng Jun.

Lao Liang was very familiar with Feng Jun. As soon as they met, he kept praising her for her good business.

As for Chen Lanjun, Lao Liang had a slightly shallower impression. He still remembered that she was studying at Mingde University. He asked, "Have you graduated now? Where do you work?"

"I am working at Pengda University."

When he heard that she was working in Pengcheng City, Lao Liang nodded repeatedly: "This is a good place. You will definitely be able to develop together with Pengcheng City and Pengda."

Lao Liang's wife made some tea and greeted her children with a smile: "This sister is a university teacher. You should learn more from her."

Chen Lanjun immediately offered to help the child with his lessons and take him around school.

Although the Lao Liang couple did not agree, they obviously treated her very well.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen Lanjun was not idle. She went to Lao Liang's house several times to ask for his care. She also gave Lao Liang's wife two new clothes and brought a basket of snacks for his children.

On the other hand, she often consulted professors at the School of Economics of Pengda University, which made some professors think that she wanted to switch to a graduate program in economics.

After she was confident, Chen Lanjun talked to Lao Liang about the new industrial park during his visit.

"I was studying and chatting with professors from the School of Economics these days, and we talked about building industrial parks." Chen Lanjun smiled as she held her tea. "Perhaps, as long as there are policies, industrial parks can be built even without funds."
