Li Cheng had proposed the establishment of an Entrepreneurs Association, which was supported by the deputy mayor. Not long after, with the deputy mayor's help, the Entrepreneurs Association was finally approved.

Li Cheng was a little confused when he saw that his name was written as the person in charge on the registration certificate of the Entrepreneurs Association.

Originally, he wanted to call a meeting of those who were willing to join and then elect a person in charge.

But the person who issued the certificate told him that he could not register without a responsible person. Failure to register meant that the Entrepreneurs Association was not a legal organization.

Li Cheng instantly felt that this matter was caught in a cycle of which came first, the chicken or the egg.

Forget it, don’t worry about it, you can choose again later.

Before the New Year, Li Chengguang sent out a call for heroes, inviting those who wanted to join the association to join, and then took advantage of the approaching Spring Festival to organize a social gathering to enhance the friendship.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the social gathering was held as scheduled in the conference room of Pengfei Hotel.

Those attending the meeting included the deputy mayor and leaders from various industries.

This time, Li Cheng sat on the podium as the deputy secretary-general of the Entrepreneurs Association.

Why is it deputy? Sorry, the position of secretary general is held concurrently by a senior official from the industrial and commercial administration department, which is responsible for supervision, guidance and management.

Li Cheng didn't care whether he was a deputy or not. What he cared about was that the city's entrepreneurs could form a synergy. Only in this way could those companies on the verge of bankruptcy be saved.

The relevant municipal departments had already issued notices and mobilized people, so the leaders of state-owned enterprises were the first to join the association.

Others are people from various joint-stock companies and some shell companies.

People in joint-stock companies think that joining an association will increase their network, while shell companies think that by joining an association, they will become serious entrepreneurs.

Li Cheng accepted everyone who came. As long as the unit was registered as a business, he basically agreed to let them join the association.

For this, Weng Xiaozhu once ridiculed him, "You want both chocolate beans and sheep dung eggs."

Li Cheng smiled at this and thought to himself, you don’t know, sheep dung also has its uses.

Now, all these chocolate beans and sheep dung eggs have gathered together and are listening attentively to Li Cheng's speech.

Perhaps it is because Li Cheng has too many halos, so in the eyes of these people, Li Cheng is a mystery.

These people had already found out that Li Cheng was very amazing. Not only was he a shareholder of many companies, but he was also the chairman of the newly opened supermarket in the city.

When it comes to this supermarket, these entrepreneurs hate it to the core.

I am so envious and jealous!

Shopping at Lejia Supermarket has become fashionable. Older people, of course, go there almost every day. Even young people choose Lejia Supermarket for dinner and dates.

The huge flow of customers every day and the goods worth tens of millions of yuan entering and leaving the market every day make these people understand that the supermarket is a treasure trove and a place that makes money.

Some people even say that all the money in this city will go through Lejia Supermarket before going anywhere else.

That's a bit of an exaggeration. But the supermarket's daily cash flow is still enormous. The evidence is that Meng Jianghong and her colleagues no longer have to go out specifically to raise deposits. Instead, they work exclusively with the supermarket, depositing large amounts of cash into Li Cheng's branch every day.

"Win-win." This is what President Hou said after learning that there was a stable and reliable source of deposits.

Is it just a win-win situation? Li Cheng just smiled slightly.

These people are basically convinced that Li Cheng will be appointed as the deputy secretary-general of the Entrepreneurs Association.

"What's wrong with Li Cheng being young? Do you have what it takes to contribute a significant amount of tax revenue to this city? The businesses Li Cheng took over are now profitable and already paying taxes to the city. How many of you can do that? You're lucky you don't ask the city for money."

Several factory managers who considered themselves senior executives at the time were dissatisfied when they learned that Li Cheng was the deputy secretary-general of the association, so they went to the deputy mayor. As a result, they were scolded by the deputy mayor.

He is just looking for trouble. Does he think that the Entrepreneurs Association set up by Li Cheng is still something that is in name only but has benefits?

Just being listed as a name is a benefit. They are used to eating and think they can eat anything. Why should they eat first? That doesn't make sense.

After Li Cheng learned that someone had approached the deputy mayor and wanted to be the deputy secretary-general of the association, he decided to go all out and directly wrote a list of directors for the association and announced it at this meeting.

Weng Xiaozhu, Mr. Liu from the supermarket, Du Dapeng from the computer company and others are among them.

Any comments? If so, take a look at the tax situation. The tax department is here too.

No objection, if you have no objection, that means you agree.

In this way, the Entrepreneurs Association seemed to have become another holding company of Li Cheng.

There's nothing we can do. Li Cheng doesn't want this to happen, but some people just don't understand the situation and insist on interfering.

However, Li Cheng was still quite kind and included two factory directors of state-owned enterprises in the list of directors.

One of them was the director of the heavy machinery factory. Li Cheng always had other ideas about the heavy machinery factory.

The social gathering was a great success. Li Cheng also prepared a gift for each entrepreneur who came to the meeting, a water cup engraved with the establishment of the Entrepreneurs Association.

These people like this souvenir very much, especially the bosses of shell companies. It seems that the next time they go to discuss business, holding such a water cup means that they are entrepreneurs.

The meeting set the association's purpose, "to work together in unity, seek common development, and build all enterprises in the city into excellent enterprises."

Finally, the deputy mayor added, "Now that all enterprises in this city are in a period of transformation, entrepreneurs have great potential. I hope that everyone will work hard under the leadership of the association and strive to be the best..."

Well, strive for the best.

Li Cheng decided to auction the battery factory after the Spring Festival.

The battery factory can only revive itself by going through auction.

Li Cheng knew that a large number of cars would enter households in the future, and there was one thing that must be in a car, and that was the battery.

This battery factory has a long history, originally producing batteries for ships. However, due to its historical baggage and poor management, it fell into trouble.

But the technology and craftsmanship of this factory are very good. As long as we persevere a little longer, we can wait until spring comes.

Li Cheng decided to help it hold on and bring it back to life.

Before this, Li Cheng only had his eyes on the land with a good location.

Later, Li Cheng felt that it would be better to develop the city through industry, so he changed his mind and decided to revive the battery factory.

But this is a highly polluting enterprise!

Therefore, Li Cheng still has to find a way to solve its pollution problem.

To this end, Li Cheng specifically asked someone to find a professor at the university, and then signed a contract with the professor to solve the pollution problem.

When the professor learned that Li Cheng attached so much importance to environmental issues, he came specifically for him.

As a result, Li Cheng only needed one sentence to make the professor willingly develop a solution for him to solve the pollution problem.

Li Cheng put it this way, "We can't destroy the green mountains and clear waters of future generations just for today's jobs."
