Chapter 14 World One [14]
After the internal meeting was passed, Shang Siyu began to contact the relevant departments and submitted all the information prepared in advance.
The approval process for industrial enterprises went smoothly in this regard, with approval completed within seven working days, allowing new technologies to benefit from government subsidy policies.
But when purchasing the land use rights, Shang Siyu encountered a little trouble. She was suddenly informed by phone that the land, which she could have purchased directly, had become a bidding auction.
"If only one company had purchased land use rights from the government, a three-day public announcement would have been sufficient. However, two companies suddenly expressed interest in purchasing the rights before the announcement. After much discussion, we finally decided to use a fair and open bidding model."
The staff member in charge gave a seemingly reasonable explanation over the phone: "Price only accounts for 40% of the total score and is not the only determining factor. It depends more on the subsequent development and use of the land. New technologies still have a relatively good advantage."
"Okay, is there any relevant announcement?" Although Shang Siyu felt a little disappointed that he couldn't win the bid smoothly, he was not against the bidding method.
After about five seconds of silence, the staff gave a response.
"We will publish a notice on the government website in three days. You can send us your bids within seven days of the notice. The bid opening date will be on the third day after the deadline, and the results will be announced in front of all bidders."
After getting the information he needed, Shang Siyu politely hung up the phone and sighed softly.
"Do we need to bid to get that piece of land?" Jing Ke, who had been listening to Shang Siyu's speech, asked with his head tilted slightly.
Shang Siyu hummed and put his phone on the table. "Two industrial companies are also interested in that piece of land. Maybe Kang Xin heard about it."
"But Kangxin Group is not a local enterprise. Strictly speaking, it can only be considered a local enterprise. The municipal government should not specifically tell them the news." Jing Ke touched his chin.
"The person who has closer ties with the local government is Xue Fan. He has connections in this area. It's possible that he took action. That piece of land also has development value for Xue Fan."
Jing Ke analyzed carefully, "If the land is turned into commercial office buildings, it can also generate revenue for the local government and increase the number of small and medium-sized enterprises entering the high-tech park."
"Comparing them, it's more likely that Xue Fan will take action. But if both companies want to get involved, there's also the possibility that they will intervene together."
Shang Siyu looked thoughtful. "In that case, do we have to engage in a price war? If we pay a high price, the cost will be much higher."
After a brief thought, Jing Ke came up with a plan. "The base price of land in Jiang City is around 3,000. When making the bid, let's set the price at 8,000 per square meter."
"Eight thousand?" Shang Siyu's eyes flashed with surprise. "In that case, the land purchase cost will be almost two hundred million, and the bidding process doesn't qualify for government subsidies."
Jing Ke raised an eyebrow and smiled confidently at Shang Siyu, "It's eight thousand. Let the bidding documents be handled by professionals. During the period between bidding and bid opening, we can directly acquire a factory and then renovate it."
Shang Siyu's eyes lit up. "In that case, can we also disclose the news that we've secured a large investment?"
"Yes, we can tell some of the employees and ask them to keep it confidential." Jing Ke winked at Shang Siyu, as if to say, "You understand what I mean." "The harder the news is to obtain, the more credible it will be to them."
Shang Siyu's eyebrows curved, and a smile blossomed on his face. "Okay, I'll discuss it with Sister Cui and release the news before the bid opens. By the way, we can also see if the new employee is reliable."
-
Jing Ke and Shang Siyu hit it off and decided to set a big trap for Xue Fan, who liked to play tricks behind the scenes.
In order to release enough information to confuse Xue Fan, Jing Ke began to frequently visit Xinsheng Technology as an investor and major shareholder.
After quickly passing the first subject test and obtaining a domestic driver's license, Jing Ke also specially selected a sports car with a price close to eight figures, and picked up Shang Siyu to and from get off work every day, behaving extremely ostentatiously.
Seeing this, the people Xue Fan sent to follow him immediately took photos crazily. They followed him for a whole week and sent dozens of gigabytes of videos and photos to Xue Fan.
When Xue Fan just received the information, his face was full of pride.
You can get so much information in exchange for only 30,000 yuan. This deal is really a good deal.
But after opening the information and reading it for an hour, Xue Fan's face turned visibly darker.
What the hell is this? How come dozens of gigabytes of data are just pictures and videos of two people going to and from get off work together?
What else can we do? We can drive a sports car to the mall, drive a sports car to a hot pot restaurant, drive a sports car to the supermarket to buy groceries, drive a sports car to a beauty salon?
Did I spend my own money just to see Jing Ke and Shang Siyu shopping together? Why is there nothing useful in there?
"Mr. Xue, we have already found some information about Jing Ke." The chief assistant spoke before Xue Fan got angry.
"What news?" Xue Fan asked with a bad look on his face, and immediately deleted the pile of files that were of no use to him.
The chief assistant glanced at Xue Fan's computer screen. "Jing Ke grew up abroad and is currently a shareholder of a company with nine-digit annual profits. According to the company's annual report and Jing Ke's shareholding ratio, her annual dividends are close to nine figures."
"Close to nine figures? That means she can make almost 100 million a year?" Xue Fan frowned, his tone tinged with suspicion and a jealousy he himself didn't even notice. "How can a woman like her, who has no one to rely on abroad, make so much money?"
"Mr. Xue, the nine-digit figure you just mentioned refers to the local currency of the company's location. If converted into RMB, the dividends alone would be almost 600 million a year."
The general assistant lowered his head slightly and said, "Although Xinsheng Technology has been blocking internal information, from the information we have received so far, Jing Ke should have invested a lot of money in Xinsheng Technology, allowing them to directly ignore the suppression of Kangxin Group and build their own production line."
After hearing that the dividends alone amounted to 600 million per year, Xue Fan's head couldn't help but buzz, and he didn't even hear what Assistant Tai Qing said next.
"Production line? So Shang Siyu is planning to take over that abandoned processing plant and transform it into its own production line?" Xue Fan only caught the last few words.
"It's very likely, and Xinsheng Technology's offer will likely be very high," the general assistant warned. "If we want to seize that piece of land, we'll likely have to put up 300 million yuan."
Xue Fan frowned and interrupted the general assistant, "No, we absolutely cannot let her get a suitable factory. Three hundred million is three hundred million. When the time comes, we can start selling the property in advance and temporarily slow down other spending within the company."
The general assistant disagreed with the idea of bidding high to compete with Xinsheng Technology, and said tactfully, "Boss Xue, if we do that, our capital chain will be very tight."
"Don't worry, it's easy to sell the house. The money will come back once it's sold." Xue Fan certainly wouldn't listen to the chief assistant and gave orders on his own.
"Just do as I say, start selling the property in advance, and then send someone to find out the price agreed upon by Shang Siyu. We'll add ten yuan per square meter to their price."
Xue Fan spoke very confidently. When he thought that he could use a very small advantage to obtain the land use rights of the high-tech park, the gloom on his face disappeared.
When the bids are opened, Shang Siyu's face will definitely look very interesting, and I must appreciate it carefully!
