Upon hearing this, everyone nodded unconsciously.
He Jinpeng thought for a moment and said to Li Jiacheng, "Mr. Li, your offer is too low. We can't make a decision on this. The municipal government must hold a meeting to discuss it before we can come up with a result."
“Okay, no problem. I’ll wait for your meeting to discuss this. See you next time. I have to go to other cities to investigate investment opportunities later.” Li Jiacheng stood up to say goodbye, and deliberately said the last sentence to put pressure on the Shenzhen government.
The underlying message is, if you don't sell me the land cheaply, I'll invest in other cities.
“Mr. Li, don’t rush to leave Shenzhen. You can walk around and investigate the market investment environment in Shenzhen. Besides, our municipal government meetings are very quick,” He Jinpeng said hurriedly.
Li Jiacheng replied with a smile, "Okay, then I'll stay in Shenzhen for a while longer."
...
"Boss, are you so sure the Shenzhen government is willing to sell the land to us at that price? 200 million RMB for 3 million square meters of land. If this happened in Hong Kong, it would be unimaginable!" Li Ka-shing's secretary asked doubtfully.
Li Ka-shing glanced at the inexpensive quartz watch on his wrist before answering his secretary's question.
"Although I am not the richest man in Hong Kong, I am a very famous entrepreneur in Hong Kong. The acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa made me famous. Shenzhen wants to attract Hong Kong investment, so I catered to their preferences. Therefore, they are definitely willing to sell land to us cheaply!"
Full of confidence, Li Jiacheng said to his secretary, "Let's go back and wait for good news!"
"Okay, boss!"
...
Shanghai.
"Boss, it's time to set up the microcomputer manufacturing plant. Which city do you think we should build it in?" Qiu Bojun asked.
"Shenzhen, I guess," Zhao Ye replied without hesitation.
"Okay, boss, I'll have someone inquire right now to see if there's a suitable place in Shenzhen for us to build a microcomputer manufacturing plant."
"Um."
Around 4 p.m., Qiu Bojun came to Zhao Ye's office again.
"Boss, I had someone investigate, and it turns out that someone in Shenzhen is interested in selling a plot of land with an area of about three million square meters, located in Longhua District. According to our staff in Shenzhen, this land is perfect for us to build a factory."
"Well, since it's a good fit, you should go to Shenzhen tomorrow and talk to the local government officials about buying land to build a factory."
"OK."
At this moment, Li Jiacheng probably never expected that Wujiang Group would suddenly intervene halfway, causing a turmoil in his land purchase.
The following morning around 9 a.m., Qiu Bojun, accompanied by several assistants, boarded a plane and headed to Shenzhen.
In Shenzhen, the municipal government is currently discussing whether to sell the Longhua plot of land to Li Ka-shing for a low price of 200 million RMB.
"Everyone, please have a good discussion and speak up!" said Gan Xiangming, a senior city official.
One person immediately said, "I think that as long as this land is developed, even if it is sold to Li Ka-shing for 200 million, it is acceptable... We can make it back through taxes and surrounding land."
"That makes sense. Once this land is developed, the price of surrounding land will definitely rise, and we might even make more money!"
"I second that proposal. This move will attract even more Hong Kong businesses to invest in Shenzhen!"
"Major infrastructure projects will drive Shenzhen's economic development and create numerous jobs. I second that!"
"..."
Most people seconded the agreement.
When the city official, Gan Xiangming, saw this, he was just about to say that he wanted to sell the land in Longhua to Li Ka-shing when his secretary suddenly rushed over.
"Xiao Zhou, what happened?" City official Gan Xiangming asked in a deep voice, his face slightly displeased. "We're in a meeting, and you just barged in like that. What kind of behavior is this?"
The secretary, Xiao Zhou, was also anxious. He had just received a call that Wujiang Group wanted to buy the land in Longhua and then invest in building a microcomputer manufacturing plant.
Seeing that the Party Secretary was about to announce the sale of the land to Li Ka-shing, he immediately disregarded everything else and rushed over to report the situation to his superiors.
"Boss, I just received a call from Wujiang Group. They've also set their sights on this land in Longhua and plan to build a microcomputer manufacturing plant there!"
After thinking for a moment, Secretary Zhou added, "Boss, this means that Wujiang Group is about to launch a new product, and this time it should be a microcomputer!!!"
When the city official, Xiang Ming, heard this, he was immediately shocked.
Which new product launch by Wujiang Group has not caused a worldwide sensation?
The city's high-ranking official, Gan Xiangming, was extremely envious of Beijing, Shanghai, and Chongqing.
Beiping had pagers, PHS phones, typewriters, programmable machines, LCD screens...
Shanghai boasts a complete chip industry chain, precision manufacturing, Tomahawk game consoles, Game Boy, arcade games, pet machines, toys...
Chongqing has a VCD industry.
Guangzhou has a battery industry.
In Shenzhen, Wujiang Group has not yet invested in a decent industry.
However, things are looking up now. Wujiang Group is finally going to invest in building a factory in Shenzhen, and it will be a high-tech microcomputer manufacturing plant.
At this moment, a high-ranking city official, Gan Xiangming, announced excitedly to the crowd, "Attention everyone, I've just received news. Wujiang Group has also set its sights on this land in Longhua, and they plan to invest in building a microcomputer manufacturing plant here!!!"
These words immediately shocked everyone present.
"A microcomputer manufacturing plant? Has Wujiang Group developed its own brand of microcomputers? This is truly big news! If word gets out, it will definitely cause a huge sensation!!!"
"Yes, I just don't know how the microcomputers developed by Wujiang Group differ from those of other domestic brands. I hope it's not an x86 assembled machine..."
"It shouldn't be an x86 assembled machine. Wujiang Group can produce its own 32-bit Kirin 3 microprocessor. I guess Wujiang's microcomputers must be different from x86!"
The audience immediately erupted in uproar.
City official Gan Xiangming gestured for everyone to be quiet, then said loudly, "Everyone, the situation has changed. Let's discuss whether to sell the Longhua land to Li Ka-shing or to Wujiang Group. Please feel free to speak up!"
