In the car, Chen Ze asked, "Xiyu, what are the plans for the rest of the trip?"
"Boss, we've arranged to have lunch with Secretary Ye at the Guangfu Hotel to ask him to approve a plot of land for our security company to build a training base," Chen Xiyu said.
Chen Ze raised his wrist to check the time; it was almost lunchtime and there was still half an hour left.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's prepare the menu in advance so that we can talk while we eat when the leaders arrive."
Before Chen Ze could speak.
Zhao Youde drove directly to the Guangfu Hotel.
Chen Ze looked out the window at the cityscape of Shenzhen, where skyscrapers were being built everywhere, rising one after another, year after year.
With Shenzhen's rapid development, its economy will surpass that of Guangzhou, the capital city, in the next year.
Five minutes later, the car arrived at the entrance of Guangfu Hotel. Chen Ze got out of the car, dusted himself off, and looked at his reflection in the car window to see if his hairstyle was messy. He needed to maintain a good image when meeting his superiors.
A short while later, Chen Ze arrived at the front desk.
A chubby man was holding a pretty girl at the front desk, and they were paying the bill.
Sensing someone behind him, he instinctively turned around and exclaimed, "Aze, it's been so long since I've seen you, you busy man! These days, even seeing you is a very difficult thing."
Chen Ze glanced at him, looking disgusted, and said, "Hey Fatty, can't you eat less? Look at you, you've gotten so fat, I almost didn't recognize you. By the way, what have you been busy with lately? You haven't been busy dating, have you?"
The fat man rolled his eyes at him. "What nonsense are you talking about! I just came back from my home in Guangcheng. My dad asked me for 30 million yuan to buy land in Dachong Village in our hometown and build ten rental buildings. He said he was afraid that I would fail in my business and that building some rental buildings would leave me a way out."
Hearing the fat man's story, one can't help but admire his father's foresight and his deep love for his son.
The key point is that Fatty's father only has an elementary school education, yet he was able to come up with such a comprehensive plan.
Chen Ze asked the fat man, "Want to have a drink together?"
The fat man quickly shook his head and refused, "Why would I drink in broad daylight? I have to go back to the company. That bastard Chen Hao took his wife on a trip abroad and left the company to me alone. I'll get together with you when I have time."
Chen Ze nodded immediately, and the two chatted for a few more minutes before parting ways.
At this moment, the secretary, Shen Xiyu, came over and said, "Boss, the menu has been ordered according to your wishes. The private room is 201, Chen Hao's private room."
"good,"
Not long after Chen Ze arrived at the private room, Ye Guoqiang walked in with his secretary.
Upon seeing the high-ranking leader enter, he quickly stood up, greeted him with a smile, and shook hands with the secretary as usual, exchanging pleasantries.
Then he called out to the waiter outside the door, "Waiter, you can serve the food now."
Soon, one steaming hot dish after another was served by the waiter.
As Chen Ze ate and chatted with the leader, he asked, "Secretary, would you like some drinks?"
Ye Guoqiang waved his hand in refusal, saying, "I'm too busy during the day to drink."
He paused for a moment, glanced at Chen Ze, and asked, "I heard you invested in Guangcheng recently, and also brought other companies with you?"
"Yes, as a native of Guangcheng, it is only natural and my duty to invest in my hometown."
Ye Guoqiang nodded slightly. "Is there something important you want to discuss with me at dinner today?"
"Yes, I plan to start a security company to provide protection for my domestic and foreign businesses. I'd like to ask you, Uncle, to approve a piece of land for me to build a training base."
Hearing Chen Ze use different titles, Ye Guoqiang rolled his eyes at him. Before asking for help, he called him "Secretary," but after asking for help, he called him "Uncle."
He turned to his secretary and instructed, "Wu Tao, bring out the map of Shenzhen."
Wu Tao quickly took out a brand-new map of Shenzhen from his briefcase and handed it to his boss.
Ye Guoqiang unfolded the map and carefully looked at the open space in Nanshan District. After a while, he took a pen and drew a circle in an open space in Shekou.
Then, he said casually, "This piece of wasteland is about 5,000 square meters wide, which is enough for you to use. The price will be based on the market price."
"No problem." Chen Ze was so poor that all he had left was money, so he readily agreed.
"Chen Ze, when do you plan to open a Panda mobile phone branch factory in Shenzhen to create more jobs for Shenzhen?"
The top official of Shenzhen always talks about employment and the economy. Having such a leader is definitely the greatest hope for the future of Shenzhen.
If most officials in a city are like Wan Guangliang, then it will be extremely difficult for that city to develop.
Chen Ze smiled slightly, "Uncle, didn't I mention this issue to you last time? There isn't enough large enough land available in Shenzhen right now."
Ye Guoqiang said irritably, "I didn't ask you to move the main factory here. Can't you build a branch factory that can accommodate five thousand people?"
A factory for 5,000 people?
Well, after thinking for a while, Chen Ze agreed to his uncle's question.
Then Ye Guoqiang continued, "You can also help me get those entrepreneurs from your Chen Clan Chamber of Commerce to invest in Shenzhen. I can give them preferential policies because of you."
"Give me face?" Chen Ze was speechless at his uncle's words. Sure enough, leaders are so flexible in their way of speaking. What was originally a request for help was turned into giving the other person face.
He thought for a moment and then replied, “Uncle, I have no problem inviting them over, but you will have to arrange a place for them yourself.”
Upon hearing that Chen Ze was willing to help him secure investment, his previously serious face instantly broke into a faint smile.
“You’ve finally figured it out, kid. You don’t need to worry about this problem at all. Although we don’t have any particularly large plots of land in Shenzhen, there are still plenty of places for medium-sized enterprises to set up shop. For example, there are two medium-sized industrial parks in Shekou Industrial Zone that are about to be completed and will be ready for use soon.”
Chen Ze nodded. "Okay, I'll call them tonight and see what they think."
"Do we still need to see what they think?" Upon hearing this, Ye Guoqiang said loudly, "Don't give me that. Don't think I don't know you're the vice president of the Chen Clan Chamber of Commerce. If you don't bring them over to invest, you'll lose that piece of land that your security company owns."
"No, Uncle, what if they don't come? I can't exactly tie them up with chains and bring them here, can I?" Chen Ze said, feeling frustrated.
Ye Guoqiang said domineeringly, "That's your business. You decide how to get them here. I only care about the results."
Having been stuck with a shameless uncle, Chen Ze had no choice but to agree.
