Chapter 189 Investment (3)
The restaurant we chose was the Shannan No. 1 Hotel, also owned by Jiantou. The food was prepared by a professional chef. Concerned that Nina and Irene, the foreigners, might not be used to using chopsticks, they were attentive enough to provide knives and forks, and to divide the food among themselves.
In order to avoid indecent actions such as spitting out fish bones, the chef carefully removed all the fish bones and placed the fish meat in a small bowl.
Of course, there is also a whole fish on the table, which is exclusive to Chinese cuisine.
Several people sat at the main table, toasting each other and laughing. Although Nina and Irene didn't understand Chinese, they enjoyed the meal with Jiang Ningyue and Lin Chenxi translating.
Before leaving, Secretary Zhang Yan called Jiang Ningyue over and told her, "Xiaoyue, don't go to work for the next period of time. Stay with your friends; that's the most important thing. Don't worry about the TV station or the cultural tourism business for now."
"Okay, Secretary." Jiang Ningyue nodded and had no objection.
Zhang Yan thought for a moment, "One more thing. If the three of them encounter any dissatisfaction during their subsequent research, you need to help them. You've also been to Haizhou Province before, and the conditions in Shannan Province are indeed worse than those in coastal cities."
"I understand." Jiang Ningyue nodded.
"If there are any problems, please communicate promptly."
Secretary Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I will give you a credit for bringing these three directors from Fortune 500 companies to Shannan Province."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said a few humble words.
After the banquet, Lin Chenxi and the other two and Jiang Ningyue continued their second session in the suite. The four of them drank and chatted.
Irene was a typical "foreigner." Blonde, blue eyes, a high nose bridge, and big, thick lips. Nina, on the other hand, had flaxen hair and slightly more delicate features.
Jiang Ningyue asked curiously, "I thought it was just you two, why is Irene here too?"
Nina introduced, "Eileen is my best friend. When she heard I was going to invest in China, she followed me. Their company was originally planning to build a factory, and they had their sights set on Southeast Asia. However, I said the workers in Southeast Asia had a low level of education."
"Indeed." Jiang Ningyue naturally had to speak well of her country. "After those large factories went to Southeast Asia, many materials still had to be imported from foreign countries. The most important thing is that the quality of many products did not meet the standards."
Irene smiled and said, "That's why I'm here."
Everyone chatted for a while and then started talking about Jiang Ningyue's script.
Lin Chenxi said: "The show 'The Beginning' has been scheduled to be broadcast in January next year."
"Oh." Jiang Ningyue was actually quite excited. After all, she had a cameo role. "Remember to call me when it airs."
"OK." Lin Chenxi nodded with a smile. "How are you doing in Shannan Province? Do you have any requests? We will help you raise them when the time comes."
"Forget it, I don't have any requests."

The next morning, after breakfast, the relevant person in charge of the Department of Commerce was waiting at the hotel. At the same time, Fengge, the deputy mayor of Chuanquan City, and the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau also came to the hotel in person to greet them.
After all, people have already arrived in Chuanquan, so how could the Chuanquan City Investment Promotion Bureau let them go?
The place we are going to today is the industrial park in Chuanquan City.
There are two large industrial parks in Chuanquan City. The first one is the old industrial area of Chuanquan City. Located on the east side of Chuanquan City, it is close to the highway and railway, and transportation is relatively convenient.
The second industrial park is the Chuanquan New District, located near the airport. It has not only an airport but also highways and railways, making transportation more convenient.
We went to the old industrial park in the morning and the new industrial park in the afternoon.
Compared with the old industrial park, the new one is more vibrant. The old industrial park is in a dilapidated state, with dilapidated roads.
However, the GDP of Chuanquan City accounts for 33.39% of the province's GDP, making it the only prefecture-level city in the province with a GDP of over 100 billion yuan.
Therefore, both the environment and supporting facilities are the best in Shannan Province.
In the evening, Wang Zhendong, Secretary of the Chuanquan Municipal Party Committee, personally hosted a banquet for several people.
After finishing the meal, Jiang Ningyue asked curiously, "What do you think?"
Lin Chenxi curled her lips, "Not very good."
"Huh? Why?" Jiang Ningyue was curious.
"When building a factory in Shannan Province, it doesn't matter whether the supporting facilities are good or not. They're not very good. However, Secretary Wang doesn't respect you very much."
"He wasn't very respectful to me?" Jiang Ningyue thought carefully and shook her head. "No, he was quite polite to me. He even thanked me for my contribution to the cultural tourism of Chuanquan City."
"What's the point of just thanking me?" Lin Chenxi said helplessly, "You need to come up with something tangible."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "I'm fine with anything."
"How can that be? I came here for you."
——
The next day, the Minzhou City Investment Promotion Bureau personally welcomed several people and brought them to the Minzhou City Economic and Technological Development Zone. The director of the Economic and Technological Development Zone Management Committee personally led everyone to the industrial zone of the Economic and Technological Development Zone.
This place is not big, so we finished the tour in the morning. In the afternoon, the deputy mayor and the leaders of the Investment Promotion Bureau explained Minzhou's investment promotion policies to everyone at the municipal government.
Compared with Chuanquan City, the government of Minzhou has a more humble attitude, and it seems that they can write the words "freedom is everything unless prohibited by law" on their face.
This law refers to the Criminal Law. Simply put, as long as you invest with us and it doesn't violate the Criminal Law, we can pretend nothing has happened.
During the discussion, the municipal party secretary Jin Kai was also present.
After arriving at the scene, Jin Kai smiled and said to Jiang Ningyue, "Director Jiang, I was just talking to you on the phone. I didn't expect to meet you so soon."
"Secretary Jin, you're too polite." Jiang Ningyue said a few polite words with a smile.
Jin Kai learned that Jiang Ningyue had a good relationship with these people, so he thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Director Jiang, are you interested in joining our Minzhou Economic Development Zone Management Committee as a deputy director? The salary of a deputy director is in line with your current position."
Jiang Ningyue was obviously caught off guard. After a few seconds of hesitation, she smiled and refused, "Secretary Jin, I have never done work in this field."
“You should try it if you haven’t done it before.”
Jin Kai smiled and persuaded, "Besides, it's just a temporary position. It's just to add more experience to your resume."
Lin Chenxi smiled and said, "Secretary Jin is right. Nowadays, when appointing cadres, we pay special attention to those with rich experience. You should also try more different positions and not always stay in the comfort zone of the TV station."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and actually had no interest in going to Minzhou City to take up a temporary position.
The Minzhou Economic Development Zone doesn't have many residents; it's filled with factories. Being a deputy director here is essentially a sinecure.
