Fangjie was puzzled, feeling that this Minister Xu knew her.
She looked around and saw that people were checking every area, but she wasn't flustered at all.
Just then, customers began to enter the store.
The customers who came to buy appliances were somewhat surprised to see so many people in uniform.
"Xiao Chen, have you offended someone higher up?" one of the customers asked the sales clerk.
"Auntie, no, it's just a routine check," the saleswoman said with a frank smile.
The other customers glanced at him, then continued looking at the appliances.
After reviewing the order, Xu Zheng discovered that many of the unit prices on the retail orders were duplicates, and some even listed the same model number.
He was fairly certain that the so-called arbitrary price gouging was completely unfounded.
Hairun's publicly advertised nationwide unified retail price is unlikely to damage its own reputation.
"Manager Mu, the price tags here are up to standard, but we haven't had time to replace them with new ones."
"I won't make things difficult for you. We've brought the new labels; you can change them yourselves in a bit." Minister Xu's expression was indifferent; after reading them, he remained calm, his eyes still devoid of any emotion.
He was quite surprised, not expecting Mu Fang to implement the labeling standards so thoroughly.
Even now, in Fukushima's department stores, many items don't have labels.
Xu Zheng checked several times, and the problems kept recurring: the labels were unclear, and the prices fluctuated.
Mu Fang: "Okay, we will definitely implement the new labeling standards today."
She exchanged a few polite words with Minister Xu, and then the group left in a grand procession.
Yihe Electronics in the city was not so lucky.
When the regulatory officials arrived at the store, several people were arguing over the price of the appliances.
These people are customers who returned the goods from Hairun Appliances and bought Yihe Appliances instead.
Following a whistleblower report, surprise inspections of various electronics stores and retailers were launched throughout the city.
Yihe Electrical Appliances, having only recently opened, was among the first to be raided.
As it turned out, they ran into someone who came to question the price.
After understanding the cause and effect, the regulatory staff also found that the prices of many electrical appliances at Yihe were inconsistent with those on the promotional leaflets, which was suspected of deceiving consumers. As a result, Yihe was ordered to suspend business for rectification.
Upon receiving the news, Chen Yi had just finished having dinner with people from the Fuzhou municipal government. When he arrived, the doors of the electronics store had already been forcibly closed.
He could only slink back to the hotel and wait for news.
…
Lin Ziyan was unaware of what had happened in Fushi, but even if she had known, it would have been within her expectations.
There are no winners in a price war.
Hairun mainly relies on wholesale customers, so it won't be greatly affected.
However, if Yihe Appliances wants to sell high-quality appliances in the future, it will be difficult to raise prices, since it has lowered its own positioning.
Lin Ziyan is currently accompanying Jason on an inspection of the newly built port.
Lin Jun, representing Rongkai Group, accompanied the inspection.
"Lin, am I dreaming?" Jason arrived at the completed docking area, his eyes welling up with tears of excitement.
His design drawings have perfectly presented the most important parts.
And it only took less than six months.
Lin Ziyan raised an eyebrow slightly. "Of course not."
"That's incredible!" Jason exclaimed repeatedly.
He had his assistant deliver the design drafts for the later issues, and each time the assistant returned to Germany, he would simply reply that everything went smoothly.
Before the project was completed, he couldn't resist booking a flight to come here.
Lin Jun consulted the professional inspector next to him and confirmed that the site would be completed a month ahead of schedule.
The first phase of the project was completed, and the new port was officially put into use.
The second and third phases were originally planned to be built later, but since the docking port had been reserved in advance, it did not affect the construction.
The board of directors of Rongkai Group approved the plan to fully invest in the port.
Therefore, there was no shortage of funds for the second and third phases of the project.
“Jason, we expect the last two phases of the project to be completed in a year and a half, at which time we will hold a formal completion ceremony.”
"We've already reported to the international port authorities, and this place can be officially put into use in three months," Lu Qiuying explained from the side, handing him some application reports.
Jason nodded, looked at the sea, and a smile curved his lips.
The shimmering sea surface, with its scattered light, seemed to weave a glowing veil, dazzling yet radiant.
The distant, rolling mountains are bathed in sunlight, lush and green.
"Lin, I can't even remember the first time I came here to take measurements. The changes here are too great."
In my country, it can take 5 to 10 years to build a bridge.
“But when I came from the airport today, I found that Fukushima had built several bridges,” Jason remarked.
"Minister Lu, your efficiency is truly terrifying..." he said, then fell into deep thought.
Following T Group's decision to choose China as its first step into the Asian market, other groups have successively sent their marketing teams to China for inspections.
"Mr. Jason, you flatter me," Lu Qiuying said modestly, a glint of light in her eyes.
Once the new port is officially put into use, there will be more and more cargo ships and containers here.
The economy of Fukushi City has been revitalized.
Now, major international car manufacturers, electronics companies, daily necessities companies, and so on have submitted investment plans to the Ministry of Foreign Trade.
Lin Jun's visit this time is not only to check on the completion status of the port, but also to finalize the school construction project.
…
At this moment,
Haibi Village is home to the village secretaries of several nearby villages.
Even the retired village party secretary was invited to a meeting at the Haibi Village Committee.
Old Party Secretary Lin sat comfortably in his rattan chair, holding a thermos, sipping his tea without participating in the discussion.
"I've chosen the site for the school, everyone take a look." Secretary Qin of Haibi Village took out a piece of paper.
He hadn't intended to invite them this time, because there wasn't much to discuss.
It's a done deal that the school will be built in Haibi Village.
"Old Tan, it's up to you to decide. As long as the children from each village can come and study here, that's fine," the village secretary of Haitang Village said with a faint smile, puffing on his pipe.
Building a school is a good thing. It doesn't require the village to contribute land or money, and the village children can attend school nearby. He has no reason to object.
However, his lack of objection does not mean that others do not object.
After all, they didn't know the truth and assumed it was funded by the government.
"Secretary Qin, why isn't it built in our village? There's no official document from above. This decision seems a bit inappropriate." The secretary of Luojiao Village was clearly unhappy.
Old Party Secretary Lin glanced at him. The Party Secretary of Luojiao Village was a young high school graduate who wore glasses, making it impossible to see the emotions in his eyes.
Secretary Qin slightly raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and then slowly said, "How do you know the document hasn't been issued?"
"I'm here today not to discuss anything with you, but to inform you that we need people to build the school, and we're recruiting from various villages."
The village secretary of Luojiao Village paused for a few seconds, pursed his thin lips, and remained silent.
"Go back and mobilize the young men, every single one of them, to come and build the school. We'll pay them and provide them with a meal."
"We won't let everyone work for nothing," Secretary Qin continued.
He had barely finished speaking when the phone on the table rang.
