My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 727 Tasmania

Half an hour later, the symposium officially started. There were more than 500 people gathered at the scene, most of them were from state-owned enterprises, and the total number of private enterprises was less than [-].

Li Jianfu, Mayor of Sydney, presided over the symposium in place of Dornier Henry.

The meeting eliminated a lot of formalism, and no time wasted in the whole process.

Li Jianfu took the planning project form and discussed the specific construction plan of each project one by one. The major cities, enterprises and institutions were red-faced, and the scene became a mess.

Xu Dong chose to stay out of the matter, but he also smoked second-hand smoke for a whole morning.

During the lunch break, Li Jianfu came to the door.

"Mayor Li, please come in."

"Xu Dong, I interrupted your rest."

Li Jianfu said politely.

"Don't bother me, I just finished my meal." Xu Dongshun took out a cigarette from his pocket, "Mayor Li, would you like one?"

"No, I smoked cigarettes all morning, and my voice is almost hoarse." Li Jianfu waved his hand quickly.

Xu Dong took back the cigarette case, and then welcomed the other party to the living room to sit down.

Ma Lingling quickly brought a pot of tea.

Li Jianfu took a sip of tea, and then got straight to the point: "Xu Dong, you are a busy person, so I won't talk nonsense. I came here this time mainly for one thing, and I want to ask for your opinion."

"It's serious, you are the one who manages everything every day. Just tell me if you have something to do. I will know everything."

Xu Dong kept his posture very low.

The person in front of him was not simple at all. Before he became the mayor of Sydney, he was one of the top leaders in the country.

Although he only served as the mayor in name.

But the whole kangaroo country is under his control.

It is a veritable upgraded version of the feudal officials.

"Then I'll just say that the higher-ups plan to turn the entire Tasmania Island into a specialized animal husbandry breeding base. I don't know what Chairman Xu thinks about this plan?"

"Tasmania?"

Xu Dong had never heard of this place at all.

Or heard about it, but forgot about it.

"Mr. Xu, Tasmania is the largest island in the Kangaroo Country, and it's located in the southeast corner."

Ma Lingling introduced it again and again, took out her mobile phone and quickly searched Baidu Encyclopedia, and then handed the mobile phone to her uncle.

Xu Dong took a look and immediately reacted.

"This place doesn't look small, does it?"

Li Jianfu nodded: "Its area is almost as large as two Qiongdao, and the land is definitely enough."

"For such a big place, the amount of investment should be amazing, right?" Xu Dong asked.

"It's definitely not small, but the whole project is divided into [-] phases, and the construction period is as long as several decades, so there is no need for a one-time investment."

"At this time, building and investing in animal husbandry..."

Xu Dong hesitated to speak.

In the current general environment, filling the stomach is the key, and investing heavily in animal husbandry, no matter how you look at it, it feels a bit... out of date.

Li Jianfu sighed helplessly: "There is nothing the higher authorities can do. The shortage of milk powder in the country has been severe in the past two years. No matter how hard we are, we can't suffer for our children. The first phase of the project on the island is a dairy farm."

"So that's what happened!"

Xu Donghuan suddenly realized.

Natural disasters have indeed continued in China in the past two years, causing serious damage to industrial and agricultural production. The lack of milk powder is only one of the consequences.

"Xu Dong, that's what happened."

Li Jianfu paused, and directly explained his purpose:

"I hope your company can build another sub-base on the island. Your seaweed powder is a good feed material, which can greatly reduce the cost of breeding farms."

Xu Dong's political consciousness is very strong, Li Jianfu just said, he patted his chest and promised on the spot:
"Mayor Li, don't worry, Xinke Seaweed is a company with a high sense of social responsibility. The problem of milk powder is more important than Mount Tai. We are willing to do our best."

"Okay, I really didn't see the wrong person."

Li Jianfu was very satisfied.

Xu Dong thought for a while, the matter of milk powder was of a public welfare nature, so he simply did a good job to the end:

"Mayor Li, in addition to building a factory, I decided to supply the farms at cost price until there is no shortage of milk powder in the country."

Li Jianfu immediately raised his teacup: "Mr. Xu, on behalf of the farm and thousands of parents in China, I would like to offer you a glass of tea instead of wine."

"You're welcome, it's all I should do."

Xu Dong immediately picked up the teacup and gently touched the other party.

After drinking tea, Li Jianfu didn't want to make it too difficult for the other party, so he offered to propose:
"If your company's board of directors has different opinions, Mr. Xu, you can call me directly, and I will help you persuade them in person."

After all, Shinco Seaweed is a listed company, and it is not the chairman who has the final say.

"No, no, no, since this is my personal decision, I definitely can't let other shareholders pay for it. I plan to be a sole proprietor of this sub-base."

Xu Dong hastily refused.

It is not so easy to be the richest man. If you go too far in everything, you can just take the opportunity to gain a wave of goodwill, so it is considered "to save money and avoid disaster".

Li Jianfu instantly felt Xu Dong's sincerity:

"Do you need a loan? I heard that you are going to set up a horse gray fertilizer factory soon. The financial pressure must be not small, right?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "There must be financial pressure, but there is no solution. At worst, I will get some funds from the stock market."

"Cashing out may affect the stock price?"

Li Jianfu reminded.

"Don't be afraid, the recent stock market is not bad, and my two companies each have half, so the impact should not be that great."

Xu Dong explained casually.

Li Jianfu saw that the other party was determined, so he didn't try to persuade him any more, but he specifically asked before leaving:

"If you have any difficulties, please call me."

"I will if you don't say so."

……

As soon as Mayor Li left, Ma Lingling couldn't wait to give a thumbs up and said:
"Uncle, you are so generous!"

"Mayor Li has already spoken, is there any room for me to refuse?" Xu Dong said angrily.

"It can be pushed directly to the company. With Mayor Li's endorsement, no one on the board of directors would dare to object."

"There is indeed no objection, but this matter will hurt your uncle and my prestige, and the loss outweighs the gain. After all, the supply at cost price is what I took the initiative to add."

"It's so unfair!"

Ma Lingling felt sorry for her uncle.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "Don't talk about it, your brother-in-law is worth 300 billion, which is not bad."

Ma Lingling scratched her hair, and then asked a question she was most concerned about:
"Uncle, who do you plan to hand over to the Mastania sub-base?"

"What? Do you want to take it on one shoulder?"

Xu Dong raised his eyebrows.

"It would be a lie to say that I don't want to, but I'm completely out of skills now, even if I want to take over, I can't do it." Ma Lingling said helplessly.

"Do you have any suitable candidates in mind?"

Xu Dong asked along the way.

Ma Lingling did not refuse: "I think Professor Zhuang Mayumi can try it. She has rich management experience and her own professional ability, so she should be able to handle it."

"Zhuang Zhenyumei?" Xu Dong was a little surprised.

"Uncle, I also heard from my colleagues at the headquarters that since the publication of the paper, Professor Zhuang Zhen has been almost isolated in the laboratory, and life is very difficult."

The matter is not difficult to understand.

After all, in a sense, the more successful Professor Sho Mayumi is, the more it proves the negligence and incompetence of other researchers, which has no solution at all.

In particular, Professor Zhuang Mayumi is still a woman, which makes the exclusion even more serious.
