After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 243 Haima Automobile, Encounter

The next day, everyone went to the offshore islands and reefs for snorkeling and sea fishing, and Lu Liang was invited to the municipal building.

The island is very large, only 0.06 square kilometers smaller than Treasure Island, and has an 18-kilometer strait with the mainland.

A strait separates the two places, and also gives the island more management autonomy than other mainland provinces.

Promoting the new energy industry is an important national policy. Due to the geographical location, transportation costs, relatively high oil prices, and relatively developed industries such as wind and solar energy, islands are naturally suitable for the development of new energy.

There is also a local car company on the island, namely Haima Automobile, but Haima is having a hard time. The last new car released was the M13 in 8, and there has been no innovation for three whole years. In the past three years, the sales of M8 have only been around units.

If it weren't for the continuous support from the provincial government, Haima would have died long ago. Although we can help, we can't help forever.

It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Until the end of last year, Ideal cooperated with Lifan and NIO cooperated with JAC.

The provincial government is very concerned about this unique local product and has been in contact with Xiaopeng, hoping to promote cooperation between the two parties.

I happened to hear that Lu Liang is very interested in the new energy industry, and now he has officially confirmed that he will get involved personally, and the company is currently organizing a team building in Sanya.

They decisively gave up focusing on He Xiaopeng and temporarily decided to implement a policy of casting a wide net. The municipal secretary was waiting at the door of the hotel early in the morning and invited Lu Liang to come to the municipal building for a talk.

"Haima Automobile..."

Lu Liang looked thoughtful as he looked through Haima's information.

Since losing Mazda's brand trial rights ten years ago, Haima Automobile was forced to transform into independent research and development, and subsequently launched the Fumeilai series of models.

However, insufficient R&D capabilities gradually became apparent, the appearance design became increasingly non-mainstream, and sales have been lukewarm.

The 13 M8 has achieved total sales of 11.85 units in the past three years. It has to be said that it is a miracle that it has survived to this day.

And this miracle seems to have the possibility of continuing, because the country is promoting the new energy industry.

No matter how bad Haima is, it still has a complete vehicle manufacturing production line. Although the equipment is a bit old, it is still usable, which is exactly what the new car-making forces need most.

The person in charge of investment promotion at the side held his breath, drank tea absent-mindedly, and did not dare to urge him.

If this cooperation is finalized, it will be a strategic-level project worth at least tens of billions of yuan. By that time, the provincial leadership team will have to receive him personally, and it won't even be his turn to pour tea.

Officials and businessmen, although the official comes first, we also have to see what kind of businessmen they are. Lu Liang, who has tens of billions of funds in his hands, will undoubtedly be respected and treated with courtesy wherever he goes.

"Director Gao."

Lu Liang closed the information, and Director Gao responded hastily. Lu Liang said, "To be honest, I am indeed very interested."

Director Gao was delighted, and then he heard Lu Liang say, "But I don't know how to invest. I only know how to acquire, delist and privatize."

Haima Automobile is a state-owned enterprise which has been established for 28 years. It is not difficult to imagine that it should have the same problems as state-owned enterprises.

As it is a listed company with a market value of only 58 billion, Lu Liang does not want to deal with those trivial matters.

If he were to take over, the first thing he would do would be to delist and privatize the company, and then carry out a major purge from top to bottom.

All those who are doing nothing but eating for a living, those parasites and blood-sucking creatures, should be kicked out without leaving a single one.

Director Gao's smile was stiff, with bitterness on his lips: "Mr. Lu, Haima is a 28-year-old strong company after all."

They invited Lu Liang to join the family, not to break it up.

The acquisition by Luliang will indeed be beneficial to the development of the new energy industry if Haima still produces on the island.

But if he agrees, he will offend many people.

Privatization will definitely purge a group of people, and the first to be affected are those with nepotism.

"Existing for a long time does not mean being strong." Lu Liang smiled.

Director Gao smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Lu, what do you think of the business environment on our island?"

Since they couldn't save the seahorse and couldn't sell it, they had to settle for the next best thing and invite Lu Liang to invest and build a factory here.

They will definitely give extraordinary courtesy, giving Luliang the same extraordinary treatment that Magic City gave to Tesla and Shenzhen gave to BYD.

Lu Liang pondered for a long time and said, "Director Gao, I have always been interested in the new energy industry and have invested in many related industries, but the right time has not come for car manufacturing."

There have been reports online that the island is about to become a free trade port, and is indeed suitable for the development of new energy industries.

But the geographical location is the biggest disadvantage. For example, Ideal and Lifan cooperated to build a factory in southern Jiangsu, and NIO and JAC were in Luzhou, both of which can radiate the whole country from all directions. An island is just an island, with the sea behind it.

Even with strong support from the provincial government, it can only radiate along a single line and cannot develop along multiple lines.

After all, the other party is the director of municipal investment promotion and has received instructions from the provincial government. We cannot reject his goodwill in person.

Be a little more tactful and don't say anything too final.

Leave some room for maneuver so that we can still be friends when we meet next time.

Director Gao heard the hidden meaning and said, "Mr. Lu, next time you have any ideas, please be sure to contact us."

"sure."

In the afternoon, Lu Liang was wandering around the municipal government, and Director Gao also revealed a lot of inside information.

If the free trade port rumors on the Internet are true, there is indeed such a plan and it will be implemented soon. For example, the World New Energy Vehicle Conference, which has already been approved, will most likely be located on the island.

Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: although their island has a poor geographical location, inconvenient transportation, and a population of less than 10 million.

But the country has never forgotten them and plans to build this place into a new energy pilot zone and a unique economic free trade port in the country.

According to the terminology of the financial industry, investing now means holding original shares, which have unlimited potential in the future.

When Lu Liang heard this, he always tactfully said that he would go back and think about it carefully.

Director Gao stopped trying to persuade him and focused on taking Lu Liang around to play and visit places. Maybe he would have some ideas.

As night fell, Lu Liang declined the dinner invitation and returned to the MGM Hotel.

Yalong Bay is very lively at night.

Lu Liang was having dinner in the hotel restaurant when suddenly a group of people ran past the door, followed by a group of people carrying guns and cameras.

It was very noisy, breaking the quiet atmosphere. Lu Liang frowned and looked at Wen Chao: "Go ask, what's going on?"

After a while, Wen Chao came back after understanding the situation and replied, "Mr. Lu, they are filming a variety show."

Lu Liang understood and didn't ask any more questions. They only booked more than a hundred rooms, not booked the entire hotel.

In recent years, variety reality shows have been very popular, especially the hit shows, which make wherever they are filmed popular.

The crew borrowed the venue for filming and helped with publicity for free. I don't think any hotel would refuse.

Lu Liang was eating the island's specialties alone. Today's planned activities included snorkeling, sea fishing, and camping on an isolated island.

After noon, Tang Caidie followed his colleagues from the company to go out to sea on a yacht. Now he was the only one left in the hotel and couldn't find anyone else to eat with.

Not long after, a petite figure suddenly ran past, followed by several cameramen.

Lu Liang didn't have time to look back to check the situation. As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Huang Xiaoming standing in front of him.

"Mr. Lu Lu..."

Huang Xiaoming opened his eyes wide, stunned. He was also an investor in the fund and was just using Xiao Wang's channels.

He has a very good relationship with Xiao Wang. Last year, when he and Yang Tianbao held their wedding of the century, Xiao Wang came to support them and served as best man.

At that time, the two had talked about Lu Liang more than once. Huang Xiaoming had always admired Lu Liang and wanted to meet him.

It's just that we didn't have the chance to meet each other. I didn't expect that the first meeting would be like this.

"Master Huang, what show are you filming?" Lu Liang nodded with a smile.

"Mr. Lu, you can just call me Xiao Ming."

Huang Xiaoming looked embarrassed and said quickly: "Our program is called "Everyone Speeds Up."

"Have you eaten yet? Why don't you sit down and eat something together?"

Lu Liang had never heard of it, nor had he seen it. He remembered that he had heard from Xiao Wang that Huang Xiaoming had a share in the first private placement.

Even though it was only $100 million, less than one cent, we were still friends.
