pinnacle of power

The phone was connected, and Huang Lihai's voice came from the phone: "Comrade Liu Qingyu, how is your financing for the expressway going? Is it going well?"

Hearing that Huang Lihai was concerned about this matter, Liu Qingyu didn't care either. After all, as the mayor, it's normal for him to care about it.Liu Qingyu reported directly: "Mayor Huang, my side is progressing relatively smoothly. About half of the funds have been resolved, and the remaining half is also being resolved."

Huang Lihai was shocked when he heard the news. He didn't expect that Liu Qingyu raised about half of the funds within a few days after receiving the funds. This speed is really too fast.

Thinking of this, Huang Lihai had to pretend to be very appreciative and said: "Well, Comrade Liu Qingyu is not bad, it is worthy of recognition for raising so much funds so quickly."

Liu Qingyu smiled and said, "Thank you, Mayor Huang, for your compliment. This is what I should do."

Huang Lihai nodded: "Well, very good, Comrade Liu Qingyu, I'm calling you today mainly to tell you that you don't have to worry about the remaining part of the funds. The Bank of Japan has repeatedly communicated and finally persuaded Escape, and they have now expressed their willingness to participate in this expressway construction project, they are very interested in this expressway project in your Ruiyuan County, and are willing to pay for the construction of this project.”

Liu Qingyu was stunned when he heard the news. He never expected that Huang Lihai would bring him such good news. He immediately said with some emotion: "Mayor Huang, thank you, thank you to the city leaders for your kindness to us. support for county work."

Huang Lihai said with a smile: "Liu Qingyu, don't be polite to me. Who told me to be the city leader? What's more, I am also a cadre from Ruiyuan County. If the expressway project in Ruiyuan County can be completed as soon as possible It is also my wish to bring the economy of our Ruiyuan County on the right track faster. It is estimated that the Japanese bank will send someone to your Ruiyuan County tomorrow morning. You should communicate with the other party and get the financing as soon as possible. The matter is finalized, and the project will be launched as soon as possible.”

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qingyu was in a good mood.He secretly said in his heart: "It seems that although Huang Lihai has all kinds of shortcomings, he is still good in terms of the overall situation, and he is also good in essence. He can do everything possible to raise funds for Ruiyuan County when Ruiyuan County is most difficult. , He did show the bearing that a party member and cadre should have."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qingyu took Cao Shuhui and Murong Qianxue into the car and sent them to Ruiyuan Hotel.

Ruiyuan Hotel is a relatively good hotel in Ruiyuan County. Liu Xiaofei, Liu Xiaopang and others usually live there when they come to Ruiyuan County.Liu Qingyu made arrangements for Cao Shuhui and Murong Qianxue, and then made an appointment with the two of them to go hiking with them after finishing work tomorrow, and then left.

Although the next day was the weekend, as the secretary of the county party committee, Liu Qingyu could not rest every weekend. As long as he had work, he had to show up in the office building of the county party committee.

At 8:30 in the morning, the huge office building of the county party committee was quiet. Most of the staff had gone on weekends. Only some of the staff on duty were still at their posts. Everyone knew Liu Qingyu's habits, so he still worked as usual. Similarly, those who have work are busy with work, and those who do not have work remain silent.

At this moment, the sound of knocking on the door broke the silence of the entire building, and also broke Liu Qingyu's interest in drinking tea.

Liu Qingyu walked to the door, opened the door, and saw three well-dressed men in suits and leather shoes, accompanied by Mayor Huang Lihai's secretary Li Yi, walked in. After entering the door, Li Yi introduced with a smile: " Secretary Liu, let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Aso Saburo, the president of the Huaxia District Baiyun Branch of Japan's Sanling Bank, and these two are his assistants Sasaki and Kawaguchi Toshi. They represent Japan's Sanling Bank and You talk about the financing of your Ruiyuan County Expressway."

As he said that, Yili introduced the three Japanese to Liu Qingyu. The serious man standing in the front with black glasses was Saburo Aso, the fatter one behind was Governor Kawaguchi, and the shorter one was Sasaki.

After introducing the three Japanese, Li Yi introduced Liu Qingyu to them.

After the meeting between the two parties, Li Yi said with a smile: "Okay, after I have introduced you, my task will be completed. Secretary Liu, you can talk to them about the specific matters. I have to go back to Nanhua City."

Liu Qingyu smiled and said politely: "Secretary Li, shall we leave after lunch?"

Li Yi said with a smile: "No need, Mayor Huang still has something for me to do."

After Li Yi left, Liu Qingyu brought three Japanese people to the small meeting room of the county party committee. At the same time, he called Wei Honglin, the county magistrate, and Song Xiaojun, director of the county party committee office. Participate in negotiations with the Japanese together.

After the two parties sat down, Saburo Aso said directly in slightly blunt Chinese: "Secretary Liu, we heard that your Ruiyuan County is planning to build an expressway project. We are very interested in this and we are willing to invest."

Having said this, Aso Saburo stopped abruptly, and stopped talking, looking at Liu Qingyu and Wei Honglin with a smile in his eyes.

Liu Qingyu was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that Saburo Aso is really cunning. Is he obviously playing fishing tricks?He was waiting to raise conditions, but he didn't take the initiative to raise conditions, but waited for Liu Qingyu and the others to ask.

According to Liu Qingyu's original intention, the best way at this time is to keep silent, but Wei Honglin next to him couldn't hold back anymore, and said directly: "President Aso Saburo, our Ruiyuan County is still short of more than [-] million yuan in funds. Didn't you know you were able to invest so much money?"

Saburo Aso said calmly, "It's only a few hundred million, it's just a piece of cake for us."

Excitement suddenly appeared on Wei Honglin's face, and he said hastily, "That's really great. Our Ruiyuan County warmly welcomes you to invest in this project."

Regarding Wei Honglin's excitement, Aso Saburo was very calm. He just looked at Wei Honglin with a smile as before, but didn't say anything.

Wei Honglin suddenly felt that he was a little too excited, and the silence at the scene made him a little embarrassed, but he was also very smart, and immediately said with a smile: "President Aso Saburo, since losing your investment is not a problem for your sister, I think, your sister There must be your investment conditions, right?"

Wei Honglin was able to sit in the position of the county magistrate, and his insight was relatively strong. The temporary embarrassment immediately allowed him to understand the tricks of the Japanese, and directly asked the question that the other party expected.

After hearing Wei Honglin's words, Aso Saburo smiled and said: "The investment must be conditional. After all, although the multi-billion yuan is just a piece of cake for our Sanling Bank, if it is placed in your Huaxia, especially if it is placed In your Ruiyuan County, this is definitely a huge amount of money, and, as the president of Sanling Bank, our investment must be rewarded, so we must plan the most reasonable investment conditions for our investment .”

Wei Honglin nodded: "That's for sure, what are your conditions?"

While Wei Honglin was speaking, Liu Qingyu sat there calmly, his eyes lightly sweeping over the faces of the three Japanese.He found that when Aso Saburo spoke just now, the three Japanese all showed a strong arrogance, and the corners of their mouths even turned up.

Saburo Aso said lightly: "We have three conditions. First, as far as the entire expressway project is concerned, we are willing to invest 3% of the project investment and obtain a controlling stake in the entire project, and we must obtain a controlling stake. If If the joint investment of other investors exceeds 51% of the shares, then you must withdraw part of the funds so that we can obtain a controlling stake in the entire project;

Second, after the project is completed, when the entire expressway project is in operation in the future, we at Sanling Bank will be responsible for the operation and management of the entire project, so as to prevent your Huaxia-style corruption from becoming a toxin that affects the failure of the entire project;

Third, during the project construction period, we must have the management initiative for the entire project construction, and we must also have the right to speak and dominate the materials, quality, and bidding of the project construction.In my opinion, the efficiency and dedication of our Japanese are the key factors to ensure the success of the whole project. "

After Saburo Aso finished speaking, Liu Qingyu, Wei Honglin, and Song Xiaojun all frowned.

None of them thought that the Japanese would propose such harsh conditions that they would hold the entire expressway project and be responsible for the overall operation of the project after it was completed.

At this time, Wei Honglin and Song Xiaojun all looked at Liu Qingyu's face. At this time, they had to look at Liu Qingyu's opinion first.

Liu Qingyu pondered for a while, then said lightly: "Mr. Saburo Aso, is this all your request?"

Saburo Aso nodded.

Liu Qingyu said: "Your conditions are too harsh, we may not be able to accept it, I allow you to invest 49% of the funds, but I absolutely cannot give you the controlling stake in the entire project, nor can I give you the right to operate the entire project. It is even more impossible to give you the leading right in the early stage of the entire project construction, you can participate in the preparation and operation of the entire project, but you must not be the leader.”

Saburo Aso shook his head with a direct smile and said, "I'm sorry, but our conditions in Japan won't go down in the slightest. This is our condition. If you can't agree, we won't invest."
