1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 568 Please

As the saying goes, whether it is braised or steamed, you must first have meat before you can talk about what to do next.

Therefore, faced with objective constraints in multiple dimensions, the Isolated Island No. 2 project, which had just changed its civil engineering and equipment plans, finally passed the environmental re-evaluation and resumed work after being suspended for more than ten days due to environmental issues... Of course, the equipment plan was revised again and basically returned to the original plan.

On the third day after the restart of the Isolated Island No. 2 project, a company called Qilu Huarong Asset Management Group was quietly established with a relatively low-key signing ceremony.

Although this is the second large-scale asset management company in Dezhou besides Dahua Company, and once established, it has five project subsidiaries involved in different industries, with the initial asset scale alone exceeding 6.8 million yuan; but the irony is that such a large unit with a scale sufficient to surpass 97% of all types of enterprises in the country has not been notified to the public except for a few simple public notices in the tofu block of the Dezhou Daily.

Of course, with the establishment of Qilu Huarong, the general manager of a certain urban real estate fund company's trips to the city increased sharply. If he only needed to go to the city two or three times a week before, now, except for weekends, he has to go to the city every day.

Although the frequency of going to the city has increased sharply, the number of meetings attended has decreased instead of increased. If Yang Mo went to the city eight out of ten times in the past were for meetings, then now, it is already the most that he can go there two or three times out of ten to attend work meetings.

To anyone who was paying close attention, the meaning of these changes couldn't be more obvious!

………………

"Mr. Yang, this is the planning map of the new urban area in the city, as well as the shantytown reconstruction plan in the relevant areas. Take a look at it first and see if you have any suggestions."

You Yakun personally made a pot of tea for Yang Mo, and then said with a smile: "The renovation of shantytowns is of great importance, and no aspect can be sloppy. This draft is already the third draft from the Urban Planning Bureau... Mr. Yang, take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be improved from the perspective of work implementation in this version of the plan?"

Since Yang Mo has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Shen Xing and Qilu Huarong has been officially listed, the first and foremost task is to find work for the construction company under Qilu Huarong Group, which has tens of thousands of employees.

This area happens to be one of the strengths of Dezhou Urban Property Fund Company, so without hesitation, Yang Mo immediately found You Yakun and expressed his willingness to contribute to the expansion of the new city of DZ City.

Although the default rule is that once the Urban Property Fund Company helps the city to raise enough urban construction funds, then the subsequent civil engineering and infrastructure work will give priority to a construction company under the Qilu Huarong Group, but You Yakun is obviously happy to see this happen - the construction of Dezhou New City has always been plagued by funding issues. Therefore, when the funds in the Urban Property Fund Company's urban construction account have basically run out, and the city cannot temporarily come up with so much budget, they are overjoyed that Yang Mo is willing to issue additional municipal bonds to help raise funds. What does the contracting rights of some civil engineering projects count for?
You know, the large-scale expansion of the new city means that it can stimulate a wave of demand for cement, steel bars, building materials, logistics and transportation, as well as various equipment, bring more orders and employment opportunities to related local companies in DZ City, and create more GDP, and this is what he really cares about.

However, although Yang Mo's capital appeal is recognized as first-class, since the establishment of Dezhou Urban Development Fund Company, the private capital in Dezhou and Lanling has been absorbed by his successive big moves. Although You Yakun believes that if this guy takes action, he will definitely be able to raise a considerable amount of private capital, the reality is that it is hard to say whether the funds raised can meet the needs of the new city expansion and related shantytown renovation projects.

Therefore, before the formal meeting, he asked Yang Mo to look at the shantytown renovation plans against the city planning map and asked him to put forward his own opinions... The reason why he repeatedly asked Yang Mo if he had any "improvement suggestions" was actually to ask him how much money your urban real estate fund company was confident of raising? Is this money enough for the expansion of the new city? If not, how much? Which plots of land development and shantytown renovation projects need to be postponed temporarily?
Yang Mo took the thick shantytown renovation plans from You Yakun's secretary, smiled and said thank you softly: "Thank you for your hard work, Director."

Hearing Yang Mo actually call him by his job title instead of "Secretary Xie" as many people are used to, the thirty-five or thirty-six-year-old secretary was slightly surprised, but then he quickly calmed down and replied with a humble smile: "Boss Yang, you are being polite."

After saying that, he asked You Yakun for instructions and then left the office very obediently.

However, at the moment when he stepped back and closed the door, there was a hint of confusion in the secretary's eyes when he looked at Yang Mo.

You Yakun saw all of this and couldn't help laughing: "Boss Yang, you treat Xiao Xie like this... Aren't you afraid that other people will know and misunderstand you?"

Although it is just a small title, there is almost no secretary, especially the chief secretary, who really likes to be called "Secretary X". After all, although this may seem more intimate and respectful, it has the connotation of being a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, and there is also a lingering feeling of being a private minister;

Therefore, Yang Mo addressed the other party with the formal title of "Director Xie". Although it seemed a bit strange at first, it actually gave the other party full respect.

You know, Yang Mo had often clashed with You Yakun at work before, but now he not only took the initiative to undertake the fundraising work for the expansion of the new city, but also treated the other person's chief secretary in such an attitude. If this gets out, what will other people think?
Hearing this, Yang Mo smiled softly: "Mayor You, it doesn't matter what others think. What matters is...dividing the spoils. You must have something to divide first, right?"

"We are in agreement on developing the Texas economy and making the pie stronger and bigger quickly. The rest is not within my consideration for now."

Upon hearing this, You Yakun's eyes were slightly strange, but his smile was full of appreciation: "Boss Yang is indeed a talent entrusted with important tasks by the organization. What he said is really well-spoken... The words are rough but the truth is true. Development is the hard truth. The first priority at the moment is to unite as one and boost the economy of DZ City."

Yang Mo pursed his lips and showed a smile that was in line with social expectations, but did not respond. He just lowered his head and carefully looked through the shantytown renovation plans that had been revised countless times.

Time passed quickly. Yang Mo quickly read through the shantytown renovation plans at a glance, then closed his eyes and began to ponder.

Seeing Yang Mo's behavior, You Yakun couldn't help but feel his heart hanging in his throat, fearing that this guy in front of him would tell him in the end that the amount of money required was too large and he could not help.

Fortunately, Yang Mo opened his eyes quickly. Although the sigh was quite frightening, the following words made You Yakun fall into ecstasy.

"Well, although the budget gap of 2.45 million is indeed somewhat shocking, the Urban Property Fund Company should be able to solve the funding problem with its best efforts... Mayor You, we at Dezhou Urban Property Fund Company have no objection to this draft plan."

Yang Mo's tone was very calm, and his expression showed no sign of sadness or joy, but anyone who knew him well could see the unusual heaviness between his brows.

Come to think of it, Dezhou Urban Property Fund Company has been making big moves since its establishment, with one series of plans after another sucking up all the surplus funds of enterprises in Dezhou and Lanling. Even the subsequent plan to develop the Mexican springboard market requires the entrustment of Xialiu Sales Agency to find more than 700 village collective enterprises to raise funds. This shows the extent to which the private capital pools in the two places are currently drying up.

The scale of 2.45 million may not be worth mentioning in the future, but at present, even if it is used for urban expansion, it is definitely not a small amount of money. Therefore, considering the actual situation, when it is difficult to borrow support from the banking system, the difficulty of making up the gap in funds is absolutely hellish.

Hearing that Yang Mo had agreed to the deal without even asking for advice or bargaining, You Yakun was really surprised this time: "Boss Yang, do you really have no suggestions for adjustments? For example...extending the construction period, dividing the second phase of the expansion planning project into three years?"

In fact, there is no need to think that things in the administrative system are so mysterious. Asking for a high price and paying a low price is a very common thing... In fact, at the beginning, You Yakun really didn't expect Yang Mo to agree to the matter right away.

Yang Mo smiled at him and said, "No need. Now is the stage of rapid economic recovery in China. The sooner the planned new city is expanded and the basic configuration of the urban area is improved, the more opportunities Dezhou will have." "Besides, Dezhou Urban Property Fund Company originally undertakes the tasks of urban infrastructure investment and industrial upgrading at the same time. As long as the planning and coordination are reasonable, large-scale infrastructure investment can not only effectively boost local economic vitality and solve the employment problems of the masses, but also stimulate industrial upgrading through consumption and terminal demand...Industrial upgrading requires comprehensive ecological stimulation, not just as simple as technological upgrading. Ensuring the functional relationship between M1 and M2 currencies in a stable region is also a crucial link."

Yang Mo thought for a moment and said, "Our Urban Property Fund Company plans to raise the 2.45 million yuan by issuing three waves of municipal bonds. The first batch of funds will be in place before the 10th of next month, and the amount will be guaranteed to be no less than 1 million yuan; the remaining two funds will be in place at the end of October and the end of December respectively... Mayor You, when the time comes, please refer to this node and ask the relevant departments to formulate a construction and coordination plan."

Hearing this, You Yakun couldn't help but twitch his eyes, and there was a hint of toothache in his eyes when he looked at Yang Mo.

What does it mean to “ensure the functional relationship between M1 and M2 money within a stable area”?
To put it bluntly, this is a warning for me to use leverage with caution and ensure that the 2.45 million construction funds can ultimately flow effectively to enterprises and individual employees, and ultimately return to become the M0 amount in the Texas area?
At first glance, this sounds like a simple "meat rotting in the pot" cycle, but anyone with a bit of brains knows how difficult it is to make the M0, M1, and M2 links flow relatively smoothly... especially the link where M1 flows to M2.

Good boy, you have turned the tables. No wonder you agreed to the budget shortfall of 2.45 million without even frowning. You have been waiting for me here for so long! ?
Yang Mo looked at You Yakun frowning and laughed: "Mayor You, I repeat, if we want to divide the spoils, we must first divide the dirt. When it comes to developing the economy of Dezhou and quickly making the pie bigger and stronger, we are on the same page!"

Listening to Yang Mo repeating his previous words word for word, You Yakun pondered for a long while, then sighed and smiled: "You are right, although there is nothing wrong with planning for defeat before planning for victory, but if possible, it is better to plan for victory first... Mr. Yang, don't worry, I will sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk with Mr. He at that time. Within the scope of my ability, I personally don't want to see anyone asking for money without permission."

Anyone who has a little knowledge of macroeconomics knows where obstacles are most likely to occur in the circulation of money from M1 to M2 within a region. Therefore, the implicit request that Yang Mo made at the end was clearly forcing You Yakun and Ye Tao to work together.

Without the help of Ye Tao, a local, You Yakun, who had not yet established a firm foothold, would have no way to deal with the various clandestine methods used by the grassroots during the implementation process;
Without You Yakun's protection, Ye Tao would have absolutely no way to deal with those noblemen who came all the way from the provincial capital.

In short, if this cooperation goes smoothly, You Yakun will certainly get a brilliant report card, but Ye Tao will also benefit a lot. Moreover, based on the actual situation, the benefits Ye Tao gets are even more and more tangible than You Yakun.

However, there is no way. Just as Yang Mo said, since the organization arranged for You Yakun to come to Dezhou to preside over economic construction work, no matter what kind of tricks are involved, both sides have the same position on the rapid and high-quality development of Dezhou's economy. If You Yakun does not even have this little bit of position and awareness, then he can just go home.

But no matter what, You Yakun, who was a senior secretary, has met countless talented people in his more than 20 years of work career, but this is the first time he has seen a game-changer like Yang Mo.

This kind of person is not under your control, and there is no problem with his position. You can either refuse with justification or cooperate extremely actively. In fact, he forces you to follow his intentions, but he fully takes care of your core demands. Within the established game framework, he really doesn't know how to deal with it.

Thinking of this, You Yakun shook his head, getting rid of the strange feeling of powerlessness in his heart, then suddenly laughed and changed the subject as if chatting: "By the way, Mr. Yang, there is a flood in East China now, and the organization calls on all parties and regions to donate money to support the victims;"

"In recent days, all units in the city have actively responded to the call, and some units with relatively good performance have even directly mobilized all their employees to donate 30 yuan in one go."

"But I heard that... your Dezhou Urban Property Fund Company only donated 10 yuan in total?"

Hearing this, Yang Mo smiled noncommittally: "Dahua Company also donated 30 yuan."

You Yakun shook his head in dissatisfaction: "Although the management entity of the Urban Property Fund Company is Dahua Company, Dahua Company is Dahua Company, and the Urban Property Fund Company is the Urban Property Fund Company."

You Yakun's meaning was very clear. Dahua Company and Dezhou Urban Property Fund, as the two undisputed giant enterprises in DZ City, should have taken the lead at this time. Not to mention that considering the scale of Urban Property Fund Company, it was a bit excessive to donate a pitiful 10 yuan in total. Even if it was Dahua Company that donated 30 yuan... For other companies, donating 30 yuan is called doing their best, but considering the asset scale and profit level of your Dahua Company, donating 30 yuan is just doing your job!
If someone uses this matter to make a fuss, saying that you are not ideologically aware enough would be the lightest punishment. If they really want to put a big hat of "lacking responsibility and unwilling to assume social responsibility" on you, then you will really suffer.

Yang Mo looked at You Yakun, who had a hint of teasing in his eyes, and smiled politely: "Mayor You, when the organization opens the channel for material assistance, both Dahua Company and Urban Property Fund Company will definitely not lag behind. But as for this donation... it's enough to be about right."

He calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip. "As for whether someone will make a fuss about the amount of donations from the Urban Real Estate Fund and Dahua Company... I think Mayor You is worrying too much."

"There are some things that ordinary people don't understand, but Mayor You knows them very well... At present, the mainstream media has not even fully disclosed the primary and secondary objective causes of this flood. Do you think anyone would be stupid enough to make a fuss about the donation amount of Dahua Company and Chengchan Fund Company?"

After saying that, Yang Mo gently put down the teacup and looked at You Yakun steadily: "As I said before, as a pilot city for the tax-sharing reform, Dezhou shoulders a very important task;"

"Dezhou is short of money now, and the Urban Property Fund Company is also short of money, so every penny must be used wisely; the organization knows much more about the situations in various places than ordinary people; whether you really care about the people, whether you really stand high, or are you just showing off, the organization knows much more clearly than you do."

"So although I am very grateful for your kindness, Mayor You, as far as I am concerned, if you ask me to organize the companies in Dezhou and Lanling to use all their assets to deliver the supplies to the disaster-stricken people, then I will lead the team myself without hesitation;"

"But if it's just a donation, the Urban Property Fund Company has done its best by donating 10 yuan."

Although there were many things in Yang Mo's words that could not be said openly, You Yakun did not show any anger. Instead, he shook his head with a look of amazement: "Boss Yang, Boss Yang, everyone says that you have a strong sense of the underworld in your bones. I didn't think so before, but today I see that it is true... You are really brave to say it!"

After that, You Yakun took out a cigarette and passed it over, with a few more efficiency on his face: "In that case, I'll trouble you, Mr. Yang, to fill the 2.45 million funding gap for the new urban area expansion!"

Yang Mo took the flower: "Don't worry Mayor You, they said the first batch of funds will be in place before the 10th of next month, so it will definitely be in place...but there is one thing that Mayor You needs to help with."

You Yakun was stunned: "What's the matter?"

Yang Mo's eyes were somewhat incomprehensible: "The organization intends to exert the power of the group and is considering opening channels for material support to various places... So, if possible, I hope that Mayor You can take the initiative to help our Dezhou Urban Property Fund Company get a place in the first batch of material rescue."

Eh? ?

You Yakun looked at the young man in front of him in surprise. He never expected that the other party's request would be this...
