Chapter 327 Secret Meeting
Xu Qingshan's original leisure and relaxing time ended after Liu Cigui's phone call.

Back in the house, Jiang Huanxi and Tong Tong finished watching all the "Ultimate Three Kingdoms" that were available on TV on demand, and then started watching "KO One" from a few years ago.

Xu Qingshan glanced at Jiro Wang on TV.

Who knew that this man would not have changed at all after more than ten years? It was as if his age had been frozen.

Seeing the two little girls chattering about the plot, Xu Qingshan had no intention of interrupting them and returned to his room.

Life after returning to Longjiang is completely different from before.

Relaxed, without restrictions, and even somewhat without goals.

Because if Xu Qingshan wants to do any job that matches his current status and strength, as long as it involves work-related interactions with people, the only two ways left are email and phone calls.

This often affects some scholars who need to frequently participate in offline discussions and experimental work and have to go to big cities.

Ludao wants to transform itself into a technology city.

A sufficient number and quality of scientific research staff and scholars are essential.

Otherwise, we will not be able to retain talent.

Although big cities have inherent advantages, such as more abundant financial funds and greater international visibility.

But Xu Qingshan also knew a little more clearly.

Southern Fujian is actually not that bad.

As the core city of southern Fujian, Ludao also has an international airport. As a local special economic zone, it has a lot of surplus funds from land finance and tourism dividends. It also has a green environment and scenery that are enough to impress many scholars, as well as a deep-water port that can berth giant ships.

The only problem is cross-strait relations and the special situation.

But what Xu Qingshan knew more clearly was that as time went on, the little green island, which relied entirely on the support of the United States, simply had no ability to compete head-on with China. Although it was close, Lu Island was much safer than imagined.

After clarifying these things, Xu Qingshan called Qiu Yong and made an appointment.

It is impossible to fully explain the specific details of the cooperation over the phone. Moreover, we want to first promote the cooperation between Ludao and Liangxi. Only after resolving the problems of Liangxi Suntech can we use such a project as a basis to attract Huaqing University and Peking University to invest in the first phase of infrastructure in the local area.

2 month 18 day.

There are only three days left until the start of school at Kyoto University.

Xu Qingshan changed into a suit and waited with Liu Cigui in a special passage outside the airport.

There were not many people accompanying him, only core security forces and secretaries, and no extra media or irrelevant personnel. This meeting was considered a private meeting that was not open to the public.

Because Qiu Yong was not the only one who came.

"They have landed, and the shuttle will be coming over here soon."

After receiving the news, Secretary Fang quickly walked to Liu Cigui and whispered.

"it is good."

Liu Cigui looked at Xu Qingshan who was calm beside him. He took a deep breath and asked.

"Qingshan, we should have communicated our intentions with Professor Qiu and the others before coming here, right?"

Xu Qingshan nodded, reached out and gently patted Liu Cigui's arm, and said with a smile.

"Lao Liu, don't be nervous, relax. We all have the same intention. This time we are here just for a simple meeting, not for negotiation. Don't be so anxious."

"I'm not nervous."

Liu Cigui was stubborn.

Fang Mi stood still behind, his eyes on the nose, and his nose on the heart.

Although he had no idea what happened during this Spring Festival, it seemed that the relationship between the young scientist Xu Qingshan and his leader had made rapid progress.

This kind of pat on the shoulder is called Lao Liu's action. In the two years that Secretary Fang has been running errands for Mayor Liu, he has never seen any superior leader do this.

After all, Liu Cigui's rank is very high.

If the mayor of an ordinary city comes in front of Lao Liu, he will have to bow half his head.

"Clap."

There was the sound of a door opening. This was a special VIP passage, and there was a huge screen between the door and the hall. It was also Xu Qingshan's first time here.

"coming."

I heard footsteps behind the screen and figures appeared from the corner of the screen. There were about seven or eight people coming to Lu Island this time.

Among this group of people, Xu Qingshan only knew Qiu Yong. The square-faced man next to him with slightly graying temples had a resolute look on his face.

"Mayor Liu, thank you very much."

This square-faced man looked tired, but when he saw Liu Cigui, a smile appeared on his face. It was just that the smile made the wrinkles on his face look a bit like old chrysanthemums.

This kind of mental state is actually quite rare to see in a senior official.

After all, their treatment and nutritional health are definitely up to par, unless they are extremely overworked, in which case even a large amount of nutritional supplementation will not be able to restore their physical condition.

"Mayor Zhu, nice to meet you."

Liu Cigui held Zhu Kejiang's big hand and waved it.

For some reason, after seeing Zhu Kejiang's condition and gray hair, Liu Cigui suddenly relaxed, as if they had known each other for a long time.

But at this level, if you only talk about feelings, you would be stupid.

The two of them had a good impression of each other. As the protagonists of this meeting, they exchanged a few words and started chatting, then sat aside.

"Qingshan, sorry for the long wait. Let them talk among themselves first. I'll introduce them to you."

Qiu Yong took several others and pulled Xu Qingshan to the other side.

He and Xu Qingshan are considered middlemen, and the others are people who assist in the operation and supervision of this industrial transfer.

"This is Director Liu Rongxian of the Jiangnan Branch of the State Development Bank of China."

"This is Director Cao Sumin of the Jiangnan Provincial Department of Science and Technology."

Qiu Yong briefly introduced the identities of several people.

"I don't think I need to introduce this young talent in detail, right?"

Qiu Yong held Xu Qingshan's shoulder with one hand and said with a smile.

"Of course not, I dream about it every day."

Cao Sumin continued the conversation with a smile, and was about to say something, but was stuck. It seemed that he couldn't think of a more appropriate way to address Xu Qingshan for a moment.

"Director Cao, just call me Xiao Xu."

Xu Qingshan smiled and nodded.

Cao Sumin smiled naturally, snorted twice, and continued.

"Then I will call you Xiao Xu because of my age. I have always dreamed that our Jiangnan Province could produce a person like you. Dean Qiu just praised me. I am actually a deputy director with an idle position. I came here with our Director Zhu."

"Zhu Hall?"

Xu Qingshan looked at Qiu Yong.

"Director Zhu is the director of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology. He is also a local official. He is serious and proactive in his work. He went to Liangxi before the New Year, so he can adapt to the working environment in advance."

Cao Sumin explained. "It's a good thing that Zhu Ting came to Liangxi, otherwise this matter would not be resolved like it is now."

Xu Qingshan nodded.

He did not make any comments. Whether Zhu Kejiang's situation complied with the procedures was not important.

However, this should be the first time he heard of an example of taking over work at the local level before completely resigning from his provincial job. It seems that the current situation in Jiangnan Province is not particularly optimistic.

Xu Qingshan had no intention of delving into the political inside story. He just wanted to do his job well and improve people's livelihood.

As long as he stands on the right general direction, he will not easily get into trouble.

"I'm going to have to thank Dean Qiu and Xiao Xu for your hard work this time. If this matter is reported to the higher-ups, I'm afraid that those of us who are here will be in trouble."

Liu Rongxian, who had been quiet on the side, suddenly spoke.

He said it very bluntly, with the same tired smile on his face.

When Suntech collapsed, the China Development Bank, which provided the largest loan amount to Suntech, was the first to be blamed. Even the Liangxi government was not as likely to be blamed as them.

After all, how could the China Development Bank provide so much funding and loans to Suntech, a company with such qualifications and industrial structure?

And Liu Rongxian is the main person in charge of this matter.

"We are all working for the rapid progress of society, and that's what we should do."

Xu Qingshan shook Liu Rongxian's hand and agreed tactfully.

They were chatting, and Zhu Kejiang and Liu Cigui had also finished their conversation. This was not a place to discuss important matters. They met and chatted just to dispel some strangeness and get to know each other.

Because their operation this time is not like the traditional cooperation between the two places, nor is it the common official introduction.

Instead, it was inter-city cooperation carried out with the municipal level as the highest unit without any explicit authorization from the provincial party committee.

Both sides are under tremendous pressure.

Once something goes wrong, among everyone present, perhaps only Xu Qingshan and Qiu Yong, who have special identities and slightly superior status, will be safe, but no one else will be able to escape.

The only difference is where it is taken.

But there is no way.

Liangxi needs to find a glimmer of hope in this situation and digest the impact of this explosion into optimization and promotion of the local economy and industry.

Ludao is going to make a bold attempt to find a breakthrough path for the future and avoid falling into a cycle of chronic solidification and stagnation.

It can be said that they have no choice.

None of them will miss this opportunity.

Several Volkswagen Bora quietly drove away from the airport without any fanfare or exposure. The group of people who flew all the way from Jiangnan quietly checked into the Ludao Municipal Guesthouse.

That night.

The lights in a meeting room of the Ludao Municipal Government were turned on, but fortunately they were blocked by thick curtains and were not noticeable.

In the conference room, Xu Qingshan, Qiu Yong, Liu Cigui, Zhu Kejiang and others sat on both sides. Some core cadres of higher level in Ludao were also called by Liu Cigui to attend the meeting.

Xu Qingshan sat directly next to Liu Cigui, clearly taking the number two position on the Ludao side.

Zhu Kejiang glanced at Qiu Yong, but Qiu Yong shook his head.

"Mr. Zhu, the industrial sectors and core production lines that we have basically selected on Ludao are on this list. You can take a look at it. If there are no objections, we will move on to the next agenda."

Liu Cigui did not use anyone else to make the statement, but expressed his opinion personally and handed the five-page list in his hand to Zhu Kejiang.

This list was expanded upon the list of projects that Xu Qingshan had planned to give Liu Cigui, and it took Liu Cigui's loyal subordinates in Ludao Municipal Government a lot of thought to come up with these five thin sheets of paper.

Zhu Kejiang took the list, looked through it carefully and repeatedly, then handed it to Cao Sumin and Liu Rongxian with a frown.

Before Zhu Kejiang could speak, Cao Sumin, who said she had an idle position, spoke first in a hurry.

"Mayor Liu, this is impossible. You have such a big appetite. We are here to seek cooperation, not to give away all the valuable things in Liangxi Suntech. Your list is almost like asking us to pack up all the core assets of Suntech and give them to you, leaving those hard bones for us to chew on."

Cao Sumin's attitude changed so quickly that even Xu Qingshan was a little surprised.

This old Cao seems to know some tricks.

"What does this Zhushi mean?"

Liu Cigui did not give up and looked at Zhu Kejiang.

Zhu Kejiang just sighed and said helplessly.

"Mayor Liu, I'm sorry. Lao Cao is a technical cadre who speaks his mind. Personally, I am willing to give you these industries of Suntech from an emotional and ideological point of view. Promoting the development of cities like Ludao is the correctness of our country's general policy. However, this time when splitting up Suntech, we will divide it according to debt and project valuation. What do you mean, Director Liu?"

Zhu Kejiang said this and turned to look at Liu Rongxian, who understood.

"If Ludao wants these industries, it may need to assume about 75% to 80% of Suntech's debts in various aspects. In this way, although it will be difficult for Liangxi and Guofa Bank, they can also absorb the rest. However, this is unrealistic because of Ludao's finances."

Liu Cigui subconsciously looked at Xu Qingshan.

Unlike Zhu Kejiang, who came well prepared and had the advantage of a background in the Department of Science and Technology.

There are not many cadres on the Ludao side who have a technical background, and even if there are, they are not involved in the semiconductor field. In Liu Cigui's mind, the most knowledgeable person on his side is naturally Xu Qingshan.

Xu Qingshan stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, interrupting Liu Rongxian's speech.

All the bigwigs present looked at Xu Qingshan, but Xu Qingshan was very calm. Compared to the scene he saw when he won the award in the Great Hall last month, this scene was still too small for him!
"Mr. Zhu, I'm not just a mathematician. Dean Qiu and his team at Huaqing are helping me perfect a scientific computing software, which can be said to be specifically used for photovoltaic materials and semiconductor materials."

Xu Qingshan glanced at Cao Sumin. Everyone was having a good chat just now. He continued.

"I also know a little about the production situation of companies in the semiconductor industry, especially the photovoltaic industry."

"so."

Xu Qingshan looked at Liu Rongxian again. Liu Rongxian was speechless. He couldn't make a decision and could only look at Zhu Kejiang.

There were more wrinkles on Zhu Kejiang's square face, and his brows were locked in a crisscross pattern.

He didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Qingshan quietly.

The conference room fell silent for a moment, and the atmosphere became somewhat gloomy and depressing.

Xu Qingshan leaned back in his chair with his chin slightly raised, with the words "youthful and frivolous" vividly written on his face.

But everyone here knows very well that Xu Qingshan is not that kind of person.

His attitude is easy to understand.

“We don’t have to bear that much debt share, but there are some items on the list that we Liangxi must keep.”

Zhu Kejiang stared at Xu Qingshan and no longer looked at Liu Cigui. He had already discovered that in this matter, the one who seemed to have the authority to talk to him was Liu Cigui.

In fact, the one who can truly determine whether this meeting achieves its purpose is the young man in front of him.

"Then Ludao must also carry out some projects."

Xu Qingshan sat up straight and looked at Zhu Kejiang without fear.

"Ludao has a choice, but Liangxi has no choice."

Liu Cigui was sweating profusely.

Didn't we agree to negotiate in a friendly manner? Why do I feel like the two are about to start a quarrel?
