I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 147 Welcome to Biyadi Investment Forum in our county

"President Fang? Hello, I'm Duan Anping from the secretariat of the government office." Duan Anping spoke authentic Nanxin dialect on the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Section Chief Duan, I'm Fang Qingye."

"This Thursday, please attend the county's symposium welcoming Biyadi's investment. You will speak as a representative of Oriental Bank. The official notice of the meeting will be sent to your unit by the county's investment promotion office. I'm giving you a heads-up so you can be prepared."

Fang Qingye was slightly surprised when he heard this. "I'm attending the meeting as a representative of the Dongfang Bank and making a statement. Chief Duan, you know I'm just the assistant to the president. That's not enough, right?"

"County Magistrate Hu personally asked you to participate. President Fang, don't worry about your identity. We will communicate with your President Xia." Duan Anping said with a smile on the phone.

"OK then."

"If you have any questions, you can call me directly."

"OK, thanks."

"Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone with Duan Anping, Fang Qingye thought for a moment and then called Miao Hongbin again.

The other party did not answer the call immediately. After a while, Miao Hongbin's voice was heard from the microphone. It was quite soft and seemed to be deliberately lowered.

"President Fang, I'm in a meeting at the county level. What's going on?"

"Director Miao, I won't bother you with such a small matter. You're busy." Fang Qingye said hurriedly.

"It's okay, I'm out now, you can talk."

"Secretary Duan just called me." Fang Qingye briefly explained the details and then said, "Director Miao, County Magistrate Hu asked me to attend this meeting. What's going on?"

"This one"

Miao Hongbin spoke on the phone.

It turned out that the senior management of Biyadi led an inspection team to arrive in Nan XH County a few days ago to talk with the leaders and conduct on-site inspections.

"The county held this symposium mainly to get banks, taxation, land, finance, and other departments, including your Dongfang Bank, to express their willingness to cooperate with the county and have Yadi settle in Nanxin. This is to show our sincerity. There's really nothing else to it."

"I know, but it seems a bit inappropriate to let me represent Dongfangxing, right?" Fang Qingye said.

"Since County Magistrate Hu personally named you, he must have his reasons. Just be prepared and don't worry about anything else."

"Okay then." Fang Qingye had no choice but to say.

"Okay, I have to get on with my meeting. President Fang, don't forget to go fishing on Saturday!"

"Unforgettable"

peat.

Now fishing with Miao Hongbin and playing ball with Xia He have become my weekend routine.

Fang Qingye also had some idea of ​​what County Magistrate Hu meant. Was it because he was the first one to propose introducing BYD and abandoning the land flying boat?

He held the teacup and drank it. He felt that it was necessary to tell Xia He about this matter.

Although she is my senior and we have a very good relationship now, we still need to communicate to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

To be honest, if Duan Anping hadn't called and said that County Magistrate Hu had personally named him, he really didn't want to go.

Knocking on the door of the president's office, Xia He was opening a document. Seeing Fang Qingye come in, she greeted him, "Sit down. What can I do for you?"

"It's something."

Fang Qingye just recounted Duan Anping's phone call, but of course he didn't mention the question that puzzled him.

Xia He smiled after hearing this: "I understand what the county means. They openly notified the person in charge of Dongfang Bank, but actually designated you to go. Are you worried that I will be unhappy?" "Yes, I don't think there is any need to create unnecessary misunderstandings because of such a small matter." Fang Qingye said.

"Well, to be honest, if I were to arrange this for someone else, I would feel a little uncomfortable, but it's different if I arrange it for you. It's great."

Fang Qingye was speechless when he heard what Xia He said. What a typical double standard.

"Hey, you said that County Magistrate Hu specifically asked you to go. Is there any other reason? Are you very familiar with County Magistrate Hu?" Xia He was a little curious.

"We're not that familiar with each other. We've had dinner together once." Fang Qingye recounted the whole story of how he met County Magistrate Hu.

There is nothing secret between me and Xia He.

"Oh, you're capable of that! Then you should go this time," Xia He said, then pondered for a moment. "When the county meeting notice comes out, I'll say I have to report to the city bank on Thursday and can't leave. I'll let you attend the meeting in my place. That way, everything will go smoothly."

Fang Qingye nodded. This was exactly what he had told Xia He in advance.

At nine o'clock on Thursday morning, the "Biadi Investment Seminar" was held in the third conference room of the government building. Fang Qingye arrived at the venue ten minutes early and saw his colleagues: the top presidents of state-owned banks such as China Construction Bank, Agricultural Bank of China, and Postal Savings Bank.

They were all a little surprised to see Fang Qingye coming to the meeting.

"President Fang, is there something wrong with your President Xia?"

"Yes, the municipal bank held an emergency meeting today and required the top leader to attend, so President Xia asked me to attend the meeting on her behalf." Fang Qingye explained.

"Very good, President Fang. You will be taking over President Xia's job in the future."

The other party was naturally joking. Fang Qingye smiled bitterly when he heard it.

He really didn't think so.

The president is too tired.

Why make it so hard?
What’s the difference between this and the previous life?
Of course, I can't say that out loud. I can only say that the other person is joking. How can I be qualified?

Fang Qingye also saw his uncle. As the head of the Finance Bureau, he also had to attend such a meeting. Seeing his nephew appear in the meeting room, Fang Jianhua also showed a look of surprise on his face, but he was a little far away and couldn't come over to ask directly.

They just nodded to each other as a greeting.

The symposium was held in the form of a round table meeting, but of course it was not arranged in a circle, but in a rectangle.

There is another row on the side and at the back, where less important people usually sit, such as ordinary workers from the investment promotion office.

Fang Qingye found his own table and sat down, next to him were the heads of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and the Agricultural Bank of China.

Not long after everyone sat down, County Magistrate Hu came in with several unfamiliar middle-aged men and sat in the center seat.

Seeing the nameplate on the table, Fang Qingye knew that BYD's boss Wang Chuanfu was not there, and the leader this time was a middle-aged man named Lu Xiangyang.

Fang Qingye didn't know him, and he didn't know much about the senior management of Biyadi.

But it doesn't matter, the information on the table has already provided detailed information about the representatives of Biyadi who came to Nanxin for inspection.

Lu Xiangyang is currently the vice chairman of BiYadi. He used to work at the Chaohu branch of the People's Bank of China. He co-founded BiYadi with Wang Chuanfu in 95 and is considered a veteran of BiYadi.

In fact, this kind of conversation was just a formality. After County Mayor Hu finished his introduction, the participants present spoke up and expressed their opinions.

Although everyone was allowed to speak freely, they actually read from the script in order, and when it was Fang Qingye's turn, he was no exception.

There's nothing new in the words, it's just that on behalf of Bank of China, it will provide high-quality financial services during BYD's future investment process.

After Fang Qingye finished speaking, County Magistrate Hu, who was sitting next to Lu Xiangyang, smiled and said to him, "Boss Lu, it was President Fang who suggested that you, BYD, invest in Nanxin."
