My capital is quite large.

After listening, Zhang Qiang showed a look of gratified approval on his face and nodded slightly.

Then, he changed the subject, a meaningful smile flashing in his battle-hardened eyes, and looked at Li Feng, saying:

"However, while the film needs to be shot, I also need to catch up on the work I have on hand."

"Also... I took the TV series 'In the Name of the People' that you sent me back to my dorm a while ago and have already watched it all."

"The Handong Province in this story does indeed subtly allude to certain comrades in Jiangsu Province and Nanjing in terms of their work style and factional struggles."

At this point, Zhang Qiang paused slightly, his tone suddenly taking on a cold, authoritative edge:

"However, artistic embellishment is allowed in movies and TV series."

"Moreover, those comrades who have already become corrupt can no longer be called comrades from the day they reached out for their own money."

"You did a great job filming this; it serves as a wake-up call and is also to protect the majority of the remaining population."

Upon hearing Secretary Zhang's statement, which could be considered the final word, Li Feng, sitting opposite him, seemed quite perceptive.

On such sensitive topics involving high-level personnel and positions, he has always adopted the approach of "listening more and speaking less, and never interrupting."

"The secretary's insightful and to-the-point statement was truly remarkable. In fact, when this drama was first being prepared, Lao Han and his team were quite nervous, since the anti-corruption theme has always been a minefield in the industry."

"But the reason we still dare to film it is because we know that there are still many leaders in our province like Secretary Zhang who are upright, honest, and have a clear conscience."

"If every local official possessed your broad-mindedness in embracing all things and upholding the rule of law with an iron fist, what worries would we, as private enterprises focused on real industries, have in terms of development?"

After hearing these words, Zhang Qiang, despite knowing that Li Feng was flattering him, still found them very pleasing.

......

Seeing that the atmosphere had been set for a while, Li Feng smoothly steered the conversation to the core project of today's meeting:

"Secretary, I'm here today mainly to report to the province about our Haofeng Capital's plan to jointly establish Changxin Memory: YMTC chip project with the provincial investment and state-owned assets."

Upon hearing "Changxin Memory," Zhang Qiang frowned slightly and pondered for a moment:

"Li Feng, the province naturally supports the development of semiconductor manufacturing and flash memory wafers with open arms."

"But your plan... if I remember correctly, the storage project in the neighboring Anhui province is their top priority in their recent plans."

"Their first phase of construction has only just begun, and you're already planning a competing project in our province? Won't that...affect the unity between our neighboring provinces?"

Faced with Secretary Zhang's concerns about local protectionism and unity, Li Feng smiled rather nonchalantly:

"Secretary, our Southeast University has always advocated a market economy and free competition."

"In the trillion-dollar red ocean market of semiconductors and flash memory chips, which is almost monopolized by Samsung and Micron, the addition of a trailblazer increases the chances of success. How could that possibly affect unity?"

"Moreover, if you feel that it's unfair to the neighboring province in name only, I have a compromise that's not too bad."

Li Feng pointed to the map and said:

"We can build Changxin Memory's super wafer fab in Nanjing's Jiangbei New Area."

"Subsequently, with funding from Haofeng, together with the provincial and municipal governments, we took the initiative to help Wuhu, Ma'anshan and Chuzhou in the neighboring province to build a subway line directly connecting to Nanjing."

"Use transportation and industrial radiation to compensate for and drive their economic development, and help them integrate these three cities into our Nanjing metropolitan area."

"In this way, we can leverage Nanjing's locational advantages as the core of the region and promote common prosperity in the surrounding cities."

At this point, Li Feng joked:

"Otherwise, Nanjing is a provincial capital, but it has been ranked second in GDP year after year."

"If word gets out, it's not exactly a good look, is it?"

Nanjing's economy ranks second year after year.

This can be described as a long-standing, somewhat awkward, and unspoken pain point in the officialdom of Nanjing and even Jiangsu Province.

Upon hearing Li Feng's grand plan to build a subway, develop Jiangbei, win over three cities in the neighboring province, and strengthen the provincial capital, Zhang Qiang, who had been serious, fell into deep thought.

He stared at the planning sketch on the table, mentally calculating the feasibility of the plan.

By using a semiconductor project worth hundreds of billions of yuan, we can drive the full implementation of the Anhui-Beijing metropolitan area, while also naturally giving a big gift to the neighboring province and silencing their complaints.

It seems like it will work!

Zhang Qiang hesitated for a full two minutes before finally speaking slowly:

"What a wonderful free competition! What a great locational advantage!"

Zhang Qiang looked at Li Feng in front of him and burst into hearty laughter:

"Li Feng, you're a real talent. You truly live up to the praise your predecessor gave you back then."

"Don't worry, the province will not only approve Changxin Storage's project, but will also fully support it as a top-tier project of the highest standard in the province!"

......

The day after Li Feng reported to Zhang Qiang.

Less than a week after Haofeng Group officially announced the establishment of its HTH Business Group, Haofeng Group's parent company announced the establishment of its second directly affiliated department:

【Changxin Storage】!

This is also a first-level corporate department that is directly controlled and managed by the parent company and exists independently in terms of administrative structure.

Its factory and R&D base will all be located in the Jiangbei Development Zone of Nanjing.

The parent company of Haofeng Group, which had been quiet for several years and had hardly expanded any new business lines.

In just one month, they launched two brand new projects.

Following closely behind, the recruitment announcement posted on Haofeng Group's official platform shocked and astonished all science and engineering students across the country and even the entire Southeast University community.

Because Changxin Memory's recruitment of majors has almost swept across all STEM majors:

The core research and development areas include microelectronics, integrated circuit design, semiconductor devices, electronic science and technology, and electronic information engineering.

The majors include physics, optical engineering, mechanical design and manufacturing, materials science and engineering, and applied chemistry, which are related to basic and materials science.

Then there are the most popular interdisciplinary and software-related fields today: Computer Science and Technology, Control Science and Engineering, Automation, Artificial Intelligence, Communication Engineering, and Electrical Engineering and Automation.

What all the students found most irresistible was the generous compensation and benefits offered by Changxin Memory:

Starting salary for core positions for recent graduates: 45 RMB/year!

The initial talent gap: tens of thousands of job openings!

In addition, all new employees enjoy the maximum social insurance and housing fund benefits, high-value supplementary commercial insurance within the group, and extended paid annual leave.

In addition, there are free employee dormitories provided by Haofeng Group, and free shuttle buses covering all major routes in the city.
