In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

"Governor Lin."

Zhao Ruilong knocked on the door and entered, appearing very obedient, with his hands crossed over his abdomen, bowing his head and bending over, his face full of smiles.

"Xiao Gao, bring Mr. Zhao a cup of good tea."

"Our General Manager Zhao is a well-known major taxpayer in Handong."

Lin Zhiyuan was resting on the sofa and didn't get up. He raised his hand to gesture for Zhao Ruilong to sit down, and then looked at the person standing at the door and gave a loud order.

Xiao Gao?

When Zhao Ruilong heard this name, his smile visibly froze for a moment. It was unclear whether he was thinking of Gao Yuliang or the Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Xiaofeng sisters.

"Mr. Zhao, what brings you here today? Are you facing any problems with your business, or do you need policy support?"

Lin Zhiyuan asked casually.

Zhao Ruilong's mind suddenly became a little confused. This feeling was like facing his elderly father, Zhao Lichun. No, the power and influence that Lin Zhiyuan had cultivated were even stronger.

He felt like he couldn't breathe.

"Yes...that's right, Governor Lin."

"Liu Xinjian was my father's secretary. He performed very well back then and was trusted by my father, so he recommended him to become the chairman of Handong Oil and Gas Group. But I never expected that he would betray my father's trust."

"My father feels sorry for the people of Handong, and I have made some money in business over the years. We have an old saying that what is taken from the people should be used for the people. So my father asked me to come and ask if there is anything I can do to help with the development of Handong."

Speaking of which...

Zhao Ruilong held up five fingers, his eyes filled with heartache and reluctance: "Huilong Group has prepared 5 billion this time."

50 million?

Lin Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow. The Zhao family is really rich!

He painstakingly encouraged the Standing Committee members to recover the land at the Standing Committee meeting, and the number of those with records was only this many.

Including the cost of the ticket.

The total amount of 55 billion yuan also reflects the Zhao family's urgency and unease.

No! That's not right!

I almost got tricked by that old fox Zhao Lichun.

What kind of business could enable Zhao Ruilong and his sister to raise 55 billion yuan in working capital in just over ten years? Isn't this a clear indication that Huilong Group has problems?

So, Zhao Ruilong, who came knocking on their door...

Lin Zhiyuan looked at Zhao Ruilong, who was pretending to be generous, and suddenly smiled.

"Governor Lin, do you think it's too little?"

"Governor Lin, this is truly the maximum amount that Huilong Group can offer at the moment."

But Zhao Ruilong was clearly wrong and quickly explained.

"No, I felt President Zhao's love for the people of Handong."

Lin Zhiyuan shook his head:

"Won't it affect Huilong Group's normal operations if we suddenly release 50 billion yuan in working capital? We absolutely cannot do something short-sighted like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. There are still thousands of employees in Handong who work and eat under Huilong Group."

"It will be a bit difficult, but it won't affect basic operations."

Zhao Ruilong said.

"Alright, on behalf of the provincial government and the people of Handong, I thank Mr. Zhao for his donation."

"I'll have the Finance Minister contact you about the donation later."

"Handong is poor. The people need to eat, and development can't stop. Mr. Zhao, could you expedite the process so that the donated funds can arrive as soon as possible?"

Upon hearing an affirmative answer.

Lin Zhiyuan immediately finalized all the decisions, leaving the other party no chance to back out.

what?

Zhao Ruilong was stunned.

I've donated such a large sum of money; your provincial government should at least hold some kind of donation press conference to let the people of Jingzhou and Handong know about the Zhao family's generosity and give the Zhao family a prestigious reputation!

Can't you just take out a bank account and make the payment?

What's the difference between this and throwing money into a latrine?

The surname is Lin.

How can you be so shameless!

"Um?"

Lin Zhiyuan, having received no response for a while, let out a nasal sound, "Is Mr. Zhao having difficulties?"

No! No!

Zhao Ruilong felt a chill in his groin.

He gave away a third of the Zhao family's assets, but received nothing in return. He felt like Zhao Xiaohui was going to knock out three of his legs in one fell swoop.

But what could he do besides nod?

They lost Zhao Lichun's protection.

He's just an ordinary spoiled rich kid.

"I've looked at Huilong Company's annual tax return. Mr. Zhao seems very interested in the real economy?"

"Our main businesses are real estate, cultural tourism, and import/export."

Lin Zhiyuan suddenly asked this question.

"yes!"

Zhao Ruilong, not understanding, continued to nod.

Are you interested in technology products, such as drones, smartphones, and smart devices?

Lin Zhiyuan continued to ask.

"You want me to transition into this direction?"

Zhao Ruilong's rusty brain finally started to work again.

If he still doesn't understand this, he's not worthy of being Zhao Lichun's son.

"I'm just giving an example."

Lin Zhiyuan nodded and then shook his head. "I think President Zhao understands that Huilong Group's development in real estate and import/export businesses will definitely not be as smooth as before."

"Why not look for new directions for development?"

"Handong has the most complete electronics industry supply chain in the country. Whether it is an assembly plant or a technology research and development company, it is a good choice."

"Mr. Zhao, don't think that the huge assets are a burden to you. Sometimes your employees and workers are also your supporters."

"alright!"

Lin Zhiyuan glanced at the time on his watch. "I have a meeting to attend later, so I'll stop here for today."

"Mr. Zhao, I won't keep you any longer."

Lin Zhiyuan spoke to see the guest off.

Zhao Ruilong dared not linger and walked out of the Handong Provincial Government in a daze. He only came to his senses when he heard the sound of cars driving on the road.

He plopped down in the car.

He then dialed the phone number of his second sister, Zhao Xiaohui.

"Second sister, I've met with Executive Director Lin."

The moment Zhao Ruilong connected, he immediately took credit.

Zhao Xiaohui on the phone was speechless. She had donated 5 million yuan and still couldn't meet with a single executive vice governor. She was about to kill someone.

"How so?"

Zhao Xiaohui asked.

"I explained the sincerity of the Zhao family, but Lin Zhiyuan only asked us to pay money and wouldn't even hold a donation ceremony."

"And he babbled on and on."

"They told me to get involved in some heavy asset manufacturing industry."

Lin Zhiyuan spoke each word clearly, but when put together, Zhao Ruilong couldn't understand it.

In this era of quick money.

Why would someone bother with heavy asset investments if they have nothing better to do? That's just stupid.

"Ruilong, tell me exactly what Lin Zhiyuan said."

The woman's voice on the phone changed to a deep, resonant male voice.

"Dad! Okay."

Zhao Ruilong immediately recounted the entire conversation in the office from beginning to end.

There was a long silence on the phone.

"Ruilong, Governor Lin's suggestion is excellent."

"Since you also own Longyin Electronics, why not use Longyin Electronics as a base to shift towards becoming an electronic intelligent manufacturing company? As for the specific projects, you should think about them carefully, or you can ask Executive Director Lin."

"That's it, I'm hanging up."
