As reporters from various media gathered, and as the press conference time approached, there seemed to be a wireless cloud hanging over Luming City. Especially at the Xinyuan Hotel press conference site, the atmosphere gradually became tense. When they got up, all the reporters focused their attention on the press conference box. Everyone was guessing which city leader of Luming City would be attending the press conference today.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the time is up.
The small door behind the press box slowly opened, and a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties walked out from behind.
It’s Wang Jiangang, secretary-general of the Luming Municipal Government.
Everyone was shocked to see that it was Wang Jiangang, because according to many media speculations, the people attending this press conference should be at least members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee of Luming City. However, no one expected that Only one secretary-general of the municipal government came.
Wang Jiangang stood at the press conference, glanced at the reporters in the audience, coughed slightly, and said loudly: "Dear friends from the domestic and foreign news media, hello everyone, our Luming City is holding this press conference today. The meeting was mainly to answer some questions raised by the so-called coalition of protesters.
Let me introduce myself first. I am Wang Jiangang, secretary-general of the Luming Municipal Government. Here, I represent the Luming Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government at this press conference. Now, I would like to formally announce our Luming City’s response to this so-called protest. The Alliance’s response.”
Having said this, Wang Jiangang did not take out any documents to read, he just stood there and said loudly: "The answer from our Luming Municipal Party Committee and Government is,."
Having said this, Wang Jiangang lengthened his tone and did not announce the results all at once. Instead, he waited for a moment. After all the eyes and cameras in the venue were focused, Wang Jiangang continued: "We Lu Ming The attitude of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government is that they will never modify any terms in the bidding documents. Those who are willing to participate in this bidding negotiation meeting can stay and continue bidding. Those who are unwilling to participate in this bidding negotiation meeting are free to come and go. We Lu Ming The Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government will resolutely follow the procedures and organize this financing bidding meeting in accordance with the conditions stipulated in the bidding documents."
After saying this, Wang Jiangang's face suddenly changed, and he said in a serious tone: "Considering that the series of actions of the suddenly formed protester alliance have brought a lot of trouble to our Luming Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and are suspected of being illegal. Fair competition. In this regard, our Luming Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government decided after deliberation to take the following measures against the protestors’ alliance:
First, after our investigation, we found that the organizer of the protestors' alliance was Mr. Doyle, the head of Doyle Company. Therefore, we decided to disqualify Doyle Company from participating in the second-phase project financing bidding meeting and refund its bid deposit.
Second, all domestic and foreign companies that participate in the Protesters Alliance will be included in our city’s integrity file, and 5 integrity points will be deducted. At the same time, all companies participating in this Protesters Alliance will be included in the financing bidding if The score is the same as that of other companies. Considering that its integrity score is low and under the same or similar conditions, cooperation with other companies will be given priority.”
As soon as Wang Jian finished speaking, the whole scene went crazy. Reporters from various media outlets were whispering to each other, and many people took a deep breath.
No one expected that Luming City would be so strong and decisive this time, without any compromise, and directly cancel the bidding qualification of Doyle Company. You know, Doyle Company is also considered a big investment company in the world. , Luming City actually said that it would cancel its qualification level and cancel its qualification. This is too bold. You know, in other provinces and cities, many local leaders can’t wait to beg their grandfather and grandma to invite Doyle Company to invest. As for Luming City, it just pushes investors outside. This is too arrogant and awesome.
At this moment, Wang Jiangang did not care about what those reporters were talking about, but smiled at the reporters on the scene: "Okay, journalists, today's press release phase is over. Now I can answer your questions. There are 6 questions. If you want to ask, you can raise your hand."
When Wang Jiangang finished speaking, almost all the reporters below raised their hands. A quick look revealed that there were many arms below, including gorilla-like arms covered with black hair, and pink and tender arms. Her jade arms are as white as lotus roots, and her arms are thick and powerful with veins.
Wang Jiangang directly clicked on a blond foreigner who was relatively close to him and said: "Please ask this reporter to ask questions first."
Although this reporter looks blond and blue-eyed, his Mandarin is quite standard: "Hello, Secretary-General Wang, I am Joe Johnson, a reporter from CMN TV station in the United States. It is difficult for me to understand why these companies spontaneously organize together to safeguard their legitimate rights. , but your Luming City wants to disqualify Doyle Company from bidding and deduct points from all companies in your Luming City’s integrity files. Don’t you think that your Luming City’s actions are a little too overbearing and inconsistent with international standards? Is it customary?"
Wang Jiangang smiled: "Mr. Joe Johnson, this is not a question, but a series of questions, but as the first questioner, I will answer them all for you.
First, these companies are organized together with the intention of forcing our Luming City to compromise through a series of means, and even hold a press conference to force the palace. This behavior has seriously violated the relevant corporate integrity rules, and this behavior can even be regarded as It is a joint monopoly behavior with the intention of using its financial advantage to force our Luming City to make concessions. I believe that this kind of behavior would be subject to anti-monopoly investigation even in the United States.
Second, the disqualification of Doyle Company from bidding is because Mr. Doyle of Doyle Company is the organizer of this protest alliance. To use a Chinese saying, this is called shooting the first bird.
As for the way we in Luming City are too overbearing and inconsistent with international practices, I don’t think so. I think our Luming City has been quite benevolent. Our handling of the situation is completely in accordance with international practices. As far as I know, you It seems that the country often carries out anti-monopoly investigations on some industries in China. With all due respect, your anti-monopoly investigations are not conducted in accordance with international practices at all. They are only conducted in accordance with your so-called national rules or even under the pressure of some major companies. It is carried out under the pressure of large corporate groups, so why shouldn’t we do this.”
After speaking, Wang Jiangang smiled and said: "Okay, let the next reporter ask questions."
Later, Wang Jiangang clicked a domestic reporter with his hand.
The reporter immediately asked: "Secretary-General Wang, aren't you in Luming City worried that these investors will unite and refuse to participate in subsequent bidding? I clearly remember that the Protesters Alliance said a few days ago, If Luming City does not lift the restrictions, they will refuse to participate in the subsequent bidding."
Wang Jiangang smiled: "This journalist friend's question is very good. I can now solemnly state my position here on behalf of the Luming Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government of Luming City. Even if all the companies in the protestors' alliance refuse to participate in the next bidding, we Luming City's financing bidding will still be held as scheduled, and the conditions will never change. All domestic and foreign companies will be treated equally.
Oh, by the way, I revealed a piece of news at the scene, that is, just today, several well-known large investment companies at home and abroad received the bidding documents. I believe that even all companies in the Protesters Alliance will not participate in this bid. If we bid, we won't have any problems with financing. Some companies even said they would fully invest in the second phase of the project.
Of course, our Luming City, considering the risk issues and fairness issues, will definitely not allow this situation to occur. Otherwise, we do not need to hold this financing bidding at all. The reason why we hold the financing bidding is to provide more The opportunity for multiple companies to make money and develop in our Luming City is to ensure that the project is fair, just and open. Therefore, everyone said that our Luming City may file a lawsuit because of the pressure of some ambitious people who want to monopolize this project. Do they compromise?"
When Wang Jiangang finished answering this question, many reporters at the scene were dumbfounded, especially those who were paying attention to this press conference.
At this moment, in the presidential suite, after Doyle heard Wang Jiangang's announcement that Doyle's company was disqualified from bidding, he was so angry that he threw the tea cup in front of him to the floor, smashing it into pieces.
Doyle gritted his teeth and said: "It's too much. It's really too much. Why should our company be disqualified from bidding?"
After saying that, Doyle looked at Moyes angrily and said: "Moyes, didn't you swear to me that there would be no problems? Didn't you say that you have connections in Tianya Province? Why did Luming City cancel our company?" How do you want me to explain to the board of directors my qualifications for bidding?”
At this moment, although Moyes looked serious and even a little angry, in fact, he was already happy in his heart, because the reason why he asked Doyle to lead the organization was because he knew that as long as Luming City With the existence of a strong mayor like Liu Qingyu, as long as Liu Qingyu is still alive, it is absolutely impossible to compromise, and the leader will definitely be hit, and Doyle is just a strong opponent of their company when competing for a share of financing. .
As for what he said before about joining forces to share the share, it is simply a pie in the sky, and the chance of realizing it is very slim. Of course, if Luming City really compromises, he would not mind sharing this project with Doyle Company and other coalitions of protesters. , he can definitely advance and retreat freely with this move, killing two birds with one stone.
At this moment, after seeing this press conference, Yuto Mitsui showed a trace of satisfaction on his lips, nodded and said: "Well, this Moyes is very smart. Through
A coalition of protesters helped our Mitsui Group eliminate many powerful competitors, and this time the Kawei Island project is basically under the control of our Mitsui Group." This book was first published on 17K Novel Network, and you can read the original content first!
