The ceremony will be held in the morning of the next day, and Lin Chuan can also take advantage of the afternoon to walk around.
Compared with the commercial development of the Imperial Capital, the commercial development of Hui City is still too slow.
But Lin Chuan does not pursue or compare with this. After all, Hui City and Dan City have a combined population of only a few million, while the Imperial Capital has a population of tens of millions, and their purchasing power and ability to accept new things are also very good.
In contrast, people in Huishi are more conservative and have no active ideas. They just want to have enough food and have a stable job.
Passing by the library, Lin Chuan wanted to buy some good textbooks for his daughter.
While selecting, Lin Chuan suddenly noticed a familiar figure from behind, who looked like Harik.
Lin Chuan stepped forward and slapped him on the back. Harik, who was engrossed in reading, was startled.
When he looked back, he saw that it was Lin Chuan. Harry was suddenly nervous and his face was instantly filled with shame.
Lin Chuan was a little surprised by Harik's change.
The arrogant aura can no longer be seen on his body, but instead there is a sense of humility and helplessness.
"What a coincidence, I can see you here!" Lin Chuan was as approachable as ever, as if he didn't care at all about Harik's betrayal.
On the contrary, it was Harrick who even smiled looked particularly unnatural.
"Yes, what a coincidence. Why are you coming to the Imperial Capital?"
"I'm here to sign a project and want to buy some textbooks for my daughter. Have you eaten? Let's find a place to have a drink!"
Facing Lin Chuan's invitation, Harik thought for a while and refused.
He felt shameless eating with Lin Chuan.
However, at Lin Chuan's repeated request, the two of them found a small restaurant nearby and talked about each other's experiences during this period while drinking.
Harry smiled helplessly: "Your business is getting bigger and bigger, but I didn't seize the opportunity to conquer the world with you. At the beginning, I pursued my dream wholeheartedly, but I became a tool for others to use.
When I came to the Imperial Capital, I slowly realized that your original idea was actually correct. No one was willing to invest in the development of agricultural machinery because it had no market value.
The machinery manufacturing factories here are more willing to produce things that can be accepted by the people, but they are also unwilling to provide R&D funds, and they don't even have a decent R&D room.
And the people here don’t accept me, who comes from the Western Regions, at all. In their view, we are more like savages who have just learned to eat with chopsticks, and have no idea what civilization is.
All in all, it’s hard to describe!”
Lin Chuan didn't feel any happiness in his heart, or he felt happy to see Harik like this.
He also sighed and said slowly with sympathetic eyes: "In business or capital development, everyone has their own role. The role of employees is production and research and development.
The role of the boss is to control the overall situation and the development of the market, so different types of work and professions have evolved. Your biggest mistake is to doubt the boss's strategy, which will make you take that wrong step.
If you had thought about it carefully and calmly at that time, you would have known that our agricultural development for thousands of years has always been based on those tools. It is not impossible to change this pattern, but the time has not yet come.
It’s good that you can think of this now, and it will be beneficial to your future development!”
Harik felt the same way, and he also had the idea of going back to continue having sex with Lin Chuan.
But he couldn't let go and said it directly.
Then he said in a roundabout way: "Kawako, do you have a new R&D team now?"
Lin Chuan understood what he meant, but he also felt a sense of loneliness and sadness in his heart.
It is impossible for him to re-enable Harik. He can forgive anything but betrayal.
The loss caused to him by Harrick's departure will be unforgettable in his life.
Therefore, Lin Chuan still smiled reluctantly and said: "There is already a group of expert R&D teams. After all, my business still needs to be done, right?"
Harrick used drinking to cover up his inner helplessness, but it was as bitter and difficult to swallow as the alcohol.
He didn't want to continue to face Lin Chuan, so he stood up in a hurry and said: "Well, I have to go somewhere else. Thank you for inviting me to drink. I'll take my leave now!"
"Okay, then slow down and call me if you have any difficulties!"
Harry's nose suddenly became sore, and his eyes were moistened by the heat.
What he needs most now is to return to work at Mengying Company.
But this is no longer possible.
He left the restaurant in a hurry, and his thin figure was quickly swallowed up by the crowd.
Lin Chuan doesn't know where he will go?
But that's not something he should care about, because they were just former friends.
In the blink of an eye, on the morning of the next day, a grand project signing ceremony was held in the 2,000-square-meter press center of the Imperial Commercial Hotel.
Under the flashlights of TV and newspaper reporters, and witnessed by senior officials, Lin Chuan and Nong Xiangren signed a project cooperation agreement.
Nong Xiangren also announced that the Danmao Commercial Open Zone project was officially launched.
Later, Lin Chuan also held a press conference and answered a series of questions from reporters.
"Mr. Lin Chuan, how much will the investment in Danmao Commercial Open Zone be this time?"
In fact, Lin Chuan has never made a careful budget, because it is impossible to budget at all.
But Lin Chuan smiled calmly and said: "The initial investment is one billion, and we will continue to invest additional funds based on actual development needs!"
"The project announcement this time is developed by Mengying Group alone, and there are no restrictive terms. So will Mr. Lin cooperate with other companies for development?"
Lin Chuan followed with a smile and said: "I can't give a clear answer yet, but there will definitely be cooperation. This must be formulated based on actual needs!"
"So, what method does Mr. Lin have to solve the huge funds needed for development?"
This question made Lin Chuan laugh and said: "Can I accept this project without funds? Now the products of our Mengying Group have been exported to dozens of countries.
Moreover, our new products will gradually enter the domestic and foreign markets, and funds will continue to increase!"
The reporter then asked: "So Mr. Lin, what are your plans for the future development of Danmao District?"
"This is a relatively big deal. The initial plan covers chemicals, pharmaceuticals, industry, ports, etc. This aspect still needs to be adjusted and planned based on the actual situation.
Commercial retail, tourism, residence, etc. are all within the scope of the development plan!"
The press conference lasted for a full hour, and was followed by overwhelming reports from daily newspapers, evening newspapers, commercial newspapers, and radio and television stations.
The moment the news was broadcast, it completely shocked some people.
