The sale of counterfeit and shoddy products in Rongda Mall made the headlines in the local Chengdu newspaper early the next morning.
But at this time, Chu Tianyao had no time to care about this matter, but was busy attending the investment meeting organized by the Provincial Government Department.
The selected companies come from various major industries and are highly competitive.
Among other things, the competitors that Chu Tianyao learned about include large wine companies such as Lucheng Laojiao, Wuliangye, and Jiannanchun.
In addition, there are many beer companies. Lanjian and Shancheng, as well as Mianshi's Asia Pacific Beer are all on the shortlist.
Not to mention large enterprises in other industries.
Just seeing the companies on these lists made Chu Tianyao feel stressed and at the same time couldn't help but feel a little excited.
This is enough to show that the support policy issued by the Provincial Government Department this time is absolutely unprecedented. Otherwise, how could these wine companies, which are not short of money, work hard to be selected.
In the office building of China Merchants Group.
The banner for the investment meeting had already been hung up, but it didn't look like a meeting as expected. All the business representatives at the venue seemed to ignore each other.
Everyone is waiting in the lobby, and the relevant staff will lead them to the conference room for an interview.
At this time, just before the meeting started, in the conference room.
"Mr. Cai, why are you here too?"
Zhang Tongwei and the leadership team of China Merchants Bureau had just sat down when they saw an old man wearing a Chinese tunic suit walking in. He immediately stood up to greet him.
"You are busy with your business, leave me alone, I am just here to join in the fun on behalf of the CPPCC."
The old man in Chinese tunic suit waved his hand, but Zhang Tongwei and others on the side did not dare to neglect and quickly invited the old man to take a seat.
"Although Mr. Cai has taken a back seat, he is also concerned about our work. It just so happens that this investment fair is our first time in Chengdu. Could you please give us some guidance?"
Zhang Tongwei, who was wearing black casual clothes, also smiled at the old man sitting down.
It can be seen that the old man's status is indeed not low.
"Okay, now it's all about the new era and new ideas. It's up to you young people to decide what to do. I heard that you, Secretary Zhang, put in a lot of effort to lead the investment conference this time."
The old man glanced at Zhang Tongwei, who smiled and waved his hand.
"But they are all within my own responsibilities. Now that the higher authorities are advocating a market economy and encouraging private enterprises, I am just climbing along the lines and following the policies."
After Zhang Tongwei finished speaking, he nodded to the director of the investment promotion bureau on the side, indicating that the investment promotion meeting could begin.
…
Not long after, in the office building of China Merchants Group.
One by one, business representatives were called into the conference room to talk.
Those who were not called waited in the hall.
"Brother, seeing that you are not very old, which company do you represent?"
A man in his early thirties wrapped himself in a windbreaker, looked at Chu Tianyao sitting next to him, and asked curiously.
"It's just a brewery. I guess it won't work this time."
Chu Tianyao smiled and said, then asked the man: "I don't know what I call you? He must be in a big company."
Hearing Chu Tianyao's words, the man said with some pride, "Just call me David. I am mainly engaged in business. I have companies in Shekou and Chengdu."
With that said, the man took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Chu Tianyao.
"Yu Dawei, general manager of David Trading Co., Ltd...."
Chu Tianyao looked at the name on the business card, but the corner of his mouth curled up.
Shekou is a place Chu Tianyao is not familiar with. It is now the most famous industrial zone in the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. Many people go south to do business, and the first choice is Shekou Industrial Zone.
However, in Chu Tianyao's opinion, the trading company David mentioned was full of water.
To put it nicely, the other party is engaged in trade, but to put it harshly, this guy is probably a big bad guy.
In the 1990s, there were many people who made their fortune by moving goods between the two places. A certain real estate tycoon named Wang at that time also made his fortune through this, and the man in front of me, David, might be one of them.
"Our company sells everything. Brother, if you have any products you want to sell to the South, I'm the right one to contact you."
Seeing Chu Tianyao's meaningful smile, David Yu grinned and stretched out his hand to Chu Tianyao.
"I don't have the habit of carrying business cards, but it makes me laugh." Chu Tianyao accepted the business card, then stretched out his hand to hold it, and said with a smile:
"My name is Chu Tianyao. Maybe we can really cooperate in the future."
David Yu didn't pay much attention to Chu Tianyao's words. In his opinion, at Chu Tianyao's age, he didn't look like a business owner. At best, he was a sent business representative.
Smiling when meeting everyone is just David's habit. It is precisely because of his cheeky diplomatic spirit that he can build his own trading company step by step.
"Next, Chu Tianyao from Xingyao Winery!"
While David was chatting with Chu Tianyao, a clerk from the Investment Promotion Bureau in work clothes came out and shouted into the hall.
"I'm here!"
Hearing his name, Chu Tianyao quickly stood up and followed him towards the conference room.
And right behind Chu Tianyao.
When David Yu looked at Chu Tianyao's leaving figure, his whole body suddenly became excited.
"Chu Tianyao... Xingyao Winery, it took a long time to do it, it turned out to be him!"
David Yu slapped his forehead suddenly, feeling secretly regretful about not seizing the opportunity just now.
He didn't remember the name Chu Tianyao for a while, but he had heard a lot about the name of Xingyao Winery recently.
With only one health beer, he entered the beer market in Sichuan Province and became famous in just two months. Even though Chu Tianyao himself kept a low profile, his reputation gradually spread in the business circles of Sichuan Province.
David Yu is a native of Chengdu, so how could he not have heard of this controversial beer company.
"How stupid, I missed such a person just now!"
Looking up, he saw that Chu Tianyao's figure had already entered the conference room. David Yu couldn't help but regret that he should have taken the opportunity to get closer to Chu Tianyao just now.
at the same time.
It was just when Chu Tianyao was attending the investment meeting.
Rongcheng, in an antique Chinese-style house.
Lu Qiuyu, who should have been at work, was now sitting at her grandpa's house, peeling grapes and listening to the phone.
"Girl, you are just an investment fair. Is it so important whether it succeeds or not?"
A well-dressed old woman sat in front of Lu Qiuyu, looking at her granddaughter with doting eyes.
"Tell grandma who this Chu Tianyao is and why my girl deserves to care about him so much again and again."
Hearing her grandmother's question, Lu Qiuyu couldn't help but panic, and quickly explained: "I don't care about this guy. He is as smelly and hard as the stones in the pit."
Seeing Lu Qiuyu acting like this, the old woman pursed her lips and smiled, naturally she saw something.
