I used to be so conservative when it came to personnel issues. Even if I did something special, it was just the result of being forced to do it.
Now, I feel that all my pressure still comes from the trust that Secretary Fang and Governor Wang have in me, and not entirely because I really have a high level of consciousness.
Nowadays, I have a deeper understanding of the saying "A scholar will die for a confidant."
In fact, each of us is deeply affected by the naive mentality of youth. When we are still students, a word of encouragement from the teacher will give a poor student the motivation to become a good student. When a person participates in
After we get a job, even if we have a very high position, the recognition and encouragement from our leaders will still play a big role in us.
Therefore, I have always believed that encouragement is more important to a person's progress than criticism.
I do the same with my own children. Since my children became sensible, I have rarely criticized them, and I have mostly encouraged them. And I have also found that children grow faster in this way.
I looked at the time and said, "Director Chen, we have to leave right away. There is a severe traffic jam in Beijing, and it will be bad if we are late."
He nodded and asked me: "Has the car been arranged?"
I smiled and told him: "It's ready. The car arranged by the Beijing Office."
He immediately laughed and said, "Mayor Feng, your treatment at the Beijing Office is almost the same as that of a provincial leader. It's great to have a former subordinate here."
I laughed, "That's true."
But he didn't know that I felt even more guilty at this time. In my heart, what I'm most afraid of now is the mention of Su Wen, but in a place like this, Su Wen will always be someone I can't avoid.
Su Wen still arranged the Mercedes-Benz car for us, but she did not show up. When we got downstairs, the car was already parked at the door.
Fortunately, we set off early and arrived at the hotel where Chairman Plenary was treating guests, ten minutes earlier than the time we agreed with him.
We didn't drink much in the evening. We mainly talked about some details of the highway project and the land.
However, Chairman Plenum proposed 100 acres, and his reasons were quite reasonable. He said: "If it is 50 acres, the possibility of building a high-end community is simply not high. The greening part of the community must be fully considered. This is a high-end community."
It’s an issue that the community must consider.”
I said: "The problem is that the land we have released and the largest land parcel currently in the hands of our own company is only about 50 acres. If we want 100 acres, we have to release another piece of land from our land bank.
Moreover, bidding, auction and listing must be carried out. In that case, the land cost is estimated to increase a lot.
In fact, fifty acres of land can be used to build a good community. The key is that we can give you the cost price bid by our company, and you only need to pay more land transfer tax. For now, this
You can’t get the price at all. As long as we release a piece of land, many real estate companies will definitely raise the price and grab it.”
He said: "Fifty acres is indeed too small, and it is not cost-effective from an investment perspective. Mayor Feng, if you really want me to invest in your highway, this hundred acres of land
It must be included in this project, and I can only accept your current land price."
I thought to myself: He is just trying to raise the price. You know, if we follow the conditions he just proposed, we will lose more than just money. As Director Chen reminded me, if we really
If we do that, we will definitely be scolded by mainland developers and ordinary people in the future.
Director Chen did not speak, because after all, this only involves our Dongjiang affairs. I said: "It is difficult for us to let go of this matter. President, please allow me to think about it for a while. Okay?"
Chairman Quan said: "Actually, if we consider this issue purely from a development perspective, it would take at least two hundred acres to create a truly decent community."
At this time, Director Chen spoke, "Chairman Plenary, as far as I know, there are many high-end communities in Hong Kong, but the land supply in Hong Kong should be tighter than ours, right? So, I think the construction of a community does not depend on the size of the land, but on the size of the land.
Planning and design. What do you think?”
The chairman of the plenary committee was embarrassed for a moment, and then he spread his hands and said, "Hong Kong can't help it, after all, the territory is too small. It's different in the mainland. People in the mainland will consider the environment of the community more. As far as Hong Kong is concerned, the whole of Hong Kong is the best
environment. Director Chen, are what I said correct?"
His words were indeed a bit unreasonable, but I received a bad message from his previous words: maybe he will go even further.
Only then did I realize that I had made a mistake in front of this person from the beginning: we took the highway project too seriously, which made him use it as a bargaining chip to blackmail us.
After thinking for a while, I said: "President, we will talk about this project here for now, and we will communicate further when it comes down. To be honest, my powers as mayor and director of the management committee of the industrial park are also very limited.
There are some things that I cannot make the decision on. Therefore, I have to go back and consult the relevant leaders before discussing this matter. However, I still hope that both of us can consider each other's difficulties, so that our cooperation will be more conducive. Chairman Plenary,
Do you think so?"
He didn't say anything more, but he still had no intention of letting go.
Although we had eaten the meal, we didn't get anything real. On the way back, Director Chen sighed and said to me: "This thing seems impossible. The appetite of this plenary president is too big. He
What I want is not one hundred acres, but more than two hundred acres. Mayor Feng, can you accept this condition? Two hundred acres, if you earn less than 500,000 from one acre of land, two hundred acres is one
Billions."
I nodded, "This chairman of the plenary committee is very powerful. Others first put forward very high demands, and then slowly lowered the conditions. But he did the opposite. Obviously, he saw that we paid too much attention to the highway project.
, so we used this as a condition to blackmail us."
He said: "Yes. Mayor Feng, we made a fundamental mistake this time, that is, we exposed our main purpose prematurely. These Hong Kong people are very smart, and their business awareness is particularly strong.
, we can understand at a glance the importance of highways to our industrial park.” (To be continued)
