When Li Guangyu arrived at Li Guanghui's dormitory, the Pengcheng City Committee was holding an enlarged meeting of the Municipal Committee in the Municipal Committee Conference Room.
Zhang Aihua, a senior official of the city, said: "Today is a major victory for our city. The two companies of Pengyu Group have been put into operation, making our special zone the first foreign-funded enterprise to start operations. This time Pengyu Group has recruited more than 9,000 employees.
This will be a huge boost to the families of these employees and our city’s economy.”
"This shows that we are right to establish the special zone. We must unswervingly implement the decisions of the central and provincial committees and establish the special zone as a national pilot and a benchmark that can be promoted nationwide."
Later, Mayor Jia Dezhong also spoke: "Our government must serve the development of foreign-funded enterprises in the special zone and strive for early landing and early production of foreign-funded enterprises. In particular, our comrades in charge of the work of the special zone must communicate more with foreign businessmen and serve their enterprises well.
development within our special zone.”
Li Tingwei said: "Secretary Zhang and Mayor Jia please rest assured that we will definitely serve the enterprises entering the special zone well, and at the same time, we will strive to introduce more companies to our special zone to build factories in Xiangjiang."
Today, Li Tingwei's position in Pengcheng has been promoted and he has become a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. His main job now is to be responsible for the development of the special zone.
Li Tingwei proposed to those present: "Today, our special zone still has many facilities that are not perfect. We don't even have a better hotel. Every time businessmen come over, they have to stay in our guest house, which is very inconvenient. We all know that the Flower City is under construction.
The White Swan Hotel, can we also follow that model and build a high-end hotel in the special zone? This will be of great benefit to the development of our special zone."
Regarding Li Tingwei's suggestion, Zhang Aihua agreed with Li Tingwei's opinion considering that Pengcheng did not have a hotel that could afford to welcome businessmen from all over the world.
Zhang Aihua said: "I will report this matter to the Provincial Party Committee tomorrow. I think the Provincial Party Committee will support our proposal. As for the introduction of external funds to build the hotel, Ting Wei needs to pay more attention."
Li Tingwei said: "Secretary Zhang, Li Guangyu is still in Pengcheng. I will visit him tomorrow morning to see if he has such a wish."
When Li Tingwei was thinking about this plan, he had already thought of who to invest in. He was very clear about Li Guangyu's strength. Any one of Li Guangyu's several groups could build a hotel with just one month's profit.
, as long as Li Guangyu is willing to invest, there will be no problem with the construction of this hotel.
Zhang Aihua naturally understood that Li Tingwei was placing his hopes on Li Guangyu, and he said: "Comrade Tingwei, when you go to visit, you must comply with Mr. Li Guangyu's wishes. If Mr. Li Guangyu has no intention of building a hotel, you can
Don’t talk too much about this matter with Mr. Li Guangyu, and don’t give him the idea that we, Pengcheng, require him to invest in a hotel. This will make Mr. Li have a bad view of our government.”
"Secretary Zhang, don't worry, I know what to do and will never leave a bad impression on Li Sheng." Li Tingwei said.
…
The next morning, when Li Guangyu was visiting the construction site of Pengyu Building, Zhang Ziyu came to Li Guangyu and reported: "Li Sheng, Vice Mayor Li Tingwei just came to Pengyu Group and hopes to meet with you."
After listening to the report, Li Guangyu and Zhang Ziyu rushed back to the Pengyu Group office building.
When they came to the office, Zhou Zhigang was chatting with Li Tingwei about some situations of the group.
Li Guangyu said: "Deputy Mayor Li, you should notify me in advance if you are coming, so that I can welcome you at the company."
Li Tingwei said: "Mr. Li, you are too polite. How could I let you greet me in person? I hope I didn't disturb you when I came here this time."
"How could it be? Our group welcomes Vice Mayor Li to be our frequent guest." Li Guangyu said.
After exchanging polite words, Li Guangyu said: "Deputy Mayor Li, why did you come here today?"
Li Guangyu did not believe that this person would come to the group to visit him for no reason. You must know that Li Tingwei has a lot of work nowadays, and he needs to take the lead in handling all the affairs of the SAR.
Li Tingwei did not immediately ask Li Guangyu if he was willing to build a hotel in the special zone, which was too abrupt.
Li Tingwei said: "Mr. Li, I wonder if you know anything about the White Swan Hotel under construction in Huacheng."
Li Guangyu naturally knew the situation of this hotel. In 1978, some big names such as Xiangjiang Huo Yingdong, Charter King, Li Ka-shing, etc. went to Beijing to be received by the mainland's upper-level leaders. At the same time, they determined to build hotels in Beijing, Magic City, Jinling and Huacheng.
There are eight joint venture hotels. Li Guangyu has known this news for a long time in Xiangjiang.
Li Guangyu said: "I still know something about this matter. Mr. Fok Yingdong invested 50 million Hong Kong dollars in the construction of the hotel."
Li Tingwei said: "Today, Pengcheng is at the forefront of reform and opening up, and with the continuous development of our special zone, there is still a certain gap in these aspects. Mr. Li, I wonder if you have any ideas about investing in a hotel?"
Li Guangyu's previous plan to build a hotel in mainland China was not in the past few years. He was planning to enter the hotel industry after making a fortune in the Japanese stock market in 1989. At that time, his capital was strong enough and he directly acquired land to build a hotel.
Hotels, in this way, hotel operations make money, and the market value of hotels will become higher and higher depending on the soaring housing prices in mainland China in the future.
However, since Li Tingwei proposed it, Li Guangyu thought for a moment that it would be good to build a hotel in Pengcheng Special Economic Zone, so that he could cultivate talents for Li Guangyu to build hotels in the mainland in the future.
Li Guangyu said: "Vice Mayor Li, regarding the issue of building a hotel in Pengcheng Special Economic Zone, I am willing. I will leave the specific issues in this regard to Mr. Zhou Zhigang to communicate with you."
Li Tingwei said happily: "Mr. Li, thank you for your support to our Pengcheng. We will discuss the hotel construction issues in detail with Mr. Zhou Zhigang next. If Mr. Li has any opinions, you can always put them forward to us."
After Li Guangyu sent Li Tingwei away, he said to Zhou Zhigang: "When you are negotiating with Pengcheng, don't worry too much about the gains and losses. This is also the first time that the Li Group has entered the hotel industry. We will treat it as supporting Pengcheng."
Construction, and cultivating talents for our future development.”
Zhou Zhigang said: "Li Sheng, in this regard, could you please recruit a talent who has specialized in hotel management in Xiangjiang? I am not very clear about the specific problems of the hotel."
Li Guangyu never thought about asking Zhou Zhigang to manage the affairs of the hotel. Now he just asks Zhou Zhigang to discuss investment with the government. After the hotel is established, Li Guangyu will naturally send professionals to manage it. Zhou Zhigang should develop Pengyu Group well.
of business.
Li Guangyu said: "Zhigang, you only need to discuss the hotel construction with the Pengcheng City Government now. As for future management, I will naturally arrange for personnel to come over."
"Li Sheng, I understand. I will report the negotiation status of the hotel construction to the headquarters at any time." Zhou Zhigang said.
Li Guangyu then told Zhou Zhigang about Li Guanghui's request for leave to go home and bring some people from his hometown to work, and asked Zhou Zhigang to arrange the work of these people.
