High-level reception. Zhang Fan received a high-level reception in Pakistan Railway. This reception completely exceeded Zhang Fan's expectations. He did not expect that the top leader of Pakistan would receive him in person. This level of attention was unprecedented.
"Mr. Prime Minister, thank you for your hospitality. I am here on behalf of Longteng Group and on behalf of myself. The main purpose of my visit is to inspect your country's investment environment."
After going through all the reception procedures, Zhang Fan and the Prime Minister of Pakistan came to the conference room. Zhang Fan's proficiency in the Pakistani language also shocked the Prime Minister of Pakistan. He did not expect that Zhang Fan's language skills were so good.
The two of them did not need an interpreter at all. This feeling made the Prime Minister of Pakistan feel very comfortable.
"Mr. Zhang Fan, on behalf of Pakistan, I welcome you to invest. Our country and China are good brothers. If you come to invest in our country, we will definitely give you the greatest support."
The President of Pakistan smiled and said that Pakistan's economic development is not good, and what it needs most is investment. You must know that Pakistan's security situation is not optimistic, but there are strong enemies around it.
Therefore, military spending is relatively large. Without the support of a strong economy, it is not easy for them to buy good things. On the one hand, the economic development is not good, and on the other hand, they must maintain a strong armed force.
This contradiction has led to the poor economy of Pakistan. If Zhang Fan can bring some investment, Pakistan will naturally be very happy.
"Thank you. The reason why I came to your country in person is because I have great expectations for your country. Although your country's current economy is not very prosperous, I believe that your country's economy will get better and better. Your country and China
The friendship is obvious to all. I have a preliminary plan for this visit."
Zhang Fan said with a smile. The President of Pakistan became curious after hearing Zhang Fan's words.
"That's right. Our Longteng Group is now building a comprehensive large-scale shopping mall in the capital of your country. In the future, we will bring more Chinese products to this shopping mall. At the same time, we also want to build an industrial park according to the specifications.
I hope that in the future, we can bring more technologies to your country. At the same time, we will provide your country with more jobs and we will also reduce the cost of our products..."
Zhang Fan began to explain his plan to the Prime Minister of Pakistan in detail. Zhang Fan's initial plan was to first establish a foothold in Pakistan and build the Pakistani headquarters of Longteng Group in the capital of Pakistan.
At the same time, a large shopping mall is being built in the capital, which mainly sells Longteng Group's own products. This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the industrial park.
Zhang Fan hopes to build a large-scale industrial park in the capital of Brazil so that products can be gradually produced in Brazil. At the beginning, the focus will be on assembly, and eventually all components will be produced in Brazil.
Hearing Zhang Fan's words, the Prime Minister of Pakistan's eyes lit up. This time Longteng Group not only brought funds, but also technology. This is what Pakistan needs most.
Only by bringing funds and technology can Pakistan develop together. If an industrial park is well run, the benefits it will produce are very large.
At present, Pakistan's economy is mainly supported by agriculture and service industries. There are no pillar industries, let alone large technology companies.
"Mr. Zhang Fan, we welcome the investment of Longteng Group. By the way, Mr. Zhang Fan, I wonder if we can further cooperate. It's like a joint venture in your country. Your Longteng Group and our Pakistani state-owned enterprises will establish a joint venture together."
The Pakistani Prime Minister suggested asking. Zhang Fan was stunned by this question. Looking at the Pakistani Prime Minister, Zhang Fan started to think.
Establishing a joint venture has both advantages and disadvantages for Longteng Group. Zhang Fan is not afraid that the profits will be divided, but that the joint venture will encounter more obstacles in Pakistan in the future.
The poorer the place, the easier it is for corruption to occur. The same is true for Pakistan, where there are many things internally. If a joint venture is established, many things may become uncontrollable in the future.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Prime Minister, I haven't thought about the joint venture at the moment. Our Longteng Group has always been independent. Because our requirements are very high, so..."
Zhang Fan said with a smile, and the Prime Minister of Pakistan nodded.
"It's okay, it's okay. This is just a suggestion from me. We will still have opportunities to cooperate further in the future."
The Prime Minister of Pakistan smiled and said that the two continued to chat. Especially regarding cooperation, the two sides discussed in more detail.
This time Zhang Fan brought a lot of funds, a full 3 billion yuan. Converted to US dollars, it is more than 400 million US dollars. According to the current situation of Pakistan's absorption of foreign investment, Zhang Fan's investment accounts for more than half.
And this is just an initial investment. If the cooperation between the two parties is better in the future, the investment will further increase. You must know that Pakistan's position is still relatively good.
If the cooperation is successful, it can radiate to neighboring countries in the future. And Pakistan’s large population will also provide a large number of cheap labor, which will further reduce costs.
Based on the current wage level in Pakistan, their wages are much lower than wages in China. The wages of ordinary workers are considered a good wage when converted into RMB 1,000.
The current salary of ordinary workers in China is already considered low at 3,000 yuan a month. This is also the reason why many foreign-funded enterprises have moved away in China.
However, the places where foreign capital is relocating are Southeast Asia or India where the situation is relatively stable. And Zhang Fan chose Pakistan. Compared with those places, the situation in Pakistan that Zhang Fan chose may not be very safe.
However, the policies available are definitely much better than those of Southeast Asian countries. At the same time, the relationship between Brazil and China also determines that in the future, Longteng Group will not be hindered by those countries in Brazil.
An investment of 3 billion yuan is a big investment for Pakistan. What's more, Zhang Fan also promised to continue investing the profits earned in Pakistan.
Especially the Longteng self-operated village plan proposed by Zhang Fan made the Prime Minister of Pakistan very excited. Self-operated villages are to change people's livelihood. If this matter is done well, his support rate will definitely increase significantly.
E-commerce, mobile payment, instant messaging software, logistics and express delivery...
The Longteng Group has many projects to invest in. According to Zhang Fan, it is to build the Longteng system of Pakistan. If the construction of this system is successful, it will bring huge changes to the country of Pakistan.
Meetings, inspections, and meetings with some entrepreneurs in Pakistan. Zhang Fan made a lot of noise in Pakistan, and news about him continued to spread back to China.
This kind of news has once again raised Zhang Fan's status in the country. Now Zhang Fan is no longer a simple celebrity entrepreneur. Instead, he is on a boss-level mission.
Especially the investment in Pakistan, China is also very supportive. After all, this matter can greatly increase the relationship between the two countries, and this kind of thing must be supported.
