Chapter 165 Chief of Shanghai Municipal Government
As one of the most influential figures in the domestic business community, Li Yuhang is naturally the target of friendship and wooing by many big bosses.
In particular, Jianan Supermarket Group, one of the top ten domestic retail supermarket companies, is currently headquartered in a small southwest city, which is not in line with its development positioning in everyone's opinion. As the domestic financial center of Shanghai, its senior management naturally hopes that these well-known
Enterprises put their headquarters on their side.
Therefore, after the incident on July 14, Xu Di, the governor of Shanghai Municipal Government, and some unnecessary heads of government departments visited the East China regional headquarters of Jianan Supermarket Group for an inspection and held talks with the group's senior management.
Due to the retail summit, there are many business leaders in Shanghai these days. Li Yuhang did not expect that Xu Di would have a meeting with him within two days of the meeting.
You must know that Jianan Supermarket Group is a retail department store company, and it is destined to be unable to carry out too many layouts in the Shanghai stock market. Unlike many manufacturing industries, it has been able to create thousands or even tens of thousands of jobs.
Moreover, the layout of Jianan Supermarket Group in Shanghai has been perfected, and the possibility of increasing investment is very small. Even Jianan Supermarket Shopping Center is currently powerless. He really doesn’t know what his Jianan Supermarket Group has to offer.
The boss is worried about it.
In the conference room 201 of the East China headquarters of Jianan Supermarket, Li Yuhang, Gan Jiaming, Du Ningxue, Hu Lecheng, Dong Haiyan, Wang Xueqin and other group executives sat on both sides of the table with Xu Di and other Shanghai stock market executives.
The atmosphere of the talks was very good. After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Xu Di, the governor of Shanghai Municipal Government, got down to the main topic of today's talks.
"Jianan Supermarket Group is already a large national enterprise with greater demand in all aspects. The location of its headquarters has a great influence on the future development of the company.
As the domestic financial center, Shanghai is much more helpful to enterprise development than other cities. We will provide land for headquarters construction, financing loans and other assistance. I wonder if Mr. Li is willing to move the headquarters of Jianan Supermarket Group to Shanghai.
?”
Li Yuhang had just guessed Xu Di's purpose of coming here, but he didn't expect it to be here. It seems that the development of Jianan Supermarket Group has attracted a lot of people's attention?
Especially since the Jianan Supermarket Group currently does not have its own headquarters building, losses from the relocation of the headquarters will be minimal during this period.
The Shanghai Municipal Government is also quite sincere. You must know that land in Shanghai is very expensive now, so since it is willing to provide help on the land for the construction of its headquarters.
The basic meaning of the words is that as long as Jianan Supermarket Group is willing to move its headquarters to Shanghai, the government will basically give away the land for the headquarters construction for free, and the government is also willing to provide financing and loans for Jianan Supermarket Group to build the headquarters.
If you are an ordinary person, you will probably agree without thinking about it. This is the Shanghai Stock Exchange, the domestic financial center, the most prosperous economy, and there are so many preferential policies.
It's a pity that Li Yuhang still has persistence in his heart. He will not move the headquarters of Jianan Supermarket Group to Shanghai. Guocheng is his roots. Even if there are no advantages compared with many big cities, he is willing to stay.
There.
Jianan Supermarket Group does lack elites? But it is not a high-tech company? The demand for talents is not too great, and the reliance on the local talent environment at the headquarters is not that great? He is sure to lead this retail giant to cut through the waves in Guocheng.
Is there an IKEA convenience store in Shanghai? There are two major corporate headquarters of Hudong Investment Company. In the future, there will be the headquarters of Xunzhi.com under the Jianan Group? This is almost enough. The domestic focus of the Jianan Group is mainly in Guocheng, Yuzhou, and Rongcheng.
Although it is inland? Although Guocheng is just an unknown small town, Li Yuhang will not choose to leave because of this. Many century-old corporate headquarters in the world are in small towns, and Jianan Supermarket Group can do the same.
Therefore, he said: "Thank you very much, Chief Xu and the municipal government for their attention and support to Jianan Supermarket Group. Is it just hard to leave your hometown? Jianan Supermarket Group started in Guocheng, and I also grew up in Guocheng, where is Jianan
The supermarket group and my roots, as long as I control the Jianan Supermarket Group, the headquarters will always be in Guocheng."
This rejection can be said to be quite direct. It was not tactful at all, but Xu Di didn't mind it. He could feel the feelings of the young man next to him towards his hometown.
He does not mind that his family is poor. This influential figure in the business world is not just profit-seeking like many businessmen. In pursuit of maximizing profits, Li Yuhang allowed him to see the passion and sentiments of young people.
The differences between Guocheng and Shanghai in all aspects are clear to anyone with a little bit of intelligence? But this young man’s inner feelings for his hometown in the future? Will he give up these many benefits? Let’s stick to a small city in the west.
This seems stupid to many people. It is a waste of time for the rapid development of Jianan Supermarket Group, and it is also reducing the comprehensive competitiveness of Jianan Supermarket Group.
But Li Yuhang did just that. Faced with the temptation of various preferential conditions he offered, the young man refused without any hesitation, and told him bluntly that as long as this young man still controls the Jianan Supermarket Group,
Then the headquarters will be in Guocheng.
In Xu Di's view, this is quite commendable. The domestic business community is full of utilitarianism. Many businessmen can't wait to move their headquarters to provincial or central cities as soon as their companies grow big.
Although at work he welcomes these people to relocate so that the Shanghai stock market can develop faster, he personally doesn't like it too much.
There were many business leaders in Shanghai this time, but he only came to talk to Li Yuhang. He also wanted to meet this influential figure in the business world, a genius in the business world who was not as young as he was in his prime.
As a well-known company in Sichuan and Sichuan Province, its headquarters is not in Rongcheng or Yuzhou, but in an ordinary prefecture-level city in the west, which surprised him very much.
Now he understands the reason. Such a person is qualified to be called an entrepreneur. Xu Di believes that a person who has such affection for his hometown will definitely be a patriotic entrepreneur.
He smiled and said: "Guocheng is really blessed to have a talent like Mr. Li. I believe that Guocheng will achieve brilliant development in the future. We in Shanghai are willing to achieve more cooperation with Mr. Li's enterprises."
Li Yuhang also put aside his worries about this. His response just now was seen by some narrow-minded people as disrespectful.
You must know that there is a huge difference between Guocheng and Shanghai. Xu Di gave such a good policy, but he didn't even consider rejecting it in the exam. This was a bit disrespectful.
Fortunately, Xu Di's words did not show too much dissatisfaction, and it will not affect the development of Jianan Supermarket Group in the Shanghai stock market.
As for cooperation, he is now only the chairman and CEO of Jianan Supermarket Group. Naturally, he can only discuss cooperation on behalf of Jianan Supermarket Group on such an occasion. The Jianan Department is not included in this discussion. Even this Jianan Department is called internally.
Law.
To be honest, Li Yuhang has a bit of a headache now. He just refused to move the headquarters. If he doesn't cooperate with him now, it seems too disrespectful.
It's just that currently in Shanghai, Jianan Supermarket Group has really not made any big moves. Even if it opens one or two new branches, Li Yuhang really can't say that.
After thinking for a while, Li Yuhang said: "Shanghai has always been an area that our group attaches great importance to. It is also the East China headquarters of Jianan Supermarket Group and the East China Logistics Center. Our group is planning to build Jianan Building and Jianan Supermarket Shopping in Shanghai.
Center, a complex integrating Jianan Supermarket employee community.”
Xu Di was very happy when he heard this. This was at least a few hundred million projects. Although it was far from many foreign investments, it was still a big project.
It's a pity that he doesn't know that Li Yuhang is just painting a picture, and the plan is just a plan. Follow-up negotiations, land purchase design planning, etc. will not be completed in half a year.
In addition, Li Yuhang will also slowly delay the follow-up construction. He is very poor now. He will wait until he makes some extra money in 1997 before these projects can be advanced quickly.
This is not just about the Jianan Building in Shanghai, the Jianan Supermarket Building in Guocheng, and the Lingjiang Electrical Appliance Building in Yuzhou, etc., which will be rapidly promoted after capital is available in 1997. It is more practical to use the money now for corporate expansion.
