"Brother Zhou, you said they were on guard against you. Why? Didn't I introduce you just now? You are from China. They should understand that the actions of you and Director Kong represent the country." Peng Xinyan said with a serious look on her face.
Puzzled.
"Xinyan, what you said is a bit exaggerated. How can Lao Kong and I be said to represent the country? We can only be regarded as representing our departments, no matter how hard we stand."
Peng Xinyan didn't care what she said, but Director Zhou didn't dare to do so. Now that they were outside the mainland, they had to pay special attention to their words and deeds, otherwise they might make mistakes.
"Director Zhou, what did Sun Dahai do to prevent us? We have no direct relationship with him and cannot affect the development of his company at all." Deputy Director Kong didn't know why.
Director Zhou knew this very well, but this topic was really not something that could be discussed in the car. He could only sigh and said, "I'll call Mr. Huang for instructions when I get back. It seems that if Mr. Huang doesn't
Give us a line and we won't get any useful help from Sun Dahai."
Deputy Director Kong was a little unconvinced. He said: "Director Zhou, do we have to be so polite to a child? I think we might as well reveal our identity and clearly ask him to assist us in our work. Can he still object?"
After hearing this, Peng Xinyan felt relieved, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed unfair to Sun Dahai. She looked at Director Zhou with some worry.
"Lao Kong, what kind of unit are we? What are our job responsibilities and authorities? What rights do we have to ask Sun Dahai to provide us with help?" Director Zhou was a little unhappy.
Sun Dahai is now fourteen or fifteen years old, which is when his rebellious mentality is strongest. Children of this age may run away from home if their family members speak harshly. I have no jurisdiction over Sun Dahai at all, so why force me to do so?
Do people have to help themselves?
Besides, it's not like Sun Dahai has no one behind him. Not to mention Huang Lao's relationship, he is not someone who can be manipulated by his family alone.
What's more, he has had several substantial contacts with the semi-retired chief. The Sun family's business has developed so rapidly and has blossomed all over the country. Director Zhou will not believe it if there is no powerful person behind him to help say hello.
Through the relationship between Huang and Lao, Sun Dahai and Director Zhou are quite close. He is so young and has extraordinary strength. How stupid Director Zhou must be to accept Deputy Director Kong's proposal without pushing a friend with great potential to the opposite side.
go?
This old Kong is used to being one-note in a small place. Now that he is working in the central government, he still has the same style, but it is too easy to get into trouble. It seems that he is really not a good partner.
Deputy Director Kong did not expect that the suggestion he gave casually would make Director Zhou have opinions about him, which ultimately led to him not being able to stay in this department. I wonder if he would regret it.
The department where Director Zhou and Deputy Director Kong currently work is a temporary department under the State Council, which is mainly responsible for supervising and managing foreign investments and acquisitions by state-owned enterprises.
This department now seems inconspicuous, and its administrative level is not high. It is just a department-level unit, but its power will be considerable in the future.
According to the historical development trajectory, this department will be placed under the newly established State-owned Assets Administration next year.
As a temporary department, department members are all transferred from other units, mainly from the People's Bank of China, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and the Planning Commission.
They came to Xiangjiang this time because of the stock market crash.
After the joint announcement was issued in 1984, the government secretly began to prepare for a smooth political and economic transition in Hong Kong.
As far as the Hong Kong economy is concerned, the government has retained a large part of the precious foreign exchange here in order to stabilize the Hong Kong economy.
It is precisely because of this that when those divestment groups in Xiangjiang sold off their assets and sold their shares in the secondary market in an attempt to divest from the market, Chinese capital took the opportunity to enter.
After several years of development, funds with Chinese capital or Chinese capital background currently account for more than 5% of the Hong Kong stock market, and have become a force that cannot be ignored.
This stock market crash was not so sudden as it was that investors were too careless. They ignored many danger signals and were naturally punished as a result.
This stock market crash is actually a good thing for Chinese investors who are preparing to support themselves for the long term. At this time, they can enter the market at low prices, the cost is much lower than normal, and they will not be hostile to major shareholders and market makers.
.
Director Zhou and others came to Xiangjiang in person to find a suitable opportunity for Chinese capital to enter the market safely, which is considered a heavy responsibility.
There is no stock market in China, and it is still dominated by a planned economy. There are too few people with relevant practical experience. There are some experts who study financial theory, but it is no problem to ask them to point out the general direction. When it comes to specific operations, no one knows how to do it.
Listen to their opinions.
In view of this, the opinions of the superior leaders are also to ask Director Zhou and others to find patriotic financial people in Xiangjiang, fully listen to their opinions, and choose a reasonable time to enter the market.
Just at this time, Peng Xinyan, who grew up in the same compound as Director Zhou, was to be transferred to work in Xiangjiang, so they came to Xiangjiang together.
As mentioned earlier, the Xinhua News Agency’s Xiangjiang Branch is equivalent to the government’s quasi-official agency in Hong Kong. Director Zhou and the others are serious government agencies, so they will naturally accept assistance from the Xiangjiang Branch when they arrive in Hong Kong. So Peng Xinyan, who had just completed the entry procedures, accompanied
They came to the Future Building together.
Director Zhou was transferred from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. Before coming to Xiangjiang, he already knew a lot about Sun Dahai's situation.
Although he only dealt with Shiweitian in China, when Jiahua Investment Company invested in Daqingshan, he was still working at the State Administration of Foreign Exchange.
The large-scale project with an investment of nearly 100 million US dollars was actually not an industrial project, but an investment in agriculture. Even when people from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange were chatting, they felt that Jiahua’s investment was very risky.
However, as the project slowly started to develop, Jiahua Investment Company did not seem to be under much economic pressure at all. On the contrary, they opened a new project in the island city, this time with an investment of less than US$100 million.
At this time, Director Zhou had been transferred to his current unit and was no longer in charge of the entry of foreign capital, but he could still easily obtain relevant information from his colleagues in the original unit.
With the help of his current job's confidentiality level, Director Zhou found out that the actual boss behind Jiahua Investment Company turned out to be Sun Dahai.
Director Zhou was not unfamiliar with the name Sun Dahai. Every time his father attended a gathering of comrades, he would mention this name from time to time after returning.
Fortunately, Director Zhou is not in the same age group as Sun Dahai, otherwise Sun Dahai would become someone else's child, and the nightmare would accompany Director Zhou through his adolescence.
