Chapter 428: The second meeting with the president
Later, Li Jianhui also communicated with Gu Zhenfu and others on the establishment and development plans of Xinyan Cosmetics Company, Donghua Gas Company, and Donghua Water Company.
Compared with Donghua Petrochemical, the investment of these three companies is not large, so the few people did not discuss it much and directly let Hsinchu Bank be responsible for the establishment of these companies.
On the morning of the second day after arriving in Taipei, Li Jianhui, accompanied by Gu Zhenfu and Lin Tingsheng, went to President Chiang's office. This was also the first time Li Jianhui met President Chiang.
Compared with more than a year ago, this person has not changed much. He still looks very friendly and his eyes are still so deep.
This time, this person did not discuss the cross-strait situation with Li Jianhui, but was concerned about the planning of the Donghua Territory.
"Mr. Li, although there is freedom overseas, it is not the root of you and your industry after all. Moreover, the Donghua territory is isolated in the western Indian Ocean. In the end, it is just the meat of others.
I hope that Mr. Li will also put national interests first while developing his own industry. Only when our nation and country are prosperous can the interests of you and your industries be better guaranteed."
Li Jianhui couldn't figure out what President Jiang was thinking. He could only respond according to the meaning of his words:
"Please rest assured that I grew up in Xiangjiang. As a member of the Chinese people, I have always taken China as my foundation. While developing myself, I am also very happy to promote the development of national enterprises.
In order to strengthen the cooperation between our national enterprises, I also jointly established the Oriental Chinese Economic Cooperation Association with Mr. Li Guobao, Mr. Lei Juekun, Mr. Gu Zhenfu, Mr. Lin Tingsheng, etc. to strengthen internal cooperation and communication."
President Jiang is naturally very clear about this association, but the purpose of establishing this association is not what Li Jianhui said.
In President Jiang's view, the Donghua Association has gone beyond the scope of simple economic cooperation. Members of this association have tied everyone into a whole through cross-shareholding in its industries, forming a community of interests.
Through the huge chain of strength and interests behind it, it continues to seize the market and is invincible in the face of competitors.
Just take the Baodao TV, refrigerator, washing machine, and air conditioner markets, most of which are occupied by Jingyi Electrical Appliances and Datong Electrical Appliances.
In terms of real estate, Tung Wah Club’s subsidiaries account for half of Baodao’s real estate market.
Compared with Baodao real estate companies working alone, Tung Wah Hui's real estate companies are not only building residential communities, but also bank branches, supermarkets, cinemas, hotels, clothing, jewelry, electronics, home appliances and other specialty stores.
, allowing them to shop nearby, which also leads to the fact that even if the sales price of Tung Wah Club's properties is slightly higher than that of local real estate development properties, countless citizens still rush to buy them.
Moreover, the real estate development concept of Tung Wah Association is definitely the best in the world, especially Xinjian Real Estate, owned by Li Jianhui. In order to develop better, it even specially supports hospitals and schools, which was unimaginable in private real estate operators before.
The properties owned by Tung Wah Club no longer only sell houses, but also services. President Jiang feels that if he were an ordinary person, when buying a house, he would definitely give priority to properties owned by Tung Wah Club.
This is also the reason why President Chiang has not suppressed the large-scale expansion of real estate owned by the Tung Wah Association in the Baodao market.
Regarding the treatment of the Xin Jian Department and the Donghua Society, President Jiang has reached a consensus with Sun Yunxuan and others. Donghuahui companies are welcome to enter Baodao for development, but they will never let Donghuahui's hands get involved in politics.
Today, President Jiang specially invited Li Jianhui here. First, he wanted to understand some of Li Jianhui's thoughts. After all, the Donghua territory is too special, especially since this place is named after Donghua. Does this mean that the Donghua Association will be based on this?
You must know that whether it is Gu Zhenfu, Lin Tingsheng or Wang Yongqing on Baodao, they have a strong influence on Baodao's economy. Once these people transfer their enterprises and assets to Donghua Territory, it will have a huge impact on Baodao's economy.
blow.
Another purpose is to allow Li Jianhui to invest in Baodao with confidence. Although President Jiang does not want Li Jianhui to get involved in politics, he has no intention of suppressing the Xinjian Department or even the Donghuahui enterprises.
Although Sun Yunxuan is mainly responsible for the economic development of Baodao, President Jiang is still very aware that Baodao has developed rapidly in recent years, and the Xinjian Department and Donghuahui enterprises have made considerable contributions.
In particular, several major automobile groups have established production bases in Baodao, which not only created a large number of jobs for Baodao, but also promoted the development of Baodao's auto parts industry.
"There is an excellent business environment here. I personally have always regarded this place as one of the core markets of my industry. When investing in industries, I will give priority to this place.
This time I came here, firstly, to inspect the development of its industries, and secondly, to look for opportunities for cooperation.
In the past two days, I have also discussed with Taoyuan County Magistrate Xu, Mr. Gu and others, and the British Jaguar Group intends to build a Leyland truck production base and a Leyland bus production base in Taoyuan.
Hsinchu Bank joined hands with CEFC Holdings, Datong Holdings and others to invest HK$3 billion to establish Donghua Petrochemical Group, and Hsinchu Bank and Watsons jointly established a HK$200 million joint venture to establish Xinyan Cosmetics Company.
The commissioning of these projects will not only bring tens of thousands of jobs to Baodao, but also promote Baodao's economic development and further reduce Baodao's import of cars, fuel and other products."
President Jiang did not expect that Li Jianhui would be so generous when he came here, especially the establishment of Donghua Petrochemical Group, which could fill Baodao's vacancies in the petrochemical industry to a certain extent.
Trucks and buses are also needed by Baodao. With the existence of these industries, Baodao's industry will be further improved and Baodao's economy will be further improved.
He knows that the main market of Tung Wah Association is not just Baodao. Southeast Asia and even the mainland are the focus of Tung Wah Association's corporate development.
These two major automobile production bases have been put into production, and the cars that will roll off the assembly line in the future will enter Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and the mainland.
"Thank you Mr. Li for your trust in us, and please rest assured that I also believe that your investment will definitely bring you generous returns, and our government will always provide policy guarantees for your investment.
We also welcome investment in Mr. Li’s other industries, such as our government’s proposal for Taipei MRT Line 2 and the Central No. 2 Expressway from Taipei to Tainan.”
At present, Li Jianhui is not very interested in the two projects. Not only will they cost a lot, but the rate of return is still low.
After politely rejecting investment in these two projects, Li Jianhui stopped talking about investment issues and instead chatted with President Jiang about the world economic development situation.
Seeing this, President Jiang also understood that Li Jianhui probably had no intention of investing in other industries this time, so he did not keep Li Jianhui any longer.
It was only when Li Jianhui said goodbye that he mentioned Li Jianhui's father, uncle Li Jianhui and his second uncle.
Especially the two uncles Li Jianhui, who died on the battlefield to defend the country in that era, I hope Li Jianhui will not let the blood of these people be shed in vain when he does things.
