The efficiency of the Yuzhou government is surprisingly high. On the third day after Liu Xiaoyan and other senior officials from the Xinjian Department left, Mayor Chen Jianghua led the Director of the Industrial Bureau, the Deputy Minister of the United Front Work Department, the Executive Deputy General Manager of Changan Automobile Company and other senior officials to Xiangjiang.
And he immediately visited the Jaguar Group’s Asian headquarters.
The two parties have held discussions on joint ventures for Jaguar cars, Leyland buses and Leyland trucks. Jaguar, as a high-end brand, has no plans to enter the mainland for the time being.
However, when it comes to buses and trucks, it can be said that both parties are very interested in each other, and the communication is very pleasant.
Xiao Yulin, President of Jaguar Group's Asia Affairs, promised that a Jaguar inspection team will visit Yuzhou in the near future to conduct inspections and communicate on specific cooperation matters.
On the morning of July 6, Chen Jianghua led an investment delegation to Wheelock Building and met with Li Jianhui and some senior officials of the Xin Jian Department.
This time Chen Jianghua came to Xiangjiang, firstly to communicate about the joint venture between Changan Automobile Company and Jaguar Group, and secondly for trade.
He got some information about what Huangpu Trading Group was doing, and Debao Trading Company was also communicating with the mainland. While purchasing mainland products, it was willing to help the mainland purchase the required equipment at a lower than market price.
Chen Jianghua came here today because he hopes that the Xinjian Department can also provide Yuzhou City with the same policies as the ASEAN market. The equipment purchased by Yuzhou can also be settled in local currency, and will not be directly exchanged for foreign currency and transferred out of the country, but will be used in the country.
invest.
"Mayor Chen, my industries are all open for business. We apply the same policies to all places and will not treat them differently.
Taking into account the actual economic situation of the mainland, we also accept payment in RMB by the Yuzhou government and enterprises for purchasing our industrial products, and we also promise that the money you pay will be used for investment in the mainland and will not be converted into foreign currency at will and transferred out of the country.
But you also know that I am just a private company and do not have strong capital, so I cannot afford too much capital.
Considering that Yuzhou City is a city in the province where my hometown is located, my industry can give Yuzhou City a quota of HKD 500 million every year, even if it is temporarily depressed for ten years.
Because of exchange rate issues, if you pay in RMB, the product price will be slightly higher than the market price. I hope you can understand this."
Chen Jianghua is quite knowledgeable about the economy. Although he knows that Li Jianhui is obviously more powerful than that, he also knows that Li Jianhui will not spend all his money on the mainland.
Moreover, compared to several ASEAN countries, people with a discerning eye know better what the foreign exchange situation is here, so it is reasonable and reasonable for Li Jianhui to make this request.
Now that Li Jianhui is willing to give Yuzhou 500 million Hong Kong dollars in foreign exchange support, it is already a huge help, and Chen Jianghua is not one to push beyond his limits.
After thanking Li Jianhui, Chen Jianghua said: "As domestic rural reform continues to advance, farmers' demand for chemical fertilizers is growing day by day.
We hope that Mr. Li can purchase fertilizer production equipment worth HK$500 million for our Yuzhou in the near future. As for the specific procurement, the relevant departments will communicate with Debao Trading Company in detail in the future."
Li Jianhui naturally has no objection to this. Although many countries in the Warsaw Pact countries are short of food, the fertilizer equipment is not bad and may not be as efficient as Japanese and Western European products, but it is durable and cheap.
After Li Jianhui asked Chen Yulian to write down this request, he said: "Because Huangpu Trading Group has already established a relationship with Hungary and Bulgaria, which have huge demand for many light industrial products, we will take orders from them.
, will be purchased in Baodao, Pengcheng, and all over ASEAN.
If there are products we need to purchase in Yuzhou and Sichuan-Sichuan Province, we can communicate with Debao Trading Company. If the prices are the same, we are also willing to purchase products from companies in Sichuan-Sichuan Province.
For example, if the shirts and jeans that Bulgaria needs this time are available in Sichuan and Sichuan Province and the price is good, they can trade with us."
Of course Chen Jianghua hopes that Yuzhou companies can become suppliers of Huangpu Trading Group, but he knows very well that at present, the Warsaw Pact countries mainly purchase grain, and Yuzhou has no way to do this.
As for shirts and jeans, Huangpu Trading will not give a company too much time to slowly produce them. In order to speed up trade, they basically purchase existing ones.
Although he was not prepared, and he didn’t know if there would be any business in this area in the future, since Li Jianhui mentioned it, he would immediately notify the Yuzhou Municipal Party Committee to make preparations as soon as possible, and contact Debao Trading Company to see how many orders he could get.
, one point of foreign exchange earned is one point.
At the same time, Chen Jianghua also said that while Yuzhou is upgrading heavy industry, it will also vigorously support the development of light industry and hopes to achieve more cooperation in the future.
We also communicated with Li Jianhui on the cultivation of Chinese herbal medicines, hoping that Xiangjiang Traditional Chinese Medicine Group would put its Chinese herbal medicine planting base in Yuzhou.
In addition, with the production base of Changan Jade Lion Company put into operation, Changan Automobile Company will jointly establish Changan Jaguar Automobile Company with Jaguar Group, which will also increase the demand for steel in Chongqing.
Through the decision of the Municipal Party Committee and the Provincial Party Committee, the cooperation between Yuzhou Iron and Steel Company and Huangpu Iron and Steel will be promoted to improve the quality of Yuzhou Iron and Steel Company's products while also increasing the output of Yuzhou Iron and Steel Company.
Looking at the cooperation between Nippon Steel and Baosteel, Li Jianhui has long been interested in promoting cooperation between Huangpu Steel Company and mainland steel companies.
It was just that Yuzhou had promoted it once before but was rejected by the superiors, saying that they needed to see the effect of Baosteel, so he temporarily put aside this idea.
Now Chen Jianghua mentioned it again, and he was naturally moved. He has memories of past lives, but he knows very well how big the demand for steel will be in the next few decades.
Li Jianhui said: "I am very happy to see Huangpu Iron and Steel Company and Yuzhou Iron and Steel Company reach cooperation.
If there is any need from Yuzhou in this regard, you can communicate directly with the management of Huangpu Iron and Steel Company, and Huangpu Iron and Steel Company will fully cooperate with your work."
Since Yuzhou is not yet a city open to the outside world, cooperation between the two parties is still relatively limited, so Chen Jianghua did not mention much about investment promotion.
Now they are mainly building a good relationship with Li Jianhui. When Yuzhou becomes a city open to the outside world, that will be the time to attract Xinjian-related companies to invest in Yuzhou on a large scale.
In the afternoon of the same day, Li Jianhui specially led some senior executives to accompany the Yuzhou investment delegation to visit the Phoenix Industrial Park, Huaxin Industrial Park and the Tseung Kwan O business complex construction site.
Whether it is Huaxin Industrial Park or Phoenix Industrial Park, it is an eye-opener for Chen Jianghua and his party.
When he saw the huge construction site of the Tseung Kwan O business complex, Chen Jianghua was even more determined to promote Yuzhou's opening up to the outside world.
At the same time, Chen Jianghua also has a new understanding of Li Jianhui's strength. Not to mention other things, the total cost of the office buildings built here exceeds 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.
