Chapter 241 Connecting the Heaven and Earth Line
"Boss Yin."
"Try the big grouper from Zhuhai. Is it as fresh as that from Hong Kong Island?"
Wu Liming used a spoon to scoop a piece of meat from the fish's belly, and with a smile on his face, he very politely put the fish belly into Yin Zhaotang's bowl.
"Director Wu, you're welcome."
"I would be disrespectful to refuse."
Yin Zhaotang stood up and toasted as a polite gesture.
Today, China Merchants Group is the host, and Director Wu will definitely have to sit in the main seat.
As the leader of the investment group, Yin Zhaotang sat in the main guest seat to the left of Director Wu, and the rest of the people sat in order according to their status and rank.
Chen Jilin saw Yin Zhaotang picking up his chopsticks and began to taste the fish belly. According to the rules of the wine table, he asked, "Boss Yin, how is the dish? Is it to your taste?"
"great."
"It's more fresh than the seafood in Hong Kong Island." Yin Zhaotang gave a thumbs up and praised loudly with relish.
Chen Jilin knew that the specialties of the two places were the same, and that the seafood caught in Hong Kong was fresh and fierce, so he humbly declined the offer: "Mr. Yin, you are too kind."
"In the province, the people are poor and the land is poor, but the craftsmanship left by our ancestors is still good."
"As long as it suits Boss Yin's taste."
Yin Zhaotang shook his head: "Chen Chu, don't be too modest. Chinese people's stomachs can only eat Chinese food. There are no such good chefs overseas."
Chen Jilin, Wu Liming, and Long Ziqiang laughed wildly, and the distance between them was closer.
Although they all knew that it was just a polite remark, whether they were willing to say it or not was a matter of attitude.
After all, there are many Hong Kong businessmen who invest in the province who are arrogant and domineering.
Capitalism is serious.
A large number of people at the grassroots level who have made progress by cutting off the capitalist tail are actually very unhappy.
Even Bao Yugang donated 10 million US dollars when he was discussing business in BJ.
You brought a few US dollars with you, and yet you dare to treat them like that and disrespect the common people?
Yin Zhaotang's attitude towards others made the reception team feel comfortable. Chen Jilin's face was flushed with wine and he was in high spirits. He came to Yin Zhaotang, bowed and took the initiative to pour wine: "Boss Yin, if you like the taste of home, come home often."
"Of course, of course. I didn't have any friends at home before, but now I have Brother Long, Brother Chen, and Director Wu as my friends. I will definitely come back more often."
"I am a man who values loyalty the most!" Yin Zhaotang drank the wine in his hand.
Anyone who has done business before has at least some exposure to drinking culture.
Generally speaking, Hong Kong businessmen are too proud and arrogant to negotiate clearance with reception groups from the Mainland.
Today, Yin Zhaotang not only drank with them, but also knew the rules.
Although many etiquettes require the younger brother to drink for the other, he doesn't put on airs and really acts like a real brother.
Two bottles of Chivas Regal were already placed on the floor, and three bottles of Moutai had also been opened.
Chen Jilin put his arm around his shoulders affectionately and asked, "Brother, let me say one more thing. What kind of business does your company plan to do in Shenzhen?"
“How much Hong Kong dollars to invest?”
This is asking Yin Zhaotang to show his chips. The amount of chips will determine his future status.
Although there is no official document defining the SAR, there are four levels based on the amount of investment: Hong Kong businessmen, partners, patriotic friends and patriotic entrepreneurs.
The documents issued in the Special Administrative Region will show that the treatment received on a daily basis is completely different.
Just like the name bestowed by the country, the honor given by the special administrative region will have the protection of the special administrative region.
Many overseas Chinese are unaware of the local protectionism in the Mainland, so how can they take advantage of it? As a result, they are clearly guests of honor of national leaders, but are strangled in a small place.
The antenna is important, and the ground wire is equally important!
If any one of them is missing, it cannot be considered as connecting the sky and the earth.
Now is an age of convenient wiring, so there is no need to hide it.
Yin Zhaotang clinked glasses with Director Chen and said, "Brother Chen, I plan to invest in a clothing and sneaker factory, making sneakers and clothes together."
"I'll discuss this with the company's boss and try to get an investment of 2 million Hong Kong dollars." Chen Jilin raised his eyebrows.
"Two million?"
This price is not low, it is 40 US dollars according to the exchange rate.
The mainland has no shortage of workers or industries.
After the Soviet Union's donation and the Third Front construction boom, the manufacturing industry had accumulated certain technologies, but what it lacked were high-tech production lines for electrical components, aircraft and automobiles.
Foreign exchange is needed to purchase these production lines and conduct research and imitation.
Foreign exchange needs to be earned by selling goods, and the importance of Hong Kong businessmen lies in playing a pivotal role in the process.
Invest money in manufacturing, sell for profit, and bring the money back to the country.
Form an external cycle and pull up the three driving forces of "export, consumption, and investment".
The big businessmen invest in the country's destiny and earn merit for generations.
For small businesses, what we invest in is policies and what we earn is the dividends of the times.
In the eyes of people in China Merchants Group, every penny of foreign exchange is a political achievement.
The starting price is two million Hong Kong dollars, and we can squeeze out another two million!
Chen Jilin lowered his glass by three points and said flatteringly, "Boss Yin, don't fight for it. I will help you to secure the two million Hong Kong dollars first."
Yin Zhaotang would not give up easily, he raised his left hand and said: "This is the general manager of Pegasus, the God of Wealth."
"Then I'll toast to the God of Wealth again." Chen Jilin drank without hesitation. He really has a good alcohol tolerance.
"Implement it. We must implement it."
Zuo Shou was cooperating with the big boss, so he definitely couldn't lose face to Chen Chu.
Chen Chu immediately accomplished his goal and returned to his position.
Wu Limin, on behalf of China Merchants Group, stood up and shook hands, saying, "Boss Yin, the investment of two million Hong Kong dollars is a timely relief for Shenzhen."
"If you need anything or can help, please feel free to ask. Long Ke and Captain Peng are here, so we can discuss it together."
Long Ziqiang was burping, his face was red and his neck was thick, but he reacted quickly and said, "Yes, Boss Yin, you can say it behind closed doors."
"We are all good brothers here!"
Never underestimate the word "brother" at the drinking table. It is an invisible ticket. Only if they are willing to be brothers with you will there be a chance to exchange interests.
Of course, if you want to get money by calling yourself a brother and giving it away with nothing, you are treating people as fools.
The arrangement of the accompanying delegation from the mainland is nominated by the top leader, and the job positions and levels are very particular.
As soon as the China Merchants Group received the money, it was willing to give sweet rewards. It seems that Shenzhen is really sincere.
Dapao's eyes flickered, he was very excited, and looked at the boss frequently.
Yin Zhaotang shook his head unexpectedly and said, "Business is business, and it's a fair trade. If the people of Shenzhen are willing to cooperate with us to recruit workers and build a factory, it will be the greatest help to Pegasus Company."
"Oh?"
Wu Limin looked suspicious and asked, "Boss Yin really has no demands at all?"
Everyone present has heard that Zhongyitang uses large airplanes to transport pork within the province. It's a harmless business and no one would talk about it openly.
This time Yin Zhaotang came to the mainland specifically to invest, and some people speculated that he wanted to expand his waterway business.
“No.”
"Director Wu, I'm just a simple businessman who came to the mainland to invest and build a factory. As long as the business goes well, what else do I want?" Yin Zhaotang smiled and did not avoid the gazes of Long Ke and Captain Peng. He seemed frank and not hypocritical.
Wu Li was thinking for a moment, and said slowly, "Is that so? It's really my fault. I was judging others by my own standards."
"I will punish myself with a drink. I will punish myself with a drink."
