Chapter 21 Go to attract investment
The Jingcheng 212 off-road Jeep in the countryside is almost fifteen years old.
After exiting the alley, I drove onto the provincial highway, shaking my butt full of mud.
Yu Yang spent the whole night playing King of Fighters last night, defeating more than eighty strong and invincible opponents, and now he really wants to take a nap.
But when people ask us to help, we must do our best.
As for attracting investment.
In his opinion, this is nothing more than inviting others to do business in his territory.
It's like Lao Yu from another time and space went to engage in real estate development. In order to attract popularity, he built a CBD and then lobbied companies to move in.
And how many years will it be free of rent, how many years will I help pay taxes, how many subsidies will be given based on the number of customers, and I will help you settle whatever happens.
Instead of attracting investment to the township, it will become land for building factories, tax reductions and exemptions for several years, and financial support for how many jobs will be created. If there is a problem, the township will take care of it for you.
Yu Yang suddenly became unhappy when he thought of this.
"By the way, I also run a company, why didn't you recruit me?"
The township chief was slightly startled, "You are a local company, why should I recruit you?"
"There has to be tax exemption, right?"
"Have you paid taxes?"
"Well, the leader smokes..."
The township head lit the Huaxia cigarette, took a deep breath, and consoled him: "Don't worry, the township has urged the superiors to get all the certificates for three-yuan agriculture as soon as possible. By then, there will definitely be tax reductions and exemptions, and we will also help with land, loans, etc. We are all on our own, how can we turn our elbows outward to take advantage of outsiders?”
"That's the truth, smoke, smoke."
The deputy mayor put the cigarette behind his ear and took out a few pages of paper from the document bag. "This is the goal of this investment promotion."
"Liaoshi Sanxin Glass Factory?"
"Well, it used to be a government enterprise, but later it was reformed and became privately owned. However, because the issue of compensation for laid-off workers has not been resolved, and there were a lot of troubles, the factory's operations have been intermittent.
The scale is relatively small, with total assets of 1.37 million. In recent years, its turnover has dropped a lot, to less than 100,000, and it is on the verge of bankruptcy.
But this is already one of the few targets for successful investment in our township. After all, you know what Shili Camp is like. "
The director of the Investment Promotion Office who was driving said: "We have contacted the other party several times. The other party is very interested. After all, we can get rid of the matter of compensation for laid-off workers, but the local government will not let go, or in other words, the local government requires the factory to solve the problem before we can leave. This matter has been delayed for more than a year.”
Deputy Township Head: "Furthermore, when we get to the field, don't tell us our true identities or that we are here to attract investment, otherwise we will be beaten."
Yu Yang understood.
These days, even bankrupt companies are local concerns.
If you go to dig out someone's heart, you will probably be drugged or burned, let alone beaten.
Then he flipped through the information on the investment target in his hand.
Factory director’s name, factory address, factory scale, corporate assets, annual output, annual turnover...
Township head: "Xiao Yu, I asked you to come this time mainly because we and the locals hide and seek, hiding here and there, and becoming familiar with each other."
"I know, just say, I will come forward."
"Transparent."
"Actually, for this kind of matter, you can definitely ask Zhang Hai, the big supporter. He is well-informed and speaks well."
"Zhang Hai, the man surnamed Han, and the owner of the boxing trailer are busy building a fleet. They said they would go to Tianjin and Hong Kong after picking up 1,000 baskets of bean sprouts. They are not free recently."
"Lao Huang from the briquette factory can do it too."
"He's a rustic, has yellow teeth, and has bad breath. If he goes there, he won't be disliked."
"At least Lao Huang has a sound mind and understands things, otherwise he would definitely take over the brick kiln from the bank."
Yu Yang has a very good impression of his own coal supplier.
At least they dared to give us dozens of pig iron stoves on credit when we were in debt.
He added, "The person is quite nice."
Deputy head of the township: "What a piece of shit he is. He hasn't paid taxes in three years."
"Not arrested?" Yu Yang asked curiously.
The director of the Investment Promotion Office who was driving shook his head, "Who's arresting you? Six months ago, the local tax collector went to the market to collect money and had an argument with a carrot seller. He was stabbed three times on the spot. He is still recovering."
"..."
Not long after.
Jingcheng 212 left the provincial highway and sped north along the bumpy cinder road.
Yu Yang looked at the investment information and was a little drowsy at first. After being jolted like this, he not only became more energetic, but also felt a pain in his butt.
I was just about to shout to stop the car and go down to take a rest.
The off-road jeep beeped twice and stalled.
The director of the Investment Promotion Office, who was driving, was used to it. He took out a wrench and a screwdriver from under his butt, got out of the car, lifted the engine hood, and started repairing.
Ten minutes later, the road was repaired.
But just after crossing the Yellow River pontoon bridge, the engine stalled again.
So again and again.
The journey was less than 60 kilometers and took most of the day.
By the time we arrived at the outskirts of Liaocheng City, it was already 3pm.
Everyone found a small forest to meet their domestic needs. After returning, the director of the Investment Promotion Office took out a set of Dongshan Mansion license plates and prepared to replace them.
Yu Yang shook his head, "Since we are so familiar with the local area, and we don't change cars, but only change license plates, maybe someone will have an excuse to arrest us."
"What should we do? We can't walk to the city."
"You and the deputy mayor drive an off-road jeep and drive around the city. When you are tired, you go shopping in the mall. This is to attract firepower. The mayor is coming with me."
This time Yu Yang took the lead, and with such an arrangement, no one could say anything.
After the director of the Investment Promotion Office drove away, the township chief looked around at the empty road and asked, "Where are we going?"
Yu Yang took the mobile phone from his elder brother and dialed 114, asking him to be transferred to the largest automobile trade city in Liaocheng City.
"I plan to buy a car. I'm on Nanjiao Road now. Send someone to pick me up. There are three of us."
"Okay boss!"
soon. A purely imported Buick flagship model, Boulevard, parked in front of everyone.
The township chief was stunned, "Can this still happen?"
"Buying a car, we are a big customer."
Yu Yang took on the posture of a general contractor and signaled to his elder brother to open the rear driver's door, and Shi Shiran got in.
At the same time, he motioned to the township chief, "Sit in front."
A little bit.
The vehicle starts.
The driver who came to pick up the car was an experienced sales manager.
Seeing that everyone was either wearing cadre uniforms or wrapped in military cotton coats, he deliberately asked:
"What car are you planning to see, boss?"
"Do you have any high-end cars at home?"
“What price do you need?”
"About a million or so."
"BMW 740i, 96 version, how about it?"
"Price?"
"Promo price 988,000."
"Your prices are a bit exaggerated..."
After Yu Yang finished speaking, his voice changed, "The car we are riding in should be produced in 1995. It is the first generation of Park Avenue, 4-speed fully automatic, and 3.8L V6 engine. When my old man first made his fortune, he bought it for the sake of appearance. I bought one and went through the big trade procedures, and the landing price was 500,000.”
Township head: "..."
Your dad is already in the business and you still want to buy a car?
But in order not to expose the secret, I could only lower my head and read the documents.
The sales consultant frowned slightly when he heard this, "500,000 is really cheap, the boss should use his connections, right?"
"I don't know, I was still young at the time."
"Then which car does the old man drive now?"
"In business, after setting up a company, you get a project, get a loan, then buy a luxury car to deduct taxes, then mortgage the luxury car, then buy a house, then mortgage the house, and finally get a loan to start a business, that's all. It’s all there.
Therefore, I later renovated a Crown, and within two years of driving it, I added a Toyota Century.
I came to Liaoshi to do business in the morning and I complained about him being a traitor, so he left me alone. "
Sales consultant: "..."
Township head: "..."
"So don't bully me that I don't know how to drive, and don't bully me that I don't have any connections. I'm looking for you. It's because I don't have a means of transportation now, and the price is more reasonable. If that doesn't work, let's take a taxi to Dongshan Mansion."
"Don't worry, boss, since you are here, we will definitely sell sincerely and never let you suffer a loss."
After talking nonsense all the way, we soon arrived at the Auto Trade City.
The other party should be very powerful.
The lobby on the first floor actually has the prototype of a 4S store, with several best-selling cars on display.
Xiali, 68,000.
Jetta, 138,800.
Beverly, 148,000.
Songhua River, 49,000.
Changhe, 56,000.
Turning around the best-selling section, there were two more luxury cars.
A Mercedes-Benz S320, black, with a price tag of 1.098 million.
A Cadillac, extended length, top-of-the-line configuration, with a price tag of 1.18 million.
There is no such thing as a stock car these days.
For example, luxury cars that came in through large-scale trade procedures, that is, imported through formal channels, because the East has not yet joined the WTO, may have been floating at sea for more than half a year, or even a year, before entering the port.
Therefore, the quotation sheet brought out by the sales consultant included an S600 that was produced in 1996 and has been discontinued.
Chassis number W140, known as Hu Touben in the world.
Since it has been discontinued, and the interior and configuration are all lagging behind the new S600, the original price of Hutou Ben is 2 million + 200,000.
The current price is 1.68 million.
Yu Yang really wanted to buy Hu Touben.
First, I have more than 1.7 million in cash, all of which is currently deposited in a bank, and it is also a credit union, which is very unsafe.
It's better to buy a luxury car, use it as a mortgage, and end up owing money to the bank.
The second is.
Before rebirth, I was used to seeing all kinds of luxurious designs. Even an electric car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars can give you a technological look.
Now that I have been reborn, if I look at the models of this era, most of them are terrible.
Only Silver Thorns and Tiger Head Running can keep up with the times.
We can't afford Silver Thorn now, so we can only choose the latter.
But now look at the price of Hutou Ben after the plummet, and then look at the slightly fragile new version of S600 Butterfly Ben...
This is like wanting to buy the fashionable iPhone 12, but when we arrived in Sanlitun, we were told that it was discontinued and now it is iPhone 16, and 16 does not meet our aesthetics.
No matter how you look at it, it’s awkward.
This is worse than getting a domestic Huawei X5 folding screen.
Yu Yang thought about this and looked at the sales consultant.
"Is there an extended version of Red Flag?"
"???"
"It's better to raise red flags."
"..."
