In the afternoon, Song Guanchao received a call.
The caller was an investor from Jianyuan City.
Introduced by Zhang Xiaoxian.
As soon as Song Guanchao heard it, he knew it was an investnt brought in by Zhang Xiaoxian.
In the evening, Song Guanchao hosted a banquet to discuss investnt details.
The other party would lend 50 million to the high-speed rail project team at an annual interest rate of 3.7%.
Early next morning.
Song Guanchao handed the contact information to Director He, asking him to draft the loan contract and be in charge of the coordination.
Around midday, Song Guanchao received several more investor calls.
By 2 PM, the promised 500 million from Zhang Xiaoxian had all been secured.
Director He hadn’t paused for a mont since the morning, but he didn’t feel tired at all.
He was prepared for the trouble from displaced households, but Secretary Song silently secured the funds!
In half a day, brought in a 500 million investnt!
By the 27th, wouldn’t 2 billion be achieved easily?
Although following Song Guanchao ant constant troubles, he always seed to have a way to solve them.
There seed to be nothing that could crush him.
He vaguely saw the makings of a leader in this young secretary.
Calm in crisis, unperturbed by ups and downs.
These are all capabilities a leader must possess.
"Knock knock." A junior staff mber entered: "Director He, President Lu from Golden Heaven and Earth is looking for you."
Director He raised his eyebrows.
He wasn’t fond of Golden Heaven and Earth at all.
At their most critical ti, not only did Golden Heaven and Earth not help, but they added fuel to the fire, demanding paynt.
A few million was not much at all.
But it was disgusting!
"Let him in."
Not long after, President Lu walked into the office.
Director He maintained a courteous smile: "What brings President Lu here?"
President Lu knew they had offended recently.
The day after demanding paynt, a team of supervisors arrived, monitoring Golden Heaven and Earth’s construction 24/7.
If dust pollution didn’t et standards, work stopped and fines imposed.
If noise disturbed the residents, work stopped and fines imposed.
Workers not wearing safety helts, work stopped and fines imposed.
I must say, Song Guanchao was really ruthless with this move!
Applying this standard, Golden Heaven and Earth couldn’t possibly complete the demolition within the contractual deadline.
Faced with Song Guanchao’s targeting, Golden Heaven and Earth didn’t care; they simply stopped work and abandoned the project.
President Lu handed over a docunt: "Director He, we can’t handle this business; I’m here to terminate the contract."
"Terminate the contract?"
Director He was stunned, grabbed the docunt to scan it, and his face turned ugly.
He thought this crackdown would make the opponent rember.
But unexpectedly, the other party outright requested to terminate the contract.
Suppressing his anger, he called Song Guanchao: "Secretary Song, Golden Heaven and Earth are requesting termination. Yes, in the office, alright."
After hanging up, Director He said: "Secretary Song will be here soon; you can talk to him."
President Lu nodded with a smile.
Shortly, Song Guanchao entered.
"Secretary Song." President Lu nodded with a smile, not getting up.
Song Guanchao picked up the termination contract, scanned it quickly, and said: "Transfer the breach penalty within seven working days."
President Lu smiled slightly.
He knew before coming that they would definitely agree.
After all, besides agreeing, they had no other choice.
Golden Heaven and Earth already knew the finances were tight.
Moreover, the city was passive about the high-speed rail project, not supporting it at all.
Without city support, funding was hard to secure.
Without funds, even if they took on the project, they wouldn’t earn.
This was why Golden Heaven and Earth dared to directly demand paynt from Song Guanchao, even threatening to sue if not paid.
And imdiately after paynt, they ca to terminate the contract.
Because they knew the project was already dead.
And the top level at Golden Heaven and Earth had connections in the governnt, already finding out the city was currently split into two factions.
One led by Wu Qiangwei, spearheading the high-speed rail project.
The other led by Secretary Lu and Mayor Zheng, pushing the old city renovation project.
Nextly, Lingjiang’s developnt focus would be the old city renovation project.
So, they had to co to terminate the contract!
Using this thod, to separate from the high-speed rail project, to distance from Wu Qiangwei.
Only this way, would they have a chance to get a slice of the old city renovation project.
Whether terminating the contract would offend Song Guanchao or Wu Qiangwei wasn’t within their consideration.
From the mont they demanded paynt, they had already offended.
So they didn’t care to offend even more thoroughly.
"The breach penalty will be paid on ti."
"Secretary Song, Director He, I’ll take my leave. We can cooperate again when there’s a chance."
President Lu pressed his palm against his suit, stood, and left.
Director He cursed: "Golden Heaven and Earth are really despicable!"
Initially, the 500 million investnt brought by Song Guanchao had lifted his spirits.
Golden Heaven and Earth’s sudden contract termination spoiled his mood.
"Ignore it."
Businessn are all about profits; talking relationships and ethics with them is as boring as discussing feelings with a prostitute.
Only Golden Heaven and Earth’s conduct was too ugly.
He initially thought it was Zheng Bihui or Secretary Lu pressuring Golden Heaven and Earth.
Now it seed that wasn’t the case.
Golden Heaven and Earth simply wanted to sever ties with them.
They had their eyes on the old city renovation project!
If they didn’t cut ties cleanly, they couldn’t get a share of the old city renovation project!
This decisive ruthlessness, Song Guanchao quite admired.
However, Golden Heaven and Earth didn’t anticipate that the high-speed rail project was about to revive!
Song Guanchao said: "Transfer Golden Heaven and Earth’s project to New City Company."
Director He worriedly said: "Can New City Company handle it?"
"They can!" Song Guanchao said: "I’ll contact Chairman Liu later; you just arrange soone to sign the contract."
"Okay."
Since Song Guanchao said they could handle it, they definitely could.
Song Guanchao had already proven his capability with multiple successful actions; he needed not doubt, only needed to execute.
Leaving the office, Song Guanchao called Liu Lanzi: "Golden Heaven and Earth terminated the contract; you take over their project."
Liu Lanzi sighed: "Company finances are tight."
Implying she wasn’t unwilling to take on more projects but was limited by finances.
The company’s finances were tight, and she was under great pressure.
Song Guanchao asked: "Can you hold out for a month?"
"Yes."
"Then take it; all paynts can be settled in a month."
Liu Lanzi pondered for two seconds, then said: "Alright."
She trusted that Song Guanchao wouldn’t deceive her.
Since he said a month, they would definitely settle paynts.
Returning upstairs, Song Guanchao barely ward his seat when Xu Xin suddenly found him: "Secretary Song, Secretary Chu requests you."
"Now?"
"Yes."
He entered the office, seeing Chu Xiao’e with a serious expression.
On the desk was a docunt with a red stamp.
Chu Xiao’e adjusted her mood and pushed the docunt over: "Take a look."
Song Guanchao picked up the docunt, reading carefully.
Two minutes later, his face flashed violent anger, gritting his teeth, he spat out a na: "Qu Xiangru!"
