City Committee eting.
After discussions among the standing committee mbers of the City Committee, led by Tang Yung and Song Ming, a temporary group was ford with Tang Yung and Song Ming as main mbers, dedicated to handling the investnt from the Zhu's Corporation.
Inside the committee, two mbers firmly opposed this decision, as it was a disrespect to the heroic spirits. However, once others heard that the investnt exceeded ten billion, they saw it as a once-in-a-millennium opportunity for Linjiang and the whole Jiangbei City.
The next day, Lin Chuan arrived at the lounge with a cheerful rhythm. Inside the lounge, there was a loud discussion, as everyone was talking about one matter.
"Lin Chuan, you finally made it?" Luo Guoqing quickly pulled Lin Chuan over.
"What happened?" asked Lin Chuan anxiously.
"Oh no, a big issue." Luo Guoqing was anxious: "You don't know, Secretary Tang and others have already agreed to sign with Zhu's Corporation. Although they haven't formally agreed to allow them to construct the Heroic Spirit Monunt at Dragon Spring Mountain, the possibility is still quite high. Look, what should we do?"
"Let's wait and see the results!" Lin Chuan said: "The leaders will give us an explanation."
In fact, Lin Chuan had already guessed that the City Committee would sign a contract with Zhu's Corporation, but the specific terms definitely wouldn't fully comply with Japanese wishes. The final outco was still hard to predict.
At that mont, the Song brothers walked in from outside.
"Good news," Song Wen exclaid excitedly: "It's been decided in the City Committee eting that the investnt from Zhu's Corporation has been approved. Haha, the economy of Jiangbei City will definitely skyrocket from now on."
"Yes," nodded Song Wu, saying: "With Zhu's Corporation's investnt near ten billion, it will definitely stimulate our economic growth. We should be happy about this."
"Happy about what?" Luo Guoqing replied unhappily, saying: "What if the Japanese insist on building the monunt? We haven't even built our own people's monunt, why should we build theirs?"
"Exactly." Soone nodded, saying: "Isn't this too servile and pandering to foreign preferences? It would be one thing if it were the Aricans, but it's the enemy who invaded us decades ago. Should we agree to build monunts for our enemies? That's just a joke!"
In the lounge, many drivers were retired soldiers. Soldiers are very sensitive about such things, harboring deep resentnt and sha towards past invaders. Even though decades have passed in history, it's only a few decades, and now we are discussing building monunts for the enemies who killed our forefathers and defiled our won. This was unimaginable.
"What do you know?" Song Wen sneered, "Nowadays, China-Japan friendship is promoted, aiming for mutual developnt. For a win-win cooperation, so compromises are necessary."
"The General Secretary indeed advocates for China-Japan friendship," Lin Chuan stood out and said: "But that is rely on a diplomatic level, on a trade level. The spirit of the General Secretary teaches us to rember history, bear the sha, and turn grief and indignation into strength, not to forget history and seek glory through betrayal."
"What do you an?!" Song Wen glared at Lin Chuan, raging: "Are you implying that Secretary Tang and Secretary Song are seeking glory through betrayal?"
"Whoever agreed, bla them!" Lin Chuan disdainfully replied.
"You really talk big." Song Wu furiously said: "It seems you don't want to continue working here, huh?"
"Working under such glory-seeking masters, I'd rather not." Lin Chuan responded disdainfully with a smirk: "But you two brothers are really interesting. What are you swaggering about all day? Following the masters in their betrayal?"
At this mont, Minister Chen walked in, his face grim.
"Lin Chuan, what nonsense are you talking about?" Minister Chen glared at Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan smiled and said no more.
The others in the lounge also shut their mouths. After all, it was just a debate. Moreover, those in the lounge had the least authority to speak. They were the lowest-level workers of the City Committee.
Song Wen and Song Wu walked in smugly, settling down leisurely.
"Sigh..." Luo Guoqing heaved a sigh and said, "Damn it, what kind of people are these."
"Never mind," Lin Chuan remarked dismissively as he took a drag from his cigarette, then added, "These aren't things we can decide. Let it be."
After all, he was just a driver, how could he possibly stop the decisions of the City Committee.
Liu Dagu, thrilled upon hearing the news, eagerly conveyed the ssage to Fujii Katsuyoshi. anwhile, Lin Chuan drove Tang Yung to Linjiang. Since they were going to sign the contract, it naturally ant that Tang Yung and the colleagues from the investnt office should go together. This was a major contract, not to be underestimated, and the content of the contract must be scrutinized word by word, ensuring not to fall into any traps set by the other party.
Both parties sat down again in the conference room.
Fujii Katsuyoshi nodded in satisfaction, not showing too much surprise or excitent. Signing the contract was within his expectations, although there were so regrets, there would be opportunities to strive for more in the future. Giving Chinese people a taste of benefits, would they refuse his other demands? His plan was originally set in three steps, and the initial tough stance was rely a strategy planned for better execution of the initial basic signing.
Fujii Katsuyoshi smiled and said, "Qingzi, get the contract out. Let's sign it today."
"Yes, Mr. Fujii!" Qingzi quickly nodded.
Lin Chuan stood behind Tang Yung, both sides looking very formal in their uniformly black suits, except Tang Yung wore a white suit, which appeared stylish and capable. A few lawyers and colleagues from the Investnt Office were seriously studying the contract, which ca in three copies. It was a thick stack, and they spent an hour and a half to finish reading it.
"Secretary Tang, no issues," Lawyer Zhong said earnestly.
"That's good," Tang Yung nodded and said, "Let's sign it."
Tang Yung signed first, followed by the colleague from the Investnt Office. Liu Dagu was incredibly excited; he was finally able to sign such an important docunt. The docunt was in three copies, and it contained text in Chinese, Japanese, and English languages. The header of the docunt bore the label of Zhu Corporation and appeared very formal. Liu Dagu quickly wrote his na beneath Tang Yung's.
The contract was now officially in effect.
"Mr. Fujii, thank you for your investnt," Tang Yung stood up and said.
"It should be us thanking you for your compromise," Mr. Fujii smiled and said, "Money is nothing to ; what matters most is fulfilling my grandfather's last wish. I hope you will give this opportunity in the future."
The room burst into enthusiastic applause.
"Alright, since the contract has been signed, we should also be heading back," Fujii Katsuyoshi smiled and said, "In a month, we will send the first investnt team over to conduct the project survey. Then, we'll complete the design drawings, and probably start the preliminary construction in about three months. Of course, all engineers will be brought over from Japan. By then, I hope Miss Tang can help recruit workers. We will probably need a lot of manpower."
"Don't worry," Tang Yung nodded and said, "I definitely will."
Once this project was underway, it would undoubtedly provide thousands of employnt opportunities for Linjiang and significantly increase the economic index of Jiangbei City each year. Why wouldn't they do it?
Just as Fujii Katsuyoshi was about to leave, he suddenly paused.
"Lin Chuan." Fujii Katsuyoshi spoke.
"What is it?" Lin Chuan was startled and asked, "Mr. Fujii, do you have any other instructions? I can't help with building graves and monunts."
"It's not about that." Fujii Katsuyoshi smiled and said, "I rember Mr. Lin ntioned that you were interested in Qingzi?"
"Ah?" Lin Chuan was shocked.
"So, I plan to leave Qingzi by your side," Fujii Katsuyoshi smiled.
"Mr. Fujii!" Qingzi exclaid, "I... I want to go back to Japan with you."
Fujii Katsuyoshi imdiately waved his hand, and Qingzi silenced imdiately.
"No, no, no..." Lin Chuan quickly waved his hands, "I don't need that, Mr. Fujii, please don't joke. This woman is so fierce; I can't handle her. If you leave her by my side, aren't you putting my life in jeopardy?"
"Mr. Lin, the food Qingzi makes is very delicious," Fujii Katsuyoshi smiled and said, "Besides, Miss Qingzi is also quite capable, you could use an extra hand. Lastly, by leaving Miss Qingzi here, she can supervise the construction work."
"This..." Lin Chuan was stunned.
Tang Yung narrowed her eyes, a woman's sixth sense always having a kind of ominous premonition.
"Alright, it's decided then," Fujii Katsuyoshi declared.
"Wait a mont." Lin Chuan hurriedly shook his head and said, "That should also need my consent, right? Moreover, if you just leave her with , I have no money to support her. I have no money now, and with my current inco, I can't afford it."
"Don't be modest," Fujii Katsuyoshi smiled and said, "Your assets in Jiangbei City may not be a lot of money, but they are certainly enough to provide for Qingzi."
"Mr. Fujii..." Qingzi sobbed quietly beside them.
"Alright, don't cry," Fujii Katsuyoshi soothed her for a while and said, "Stay here, work hard. From now on, you are Lin Chuan's woman. Take good care of him."
After that, Fujii Katsuyoshi left the hotel with Ishino Saburo and others. A few Crown cars took them to the provincial city airport. Fujii Katsuyoshi and his team's private jet was parked at the provincial city airport, the daily parking fee alone amounting to tens of thousands, not to ntion maintenance costs.
Qingzi stood crying alone at the doorway of the eting room, this outwardly ferocious woman's heart was incredibly fragile.
