"Mayor Qin, I have some bad news for you. The chairman of our company said that he has no plans to invest and build a factory in Haitong City for the time being." Ji Haitao said with a hint of apology in his tone.
To put it bluntly, he is just a part-time worker, just a high-level part-time worker.
Whether the company is willing to invest and build a factory in Haitong City is a decision made by the directors, and he can only make a suggestion.
Today he bit the bullet and made a suggestion, but after thinking for half a minute, their chairman Ge Binhai refused.
After Qin Yi heard this, he frowned slightly.
I didn’t expect to receive the first bad news today!
"It's okay. It's all about attracting investment. It's normal to fail! Otherwise, give me your chairman's phone number. I want to contact him personally. Is it convenient for you?" Qin Yi asked.
Ji Haitao hesitated for a moment and said, "That's no problem. I'll send it to you later."
"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner when I have time."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Yi soon received the phone number sent by Ji Haitao on WeChat.
"Mayor, did you reject it?" Seeing Qin Yi's expression not so good, Zhang Guangsen couldn't help but ask.
"Well, it's normal to be rejected, but we can't just give up like this. Only by being thick-skinned can we ask for help!" Qin Yi smiled optimistically.
"Let's go back first."
Return to hotel.
Qin Yi dialed the number directly.
About five or six seconds later, the call was connected unexpectedly!
"Hello, Mr. Ge, I am Qin Yi, the executive deputy mayor of Haitong City, Tiannan Province. I am taking the liberty to call you. I am really bothering you."
A second later, an old voice came from the phone: "It turns out to be Mayor Qin, hello."
"Mr. Ge, I'm calling you to invite your company to invest and build a factory in our Haitong City! Our Haitong City has a new industrial park area. I believe Manager Ji should have mentioned it to you before. Our Haitong City Now there are very big policy preferences for foreign companies!”
"If you can come to our Haitong City to invest and build a factory, the rent of the factory will be free for a minimum of five years, and we will also provide a three-year tax exemption policy!"
"The advantages of our Haitong City. I believe Mr. Ge, you have also learned about it from Manager Ji. Your company's export volume to ASEAN is quite large. I am very optimistic about your Suhai Province's increased export volume to ASEAN in the future, because Nowadays, the urbanization of ASEAN countries is accelerating, and their demand for coatings and paints is increasing day by day. If you can invest in our Haitong City, it will not only reduce the cost, but also facilitate exports! The most important thing is that the industry in Suhai Province has already After development reaches a certain level, some enterprises with high energy consumption and certain environmental pollution will definitely have to be relocated. Our Haitong City is definitely a good choice..." Qin Yi spoke quickly and briefly summarized the essence. Speak out.
At the end of the phone, Weiwei was silent for more than ten seconds: "I didn't expect Mayor Qin to have a thorough understanding of the situation in ASEAN countries. Well, if you are free tomorrow afternoon, you can come to visit our company and I will interview you by the way. .”
Hearing these words, Qin Yi's face lit up with joy!
It's probably because he gave up the five years of rent-free and three years of tax exemption that the other party was a little interested!
But moving does not mean that the negotiation will be successful!
It is estimated that the other party may also want greater preferential policies!
And attracting investment does not mean that you will definitely succeed if you can attract it, and it may not necessarily succeed if you sign a contract. In the end, it still depends on whether they will actually invest in building a factory!
But no matter what, now at least I have a chance to talk to the other party.
"Okay, thank you Mr. Ge for the opportunity." Qin Yi smiled.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Guangsen and others all looked happy.
Naturally, they heard the content of the conversation!
"Mayor, we seem to have taken a turn for the worse." Zhang Guangsen flattered him.
"Whether it will work or not depends on tomorrow! We don't want to be happy too early." Qin Yi waved his hand.
At night time.
Another piece of bad news came. The senior executive from Bangli Paint Co., Ltd. tactfully said that the boss of their company did not plan to invest in building a factory for the time being.
Qin Yi followed the same pattern and still asked for the other party's chairman's phone number and called him. However, after being polite, the other party refused outright.
Qin Yi didn't even give him a chance to visit their company.
Of course, he didn't say it clearly, he just said that the other party was going on a business trip tomorrow, so he was perfunctory.
Qin Yi shook his head helplessly at this!
To put it bluntly, Qin Yi is just the executive deputy mayor of a prefecture-level city, and the situation in Haitong City is also here. If the mayors of those first-tier cities come to attract investment, maybe these bosses will be polite.
To put it bluntly, Haitong City cannot attract them!
The next afternoon.
Qin Yi came to Juxiang Paint Co., Ltd. for a visit.
I also met the chairman Ge Binhai, who is in his fifties. His hair looks a little gray, but he is very energetic.
After the two parties met and were polite, Qin Yi visited the other party's company.
Half an hour later, both parties appeared in the conference room.
"Mr. Ge, we come here with sincerity!" Qin Yi said straight to the point.
In fact, Ge Binhai naturally understood what Qin Yi said.
Paint companies like theirs, to put it bluntly, still pollute the environment to a certain extent.
Suhai Province is so developed now that it will be a matter of time before a company like theirs is forced to relocate!
And as Suhai Province becomes more and more developed, the cost of their factories is getting higher and higher.
Without a certain salary, it will be difficult to recruit workers.
There are also high costs of electricity, energy, etc.
If they move to Haitong City, they can indeed save their costs. And as Qin Yi said, Haitong City is next door to the ASEAN countries, with convenient transportation, low costs, and port transportation.
In the next two to three years, their company will actually need to invest in new factories elsewhere and gradually relocate its production lines.
Originally, he had waited another two or three years.
But yesterday Qin Yi called him and told him the conditions, which made him a little moved, and that's why we met today.
"Since Mayor Qin is so forthcoming, let me tell you the truth. In fact, we also have plans to invest in building factories in the next two or three years. But if we want to plan ahead now, it will be a huge pressure for our company. After all, we need Take out the funds to invest in building factories!”
"I wonder if we can give them a bigger tax discount?"
"For example, five years! Five years of tax exemption!" Ge Binhai held out five fingers.
Five years?
Qin Yi's heart sank.
Too long!
It will take at least about a year to build the factory.
Then there will be another five years of tax exemption and five years of rent exemption, which means that in the next 6 years, their Haitong City will have no fiscal revenue at all!
