Everyone looked towards the stairs and saw a thin, middle-aged man walking slowly. It was Chu Waner's father, Chu Xiangbei.
"Xiang Bei, you're here, everyone is waiting for you!"
"Brother Xiangbei, you are so busy. It's not easy to meet you!"
"Hello Uncle Chu!"
"Hello Uncle Chu!"
Chu Xiangbei looked around slowly with a smile, nodding frequently, and finally stopped at Zhang Jiaqiang's table, and smiled specifically at him.
"Dad, you are here!"
Chu Waner shyly called Dad.
Chu Xiangbei walked to the table and said with a playful smile, "I heard dance music just now. I wonder who will be lucky enough to be my daughter's dance partner tonight?"
"Dad, it was Brother Jiaqiang who danced with me. Are you tired? Have you eaten? I asked them to give you two of your favorite dishes?"
Chu Xiangbei was slightly surprised. He glanced at the people on the table and found that several people looked like defeated quails. He immediately smiled.
"I won't get involved in the affairs of you young people. Jia Qiang, let's take everyone to eat and have fun. I'll go over there first, and we'll talk alone later!"
After that, he walked towards Liu Luoying's table. There were only Liu Luoying and the Jiang family at this table.
He sat next to his wife, picked up a glass of wine and said.
"I had a work dinner when I came here. You can have it as you like. This glass of wine is a self-imposed punishment!"
Everyone at the table hurriedly brought cups to accompany him.
Putting down the empty cup, Chu Xiangbei said, "I came late, was there any special program just now?"
Jiang Jinnan, the father of the Jiang siblings, said with a slight hesitation.
"What's special is that Zhang Jiaqiang invited Wan'er and Xinxin to dance at the same time. Other than that, everything is normal!"
Chu Xiangbei covered his mouth and coughed, frowning and said, "He is a married man, dominating two girls tonight will be fun!"
Jiang Jinnan and his wife almost complained, saying in unison, "Is that kid already married?"
The two of them looked at Liu Luoying with a hint of reproach in their eyes.
Liu Luoying frowned and said, "Yes, I just realized that Jia Qiang is acting this way with the intention of disrupting the situation. Is this his idea or someone's instruction?"
Chu Xiangbei smiled bitterly and said, "He won't have such boring thoughts. I think it's the old lady's intention. Let's leave it like this. It's not sweet to be stubborn. Just wait for fate. I don't believe that outstanding girls like them can't marry. Got it!"
Jiang Jinnan wanted to stand up several times, but he held it back forcibly, his face becoming distorted from the pain.
His wife Li Jiamin understood that her husband wanted to talk to Zhang Jiaqiang, but now was really not the time, so she hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said.
"It's been a long time since our two families got together. Let's have a couple of drinks today and relax!"
"Okay, cheers!"
"cheers!"
...
Although this banquet was full of water and land, with countless fine wines, the atmosphere was extremely dull. Except for the drinking fight at the beginning, almost no one took the initiative to drink and toast later.
Zhang Jiaqiang had a lot of exchanges with several young men, and got to know some of their current situations, so he had a good idea. In any case, these people could be regarded as connections.
In this atmosphere, the banquet gradually came to an end.
Just when Zhang Jiaqiang was about to end the banquet with a toast, Chu Xiangbei found him again.
The two sat down on the sofa next to them.
Chu Xiangbei said, "Jia Qiang, uncle heard that you are doing business. Are you interested in investing in Magic City?"
If there are only ten billionaires in this era, then there are probably more than five in Shanghai.
In addition to finance, daily chemicals, textiles, metallurgy, precision electronics, etc., almost all of these industries are also here.
If Zhang Jiaqiang plans to really make a name for himself in China in the future, then he must enter here.
It was obvious that Chu Xiangbei was not here to attract investment, but intended to give him a chance.
However, the funds in Zhang Jiaqiang's hands are really stretched at present. Even the tens of millions from Longcheng have not been implemented. Where can the large amount of funds be invested here?
But if you refuse this time, you will miss a huge opportunity. I don’t know when the next time will be.
Zhang Jiaqiang thought for a few seconds and said seriously, "Yes, I happen to be interested. What advice does Uncle Chu have?"
Chu Xiangbei smiled happily and admired this young man's success.
"Guidance is out of the question. I suggest you decide which line of business you should invest in before, and establish yourself first. Don't be too ambitious!"
Zhang Jiaqiang understood that this was a pertinent statement, and he had such plans.
When investing, invest in industries you are familiar with and seek development based on your own industry. Especially in a place where crisis and business opportunities coexist, and risks and huge profits coexist, you must be more cautious.
"I started my business in the plastics and food industry in Luonan. Uncle Chu, if I buy land and build a factory here, will there be any preferential policies locally?"
Chu Xiangbei nodded slowly and said, "Currently, there are policies for attracting investment, but the preferential treatment for foreign investment is even greater, especially for direct foreign exchange investment, which is exempt from tax for at least three years. Of course, there are also some fees and costs. Reduction!”
As he spoke, a sly look appeared in his eyes.
Zhang Jiaqiang's eyes lit up and he understood that this was a reminder from the other party that it was best to bring in some foreign capital so that he could legally enjoy the maximum discount.
I just have the $10 million promissory note in my hand, plus the more than one million from Brother Chao. With this money, I can build two modern factories in Shanghai, which can be regarded as officially entering the Jiangnan market!
It's just that it's a bit troublesome to find a reliable foreigner to be a partner, and you have to think about it carefully.
Chu Xiangbei said, "Think about it carefully. Now the city is vigorously developing Jiangdong District. There is a large area of land waiting for development there. I hope you can catch this bus!"
Jiangdong District will develop into a key economic growth area in the Magic City in a few years, and it will be regarded as one of the leading important areas in the country.
It has not yet been greatly developed, so being able to participate is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
In a few years, every inch of land here will be at a premium. If you can get more land at this time, you will make a lot of money even if you close your eyes.
Ten million is too little, we must get more funds now!
But where can I get money?
Zhang Jiaqiang's mind was spinning rapidly.
At this time, Chu Xiangbei interrupted him and said thoughtfully, "Jia Qiang, how are you and Wan'er getting along today? Although my daughter is naughty and loves to play around, she will never be embarrassed in serious matters. She must be talented and beautiful. You are good-looking, and you can boast that you are a rare good match. I hope you can get to know each other better!"
Zhang Jiaqiang's brain suddenly came to a sudden stop and almost crashed.
This is talking about investment, but why does it involve feelings? You clearly know that I have a wife, do you want me to divorce my wife and marry another?
This matter must not continue, otherwise we will be in big trouble.
He said hurriedly and solemnly.
"Uncle Chu, don't worry, even if it's not for my godmother's sake, I will treat Wan'er as my own sister. As long as I'm here, no one will bully her at all!"
