[In view of the general environment,
At 21 o'clock, Sun Jian, who was in a suit and leather shoes, was driven by a car outside the Xiangjiang Convention and Exhibition Center. He put on his ID card as a representative of the viewing group and stepped out of the car. According to the procedures, security personnel came forward to check the identity of the representatives of the viewing group. After passing the security check, there were greeters Guide and enter the VIP room for the viewing group representatives to rest.
"Hello, Leader Li!"
At a glance, Sun Jian saw the leader of Pengcheng, Leader Li, who was also brought by a car. As a representative of the viewing group, he went to the entrance of the convention and exhibition center alone and quickly stepped forward to say hello.
Leader Li has been working in Hubei Province for a long time. In June 1989, he served as deputy chief of S. Sun Jian also had several dealings with him. He was not official and was a good person. In June 1992, he became the mayor of Pengcheng. In April 1993, he took over the leadership of Leader Li. Although Sun Jian does not have a good personal relationship with his predecessor, Leader Li, as one of the largest investors in Pengcheng, Sun Jian meets with Leader Li three or four times a year, and his personal relationship is not bad.
"Hello, Mr. Sun!"
Leader Li passed through Luohu Port in the morning and came to Xiangjiang from Pengcheng. He stayed at the representative office of the viewing group. He met Sun Jian here and felt like meeting an old friend in a foreign land. It was very cordial. He knew that Sun Jian had a big family in Deep Water Bay, Xiangjiang. Villa, arrived in Xiangjiang in advance.
"Leader Li, your boss is here to make the stars in Xiangjiang shine brighter!"
Ha ha……
Leader Li's nervous mood immediately relaxed, and he sighed in his heart that Sun Jian had more opportunities to meet big leaders than he did. He often went abroad and saw the world. When he came to such a big occasion, he could still be calm, confident, and magnanimous. Extraordinary, worthy of being the hidden richest man in the world!
"Is Mr. Sun interested in building a Guozhi Computer production base in Pengcheng High-tech Park?"
The two passed through the second security check one after another, entered the VIP room for the viewing group representatives, and sat down. There were not many VIPs, and a staff member brought tea.
Leader Li already knew that before the listing ceremony of Shancheng Municipality, Leader Li visited Shuguang Communications (Shancheng) Group and invited the company to accompany him.
Sun Jian, who was also visiting, invested in Shancheng. Sun Jian invested 300 million yuan to establish Guozhi Computer (Shancheng) Company without saying a word.
Sun Jian not only left a good impression on Leader Li, but also established a computer production base in the southwest.
"Leader Li, please help me by leaving 500 acres of good land for Guozhi Computer (Pengcheng) Company in Pengcheng High-tech Park. In October, Taobao Holdings Company invested 300 million yuan to build three computer production lines."
In addition to its Shanghai headquarters, Guozhi Computer Company plans to establish five computer production bases in Pengcheng, Jiangcheng, Jingcheng, Chang'an and Shancheng (Rongcheng) within five years to cover the domestic market. In addition to increasing production capacity, it also saves transportation costs.
Leader Li took the initiative to invite, but Sun Jian couldn't ask for it. It had a completely different meaning than setting up a factory on his own.
"Thank you, Mr. Sun!"
Leader Li was so happy that he participated in the handover ceremony of Xiangjiang's return to power and received an investment of 300 million yuan from Sun Jian.
"Leader Li, please pay more attention to the listing of Pengcheng Securities Company!"
Once Pengcheng Securities Company is listed, it will rely on the power of the capital market to carry out mergers and reorganizations, rapidly develop and expand, and widen the gap with its competitors.
Now is the top priority of Pengcheng Securities Company. Liao Jingwen brought various materials for applying for public issuance of stocks, along with "Accelerate the pace of building a first-class domestic securities firm, bravely welcome the competition from foreign securities firms, and actively serve the reform of state-owned enterprises" written by Sun Jian himself. 》 article, the preparatory team is busy.
When Sun Jian met President Dai in the mountain city, he also sent a copy of his article and asked President Dai to pay more attention to it.
"Mr. Sun, the development of Pengcheng Securities Company is also the pride of Pengcheng. It is also of great benefit to Pengcheng's economic development. Pengcheng still has a lot of listing quotas. Mayor Li and I have already approved it. The Municipal Securities Management Office We are going through the process and the results will be available next week.”
Leader Li also read Sun Jian's article and lamented that Sun Jian has a lofty position and deep connections. Although Pengcheng Securities Company is controlled by Taobao Holdings, the central bank and the Securities Commission reviewed and approved it without saying anything. The speed was so fast that the industry People were surprised.
"Thank you, Leader Li and Mayor Li!"
During this period, Pengcheng Stock Exchange was not yet under the management of the Securities Commission. A company's public issuance of stocks required the consent of the central bank and was reviewed by the Securities Commission. The stock listing quota was allocated from the planned stock quotas owned by provincial and municipal securities management. There was a lot of money and a shortage of stocks. The listing quota is a hot spot for state-owned joint-stock companies to compete for.
"Mr. Sun, I just have something to tell you. You should be very aware of the fact that Pengcheng Development Bank was punished by the Central Bank and the Securities Commission!"
"Leader Li, Zhou Zhiping called me and told me."
"Mr. Sun, after He Yun was dismissed by the board of directors, Pengcheng Development Bank still has no president. The Pengcheng Branch of the Central Bank recommended Zhou Ning, the president of Pengcheng Branch of the Bank of Guangdong Province, to be the president. After Mayor Li and I talked to Zhou Ning respectively, It was unanimously agreed that he should serve as the president of Pengcheng Development Bank, which still needs to be approved by a vote of the board of directors."
"Don't worry, Leader Li. I applaud you and Mayor Li for the talents you and Mayor Li have identified."
