Chapter 2024: Setting an Example

When Zhou Xiaozhe heard him mention Gu Hongcheng, he didn't say anything more. After all, he agreed to meet Hai Changchun only for Gu Hongcheng's sake.

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Zhou Xiaozhe said, "Chairman Hai, I know what you want to talk to me about. You probably want to know Secretary Liu's attitude towards Chairman Yin, right?"

Hai Changchun smiled and said, "Secretary Zhou is a quick-witted person, so I won't hide anything. I was very confused by Secretary Liu's attitude in the previous meeting. After all, I am a native of Chaojiang and should be supported by the Chaojiang government. Also, when the Yangjiang transportation line was being planned, Secretary Liu also made it clear that the Chaojiang government was short of funds, and it was me, Hai, who stepped forward and loaned money to help the government build the road. Now Secretary Liu's attitude seems to be a bit like a traitor."

Zhou Xiaozhe waved his hand and said, "Chairman Hai, please don't misunderstand. Secretary Liu is just considering everything. How could he cross the river and then burn the bridge?"

Hai Changchun sneered, "The dispute between Yin Daheng and I can be said to have been provoked by Secretary Liu. I also know that the 20 billion is indeed enviable, but our government departments can't just focus on performance and ignore reason, right?"

Zhou Xiaozhe listened carefully to Hai Changchun's complaints with a smile on his face all the time.

After he finished speaking, Zhou Xiaozhe said slowly: "Chairman, please be patient. To be honest, it doesn't matter at all to the Chaojiang government and Secretary Liu who controls the Yangjiang transportation line..."

Hai Changchun frowned and asked, "What does Secretary Zhou want to say?"

Zhou Xiaozhe smiled and said, "What I want to say is that the Yangjiang line is just a superficial appearance. In addition, the 20 billion is indeed exciting, but the funds have not been implemented, which is also a blank check. When Hengtong Group was investing in various parts of the country, didn't it issue enough blank checks?"

Hai Changchun snorted coldly: "So you also know that Yin Daheng is best at getting something for nothing!"

Zhou Xiaozhe nodded and said, "Of course I know. We also know that his business logic is to obtain the land, mortgage the land, and borrow money to build buildings. He spends all the country's money and then asks the people to pay for him. After the whole cycle, he basically doesn't have to pay any price."

Hai Changchun looked at him without saying anything.

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "So the more Hengtong Group invests, the more land it wants to acquire. At that time, the amount of loan it will need will be higher. Secretary Liu will have to consider how to repay the loan and whether it will drag down Chaojiang's economy."

Hai Changchun narrowed his eyes and said, "You all know that he is suspicious, why do you still support him?"

Zhou Xiaozhe said helplessly: "You are a smart person, otherwise, you wouldn't have come to see me. In fact, when Mayor Gu asked me out, I told Secretary Liu about it. Secretary Liu has allowed me to reveal some inside information to you."

Hai Changchun heard that Zhou Xiaozhe's words were full of hidden meanings, and immediately asked curiously, "What's the inside story?"

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "Before the meeting, Yin Daheng had met with Secretary Liu and brought out some things."

thing?

Hai Changchun's eyes flickered. Could it be that Yin Daheng bribed Liu Fusheng?

The next second, he denied this idea. If this was true, Zhou Xiaozhe would never dare to say it even if he was beaten to death.

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "This thing is evidence of some things that Chairman Hai did when he first started his business."

Hai Changchun's face changed: "Are you saying that Yin Daheng has something on me?"

Not to mention the beginning of his business, even now, Hai Changchun’s bottom is not clean.

Zhou Xiaozhe nodded and said, "That's true. When Chairman Yin went to meet Secretary Liu, I happened to be there. Before I left, I vaguely heard Chairman Yin say that you have committed too many crimes and will fall sooner or later. It is unwise to cooperate with you."

"For the sake of Chaojiang Municipal Government's image, people's livelihood, economy, reputation, etc., the Yangjiang line should not be handed over to Sino-Ocean International Group for management."

At this point, Zhou Xiaozhe sighed, "I don't know how much evidence Chairman Yin has, and it's not convenient for me to ask Secretary Liu. Anyway, you should take care of yourself."

Hai Changchun knew very well that with Zhou Xiaozhe's identity, even if he knew those secrets, he would never tell him.

Once they say it out, both he and Liu Fusheng will be put in a passive position. If he really gets into trouble, they will both be guilty of harboring a criminal and suspected of bending the law for personal gain.

Hai Changchun pondered in silence. He knew that as a leading figure in the real estate circle of eastern Guangdong Province, Yin Daheng was indeed capable of finding clues of his illegal activities. If he were in Liu Fusheng's position, he would probably be biased towards the other party.

After a moment, Hai Changchun sighed, "Secretary Liu knew about this and asked Secretary Zhou to come see me. This means that he still trusts me, right?"

Zhou Xiaozhe smiled and said, "The secretary once said that no one is perfect. Sino-Ocean International Group is, after all, a local enterprise in Chaojiang. It is a business card we have created. As long as you can handle those things properly, the Chaojiang government will definitely give you corresponding support."

Hai Changchun rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Thank you Secretary Liu for your trust in me. Chaojiang really has a good leader. However, I need some time to do these things well."

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "Secretary Liu also understands your difficulties. He can give you some time. However, you have to think of a way to deal with Hengtong Group. You can't let them keep making a fuss about this matter, otherwise the government will be under great pressure."

Hai Changchun asked doubtfully: "How can I find a solution?"

Zhou Xiaozhe whispered, "They can collect evidence of your violations, so you should also be able to give them a taste of their own medicine, right? If everyone has evidence, it's the same as if no one has evidence. Without getting caught, you should be able to delay the problem, not to mention solving it."

Hai Changchun's eyes lit up and he said, "Thank you Secretary Zhou for your reminder. Yin Daheng really went too far. He said that we at Sino-Ocean International violated regulations and disciplines. In fact, Hengtong Group has done even more things that are against the rules. I will definitely not let them off easily."

Zhou Xiaozhe nodded and said, "In addition, Chairman Hai had better set a certain example for the government."

"What example?" Hai Changchun asked.

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "The public-private partnership agreement you signed with the government states that you will use the operating rights of the Yangjiang line in the next few years as collateral to borrow money from the bank to build the road. This is equivalent to you playing a trick of getting something for nothing. Secretary Liu hopes that you can show your sincerity so that the leaders of the Chaojiang Municipal Government can be more confident in you. In this way, if you encounter any problems, they will definitely protect your legal rights first."

"This one……"

Hai Changchun hesitated a little when he heard this. Liu Fusheng asked him to take out real money, which was no small amount. He had originally had a good idea, which was to use Tang Shaoying's relationship to do a trick of getting something for nothing. If he agreed to Liu Fusheng's request, he would not be able to continue this play.
