Chapter 396: New District Again

“Yes, the conference just ended this month, and I have reached the age where I should give my position to the younger generation.

However, I am not retiring completely this time, but going to the National People's Congress to rest for a while."

On the phone, Father Liu spoke slowly and leisurely, as if he didn't think this was a big deal.

"I think what you just said is a good thing, just go ahead and do it.

Why, do you need my help with such a small matter?"

Just when Fang was organizing his words and preparing to say something, Father Liu continued.

"That's not the case, it's just that this news came too suddenly, I'm a little..."

Fang Xiang said sullenly.

"Hahaha.

What's sudden or not? Didn't I tell you last year?

By the way, the person in Shanghai has already assumed office as mayor, you can just contact him directly."

Mr. Liu laughed and turned the topic to the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

"When I'm done here, I'll bring Xiaoying and the children back to Beijing to see you.

Summer vacation is coming soon, so you can let your children spend more time with you."

Fang Xiang paused for a moment and immediately thought of Liu Shuying and the children.

"Okay, I'll wait then.

That's it. I have something else to do, so I won't talk to you anymore."

Mr. Liu readily agreed and hung up the phone.

"Mayor Jiang, I'm Fang Xiang.

It’s like this, there’s something I want to discuss with you…”

After hanging up the phone with Liu's father, Fang Xiang directly dialed the number to Shanghai Stock Exchange.

"Oh? This is a good thing. The Shanghai Stock Exchange will definitely support it.

Xiao Fang, if you have any requests, feel free to ask. "

On the other end of the phone, Mayor Jiang's voice sounded very cheerful.

"If you say so, I won't be polite, right?!"

Fang Xiang dealt with Mayor Jiang for the first time.

Although there is not much difference in their current levels, Fang Xiang still feels a little bit inferior when he thinks of the other's later achievements.

"What's the point of being polite? You're actually doing me a favor.

I have to thank you very much.”

Mayor Jiang saw it very clearly. Although Fang Xiang's rank was slightly lower than his, he was also a well-known technical leader in the country.

He has made outstanding contributions in many fields.

Moreover, this time the factory is being built in Shanghai, and the municipal government only needs to approve a piece of land and provide some policy support.

Not only do you not have to spend a penny, but you can also get some credit for free. This service work must be done well.

Otherwise, if Wan Fang fails to maintain good relations here and the other party turns around and goes to the capital, wouldn't he gain nothing and be embarrassed?

"I thought so......"

Fang Xiang had no idea that Mayor Jiang thought highly of him, but he vaguely felt that he was praising him during the conversation.

Now that I have said this, I will naturally not be polite.

"in addition...

I also have a big idea for Shanghai Automotive Industry... "

After talking about the idea of ​​building an electronics factory and an electronics research institute, Fang Xiang hesitated for a moment, but still told them about his plans for Shanghai Automotive Industry.

"Shanghai Auto? Then tell me about it."

Mayor Jiang held the phone in one hand and took notes in a notebook with the other.

I was so happy in my heart. It was such a good thing, just like finding money on the roadside.

When he heard that Fang Xiang still had ideas about Shanghai Auto, he was also moved.

“Shanghai Auto is too old.

The factory is old and small in scale, and is far behind the times.

Shanghai has an excellent geographical location and is a nationally designated southern economic center. I think Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation can fully play a leading role.

It also links up the industries of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and several surrounding provinces.

As you know, the automobile industry involves hundreds of industries and sectors upstream and downstream.

The current foreign demand for our country's BMW and GAC is a bottomless pit.

But GAC and Second Automobile Works have now reached a bottleneck period and have reached a certain scale. Not only are they difficult to manage, but their scale is too large, which makes it easy to produce marginal effects.

So I am thinking about opening up the market in Shanghai and Shanghai Auto.”

Fang Xiang slowly expressed his thoughts.

"Then... Professor Fang, do you have any specific ideas?"

After listening to this, Mayor Jiang did not speak in a hurry. Instead, he pondered for a while before asking a question.

“Pudong is a great place.

Does Shanghai have any idea of ​​developing new districts? "

Fang Xiang’s idea was very simple. The cake of Shanghai New District and Shanghai Auto was too big for Liu Qiwen to eat at all.

Since he can't finish it, why not ask others to eat with him?

Many senior officials have already vaguely guessed where Mayor Jiang's future ceiling lies, but Fang Xiang knows it better than them.

If we invite others, naturally we should invite Mayor Jiang to eat together!

Apart from anything else, this contribution is enough for Mayor Jiang to live on for the rest of his life, and he will also have to be grateful to the other party.

If you think about it carefully, there are only advantages and not many disadvantages, so why not do it?

"Pudong? New District?"

Mayor Jiang pondered these two words.

"Ok.

I heard that the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the National Academy had discussed similar matters before, but according to my father-in-law, the original plan was a bit petty.

But if I really want to do it, I’m short of money.

So the matter has been put to rest. Since the electronics factory and Shanghai Automobile have plans this time, why not include Pudong?

Even if you don’t have money now, it doesn’t mean you won’t have money in the future, right?

If we can't do it on a big scale now, we can start on a small scale. Mayor Jiang might want to consider it.

By the way, I have an older brother-in-law who is currently in Guangdong Province. He is an expert in this area.

When Mayor Jiang is promoted to Secretary Jiang in the future, who knows, my brother-in-law might be able to form a team with you, right?"

There is no need to even think about it. Anyone who is in politics is eager to achieve political achievements.

Many people can even make considerable concessions for the sake of political achievements. Since the Pudong New Area will be proposed in the future anyway, why not propose it themselves?

Moreover, Fang Xiang also specifically mentioned Liu Qiwen.

It was obvious that Fang Xiang could not leave Liu Qiwen alone to cooperate with others in development and political achievements while Liu Qiwen would not get any of the benefits.

That would be a very unfair thing to do.

So Fang wanted to just put Liu Qiwen out in the open.

The fact that Fang Xiang is the actual controller of Great Wall Industrial is actually no secret among the top management, and many people know it.

Even the fact that GAC was built by Fang Xiang with great investment, everyone who needs to know it knows it.

Otherwise, with such a big piece of cake, why should Fang Xiang have the final say?

Now, Shanghai Auto and Pudong are the second piece of cake that Fang wants to make.

If you want to borrow Fang Xiang's funds, you must give up the cake, and the person who eats the cake is Liu Qiwen.

This sentence must not be said.

But... who among those in politics is not the best of the best? How could they not hear the subtext?

"Pudong is a big piece of cake. Professor Fang is really generous!

However, even if we start planning now, it will take at least several years to submit, approve and implement.

I also know Liu Qiwen whom you mentioned. He still has one year before the term change. It may be difficult for him to leave Guangdong Province so soon.

It would be better to let him serve for another term so that we can lay a solid foundation in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

When I get promoted to the next term, he can come and take charge of the Shanghai Stock Exchange. We can work together to implement this plan.

Professor Fang, what do you think? "

Mayor Jiang immediately realized what Fang Xiang meant.

To be honest, he definitely wants this deal, but he wants the fattest piece of the pie even more.

As for what he said, it did not come out of thin air.
