He won 900 million in the lottery.

Chapter 288 Demonstration City

Established Ya Hong Biotechnology subsidiary.

Our main focus is on traditional Chinese medicine and cosmetics.

The Chinese medicinal herbs are grown by ourselves.

Cosmetic factories can be acquired directly.

Sun Xiaowei eventually resigned and came to Nan Province with Zheng Wei.

"Boss, I don't know anything about greenhouse technology or soil improvement."

"Don't worry, if you don't understand, someone else does. You just need to provide the soil environment requirements for planting Chinese medicinal herbs, and the rest is the work of other teams."

Scientific research is always a prerequisite for a company's progress.

Does the southern province lack soil experts?

Not lacking.

Is there a lack of greenhouse technology?

There is no shortage of them.

This is what we call the inherent advantage of a major agricultural province.

Under the call of Ya Hong Group, a complete closed-loop industrial chain was quickly established.

Ya Hong Group leases farmland and opens it up for planting. People can obtain Chinese medicinal herb seeds from Ya Hong Group, and Ya Hong Group provides free training and education on planting techniques. The only requirement is that Ya Hong Biotechnology subsidiary has priority in purchasing Chinese medicinal herbs.

Ya Hong Group welcomes rural farmers, low-income households, and unemployed people to come and work.

In a short time, the poverty alleviation efforts of Liancheng Yahong Group spread to four counties and two districts.

If you have money, you can grow Chinese medicinal herbs.

You can grow Chinese medicinal herbs even if you don't have money.

If people can't afford food, Ya Hong Group can provide a minimum standard of living.

If you can't afford to rent land, Ya Hong Group can provide job opportunities.

Water, electricity, coal, and natural gas have been introduced to rural and remote areas throughout the city, reaching towns and villages.

Liancheng City.

Office of the Municipal Party Committee Secretary.

"Young man, I never imagined that things would change so much in just six months."

"I used to think that being an official was nothing special, but now I realize that it's not easy at all, and there are just too many things to worry about."

I rubbed my temples.

Only by truly embracing the role of a government official can one realize that it's not that the government is indifferent or inactive, but rather that the government has so much to do that no one can possibly attend to everything.

Liancheng City has 300 million people. Just thinking about all the problems related to food, employment, education, transportation, safety, and daily life is enough to give you a headache, let alone managing them.

"This is just one city..."

Yes, this is just one city; there's also the provincial capital, and the southern province...

A long way to go.

"How is the financial preparation of the NanX Group going?"

"I contacted Wang Jianxing of the Southern Province Chamber of Commerce, who is also the nephew of Wang Quzheng of the Provincial Department of Finance. He raised funds, and I brought in funds from the Wang family, which should be enough."

"Wang Quzheng?"

Sister Tong blinked: "It's a big fish. Little brother, you have a real knack for politics. It's a real shame you didn't go into politics."

"Hehe, thankfully not. Someone like me can't be an honest official."

"What the country needs are officials who can ensure stability in their region and provide for the people's basic needs. How can officials who can't even feed themselves or keep warm have the ability to help the people or manage the social economy?"

This was yet another enlightening remark.

provincial capital.

Southern Province Chamber of Commerce.

"Part of the funding has been secured, and we are still raising funds."

"Your progress is slow. I've already completed the deployment in Liancheng."

Wang Jianxing sighed helplessly, "Comparison is the thief of joy."

Long Wu comes from Jingcheng, so there's a gap between them, which he can understand.

Unfortunately, I'm from a prefecture-level city.

I wanted to see money as an equal, but my ultimate goal was the power behind it.

They're on completely different levels, how can they play?

"The provincial party committee's policy hasn't been released yet, so many people are waiting and seeing. By the way, those small thermal power plants you want to acquire—several chamber of commerce members on the list came today. I'll act as the middleman. Try your best to reach an agreement; that way, you can have a good start."

I understood what Wang Jianxing meant, and patted him on the shoulder to express my gratitude.

"Brother Wang, it has already begun. Acquiring them is a matter of timing; those who follow it will live, those who go against it will perish."

Reception room.

Six people, the owners of a small thermal power plant.

"Greetings, esteemed bosses. My name is Shen Tianyi."

"President Shen, Chairman Wang sent us to discuss the acquisition of the thermal power plant with you. I'm here because of Chairman Wang's influence. But I'd like to ask you, what gives you the right?"

"You're so young, and none of the leaders in the Southern Province have the surname Shen."

"Even if he's Chairman Wang's uncle, he can't be this domineering."

"Everyone, please calm down."

I took out a pack of cigarettes and offered them to the six bosses: "Thank you very much for giving Chairman Wang face, and thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. I'm from Liancheng. Have you all heard of Ya Hong Group? The thermal power plant in Liancheng has now been acquired by Ya Hong Group, and its debts have also been taken over by Ya Hong Group."

The six bosses exchanged glances.

Liancheng City's actions this year have been featured on provincial television news more than once, especially its economic reforms and integrated operation of water, electricity, coal, and natural gas, which have received widespread praise throughout the city! This has benefited both employment and people's livelihoods.

Especially the integrated operation of hydropower, coal, and natural gas!

Overwhelmingly positive reviews!

Why?

By bypassing intermediaries, integrated operations significantly reduce procedures and resource waste.

The larger a company becomes, the more it will discover that what causes a company to lose money is not insufficient profits, but operating costs.

"Mr. Shen, I have a question."

"I'm here to solve problems for everyone."

"Our thermal power plant is a secondary unit, above which is the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and the head office, located in Zhejiang. How do we coordinate in this situation, including the debt issues of the subsidiary and the job issues of the employees?"

"Your head office will be negotiated by the provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. I can keep your positions unchanged, and I can resolve your debt issues."

The remaining three bosses' eyes lit up too. Was there really such a good thing?

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Please speak freely, Mr. Shen."

"Could you six help me type GG?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's very simple. After we acquire you, we'll make sure you're in the public eye more often. I'll arrange for some media outlets to interview you."

To fuel the flames.

"If Mr. Shen could mention something about the acquisition..."

I raised my hand: "You may not know my temperament yet. When Ya Hong Group acquired Liancheng Power Group, the then Party Secretary of the power plant, General Manager Yu, wasn't very willing. Also, Lu Angxing, the General Manager of the Seventh Coal Group—oh, right, the former General Manager. His father is Lu Yunfan, the Chairman of the Seventh Coal Group. Now, the Seventh Coal Group is also signing an acquisition agreement with us, and Lu Angxing wasn't very agreeable to my acquisition suggestion at the time."

This is a blatant threat.

What I need is speed, and decisive action.

No one should be allowed to leak any negative news about the acquisition.

"Alright, three days from now, I will arrange for my team to have the first negotiation meeting with your companies. Of course, if you do not agree, we can also have the Discipline Inspection Commission and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission jointly come to coordinate."

That's so pretentious, so incredibly pretentious.

I now fully understand Longwu's mindset at that time.

He really wants to kill himself.
