Chapter 582 Weighing the Concessions
Zhao Anbang got straight to the point and said, "Even if what you said is correct, it's not a reason for Beishan Automobile to change its attributes.
Now the Beishan Automobile Project has been approved, which means that it is a state-owned enterprise that is completely controlled by the Beishan State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. If you want foreign investment to come in, at least several conditions must be met, such as development needs or poor management.
"For the needs of development, the domestic market has the support of the Hanjiang government, so there is no need to introduce foreign investment. If you need to expand overseas markets, I have no objection to choosing Shengtian." He looked at Luo Qian.
Luo Qian smiled and took over the conversation, "Governor Zhao, I'm very sorry. Because of my family's status as Tongwei, Shengtian will not participate in government-led projects and enterprises. This is also to avoid suspicion.
Furthermore, Shengtian is currently focused on the electronics and network industries, and car manufacturing is not currently on our radar screen.”
Zhao Anbang lamented, "That's such a pity." He then said to Qi Tongwei, "If it's not about developing overseas markets, then there's only one other reason: poor management.
However, I think Beishan Automobile still has very good momentum. If you deliberately let it become a privately-led enterprise, Tongwei, then you have to think carefully about whether you can bear the responsibility for the loss of state-owned assets.
The loss of state-owned assets is a serious problem, especially during this special period. I'm not afraid to tell you that just six months ago, Yinshan investigated and dealt with several similar cases, and the provincial party committee recommended strict and severe punishments. You must not make the mistake of doing so."
These words completely blocked Qi Tongwei's plan.
Qi Tongwei regretted it. If he had known that Longteng Group would enter the market first and he would follow up with state-owned capital, Zhao Anbang would definitely not be able to tell what was going on.
It’s not that Qi Tongwei wants to gain any benefits. He just hopes to leverage the strengths of both parties to form competitiveness in the market, create a century-old enterprise, and radiate global influence.
Most state-owned enterprises in later generations can only occupy a place in the country unless they have a monopoly or rely on state power. As for foreign countries, most companies have little competitiveness.
At this time, Zhao Xiaoya spoke. Her tone was very calm, but her words were like a club, hitting Zhao Anbang on the head, making Zhao Anbang's eyes dizzy. "Forget 20% to 30%. If there is no 51%, I'm afraid we can only say sorry for the billion funds we are going to invest in Beishan."
No matter how much Qi Tongwei said, it was not as good as this solid blow, which really hit Zhao Anbang in the heart.
Four billion is an astronomical figure. Even if the provincial government wants to come up with it, it is not easy. At least Zhao Anbang cannot approve it, and it is invested in a city.
Beishan City is currently at a critical stage and urgently needs this huge amount of funds to promote various development plans.
For Zhao Anbang personally, this money is also crucial.
If we can successfully obtain and reasonably use these 4 billion yuan, it will not only bring new vitality and vigor to the city of Beishan, but it may even enable it to rise from difficulties and be reborn.
However, if Zhao Anbang dared to refuse to accept the funds, the consequences could be disastrous.
Once this news spreads like wildfire and reaches every street corner, ordinary people, including leaders at all levels, will definitely not think that he made such a decision out of protecting state assets. After all, whether Beishan Automobile can grow is still an unknown, and no one will see that far.
Instead, they would only accuse him of being too selfish, completely disregarding the livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of Beishan people in order to satisfy his own selfish desires. In this way, his reputation and image would probably plummet.
The central government and the provincial government probably won't have a very high opinion of him. By then, not only will he not be able to take over as governor, he will also suffer a political Waterloo.
People will eventually seek good and avoid danger. Principles can be discussed, but compromise is not necessarily impossible. At least now he needs to compromise for the sake of the people and himself.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Anbang said gloomily, "Mr. Zhao, we are still in the discussion stage and have not yet entered into formal negotiations. Don't make a decision so hastily. Besides, although Beishan Automobile has a good prospect, it may not necessarily be the right choice for you.
I think there are many companies in Beishan City that are worth investing in. You can also explore them. There is no need to invest only in Beishan Automobile. "
Zhao Xiaoya said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "When I do business, I always pursue maximum profit and trust only my own vision. From a business perspective, not holding a controlling stake means that the funds we invest are no longer under our control. This situation is very dangerous, and neither I nor the board of directors would agree to it."
Zhao Anbang was stunned and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei tried to smooth things over, "Okay, let's not discuss this issue for now, okay? Today we're just conducting an investigation and research."
But Zhao Xiaoya looked at Qi Tongwei, sighed and said, "Okay, forty-nine is forty-nine, but we also have a request."
Zhao Anbang was stunned, not understanding why the other party suddenly changed his attitude, but he still said, "Director Zhao, go ahead."
Zhao Xiaoya said, "I hope that Longteng can withdraw from Beishan Automobile's controlling stake at any time, and that the Hanjiang Provincial Government cannot interfere when we withdraw."
Zhao Anbang became alert. This was not a request at all. Wasn't this the normal procedure?
Zhao Anbang said: "If a shareholder wants to sell his shares, it is a market behavior and should not be considered a request. But I hope you can give priority to state-owned assets taking over. This is also normal market behavior. As another shareholder, I have the right of first refusal."
"Of course." Zhao Xiaoya said calmly.
Zhao Anbang couldn't figure out the other party's intentions for a moment. Could it be that the other party wanted to use market behavior to cause a financial crisis for Beishan Automobile? To break up completely?
On second thought, it seems very likely that Longteng Group, as an investment company that has been very popular in the market in the past two years, is stirring up trouble in the stock market. If it sells off Beishan shares in large quantities after Beishan's listing and then triggers other investors to follow suit, Beishan will definitely suffer unnecessary losses.
However, this method works for other companies, but it may not be useful for Beishan Automobile. The Hanjiang government is already on guard. If the other party dares to sell, it will only be bought up in large quantities. After all, Beishan Automobile is a high-quality stock and cannot be compared with Hanjiang Steel and Coal Mine.
As for using negative news, once verified, it is not a business behavior, but a crime, and they can pursue it to the end.
If Zhao Xiaoya knew what the other person was thinking, she would probably just sneer at him for worrying too much.
She just didn't want to embarrass Qi Tongwei. Zhao Anbang was right about one thing. If Beishan Automobile was in her hands and developed, would some people think that Qi Tongwei was selling out state assets in the future?
If the Hanjiang government represented by Zhao Anbang has this attitude, Qi Tongwei will probably be in big trouble in the future.
In addition, she believes that without Qi Tongwei as the chairman of Beishan, Beishan Automobile will not be far from decline, so it is better to take profits and exit directly.
Qi Tongwei was also trying to figure out what Zhao Xiaoya was thinking, and didn't understand why her usual dominance came to an abrupt end.
It was not until two horns were heard from a distance that everyone's thoughts were interrupted.
Three colorful cars came in one after another, accompanied by the chatter of women.
Qi Tongwei regained his composure and led his team to meet them.
