Chapter 1757: Chapter 1757
The warm sunlight poured through the glass window onto the bedding, and Song Guanchao sat up in bed, stretching lazily.
While brushing his teeth, he opened the surveillance app on his phone and dragged the progress bar to check what had happened at home last night.
Everything was peaceful; no one had broken into the room in the middle of the night.
Looked like this arm of his still wasn’t going to sell that easily anytime soon.
Well, he was at least a deputy department–level cadre; ordinary people wouldn’t dare take this job.
But anyone who did dare would definitely be a ruthless character.
When he got to the office, Song Guanchao turned on his computer and looked over the plan for shutting down and merging the polluting enterprises.
After revising it again and again and reading it over several times, he felt this plan was quite good.
It was just that some of the details made him want to make changes.
For example, according to Cai Zixiang’s suggestion, they should talk things through with all the companies’ executives and reserve enough positions for them, so that they would cooperate.
But when he thought of how those guys had repeatedly reported him and even got involved with Lin He, he felt very unhappy.
Knock, knock.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Jiang Yiren pushed the door open, gently closed it again, walked over, and asked with concern, "I heard you offended some people."
Song Guanchao acted as if he hadn’t heard her, staring at her without blinking.
That gaze made her little face flush in an instant; her eyes turned shy and dodged his: "What are you looking at me for?"
"Ask your dad to come over," said Song Guanchao.
It wasn’t that he suddenly found Jiang Yiren good-looking, but that he had thought of a good idea.
He could completely hand over the acquisition of quality assets to someone else!
Wasn’t Lin He doing exactly this!
If Lin He could do it, why couldn’t he?
No reason to let fertile water flow into outsiders’ fields; this matter was about to be taken over by him.
As long as the Jiang Family had the capacity to swallow it, he could absolutely hand it over to them.
"My dad?" Jiang Yiren was a little confused. "What do you want my dad for?"
"To talk business." Song Guanchao checked the time and said, "Have him come over right now."
Jiang Yiren slowly reacted; it should be about official business.
Ever since he’d returned that two hundred million, he hadn’t met her dad again.
Although her dad had gotten a connection with him, he hadn’t gotten any projects through him.
Her dad was very anxious about this and kept whispering in her ear every few days, asking her to invite Song Guanchao to dinner.
But Song Guanchao was very busy; he had no time.
And now he was主动 asking to see her dad.
She was a bit excited and even forgot to go out; she dialed her dad’s number right in front of him.
"Dad, Song Guan... Director Song wants to see you. Mm-hmm, right now, just come straight over."
After hanging up, Jiang Yiren said, "My dad’s coming right away. By the way, what do you want to talk to him about?"
"Ask your dad later. You go out first; I still have some things to deal with here."
"Hmph."
Jiang Yiren puffed out her cheeks, wanting to act spoiled, but when she saw how serious he looked, she held back her little temper and left, half happy and half resentful.
Jiang Zhengdong arrived quickly; while Song Guanchao was still working out the details, he had already come in.
Jiang Zhengdong was excited inside; this was the first time Song Guanchao had主动 asked to see him, and that too in his office.
Through his daughter, he had come to know quite a bit about Song Guanchao and knew this man could be called a breath of fresh air in officialdom.
Even though he had made this connection, he shouldn’t think of getting any projects from the City Government through money.
Although it was a pity, Jiang Zhengdong was still more or less satisfied.
After all, if it weren’t for having tied himself to Song Guanchao, he would never have achieved his current status in the Jiang Family.
"Director Song, you wanted to see me?" Jiang Zhengdong’s face was all smiles, his tone gentle, with a bit of politeness but nothing servile.
He knew his own daughter had feelings for Song Guanchao, and the two were very likely to develop something.
When that happened, he would count as half a father-in-law.
"There’s a money-making opportunity; I don’t know if Mr. Jiang is interested."
"Please go ahead, Director Song." Inside, Jiang Zhengdong grew even more excited.
Sure enough, if he didn’t call him, then fine; the moment he did, it had to be serious business.
That was pretty good too; at least it wasn’t like other leaders, who called people over all the time for no reason, giving you nothing to look forward to.
With someone like Song Guanchao, who actually did real work, as long as you got his call, you could practically be sure it was a good thing.
Song Guanchao asked, "Have you heard about the Gaoxin Chemical Industrial Park matter?"
Jiang Zhengdong shook his head; he wasn’t in that line of business and really hadn’t heard of it.
So Song Guanchao briefly explained the situation to him, and after listening, Jiang Zhengdong already had a guess: "Director Song wants me to come forward and integrate these companies?"
"So, what do you think, interested?" asked Song Guanchao.
Jiang Zhengdong thought for a few seconds, then said solemnly, "Director Song trusts me and is willing to give me this opportunity, so I can’t hide anything from you."
"As for interest, of course the Jiang Family has it. If my third younger brother were here, he would have agreed in one breath. But!"
"Our Jiang Family has never done chemical business. In this field, we can’t say we’re completely ignorant, but we are quite unfamiliar."
"Of course, we can definitely do it! It’s just a matter of spending money to hire industry insiders and quickly putting together a team."
"And these companies’ departments are already very mature; they can be completely kept in place."
"If Director Song doesn’t mind that our Jiang Family lacks experience in this area, then I definitely want to get a hand in."
Song Guanchao smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, you’re a straightforward man."
"Here’s what we’ll do: go back and discuss it properly with your family, hold a meeting and talk it through."
"There are twenty-two companies; your Jiang Family alone can’t swallow them all. When the time comes, I figure I’ll have to find a few more families."
Jiang Zhengdong nodded. "Alright, then I’ll just use this time to get a good understanding."
After walking out of the City Government, Jiang Zhengdong felt clear-headed and refreshed.
As soon as he got into the car, he called the Old Lady. He didn’t mention the specifics, only said there was something important and that they needed to hold a family meeting.
Right after that, he called his third younger brother, Jiang Xiuwen.
When Jiang Xiuwen got the call, he felt as if he’d swallowed a fly.
Ever since this second brother of his had connected with Song Guanchao, his status in the family had been rising by the day and was already starting to threaten him.
Yet he couldn’t easily make any moves.
After all, he’d seen Song Guanchao’s methods; this young man was impervious to both soft and hard tactics.
Now that Jiang Zhengdong was his man, if he pulled any tricks against Jiang Zhengdong, it would be the same as slapping Song Guanchao in the face.
...
Right after Jiang Zhengdong left, Song Guanchao called Tan Xiang.
"Chairman Tan, are you free at noon?"
"Yes."
"Let’s go out for a meal; it’s my treat."
"Let me treat you." Tan Xiang couldn’t quite figure out why he wanted to see her; at the moment, someone on the street had hired a thug to teach him a lesson.
As someone with a bit of status and standing on the street, Tan Xiang couldn’t conveniently be seen getting too close to him at this time.
After hanging up, Tan Xiang sent him an address.
Song Guanchao glanced at it; it was a very out-of-the-way farmhouse restaurant.
The moment he saw the address, he guessed that Tan Xiang was worried someone might spot them meeting.
He didn’t drive; he took a taxi.
On the way, he deliberately checked his surroundings, and only after making sure no one was tailing him did he relax.
