Chapter 207 Xie Jiannan's Counterattack
A big bird flew up from the river in a daze, trampling the river in the moonlight, like a wild duck.
Zhang Ke and Xie Wanqing were both startled and calmed down.
Xie Wanqing asked Zhang Ke: "What happened again in Huishan?"
Zhang Ke knew that he could not hide it from her, so he explained the causes and consequences in detail, involving Jiang Daier, and even made some twists and turns.
"Ah, why did Dai'er get involved again?" Xie Wanqing felt a headache and said, "Zhengtai proposed to conduct a financial audit of Kumho, and even proposed to repurchase Kumho's shares in Haitai..."
"Zhengtai wants to use their subscription rights?" Zhang Ke curled his lips and said with a contemptuous smile, "They don't want us to interfere in Haitai's affairs, but they also want to interfere in the Kumho affairs. Is Xie Jiannan's counterattack coming?"
"What do you think seriously?"
"Let them come," Zhang Ke smiled, "It is okay to ask us to withdraw funds from Haitai, but it is not enough to spend a small amount of three or four million yuan. Show them Ericsson's profit forecast. They must at least compensate us for the profit losses in 1996 and 1997 before they can continue to talk..."
For mobile phone channel dealers, the profit period will be maintained until the end of 1997. After 1997, domestic mobile phones participated in market competition, the price of mobile phones dropped sharply, and the profit margin of middlemen was greatly compressed. In order to better control the market, manufacturers no longer rely on a single distribution agency system, and the role of middlemen was greatly suppressed.
Sheng Xin is now starting to transform. If Haitai wants to compensate for the profit losses in 1996 and 1997, Zhang Ke doesn't mind Jinhu withdrawing shares from Haitai; although he created the prototype of Haitai.
Xie Wanqing thought Zhang Ke was meant to give in, and she would rather do so, and said, "Since you have no objection, then I'll talk to Zhengtai?"
"Talk, talk, it's best to get some more money. Jinhu is short of money now." Zhang Ke said without any mind.
Zhang Ke asked Wanqing to send him home directly. It was still early, so he asked Wanqing to go upstairs to have tea; Zhang Zhixing and Liang Gezhen were at home at night, and they couldn't help complaining that Zhang Ke had stayed outside to eat when he returned to Haizhou.
Zhang Ke felt very guilty. Today he was forced to Ye Jianbin; Ye Jianbin was not a forceful person, but Shengxin Electric Appliances' first store was about to open, so Shengxin couldn't feel at ease.
Wan Qing sat down for a while, then said goodbye and left; Zhang Ke said that he would invite Ye Jianbin and others to come to visit his home in the near future and ask for some preparation at home.
Liang Gezhen said: "It's difficult for the family to turn around, aren't you afraid of neglecting them?"
"Accountant, please don't invite them to visit your home," Zhang Ke said with a smile, "Why do we change our house?"
Liang Gezhen didn't know how much assets she had for Zhang Ke, but since her husband Zhang Zhixing became the secretary-general of the listed government and was transferred to the main level, she had become interested in changing houses. After hearing Zhang Ke say this, she became interested.
Zhang Zhixing said impatiently: "The guest insisted on visiting at home, and the relationship was different. How could he care about this?" He also said, "You can't be careless at all. Ye Jianbin and the others have had different living habits from us since childhood. They are too casual and they won't get used to it."
"I said I didn't care, and I said I couldn't be too casual. I'd rather give me a standard," Liang Gezhen complained, "I still know the right way. It's rare that they all value Zhang Ke. I, a mother, will never smear him. Their parents are not governors or ministers, and at least they are still the secretary of the prefectural committee. When will you be the deputy mayor give us a long face? Then we will follow the deputy mayor to live in a villa?"
Zhang Zhixing smiled helplessly: "It's useless for you to use this to run. Mayor and secretary are not something I can do just want. Don't rush to count on Wulixi villa..."
Wulixi is the boundary river between Qianmen and Shatin West District. During the Republic of China, the river beach of Wulixi was a famous shanty town in Haizhou. After liberation, the west bank of Wulixi was included in the main urban area at that time. Some buildings such as the Chinese Medicine Hospital and People's Theater stood on the west bank. The river beach on the east bank was still a residential area. Although the living conditions improved after the reform and opening up, there were many people here and the residents were not moved out to rebuild, so it was impossible to make reasonable plans. Many buildings occupied the river channel. The waterway that was originally more than 20 meters wide was left at the section of the Chinese Medicine Hospital was less than ten meters away. During the rainy season, Wulixi rose water, and the river beach area on the east bank was often flooded.
If there is a particularly urgent place to renovate the old city of Shatin, it belongs to the river beach on the east bank. Further east is the corner of the bell tower, which belongs to the real old city.
"What Wulixi Villa? Is there a villa built there?" This was the first time Zhang Ke heard about this, and I'm afraid it was something I mentioned recently.
"Oh, Shatin's old city renovation involves thousands of households. Our city has never had such a large-scale relocation. It is another currency demolition. The housing prices of several commercial housing in the city have risen to 1,200,200, and the original compensation standard for demolition was a little low. Mayor Tang asked the developer to increase the demolition fee accordingly when acquiring the land... Jincheng Real Estate did not respond positively, but then proposed to clear Wulixi to build a villa, intending to sell it to the city leaders at a cost price. The so-called cost price is construction costs and demolition fees. In this way, no one in the city supports Tang Xueqian's proposal to increase the demolition fees of developers..."
After all, Liang Gezhen didn't care about the hardships of ordinary citizens. He said: "Dongtan's buildings are very dense and almost always take advantage of the situation. Even if the current compensation standards are used, the demolition cost is not low. The accountant in our bureau has calculated that even if Jincheng doesn't make a penny, the housing prices there will be two thousand..."
Jincheng Group sees that most government officials will only see their own interests and cannot experience the embarrassment and hardship of the demolition households. Although they are helpless, they can also see that capital forces control the interest classes and make contextual maps that affect local decisions. The strength of some government officials will easily be defeated. Moreover, in the next ten years, the role of capital will become more and more obvious, and the dependence between officials and businessmen will reach a peak. If Tang Xueqian wants to truly speak in Haizhou City, even if Zhou Fuming is overthrown, it must have enough means to deal with the huge interest classes and the capital forces behind these interest classes.
Zhang Ke curled his lips, ignored his mother's little calculations, and asked his father: "The resettlement housing project will not encounter resistance, right?"
"As long as there is no interest in all aspects, and the conflicts caused by demolition can be alleviated, the city has no resistance. The local government has made a quick decision and set it in Haihong Village east of Gongnong Road. There is only financial resistance. The first batch of 2,000 households will be resettled, and the investment in various municipal basic projects will be 20 million. Mayor Tang gritted his teeth and wanted to squeeze out the money, but where did your uncle's company raise so much money?"
In the 1990s, the mainland was still unfavorable to the pre-sale system of commercial housing, and it was quite difficult to make Hongyuan Company self-raise funds from beginning to end. The tightening cycle of macro-control has not yet passed, and the interest rates for commercial loans are extremely high. Even if Tang Xueqian can support it and lend money from banks, the financial costs will be extremely astonishing.
Financial costs will eventually be spread into housing prices, which will ultimately harm the interests of the demolition households.
Zhang Zhixing also said: "Mayor Tang thought of intercepting the demolition fees paid by the developer in the name of the municipal government, and the municipal government would come forward to invest in resettlement housing projects in a targeted manner..."
"I'm afraid those demolition companies will not agree..." In the 1990s, most of the demolition companies in Haizhou were state-owned enterprises, with relevant stakeholder departments, representing a huge interest class.
Zhang Zhixing smiled wryly and said, "This is one aspect. The forced demolition of the street market some time ago has caused a very bad social impact. The demolition households have great opinions on the city and do not trust them. Mayor Tang's proposal was boycotted by the demolition households in the west section of Shatin. The demolition households would rather let the demolition company take a break, but they were afraid that the city would embezzle the demolition fee to other places."
Zhang Ke smiled helplessly and asked, "How much money can Hongyuan Company raise now?"
"When it comes to Hongyuan, your uncle is also having a headache. The province has issued a document requiring the cleaning and rectification of public-private joint ventures. The Chengnan District Finance Bureau’s plan to increase capital by Hongyuan is short-lived. Although the province has no specific requirements, the Urban Planning Design Institute and Haijiandu have already proposed the requirement to withdraw the investment from Hongyuan, but I am afraid that there are others behind it who are working hard..."
Zhang Ke said: "It's good that this is the case. My uncle can at least get back control and there is no need to listen to others' fingers. But my uncle only has three or four million spare money in his hand, and there are problems with withdrawals, let alone raise funds for resettlement housing projects."
"Can Kumho withdraw funds?"
Zhang Ke shook his head: "Kumho's funds are stuck very tight..." However, thinking that Chintai Group intends to acquire Kumho's shares in Haitai, it should be able to sell them at a good price.
The hot sales and high prices of Ericsson 398 have made provincial agents like Haitai profit tens of millions in half a year. Kumho holds nearly 20% of Haitai shares and can share at least four million dividends this year. Although Shengxin's work focus has shifted, the continued growth of the mobile phone market will not stagnate. I am afraid that Chintai Group will also give a very optimistic prediction. Even if Ericsson has sufficient market exploration in Donghai Province this year, this brand can maintain an annual compound growth rate of at least 30% in Donghai Province. It does not consider the channel resources of big pets. Zhang Ke believes that there should be no problem for 145 million from Chintai Group.
