Chapter 187 Change of Wind Direction

Qindao, as the most economically developed region in eastern Shandong Province, is also one of the famous economic and tourist cities in China. It has also nurtured many well-known companies in the country, such as Haier, Haixin, Shuangxing, etc., and dolphins are also among the best among them.

Dolphin started out with freezer manufacturing. With its excellent quality and CCTV's advertising effect, it has become the reputation of the Chinese freezer king. Later, it formed a state-controlled listed group. After the decline of Bingxiong and Xiangxuehai, Dolphin embarked on a new path and developed diversified business strategies. It has entered many industries such as television, air conditioners, washing machines, small daily appliances, and electric vehicles. Especially in the field of electric vehicles, Dolphin was one of the early companies in Shandong Province to develop the electric vehicle industry.

Although dolphins have begun to decline at their peak, compared with the delicious duck that has just been established for only half a year, this dolphin group, which has a history of nearly 30 years, is really a behemoth.

Zhou Zhongguo has a natural favor for Qin Island. His thoughts when he was in charge of Langya in his previous life were also connected with Qin Island and joined the Panqin Island economic circle. Relying on Qin Island's economic advantages, he drove Langya's rise.

So although from the bottom of my heart, Zhou Zhongguo was a little dissatisfied with Cheng Dedong's thrust this time, if Qindao's company acquired and reorganized the electric vehicle factory, it would not have any hindrance to his philosophy.

Sitting there and pondering for a long time, Zhou Zhongguo finally didn't say anything clearly opposed.

Even if the Dolphin Group finally acquired it, it would not erase his political achievements in leading the restructuring of the electric vehicle factory.

Seeing Zhou Zhongguo's silent appearance, Cheng Dedong felt a secret feeling in his heart. This seemed to be the first time he had gained the upper hand in the confrontation with Zhou Zhongguo.

After all, he was the leader of a city. After a brief greeting, Zhou Zhongguo quickly put down the grudge in his heart and began to join in the conversation with the people of the Dolphin Group.

Dolphin Group began to enter the electric vehicle market in 2001 and has now set up two electric vehicle production bases in Qindao and Yinan. They have ambitions for the electric vehicle market in eastern Shandong.

However, when entering the Langya market, it was blocked by Tiger. Although dolphins are also a big company, in the minds of the people of Langya, they have a natural favorable attitude towards the products produced by Tiger. It is precisely because of this that the dolphins, who are unwilling to fail, rushed over without hesitation after hearing that the Langya Municipal Government was preparing to sell the electric vehicle factory and expressed their strong desire to acquire the Langya electric vehicle factory.

Although Tiger Land Rover's sales have been declining in recent years, Dolphins are very clear that Tiger Land Rover's technology is still very advanced. After all, they have experience in building cars. If they can acquire Tiger Land Rover and digest the technology they master, it will also be an improvement for the Dolphins themselves.

During the conversation with the dolphin, Zhou Zhongguo could feel that although their intention to acquire was very strong, his words and deeds still had a slight sense of superiority. Even as the mayor of Langya City, they were only polite to themselves on the surface.

After all, I still live in the economically developed Qin Island. In their eyes, the people in the surrounding cities are all natives in the countryside!

Overall, the two sides are just reaching a preliminary intention for cooperation. The specific situation must be finalized through further negotiations.

After returning to his office, Zhou Zhongguo stood by the window, lit a cigarette, smoking, and stared at the view outside the window, looking thoughtful, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind.

Bai Ningyuan still knew nothing about the changes that happened here. He still led his negotiation team to engage in a fierce tug-of-war with the people from the municipal government.

Just after both sides were verbal, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open. A staff member came to Liu Xiangqian and whispered to him a few times. After listening to the staff member's words, Liu Xiangqian's eyes were a little confused and surprised, but he still nodded.

"Sorry, there are some urgent matters that need to be dealt with. What should I take a break for the time being?" Liu Xiangqian raised his head, looked at Bai Ningyuan, showed a faint smile, and said calmly.

"It's okay, Mayor Liu, you have a lot of things to do every day. If you have something to do, just go and do it first!" Bai Ningyuan quickly said with a smile at Liu Xiangqian.

After hearing this, Liu Xiangqian nodded to Bai Ningyuan and everyone around him, then stood up and left the conference room. Bai Ningyuan and others looked at each other, and also got up to come to a small room prepared for them, and started discussing again.

In just half an hour, a staff member came over and knocked on the door: "Hello, Boss Bai, Mayor Liu and the others are ready, just waiting for you to pass!"

Hearing this, Bai Ningyuan and others quickly got up, rubbed their stiff faces, cheered up and returned to the conference room again.

As soon as he entered the door, Bai Ningyuan felt that everyone's eyes were instantly concentrated on him. He smiled and nodded slightly, and then sat down in his respective positions with Tang Xinzhen and others.

After the negotiations started again, Bai Ningyuan suddenly felt keenly from the other party's words that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong.

Although their faces still had a faint smile as before, their smiles were a little distant in Bai Ningyuan's eyes.

Even the words said during negotiations seemed to have a bit of perfunctory taste.

Bai Ningyuan subconsciously turned his head and looked at Tang Xinzhen and others. Although he didn't say anything, he had already understood from each other's eyes and realized that the strange thing was not just himself.

Thinking about Liu Xiangqian's departure before, Bai Ningyuan couldn't help but frowned slightly. He vaguely felt that something must have happened during the period when Liu Xiangqian left.

But what exactly happened that made Liu Xiangqian's attitude suddenly become very different, and Bai Ningyuan could not think of it.

This feeling made him feel a little irritated, as if things were suddenly out of control.

Not only him, but even the negotiation team under Bai Ningyuan was full of frustration at this time.

No matter what they said at this time, the people in the government were full of official words and clichés, without any actual things, which made them not know what to say for a moment.

No one is a fool, and from the other party's attitude, it can be seen that something is wrong.

In the conference room, I suddenly fell into an embarrassing silence.

"Mayor Liu, I suddenly thought of some new ideas and felt that it was necessary to discuss with my team first. I think it would be better to go here for today's negotiations first and continue tomorrow. How about it?" Bai Ningyuan suddenly spoke, saying neither humbly nor arrogantly, breaking the silence.

"Okay, then we are waiting for news from Mr. Bai at any time!" Liu Xiangqian stood up, said politely with a calm smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to Bai Ningyuan.

After polite handshake, Bai Ningyuan and others didn't want to stay for a moment, so they turned around and left the conference room. At the moment of closing the door, Bai Ningyuan subconsciously turned his head and saw a sneered face in his glance...
