015. Seventy million is still free.
While having a drink with Chen Zhengnan, Chen Guobin did not forget to mention some interesting things from the past and appropriately processed them artistically, which greatly activated and relaxed the atmosphere.
He Lili giggled from time to time, and there was one sentence that was combined. Chen Zhengnan also relaxed a lot, and he continued a few words from time to time, and even occasionally showed a rare smile, which surprised Chen Guobin and He Liping, but they both pretended to be ignorant, and later they witnessed several similar miracles.
It turns out that he can laugh too.
After a while, the father and son's faces were already flushed, but their minds were barely awake, but the conversation was much more generous and almost unrestrained, and the content gradually turned to some real problems. He Liping gradually couldn't handle it, but she didn't feel overwhelmed at all. He Liping was very happy from the bottom of her heart that the father and son could have such a happy conversation.
Chen Guobin failed to help He Liping clean up the mess, but was driven to lean on the sofa in the living room and continued with Chen Zhengnan's previous topic.
"Guobin, thank you for your hard work some time ago. You have been running a lot for the upgrade of the core provincial highway in our county." As he said that, Chen Zhengnan naturally talked about the road and sincerely expressed his gratitude as a local official. Although this person is his son at present, Chen Zhengnan still had a little complaint in his heart. This son, who "want his wife but not his mother", came to the county town several times during this period, and did not say hello to his family. It was comparable to Dayu's three-time flood control and inseparable from the house.
"Dad, why are we doing so many things we have to say?" Chen Guobin pretended to sank his face slightly, "This was originally my job."
"Ha!" Chen Zhengnan laughed at himself, "I'm so disgusting." He paused for a moment and asked casually: "Yaqin is still busy with work recently?"
"Oh, I almost forgot." Chen Guobin smiled apologetically, "When I called Yaqin in front, she asked me to say hello to her parents on her behalf. Alas, Yaqin just took office recently and was very busy with a big stall of work. Even eating had to be stuck. I didn't want to say much about her. On May Day holiday, Yaqin and I will come to see you parents together." He was helpless and found that it seemed natural to help his wife cover up, even if it was just a nominal wife.
"Well... don't have any ideological burden. Just come here when it's convenient." Chen Zhengnan's face was casually unanimous, and then he was a little serious: "Guobin, Yaqin's identity is quite special. As her husband, you should be more considerate and cooperate more, and don't behave casually. She is a woman and needs to handle so much work every day, not to mention the place in Pingjiang...ah!"
"I know." Chen Guobin didn't argue much, and responded readily, "But Yaqin is still very capable, I believe she can handle the situation."
Chen Zhengnan nodded slightly and changed the subject: "This time, Yaqin may have some ideas in order to compete for the upgrade indicators of provincial highway upgrades, right?"
"It's okay, I've made it clear to her." Chen Guobin was very relaxed.
“…”
The two continued to talk about the road issues.
In fact, Chen Zhengnan has always attached great importance to transportation construction. After years of long-term efforts, the popularity of paved roads in Xiangyin is among the best in the city.
Chen Zhengnan has been touching Chen Guobin's rapid progress some time ago. At this time, while talking, Chen Zhengnan couldn't help but secretly say that his son's professional ability is undoubtedly very excellent, and there are many ideas beyond his professionalism. The ideas he blurted out are always particularly novel, which made Chen Zhengnan more and more impressed, and he was deeply moved by the positive impact of the accident caused by the poisoning accident.
Chen Zhengnan had no doubt that his son was truly mature now, even more so than many people in his forties. He felt quite relieved for a moment, and his grudges were half gone. At least, this son would not need him to worry much in the future, leaving only the eldest daughter who still insisted on staying in the poor valleys in the western part of the province to teach.
"Xingxiang Expressway?" When Chen Guobin raised this topic casually, Chen Zhengnan immediately became a little serious and looked at it in surprise.
"Yes!" Chen Guobin nodded, and then vividly explained the highway's rhetoric, but it was just a form of chat.
Chen Zhengnan did not interrupt him. After listening carefully with his hands in his chest, he continued to think about it for a while, and finally expressed his opinion calmly: "This idea is very bold and courageous, but there are still many problems to be solved. For example, the current system has a considerable resistance to new things, and it is very expensive to build highways and the financial burden is very large. It may be unrealistic to have to build one mind on the left and right."
Chen Guobin was also very surprised. The father's keenness was extraordinary. He said seriously: "It is indeed difficult! But if a unit with courage and strength dares to take the initiative to shoulder heavy burdens, become a pioneer in road construction, fully drive the situation, and force other units that are not very active to show their enthusiasm, it may still work. For units that are prone to passiveness and sluggishness, they must often lead their noses. Once they get used to walking, they will get used to leaving."
Chen Zhengnan said with fun: "But 700 million is definitely not a small amount. Although Xiangyin's economic level is pretty good, the fiscal budget is quite tight. Not to mention 700 million, it is difficult to even free up 70 million."
"It's better to be freed for 70 million, right?" Chen Guobin smiled without comment.
Chen Zhengnan was stunned for a moment and immediately laughed: "If you only need to invest 70 million, you can promote the project of this highway, so that even if you sell the pot, you can still get the fragrance."
"What about 100 million?" Chen Guobin took a little serious.
Looking at the expression on his face, Chen Zhengnan didn't feel that this was just a joke. He was much more serious immediately. He didn't say anything for the time being, and he quickly started to think about it in his mind.
Although the two of them had just chatted casually before, they suddenly jumped into the critical stage of major decisions, which was a deep mutual trust and tacit understanding that was difficult to describe. Through the eager and in-depth conversation that had never been seen before, they all felt very surprised that the other party had great courage and extraordinary insights. This was a new understanding between father and son almost at the same time. In fact, the closer they were, the more likely they would not understand each other for a long time. Like the large amount of memories of the past left in Chen Guobin's mind, the more they could not compare to this intimate conversation, which allowed him to understand Chen Zhengnan so quickly. Chen Zhengnan also had similar feelings, but it was impossible for him to know that the son was "dropped".
Finally, Chen Zhengnan spoke, saying solemnly and firmly: "If you are sure to drive this project, 100 million can be freed!"
Chen Guobin had a little more respect. Such a serious answer was not just perfunctory, but a full reflection of Chen Zhengnan's high courage and responsibility. Suddenly, Chen Guobin had a strong desire to build this expressway that was originally just randomly conceived. This not only infected him because of Chen Zhengnan's courage, but also because of the existence of such a courageous figure. It is the key to breaking all difficulties and truly driving the situation.
Chen Guobin said firmly: "Then this road will definitely be built!"
"Tell me about your financing plan." Chen Zhengnan smiled relaxedly, and had a very tacit understanding.
Chen Guobin was slightly surprised and didn't say much nonsense, and directly threw out the plan he had imagined: "...... Establishing a holding company based on the Xingxiang Expressway project can consider raising 400 million yuan from the stock market, so that it only needs to raise another 300 million yuan. As for the attractiveness of the holding company, it is mainly because it is the first expressway in Nanhu Province, which is a very important gimmick. At the same time, the gimmick of Xiangyin taking over the industrial transfer pioneer of the provincial capital should also be exaggerated, so that the impression of traffic volume of this expressway can be significantly strengthened. After all, the main benefits of the holding company will come from tolls, and the level of industry development is the main guarantee of tolls. To successfully raise funds, potential shareholders must see a clear prospect."
Chen Zhengnan nodded and interjected at the right time: "This requires a very high level of publicity."
"Yes." Chen Guobin nodded, "There must be a high-level publicity team. However, as long as you are determined and think of more solutions, this problem can be solved. Carefully study and analyze the market psychology, and at the same time fully understand and be good at using various media means to properly build momentum and guide, that's fine."
"I believe in you." Chen Zhengnan's eyes were full of trust.
Chen Guobin felt warm and continued to talk: "As for the remaining 300 million, there are actually many channels. However, in order to fully drive the project, the Xiangyin County Government must pay out a considerable amount of funds. This is the basis of its determination and sincerity as a pioneer. It must be visible and touched by others, so that it will not feel that it is just a castle in the air. I think it is appropriate to take out 100 million. And if this kind of display of determination is not taken into consideration, Xiangyin can do not pay a penny."
Chen Zhengnan refused to comment: "What about the remaining 200 million?"
"One hundred million of them are borrowed from banks. Xiangyin is not a poor county, and the credibility index is still very high." Chen Guobin said in an orderly manner: "As for the other 100 million, it is mainly to drag all parties into the water. We should do more activities and do more work, so that the Lingyang Municipal Government, Xingcheng County Government and the Provincial Department of Transportation will all contribute to the honor of repairing the first expressway in the province."
"If it weren't for dragging them into the water, there would be no need to look for them for the past 100 million, right?" Chen Zhengnan smiled.
Chen Guobin also smiled: "Only by investing money, you will be proactive. This road is cross-regional and the situation is very complicated. Without their close cooperation, it will be difficult to fully carry out the work."
"Ha ha……"
He Liping was busy in the kitchen for a long time before she finally finished tidying up. Although her arms were a little sore, her heart seemed particularly warm, especially when she heard the bursts of laughter that came from time to time from the living room, which was so precious.
When she walked to the living room after washing her hands, the father and son were already smiling and putting Xingxiang Expressway on the formal agenda.
"Guobin, you will have to work hard for a while in the future. As long as it is indeed feasible, I can move at any time." Seeing He Liping coming over, Chen Zhengnan immediately ended the conversation on the expressway plan. He Liping was also tactful and did not ask much.
"I can do it." Chen Guobin replied firmly, looked at He Liping with a brilliant face, patted the sofa beside him, and said enthusiastically: "Mom, thank you for your hard work. Come and sit between me and my dad, let's watch TV together!"
"Okay." He Liping responded happily, feeling relieved all over her body. This long-lasting dream of sharing the joy of family suddenly came true in an instant.
