Chapter 709 Hurricane's Persistence
"You have a routine meeting with Director Zhao and other company executives at 10 a.m. to discuss the company's current development plan. After the meeting, Minister Huang will want to report to you individually on the company's current financial situation.
There is a reporter interview at noon, and Liang Dian and the administrative department will have a meeting in the afternoon to discuss the company's current talent training and reserve cadre ladder, as well as the current company's middle-level management position rotation system. Go to the headquarters building construction site at 3 p.m. and have a dinner with Mayor Qian at 7 p.m."
Sitting in his office, Yang Dongxu, who was immersed in the documents selected by Wang Qing, listened to his secretary Sun Yi reporting on his schedule for the day.
After the company was reorganized, most of the company's affairs were currently managed by Executive Director Zhao Yu. After Huang Ying was transferred back from Zhou Ya to be the Minister of Finance of Hurricane Construction, Yang Dongxu, who was more assured of the money bag, began to slowly delegate power to the company's senior management.
So most of the things he did every time he came back were just meetings, and reviewing the more important documents selected by Wang Qing, as well as some documents that must be signed.
"Let Director Zhao do the interview at noon. The afternoon meeting topics will be separated, otherwise there will not be enough time. Please notify the Human Resources Department to discuss the company's talent training and cadre reserve issues first.
As for the rotation arrangement of middle-level management, we will discuss it with the Administration Department tomorrow. The inspection of the construction site in the afternoon will also be postponed to tomorrow. I have something to do in the afternoon." Yang Dongxu looked at the documents in front of him, while eliminating the things he could postpone in his schedule, and staggered some meetings that might take more time.
"This." Sun Yi looked a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Yang Ye looked up at his secretary.
"This interview with reporters was a request from the municipal government. It is said that it is to create a new era of economic development in the Magic City, so it may be better for you to accept the interview yourself." Sun Yi organized her words and said.
In fact, she basically did not need to ask Yang Dongxu to exclude some interviews that could be eliminated. She still understood her big boss, who would not meet and work with her for more than two months a year.
But this interview was obviously different from the previous ones. It was not just the person in charge of the Anxie Economic Column Program, or some newspaper deputy editors, but the director of Shanghai Satellite TV personally contacted him, and the municipal government also called to negotiate.
The other party showed great sincerity and did not inform Yang Dongxu when to go to the TV station for the interview, but said that he would make a time arrangement when he came to Shanghai to handle work, so Sun Yi put this matter in today's schedule and took out Yang Dongxu's lunch break to do this.
"Let Director Zhao negotiate again. He can take over the interview. If not, he can be postponed." Yang Dongxu raised his eyebrows, then lowered his head and continued to read the documents in his hand.
He naturally understood what the Shanghai government meant. As the current Shanghai investment is not the largest but definitely ranked, the boss of two giants, Hurricane Construction and BMW Automobile Company, is an unquestionable wealthy businessman.
The Shanghai government has always been very good to him, and also wants to establish him as a benchmark and representative, setting an example for others while also showing other investors the superior investment environment and development potential of Shanghai.
After all, although Hurricane Construction was a giant a few years ago, its assets have increased many times in the past few years of development in Shanghai. BMW has achieved amazing results since it settled in Shanghai.
As long as Yang Dongxu accepts the interview and directly makes him an outstanding representative of the new generation of young entrepreneurs, everyone can easily understand these things after knowing his deeds, and then use facts to add glory to Shanghai.
Yang Dongxu has gained fame, and Shanghai has attracted investment attention. Everyone can say that they have what they need. However, the Shanghai government obviously has not considered one problem, that is, Yang Dongxu does not want to step on the stage so early, or does not want to be exposed to the public so early.
Looking at Yang Dongxu who was bowing his head to handle documents, Sun Yi bit her lip. In fact, she really wanted to remind her boss that it is better to maintain a good relationship with the government. Things that benefit everyone should be actively accepted instead of being rejected directly without giving face.
You must know that with the start of the construction of the Hurricane headquarters building, other real estate companies that were originally jealous of Hurricane Construction's early land grabbing in Pudong have been making small moves recently.
Among them, several plots of land where Hurricane Construction was already planning and constructing were actually being urged to pay in and start construction. Many people in the entire company felt an invisible pressure.
And this pressure obviously did not come from here and from the company that had already stabilized, but from outside the company, not only from competitors, but also from the attitude of the municipal government.
In fact, the municipal government only greeted and arranged this interview this time, and also meant to show its attitude and kill these unhealthy trends. It also made Yang Dongxu, a businessman who invested heavily in the Magic City, feel at ease, but his big boss just rejected it directly, which undoubtedly meant that he took people's kindness for granted.
"Let's arrange it according to what I said. I will communicate with Mayor Qian in person during dinner tonight." Yang Dongxu, who did not raise his head, seemed to feel Sun Yi's hesitation and continued to look at the documents without raising his head and spoke.
Although Sun Yi felt that it was a bit of an exaggeration to communicate directly with Mayor Qian about such a matter. But since her boss seemed to have realized the problem, she stopped talking, closed her schedule, and left the office to make adjustments and arrangements for the meeting.
In the morning's routine meeting of senior management, in addition to Yang Dongxu's absence during this period to understand the current operation of the company, it was also necessary to discuss the use of several plots of land.
At the beginning of real estate development, the opening of commercial houses was actually far greater than that of residential houses, and there was no division of school district houses at all.
The difference between Hurricane Construction and other real estate is that housing construction is the least in the company's engineering construction. Hurricane Construction focuses on office buildings and scenic resorts. With the West Lake Scenic Area, Xinghai Hotel and Sanwan Resort as examples, Hurricane Construction has an absolute advantage in the latter.
The purpose of this meeting is mainly to build housing construction area. With the continuous deepening of reform and opening up, Shanghai, one of the municipalities directly under the central government, has welcomed more and more outsiders.
At present, the settlement in Shanghai is not as strict as in later generations. Basically, you can transfer your household registration by buying a house. Therefore, many far-sighted people want to buy a house in Shanghai to settle down after saving some money. Therefore, the municipal government has urged Hurricane Construction to start building residential land in its hands recently.
The Shanghai government has a relatively complete urban planning. After auctioning some commercial land, it will auction some residential land in the surrounding areas to make urban construction more reasonable.
Sometimes, when taking a large area of residential land, some developers also need to promise to build a certain number of square meters of residential houses. In recent years, Hurricane Construction has developed commercial land rapidly, but residential land development has not kept up.
"Let's optimize and arrange it reasonably, develop the residential land around the popular commercial area, and delay the sale as much as possible.
Try not to sell it if you can rent it. The housing price in Shanghai is far from what it should be, and we don't lack funds to cash out the real estate in our hands." Yang Dongxu thought for a while and said.
As he became more mature, he began to consider issues from the perspective of a businessman rather than from the perspective of a poor peasant.
The bottom line of his decision-making is that he will never delay the wages of migrant workers and that there will be no problems with the construction. As for the problem of always selling the properties at a reasonable price.
If the government had not done it intentionally and exchanged resources, he would not have stood on the opposite side of the increasingly hot real estate market and acted as a retrograde. Besides, even if he wanted to do it, it would be impossible. In the face of major events, Hurricane Construction, which seems to be strong now, is not good enough and will be crushed into slag in an instant.
"Okay." Zhao Yu nodded.
Zhao Yu was actually relieved by Yang Dongxu's increasingly rational management of the company. As for the bottom lines that his boss insisted on, he seemed to be honest and naive, but he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. Therefore, as he got into the role more and more, he put away his previous little thoughts and worked hard for the company.
"There is another thing. None of our properties have been included in the regulations on the common area. What do you think of this?" Zhao Yu said after making a record of the matter.
"Common area?" Yang Dongxu was stunned for a moment, and Li Chaoren's figure flashed in his mind.
Changhe Real Estate has already started to rank third in mainland real estate. He knew this. After all, Hong Kong investment in the mainland has been very hot in recent years, and Changhe is one of the representatives.
But he really didn't know that real estate began to implement the common area, but it didn't matter whether he knew it or not. When Changhe Real Estate entered the mainland real estate, this matter was obviously inevitable, because this was one of the few things that Li Chaoren complained about.
"Don't worry about this, sell it according to the actual use area of the house." Yang Dongxu said after thinking about it.
"This." Zhao Yu's face changed. He felt that his boss was steady just now, but now he was a little impulsive.
You know, although the common area is a bit insidious, it is very popular among peers. Many real estate developers have already started using it. Hurricane Building's boycott of this matter will undoubtedly appear a bit different in the same industry.
"We don't care whether others use this or not, but Hurricane Architecture will definitely not use it. Just calculate it based on the actual housing area and use this as one of the company's promotional points.
At the same time, highlight the quality of our building, the fashionable layout and the prime location, and also promote the services of the property company. With such good quality, such good design and service, it is reasonable that the price is a little higher, right?"
"This is not a problem. Our family has always been on the route of boutique communities, and more than half of them are luxury communities." Li Yu nodded.
Although not having a common area seems a bit different, it is indeed a good choice to use this as a promotional slogan. After all, users are not stupid, and no one is willing to spend their own money to buy public facilities.
