Chapter 241 Good News

"What did the jeweler say? Is there any news?" Deputy Mayor Huang asked.

"Their representatives will come over for talks at noon. It has been initially agreed that if nothing else happens, their company will build the second largest processing base here."

Everyone present was overjoyed when they heard this.

The village director asked: "What company? How strong is it?"

Deputy Mayor Huang almost gave the village director a thumbs up, which was exactly what he wanted to know.

A strong jewelry company is more secure, at least it will not delay the entire project due to funding issues. With such a large industry transferred over, he naturally hopes that the sooner the better.

"Although Chow Sang Sang is not among the top three in terms of strength, it is still one of the top ten jewelry companies in the country."

The village director said nothing, for fear of showing that he had little knowledge.

Tell the truth! This is my first time hearing about this jewelry company.

He had a better impression of Chow Tai Fook.

Deputy Mayor Huang did his homework last night and at least got to know the larger jewelry companies.

He nodded and said, "Yes! This company is powerful."

He was relieved.

Who dares to underestimate a jewelry company that ranks among the top ten? Their annual profits are not even 10 billion, but several billion, which is many times the GDP of their town.

In China, many powerful jewelry companies seem to have the surname "Zhou".

For example, Chow Tai Fook, Chow Tai Sang, Chow Sang Sang, Chow Pak Fook, etc.

Sometimes, when many people purchase gold jewelry, they are confused when they see those jewelry stores and wonder if they have entered a copycat store.

In fact, they are all regular stores, and they are all big brands. It’s just that the brand names are a bit similar, which is really confusing.

Such a big company wants to build their second largest processing base here. It's perfectly normal to ask for one or two hundred acres of land. Is it even too small?

When the village director and others saw Deputy Mayor Huang saying this, they did not dare to question it.

"Are you arriving at noon? Do you want the village committee to help receive you?" The director had to ask something else.

Not to mention the village, even the town leaders want to receive VIPs of this level! It's just that Deputy Mayor Huang is too embarrassed to speak.

"Don't worry, wait until we have a good deal. If the talks fail, there is no need to entertain them." Zhang Yaohua shook his head slightly.

Someone nodded upon hearing this.

The truth is this.

Even if we haven’t reached an agreement, we can go back as we came!

Deputy Mayor Huang said: "It can't be like this. You should entertain or entertain, and the etiquette must be in place. Business cannot be done without kindness!"

The failure to negotiate this time does not mean that there will be no opportunities for cooperation in the future.

Zhang Yaohua smiled and said nothing. He understood what the mayor was thinking.

I don't want to offend those wealthy donors, especially in places where it is difficult to attract investment. The local parents and officials will be even more humble just for some investment.

However, Zhang Yaohua really meant what he just said. If the negotiation fails, they will become competitors in the future, so there is no need to be too polite.

"It depends on the situation!" Then, Zhang Yaohua finally added.

If the other person's attitude is not very bad, even if the cooperation is not successful, there is no need to make the relationship too rigid and appear uneducated.

Deputy Mayor Huang promised Zhang Yaohua that as long as the project is negotiated, land acquisition and other related procedures will be given the green light and will be resolved as quickly as possible.

There will never be any intentional carding.

He personally checks it, who dares?

Even Mayor Ye has to think twice. Not to mention that once Mayor Ye finds out, he will probably be even more anxious than him. After all, as long as he does a good job, he, the upright mayor, will also take credit, and it is also one of his political achievements.

Not only Mayor Ye, but also Secretary Li.

The first and second leaders are all watching, who dares to make small moves? Aren't you looking for death?

In addition, Deputy Mayor Huang also told the village director to let the village committee do a good job in collection work, do a good job in mass ideological work, etc.

Zhang Yaohua chatted at the village committee for a while and then received a call from the jewelry company.

"They're here, I'll pick them up." Zhang Yaohua stood up.

Deputy Mayor Huang said quickly: "Well! Go quickly! Don't keep people waiting."

The senior management of the jewelry company attaches great importance to this cooperation. On the one hand, it is because of the face of overseas Chinese Zhang Damao, and on the other hand, it is because of the gem mine.

Nowadays, the competition among jewelry companies is very fierce. After years of development, the well-known mines on the ground have become famous and their resources are increasingly depleted.

This is a problem for all jewelry companies.

Everyone is thinking about developing new mineral deposits. Whoever has more mineral resources will have a deeper foundation. Therefore, the competition for mineral resources has always been fierce.

It’s the same at home and abroad.

In order to compete for jewelry raw materials, major companies are fighting their brains.

Therefore, upon learning that someone had discovered a seabed mineral source, and that it was not difficult to develop, it immediately attracted the attention of the company's top management, and even held a high-level meeting overnight to formulate a long-term plan.

That is the plan for seabed mining.

In fact, some companies have already turned their attention to the ocean.

After all, there are only so many gem mines on land, and what can be developed has basically been developed. Those that cannot be discovered are probably not much more difficult to develop than those under the sea.

However, gem mines on the seabed are difficult to explore.

It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Mining conditions are gradually maturing.

The most typical one is diamond.

Compared with traditional underground mining, mining diamonds on the seabed is a new challenge and opportunity. This emerging mining method can not only increase diamond production, but also reduce the waste of mineral resources and environmental pollution.

The history of diamond mining on the seabed dates back to the 20s.

At that time, a diamond company in South Africa developed a device called a "vertical oscillator" that could mine diamonds on the seabed. This device creates shock waves on the seafloor, which are then reflected back to determine the location of the deposit.

By the 20s, with the continuous development of technology, some new seabed diamond mining technologies emerged, such as "underwater mining systems" and "submersible diamond miners". These technologies made seabed diamond mining more efficient and safer. .

At the beginning of the 21st century, countries around the world began to regard seabed diamond mining as an important strategic industry, strengthened the exploration and development of seabed mineral resources, and vigorously promoted the upgrading of seabed diamond mining technology and equipment.

Therefore, the technology for seabed mining is available now, so there is no need to worry at all.

Of course, let’s not talk about the sea that is too deep.

Not to mention mining for gems, even drilling for some oil is laborious.

"President Gao? Hello! I'm Zhang Yaohua." Zhang Yaohua came up to meet him and stretched out his hand.

The leading middle-aged man in a suit also smiled and stretched out his hand from a distance: "Yes! I am Gao Xiang, who is responsible for the company's contact with Mr. Zhang this time. He is..."

Then, introduce the more important company members around you to Zhang Yaohua.

"Hello everyone! Let's go to my house first."

This scene attracted many people to watch, including tourists.

Although everyone doesn't know much about it, they guess that Zhang Yaohua is going to make a big move again.

When I arrived at Zhang Yaohua's home, I was immediately greeted warmly.

That's what country people are like.

Anyone he didn't know passed by would be warmly invited to have a meal, let alone someone who came to cooperate with his son.

"Sister, there's no need to be busy, it's okay, it's okay." Seeing Zhang Yaohua's mother constantly bringing out all kinds of food to greet them, Mr. Gao couldn't resist. Everyone chatted with each other for a few more words before getting into the topic.

In fact, the main purpose of Mr. Gao's visit this time was to confirm the existence of the mineral source.

That is the premise of everything.

If what Zhang Yaohua said is true, we can talk about other things slowly.

It is not impossible to establish a large-scale processing base here. If their company has the financial resources and capabilities, it's just a small matter.

Where should the processing base be built?

Jewelry is not a big item and transportation is not difficult.

Besides, it's not particularly remote here.

"Mr. Zhang, this is an agreement. You can take a look at it first." Mr. Gao handed an agreement to Zhang Yaohua.

Zhang Yaohua took it and browsed it quickly.

There is not much content in it, mainly to ensure Zhang Yaohua's rights and interests.

If Zhang Yaohua wants to point out the location of the mineral source, he must first write it down clearly in black and white. Otherwise, if I take you to see the source of the mine, but in the end the jewelry company abandons you and develops it yourself, how will that count?

There is no such thing.

Even for large companies, it is not uncommon for them to go rogue.

It is even said that it is even more unexplainable if big companies act rogue.

Even foreign multinational companies often do this kind of thing. Anyway, they are not afraid of lawsuits and have strong financial resources, so they can just put it off! Let's see who can't stand it first.

Generally speaking, it is most likely the ordinary people who are unable to hold on first.

"Okay, let me tell you about a mine first. It is an aquamarine mine. The sea depth is only a few dozen meters, so it is easy to develop." Zhang Yaohua said.

Then, he signed the agreement.

Seeing Zhang Yaohua so happy, President Gao and others were stunned.

A group of them came over because they were afraid of making things difficult, so they even brought a lawyer from their company's legal department with them. Such negotiations usually don't last for three to five days? Even more than a month is not surprising.

However, how long had they been talking this time?

There was almost no bargaining.

This makes them somewhat uncomfortable.

"Any more questions?" Zhang Yaohua asked after seeing their expressions.

Mr. Gao came to his senses and shook his head quickly: "No problem!

Since Mr. Zhang is so sincere. Then I will be honest. As long as it is confirmed to be a gem mine, our company will immediately start a processing industry in your village. "

Aquamarine.

This is naturally very familiar to them.

Although not as good as jade, ruby, emerald, etc., the price and market are pretty good.

Zhang Yaohua turned on his tablet, opened a satellite map, determined a location, and zoomed in.

"Now! Here, you can send people to explore and confirm the authenticity."

"it is good!"

Mr. Gao stopped pretending and called immediately.

In fact, before they arrived, the company had already prepared the exploration team and was ready to go at any time.

The location provided by Zhang Yaohua is only more than 70 kilometers away from the land. It can be reached by ordinary ships in two or three hours under normal sailing, and even faster ones can reach it in less than two hours.

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry! Our exploration team is really professional. As long as there is indeed an aquamarine mine, there will probably be news in the afternoon."

Zhang Yaohua refilled the tea for everyone: "Don't worry, come, let's have tea. We will have dinner at my house later and wait for the news slowly."

Seeing that Zhang Yaohua was so calm, Mr. Gao was almost certain that the aquamarine mine was real.

This cooperation is basically a certainty.

Therefore, his attitude towards Zhang Yaohua became more and more cordial, and he had no objection to Zhang Yaohua's arrangements.

Soon after, Zhang Yaohua’s eldest brother-in-law and others came over.

Zhang Yaohua introduced it to Mr. Gao and mentioned the matter of contract processing.

"As long as the quality passes our company's testing, then there is no problem at all!" said Mr. Gao.

OEM processing!

Not to mention their company, even the top three giants still have OEM processing.

Contract processing is all about making some hard-earned money, so who can’t do it for you?

Therefore, Mr. Gao might as well give Zhang Yaohua this face.

But the premise is that the quality of the products they make is not too bad, at least it must pass.

"Mr. Gao, thank you so much." Zhang Yaohua's eldest brother-in-law and second brother-in-law quickly thanked him.

To others, it must be just some hard-earned money, but to them, it is overwhelming wealth. A little leakage between people's fingers is enough for them to make a fortune.

The person they are most grateful to is Zhang Yaohua.

We all know very well that the reason why people do processing for them is just for Zhang Yaohua's face. Besides, without Zhang Yaohua’s financial support, everything would be in vain.

During lunch, the eldest brother-in-law, who was not a big drinker, all toasted to Mr. Gao three times.

Deputy Mayor Huang did not leave, but stayed at the village committee to wait for news.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, news finally came from the exploration team.

is good news.

Sure enough, a large-scale aquamarine mine was discovered there. The raw aquamarine mine is of high quality and has high development value, but the specific reserves have not yet been fully explored.

"Mr. Zhang, let's start discussing the profit sharing in detail! You can sell out if you want. The price offered by our company will definitely satisfy you."

Their company hopes to pay a sum of money to buy it out directly.

But Zhang Yaohua is not in a hurry for money now. He still has a lot of money lying in the bank!

As a result, the two parties began to discuss the division in detail.

The village committee, Deputy Mayor Huang and others have received the message sent by Zhang Yaohua.

"It's confirmed that a jewelry processing base will be established in our village. The initial investment will be no less than 1.5 million." The village director announced the news excitedly.

Deputy Mayor Huang couldn't help but slap the table with excitement.

The initial investment is no less than 1.5 million, but what about later?

"Good good!"

This time, he can go back to the town government to take care of the matter.

"I'll go back to the town first. Tell Yaohua that the town government will hold a banquet for Mr. Gao and others tomorrow and ask them to show their respect." Deputy Mayor Huang said.

"Okay! I'll go find Yaohua later." The village director nodded.

Deputy Mayor Huang couldn't sit still, so he got up and returned to the town government to discuss the matter with Mayor Ye and Secretary Li.

As soon as the village director saw off the mayor, some villagers came up to ask about land acquisition.

Will it be levied or not? How much will it cost?

There is no definite news yet.

Many villagers have been thinking about this since last night, and some even suffered from insomnia.

"It's confirmed, the land acquisition price should be similar to the last time for the cannery." The village director told them.
