Brother, just how powerful is our family?

In March, spring comes.

The leadership team of Huai County has undergone a major reshuffle.

The county party secretary and county head were both promoted for their "outstanding performance in promoting the development of major industries and facilitating the transformation of the regional economy." The county party secretary was transferred to the position of executive vice mayor of Shenyang City, and the county head was transferred to the position of deputy director of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission.

They were replaced by two younger cadres.

This is a special arrangement at the national level, to equip Huanyu Group with a more capable, well-connected, and economically savvy leadership team for its future development.

On his first day in office, the newly appointed county party secretary led a team to conduct research at the chip industry park.

"President Qin, our purpose in coming here is very clear." The young county party secretary got straight to the point: "The county party committee and county government are the servants of Huanyu Group. Whatever you need, we will provide; whatever difficulties you encounter, we will solve."

Qin Feng shook hands with him: "Thank you for your support. We do have some needs—"

He listed several issues: the roads surrounding the industrial park need to be widened, the power supply needs to be increased, and the schooling of employees' children needs to be addressed...

"We'll give you a reply within a week." The county party secretary made the decision on the spot. "We've already completed the road expansion plan, and we're just waiting for your confirmation. As for electricity, the province has given special approval to build a new substation specifically to serve the industrial park. Regarding education, we plan to build an integrated school from kindergarten to high school next to the industrial park, which will be open for enrollment this September."

Such efficiency surprised even Qin Feng.

"The country attaches great importance to this project," the county party secretary said frankly. "To be honest, before I came here, the leaders specifically instructed me: Huanyu Group's chip industry is related to the country's technological strategic security. We must do everything we can to ensure its success and there can be no mistakes."

In April, Huai County is full of springtime charm.

Inside the chip industrial park, the silver-gray exterior walls of the factory buildings gleam in the sunlight.

However, the atmosphere in the conference room on the third floor of the industrial park's administrative center was in stark contrast to the bright spring sunshine outside the window.

On either side of the conference table sat senior executives of Huanyu Group and government officials from Shenyang City and Huai County.

This is a monthly joint meeting between government and enterprises, mainly to coordinate and resolve various issues in the development of the industrial park.

Qin Feng sat in the main seat, his expression focused.

He was wearing a dark gray suit today, without a tie, and his posture was relaxed but his eyes were sharp.

His genetically optimized body allowed him to maintain peak performance during meetings lasting several hours.

"The next topic: attracting investment to supporting enterprises in the industrial chain," said the director of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, who chaired the meeting. "The chip production capacity of Huanyu Group will be fully released in the second half of the year, at which time a large number of upstream and downstream supporting enterprises will be needed. We suggest that the municipal and county governments take the lead in organizing special investment promotion activities to attract relevant enterprises to settle in the city."

Qin Feng nodded: "This is a great suggestion. We have already compiled a list of potential partners, including leading companies in packaging and testing, material supply, and equipment maintenance. If these companies can build factories in Huai County or Shenyang, it will not only improve the industrial chain but also create more jobs."

He gestured to his assistant to distribute documents: "Preliminary estimates suggest that if we can attract 30 core supporting enterprises, it could directly create 50,000 jobs and indirectly stimulate 150,000. The boost to the local economy will be very significant."

The officials in attendance flipped through the documents, their eyes gleaming with excitement.

Fifty thousand direct jobs and 150,000 indirect jobs are an unimaginable gift for a prefecture-level city.

"Don't worry, President Qin, we will start this work immediately." The newly appointed Secretary of the Shenyang Municipal Party Committee stated, "The city has set up a special team, which I will personally lead. We will visit each of the companies you listed and talk to them one by one."

"There's another issue," Qin Feng changed the subject. "Recently, I've noticed that housing prices in Huai County are rising rapidly. Some properties have seen prices increase by more than 50% compared to the same period last year."

The meeting room fell silent.

"The chip industrial park has brought jobs and increased incomes, which is a good thing," Qin Feng continued. "But if housing prices rise without limit, and workers' increased wages are all used to pay mortgages, their living standards will not improve substantially. This goes against our original intention for investing."

He looked at the vice mayor in charge of housing and construction: "I hope the government can introduce policies to curb the rapid rise in housing prices. For example, provide special housing subsidies for employees of industrial parks, build talent apartments, or restrict speculative housing activities."

The vice mayor looked troubled: "President Qin, the real estate market has its own rules... and land transfer fees are an important source of local revenue..."

"I understand the government's difficulties," Qin Feng interrupted him. "That's why Huanyu Group is willing to provide support. We can fund the construction of a number of talent apartments, which can be rented to employees at cost price. At the same time, we can cooperate with the government to develop price-controlled housing projects."

He paused, then said firmly, "In short, my requirement is that housing prices should not become a stumbling block to the inflow of talent and a reduction in the quality of life. If necessary, Huanyu Group can intervene in the real estate market to stabilize prices."

That's a very weighty statement. With the financial resources of Huanyu Group, if they were to make a major foray into the Huai County real estate market, they would be fully capable of controlling price trends.

The officials exchanged glances, and finally the municipal party secretary nodded: "We understand President Qin's concerns. The city will study and formulate relevant policies to ensure that employees in the industrial park have housing and a place to live in peace."

"In addition," Qin Feng recalled something, "I suggest introducing Pang Donglai Supermarket. This company has a very good business model and service philosophy. If it can be established here, it will be beneficial to improving the level of local commercial services."

Pang Donglai, a Henan-based supermarket chain renowned for its "exceptional service" and "employee care," has become a business model. Its introduction to Huai County could indeed create a ripple effect.

"Well..." the director of the Commerce Bureau hesitated, "Pang Donglai has very high requirements for site selection, and they are very cautious about expansion. We contacted them before, but they didn't have a clear intention."

"We extended another invitation in the name of the government," Qin Feng said. "We told them that we were willing to provide venue support and offer preferential treatment in areas such as taxation. What we want to do is not just introduce a supermarket, but also a business culture and a service philosophy."

"Okay, let's talk about it again."

The meeting lasted for more than two hours, discussing a series of issues: transportation infrastructure, education and healthcare, environmental governance, public security, and so on. Qin Feng had clear ideas and solutions for each issue.

The meeting concluded at 4 PM. Officials left one after another, each with an excited expression—the partnership with Huanyu Group had given them a tangible prospect for development.

Qin Feng was about to return to his office when his assistant rushed in and whispered, "Mr. Qin, several guests have come to visit, saying they want to discuss cooperation with you. They... seem to be quite influential."
