At the pinnacle of power: parachuted into your hometown as a leader right from the start!

"Xiao Jiang, how was it? Did I disturb your lunch break?"

Jiao Jianhua leaned back in his office chair, looking quite relaxed.

Jiang Feng immediately smiled and said.

"Chairman Jiao, it's my honor to have you call me. What do you mean by 'intruding'? I'm always available!"

Jiao Jianhua was amused by Jiang Feng's attitude.

"Haha, Xiao Jiang, your attitude makes me feel embarrassed to keep you in suspense any longer!"

Jiang Feng looked puzzled. Playing coy? What coyness? Could it be that Jiao Jianhua is also being transferred to Liaoning-Zhejiang Province?

"Chairman Jiao, I knew that if someone as busy as you called, it must be something important!"

Jiao Jianhua smiled slightly and then spoke directly.

"Yes, there is indeed something going on. It concerns some of CICC's restructuring plans, mainly involving the separation of international and domestic businesses. In the future, domestic business will be operated by two wholly-owned subsidiaries, while international business will be handled by one wholly-owned subsidiary."

"Our wholly-owned subsidiary, which is responsible for business in several northern provinces, is preparing to establish itself in your Liaoning and Zhejiang provinces."

Jiang Feng was slightly taken aback, then a look of joy appeared on his face.

This is really good news for him! Settling down in Liaoning and Zhejiang provinces? Does that mean he'll be settling down in their Yuanchang County? Could it be that this place is for him?

Well, although he knew the chances were slim, he couldn't help but ask anyway.

"Chairman Jiao, you're not suggesting that this wholly-owned subsidiary is planning to establish itself in our Yuanchang County, are you?"

Jiao Jianhua calmly shook his head.

"That's impossible, Xiao Jiang. You should understand that Yuanchang County is not suitable as a location for this company, whether in terms of transportation or infrastructure."

Jiang Feng nodded. That was the truth. Compared to Chunnan City and Bincheng, Yuanchang County had no advantages. Its only advantage might be that the land price was relatively cheap.

But for CICC, they really don't care if the land price is cheap!

"Haha, Chairman Jiao, that was a bit unrealistic of me!"

Jiao Jianhua nodded slightly.

"Yes, that's true to some extent. However, our subsidiary recently invested in a steel plant. This company is preparing to introduce new equipment to expand its capacity. One of the small branch plants will be spun off. Although it uses different steelmaking equipment than the main plant, as an experimental new plant, it will use internationally advanced new steelmaking furnaces."

"The estimated annual output is 500,000 tons, with an estimated annual output value of around one billion. What do you think of this factory? Are there any shortcomings?"

Jiang Feng's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know much about the steel industry, he was very clear about the jobs and related industries that such heavy industrial enterprises could drive!

One branch factory can provide employment for at least two thousand families in their county. If it involves related industries, it can create even more jobs!

Jiao Jianhua explained the matter so clearly that he understood what the other party meant!

"Chairman Jiao, as you know, Yuanchang County has cheap land and a high-quality coal industry, making it particularly suitable for this branch plant. I wonder if we could try to get them to include us in their consideration for the branch plant construction?"

Jiao Jianhua smiled slightly, knowing that Jiang Feng must have understood what he meant.

"Hey, Xiaofeng, you need to talk to the Liaoning-Zhejiang branch and Liaoning Steel about this. Although I'm the chairman, I'm not the chairman of the Liaoning-Zhejiang branch or Liaoning Steel!"

"By the way, you also know the chairman of this branch office. He's Yao Kaihua, the vice chairman who was previously in charge of the Asia-Pacific investment sector. I remember you were quite familiar with Vice Chairman Yao, weren't you?"

Jiang Feng's expression changed. Good heavens!

So they've paved the way? Are they just waiting for me to apply?

Yao Kaihua was very familiar to him; when Yao was in charge of investment business at the Hong Kong Island branch, the two had a very good working relationship in Hong Kong.

He earned a lot of foreign exchange for CICC and the country, and then Yao Kaihua was promoted to vice chairman, mainly responsible for the Asia-Pacific investment sector!

"Okay, Chairman Jiao, I understand. I will contact Vice Chairman Yao in a moment to complete the formal application."

Jiao Jianhua waved his hand slightly.

"Hey, this is a matter between your Yuanchang County and Liaoning-Zhejiang branches, why are you telling me this?"

"While we at CICC are very grateful for your previous reminders and business support, CICC has always operated according to strict standards and does not show favoritism!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiao, I just thought of something happy."

"Xiao Jiang, your self-control is still lacking!"

After saying that, Jiao Jianhua almost couldn't help but laugh.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Jiao Jianhua hung up the phone. After all, a state-owned enterprise leader of his caliber was extremely busy.

Meanwhile, Jiang Feng immediately contacted Yao Kaihua.

In Jiang Feng's memory, Yao Kaihua had always been a model of a highly educated elite, speaking concisely and to the point, and always dressed neatly and living an orderly life.

"Chairman Yao, hello, this is Xiao Jiang."

Upon hearing Jiang Feng's voice, Yao Kaihua's previously cold face immediately broke into a smile.

He waved his hand, signaling the others in the office to leave first.

"Haha, Xiaofeng, what brings you to call me?"

He deliberately teased Jiang Feng without revealing anything about Liaoning Steel.

Jiang Feng's face was full of smiles.

"I heard the organization has given you even more responsibilities, Chairman Yao, so I thought I'd congratulate you!"

Yao Kaihua smiled slightly, and then the two started chatting.

Soon, the construction of this branch factory, with an annual output value of around one billion, was basically finalized.

All that's left is for Jiang Feng to report to the county leaders and submit the application, and then for the people from Liaoning Steel and China Gold Branch to go down and make a round of visits, and that'll be it.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Feng smiled slightly. It seemed he needed to find a different way to use his political resources.

He didn't directly agree to anything, but he made sure Gu Yifei could see it. This was very useful, like dropping a carrot in front of a donkey—showing it to you, but not letting you use it!

Yeah, the way these scumbags act is surprisingly good in the workplace.

A simp would also be suitable, just with a different person to simp with!

Moreover, this time only CICC's network of contacts was exposed, without revealing its connections and relationships in Liaoning and Zhejiang provinces. This way, these connections can be used at more critical times.

With this in mind, Jiang Feng immediately began to make plans.

In the afternoon, after reporting the details of the case, Zhang Hao was also locked up with Qian Chunlin.

There won't be any breakthroughs at the moment, so it doesn't matter if the two are paired up.

As Wang Qiang passed by, he casually asked the policeman next to him a question.

"Is this the person who stopped the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission's car and forced him to ride in his return car?"

The police officer nodded, then glanced at Zhang Hao.

"Yes, that's him."

Wang Qiang said one sentence and then left.

"You've got guts."

Qian Chunlin was dumbfounded. He turned his head and looked at Zhang Hao with an incredulous expression.

He said the reason he was arrested so quickly was because this bastard stopped the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission's car.

"No, are you a 'killer'?"

Zhang Hao looked at Qian Chunlin and shrank back, his face full of fear.

"I had no idea the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission was such a high-ranking official!"

Qian Chunlin stared intently at Zhang Hao, but in the end, he couldn't suppress his temper.

Accompanying the punches and kicks were a barrage of vile and offensive insults!

"I'll fucking let you know..."

Meanwhile, Zhao Shaojun was thinking about how to get Jiang Feng to come out so that the two of them could chat and get to know each other!
