Nominal: Energy sector enters Handong, breaking the deadlock

Qin Weiguo held his teacup, but forgot to drink it.

Zhou Mingyuan held the pen, hovering it over the notebook, unable to drop it.

Sha Ruijin leaned back in his chair, his hands clasped over his abdomen, listening intently.

Music-powered pig farming?

How novel!

How could a project I brought myself be bad?

Zhang Hanbang became more and more excited as he spoke, waving his hands in the air.

"Pigs raised listening to piano music are in an extremely pleasant mood. Their endocrine system is in perfect harmony. Pork grown under these conditions has firm meat and extremely even fat distribution, exhibiting a snowflake-like marble pattern."

Tian Guofu's eyes widened. "Mr. Zhang, what's the point of this?"

He thought to himself, "It's not like I'm raising a pet pig."

It's completely useless.

Zhang Hanbang turned the page with a laser pointer. "Secretary Guofu, you've really hit the nail on the head."

In other words, the pork produced in Hanbang can be sold at the price of imported beef, directly boosting revenue.

Then, Zhang Hanbang's voice rose eight octaves.

"Leaders, comrades, what is this called?"

This is what we call high-end agriculture.

This is called industrial upgrading.

Our vision at Hanbang Agriculture is to become a world-class pig farming enterprise, leading a new trend in music-based pig fattening.

After finishing the last sentence.

Zhang Hanbang took two steps back, turned around, and bowed deeply.

clap clap clap!

Everyone felt like they were listening to gibberish, but they still clapped along.

If it weren't for Sha Ruijin's introduction, Zhang Hanbang, still the CEO of a listed company, would definitely have been treated as a big swindler and beaten out.

The group of leading cadres in Yantai City looked at each other.

Pigs listening to Mozart?

What does a pig know about Chopin?

With that level of deception, he could make a fortune telling stories under a bridge.

It completely humiliates everyone's intelligence.

Qin Weiguo was filled with doubt.

Could this person be a scammer?

But then I thought about it again.

These are the people that Sha Ruijin brought.

The project was personally selected by Secretary Sha.

Who would dare to utter a single word of dissent at this time?

Sha Ruijin tapped his fingers twice on the table.

Who cares what music they listen to, who cares if it's snowing or colorful?

The investment of several small goals is written in the contract.

The slogan for agricultural revitalization is resounding.

It has hype, investment, and scale.

It can be featured in newspapers, on television, and produce political achievements.

This is a perfect project.

"Great. Excellent." Sha Ruijin looked around. "Scientific farming, innovative concepts. Breaking away from the traditional dirty and chaotic approach, and taking a high-end route. Mr. Zhang's idea is very much in line with the current industrial transformation direction of Handong."

The provincial party committee leader has set the tone.

Splash splash splash splash.

The entire conference room erupted in thunderous applause.

Qin Weiguo clapped his hands so hard they were red, "President Zhang's insight is brilliant. Secretary Sha's vision is superb. With this project, our Yantai agriculture will definitely be able to make a remarkable comeback."

Zhou Mingyuan echoed, nodding vigorously, "This is absolutely a miraculous project that fills the gap in our Yantai agriculture. Mr. Zhang's technology, combined with our Yantai resources, is a powerful combination."

Amidst a chorus of praise.

Tian Guofu stuffed another piece of dried sweet potato into his mouth.

After taking a couple of bites, I couldn't resist. "Mr. Zhang!"

Tian Guofu spoke slowly.

All eyes in the room were drawn to it.

Tian Guofu patted the sweet potato residue off his hands and said, "You pigs listen to foreign music every day. Aren't you being a bit of a Western worshipper?"

How about we arrange some of our Handong Bangzi opera for you?

It's down-to-earth, right? The flesh that grows there might even be more chewy.

These words were spoken.

The atmosphere in the meeting room changed.

Some people were looking down, their shoulders shrugging, trying to suppress a laugh.

"Secretary Guofu, that's not impossible either. You're also welcome to come to Yantai City to teach our pigs and tell them stories." That was all Zhang Hanbang could say.

Let's flatter Tian Guofu.

Then, he looked to Sha Ruijin for help.

Sha Ruijin's face darkened. "Comrade Guofu, what are you talking about?"

Art knows no borders.

Science and technology also have no borders.

We must have an open mind and embrace all advanced ideas.

Tian Guofu shrugged, picked up his teacup, drank some water, and shut up completely; his goal had been achieved.

Zhang Hanbang is nothing but a complete conman.

Sha Ruijin turned to Qin Weiguo and said, "Comrade Weiguo, the project has now been finalized."

The site will be that old, bankrupt farm owned by your city. Mr. Zhang and I both agree that the surrounding land should be included in the land allocation."

"Secretary Sha, what do we need to do?" Qin Weiguo was thinking about what benefits the municipal party committee and government, especially the people of Yantai City, could gain.

"A government-enterprise partnership. You provide the land, infrastructure, and equity. Mr. Zhang will provide the capital and technology." Sha Ruijin waved his hand. "Mr. Zhang, what are your requirements? Feel free to mention them."

Zhang Hanbang tapped the table with his index finger. "I only have one requirement: speed. I hope the project can be implemented as soon as possible, and the pigs can be ready for market as soon as possible, creating more social value and helping the surrounding farmers get rich together."

Qin Weiguo immediately stood up straight and solemnly stated, "Secretary Sha, rest assured, our municipal party committee and government will fully cooperate and give the green light all the way, and will not delay the project's implementation."

Secretary Sha, General Manager Zhang, when will the contract be signed?

Who cares if pigs listen to music? As long as it's pig farming and an investment, it's welcome.

The current concern is that if we don't sign the contract, other cities will snatch it away.

Zhang Hanbang stood up, took the briefcase from his female secretary, and took out the company seal. "Secretary Sha, leaders, once the contract is drafted, we can sign it now. We can break ground tomorrow."

Qin Weiguo excitedly grasped Zhang Hanbang's hand, "President Zhang, if you sign now, the Yantai Municipal Party Committee and Government will provide all the preferential treatment we can."

Iwata City's execution capabilities reached their peak at this moment.

The efficiency of on-site work is astonishing.

They always carry the company seal and official stamp with them.

A portable printer was brought in.

The agreement text was printed out on the spot.

A thick stack.

The government and business representatives signed and stamped their documents right there at the meeting table.

One red clay imprint after another was pressed down.

Under the witness of Sha Ruijin, Zhang Hanbang and the Yantai Municipal Party Committee and Government signed a contract.

There's absolutely no need to go to the government service hall.

An hour earlier, Qin Weiguo had made a phone call, and the heads of various administrative agencies were waiting in the next room.

Staff from the Yantai City Administration for Industry and Commerce were already waiting outside the door.

The project has been officially named Yanlin Livestock Farm Co., Ltd. of Yantai City.

The plans for the two major areas are clearly defined.

A 160-mu (approximately 10 hectares) breeding area and a 19-mu (approximately 1 hectare) organic fertilizer processing area.

Integrated farming and animal husbandry, meeting environmental standards.

The plan was presented in a very elaborate and impressive manner.

It took less than an hour in total.

All business licenses and land use pre-approval procedures have been completed.

The business license was then handed over to Zhang Hanbang.

That's rocket speed!

They gave Sha Ruijin plenty of face.

Zhang Hanbang held the business license in both hands, showed it to her, and handed it to the beautiful secretary.

Then, grasping Sha Ruijin's hand tightly, she said, "Secretary Sha, the business environment in Handong is excellent. With a leader like you, our company feels completely at ease about investing."

Could you give us a prompt?

Having a leader suggest a term will give you the confidence to establish yourself in Handong in the future.
