Chapter 332 Xijiang Wanlong’s acquisition intention

"Well, that's fine. I'll ask Manager Dong to help you make arrangements later."

Hu Yang didn't plan to go directly to the racecourse. He owns two properties here. Dong Qi is usually responsible for arranging personnel for cleaning and maintenance. He just came back and planned to go home to take a look.

As they talked, the group of people got into their cars and headed to the city.

Halfway there, Hu Yang's phone rang. When he picked it up, it was Wu Di. Wu Di is Wu Maosheng's father and is now the leader of the province.

"Yang Yang, I heard from Maosheng that you will be back in the next two days?"

"Uncle Wu, can I come back for Amao's wedding? The plane just landed. I'm in the car now and heading into the city."

Hu Yang has always respected Wu Di, and he still calls him "Uncle Wu" as before.

"Then it's a coincidence that I made this call... Well, are you free now? If you are, please come to my office. I have something to tell you."

Wu Di didn't say much on the phone, but judging by his tone, it seemed like he had something important to do.

"Okay, I'll go over now and see you later."

Hu Yang hung up the phone and glanced at Tian Sichun beside him and Lin Yan in the front row.

"Assistant Lin, I have some things that need to go to the province. You and Sichun go with Manager Dong first, and he will make arrangements. I will go find you during dinner in the evening."

Hu Yang then called Dong Qi and found a place to park in front.

"Mr. Hu, I will ask them to follow you. I will send these guests to the racecourse first, and we will have dinner there in the evening."

There is a villa specially set aside by Hu Yang at the racecourse. When he is not in Xijiang, it will not be used by anyone except for regular maintenance.

"Okay, I'll go over there in the evening."

Hu Yang explained to Dong Qi, greeted everyone, and took the car straight to the province.

The two people in the car were employees of Xijiang Company. One was responsible for driving, and the other was temporarily responsible for the security of Populus euphratica. Han Wen and Lu Dacheng arrived in Xijiang later today.

"Uncle Wu, long time no see."

When Hu Yang arrived at the provincial government building, Wu Di's secretary met him at the gate and took him to Wu Di's office.

"Yang Yang, you are still the same, please sit down."

Wu Di came over from behind the desk, reached out and patted Hu Yang's shoulder gently, and the two walked over and sat down on the sofa.

"I'm really embarrassed that I asked you to run over as soon as you got off the plane. Yang Yang, are you familiar with Xijiang Honghe?"

Wu Di and Hu Yang chatted a few words about home affairs and then brought the topic back.

How could you not be familiar with Xijiang Honghe Populus euphratica? In that time and space, Xijiang Honghe was a well-known listed company. It was famous for no other reason than that this company was once the flagship of Pang Qianli's "Banlong Group".

Xijiang Honghe was originally a cement production company when it was listed. Later, it was controlled by Xijiang Bandung and gradually shifted its main business to the production of tomato paste.

In Populus euphratica's memory, the tomato paste production in Honghe, Xijiang River, once ranked first in Asia.

However, Xijiang's Wanlong-controlled model was doomed to fail. After the capital chain of the Bandung group was broken, Xijiang Honghe almost suffered a disaster. Later, it was a national-brand enterprise that took action to save Xijiang Honghe's fate.

.

In this time and space, Populus euphratica began to build a "red industrial chain" a few years in advance. Xueling Food's tomato paste production scale now ranks first in the country. This has created hundreds of thousands of jobs and created opportunities for enterprises.

Profit of hundreds of millions of yuan every year.

"Uncle Wu, of course I know about Xijiang Honghe. Mr. Pang Qianli actually controls a company. I heard that they are also making ketchup?"

Xijiang Honghe got involved in the production of tomato paste later than Populus euphratica, and the scale was several orders of magnitude worse.

"Yes, it is this company. Some time ago, Pang Qianli submitted a report to the province. He said that he had plans to rely on the listed company Xijiang Honghe to integrate the tomato paste production companies in the province and create a world-class ketchup company.

The largest tomato production and processing industry group in the world.”

Pang Qianli has been making big moves since last year, acquiring several small tomato paste factories in the province. At the same time, he is also actively planning to build a tomato planting base in the south of Xijiang.

"Uncle Wu, you also know that our Xueling Foods has been engaged in tomato cultivation and deep processing a few years ago, and now it has formed a large production capacity. To be honest, it is almost impossible for the companies that enter this industry later to surpass it.

us."

Populus euphratica's Xueling Food has actually occupied most of the high-quality tomato producing areas in Xijiang Province. Moreover, its sales channels at home and abroad are very mature, and its products are deeply trusted by customers and are basically impossible to be replaced.

"Yes, I have the same idea. However, Mr. Pang from Xijiang Bandung is very persuasive, and some people in the province are still willing to support him. If, I mean if, Xijiang Honghe is willing to pay a very good price

, will you agree to let the other party acquire it?"

Obviously, Wu Di actually represented the province in these matters discussed with Hu Yang.

"Uncle Wu, does the province really want me to sell Xueling Food? I remember that when I proposed the concept of a red industrial chain, the province strongly supported it."

Hu Yang smiled and shook his head. His expression did not change, but there was already a hint of displeasure in his words.

Wu Di glared at Hu Yang, and then said: "You have so little confidence in the province? As I said just now, only some people in the province support Pang Qianli's plan. I'm not here to put pressure on you, I just want to

Listen to your thoughts and opinions.

Mergers and acquisitions between enterprises must follow the principle of voluntariness, and the province cannot directly intervene. For the time being, everyone's opinions are not unified. The difference is only about who should be supported, but there will be no situation of suppressing anyone."

"Uncle Wu, we are our own people, and I won't hide it from you. I have no personal opinion about Mr. Pang, but I am skeptical about his development model. Xijiang Wanlong looks very strong on the surface, but

Their own funds are not as much as they imagined.

Anyway, having said that, I might as well say a few more words. Xijiang Wanlong has always said that it wants to carry out industrial integration, but in fact they still haven’t gotten rid of the way of controlling the market. First get deeply involved in a listed company, and then through various concepts

The hype drives up the stock price.

In this process, Xijiang Wanlong controlled a large proportion of the circulating shares of this listed company. Then it used these shares as pledges to lend money to financial institutions, and the cycle started over and over again. I believe that the final result of this model is that the capital chain is broken, and other

The stock prices of controlled listed companies will inevitably collapse."

Hu Yang himself does not value the profitability of Xueling Food, but the social influence of this enterprise is very great, and he will definitely not give up lightly.

Besides, Xijiang Bandung's collapse happened in recent years, and he didn't want to watch Wu Di and others jump into this big pit.

After Wu Di listened, he remained silent for a long time.

Hu Yang's words are not surprising. The provincial government has never stopped questioning Xijiang Bandung. But the halo above Pang Qianli's head is too dazzling, and the questioning voices are often drowned out.

"Yang Yang, I understand your attitude. I will make it clear to them during the discussion later. As for the Xijiang Bandung matter, it is very complicated. I can only guarantee that I will not be involved."

Some words are difficult to say and cannot be explained thoroughly, but Hu Yang still understands what Wu Di means, and he will try his best to avoid the big pit of Xijiang Bandung.

"Uncle Wu, I haven't congratulated you yet. As soon as Amao gets married, you just have to wait for your grandson. By the way, I forgot to ask Amao that day, where is the bride from?"

Hu Yang smiled and changed the subject.

"You don't know? It's impossible... Isn't Juanjuan your and Maosheng's classmate?"

Wu Di was surprised that Hu Yang would ask this. He had heard Wu Maosheng say that when they were in school, Wu Maosheng, Liang Juanjuan, and Hu Yang had always had a good relationship.

"Ah? Is that so? Look at me, I don't even know about this. Hey, after coming out of school, everyone has always been busy with their own affairs and rarely contacted each other. Uncle Wu, I'll take my leave now.

Now, I’ll go see you at home later.”

The news revealed by Wu Di made Hu Yang lose his mind for a moment.

Memories of the past emerged uncontrollably in his mind. Unexpectedly, Wu Maosheng eventually caught up with Liang Juanjuan.

When he came out of Wu Di's office, he was thinking that Wu Maosheng was so thoughtful that he actually kept it a secret for so long.

Of course, he had never thought much about Liang Juanjuan, otherwise he would not have thought of meeting her after living in Guangdong Province for so many years.

After leaving the provincial capital, Hu Yang went back to his home first. The house was spotless and tidy. Even though he hadn't been back for a long time, he still felt a sense of intimacy.

"Mr. Hu, where are you now? We have entered the city and are looking for you."

The call was in Korean. They took a civil flight and rushed to Xijiang.

"I'm at home right now. Please ask Dacheng to come over. It's a rare time for you and Xiao Wu to come back. You guys should go home and have a look."

Hu Yang hung up the phone. About twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Hu, I'm here."

"Dacheng, you come in first and sit down, we will leave in a while."

After letting Lu Dacheng in, Hu Yang went into the back room, changed his clothes, and rushed to the racecourse.

In the evening, I had a meal with Chen Jialin, Xia Bing, Liu Jia, Tian Sichun and others at the villa, and then everyone stayed here.

After Hu Yang had eaten, he returned home with Lu Dacheng.

The next day, Chen Jialin and Xia Bing could ride horses at the racecourse or play nearby. Hu Yang also had a date in the morning.

"Mr. Pang, we haven't seen each other for several years. How are you always?"

In the reception room of Huijia Holdings Xijiang Company, Hu Yang met the high-spirited Pang Qianli. It can be said that Xijiang Bandung is at its most glorious now, but of course it is also about to decline from prosperity to prosperity.

After dinner yesterday, Hu Yang received a call from Pang Qianli. Unsurprisingly, Pang Qianli happened to be in Xijiang these two days and said he wanted to meet Hu Yang.
