Chapter 275 Celebration
The next day.
Ye Sihai sent Li Xiaoqing and Tang Jing to Lecheng Airport.
Li Xiaoqing returned to Beijing.
Tang Jing went directly to Japan to stay for a while and sang the prayer with Meiyi Lingzi.
After seeing them off, Gu Zhiqiang began to distribute the prize money for the parade.
Ye Sihai, the sponsor, had to show up.
He personally distributed the grand prize.
Uncle Mei won the first prize without any surprise.
Others were not angry at all.
There was no way, Uncle Mei's Third Prince was the most outstanding from the beginning.
Even the provincial TV station gave him the most shots, and Uncle Mei was interviewed for a few sentences, appeared on TV, and became a celebrity.
After dealing with this matter, Ye Sihai focused his energy on Crescent Bay in the next few days.
Feng Ping will start construction soon after the New Year.
This is his super project.
The old town needs to be relocated, the nursing home needs to be built, and the resort and resettlement housing need to be started at the same time.
Just the construction workers alone probably need more than 500 people.
This is definitely an unprecedented large project in Jinfeng Town.
Ye Sihai entrusted the food, drink, and toilet of these 500 people to the homes of Liu Xiaoer and the other five teenagers.
Each family contributed a little money to build a canteen and a bathhouse. Isn't this more money than going out to sea?
And Ye Sihai also has subsidies.
Wait until the 28th day of the first lunar month.
Sihai Company held a small celebration.
Ye Sihai, the boss behind the scenes, certainly couldn't be absent.
Today is also the day when the training of Sihai Star crew members is completed.
Two engineers from the shipyard will stay as technical consultants, and the rest will go home.
Lawyer Lu came from Fucheng specially. He is now the general legal counsel of Sihai Group.
At the celebration, Ye Sihai, Xiao Jianguo, Lin Qi, and Liu Gang, four people cut the ribbon and scattered flowers, and it was inevitable to eat and drink.
Of course, Sihai Company's welfare has come again.
When the celebration is over, the employees will go home with big bags and small boxes. I don't know how many people will drool.
Who doesn't want to work at Sihai Company now?
What a pity...!
The requirements are too high, and many people can't meet them.
Ye Sihai's name is probably known to everyone in Lecheng.
Unfortunately, many people want to meet him, but Ye Sihai doesn't give them a chance.
He doesn't even meet the mayor, let alone others.
In Jinfeng Town, Gu Zhiqiang blocked the official visitors.
And Sihai Company blocked the private visitors.
As for those who want to come directly?
Are you kidding?
Who has such a big face?
Now the symbol of Jinfeng Town is the name Ye Sihai.
This name is the most famous sign here.
After the celebration, everyone boarded the Sihai Star.
Today, Ye Sihai wants to test whether the trained employees can drive the Sihai Star to sea without the shipyard engineers.
Stepping onto the deck, Ye Sihai couldn't help but feel high-spirited.
He was too familiar with that feeling in his previous life.
It seemed that this world was under his control.
"Let's go!"
At the command.
Si Hai Zhi Xing whistled and slowly left the dock.
It was just after the Chinese New Year, and the dock still had a strong flavor of the New Year, but it was also operating normally.
It was just that the number of customers was the least in the year, so it seemed a little deserted.
Xiao Jianguo, Lin Qi, and Liu Gang were all on the boat.
Gu Zhiqiang said sarcastically:
"How much did you pay out in welfare today?"
Even Ye Sihai didn't need to speak, Qin Yuan on the side automatically came up with a joke:
"About eight million."
Gu Zhiqiang...!
Holding his breath.
"Ye Sihai, I'm seriously warning you, it's extremely immoral for you to raise the welfare of workers without reason."
Ye Sihai retorted:
"Mayor Gu, look at yourself, are you still a parent official? Tsk tsk tsk."
Gu Zhiqiang was so angry.
He gritted his teeth fiercely:
"What do you want me to do with Jinfeng Fisheries? Where can I get so much money to compete with you in welfare? We are all from the same town, won't you point fingers at me and scold me behind my back? I beg you, Sihai, be a man."
Qin Yuan and Chen Youtian were holding back their laughter and dared not say a word.
Ye Sihai was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"I know, I will try not to do such a big thing in the future."
Mayor Gu wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Tycoon, I am convinced, but you promised me that you would give me the near-sea fishing boats, and you will be responsible for loading the goods on my offshore fishing boats."
Ye Sihai smiled and said:
"Go to General Manager Xiao to sign an agreement. I keep my word, but you can't delay paying a penny of the money you should pay."
Gu Zhiqiang laughed and said:
"Sihai, brother, you are so rich, how about... lending me another sum?"
"Get lost!"
Ye Sihai refused directly:
"The landlords don't have any surplus food."
Sihai Star had already left the dock and began to sail at full speed on the vast ocean.
"For the last time, help me."
"Why do you need so much money?"
Ye Sihai found a place on the deck and sat down.
Gu Zhiqiang quickly came over and said with some dissatisfaction:
"The parade has been reported as a folk activity, this is a done deal, it's too popular."
Ye Sihai...!
He understood.
"My dad can't handle it. The Ministry of Culture and the Propaganda Department of Beijing have issued instructions to make it bigger and stronger next year. This is the top priority of my work for the year. I am too busy now."
"Jinfeng Fisheries, town committee work, and this."
"The most important thing is that I don't have money."
Gu Zhiqiang looked speechless and asked the sky:
"I want to upgrade the basic conditions of the entire town by several levels. Without 500 million, it can't be done at all."
Seeing his gritting teeth, Ye Sihai thought for a while, and then said:
"Have you ever thought about how long it will take you to get back the investment of 500 million?"
Gu Zhiqiang was embarrassed:
"Five years at the fastest, and ten years conservatively estimated."
Ye Sihai...!
"You'd better go to the bank. I can't wait."
Gu Zhiqiang almost kowtowed to Ye Sihai:
"I don't care. You have to lend me another 500 million. You can't not lend me."
Ye Sihai laughed angrily.
Have you ever seen someone forcing someone to borrow money?
You are so tough when borrowing money?
Who gave you the courage?
To put it bluntly, these 500 million are basically equivalent to ineffective investment.
There is no return.
Or...!
The return is to Gu Zhiqiang's successor.
Unless he serves as the mayor for 20 years.
Investment in infrastructure, of course, is a political achievement.
But what about the money?
You have to raise money.
Bank loans for infrastructure?
Go ask the bank if they will do it?
The economy of Jinfeng Town was not good to begin with.
Lecheng belongs to the middle and lower reaches.
If it weren't for Gu Zhiqiang's strong background, when he came here before, no bank would be willing to endorse him.
The sea is blue.
Ye Sihai looked at the colorful halo reflected by the sun on the rugged sea surface, and was stunned for a while.
Spring is here.
"Sihai, help me."
Ye Sihai shook his head.
He couldn't borrow these 500 million.
Gu Zhiqiang is now in debt. If he follows the plan, he will definitely not be afraid of not being able to pay it back.
But unlimited additional?
This doesn't fit Ye Sihai's philosophy.
Unless...!
