Chapter 843 Meet Du Anmin
December 26th.
Beijing, Dongcheng District, Zhengyi Road.
Li Dong got off the car at the gate of the city government compound.
Somewhat different from other places, the capital city government is located in a simple and mysterious courtyard.
In fact, the capital city government does not have a high sense of existence. On the boundary of the imperial capital, there is a certain sea where the boss is located, and there are various regional governments below.
Few people usually pay attention to the city hall compound sandwiched in the middle.
At the gate of the compound, there were not many pedestrians coming and going.
Li Dong didn't choose to wait for Du Anmin to see him after get off work, and spend time with Lao Du alone at home, or with Shen Xuehua around, Li Dong would only feel more uncomfortable.
It's better to go directly to the city government compound, presumably Lao Du would not kill him with his eyes here.
As the government agency of the imperial capital, although the presence of the city government compound is not high, entry and exit are still relatively strict.
When registering Li Dong, the security personnel almost asked about three generations of Li Dong's ancestors.
Even though Li Dong reported that he was the chairman of Yuanfang Group and made an appointment with Du Anmin in advance, the security room still called Du Anmin's secretary.
After confirming Li Dong's identity, he let Li Dong in.
...
When Du Anmin arrived in the capital, he was alone.
He didn't bring anyone with him, and the driver's secretary stayed in Jiangbei.
The new secretary has not been with Du Anmin for a long time, less than a month.
At Du Anmin's level, even a secretary is not low in rank, let alone a brat.
The person who came out to pick up Li Dong was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was gentle and elegant. Compared with some county and city-level secretaries, this one was a little less humble and impetuous.
When he saw Li Dong, the middle-aged man was polite and respectful.
After shaking hands with Li Dong, the secretary briefly introduced himself.
Zhao Nanfang is currently the deputy director of the Municipal Office.
Of course, this is a part-time job. His full job is secretary, Du Anmin's secretary.
But from an organizational point of view, the secretary is a part-time job, and the deputy director of the general office is the full-time job.
Li Dong didn't bother to care about these things. After shaking hands with Zhao Nanfang, he said with a smile on his face: "Director Zhao, Secretary Du... Well, the mayor is not busy now, is he?"
Zhao Nanfang chuckled and said, "The mayor just came to the capital, and he has a lot of things to do. But this morning, knowing that Mr. Li is coming, the mayor specially postponed two meetings. Now he is waiting for Mr. Li in the office."
"I'm flattered, and I'm causing trouble for the mayor."
After Li Dong finished speaking, he felt a little awkward, mainly because of the address.
Calling the secretary is used to it, but suddenly changing it to the mayor always feels uncomfortable.
But after all, it is in the city government compound, so we must pay attention to the impact. It seems that the Beijing City Committee also works in the same compound, and Li Dong is too lazy to talk about such a trivial matter.
Zhao Nanfang smiled and said nothing when he heard the words, but actually he was very cautious in his heart.
Although Li Dong looked young, he didn't dare to be negligent.
Yuanfang Group is also well-known in the capital now, but this is not the main reason why he attaches importance to it.
He didn't lie just now, Du Anmin's itinerary for today has already been set.
There was even a meeting. Du Anmin said a few days ago that he would specially remind him that he would attend it when the time came.
As a result, Du Anmin suddenly rejected the meeting when he received a call from Li Dong in the morning.
Even if Zhao Nanfang didn't know the relationship between Li Dong and Shen Qian, he knew that this young man in front of him was not simple, otherwise Du Anmin would not have taken it seriously.
Zhao Nanfang didn't dare to think deeply. There are some things that he should not think about. His task now is to take Li Dong to see Du Anmin.
It takes about five or six minutes to walk from the gate of the compound to Du Anmin's office.
Along the way, people greeted Zhao Nanfang from time to time.
As Du Anmin's secretary, Zhao Nanfang had a very high status, regardless of rank.
Seeing Zhao Nanfang coming out to pick up people in person, many people looked at Li Dong a few more times.
Very young, where is this sacred?
Of course, not everyone does not know Li Dong, as a new generation of legend,
Li Dong is still somewhat well-known.
Someone also recognized Li Dong, and felt relieved immediately.
The Yuanfang Group rose during the time when Du Anmin was in charge of Jiangbei, and they even heard of some gossip.
It's not too strange that Zhao Nanfang came out to pick up Li Dong himself.
...
Five minutes later, Du Anmin's office arrived.
Zhao Nanfang knocked lightly on the door, and waited for the sound of "Come in" from inside before Zhao Nanfang pushed the door open and entered.
Li Dong also took advantage of the opportunity to look inside. The office is not too big, and Du Anmin is reviewing the documents.
After Zhao Nanfang reported a few words softly, Du Anmin raised his head and looked over. Seeing Li Dongdong looking around, Du Anmin smiled and said, "Why, do you still want me to invite you in?"
Li Dong stepped into the office with a embarrassed face.
Zhao Nannan next to him didn't feel that Du Anmin was reprimanding him at this time. The words were too intimate, and it was not the relationship between an official and a businessman at all.
Heart tumbling for a while, Zhao Nanfang didn't stay long, and soon left the office, closing the office door by the way.
Du Anmin was not in a hurry to talk to Li Dong, and continued to lower his head and said, "Find a place to sit for a while, and I'll read the documents in my hand."
Li Dongdui smiled and said: "You are busy with your work, I will take a look."
"Um."
Du Anmin stopped talking and looked down at the document.
It's not pretending, and it's not testing Li Dong, there's no need for that, he's really busy.
He just took office not long ago, and with the big event of the Olympic Games coming up, he is busy like a spinning top these days, and he can't stop at all.
If it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't seen Li Dong for a few days, and he had something to do with this kid, he really wouldn't have time to see Li Dong.
Du Anmin was busy reviewing documents, while Li Dong wandered around the office.
This kind of opportunity is very rare. Even if ordinary businessmen meet Du Anmin, they will not have the opportunity to meet in the office like Li Dong.
Even if they met in the office, the businessmen were very honest at this time, and they would not wander around.
Li Dong walked around the office, halfway Zhao Nanfang poured two cups of tea and came in.
Seeing Du Anmin take off his glasses, Li Dong knew that he was almost done, so he sat down honestly in the rest area beside him.
Du Anmin rubbed his eyes, walked over and sat down opposite Li Dong, took a sip of tea from his teacup and said, "There are a lot of things, how is that girl Qianqian?"
"Okay, it's good, I gained a few pounds again..."
"Ahem..."
Du Anmin almost spit out his tea, glanced at him but didn't answer.
Li Dong on the opposite side laughed dryly, not knowing what to say.
After a moment of silence, Du Anmin continued: "If you don't come to see me, I also want to talk to you recently. I won't talk about personal matters today, let's talk about business."
"Recently, the stores of your Yuanfang Supermarket in the capital have opened one after another. The supermarket industry, as the primary industry close to people's livelihood, although it is not very eye-catching among all walks of life, it cannot be ignored.
There are a lot of supermarket chains that have entered the capital recently, and I am also paying attention to your previous competition with Suguo.
You have always been radical, but this time I have to remind you not to act recklessly.
During this period of time, the international economic market is turbulent, and you must have heard of it.
In addition, the Olympic Games is about to start. During this time, both home and abroad are staring at the capital. The competition between you and Suguo should not extend to Wumart.
Seeking progress while maintaining stability is not only my personal idea, but also the idea of many people.
At this time, you are too aggressive, and the influence is not good. "
Du Anmin didn't say it directly, but Li Dong understood.
When he and Suguo fought a price war in southern Jiangsu, the local economy in southern Jiangsu was a little turbulent.
Two groups with over 10 billion yuan are fighting each other, and the supermarket is also a platform for managing daily necessities, which affects not only the two companies, but also many things.
At this time, Du Anmin was also afraid that Li Dong would mess around, so he began to charge in the capital.
If Yuanfang and Wumart also fight, continuing Sunan's style, and causing a chain reaction, it will be troublesome.
At this time, because of the impact of the financial crisis and the Olympic Games, everyone is seeking stability.
Stability is the consensus of all.
Once the catfish Li Dong broke in at this time, no matter whether he won or lost in the end, some people would definitely be dissatisfied.
Those who are dissatisfied here are not ordinary people or businessmen, but higher levels.
As soon as Du Anmin finished speaking, Li Dong hurriedly expressed his opinion: "Secretary Du still doesn't know? I'm not that kind of person. As long as Wumart and the others don't provoke me, I won't make things difficult for them."
Du Anmin gave him a funny look, aren't you that kind of person?
I just know you, so I will remind you!
If it were someone else, Du Anmin wouldn't talk about it at all. At this time, everyone has a steelyard in their hearts.
Li Dong can't, he always likes to pick chestnuts out of fire.
This time is actually an opportunity, Li Dong may not dare to make a move, if there is a war in the capital, only Yuanfang and Wumart will be fine.
But this possibility is unlikely, the situation in the capital is more complicated than that in southern Jiangsu.
There are hundreds of large and small retail groups, and more than 10,000 retail stores of all kinds. If the 10,000 stores start to fight, it will be a mess.
Du Anmin reminded him and didn't say any more. This kid is impulsive and he is not stupid. He has already reminded him, and the situation of Sunan should not happen again.
Afterwards, the two chatted casually. Seeing that Du Anmin was quite easy to talk to today, Li Dong couldn't help but said, "Secretary Du, I heard that there will be a piece of land in the central business district of the CBD to be auctioned soon?"
Du Anmin glanced at him, frowned slightly and said, "Why, did you like it?"
Li Dong laughed and said, "Isn't it that I'm going to build a Yuanfang Building here? Yuanfang Group is now a well-known domestic group, and Beijing and Tianjin are key cities. They always rent other people's places, so it's embarrassing. .”
"Even if we plan to build a branch, the land is too big. It's nearly 100,000 square meters."
"Ahem, I was thinking about that. By the way, I will build a few more office buildings, and then open a distant square. One hundred thousand square meters is not too big."
Du Anmin was a little shocked, this kid really wanted to do something big.
Preparing to build a branch building, and then opening a shopping mall in the distance, and then building an office building. This is not just to develop a supermarket, he even wants to enter the capital in real estate.
Du Anmin really knew about the auctioned land, it was located in the core business district of the CBD.
Leaving aside the land price, just wanting to create influence and scale in the capital, the investment is no less than that of Li Dong's previous investment in supermarkets in the Beijing-Tianjin area.
Not less, but more.
According to the previous market price, with a land area of 100,000 square meters and a construction area of more than 200,000 square meters, plus it is still a core business district, the land price alone can exceed 3 billion.
After all, Li Dong wants to complete the construction of the commercial plaza and branch building he said, and don't even think about it if it is less than 5 billion.
Du Anmin is very clear about the situation in the distance these past few years. Does he still have the money to continue to expand like this?
Seeing Du Anmin pondering, Li Dong was not in a hurry.
It stands to reason that there is no need to specifically inform Du Anmin about this matter, but Li Dong still said it since they are all here.
After all, on the capital side, the foundation in the distance is unstable, and it is not that easy to obtain land.
Li Dong is not afraid of a head-on collision, but he is afraid of someone coming to cover him.
Don't think that no one dares to do it in the central business district of the capital. There are many bold people these days.
The plan of Yuanfang Square and the branch building have been settled a long time ago.
Not only in the capital city, but Li Dong plans to deploy in several first-tier cities around 2008.
Let's not talk about anything else, take down the land first, or wait for two years, and the prime land will be snatched up by others, so there is no room for him.
Even if there is land at that time, after 2008, the land price will have to skyrocket.
Li Dong estimates that if he wants to acquire the same land after 2008, the land premium may exceed 50%, or even more.
The office was quiet for a while, and after an unknown amount of time, Du Anmin said, "Are you sure you want to do it?"
"Well, sure. This is a plan that the group has set up long ago. In the next few years, we will adopt this model of coordinated development of shopping malls and real estate in major first- and second-tier cities.
Closely combine Yuanfang Supermarket and Dongyu Real Estate to form complementary effects. "
"Have you considered how much investment this will require?" Du Anmin asked again.
Li Dong nodded and said: "I've thought about it, but it's a matter of labor and funds, and it was a little difficult in the first two years.
After this period of time has passed, Yuanfang Group will officially start up. At that time, money is not the biggest problem. "
Du Anmin pondered for a while, and then said after thinking for a while: "I know about this."
Li Dong breathed a sigh of relief, that's enough.
Du Anmin said that he knew, which means he will pay attention.
The mayor has personally paid attention to it, and any tricks in it are false.
Li Dong was not too worried about fighting with real swords and guns.
It's just money. He doesn't have it now, but it doesn't mean he won't have it in the future.
Anyway, the auction is not now, it's early, at least a few months away, and I should have money on hand by then.
And by that time, the land price may still drop, and there will be fewer competitors, so of course we have to pick up the cheap ones.
After talking about the business, Du Anmin himself was busy, so Li Dong didn't bother.
When going out, Du Anmin followed Li Dong all the way to the office door.
It wasn't until the moment Li Dong opened the door that Du Anmin said softly, "Treat Qianqian well."
After saying this, Du Anmin didn't know what it was like, and turned back to his desk.
Li Dong paused for a moment, nodded and said, "I will."
Regardless of whether Du Anmin heard or not, Li Dong stepped out.
