81: Achievements of the Investment Promotion Conference

An entire afternoon passed by quickly. It was soon the afternoon of the second day, and in just a few more hours, this investment promotion conference would come to an end.

Just as Lin Zifeng and the others were idly chatting, a familiar figure approached them.

A middle-aged man's voice then sounded beside them.

"What a coincidence. I didn't expect to see you all here."

Lin Zifeng turned around and saw that Wang Zhenfa had appeared behind them. He quickly extended his hand with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Wang, being able to see you again is truly a pleasant surprise."

"Haha, Secretary Lin, the way you speak always gives people a feeling as comfortable as a spring breeze. I also enjoy chatting with you, Secretary Lin."

Wang Zhenfa said, laughing heartily as he shook his hand.

Jiang Yufei also came over to shake hands with him. Since the others hadn't met Wang Zhenfa before, they all nodded kindly as a way of greeting.

"Mr. Wang, this investment promotion conference will be over in a few hours. Have you had any success?"

Lin Zifeng asked the question he was concerned about.

Wang Zhenfa shook his head with a smile and said, "There really aren't any projects here that align with my business or are suitable for me to invest in. I'll just have to treat this investment promotion conference as a trip. It seems I will be returning empty-handed this time."

"Mr. Wang, you come from a coastal city, so you probably don't come to Huanan Province often, right?"

"That is indeed the case. I was last in Huanan Province several years ago, and my stay this time is already considered quite long."

Wang Zhenfa nodded and said.

"In that case, why don't you take some time to travel around Huanan Province? You might just come across a suitable investment project! If you have any such plans, I welcome you to visit Heping Town. I will certainly be ready to receive you and sincerely welcome your arrival."

Lin Zifeng said with a sincere expression.

Wang Zhenfa was somewhat moved. He hesitated for a moment and said, "But if I don't find any investment projects in Heping Town that I like, wouldn't that be letting down your good intentions, Secretary Lin?"

"Mr. Wang, you are overthinking it. I invited you to visit Heping Town not just to get you to invest. Heping Town welcomes guests from all over. To be honest, a couple of days ago, we already signed a Letter of Intent to Invest with an Investor for our investment attraction project. I am inviting you to Heping Town simply as a guest. If I hadn't run into you, we were already planning to pack up and leave early."

"First of all, I want to congratulate Secretary Lin and everyone else. Just because of these words from you, Secretary Lin, I have decided to go to Heping Town, and I have also decided to make a young friend like you, Secretary Lin. However, I still need to meet with a few business friends here, which might take a few days. Within a week at most, I will come to bother you in Heping Town. I hope I won't be causing any trouble for you, Secretary Lin, and everyone else."

Wang Zhenfa was moved by Lin Zifeng's sincerity and prepared to go to Heping Town to take a look.

"Mr. Wang, you are too kind. To us, you are a friend coming from afar. My colleagues and I will be waiting for your arrival in Heping Town."

Lin Zifeng said happily.

The two chatted for another ten minutes or so, and after Wang Zhenfa shook hands with everyone, he said his goodbyes and left.

Seeing Wang Zhenfa walk away, everyone withdrew their gaze. Lin Zifeng checked the time and saw it was past two o'clock. He said, "Let's pack up and leave early! In any case, we have basically achieved our purpose for attending this investment promotion conference. Tomorrow, the boss of Yuqing Trading Company will be bringing people to Heping Town for a site visit, so let's head back today!"

The others agreed and immediately started packing up their things.

Jiang Yufei came to his side and said, "Secretary, according to the organizer's requirements, before leaving, we need to register the results achieved at the investment promotion conference—that is, the amount of the Letter of Intent to Invest—with the organizer for the record. This is so the organizer can calculate the total amount of the Letter of Intent to Invest reached at this conference. I will go and register, and I'll be right back."

"Alright, go ahead. We will wait for you in the car once we finish packing."

Lin Zifeng said while packing things up.

Jiang Yufei nodded and turned to leave.

The others packed everything up, took their belongings, and walked towards the outside of the venue.

They put their things in the trunk, got into the car, and waited for Jiang Yufei to return.

At this time, Jiang Yufei was at the organizer's registration desk, registering. The staff member looked at her and asked, "Hello, Comrade. Which unit are you from?"

"Hello, I am a Cadre from Heping Town, Yushu County, here to attend the investment promotion conference. According to the organizer's requirements, I am here to register before we prepare to leave. Thank you to the organizer for providing us with this opportunity."

As she spoke, she took out two Letters of Intent to Invest and placed them in front of the staff member.

"Is it Yushu County, which is under Chunhua City in our province?"

The staff member asked uncertainly.

"Yes." Having received a confirmed answer, the other party began to register it seriously.

After registering, they very politely handed the two Letters of Intent to Invest back to her.

After thanking them, Jiang Yufei put the Letters of Intent to Invest away and turned to leave.

The staff member watched her retreating figure and couldn't help but think, strange things happen every year, but this year there are especially many!

The Investment Promotion Bureau of Yushu County, Chunhua City, only arrived fashionably late on the first day of the investment promotion conference, near noon.

They registered, went through the motions, and left.

Even the Chunhua City Investment Promotion Bureau and several other county units that came to attend the investment promotion conference chose to withdraw from the venue early yesterday afternoon.

The entire Chunhua City had only signed a little over 200 million in Letters of Intent to Invest during this conference, and it was unknown how much of that amount was a falsified figure created through connections just to save face!

Unexpectedly, a small township had signed 65 million in Letters of Intent to Invest. Even if only half of the investment amount actually materialized, it would still be an extraordinary achievement.

It was unknown whether this Heping Town of Yushu County had just gotten lucky or if there was some other secret behind it.

The staff member felt strange and specifically marked Heping Town with a pen.

Jiang Yufei got into the car, and the two cars drove away from the venue one after the other, heading in the direction of the hotel.

Upon returning to the hotel, everyone packed up, checked out of their rooms, and then walked out of the hotel with their personal belongings.

He looked at everyone and said, "Comrades, in order to welcome the Investor for their site visit to Heping Town tomorrow, we have to head back now. For the future development of our Heping Town, everyone will have to work a little harder! For us right now, time waits for no one!"
