The agreement was signed and the Meixi Port Company was officially acquired to obtain equal control of Meixi Port Port Port with Meigang and Huaineng Group. It should have been a celebration, but because of seeing Shen Huai appearing on the west bank of Meixi River, except Liang Rongjun, everyone else was filled with a shadow that could not be removed.

Tan Qiping felt a little tired for no reason and attended the dinner at the Nanyuan Hotel, so he asked Huang Xi to drive him back, and he was not in the mood to stay and have a long talk with Xie Haicheng and Sun Qiyi.

Seeing Tan Qiping's car Juechen leaving, Xie Zhi pursed her lips slightly, turned her face to look at her father. Seeing that there was a look of desolation in her father's eyes, she sighed and said nothing.

Xie Chengjiang stood on the steps and said, "No matter what Chen Huai's idea was, we should not fall further into Donghua."

Xie Zhi looked back at her brother, wanted to say something, but found that there was anything that could refute her brother's words.

Although the participation in Meixi Power Plant is temporarily delayed because many details of the second phase project have not been agreed upon, judging from the current situation, Governor Zhao Qiuhua is firmly promoting the launch of the large-scale electric furnace steel project in Meixi.

Although Sun Qiyi has a great say in Asia-Pacific affairs, he is ultimately restricted by the headquarters of Changqing Group; Fuji iron is only interested in the extension and deep penetration of its overseas industrial chain, and does not intend to involve the power struggles in the domestic officialdom. Instead, he only pursues their interests in overseas industrial layout. Changqing Group and Fuji iron, and jointly with Provincial Steel, expanding the steel industry layout in Meixi, seems to be the general trend, and it is not something that Haifeng can stop it.

Just before the New Year, Xie Zhi advocated taking over the Mei Highway renovation project, but she still wanted to take the initiative with a step-by-step attitude. But who would have thought that Chen Huai actually chose to withdraw here, which immediately caused them to fall into a situation of "not moving forward or retreating".

In the past two or three years, Haifeng has invested a lot in Donghua. From the earliest electromechanical factory, the Four Seasons Garden Hotel, and the recent equity investment in Fuji Iron-making Joint Venture Steel Plant, Xiamei Highway renovation project, the office building project on the north side of Zhuxi Avenue, and its equity in Meixi Port Company, almost all of Haifeng's cash flow generated by nearly 200 million yuan in the past two or three years has been consumed in Donghua, and it is impossible to withdraw.

If it were to follow the economic development level of Donghua City before 1994, Haifeng Group and Changqing Group had an investment of more than 300 million yuan, it would definitely occupy a considerable weight in the city's economic activities and could exert a vital influence. However, the person who fought with them was not others, but the Shenhuai who could not see through and did things was so broad that Haifeng never had the opportunity to seize any initiative in Donghua.

The city steel crisis was barely over. Xie Zhi once thought that they could gradually grasp the situation and help Tan Qiping recover the unfavorable situation in Donghua, but she never expected that Chen Huai would choose to relax his position at this time and would lead the wolf into the house. She also wanted to follow up on a large scale with the support of Governor Zhao Qiuhua behind him.

Although the investment opportunities that Meigang and Huai can give away are also open to Haifeng, Haifeng's strength is still a little weak, and the funds that can be used for additional investment are quite limited. Following up will not change the situation where the dominant steel market is in the steel industry.

No matter what idea Chen Huai was behind him, when Tan Qiping had not completely recovered from the municipal steel crisis, Chen Huai did not hesitate to lead wolves into the house and let the large-scale entry of provincial steel will only continue to expand its basic position in Donghua and further form a squeezing force for Tan Qiping. In the near future, Zhao Qiuhua will directly promote the transfer of Tan Qiping from Donghua in the province, which may not be impossible.

Once the provincial steel company occupied the dominant power of Donghua's economic development, it would use officials such as Yu Chengzhen to conduct in-depth infiltration of Donghua in all aspects, making Tan Qiping optional in Donghua. As the governor, Zhao Qiuhua directly proposed to transfer Tan Qiping out of Donghua, which became natural.

Is this the purpose of Chen Huai?

Could it be that Chen Huai would not hesitate to both sides and drag Tan Qiping into the water?

"What is Chen Huai's purpose of such a mess?" Xie Zhi couldn't help asking.

"What's hard to understand about this," Xie Chengjiang said with a tense face, "Isn't he willing to destroy the Song family all these years?"

Xie Zhi let out a sigh of relief, knowing that Chen Huai would not easily let go of his old hatred that had been abandoned on the farm when he was young. She thought that perhaps only this understanding could explain that he would not hesitate to both sides and drag Tan Qiping off the horse and collapse the situation that Song corporations had finally formed in Huaihai. However, she was still confused and asked, "Can Aunt Song and Song Hongjun allow him to mess with this?"

"That can only be said that he was wronged and sold too well..." Xie Chengjiang said.

Xie Zhi was speechless about this. Before, Tan Qiping and they forced Chen Huai in Donghua all the time. At this time, Chen Huai took the initiative to withdraw, but they could not say that he was not.

"Huai Neng and Hong Ji dragged in too much for Mei Gang at this time, and many things could only be kidnapped by Chen Huai," Xie Chengjiang said again, "and Cheng Wenguang and Dai Chengguo and others had some slight words to their uncle who went to Huaihai Province to serve as vice governor, but they just didn't show it. It's not unimaginable to keep silent now."

When Xie Zhi saw her father standing aside, she kept silent and knew that this incident had a great blow to her father.

It’s not that Haifeng will suffer any direct losses, but Xie Haicheng has been sarcastic in the political and business circles over the years, but has given Chen Huai a young boy who had never seen it before, leading the nose from beginning to end. At this time, he even had to consider whether he would give up his political allies who have worked closely together for a long time. No matter what, he was a heavy psychological setback. Why did he not feel desolate?

Xie Chengjiang said: "I don't advocate following up with Meixi Power Plant and the electric furnace steel project led by Shenggang in the future; before the situation is clear, I will just stay in Donghua and digest the existing business well. Maybe I can draw some people from Hong Kong to strengthen the team here."

Xie Zhi thought that's all that was the only way.

******************

Nobuo Yamazaki stood in front of the window and watched the Xie family and daughter standing by the parking lot for a while after Tan Qiping left, and still stood there talking.

Nobuo Yamazaki turned around and said to a young man sitting on the sofa in the room: "Yasada-kun, how long are you going to China this time?"

"Maybe I won't leave," said Tomoe Yasuda, sitting on the sofa, and said, "China\government will allow foreign banks to set up branches directly in China. Although the opening is not big, the headquarters is also interested in taking this opportunity to enter China. However, whether this office is located in Yanjing or Guangnan, the headquarters is still discussing - it is really annoying - so whether I will stay in Yanjing or Guangnan is still uncertain. However, I am interested in setting up a branch in Donghua, which will be convenient for you to come to drink and chat from time to time..."

"Is that true?" Yamazaki Nobuo was quite happy when he heard that Yasuda Bank was about to enter China and asked, "Now Fuji Iron Investment in China requires a lot of procedures. It is very troublesome. If Yasuda Bank really wants to enter China, not only can Fuji Iron's industrial layout in China be accelerated, but Yasuda's chaebol's actions in the entire overseas layout can also be accelerated; but Yasuda Bank really plans to set up an office in Donghua?"

"The Donghua place is very inconspicuous. Even if you have to catch up with Pingjiang City at this speed, it will take several years. However, there are also a few interesting characters," said Masato Yasuda. "During his time in the UK, Chen Huai stayed in Birmingham, had contact with Siyumins, and Feiqi Industrial. But the powerful Donghua characters you mentioned, Tan, Yu and others, know nothing about these things. How could they be Chen Huai's opponent? To avoid the marginalization of Fuji iron in Donghua, Yasuda Bank will not help you, how can it be?"

"Do we want to tell Tan, Yu and the others this information?"

"It's too late now, and it's meaningless," Yasuda Tomoe said disdainfully, "Besides, it would be boring if he directly cut off his opponent in the cradle..."

******************

The signing ceremony, Shenggang, Changqing Group and Fuji Iron Manufacturing held a banquet to celebrate; Pengyue, Zhujiang Construction and Zhongxin Investment also held a banquet to celebrate in Shangxi Garden. This time, although Shenggang and others gained equal control over Meixi Port Wharf, Pengyue, Zhujiang Construction and Zhongxin Investment also regained much larger funds than they had invested at the beginning, which is also a matter worth congratulations.

Chen Huai held the list of attending the signing ceremony today in his hand. When he saw that the representative of Yasuda Bank was also surnamed Yasuda, he pointed to the name Yasuda Tomoe and asked Sun Yalin: "Do you think Yasuda Tomoe is from the Yasuda family?"

Japan's economy is supported to a considerable extent by financial capital groups. Because Japan's traditional closed economy and society is very serious, the outside world is accustomed to calling Japan's financial capital groups "chaebols".

The Yasuda chaebol, whose Yasuda Bank is the core, is still quite unfamiliar with it. But in fact, Fuji Iron, the third largest steelmaking company in Japan, is just a side branch of Yasuda chaebol.

In addition to the direct investment from each company, the joint venture steel mill invested and built by Fuji Iron in Donghua, with an average of 30 million US dollars in yen loans, which are provided by Yasuda Bank; and Fuji Iron, Shenggang, and Changqing Group will also provide a 10 million US dollars in yen loan to supplement construction funds this time.

Although the asset size of Changqing Group is as large as billions of dollars, it is still very weak compared to Yasuda Zaibaku.

The State Council has recently relaxed the entry points for foreign banking institutions to enter the country directly. The first batch of foreign banks willing to enter the country are willing to enter the country. Chen Huai also saw a list, and Yasuda Bank is also listed.

Although these foreign banks will not be allowed to directly absorb deposits in China for the time being, these foreign banks have strong capital strength. Once they have the conditions to directly enter the domestic industrial investment market, their actions may be faster than expected.

Especially since Fuji Iron and Yasuda Bank have a close relationship, some things are more urgent for Meigang.

"..." Sun Yalin turned her head and said, "He is a arrogant guy with a scent of arrogance in his bones; only those from the Japanese chaebol family will have such a disgusting smell."

Japan has risen to become one of the most active economies in the world since the 1970s and 1980s. Japanese chaebols have been rampant in the capital market for nearly 20 years. In comparison, Western European capital forces such as Britain and France are relatively weak, and they have cooperation with each other, but they are more disliked.

Chen Huai smiled. Although he was working hard to learn Japan's economic model in many aspects, he could not have any good feelings for Japan in his bones, and he could understand Sun Yalin's mood.
