Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

Li Ying's breathing suddenly became rapid. "So, is Jianghe Group on this list?"

As she spoke, Li Ying's heart was in her throat.

Normally, she would have absolute confidence in Jianghe Group, and she wouldn't even take Hanergy Group seriously.

But now, thanks to Li Zhihua's interference, even she is uncertain whether she can still secure the IF Group project.

Fortunately, Zhong Hui quickly reassured her, "It's on the list!"

"I've sent you the complete list, you can take a look!"

As he spoke, Chu Xiong handed him a tablet computer.

The information on the tablet is the "Directory of Enterprises for Cooperation within the Province" recommended by the Department of Commerce of Handong Province, which Zhong Hui just mentioned.

It's clear that this list has been artificially divided into two columns.

One column consists entirely of local state-owned enterprises in Handong.

The other column consists of private enterprises in Handong.

Among them, local state-owned enterprises in Handong ranked first, and the top ones were all relatively large state-owned enterprises in the province.

Hanergy Group is right at the very top of this list!

Upon seeing Hanergy Group, Li Ying's pupils constricted slightly.

If there's any company in the province that she can worry about, and that's qualified to be Jianghe Group's rival, it's only Hanergy Group.

Just before this, Li Ying had already scored high on IF's internal due diligence by making advance arrangements.

But who would have thought that Hanergy Group would actually turn the tide through this method!

While Li Ying has absolute confidence in government resources, there is still a significant gap compared to Hanergy Group.

In particular, several of the current key leaders of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Handong Province came from Hanergy.

Given this inherent advantage, Hanergy Group is undoubtedly the leading player in this bidding meeting with official intervention.

The private enterprises to which Jianghe Group belongs were undoubtedly ranked last.

Although Jianghe Group is currently ranked first among private enterprises, this is clearly not the result that Li Ying wanted to see.

Zhong Hui continued, "This cooperation was spearheaded by the Department of Commerce, with the Provincial Party Committee providing support behind the scenes."

"According to the province, the intention is to take the initiative to facilitate this cooperation and help relevant enterprises in Handong Province to contact IF Group first."

Upon hearing this, Li Ying's eyes instantly sharpened!

She knew that this negotiation meeting organized by the Handong Provincial Committee was of great importance.

If Jianghe Group wants to obtain IF projects, then it must participate!

If you're not even qualified to attend this meeting, then you won't have any more opportunities later!

Moreover, she was certain that not only was Jianghe Group preparing for the upcoming meeting, but its competitors in the province would also be giving it their all!

In short, it's like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their unique abilities.

Now is the time to show our strength. We must do everything we can to get into this negotiation meeting, and at the very least, we cannot let this opportunity be handed over to our competitors!

Li Ying dared not delay and immediately issued an order, "Zhong Hui, from now on, recall all senior executives of the group for a high-level meeting this afternoon."

"I'll head back to the provincial capital now. We'll discuss the details at the meeting."

"In short, remember this: Jianghe Group must participate in this negotiation meeting."

"If we fall behind this time, it will be very difficult to compete with Hanergy Group again in the future!"

Before they could finish speaking, Li Ying had already hurried downstairs, with Chu Xiong following closely behind.

The car had been waiting outside for a long time.

As soon as the two got in the car, they immediately headed towards the provincial capital!

Back in the car, the curtains on both sides were drawn, and the roof TV in the van immediately came down, connecting a video conference.

In the video, Zhong Hui said with a serious expression, "Big sister, I'm afraid we won't be able to make much of a difference at this negotiation meeting."

"According to the information we have so far, the right to participate in this negotiation meeting does not lie with the province, but with IF!"

Li Ying was stunned for a moment. "You mean, the final decision on who gets to attend the conference rests entirely with IF?"

Zhong Hui nodded, "Yes, the province has already submitted the list to the IF working group."

"Finally, IF will select several relevant companies to participate in the conference!"

Li Ying then asked, "What about Li Zhihua, whom I asked you to inquire about? Is there any news about him?"

Zhong Hui shook her head, "There's no news yet!"

"However, according to my inside information, the IF due diligence team is currently re-evaluating the score."

"Although I haven't received the latest evaluation results yet, our score probably won't be too high."

"As far as I know, the due diligence team has already set its sights on our compliance issues!"

"Big sister, I'm worried that even if we actually get to this negotiation meeting, IF will use this as a pretext to make trouble!"

The information Zhong Hui provided put Li Ying under pressure, like the pressure of an impending major battle!

She felt no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, she became somewhat excited!

After a moment of silence, Li Ying began to plan, "We can't wait any longer. If we wait until news comes out, it will be too late!"

"I don't have time to go back to the provincial capital. Let's start dividing the work now, and we can't afford to make any mistakes at any step!"

"Ahui, you should immediately take the lead in setting up a special task force to sort out all the core data of our group over the past three years."

"The key points are our compliance reports for cross-border business and the 23% growth rate of the DNY market last year."

"Also, we need to compile bilingual materials and bind them into a booklet immediately regarding the patent certificate for the intelligent logistics system we are developing."

"Regardless of whether we are qualified to attend, we need to prepare in advance!"

"In addition, you should contact the legal department and ask them to urgently issue a 'Commitment Letter for Compliance Operation of Jianghe Group'."

"Clearly state that we are willing to accept one year of third-party supervision from the IF Group, and include this commitment letter as an attachment in the materials!"

"Also, have the brand department produce a short video featuring our smart warehousing center and cross-border customs clearance line!"

"Highlighting our core advantage of being 40% faster than industry standards, I need to see the first draft of the video when I arrive at headquarters this afternoon!"

Zhong Hui quickly wrote it down, "Sister, the bilingual materials and the letter of commitment are all fine."

"But wouldn't short videos be too rushed?"

Li Ying's tone was resolute: "We have to finish it, even if it's urgent!"

"Hanergy has a state-owned background, we don't!"

"Our only advantage right now is our solid market strength, and these tangible things are more effective than vague reports!"

"Tell the brand department that if they don't complete this task, everyone will be laid off. Pack your things and get out!"

"Okay, go and implement it now. If you encounter any difficulties or obstacles, let me know in time."

"I'm already on the highway and should be at headquarters in about two hours. Keep in touch!"

Even after hanging up the phone, Li Ying's mind remained racing.

In a life-or-death battle, the demands on others go far beyond just those of others.

Li Ying left herself no way out!
