611: Chapter 611: The Domineering Female Tycoon!
Whoosh…
The entire banquet hall erupted into chaos.
Fan Yao, Jiang City’s richest person, not only rejected Lu Xingtian, the upcoming Secretary of the Municipal Committee of Zhongzhou City but also deliberately poured her drink out in front of him.
What did this an?
By doing so, it was not simply a matter of not giving Lu Xingtian face; it was clearly a public and severe slap in his face!
Even if Lu Xingtian had great composure, his complexion grew dark, and his hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly with anger.
Thinking of himself, Lu Xingtian, who was about to beco the Secretary of the Municipal Committee of Zhongzhou City, the top official in Zhongzhou City, it was a ti for him to be spirited and ambitious.
Yet Fan Yao treated him this way.
How infuriating, utterly infuriating!
She was rely a businessperson, and even if her business was huge and she was the richest in Zhongzhou City, how dare she humiliate him in public like this?
She was courting death!
Under Lu Xingtian’s raging fury, he gritted his teeth and said, “Ms.
Fan, what you’re doing here is quite indecent.
I must ask, where did I, Lu Xingtian, offend you to make you treat this way?”
Xing Daoyuan spoke up hastily, “Indeed, I too would like to ask, what exactly has Secretary Lu done to offend you that you must act this way?
If you don’t give an explanation today, I’m afraid you cannot leave so easily!”
Xing Daoyuan took the lead, and many people started clamoring, directing their accusations toward Fan Yao.
Fan Yao scoffed and glanced at Xing Daoyuan contemptuously.
“What did you just say?
That I can’t leave here easily?
Then let ask, what wrong have I committed?
Have I killed soone or started a fire?
What right do you have to stop from leaving?”
This…
Xing Daoyuan was montarily at a loss for words; he certainly couldn’t say it was just because Fan Yao offended Lu Xingtian, and he wanted to curry favor with Lu Xingtian by deliberately making things difficult for her.
Lu Xingtian said, “Ms.
Fan is free to leave, of course.
No one can stop her.
But so matters still need to follow proper protocol.
I still need to ask, where, if at all, did I offend you in the past?”
“Mayor Lu jests, we have no grudges between us, how could you have possibly offended ?”
“It’s just that I have doubts about Zhongzhou City’s future economic developnt and am considering a comprehensive withdrawal of my investnts from Zhongzhou City!”
Fan Yao casually dropped a bombshell.
The banquet hall was once again in an uproar.
What is this, Fan Yao is withdrawing her investnts, pulling out of Zhongzhou City completely?
Keep in mind that she is Zhongzhou City’s wealthiest individual, with personal assets of at least fifty or sixty billion, and at the helm of a major group worth over a hundred billion in market value, which is the leading enterprise in Zhongzhou City.
Not to ntion, with such an enterprise, the annual tax revenue alone amounts to more than thirty billion, which also drives employnt for tens of thousands, bringing imnse benefits to the economic developnt of Zhongzhou City.
Having such a large leading enterprise also lends great credibility to the business environnt of Zhongzhou City.
Zhongzhou City has a large number of small and dium-sized enterprises that rely on groups owned by Fan Yao for their livelihood, with high numbers of employees and tax contributions.
If such a leading enterprise were to move, the blow to Zhongzhou City’s economy and business environnt would be catastrophic and destructive, an absolute heavy bomb.
What could be the reason for Fan Yao to make such a decision, why would she do that?
There must have been an issue.
She must have had an irreconcilable conflict with Lu Xingtian, which led to today’s episode!
Lu Xingtian’s anger had dissipated, his eyebrows tightly furrowed as he stared intently at Fan Yao, wondering what on earth was going on with her, why was she causing such a scene?
Lu Xingtian believed he had never offended her before, was it really necessary for her to go to such lengths?
Beside him, Xing Daoyuan said, “Ms.
Fan, isn’t your decision a bit too hasty?
You have been developing in our Zhongzhou City for years without any problems.
Why would you suddenly make such a decision?
Leaving aside the negative impact this decision would have on our Zhongzhou City, the effect on your company will also be substantial, surely resulting in great losses!”
Scanning the surroundings, Fan Yao quickly responded.
“This is a decision made after careful consideration, and it has already been discussed with the company’s board of directors.
We unanimously believe that given the current situation in Zhongzhou City, continuing to stay here would be an unfavorable choice for our company!”
“Our company’s main operating fields include several key areas that have extrely high requirents for the local environnt, especially water quality.”
“Mayor Lu’s recent large-scale investnts attracting projects worth over a hundred billion might seem beneficial for the economic developnt of Zhongzhou City, but they are destructive for the growth of our company.”
“Many projects, including those by Tianhai Petroleum in petroleum chemical industries, are highly polluting, highly toxic, and even dangerously radioactive, such as refineries, pesticide factories, chemical plants, paper mills, tallurgical plants, paint manufacturing facilities, and recycling and dismantling plants for old electrical appliances and cars.”
“Many of these industries are ones other cities avoid like the plague.
Once these projects are launched, they will cause irreversible harm to the local environnt.”
“Among them, the Black Tiger Chemical project alone was rejected by six cities.”
“Mayor Lu, on the other hand, took the industries that others avoid and scrambled to bring them to Zhongzhou City.”
“I don’t know if Mayor Lu is simply unaware of the hazards after these projects are completed or if he knows but chooses to ignore them.
In any case, as far as I am concerned, if these projects go ahead, many of our company’s industries will suffer catastrophic damage, so I must cut my losses in ti and withdraw completely from Zhongzhou City!”
Fan Yao’s words were not emphasized, yet they resonated deeply with everyone present.
So it turned out that the investnt projects Lu Xingtian brought in were highly polluting and toxic, even unwanted by others.
No wonder the projects he attracted were currently announced only as the Tianhai Petroleum’s petrochemical park; the rest were kept secret.
It all made sense.
He was so determined to secure his political achievents that he disregarded the future developnt of Zhongzhou City, sacrificing its environnt and the health of millions of people for his gain.
How ruthless!
Lu Xingtian said, “Ms.
Fan, as you’ve ntioned, these industries do have certain negative impacts, but as long as proper purification asures are taken, the pollution is completely controllable, and it won’t cause too much harm to the local environnt.
I can assure you that these enterprises will be under the strictest supervision to ensure they treat their wastewater, emissions, and waste properly.”
Fan Yao said, “If it were so easy to control the pollution from these enterprises, they wouldn’t be called highly polluting enterprises.
I don’t believe you, Mayor Lu, do you believe what you’re saying yourself?”
Lu Xingtian was about to continue when his secretary suddenly rushed over.
“Leader, sothing has happened.
A lot of unfavorable things about you have exploded on the internet, soone is maliciously spreading rumors and slandering you!”
As the secretary spoke, Lu Xingtian’s phone began to ring; taking it out, he saw that it was Governor ng calling.
A call from Governor ng was not sothing Lu Xingtian could afford to ignore.
He promptly moved to a secluded spot to answer the call.
As soon as the call connected, he was harshly reprimanded by Governor ng.
