He contemplated, the investment proposition for Jinpen County was overwhelmingly favorable. The advantages far outweighed any potential drawbacks, and the promise of substantial preferential policies hung in the air like ripe fruit ready to be plucked.

Breaking the silence, Liu Yong addressed the gathered assembly. His voice carried an air of wisdom and authority. "My friends, I've taken the Jinpen County Council's proposal into careful consideration. But before we move forward, it's imperative that I conduct an on-site inspection. Only through this can we make an informed decision."

His words rang true.

Indeed, such a momentous decision warranted thorough examination, but it was undeniable that unease lingered among the group. The fear of the investment slipping away haunted their collective conscience.

Wang Yongwang, in particular, couldn't conceal his anxiety. He glanced at his wristwatch, noting that it was barely past eleven in the morning. An idea struck him, and he proposed eagerly, "Mr. Liu, perhaps it would be wise to break for lunch first before embarking on the field trip. What do you think?"

All eyes turned to Liu Yong, eager for his response. Time was of the essence, after all.

Liu Yong, ever the pragmatic businessman, broke into a warm smile and waved his hand. "Very well, let's arrange it accordingly."

Wang Yongwang's face lit up with relief. He rose to his feet, extending a heartfelt invitation to Liu Yong. "Then, Mr. Liu, let's enjoy a meal together before setting out for the field."

Liu Yong, Li Changle, and the entire party followed Wang Yongwang as they made their way to the county's hotel, where a sumptuous feast awaited. The tables were set with an array of dishes that seemed to flow in an endless stream, demonstrating Wang Yongwang's hospitality.

The selection was diverse and tantalizing, and Wang Yongwang had gone the extra mile by providing exceptional wines. As the bottles were presented one by one, those who enjoyed a tipple couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement.

Liu Yong, however, had other plans. He leaned toward Wang Yongwang, suggesting, "Mayor Wang, what do you say we replace the wine with non-alcoholic beverages today? After all, we have a field inspection ahead of us."

Without a second thought, Wang Yongwang signaled for the wine to be taken away. It left others in astonishment.

This wasn't something anyone could have suggested, let alone expected. But Liu Yong's influence was undeniable, and his request was swiftly accommodated. The common consensus was clear – Mr. Liu was truly extraordinary.

In place of wine, the tables were now adorned with an assortment of soft drinks and tea. The atmosphere remained warm, and even those who were averse to alcohol secretly, and gratefully, glanced at Liu Yong.

Many guests followed suit, replacing wine with non-alcoholic beverages, and raised their glasses in a toast to Liu Yong. They offered heartfelt words of appreciation.

Liu Yong had undoubtedly become the centerpiece of the gathering, eclipsing even the host, Wang Yongwang. After the meal, they took a brief respite.

Around two o'clock in the afternoon, the extensive convoy set out, weaving through the city's streets and alleyways en route to the county industrial park.

The impressive procession drew the attention of bystanders, prompting discussions among the townsfolk.

"What a grand convoy!"

"I counted; there are eighteen vehicles in total. Who's the big shot? They've certainly arrived in style."

"I heard that Liu Yong, the boss of Global Shipping Group, is back in town. Rumor has it he's planning a massive new factory investment right here in Jinpen County."

"Really? That's fantastic news. My son has been struggling to find a decent job since he graduated. Perhaps he'll have a chance to work at Liu Yong's new factory."

And so, the convoy continued on its path, generating chatter and anticipation along the way.

The convoy eventually arrived at the County Industrial Park. Liu Yong had visited the park once before, but the transformation since then was nothing short of astounding.

On his initial visit, the landscape had been barren, with weeds and scant factories dotting the scene. Now, the park boasted wide, well-paved roads and a brand-new, sprawling factory complex.

It was the impressive Universal Semiconductor No. 2 factory, spanning over 800 acres, a testament to its colossal scale.

Liu Yong gazed upon the facility with satisfaction, seemingly uninterested in conducting an immediate inspection. Instead, accompanied by Wang Yongwang and the delegation, he proceeded to the Industrial Park's management committee.

The committee had been well-prepared, with Director Jin personally presenting the park's current status to Liu Yong. They unfurled a colossal aerial image of the industrial park, complete with detailed explanations.

Director Jin elaborated, "We're ready to level and prepare this area immediately, encompassing at least 1,000 acres..."

Liu Yong studied the area, which was adjacent to Universal Semiconductor's No. 2 factory. The proximity to the county's largest river, visible in the distance, further piqued his interest.

This location was indeed ideal.

After Director Jin's comprehensive presentation, the delegation embarked on a tour of the industrial park. Liu Yong's focus, however, remained fixed on the previously mentioned area. 

Finally, he couldn't contain his curiosity any longer and inquired, "Mayor Wang, what kind of preferential policies can I expect if I choose to invest and build my factory here?"

Wang Yongwang couldn't hide his excitement. A glimmer of hope emerged. If Liu Yong was interested in this plot of land, it meant the investment might stay in Jinpen County.

A 30-billion-dollar investment!

A factory with an output value exceeding 100 billion!

Wang Yongwang struggled to contain his emotions, choking back his excitement as he responded, "Mr. Liu, if you decide to invest and build your factory here, we will cover the land leveling costs and provide you with the same preferential policies as Universal Semiconductor."

A free plot of land and a slew of preferential policies—Liu Yong found the offer irresistible.

Without hesitation, he declared, "Very well, my factory will be built here!"

The officials of Jinpen County were stunned by his audacity. This wasn't a decision to be made lightly, and the magnitude of the investment was staggering. Wang Yongwang, in particular, was overwhelmed with joy, his face betraying his elation.

Expressing his gratitude, he could only manage a simple yet heartfelt, "Thank you so much."

In that phrase, a multitude of emotions and words remained unspoken. Wang Yongwang's gratitude knew no bounds, and it was a testament to the monumental deal that had just been sealed.
