The Industrial Giant Reborn

Chapter 182 The Opening of the Door in 1976
A Volkswagen left from the gate of the Governor's Mansion without attracting the slightest attention. Many cars of this type come and go from here every day.

"Chen Sheng, so both things are done?" Zhou Jiayang said happily after listening to the general description of the boss.

"The matter of the Hung Hom port has been confirmed, and the Hong Kong government has backed down by 10%. This is actually because our next large-scale investment can stimulate Hong Kong's economy and employment on a large scale. The Midea Industrial Park should also be eight or nine. It’s not far away, and if it’s placed in a place like Yuen Long, it can indeed cooperate with the Hong Kong government, and the Hong Kong government is also a beneficiary.” Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

"That's good. The two places I chose in Kowloon have many aborigines or small factories. If we want to buy them all, it will take a lot of effort." Zhou Jiayang said.

"Basically, there is no complete and undeveloped land in the area of ​​Kowloon Peninsula. Those real estate developers are not blind." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile.

Where to build the Midea Industrial Park, there are actually two choices. One is to build it behind the Kowloon Peninsula, but the land price is definitely not cheap. It may be sold to you for free or at a low price, and it is troublesome to deal with the aborigines on this land, but the advantage is that the real estate income will be higher after the industrial transfer in the next ten years or so.

Or choose a suitable place not far from Kowloon to build a factory. The advantage is that the land price is cheap, it is also very convenient, and it is easy to start work. As for the problem of employees, it is actually not difficult to solve. The dormitory is built. It has a policy of all-inclusive eating, drinking and drinking for its internal employees.

Of the two options, the latter is actually more suitable, because compared to the future real estate income, the current factory construction involves the future foundation of multiple industries, which is the most important.

As for the Hong Kong Government's Yuen Long New Town, in fact, Chen Zhiwen also considered that it was a choice between his two plans, but he could not propose it himself. After the Hong Kong Government proposed it, he could take the opportunity to get some benefits.

"As for the Hung Hom side, I need to call for bids for construction companies immediately." Zhou Jiayang said with a smile.

The development of the Hung Hom Port site was a strategy set several months ago. Therefore, Hutchison entrusted two design companies for residential design a long time ago.

This is not looking for Bei Jinming. He is a top architectural design master, not a Hong Kong dwelling house design master. In this aspect, Master Bei may not be as good as a local expert?
The floor area ratio is calculated based on the average data of nearby residential buildings. If the floor area ratio issued by the Hong Kong government is low, He Huang will naturally try to negotiate again. If the negotiation fails, several buildings can be removed.

In short, I would rather spend a little more money, but I must be prepared first. Anyway, the cost of designing this kind of ordinary community is much worse than asking Master Bei to design an office building.

As for the bidding construction company, no matter how urgent the time is, it is not possible to start spreading the word before the industrial transfer is completed. With such a wise operation, the Hong Kong government will feel sorry for itself if it does not kill you.

"Let's let the wind out first, and when the procedures for transferring from industry to business are completed, we will formally invite bids immediately. However, there is a condition that all construction workers need to pay the most basic living expenses every month. They cannot be dragged by real estate companies like other real estate projects. The construction company, the construction company drags the contractor, and the contractor drags the workers, this is what I promised Governor MacLehose." Chen Zhiwen said.

Zhou Jiayang said: "Understood, I heard that several construction workers jumped off the building recently because they have not been paid, and some have not been paid for two years, causing some human tragedies. Governor Hao probably made this request in consideration of this."

"The most important thing is the economy. If the economy is not good, there will be a lot of problems in society." Chen Zhiwen shook his head gently.

There will be no absolute fairness in any society, no matter how perfect the law is, but when the economy grows rapidly, everyone can benefit. The difference is that the strong get more, but the weak can also get some benefits. In this way , the society will be stable, and this is the fundamental reason why so many countries attach importance to the economy. Without the economy, there is nothing. Only with the economy can the common people live and work in peace and contentment, and the government can have tax revenue to develop infrastructure and military, forming the foundation of a country.

Although it is a bit clichéd, real estate is indeed the fastest way to drive the economy, because it can not only bring a large number of jobs, but also create countless "virtual wealth", which is also part of consumer confidence. Going out to consume and buy things will drive more employment and form a virtuous circle.

Zhou Jiayang nodded and said: "Chen Sheng is right. Hong Kong law does have some protection for low-level construction workers, but in the past two years, so many real estate companies went bankrupt, and construction companies went bankrupt. No matter how good the law is, people go bankrupt. It's useless."

"This is still the government's business. We just need to take care of our subordinates." Chen Zhiwen said: "Christmas + New Year's Day will soon come, and there should be nothing serious about Hutchison Huang. During this period of rest, we will fight again next year. In one year, Hutchison can really turn around."

"Okay, thank you Chen Sheng." The Zhou family Yang said with a smile. After all kinds of efforts in the past six months, Hehuang can be said to have stabilized the major creditor banks in terms of debts, but there are still many debts owed. Less.

However, various difficulties have been slowly resolved in 1975, and the next year will be the time when all kinds of rewards come into hand.

On January 1976, 1, Repulse Bay, Chen's Villa:

"Come here. Eat Yuanzi." Wu Xiuling held a plate of meatballs and put them into the hot pot with a smile.

Today's New Year's Day, the Chen family gave all the housekeepers and other servants a holiday. Of course, it was not to save money, but it was just not necessary to let these people not be at home during the festival, but to run out to work. Less red envelopes, as red envelopes for festivals.

It is also a pleasure for the whole family to prepare meals together. Today at noon, the Chen family decided to eat hot pot. In the morning, several people made meatballs together, and bought some vegetables, prawns, sliced ​​meat, and so on.

After a while, the pot of hot pot became hot, and the smoke was billowing. Fortunately, he was not at home, but in the sun room on the top floor.

It was raining outside, but there was no coolness in the sun room. The whole villa had a constant temperature system that controlled all rooms, including the sun room and the garage.

"Dad, what happened to the inland matter you mentioned last time?" The family got together, and Chen Zhiwen suddenly thought of this matter again.

"I have already contacted, but because I don't have any basic information, just a name, plus I can only ask professionals to draw a picture based on memory, and let their people first look for schools in Yanjing City." Chen Tianfu said.

"Are you looking for a needle in a haystack?" Wu Xiuling said.

Chen Tianfu shrugged and said, "That's okay, anyway, if I offer 2 Hong Kong dollars, the other party will treat me as a big customer. I also told them that the sooner they find it, the more money I will give him. If you find it within half a year, you will be given 30 yuan, and after half a year, you will be given 20 yuan, and so on, if you can’t find it again, there is no way.”

"Don't worry, maybe one day the country will allow ordinary people to enter the country. It may be more convenient for us to go to the mainland and find some truly capable people." Chen Zhiwen said.

In another three years, the country will be officially reopened, and my status is enough to let Xinhua News Agency help with this matter. This is the right way, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future, and I can't stop my father's hope now.

"That's right, I also feel this trend. I really want to go back to my hometown." Chen Tianfu said with a smile.

"Soon, don't worry." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile: "Any country needs an economy, and it's the same in China. The dollar will always be a hard currency."

"Then we have to work hard." Chen Tianfu smiled and said: "In 1976, set a small goal first, and I, Hengyi, will make a net profit of [-] million."

On January 1, Chen Zhiwen, who received a call from the Governor's Mansion, came to the Governor's Mansion in secret again, and had a one-hour closed-door negotiation with MacLehoda on the final agreement.

On January 1, Hutchison officially announced that it has reached an agreement with the Hong Kong government to transfer the 7 million-square-foot industrial land in the original Hung Hom Port to commercial use at a price of 4.3 million Hong Kong dollars, and obtain a plot ratio of 200. for development.

At this point, the whole of Hong Kong was in an uproar.
