Chief Han Dongtian had been having a hard time these few days. The two meetings were about to be held, but the pressure on the city's finances was great. It would not look good if he was questioned at the People's Congress. Although it was not a big problem to remove the word "Dai" from his head during the two sessions, his rapid promotion also exposed his shallow foundation. Wu Teng, the newly appointed secretary of the municipal party committee, was already in his sixties. He could only hope to retire in this position. Usually, it was a pleasure to work with Kan Dongtian. However, Kan Dongtian had overthrown Chief Ding Weiyong and a group of local officials. He had established his strong position, while the other deputy chiefs in the city had remained where they were. He had even left a bad impression in the eyes of the provincial leaders. They did not dare to make trouble openly, but they could still slack off.
Han Dongtian urgently needed a big fire to stir up the stagnant Nine Capital officialdom. However, a clever housewife could not cook a meal without rice. There were many large state-owned enterprises in Jiudu, and their burdens were very heavy. They had a lot of historical debts, and their profits had not been good in the past few years. There were already a considerable number of laid-off workers in the open and in the dark. The main force of Li Dengyun's underground arsenal was the laid-off workers of these large factories.
The city's finances had been very tight in recent years. At the end of last year, he had even auctioned off the old house of the city government. The money he earned was just a drop in the bucket. Therefore, when Yang Xing asked to see him, he immediately agreed. Through various channels, he had already learned how this young man who was not even twenty years old had gone from penniless to a billionaire in less than a year. The last time the Nine Capital officialdom was shaken, this young man's figure also swayed behind him. He also had an inexplicable expectation for this young man. Perhaps this time, he could use his golden finger to turn stone into gold for him?
Mid-March was Yang Xing's 20th birthday. People of his generation were used to celebrating their birthdays on the Gregorian calendar, but his parents still preferred celebrating their birthdays on the lunar calendar. Yang Xing did not have much of an impression of birthdays in his previous life. He only felt that he could eat better on that day. After all, he was already a millionaire in this life. In Japan, today was considered his coming-of-age ceremony. Therefore, at his mother's request, he organized a few tables at the Golden Valley Garden Hotel to entertain some relatives and friends. However, the arrival of Han Dongtian in person still shocked everyone. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the chief was the god of ordinary people.
Looking at how close Chief Kan and Yang Xing's parents were, some people guessed that Yang Rongguang and the others had a relationship with Chief Kan, so they bought the villa of the former Municipal Party Secretary without any scruples. Han Dongtian was not interested in what others thought of him. As long as Yang Xing could help him solve the problem at hand, he would be happy to express his goodwill.
After the banquet, Han Dongtian and Yang Xing went back to the small conference room to sit down. However, Yang Xing only invited Yu Fen this time. Yu Fen was in her fifties and had a fair and clean personality. She had a very steady personality. After the previous earthquake in the Nine Capital officialdom, she had unexpectedly taken the throne of the most important secretary of the Xicheng District and entered the position of the municipal committee member. She was considered a late bloomer and was also one of Han Dongtian's direct descendants in the Nine Capital.
However, Yu Fen, who was an experienced official, knew how much power this young man had, so she never interfered with her son's relationship with him. When they planned to get rid of Li Dengyun behind her and Deng Lei's back, she also turned a blind eye. For the first time, Han Dongtian introduced his secretary to Yang Xing. He was a tall man in his thirties named Yu Yuanwei. Yang Xing had heard from Wang Yiren that Han Dongtian had taken up the position alone. The last time they had a secret meeting here, Han Dongtian did not have this person by his side. He recalled that he had recently heard that Han Dongtian had moved his wife and daughter to the Nine Cities. He could tell that Han Dongtian was ready to take root in the Nine Cities and make a big move. Yang Xing wanted to turn Jiudu into his solid rear. Since Han Dongtian had such intentions, he naturally had to cater to his preferences.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, everyone went straight to the point. Han Dongtian first congratulated Yang Xing on his success in Shanghai. The circle of princes was relatively small. The news that Young Master Wang had made a fortune in futures had long spread in the circle. Many people envied the ability of Yang Xing, the " good fortune boy " behind him. He indirectly asked Yang Xing about the 100 million yuan investment direction of the provincial investment company. Obviously, he was very envious of this money. Han Dongtian obviously felt that Yang Xing was being too forceful to support the municipal construction of the Nine Cities with his own money. However, the money of the provincial investment company was like a piece of Tang Sanzang's flesh. Everyone wanted to take a bite. In the past, they had no way to do so. Now that the opportunity was in front of them, they should seize it quickly.
Yang Xing did not agree with this idea. The provincial state investment company invested in him because they were counting on his ability to make money to double the money as soon as possible. What benefit would there be in investing in the municipal construction of Jiudu? It would be better to invest directly in the municipal construction of the mall. At least the leaders of the provincial investment company lived in the provincial capital, so they could more or less enjoy the convenience. However, he could not say such words in front of the chief. Yang Xing could only draw a big cake to satisfy his hunger.
He first took out a book and handed it to Kan Dongtian. Yu Fen and Yu Yuanwei both saw the words "Li Ka-shing Biography" on the cover. Although Li Ka-shing would only be officially crowned the richest man in China next year, he was still a well-known name at home and abroad. Kan Dongtian and the others were familiar with his deeds. He didn't know why Yang Xing suddenly brought up his autobiography.
Yang Xing explained," Everyone knows that Li Ka-shing made his fortune by selling plastic flowers, but what really made him rich was the real estate business. He started investing in the real estate market in 1958. His " Changjiang Industry " was mainly engaged in real estate. Last year, his company earned 2.8 billion US dollars and had a total market value of more than 40 billion US dollars. He was a real estate tycoon who was ashamed of himself. There was a classic quote in this book: The three most important conditions for real estate were location! Position! Position!" Yang Xing unfolded the map of Jiudu City that he had bought at Xinhua Bookstore and pointed at the center of the map."Chief Kan has long discovered that this location is superior, so he specially vacated the city government's land. Now, I have a plan. As long as we revitalize this land, we can guarantee that we can solve the pressure on the city's finances.”
Yu Fen was very familiar with this place. This was her main jurisdiction of the Xicheng District District. Yang Xing was referring to the heart of the West District, the Central Garden. This was originally the intersection of the north-south Zhongzhou Avenue and the east-west Peony Avenue of the main road of Jiudu. It was the only way to reach all directions of the city.
In the early 1990s, this place was converted into a large roundabout. In the middle of the roundabout was the best fountain park in Jiudu at that time. It was a good place for the citizens to rest. This place was the most prosperous place in Jiudu, with the number one department store, Jiudu branch of the four state-owned banks, Red Flag Movie Theater, the post office building, and the original city government building. It was usually crowded with people, and the crowds who came here to play on weekends could not even squeeze through.
This was also the reason why there was not much resistance when Ding Weiyong proposed to relocate the city government. After all, anyone who saw the chaotic crowd at the entrance of the city government all day would not be in a good mood. The pressure of the crowd also caused the traffic to become a big problem.
Yang Xing used his hand to draw a circle with the garden in the middle of the street as the origin and said to Fen,"Auntie Yu should be very familiar with this place.”Yu Fen saw that this circle basically covered all the high-end buildings in the city center. She estimated and said,"About 30,000 square meters."
Yang Xing continued," More or less. Look, build a pedestrian street here. Let Zhongzhou Road and Mudan Road take an intersection. Then, connect this area into a CPhD business district. Then, build a few high-end business buildings. Put the headquarters of the major banks and the post office inside. This place was designated as an entertainment and leisure area. It had been rebuilt into a Jiudu custom street area. Inside, the customs of Jiudu, famous snacks, opera performances, and so on were concentrated. It was called history. The municipal garden and the central garden next to it were merged into a special green space. The square in front of it was open to hold all kinds of large-scale gatherings, allowing the people to move freely here. It was called the present."Further over is a special shopping area. Build a futuristic shopping mall. City 100, Tiangong Commercial Building, Red Flag Movie Theater, and Xiaoxiao Movie City are all placed inside. All the food, drinks, and entertainment are settled inside. It's called the future…"
Yang Xing talked non-stop for nearly half an hour. He had always felt regretful that Jiudu had not formed a complete business circle after more than ten years. Now that he had the opportunity to make up for it, he naturally put in a lot of effort. He did not consider building any ordinary houses from the beginning. What was there to be proud of when competing with the people? It was better to directly start with commercial real estate and luxury houses. The high-end route was the way to go.
After saying that, he raised his head to look, but the other three people did not know whether to laugh or cry. He slapped his forehead and remembered that in 1995, pedestrian streets, central business districts, shopping malls, and other concepts had long been popular overseas. Kan Dongtian and the others knew about it, but it was still a new thing in China. After the domestic reform, the first elementary commercial pedestrian street only appeared in 1997. The high-end pedestrian street that Yang Xing described as a multi-functional place where people could eat, live, travel, shop, and entertain appeared even later. Moreover, according to Yang Xing's description, the investment of hundreds of millions would have been spent. If it was really discussed at the Standing Committee, Han Dongtian would be the first to reject this suggestion.
Yang Xing knew their concerns and said with a smile,"Do you think my proposal is too advanced and expensive? This kind of pedestrian street will become the best combination of business and tourism. Foreign countries have long had models, but we don't have them here. The main reason is that the concept has not yet formed. If this place could become the first pedestrian street in the country and form a certain scale, it would definitely be a model for the whole country. Soon, it would be this year's Peony Festival. At that time, foreign guests would gather. Throwing out this plan could attract the attention of many outsiders.
After the project was completed, the Peony Festival could be used as an opportunity to attract more people to Nine Capital for sightseeing, tourism, and shopping. It would become a new hot spot for tourism in Nine Capital. As for the funding problem, I'm the initiator of this plan. I don't dare to go to Liangshan without three or two. If we need the city to pay, how can we show the ability of our Star Wealth Investment Company? I promise the city that we don't need to pay a single cent. When the time comes, we only need the city and district's policy support.”The eyes of Han Dongtian and the others lit up. Yang Xing's plan sounded very encouraging, but the fatal problem was that the scale of investment was contrary to the financial situation of the city. If Yang Xing were to solve all of it, it was likely that the Standing Committee would approve it.
Especially when Han Dongtian heard Yang Xing mention the first pedestrian street in the country, he was even more moved. Nine Capital had many national firsts in the 1950s and 1960s. After the reform, history and policies made Nine Capital disappear into a second-tier city. If this project could really become a model project that attracted the attention of the whole country, this achievement alone would make his political path to the province and even the central government particularly smooth.
