Reborn Tycoon Rise

"President Shen and President Yu, please take a seat." Two guests came to the office, Xu Zhi greeted politely.

"Xu Sheng, you're welcome. You are so busy and it's us who are bothering you." President Shen replied with a smile.

Xu Zhidao: "President Shen is joking. I like to leave things to my subordinates. I am actually quite relaxed. The two presidents are the busy ones!"

"As long as Xiangjiang can return to the motherland stably and people can live and work in peace and contentment, it will be worth our efforts no matter how hard we work." President Yu said with a smile.

"That's right, I also hope that Xiangjiang can return to normal as soon as possible and the economy can return to normal as soon as possible. In this way, businessmen in Xiangjiang can also have more funds to help develop the domestic economy." Xu Zhi nodded.

Domestic reform and opening up has been going on for several years, but currently, there are not many cooperation projects with Western countries, mainly the acquisition of large overseas production lines and equipment.

For example, in 1979, the mainland and the U.S. government signed cooperation projects such as the Civil Aviation Agreement and the Textile Agreement. In this year, the total trade volume between the two parties was US$2.45 billion, but China was in an absolute deficit position. Although the export volume of some civilian products increased several times, times, but the main transaction is the mainland's purchase of American products, such as aircraft, automobiles, industrial production lines, chemical products, pharmaceutical products, etc., and they are getting a lot of money.

In the same way, the same is true for transactions with developed countries such as Europe and Japan. A large amount of foreign exchange is consumed. It is said that the mainland government must sell a large amount of gold in the international market every year to offset the huge consumption of foreign exchange.

But gold is also limited. An important purpose of reform and opening up is not only to introduce advanced equipment, but also to introduce foreign companies to build factories in the mainland. Because products are exported, the mainland government can earn foreign exchange and at the same time Solve the employment problem of the large number of educated youth returning to cities in China.

It's just that companies in Western countries are not fools. Their main purpose of investing in the mainland is to enter the mainland market and make money from the Chinese people. This is basically not allowed. Therefore, very few actually come to invest. , at most come to Beijing or Shanghai to set up an office.

If Westerners cannot rely on them, they can only rely on the Chinese. As the fusion point between the Chinese nation and the West, Xiangjiang has many factories, and they are all export-oriented. Therefore, a large amount of Xiangjiang capital has entered the country. The method is to build factories in the country, which not only solves the employment problem, but also increases the country’s foreign exchange reserves.

Three to one supplement is the abbreviation of "processing with supplied materials", "assembly with supplied materials", "processing with supplied samples" and "compensation trade". Simply put, it means that foreign parties provide money, raw materials, equipment, invest in building factories, When an order is placed, China is responsible for providing labor for assembly and production, and all final products are sold overseas. Afterwards, according to the original agreement, both parties receive foreign exchange in proportion.

Although under normal circumstances, foreign capital accounts for the majority of profits, a large number of factory owners throughout Hong Kong participate in this business model. In the end, the mainland also obtains huge amounts of foreign exchange from it, making up for the huge deficit caused by overseas purchases.

"Xu Sheng, our Minister Lin greatly appreciates your 20 billion Hong Kong dollar investment plan in Hong Kong. It has always been our highest pursuit that the people of Hong Kong can live and work in peace and contentment." President Shen paused and then said: "But currently in the mainland, There is also a lack of funds needed for development, so I hope that Mr. Xu can not only invest in Xiangjiang, but also introduce capital into the mainland to contribute to the development of the country."

"Then I don't know where I can contribute." Xu Zhi asked with a smile. The mainland has always been short of funds, but at this time, sending someone specially to come here must be that a certain project is in urgent need of investment.

President Shen said: "Mr. Xu, this year has been the fifth year of reform and opening up. In recent years, the mainland's economic development has been rapid, especially in import and export trade, which has been growing at a rate of 30% every year.

However, this also brings some problems. Due to the increase in trade volume, there have been more and more overseas businessmen in the capital in recent years. Has this reception become a big problem? "

"You mean, the capital needs a hotel?" Xu Zhi asked.

President Shen shook his head and said: "No, although the hotels in the capital are still nervous, the construction of hotels can still be solved by the country itself.

Some time ago, some foreign businessmen suggested that a trade center similar to that in Western countries should be built in China to pool many resources together to facilitate business and trade.

The central government also sent people to conduct overseas inspections and discovered that trade centers have many benefits. They can speed up the circulation of goods, information channels, and allow enterprises to obtain support from various financial services. They also know that most countries and large cities around the world have them. own trading center.

Therefore, the central government approved a proposal to build a large-scale trade center in the capital, but the above meaning is that it must either not be built, or it must be good enough, even if it cannot compare with the World Trade Center in New York, it must be a modern building complex.

However, such an investment is somewhat huge and is not necessary for national development. Therefore, the country will not contribute money and hopes to introduce overseas capital to build this project. "

"I understand." Xu Zhi nodded and said. Although the trade center is very important, it cannot compare with the demand for steel, energy, and cutting-edge technology needed for national development. Therefore, the central government will not pay for this kind of real estate investment to be introduced from abroad. Capital is the most convenient.

President Shen and Lao Yu looked at each other and asked, "Is Mr. Xu interested?"

"Then I wonder how much investment this International Trade Center will require?" Xu Zhi asked.

President Shen said: "According to the plan, the International Trade Center is located at the intersection of Chang'an Street and East Third Ring Road in the capital, close to the international embassy district, and includes a Grade A office building, the International Trade Center, a large hotel, two apartment buildings, and a large The shopping mall, an exhibition center and a large conference center have a total construction area of ​​470,000 square meters, and the total investment is estimated to be no less than US$500 million."

"$500 million?"

"Not bad." President Shen nodded awkwardly. When he first learned about this project, he knew that it would be very difficult to operate it with overseas capital.

There are only a handful of Chinese people in the world who can afford such a large amount of money. Moreover, due to the current real estate economic crisis in Hong Kong, many powerful businessmen have begun to shrink their investment strategies. At this time, who is willing to invest 500 million? Dollar?

Businessmen like Hu Yingxiang and Huo Yingdong are definitely willing to invest, but they have already had investment plans elsewhere in the mainland, such as Hu Yingxiang's Guangzhou-Shenzhen Expressway plan and Huo Yingdong's Nansha investment, which have exhausted their funds. , there is nothing you can do even if you want to help.

"If it's US$500 million, it's not a problem, but I have to send someone to the capital to understand the specific situation before I can make a decision." Xu Zhi said calmly, but secretly smiled in his heart.

Beijing International Trade Center, this project is the most profitable CBD project in the entire mainland. In the original history of 1984, Kuok Henian, the richest man in Malaysia and known as the "Sugar King" participated in this project, investing US$530 million in the first batch. In the 1990s and 21st century, the second and third phases of the International Trade Center were built respectively, turning the International Trade Center into a national CBD building complex with a total value of up to 170 billion yuan, and annual rents of up to 5 billion yuan.

Naturally, you can’t miss a project like this.

President Shen said: "Of course, the specific cooperation plan will naturally be negotiated between you and the capital city government. If Mr. Xu agrees, Lao Yu and I will immediately submit a report to the superiors after we return and report this matter .”

"No problem. As long as the central government agrees, I will immediately arrange for people in this field to go to the capital for negotiation." Xu Zhi nodded and agreed.

President Shen and President Yu stood up, shook hands with Xu Zhi, who also stood up, and said with a smile, "Okay, then we won't interrupt."

"You two walk slowly."
