My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 278: Pretending to be powerful also has the magical power of wedding clothes

The next night, the Hong Kong businessmen withdrew with satisfaction.

If Weidong hadn't woken up early the next morning, he would have rushed to the city to report and have a talk.

Discussing the bloody history of Hong Kong real estate developers hoarding land for development, driving up housing prices, and even "potentially" acquiring land in mainland China at low prices, waiting a decade or two for the economy to improve before redeveloping and reselling it. This is a trick they've already used in neighboring Southeast Asia...

It was all because information was not well developed at that time, and I made up this story based on what I heard through various means during my inspection in HK. Even if it was not true, I had to guard against it strictly.

The people in the city were shocked by their desperate begging and pleading, and they realized that these old wolves were really cruel.

There may be various variables involved in this matter.

This is why the news of the 3 billion Hong Kong businessman investing in commercial real estate did not immediately appear on the news of the Central News Agency and the Central Daily News.

It only made the second headline on the front page of Jiangzhou’s local daily newspaper.

But this has immediately attracted inquiries from provinces and cities across the country, not to mention that many news organizations immediately requested to contact Jiangzhou City to confirm more in-depth details.

Dong Xueqing, who finally returned to work after her vacation, said after get off work that the number of long-distance calls during the entire day shift had skyrocketed!

Maybe even the city didn't let Weidong know about this quantitative popularity.

The daily long-distance call volume in Jiangzhou is around 10,000, and there won't be much fluctuation if there are no exhibitions or events.

The last time the sanitary napkin factory was "forced" to withdraw, the number of long-distance call transfer orders soared to 18,000.

This day it easily broke through 27,000!
If the last time was just because Brick TV reported on the setbacks in private enterprise reform and spread the information.

This time, the news was spread purely by Jiangzhou's local newspapers in the region, but it was quickly spread by various local informants, onlookers, and salesmen who were related to other places, provinces, cities, and news organizations.

Naturally, countless calls came in seeking confirmation.

Jiangzhou City’s real estate construction and development company is not the first in the country. Since the policy was introduced in 80, companies have been established in various parts of the country.

But at that time it was called a cooperative housing construction contract, so the unit could only entrust the real estate company to find a construction company to build the house.

It’s a bit like a manufacturer making an advertisement, they can only find an advertising agency to shoot and produce it and then broadcast it on TV.

This middle link is added to ensure that no problems occur.

Under the planned economy, this setting is a bit like taking off your pants to fart. It is completely redundant. Ordinary people cannot understand why this intermediate link must be set up. In fact, it is to prevent unscrupulous capitalists from taking over the whole process and doing whatever they want.

It's like asking Weidong and his team to quickly skip the advertising agency, find ways to get the advertising company's production capabilities, obtain the agency's qualifications, and then they can directly face the TV station for placement.

This qualification of the real estate company must be super impressive, and everyone in later generations knows it.

But right now, real estate companies across the country don’t know what to do.

Because no company wants to cooperate with them in building houses, they have no work to do.

Individuals are not qualified to propose cooperation in building houses. State-owned enterprises have stopped providing financial support and are unable to take care of themselves. The newly emerging private enterprises are not yet at the stage where they have the money to build houses.

As for building and selling them myself, I never even thought about it before the commercial housing market was launched.

Who dares to buy and sell real estate?

Well, what Jiangzhou has started now is that foreign and Hong Kong businessmen come to Jiangzhou to invest and entrust real estate companies to cooperate in building houses. The letter of intent is 3 billion!

Weidong had no idea how the city had racked its brains to circumvent restrictions as much as possible and find a reasonably reasonable skirting of the rules for the country's first private real estate company.

It is not the Hong Kong businessmen themselves who invest in building houses, but rather the Hong Kong capital that provides the money and entrusts private real estate companies to establish the projects, which are then handed over to construction companies to start construction.

This immediately caused real estate companies across the country to panic. How could they still do this?
As long as I can find foreign capital, investment from Hong Kong and Taiwan, or purely local funds, I can build a house?

This suddenly makes sense. As long as any private enterprise can get money, it can find a real estate company to cooperate in building houses, right?

And the most explosive part of this news is that this private real estate company jointly owned by Hong Kong businessmen was actually allowed to be established.

This is definitely the first one.

State-owned real estate companies all have a mentality of not seeking to achieve anything but to avoid making mistakes. They will never explore and test the dangerous edges of commercial housing construction.

But if private real estate companies, or more precisely, private enterprises, could enter the real estate market, it would definitely lead to a complete revolution.

Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, many reforms regarding land and housing have caused a stir.

Is this starting again?
There have been countless capable people who have been eyeing the real estate industry and are eager to jump into this industry full of gold.

Just those people who were qualified and had connections to come to Hong Kong know better than 99% of Chinese people that real estate is an industry that can make you get rich quickly.

Most of the wealthy people in Hong Kong are real estate developers.

I guess only Weidong knows clearly that the real estate industry is a guillotine made of gold.

The others all wanted to rush in madly.

Even You Qili called Rang Weidong to ask if the real estate market has started?
Weidong really wanted to ask, you have completed several deals now, and you can't even pay the interest on the bank loans, so you are starting to think about real estate again?

So the whole Jiangzhou was in chaos in an instant.

When Weidong accompanied Lao Heng and the others to the airport, they all felt that this dual-use military and civilian airport suddenly became much busier and more crowded.

Many people have been talking about real estate since they came out...

There was no such thing as VIP lounges back then, and even train stations hadn’t developed music teahouses.

Even the departure and arrival are in the same hall.

There are no seats yet.

Lao Heng and the others followed Rang Weidong to feel the excitement in the bustling flight hall.

Qin Yuye changed into a beige coat and stood there side by side, attracting a lot of attention.

Hong Kong businessmen have some confidence: "There is huge room for future development."

Let Weidong describe something that will be commonplace in a major country forty years from now: "Thirty provincial-level cities like this are roughly equivalent to the urban scale of all of Southeast Asia, or even Europe. With a population of 200 to 300 million, no borders, no language barriers, and a vast land area with free travel, it's a market only rivaled by Citibank, though it's a bit poor. Do you think there's any business to be had?" Tonight, I took Hong Kong businessmen to dinner at the culinary training center at Jiangzhou Hotel. An old man was fascinated by the meal and said, "The mainland does have a solid foundation. Even with all the shabby places, there's still a tradition of exquisite cuisine. Xiaodong, hire a few chefs and open a restaurant in Hong Kong. I'll take care of the storefront and the ingredients."

Rang Weidong had no objection to letting more craftsmen make big money first: "Okay, but you have to wait. I want to select people from here to go to Pingjing to open a representative office in Beijing. I want to make Jiangzhou's food famous in Pingjing and make it more convenient for people to travel to Pingjing. Then I can organize people to go to Hong Kong..."

The wealthy old men immediately understood: "Are you in charge of this?"

Rang Weidong certainly wasn't bragging: "I have a factory in Pingjing. This is a very delicate matter. Normally, a city like ours can't set up an office, but as a pioneer in reform, we need to do so. The specifications after approval are neither too high nor too low, so having a private enterprise run it can reduce the number of complaints."

In fact, the routine used forty years later is outsourcing.

Because if we do this according to the city's regulations, there must be a system and explanations, and the specifications and grades are more restricted.

If you do something wrong, you will be in big trouble.

But if Weidong does it, it won’t be so sensitive.

Lao Heng and the others immediately rubbed their hands: "Come on, come on, we're just having trouble finding a place to stay."

It’s not that there are no hotels to stay in, but the reception standards are also very sensitive.

They must have tried to communicate, but it just didn't feel right.

I feel like it would be better to have a place like this to buffer the situation.

Just think about letting Weidong live in that foreign-related hotel. It was designed and invested by foreign investors, and it was built and started to be operated cooperatively. However, some people still think it is unacceptable to give shares to foreign parties.

So this kind of business thinking still has a process of transformation.

Rang Weidong quickly shook his head: "This is Jiangzhou's own office. How could it possibly be mixed with Hong Kong capital? We have to distinguish them clearly."

The hotelier wasn't embarrassed: "We'll provide you with all the hotel equipment, designers, and operational training. You spend the money you need, and we'll give you a discount. The key is to form this kind of partnership. At least we have something to say, instead of going there with no place to stay... You know that feeling."

Weidong felt a bit like he was in Infernal Affairs. Indeed, all parties looked at Hong Kong businessmen as they wanted their money but were also on guard against the flood of capitalists.

Not to mention the arrogant Mr. Jing.

This made Weidong more able to adjust: "Then I will report the progress and coordinate."

Several companies only left two assistants in Jiangzhou, and it is obvious that they will soon be replaced by ordinary white-collar workers stationed in Jiangzhou.

Maybe Qin Yuye’s team will be responsible for the preparatory work.

In the early stages, Weidong was basically in charge of the situation, and they only sent people to monitor the progress and provide payment.

It was obvious that Weidong was not a liar and would not ask for an exorbitant amount of money. To be honest, it might be easier for him to ask for money.

"I want a factory, a factory that can make you money. Build it as soon as possible. This will also be a model room you can show to everyone..."

Weidong's statement was unanimously recognized.

Perhaps this is also the characteristic that makes Weidong most different from other mainland people who have dealings with Hong Kong businessmen.

It can clearly help them get immediate returns in the short term.

It can be said that any other channels to lobby Hong Kong businessmen to invest in the mainland are currently unable to do so.

The mainland's own business environment has not been well developed, and with all kinds of precautions, there is no guarantee that Hong Kong businessmen will be able to make money when they come in.

Moreover, the atmosphere in HK is not that everyone is enthusiastic about going north, and the British government, which has been in power for more than ten years, has to focus on making trouble.

At present, the economic lifeline of Hong Kong is still in the hands of big companies and foreign companies that have been operating for nearly a hundred years.

There is also a lot of team-building among Hong Kong businessmen.

Going to Pingjing with such fanfare was indeed a bit eye-catching, so it's just right to come to Jiangzhou to relax for a few years.

Let Weidong promote this.

Qin Yuye nodded as seriously as possible. Her listening ability to Mandarin has skyrocketed in the past two days.

At this moment, another flight may have arrived, and many passengers were walking out with large and small bags, and the scene was a bit crowded.

This is truly rare in an era when ordinary people cannot even get on a plane.

But it may be these Hong Kong businessmen, plus their assistants and entourage in suits, who have such aura.

It's very eye-catching standing there.

Jin Zhuoqun came out with a group of people. He was surprised to see them. "Weidong? Are you here to pick us up?"

When Weidong turned around, he saw not only Wang Zhiwen surrounded by the crowd like a sickly girl, but also Yu Xiaoqiu, with a joyful face, looking at the beautiful woman in white next to her.

What was the name of Mr. Jing who had followed Jin Zhuoqun to the sanitary napkin factory before?

The young man bowed and said, "I knew this was all related to you. What's the matter? Are you dissatisfied with the lack of money and are you starting to invest in something as big as real estate?"

I didn't notice just now, but there were two people in military uniforms greeting him behind him.

Now that it was confirmed that the person had been picked up, many men in serious and neat military uniforms immediately came in from outside!
They carried the various equipment and boxes brought out by this group of people in a disciplined manner.

Lao Heng and the others were shocked, especially by this powerful subduing display.

This is the scene they fear the most.

As a result, Weidong was seen smiling and greeting people one by one.

They couldn't help but take two steps back in unison, looking at each other with joy.

This person made the right investment.

It is indeed not necessary to do everything yourself.
