Chapter 608 Taking Off (4000 words)
On the thirteenth day of Putin’s tenure as deputy head of the Presidential Administration, the entire province witnessed the friendship between the two.

"A big order has come in from Russia. Neva Petroleum Technology Consulting Company wants to purchase a batch of supporting equipment for heating fuel oil systems, with a contract value of two million US dollars. They specifically named Lin Xiaohe, the district head of the Tie Nan District of the provincial capital, as their partner."

"My God! Lin Xiaohe actually managed to get through to the Russian oil market!"

"If I remember correctly, Neva Petroleum Technology Consulting is their joint venture, right? What's the difference between this and just transferring money from one hand to the other?"

"What's going on? Can anyone explain how this was done? Neva Petroleum Technology Consulting is a newly established company. Where did they get so much funding?"

Lin Xiaohe's office phone rang all day. She could refuse many calls, but there were always some she couldn't refuse.

"Boss, yes, that's right, the $200 order is genuine. Neva Petroleum Technology Consulting has taken on the project to replace the heating oil system in the Moscow City Hall. The project is on a tight schedule, and they require us to deliver the goods within two months."

Lin Xiaohe took the fax. The supply list included: oil-fired boiler burners, heat exchangers, circulating pumps, frequency conversion control systems, various valves and pipes, all of which were the province's strengths.

The provincial party committee office on the other end of the phone also had this fax.

A senior provincial leader confirmed: "It was Pukin who did it."

Lin Xiaohe: "Yes, he included Neva Petroleum Technology Consulting Company in the list of franchisees and then put it up for tender. Our Tiexi District has good quality and low prices, so it was selected."

Uh……

Isn't this a shady operation?
Okay, this can't be brought up in public.

Two million US dollars was not enough to sway the provincial leadership; what they valued more was the oil plan that Lin Xiaohe had proposed.

The top leader pondered for a moment, his hesitant gaze turning firm: "Let's start the pilot program with this $200 million order."

"Yes, sir!"

The scent of money gave the news wings, and it spread throughout the entire Tienan District in half a day.

That afternoon, the director of the provincial capital boiler factory blocked the entrance to the district government.

The man, in his fifties, was wearing faded work clothes and carrying a plastic bag containing a thick stack of product manuals.

“Forestry area,” he said, standing in the corridor, his voice soft but firm, “our factory can produce burners and heat exchangers. In the 1980s, we supplied Baogang with supporting equipment; we have the blueprints, processes, and workers. As long as you place an order, we guarantee delivery within two months.”

Lin Xiaohe instructed her secretary, Li Bo, to accept the documents, saying, "We will conduct a unified review."

He had barely left when the sales manager of the provincial capital's valve factory arrived. Then came the sales managers from the provincial capital's motor factory, instrument factory, transformer factory…

A queue formed in the corridor; some people carried thermos cups, some carried folders, and some even carried samples.

Li Bo secretly told Lin Xiaohe, "District Chief, the downstairs reception room is already full. They said they won't leave until they see you."

Even more anxious than these people are the companies originally slated for the third batch of pilot programs.

As soon as they received the news, they immediately sent people over, saying urgently, "Linqu, our production line has been modified. We can't let them work for nothing."

"Boss, let us handle the task. We're ready to start production anytime."

Seeing this, some of the slow-moving pilot enterprises worked overnight to improve their production lines, organize workers to learn new technologies, and send people to wait at the district government, determined to protect their factory orders!
This time it was only 200 million, but next time it might be 400 million or 600 million.

The principle that having connections in high places makes things easier is universal.

Three days later, the orders were sent out, mostly to the companies originally scheduled for the third batch of pilot programs, while a small number of pilot companies were eliminated due to their lack of enthusiasm.

The setting sun outside the window dyed the factory buildings in Tiexi District a dark red, and smoke was still billowing from the distant chimneys. Tienan District, seeing hope, felt as if it had been injected with a powerful stimulant, and its heart began to beat again.

On August 23, the province approved the "Eastward Relocation and Westward Construction Plan" proposed by Lin Xiaohe. The first phase of the plan involves the relocation of 37 key enterprises from North Second Road to the development zone. Before the end of the year, 13 enterprises will be relocated, with construction commencing immediately.

Lin Xiaohe hung up the phone, stood by the window, and looked at the Tiexi District in the distance. Soon, there would be activity in those gray, gloomy factory buildings.

August 28, North Second Road.

The relocation and renovation projects of the first batch of 13 enterprises have officially broken ground.

The head of the development zone was furious, but he had no choice but to accept the fact.

The picture tube factory was the first.

The factory manager stood at the factory gate, watching as the walls of the old factory building were demolished, raising a cloud of dust.

The workers gathered around, some silent, some whispering.

"Old Liu," an older worker approached, "are we really going to move to the development zone?"

"Yes. The forestry department said that the new factory over there is three times larger than this one, and the equipment is also newer."

The old worker nodded, then shook his head, and finally sighed, "I've been in this lousy place for thirty years, and I'm really a little reluctant to leave."

The bulldozers roared as they tore down the last wall. When the dust settled, only devastation remained.

At the same time, the wind in the province completely changed.

Those who had been the most vocal opponents suddenly fell silent.

Some people whispered among themselves, "That Lin Xiaohe has powerful connections."

Some people said sourly, "So what if he got an order through connections?"

But more people are beginning to re-evaluate this young female cadre.

The Tienan District, like a heavy, broken gear, finally started operating as Lin Xiaohe had planned, thanks to her patching and pushing.

Lin Xiaohe, wearing a safety helmet, stood at the construction site, the golden sunlight shining on her as if gilding her with a golden coat.

With the new production line of Shenyang Blower Works Group starting operation and the old picture tube factory being reduced to ruins, the divine authority of the entire Tienan District was finally shaken.

Strands of divine power flowed into Lin Xiaohe's body, making her heavy body feel light and her five senses more acute.

Ah, that long-lost feeling of power...

It is difficult to describe the characteristics of these divine powers in words. If we compare it to a jar of wine, the first taste is a sorrowful bitterness, followed by a thick and rich flavor, and in the end, the sweet aftertaste is a true heart that never forgets its original intention.

This is a divine aura completely different from that of the Black Hole Interstellar Federation and Blue Star. It is not as powerful as the former two, but it is more grounded and more delicate, silently embracing all things like the earth.

Lin Xiaohe was really looking forward to seeing what would happen to the divine authority after she reclaimed all of it from the node world.

While she was still in a daze, she received a call from Wang Shuxiang: "Are you going to start selling the land in those old factory areas in your Tienan District?"

Lin Xiaohe: "You're very well-informed."

"Of course," Wang Shuxiang smiled. "Our Pang Donglai wants to take one."

Lin Xiaohe was taken aback: "Doesn't Pang Donglai have a branch in the provincial capital?"

"It's not an ordinary supermarket. We want to build a large commercial complex. The first floor will have a supermarket and department store, the second floor will have restaurants and a children's playground, and the third floor will have a cinema and a gym. We'll also build a few residential buildings on top and a parking lot on the bottom. It will be a one-stop shopping destination with everything you need."

Lin Xiaohe was surprised. Wasn't this Wanda Plaza? Wanda Plaza wouldn't open until 2003.

Wang Shuxiang got it done so quickly?
Hey, this is actually quite a promising opportunity.

Lin Xiaohe: "Do you know how much the land price is in the Tienan District now? Although it's a low-price period, it's still not a small amount for you."

“I know.” Wang Shuxiang stopped smiling. “We just think that since you’re going to all this trouble to renovate the old city, it means you’re optimistic about commercial real estate. We don’t have that kind of foresight, so let’s just follow the smart people and invest. Money isn’t a problem. With Pang Donglai’s cash flow, banks are very willing to lend to us.”

Lin Xiaohe: "Okay, we can do it. Are you planning to operate it yourself or recruit merchants?" "Half self-operated, half recruited merchants. The merchants recruited can't just do whatever they want; they have to meet our Pang Donglai product selection requirements."

Lin Xiaohe didn't say anything more. Wang Shuxiang had grown up and knew the importance of the brand. She wouldn't do anything to ruin Pang Donglai's reputation.

The sun was shining brightly, and Lin Xiaohe's mood became even more beautiful.

Going with the flow is the easiest way, haha, the situation in Tienan District has reversed, it's her turn to take advantage of the situation!
On August 31, 1996, the first auction of land in the Tienan District was held at the provincial capital's land transaction center.

This is the largest centralized land sale in the old industrial zone of Tienan since the implementation of the paid land use system in the provincial capital. The auction hall was packed with people.

There were real estate developers from Shenzhen, property speculators from Wenzhou, and local entrepreneurs who were among the first to venture into the business world.

The provincial television station and major newspapers all sent reporters to cover the story.

"Plot No. 1, the former site of the provincial capital's cathode ray tube factory, covers an area of ​​9,000 square meters, with a starting price of 600 yuan per square meter."

The moment the auctioneer finished speaking, everyone was shocked!

How many?!
The Wenzhou businessman picked at his ears in disbelief, wondering if he had misheard. "What happened to the agreed-upon 200 yuan per square meter? How did they lure people in to rip them off?"

For a moment, no one raised a sign.

Wang Shuxiang was overjoyed. "Oh my god, no one's taking it!"
With a mere 540 million, Pang Donglai doesn't even need to take out a loan!

Wang Shuxiang held up her sign high: "600!"

Before anyone could react, the auctioneer struck the gavel three times: "600 three times, sold! The 50-year land use right for 9000 square meters of land belongs to Pang Donglai Limited Liability Company."

The auctioneer was sweating profusely; the speed at which he had swung the gavel just now was the fastest he had ever done in his career.

He was afraid that the woman who raised her paddle would change her mind, causing the first auction to fail. If that happened, the land use rights auction would become a joke, and where would that leave the face of the forestry district, city, and provincial leaders?!
The auctioneer calmly wiped the sweat from his palms on his trouser leg and continued, "Plot number two, Area A of the CRT factory residential area, with an area of ​​3000 square meters, and a price of 650 yuan per square meter."

Don't ask him why smaller plots of land are more expensive; he doesn't know either. The price was set by the forestry district against all odds.

Because of this, city and provincial leaders haven't slept well for more than ten days; they're all very anxious and stressed.

The Land Bureau's attitude is that they'd be lucky to sell it for 200 yuan; if they set the price at 600 yuan, they're afraid the auction will turn upside down!
Everyone was dumbfounded. Why were the prices getting higher and higher?

Wang Shuxiang perked up. Although the price of plot No. 2 was higher, the area was smaller, and the total price was only 195 million, which was within her budget.

Wang Shuxiang raised her sign again: "650!"

The auctioneer was extremely grateful. The hammer flashed, leaving afterimages, and swish, swish, swish: "Sold!"

No!

What's going on here? Is this really not an act?
There was much discussion at the scene: "Who is this female boss?"

“I know her, the old lady from the forest area,” the local businessman recognized her.

"Lin Xiaohe, the district head of Tienan District?"

"Correct."

hiss.

A collective gasp filled the air as everyone regained their composure.

They finally realized why the forest area dared to ask for 600.

The previous rumor was that it would cost 200 yuan per square meter, but that was the price agreed upon in the internal land transfer agreement.

In the 90s, land was transferred through negotiated agreements, with the government negotiating directly with specific companies without going through open market bidding, resulting in extremely low prices.

Taking Shenzhen as an example, the land transfer price by agreement fluctuates between 200 and 600 yuan.

Someone asked a businessman in Shenzhen, "How much did your plot of land in Jingtian, Futian, fetch at auction this year?"

A Shenzhen businessman looked regretful: "7621 yuan per square meter!"

Damn it!
The land transfer price was less than 600 yuan per square meter, while the market competition price was more than ten times the transfer price!
The land transfer price in the southern part of the provincial capital is 200. According to this formula, the market competition price is over 2000.

No wonder Wang Shuxiang was beaming with joy; she really hit the jackpot!

In an instant, everyone was eager to get started. The deep-rooted attachment to the land was ingrained in the hearts of every Dongguo person.

As a successful Dongguo businessman and as a successful Dongguo company, without its own headquarters, it lacks prestige.

They can't be predetermined, but they can be bought with money.

Unaware of the undercurrents below, the auctioneer continued the auction for the third plot of land: "Provincial Capital Mold Factory, area 8900 square meters, starting price 600."

A man from Wenzhou wearing a leather jacket in the front row held up a sign that read: "Six hundred!"

"Six hundred and fifty!" Shenzhen developers quickly followed suit, raising their prices.

"Seven hundred!"

"Seven hundred and fifty!"

The price jumped to 900 yuan per square meter in just ten minutes. In the end, the land was sold for 1240 yuan per square meter.

The scene that followed was even more spectacular.

The site of the former provincial capital foundry started at 670 yuan and soared to 1400 yuan; the prime location of the former provincial capital transformer factory near Jianshe Road was sold for a record-breaking 2000 yuan, setting a new record for land sales in the Tienan District.

Sitting in the back row, the director of the district finance bureau wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered to his secretary, "I was worried that we wouldn't be able to sell them, but now it seems that I was short-sighted."

The auction lasted a full day.

All seventeen plots of land were sold, with the total transaction amount exceeding 8 million yuan.

Before the echo of the auctioneer's gavel had even faded, the bulldozers on the construction site were already roaring to life.

The speed of the actions taken by the Tienan District was astonishing.

Along North Second Road, the former sites of thirteen relocated companies broke ground simultaneously.

The construction company recruited thousands of construction workers on the spot, and the workers' sheds stretched along the main road.

The tower crane slowly rises in the morning light, and the roar of concrete mixer trucks continues from dawn until late at night.

On the site of the former cathode ray tube factory, the foundation of a commercial complex is being excavated. The pit is 15 meters deep, and workers are working in three shifts, day and night.

On the adjacent site of the former provincial capital foundry, the main structure of a large home furnishing plaza is rising at a rate of one floor every seven days.

"This speed is even faster than Shenzhen back then," a project manager from a construction company in Guangdong remarked as he stood on the construction site.

The three drivers of economic development are: investment, consumption, and exports.

The three pillars of the Tie Nan District have begun to slowly take shape. Infrastructure investment directly boosts employment and drives upstream and downstream industrial chains, such as steel, cement, and machinery.

These are precisely the strengths of the Tienan District, so the engineering contractors are naturally willing to purchase raw materials locally at a lower cost.

This wave has prompted many factories in the Tienan District that had previously ceased production to resume operations.

The auction proceeds of 8 million yuan have made the Tienan District extremely wealthy, and this is only the first batch of factory demolitions!
