In fact, it's normal for Li Feng to be suspected by people around him. Today's China is not the world's second-largest economy. To put it bluntly, worshiping foreign countries has actually become the common psychology of many ordinary people since the reform and opening up.
I always think that foreign countries are always the best. I try my best to go abroad. Even most government personnel, the country's elite group, think so in their hearts.
It is precisely because of such a common psychology that when Li Feng said that magic capital could become a new financial center in Asia and even a world-famous financial center in the future, the people around him were stunned. Although they would not refute face-to-face, they were skeptical.
Another point is that the sudden Asian financial crisis has cast a shadow on the development of Pudong. Too many projects invested here have been shelved. It is not just a global financial center, but the global financial center has gone to the "world's first Motian building" from the beginning, which is a typical example.
Let's say that in Pudong today, Zhengda Plaza, a large shopping center under construction in Lujiazui, has been shut down due to the rupture of funds from Thai Investors; For example, due to the impact of the Southeast Asian financial crisis, Japan's 800 partner company is facing bankruptcy, while the retail commercial buildings built in the prosperous area of Pudong are facing huge losses. There are too many similar shutdown projects, large and small, in Lujiazui.
......
At this time, foreign investors withdrew and collected funds one after another. To tell the truth, the initial development of Pudong was inseparable from the presence of the rich Chinese and ethnic Chinese in Southeast Asia. However, the sudden financial crisis brought the wealth of the rich in Southeast Asia to the bottom of the valley.
Today, the roads in Pudong are empty. Pudong's real estate has suffered an unprecedented crisis, and the occupancy rate of commercial buildings is less than 30%. Many media in European and American countries even shout "Pudong development failure". At this time, Pudong and even the demon government are facing unprecedented pressure.
Therefore, when Li Feng showed his interest in the development of Pudong, the magic capital government was very happy for a while. When Li Feng arrived, the reception specification also mentioned the important reason of the highest level.
Naturally, Li Feng is not clear about these things. However, as long as someone is sent to investigate these general situations, he can also have a general understanding.
……
"Mr. Li, our government really wants to see this scene, but in fact, in addition to the plot of the financial center, although some of the surrounding plots have not been sold, at least half of them have been sold. It may be very troublesome to build such a complex."
As the leader of the new area, I naturally put the development of Pudong and Lujiazui in my heart. When I heard Li Feng's proposal, I was excited and couldn't help turning other thoughts.
"Can you talk about the future planning of the surrounding plots?" Li Feng asked with a smile.
"300 mu here, which is the plot bought by Hutchison Whampoa in Hong Kong. 300 mu here is Henderson Zhaoye, Sun Hung Kai and new world development company..."
Speechless, listen to the mayor's words, Li Fengyue is speechless and unable to make complaints about it. Shit, it's like those top rich people in Hong Kong buying land in groups.
Next, in addition to the investigation at the global financial center, under the leadership of the head of Pudong New Area, the whole Lujiazui area began to wander around. People not only hoped that Li Feng would take over the offer of the global financial center, many projects were temporarily suspended, and asked if Li Feng could take over.
......
"Mr. Li, you see, this is the Zhengda Plaza project that was prepared to be built before. It was invested by Chinese investors in Thailand and Zhengda Group. Unfortunately, the financial crisis in Thailand made Zhengda Group difficult to fund, and the work here was stopped."
"Oh, the Zhengda Group of the lotus supermarket in Yichu?" Li Feng replied with a smile.
"Yes..."
Li Feng has naturally heard of Zhengda Group. It is an extremely powerful enterprise and has played a very important role in China's reform and opening up. Since Li Feng began to contact TV, products related to the brand "Zhengda" have appeared on TV one after another.
What are a series of well-known domestic brands such as Zhengda pharmaceutical, Zhengda qingqingbao, Zhengda variety show, Zhengda feed, Zhengda Kangdi, Zhengda Plaza, and naturally, there is Yichu Lotus supermarket, which was later acquired.
Seeing the Zhengda Plaza with retail as the center, Li Feng was moved. He turned around Lujiazui and found that there was no shopping center in Pudong Dahua supermarket. Seeing the Zhengda Plaza that was shutting down, he couldn't help thinking whether Dahua would take over directly.
......
"Well, Mayor Zhao, I will contact President Chen Heyuan of Dahua Group to see if there is any plan to invest in Lujiazui." Li Feng then replied with a smile.
Although I want to receive it directly, after all, in a shopping center like Lujiazui, the future profit and the appreciation of its commercial shopping center property are a little big.
Since people just stopped work because of financial problems, I have no reason not to accept it. This is really killing multiple birds with one stone. I have no reason to let go of the opportunity to come to the door.
"Mayor Zhao, you see, I thought about the one century central project, but you want me to take over so many projects, but you need the strong cooperation of your government."
"You mean, you are willing to accept these projects, Mr. Li. You know, the funds for the start-up of these projects are not small?"
"In the early stage, I will invest US $1 billion for the resumption of the global financial center and the initial capital of the Century Center project. After that, at least US $5 billion will enter one after another within three years.
Of course, I also know that if I receive a large number of projects from Lujiazui, maybe the funds will not be enough. In addition to myself, I also hope to get the support of the magic capital government.
For example, help contact the four major banks in China. I hope to get a bank loan. Personally, I am optimistic about the development of Lujiazui and magic capital. I am also willing to contribute to the development of Lujiazui and even Pudong. "
Li Feng also knows that the planning of the one century center will be an astronomical amount of construction funds at that time, not to mention that the open Lujiazui is full of huge business opportunities in Li Feng's view.
Now, in the period of financial crisis, it is the best time for Li Feng to insert. If he misses it, it is really the biggest sin. In Li Feng's view, this is really the best and last chance to copy the bottom and short Lujiazui. There will be no shop after this village.
Anyway, Li Feng knows that since 2000, Lujiazui has become famous all over the country and in the national and even global financial circles. A large number of foreign financial groups have begun to settle in it, making it a real Chinese financial district and reproducing the reputation of the "Far East Wall Street". At that time, the occupancy rate of Lujiazui commercial buildings was 100%. As for the future, It has always been the financial center of rising China and even Asia.
……
Listening to Li Feng's positive reply and the huge investment funds said in his mouth, the head of Pudong New Area and Vice Mayor Zhao were very excited. Similarly, he also breathed a sigh in his heart.
"Mr. Li, thank you for your trust in Mordor, Pudong and Lujiazui. We also welcome your investment in Mordor. I hope we can cooperate happily again."
"Mayor Zhao, I understand. I hope the government can cooperate with us. We need the strong support of the government, especially these investors. We need the help of government departments. Only in this way can we make all the projects smoothly implemented as soon as possible, can't we?"
"Of course, Mr. Li, please rest assured that the government will fully cooperate. To be honest, since 1996, the economy of Southeast Asia has started to go wrong, which has led to problems in the economy of the whole Asia.
Especially since this year, many investors have begun to collect funds, and many investors have withdrawn from mordu and even Lujiazui. Recently, I can't sleep all night. Now I can finally sleep well tonight when I hear Mr. Li's words. " The leader of Pudong and vice mayor of the Standing Committee of the Magic City Committee shook Li Feng's hand and said excitedly.
"Really, I didn't expect that I still had the effect of treating insomnia. If I had known so, maybe I should have come early."
"It's not too late... It's not too late... Just right!"
"Ha ha..."
