The temperature is about 27 or 28 degrees.
No wind.
Feeling a bit stuffy.
In an alley near Xianda Plaza, Zhang Jing was drinking a cup of freshly squeezed ice pear juice worth twenty-five xiangjiang yuan.
When he was about to leave, he was blocked by a middle-aged man in a suit and tie.
"Mr. Zhang Jing," the visitor introduced himself, "my name is Yuan Qingzheng, and I work for the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. Can I chat with you for a while?"
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority is the mother of Hong Kong.
Grand Coconut Bank came from Solomon to open a branch, and the only thing that needed approval was the Hong Kong Monetary Authority.
Looking at the formal-looking Yuan Qingzheng, Zhang Jingjing nodded in agreement.
Ten minutes later, the two sat down opposite each other in the corner of a cafe.
After the waiter left, Yuan Qingzheng sat down and went straight to the topic, "You may be able to feel that Xiangjiang's status as a surface financial center is shifting."
Zhang Jing nodded, he really felt it, otherwise Jack Liu would not put the new headquarters in Temasek.
The exception is Leopard Beer, which is a local company and predates Temasek.
But what can Zhang Jingneng do?
What he took was a Hong Kong passport and a Hong Kong ID card. Naturally, he hoped that Hong Kong would be well, but his arms were too thin and there was nothing he could do.
"We are planning to make a change," Yuan Qingzheng said, "taking out a piece of land to build a Wall Street in Xiangjiang."
"Isn't it Central?" Zhang Jing tilted his head slightly and asked, "Huifeng, South Asia Bank, Hutchison, Jardine, Poshun, Qichang, these are all banks and financial companies."
“It’s different,” Yuan Qingzheng said. “Even the largest companies, Huifeng and Jardine, are mainly engaged in deposit and loan business and do not have the ability to make money from the capital market.”
"Is it wrong?" Zhang Jing reminded, "I saw the Mirante Bank acquired by Huifeng in London."
"Huifeng not only acquired Mirante, but also acquired Citigroup's SITC, but none of these financial companies made any money after it was acquired by it."
After listening to the sound, Zhang Jing smelled something different and asked to the point, "Is Huifeng transferring assets?"
"Not really," Yuan Qingzheng introduced. "It used the money it made in Xiangjiang to invest in Europe and America. It originally wanted to stand on three pillars, but the results were not satisfactory."
Putting himself in his shoes, Zhang Jing understood Huifeng's decision.
The three pillars stand together, and the three markets make money together and enhance risk resistance, but the reality is more cruel.
"I can't help you," Zhang Jingwan refused, "Xiangjiang is losing its surface financial status."
"Mr. Zhang," Yuan Qingzheng asked with a serious expression, "do you believe in Feng Shui?"
"If you don't believe me," Zhang Jing said with a smile, "you should be more realistic."
"Feng shui is a practical matter," Yuan Qingzheng tried his best to explain. "Xiangjiang is a place blessed by gods and Buddhas in the sky. It will never treat those who pay for it badly."
"Those who live in cages must have a different opinion."
"After this change is implemented, they will all get a low-rent house, which will increase their happiness and release more spending power."
The so-called low-rent housing means that the property rights and land belong to the government and are rented to the public at a price that is about three to four times lower than the market price.
Zhang Jing became interested, "What are you going to do?"
"My current boss, he plans to use his future career to get the top ten families to use part of the land they bought from the Yin Guo Yamen before returning to China to build about 500,000 low-rent houses."
Yuan Qingzheng's boss is naturally the big boss of Xiangjiang. If he wants to force himself, he seems to be able to do it.
"It takes money to build a house," Zhang Jing looked at Yuan Qingzheng and asked, "Do you have money?"
“The Xiangjiang Yamen has foreign exchange reserves of 4.5 trillion Hong Kong dollars and reserves of 1 trillion Hong Kong dollars;
The annual earning capacity is about 700 billion, public expenditure is about 600 billion, and there is a surplus of about 100 billion. "
"Of course," Yuan Qingzheng changed the topic, "Foreign exchange reserves cannot be touched, and social financing is required to realize this plan."
Zhang Jing was surprised, he didn’t expect Xiangjiang Yamen to be so good at making money, awesome!
"What do you want me to do?" Zhang Jing asked Yuan Qingzheng, "What benefits can I get?"
"Three things, 1: The name of Leopard Beer is very misleading. In fact, it is an investment bank. We hope you will go to the place designated by us to build the new headquarters of Leopard Beer. The construction area is required to be no less than 60,000 square meters;
2: Invest in a new brewing factory with an annual output of no less than 500 million liters;
3: Allocate 2 billion yuan to participate in the construction of new low-rent housing, and collect due rent on a quarterly basis after completion. "
Zhang Jing's brows were twitching, and Yuan Qingzheng was really embarrassed to say that the so-called rent could not be repaid in thirty years, which was very uneconomical.
Therefore, the 2 billion yuan taken out is most likely to be land money, the so-called planned "Wall Street" land.
No wonder they have money. It is estimated that selling land also contributes to the bulk of local income. Are you planning to ruin yourself by building 500,000 low-rent housing units?
Yuan Qingzheng spoke quickly, "The convenience we provide is that the Grand Coconut Bank will pay salaries to teachers and medical staff in Hong Kong, participate in city management, become a financial advisor to the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, have a powerful deputy police officer, and a chief judge."
The feeling of being a girl who was so excited for a moment. I didn't expect that Yuan Qingzheng was working so hard. The four important positions all provided real benefits, and none of them were vain.
Of course, everything you ask for is genuine.
In addition, if you accept these, you may provoke attacks from some local indigenous people.
The problem is, even if there are many risks, Zhang Jing cannot say the word "refuse". Temasek Yamen does not have these benefits.
Since he couldn't refuse, Zhang Jing decided to ask for more benefits.
Considering that Ding Jiaqi plans to research domestic robots and build a new museum, Zhang Jing requested, "I need three construction lands, each with an area of no less than 2,000 square meters."
"Except for the Leopard Beer Headquarters," Yuan Qing was asking, "What are the other two buildings used for?"
"Museum, robotics research, dormitory."
Yuan Qingzheng did not expect that Zhang Jing actually planned to research robots. Of course he and the people he represented welcomed such a good thing, and introduced: "The ground area of each building is not less than 4,000 square meters, because it is only 10 kilometers away from the airport, and the height requirement is less than 50 rice."
"Okay," Zhang Jing continued his request, "I need a private dock that can dock about eight 200-meter-long ships."
Yuan Qingzheng was thinking, "The dock is a bit difficult. I will go back and discuss it with my superiors and give you an answer later."
Zhang Jing stretched out his hand and held it with Yuan Qingzheng.
Because there are many things that need to be done to right the ship of Xiangjiang and regain its title as an international financial city.
Just half a day later, Yuan Qing found Zhang Jing again at the Majestic Hotel in Central.
"The museum will allocate a separate piece of land for you, with a ground area of 4,000 square meters, a ground floor height of no more than fifty meters, and underground use of no more than forty meters. The specific location is the north shore of Silver Mine Bay;
The Leopard Beer headquarters is also nearby, with three 4,000-square-meter plots of land next to each other. A more detailed plan will be sent to you in a week. "
Zhang Jing's brows twitched and he lamented that his opponent was so good at doing business.
Because he often goes to Xiangjiang, he knows that the north bank of Silver Mine Bay is not even accessible by road.
Although the straight line to the airport is only about 10 kilometers, you can only get to the airport by taking a boat in a circle of about 25 kilometers, or maybe taking a boat about 1,000 meters to the south shore of Silver Mine Bay.
In short, very biased.
With a small goal of 20 meters to buy 12,000 square meters of remote land, I feel like I am losing money everywhere.
The discount price of 20,000 acres of 12 Mile Ranch is only 2 meters.
That means 'four butts' are worth money.
"No," Zhang Jing reacted and asked, "If the museum is divided separately, shouldn't it be four 4,000 square meters of land?"
"The commercial area and the residential area are separated by about 1.5 kilometers. We will provide low-rent housing without you having to build dormitories."
"It may be different from what you think," Zhang Jing explained. "Independent houses are for safety. An important technician cannot be stabbed to death by a homeless man."
"I didn't consider it," Yuan Qingzheng promised, "this matter will be resolved properly."
"Where is the dock?" Zhang Jing asked, "This is very important to me." 33
It’s really important. The cost of berthing salvage ships and survey ships is exorbitantly expensive, tens of thousands of meters per day.
"To the east of Silver Mine Bay, across the north shore of Xilingzhou Island, which is two kilometers away, the depth may not be enough. You need to dig it yourself."
Surprises come one after another.
Forget about the north shore of Silver Mine Bay. Fortunately, it is the "Wall Street" planned by Xiangjiang, and the transportation shortcomings will be made up for.
Unexpectedly, the pier was arranged to be a famous place in Hong Kong dramas.
That's right, it's the prison complex.
Xilingzhou Island looks like a B2 bomber, about 1.7 kilometers wide from east to west and about 2 kilometers long from north to south.
In such a small place, there are two heavy-duty prisons, a drug rehabilitation center, a juvenile delinquent repentance center, and a mental treatment center.
very high!
Some people died, but not completely...
