"As of now, there are only a handful of subways in operation across the country, including the MTR, Beijing-Tianjin Railway, Shanghai Railway, Taiwan Railway, and Guangzhou Railway."
"What do you think will be the most valuable in the future empire's economy?" Xia Ye said with a smile.
"Brother Ye, these questions are too profound, and we don't understand them either." Jiang Dong looked confused.
Huang Ling thought for a while: "Brother Ye, during this period, the industrial economy is still the most prosperous."
"It's hard to say about the future," Cui Jun added.
Xia Ye smiled.
He controls the development path of the empire for the next twenty years.
Starting to lay the groundwork for the subway from now on is just like buying the land to build Golden Dragon Real Estate. It is an upfront investment.
Real estate and infrastructure are the two pillars that will haunt the empire in the future.
Now in 2001, subways across the country have not been effectively constructed and developed, and many ideas are still just documents.
Really few people would do it.
This time, because Xia Ye spent all his family wealth to bring cultural relics home and win the favor of the Provincial Academy of Engineering, Xia Ye had this opportunity to connect Yemu Capital with the Provincial Railway Academy.
Are railways valuable?
valuable.
If Xia Ye can start investing from now on, she may share the pie with the empire in the future.
In this industry, Xia Ye is not without qualifications and permissions.
Don’t forget that Secretary Zhang Songwen had previously given Xiaye Empire high-speed rail construction project supervision rights.
Although this matter was only a verbal agreement, Xia Ye could just get started and get the project started.
Today, the high-speed rail construction project has not yet been approved, and it is just an idea.
But Xia Ye knows that the future empire will definitely do it in essence.
By then, the empire will definitely need a senior company to bridge the gap and take full responsibility for the project and continue the work.
Xia Ye couldn't, she would leave everything for later.
If you want to do it, start doing it now.
There are only a few groups building subways across the country, and even if there are, they are all large groups led by the Empire.
The railway department is the initiator of this project, and the high-speed rail, because of its cutting-edge technology, is even led by academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Therefore, Xia Ye had just discussed with Gao Hongchang to establish a large company in the province.
"I can't do it alone, so I thought of you. Soon, I will get the qualifications and permits from the province. With it, everything will be easy to do. I want to get involved in this project." Together with you, the subway and future high-speed railways will be built under the leadership of our company."
When Jiang Dong and others heard this, they kept swallowing their saliva.
The business introduced by Brother Ye is getting bigger and bigger.
They were all afraid that they might not be able to handle it, so when they heard Xia Ye talking here, they felt unsure.
Cui Jun's mouth twitched: "Brother Ye, this project is so big, I'm afraid we won't be able to take it on."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Dong, Huang Ling and others nodded frequently.
Xia Ye glanced at them: "What's wrong with this?"
"Brother Ye, your business is too big now, and it's all tied up with the Railway Institute. Let's not talk about qualifications, technology, experience, etc. We just don't have enough funds."
Xia Ye smiled and said: "We do it, and the Railway Institute will pay for it, so that their department can save their worries. The leader hopes that someone will take part of the responsibility. Don't you understand this?"
In terms of construction costs, it is more cost-effective to outsource it than to do it yourself.
Because at that time, the Railway Academy had great bargaining power and autonomy.
Although the hard work is done by Xia Ye and others, it can also provide the soil for Xia Ye's new enterprise to hone its skills and cultivate experience.
Ten years later, twenty years later.
How will this business grow?
Xia Ye couldn't guarantee it.
"It's up to you whether you can take it or not. The opportunity to make money has come. Whether you can seize it or not is not something I can force. If I can't do it, I will do it alone. It's just a little more troublesome. We are all brothers, making money." I don’t want to take the opportunity alone.”
Hearing this, Jiang Dong gritted his teeth: "Brother Ye has said so, how can we disagree? I did it!"
Huang Ling and Cui Jun also nodded: "Anyway, if you follow Brother Ye, nothing will happen!"
Yang Shihua was a little cautious and said, "Brother Ye, I have to discuss this matter with my family."
Xia Ye smiled and said, "Even if you ask the old secretary, he will agree and even suggest that you do it with me."
"Qualifications are not easy to obtain. In a few years, the empire's subway construction will spring up like mushrooms after a rain!"
Xia Ye alone knew that in four or five years, more than 60 subway lines would appear across the country and many cities would blossom.
In ten or eight years, there will be hundreds of lines, not only subways, but also express trains, maglevs, APMs, and countless others.
With the development of technology, there will be a strong investment in the construction of railways, roads, bridges and other infrastructure, not even limited to the empire.
Many third world countries can accept help from the empire's infrastructure projects.
To make money abroad, I don’t know how many overseas companies have been reborn.
There are many opportunities, but if you don’t take advantage of them now, it will be too late.
"Brother Ye, have you given a name for our new company?" Jiang Dong asked.
Xia Ye smiled and said, "We will wait until the qualifications are met, but I have already thought of the name. Let's call it 'Longteng Jiuzhou'!"
Everyone was sighing.
"Longteng Jiuzhou, what a good name!"
"Brother Ye, this situation is huge, hahaha..."
Afterwards, everyone drank and talked happily.
They had not come to participate in the treasure appraisal conference before because their status and qualifications were not enough.
Everyone present was worth hundreds of millions, and they were all people from the industry.
They, outsiders, naturally don't have to go.
Of course, everyone has always supported Xia Ye in their hearts.
Jiang Dong and the others even admired Xia Ye for spending all his family wealth on cultural relics.
Can there be such a saint in the world?
After learning that Xia Ye had exhausted Ye Mu Capital's funds, they were all very worried.
"Brother Ye, now that we have no money, it will be difficult to open a new company like this..." Jiang Dong said.
Xia Ye said: "You can't say that. Although Yemu Capital's cash flow is gone, there are still many channels for monetization. I still have 1.5 billion in foreign securities investments, and I have founded some private equity companies in my own name. The fund that the foundation can raise in the short term is more than 1.5 billion. In addition, I also bought several tons of gold, which can protect against risks."
Everyone clicked their tongues after hearing this.
"Brother Ye Niubi!"
"Damn it, 2.5 billion is spent, and there is still 1.5 billion left...Brother Ye, you are so rich."
"Nonsense, how can you become the richest man in Dragon City if you don't do this!"
Xia Ye smiled slightly.
He has made a lot of investments, not including assets, and has more than one billion in cash alone.
Including the income of game companies, hot pot stickers, travel companies, clothing companies, martial arts schools, pharmaceutical factories, antique shops, herbal tea factories, Internet cafes, real estate, etc., if you add up the bits and pieces, it is not difficult to recreate Yemu Capital. ?
