At the end of 1996, the Yuquanying three-level water pumping station was finally completed.
When the gurgling Yellow River water flowed down the channel into our orchard, the people in the whole village cheered.
After three years of looking forward to and waiting for three years, the water from the Yellow River finally came, which made them really happy.
After the three-level water pumping station is completed, villagers will have their own water pumping station and no longer need to rely on the water pumping station in Chengguan Village.
It not only saves costs, but also is more convenient, so everyone is celebrating.
The completion of the Yangshui Station also made Xiang Nan very happy.
In the play, it took a lot of effort to build this water pumping station. Until the death of Director Zhang Shucheng, it was not completed. It was delayed and delayed for seven or eight years before it was completed. It was comparable to Tang Monk's pilgrimage for Buddhist scriptures.
Now that it is completed ahead of schedule, it will not only benefit the people, but also eliminate those nonsense things, which makes Xiang Nan naturally satisfied.
…
At the end of 1996, Xiang Nan once again entered the stock market to make money.
In the past two years, he has spent a lot of money investing in and building factories. The winery alone cost 60 million yuan. This also left him with little money on hand, with only about 30 million left.
In the future, he also wants to expand the winery, fruit vinegar factory, cannery, and introduce more wealth-making projects, such as animal husbandry, herbal cultivation, feed processing, etc., all of which require a lot of capital.
Therefore, in order to make money, he had no choice but to come back to work.
By 1996, Yinchuan already had its own securities sales department, so Xiang Nan no longer had to go to Chang'an to speculate in stocks. Moreover, because his account opening capital was as high as 30 million, he was invited to the big account room from the beginning.
The so-called big room is actually not mysterious. It is just a slightly well-decorated room with a dozen or twenty computers. Because the configured network speed is relatively fast, it can trade a few seconds faster than retail investors outside.
In addition, people who enter the big houses are richer and have more connections, and can get some true or false gossip. Occasionally, they can be fooled a few times, so over time, it becomes a bit mysterious.
But there's really nothing mysterious about it. Those who are really well-connected, those who engage in black-box operations and insider trading, will never come to the big offices. People want to keep a low profile as possible, so how can they spread their news everywhere?
Just like Xiang Nan, he knows which stocks will rise, and he can even specify which day. But he would never tell anyone the news.
Every time he came to the main room, he only stayed for a few minutes and left immediately after completing the transaction without any hesitation.
And every time he comes, he is either wearing sunglasses or a mask, so outsiders can't see his appearance at all.
In addition, he doesn't come every day. He only comes to trade when he knows that a certain stock is going to rise sharply. Within a month, he came less than three times, so almost no one knew him.
…
At the end of 1996, Xiang Nan took the time to write the fourth volume of "So Many Beautiful Lands". This volume mainly dealt with the immigration of the Gu people in Xihai to Diaozhuang in recent years.
The story is based on the drama version of "Mountains and Seas", that is, without his intervention, what would the real Diaozhuang immigrants' story be like.
After immigrants come here, they will encounter sandstorms and lack of water and electricity. They need to use backward agricultural tools such as hoes and shovels to improve the sand-filled Gobi Desert.
Without a stable position, he can only do odd jobs. If the future is unclear, he may even have to take risks such as boarding trains and stealing goods. For a few cents of water, quarrels with neighboring villages, quarrels with water pumping stations...
In this volume of stories, Xiang Nan did not forget to write the real stories of An Yongfu and Li Shuihua, but the names were slightly changed. But the villagers who knew the past of the two knew it was the two of them as soon as they saw it.
In fact, this fourth volume has not been completed, it only writes about southern Fujian coming to support Ningxia and building Minning Village. The young man Ma Liu went to Xinjuan to look for his cousin, and the young girl Tian He went to southern Fujian to work...
The subsequent plot has not happened yet, and he wants to make up for it when he has time in the future. Or just leave it blank and let readers enjoy the future of Xihaigu...
This piece was also sent to People's Literature Magazine and was published quickly.
…
After this piece was published, it once again aroused considerable repercussions.
Firstly, this volume is said to be semi-autobiographical, and the characters and stories written are all based on prototypes, which naturally attracts attention; secondly, "So Many Beauties" has been published in three volumes, and the sales of genuine and pirated copies combined, I'm afraid There are more than 10 million copies. In other words, there are certain fans.
Thirdly, Diaozhuang immigration and Minning cooperation are major poverty alleviation strategies promoted by the state. Xiang Nan wrote exactly this matter, and he wrote it in such an inspiring way, so it was naturally praised by the official media.
After its launch, many media such as "People's Daily", "Guangming Daily", "Reference News", "China Youth Daily" and so on spoke highly of it.
They also combined with reality to give focused reports on the changes in Yuquanying and Jintan Village over the years. This move also made the originally unknown Yuquanying and Jintan Villages become the focus of national attention overnight.
Seeing this, Chen Jinshan immediately struck while the iron was hot and held an investment promotion meeting in Minning Village to invite businessmen from southern Fujian to invest.
People in southern Fujian have always been a group-husband, and they are also good at doing business.
Nowadays, many official media are reporting on Yuquanying Economic Development Zone, which sends a very clear signal to them. That is, the country attaches great importance to this place, and if the country already pays attention to it, they will naturally pay more attention to it.
Because the country has the power to move mountains and reclaim seas. At that time, Zhenzhen was just a run-down fishing village. As soon as the country announced its plans for development, within a few years it became one of the most economically developed cities in the country.
As for Yuquanying, a small place like this, the state can develop it if it wants to. If they don't invest now, they won't have a chance in two years.
Therefore, as soon as the conference opened, thousands of investors came, shocking the entire province.
When these Fujian businessmen came to Yuquanying, they found that it was really good.
Firstly, there is a lot of idle labor here, and labor costs are very low; secondly, the infrastructure here is good, including electricity, water, and roads.
Thirdly, there are already factories such as Liren Clothing, Quanjun Liquor, Dejian Fruit Vinegar, and Yongfu Canned Food here. They can completely build supporting factories.
For example, carton factory, printing factory, glass factory, button factory, zipper factory, etc. It is easy to enjoy the shade under the big trees. With these four large enterprises, there will be no shortage of business.
In addition, electronics factories, leather shoe factories, wool textile factories, furniture factories, meat processing factories, etc. can also be located here. Seek development by taking advantage of local cheap labor and the advantages of animal husbandry and forestry.
Therefore, the investment promotion conference went very smoothly. 182 investment letters of intent were signed at the conference alone. The total investment amount reached 63 million yuan and it is expected to provide 25,000 jobs.
This is enough to benefit people within a hundred miles radius, and will also allow local people to live a better life.
