"Mr. Governor, the Hong Kong government has launched the construction plan of the new town in Tin Shui Wai, I wonder how long it will take to build it in the real plan of the Hong Kong government?"

Xia Yu threw a difficult question to MacLehose.

MacLehose subconsciously wanted to do Tai Chi, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Xia Yu's question should have deep meaning, which was related to the construction of the Science and Technology Industrial Park.

So he pondered for a moment, but still said his true thoughts: "Mr. Xia, that is, the Hong Kong government's fiscal revenue has been better in recent years, but it is also on the verge of deficit, and the focus of the Hong Kong government's construction is on Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula. ”

"It can be said that the construction of a new town from scratch that radiates hundreds of thousands of people, transportation, water and electricity pipe networks, residential areas, commercial areas, education, public services, etc., requires too much investment, and the Hong Kong government does not have the financial resources to build it for the time being. ”

"We expect real estate developers to invest in the construction first, but it has been a year and a half since Cheung Kong Asset Group entered the market and there has been no movement, so it will take at least ten years for Tin Shui Wai New Town to create a humble prototype. ”

Xia Yu bowed slightly, combined with the situation in Tin Shui Wai that he knew in later generations, what MacLehose said was almost the truth.

It can even be said that MacLehose is relatively optimistic, because, Ai Lihe would never have imagined that if no one else intervened and followed the historical trajectory, Tin Shui Wai Town would become such a strange, weird and even tragic place.

According to the historical trajectory of the previous life, the Hong Kong government only started to build public housing in Tin Shui Wai in 1987, and it was not until 2003 that buses, light rail and other means of transportation were gradually introduced, and it was not until 2017 that a hospital was set up in the district, but there was no emergency treatment, and the sick could only see a private clinic.

Before 2017, the nearest public hospital in Tin Shui Wai, about nine kilometres away, and more than 300,000 people in Tin Shui Wai had to make an appointment for three months to six months if they were sick.

It can be said that Tin Shui Wai is almost a pure residential area, in addition to the supporting urban facilities are seriously insufficient, there are only a few catering and service industries here to absorb employment, and residents here want to make a living, they have to choose to pay high transportation costs and work across districts.

Many people in Tin Shui Wai get up at half past four, in order to catch the first subway at half past five, and want to live a happy life by supporting themselves, but find that no matter how hard they work, they can only earn a meager salary.

"The harder you work, the longer you work, the poorer you become", this is the current situation of the residents of Tin Shui Wai in the previous life, and their quality of life is even worse than relying on handouts.

Because of poverty and lack of hope, various problems in Tin Shui Wai have been highlighted, with spouse abuse being the first in Hong Kong, and "child party" violence and murder cases occurring one after another, and even various horrific incidents have occurred.

In fact, all these things can be changed, if the Hong Kong government has money, if Cheung Kong can assume social responsibility while making money, instead of buying the land at a low price, opening up the relationship to change the nature of the land, waiting for the appreciation of the low price and then cashing out and patting the ass and leaving, Tin Shui Wai will not become a stain on Hong Kong.

Since Lao Li and others defeated the new town of Tianshuiwei, directly or indirectly harmed hundreds of thousands of people, and wasted such a treasure, Xia Yu was not polite, and he made Tianshuiwei into a favorable appearance for himself.

I saw Xia Yu smile and said: "Mr. Governor, I also understand the pressure and financial predicament of the Hong Kong government, but I have a proposal to accelerate the construction of the new town in Tin Shui Wai without the need for the Hong Kong government to face financial pressure, and at the same time promote the reform of people's livelihood in the Hong Kong government." ”

MacLehose raised his eyebrows, and was aroused by Xia Yu's curiosity.

He asked curiously, "I don't know what the proposal is?"

Xia Yu said: "This plan is relatively big, why don't we find a place to sit down and talk." ”

"Okay!"

Then, Xia Yu and MacLehose found two large stones in the shade of the tree.

After sitting down, Xia Yu told MacLehose: "The Hong Kong government's finances are temporarily unable to develop the new town of Tin Shui Wai, and real estate developers such as Cheung Kong Asset Group are not doing anything, and I happen to have funds, so it is better for me to assist the Hong Kong government to build the new town of Tin Shui Wai." ”

"First of all, Mr. Governor, you proposed the 'Home Ownership Scheme', the first phase of which is funded by Jiuding Real Estate Group to build 40,000 or 50,000 public housing units in Tin Shui Wai New Town, and I am confident that this project will be completed and handed over within three years. “

"At the same time, I will build supporting schools, hospitals and other public supporting facilities together, and the Hong Kong government only needs to support all personnel such as teachers, staff, medical staff, and administrative personnel after these public facilities are built. ”

"It's equivalent to Jiuding Real Estate Group building a new town in Tin Shui Wai from scratch?" asked MacLehose directly.

He wanted to know if Xia Yu was joking, after all, building a city that could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people was not a joke, even the Hong Kong government couldn't build it in three years.

Xia Yu smiled and said, "Yes!"

MacLehose frowned and said, "Mr. Xia, the money invested here is not ordinarily large, and the Hong Kong government does not have so much money. ”

Xia Yuhun said nonchalantly: "Mr. Governor, all these funds are directly advanced by me, although this does require a huge amount of funds, but if I don't have the strength, I won't do it, and as an entrepreneur, I should indeed take the initiative to assume social responsibility." ”

MacLehose showed admiration, gave Xia Yu a thumbs up, didn't say much, made a gesture of please, and continued to listen.

"In addition to building a new town in Tin Shui Wai, building a science and technology industrial park can also be invested and constructed by Jiuding Real Estate Group. ”

Xia Yu smiled slightly and continued: "In terms of these inputs, although the Hong Kong government does not need to contribute money, it needs to replace it with resources. ”

"These resources include the land in the new town of Tin Shui Wai, which I will use to create an urban business district and bring in shops that hundreds of thousands of residents need to live. ”

"It also includes land for the creation of a good science and technology industrial park. ”

"If these are not enough to deduct the funds I have invested, then on the basis of calculating the interest, the Hong Kong government can use the taxes paid by my business later. ”

In this way, the construction of the new town of Tin Shui Wai has been completed, and the residents of Ping Shan Township and Xiacun Township can use their land and old houses to buy or replace the built public housing at a discount, which solves their living conditions and improves their living, education, medical and other environments. ”

"The construction of Tin Shui Wai New Town and the construction of a science and technology industrial park requires a large number of migrant workers, who can directly hire local people and solve their employment problems. ”

"And the construction of cities and science and technology industrial parks is also for them, and the local migrant workers will be more active and motivated, and the social security problem will be greatly improved." ”

"When the science and technology industrial park is built, local residents can also enter the science and technology industrial park for employment. ”

"What do you think, Mr. Governor?"

MacLehose, who was a little stunned, came back to his senses and applauded vigorously, praising Xia Yu's plan.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Mr. Xia, your plan is too big, and it's interlocking. ”

"But I have to say that the enforceability is very high, and as long as it is publicized, it will definitely usher in a positive response from hundreds of thousands of nearby villagers. ”

"The possible difficulties of land acquisition will also be nipped in the bud. ”

After admiring it, MacLehose calmed down a little and said to Xia Yu seriously: "But Mr. Xia, you have to think clearly, the amount of money that needs to be invested here is not ordinarily large. ”

Xia Yu smiled lightly, and said lightly: "Mr. Governor, thank you for your concern, but I am sure of this matter." ”

Xia Yu said this again, and MacLehose didn't say more, after all, if this matter is done, it will definitely be a good thing for the benefit of Hong Kong and the people, and he has no reason to refuse.

As for the land resources and tax exemptions that the Hong Kong government will provide, they are still in the future.

Now use a part of the land resources to replace Xia Yu's investment, which can be exchanged for Tin Shui Wai New Town and Science and Technology Industrial Park.

After these two are built, the originally cheap land price will also rise, and the science and technology industrial park will be soft on other enterprises to collect rent.

And the tax is not to mention, now there is not a single hair, if the science and technology industrial park is really built in the future, it is a big deal that the first few years will not create direct taxes for the Hong Kong government, and after paying off the principal and interest, it will be the money for nothing.

Moreover, we have to take into account that the hundreds of thousands of residents in this vicinity have incomes, and the development of all walks of life driven by consumption?

It can be said that as long as the Hong Kong government does administrative work, it will be able to lie down and enjoy the results, and it will be a big winner.

Xia Yu also achieved his goal and was also a big winner.

The lives of hundreds of thousands of residents in the vicinity of Tin Shui Wai have also been changed, and they are a big winner.

A win-win situation for all parties, if you want to say that you are at a loss, it is estimated that it is just a real estate developer like Cheung Kong Industrial Group who holds land but wants to develop civilian housing to make money.

After all, Xia Yu built 40,000 or 50,000 sets of public housing, which can solve the housing problem of 450,000 residents, and if you add an average of five people per household, then you can solve the housing problem of more than 200,000 people.

The cheap public housing is sufficient, and the residential real estate in Tin Shui Wai New Town will definitely not develop, and the housing prices will not rise if they want to.

However, the civil real estate market has been destroyed, but the commercial real estate has not, because hundreds of thousands of people are concentrated here, the store must be valuable, and the commercial real estate is mainly affected by the fluctuations of the market and the large economic environment, which has no impact on the price of civil real estate, and will not affect Xia Yu's strategy of curbing housing prices.

However, according to the conditions that Xia Yu just said, the commercial area is also built by him, so the only profitable commercial real estate in the real estate market here will also be swallowed by him!

However, even if Lao Li and others are jealous, envious and hateful, it is useless, who made this game of chess, the entire Xiangjiang has the strength and qualifications to play, and only Xia Yu is alone?

PS: If you are interested, you can check the information of Tin Shui Wai, which is simply a stain on Hong Kong, which shows the hatred of those real estate developers and their attitude towards social responsibility.
