China Resources Group was very cautious about Evergrande's intention to keep the land in Tin Shui Wai, and spent half a month, held several internal meetings, and also communicated with the senior management of Evergrande Company several times, and finally the two parties agreed on an acquisition agreement, and Evergrande Group invested 660 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire 51% of the shares of Weicheng Company owned by China Resources Group.

Since then, Weicheng Company has become a 100% owned subsidiary of Evergrande Group, and the 4.88 square kilometers of land in Tianshui Wai has also become the land bank of Evergrande Group.

"Chairman, we have fully controlled the land in Tin Shui Wai, but how to develop it is still a problem, I don't know what you plan to do with this piece of land?" Wang Liming returned to the company after signing the contract with the representative of China Resources Company, and went directly to Xu Zhi's office to ask this question.

Xu Zhi smiled and said: "There is no way to develop it for the time being, the biggest problem in Tianshuiwei at present is not capital or transportation, but the 97 return period, which we can't do at present, let's wait!"

"Does the chairman mean that he wants to wait until the British government and the mainland government have negotiated how to deal with Xiangjiang before we can develop this land?" asked Wang Liming, during this time, the media in Xiangjiang was extremely concerned about this matter, many "experts" were analyzing various possibilities in different newspapers, and countless people were also fooled and could not find a clue.

However, there was no official voice on both sides, which also affected the business development of the whole of Xiangjiang, and some companies were more cautious, stopped a large number of investment plans, and even began to transfer funds overseas. Others, such as Hongkong Land, believe in their masters and are still desperately expanding, buying land everywhere and announcing large investment plans.

Xu Zhi nodded and smiled: "Yes, the mainland government has now implemented reform and opening up, and is ready to actively integrate into the economic system of the whole world, and the current relationship with Western European and American countries is in the honeymoon period, although the problem of Xiangjiang is troublesome, but it will definitely be solved through peaceful negotiations, the British government cannot have the opportunity to continue to manage Xiangjiang, and after the mainland recovers Xiangjiang, it will inevitably try to stabilize the economic prosperity of Xiangjiang, so I am not worried about the future of this land." ”

"Then we don't care about this land for the time being?" Wang Liming asked.

Xu Zhi shook his head and said: "No, even if the problem of 97's return is solved in the future, the place in Tin Shui Wai is still too remote, and the economy does not have its own hematopoietic ability, and if you don't deal with this problem, you won't be able to get the best benefits." ”

"Traffic is a problem, if we only build a road inside Tin Shui Wai, we can still accept it, from Tin Shui Wai to the Kowloon Peninsula, there is no direct road at present, this is the Hong Kong government's infrastructure project, there is no reason for us to bear it!" Wang Liming said with a frown.

"That's where you need to communicate with the Hong Kong government in the future. Xu Zhi smiled and said that the distance between Tin Shui Wai and the Kowloon Peninsula is about 30 kilometers, but the key problem is that it is surrounded by mountains, and the cost of building roads is too high.

"Understood, I will communicate with the Hong Kong Transport Bureau. Wang Liming nodded in agreement.

Xu Zhi said: "As for the self-economic hematopoietic ability of Tianshui Wai, I have already planned, if you come over again in the afternoon, Lao He and they will also come, and we will discuss it together." ”

"Okay. Wang Liming nodded in agreement.

……

In the afternoon, Wang Liming, He Guoyuan, Ma Shimin, Yao Mingcheng and others all came to the conference room on the 26th floor of the Heshi Building.

As soon as Xu Zhigang came in, everyone stood up.

"Sit down. Xu Zhi waved his hand and said, "Wang Liming, you can introduce the matter of Tianshui Wai." ”

"Okay. Wang Liming agreed, took out a document, and handed it to the secretary in the conference room.

The secretary sent a copy of the document to each person, and Wang Liming also stood up and simply told the matter of Tin Shui Wai.

After Wang Liming's introduction was completed, Xu Zhi said: "Don't worry about the matter of 97, I hope you can be together and discuss a way to revitalize the economy of Tin Shui Wai and realize independent hematopoietic ability." ”

Ma Shimin was the first to ask: "Chairman, is Evergrande going to develop residential buildings in Tin Shui Wai in the future?"

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Yes, but not only residential, other commercial facilities are the same, although the area of Tin Shui Wai is a little smaller, I still hope that the entire Tin Shui Wai can replicate the development process of Yuen Long and Hung Hom in the past few decades, and become a new town in Xiangjiang." ”

"The important reason for the development of the Kowloon Peninsula is that it is close to Hong Kong Island, and the distance between Tin Shui Wai and Kowloon Hong Kong Island is too far, and the traffic is inconvenient, which is the biggest problem. Wang Liming followed.

Ma Shimin said: "There are plans to build a New Territories Ring Road within the Hong Kong government, but it has been shelved because of the 97 issue.

I have an idea that if we are really going to build houses on a large scale in Tin Shui Wai in the future, then we can open a direct bus line from Tin Shui Wai to Kowloon, so that the traffic situation in Tin Shui Wai will be much better.

If the Hong Kong government builds the New Territories Loop Road in the future, it will be more convenient to get around. ”

Xu Zhi asked: "The bus line in Hong Kong is a franchise, and Kowloon Bus is equivalent to monopolizing all routes in Kowloon, do you also want to buy Kowloon Bus Bus?"

Ma Shimin said: "If it can be used by us, it doesn't matter if it is acquired, at present, Jiukong Bus is controlled by the Lei Juekun family, but as far as I know, the Lei family only holds 20% of the shares of Kowloon Bus." ”

Xu Zhi nodded and said, "Then let's buy it, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Wang Liming nodded and said: "This method is also possible, and as far as I know, Kowloon Bus also has a lot of land, but the Lei family does not have the ability to develop it on a large scale, and we will not lose money if we acquire it." ”

"Then let's do it for transportation. Xu Zhi nodded in agreement, in fact, the only quick way to get from Tin Shui Wai to Kowloon is the subway, and in the future 21st century, it will only take 18 minutes from the subway in Tin Shui Wai to the Kowloon Peninsula area.

However, the subway in Xiangjiang is different from other places in the world, the subway company is self-financed, although it can make money by selling land, but the subway price is also among the top in the world, which is tantamount to adding insult to the situation for Tin Shui Wai, which is already a slum in later generations, and finally has a way to get to the city quickly, but the high subway ticket is also a huge harm to office workers.

Not to mention that in this era, the development of the subway between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula has just begun, and it is impossible for the Hong Kong government to build a subway to Tin Shui Wai at this time.

Xu Zhi continued: "If we want to build a town in Tin Shui Wai on our own, we have to prepare several economic pillars for Tin Shui Wai that can develop in the long term, so I plan to build several large factories near Tin Shui Wai. Lao Yao, bring the things. ”
