"Then what are you going to do?" Wu Peng asked.

Xu Zhidao: "Let's just say that there are more than 100 people in your document, do you really contact them one by one, and when you convince them all, it is estimated that the Spring Festival in 82 is coming, and we need hundreds or even thousands of talents in this area in the future, and the most effective way to do this kind of thing is to cooperate with them." ”

Wu Peng asked: "Then go directly to the secretary of the Shanghai Film Studio?"

"You can mix in Shanghai, you actually know that there is the largest clerk in a factory. Xu Zhi smiled and vetoed: "There's no need to waste time negotiating with the people in the factory, I'm going to go directly to the people in the government, which department is in charge of this film studio?"

Wu Peng replied: "Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Culture, do you plan to go directly to their director?"

"Yes, it will be much easier to negotiate with the government!" Xu Zhi said with a shrug.

"Okay, you're amazing!" Wu Peng gave a thumbs up and smiled.

Xu Zhi said again: "I will leave Shanghai in a few days, do you want to go back to Xiangjiang with me, or continue to stay in Shanghai?"

"Of course go back to Xiangjiang!" Wu Peng said directly without thinking about it.

Xu Zhi smiled: "I thought you fell in love with Shanghai!"

"Yes, yes. Wu Peng said with some reluctance: "But I'm afraid that if I stay here any longer, my life will be gone."

"What do you mean?" Xu Zhi was a little puzzled.

Wu Peng asked: "Ah Zhi, you also lived in Shanghai during this time, so you didn't find the air quality every morning?"

"It's very bad. Xu Zhi frowned and said: "I actually know some about the pollution in Shanghai, but I didn't expect it to be so serious!"

Speaking of the smog of later generations, many people will be nostalgic for the environment of the mainland in the 80s, with beautiful mountains and rivers and fresh air. This sentence is basically good in the mainland, including the capital, but it is not suitable for Shanghai.

As early as the Republic of China, Shanghai was the core of the mainland's industry, and at its peak, Shanghai's GDP accounted for 40% of the country's total, which also made Shanghai the largest city in Asia at that time.

But like London, which was known as the foggy capital in the 19th century, development means pollution, and since the Republic of China, Shanghai has been the most polluted city in the country.

Although many companies moved west because of the war, the core problem was still not solved, and until the 80s, decades of industrial pollution have begun to eat back into the city.

Industry is booming, pollution is rising, the river is black, and the people are suffering!

This sentence is actually the mother river of Shanghai City - Suzhou River!

As early as 78 years, the local ducks had a serious abnormality, and later the Shanghai Municipal Health Bureau found that the cadmium in the river exceeded the standard by 327 times, and if the heavy metal cadmium was absorbed excessively, it would cause "painful disease", which once ravaged Japan's Shentongchuan County.

Fortunately, it was discovered early and a tragedy was avoided in time, but this pollution was actually only a microcosm of the negative effects of Shanghai's industrial development at that time.

In the 80s, the environmental problems in Shanghai have reached the point where they can no longer be tolerated, and the 53-kilometer section of the Suzhou River through Shanghai has become stinky, and the fish in the river are not even willing to be eaten by cats.

Even the entire Huangpu River, the source of water in Shanghai, is polluted, with half of the year covered in sewage. At this moment, Europeans and Americans, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan who come to Shanghai bring their own drinking water.

But these are not problems, there is pollution control, but the biggest problem is finance, now the national economy is in the recovery period, there is no money in Shanghai, the central government has no money, and the Baosteel project is a huge gold swallowing beast.

In this era, Shanghai had at least 10 economic firsts, such as industrial output value accounting for one-eighth of the country's total, industrial products exporting foreign exchange accounting for one-quarter of the country's total, fiscal revenue accounting for one-sixth of the country's total, per capita GDP, unit energy, and so on.

However, the biggest problem is that the fiscal revenue and foreign exchange earnings of Shanghai City are basically handed over to the central government, and it can be said that Shanghai is the magic needle of the country's economic stability.

Before the tax reform in 94, the tax payment of various provinces to the central government was not the same as that of later generations, which also led to the difficulty of the central tax collection.

Therefore, Shanghai is the son of the central government, and many projects such as Baosteel and SAIC Volkswagen have settled in Shanghai, in fact, this is the reason!

Pay for it.

Wu Peng continued: "You have only been here for a few days, and you are also staying in a prosperous place, I really don't know the real situation in Shanghai, outside Puxi, every morning ordinary people make briquette stoves on the street, there is smoke everywhere, and toilets are washed by the river."

In fact, this is not a problem, the key is that there are too many people, and the small rivers are all smelly, not to mention those industrial pollution.

You say that the water I drink can be imported from Xiangjiang, but I can't use imported water for bathing! And sometimes the air quality is really not ordinarily bad, and I'm afraid I'll get cancer if I stay any longer. ”

"Okay, I see, then you can go back with me. Xu Zhi thought for a while and asked: "In addition to the search for comic talents, do you have any gains in other aspects, and what projects do you think are worthy of our company's investment in Shanghai?"

Let Wu Peng come to Shanghai, in addition to looking for talents in comics, another purpose is to find out the current economic situation in Shanghai, what are the places worth investing, and at the same time, we must also consider the current legal restrictions.

Wu Peng said with a smile: "At present, the core area of Shanghai's economy is Nanjing East Road, where it is crowded with people on weekends, especially the First Department Store, which has 200,000 people entering and exiting every Sunday, and it is said that the turnover last year was as high as 140 million US dollars at the current exchange rate." ”

"140 million US dollars?" Xu Zhi couldn't believe that in Xiangjiang, although the annual turnover of Watsons under Hutchison exceeded this amount, it was the sum of hundreds of companies.

"Yes, that's right. Wu Peng smiled and said: "That person is crowded, more exaggerated than the subway in Xiangjiang, you want to invest in the mainland, this is a good choice, but the mainland law only allows joint ventures, and it is impossible to buy it." ”

Xu Zhi shook his head and said: "A joint venture is also unlikely, this is a golden land in Shanghai, there is no big benefit, and the government will not transfer it." ”

"That's right. Wu Peng continued: "During this period of time, I stayed in Shanghai, relying on the tiger skin of the Midea company, and also met many officials, the biggest problem in Shanghai is that a large amount of finance has been handed over to the central government, resulting in their own inability to develop some livelihood infrastructure projects, I know that your Hutchison company is enthusiastic about infrastructure investment, I know that an infrastructure project, can definitely make money." ”
