The poor financial situation and poor infrastructure environment in the Wuling area have dealt a great blow to Ye Hetai, who was originally ambitious and wanted to do a career.

He realized that although he was mentally prepared, he was still too optimistic and underestimated the restrictions on corporate investment caused by backward infrastructure construction.

Judging from the conditions and environment of the peak, the county party committee and county government have not been involved in attracting investment before, but basically without exception, after the enterprises came to inspect, there was no news like a yellow crane.

Although the county has also created a so-called economic development zone, it is difficult to achieve the conditions of three links and one level, and the most important thing is that the road conditions of foreign transportation are the biggest constraints.

Although the Duyi Expressway has accelerated the project and entered the preparatory stage, such a highway with a huge amount of work, even if several sections are started at the same time, it is impossible to break through without a construction period of more than three years.

According to Ye Hetai's estimates, if it can be completed and opened to traffic by the end of 2003 or the first half of 2004, it will be very fast.

And what before that?

Do you just sit back and wait?

This is obviously not what Ye and Tai want.

Therefore, such an investment project by Dongfanghong Holdings and Naturetang Group is a great encouragement for the entire Wuling area.

This shows that although the infrastructure conditions are a big problem, they are not insurmountable, and as long as the regions and prefectures can show enough sincerity and positive attitudes in other aspects, there are still enterprises willing to invest.

Of course, this also requires local governments to explore their own characteristics and conditions according to local conditions, so as to provide more valuable projects to attract investors.

But in any case, Yeefung Natural Selenium-Rich Mineral Water Project has made a very good start, at least Ye Hetai feels that he will not be stammering during the meeting.

Such a project, of course, is not enough.

However, as Sha Zhengyang said just now, the "Fun Orchard" project of Fun Drink will be much larger in scale, and it will not only involve Laifeng County, but also several counties such as Baoling and Maba.

The investment is far more than Yeefung Natural Selenium-rich Mineral Water Project, which is expected to exceed 200 million yuan in the first phase and 400 million yuan in the second phase.

This is almost the largest single investment project in Wuling since the reform and opening up, and it can even be worth the total foreign investment in Wuling in the previous two or three years, and such a project cannot be lost in any way.

Moreover, such a project should focus on the all-round transformation and reconstruction of a large number of degraded or even abandoned fruit forests in several counties, which is simply the best channel to increase income for the vast number of farmers who cannot find a way to increase their income and lack labor skills in the mountainous rural areas.

From a mountain farmer with an annual income of only a few hundred yuan to an agricultural worker in an orchard, the income may even be several times, and there is no need to leave the hometown.

The idea and planning are very beautiful, if it can be realized, it can indeed achieve this goal, and the fun drink also has this strength, but Ye Hetai knows that the follow-up workload is very large, but it is worth it.

A few people talked as they walked.

Although the basic conditions of the Wuling area are poor, its natural resources are still quite attractive to these food and beverage companies under Dongfanghong.

Of course, if you want to achieve the goal overnight, it is unrealistic, but with the opening of the high-speed in three or four years, the transportation conditions have been greatly improved, then the layout at this time should be able to usher in a bumper harvest period.

Yeefung Natural Selenium-Rich Mineral Water Project is not too big, it can only be regarded as a test of water, and it is a niche high-end product in itself, so it is acceptable.

The "Fun Orchard" project is relatively large, and it is directly related to the juice strategy of fun drinks in the future, so it is not too early to lay out.

It will take at least two or three or even four or five years for these original orchards and barren mountains to be transformed and developed, so it should be appropriate to enter at this time, and you can also take the opportunity to take the lead.

Ye Hetai also knew that the relationship between Sha Zhengyang and Dongfanghong was not ordinary, and Ning Yuechan and Gao Baishan were obviously Sha Zhengyang's "descendants", and they spoke more openly many times.

Gao Yatao, the first secretary of the Laifeng County Party Committee, and Jing Wenzhou, the county magistrate, also deliberately slowed down and discussed some specific details with Gao Baishan, a serious investor.

"I don't know how long you can be the deputy director of the Development and Planning Commission?" Ye Hetai glanced at Sha Zhengyang, "I originally said that you should plan and plan how to attract investment and cultivate the tea industry and medicinal material industry in our Wuling area, but when I heard the news, I am afraid that you will not stay long?"

Ning Yuechan also glanced at Sha Zhengyang.

For Sha Zhengyang, Ning Yuechan has become more and more regarded as one of her younger brothers, although the two had such an ambiguous relationship before, but with Sha Zhengyang's continuous growth, Ning Yuechan has already wielded a sword to cut the love thread, and buried this relationship firmly in her heart, at this time she has more of a family-like concern for Sha Zhengyang.

Ning Yuechan, as the chairman of Dongfanghong (Holdings) Group and the helmsman of Hanchuan Province's leading non-state-owned large enterprise group, in fact, she has long been unable to separate herself from all aspects of Hanchuan Province, even if she can keep a certain distance from politicians and officials, but some things are unavoidable, so her well-informed level is no worse than Ye Hetai.

Ye Hetai is the head of the organization, so he naturally has his own channels, so he has some confidence to ask this.

"Maybe it's possible. Sha Zhengyang did not deny that this trend is not groundless, since Mao Xiangdong has made up his mind, he will definitely find a way from various channels, of course, if the main leaders of the provincial party committee can be persuaded to agree, it will be relatively simple.

"Handu?" Ye Hetai nodded, "You are the most suitable to go to Handu, and you can show yourself the most, it turns out that I think it would be great if you could go back to Wanzhou, Wanzhou is also very suitable for you in all aspects, but Handu is better." Ye Hetai answered.

"Handu is more likely. In front of Ye Hetai and Ning Yuechan, Sha Zhengyang was not hypocritical, "Secretary Xiangdong wants me to help him grasp the development of the high-tech zone, that is, the Internet and electronics industry, maybe he feels that Handu is under great pressure to develop now, so I think I am more familiar with this work." ”

"Well, you can get Secretary Mao's attention, and with the performance of this summit forum, it's no wonder. Ye Hetai also muttered, "The conditions of Handu are very good in all aspects, and there are indeed advantages in developing the economy, but like our Wuling, it is very specific." ”

Sha Zhengyang thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Commissioner Ye, it will take time for the Duyi Expressway to be completed now, and the industrial development of the Wuling area is indeed very restricted, I think Wuling can still make a fuss about the fact that the Duyi Expressway will be completed and opened to traffic in three or four years, and see if it can attract some projects that take a long time to come in, first of all, the preliminary work will be done, I am personally more optimistic, the pharmaceutical industry, the food industry and tourism, especially the tourism industry, like Baoling, The conditions of Maba and Zizhugou are very rare, and what is lacking is only capital development and road traffic conditions, and even if these developments start immediately, it will take three or five years to see results, which can be synchronized with the completion and opening ,......of the Duyi Expressway."

Ye Hetai smiled bitterly, "Zhengyang, I don't know the situation in Wuling, but as you said, such a huge project must require big capital to enter before it can be started, but who will come now? Foreign capital is impossible, private capital I estimate that it is unbearable, and there is only state-owned capital, but the development of tourism resources in our province has not been put on the agenda, or not enough attention is paid to, it can be said that basically, no enterprise can afford such large-scale development and operation." ”

Dongfanghong can afford it, but the tourism industry is not the scope of Dongfanghong's industrial layout, as far as the current situation is concerned, Dongfanghong's stall has been spread out enough, and it is impossible to open up another front.

It is impossible for the state-owned enterprises in the province, Changhe Group, to divest even real estate and construction, and concentrate on operating the energy industry, who else?

"Commissioner Ye, it's not that there is no interest in this kind of assets and industries in China, but the key is that the scenery in the Wuling area is raised in the depths of the boudoir, and the traffic conditions limit its expansion of influence, so I suggest that you can contact the provincial or CCTV travel channel, or engage in an activity similar to the expedition, which can be compared with "China National Geographic", "China Photography", "Photography World" Carrying out such an influential magazine to carry out a cooperative promotion to expand its influence, I think this will help the scenery of the Wuling area to quickly open up, and maybe attract some investment opportunities in this area,......"

Sha Zhengyang has also been thinking about this problem, where are the objective conditions of reality, you can't choose, you can only do everything you can to seek to develop it as soon as possible, then you may have to pay some for many conditions, but this is also an opportunity to win time.

"Oh, adventure activities, cooperation with TV and magazines?" Ye Hetai was thrilled, this Sha Zhengyang's brain melon seeds are really easy to use, and he can figure out such an idea even if he is trying to survive.

"Zizhugou has a small reputation, but it is far from enough, and these large magazines, borrowing their resource platform, they also get a point of content, in addition, you can also consider cooperating with some exploration, cross-country, rock climbing non-governmental organizations that are now in vogue to build momentum, and even bring in the sports and tourism departments to operate together, to hype up the momentum, maybe there will be a few opportunities. The more Sha Zhengyang thinks about it, the clearer his thinking becomes, and this may really be an opportunity.
