Chapter 330: Jiangdong Xiao'er didn't dare to cry at night
After Gu Biao returned to Qiantang, he rested for three days, and he was not busy with anything serious, and it was August 25th Qixi Festival in a blink of an eye.
That is, the day when my sister Gu Min and brother-in-law Yang Xin got married.
Gu Fushang ushered in the send-off, and also went to the exhibition hotel to hold a banquet and invited twenty tables. The elders and relatives of the Yang family were also invited from the capital, and they had a good time.
Dad is still relatively low-key, and he doesn't want to embarrass the man's in-laws, so he didn't deliberately show off his wealth, and all the expenses of the entire wedding didn't cost 100,000 yuan. And after that, I have to go back to Yang's house in the capital to put it again, and save face for the other party.
There is a lot of red tape, so naturally there is no need to repeat it.
Both of them are in line with the national policy of late marriage, so Gu Min already has half a month's vacation, and she can also take extra personal leave. As for Yang Xin's side, the unit originally allowed him to report later.
The day after the wedding, Gu Biao took Xiao Sui to his sister's newlywed villa.
After saying something like wishing the newlyweds a happy wedding, Gu Biao asked about her sister's specific plans.
Gu Min: "We will go to the capital the day after tomorrow to set up wine, and go abroad for our honeymoon on September 1st - Ashin will go to Tokyo to join the company before the National Day, and he has an official ticket quota and a passport, so he can go in advance." I also paid for my own air tickets and visas, and I went to Yuben for a month, which can be regarded as a honeymoon. β
Gu Biao: "Then you guys have fun." By the way, when you come back, remember to help me keep an eye on the project in Xiao County. The money and the engineering team can be outsourced, but the project is not good and no one is watching at all. The domestic supervision is not professional, I specially invited the supervision unit from Xiangjiang to supervise the work, and the project personnel can be dismissed if they do not perform well. But in the end, I still need you to help me catch the boss. β
After all, it is a large investment project with nearly 10 million US dollars and more RMB low-interest loans, and if you really shake off your hands, something big will definitely happen, and Gu Biao still has this awareness.
Gu Min smiled bitterly, and took his younger brother's request self-deprecatingly: "Alas, I am also miserable, you went to the United States, and you were the shopkeeper, and Suizi is a person who doesn't understand business, so don't you fall on my shoulders."
But I'm also busy in the Planning Commission, let Dad and Aunt Xue help you keep an eye on it, Aunt Xue is the chief of the financial department, and she is sharper than me when she looks at the accounts, since she is a family, these must be helped. β
Gu Biao: "If you think it's okay, you can just tell her, I'm not familiar with her." β
It's a foregone conclusion.
After saying goodbye to his sister, the Gu family was cleaned, and Gu Biao and Qiu Qing chatted about some project matters, finalized the details of the IEC conference reception at the beginning of next year, and almost returned to the United States.
It's September soon, and Xiao Sui is going back to school for her senior year.
The film infrastructure company in Monaco's skin has also invested tens of millions of dollars, first taking out $6 million to build the first phase of the New Yuan Ming Palace.
Design work and quantity estimation have already begun, and construction will begin in September.
The city's CCB low-interest loan will also be in place within a month.
The remaining small part of the US dollars first invested in some supporting facilities in Qiantang City and Xiao County, mainly in the international standard hotel and service industry - the charter boat king donated to build the Zhaolong Hotel in Hujiang, which cost 10 million US dollars, and Huo Ye's white swan in Guangdong was twice as expensive. Therefore, Gu Biao spent two or three million, which can only be said to be decent, more advanced than the current exhibition hotel in Qiantang, but he does not dare to compare with Hujiang and Yuezhou.
He doesn't want to operate these industries, and in the future, after the development of the cinema and the city's tourism industry, it has been proved that these hotels and supporting tourism service assets can make money, and Gu Biao is ready to auction the hotel he invested, and he believes that there will be professional Hong Kong businessmen to take over the investment, or the management will also be able to raise funds after the MBO.
Gu Biao's own industrial chain should not be too large, he only plans to hold the core industry for a long time, and all the supporting facilities will be lost to the supplier. It's just that at the beginning, there was no supplier optimistic, and there was a time lag in the willingness to follow up, so Gu Biao invested a little bit by himself to prove that it was profitable to show others here.
In addition, after a preliminary estimate of the amount of work and the list of fakes, the designer reported to Gu Biao that the current $6 million and the first batch of 100 million yuan of low-interest loans were only enough to repair a few attractions in the filming plan.
It is mainly the Western Building, as well as the supporting Ten Thousand Gardens and the Great Water Law. There is also the Changchun Pavilion in the Changchun Garden and the Yingtai Xianshan in Fuhai. The renovated filming park totals less than 400 acres, accounting for only one percent of the panoramic view of the Old Summer Palace at most.
This price is still relatively reasonable, because Gu Biao does not need to completely rebuild the Old Summer Palace, the project is too huge. After all, the historical Old Summer Palace was a huge royal garden, covering an area of four or five square kilometers.
What Gu Biao can use in the filming of "The Last Emperor" is at best only three or four buildings and gardens that still have unburned ruins in the capital. As for other things that have completely disappeared, it is impossible to do the kind of effect that reflects the weathering and contrast of time changes in the movie.
What he needs for the time being is just a gimmick to brag, and to occupy this pit, not to really throw a large amount of money into this kind of excessive investment that cannot be recovered for ten years.
Later, in the 2010s, Hengdian completely rebuilt 100% of the buildings and parks of the New Old Summer Palace in a ratio of 1:1, which cost 28 billion yuan in infrastructure investment.
Even considering that labor is extremely cheap nowadays, land is almost free of money, and a lot of labor security and design expenses have dropped sharply by more than ten times, and some prices are low. The cost engineer gave Gu Biao a preliminary calculation, and the panoramic view of the Old Summer Palace would be rebuilt within 5 years, which would also require a budget of more than 3 billion yuan.
Because the materials and construction machinery of the 80s were not much cheaper than in later generations. For example, the price of steel in 2012 has less than doubled compared with 1982. (Counting the comparison of the unplanned black market steel in 82 years and the market price of later generations.) You can't compare the planned price. In the early 80s, the planned price of steel bars was only 7,801 tons, but the black market price was still more than 2,000. οΌ
It's just manpower, land, and insurance that are hugely cheap. In addition, the price of wood and stone is extremely low, especially wood, high-quality wood in the 80s is much cheaper than steel bar, and it has risen dozens of times in later generations.
All things considered, Gu Biao spent 5 million US dollars and 100 million yuan to reluctantly repair 3 buildings and palaces and supporting landscapes, accounting for 10% of the whole park. In terms of making movies and occupying the pit, these are enough.
If you want to calculate a finer account, it is, of course, the 80s priority to repair those antique buildings that need to use a lot of wood is the most profitable, and the rest of the wood can be left until the 90s to build slowly, because wood is the thing with the largest price increase in the future.
Xiao Sui had to follow the changes in Gu Ao's construction plan and fine-tune the additional scenes on the script in real time, so he also followed up Gu Ao's work throughout the whole process, and sang with his wife every day.
Regarding Gu Biao's statement of "occupying the pit of the righteous name of the Yuanming New Garden in advance", Xiao Sui did not understand it at first. However, she was used to her husband's foresight, so she asked directly this time.
Gu Biao also gave an explanation.
"At present, it is very important to occupy the construction authorization of the New Yuan Ming Palace. Because the national policy will be adjusted within two or three years. At present, the state has issued a document on the protection of cultural relics, and it is not allowed to export cultural relics in batches for foreign exchange. According to this trend, in the next two years, it will not only be 'not allowed to be exported in batches', but will not be allowed to be exported at all.
In general, the national policy is developing towards a trend of paying more and more attention to the protection of traditional culture. At that time, the ruins of the Old Summer Palace in the capital will definitely be officially built as a reserve park. The Ministry of Culture will also strictly control the right to approve the creation of counterfeit products at the local level. If it weren't for the sword of Shang Fang in "The Last Emperor" this time, why would we let a place like Qiantang take advantage of such a big tourism industry in the future? In less than ten years, everyone will realize that this is a cash cow for tourism, and everyone will want to grab it when the time comes. β
What Gu Biao said is true, because the biggest obstacle for Hengdian to build a complete "New Yuan Ming Palace" in later generations is the approval of the state, and the Ministry of Culture can think that you are a few fools, not serious, and blasphemous.
The reason why Hengdian was finally caused was, in the final analysis, because Xie Jin occupied the pit when he filmed "Opium War" in 94, and first built the Western Mansion and several other palaces used in the Xianfeng and Cixi plots in the film, so the follow-up can be interpreted as "expansion in the original foundation and cultural background".
At the beginning of the 21st century, there were more than ten provinces and cities in China that wanted to seize the cultural and economic interests of "rebuilding the Old Summer Palace". The reason why those places were killed by the Ministry of Culture in the competition and couldn't grab the goose that lays golden eggs in the tourism industry is because they lost a trick in the "historical heritage" and failed to seize the opportunity of Xie Jin back then.
Otherwise, how can the investment of 30 billion yuan be limited to the real estate fanatics who had so much hot money in the 2010s that they burned bags and had no project investment.
If this kind of project is grabbed, even if the tourism, catering, accommodation, and souvenir industries in the park themselves cannot return 30 billion yuan. However, the increase brought by the appreciation of real estate in the city is definitely far more than 30 billion. In the era of real estate in charge, this is absolutely N provinces and cities crazy robbery.
Similarly, it is also based on this consideration that Gu Ao's project requires the local land to be approved much larger than the construction requirement, even if only 400 acres of the park is built at the beginning, the 6,000 acres of land required for the entire Old Summer Palace will be taken - when 6,000 acres are really built in the future, then at least tens of thousands of acres will be taken.
Anyway, the mountain fields, barren hills, and wetlands are not worth much now, and the current location of the place is too remote. If it is worth money in the future, it will also be valuable to Gu Biao Construction, and he should enjoy the benefits of the majority.
β¦β¦
Gu Biao was busy in Qiantang until September 4.
Even his girlfriend has gone back to Hujiang after school, and my sister went on her honeymoon, the villa on Beishan Road was empty and no one lived in it.
The day before leaving, after buying a plane ticket and making other preparations, Qiu Qing came to the door again, practiced for him, and reported the latest situation.
"Brother, have a nice trip. After arriving in the United States, I will always contact you, and I will help you keep an eye on your investment here. Mayor Li also praised your kindness in investing in your hometown. Qiu Qing was full of spring breeze, and said good things like money.
Gu Biao poured a glass of practice wine for each of them: "I know, when my sister got married and set up the wine that day, Mayor Li personally pulled me to chat privately for a long time, and I understand what he meant, and I will not hesitate to cooperate with what can be cooperated, win-win things." β
On the day of Gu Biao's sister's wedding, even the leaders of the province came to drink, and the mayor of the city came directly, these Qiu Qing all knew, and he also came to cheer that day. It's just that he can't know about the mayor's private chat with Gu Biao.
"That's really good, it's a blessing of the times that our Qiantang can cultivate a talent like Gu Sheng and you. Qiu Qing said, and the conversation turned to report,
"There is one thing, let me tell you, the counties and Huiji City are also ruthless, and they must cooperate with the rectification. The state-owned copper factory in the county is already being rectified. Small township copper factories are too polluting, undisciplined, and inefficient and indiscriminate, and either merge or improve the process and management.
Of the nine factories, seven are willing to cooperate, and now five are synthesized, and they are all willing to bid for Xiaoxian Cinema as a shortlisted props supplier in the future. However, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and there are a few speculative ones, that is, they are reluctant to steal and drain their own secrets, make money privately, and hit the muzzle of the gun, and two factories have been forcibly dismantled and merged, and the speculative elements have also been dealt with. Lu Damin is afraid of throwing his eyes to the blind, let me inform you, it can be regarded as a vote. β
When Gu Biao heard this, he was slightly surprised: "What's the matter? You still deal with it seriously? It's not because you want to cooperate with me, just guard against pollution, then I don't want to go." β
Qiu Qing clarified: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about not going. This year's state document already says that serious crimes in the economic field must be strictly investigated. Their incident happened, and they should have been damned - Lu Damin just further intensified the strict investigation after you went.
It was found that the owner of one of the copper factories had also colluded with the director of the state-owned copper mine in the county to make false accounts and steal the state's copper mines. Dig out and steal the country's copper ore, it's worth hundreds of thousands, and he deserves to be shot!"
Gu Biao was taken aback, and secretly thought that he was fortunate that he would study at Kissinger this year and next year. The special rectification in the past two years has really been very ruthless.
He carefully confirmed that one of the two owners who had been banned was also shot by father and son (because they were both involved in stealing the country's mines, and according to Chinese law, no matter who the land belongs to, all the mines in China belong to the state. In the 82 years of special economic rectification, stealing the country's mining and smelting is a felony), and the other did not steal directly, but only helped sell the stolen goods, and was sent to the northwest to plant trees and reform through labor.
Along with the director of the state-run copper mine in that county, he was also shot. LΓΌ Damin later recommended a reliable henchman to be the mine manager.
I didn't expect Lu Damin to be a werewolf, so he was so decisive after identifying it.
It is estimated that Gu Biao's reputation there in the future will also make people respect and fear - you can make a lot of money by following him, and you don't need Gu Biao to frame you if you do anything with him, just if your own is exposed, you will be bombarded and killed into scum.
From Wang Pingshan, the director of the tea farm, who offended Gu Biao and was exterminated, to the speculative and dumping of the director of the small copper factory, Wang was killed for stealing mines and polluting private smelting, and then to the director of the state-owned copper mine Wang was shot......
It is enough to stop a child's night crying.
