"Uncle Zhang, walk slowly, waiting for your good news. ”

Gu Biao, together with other partners, personally sent Zhang Zhongmou to Kai Tak Airport and watched him get on the plane back to the United States.

"Thank you very much for all of your great intentions these days, you are all Chinese, dig a piece of cake from the American himself, it's time." Zhang Zhongmou said two polite words, and then prepared to board the plane.

"Whether the objective investment environment in Xiangjiang is satisfied, please worry about Gu Sheng. I'll be waiting for good news from you while I'm dealing with the aftermath of American cuisine. ”

Gu Biao smiled and opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Don't worry about the problem of land and planning, with me - the Xiangjiang government has also planned new areas and revitalized industry over the years."

You see, just talking about this Kai Tak Airport, when he came all the way just now, Uncle Zhang should also see it, how many institutions and organizations have claimed that Kai Tak Airport is too simple and does not conform to the positioning of Xiangjiang's international urban pattern, and they are all clamoring to reclaim land to build a new airport. Even if you have the courage to reclaim an airport, are you still afraid of land constraints? ”

It turned out that the last topic that Gu Biao and Zhang Zhongmou talked about was the last unresolved difficulty in their investment inspection and negotiation: the land problem faced by setting up a factory in Xiangjiang.

After taking all things into consideration, Zhang Zhongmou refused to set up a factory in the special zone on the other side of the strait, because if there was a disturbance in the international situation in the future, the risk of being controlled by the United States and Japan would be too great.

However, Xiangjiang has a high land price and is notoriously difficult to plan. This is an absolute disadvantage compared to Wanwan, and people in the international investment community are well aware of it.

Gu Biao's final parting words were of course nonsense, just to comfort Zhang Zhongmou, if he really wants to solve this problem, Gu Biao has to make great efforts.

"Did you mean what you just said?"

Seeing Zhang Zhongmou's flight flying away, Guo Taiming also got up to say goodbye, and Han Ting, the only friend who remained, couldn't help but ask Gu Biao.

Han Ting has been in the Special Economic Zone for several years, and she is well aware of the situation in Xiangjiang, of course, she knows how difficult it is to plan a new industrial park in Xiangjiang, or even just to sue for any development, and how much resistance there is from all sides, so she has this question.

"I can't say these things in a sentence or two, let's think about it in the long run on the way back. Gu Biao coped with it.

In the past few days, Han Ting has also accompanied Gu Biao to accompany potential collaborators to investigate, and she is very busy before and after the saddle. And she is very measured, in front of outsiders, she will never show a tendency to collude with Gu Biao.

Everything is so cold and businesslike, and the image of a foreign, calm and sophisticated business person with a sharp wrist is maintained extremely accurately.

On today's send-off day, of course, she is also wearing a meticulous women's office suit and a cashmere knee-length skirt.

In good conscience, in the past six months, Han Ting has still sacrificed. At the beginning of the year, as soon as Gu Biao returned to China, he told her in a righteous and solemn manner: During his public office, he should be cautious and independent, and strictly abide by organizational discipline.

What discipline doesn't allow you to do, you can't do even if no one knows about it.

Han Ting accepted it immediately, and really didn't bother Gu Biao for more than half a year, even if Gu Biao was in the Special Administrative Region on business.

For a woman who has just turned 36, it is really not easy to survive for half a year with such self-discipline and almost 37. It can also be seen that Han Ting is very enterprising and self-disciplined, and if she doesn't deceive the dark room, she won't deceive the dark room.

However, now Gu Biao has been fine for three months, so there is no obstacle to coming to Xiangjiang and the Special Economic Zone again this time. Whether it is to repay Han Ting's kindness or respect for her character, it is even profitable...... Alas, it's too vulgar to say.

If you don't expect to repay your kindness, why bother with words?

Anyway, it's just confusing and can't figure it out, so let's not talk about it.

……

"Of course I know how difficult it is to develop in Xiangjiang. Especially in the past two years, the Brittan dog thieves have completely known that they can't hold it, and all kinds of stumbling blocks have hindered the long-term development of the local area. However, I have a way. ”

On the return car, Gu Biao was in the same car with Han Ting, and when there was time in the traffic jam on the road, he told his thoughts in full.

"You don't really believe that 'Kai Tak Airport is not enough, a new international airport needs to be built' is also a symbol of the Bretonians giving in and contributing to local development. Han Ting's rhetorical question was obviously cut in and expanded from the breakthrough mentioned when she said goodbye to Zhang Zhongmou just now.

"In my opinion, if Xiangjiang wants to build a new airport, there is no need to fill in so much sea. Even if the site is unchanged and insists on Lantau Island, more gentle coastal slopes can be leveled. Leveling the mountains is much less expensive than reclaiming the land from scratch, at least five times as much.

Taking advantage of the last ten years of their final say in Xiangjiang, the Brittan authorities had to plan the general development program of land reclamation, which was clearly aimed at overstrengthening the local so-called 'environmental protection' forces and setting up obstacles for subsequent development after we Chinese took over completely. ”

Han Ting's words are really penetrating, and she is worthy of being a teacher who came out of the Foreign Affairs University back then, and she is simply insightful.

Since the mid-80s, the planning of Xiangjiang requires a new airport, and this decision itself is not a problem, and it is no problem to reclaim part of the sea. But the key is whether the degree of protection of the interests of environmental protection, Ding Quan, and so on is reasonable and whether it is nitpicky.

For example, if you engage in a project, if the requirements for environmental protection are 95%, it may be a price, if it is increased to 98%, the cost may be doubled, and you have to pursue 100%, then maybe it will be doubled again.

In the same way, if a country's tolerance for the death of people in car accidents every year is reduced from 1 in 10,000 of the national population to "no one is allowed to die", it will definitely lead to the paralysis of social transportation and the failure of the entire economy.

This is not to say that life can be traded at a fixed price, but that people in specific fields of practice must accept the reality and not just sing high-pitched songs.

And the Bretanians are obviously moved, "Anyway, the financial money in more than ten years has nothing to do with me, so I eat and wipe clean before leaving." Not only do they have to spend all the cash, but they also have to borrow a large amount of basic development bonds, and then leave the deficit deficit to the person who takes over to pay it off."

Under the guidance of this kind of thinking, it is natural to be able to find fault with everything, make the cost the most expensive, and do not pay attention to efficiency at all. At the same time, after singing in a high-profile manner, it will become difficult for others to talk about benefits, and it is easy to be criticized by keyboard trolls who don't do things.

Gu Biao knew that what Han Ting said was true, but his attitude was still optimistic: "I don't know what you said, but the problem is not so serious - at least than I once imagined, the bad things that the Bretanians might do have been blocked, and the rest are small problems, which can always be solved by finding a way." ”

The reason why Gu Biao is optimistic is obviously because he knows that the current situation is much better than that of parallel time and space-

Two years ago, when he installed Mina in the international relations research office of the ministry, the top-secret internal reference of a series of risk control assessments finally played a role, and in the bilateral memorandum, several points were blocked in advance, so that the Bretons made the operation space of fraud much smaller.

Now, Gu Biao can at least not think much about the issue of "Ding Quan, which has suddenly expanded compared to previous years", and he can spend a lot less energy on dealing with Xiangjiang nail households. The difficulty of land acquisition for development projects is still the same as in the 70s and 60s, and has not increased.

The only thing that needs to be solved is that there are some organizations and forces that refuse all development under the pretext of environmental protection, but these forces are also weaker than the same period in history, and they have fewer excuses to fight.

It's hard to say much about the specifics, anyway, it was all blocked by Gu Biao through the channels of the International Relations Research Office under the pretense of Mina's hand.

Therefore, if you omit the details that are inconvenient to describe and just talk about the conclusion, that is, in the 90s and even the new century, the development process that the people of Xiangjiang have delayed for 20 years and cannot be completed, and it may not be without opportunities in the hands of Gu Biao.

Han Ting listened to Gu Biao's slight analysis, and also roughly realized where the main contradiction was, and realized that "at least more possibilities for deterioration have been blocked", and regained some confidence.

Han Ting continued to ask: "So, let's put it bluntly, if you bring Zhang Zhongmou here, where are you going to put the future semiconductor industrial park and supporting facilities? Or, which area do you expect the authorities and local tycoons to cooperate with you to develop?"

"I can't tell you about this in the car, I'll show you the map when I go back to the house in a while. Gu Biao explained.

Han Ting was no longer entangled, just quietly leaning against the car window and looking at the street scene outside the window. Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at Gu Yuan on Baijia Road at the top of the mountain.

Han Ting didn't push back, just pushed the door in as if it was her own home, and took out a map of Xiangjiang with a very detailed scale from Gu Biao's study, spread it out on the desk, and prepared for an in-depth discussion.

Xiangjiang is not as urbanized as most people think, and if you really smooth out some obstacles, there are still many places that can be developed-

As mentioned earlier, even in the 2010s, urbanization was only 30 percent, and in the 80s it was only 25 percent. Another 75% are rural, completely undeveloped forests and wetlands.

At the same time, these rural areas, forests and wetlands are not completely forbidden to be developed by policy, and in the past 20 years, the Bretanians have presided over the development of several new towns.

The general progression is as follows: First, before the 50s, there was no need for Hong Kong to develop the New Territories. Because before World War II, the financial center and media center of the Far East was Hujiang, and Xiangjiang had no advantage at all. After the invasion of the Japanese army, a large number of Hujiang capital and talents poured into the south, and Xiangjiang was initially developed.

Throughout the 50s, Xiangjiang was nothing more than a post-war reconstruction and recuperation, and the problem of population expansion did not go beyond the new satellite city of Hong Kong/Kowloon. The expansion of the "autocratic" plan of the Bretanians began in the 60s, and it has been "autocratic" very efficiently and effectively, without consulting the locals.
