It was already late at night when he returned to Qingsha, but Song Hongqi still dragged him to the county for a meeting, and only came back at dawn with his tired body; after sleeping for less than three or four hours, he had to get up and go out to the river embankment to take charge of the flood control work in the section of the river he was in charge of.

Xie Zhi set off from Qingsha at nine o'clock and crossed the river by car.

Although the rain stopped in the early morning, but the sky was hazy, the dark clouds were dense, turn on the radio in the car, it seems that the rain is flooding all over the country, the upper reaches of the Zhujiang River are the mining area and avoid the direct impact of Xucheng City, it is planned to break the embankment and discharge the flood to the south bank in the direction of the upper reaches of Xucheng.

The radio reported that the province's direct damage caused by the floods is close to 5 billion yuan so far, and this rainy summer has not passed halfway.

The cross-river steam ferry was strictly restricted, and Xie Zhi stopped in front of the ferry for more than an hour before crossing the river, and it was already noon in Donghua City.

Xie Zhi did not stop in Donghua City, and together with the company's manager and supervisor in charge of tourism business, he drove to Yushan to catch up.

Before the real development of the domestic economy, before the local per capita income level is raised, the scale of the domestic tourism market has been very narrow, but this does not mean that there is little room for future development.

This is quite similar to commercial real estate.

In '94, the transfer price of commercial land in Donghua City's Cuihu business district was less than 2 million per mu; when Shen Huai promoted the construction of Meixi New Town, the high price of commercial land sold at 1 million per mu made many people's jaws drop.

However, in the past three or four years, the auction price of commercial land in the business district on the north shore of Cuihu Lake has skyrocketed to seven or eight million per mu, and it is still difficult to find a single land, and commercial land in Meixi New District is also hovering around four million per mu.

There are not many particularly high-quality tourism resources along the Huaihai Bay, and after the rise of the regional economy along the Huaihai Bay, the regional tourism market will gather in Yuanshan, which is basically a consensus.

The Donghua Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government also proposed to promote the development of the tourism industry in Yushan very early.

When the city was planning to build the Yuanjin Expressway, the enterprises and investors who were optimistic about the development of the tourism industry in Yuanshan also had a period of restlessness.

Convenient transportation is possible to call the beautiful scenery in the eastern ridge of the deep Tibetan mountain, and more fully reflect the market value. This point has been fully proved by the fact that after the completion of the Yuanjin Highway, the sporadic tourism market in eastern Yushan Province has rapidly formed a market output value of more than 200 million yuan within one or two years, and the income of the tourism market of Yushan County last year was 200 million yuan, which opened up a corner of the entire tourism industry in Yuanshan.

Once the Yuanjin Expressway is completed, the journey from the city to Yuanshan will be shortened to half an hour; it will only take more than an hour to take the expressway from Yicheng to the eastern ridge of Yuanshan; and the journey from Lanshan City in the north to Yuanshan will also be shortened by nearly half because of the extension of the Haiphong Highway, the expansion of the Jinghai Highway, and the construction of the Yuanjin Expressway.

At the same time, the formation of railway passenger transport, the increase of flights and other convenient transportation conditions such as passenger ferries, stimulated by the rapid economic growth and the substantial increase in the income of urban and rural residents, are conducive to the rapid development of the regional tourism market.

When investors are looking for potential industries with high growth potential in the future along the Huai Bay area, there is no reason not to set their sights on the tourism industry in Yuanshan.

However, with the repeated adjustment of the overall construction plan of Donghua City, the construction of the Yuanjin Expressway has been postponed indefinitely, and the restlessness of the previous year has been limited.

In the face of possible local policy risks, SITC Group has also begun to retreat.

Xie Zhi's personal opinion is different.

In the past few years, SITC's investments in Hong Kong, Guangzhou and Shenzhen have been too speculative. Although the Xie family relied on deep connections and political background in the mid-to-late 80s and early 90s to quickly accumulate huge assets through this style of doing business, the speculative decision-making that was too scattered and lacked foresight left few core businesses that could be relied on for a long time, which also caused SITC Group to experience serious fatigue due to sluggish growth in recent years.

Xie Zhi feels that when SITC Group chooses a new development direction, it is time to give up the speculative mentality, redouble its attention and attention, or put its limited resources into those industries with longer cycles but higher growth and greater development potential, and also need to be more professional, in-depth and sustainable in an industry.

A few years ago, Tianyi Group invested in the share price of Hua Industrial Co., Ltd., and issued additional funds to central enterprises such as Jinshi Rongxin to raise enough funds for the construction of projects such as the Yuanjin Expressway and Xinjin Port, which in itself was a speculation with great risks.

The setback of Zihua Industrial's additional issuance, the failure of the construction plan of the Yuanjin Expressway, and the indefinite postponement are all risks that all those who plan to invest in the tourism industry in Yuanshan must consider in advance.

These things happened, but they only brought all the rhythm back on track, but did not change the expectation of high growth of the tourism industry in Yushan in the future.

Perhaps the development cycle of the tourism industry in Yuanshan will be longer due to this setback, but when other investors retreat, for SITC, which adheres to the original plan, it is actually to reduce the competitive pressure and help to intervene in the development of the tourism industry in Yuanshan at a lower cost.

At the same time, it should also be noted that although Meigang has not taken much action in Yuanshan, the pace of promoting and intervening in the development of Yuanshan's tourism industry has not stopped since it was launched two and a half years ago.

For example, during Shen Huai's short-term tenure in Yuanshan, he set up a tourism office under the county government, and Feng Yumei, the deputy director of the government office at that time, was also the director of the tourism office. After Shen Huai was transferred from Yuanshan, Yuanshan was the first to establish a county-level tourism bureau, and Feng Yumei served as the director and party secretary. In the case of financial constraints, the Yushan County Party Committee and the county government are still trying to squeeze out as much money as possible to improve the infrastructure of the scenic spot.

In the past two years, Meigang has not made much direct investment in Yushan, but it involves accommodation, catering, finance, transportation, and scenic spot construction, which are closely related to the tourism industry, and have also laid a pretty good foundation for the development of the tourism industry in Yushan.

The Huaihai Government Construction Fund established by Shen Huai in the name of the Xiapu County Government can be used for infrastructure projects in Jiangyan and Beicheng, and naturally can also be used for tourism infrastructure projects in Yushan.

This also means that the development of the tourism industry in Yushan may be accelerated at any time under the direct intervention of Shen Huai.

Xie Zhi didn't sleep well last night, and after meeting the company's employees in Donghua, she sat in the back seat of the car, thinking about some things.

As I walked along the Meipu Highway, the sky began to rain lightly again.

The water conservancy facilities in Donghua are quite perfect, and the continuous rain will only make this summer more shady and cold, so that the canopy looks like it has been washed, and will not cause serious flooding in Donghua, and there is no tension along the Meipu Highway.

After turning onto the Yuanpu Highway, the situation along the road was very different, Xie Zhi saw several large military trucks walking with them into the mountain.

There was no garrison in Yushan County, there was a battalion garrison in Xinlian Town, north of Xiapu, and the construction of a port for the Huaihai Fleet began. Seeing so many large military trucks pulling people into Yuanshan, Xie Zhi also knew in her heart that the Yuanshan Lake Reservoir and the middle and lower reaches of the river had launched higher-level flood control measures.

Xie Zhi asked the driver to transfer the on-board radio to the Donghua City Traffic Radio Station, mainly to broadcast the flood control and rescue in the middle and upper reaches of the Zhujiang River, and there were no reports of the danger of the Yuanxi River for half a day: perhaps it was only at the insistence of Shen Huai and a few other people that the Yuanshan Lake Reservoir launched high-level flood control measures, and more people did not seem to think that there would be any serious danger along the Yuanxi River.

The Dongyuxi River descends from Yuanshan Mountain, turns north on the west side of Cheqianling, and merges with the Beiyuanxi River in Sanshan Town to form the Yuanxi River - and the Yuanpu Highway goes west along the north bank of the Dongyuanxi River after crossing the Cheqianling Tunnel and Lingxi Bridge, until it reaches the county seat of Yuanshan.

After the rain subsided yesterday, there was no heavy precipitation in the eastern ridge area of the mountain, and the Dongyu River on the south side of the road was turbid and turbulent, which undoubtedly showed that the reservoir of Yuanshan Lake should open the gate before noon to release water, and began to prepare in advance for the heavy rain that may come tomorrow.

Although the weather forecast said that the rain might not be small at the beginning of this night, Xie Zhi lacked an intuitive impression of this, and after arriving in Yushan, he lazily paid attention to the information of the rain and focused on the affairs to be discussed this time.

The person who is responsible for contacting her and discussing investment promotion and cooperation here in Yushan County is also Feng Yumei, director of the county tourism bureau, who is also the assistant to the county magistrate.

Xie Zhi is interested in the development of Hanling Village Old Street, which is located on the south bank of Dongyu River.

Hanling is an ancient village, surrounded by mountains on three sides, facing a stream, separated by a ridge from the planning area of the new site of the county seat of Yuanshan, separated by the Dongyuxi River from the old county town of Yuanshan, most of the buildings have a history of three or four hundred years, the style is well preserved, and the government of Yuanshan County has delineated the ancient village protection area covering an area of more than 80 acres there.

Xie Zhi's company was to undertake the project, in addition to the protective commercial development of the area itself, to build a new village with a total of 200 homes for the displaced villagers, and to build a bridge across the Dongyuxi River between Hanling and the west side of the old county seat.

These two attached conditions make the investment of the entire project exceed 60 million, which makes Xie Zhi, who has seen the development of the tourism industry in Yushan County, have great hesitation and need to conduct more detailed investigation and research on the tourism development of Yushan County.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xie Zhi, accompanied by Feng Yumei, went to several scenic spots and resource areas with the most development value and were clearly included in the investment promotion projects for the county government.

Xiao Haomin also made a special trip to temporarily withdraw from the flood control embankment and accompanied Xie Zhi and the entourage of SITC Group to have dinner and discuss the work of attracting investment.

It was almost eight o'clock when the rain outside suddenly became heavier, hitting the glass window like soybeans smashing densely, crackling.

After Xiao Haomin and Feng Yumei received a phone call, they hurriedly said goodbye and left, and Xie Zhi and his entourage stayed at the county government's guest house, and their car was in the courtyard in front of the guest house.

At first, I didn't feel anything when I listened to the heavy rain outside, Xie Zhi also studied the situation of the project with the entourage, and after nine o'clock, the rain became more and more urgent, and there was no intention to stop, and I heard the staff of the hotel shouting loudly in the courtyard in front of the building, and vaguely heard that it was the organization hand to lift the car in the yard to a high place. Xie Zhi walked to the balcony and found that the water in the courtyard of the county government's guest house had accumulated to a knee deep, and seven or eight hotel staff were pushing seven or eight cars, including them, to a high place.
