Chapter 1895: His Poison, My Honey

The price and consumption level of Xingang are relatively high compared with the mainland and Southeast Asian countries, that is, only relatively high-end mainland tourists and Southeast Asian tourists will choose to travel to Xingang, which will inevitably limit the source of tourists to Xingang Disneyland.

As far as the park itself is concerned, Newport Disney's operation has not been successful, in addition to the fact that the number of visitors has not met expectations, and it is also related to the joint venture method of Newport Disney. In order to win the Disney project, Newport gave too many concessions, undertook most of the investment, but only got only more than half of the equity, and the annual income had to pay an additional brand licensing fee to Disney, even if the park lost money.

The Xingang government undertook the main investment and provided a large number of preferential policies, but in fact it was not able to get much benefit from the park project, and the recovery of investment costs was far away, almost impossible, and they had neither the right to manage the park nor the investment income. In contrast, Disney only uses very little investment to control a project that is more than ten times the investment itself, even if the park cannot make a profit, by charging brand licensing fees, Disney Company is also making a lot of money, and can continue to strengthen and enhance its own brand value through the park, which can be described as a steady profit.

As for Newport's attempt to use Disneyland to promote the tourism development of Newport - Tourism is of course an important part of the economy of Xingang, but the reality of Xingang is less and more people also determines that Xingang's tourist reception capacity is limited, when a large number of mainland tourists pour into Xingang, it has led to a lot of contradictions, and even affected the relationship between Xingang and the mainland, on the one hand, it shows that Xingang's tourist reception capacity is limited, on the other hand, even if Xingang's reception capacity has reached saturation, Xingang Disney still has not gotten rid of the loss state, which may also show that Disney's significance to Xingang tourism is not so great.

In addition, Newport also hopes to revitalize the economy of Newport through the Disneyland project and reshape the status of Newport as a regional center, but this purpose is basically a bamboo basket for nothing, Disneyland is a big project, and its influence is not small, and it does have a driving effect on tourism, but it is far from driving the economy of Newport. The biggest foundation of the new port lies in the free port, the international financial center, and the shipping center, and Disney can play a very small role.

The development of Xingang and Xincheng can also explain a lot of problems, the successful Disneyland project Xingang's economic growth rate is significantly lower than that of Xincheng, Xingang's GDP from far ahead to be overtaken by Xincheng, even if the central government has given a lot of support, Xincheng's own development has reached a bottleneck later, Xingang can only be with Xincheng, unable to establish an advantage.

Compared with the new city to focus on the development of education hub port, strengthen the construction of shipping center, and vigorously develop petrochemical, electronic and other industries, the new port economy is considered to be hollowed out seriously, only relying on the financial services industry and shipping services barely supported, in the face of the rapid development and rise of the mainland city, the influence of the new port is declining, and it is constantly being overtaken, which is enough to show that Disneyland can not play a role in boosting the economy of the new port, and there are many deficiencies in the route of the new port trying to use tourism to drive regional economic development.

In Bao Feiyang's view, Xingang should certainly promote the development of shipping services and financial services, as well as tourism, but with the size of Xingang, Xingang should continue to maintain its influence in finance, shipping, and the region, and maintain a strong momentum of development. The financial center and regional center cannot support the size of Xingang, which must seek breakthroughs in the direction of innovation and new technologies, and the education hub port, advanced manufacturing industry, and new economy are all directions that can be chosen.

When Bao Feiyang went to Xingang a few years ago, he also talked to the relevant officials of Xingang about the development of the education hub port and the economic development of Xingang, which also played a certain role. Xingang rushed to the new city, put forward the education hub port plan, there are some adjustments in the specific policy, advanced manufacturing, by Fang Xia to participate in the control of the wafer production plant is also in full swing planning, Xingang government also issued a plan for the development of advanced electronics manufacturing industry, although there is no big move yet, but it is always a good start.

Bao Feiyang intervened in the competition of the Disney project through Tangsheng Culture, on the one hand, it was for the sake of Huixun District to fight for the project, and on the other hand, he did not want Xingang to pay too much for the Disneyland project and go on the wrong path. Disneyland has never achieved the desired effect of the Xingang government, whether it is the investment income of the park itself or the positive impact of the park on the economic and social development of Xingang. Without Disneyland, Newport would have invested more resources in its education hub and advanced technology industries to restructure its economy and avoid eclipsing the Pearl of the Orient.

Compared with Xingang, Pujiang City has a broader land resources, Xingang's land area is only 1,100 square kilometers, and mainly hills, while Pujiang City's land area has reached more than 6,000 square kilometers, far more than Xingang, and Pujiang City's land area is mostly flat, which can be developed with higher utilization.

Although it is often said that Pujiang's land is valuable, it is impossible to build factories, shopping malls and residences in Pujiang's more than 6,000 square kilometers of land, and it is also necessary to build parks and green belts, so a theme park of less than 10 square kilometers does not pose too much pressure on Pujiang. In Bao Feiyang's concept, with Disneyland as the core, the area of Huixun International Tourism Resort to be built will be larger.

In terms of tourists, the population of Pujiang alone has reached three times that of Xingang, and the surrounding cities of Pujiang City are home to hundreds of millions of people. For mainland tourists, whether it is in the capital of the north, or even the three northern provinces, or the central and western provinces, the southern provinces, it is very convenient to travel to Pujiang, the flight of Pujiang Airport and the train of the railway station can reach any municipality and provincial capital, as well as most of the economically developed cities, tourists to Pujiang, not only convenient, but also not expensive. This will be a real huge market with the potential of 1.3 billion people.

In fact, the operation of Pujiang Disneyland is indeed more successful than that of Xingang Park, and the number of visitors to Pujiang Disneyland exceeded that of Xingang in the first year of its completion, and exceeded 10 million, becoming the largest number of visitors in the first year of completion and opening of Disneyland, and it has also achieved profitability. Therefore, from the perspective of the park project itself, the conditions for the success of the Pujiang Disneyland project are much better than those of Xingang.

In terms of promoting regional economic development, Bao Feiyang does not believe that a Disneyland can make earth-shaking changes in Pujiang's economy, and Disneyland has not played such a big role. However, Disneyland can also help Pujiang City enrich Pujiang City's tourism projects and enhance the popularity and influence of tourism projects. As the largest city in mainland China and one of the most internationally recognizable cities, Pujiang will become the city with the highest number of tourists in China. It receives more than 300 million domestic and foreign tourists every year, of which the number of inbound tourists reaches more than 8 million, and the tourism revenue exceeds 400 billion. As a well-known theme park project, Disneyland can become a very important part of the tourism pattern of Dapujiang and further enhance the popularity and influence of Pujiang tourism. Its annual tourist arrivals of 20 to 30 million are also an important part of Pujiang's tourism industry.

However, tourism is only a part of many industries in Pujiang City, Pujiang City will indeed vigorously promote the development of tourism, but Pujiang City has made great efforts in the development of advanced manufacturing, electronic information industry, shipping industry and many other industries, and the Disneyland project will not affect the overall development planning and industrial pattern of Pujiang City.

Of course, the introduction of the Disney project is still very important for Huixun District to improve the planning of international tourism resorts. Huixun District is close to Chundong New District, and the development of Chundong New District is rapidly changing, with the completion of factories and the rise of high-rise buildings, which has also made it more and more crowded and land more and more scarce. Pujiang City put forward the slogan of making life better in the city in its bid to host the World Expo, and in addition to the reinforced concrete, the Chundong New District also needs a place to relax and relax.

On the one hand, the vast land of Huixun District should be proposed as a land reserve for the industrial development of Dachundong, and the coastal areas along the Tianjiang River and the Tianjiang Mouth, as well as Dongsha and Hengsha will be used as the industrial base for the development of heavy chemical industry and advanced manufacturing industry in Dachundong. On the other hand, Huixun District also has rich tourism resources and garden resources, such as Huixun District's ancient water towns, private gardens, agricultural heritage sites, as well as Huixun District's widely distributed aquaculture and peach forests. A very important addition to the Chundong New Area of the financial center can make it easy for those who work in the Chundong New Area to find a place to relax on the weekend, and can also avoid the urban diseases caused by the development of the city, relieve the work and life pressure of urban residents, and also optimize the regional transportation and municipal facilities......
