Chapter 35 Cultural Square
In the early March of the spring rain, Gu Bei has been busy with the "Jiang Dada" comics, and in his free time he will go to the Nishizawa Academy of Fine Arts to accompany Xia Nuo, and occasionally go to school to attend classes, and his life is also stable and peaceful, and the most reasonable and unexpected thing for him is that Liao Jianxin acquired the Xinlin Textile Factory in Yulin District.
This matter was told by Liao Jianxin on the phone to Gu Bei.
At that time, Gu Bei was a little surprised, and immediately thought about the reason why Liao Jianxin was impatient to promote the cultural column project of Bayi Road in Yulin District, compared with other high-speed urban areas in Qingchuan, the development of Yulin District was relatively lagging behind, and most of the state-owned enterprises with low production efficiency were concentrated here, and the housing prices were relatively lowγ
Liao Jianxin said on the phone: "Brother, if you want to be okay now, come over, I have something to talk to you about." β
Gu Bei smiled: "You made a windfall, won't you be looking for me to share the spoils?"
Liao Jianxin said: "Ouch, brother, you don't know my suffering, come and talk about it in detail." β
Gu Bei hung up the phone and called Zhao Tuo, who drove him to Xinlin Textile Factory.
Liao Jianxin was already waiting for him at the gate of Xinlin Textile Factory, and he couldn't see how happy he was when he took Xinlin Textile Factory, Gu Bei walked over and caught the Yellow Crane Tower that Liao Jianxin threw over: "Brother Liao, your sentiments are really noble, and the mouths of hundreds of workers in Xinlin Textile Factory will depend on you in the future." β
Liao Jianxin heard the teasing in Gu Bei's words, touched his bare head and said: " I want to contribute, but this Xinlin textile factory, has been back to the sky, serious pollution, serious aging equipment, low production efficiency, arrears of workers for more than half a year's wages, workers every day chickens and eggs, plus the municipal government to carry out civilized construction projects here, such a polluting factory here must not be good, the city government wants to stop, but the factory stopped the workers what to do, just I met Secretary Deng of Yulin District, he found me, I think this is a business opportunity, of course there is no reason to refuseγ β
Gu Bei laughed, Liao Jianxin's statement was not wrong.
In those days, many state-owned enterprises that could not continue to operate would be sold to private individuals, and the high-sounding point was to attract investment, which was actually to privatize state-owned property and give a large number of preferential policies, and this process inevitably caused a large loss of national wealth, but there was no way, the state-owned enterprises that could not continue to operate could still make some money if they were sold, and if they did not sell them, they would be smashed into their own hands, and so many workers needed money to settle and buy out their seniority, and they could only make up for it by selling state-owned assets.
In the 90s, there were many examples like Xinlin Textile Factory, with a backward investment system, serious bureaucracy, no respect for science, blind decision-making to death, and finally taken over by the capitalists. It is true that although the reform of the investment system that has been shouted for decades has been much more advanced than that year, state-owned capital as the main body of investment, the investment system will always be difficult to reform, no one cares about investment efficiency, and no one takes responsibility for investment failure, so the reform and opening up to this day, and even in 2017 in later generations, we have never reached the goal of reform, in essence, state-owned enterprises are no different from the eve of reform.
The reason for this is that the real shareholders of state-owned capital are the people and the taxpayers, and there is no principal-agent relationship between the people and the government or the officials in charge of investment, and the government and officials do not have the awareness and responsibility to invest for the people.
Thinking about the major commercial fields in China in later generations, state-owned enterprises no longer directly control enterprises, and through resource and policy advantages for capital monopoly, almost all walks of life can see the giant-like posture of state-owned enterprises, especially in the field of real estate, the investment behavior with urban construction as the core has become another form of state-owned capital in recent years, deducing another version of "the country advances and the people retreat", and at the same time, it also paves a wealth road with the most convenient and highest rate of return for capitalists to leverage national property.
From the mid-to-late 90s, the nationwide real estate development and urbanization spread to the whole country, and the huge business opportunities allowed the capitalists to discover huge opportunities for land grading, and they controlled the declining state-owned enterprises through various restructuring, mergers and acquisitions and even contract management, but the vast majority of capitalists were not determined to run state-owned enterprises well, and carried out land development, like bloodsucking worms into the heart of the country to extract huge wealth.
Obviously, Liao Jianxin is one of them.
The purpose of Liao Jianxin's acquisition of Xinlin Textile Factory is the commercialization of land, Gu Bei has to admit that Liao Jianxin's business sense is keen enough, obviously before promoting the cultural column project, Liao Jianxin has set his sights on Xinlin Textile Factory, and it makes him feel that Liao Jianxin's strength is that the current way of state-owned land transfer is mainly allocation and leasing, and the guys who can carry out commercial real estate operations are all deeply rooted, in addition, taking this piece of land of about 60 acres will definitely not be able to run for 30 or 40 million.
Gu Bei quickly sorted out the doorway here, and he couldn't help but think about how he could maximize his benefits in this gluttonous feast.
With this problem, Gu Bei visited Xinlin Textile Factory accompanied by Liao Jianxin, Zhao Tuo followed behind with a cigarette and looked left and right, Xinlin Textile Factory has been out of production for a while, there is no one on the road, there are potholes and stinky ditches everywhere, wild cats and stray dogs come out from time to time, and the weeds in front of the old factory are overgrown, especially barren, which is embarrassing.
Along the way, Liao Jianxin introduced the situation of Xinlin Textile Factory to Gu Bei from time to time, but did not say the purpose of looking for Gu Bei, Gu Bei actually had a certain understanding of Xinlin Textile Factory in his previous life, and asked Liao Jianxin what was the matter with him coming over.
Liao Jianxin didn't hide it, lit a cigarette and said: "Brother, I originally planned to build a high-end residential area, but I paid a lot of price to win this factory, you should guess it, the workers of this year are not easy to fool, in order to settle them, I have made a lot of money, resulting in cash flow problems, there is no way to build a house, but it is a waste of time to set up here, I am in a dilemma, brother, you have eyesight, do you want to give me an idea?"
Gu Bei thought for a while, speaking of which he was quite familiar with this area, in his impression, in the previous life, when he was a freshman, Yulin District was still in a state of waiting for a hundred industries, but since the sophomore year, Yulin District has carried out a drastic policy of renovating the old city, relocated the state-owned enterprises with serious pollution and low production efficiency as a whole, and built a large number of buildings, pedestrian streets, high-end commercial centers, and residential areas have sprung up, and have quickly risen to become one of the prosperous areas of Qingchuan. Now it seems that the rise of Yulin District was inseparable from the municipal government's series of civilization construction projects here.
Gu Bei raised his eyes and looked at the gate of the old factory, there was a row of low bungalows directly opposite the gate, and there were a few small restaurants with light business, so he said: "I think it, we can build a food culture square from the street along the street of the old factory, the geographical location here does not need me to say more, the city civilization construction project has been launched, and the university town is not far from here, which is the most ideal location for catering in Yulin District." β
"You have a good idea!"
Gu Bei's proposal made Liao Jianxin's eyes shine, he paid a lot of price in order to win the Xinlin Textile Factory, and he did not have the financial resources to engage in commercial real estate development, but the food culture square did not need to be demolished and rebuilt, and the old factory could be renovated, and the funds could be quickly withdrawn through the form of leasing.
Liao Jianxin touched the shiny bald scoop: "Brother, you go on." β
Gu Bei stretched out his hand and said: "You see, this piece of factory area is planned to be a food, culture and leisure square, which can accommodate at least thirty restaurants of different styles, and the restaurants operating here are not only limited to regular customers, but also to become the first choice for dining in Qingchuan City, which involves the brand operation of the entire food, culture and leisure square and the unified renovation of the external environment......
Speaking of this, Gu Bei turned his head to look at Liao Jianxin: "I look at it this way, I will help you do the brand planning and operation of the food culture square, I opened an advertising company Yuexiu, you also know, the strength is very strong, the company is all big names in the advertising industry, and now there is no shortage of business." β
Liao Jianxin rolled his eyes: "I think you have the idea of bidding for the cultural column, right?"
Gu Bei smiled, bidding for the cultural column is not his business alone, isn't Liao Jianxin also waiting for the bidding to successfully win the construction project of the cultural column? Besides, how can he come up with such a golden idea, if he doesn't recover some interest?
If the creative design scheme of the Xinlin Textile Factory to transform the food culture square project can be attributed to Yuexiu Company and win the favor of government leaders, it will definitely be able to greatly improve the success rate of bidding for the Bayi Road Cultural Column project.
