Chapter 1119: Central Building
Han Xuan often overlaps the current cities in South Korea, Huaxia and other countries with the scenes in his previous life, so he feels unsightly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's normal to have this kind of mentality, flipping through the old photos of these cities in the 90s, you will know why it is difficult for him to fall in love with them now, and it is really not easy to accept this scene from the perspective of 20 years later.
For a country, the more prosperous the "face city", the more powerful the country is.
In Seoul, for example, before the 80s, there was not even a decent hotel in the whole of Seoul.
So much so that Lee Kun-hee's father, Mr. Lee Byung-cheol, couldn't stand it anymore, and in 1979, he acquired the then state-owned State Guest House and established the five-star Shilla Hotel where Han Xuan is now located.
Last year, the per capita GDP of the United States exceeded $30,000 for the first time, while that of South Korea was $12,000, and that of China was just over $6,400, and that was the renminbi, which was about $800 when converted into dollars.
However, from 1994 to 1997, China's economic growth rate was 11.8%, 9.8%, and 8.8% respectively, which was amazingly fast.
It will not be until 2014 that GDP per capita will exceed $10,000 for the first time, two decades later than South Korea, without taking into account demographic factors.
Today, South Korea is known as one of the Asian Tigers, and ten years ago, in 1986, the country's per capita GDP was less than $3,000.
If economic factors are taken into account, then it seems that the current unfriendly attitude of South Koreans towards the Chinese can be found.
Historically, when China was strong, the countries of the Korean Peninsula had always been vassals, and now the serfs have turned over and want to find confidence and show off from their old clubs.
It wasn't until 20 years later that many Koreans' impression of Huaxia changed, and they even played titles like "Super Huaxia" to produce programs that analyzed Huaxia positively and objectively, and marveled at its changes.
At present, the vast majority of Koreans' perception of China is even stuck in the turbulent period of 20 or 30 years ago, when people often starved to death.
So, at this moment, a reporter wondered about the interview with Han Xuan and said: "Some time ago, it was reported that you will invest three billion US dollars in Huaxia within ten years.
As far as I know, your family has invested a lot of money in Huaxia over the years, such as the building under construction in Shanghai, which is expected to be more than 600 meters high.
Why don't you invest all this money in South Korea?"
The tone seems a little unpleasant.
Probably because Huaxia was favored by Han Xuan, and his own country was not favored by Han Xuan and was annoyed.
When it comes to the patriotic sentiment of the people, even the Chinese have to sigh when compared with the Koreans.
The patriotic sentiment of the Chinese people comes more from the pride of a great country and their unwillingness to let the once glorious history decline.
Koreans are more like a kind of fragile national self-esteem that has been generated by low self-esteem for a long time, with a slightly arrogant personality and a careful eye, just look at Korean history books.
In fact, Linguo Erfat is the same as them, the same cultural background produces a similar national character, and the name of "the first generalissimo in the universe" is not called in vain.
Don't let others say that they or their country are bad, and if they say something bad, they will immediately come out and refute it.
Han Xuan knew that if he dared to say anything inappropriate, someone would definitely march against him tomorrow, so he replied vaguely:
"Because the labor cost in Huaxia is lower, and the low cost can expand the interests of our company, the labor cost of manufacturing a product in Korea is several times higher than that in Huaxia.
Recently, China has opened up, and there are investment opportunities everywhere, and most of the industries in South Korea have been involved, and the competitive pressure is relatively large.
As for the building, I have an agreement with the Huaxia government, and the cost of building the building is almost completely exempted in terms of taxes, and the land is divided for me free of charge, and the conditions given are very generous.
Considering the large number of people with the ratio of commercial space, the prospects for high-end commercial office land are promising......"
I put up an advertisement for Huaxia in a small way, and I believe that people with a heart can get some inspiration from it and bring investment to Huaxia.
The reason why Han Xuan bought a large piece of land in Lujiazui was not only to invest and wait for the appreciation of the land, but also to build a commercial building complex relying on skyscrapers and invest in the real estate industry.
From the beginning of the sale of the land, the Shanghai municipal government has been sending people to negotiate with him about the development plan, and judging from the extremely favorable conditions offered, the local government really wants its city to have an international skyscraper to show to the residents of other countries around the world.
The Jin Mao Tower, which was about to be built, should have played this role, but unfortunately the four towers of Snow Mountain and the Stark Building have been built one after another, plus the spiral building under construction in New York, the limelight of the Jin Mao Tower has been overshadowed all of a sudden.
Baodao also joined in the excitement and wanted to build the 101 building in Taipei, which is expected to break ground at the beginning of next year, which made Jin Mao a tragedy.
It's too late to increase the height, unless the antenna is erected for hundreds of meters, otherwise it will be crushed in height.
This is all for nothing, all the way to the green light, just ask Han Xuan, who has a special habit of skyscrapers, to build a building in Lujiazui, with only one requirement: high! Preferably the highest in the world!
However, Han Xuan once imagined that the Shanghai Central Building was his own, and its shape had been lingering in his mind, so in order to meet the wishes of his previous life, he moved it to Lujiazui again, and also adopted the previous shape.
The height is still more than 600 meters, and if they don't agree to increase the height, the local government is quite satisfied, they haven't thought about such a tall building before.
The World Financial Center Building, which is currently under construction by Japan Mori Building Co., Ltd., is only 500 meters away.
The reporter who asked that question was dumbfounded, and the labor cost in South Korea is so high that many domestic companies are running out, especially in labor-intensive industries.
On such controversial issues, only this reporter asked, and the others kindly asked why they came to South Korea, how long they planned to stay, and so on.
Han Xuan had no intention of answering questions, but he was caught by them, so he couldn't just run away without politeness, answering some painless questions one after another.
Upstairs, Lee Kun-hee heard from the hotel manager just now that he was here and hadn't seen Han Xuan for a long time, so he asked his son, the "prince" of Samsung Group, Lee Jae-yong, to come over and have a look.
Seeing that Han Xuan was surrounded by reporters, he knew what was going on, and said, "Next time I have another interview, I'll take him to something first."
He should be tired after sitting on the plane for so long, and when he wants to be interviewed, you should already have something to write, don't be rude and disturb the guests. ”
After saying this, the reporters immediately opened their mouths to express their gratitude to Han Xuan, and then walked out.
Their companies are all held by the big chaebols, which means that those who are waiting for Han Xuan are their bosses.
The Li family has spoken, how can they have the courage not to give face and continue to ask...... (To be continued.) )
