Chapter 41: Advance to the Middle
The "Next Stop Star" decided the overall champion during the summer vacation, Xiao Jianing won the crown with her unrivaled popularity, and was known as the first jade female successor in Chinese mainland, and four handsome guys in their early 20s were also signed by Jiangnan Film and Television because they had a large number of supporters, and they were called the "Four Little Heavenly Kings" in the mainland. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At the time of the show finals, Song Pengcheng, the general manager of Jiangnan Film and Television, announced that these five winners would star in the film version of "Meteor Garden", creating a new generation of youth idols in Chinese mainland. As soon as the news came out, a large number of young fans rushed to tell each other, and they had great expectations for this movie.
Because of the industry players from Hong Kong, in addition to filming, Xiao Jianing and the other four handsome guys will also receive short-term training, enter the music industry, release records and even take on TV series, etc., and become star idols with all-round development.
When signing a contract with Jiangnan Film and Television, Xiao Jianing put forward the requirements of not kissing scenes, not filming bed scenes and having the right to veto the script, which is equivalent to starting to play big names before becoming popular, Song Pengcheng agreed one by one, after all, there is Qin Ran, the boss of the company, standing behind her.
Wang Yaxuan returned to the campus after a long absence, and she chose to major in business administration and entered a new class. Because of Qin Ran as the target to catch up, she was much less interested in the school's student activities, no longer served as a student cadre, and became an ordinary sophomore. In addition to studying, she spent the rest of her time applying what she had learned, because by this time she had become an ordinary intern at the Tianjing branch of Yinguang Group.
The design of the Tianjing Twin Towers began a global tender, and Jiangnan Group invited more than a dozen design teams from all over the world, from which six top companies were selected for the final competition. Among them, SOM from the United States, who was the designer of the Jin Mao Tower, the tallest building in eastern Shanghai, found Pei Jianzhong as a middleman to recommend it, indicating that they came to China to find the next landmark building. In addition, there are also famous giants from Germany, HPP design studio, and the rigorous Germans also hope to open up a new battlefield in the hot land of the East.
The design standard for the main tower of the Tianjing Twin Towers was finally decided to be 468 meters and 99 floors, which is expected to be the tallest building in Chinese mainland after completion. The annex building is 328 meters high and has 69 floors, and will be constructed after the main building is completed. In this way, it is possible to take advantage of the landmark advantage of the main building that has already been built, and sell it at a higher price.
Originally, Qin Ran's plan was to build Jiangnan Plaza first and then start construction of Gemini, but the Tianjing Municipal Government couldn't wait to see the completion of the tallest building, and asked Jiangnan Group to start construction first.
As a landmark in Tianjing, and even in China, Jiangnan Group found that it had limited say in it, especially in terms of design and styling, and had to listen to the government's opinions. After all, this is a behemoth that ordinary people can see when they look up, and it is impossible for the government not to intervene.
Under the leadership of the Tianjing Municipal Government, 15 famous architectural masters from the world and China were invited to form the review committee, including Master I.M. Pei, who Qin Ran was familiar with. At the judging meeting, the design proposals of SOM from the United States and HPP from Germany were selected with high votes, with SOM's design being futuristic and HHP being antique Chinese style.
As soon as the two major plans were announced, Tianjing City solicited the opinions of the general public to see which one supported the largest number of people. Of course, it is the government officials who make the final decision, and Jiangnan Group is completely a bystander in this role.
To be honest, the construction of a super high-rise skyscraper with a height of 468 meters, Jiangnan Group is facing almost a blank experience, which is a big test for Qin Ran. As soon as the design plan is finalized, he goes to find the best team to subcontract the elevator, steel structure, general contractor, curtain wall, etc. With the integration of the global economy, professional things are handed over to professional companies, and Qin Ran plans to select suitable partners around the world to build this tallest building in China.
Being able to participate in the construction of the tallest building can take the opportunity to learn from the world's top industry experts about the experience of super high-rise construction, which is very meaningful to Jiangnan Group, which is still in the growth period. To build the tallest building in China, it means that the strength of the entire company has withstood the most demanding test, Jiangnan Group will be famous in the industry, at least no real estate company in China can do it. Whether it is Wanjian, which was professionalized early, or Zhongyang, which is a benchmark of Hong Kong, has no experience of setting foot in super high-rise skyscrapers, and if Jiangnan Group completes it, it will be a well-deserved king of real estate.
After a referendum and discussions among officials, the "China Zun" proposal of HPP from Germany finally became the final winner. The designer drew inspiration from the shape characteristics of the traditional Chinese ritual vessel "bottle", and after abstract processing and proportion optimization, it formed the elegant and beautiful unique shape of "China Zun".
At the foot of the Son of Heaven, next to the roots of the imperial city, the "China Zun" plan with Chinese cultural charm is naturally more popular with the Chinese people, and Qin Ran is actually inclined to this plan in his heart.
However, the plan of the American som firm is also very good, Qin Ran wants to communicate with the other party, let them transplant it to the second tallest building in Hudong City, the modern Hudong City is more suitable for this avant-garde skyscraper image with a sense of advanced modernity.
In this way, it kills two birds with one stone, and produces a win-win effect. When they heard that the unsuccessful plan was invited to Hudong City, the representative of SOM Office in the United States was very happy and immediately flew to Hudong to inspect and prepare to revise the unsuccessful plan.
Xiao Yaming, the new governor of Hubei Province, was transferred from the position of deputy secretary of Hudong City, from the deputy post of the economically developed area to the relatively backward area to serve as the top leader of the government. Jiangnan Group was also invited, and Zhou Zhidong attended the meeting.
As the capital city of northern Hubei Province, Jianghan City is like a large county town with chaotic urban planning, and the whole city presents an old and dilapidated scene, without the slightest appearance of a modern city. The previous city leaders planned to develop a new urban area on the wasteland on the other side of the Han River, forming a two-city center situation where the two sides of the river fly side by side.
Unfortunately, it was well planned, but due to limited financial resources, it has not been able to really develop the river beach on the other side, but a lot of land has been sold. The developers of the local city of Jianghan said very well when they acquired the land that they would cooperate with the city government's development process, but now it looks like the land is still barren and overgrown with reeds. Their reason is also very simple: the roads, water, electricity, bridges and other infrastructure promised by the Jianghan municipal government at that time have not kept up, so they cannot afford to start construction. If the government threatens to repossess the land, then they will come up with the contract and say that the original written supporting facilities have not kept up, and the government has breached the contract first, and there is no valid reason to repossess the land.
In fact, their real purpose is to wait for the first person to eat the crab to get their mouth, and if they eat well, then they will also rush to the top. If they die, then they will continue to stand still, waiting for the next fool to come out, and they can continue to hoard land and wait for appreciation. To this end, the Jianghan Municipal Government has promised that the land transfer fee of the first enterprise to start construction will be discounted by 7%, the second by 8%, and the third by 9%, but no one responds.
Because the Jiangtan New Area is now only the center on the drawings, it is barren everywhere, and even if it is developed, it will not make money.
There is no money in the pocket, and the waist is not hard, this sentence is not only applicable to people, but also to the government. Although the developers have small abacus, the government cannot hold them back and force them to start construction, and the only way is to find a leading big brother. Last year, the Jianghan Municipal Government made a big decision to move all major departments of the municipal government to the Jiangtan New District, so now there are a few uncapped buildings erected on the vacant land on the other side of the river, which is the future city government building.
Jiangnan Group has been booming in the country in the past two years, and the Jianghan Municipal Government thought of taking the role of this leading brother and being the first to enter the Jiangtan New Area to develop real estate projects.
Although a lot of land was sold, Jianghan City knew that the land near the site of the new city government building would definitely appreciate in value in the future, so it deliberately kept it. Now the Jianghan Municipal Government has taken out this land to attract investment and attract powerful large real estate developers in China to settle in, and Jiangnan Group is the suitable target they have selected.
Jiangnan Square created by Jiangnan Group in Jiangzhou City has become a beautiful business card, seeing the dazzling array of goods in the mall and the endless flow of people, Jianghan city government officials who went to inspect it hope to move it to Jianghan. And another reason that attracted them was the iconic twin towers landmark "China Zun", which was about to start construction in Tianjing, and they all hoped to create a new urban landmark in Jianghan City.
Jianghan City had long been in Qin Ran's strategic fulcrum city plan, but he had never expected to enter it so early. This time, the Jianghan municipal government is very enthusiastic, as long as the Jiangnan Group comes in, the land cost will be returned in various subsidies, of course, the proviso is that at least one Jiangnan square will be built. As for the landmark, the Jianghan Municipal Government is looking forward to it, but Qin Ran has concerns, after all, it is difficult for skyscrapers to return to their original costs and they also occupy a lot of money.
For example, the Jin Mao Building in Hudong City is the tallest building in Hudong and even the country after its completion, but the overall property is rented out in terms of operation, and the annual income is only enough to pay back the interest, and the return cycle is too long.
For Qin Ran's high-turnover capital flow, such a model will not be adopted. Tianjing's "China Zun" project, originally he planned to build Jiangnan Square first, relying on the funds of Jiangnan Square to leverage the "China Zun", so that the financial pressure of the entire group is not large. However, now that Tianjing City wants to engage in "China Zun" first, it must make a breakthrough in the return of funds. In addition to the commercial facilities reserved on the ground floor and the five-star hotel location reserved on the top floor, the office buildings on the other floors can be sold to get back the funds. Once the "China Zun" enters the ground construction, it will begin to sell office buildings to the public, which is equivalent to the "sale of off-plan properties" often said in Hong Kong, otherwise a huge amount of money alone will drag down the pace of Jiangnan Group's expansion.
At present, the average price of new houses in Jianghan City is 2,400 yuan / square meter, and it is true that there is not much money to be made from developing real estate, but the location they gave is really Qin Ran who can't refuse. The most critical place in real estate is the location, and a well-located building is hard currency. Since Jianghan City has moved all the municipal government buildings, the Jiangtan New Area will definitely have a promising future in the future.
Another point is that the Jianghan Municipal Government is relatively depressed now, if the Jiangnan Group enters the leading brother at this time, the relationship with the government will be very helpful in the future. After all, Jianghan City is a strategic fulcrum city in Qin Ran's mind.
Then let's go, Qin Ran decided to invest at the invitation of the Jianghan Municipal Government to build a large residential community in Jiangtan New District, and at the same time build a Jiangnan Square to become the economic center of the new area. As for the landmark building, Jiangnan Group and the Jianghan Municipal Government have a tacit agreement to put it on hold first, keep the land, and then put it on the agenda when the time is ripe.
"With a big wave of 4 billion, it is not a dragon but the river, the 'Oriental Dragon' Jiangnan Group has entered the Jianghan real estate market in a big way, and fired the first shot to seize the Jiangtan New Area! New projects, new thinking, new atmosphere, under the great care of the provincial leaders......"
On the day of the signing, the mainstream media of Jianghan City carried out all-round reports on this major investment project, announcing the start of Jiangnan Group's strategy of advancing into the central region.
The new government building in Jianghan City is about to be completed, and all government agencies and units will soon move in. Jiangnan Group decided to start the construction of the residential community project first, first, to achieve quick results, second, to take the opportunity to grab a wave of customers in the government compound, and third, to reserve funds for the Jiangnan Plaza project.
With land and money, what is still missing is people.
If you want to go to an unfamiliar place to expand your territory, this expatriate general is very important.
Qin Ran thought of a suitable candidate, Xiong Xindong, who graduated from Jianghan University and stayed in this city for four years, so he must have more ideas to implement the company's expectations.
Xiong Xindong did a very good job in southern Jiangsu Province, and some time ago he got a large amount of cabbage price land in Suwu City, and made great achievements. Qin Ran asked him if he was interested, and he nodded in agreement without saying a word. What you want is such an attitude, Qin Ran is proud of his original trainee program, these trainees who are known as radishes are the powerful branches of the big tree of Jiangnan Group, and they constitute the support of the group company.
Qin Ran allowed him to pick people from within the group to go to Jianghan to open up the market, and Xiong Xindong selected 8 people as the backbone to go with him. The young man didn't worry much, so he packed his bags and set out on the journey with an order. Now that the company is expanding fast enough, when it comes to a new place, the head office often sends people to form a backbone, and then starts to recruit local people to form a combat effectiveness as soon as possible. Of course, recruitment still has to pass the review of the personnel department, but the local branch has the right to recommend.
Xiong Xindong left, and Sunan Province was handed over to Guo Zirui to lead, and he continued to work hard in the local area to maintain the expansion trend of Jiangnan Group. (To be continued.) )
