Chapter 1016: Negotiations are Tough
Chen Ran said: "The government requires that the clothing market cannot exceed seven floors, and the 1,500-meter-long and 80-meter-wide pedestrian street cannot exceed two floors. The area occupied by the house must not exceed 33% of the total area, and that's basically it. Boss, what if you are in charge of this on behalf of the city government? β
Wuyang said: "If I were in charge of this matter on behalf of the government, I would definitely not sell the land at such a high price, at most 10,000 yuan per square meter." With this money, the government only takes care of the government's affairs, such as engaging in municipal construction, helping developers to carry out demolition, and so on. As for how the developer talks to the residents of the shantytown and how to build pedestrian streets and markets, I will not interfere in principle. β
Chen Ran said: "If you are a developer, how do you talk to the residents? β
"Residents just want housing, they want facades, then I will definitely meet their requirements, so that they have nothing to say."
"There are only so many facades, and there is no place to build housing, how can you satisfy them?"
"Facades and houses can be developed into space without increasing the floor space. I built a three-storey faΓ§ade on the pedestrian street, another 25 floors of housing on top, four floors underground, two floors for a clothing market, and two floors for parking lots. The entire car park is interconnected, and vehicles can be accessed from both ends of the pedestrian street. Build 10 floors on the front of the market, and build another 40 or 50 floors on top; 4 floors are built underground as parking lots, two floors are used as parking lots, and two floors are used as clothing markets; The above can open a store for merchants, can live at home, can be used as a warehouse, can also be used as an office building, you say. Can you meet everyone's requirements? β
"Of course you can. But, boss, build it like this. How big a market will it be? β
Wuyang said: "The city government has allocated such a large piece of land in the center of the city to build a big market, why do I do it according to their wishes, you are too big?" β
Chen Ran smiled and said, "It's not that I'm too big, so how much do I have to invest?" Where to find such a big investor? β
Wuyang said: "Of course, such a thing is handed over to me. We can roughly do the math. If the pedestrian street and the clothing market are hollowed out, a two-story parking lot and a two-story market will be built. Then the underground parking lot area is 640,000 square meters, and the market area is also so much. The pedestrian street on the ground is 20 meters wide, 30 meters wide on each side, and the faΓ§ade has 270,000 square meters. 25 floors are built upstairs. That's 2.25 million square meters. The market has 10 floors, 667,000 square meters at 33%, and 26.67 million square meters at 40 floors. The total construction area is 31.137 million square meters, and the cost per square meter is about 3,000 yuan, which is 93.411 billion yuan, according to the current price of steel, cement and labor. With the addition of 2.533 billion yuan for land purchase, the total cost is 96 billion yuan. β
"Boss. Can you calculate it by heart? β
"Of course, when we were in school, we learned mental arithmetic."
"Then calculate how much you can sell."
"I don't know the housing prices in Tanzhou."
Chen Ran said, "I'll tell you." The price of parking spaces in the parking lot is about 30,000 yuan, and the price of the faΓ§ade is between 20,000 and 30,000 yuan per square meter, which can be calculated at an average of 25,000 yuan, and the housing can only be 6,000 yuan per square meter. β
"Then I'll tell you, the parking lot can be sold for 5 billion yuan, the market is 1.577 million square meters, which can be sold for 39.425 billion, and the housing is 28.92 million square meters, which can be sold for 173.52 billion, adding up to 218.065 billion, minus investment and financial costs, there should be a profit of 120 billion."
Chen Ran asked, "Boss, what is financial expenses?" β
"It's the interest on the loan."
"Do you still want a loan?"
"Loans or not loans, you always have to calculate these."
Chen Ran smiled: "I know, I have to pay less income tax." β
Wuyang said: "After a long time, it is still a flower in the moon mirror in the water." β
"Boss, can you come forward to discuss with the city government?"
"Don't tell outsiders that I'm rich. As for this, I can use my power to arrange for the city government to do it, but when people don't understand this matter, I can't come forward, and everyone will think that I have made a lot of benefits in it. β
Chen Ran said: "Boss, my cousin Zhuo Yalan will definitely be able to come forward, I'll go talk to her, what do you think?" β
Wuyang said: "What kind of relationship are you with Governor Zhuo?" β
"Her father is my uncle. My uncle was very good at reading since he was a child, and later he was admitted to the university, and after graduation, he stayed in Tanzhou to work. My mother and a few sisters stayed in the countryside, and in the past, our uncles and aunts, my cousins, and my cousins were very concerned about us. When I was a child, the clothes I wore were all given by my uncle's family. β
"What do your cousin-in-law and cousin do?"
"My cousin-in-law is the director of the Tanzhou Urban and Rural Housing Construction Committee, and my cousin used to be in the army, and he retired as the chief of staff of the division, and now he helps others manage the home appliance market. Bosses, they are very capable, but they are not as approachable as you. β
Wuyang smiled: "Approachable people are sometimes said to be smiling tigers, I don't want to leave you with such an impression." β
Chen Ran said: "How can it? As soon as you see me, let me be your driver, the first conversation, you promised to lend me money, and said that it doesn't matter if you don't pay it back, this is clearly a good leader who cares about people, but the smiling tiger is a person who says good things to his face and does bad things behind his back. β
"It seems that you are a sensible person, we will spend more time together in the future, my affairs, try not to tell others, and do not accept gifts from others. These are small favors, worthless, and boring. You can tell your cousin and cousin about building a clothing market, but it's better not to say that it's an investment that I brought in, do you understand why? β
Chen Ran said: "I know, if it is the investment you brought in, it will be inconvenient when you need to speak in the future." β
Wuyang smiled: "You are really an understanding person." Chen Ran, I think so, we will inspect the urban area with people from the city government tomorrow, and this matter will definitely not be missed. At that time, the city government made a unified plan. At the meeting, I listed it as the first phase of the project, so that we can attract investment in a grand manner. β
"Boss, before that. I'll talk to my cousin and cousin, and ask them to find acquaintances and come forward to support your opinion. β
Wuyang smiled: "Chen Ran, I think you are very smart, and you will not be worse than Xu Zhengliang in the future." I'll lend you some money first and see if I can get some stores in the current clothing market. After the new market is built, this old market will definitely be demolished. When the time comes, you can use the area for the area, and you will definitely have to earn. Of course, you also have a share in the new market. When the time comes, you will give you what you like and how much you want. β
"Boss, you can rest assured. I won't ask for it in vain. Later made money. Or if you collect the rent, I will pay it back to you one after another, so that you can live with peace of mind. Cousin, cousin, I know how to say, let them all work according to your intentions. β
"We'll start tomorrow. After the two sessions in the province, according to the situation of the provincial capital, the next construction plan will be studied and formulated. β
Chen Ran said: "Tanzhou is an old city, and the urban construction over the years has lagged far behind the Lujiang River and the Yihe River. β
Wuyang said: "I haven't looked carefully in Tanzhou. Not informed, no voice. But I'm sure you're right. If the central government gives me a few years. I'm sure I'm going to make her as beautiful as the Lujiang River. β
Chen Ran said: "In the past few years, under the leadership of Secretary Hong, Governor Zhou and Governor Zhu have done a lot in Tanzhou, widening several main roads, building ring roads, building five bridges, the roads in and out of the city are basically unblocked, and the cross-river tunnel and urban light rail are also under construction. But if compared with such a straight and spacious road, clean and beautiful streets, and garden-like environment as Lujiang, Tanzhou is simply an old woman in her old age, full of ringworm, congestion everywhere, and gray, which makes people depressed. β
"Chen Ran, don't talk about this. Tanzhou is an old city, and the old city has the stubborn diseases of the old city, but it also has its cultural accumulation, and it is naturally difficult to transform it into a new city and retain her culture. β
Chen Ran said: "Didn't the city government decide to preserve Tianxin Pavilion and Dingwangtai as the ruins of a famous cultural city, so why not renovate other places?" β
"We can think about this kind of thing, and we should do it more, but we can't say it. If you say it, people will think that you are trying to erase the merits of others, and if you elevate yourself, you may have a negative impact, not support my work, and may come to me every day to find fault. But if you want to do something, you can't find fault with it. For example, widening the city road will definitely affect the travel of citizens and affect the cleanliness, sometimes because of the weather, the progress is a little slower, and people have something to say. β
Chen Ran said: "Yes, toads don't bite people. Boss, I'm just talking to you, and I'm not going to talk to others. Whatever I say in the future, people may guess your point of view. β
"Yes, you know that. Turn right, go to my home first, and then pick me up and know the way. After that, I set off at about 7:10 every day, you just go to the gate of the pingli and wait, the place where I live is not open to traffic. β
When he arrived at the door of Shuanglong Villa, Wuyang thought about it and asked Chen Ran to drive back, and he didn't know how long he would be delayed when he went to the Heyuan Hotel, so it was better to drive by himself.
When I arrived at the large conference room of the Heyuan Hotel, there were 47 people brought by Mr. Witt, as well as hundreds of people from his own company, in a group of three, a group of five, talking in various languages. When they saw Wuyang coming in, they immediately quieted down and looked at him.
In English, Wu Yang said, "Gentlemen, please continue. β
Some of them beckoned, some didn't say anything, and continued their conversation. Wuyang came to Pei Xuewen, Bian Jingwei, and Shu Linlin, a group of people, who were surrounded by the most people, and the work of the aviation city was also what Wuyang was most concerned about.
Some people know each other, and several don't know each other, shaking hands with everyone, which is regarded as a greeting. Pei Xuewen said: "Let's go to the side and talk. β
Walking aside, Pei Xuewen said: "Wuyang, your other industries have been changed to the board of directors, but the aviation city has not been changed, is it because I am there, you are not easy to arrange?" Actually, you don't have such concerns, I'll be the party secretary of this level. β
Wu Yang said: "Then who do you think is suitable to be the chairman of the board of directors?" β
"Bian Jingwei has a very good set of management, and he is it. Shu Linlin can be the vice chairman in charge of production and technology, Zheng Guozhi, the former director of the political department of our army, who retired from the army. Tian Xinjun, who is also retired from our army's logistics minister, can serve as vice chairman in charge of logistics. There is also a doctor of economic management, Xiao Xing'er, who can be the vice chairman in charge of work, youth and women. β
Wuyang said: "Those are those people? β
"Yes, I didn't introduce you just now, it was those foreigners, I didn't remember their names, so I didn't introduce them. Wuyang, their abilities are definitely competent. The aerotropolis is handed over to them, and we can all rest assured. β
Wuyang said: "Dad, we are a private enterprise. Will the creation of so many positions cause a bloated organization? β
Pei Xuewen said: "It's right to be a private enterprise, but when the enterprise is big, it can't be like those small enterprises." One person manages multiple things. The documents of the superior should be implemented. The legitimate rights and interests of the workers must be safeguarded, and the establishment of these institutions is absolutely necessary. But we don't have a bloated organization like the government, just a lot of people. β
"Okay, you've been managing the aerotropolitan for so many years, what should you do. Knowing better than I am, I won't intervene. But. As you surely know, now the entire company's wage system has been reformed and dividends have basically been abolished. β
Pei Xuewen said: "We have received the documents for this, and everyone knows about it. It is precisely because of the reform of the wage system, the absence of dividends, and the establishment of institutions and personnel is much simpler than before, so I made up my mind to complete the organization and staffing. Recently, the provincial party committee and the provincial government where the aviation city is located are planning to divide several counties around the aviation city into one and set up a prefecture-level city. β
Wuyang said: "This is a good thing, why oppose it?" β
Pei Xuewen said a little angrily: "Why do you think it's a good thing? β
"I think that the establishment of a municipal-level administrative district can strengthen the management of the aviation city, and many things that were originally managed by enterprises can be handed over to the government, and enterprises only need to do a good job in production and sales."
Pei Xuewen said: "What you see here is the pro, but you don't see the disadvantages, and on the whole, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages." First of all, the city government was established, and we had an extra mother-in-law above us, not to mention how we dealt with them and entertained them, even if we had inspections all year round, we couldn't stand it; Secondly, there is the issue of paying taxes. We are now in the middle of several counties, which used to be agricultural counties, and the tax revenue was tens of millions a year. After we started to build the aviation city, we carried out such a large construction project, as long as we paid 10 or 20 million yuan to the counties every year, their available financial resources increased a lot, and they did not come to conduct inspections. If a municipal government is established, it will definitely be necessary to set up a national tax and local taxation bureau, so we don't have to think about anything cheap. Now we produce aircraft, but also enjoy the state's preferential tax policies, not afraid of inspection, but there are still a lot of taxable items, if you want to clarify, there are billions of dollars a year. β
Wuyang said with a smile: "Sooner or later, this kind of thing will have to be on the right track, and relying on tax evasion is not a long-term solution." β
"It's a while to be able to hide. When our large aircraft gets the airworthiness certificate, we can sell it to the world, and we have a reliable source of income, so we don't have to worry about it, and we also have to take the right route, but we have just achieved a balance between input and output, and billions of dollars can still do a lot of things. For example, the small helicopter and monoplane that I just talked about with foreigners, a production line and its supporting parts and components production enterprises, the total investment is about 5 billion, and we have saved several such enterprises in recent years. β
"Dad, how many projects have you negotiated with these friends in the aviation industry?"
"It's still talking. We already have two large passenger planes, an early warning plane, three transport planes, a fighter plane, and a large helicopter production line, and this time we are talking about six production lines. Two of them produce two types of small helicopters, two for small passenger aircraft, one for monoplanes and one for gliders. The parts that go with it will also be produced by ourselves. For tire production, there is no need to build a new factory, but only to expand the original factory and increase the production line. β
Wuyang asked, "Do you think you can negotiate?" β
Pei Xuewen said: "It's enough, their asking price is too high." These technologies are basically mature technologies in China, and they are nothing more than to seize the huge consumer market for small aircraft that will be formed in China. Their technology is more perfect, we stand on the commanding heights, and without their technology, we can also produce. β
"How much do they ask?"
"They take technology as a shareholder, participate in the whole process of production management and financial accounting, and want 33% profit dividends."
"Do you still have to pay your salary?"
"Yes, but it can be deducted from the profit dividend."
Wuyang asked, "Then where is your bottom line?" β
Pei Xuewen said: "It can't exceed 15%. Think about it, we worked hard to produce a small helicopter, the price is about 17 million, after deducting all the costs and equipment depreciation, the profit is about 4 million, if you pay taxes normally, you have to pay 33% income tax, only 2.68 million left, they will divide more than 880,000, our own profit, only more than 1 million, not even the profit of producing a high-end car. High-end cars can be sold for 1,000 taels a year, but helicopters can be sold for 50 a year. β
Wuyang said: "After all, their technology is much stronger than that of domestic ones, and the products produced in the future will definitely be easy to sell, so I still favor introducing them." What if we don't adopt a shareholding system and buy technology outright? β
"Buying technology outright is also too expensive. The technology of a production line costs 1 billion euros, which is equivalent to the production and sale of 3,060 helicopters. I estimate that it will take at least 20 years to sell so many aircraft. At that time, it is still unknown whether this technology has long been outdated. β
Wuyang said: "This method definitely can't be used, we can only go back to the previous method." If they can accept a 15% dividend, then we will sell one aircraft and make a profit of 2.2 million. Although such a small profit is insignificant, as a private aviation enterprise, it is always good to have one more production project. β
Pei Xuewen said: "The key to the problem now is that we can't predict how big the market will be in the future. Thirty years ago, when I was just the political commissar of the regiment, there was only a jeep in the regiment, who would have thought that now many working people can buy cars? β
Wuyang smiled: "Dad, then we will now take Europe and the United States as our model for the future, and now in Europe and the United States, helicopters and private jets are not quite popular?" We are now celebrities and big entrepreneurs who buy airplanes, and maybe everyone will compare and use airplanes in the future. β
Pei Xuewen said: "Your point of view may be right. If they can accept our terms, then we will immediately start applying for an aviation school and establishing a flying club. When the aircraft is produced, these cadets and club members can buy the aircraft. β
"Dad, we can also run an airplane supermarket, which we produce ourselves, and other companies at home and abroad have all done it, and the guests have what they want, and they don't have to go to the second one when they come."
"It's a good idea, I'll fix the airport when I get back. Let's get the things in front of us done. β
Returning to Bian Jingwei and them, Bian Jingwei said: "Boss, we can't talk here, let's rush back to the aviation city today." (To be continued......)
