Chapter 375: The Great Tender

The next morning, Ji Feng and Xiaoyuan flew to Switzerland by special plane, and the yacht was sailed back to Jeju Island by the captain Guo Yefeng and others.

If it weren't for the three little ones, I'm afraid they would have a more cheerful time, and two days later, the new Girls' Generation members had a concert in Bangkok, and Seo Hyun planned to go over to cheer for it, and they didn't have to perform on stage, the key was to see if the scene of this group of girls who took over satisfied them.

Speaking of the new Girls' Generation group, it is still composed of nine people, and after making their debut on stage in the Spring Festival Gala, they have gained huge popularity, although they are not as good as their predecessors Xu Xianjiu, but with their youthful and beautiful beauty and good singing skills, dancing and other solid foundations, they have achieved success.

The new youth is composed of trainees from six countries and regions, and there are thousands of trainees in the Media College under Jeju Media alone, from Bangzi, Nibang, Ahsan, Iran, Pakistan, Singapore, the Celestial Empire, Russia, North Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong and other countries and regions.

After Xu Xian's selection, one Jeju Island nationality, two stick nationality, three Celestial Dynasty nationality (including Taiwan and Hong Kong), one Thai nationality, one Mui Bang nationality, and one Indian nationality were selected.

With such a wealth of nationalities, Zuhe received huge attention at the beginning of the announcement on the same day, and after adjusting and training for more than half a year, he finally made his successful debut on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. And the first album released so far has sold more than 2 million copies throughout Asia, but the bigger one is online music downloads, which have exceeded hundreds of millions in many countries. Especially with its huge population base, the number of downloads of mobile phone ringtones alone is as high as nearly 300 million, which really makes countless artists envious of their eyes.

Soon after Ji Feng's special plane set off, a new tender announcement was issued on the island network, and this time the main one was the tender announcement of construction enterprises, which immediately caused countless waves on Shijie, because for the first time, people saw a large number of design and construction tenders in the Kra area. In addition, Jeju and Sabah have a total of more than 1,000 copies, and suddenly the entire Shijie construction companies are boiling. They are gearing up to prepare materials to go to the bidding, especially the Celestial Empire, Stick and Mud Bombardment, and Thailand, although Ji Feng intends to take care of them, he does not promise them any company. This still needs to be fought for by relevant enterprises in several countries. Take care of it, but it can't harm your own interests.

There are not too many construction projects in Jeju, but after Sabah has stabilized, there are hundreds of design and construction tenders this year.

However, what makes many people a little puzzled is that the design and construction address of the Ministry of Government is in Jeju Island, but the Ministry of Defense is in Kota Kinabalu, and it has been officially listed, and the new building of the Ministry of Human Resources is also designed in Kota Kinabalu. But the headquarters of the major groups are basically all in Jeju Island, what kind of rhythm is this?

Don't say the outside world can't figure it out. Even many of the islanders are a little confused, but this is the case, this is also the result of Ji Feng's full decentralization, and there are so many centers, where do you want to be, anyway, in terms of transportation, the next communication will be more and more aspect, and the location is not a problem.

For this reason, a number of conglomerates are planning to move their new headquarters to Sandakan due to the rapid increase in their staff, and Jeju Air is planning to move its headquarters to Sandakan, where there is an aircraft manufacturing base under the airline group.

The Jeju Shipping Group also has the same idea, but they want to move their headquarters to Puerto Putersa, where the daily throughput is half that of Jeju Island, but the uniqueness of Palawan makes it hesitate.

The most important thing is the Kra area, from the new municipal government buildings, to the urban infrastructure, as well as the expansion of the port, the expansion of the airport, the reconstruction of commercial blocks, the design and construction of large-scale commercial buildings, the design and construction of a large number of excellent residential areas, the construction of several ordinary roads, highways, railway bridges across the canal, etc., the number of which is rare in the world.

Tang Zijian followed the one-step policy established by the Ministry of Government Affairs before, and carried out planning and construction in a big way, and the area is a more open area than Jeju Island and Sabah, and can even be called a public area of Shijie, especially with Thailand and the Celestial Empire, which has attracted countless eyes of Shijie. In the three countries of Malaysia, it is just that the Foreign Affairs Department has temporarily refused, and it is better to wait for the success of the pilot to talk about it, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time.

Although the applications of the three countries were temporarily denied, several countries followed the Thai and Celestial Empires in leasing land in the exclusive diplomatic zone of Ranong and preparing to build their own consulates.

There is no purchase of land in Ji Feng's private territory, all the land belongs to the island owner's mansion belongs to Ji Feng, commercial development is only authorized to you for 50 years of use rights, and you have to pay land use fees every year, and civil housing is completely planned and built by the Ministry of Human Resources and the Ministry of Political Affairs, so the cost of land is exempted, although any foreign capital in Ji Feng's private territory will not lose money, but basically there is no money, especially the civil residence has completely lost the market, Because all the residences are managed by the Ministry of Human Resources and the Ministry of Government Affairs, it is impossible for anyone to buy them unless you sell them to the above two parties.

However, in the past two years, more and more foreigners have protested against this, especially the small number of immigrants every year, those who have money in their hands but can't immigrate, all hope that the Ministry of Government will introduce an investment immigration policy, but this matter is not something that the Ministry of Government can say, and it must be legislated by the Legislative Council to do it, but at the moment the Legislative Council does not have the time to pay attention to this matter, Paterna and others are making every effort to deal with New Zealand and the upcoming Asia-Europe Summit.

It is undoubtedly very hard for people from all walks of life to arrive in the Kra area in advance, and there are not too many hotels here, even if many houses take this opportunity to rent out to make a little money, but the conditions are obviously not comparable with Jeju Island, Kota Kinabalu and other places, but more and more people have seen the huge business opportunities here in the future, which is surging, directly leading to the rental price of private houses in the entire Kra area has increased several times, and some have even doubled more than a dozen times, and some local tyrants even simply "bought" the right to use the entire house for several years. Or preemptively lease an entire floor or an entire office building, which also temporarily serves as a residential function.

It can be said that the hotels, guesthouses, restaurants, residential and commercial buildings in the Kra area are the most urgent, and these are also the easiest to build, although it is almost possible that Yujian will be a huge construction site in the future, but in order to seize the opportunity, there are still many Shijie-level enterprise groups to gather here, are optimistic about the future after the opening of the canal this huge free trade area.

Compared to the non-industrial planning area in Jeju Island and the Sandakan industrial planning area in Sabah, it is clearly more in line with the interests of Shijie countries.

In addition to inheriting the open-door policy of Jeju Island and Sabah, in the planning of the Ministry of Administration, the area will rely on the advantages of the Kra Canal to develop into a huge area focusing on tourism, industry, free trade and commerce. One of the most important points of the zero-tariff treaties signed with other countries is the country of origin policy, and only all kinds of goods produced and manufactured in Jifeng's private territory can enjoy the duty-free policy of entering each country.

Because of this, Sandakan has been favored by major manufacturers around the world since the beginning of its industrial opening, and nearly 1,000 companies have built or are in the process of building factories in Sandakan's industrial planning area, and hundreds have been put into production. Compared to there, it is clear that the Kra region is more in the interests of these manufacturing owners, because the transportation here is more convenient, once the Kra Canal is opened, whether it is to the east or west, it can directly cover the whole of Asia, Africa, the Mediterranean region and Oceania, this supermarket of more than half of the world's population, two-thirds of the zero tariff agreement with the Ministry of Administration.

And there is another advantage that makes them feel that this place can absorb ordinary workers from Thailand and the Celestial Empire, and their salaries are completely different from those of the islanders in Sabah, and the same type of work can only cost 1,000 or even a few hundred thousand thousand thousand and one can be paid the same kind of work here.

In the midst of the excitement of the whole shijie, Ji Feng's special plane arrived in Zurich, and Arifa, who arrived one step earlier, had already booked a hotel for Ji Feng, just next to UBS, and at the same time Arifa also told Ji Feng a news that made him laugh and cry, and the Republic of Switzerland recently discussed whether Ji Feng should enjoy government subsidies.

Many Swiss people believe that since Ji Feng has Swiss citizenship and has never cancelled it, he should enjoy a government subsidy of about $2,500 a month, regardless of whether he lives in Switzerland for as many days a year as required.

But there are also many people who believe that Ji Feng does not live in Switzerland for a long time, and judging from his entry and exit records, he has not been to Switzerland at all in the past two years except for the time of his initial application, and his Swiss nationality should be cancelled by the government. Moreover, Ji Feng, as a world-renowned super-rich man, should no longer enjoy the same treatment as ordinary Swiss citizens, and the monthly subsidy of $2,500 means nothing to him.

The two sides have launched a fierce controversy on the Internet, and in the last two days, it has extended to the media, newspapers and television debates, and Ji Feng seems to have suddenly become the hottest figure in Switzerland, and even more popular than the president of the Swiss Confederation.

Seeing Ji Feng rolling his eyes without a license, Arifa said that he was very happy, and after haha laughed, he told Ji Feng that the governor had an appointment with Ji Feng for dinner in the evening, and Ji Feng agreed to the other party's invitation after thinking about it.
