439 New Territories powder keg
During this period, many real estate companies such as "Chinese Land" and "Xingcheng Land" came to Oriental Bank for guarantees, hoping to join the "pre-plan" army. He Dingxian did not dare to guarantee too many real estate companies out of consideration of financial risks, and refused to do so, "Chinese Land" and "Xingcheng Land" also switched to the arms of Hang Seng and East Asia, and Zheng Yu's New World Land under the same name also became an important customer of Hang Seng.
Jardine Land, Swire Land, and Wheelock Land have also embraced foreign companies.
Within two or three years, the precinct flowers will be full of Xiangjiang.
A financial plan with fast payment, high turnover, and high property market is not easy to find, and the success of pre-sale is completely predictable.
Half a year later.
A piece of news caused a huge shock in the Chinese community, the Hong Kong government announced the official development of the New Territories, the launch of the "New Territories Development Plan", which intends to requisition a number of land plots in Lam Tin, Tuen Mun and Tsuen Wan in the New Territories to build Tuen Zhi Buildings to resettle villagers.
After the land is auctioned, it will be used to build a port, set up warehouses, and build factories in the future.
Since the Hong Kong government obtained the "Extension of Hong Kong Island Boundary Site" and has jurisdiction over the New Territories, it has always been cautious about the development of the New Territories. Because, the New Territories is too close to Bao'an, and once there is any trouble, the funds invested in the New Territories will be wasted.
Moreover, Britain dared to develop Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula because it had the legal right to govern Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, but it was afraid that the Mainland would not recognize the "Treaty on the Extension of the Boundary Site of Hong Kong Island".
The first twenty years are good to say, whether it is the resettlement of immigrants, or timber, iron ore, and stone.
The New Territories has made an indelible contribution to the development of Hong Kong Island.
You must know that in the early days of urban construction, when Hong Kong Island opened its port, not to mention high-rise buildings, brick houses and stone houses were rare, and the things needed most were not oil, electricity, tap water, etc. It is necessary to wood, iron ore, marble, clay.
These resources are scarce on islands and peninsulas, and must be mined in the New Territories, and it is extremely inexpensive to transport them from Southeast Asia.
From the very beginning, the ghost gangsters seized the New Territories in order to make up for the shortcomings of the port city and speed up the economic development of Hong Kong Island. In fact, the ghost guy is very far-sighted, and Hong Kong Island with the New Territories is definitely different from Hong Kong Island without the New Territories.
However, after using the resources of the New Territories, Hong Kong Island has not brought any construction to the New Territories.
At present, there is not even a single arterial road connecting to the New Territories, most of which are dirt roads, and more than 95% of the housing estates have no access to water, electricity, wells, coal lamps, and firewood. At one time, Tai Mo Shan and Lotus Mountain were cut to pieces, and it looked like a bare stone mountain from a distance.
In the struggle against the ghosts, every generation of the villagers of the New Territories has to pay their blood.
The ghost guy officially announced the development of the New Territories, undoubtedly touching the most sensitive nerve.
"Ah Geng, have you finished reading the New Territories Development Plan? What do you think the ghost guy is trying to do in the New Territories? He Dingxian threw a plan on the table in the Oriental Bank, put his hands on the armrests of the sofa, leaned on the back of the chair, and crossed Erlang's legs.
Qiu De stood up behind the desk in a gray suit, came to the water dispenser with a smile, opened the tea canister and shook it, and said loudly: "Bai Liji is interested in making money in Victoria Harbor and wants to build another large port in the New Territories." ”
"Tsuen Wan is undoubtedly a great place to be."
Tsuen Wan has a large coastline.
Not only can it build a large cargo terminal, but it is also convenient for expansion, which is a very suitable location.
Historically, the Hong Kong government issued a report in the late 60s to build a new container terminal, and in 70 years, the Kwai Chung area of Tsuen Wan was selected to start construction, all the way from Pier 1 to Pier 9, and from Kwai Chung to Tsing Yi Shan.
This was later known as the Kwai Tsing Container Terminal.
"Yes."
"The ghost guy only has money in his eyes, where would he think of anything to develop the New Territories."
But as long as the New Territories can achieve water and electricity supply in major towns and cities, reaching the level of one-tenth of the Kowloon Peninsula, he will wonder if the ghost guy intends to do something practical to benefit the people and win over the people.
Even if it's a good person.
It's better than a white prostitute.
I didn't expect that the entire New Territories development plan looked down, all the relocation, land acquisition is preparing for the construction of the wharf in the future, to say that it is still to make money, and when the land acquisition is completed and the wharf is repaired, there is not a single hair of the citizens of the New Territories.
Will the customs duties be distributed to you?
At most, build a few big trucks coming and going every day, and the roaring highway is placed at your doorstep to see if it is cool.
Of course, the ghost guy didn't specify the purpose of building the wharf, but with a little brain, people in the business world can guess where the next move will be. After all, Victoria Harbour is indeed no longer enough for trade, and with the opening up of the mainland in the future, it will be even more insufficient!
Moreover, since the United States developed the model of container terminals in 1950, the model of warehouse separation at Victoria Harbour Terminal has become outdated.
Because, the container terminal adopts a unified container, which can be both unloaded and stored.
The container system can not only save space on cruise ships, but also on terminal storage space.
Lao Mei has done a really good job in standardization.
In the future, the new Kwai Tsing Pier could once be the busiest terminal in the world.
Of course, He Dingxian knew the success of Kwai Tsing Wharf, and it was not until 03 years that it was surpassed by Shanghai Wharf, which shows that Bai Liji's vision for economic development is really powerful, and he can grasp the pain points of the city at once, but why is TM so picky?
"Big boss."
"Drink tea."
Qiu Degen put a cup of chrysanthemum in front of him and sat down with a smile: "Don't worry about the villagers in the New Territories, the villagers in the New Territories have always claimed to be Chinese people, and they are closer to the mainland than the Hong Kong government." ”
"Since the abolition of all unequal treaties in the Mainland, the villagers of the New Territories have not called themselves Hong Kong people, but have called themselves New Territories people."
"People from China, Guangdong Province, New Territories Town!"
The funny thing is that a large number of indigenous people on Hong Kong Island, especially in the New Territories, do not call themselves Hong Kong Islanders, but call themselves "New Territories people", and most of the people who call themselves Hong Kong Islanders are descendants of immigrants, and they don't know where they got their courage.
"It is not so easy for the Hong Kong government to eat the New Territories, at least it has to pay an equal price in exchange."
Of course, people in the New Territories are not stupid, let alone weak.
It has always been a hard stubble in the eyes of the Hong Kong government, and in history, the Hong Kong government has repeatedly tried to develop the New Territories and has been repelled, and the people of the New Territories not only dare to play with you, but also dare to rob, make bombs, and play with you to the end.
You have your semi-automatic, and I use my dirt shotgun.
The main one for one.
Let's see if there are more ghosts or more people in the New Territories.
"Of course I'm not afraid that something will happen to the people in the New Territories, the ghosts are all dead, and the New Territories are fine." He Dingxian took a sip of tea and said happily: "I just think that the ghost guy's face of eating alone is too disgusting, relying on the army, conquisition the land that has been passed down from generation to generation, and taking the life to open up the land that has been opened up, and giving it to a mansion for nothing?" ”
"Not to mention the size, just the cramped house type, the depressing design, I don't know how many years of reinforced concrete can last, the old mother of Lost Lei, it is really a cheap Chinese life!"
"At least get something useful in exchange."
Qiu De smiled even more: "These things will naturally be solved by the four surnames of the New Territories, although the New Territories boys are brave and ruthless, they mix in the community when they are young, and they farm and work when they grow up, but the grandfathers who talk about things in the family are all old foxes, and the little abacus of the ghost governor can't be hidden in their hearts." ”
In ancient times, the imperial power did not go to the countryside, and the same was true of Hong Kong Island, in the era when it was not modern enough, the Hong Kong government did not develop roads for the New Territories, and a few sweatshops, in addition to squeezing, were squeezing. The villagers do not enjoy welfare, and if they want to survive, they can only farm, and without pro-government jurisdiction, they can only use the clan system.
As a result, the clan power in the New Territories region is extremely strong, and the four major surnames of Lu, Mo, Situ, and Wang control almost half of the land in the New Territories. This allowed the local indigenous people to perpetuate, and also created a strong rejection of newcomers and ghosts by the people of the New Territories.
"I want to use this opportunity to teach the Ghost Governor a lesson." He Dingxian smiled: "By the way, cut a piece of meat from the British capital." ”
"Big boss."
Qiu De's expression was even more stunned, thinking of the previous action of the big guy who had been gathering the Chamber of Commerce, his heart immediately beat wildly, and he said bitterly: "You not only want to cut a piece of meat from the British capital, but also cut a piece of meat from the governor." ”
"What's your expression?"
"Crying!"
He Dingxian raised his eyebrows.
Qiu De lowered his head and drank tea: "I don't have any expression, I'm just afraid of you." ”
He was afraid of the evil energy of the big boss, let alone other people.
"Although I haven't torn my face with the governor, the battle has never stopped, right? You said as if I had a good relationship with him, and I couldn't even fight. He Dingxian smiled and said, "I've been waiting for an opportunity to do it. ”
"Now it seems that the Hong Kong government has taken the initiative to develop the New Territories and touch the bad luck of the villagers in the New Territories, which is just our opportunity."
He had never been able to get involved in the New Territories before, and his greatest energy was nothing more than raising a few more rotten boys in the New Territories, but he could not have any influence on the squire class at all. If they can grasp more power that the governor cannot control, it will be easier for the Chinese to be stronger in the future.
What's more, the villagers of the New Territories are also part of the Chinese people, and even if their behavior is rigid due to the family system, the enemy of their enemies is their friends, and there is a lot of room for cooperation between the two.
"Whatever you want, anyway, I'm only in charge of banking matters, and you just have to call me if you want money." Qiu De spread his hands, very refreshing.
Ho Ting-yin had never imagined why the May Storm would be in contact with the villagers in the New Territories and win the "Ding Quan" system for the villagers in the New Territories. It turned out that during the period between the financial war and the May storm, the Hong Kong government also drew up a plan for the development of the New Territories, involving the New Territories as another Chinese force, and it seems that the May storm was fundamentally an incident of conspiracy between Chinese capital on Hong Kong Island and the squires of the New Territories, and holding the banner of the north was just an excuse, and the key was to strive for the interests of the Chinese on Hong Kong Island.
Of course, this is subjectively a bit unfriendly to the north, but objectively it has promoted the people's hearts on Hong Kong Island to the north, although it is not "patriotic" enough, but it is true enough, because there is no love for no reason in the world, and love for profit is not a kind of love?
"I want to die fewer people and fight for more interests for the Chinese." Ho Ting-yin hopes to help the villagers in the New Territories to win more and better benefits than a Ding Quan, and it will not be in vain for the villagers in the New Territories to shed blood and contribute.
