In autumn, the city is breezy and the sky is blue.

On both sides of the road, the trees gradually become yellow and green, like a colorful picture.

Fang Bai sat on the big bank, the air conditioning in the car had been turned off, his eyes were focused, looking at the group of bicycles on both sides of the road, the bells were ringing non-stop, and those passers-by wearing cotton cloth, while listening to the big man report on his work.

Fortunately, the windows were tight, and the sound outside the window could not squeeze into the car, and Fang Bai could still hear what the big man said.

"Boss, the villa in Yu Garden has been cleaned up and cleaned up at present, and you can move in in a few days.

Yan's garden is still a little old, and it has to be renovated, just close to Jiaotong University.

If you want me to say, you still have to hurry up to build a big villa in Pudong New Area to meet your current status, and I don't know how the villa in your hometown is built. Wang Dakai, who was sitting in the passenger cab, chattered with a little interest, his current monthly salary has risen to 1,000 yuan, and he is currently in a relationship with his high school classmate Zhang Xiaoai.

Zhang Xiaoai was studying in a junior college in Shencheng, and Fang Bai was a little confused about how the big man got along with this Ramu Yoko, and the two often quarreled when they first repeated.

Zhang Xiaoai is not pretty, under the curved eyebrows is a pair of apricot eyes, cherry mouth, under the round big face looks much smaller, a little spicy, silly and cute.

People are very good, but they speak more sharply.

Fang Bai asked Wang Dakai to help him find a villa, and the Yan Family Garden, which was built in 1920, covers an area of 8.5 acres, which is very close to Jiaotong University, but far away from Xinghai Group. This villa is expensive on the land, and the house is not worth much, spending 14 million yuan.

Now the land in XH area is not cheap, not less than 1.5 million yuan per mu, and it has risen very sharply.

The land expropriated by Fang Bai in the core area of Xuhui was almost completed by the city leaders, and the price of the land he bought from the government was 2 million yuan per mu, and 100 acres of land was 200 million yuan.

Originally, Fang Bai planned to demolish the Yan family garden and build a new one, but considering that this villa still has a lot of history, he just spent money to repair it, and it will be worth one billion yuan in 20 years, which is actually selling land.

There are a lot of famous buildings in Shencheng with history, it would be a pity if they were all demolished, Fang Bai intends to preserve them for future generations to see, it is not just a villa, but represents an era.

At present, the reconstruction policy is not strict, and after the policy is down, it cannot be dismantled and newly built at will.

Fang Bai didn't plan to live there, and bought a villa closer to Yu Garden, which was smaller in area, covering an area of more than one acre, and made a temporary transition.

He now has five residences in Shencheng, and Fang Bai also asked Wang Dakai to help him see it, and if it is suitable, he will buy it.

Dakai makes sense, and he should build a big villa in Pudong New Area to fit his identity.

He previously purchased 200 acres of commercial land in Shaxian County, located in the future Thumb Square, the north side of Century Plaza, has not been built, 200 acres of land, there is no investment plan at present, wait until 1995.

If you want to build a villa area, it will be good near the east side of Dongjiao Hotel in the future, and there will be many villa areas near it in the future, such as Tomson Golf Villa, Dongjiao Garden, Regency Garden, and the top villa area Huazhou Junting, which is only a few kilometers away from Xinghai Group.

Fang Bai plans to move Xinghai's polluting factories away from other places, leaving only high-tech laboratories and non-polluting factories.

He feels that the current 2,000 acres of land is still a little less, not enough for the future layout, he plans to communicate with the city leaders at the end of the year, to see how much land can be purchased, every year the factory extends to the south, and find a way to build a 10,000 mu industrial park of Xinghai Group.

Xinghai Group is only four kilometers away from Lujiazui Xinghai Building, and the distance from its own villa area is about the same, and it is very convenient for Fangbai to work in both places.

Of course, if you are not used to living in the villa area, you can also live in the Xinghai Building.

"You think you can buy land at will if you have money, and there are restrictions on land development in Pudong New Area every year, unless there are good projects." Fang Bai glanced at the big man, although his glasses were still looking at the scenery outside the window, his eyes were already scattered, and at the same time, his thoughts were scattered at will.

"Boss, your project is a good project, the leaders of the Wencheng government have to kneel down and beg you to invest, and I can see it in Shencheng."

"Just say it here, don't talk nonsense."

"Don't worry, I still know that, hehe." The big man turned his head and gave Fang Bai a sly smile.

After two years with him, his skin is no longer as dark as before, but he exercises regularly, his muscles are knotted, and he looks more like a muscular strong man.

Passers-by and company employees are more afraid of him when they see him, just like at an exhibition, he is standing in front of the backstage, and the audience does not dare to approach Fang Bai.

Fang Bai withdrew his gaze and leaned back in his chair to close his eyes.

After the Goldfinger upgrade last night, he has more expectations for the future.

On the virtual screen, his personal wealth has reached 3.4 billion yuan, and nearly one billion yuan is earned from selling VCDs.

The stock of the ugly country is not realized, and the gold finger is not counted.

Xinghai Real Estate Company began to sell the third residential community in early March this year, and the fourth residential community began to sell in July this year, which also added a lot of wealth to Fang Bai.

The villa area asked by the big man, the design plan was finalized in May, and it is currently under construction, and the model building is the fastest to build and begin to enter the decoration stage.

The money is made quickly, but Xinghai Group also owes a lot of debt, and currently owes a total of 3.7 billion yuan to the bank!

A year of bank interest will cost 400 million!

Those bank loans that expired in two years have been repaid by Fang Bai.

The bank saw that he was making money quickly, and the more they wanted to lend him money.

When he pours the frieze, he will fall into the well, and he will definitely come to the door to collect debts.

It seems that the loan amount is large, but the debt ratio is not high, and the loan amount in Wencheng and Shencheng is limited, otherwise, Fang Bai will continue to take out loans and hoard land first.

It's not that the bank doesn't want to give him a loan, it's that there isn't much money left to give him a loan.

Like Wencheng, whose GDP was just more than 10 billion yuan last year, gave him a loan of 2 billion yuan at the beginning of the year, what kind of concept is this?

Many of them are new national banknotes, and a large part of them are saved by local residents.

2 billion yuan is evenly distributed to millions of people in Wencheng, and there are several hundred yuan per capita, which is not a small amount.

Turning off the virtual screen, Fang Bai had an idea of his wealth.

He occasionally misses the era when cars roared and the city was noisy, lying on the bedside playing with his mobile phone and watching short videos, occasionally with some sadness.

Of course, it was a miserable and desolate time for him, and now he tries not to recall the past.

But Fang Bai is a nostalgic person, he misses his daughter, and thinks very much, there are some things that he will not forget, and some debts must be resolved, which has always been buried in his heart.

"Boss, it's here."

The big man's shout pulled Fang Bai's thoughts back to reality.

Fang Bai saw the car door open, straightened his collar and got out of the car, and the four bodyguards in the back car surrounded him and led Fang Bai into the exhibition center.

It was already past nine o'clock in the morning, and visitors were pouring into the exhibition.

Fang Bai entered from the exhibitor channel and signaled the exhibitor's halterneck work card to not queue up. The staff also knew him, and with a professional smile on his face, he motioned for him to come in without checking his identity.

On the third day of the exhibition, the harvest was not as good as the second day.

In the next few days, the harvest was not as much as the first two days, and there were tens of millions of yuan of orders every day, and only more than 20 million yuan on the last day.

In seven days, Xinghai Group won a total of about 500 million yuan in order contracts, of which the contract value of export orders was about 30 million US dollars.

On the last day, Fang Bai was not at his own booth, but visited the mechanical booth.

He had to purchase equipment for the company, and whenever he visited a booth, the exhibitors were very enthusiastic and tried to get to know him.

Shencheng International Industrial Exhibition, there are also many foreign equipment exhibitors.

At the end of the day, Fang Bai purchased a lot of equipment, spent tens of millions of yuan, and gained more than 20 contacts on this day.

At present, the number of his contacts has reached 375, and if you want to upgrade, you have to have 640, which is unlikely to be within a year.

The day after the exhibition, Fang Bai went to the Shencheng government compound to sign the land agreement.

The land acquisition of Xinghai Square in XH District and HP District has ended, covering an area of about 200 acres, and the land cost is about 600 million yuan, of which the land in HP District is the most expensive, spending 400 million yuan, which is much higher than he expected.

It's just too difficult to acquire land, it took a few months to get it, if it comes to the real estate outbreak period, it's not a matter of money at all, or it's so expensive that Fang Bai can't accept it, and the investment is not cost-effective.

The shopping mall in HP District is located in and around the future Shanghai New World Daimaru Department Store, specifically at the intersection of the eastern section of N Jing Road Pedestrian Street and H South Middle Road, adjacent to the Bund, with a unique geographical location, that is, the most core business district of the Bund.

The future Shanghai New World Daimaru Department Store site covers only 30 acres of land, and it was later acquired and opened in 2015.

The more difficult it is to acquire land, 30 acres of land is too small.

In the future, Wanda could want to build a Wanda Square on the Bund, but he couldn't get land and couldn't expropriate it, so he could only stay away from the current urban area to acquire land.

Now Fang Bai has paid a lot of money to acquire land, and the local government has indeed spent a lot of effort to acquire 100 acres of land nearby.

Although it is relatively close to Xinghai Square in Lujiazui, it is still different.

The Bund has a large flow of people, and the positioning of the two shopping malls is also somewhat different.

Lujiazui is located in the financial and commercial district, with a high level of consumption, and the future Xinghai Plaza is positioned as a high-end, and ordinary brands cannot settle in.

The Xinghai Plaza on J East Road on the Bund South is mainly aimed at nearby residents and tourists, and is positioned in the mid-range, and international luxury brands will not be placed here.

Xinghai Square, XH District, is located on the south side of Jiaotong University, the future Grand Gateway Plaza, and the intersection of three subways.

It just so happened that Xinghai Group currently had money, so it paid the money at one time.

After obtaining the land, we began to go through the procedures for starting construction, and first built Xinghai Square in the HP area, and strive to put it into use in mid-1995.

Xinghai Square, which covers an area of 100 acres, is not a building that covers an area of 100 acres, but it is very large if you add public land.

It covers a wide range of property types such as shopping malls, urban commercial pedestrian streets, five-star hotels, 5A grade A office buildings, and urban hardcover SOHO.

The annual profit margin on investing in a hotel is relatively low, usually between 10% and 20%, and higher if the location is better.

Fang Bai doesn't plan to build a hotel, but after it is built, it can be sold at a premium or used for a mortgage.

Shopping malls are generally six storeys long, plus two underground parking garages, with a construction area of about 250,000 square meters, which is very large.

The total property construction area of the entire Xinghai Plaza is about 500,000 square meters, in addition to the cost of land, it is also necessary to invest at least 700 million yuan, with a budget of 1 billion yuan, of which the decoration cost accounts for the majority, it depends on how to decorate, anyway, the decoration is a bottomless pit.

Wencheng Xinghai Plaza has invested 200 million yuan, but there is no hotel that costs special money to decorate, and the steel is cheaper, and the labor cost in Wencheng is lower.

If it is put in 20 years, the construction cost of the main building and decoration of the same area is estimated to be 3 billion yuan, but the construction cost is very cheap compared to the land cost of the core commercial area.

Like the later generations of Jincheng Wanda Plaza in Zhejiang Province, the total construction area is also 500,000 square meters, built in 2014, with a total investment of 4.8 billion yuan, in addition to the cost of land, the cost of construction and decoration to 3 billion yuan.

Today, the two Xinghai Plazas, with a total construction area of one million square meters, plus land, have an investment budget of 2.5 billion yuan.

But at this time, 2.5 billion yuan, Fang Bai felt that it was worth more than 20 billion yuan 20 years later.

Fang Bai plans to invest in shopping malls first, and invest in hotels, office buildings and commercial residences later.

The nature of the land is commercial land, and Fang Bai can't do it if he wants to engage in ordinary residential land.

Now that the group has money to invest, Fang Bai signed the agreement and communicated with his parents at night to build.

The construction company is very busy, currently engaged in three real estate projects and a commercial building, a villa area and two residential communities at the same time, and the second phase of Wencheng Xinghai Plaza has entered the renovation stage, and will start to attract investment at the end of the year, and strive to open before the Spring Festival.

In addition, there are five construction teams that have been responsible for the construction and decoration of Hualian Supermarket, and five branches have been started at the same time, with a total of 100 people, and it is impossible to draw personnel.

The construction company does not have the qualifications and experience of bridge construction, and the bridge construction is responsible for the state-owned enterprises, which started construction in March this year and is expected to be opened to traffic by the end of next year.

At present, the number of employees of Xinghai Construction Company has reached more than 4,000.

These more than 4,000 people seem to be a lot, but if you take over a Xinghai Square project with a total construction area of 500,000 square meters, the construction period requires two years, and at least 2,000 people need to enter the site at the peak.

Of course, only shopping malls need to be built, each with a floor area of about 250,000 square meters, and a peak number of 1,000 construction workers.

Xinghai Construction Company has been recruiting people like crazy, but it is not so easy to recruit.

Now, Fang Bai requires the two shopping malls to start construction at the same time, and the company can't draw so many people, so it has to recruit people while bidding for a part of the project to an outside construction company.

On the morning of August 30, Fang Shi convened a meeting of the construction company's top management.

"There are two Xinghai Squares in Shencheng, with a total construction area of one million square meters, and only a shopping center is currently built, with a total construction area of 500,000 square meters, including a two-story underground garage, including decoration, with a construction period of one and a half years.

There are a lot of projects over there, and the company's team needs to constantly improve their technical level, and everyone has to learn. ”

Fang Bai's father will also shake off his troubles, so that he has a headache to find a way, three large construction sites here in northern Europe are under construction, and the original project still has some finishing work that needs to be sent out, his son called him last night, and his scalp was numb when he heard about the million-square-meter project.

Hearing this, the eyes of the four high-level executives widened.

Lu Dahai took a deep breath and said in surprise: "My God, the little boss is really good at tossing, one million square meters, and it will take two years to take all the employees of Wencheng Company away." ”

"The big boss said that the current is 500,000 square meters, but the construction period required by the small boss is too short, and it is easy to say that it will take two years." Lin Ping, the company's chief engineer and vice president of technology, reminded and rubbed his temples.

It's a good thing for construction companies, but the company can't expand as fast as small bosses.

The factory was built by outsourcing due to the small scale of the construction company.

The requirements of the small boss are efficiency, and the quality cannot be bad, which is very demanding.

They all know some things about the group, VCD is selling well, and it is currently the most profitable company in the group, while their construction company is making hard money, and there is not much money.

Of course, for other construction companies, working for their own companies is quick to get paid, and they also owe a lot of equipment debt to the machinery company.

"Then what else can I do, take the transfer, and then hurry up and recruit people." Song Ji, a minority shareholder, said with a smile and took out a cigarette to smoke.

"Lao Song, you can say it easily, our villa project, a total of 300,000 square meters, there are still 400,000 square meters of residential projects under development, thousands of people work overtime every day, take away 1,000 people, and some projects have to be suspended." Lu Dahai glanced at him, a little annoyed, and took out a cigarette to smoke.

Fang Shi was silent for a while, and decided to say: "Draw some people from each project, and add new recruits to the withdrawal team, don't always recruit from your fellow countrymen, the speed is too slow, if you can attract the construction team, it's okay."

The project in Shencheng is very important, because the piece of gold and soil there was put into use half a year later, and there were many losses.

Now we want to arrange a vice president of the project to be in charge of the project in Shencheng, which of the three of you is willing to go over? ”

Hearing the big boss's words, everyone was worried, but the Shencheng project was indeed very urgent, which is also a good thing.

The three of them discussed, simply drew lots, and finally went to Shencheng by land and sea. (End of chapter)
