Therefore, when "Boundless VCD" arrived, it was as if we had come to a vast and fertile virgin land!

In addition, PHS (Personal Handyphone System) has also seen great success in India, making Wujiang Group a fortune.

It must be said that the release of PHS (Personal Handyphone System) before the maturity of 2G communication technology truly gave it a huge market. People urgently needed an inexpensive, portable mobile communication device.

Current 1G analog mobile phones are expensive.

2G technology failed to take off.

That's why the PHS (Personal Handyphone System) technology was able to exploit this loophole.

Even in the United States, some cities used PHS (Personal Handyphone System), but it did not become widespread.

As for Qualcomm in the United States, it doesn't even have a ticket to enter the CDMA field in this life, and many of its basic patents have been applied for by Wujiang Group.

As a commercial company, Qualcomm naturally wants to make money. Since the CDMA approach is not viable, they've moved on to exploring other avenues.

Two months later.

At this time, many counterfeit VCD players appeared in China, with retail prices mostly above 4,000 yuan and below 4,500 yuan.

The domestic pirated VCD industry is booming.

"A single flower does not make spring, but a hundred flowers blooming together make a garden full of spring!"

"Wujiang has really made a fortune this time!!"

Zhao Ye smiled.

Multiple manufacturers working together to develop the VCD market is essentially making the pie bigger together.

However, Wujiang sells MPEG-1 decoding chips and VCD drives to other manufacturers. The more VCD players they sell, the more money Wujiang makes.

The more money they earn, the more confident they will be in poaching talent from the Soviet Union in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ye's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile.

...

Shenzhen.

"Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to be competing for this land in Shenzhen!" A Hong Kong real estate businessman looked slightly awkward when he saw Li Ka-shing.

This real estate tycoon was very interested in the land, but who was Li Ka-shing? If he joined the competition, he would have no chance.

Li Jiacheng smiled slightly and said, "The Shenzhen government is preparing to sell a piece of land in Longhua District, covering an area of ​​about 3 square kilometers. Of course, I am very interested in this land!"

Just then, He Jinpeng, the Shenzhen vice mayor in charge of the economy, walked over to Li Ka-shing.

"Mr. Li Ka-shing, hello, I am He Jinpeng, Vice Mayor of Shenzhen. Welcome to Shenzhen for inspection and investment!" He Jinpeng greeted Li Ka-shing warmly.

Li Jiacheng shook hands with Vice Mayor He Jinpeng and smiled, "Mayor He, hello!"

"Mr. Li, I heard you're interested in this piece of land in Longhua District?" He Jinpeng asked.

Li Ka-shing nodded: "Yes, Cheung Kong Holdings plans to invest billions to build commercial streets, hotels, cinemas, office buildings and large residential areas here."

Upon hearing this, He Jinpeng became excited.

If we could get Li Ka-shing to invest in Shenzhen, it would definitely attract more Hong Kong businessmen!

“Since Mr. Li is interested in this land, let’s go to the office to talk,” He Jinpeng invited.

“Okay, no problem.” Li Jiacheng nodded with a smile, thinking that there shouldn’t be any problem in getting this land. In order to attract his investment, the Shenzhen government would definitely sell the land to him at a very low price.

As expected, upon arriving at the office, He Jinpeng, representing the government, officially began negotiations with Li Ka-shing regarding the land.

Shenzhen's development far surpasses that of its predecessors.

As a result, land prices have soared.

Three square kilometers of land, or three million square meters, although the location is relatively remote, would fetch at least 500 million RMB if sold to the public.

Li Ka-shing then quoted the Shenzhen government 200 million RMB.

This left He Jinpeng and other officials speechless for a moment.

“Mr. Li, isn’t 200 million RMB too little? Land prices in Shenzhen are rising rapidly. This piece of land in Longhua District covers an area of ​​more than 3 million square meters, which is extremely large and its value is far more than 200 million RMB,” He Jinpeng said.

Li Ka-shing smiled and said unhurriedly, "Because this piece of land is very large, it will put a lot of investment pressure on Cheung Kong Holdings, requiring a total investment of seven or eight billion RMB. Therefore, our group hopes that the government can lower the land price a bit..."

Li Ka-shing is making baseless accusations here. In fact, Cheung Kong Holdings has no intention of making any large-scale investment or development projects here at present. Longhua District is a bit far from the city center of Shenzhen. Li Ka-shing plans to buy the land first, then hold it for more than ten years, waiting for the land value to appreciate. In the future, he can either sell the land or develop it himself.

He Jinpeng and the others looked at each other, pondering the gains and losses.

“Selling the land to Li Ka-shing at a low price, thereby securing his investment and construction here, is not out of the question…” an official suggested in a low voice.

He Jinpeng frowned and said, "But this price is really too low."

“Then let him raise the price a little more. If we can negotiate it down to 400 million RMB, we’ll accept it!” the other official whispered.

He Jinpeng nodded.

He looked at Li Ka-shing and said, "Mr. Li, 200 million RMB is still too little. The government can give you a discount. How about 450 million RMB?"

Li Jiacheng shook his head, indicating that he could not accept it.

He Jinpeng reluctantly revealed his bottom line: "400 million RMB, that's the lowest I can go!"

Li Jiacheng shook his head again, still disagreeing.

“Mayor He, it would be difficult for anyone else to develop this land, so it would be better to sell it to Cheung Kong Holdings at a lower price. Cheung Kong Holdings has extensive experience in real estate development, strong financial resources, advanced technology, and a wide network of connections. If this land is developed well, it will definitely greatly promote the economic development of Shenzhen!”
