Flights between Liantou Port and the two new islands have not yet been opened, so Li Yaolin can only take a yacht to reach Pilot Island.
There is no formal pier here, only a wooden bridge built with wood as a temporary pier, at the neck of the island, not far from the area where the island resort will be built.
The road on the island has been repaired. It is built along the coastline, and from a distance it looks like a waistline, but this does not affect its beauty. On the contrary, because of the reasonable design, this uninhabited desert island has a touch of exquisite elegance after being carved.
Street lights and landscape lights are built on the outside of the road, fences and safety notices are also installed in place, there are also two pavilions on the island, and currently only one public toilet has been built.
After a round trip back to the neck of the island, she also had an idea of what scale of resort to build.
She planned to build three types of holiday homes based on the most popular hotel room types, one is a large villa with an independent garden and swimming pool, one is a small villa for families, and the other is a small house for couples or those with fewer companions.
Since the development positioning of these two islands is different from that of Xingzhou Island, and the main project is not a recreational project, it is expected that fewer tourists will choose to stay overnight, so the business model here is mainly to create an island leisure vacation theme model centered on the resort.
Under this direction, there will be more tourists for corporate team building and family travel.
Considering the high-end positioning of the resort, Li Yaolin abandoned the idea of building wooden houses and asked Liang Ying to design the plan according to the number of "20 large villas + 30 family villas + 50 double rooms".
Since it is a resort, supporting facilities must also keep up, and open-air barbecue sites, medical clinics, tourist service centers, restaurants and convenience stores must be planned.
Although the main project is not entertainment, there cannot be no entertainment at all. The glass plank road she planned before can become one of the special projects to attract tourists to come and play.
The cost of the glass plank road is 4.8 million yuan, which is too cheap compared to the cable car and undersea tunnel!
Of course, before building these projects, the pier must be built first.
Fortunately, she asked the housekeeper to leave her some working capital. It wasn't much, but it was several tens of millions, more than enough to build the pier.
After planning these, she also circled the sea areas around the two islands and planned them as a [No Fishing Zone].
The [No Fishing Zone] on the Xingzhou Island was merged with the [Special Marine Ecological Protection Zone] and upgraded to a [Special Protection Zone] because the affinity coefficient reached 50 points.
The upgraded protection zone no longer requires operating costs - although the previous operating costs were not very high.
When Li Yaolin discovered the "affinity coefficient", she asked the little mermaid about its function. The little mermaid said that when it reaches a certain value, it will attract more and more rare animals to live here for a long time.
What happened later really proved what he said. Green sea turtles were the first rare animals to settle and lay eggs on Xingzhou Island. Later, various species of sea turtles, dugongs, Chinese white dolphins, and whale sharks migrated to settle here. Even the ocean-going killer whales were once considered resident whales because they only moved around the waters of Xingzhou Island.
When the affinity coefficient exceeded 50 points, female humpback whales stayed here with their pups after giving birth. Even if they did not go to high-latitude waters, there was plenty of food here to fill their stomachs, and they did not have to worry about the pups being attacked on the way to high-latitude waters.
But the male whales still follow their original habit of going to high latitudes to hunt, because they are worried that their appetite will reduce the food for the female whales and their pups.
This strange phenomenon puzzled many oceanographers, who thought that their research for most of their lives was in vain, until they tracked other humpback whales and found that their research was not wrong, but the humpback whales here in Xingzhou Island were too special.
In addition to not requiring operating costs, [Special Protection Areas] do not seem to be much different from [No Fishing Zones]. Fishermen who illegally fish during the fishing ban still get nothing in these areas.
However, if you pay close attention, you will find that the [No-Fishing Zone] cannot prohibit the intrusion of fishing boats. However, after being upgraded to a [Specially Protected Area], when some poachers intend to enter the area to capture the rare marine animals here, they will find that there is fog on the sea surface. The lighthouse that can guide the lost ships thousands of miles away is now without any light. The fog is so thick that even their flashlights cannot penetrate it. When
they wander around for a long time and finally leave the fog, they will find that the boat has already drifted more than ten miles away, and the law enforcement ship of the fishery administration is not far away. It seems that a pair of invisible big hands pushed the boat in front of the law enforcement ship, allowing the law enforcement officers to arrest them.
Poacher: "..."
It's fucking weird!
They finally understood why the fishermen in Youshi didn't care about these rare animals, and why the saying of the sea god was so popular here. Who wouldn't kneel down and ask the sea god to forgive them when encountering such a weird thing? !
Of course, this is a special case for poachers. Under normal circumstances, if ordinary fishing boats accidentally enter or just pass by, this sea area will not change at all.
...
When she left the two islands and returned to Xingzhou Island, she received a call from the leader of the cultural and tourism department, who told her that she could prepare the materials for applying for the national 5A scenic spot first. Once the three-year period is up, the provincial cultural and tourism department will immediately recommend the Xingzhou Island scenic spot to the international evaluation agency.
Xingzhou Island was rated as a national 4A scenic spot in November 2021. According to relevant regulations, Xingzhou Island needs to wait three years after being rated as 4A before applying for 5A. If it hadn't taken advantage of the "one-year operation" loophole, Xingzhou Island would have had to start with 3A. There are not so many loopholes to be exploited for 5A, so it can't apply until the end of this year.
Although there is still half a year, the application materials are generally prepared in advance. The leaders of the cultural and tourism department think that Xingzhou Island has already met the evaluation conditions for 5A scenic spots, but it is restricted by the three-year period.
The earlier it is rated as 5A, the more the tourism signboard of the oil market will be louder!
Li Yaolin said: "I don't plan to apply for 5A rating so soon."
The leader of the cultural and tourism department was very surprised: "Why? Xingzhou Island is fully qualified!"
"The two islands of Linghang Island and Mingdeng Island are still under development, and the facilities are not yet complete. As part of the Xingzhou Island scenic area, they will definitely lower the rating, so I plan to wait until the development is complete before applying."
Leader: "..."
You are too real.
The leader advised her: "The work of 5A rating is not as simple as 4A rating. From the beginning of preparations to create a 5A scenic area to the actual rating, this process is very long, as fast as half a year, as slow as a year. The later you apply, the later it will be rated 5A. Moreover, the two islands can be completely closed for construction and stop receiving tourists, so that they will not be included in the rating review plan."
In fact, Li Yaolin also wanted to know what landmarks the system would reward if she was rated 5A. However, if the rating failed, she would have to wait a year before she could apply again. She didn't want to be a victim of the leader's eagerness for quick success, so she had to be cautious.
She said, "I'll discuss it with the employees before deciding!"
The leader couldn't force her, so he invited her to join the tourist attraction quality rating committee of Youshi. As the only island owner in Youshi, she created a history of turning Xingzhou Island into a nationally famous scenic spot in the shortest time. If she is not qualified to join the rating committee, who else is qualified?
It just so happens that the rating committee will be replaced next year. If she joins this year, she will still have the opportunity to be elected as the director next year. At that time, she will lead the rating of scenic spots in Youshi.
Li Yaolin: "..."
She said: "The leader is too generous. Unfortunately, I have too many things to do and I can't handle it. But I can recommend our Vice President Qi. He is more qualified for this job than me."
Isn't the island busy enough for her? Why does she want to lead others to rate other scenic spots? She is very picky about environmental requirements and service management. If she doesn't pass those scenic spots, wouldn't it offend people?
Xingzhou Island has already attracted jealousy, and she doesn't want to do such things that attract hatred.
But Vice President Qi is very suitable. He has professional insights, and as an employee working for her, the heads of other scenic spots will not hate him for this.
The leader nodded and said, "Xiao Qi is also very good, so it's settled... You should think about applying for 5A."
Li Yaolin has decided to wait until she is done with the National Day holiday and can spare some time to improve the service quality.
But since the leader mentioned the 5A application, she still had to symbolically hold a meeting and discuss it with the management.
The management was optimistic about Li Yaolin's concern about not being rated 5A: the country is supporting the tourism development of Xingzhou Island, so why would it block the 5A rating? Besides, the 4A rating of Xingzhou Island Development Industrial Park was almost up to standard, so it didn't make sense that it would not be approved now that the quality of the scenic spot has improved.
Li Yaolin said, "Then let's start the application work by the end of the year!"
Before the end of the year, the pier, resort and glass walkway of the new road should be completed, and Qianlai Tourism should also apply for the new route.
...
While the two new islands were under construction, the last phase of the cultural and creative industrial park was also completed. The office building in Zone D of the office area, the Ocean Culture Museum and Planetarium in the cultural exhibition area, and the last part of the commercial street were officially opened to the public.
Many tourists flocked in that day, among which the Ocean Culture Museum and Planetarium were the most popular, because Li Yaolin used 3D projection technology to reproduce the "sea fire" in the Ocean Culture Museum, so that some tourists who had not encountered the "sea fire" of Xingzhou Island could also feast their eyes.
Of course, after all, it is projection technology, which cannot be compared with the real "sea fire", but for many tourists, this is already quite interesting.
There is also a planetarium. In addition to the area where the astronomical telescope is placed, which is the most popular among tourists, there is also a hemispherical area, which is composed of hundreds of super-large seamless curved screens. When tourists enter, it is like being under the sky, and they can clearly see the scene of meteors passing by.
These meteors are not produced by special effects, but are videos made by astronomers using the time-lapse shooting method of the starry sky, which is a meteor shower observed and photographed on Xingzhou Island and then edited.
Therefore, tourists can see a corner of the scenery of Xingzhou Island while watching, and the sense of substitution is stronger.
There are many high-tech products used in these two pavilions, so they have become the favorite pavilions for children. Schools in the city... and even in neighboring Yang City and Wu City want to bring students here to visit during their spring and autumn outings or patriotic education activities.
Li Yaolin had no reason not to agree, but there were too many schools applying, so they needed to send their plans six months in advance, and Xingzhou Island would arrange the specific visiting time.
When Li Yaolin was getting busy, Fang Xinhua came to her one day and said, "It's really hard to see you now!"
Li Yaolin smiled and said, "It's not that it's hard to see me, but Mr. Fang is only free to come and see me now, right?"
They both knew how much the diving project in Xingzhou Island had earned, and Fang Xinhua used these dividends to increase his shares in the travel agency. The travel agency was more profitable in the tourism project of taking groups to the Cultural and Creative Industrial Park than to the Island and Sea Park. It also made a lot of money in the past two years. As a shareholder, wouldn't he benefit from it?
Not to mention, he also invested in other fishing clubs and surfing equipment stores. Relying on the traffic of the industrial park, those stores have never lost money since they opened.
Li Yaolin glanced at his belly... well, even his beer belly has grown a lot.
Noticing her gaze, Fang Xinhua subconsciously pulled in his belly and said awkwardly: "There are many social events, and it is inevitable for people to gain weight when they reach middle age."
Li Yaolin did not expose him, and asked: "So what project did Mr. Fang want to discuss this time?"
"Not talking about the project, but didn't you say before that you wanted to meet your predecessor... oh, no, the former island owner? Look, he also wants to meet you, so he asked me to be a middleman and ask if you have time."
The former island owner had thought about making an appointment with Li Yaolin himself, but now Li Yaolin is no longer someone who can be found by anyone who wants to find her. If it is to discuss business, the call will most likely be transferred to the assistant Little Mermaid by the housekeeper. If it is to discuss personal matters, it will be even more impossible to find her.
Li Yaolin pondered for a moment, remembering that when she first developed Xingzhou Island, she felt confused and uneasy about the future, so she especially wanted to know whether the previous island owner had any relationship with the Poseidon Holiday APP. Later, she became obsessed with development and making money, and gradually forgot about it. She didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to find her.
"When there is time." She said with a smile.
The author has something to say:
Little Mermaid: No wonder there have been more calls to meet the island owner recently. It turns out that it was the little housekeeper who did it!
Little Housekeeper: This was set by the island owner.
Little Mermaid: ╭(╯^╰)╮
