"It's not just about shipping our goods out, but also about bringing in good products from abroad. Our country is at a disadvantage when it comes to imports. If our province can develop in this area ahead of time, we will definitely not be worse than the port city."
hiss!
After listening to Ye Beiping's words, Jin Hai pondered them carefully and couldn't help but gasp.
By national standards at that time, there were really only a handful of world-class ports. If Ningcheng were developed and integrated with the world, its economic development would certainly be remarkable.
He wouldn't dare to make such a bold claim as surpassing the port city, but surpassing 80% of the cities in the country is a certainty.
Although they only exchanged a few words, Jin Hai realized that Ye Beiping was definitely not a simple young man.
I originally thought I wanted to learn some business methods so that others could learn from them and gradually boost Hangzhou's economy.
But unexpectedly, Ye Beiping dropped a bombshell right from the start.
The construction of a holistic perspective.
Jin Hai could understand from those few words that if he really succeeded as Ye Beiping said, his political achievements would be second to none in the country.
Transform Ningcheng into a world-class port to promote trade between countries.
The more I think about it, the more excited I get.
However, this raises the question of funding for building such a large port. Even if the project is reported to higher authorities, the national treasury will likely be stretched thin if the funding issue isn't resolved.
“Your idea is good, but all of this requires money. Right now, the whole country is barely able to feed itself, so where will the money to build these things come from?” Jin Hai knew he shouldn’t ask Ye Beiping this question, because it was a matter of concern to their government.
But I just can't help wanting to ask questions.
Ye Beiping was taken aback, not expecting that this question would be directed at him.
I was even a little speechless inside: If I could solve this problem, would you give me the position of Party Secretary?
However, Ye Beiping seriously considered the help Jin Hai had given him before.
Firstly, the economic rise in the previous life was also under such circumstances, starting with cooperation with some world-class companies to jointly create joint ventures.
Then comes the introduction of foreign investment.
However, Ye Beiping was somewhat resistant to this point. As a patriot, he naturally understood the consequences of introducing foreign investment, a point that had been proven in his previous life.
After careful consideration, Ye Beiping also came up with a solution.
"Secretary Jin, do you know any tycoons like Fok Ying-tung, Li Ka-shing, Li Shau-kee, Pao Yue-kong, and Cheng Yu-tung?"
Jin Hai was taken aback. Although he hadn't heard of all of them, he had heard of most of them.
Somewhat puzzled, he asked, "What does Hangzhou's economy have to do with them? They can't possibly set up a factory in Hangzhou, can they?"
As the provincial party secretary, he was certainly aware of Shenzhen's development, and many wealthy families in the port city had contributed to it. They valued Shenzhen's geographical location, which was also a way of supporting national development.
Ye Beiping smiled slightly as soon as he saw the difference between Jin Hai and Ye Beiping.
"Secretary Jin, try looking at it from a different perspective. What if we let them invest in building these ports?"
“This…” Jin Hai thought about it carefully and immediately shook his head: “No, absolutely not. If we build these ports for them, won’t they make all the money?”
These words just slipped out of his mouth.
Realizing something was amiss, he glanced at Ye Beiping but didn't offer much explanation. After all, Ye Beiping wouldn't go so far as to reveal today's conversation.
Ye Beiping was taken aback when he heard this, and thought to himself: "You're afraid they'll make money, but you also want them to invest. They're not stupid."
But he dared not voice what was in his heart.
Offending Peng Yuhuai has put him in a difficult position.
If he offended this man, even the old man Jin Aiguo might not stand on his side, given the deep bond between father and son. Ye Beiping wouldn't even dare to consider helping himself instead of his son.
I could only let out a deep breath and put my words more bluntly.
“Secretary Kim, what I mean is to have them invest in building these ports, but there is a time limit.”
"Oh? What do you mean by time limit?" Jin Hai raised an eyebrow, instantly becoming interested.
Seeing Jin Hai's attitude, Ye Beiping sighed helplessly. After all, this kind of investment-attracting method was probably unthinkable even in the 1980s, let alone in this era. It's no wonder that Jin Hai, this bigwig, didn't understand it.
“What I mean is, we can bring them over to build it, but we can divide it into ten, fifteen, or twenty years. Once that time is up, the port belongs to the country, not to any individual.”
