afternoon.
The two first went to Nanjing Road in Shanghai, strolled along the street, ate snacks, and experienced the busy market in Shanghai.
Then, he went to the Friendship Store in Shanghai and bought a lot of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and jewelry. The big and small bags were all carried by bodyguards.
The two had dinner on the Bund and took a walk along the Huangpu River.
The two of them were talking and laughing, just like a couple.
Finally, the two returned to Heping Hotel at ten o'clock in the evening.
However, on the first floor, I ran into several Hong Kong tycoons including Henry Fok and Philip Tung, who were chatting with some middle-aged people. It seemed that they had known each other for a long time.
When Ho Ying-tung saw Bao Jun-yi and Liu Ru-yan entering the hotel, he waved to them.
"Ayi, come and sit down, I have something to ask you."
Liu Ruyan beside him whispered, "Junyi, I'm tired from playing today, so I'm going upstairs to rest first."
Bao Junyi nodded and said, "Then you go back and rest first. I'll come over and sit with you."
"Okay, go ahead."
Just as Liu Ruyan was about to turn around and go upstairs, Bao Junyi suddenly spoke.
"By the way, have you been in the Magic City recently?"
"Yes, I came here to do something. I won't be returning to Kyoto so soon. What's wrong?"
"Okay, after I'm done here, let's go shopping in other places in the Magic City together."
"Um."
Liu Ruyan lowered her head shyly, clasped her hands tightly, agreed in a low voice, and hurried upstairs.
Bao Junyi looked at Liu Ruyan who was fleeing in panic and thought she was quite cute.
However, while chatting with Ho Ying-tung and others, one of them was surprised when he saw Liu Ruyan, but his expression was quickly concealed.
The change in his expression did not attract anyone's attention.
At this time, Bao Junyi walked over and said, "Uncle Huo, it's so late, what are you still talking about?"
"Ayi, let me introduce you first. This is Mayor Liu of Mo City. He's here to see if we're used to living here, and he's also here to see you."
Bao Junyi was surprised and asked, "Mayor Liu, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Actually, there's nothing else important."
"This afternoon, we'll come over to get some of your ideas and whether you need any help from the municipal government."
"We all understand now, except you, so we'll wait for your return."
Bao Junyi said awkwardly, "Mayor Liu, I'm sorry. I met an acquaintance today and went out to play for a while."
Mayor Liu asked tentatively, "Mr. Bao, have you known that lady for a long time?"
"Yes, we met in Kyoto a few years ago. What happened?"
“No…no.”
"Mr. Bao, are you planning to invest in a resort hotel in Shanghai this time?"
Bao Junyi shook his head and said, "The Magic City is not suitable for building a resort hotel."
Mayor Liu looked frustrated. There is huge pressure to attract investment now. The higher authorities have given targets, but the investment in Shanghai is less than HK$100 million, and the end of the year is not far away. Alexander.
Suddenly, Bao Junyi's voice came again.
"However, during the Qingming Festival, Shanghai is positioned as a financial city and a window to the outside world."
"So, I plan to invest in Grade A office buildings and high-end villas in Shanghai."
Mayor Liu was surprised and asked, "Bao Sheng, where are you planning to invest?"
“How much money are you prepared to invest?”
Bao Junyi smiled and said, "I plan to invest in the Pudong area."
"Pudong?"
"Mr. Bao, did I hear you wrong? Did you mean Puxi?"
"Mayor Liu, you heard it right. It's Pudong, but it's near the Huangpu River."
Mayor Liu was surprised and said, "Bao Sheng, most of Shanghai's population and economy are now in Puxi. Pudong is basically wasteland and sparsely populated. Why would we invest there?"
"That's right. When I was strolling along the Huangpu River this afternoon, I looked across and saw it was a blessed land. So, I plan to invest in building office buildings and high-end villas there."
Mayor Liu was silent. He had originally wanted him to invest in Puxi, not Pudong. It sounded unreliable.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Then Bao Sheng, how much are you planning to invest?"
"It depends on the Shanghai area. 10 or 20 square kilometers is not too little, and 30 or 40 square kilometers is not too much."
Mayor Liu was shocked and asked, "How much?"
"Still 30 or 40, and the unit is still square kilometers?"
"Baosheng, do you know how old you are?"
"Of course, as long as the Magic City is willing to provide it, I will invest and build it according to the specifications of the area."
Mayor Liu rejected the idea outright: "30 or 40 square kilometers is impossible."
"However, 10 or 20 square kilometers can be considered."
"I don't know, how much money does Bao Sheng plan to invest?"
"My initial investment in Shanghai is HK$2 billion, involving Grade A office buildings, large-scale commercial plazas, and high-end villa complexes."
"2...2 billion Hong Kong dollars?"
"Yes, if the area is large enough, it may be more than that."
Bao Junyi knew that in his previous life, the Lujiazui Street on Blue Star covered an area of seven square kilometers, and the Lujiazui Financial and Trade Zone covered an area of 31 square kilometers. It was also the future financial and trade center of the Magic City.
If you plan to plan your Shanghai location in advance, Lujiazui will definitely be your first choice. In the future, it could cost hundreds of thousands of yuan per square meter, but it is still in short supply.
Mayor Liu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mr. Bao, your request involves a lot of issues. I must consult with my superiors. How about I give you a reply tomorrow?"
"No problem, just tell me if you're sure."
"Well, I won't disturb you all to rest. I'll leave first."
After Mayor Liu left.
Huo Yingdong was surprised and asked, "Ayi, why did you invest in Pudong?"
