Chapter 470 A huge investment of 30 billion yuan
8 o'clock in the evening.
Sui Feng Hotel.
After having a full meal and a few drinks, Zhang Guangzong looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back first."
Deng Shirong said, "Uncle Zhang, I'll ask someone to take you there."
Zhang Guangzong smiled and said, "No need to send me off. I will walk back slowly at this time, just like others go out for a walk after eating."
Deng Shirong nodded and said, "Okay, let's continue drinking at noon tomorrow."
Zhang Guangzong responded, then said hello to Zhu Junjie and Deng Yunzhen, and walked leisurely towards the new village.
Suifeng Hotel serves lunch and dinner, not breakfast or midnight snacks, so at this time, there are basically no diners coming, and only one table of diners is left.
Deng Yunzhen made a pot of tea and poured a cup for her father. She said, "Dad, you just drank a lot of wine. Drink more tea to sober you up."
Deng Shirong hummed, looked at his eldest son-in-law and said, "Junjie, how is your work recently?"
Zhu Junjie smiled and said, "The county leaders all know that I am your son-in-law, and the team left by Uncle Song also fully supports me. My work can be said to be going very smoothly."
Deng Shirong took a sip of tea and said, "I came here this time because I have something important to discuss with you. This is not only related to the development of our hometown, but if it works well, it will help you move up a level, which is absolutely no problem."
Allen Chu was shocked when he heard this, and asked, “Dad, what big move are you going to make in your hometown?”
Deng Yunzhen also perked up and looked at her father.
Deng Shirong said: "I plan to build the largest film and television city in the country in my hometown. The total investment is expected to be more than 30 billion. It requires the full support of the county government. Once it is completed, it can drive the rapid economic development of the entire Bobai County."
Zhu Junjie and Deng Yunzhen were both stunned when they heard this.
An investment of 30 billion yuan might seem insignificant or even not even be ranked in the list in future megacities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
But in today's Guangxi, even in the capital Nanning, it is a heavy investment, not to mention in a county-level city like Bobai, which is simply nuclear-bomb-level.
Zhu Junjie said excitedly: “Dad, if the 30 billion investment is reported to the city leaders, I guess the city leaders will not know how happy they are.”
Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Of course they are happy. This is a political achievement that comes to them. After all, Bobai is a county under the jurisdiction of Yulin. The achievements made are naturally due to the city leaders. However, this credit is not given in vain. The leaders need to provide some support."
Zhu Junjie said: "Dad, just tell me what kind of support you want, and I will do my best to help you get it."
Deng Shirong said: "It is more or less difficult to build this huge film and television city in our hometown, mainly because of the lack of transportation and various supporting industrial chains. But who can blame me for being a Bobai person and wanting to build my own hometown?
Therefore, in order to avoid falling too far behind in transportation, we need the support of counties, cities and even provinces to plan and build highways, railways and airports.
But then again, you can't eat fat in one bite. The airport can wait, but the highways leading to Bobai County and the capital of Nanning must be arranged as soon as possible, and the railway should also be arranged as soon as possible.
As for the supporting industrial chains, some of them can be handled by our film and television city itself, while some require official intervention.
In addition, building a film and television city will require at least tens of thousands of acres of land, and the government must also step in to help us collect the land we need as soon as possible.
Of course, if we want to build it into the largest film and television base in the country, we still need to overcome many difficulties, which can be solved slowly in the process of development. As long as the province can agree to these conditions and provide some policy support, I will take the lead in investing.
If you don’t even agree to such a simple condition, then this investment will probably not be successful.”
Investing in your hometown to build a film and television base like Hengdian is indeed full of difficulties, but there are opportunities. As long as the most important problems of transportation and supporting industrial chains can be solved, other problems will be easier to solve.
Hengdian in the previous life was not so awesome from the beginning.
In 2000, in order to expand its scale and attract more crews to participate in filming in Hengdian, Hengdian made a very wise decision. That is, the film and television city not only waived the venue rental for all film and television shooting scenes, but also provided a series of supporting services from scene construction, props production, accommodation, etc.
As a result, more and more film crews came here due to its fame, and the popularity of Hengdian Film and Television City soared. Its ability to attract money was in sharp contrast to the desertedness of many domestic film and television bases.
The greater flow of personnel has driven the rapid development of related industries in Hengdian, and the film and television city has gradually achieved industrialized operation.
Deng Shirong intends to implement this free strategy from the very beginning, exempting him from venue rental and providing the crew with a series of supporting services such as scene construction, prop production and accommodation.
With such good conditions, why wouldn't the crew come here to shoot?
The Deng Group can even set up a film and television company to specifically participate in the investment of some film and television dramas. Before Deng Shirong came into contact with online novels, the only way to pass the time was to watch TV. He has an impression of all the popular TV series and movies.
You can invest with your eyes closed and you won’t lose money.
It would be only natural for the company to invest in TV series and movies and shoot them at its own film studio.
Moreover, the Deng Group can also invest in cinemas to strengthen its voice in the film and television industry. With such a multi-pronged approach, why should the film and television city not be able to develop? In short, money can really solve 99.999999% of the problems in building a film and television city. The remaining 0.000001% cannot be solved because there is not enough money, and more money must be spent.
Once the film and television city becomes bigger and stronger, it will naturally bring about the effect of industrial clusters, and it will be a natural thing for it to replace Hengdian as the world's largest film and television shooting base.
As the county magistrate, Zhu Junjie naturally understood the importance of transportation and supporting industrial chains. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Dad, I understand. I will call a meeting of county leaders tomorrow morning to unify our thoughts first, and then report to the city leaders and explain the requirements of your Deng Group to them. I believe the leaders will do their best to fight for it."
…
The next day.
Zhu Junjie took action. First, he held a meeting with the county leaders. After he put forward the 30 billion film and television city investment plan, the other leaders were blown away on the spot.
In this era, only the frontier cities of reform and opening up would have this level of investment. A place like Bobai in Guangxi would never dare to dream of attracting 30 billion yuan in investment.
Therefore, Zhu Junjie easily unified their thoughts, and then went to Yulin with the county magistrate to report to the leaders.
When the city leaders heard this, they also attached great importance to it and were eager to immediately agree to all the requirements raised by the Deng Group so that the investment could be implemented as soon as possible.
After all, these demands are reasonable. In addition, the highway has already been planned. Now in order to retain the 30 billion investment, it is very necessary to tilt the highway towards Bobai.
Unfortunately, even they have no say in matters such as building highways.
Therefore, after the city leaders reached a consensus, they reported the matter to the provincial government and asked the provincial leaders to make the final decision.
After hearing the report, the provincial leaders also attached great importance to it. The leader in charge of transportation personally came forward and made an appointment to talk with the chairman of Deng Group.
After receiving the news, Deng Shirong took a bus back to Nanning and talked with his supervisor for several hours.
Outsiders have no idea what they talked about during those hours. Anyway, after the conversation, Deng Shirong set up a new film and television company and officially launched the super-large project of the film and television city.
Not long after, the province approved the construction projects of the Shuangwang to Nanning and Shuangwang to Bobai expressways.
In fact, many sections of the highway from Shuangwang to Nanning are already under construction. Now it is just a temporary addition to allow the highway to connect to Shuangwang Town.
However, the expressway from Shuangwang to Bobai is a newly planned expressway.
As for railways, we can only say that they are already in the planning stage, but it will probably take a long time before the results are available.
…
Nanning Architectural Design Institute.
Dean Huang’s office.
After greeting each other, Dean Huang handed over a cigarette and said with a smile: "Boss Deng, what big business do you want to take care of for us?"
Deng Shirong took the cigarette and smiled slightly, "President Huang, this is really a big deal. It's much bigger than all the projects we've worked on before combined."
As soon as these words came out, Dean Huang was immediately excited and asked excitedly: "Boss Deng, are you serious?"
It's no wonder that he was excited. Over the past decade or so, their Architectural Design Institute and Mr. Deng have really collaborated on many projects, including the design of the Deng's Ancestral Hall in Naye, the design, construction and decoration of the Wuyue Square in Nanning, the design and decoration of the seven-story building in the Naye Deng's Community in Bobai, the design of the Naye Deng's villa complex, the design of the Naye Hospital, the design of the Nanning Deng's Group headquarters, the design of the Nanning Snack Street, and so on.
It was these projects that made Mr. Deng the most distinguished customer of their architectural design institute.
As a result, the business brought by Mr. Deng now is much larger than all these projects combined. This is simply a blessing from heaven.
Deng Shirong laughed and said, "Of course it's true. How could I joke with Dean Huang about such a thing?"
"That's great, Mr. Deng, you are really a great benefactor to our design institute!"
Dean Huang used a lighter to help Deng Shirong light his cigarette, and asked excitedly, "I wonder what you are going to build, Mr. Deng?"
Deng Shirong said: "Our Deng Group plans to invest about 30 billion to build the largest film and television base in the country. We need to build buildings such as Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street, Qin Palace, Qingming Shanghe Tu, Ming and Qing Palaces, etc. In short, our film and television city will build all the scenic spots commonly used in film and television dramas."
Dean Huang was so happy that he almost fainted when he heard this.
Invest 30 billion to build the largest film and television base in the country.
Just from this sentence, one can imagine how huge a complex of buildings would need to be built.
Mr. Deng was indeed right. All the projects they had collaborated on in the past combined were far less than this super project.
If their architectural design institute can reach a cooperation with the other party, then it will really take off.
After the excitement, Dean Huang immediately said: "Mr. Deng, we have cooperated on so many projects and it has always been very pleasant. If you give this project to our architectural design institute, we will definitely live up to your expectations and build this film and television base for you."
Deng Shirong smiled and said, "I believe in your strength and sincerity, but I am a little pressed for time in the construction of this film and television base. If we reach a cooperation, you must go all out and design it for me as quickly as possible, and then build the attractions I need for me."
Dean Huang solemnly promised: "Don't worry, President Deng, our Architectural Design Institute will suspend all cooperation with the outside world and go all out to build this film and television base."
"That's good. Next, let's talk about the specific cooperation."
"Okay, Mr. Deng, you say..."
…
The county government unified its thinking, and after obtaining the imperial sword, its work efficiency was astonishing.
After signing a land acquisition contract with the Deng Group, they organized personnel to begin large-scale acquisition of mountains and fields within the area planned by Deng Shirong.
Because the young wives of the Naye Deng family had previously returned to their parents' homes and told everyone about the benefits of Naye Deng's building of the film and television city, the government's land acquisition work progressed extremely smoothly and was completed in less than a month.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
In this wave, families with more land earned more than 200,000 yuan, and families with less land basically had an income of over 10,000 yuan.
This expropriation price is still relatively reasonable. In the previous life, more than 20 years later, when Baiping Industrial Park was expropriating land, families with more land earned more than 2 million yuan, and families with less land basically had an income of more than 100,000 yuan.
The current land prices cannot naturally be compared with those in more than 20 years.
The collection price given by the Deng Group is already very generous.
As a result, the economic strength of the villages included in the collection area suddenly increased and was no longer the same as before.
The other villages that were not included in the tax collection scope were drooling with envy. However, some of these villages also had daughters who married into the Naye Deng family, and they all knew that once the film and television city was built, it would be a great thing for their villages.
Even if they cannot enjoy the benefits of land expropriation, this film and television city is built at their doorstep. As long as it can attract hundreds of thousands of outsiders as estimated by Naye Deng, they should be able to make money whether they rent out the houses or do any other business.
When the Dragon Boat Festival arrived, the first attraction of the film and television city, Guangzhou Street, started construction under the attention of the public.
The reason why Guangzhou Street was built first was mainly to cut off the idea of Hengdian.
In 1996, due to the lack of location for the filming of the historical film "The Opium War", Hengdian Group seized this opportunity, invited the director of the film to Hengdian to shoot, and invested heavily in building the first film and television base of Hengdian Film and Television City - Guangzhou Street.
Now, Deng Shirong wants to build this Guangzhou Street first, so that there will be no shortage of locations for the filming of "The Opium War" next year. After missing this opportunity, Hengdian Group may not have the idea of establishing a film and television base.
…
Villa complex.
Deng Sibao came to give rice dumplings to the Ninth Ancestor.
After Deng Shirong accepted it, he asked, "Abao, how is your skating rink going? When will it open?"
Deng Sibao said excitedly: "Nine ancestors, the skating rink has been built, and preparations for opening are being made these two days. It is planned to open the day after tomorrow."
Deng Shirong said, "Then do it well. It just so happens that the other villages have made a lot of money from the land acquisition this time. When your skating rink opens, young people who are interested will come to play. Then your business will definitely be booming."
Deng Sibao also showed an expectant expression and said with longing: "I hope so. In order to build this skating rink, it cost me a lot of money. If the business is booming, it won't take long for me to recover the cost."
Deng Shirong took the cigarette holder next to him and said, "Abao, this skating rink is full of young men and women. Young people tend to be hot-tempered and will clash with any friction. You should pay attention to this aspect and don't make the skating rink a mess."
Deng Sibao nodded and said, "Okay Jiuzu, I will pay attention."
Deng Shirong pulled out a handful of tobacco and stuffed it into the pipe, while asking with a smile: "A Bao, I heard that you are dating a nurse in our hospital?"
Deng Sibao said a little embarrassedly: "That's true."
"Where is this girl from?"
"From Longtan."
Deng Shirong lit up the tobacco and took a few puffs before saying, "When marrying a wife, the most important thing is to look at her character. Generally speaking, if the wife has a good character, the family will be more harmonious. If the wife has a bad character, the family will often have a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days. You must pay attention to this."
Deng Sibao replied: "I know that. I think she has a good temper. She shouldn't be a difficult person to get along with."
Deng Shirong asked, "Have your parents met her?"
Deng Sibao smiled and said, "I have seen her. In fact, the house she is renting now is our old house."
Deng Shirong continued to stuff tobacco into his pipe: "That's a coincidence, what do your parents think?"
Dunsbao said: "They also thought it was okay after watching it."
Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Since your parents have no objection, I will wait to drink at your wedding!"
Deng Sibao chuckled and said, "No hurry. I'm still young and not even old enough to register. Let's get along for a while before we talk about getting married."
Deng Shirong warned: "It doesn't matter if you register your marriage later, but you must not take advantage of her when you are with her now, lest you despise her and kick her away. How can she get married then?"
In later generations, boyfriends and girlfriends would basically have sex before marriage, and rarely would they wait until the wedding night.
In later generations, people became more open-minded. Even if a woman is pregnant, there are still many men willing to take the woman's offer, let alone if she is not a virgin. Therefore, having sex before marriage is not a big deal at all.
But now it is the 1990s, and people in rural areas still care a lot about this aspect. Unless the family is very poor and it is difficult to get married, no one is willing to pick up a broken shoe.
Therefore, Deng Shirong had to remind people not to ruin someone's chastity and then not marry her, which would be a real bad thing.
"I see!"
Deng Sibao smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "Nine Ancestors, my skating rink will open the day after tomorrow. Do you want to come and play?"
Deng Shirong laughed and said, "Why would an old man like me go and join in the fun with you young people?"
Deng Sibao smiled and said, "This skating is still very fun. Besides, Jiuzu, you don't look old!"
Deng Shirong lit up the tobacco and took a few more puffs, then put the pipe aside and said, "I can go and take a look, but I'm too old to learn skating. As for these skates, if you have time, prepare a dozen pairs of different sizes for me. When my grandchildren and nephews come back during the summer vacation, I can let them go to your skating rink to play."
The public shoes at the skating rink can be worn by anyone, and no one knows whether the other person has athlete's foot. So Deng Shirong must prepare brand new special shoes for his grandchildren. In the future, when they go to the skating rink to play, they can wear their own shoes so that they can have fun and feel comfortable.
Deng Sibao readily agreed, "No problem, Jiu Zu, I have prepared hundreds of pairs of skates, all brand new. I will bring you a dozen pairs tonight."
…
Two days later.
The first ice skating rink in Shuangwang Town officially opened.
This ice rink has been attracting young people in the tribe since the day it was built.
Now that the skating rink has been completed and opened, Deng Sibao also spread the news in advance, which naturally attracted tribesmen who were interested in skating.
So, after breakfast, everyone rushed to the A-Po Skating Rink.
At this time, disco was playing at the Abao Skating Rink. The high volume and dynamic rhythm made people feel very intoxicated. The young people in the tribe rushed to the scene and couldn't help but shake to the rhythm of the music.
Ice skating is not something that has become popular in recent years. In fact, as early as 1879, there was a record of an ice rink opening in Shanghai in the Shenbao newspaper.
This ice skating rink in Shanghai was located on the upper floor of a warehouse next to Tianxiang Foreign Company on Guangdong Road at that time. The rink provided four-wheel roller skating entertainment, and the daily passenger flow ranged from dozens to hundreds of people.
Then the sport gradually flourished.
By the 1980s, skating had become popular throughout the country, and national competitions were held in 1982, 1987, and 1990.
The young people in the tribe often stay in the county town, so they are naturally familiar with ice skating.
It’s not true that all young people have been to the ice skating rink, but at least most of them have been there, and more than once or twice.
Ice skating is a trend for young people, and you lead me and I lead him, and we just start playing like this.
Because most of the young people knew how to skate, they paid the registration fee, put on their skates, and started skating to the dynamic music in the skating rink. The veterans started skating right away, and they were having a blast! When Deng Shirong arrived, there were probably hundreds of people playing in the skating rink, and the number was still increasing.
