Chapter 809

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I'm afraid that after the Xiangjiang Qiudongfang Shopping Plaza is built and opens, the employees of the department store building will be laid off, which will give you a headache."

Everyone was stunned, and then they realized what he meant and burst into laughter.

Tang Guangwu said: "Chairman Zhou, if the department store building goes bankrupt competing with you, just sell the building to you, and then you can just accept the employees, right?"

"Right!" Meng Tong Huai Zhi pointed to the building, "If they can't beat you, it's better to hand it over to you."

Zhou Andong blinked, chuckled twice, and didn't pick up the conversation: "Let's go, let's go for a stroll ahead."

"Not going to the building for a tour?" Meng Tong Huai Zhi was quite surprised: "The department store building has introduced advanced foreign management experience, and the general manager is a returnee. To keep him, in addition to a high salary, we also gave him 5% of the shares."

Zhou Andong secretly rolled his eyes. No wonder they weren't afraid of his competition; it turned out there was a powerful creature that crawled out of the sea sitting in command.

"Looking at this situation, let's forget it."

"If you don't go, let's go."

Meng Tong Huai Zhi didn't insist anymore, because these people were too eye-catching. Inside were Zhou Andong's bodyguards, outside were police, and there were nearly twenty cars parked on the side of the road, Mercedes-Benz and police cars, with double flashers on.

A lot of people had gathered across the street, all looking over here. Some recognized the city's small-numbered cars and knew the city leaders were here, but didn't know what they were doing, pointing and discussing.

A group of people strolled around Bukui Avenue, Bukui North Avenue, and Bukui South Avenue, and then went to other places for a tour.

In the evening, many well-informed people knew that the chairman of the Yugong Group had come to Qiqihar for an inspection, and it was said that he was investing in a large shopping plaza.

On the morning of the second day, a negotiation was held in the conference room of the municipal government guesthouse. The preferential policy given by the city was three years of tax exemption and five years of half-reduction. This intensity was really awesome.

Zhou Andong had no doubts about this preferential treatment, mainly about the land. Zhou Andong took out a map of Qiqihar.

"I don't want the municipal government office building." Zhou Andong took a pen and drew a circle on the map, "The intersection of Bukui South Avenue and Longhua Road."

Meng Tong Huai Zhi took the map, and when the other city leaders saw it, the expressions on their faces became very wonderful.

Tu Hongyong, the director of the Municipal Planning Bureau, scratched his bald head: "Chairman Zhou, this circle of yours is at least 200,000 square meters. If you change to another place, it would definitely be no problem, but this street..."

Zhou Andong smiled: "If I want to do it, it's impossible to just build a shopping plaza, I also have to have a modern high-rise residential community."

In this era, as long as you hang the word 'modern', it is absolutely invincible. Everyone present's eyes lit up, and their hearts beat faster.

Tang Guangwu asked: "How many floors are you going to build?"

Zhou Andong said: "Two choices, it's up to you: 32-story high-rises, or 17-story small high-rises."

"Of course 32 stories!" Liu Lanyun blurted out, "Since we are going to build high-rise residences, of course we should build the highest ones."

Liu Liangang, the director of the Land Bureau, held a cigarette in his hand, his eyes fixed on the map.

"32-story residential buildings, the tallest building in our city is only 16 stories, right?"

Meng Tong Huai Zhi puffed on his cigarette: "The area you want is too large, I have to go back and hold a meeting to discuss it."

"Okay!"

Zhou Andong had considered it last night. Since Meng Tong Huai Zhi said he could choose, he naturally wouldn't be small-minded.

His plan was to build the shopping plaza and drive the surrounding business district, and the price of residential buildings would naturally go up.

Of course, the residential buildings would be completed in four phases, three years per phase, dragging on for more than ten years.

He made this decision for another very important reason.

Qiqihar is the second largest city in Heilongjiang Province and a famous heavy industrial city.

Even more than twenty years later, there are still many important state-owned enterprises standing tall.

Therefore, Qiqihar still has a level of consumption.

After the meeting, Meng Tong Huai Zhi wanted to leave two people to accompany Zhou Andong for a stroll, but was rejected by Zhou Andong.

In the afternoon, Meng Tong Huai Zhi held a class meeting. When he said what he had to say, the others were silent for a while.

After a while, Deputy Secretary Jiang Huijun took off her thick glasses and found a tissue to wipe the lenses.

"Modern high-rise residences, this is very attractive to everyone present, am I right?"

Others nodded with a smile. Deputy Mayor Liu Guangyao said: "The tallest building in our city is the Medicine Building, which is only 16 stories. And the residential building invested by the Yugong Group is actually going to be 32 stories. Who wouldn't be tempted?

Think about it, taking the elevator up and down, standing in front of the window, looking at the city scenery, what kind of feeling is that? It must be very beautiful."

"Yes!" Jiang Huijun said: "It's just that location, we want to build a prosperous commercial street. We don't know what the business model of the Xiangjiang Qiudongfang Shopping Plaza is. Is it necessary to introduce it if it's the same as the department store building?

After all, this location is not far from the department store building. Of course, if it were in other areas, let alone 200,000 square meters, even 500,000 square meters could be approved for him."

"Comrade Huijun's words hit the nail on the head." Meng Tong Huai Zhi smiled: "The Xiangjiang Qiudongfang Shopping Plaza's business model is different from the traditional department store building.

Counting the basement, there are six floors in total. The basement is a large commercial supermarket, which is a self-selection store. All goods are placed on shelves, and customers drag small carts to choose for themselves, and then check out at the entrance.

The first to third floors are electrical appliances, shoes, hats, clothing, and children's play areas, and international first-line brands will be stationed there. The fourth floor is a food court, gathering delicacies from all over the country. The fifth floor is a super cinema. As for how super it is, I don't know, anyway, it's a cinema."

Everyone was tempted by this. Jiang Huijun pondered for a moment: "I am indeed tempted now, especially the large commercial supermarket, I really want to know what it's like."

"Wanting to know what it's like is very simple." Meng Tong Huai Zhi pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, then picked up his teacup and took a sip, "The first large commercial supermarket in China will open in the capital in mid-August, and we can go to inspect and learn."

Jiang Huijun's eyes lit up: "Is it also invested by Zhou Andong?"

"Yes!" Meng Tong Huai Zhi nodded, "When the time comes, Huijun, you lead the team."

"Okay!" Jiang Huijun agreed without hesitation.

"Does anyone else have any opinions?" Zhao Jin asked.

Others shook their heads. Zhao Jin said: "That's good, now let's study the price of this land."

Meng Tong Huai Zhi scanned a few people: "The value of this land is around 300 million. In order to show our sincerity, the price must be pressed down. But to what extent, it must be a price that both sides can accept."

Zhao Jin pondered for a moment: "20 or 30 million must be conceded. Too little doesn't make much sense, and it will make people feel that we are too small-minded."
