Chapter 1775

In short, this project has many benefits, but he is worried about the coordination and capital problems of the project.

He is not worried about Hudong and Guangdong. In this concept, Hudong and Guangdong only need to build dozens of kilometers of mileage to connect to the Beijing-Hong Kong Highway. Each only needs to raise a few hundred million in capital, which is not a big deal for them.

Moreover, the vice governors in charge of Hudong and Guangdong are Lu Zhenghong and him, respectively. There is no problem in the coordination of these two provinces. To put it bluntly, he is worried about Jiangyou Province. Jiangyou Province has no money, and its cadre quality and style are not as good as Hudong and Guangdong provinces, so there may be some difficulties in coordination.

Thinking of this, Ke Zhifang asked: "Xinghui, how to solve the capital of Jiangyou Province? This project requires the most capital. Is Junchu responsible for the coordination work?"

Su Xinghui replied: "Regarding the capital problem of Jiangyou Province, half of it can be applied for loans from the World Bank after the project is established. I have already said these just now."

Ke Zhifang nodded. Now, more and more infrastructure projects in China are applying for loans from the World Bank. He has dealt with the World Bank many times, so he knows this very well.

"The other half, about 800 to 900 million in capital, if unexpected situations and price increases are calculated, it may rise to over 1 billion. This time we went to Jingcheng to do some preliminary work, and we have made some progress in applying for central government appropriations, which should be able to solve 200 to 300 million. For the remaining 700 million or so in capital, Jiangyou Province will raise a small part, and we will raise the rest through BOT financing."

Ke Zhifang is naturally very familiar with BOT financing. This is the way Su Xinghui often uses to let investors invest in infrastructure projects. In fact, in mainland China, this method was first adopted in Guangdong Province.

Ke Zhifang also knows a lot about some projects that Su Xinghui has engaged in. For example, the Shangjun Changjiang Bridge project uses this method, and several roads in Changshan also use this method, and they are all used very successfully.

It can be said that Su Xinghui is very proficient in this financing method, which is also what Ke Zhifang admires very much. A young cadre in the interior using BOT financing—even in Guangdong Province, few people are more proficient than him. This is also commendable.

Ke Zhifang nodded and said: "I almost forgot. You are a master of BOT financing. With your help, Junchu should not have too many problems in terms of capital."
