Chapter 3549

When Tian Xiaopeng learned that the central government would introduce housing price control policies, Su Xinghui had already learned this news long ago, and it was Gu Shanmin who personally called him to tell him.

Su Xinghui knew that this housing price control policy must have been something Gu Shanmin spent huge efforts to get the central government to issue.

However, Su Xinghui very much doubted whether this housing price control policy would be the same as those few times before, with thunder and little rain, and eventually nothing came of it. After a small drop in housing prices, they started to rise sharply again. He had seen too many such trajectories, whether in his previous life or this life, it was always like this, without exception.

Of course, Gu Shanmin's original intention was certainly good. He also hoped to be able to stabilize housing prices completely, and it was Su Xinghui who strongly suggested that he do so. But Su Xinghui knew that the power of the interest groups behind high housing prices was really too strong. Wanting to truly stabilize housing prices was almost an impossible task.

In any case, Su Xinghui still hoped to be able to do his best, and one day be able to completely control this runaway wild horse of housing prices.

Once this housing price control policy was introduced, it did have some immediate effects. The housing prices in several first- and second-tier cities fell in response, and the housing price per square meter fell by two or three hundred on that day, which made the common people see hope.

The housing prices in Baozhou City did not fall much, because the housing prices in Baozhou City had always been controlled very well and were not considered high, basically reflecting the true value of commercial housing in Baozhou City, so there was no room for any decline.

Su Xinghui's measures had not changed either. He still followed the established policies and implemented the ten major livelihood projects. This year, he invested more heavily in residential affordable housing.

Although Baozhou City's economic development speed was very fast, in any case, there were still those low-income families who needed such affordable housing. Therefore, the construction of affordable housing could not be sloppy at all. This related to the well-being of ordinary people and was also the responsibility of the municipal government.

This year, the expansion momentum of Baozhou City's four major industrial parks was relatively good, which made Baozhou City's secondary industry develop very fast. However, the development of Baozhou City's tertiary industry had not fallen behind at all.

The old city renovation work in Baozhou City's old urban area had basically been completed after several years of efforts. Many real estate development companies developed commercial streets and shopping malls in the old urban area, which made Baozhou City's commerce more and more prosperous.

Baozhou City's commercial development also had a very good foundation. Now more and more world-famous large companies were settling in Baozhou, making the purchasing power of Baozhou citizens very strong. Now many high-educated and high-quality talents were coming to Baozhou to work and settle down, and their shopping needs also needed to be met.

As of the end of 2005, the built-up area of Baozhou City had reached more than 50 square kilometers, having completed the five-year plan previously proposed by Su Xinghui in advance, and the permanent urban population of Baozhou City had also reached more than one million. With so many residents, their shopping needs certainly had to be met.
