Chapter 498: Wisdom Island spends 30 billion dollars, and Germination wants to fully enter the big entertainment industry?!
After talking about Tai Machinery and Electrical.
Gu Mingzhang immediately reported on the progress of planning and construction of the third mango super factory.
“After Mango Group spread the word about its plan to build a third super factory, major cities responded enthusiastically and contacted Mango Group as soon as possible, hoping to get the project implemented.”
This is conceivable.
With the continued sales of Mango M2 and Mango S1, Mango Auto, which was the first to achieve positive profitability, has established itself as a leader in new energy vehicles, at least in China.
Any city that wants to embrace the new energy industry cannot ignore the existence of Mango Group.
The most important thing is that the Mango Super Factory has already been established in Shanghai and Binhai City, proving its strong agglomeration effect on the new energy vehicle industry.
Wherever a mango super factory is opened, related supporting companies will follow.
Therefore, as long as we strive to establish the Mango Super Factory and as long as the relevant supporting facilities and supporting policies can keep up, I believe that a new energy automobile industrial park will soon be supported.
Who wouldn't be greedy?
For first-tier cities like Shanghai City and Binhai City, the new energy vehicle industry base is very important, but for second-tier cities, it is simply a huge piece of cake.
It is enough to support the city’s development momentum in the next five to ten years.
It cannot be valued enough.
Therefore, in just the first round of preliminary contacts, each city did not hide anything and offered generous terms that they could afford——
For example, proactively provide bank loan support.
Another example is the promise to return the land transfer fees to Mango Group in the form of subsidies.
Another example is the preferential tax policy of “no tax for three years and half tax for five years”.
The above three items are basically the biggest discounts that each city can provide. Under the background of crazy involution, the preferential conditions offered by each other are very different.
So it's hard to stand out.
In the final analysis, it still depends on the attitude of Mango Group.
To this end, investment recruiters in various cities are also showing their talents and are trying to find ways to close the relationship with the Mango Group. Some people have even entrusted the relationship to Zhang Shuo, a budding boss.
But from the perspective of Mango Group——
Neither loan support nor tax incentives are priorities in selecting the location of the Mango Super Factory. They are mainly based on reasonable considerations of industrial distribution strategy.
To put it more bluntly——
The city’s location advantages and related supporting facilities are Mango’s priority.
According to normal rules, cities with higher investment enthusiasm tend to be more outstanding in terms of location and transportation, policy support, factor protection, business environment, etc.
otherwise.
The Mango Super Factory will not be established in Shanghai City and Binhai City successively.
"After preliminary contact and screening, there are still three places left: Jiangxia, Zhongwucheng and Longcheng. How to choose specifically depends on your opinion, chairman." Gu Mingzhang reported.
Needless to say, Jiangxia has always been a popular city for investment.
Dragon City may be a bit unfamiliar.
Longcheng, located in Lingxi Province, borders Lingnan and is also one of the five major automobile cities in China. More than half of China's fuel vehicle brand factories are gathered in the area.
The supporting facilities for the related automobile industry are extremely complete.
Investing in Longcheng is also in line with the strategy of Sprout Holdings to move its industry to the central and western regions and underdeveloped regions.
Just.
Longcheng's advantage, in a sense, has become a disadvantage for Mango Group. After all, the supporting facilities for fuel vehicles and the supporting facilities for new energy vehicles are actually two different concepts.
In addition, Dragon City is not far from Binhai City, so it does not fit well with the industrial layout of Mango Group.
Therefore, Longcheng was eliminated by Zhang Shuo first.
"In view of Longcheng's sincerity, Mango Group may consider investing in and building a medium-sized supporting branch factory in Longcheng," Zhang Shuo added with a smile.
"OK!"
Gu Mingzhang nodded and took notes, "What about Jiangxia and Zhongwucheng?"
Within the Mango Group, they actually prefer Jiangxia, because Jiangxia is located in a strategic area in the middle of the country. Not only is it a thoroughfare for nine provinces, it has convenient transportation, but the related automobile supporting facilities are also very complete.
It is very consistent with Mango Group’s positioning for the third super factory.
"As for Zhongwu City..."
Just the opposite of Longcheng, Zhongwucheng, located in Jiangbei Province, is not very famous in the field of fuel vehicles, but it is one of the most active cities in embracing new energy vehicles.
And it's also very famous.
You must know that the five cities with the highest concentration of new energy industries in the original time and space are Binhai City, Magic City, Jingshi, Jiangxia and Zhongwu City.
Zhongwucheng is also the only second-tier city among the top ten, which shows that Zhongwucheng pays attention to the new energy field.
In the original time and space, from resource endowment to industrial development scale, Zhongwucheng has formed a new energy industry closed loop of "power generation, energy storage, transmission, and application" and strives to build a new energy city.
Therefore, in addition to attracting vehicle manufacturing companies such as BYD and Ideal, Zhongwucheng has also attracted power battery companies such as Linde New Energy and Beterui to settle there.
The agglomeration effect of the new energy industry is gradually emerging.
There is even a joke on the Internet that the new energy industry depends on East China, and the new energy industry in East China depends on Jiangbei.
Jiangbei New Energy takes a fancy to Wucheng.
If Mango Group bets on Zhongwucheng now, it will undoubtedly be a good time.
"I think it's better to choose Wu Cheng."
Between Jiangxia and Zhongwucheng, Zhang Shuo ultimately chose the latter.
In addition to the huge development potential of Zhongwucheng, it is also taken into account that Ma Ya has invested in many projects in Jiangxia, and even the headquarters of Daosui Group is located in Jiangxia.
It is necessary to say that we need to open up new territories.
Once the third mango super factory is built in Zhongwucheng, the investment in Jiangbei Province will cover Jianye, Haizhou and Zhongwucheng.
It can be regarded as truly completing the investment map in Jiangbei Province, an important economic town.
"good."
Gu Mingzhang had no objection to the big boss's decision.
………
Next.
Executive Vice President Jiang Yue focused on reporting on the progress of the smart island project.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Last week, the group has purchased the entire 800,000 square meters of land in and around the Smart Island for 6.8 billion. Next,
A design tender will be held globally."
Although the land price of 6.8 billion is high, with the current financial strength of Germination, the full payment can be made directly.
There is no need to take out land for mortgage in the future.
According to the analysis of the project feasibility report, including land acquisition funds, the total investment in the smart island project is expected to be around 30 billion, with a development scale of nearly 2 million square meters.
It includes 1.5 million square meters of research and development space, 270,000 square meters of dormitories, 120,000 square meters of commercial space, 10,000 square meters of technology exhibition hall, and 10,000 square meters of data and intelligent control center.
It is planned to meet the office and accommodation needs of 80,000 to 100,000 people.
Absolutely super generous.
"The problem now is that after learning about the launch of the Smart Island project, two real estate companies, Wangda and Wangke, took the initiative to contact us as soon as possible, hoping to represent the project." Jiang Yue said.
After canceling Sprout Real Estate, Sprout Holdings is no longer able to operate real estate projects on its own.
You need to cooperate with a real estate company.
The Smart Island project is undoubtedly a very eye-catching super project.
"Wanda, Wangke..."
Zhang Shuo quickly figured out that the two companies were probably drunkards who didn't care about the wine.
After all, whether it is Wangda or Wangke, with their scale, it goes without saying that they are eager to come to the door for a smart island project.
Agent development is not very profitable, I'm afraid there is a deeper purpose.
Wanda may be simpler. It just wants to continue to close the relationship with Suiya by helping to develop the smart island project, so as to explore the possibility of cooperation with Suiya in other fields.
The decline of Wanda's e-commerce project, in a sense, made Wanda pay more attention to its sprouts.
Neither Qiandu nor Tengda can do it!
As for Wangke, he has been caught in the vortex of "barbarian invasion" recently. He should have been busy with himself, but at this time, he took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Germination.
The meaning is even more worthy of careful consideration.
They just want to take this opportunity to get closer to Mo Ya and invite Mo Ya to join in to resist the barbarians.
"Don't rush to settle it yet."
Zhang Shuo thought for a moment and said: "Anyway, there are still a few months until the design drawings are released."
He also wanted to wait and see the Wangbao battle again.
Three or four years ago, Zhang Shuo had already announced that sprouts would not enter the real estate industry. For this reason, he even took the initiative to speculate on sprouting real estate companies that are responsible for the development and operation of its properties.
Even if we say that based on the size of the various commercial properties currently held by Buoyuan, it is actually equivalent to the development scale of a medium-sized or even large commercial real estate company.
But the situation will change as time and circumstances change.
After making the decision to transform Sprout Holdings into an asset management company, Sprout Holdings will not personally get involved in real estate development, but that does not mean that it cannot invest in real estate companies.
Although this industry is full of pitfalls and even thunderstorms, Zhang Shuo has the foresight to know that among many real estate companies, Wangke is considered to be relatively high-quality.
Moreover, there have been no thunderstorms, and operations have always been relatively stable.
It is considered a good investment target.
Investing in real estate companies, in addition to long-term stable returns, can also achieve strategic cooperation in project development, such as the current smart island project.
This will save a lot of mistrust between each other.
But then again, the real estate industry has its own special characteristics and is relatively sensitive. If Mo Yao acts too eagerly, he may leave an "ugly" impression to the outside world.
So be careful.
Even if you say you have to be both responsible and upright, you still have to keep your mentality stable, and hang on to Wangke. When Wangke really can't handle it anymore, let Wangke, or someone else, take the initiative to ask Mei Ya to end.
By then, no matter how reluctant the sprout is, it will not be true.
Zhang Shuo could only keep such a plan secretly in his heart and could not speak it outright at the meeting.
Fortunately, Zhang Shuo had absolute authority. If he said it would be discussed later, Jiang Yue naturally had no objection.
There’s no rush anyway!!!
………
At the end of the meeting, Senior Vice President Lu Qi reported something.
"Chairman, Qiandu took the initiative to contact Qinghe Group and asked if Qinghe Group was interested in expanding its shareholding ratio in Qiyi Video. If interested, Qiandu is willing to transfer its holdings to Qinghe Group
Partial equity interest in Qiyi Video.”
"Yeah?"
Zhang Shuo was a little surprised, "Didn't Qinghe Group just participate in Qiyi Video's Series B financing?"
"It's a little strange."
Lu Qi explained: "I also asked people to inquire from the side. It seems that Qiandu has encountered a lot of difficulties in operation. I guess I also want to use this method to extract part of the cash flow while deepening Qiyi's business."
The strategic cooperation between Video and Qinghe Group has subsequently increased the valuation of Qiyi Video.”
As Weixin becomes the largest social platform in China, Qinghe Group becomes more and more popular.
Even Qiandu came to the door again and again.
"Is it difficult to operate?" Zhang Shuo's eyes flashed, and he asked subconsciously: "Has Qiandu not disclosed its second quarter financial statements until now?"
In my impression, it was at this stage that Qiandu's performance was lower than outside expectations, causing the stock price to fall.
"It hasn't been disclosed yet." Lu Qi nodded affirmatively.
"That's it."
Zhang Shuo no longer had any doubts and said with a smile: "In this case, we can air Qiandu's proposal first and then discuss it after Qiandu discloses its financial report."
"I think so too."
Lu Qi was convinced, and then asked, "Chairman, if, I mean, if Qiandu still hopes to reach a relevant transaction with Qinghe Group after disclosing its financial report. Do you want Qinghe to take it?"
No wonder Lu Qi asked this question.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As we all know, Zhang Shuo has always kept a respectful distance from the big entertainment business. From the earliest acquisition of Xiami Music to the later development of live broadcast, short video and other businesses,
Subconsciously bypassed the video website.
The development of Xiami music has always been very Buddhist.
Including online literature and other areas, Qinghe Group has never been involved in it.
The only time I showed a positive attitude was when I was "forced" to invest in Qiyi Video and Tenda Video in order to develop the short video business and remove obstacles in the copyright field.
"If the price is right, then of course you can consider it."
Unknowingly, as Bu Ya continued to grow bigger and stronger, Zhang Shuo himself was also being changed. The biggest change was that he no longer had mysophobia and no longer had any investment restricted areas.
Whether it is the earliest Internet finance, or the current real estate, large entertainment.
You can plug it in.
Of course, participation in Sprout Ya is participation, and Zhang Shuo has always insisted on the most basic bottom line. The purpose of participating is to use Sprout's strength to improve its ecology.
It won't be as bad and chaotic as the original time and space.
For example, the current Weizhong Group is a model for standardizing Internet financial business, and has solved the practical loan needs of many small and micro enterprises, including some people in need.
As long as the review is strict and the operations are standardized, Internet finance itself is also an innovation.
After all, you can’t give up eating because of choking.
Let’s go back to the big entertainment field. Zhang Shuo had always hated this area because the sprouts at that time were not strong enough to influence the business decisions of the three giants.
Since nothing can be changed, Zhang Shuo simply ignores it, which feels like "giving up on oneself."
It's different now.
Among the three giants, except Ahri who is still jumping around, Tengda and Qiandu have not restored the glory of time and space, especially Tengda, who is about to fall below Qiandu.
Under such circumstances, it becomes easier for Zhang Shuo to achieve his goal of rectifying the entertainment industry.
At least there is a basis for implementation.
The olive branch offered by Qiandu at this time may be regarded as the first step for Qinghe Group to fully intervene in the field of large-scale entertainment and complete the reconstruction of the large-scale entertainment ecology.
