Chen Ke talked eloquently on the stage and answered questions from BBC reporters for several minutes, until the organizer expressed that they wanted to control the time and asked him to go to the press room next to him to speak slowly, and left the main press room to other media friends and other questions.
.
However, this is no longer important, because the person who asked this question is already agitated and just wants to be quiet for the time being. Even if they continue to occupy the main press room, it will only increase embarrassment and high blood pressure.
Shi Minglun, the senior executive of Swire Group's Southeast Asia subsidiary in charge of this project, felt that he was in a daze and his steps were as if he were in the clouds.
From what Chen Ke said later, he had already received several pieces of bad news.
“Because Lanfang South City is closer to the cross-sea bridge and fresh water pipelines connecting East Malaysia’s Sarawak state, water plants and sewage treatment plants covering the whole of Lanfang will be built in the south of the city in the future.”
"Considering that Lanfang Oilfield will officially enter full-scale production in two months, relevant refineries have also been built on the eastern islands. In the future, a heavy oil thermal power plant sufficient to supply the country's electricity will be set up in the south of Lanfang City. Asphalt and heavy oil separation
plant, and two substations.”
"But we at Lanfang will definitely ensure that they are constructed in accordance with the highest environmental standards to ensure that the above facilities will never have any adverse impact on the island's tourism environment."
“In addition, considering that during the previous financial crisis in Southeast Asia, the Sarawak River freshwater diversion project signed between my country and Sarawak was large-scale, domestic residents and tourists will not be able to consume that much water for at least ten years.
Therefore, in the future, our country plans to vigorously develop the high-end cash crop plantation industry on the south side of the main island and the plains and hilly areas southeast of the oil, gas and water areas, taking advantage of Lanfang's unique geographical environment to absorb excess freshwater production capacity and bring more value to international tourists.
The specialty you’re looking forward to.”
The latest statements from the infrastructure planning department are like a sharp knife, going straight into the hearts of land hoarding speculators 2.
Agriculture on the main island of Lanfang was not developed before, not because there was not enough land, but because it was located on an island and did not have enough water storage facilities.
The latitude here is only 1.5 degrees, almost on the equator, so the temperature must be very hot and humid, and the precipitation is very abundant. It is easily 2000 millimeters per year. But the problem is that the terrain of the island is often high in the middle and low-lying on the shore.
, so in addition to the fact that tropical rainforests can better absorb and store water, if it is turned into farmland, the rainwater will drain away quickly when it falls, and it will be difficult to engage in agriculture if it cannot be stored.
If we directly dig many large reservoirs, it would be uneconomical just for farming. Therefore, the scale of agricultural development in Lanfang has always been restricted, and the main reason why civilians focus on fishery is the problem of water sources and irrigation.
In Sarawak, which is dozens of nautical miles to the south and across the coast, this problem does not exist. Because the island of Borneo is large enough, there are many inland lakes, wetlands and depressions that can store water. The continuous runoff of the Sarawak River every year is
It was poured into the sea in vain.
After the completion of Lanfang's water diversion project from the middle and lower reaches of the Sarawak River, the one-time cost has been invested, and it will be used in vain if it is not used later. There is nothing wrong with using some of the extra water resources for farming. It is not that the water is diverted entirely for the purpose of farming.
Moreover, all these are just superficial reasons. More importantly, Gu Kun wants to discount the banner of "protecting the country's agricultural security" and control the pace of land supply in Lanfang's real estate market.
If there are too many undeveloped areas and houses are too expensive and the land supply is too small, it cannot be justified. Future foreign home buyers will also hesitate and consider "whether it is a good deal or whether it is inflated."
But if there is an excuse to block it, and the Chinese and the Lanfang people have the same culture and race, everyone's cultural genes and common memories can also understand each other, it will be much better.
…
Shi Minglun was an insider to Gu Kun's conspiracy and calculations. Of course he understood that although Su Changyong had only been dragged into the industry for a few months, he had been exposed to it and already understood the sinister nature of it.
So cruel!
This is to turn all the land that the Brittany Real Estate Company planned to hoard in advance into hydropower plants and asphalt and heavy oil plants to expand the countryside!
At most, there are only those areas closest to the houses that are unwilling to be relocated and facing the street. People are embarrassed to be too direct and will be converted into parks to reduce direct pollution and disturbance to residents.
The problem is, even if there are parks, greening, and other commercial facilities are demolished, the houses in those places will at most be sold at low prices to workers in the power plant, water plant, heavy oil asphalt plant, right? Or plantation farms.
of workers.
How much money are these people willing to pay to buy or rent a house?
Anyway, those plots of land have nothing to do with the future bustling tourist and business district in the city center. If there is a little bit of vacant state-owned land, Gu Kun will help fill it with plantations.
What a loss of blood!
"Asshole! This beast, Gu Kun, is not running Lanfang's real estate market according to open and free market operations! He is a despicable monopoly dog!"
After leaving the press conference room and walking to the adjacent lounge, the first moment he closed the door, Shi Minglun was so angry that he smashed the ashtray.
800 million pounds! Not to mention losing all your money, after all, the basic value of those dilapidated houses is still there. But if such a wave of hype fails, there will definitely be a net loss of 700 million pounds out of 800 million pounds. How can this be compared to the head office?
Explain?
Career is over.
Two Chinese reporters, Su Changyong and Chen Wenming, waited beside them anxiously, not daring to express their anger. After Shi Minglun was completely stunned, he carefully persuaded:
"There are always risks in business, and we don't understand it. We just follow the plan... Forget it, we don't want our own house anymore. If the company wants to take it away, we can take it away."
Originally, this is not the responsibility of Su Changyong and others, but they also know how terrible the loss of 800 million pounds is. At this juncture, any gap or fuse left for people to vent their anger and unwillingness is likely to happen.
of human life.
It's better to be careful. Even if your house is built into it and the options for compensation are also built into it, and you don't get a penny, you can't mess with it.
At least not for the time being.
Shi Minglun glared coldly at the two white-hearted former BBC and roadside club members, but he couldn't find any fault in the other party. He couldn't find an excuse to get angry, so he could only sigh bitterly, making the other party's heart tremble, and quietly retreated.
, then Shi Minglun hid in the lounge alone and smoked a cigar bitterly. When he lit the cigar, it was almost broken by him. Even the opening was not cut out with cigar scissors, but directly broken and torn open.
Not long after Su Changyong left the depressing lounge, he saw two staff members approaching. He and Chen Wenming subconsciously felt a murderous aura and quickly looked at each other with vigilance, preparing to take a detour.
However, the visitor grabbed their arms and congratulated them at a seemingly low volume but slightly audible to others: "Mr. Su, your acting skills are great. You'd better go on time in the afternoon. Chen Chu doesn't like it."
If you wait too long, this is also to protect you, so I will take cash and make your own arrangements."
Su Changyong was stunned for a moment and did not react. After all, he was just an ordinary person and had not received special professional training. He did not dare to resist. He was half-dragged and half-dragged out for more than ten meters before he became slightly aware of a terrifying possibility.
However, it was already too late. He had already left the sight of Shi Minglun, his party and his men. At this time, no matter how hard he struggled to distinguish his true master, he would no longer be able to see him.
