After several years of construction, the MTR line from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O was officially put into operation on July 26.
On this day, not only did Kesos personally attend the commissioning ceremony, but also invited Li Jianhui, Li Guobao, Zhang Guangwen, Keswick, Shi Huaiya, Li Zhaoji, Stanley Ho, Li Chaoren, Zheng Yutong and others.
In terms of station property development, the biggest profit maker is not Shun Tak Group, which acquired Tseung Kwan O Station, but Kwong Wah Construction in Tiu Keng Ling.
Because of Li Jianhui's layout, Tiu Keng Leng was renamed Jinghua Village, and Tiu Kengling Station was renamed Jinghua Station. Its housing prices have also risen rapidly in the past two years, even if the overall market downturn has not affected this place.
Unlike Jinghua Village, where Li Jianhui mainly develops luxury villa areas, as a subway station development, it mainly focuses on high-rise residential buildings.
In order not to look lonely here, Xinjian Real Estate has also built a high-rise residential complex here, and the children of residents living here can also attend Jinghua Primary School and Middle School, thus attracting many families to buy houses here.
When this subway line was originally built, an important role was to improve the transportation of residents in Tiu Keng Leng.
However, times have changed. When the MTR was put into operation, Tiu Keng Ling had been transformed into King Wah Estate, and most of the former villagers had moved to the new urban area of Tseung Kwan O.
MacLehose, who originally intended to win over Li Jianhui through this, was later used by Li Jianhui to make him leave Xiangjiang. It can be said that he is very fickle.
However, the operation of this subway line will greatly improve the public transportation travel of Xiangjiang citizens, especially the citizens of the new urban area of Tseung Kwan O. They will have new transportation options when entering the city center in the future, and it will be faster.
As the subway train headed towards Tseung Kwan O, Li Jianhui, who was sitting in the carriage, said: "Mr. Kessos, although the opening of the Kwun Tong-Tseung Kwan O line has improved the travel of citizens in the new urban area of Tseung Kwan O to a certain extent.
However, due to line problems, residents of the new urban area of Tseung Kwan O still find the Eastern District and the East and West Districts relatively detoured. I hope the government can plan and build a subway line from the Eastern District across the sea to Yau Tong and to Tseung Kwan O."
“Bryan and I have also discussed recently and come up with a huge transportation construction plan, which includes several new urban connection roads, subway lines, and a new airport.
Among them is the subway line that Li Sheng mentioned to build a subsea tunnel from Central through the Eastern District to connect Yau Tong directly to the new urban area of Tseung Kwan O.
However, Li Sheng should also be aware that this plan involves too much scope and may not be decided and implemented in a short period of time. This will still take a certain amount of time.
Of course, if Li Sheng is interested in investing, our government will be very happy, especially the new airport project."
Not to mention that Li Jianhui doesn't have much money at the moment, even if he has money, he has no intention of investing in this project for the time being.
In this regard, he only said that Kai Tak Airport can fully meet Hong Kong's air transportation needs and there is no need to build a new airport.
At the same time, we also hope that the government can speed up the construction of the subway from Tsuen Wan to the new urban area of Tin Shui City so that it can be more closely connected with the central city.
However, there were not only Tung Wah Association members present. Li Zhaoji, who focused on the layout of the Tuen Mun-Tsuen Wan front line, said: "Mr. Kessos, Tuen Mun is one of the main construction areas of housing estates. In order to make it more convenient for these citizens to work in the central city, transportation Improvement is urgent, and I hope the government can prioritize the construction of the MTR line from Tsuen Wan to Tuen Mun, so that the people of Tuen Mun don’t have to worry about commuting to and from get off work.”
Zheng Yutong, Li Chaoren, Shi Huaiya and others are also unwilling to lag behind, and they all hope to prioritize transportation in their key areas.
Kesos is very happy to see this situation. Brian and him have already discussed that once it is determined that this side cannot hold on, they will come up with a huge infrastructure plan. As for the government fiscal deficit resulting from this, this is simply not the case.
It's not within their consideration.
At that time, not only will there be no surplus in annual government revenue, but there will also be serious overspending. As for which projects should be given priority, it will depend on which of the parties leans more towards them.
Anyway, the Tung Wah Association has been temporarily excluded by them. Whether it is the Tsuen Wan to Tin Shui City new urban subway line, or the Eastern District cross-harbour to Tseung Kwan O new urban subway line, as long as he and Brian are in office, it is impossible to actually start construction.
construction.
Now the Donghua Association is too strong, which is not what they want to see. Both Brian and him hope to support one or even several companies to contain the Donghua Association.
Li Jianhui still doesn't know what Xosos and Brian are thinking. He is still thinking about contacting these two people once the negotiations are over to plan more benefits for the Xin Jian Department and the Donghua Association.
…
It has to be said that the opening of the subway can indeed save a lot of time for citizens to travel. Take the trip of Li Jianhui and others as an example. From Hung Hom to Tseung Kwan O, taking the subway saves about 20 minutes than taking a car. This is because cars are smooth all the way.
situation.
Obviously, Kesos invited so many people not just to attend today's event. After arriving at Tseung Kwan O Station, he briefly visited the property development situation on the station and then invited everyone to the conference room of the Tseung Kwan O Xin Hui Hotel.
“Today I specially invite you all, firstly, to congratulate you on the official operation of the Kwun Tong-Tseung Kwan O line, and also to congratulate you on the official handover of the station property development project.
Over the past hundreds of years, through the efforts of generations of people in Xiangjiang, today's prosperity has been achieved.
But we must clearly realize that the current situation is due to the existing system and management model.
Once there are changes, I'm afraid today's prosperity will also disappear.
As representatives of Xiangjiang, you are qualified and have the right to fight for your right to speak.
I believe everyone is aware of the recent situation. If you are unwilling to stand up for your own interests, then this hard-won situation is likely to undergo major changes, and your family's decades or even centuries of struggle will be ruined.
It could be all in vain.”
Those present here did not expect that Kesos would actually talk about this today. It is no wonder that no members of the Xianghua Club were invited today.
It's just that on this issue, Li Jianhui and others will not be bewitched by Xosos, let alone become a gun in the hands of the Bryan government.
Li Jianhui said solemnly: "We are also very concerned about the current situation, but we are just businessmen doing our duty, not politicians. We can only hope to properly solve this problem.
The only thing we can do now is to promote the stable development of Hong Kong's economy as much as possible and then wait for the results to be released.
As for future changes, if we really cannot tolerate our continued development here, we will have to find another way."
Xosos didn't believe a word of Li Jianhui's words. If there was anyone who was not a conscientious businessman, it would definitely be Li Jianhui.
Not to mention Greater China and ASEAN, which are its key areas of deployment, it is their homeland, and the conservative party has the shadow of the Xinjian faction behind it.
He specially made an appointment with these people this time, and also held discussions with Tseung Kwan O, hoping that some people would come forward and put pressure on the North.
It's a pity that after Li Jianhui took the lead to speak, none of these people would stand up if they followed his example.
Kesos has taken note of this matter today. When Li Jianhui comes to visit him in the future, he will let Li Jianhui know that as long as he is still in office, he still has the final say on the development plan here.
After everyone's words fell, Xosos said: "Of course I know that everyone is a businessman of their own responsibilities and does business in accordance with the law.
But some forces will not talk to you about the law. They will only talk about rights. In the eyes of those forces, the law is nothing in the face of rights.
Li Sheng, I heard that Taoda Group has acquired a herbal tea beverage brand. The major market brands in Xiangjiang and even the world belong to Taoda, but that one does not belong to Taoda.
I think many of you here know more about how this came about than I do. Aren't you worried about a recurrence of this incident?
Private property is sacred and inviolable. You have the right to stand up to protect your property. Only by fighting for it can you defend your property and interests from damage."
"Thank you Mr. Kesos for your concern for Taoda Group. Although I don't care about Taoda Group, I have heard a little about this matter.
It's just that history in this area is quite complicated, and we can't always be immersed in history. Now we have to look forward more.
As for the Hong Kong issue, we cannot intervene in this aspect, and we do not have the qualifications and strength to intervene. I believe that for the benefit of more than six million citizens, there will be a good result.
What we should do most now is to promote the stable and healthy development of Hong Kong's economy, instead of thinking about illusory things."
Xosos is completely disappointed today. Li Pengfei and others are still willing to be their pawns. Li Jianhui and others are all Hong Kong business tycoons and have been in the business world for many years. How could they make such a low-level mistake?
Especially now, everyone with a discerning eye knows that Britain is a powerful force on the outside, but it dares not respond directly to threats from the north.
Knowing that return is a foregone conclusion, he will only jump out if his brain is short-circuited. Anyway, none of the heads of the Chinese-owned families here today have a brain disorder.
