Chapter 674: Chapter 288: Being a Close Father and Son-in-law_2
This is the benefit of making a name for oneself.
Now, in Su Huai’s eyes, Xingyu is mediocre and far from its peak form, even somewhat distant from the word "Health."
Yet to outsiders, having lured Zhang Dayi away from Ruhan, and having cultivated Yuji, Xingyu was already firmly seated in the top spot among MCN organizations.
Under such cordial circumstances, Mr. Su couldn’t help but share a simple piece.
"Thank you for the tremendous support from all the leaders. Our current planning in Hangzhou involves three aspects..."
These include the live streaming base, which is about infrastructure construction.
The supply chain center, which deals with channel integration.
The branch headquarters, more about facade construction and core coordination integration.
From an investment perspective, the live streaming base is a one-time investment, whereas the branch is a long-term value creator that surprisingly doesn’t require high investment. The supply chain center involves transportation, storage, logistics, and even manufacturing, and will necessitate continuous investment.
The leaders listened with eyes sparkling, almost wishing they could secure Mr. Su on the spot.
"Your company’s development potential is evident to all, and your strategic thinking is captivating. Jiubao enthusiastically welcomes Xingyu’s decision to settle here and eagerly looks forward to exploring innovative paths in the new era of e-commerce and internet celebrity collaboration with Xingyu..."
The director’s summary was passionate, essentially boiling down to—
What do you want?
As long as I have it, it’s all OK!
The tax policy offered three years of tax exemption followed by five years of reductions.
Regarding land policy, depending on the scale of investment, up to over a hundred acres of industrial land could be provided, with each acre costing merely 400,000 yuan!
Once the live streaming base settles in the park, service fees are waived, and utility fees are exempted for three years.
In terms of finance, low-interest loans are a certainty, and other details can be slowly discussed with local banks.
The financial shortcoming of this place is the inability to provide IPO guidance and complex guarantees, which is far behind more financially mature urban districts.
Then there’s the least invested but most crucial Xingyu branch office—the Eastern Park is willing to allocate a 2,000-square-meter site free of charge!
Meaning: the factory is yours, do what you want with it, free perpetual use as long as you are within the park.
Just how extravagant are the overall conditions offered by Jiubao?
Well, having been in the industry for so many years, Su Huai never heard such an incredible offer!
Through excavated memories from later generations, Su Huai remembered just how expensive this place was.
There were no industrial lands around Qiantang Smart City. In more rural areas, an acre cost around 1 to 2 million yuan.
The residential average price in the second phase of Smart City was 35,000 yuan per square meter after the real estate market collapsed and continued to decline, with peak prices along the riverside costing over 100,000 yuan each.
The rent in the live streaming park seemed to be three yuan per square meter per day, unavailable for purchase with money post-2018.
Even now, it’s tense. Ruhan, Beibei, Ti Su, many well-known companies crowded into Eastern Park.
According to their terms, Xingyu’s costs could be unimaginably low if it settled in Jiubao within five years.
Does this seem normal?
At this point in time, it’s abnormal but necessary.
Because Xingyu had Zhang Dayi, Yuji, and nearly ten thousand potential live streamers.
Because Jiubao had just been upgraded to a street district but was still primarily a large township centered on agriculture.
There was only one park, roads were just connected, construction sites were everywhere, and even the Metro Line 9 hadn’t been approved yet.
Compared to Xiaoshan Binjiang, what advantages did Jiubao have?
None.
They could only offer sincerity and a desperate courage.
Therefore, Mr. Su never even thought of inspecting another place or continuing to whet their appetite; being dissatisfied with what was offered up to this point was not deserving of doing business.
"Where exactly the headquarters will be located, I still need to further investigate. Let’s sign the land purchasing intention first, 200 acres, below 500,000 each, I’ll pay in full!"
Mr. Su boldly made the deal, giving Jiubao a strong reassurance.
The 1 billion yuan land purchase far exceeded his original plan and even required reallocating a bit of the live streamer salaries.
But buying this land was inevitable; buying now was a steal, buying later would be costly, and, moreover, it may not be available in another two years.
After buying, there was no rush to develop. He could start with the headquarters and the live streaming base. After all, spending 1 billion yuan could leverage a loan of 1.5 billion yuan, and the extra 500 million was more than enough to build the live streaming base.
Jiubao leaders, overly thrilled, immediately arranged a high-standard reception banquet, repeatedly toasting Mr. Su.
He was genuinely flattered, and even Su Huai felt bewildered.
He didn’t drink much, however, preferring to eat and chat instead.
Midway, he inquired from the industrial committee leader: "Does Jiubao have plans for a new park? The Eastern Park is good, but it’s too crowded; 2,000 square meters definitely won’t suffice for Xingyu."
The director of Eastern Park suddenly became anxious, but before he could recover, an excited, middle-aged balding man suddenly popped up from beside him.
"Yes! Yes!"
Bending over, he shook hands with Mr. Su. "Mr. Su, allow me to introduce myself, I’m Ji Bingjie from the economic development office, and our office is considering the construction of a new park..."
Su Huai patiently listened for a while, understanding what he meant.
This Brother Jie was painting a big picture for him.
Constructing a new park is good, but when would that be?
"No need to wait!"
Ji Bingjie adamantly stated, "After New Star Optoelectronics relocates, 11 old factory buildings on Jiuhua Road will be left vacant, which can be easily converted into a new park!"
Su Huai could tell; Brother Jie was too eager to progress, clearly aiming for the park director position.
