Chapter 305 Park
The position that Xiangjiang Shenghua Company has taken in Pengcheng is located in the northwest, which is the future Bao'an area.
The reason for choosing this land is its convenient location and transportation. It is not too far from the municipal party committee and government, and National Highway 107 passes nearby. Directly to the southeast are Futian and Luohu, and it is also very convenient to Hong Kong.
Shenghua Company has acquired 300 acres of land here. 300 acres is not a small number. Converted into square meters, it is nearly 200,000 square meters. If Shenghua Company had not come early and demonstrated strong strength, how could it have gained such benefits?
Song Yuanchao had already discussed with Qin Zhengguo about the development of 300 acres of land. All of it would be used to build an industrial park belonging to Shenghua. The park would have its own roads, factories and other facilities. After the park was built, except for a part used by Shenghua itself, the rest would be rented out to other businessmen coming to Pengcheng.
The planning of the park was done by Yangcheng Design Institute. Although the designers in Hong Kong are more famous, compared with skyscrapers and high-end buildings, the design of the park is not complicated. Yangcheng Design Institute is fully capable of doing this job. In addition, the cost of Yangcheng Design Institute is much lower than that in Hong Kong. Why go far away?
According to the plan, the entire park will require at least 18 million yuan in funds and more than three years from investment to completion. Money and time are not a problem. Qin Zhengguo has made proper arrangements, and the local government has also given preferential policies of two exemptions and three reductions by half on taxes, which has made the construction of the park and the advancement of the project very smooth.
At present, more than 70 acres of land in the park have been developed. Among the other 200 acres of land, except for the planned internal roads, only the walls have been built. The factory buildings and other buildings inside have not yet been officially constructed. However, judging from the progress of the opening, the progress is very fast, because at the beginning of the opening, the planning of various places has been completed, and the internal roads have also had a preliminary shape. The next step is the construction and simple decoration of various buildings. After these are completed, the park will look like a real one.
Two-thirds of the more than 70 acres of developed land belongs to Shenghua Company for its own use, including newly built factories and supporting facilities, including a six-story hotel. In addition to meeting the internal use of the park, the hotel is also open to the public for the accommodation of merchants coming to Pengcheng.
The factory has been completely completed, and the equipment purchased from Hong Kong has been installed and debugged. The factory is also recruiting people to start trial production. Although the exterior of the hotel has been completed, due to the different uses of hotels and ordinary factories, it will take some time for the interior decoration and staff to be in place. It is estimated that it will not be officially put into operation until the beginning of next spring.
Sitting in Qin Zhengguo's Mercedes-Benz, they entered Shenghua's industrial park. When looking at the industrial park which was originally farmland but has now undergone a huge transformation, Song Yuanchao felt deeply moved and at the same time he also had high hopes for this land.
"Look, that's our new factory over there." Qin Zhengguo held the steering wheel with one hand and raised the other hand to point forward. Following the direction of his finger, Song Yuanchao saw the conspicuous gray-white buildings and walls in the distance.
"How much land does the new factory occupy? How many floors does this building have? How many buildings are there in total?" Song Yuanchao asked as he looked around.
"The new factory occupies 45 mu of land. Due to time constraints, I only built a few main structures, including a three-story office building, a five-story factory building with dormitories, and a 10,000-square-meter steel structure warehouse."
Song Yuanchao nodded. Qin Zhengguo's arrangement was correct. They should first build the main structure and put the factory into operation. As for the other things, they could do them slowly later. This way, the initial investment would not be too large and it would be more practical.
"Is this place rented out? Are there any merchants moving in?" Song Yuanchao asked, shifting his gaze from Shenghua's factory to several nearby buildings.
"Yes!" Qin Zhengguo nodded and said, "There are three factory buildings here in total. The structure is built according to the industrial buildings in Hong Kong. The area of each floor is basically around 1,000 to 1,200 square meters. The interior can be freely partitioned and has water and electricity. Many small companies in Hong Kong rent a floor or half a floor for production and office use."
"There are already quite a few Hong Kong bosses negotiating to move in, and five have officially confirmed that they will move in next month."
After asking about the rent, Qin Zhengguo discussed it with Song Yuanchao in detail. Song Yuanchao calculated in his mind that the rent was reasonable. Although it was a bit expensive in Pengcheng by mainland standards, it was much cheaper than in Hong Kong. Moreover, small companies like this did not have the ability to directly acquire land and build factories in Pengcheng. You must know that in Hong Kong, many small companies have only a dozen or twenty people from the boss to the employees, and the larger ones have no more than forty or fifty people. In addition to the few equipment, an area of half a floor to one floor is enough for them to start work.
Moreover, in order to take this factor into consideration, the first floor of the industrial building was planned to be a warehouse, and the interior of the warehouse was partitioned for the use of the merchants upstairs. In addition, a freight elevator was installed in the building, which is extremely convenient for going up and down. Such a structure is very attractive to these small business owners.
"Where is our hotel? Where is it?" Song Yuanchao looked around and seemed not to see where Shenghua's hotel was.
"It's behind the factory. This direction is blocked by the factory building. You'll be able to see it after you enter the factory area." Qin Zhengguo said with a smile, pointing to the front. At this time, the car had already arrived at the factory gate. The gate was closed. Qin Zhengguo honked the horn twice. A middle-aged man poked his head out from the guard post and took a look. When he saw Qin Zhengguo's car, he quickly came out from the guard post and opened the gate.
"Boss, you're back."
"This is Boss Song, the boss of our company and my good friend. He will be staying here for a few days. Lao Kang, remember to recognize him and don't make the mistake." Qin Zhengguo nodded, pointed at Song Yuanchao who was sitting in the co-pilot seat and said so.
"Hello, Mr. Song." Lao Kang smiled and nodded to Song Yuanchao. Song Yuanchao politely replied hello . Then Qin Zhengguo didn't say much, stepped on the accelerator and drove in. The car driven by Song Yuanchao behind followed into the factory.
"This Lao Kang is a local, the brother of the village party secretary. When you work on someone else's land, you can't avoid using their people. In addition to Lao Kang, the factory has recruited more than 30 local young people, who are receiving training in the factory these days." Qin Zhengguo gave a brief explanation after entering the gate, and Song Yuanchao nodded to show that he understood. This is the same as at the Tengfei Factory. After the land is expropriated, some local people will also be employed in the factory. In fact, these people also exist in state-owned enterprises, commonly known as "land expropriation workers."
After driving through the gate, the factory seemed empty. After all, 45 acres of land is not a small area. Now there is a wall outside such a large piece of land, but the buildings inside are empty except for a three-story office building, a four-story factory building, and a large warehouse of 10,000 square meters.
Qin Zhengguo drove the car directly to the office building and took Song Yuanchao downstairs.
There was a glass door on the front of the first floor. The logo of Xiangjiang Shenghua (China) Co., Ltd. was pasted on the door. When he pushed the door open, a cool breeze blew over him. Song Yuanchao looked up and smiled, "You know how to enjoy yourself, is there central air conditioning in this building?"
"Haha, we have to install it. It's too hot here in the summer, and the summer is long. We can't work in the office all the time. Let alone the office building, even the factory building has installed it. The air conditioners in the factory building are not as sophisticated as those in the office building, but the effect is the same. You know what, central air conditioners are so expensive. The money spent on purchasing, installing and debugging the central air conditioners on both sides is almost the same as the money spent on the two buildings."
Song Yuanchao nodded to show his understanding. Central air conditioning is a big expense in decoration. The price is indeed not cheap, and most of the main units and control boxes are imported. China is still very lacking in this aspect. It was not until the 1990s that domestic manufacturers of central air conditioners began to emerge in this field, and at the same time, a large number of engineering teams specializing in this field were derived.
"Boss, you're back..." A girl at the front desk saw Qin Zhengguo walking in with an unfamiliar young man, and hurriedly stood up to greet them.
"This is Boss Song, the boss of the company." Qin Zhengguo pointed at Song Yuanchao and said.
"Hello, Mr. Song." The girl was quite pretty. Although her skin was a little dark, she was young and beautiful. Her professional attire showed off her excellent figure. In that era, only Hong Kong companies like Shenghua could dress like this.
Song Yuanchao smiled and said hello, while nodding slightly to the other party.
Looking at the tall and handsome Song Yuanchao, the girl's face turned slightly red, and she couldn't help but secretly look at Song Yuanchao.
Compared to Qin Zhengguo, Song Yuanchao is more attractive in her eyes. He is so young and is a boss. After all, Qin Zhengguo is already married and his wife is pregnant. If this boss Song is still single, maybe she has a chance?
If I could marry a big boss, wouldn't I be able to enjoy a happy life? Thinking of this, the girl's mind became more active, and her mind was instantly full of fantasies.
"Is Vice President Zhang here?" Qin Zhengguo asked.
The girl didn't react for a moment. She was thinking about her own little thoughts at that moment. It was not until Qin Zhengguo frowned and asked another question that the girl came back to her senses.
"Vice President Zhang just went to the factory building. Boss, are you looking for him?"
"Well, go find him and ask him to come to my office." Qin Zhengguo said so, then frowned and reached out to knock on the front desk: "You must concentrate on work and don't be confused. The work of the front desk is very important. The front desk is not only the company's facade but also the company's external window. Do you understand?"
"Understood, understood. Boss, I'll go find Vice President Zhang right away..." The girl was frightened by Qin Zhengguo's harsh words. She nodded repeatedly and hurriedly walked around the front desk and opened the door to go out. However, she walked too fast and tripped as soon as she walked out of the door, and almost fell down the stairs.
Looking at the girl's miserable appearance, Qin Zhengguo couldn't help but shook his head.
This girl is also a local. Although she looks good, she has a low education level and her quality is not that good. She can only be considered the tallest among the short ones when she is at the front desk. Compared with when Xu Hui first joined Shenghua, this girl is far worse.
