Chapter 200: 9 Piece of Land

Chapter 200 Nine Pieces of Land
An old Santana was waiting for the red light at the intersection.

on the passenger seat.

The middle-aged woman, nearly 40 years old, was dressed simply and plainly, with a ponytail and a handbag on her lap.

At this time, he turned around and asked:

"Old Zhou, that little celebrity in Hong Kong seems to be quite capable, right? I heard that he bought a lot of shares in Penguin Group, which is the leading company in Shenzhen's Internet industry."

A middle-aged man named Zhou Tiansheng, in his forties, with a square face, was drinking tea from a cup.

Judging from his dress and appearance, he is a very decent person.

After listening.

He smiled and said:
"Fan Wumian is not just some little celebrity, he's very famous."

"Yesterday my neighbor's daughter pestered her mother to buy his album. She will take the college entrance examination next year, and she makes her parents worry at all."

"It seems that not only has he become a major shareholder of Penguin Group, but he has also acquired a private club worth hundreds of millions of yuan next to Shichahai in Yanjing. This is not easy. The location is really amazing. He is truly able to talk and laugh with great scholars and have no ordinary people around."

The middle-aged woman who worked under him pushed her glasses and replied:

"When I say little celebrity, I mean he's young. I did some research before I left. The news said he has assets worth more than a billion Hong Kong dollars, but he also owes a lot of bank loans. Houhai hasn't been planned for overall development yet, so why would he be interested in that place?"

The young man who was in charge of driving, who had just been employed for less than two years, interrupted and said:

"Fan Wumian is known as the 'Little Heavenly King'. He is now more popular than the Four Heavenly Kings of Hong Kong. He can earn 30 to 40 million US dollars by making a movie in Hollywood. With his influence, he might be able to revitalize the area and attract more real estate developers to buy land there."

"He is already quite powerful, and there have been reports that he has an affair with the only daughter of Zuo's Real Estate in Hong Kong. The grandfather of that rich girl just bought a piece of land worth HK$11 billion on the Peak in Hong Kong, and he only plans to use it to build 12 villas."

"Fan Wumian lives in Repulse Bay, where a large villa is worth nearly HK$2 million. He probably knows a lot of wealthy people around here. The commercial and residential properties next to the Shahe Golf Course were originally priced too high and couldn't be sold for a long time. After he bought two villas, the market was revitalized quickly and it's hard to find a house now."

Lao Zhou joked:
"It seems that you, Xiao Ge, pay close attention to current affairs and know the latest developments first-hand. But you are right. If we can win over Fan Wumian, the area of ​​Shencheng Bay will be very likely to be revitalized. Celebrities attract more attention wherever they are. If he is around, Hong Kong businessmen will definitely pay more attention to the coast of the Bay Area when they come to invest in the future."

Yanjing has "Qianhai" and "Houhai", and Shenzhen has the same.

This year.

Shenzhen does not yet have the concept of "Houhai Headquarters" or "Shenzhen Super Headquarters", but the land along the Shenzhen Bay is also positioned as a core area.

The planning and positioning of the entire city is not clear enough. Most people think that it will expand eastward, but Shencheng Bay is located in the west.

The fact is that Shenzhen will expand westwards in the future, and even the Qianhai area, which is now deserted, will become a hot spot where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

When they arrived at the wasteland along the coast, they soon found Fan Wumian and his group.

The two sides greeted each other and exchanged a few polite words.

Zhou Tiansheng, whose title is "Deputy", seemed to be very familiar with Pu Jiajing's father. He said that he went there for training two months ago and they had dinner together several times.

Let’s get to the point quickly.

At this moment, Zhou Tiansheng asked Fan Wumian indirectly:
"Mr. Fan came here to inspect this time. What kind of business do you want to do with the land? Putting aside other things, the feng shui of this place should be quite good. Look at how beautiful the sea view is. If we build a 20-30-story office building, it will definitely be comfortable to use for work. When the employees look at the scenery while at work, their mood will be better."

He started by commenting from the perspective of "feng shui", and it is obvious that he knows how to attract Hong Kong businessmen.

Fan Wumian saw through it but didn't say anything. He smiled and replied:

"I haven't made up my mind yet, so I'll come over here today to take a look. I saw some news online before, and it seems that the rules for land transfer by agreement have been cancelled, and now all land transfers are done through bidding, auctioning, and listing. The land price has gone up a lot?"

"Yes, the land transfer agreement was cancelled last year. The bidding and auctioning method is more formal, which is conducive to the healthy development of the property market in Hong Kong and other cities."

Listen to what Deputy Director Zhou has to say.

Fan Wumian continued to ask: "Then how much is the land price around here worth now?"

"There are some prices nearby that you can refer to. It depends on the nature of the property. There are different types of properties, such as residential, industrial, hotel, and commercial office."

"What about mixed commercial and residential development, with offices, shopping malls, and hotels?"

"Mr. Fan has a big appetite."

Zhou Tiansheng was indeed quite surprised. Nowadays, when developers acquire land, the land is mostly used for a single purpose, and the concept of commercial complexes is not very popular. Fan Wumian thought that if he boasted enough, it would be easier to find out the bottom price, so he waved his hand and said:

"I feel this place is suitable for being developed into the Tsim Sha Tsui of Shenzhen. We should build office buildings and shopping malls first, then build a super skyscraper, and then sell houses and apartments to the public after it is developed."

"You should also know that the investment in buildings and shopping malls is too large, and the rental returns are relatively low. Given the situation nearby, it may take many years to develop. Without residential projects to help recoup the investment, it is estimated that it will lose a lot of money."

"So if you want to acquire land here, the area must be large enough, and the total investment must be at least 50 billion yuan."

He is already a wealthy man with a net worth of nearly 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

If they bring in more partners and get bank loans for development, considering that they don't have to invest that much money all at once, the request of "50 billion RMB" would not seem completely impossible to Zhou Tiansheng and others.

The fundamental reason is that Fan Wumian is from Hong Kong.

Some skyscrapers in Hong Kong cost more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to build. There are too many powerful real estate developers, and in recent years many of them have gone to the mainland to develop their business.

Zhou Tiansheng was tickled by this number, and replied half-jokingly and half-seriously:
"If Mr. Fan can really invest 50 billion, you can buy as much land as you want. Some time ago, Anbao just sold a commercial and residential land of about 4 square meters for sale. The transaction price was 7900 million, which is much cheaper than your Gangcheng."

"Since October last year, the city has started the renovation of urban villages. For some projects that are urgently needed and particularly encouraged to develop, or projects that use land as equity, you can still choose to transfer the land through agreement, but the approval procedures are a little more complicated. With a huge investment of 10 billion yuan, there is definitely a chance to fight for it."

"By adopting the land transfer agreement method, the land price can be cheaper, but some rigid requirements will also be made to avoid default by the investor. In order to ease the financial pressure, the land transfer fee can also be paid in installments."

Penguin stocks are rising, and the share price is rising rapidly.

Upon learning that the commercial and residential land covering an area of ​​4 square meters was only worth 7900 million yuan, Fan Wumian was extremely excited.

It is said that the investment is at the level of 50 billion.

However, the planning and design was delayed by a year and a half, the land leveling was delayed by another year and a half, and the foundation digging took another year and a half. By then, Fan Wumian’s funding problem would most likely have been completely solved.

In fact, in the early stages, you only need to consider the cost of acquiring the land.

You can pay out some money yourself and borrow the rest from a bank, which is equivalent to paying some interest to speculate in land. When the time comes, you can develop the land in batches and delay the entire construction period by 10 or 20 years. By then, housing prices would have skyrocketed.

Next to Shencheng Bay.

The area where Chunsun Building and Shenzhen City Bay No. 1 were located in the past was impeccable in terms of location and value-added potential.

I had vowed and determined before that I was just coming over to take a look.

After a brief understanding of the situation.

Fan Wumian was in high spirits. He used the hood of a BMW 740 as a table, pressed the four corners of the plan with stones, and talked with Zhou Tiansheng about his ideas.

Surrounding the future Shenzhen City Bay Talent Park, nine simply drawn squares were pointed out in succession. Each square was a piece of land, with a total area of ​​varying sizes, adding up to a total of about 32 square meters.

The combined area of ​​the two plots is approximately 8 square meters. He proposed using them to build a luxury villa area to attract residents of the port city to buy houses.

Of course, it's just an excuse.

A 400-meter-high skyscraper is also planned, along with a shopping mall, office parks and luxury residential buildings.

The commitment is that excluding the land price, the total investment within ten years will not be less than 50 billion yuan, otherwise the government has the right to confiscate the undeveloped land and collect liquidated damages.

The package transfer price of the land for this "urban complex" cannot be calculated for the time being, but since such a huge amount of foreign investment is involved, there must be some discounts.

Today, the average benchmark land price for commercial properties in Shenzhen is only about 1840 yuan per square meter, and the benchmark land price for residential properties is only about 2170 yuan.

Districts such as Luohu and Fukubata are considered good places by people. No one pays attention to the area near Shenchengwan, and the prices are relatively cheaper.

Taking into account the fact that such a large investment can drive surrounding development, increase employment rates, drive tax growth and other benefits, Zhou Tiansheng suggested that Fan Wumian set the investment amount higher, which would also make it easier to approve and stamp.

therefore.

The estimated investment amount of 10 billion within 50 years was verbally increased to 65 billion.

For buildings with a floor area ratio greater than 1.0, the price is calculated based on the floor price; for buildings with a floor area ratio less than 1.0, the price is calculated based on the benchmark land price.

Since they also plan to build residential houses to hedge the risks of investing in commercial real estate projects, the land transfer price for residential houses is relatively expensive.

After a rough calculation, Fan Wumian found that if the building area is 100 million square meters and the average floor price is 2000 yuan per square meter, the initial investment cost of acquiring the land is too high, at least 20 billion yuan.
