Chapter seven hundred and sixty-five, Florida hurricane blows in Coconut City(1/2)
In the afternoon, Nanyi entered the Silk Pavilion and squeezed into the crowded booth. At a glance, he looked at the product, and then he pricked up his ears to listen to the staff at the booth communicate with foreigners, and captured the keywords in the conversation, such as the foreigner’s company, name, products he is interested in, etc.
After spending half an afternoon like this, Nan Yi was exposed. A staff member at the booth noticed him. Nan Yi also noticed that the other party noticed something wrong with him. Before the other party called the person from the organizing committee, he ran away.
The next day, Su Meng entered the Silk Museum and did the same thing. She was not as blatant as Nan Yi. She survived for a longer time and spent soaking in the Silk Museum for a long time before she came out.
On the third day, Pan Wuji and Zhao Jun, four people took turns to enter. There were so many names of more than 20 companies. I found out the names of more than 20 companies. I compared the list copied from the European yellow pages. Half of the information can be improved. The remaining half will be compared after the phone books of several European countries are sent.
During this period, a deposit of 60,000 pounds of information fees and two orders of 30% deposit was received. Nanyi called Liu Xin, who was still in Hangzhou, and asked her to notify the people from the Chaosi Factory to go to Coconut City to receive the deposit of 30% deposit that New World needs to pay.
Only by delivering in Coconut City can you ensure that what the Cangsi Silk Factory gets is foreign exchange. If you write a cash check or make allocations between banks, most of the Cangsi Silk Factory will not be foreign exchange, and may turn into foreign exchange coupons or RMB. It depends on how much face the Cangsi Silk Factory has in the bank.
As for withdrawing foreign exchange from the bank, it is not impossible. The foreign exchange in Coconut City is free. Although this freedom is the same as the days when "Tomorrow Will Better" or "Dedication of Love" are broadcast on the school radio, the theoretically the donation is subject to the students themselves, but the teacher often says "Donate from 50 cents", but Nanyi cannot directly send foreign exchange to others to Hangzhou City.
But Nanyi has to bear more risks when doing this, but he doesn’t want to bear the risks of letters of credit, so how could he take the initiative to bear the risks of shipping foreign exchange?
After receiving the deposit, Nan Yi asked Liu Xin to find Penny Strit, and the Golden Arm came forward to provide a guarantee for Yiwan International. The Nest Wire Factory didn't have to worry about the safety of the final payment, but it was just a few days in the evening, so he naturally agreed.
On October 19, Nan Yi sent Su Meng back to his hometown to apply for a passport, and sent Pan Wuji and the others to return to Coconut City first.
On October 20, Zhao Jinshui and Chaosi Factory completed deposit delivery. On the same day, the goods were boarded a freighter at Sanbao Wharf, entered the East China Sea along the Qiantang River, and then headed south into Coconut City.
The goods were shipped and the order was half completed. Nanyi also had the leisure to watch a national model competition with the full name "The Chinese Top Ten Supermodel Competition in the United States Supermodel Competition". He appreciated the style of the models and cheered Yao Peifen of Yaqing Company.
"The moon is bright, the moon is bright, and the moonlight shines on the wine bottle. Suizhou wine is so good, and you can't sleep if you don't drink it. The fragrance of wine floats into the Moon Palace. Chang'e smells so happy. Miss Chang'e comes down to earth and insists on drinking with me. You drink one glass, and I drink one glass, and the face is red. Ah, dear Suizhou wine, Chang'e doesn't let go. She would rather give up the Moon Palace than the wine. In order to drink this wine forever, she would just get married and not leave."
This section is the advertising slogan of Suizhou Liquor. Suizhou Liquor is also the most famous liquor this year. Whether it is Maotai or Nanchen Liquor, you have to stand aside in front of it.
At the just-concluded National Sugar and Wine Autumn Fair, Suizhou Wine won an order of 50,000 tons, with a total market amount of up to 144 million.
Nanyi, who saw this news in the newspaper, was thinking about how Suizhou wine was poured. As long as you start with such a good start, Suizhou wine should be among the famous wines. However, before Nanyi had an in-depth understanding of domestic liquor brands, the brand was just a little familiar, but I don’t remember seeing it anywhere.
He didn't feel familiar with him, and there was only one possibility. Suizhou wine disappeared in the market after not living for a long time.
On October 22, Nanyi published recruitment news in Xiangjun's newspaper. The general requirements are similar to those of general foreign trade companies for personnel, but one of them is that after joining the company, the personnel must work in Coconut City for half a year.
After staying in Xiangwu for about a week, Nan Yi was about to bring a few recruits back to Coconut City, but Fan Hongdou called him.
"Godfather, Uncle Xian Ji and I are back."
When Nan Yi heard Fan Hongdou say this, he just slammed. If Xian Ji was normal to come back to visit relatives, Fan Hongdou wouldn't have to call him, and he would probably either be resigned by making a mistake or retired due to injury.
"Where did you hurt?"
"The right foot is a little lame, it doesn't look very serious."
"That's good. You go see him for your godfather and have a good chat with him. If he wants to do some business by himself, he needs capital to ask him to find you. If he is willing to follow his godfather, then let him go to Coconut City to find me."
"I see."
A few years ago, the young young people in Wenchangwei were very active in joining the army. People went to the army every year, and even two female soldiers were sent out. The reason why they were so active was not unrelated to the preferential treatment proposed by Nan Yi. If something happened to them in the army, Nan Yi would have to bear some responsibility.
After finally reaching the end of the rotation, everyone must have all the finals, but unexpectedly, Nan Yi felt quite uncomfortable when he was injured and retired.
To encourage or encourage young people in Wenchangwei to join the army, Nan Yi has both a sense of family and country and great selfishness. First, for the common prosperity of Wenchangwei, in his conception, Wenchangwei should have multi-line development of military, political and business, and blossom in various fields, so that Wenchangwei's future path can be steadily.
The second is to let others realize his own military dream. If he traveled through time a few years in the morning, Nan Yi would join the army without hesitation and work in the army for the rest of his life. He had once thought of becoming a martyr.
Unfortunately, he is a selfish person and is also good at weighing the pros and cons. At this time point during the time, the path he is now taking is the most correct one he thinks, so he cannot join the army himself, so he encourages others to go.
As autumn went and winter came, as the two orders were recovered, the house named Bridgehead by Nanyi was renovated and Yiwan International moved to the first floor office. The company's structure was gradually improved, and it looked like a serious trading company.
After Su Meng got her passport, Nan Yi sent Pan Wuji back to get her passport. After the employees recruited in Xiangwu were familiar with the silk, Nan Yi immediately let them move.
There were five people in total, three of them sent to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to contact various nest silk factories. Yiwan International needed more unplanned silk sources; the other two formed a business team with Su Meng, starting with Xiangwu, combining phone calls and Mobai to explore potential customers one by one; at the same time, Yiwan International's contact information also appeared on the new European Yellow Pages, and the business model is evolving towards regularization.
Nanyi's current office is on the second floor of the bridgehead, and on the surface, it also performs the duties of the president of Green Nuclear Development and the boss of billions of international companies, and secretly takes care of other affairs of the Nan family.
At this moment, Nan Yi was talking about his ideas about the dream town in his office with Temasek's representative Li Jialong, co-creation space representative Lai?, and Kushner's representative Charles Kushner.
"Everyone, my idea is this. At present, the tallest building in China is the Shenzhen Guomao Building, with a height of 160 meters. The Yangcheng International Building under construction is 200.18 meters. The design height of our building must exceed that of the International Building. Only in this way can we maintain the title of the tallest building in China for a period of time.
This title has a great promotion to the plan of our dream town. Please see..." Nan Yi spread out an architectural design drawing on the table, "This is the style of the building I found someone to design. It was inspired by the coconut trees that can be seen everywhere in Coconut City, so I called it the Coconut Tree Building.
The design height of the Coconut Tree Building is 218 meters. The building looks thin and there are several coconut-shaped balls on the top, which are part of the damper;
The feathered branches and leaves of coconut trees are not physical. They are formed by refraction of light. Different weather conditions and different sunlight angles will make them present in different shapes and colors.
Whether it is the height of the Coconut Tree Building or its unique architectural shape, as long as the plan to build a building is exposed, I believe it will cause a sensation in China and even in Asia."
"Adam, what about after the sensation?" Kushner asked.
"Charles, have you seen the planning map of the dream town I asked someone to bring you?"
"certainly."
"Okay, then I won't repeat it anymore. Have you noticed the red dotted lines on the planning map?"
Nan Yi said, glanced at Kushner, then looked at Li Jialong, and then continued to say: "Along the red dotted line, the entire Dream Town will be divided. Except for the Biopharmaceutical Industrial Park that is independent of me, the other parts are part of the Dream Town plan, and the divided areas will be recruited in pieces.
Investment promotion is just a nice saying, but the correct statement should be to wait for the price. After the plan of Dream Town is hyped up and the land price begins to rise, the divided parts will be sold.
At this point, the first step of the plan is completed. Charles and Mr. Li, you two can choose to exit the Dream Town plan with profits at this node."
Li Jialong raised his hand and said, "Mr. Nan, how do you guarantee that the land price will be raised?"
"Mr. Li, I will ask Mr. Lai to answer this question." Nan Yi signaled Lai and said.
Lai? picked up a document on the table and opened it, "Mr. Li, Mr. Kushner, so far, the hot money poured into Qiong Province has been equivalent to RMB 3.7 billion, while less than 1.5 billion has been invested in actual projects, and more than 2.2 billion of hot money is still doing nothing in the bank."
"2.2 billion, is it where to go in Qiong Province? Or is it to find a suitable investment project in Qiong Province?" Nan Yi took over Lai? said: "The New York Times compared Qiong Province to the Wild West. There were gold and silver in the west in the 19th century. Qiong Province did not have these. Even if there were, these two things were not privately involved in China.
The funds have arrived, and no investor will watch the loss of time and capital retention costs. For Qiong Province, you cannot watch the flow of funds that have already come in. Mr. Li, if you think from the perspective of Qiong Province, where will you guide this fund?"
"Real estate." Li Jialong said without hesitation.
"Hmm." Nan Yi nodded and said, "The land in China is all state. If the real estate in Qiong Province can develop in an orderly manner, by transferring the land, Qiong Province can obtain the funds needed for development and from then on the fast lane of development.
However, as a test field, it is very difficult for Qiong Province to develop in an orderly manner. The test field is to test whether certain models can be passed. The country will not take action to regulate it until serious consequences are caused.
Florida is located in the south and has a warm climate. In the 1920s, the rich all like to go there for vacation in winter.
After World War I, a large amount of wealth flowed into the United States, the US economy developed rapidly, and the real estate industry also developed rapidly. At that time, Americans believed that the United States would prosper forever. This statement is very similar to the statement that "Japanese housing prices will never drop" proposed by the Japanese today."
After a faint smile, Nan Yi continued: "The rapid economic development has driven various industries and created a large number of demand for home purchases. Originally, housing prices were still rising normally, but 'smart money' appeared, making the entire market crazy and blind.
[smart �
Loans no longer test repayment ability, but focus on real estate prices. You can get a loan with just 10% down payment for a house. When getting rich overnight becomes a reality, even the most rational investors will be pulled into the market.
For a time, countless adventurers rushed to Florida, mixed with a large number of intermediaries and scammers - such as Charles Ponzi.
He divided a desolate piece of land into many small pieces and sold it to small investors, and promised to invest $10 to get a return of $30 in 60 days, which is more attractive than his early return voucher investment plan.
At the same time, a large number of celebrities and politicians came here to buy houses. A piece of land on Palm Beach was sold for US$800,000 in 1923, US$1.5 million in 1924, and up to US$4 million in 1925.
Compared with land, the price of houses has increased by even more astonishingly, and there are many cases where a house has increased by four times in a year.
During 1925 and 1926, the Florida real estate bubble entered its peak, with developers hiring bands and circuses to attract customers, and the sidewalks were simply out of reach because there were too many real estate agents recruiting business.
When I opened the newspaper, I saw all real estate advertisements.
At that time, you could pay a deposit to purchase a guarantee letter. If you paid a deposit, you didn’t have to really buy and sell the house. The guarantee letter would be traded soon and the person who handled it earned the difference.
These guarantee letters could be used as currency for one time and could be consumed in casinos, hotels, and nightclubs.
At the same time, something happened that had an important impact on the real estate bubble - Ford Motor Company's famous T-mobile car was released.
Loan policies and interest rates are loose, making it possible for more and more Americans to afford cars, driving to Florida, where the climate is warm and the land is cheap.
The rise in housing prices ushered in a new demand drive, which continued until September 1926, when a hurricane hit Florida.
After that, housing prices plummeted, and many people could not afford their mortgages and went bankrupt. The chain reaction began, selling, price cuts, bad bank debts, countless bankers and entrepreneurs turned from wealthy to beggars overnight, and civilians were even more impoverished, and many people never recovered in their entire lives."
Nanyi spread his hands and continued, "The two of you must know the story of Florida very clearly. The reason I tell this story is because I want to tell you that Coconut City and Florida are very similar.
Also in the south, it is also a good place for winter vacations, with a large amount of people, a vast space for hype, and a large amount of hot money to cruise here.
So, do you think the story of Florida will be repeated here?
Ha, this issue is not suitable for discussion now. I will send you two back to the hotel later. I will accompany you to the next two days to inspect Coconut City. After the inspection, I will give you a few days to learn about the situation in China. After a few days, we will continue to talk about it. How about it?"
“Ok.”
"I'm fine."
Kushner and Li Jialong replied separately, which also indicates that the conversation between the four people has come to an end for the time being.
He sent the person into Wanghai Tower. As soon as Nan Yi walked out of the hall, his pager rang.
In Coconut City, the satellite phone cannot be too scattered. If there is no pager, there is no one to find someone, so Nan Yi can only buy another pager.
When Nan Yi looked at the numbers displayed on the pager, he knew that it was Su Menghu, and he knew that someone was going to have an interview. He seized the time to rush back to the bridgehead, and Nan Yi entered the reception room on the first floor.
There are seven rooms, one bedroom and one living room, and Yiwan International has only used two rooms as offices for the moment. The remaining five rooms have a reception room, a conference room and a leisure room.
In the reception room, a young girl was sitting inside, which was very special.
The girl had a pretty face and a pure look. She had black sweat stains on her fair face. She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt. She also had canvas straps and work clothes in the factory in the past few years. There were two boxes at her feet, and one of them had the corners of a shoe repair machine.
"Do you have no clothes to change, or do you have a maverick and win by surprise?" After looking at the girl, Nan Yi asked jokingly.
"I saw your company's job advertisement on the sea wall today. When I saw that the corners of the paper had turned yellow, it should have been posted for a few days. I took the stall and rushed over. Please forgive me."
As soon as the girl opened her mouth, Nan Yi could hear that the other party was from the capital, which was quite strange. This was the first time he had heard the accent of the capital in Coconut City.
