Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1092 Boldly Suggest

"Last year, our SZ city carried out 7 connections and one leveling, and borrowed 6.5 million yuan from the bank..." Li Hao talked to Duan Yun about the current municipal renovation situation in Shenzhen.

It turned out that in order to improve the investment environment, the SZ municipal government carried out "seven connections and one leveling" in 1985, borrowing 6.5 million yuan from the bank, and repaying 5000 million yuan in interest every year.

From 1981 to 1987, the SZ municipal government expropriated and allocated 82 square kilometers of state-owned land, of which only 17 square kilometers could collect land use fees.The land use fees collected totaled about 4000 million yuan, which was not enough to repay the interest. Now that the new area needs to be developed, the SZ city government also has to repay the interest.

Generally speaking, Li Hao would not talk about these things to people outside the government, but Duan Yun's donation to municipal projects moved him very much today, so he also expressed his feelings today and talked about his own thoughts .

"...I heard that your Tianyin Electronics Factory has developed very rapidly over the past year. Last year, you applied for industrial land twice from our land bureau. If your company still needs it, you can apply to the city government again. Application, our municipal government will also relax the relevant industrial land application standards..." Li Hao said to Duan Yun.

In fact, it is also very difficult for Li Hao to be the mayor.

His original intention was to hope that Duan Yun could contribute more funds for municipal construction, but he could not force companies to contribute this money, and Li Hao also understood that private companies like Duan Yun must have their own reasons for investing in municipal construction. Li Hao has never naively believed that there are companies that will contribute unconditionally to the society. Some companies, including Duan Yun, are willing to contribute money and efforts to the municipal government. They just want to seek some "care" from the government for their companies. , but if Duan Yun's investment is too large, and the city government can't give them more benefits in return, then enterprises will definitely lose their enthusiasm for investment in the construction of the city government, and there will be no other enterprises "generously donating" in the future .

It is precisely because of this that Li Hao also learned about Duan Yun's business operations, and learned that they have a great demand for industrial land, so this time he offered to provide them with another piece of industrial land.

It's just that some words can't be too clear, smart people only need to hint.

This is already the only "reward" that Li Hao can offer at present.

"Thank you Mayor Li for your support to our factory!" Duan Yun said gratefully.

As for industrial land, Duan Yun is of course the more the better, because in the future he will also plan to build VCD and DVD production lines, and the scale of the factory will become larger and larger, which will definitely require more and more industrial land.

But now more and more companies come to Shenzhen to set up factories, including the industrial land in the Shangbu Industrial Zone where Duan Yun is located. A large amount of industrial land ensures the expansion and development of enterprises in the future.

"In addition, there is still a lot of land on my side that can be leased to your factory, which can be used to build staff dormitories and warehouses. The price can be more favorable for your company." Li Hao continued at this time.

It may be difficult for people in the market outlook to imagine that the majestic mayor of SZ City will also face the situation of having nothing to eat.

In fact, at the beginning of the development of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, it has been facing the problem of lack of funds. At the beginning, a 0.8 square kilometer Luohu community was planned and later expanded to 1.1 square kilometers. It needed 3 million funds, but the state gave 3 million. Loans, others must be settled by themselves.

When Li Hao came to Shenzhen last year, because of the municipal government's 7-way and one-leveling project, the bank borrowed 5.6 million yuan, and Shenzhen's fiscal revenue last year was only nearly [-] million yuan, and a large amount of funding vacancies could not be filled.

In order to be able to pay off the bank loan interest, Liang Xiang, the former mayor, has thought of many ways, one of which is to lease land to foreign capital and joint ventures through land leasing and collect land use fees. In [-], it also became the main source of construction funds for the SZ city government at that time.

This time I took the initiative to propose to Duan Yun that I could lease the land to him. On the one hand, I wanted to help Duan Yun solve the problem of lack of land, and on the other hand, I wanted to collect some rent from it to alleviate some of the current financial difficulties.

"If the geographical location is suitable, I am willing to lease a piece of land for building a warehouse." Duan Yun made a statement immediately.

At present, the production capacity of Duanyun Electronics Factory is very large. Since the transportation is far less developed than that of later generations, some goods cannot be transported away immediately after production, but must be temporarily stored in the warehouse for a period of time. Renting factories in other parts of the industrial zone to store goods, but relatively speaking, warehouse rents are relatively high, and Duan Yun will often face the problem of price increases from owners, especially now that more and more companies need factories, causing the owners of these warehouses to take advantage of the opportunity Duan Yun has been slaughtered more than once for driving up rent.

And if the city government can lease the land for them at this time, Duan Yun can save a lot of rent by building a factory in this area, which is a very cost-effective thing.

"Okay, I'll talk to the director of the Land Management Bureau later and ask them to rent some land for your factory cheaply." Li Hao said.

"Actually...Mayor Li, can I give you some advice?" Duan Yun said suddenly.

"You don't need to meet with me anymore, just tell me if you have anything else to say." Li Hao said with a smile and glanced at Duan Yun.

"That's right. I think our city government's finances are so difficult now. Why can't we sell land for money?" Duan Yun asked.

"Sell the land? Do you know what you're talking about?" Li Hao never expected that Duan Yun would make such a suggestion, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Now, it is normal for the municipal government to sell land and developers to buy and build houses, but in the 80s, this was absolutely illegal.

Even if the SZ city government leased land to some enterprises, it actually chose to open up to Hong Kong businessmen and foreign-funded enterprises through trade compensation as a "side-by-side" method to obtain funds for foreign real estate development. The Shenzhen government provided the land, and Hong Kong companies contributed funds to build house, the profits are shared by both parties.
