Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 1038 Catch up with the development of the times

"As for the aviation industry, try to lure Gulfstream here. What do you think? It's just that they have an agreement with Savannah. I'm not completely sure now. Their agreement has expired. If not, they may be giving preferential treatment. In addition to policies, we also need to find a way to communicate with the Savannah City Government, or in other words, simply prepare a liquidated damages!"

Putting the future aside for the time being, Carter continued to mutter with Benjamin about Douglas' urban development plan amidst the background noise of the TV.

In fact, there is no need to talk too much about what is there and what is not, the general environment is here.The whole of Georgia and Florida are aviation industry zones in the federal planning. If you don't do this business, what do you want to do? !

Although no one stipulates that you must do this, a large number of related companies gather here.When you do this business, from all aspects, such as raw material procurement, supporting processing, logistics and transshipment, each of them is the most convenient compared to other places.You can’t do well in the most convenient and best industries, so why do you think you can do well in other industries?

And think of industrial support and logistics transshipment.Carter suddenly had a flash of inspiration:
"Hey, by the way, I suddenly thought of a question. Have you noticed, these years, those industrial equipment manufacturing companies opened in Georgia, including some large-scale transportation machinery manufacturers? Has their number increased? "

"Yes! Or, there will definitely be. In the Marietta factory, those trailers, tractors, and the vehicles needed to transport the rocket casings at the Kennedy Space Center, etc., these should be the large-scale transportation you mentioned Machinery? Or, some special vehicles? And some cranes and so on."

"That's right, it's this part. These things, I think, are also a direction we can consider. These heavy industrial equipment manufacturing companies have a large factory area, and ours happens to be a plain! The land is organized in advance , about leveling. The cost should not be high for the initial processing of the land. We first find out the land suitable for these enterprises to settle down, and then formulate some preferential policies. I think it should be able to attract some enterprises to settle in. "

"Relying on tax incentives alone, I have tried in the past few years, and it is quite difficult. I can only make decisions on municipal taxation. At most, I can communicate with the state and reduce or exempt part of the state tax. This is already the limit of what I can do. Yes, but relying on such a little tax incentives alone, we don’t have the supply of relevant talents here, and the supporting industries also need nothing, so the attraction is not strong.”

If you want to get involved in heavy industry, not to mention more, at least some majors such as industrial design, hydraulic transmission, etc., your local school must be able to open it, right?And Georgia South College, a community college, is almost a liberal arts major in what should be called a junior college in China.

What literature, business, management, etc., are all low-cost majors.Even if it wants to train some skilled workers who can operate those industrial equipment, this school can't do it.

This also means that if those factories choose to settle in Douglas, they will either have to hire workers from other places, or endure a longer and more costly training cycle locally to teach those local people who have no foundation to learn to operate those equipments. .

No matter which method you choose, it is more convenient and faster than being able to recruit ready-made qualified workers locally and every year!

In terms of preferential policies, the Douglas City Government can actually do very little.

Municipal taxation, which already accounts for a small proportion of the federal three-tier taxation.In the past, during the Republican period, it was another era of tax cuts, especially the exaggerated tax cuts for large companies.At this time, the tax reduction or exemption you get may not be as good as the reconstruction of the factory after they come here, including the increase in employment costs.

In other places, the credibility of the guaranteed loans of the municipal government is not as high as that of the federal government.Help is definitely helpful, but it does not help some companies that are in desperate need of funds to get the sufficient amount of loans they need.Even the black flag under Carter cannot cooperate.
On the one hand, the funds saved by the black flag were often embezzled by commercial banks in the past.On the other hand, it is a matter of risk weighting. Once the proportion and scale of guaranteed loans issued by local municipal governments are increased, this part of the money will not be able to support Carter's other industries, and even an additional wave of cash will be locked up to meet the needs of the government. Regulatory requirements for reserve ratios and capital adequacy ratios.After all, it is completely worth the candle.

"It's hard to do, but you have to find a way to do it. Try it? For example, talk to Gulfstream. After the airport is completed, take out a separate runway and give it to them for free for a few years. Besides, I will give it a try. Let’s start with the atmosphere of aviation. Just like Florida, there are six airports in Orlando alone. Even in some communities, there are suggested runways for those sports planes to take off and land.”

"I think this is a point we should learn! When we have this atmosphere, we will start from a small place. There will be more private aircrafts. At that time, related maintenance will also develop, and then some aviation material warehouses will come. Then some small manufacturers come over and let us learn how to create demand!"

Chujiao 6, oh no, the Yak 18 has now gone to the FAA for airworthiness certification.If there is no accident, the airworthiness certificate can be obtained within three months. Once the airworthiness certificate is obtained, these cheap small planes will flood into Douglas very quickly!

A small plane that costs more than 2 yuan, I want to form a group effect in Douglas, or to organize some flying clubs here, hire some flight instructors, teach those who are interested in flying, and learn to fly these planes, Carter I don't think it's difficult.Even excluding hobbies, such as pine forest patrol, aerial irrigation, etc., at worst, the city government will take the lead and provide certain subsidies to some farmers who use aerial irrigation to sprinkle pesticides.

This market cycle appears!

The Douglas city government first subsidizes aerial irrigation with municipal income, allowing farmers to choose this more efficient method; if people choose, there will be a demand for pilots, so that after learning to fly, in addition to satisfying hobbies, they can also get A part-time or higher paying full-time job.This will drive more people to join in. Carter believes that within a few years, this atmosphere will appear in Douglas!
After Douglas has a large number of small aircraft, including small aircraft pilots, the aircraft maintenance market and aviation parts market here will also appear.
Then, taking advantage of the fact that the aviation material warehouse is concentrated in Douglas, and supporting the surrounding logistics, this is another direction that can be developed.In other words, after the logistics demand soars, the number of trucks coming and going, and even the demand for some special transport vehicles with large items such as transshipment wings will also increase.

After such a chain of events, Douglas will be able to gradually keep up with the development of the Georgia era!
