Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

The enthusiasm of the citizens of New Haven deeply impressed the expert team of the Forestry Department who went abroad for the first time.

The welcome dinner hosted by Mr. Mayor flattered this group of experts who have not yet felt the cultural differences between China and the United States.Carter didn't have any idea about this. As far as the United States is concerned, as long as it can be given to him, it can bring benefits to the local area.
What kind of mayor and governor have to revolve around you!

The status of officials in the United States, with the fluctuation of the economic environment, it is called a thriving.
When he heard that these people have the decision-making power to decide whether the giant panda, this gold-absorbing beast, can come to the United States, and whether it can come to New Haven, the mayor is actually more excited than them, and pays more attention to this meeting.
"Mr. Black, thank you for your hospitality these days. After our inspection, New Haven is suitable for our national treasure giant pandas to live and live most of the time. But in winter, the living temperature that giant pandas need is usually at 10°-22°, and around 5° can be tolerated. But the lowest temperature in winter here is minus 4°”

"This may require you to install some additional high-power air conditioners for them to maintain the temperature. In addition, a large pool needs to be added in the panda house. Giant pandas like a humid environment, and the humidity is preferably 35-50 degrees. It’s okay in summer, we checked the data in the archives here over the years, and there are very few local high temperatures in New Haven that exceed 28 degrees.”

"In terms of livability, the conditions here are not worse than those of the National Zoo in Washington, and even better from some perspectives. It's just the cost of feeding."

"Don't worry about this! You have also seen how popular the giant pandas are here. The people who come to visit them will pay enough tickets for me to raise them up for nothing!"

After three anxious days passed, Carter finally heard the conclusion that made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Compared with the National Zoo in Washington, which is located in the central and eastern United States, relatively speaking, in terms of temperature, Carter has been worried that New Haven's latitude is too high, and then
Although Douglas also has a backup panda house, but in terms of intuitive income, Douglas is not as good as the current New Haven after all.The base of land price is not at the same level, nor is the population density
In the 80s, there was no saying that Lan left New York, but that Lan went to New York, which was the mainstream of public thinking.

What is it to just install an air conditioner and dig a pond? !

"Well, not only this, but also food. There are many varieties of bamboo, but generally there are only eight kinds of bamboo that wild giant pandas can eat. After we have cultivated giant pandas in captivity, the types of edible bamboo have increased, but the United States currently has As far as we know, bamboo that can be eaten by giant pandas is only grown in Maryland!"

"When Xingxing and Lingling first came to the United States, they had no appetite for bamboo produced in the United States."

"I know this. I remember that there was a lot of trouble here at the time. We were looking for bamboo everywhere. It seems that we found bamboo that giant pandas love to eat from a family in Maryland."

"Yes, but the bamboo grown by individuals obviously cannot meet the food needs of giant pandas. The Washington National Zoo has opened up its own bamboo forest to grow this kind of bamboo, but now"

...

Director Lin looked at Carter, the meaning was self-evident
"You mean, their current output"

"That's right, it would be great if their current output can sustain Xingxing and Lingling's food consumption. It's unrealistic to expect them to supply you here. My personal suggestion is that you need to establish a panda house as soon as possible." In the bamboo garden, during the few years when the bamboo grew, the food for giant pandas basically depended on imports.”

"Okay, tell me, how much do I need to pay for these bamboos?"

As soon as Carter slapped his forehead, he knew that giant pandas are difficult to serve. This can be regarded as psychological preparation
It's just bamboo, buy it, buy it!
"Let me do the math for you. The daily food intake of an adult giant panda is about 12-20 kilograms of bamboo. We can use this, but we can't do without it. On the basis of 20 kilograms, two pandas can get 40 kilograms of bamboo a day. A year It needs 14.6 tons of bamboo, together with some bamboo shoots, and after three years, it will be calculated as 50 tons. $880 per ton!"

"Huh? How much did you say?!"

Carter fiddled with his ears, wondering if he was hallucinating.

80 dollars a ton, 50 tons in three years, which is only .4000?

As for the matter of four thousand dollars, is it so serious? !
"If it's not $[-], or $[-], it's fine!"

"This does not include shipping"

"It's okay, I'll take care of it. How much is the shipping cost for fifty tons of bamboo?"

"The shipping fee will not be very low. To ensure the freshness of the bamboo, the transportation can only be done by air, and you have to fly every few days. This cost is very high!"

Director Lin quietly wiped off his cold sweat, and indeed he was quoting the higher price of bamboo.but the shipping price
"I can help you take the lead and negotiate an agreed freight rate with Air China, but after three years, in terms of shipping, the cost is estimated to be no less than $[-]."

"It's okay, I can afford the money."

"Then there's no problem, and we trust you as a person. Then let's sign the agreement?"

In addition to solving the most important rigid needs such as temperature, humidity, and food where giant pandas live, Carter naturally cannot include the rest of the supporting medical care.

In addition to paying the rent deposit, various goods and service purchases are also listed on the contract simultaneously.Carter roughly calculated the cost, and after excluding the water, electricity and labor of the venue, the cost simply paid for the two giant pandas is nearly [-] million US dollars per year
And after spending this sum of money, the journey of spending money is far from over.

The realization of pandas depends on the development of surrounding land, and to set off the land price, does the market sentiment have to be speculated?
When $[-] was poured down, people in New York, Boston, and the surrounding Rhode Island state all saw the news on TV.
In February 83, Connecticut will usher in the news of a permanent pair of giant pandas.In addition, Yale University also announced that it will build an international giant panda research and protection cooperation center around the Giant Panda Pavilion.
The city government of New Haven followed closely with the West Haven development plan, and even inspired by Carter, directly threw out the bird's-eye view
West Haven in the bird's eye view is a paradise on earth: the bright sunshine falls on a green land of West Haven, and parks, zoos, amusement parks, and schools are located in that small area.
There are peaceful and bright smiles on the faces of passers-by
After a busy and exhausting day of work, people who saw this advertisement saw the short video of giant pandas inserted in the news, with its naive appearance, bright sunshine, and relaxed life
Carter is not sure whether the advertisement can attract the real so-called high-net-worth people, but he is sure that this advertisement will definitely attract the attention of businessmen!
