Chapter 1679 Gu Xichao's Problem (11 more)
"Compared to those drugs for treating cancer, the price of this drug is a bit low." Gu Xichao said.

"Cancer is a fatal disease. Needless to say, it costs tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, and patients are willing to spend it. But herpes is fatal, so few people are willing to spend a lot of money. But that kind of neuralgia can destroy a person. Human will is very scary." Liu Tao said, frowning.

"That's true. So, wouldn't Shenhua Pharmaceutical Company have another income?" Gu Xichao asked.

"Yes." Liu Tao nodded and said with a smile, "The island city finance can also receive a sum of money."

"I don't know how much this money can be. If there is more money, it can be used for other things." Gu Xichao said.

"Do something else? I don't understand what you mean." Liu Tao asked.

"The island city is preparing to host the Olympic Games. It is currently in the process of applying." Gu Xichao said.

"Didn't the capital just hold it?" Liu Tao asked.

"Yes. The capital held it seven years ago." Gu Xichao nodded.

"Since the capital city has held the event, why is it the island city's turn to apply?" Liu Tao asked in surprise.

"Didn't you watch the news?" Gu Xichao asked somewhat dumbfounded.

"No. I rarely watch the news now." Liu Tao shook his head and said.

"The host city of the Olympic Games has already been decided in Greece. But now Greece has a big financial problem, and it is simply not capable of hosting such a large-scale Olympic event. So Greece chose to give up. In this way, it gave Opportunities in other cities." Gu Xichao said.

"I know that there is a financial problem in the country. What do you think is the chance that the island city will host the Olympics?" Liu Tao asked.

"It's really hard to say. The current competitors are also quite strong. However, the island city used to be a sub-venue for the Olympic Games and has some experience, which is an advantage." Gu Xichao said.

"Then fight for it. It is a good thing to host the Olympic Games. If you need help, just ask." Liu Tao said.

"The first thing is to carry out a large-scale renovation. The current venues simply cannot meet the requirements." Gu Xichao said.

"This is what it should be. Doesn't the capital support the island city's application to host the Olympics?" Liu Tao asked.

"Support is definitely there. But the support is very limited. As long as the source of funds is available, it still needs to be resolved by the island city itself." Gu Xichao said.

"Approximately how much will it cost? Has the budget been made?" Liu Tao asked.

"The total investment needs about 90 billion U.S. dollars. If converted into Huaxia currency, it will be about 550 billion U.S. dollars." Gu Xichao replied.

"So much? Can the cost be recovered?" Liu Tao was taken aback.

"It will definitely not be recovered in a short period of time. Judging from the income of the latest Olympic Games, it can bring in almost 40 billion US dollars in income. As for the rest, it can only be recovered slowly through other means." Gu Xichao replied.

"However, this is a good opportunity to promote the island city to the world. The number of tourists visiting the island city will definitely increase." Liu Tao said.

"Yes. Yes. The popularity of the island city will be greatly improved." Gu Xichao nodded.

"According to the conventional means of financing, the island city should be the main source of financing, right? At that time, the municipal finance will repay the financing." Liu Tao asked.

"Yes."

"Financing will definitely require cost. Of course, since Daocheng is developing so well now, financing is not a difficult task. Do you mean to let me take the lead?" Liu Tao asked.

"Yes. If you come forward, financing will become relatively easy." Gu Xichao said.

"It's definitely okay for me to come forward. After all, this is a good thing. Whether it is for Daocheng or Dongshan Province, it is a good opportunity to show myself to the world." Liu Tao said.

"That's good. As long as the financing problem is solved, the project can start." Gu Xichao said.

"Start work? Before the application is successful, is it too early to start work?" Liu Tao asked.

"It's always necessary to show sincerity. After all, the current island city is not yet qualified to host large-scale Olympic events." Gu Xichao said.

"That's true. But if we start working now, the risks we need to bear are actually quite big." Liu Tao said.

"Yes."

"If the risk is too high, financing will be difficult. Otherwise, there is no need to bother others to raise funds. I will pay the 550 billion yuan alone. When the city finance has money, just return it to me." Liu Tao thought After a moment, he said.
"Ah? Are you kidding me? This is 550 billion!" Gu Xichao was startled.

"Of course I'm not joking. 550 billion is indeed a big number. But I should still be able to take out this amount of money in my hand." Liu Tao said.

"I don't even know what to say. Don't worry, the city finance will definitely pay back the money. Of course, the time may be a little longer. But I can guarantee that before I leave office, the debt will definitely be paid back. Return it." Gu Xichao said.

"I know. Since I am willing to pay the money, there is nothing to worry about." Liu Tao laughed.

"Besides, there is something else that needs your help." Gu Xichao said.

"You said."

"As the city spokesperson of the island city. If we want to succeed in the application this time, we must have a well-known city spokesperson, and this person must be from the island city. You are so well-known that I don't need to say more. In addition, you are also from Daocheng, which is very suitable for our requirements." Gu Xichao said.

"That's okay. If you need my cooperation, call me in advance." Liu Tao readily agreed.

"That's it! Leave the rest to our professional team." Gu Xichao said.

"Uncle Gu, you seem to be very concerned about this application to host the Olympic Games!" Liu Tao said meaningfully.

"Yes! For me, this is a very brilliant stroke. After all, not every city has the opportunity to host such a large-scale event as the Olympic Games. If I am in office, I can host an Olympic Games, even if it is It doesn't matter if you retire immediately." Gu Xichao said.

"Indeed. Only the capital city of China has held it once. The remaining countries are basically held in the capital. Many small countries do not even have the qualifications to participate in the competition." Liu Tao said.

"Yes! So if I can accomplish this, my life will not be considered in vain." Gu Xichao said.

"I understand. I will fully support you." Liu Tao said.
