Back to the villa.
It wasn’t even eleven o’clock.
Maruyama Miyuki had arrived early.
These days, she hadn’t accompanied them but was managing the family business instead. It wouldn’t be appropriate to leave everything for half a month and accompany Tang Qing with Maruyama Takeshi.
After greeting Tang Qing and the others, she left with Maruyama Takeshi.
The farewell dinner would be held in the evening.
After having tea for a while, Ge Feng took a call and then ca back to Tang Kai, "Boss Tang, that, do you have a good relationship with the upper class in Myanmar?" The question was as naïve as it could be.
Tang Kai was startled.
It felt like a request for help, and naturally, anyone who heard it would feel a twitch in their heart. Tang Kai was no exception.
"What’s up, Ge Shao?" Tang Kai had to ask for the details first.
Ge Feng was a bit embarrassed.
He said with a wry smile, "A cousin of mine went to Myanmar and wanted to develop residential housing and tourism there, but she ran into so difficulties. She wanted to inquire if it was possible to get a permit."
"Residential housing? Aside from the Myanmar Economic Zone, I don’t think there are restrictions on foreign capital, and for tourism, even in the Myanmar Economic Zone, there shouldn’t be any related restrictions," Tang Kai replied, puzzled.
He and Wangsa’s joint venture company was in construction.
Wei Jun was in the travel industry.
Regarding the policies of these two aspects, he wouldn’t claim to be an expert, but he certainly knew so basic regulations.
Regarding this issue.
Ge Feng provided an explanation.
It turned out that the area his cousin wanted to venture into wasn’t in the Myanmar Economic Zone. Everyone in Myanmar knew that it was Myanmar Bank’s territory, and it was impossible to make an exception for one person.
Elsewhere.
Generally, the construction of residential housing wasn’t restricted.
But.
What she wanted to do this ti was actually tourist real estate, in Delin Province on the southeast side of Myanmar.
The province had a long coastline, longer than the entire southern coast of Huaxia, boasting over eight hundred nearby islands.
Many of the islands were even larger than Thailand’s Phuket Island.
With excellent water quality.
A moist climate.
And a beautiful environnt.
...
One could say.
If developed, it would certainly be a great vacation spot.
Unfortunately.
In the past.
Myanmar did not pay much attention to tourism because the surrounding countries were all tourist-developed great powers. Below to the left were the Maldives, Singapore, Malaysia... To the right were Thailand, Hong Kong... Frankly, the location for tourism was quite awkward.
In the end.
They had to let go and not care about the broken pot... not breaking any further.
However.
That was in the past.
Now, the situation was totally different. Myanmar Pharmaceutical Group’s cancer treatnt had made tourism here unprecedentedly prominent, with patients among them being high-ranking officials and the wealthy, who controlled vast fortunes.
For the country and company that saved their lives, they surely had a special fondness. During the healing period, they had to stay in nice places, and during follow-up visits, they had to stay for a while.
Yet, high-end real estate in Myanmar was almost non-existent. This market gap desperately needed soone to fill it.
A business opportunity.
This was a business opportunity.
After listening to the explanation.
Tang Kai nodded repeatedly, indeed, considering what the Myanmar Pharmaceutical Group was doing, it could definitely stimulate the high-end residential market.
In the past few days.
The villa-type resort hotels he built in Inner Myanmar had already attracted more than a dozen buyers. They wanted to purchase at a high price, and if sold, he could have made a profit more than double, at least a hundred million RMB.
However.
Tang Kai’s original intention for building the villa hotel wasn’t to make money, but to provide accommodation for his family.
In the end.
Of course, he refused the offer.
Hearing this, Tang Kai was sowhat tempted. It seed there was no reason to miss such an opportunity to pick up money.
"Did she ask the local governnt? Where’s the difficulty?" Tang Kai asked.
"She did, Delin Province is very supportive, but since the beginning of August, Ling has ordered a freeze on the approval of coastal tourist real estate and projects in Myanmar. My cousin’s information is that they are very likely to digest it internally," Ge Feng explained.
"Internal digestion," Tang Kai murmured.
It was like.
Also in line with Ling’s style.
Fat does not flow to others’ fields, and with many powers and family factions within Myanmar, they were not qualified to share in the pharmaceutical cake, all consud by Ling alone, which inevitably required so balance in other areas.
"My cousin’s intention is to obtain access qualifications, not to be left with only a small nibble at the edges," Ge Feng continued, then emphasized, "If it’s too much trouble, forget it. She just asked to inquire on her behalf."
Tang Kai nodded.
"I’m not too familiar with this matter, let ask around."
"Good."
Then.
Checking the ti, he made a call.
"Brother Miao," Tang Kai called affectionately.
Miao Yin.
Every ti he visited Inner Myanmar, he would pay a visit to this Chinese descendant of Myanmar.
He was one of the first mbers of the Myanmar Asia Chamber of Comrce, and the only Chinese family among them. His eldest son was promoted to the mayor of Inner Myanmar after Ling’s succession.
After Ling’s successful re-election and firm position, due to aligning with the right team, he gained another promotion.
--- Director of the Myanmar Economic Developnt and Reform Commission.
Equivalent to a minister, this was an important departnt. When Ling served as deputy leader, this was the only departnt he oversaw.
So crucial that.
Despite having so many deputy leaders, Ling never let it go.
He was directly responsible for it all along, and it was one of the few departnts he oversaw directly. Many speculated that this departnt would be a stepping stone for Myanmar ministers to ascend to deputy leadership roles in the future.
Because.
Ling had unprecedentedly strengthened his control over this departnt.
It beca the linchpin for Myanmar’s economic order. Almost all major economic activities, from new city construction to a small town’s street landscape design, had to go through this departnt.
The aim was clear.
To control the overall developnt direction and ensure the stability of the economic order.
With an invisible hand.
To force market intervention.
So people believed.
Such control would drain the vitality of a national economy.
But in reality, it has shown that proper and strong control can protect the interests of most people.
If it were like the United States.
Just the construction of a railway could drag on for more than a decade, ultimately leading nowhere, which would truly be ridiculous.
Tang Kai felt.
This matter was best asked of Miao Yin, as Delin Province’s interests, no matter how great, must pass through the commission.
"Boss Tang, what’s up?" Miao Yin laughed heartily.
Tang Kai liked this direct approach, "Indeed, I have a matter. I wanted to inquire about the tourism industry in Delin Province, whether Ling has already allocated it. You know, I can’t ask him about such trivial things."
Miao Yin understood.
"I heard there might be a possibility of this, but my son hasn’t given a precise answer."
"I see. I’m just asking for a friend; if possible, it would be nice to make so money," Tang Kai stated.
"If this matter involves Ling, then we’ll have to wait. You know, no one dares to suggest to Ling whom to give it to."
Miao Yin’s son also told him not to inquire recklessly. If there really was a piece of the cake, Ling would definitely not forget their family.
