Very soon.
This place will beco busy.
"Second Uncle."
"Hmm?"
Pointing at the enclosure wall in the distance.
"I suggest we just connect it directly, start from that wall, and head west for five kiloters, buy it all up," Tang Qing said ambitiously. While others buy land by the acre, he asured in kiloters; after all, it’s not expensive.
Wasteland.
Uninhabited.
How expensive could it be?
"Sure."
Tang Kai readily agreed.
Then asked:
"But, with such a large area, will it be fully utilized?" Five kiloters, if the depth is five hundred ters, that’s 2.5 square kiloters. Not to ntion the testing base, you could even build an airport runway.
Better too much than too little.
"It’s possible."
Tang Qing nodded with a smile.
"Testing, maintenance, assembly, living space, all need places. I plan to dig a very large pond. This way, we can avoid always having to apply to relevant departnts for testing."
In his mind.
Tang Qing already had a plan.
ters wide.
Three kiloters long.
Large enough.
Broad enough.
Long enough.
You can play however you like. Huaxia’s seas aren’t so easy to navigate. Water equipnt is one thing, but underwater equipnt, especially large manned ones akin to submarines, is another.
"How big?"
Tang Kai asked curiously.
Unexpectedly,
after hearing the specifications, he was speechless.
"..."
Alright then.
If you calculate it this way, the five-kiloter-long area doesn’t seem that big. As long as Tang Qing likes it, it’s fine. Anyway, there’s money; Qingyuan Technology’s profit this year might break through a hundred billion RMB, so losing a few million isn’t a problem.
A pond.
Though large,
at most it would cost a few hundred million. Tonight, with just closing and opening his eyes, Tang Qing’s company could earn it back. If you calculate it, every breath ans an inco of ten thousand yuan.
Terrifying!
"Since it’s decided, I’ll contact the county."
...
Very soon.
The county sent soone over.
Still, it was the leader who ca. Upon seeing Tang Qing, he was naturally enthusiastic. Hearing about purchasing such a large piece of land, he agreed without a second thought. Year-round, no enterprises invest here.
Having Tang Kai was hard enough.
Was already joyous.
Now,
even Tang Qing wants to co over, it’s simply a great piece of news. Opening this opportunity, who knows if other enterprises might follow? It’s uncertain, but it’s worth hoping for, the thought alone is joyous.
"Rest assured."
"We will certainly offer the best discounts."
He promised.
Discount?
Honestly,
he even wanted to give away the land for free, as leaving it there was of no use. Although the testing base isn’t a production enterprise and practically won’t bring in taxes, it does bring in project construction.
With construction,
there’s GDP.
Naturally,
there’s also achievent.
"I wonder, how big is the investnt?"
"500 million."
"Hiss!"
He was shocked.
million RMB could cover ten years of tasks for the county; he was so excited that his face turned red, "Thank you, thank you, Boss Tang, for supporting my county." This money was truly beyond expectations.
Envious?
Raise the land price?
Don’t dare.
The status of the person in front of them—if he dared to play like that, people like Tang Qing could easily change places. They didn’t know how many provinces and cities would rush to attract him. They weren’t fighting over that 500 million, but the connection with Tang Qing.
If that were to happen,
the province wouldn’t just watch; they’d surely ask about him.
"Tomorrow, there will be a team going to the county. You can discuss the details then."
"Alright, alright."
Even happier now.
Indeed.
Tang Qing’s efficiency, as rumored, was high. He does what he decides right away, never hesitating. After that, he rushed back to the county to report this great news to other county leaders.
"Tang Qing?"
"Really?"
"Of course, he said it himself."
"Great!"
"Haha, worth celebrating."
"..."
The county was buzzing.
Tang Qing, though young, had an impeccable reputation; once he said sothing himself, it wouldn’t change. Such fortune, being at ho and investnt just falls from the sky.
And it’s a large sum.
Subsequently,
they reported to the city, not formally, since they hadn’t even discussed it. It was rely to ntion it in routine, otherwise waiting until the project lands before reporting wouldn’t align with the rules.
"Confird?"
"Confird."
"Well done, make sure to push this through."
"Understood."
"As for the land transfer price, just charge a symbolic amount."
"Yes."
The city was also pleased and gave a stream of instructions.
Then,
they reported to the province with the sa directives: make sure the investnt lands without a hitch. Although it’s rely a testing base, it’s for high-tech testing, making it very valuable.
...
It didn’t take long.
The news spread.
"Indeed, Tang Qing didn’t go there to play; he went for work."
"I feel for my dear Tang."
"Yes, yes!"
"Five hundred million... is it a lot?"
"What do you think?"
"Alright, in the past few years, investnts of hundreds of billions, even trillions, have numbed ." This statent echoed the sentints of many netizens, known as the ’Tang Qing effect.’
"After seeing the great wide world!"
"Exactly."
"That’s how it feels, but I’m very curious, what will be tested at the base, and why at the seaside? If it’s testing ships, his second uncle’s shipyard is ready-made, isn’t it?"
"Perplexing."
"I agree."
"It doesn’t matter, it must be sothing interesting. What I love most is Tang Qing’s idealism. Last year, he spoke about unmanned supermarkets, and in less than half a year, it’s heard that major malls are all being decorated."
"So fast."
"Indeed."
"In Tang Qing’s words, this is born for idealism; it will most likely incur losses. Once launched, everyone should try to support it, allowing such idealism to endure longer."
"Definitely."
"Certainly."
"Count in."
"I also want to experience it."
"Desire."
"That’s such a fitting word, what one desires, what the heart desires."
"..."
An outpouring of support.
Last year,
on the day of the park’s opening, Tang Qing already ntioned the unmanned supermarket project wasn’t for profit, but rely to do sothing interesting, and he used ’desire’ to interpret the park’s culture.
Now,
half a year has passed, and the project has entered the substantive stage.
Truly,
it’s so fast,
unforeseen and yet unbelievably anticipated. What interesting products will Tang Qing’s testing base have; they believe it won’t be ordinary, as Tang Qing himself never treaded common paths.
...
Shipyard,
by the seaside,
savoring lunch in the sea breeze, Tang Qing’s designed shipyard, naturally was beyond reproach. The cafeteria was made like a restaurant; Tang Kai, not short on money, didn’t alter a thing and had everything built.
While eating,
Tang Qing watched the liveliness.
After solving the problem of mobile paynts, unmanned supermarkets only need to solve two issues: firstly, the transaction product recognition system, secondly, anti-theft. Technological challenges aren’t many.
Hence, progress was very fast.
By plan,
by the end of April, the day before May Day holiday, there will be thirty-six unmanned supermarkets opening, mainly in the capitals and municipalities, mostly set in Jinghua Square.
No rent.
This way,
losses will be reduced sowhat.
