For the development of Tai Po New Town adjacent to kaohsien industrial estate, kaohsien is indeed full of enthusiasm, but making a lot of money is not the main reason.

In fact, although most of the land reserves derived from the acquisition of milk companies have been developed, including the stripping of the core assets of Huangpu dock and the land reserve of Xiangjiang electric lamp old power plant, are also high-quality development projects, and you can also bid for land auction. In a word, Gao's Consortium does not worry about making a lot of money in the real estate field.

However, none of these can replace the significance of developing Tai Po new town. After all, building a residential community is certainly not comparable to building a satellite city.

At the bottom of Gaoxian's heart, since Gaoxian industrial estate has been built, people will leave their names behind, and wild geese will leave their names behind. By developing the adjacent Tai Po New Town, they will completely engrave their names into this historical era of Xiangjiang.

You know, many places in Xiangjiang are related to people's names.

For example, at the beginning of this century, the hill where Zhou Shouchen, a famous Chinese leader in Xiangjiang, lived was named "Shouchen mountain", and the road around the mountain was named "Shoushan Village Road" to commend Zhou Shouchen's contribution to Xiangjiang.

Even William Jardine, an opium dealer who played an ignominious role in the Opium War, has places named after Jardine hill, Jardine street, Jardine square and so on in Xiangjiang.

Kao Hsin cherishes the Kao Hsin Industrial Estate and loves the neighbouring Tai Po new town.

In other words, before the formal launch of the Tai Po new town development plan this year, the Koch consortium did a lot of actions in Tai Po, including the cooperative development of the public housing estate Tai Yuen Estate. Now it is nothing more than that the "canvas" has become larger and has to accommodate at least 220000 people.

The Hong Kong government's planning outline for the development of Tai Po new town will have to wait a few months before it can be officially put forward. Fortunately, the Gao consortium can now start operation in the name of the leader.

At this stage, in the Xiangjiang real estate industry, the cooperation of many companies has gradually become a trend. When happy industry develops the new town of Tai Po, it will not refuse the participation of its peers. After all, eating alone is hated.

Gao Xianzheng is busy "digesting food", and the news from Britain and the United States has aroused his great concern.

Let's start with the news from Britain, that is, just a few days after Hong Kong Governor MacLehose went to the mainland, British prime minister James Callahan was ousted by the no confidence motion of the house of Commons, and the general election will be held in early may more than a month later.

According to Gao Xian's observation, the collapse of James Callahan's government, unlike before, only means the end of a round of the Zhengzhi game, which may indicate that the labor party is too weak to win the opportunity to form a cabinet again in the British political arena in the next ten years.

Because the unhappy winter in Britain last year dealt a very serious blow to the Labour Party, it is not too much to describe it as a great loss of people. How can we face the upcoming general election?

Gao Xian couldn't help thinking that he would go to the UK to further manage relations as soon as possible, so as to increase chips for sharing the cake of privatization of British state-owned companies.

As for the news from the United States, it is an energy accident, that is, the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant on the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania suffered a partial core meltdown, which has become the most serious accident in the history of commercial nuclear power in the United States.

Decades after the information in the "old script" developed, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident in the Soviet Union and the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident are widely known all over the world. The Three Mile Island nuclear power plant accident in the United States has little popularity, which is due to the fact that the Americans are lucky enough that the nuclear reactor containment of the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant has played an expected protective role.

In this era, anti nuclear groups have had great social influence. The accident of the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant triggered a movement of 200000 people in New York, putting great pressure on the development of commercial nuclear power.

Moreover, the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant accident happened at an unfortunate time, just in time for the second world oil crisis.

To put it bluntly, the reason why the world oil crisis is called the world oil crisis is mainly because the American people can't afford fuel, and then it is called the world oil crisis.

Now, nuclear energy, which is regarded as a clean energy that can partially replace fossil energy such as oil, is deeply feared by people. Isn't oil going to be hyped in the world oil crisis?

After synthesizing the information gathered, Gao Xian instructed the investment department, especially in the United States, not to touch the stocks related to commercial nuclear energy. Because, as the American public's confidence in nuclear power is greatly affected, commercial nuclear power plants that have to significantly increase the construction cost of safety facilities of nuclear power plants will be subject to expensive costs and the number of construction will decrease sharply. Finally, the whole American nuclear power industry will fall into a long-term depression.

"The influence of the world oil crisis in the United States needs to be further released, and the oil price must at least double." Gao Xian made a judgment with a faint sense of excitement in his heart.

At this time, Bao Yugang suddenly came to the door in person and wanted to explain a situation face to face with Gao Xian, "I have decided to start greatly reducing the number of ocean going giant oil tankers under the company, so I may not be able to make great efforts when cooperating with the work of the energy Security Committee."

Gao Xian's lips moved, but he didn't expect to say anything. What he thought was that Bao Yugang finally made a decision after such a difficult choice.

You should know that the value of an ocean going giant oil tanker during the first world oil crisis was equivalent to the Kangle building, the tallest building in Asia that Jardine Matheson invested in and now falls into Gao Xian's hands; At this stage, during the second world oil crisis, the value of ocean going giant oil tankers is advancing day by day. Ship owners are planning how to buy more hens that can lay golden eggs, but Bao Yugang did the opposite.

Seeing Gao Xian's silence, Bao Yugang thought he had other ideas, so he quickly explained further: "according to my observation, although on the surface, the market demand for ocean going giant oil tankers is increasing day by day, in fact, I'm afraid the market capacity is quite limited."

"There are three largest buyers of Middle East oil, the United States, Western Europe and one book. However, the United States is increasing the development of oil fields in Texas, Alaska and other places. At the same time, Latin American oil producing countries such as Mexico and Venezuela are far closer to the United States than the Middle East. Western European countries have North Sea oil fields at home, and they are not as heavily dependent on Middle East oil as before; one book Since the last world oil crisis, China has madly increased its oil reserves and actively developed alternative energy such as nuclear energy and solar energy. Therefore, the current oil import has not increased significantly. "

"At present, the number of ocean going giant oil tankers is increasing in a swarm. I believe there will be excess transportation capacity in not too long. When ocean going giant oil tankers have no work to do, the maintenance cost is quite heavy."

"I think it's better to reduce the number of ocean going giant oil tankers while ocean going giant oil tankers are very popular. Anyway, I also want to transform through jiulongcang."

Gao Xian was convinced and said, "Sir Bao can not only see what others can't see, but also make decisions that ordinary people can't choose. It's really great."

"If only Sir Gao understood my difficulties." seeing that Gao Xian accepted his explanation, Bao Yugang laughed loudly, "I will continue to support Sir Gao's work in the energy security committee."

After the topic turned over, Gao Xian said casually in his chat: "the governor's trip to the mainland seems to be much longer than originally planned. It is said that he will take the Guangzhou Hong Kong direct train for the return trip."

Bao Yugang joked: "Sir Gao, like me, belongs to the kind of people who do not lack patience."

Gao Xian smiled playfully, "indeed, the governor may not know some news earlier than us!"
