Guangzhou.

Last year, failing to secure Sihai International's investment resulted in a shortfall of several billion Hong Kong dollars in attracting investment. Many people were kicking themselves, regretting that Pengcheng had benefited from the real estate reform pilot program.

Recently, they suddenly discovered that Su Sihai, a major businessman from Casino, had a change of heart. He even brought the Hong Kong-listed Donghuang Group along, proactively seeking them out. Naturally, the local government's attitude was very enthusiastic, and a temporary working group was specially established to handle contact with them.

Although the land being considered was located in the suburbs and couldn't help with the old city renovation, this also reduced many unnecessary troubles. Planning was relatively easier, and land prices were also more favorable.

Those who participated in the negotiations last year were all transferred back to the temporary working group. The two sides were already familiar with each other, and contact was relatively smooth.

After only a week of discussions, they had already begun preparing a proposal. Following the model of Pengcheng's Sihai International Cultural Tourism City, they submitted a proposal in the name of a cultural tourism industry town, bypassing the land auction process.

In reality, even if they participated in the land auction, the current mainland real estate developers couldn't afford to play with a development project of this scale.

Look at Vanke, with a total market value of only about three billion RMB, it is already considered an industry giant.

Take OCT Pengcheng as another example. Also as a cultural tourism project, private enterprises simply didn't have the strength to participate. In the end, the official government had to invest and create folk villages, world parks, theme parks, and so on.

Today's first-tier cities in the mainland are not short of land, but they are very short of investors. Based on the principle of handling special matters in a special way, it is expected that as long as they are willing to spend money, obtaining land shouldn't be a big problem. However, the price may be slightly more expensive than last year's negotiated price, but not by much, as house prices are still very cheap.

In this era, some houses in Pudong are sold for only three to four thousand yuan per square meter, and there is not much of a public area.

In Guangzhou city, you can also buy old houses for two to three thousand yuan per square meter, and new houses for three to four thousand yuan per square meter can also be found.

After Su Yehau simply inquired about the news, he wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to invest money. With the scale of Sihai International and Donghuang Group, entering the real estate industry in the mainland now is like a college student beating up elementary school students.

Having the experience of Pengcheng Cultural Tourism City, his old man was already a mature old man. So, Su Yehau didn't meddle in it. At the beginning of the summer vacation, he took a plane to Bangkok, Thailand...

——————————

The plane landed.

As soon as he left the arrival exit, he saw a slightly dark-skinned girl holding a sign with the names of Su Yehau and Jiang Yu written on it.

Beside this girl, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a suit, waving his hand enthusiastically with a big belly.

Thailand is hot and sunny all year round, and living here for a long time will inevitably lead to sunburn.

These two high-end customized tour guides are both Chinese, named Li Meisha and Duan Wenyong respectively. They introduced themselves in fluent Cantonese, saying that they have a cooperation with Honghao International Travel Company, and received a call from Master Jiang in advance. Everything has been arranged.

The University of Hong Kong just started its vacation, and Jiang Yu also went out to relax.

She happens to have a travel company that has developed business in Southeast Asia. Su Yehau and the girls don't understand Thai, so they specially hired a tour guide.

They entered the Jeep and drove towards Bangkok city, opening the window to let the wind blow.

It was just getting dark, and the evening breeze was very comfortable.

Su Yehau, Nangong Tian, and Jiang Yu were in the same car. The female tour guide Li Meisha, who was driving, introduced: "Other tour groups have fixed itineraries, but you guys can be more casual, okay? Did you check out any places you particularly want to visit before you came? We'll go to the hotel first tonight, or go to the night market to shop and eat? I booked the Four Seasons Hotel for you, its service is the best."

The little girl answered excitedly: "I've checked it out, I want to ride an elephant! Also the Grand Palace, go snorkeling in the sea to see the fish... things like that."

Tour guide Li Meisha said enthusiastically:

"No problem, whether it's cars, boats, or seaplanes, we know people. Anyway, there's no rush, it's not too late to consider slowly. Let's stay in Bangkok for a day or two first. You can ride elephants anywhere, as for snorkeling in the sea, I prefer Koh Samui."

Sitting in the car with the wind blowing, Su Yehau felt a little sleepy.

He said, "Well, there's no need to arrange a special itinerary. We'll tell you where we want to go in advance. Let's stay in Bangkok for the next two days. It's best to find a Mercedes-Benz van, with a spacious interior and comfortable seats. I'll pay for the extra cost."

The seats on this Jeep are hard, not only bumpy, but also the sound insulation is poor. It's okay for short trips, but uncomfortable for going further.

When traveling, it doesn't matter to spend more money, the most important thing is comfort.

Li Meisha certainly knew who the real boss was, and immediately agreed, continuing to ask where to go first.

Not in a hurry to check into the hotel, and a little hungry, so Su Yehau only said to go to the most fun night market nearby.

After a while.

When the car stopped near the Khao San Road night market, the tuk-tuks in front had already blocked the road, so they had to get out of the car and walk in advance.

Everywhere you looked were neon signs, and it was crowded with people, with a cacophony of noise.

The bodyguards who came with them were all on high alert, and as prepared in advance, they dispersed and surrounded them in the middle, not to the point of driving people away like celebrities, but just to guard against it.

Jiang Yu and the little girl were both in Thailand for the first time.

On the way from the airport, Jiang Yu only felt a bit of exoticism. The city landscape was so-so, until this moment she smiled and said: "It's really lively, I feel like it's more interesting than the Hong Kong night market."

"Yeah, I've been to several night stalls in Hong Kong too many times, and I'm already bored. Although the economy in Thailand is not good, there are a lot of tourists. Why didn't I think of coming here to play before?"

It was the little girl who spoke, and happiness was written on her face.

Compared with Hong Kong, Thailand's economy is indeed a bit worse. In addition, it has just been hit head-on by the financial crisis, allowing Europe and the United States to cut off a batch of fresh leeks. Various industries have been greatly affected, and have been in a slump since last year.

However, although many industries are sluggish, the tourism industry has become more prosperous with the devaluation of the Thai baht. It is especially cost-effective to exchange Hong Kong dollars for Thai baht. It also happens to be the summer vacation, attracting many backpackers to come and play.

The male tour guide Duan Wenyong, then approached and reminded: "There have been a lot of thieves in the Khao San Road night market recently, everyone remember to be careful. Especially Young Master Su, looking at your watch, you can exchange it for a house in Bangkok, some people can touch it away by bumping into you."

After hearing this, Su Yehau looked down at his wrist.

The Patek Philippe ref.1527 on his wrist, born in 1943, is more than enough to buy a big villa in Bangkok.

Wearing short sleeves, there is no way to hide it. Su Yehau smiled and said, "I was careless, wealth should not be exposed, I should change a watch when traveling."

The female tour guide Li Meisha, secretly flattered and said:

"You have bodyguards, so you don't need to worry too much, we will also help you keep an eye on it. With two such beautiful girls by your side, everyone knows you have money, it's the same whether you change the watch or not, you look very conspicuous..."
