Chapter 449: Poison Policy
In the Governor's Office, after listening to Ksus's report, Brian did not make a decision immediately, but asked Ksus's opinion.
"Bryan, I am also aware of some plans in London. Due to the tough attitude there and the threat of the Red Soviet Union, we are afraid it will be difficult for us to keep this.
But this time it is a bit special, not only involving the nature of land development. If these affected villagers cannot be resettled well, it will be very unfavorable to us and even the local area in terms of international public opinion.
I personally prefer to allocate the land to Li Jianhui. Although Li Jianhui and others will also build residential buildings, this time they will develop mid-to-high-end residential buildings with commercial facilities. The density of residential buildings will not be too high, and the number of residential buildings will be reduced accordingly."
Brian was not surprised that Ksos was more inclined toward Li Jianhui. He knew very well that even with local restrictions, Ksos, Li Jianhui and even members of the Donghua Association were still relatively close.
Fortunately, the local side has little hope to defend this side, which makes Ksos not dare to keep up with the development plan of the Xinjian Group in some policies.
This year, he introduced several policies to increase the permanent population on a large scale and to restrict residential construction, in order to leave a mess in the future.
This time, Li Jianhui's plan was obviously somewhat inconsistent with Brian's plan, and it could even be said to be a bit contrary to the situation. Instead, Li Zhaoji's plan was quite in line with his plan.
After thinking for a while, Brian spoke out: "Kesos, you also know the current economic situation. If Li Jianhui takes over the land of the third village of Lantian, he is afraid that it will not be developed in a short time.
It can be seen from the land of the other party's Tin Shui Wai, North District, Da Pu and Tseung Kwan O that the vegetables on the lands of the Donghuahui are growing quite well.
On the contrary, because it is the establishment of a business complex, the other party will develop the land immediately as long as it is obtained, which has a great promoting effect on economic development. I think it is better to hand over the land to Sun Hung Kai."
Ksos did not have too many disputes with Brian on this, and he didn't want to follow Xia Dingji's footsteps.
As Brian said, the entry of several major real estate under Sun Hung Hokkien also has a driving effect on the economy.
As for the work issues of villagers in Lantian Village, this depends on the Sun Hung Association, and the government is not a nanny, so it is impossible to arrange work for him.
Seeing that Kshaus agreed, Brian was very happy. Without any need, Brian did not want to have too much dispute with Kshaus.
It’s a pity that he wasn’t happy for long, and Ksos’s next words instantly gave him a headache.
"Brian, due to the economic impact this year, land transfer is not as good as expected, coupled with our large-scale infrastructure construction such as subways, roads, and the construction and maintenance of many universities, coupled with the increase in labor costs this year, there has been a big financial situation.
The problem.
In order to increase our fiscal revenue, we need to increase some favorable policies and also increase the supply of land auctions.”
In the 1970s, the government only needed to maintain the development of Xiangjiang University and Xiangjiang Chinese University, and now it has added Xiangjiang Science and Technology, Xiangjiang Technology, Xiangjiang City, and Xiangjiang Normal University, which is under construction, and the funds in this regard have increased several times.
Even if these real estate companies purchase property development rights at the station at high prices, the government still needs to invest a lot of money.
Fortunately, major real estate companies in the past two years rushed to buy land, but this year, due to economic and political factors, there are not many real estate companies participating in land auctions, and the transaction price is far below expectations.
On the one hand, there are increasing expenses and decreasing fiscal revenue. Kxosco doesn't have much confidence in the Executive Directorate's funds until the end of the year.
There are only two ways now, one is to increase the sales of land to increase revenue, and the other is to increase the budget funds for this year by the Administration Department.
But Ksos knew very well that it was very difficult to increase funds from the Finance Department, so he just asked Brian to increase the amount of land transfer.
"Kesos, I know that you are dissatisfied with the allocation of taxes to the Finance Department of Hong Kong, but you can't just focus on the one-acre and three-point land of your Executive Office.
Your administrative department has a sufficient annual budget for funds. Even if the land transfer is reduced this year, it will not affect the administrative department's development plan this year.
Moreover, the Finance Department is responsible for Hong Kong taxation, and this aspect is no longer subject to the administrative department's restraint. This is also a local special requirement, so you should not make any ideas about this aspect.
This is not possible in terms of land transfer and increase, and now we mainly implement special land supply and special requirements will be made in terms of development nature to realize our plan.
Unless there is a new local order, I will not change this current development policy, and I will never give a large amount of residential land to the real estate companies under Donghuahui and Xianghuahui.
Moreover, your administrative department should further relax the conditions for settlement, and at the same time reduce the conditions for establishing colleges and universities, so that Xiangjiang universities can reach 30 as soon as possible, with an annual population of more than 200,000."
Even though Xoss knew that Brian's policy was quite poisonous, he had to implement it. After all, he was a British man, so he naturally had to be in the current position of the British.
After returning to the Administration Department, Ksos specially convened a senior meeting of the Administration Department to convey some of Brian's policies and also learned about the recent application situation of colleges and universities.
Currently, there are 20 universities that have been put into use, rebuilding and approved, including six public universities, 14 private universities, 8 Donghuahui, 3 Nanjianghui, Xianghua, Xinya, and Xinhong3
One conference will be held.
Several major consortiums have almost exhausted their potential in this regard. If they want to continue to increase universities, the first is the government's investment, and the other is to find foreign capital.
However, Ksos is still preparing to squeeze the potential of several major consortiums. He said to the head of the Education Department: "You go and contact Polykin, Jiayi Group, EDA Records, Far East Media and other companies to find out whether the other party is willing to start a company.
Xiangjiang Conservatory of Music.
At the same time, we also contact Jiayi Culture, Far East Media, Xinhong Media, etc. to see if these companies are willing to establish Xiangjiang Academy of Fine Arts.
In addition, contact Hongyu Clothing and Xinyang Clothing two major groups to see if they are willing to establish Xiangjiang Clothing Design Academy.
You must also take the initiative to attack. For some academies with certain foundations and strength, you can also upgrade to universities, and strive to complete the plans for thirty universities within this year."
