In two days, Wu Xiaowen secured six of the top 20 real estate developers in Chengdu. Obtaining the pricing power of six residential communities under construction added a big bargaining chip to Xiao Qi's plan.
Six large and small communities are located in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Chengdu. They are almost all located within the Second Ring Road. Although they are not as large as Fairy Real Estate, they can cooperate with Xiao Qi's plan and cover the entire core area of Chengdu.
The impact on housing prices will be extremely far-reaching.
Taizu once said that strategically we must despise the enemy and regard all reactionaries as paper tigers, but tactically we must pay attention to every enemy. Zhuge was always cautious in his life, and this is what he said.
Xiao Qi didn't care at all about the 10 billion or so that Wenzhou real estate speculators had invested in one after another.
But in order to prevent their ambitions from expanding again, Xiao Qi must make them stumble hard in Chengdu, so that they will be frightened when they think of the lessons they learned in Chengdu, so that they will not be so unscrupulous and crazy to raise housing prices.
.
So at noon the next day, he invited Jing Xuan to come to the Fairy Company cafeteria for a working meal.
After becoming the executive deputy mayor of the provincial capital city, Jing Xuan was much busier than before, but since it was Xiao Qi's invitation, of course he had to spare time even if he didn't have time.
In Xiao Qi's private room, the two of them ordered a simple meal of four dishes and one soup, drank a bottle of champagne, and ate nondescriptly.
"Qi Shao, Fairy Real Estate is really in the limelight recently. With such low housing prices and high-quality housing, it is well-known throughout the country." Jing Xuan said with a smile while eating side dishes. "Some of my classmates and comrades-in-arms are all
They called one after another to inquire, and if it is suitable, they are going to buy a set for future vacation and leisure use.”
"When it comes to a real vacation, Rongcheng is not a good choice. It's too humid here." Xiao Qi said eloquently: "In summer, go to the three northeastern provinces to escape the heat, in winter, go to Qiongdao to bask in the sun, and in spring and autumn, you can enjoy a leisurely trip to Jiangnan.
, this is a chic retirement life.”
"Yes, what I am most unaccustomed to is the humid climate in Sichuan." As a Central Plains native, Jing Xuan nodded and said, "Other seasons are better, but I feel uncomfortable in winter."
"Haha, then the people here will feel unbearably dry if they go to the north." Xiao Qi smiled slightly, "Mayor Jing came to Chengdu to work hard for the revolutionary work. I think the people of Chengdu will also remember it.
Live yours."
Jing Xuan smiled. "Young Master Qi, are you kidding me?"
Xiao Qi shook his head: "Of course not. At least in terms of suppressing housing prices, Mayor Jing can be proud of you."
Hearing what Xiao Qi said, Jing Xuan felt a little embarrassed, "Haha, Mr. Qi, you've overestimated me... Outsiders don't know, but you still don't know? This is all because I took your credit."
Since the beginning of the 21st century, after the country began to liberalize housing prices, it has continued to suppress housing prices. This seemingly contradictory behavior also reflects some disputes between the central and local governments.
Ever since the iron-faced Prime Minister transferred all finances to the central government, local governments have been facing very difficult financial times. From that time on, land finance has become a general direction for them to obtain development funds, so the increasing
It cannot be said that housing prices are not driven by local factors.
For the central government looking at the overall situation, this rapid rise in housing prices does not meet the development needs of a country. However, they cannot give local governments a lot of money, so they can only limit housing prices as much as possible.
Let local governments have money to live without letting high housing prices destroy the economy.
Of course, just like obtaining land finance, it is not a very glorious thing; being able to make money while controlling housing prices within a reasonable range has become the goal of local officials.
Xiao Qi remembers very clearly that in the past few years, any local official who has done a good job in controlling housing prices will have greater room for improvement in the future than ordinary officials.
Although the unit price of the land sold to Xiao Qi in Chengdu was relatively cheap, the total value of the 76,000 acres of land exceeded 37 billion.
With so much money, Chengdu will be able to develop its own economy and build a city with greater ease.
But the most important thing is not this. Xiao Qi, who bought such a large amount of land, not only did not take the opportunity to raise housing prices, but instead used the large amount of land in his hands to suppress the housing prices in Chengdu by more than 15%.
Call it a jaw-dropping miracle.
Logically speaking, many officials in Chengdu should be dissatisfied with Xiao Qi.
Actually it is not.
The huge sum of 37 billion that came to Chengdu was given by Xiao Qi. It was still only 2007, and other real estate companies simply could not buy so much land and give such a high total price.
Secondly, too many of their relatives and children work in the public relations department of Fairy Company. Their children receive high salaries from Fairy Company and live a life that everyone envies. How can parents and elders have the nerve to put down their chopsticks and scold their mothers?
The third reason is that Fairy Company, Fairy Real Estate, Xiaoyao Express, Xiaoniao.com and Weibo companies, these Fairy-type companies, now pay more than 400 million in taxes every month, and they will also pay more and more in the future.
The more they have, and with such a large amount of income, their need for land finance is not so urgent.
Because of so many reasons, everyone pretended not to notice Fairy Real Estate’s obvious suppression of housing prices, and many officials even used this to praise themselves for their nobleness when they went out for meetings, and often let others
The officials were impressed.
Even the deputy prime minister of the central government in charge of the land and transportation department publicly praised Chengdu’s real estate market model in July, calling it “a model of very healthy development”!
With such a tone set, everyone felt more relaxed. Officials who occasionally criticized Fairy Real Estate as "nonsense" immediately changed their tune and praised Xiao Qi as a good businessman who benefited the country and the people.
Jing Xuan is an example of bragging about himself when he goes out for meetings.
As mentioned before, this person is very capable and not greedy for money. He is just a bit lustful and loves power, so it is natural for him to take the credit for himself.
Moreover, he also understood that Xiao Qi would definitely not argue with him about this trivial matter, so he boldly boasted about it to prepare for his future advancement in public opinion.
Jing Xuan and Xiao Qi are friends, and they are partners in some aspects. If Xiao Qi keeps increasing his wealth and power, and Jing Xuan cannot keep up, then Xiao Qi will not take more care of him in the future.
As a motivated official, Mayor Jing certainly does not want to see this happen.
