Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base
Chapter 231 Influence
Immigration work has always been one of the key focuses of the Xincheng government, but due to various reasons, communication with the mainland has not made substantial progress.
However, surprisingly, this escort mission actually became a turning point, causing the mainland side to finally give in and agree to start negotiations.
For Wang Jixin, this was undoubtedly a major breakthrough.
He understood that as long as the other party was willing to sit down and talk, it meant there was a chance to solve the problem, which was always better than the situation where there was no communication at all before.
To achieve sustainable development of cities, sufficient population is the key.
Currently, the new city has once again fallen into a development bottleneck and needs more human support.
According to statistics, the number of workers in the new city accounts for more than 60% of the country's total, but fortunately, most of the residents of this emerging city are young and middle-aged workers, otherwise it would be difficult to sustain the existing industrial scale.
With the rise of new cities, the lives of Chinese people in Southeast Asia have improved significantly.
The existence of the new city has forced neighboring countries to curb their discriminatory attitudes towards the Chinese, or at least they dare not openly introduce targeted laws and regulations.
For example, Indonesia tried to take action, but was met with a stern warning from New Town.
The New Town government made it clear that if there were any unwelcome people, they could send them to the New Town, but violence would never be tolerated.
Xincheng’s warning has caused quite a stir in Southeast Asian countries.
The Chinese also feel that they have a backstage in Southeast Asia that can speak for them.
The hearts of these Chinese people are also slightly inclined towards the new city.
Chinese people in Southeast Asia read the Nan Ya Daily every day. They used to look up dictionaries and read newspapers, but now they are familiar with the simplified Chinese in the new city.
They have even started to use simplified Chinese in their daily lives. After all, simplified Chinese has greatly improved education and literacy rates. These are all changes brought about by the new city.
Wang Ze is now more focused on Metro’s first film, When Happiness Knocks on the Door.
The film was released in Southeast Asian countries and Hong Kong, bringing in considerable indirect economic benefits.
Now there are dozens of passenger ships traveling to and from the new city every day.
Many of them came to the new city to play after watching a movie, or came to investigate and see if there were any opportunities.
The current pedestrian street in the new city area has changed dramatically compared to its original appearance.
When I first arrived, there were only four or five shops, but now brands from all over the world have moved into the pedestrian street.
There are as many as seven watch shops here, from countries like Switzerland and Japan, and they are competing fiercely every day.
The reason these merchants choose to open stores in New Town and sell goods at the lowest prices in the world is because they are eager to obtain New Town currency.
However, the new city currency could not be exchanged for foreign currencies, so the only way to open a store was to take out a loan.
When these merchants enter the new city, most of them choose to take out loans to open stores, but the commercial loan interest rates they face are not as low as those faced by the Chinese.
Therefore, once the store opened, they immediately launched various promotional activities in an attempt to quickly recover funds and repay the loan.
In addition, many businessmen use the registered permanent residents of Xincheng to apply for loans and open stores by investing in them.
This behavior of taking advantage of loopholes soon attracted the attention of Xincheng, but Wang Ze did not take strict measures to prohibit it. Instead, he stipulated that the lender's shareholding ratio must not be less than 30%, and at the same time required the management department to pay close attention to the operating conditions of these stores and companies.
Today's new city not only attracts merchants from all over the world to open shops, but also attracts talents from all walks of life to gather here.
In this city, even hotels and other facilities are opened by many businessmen from other places.
As the new town attracted a large number of tourists and foreign businessmen, the hotel industry became a hot business.
Especially in the ports and industrial areas of new cities, government management will approve a piece of land, and businessmen will be responsible for construction themselves.
However, due to the lack of local labor resources and the inability of these businessmen to pay high local currency wages, they can only recruit people from outside to do the work.
As time goes by, the appearance of the new city changes with each passing day. If you don’t come back for a few months, you might get lost.
Although the local wage level is high, the consumption level is also relatively high.
The Chinese and Western restaurants on the pedestrian street, which used to be a welfare benefit, have begun to raise their prices, no longer just based on cost plus a small profit. In the past, you only needed to spend a few yuan to enjoy a hearty meal, but now you need at least ten yuan to order a few dishes.
In addition, the vegetable area in the supermarket has become very lively and is no longer deserted as before.
Due to the current price increases, many people choose to buy ingredients and cook them at home to save money.
There are even crazier actions: some people even drive to Prachuap Khiri Khan, then go to Thailand to have fun, eat and enjoy themselves before returning to the new city.
Due to such a large number of people, Thailand's Kui Buri District has risen rapidly, and a large number of entertainment facilities and restaurants have been set up here.
In just a few months, Kui Buri has become the most bustling nightlife destination in southern Thailand.
All this is thanks to the huge impetus brought by the people of the new city coming to consume.
Thailand has specially formulated a ten-day visa-free policy for Chinese people in new cities, with the aim of seeing the strong consumption potential of new cities.
However, only Thailand has taken this measure so far, while Myanmar and Malaya remain relatively conservative and have not implemented a visa-free policy.
The New Town government is well aware of this, but given the New Town's strict restrictions on certain industries, it has acquiesced in residents' travel to Thailand for tourism and consumption.
In Wang Jixin's eyes, having a place for the people of Xincheng to vent is also a good choice, at least better than doing whatever they want in Xincheng.
As for whether this will cause various crime problems in other countries...
Haha, Wang Jixin thought, as long as these people don’t commit crimes against Chinese people, he won’t care about them!
However, Wang Jixin is still quite satisfied with the performance of "The Pursuit of Happyness" after its release in various countries.
The film has already earned over S$50 million at the box office, which is no small achievement!
Moreover, this movie also allows more foreigners to understand the culture of Xincheng, which is what Wang Jixin has always hoped to see.
The fact that Xincheng’s first film can achieve this result is a good start.
Then he called Wang Chun to arrange the subsequent work.
After some communication with Wang Chun, Wang Chun left the mountain base and went to find Director Mo for an in-depth conversation, to jointly discuss how to incorporate the elements of the new city into the film and television series.
At the same time, she also plans to invite more people from the Hong Kong entertainment industry to come to New Town to develop and inject new vitality into New Town's film and television industry.
In this way, Xincheng’s strategy of going overseas with its culture was gradually unfolding even before the TV station was built.
