”Your Tongguang Building has to be twenty-eight floors, right?” Zhou Hao smiled lightly at his and said: ”There isn't such a tall building on the Xiang City. Even our Lakeview Manor's top floor is only twenty-six floors.”
Yan lightly glanced at him: ”What our Tongguang Building, don't tell me you don't have the rights?
Not to mention that Tongguang was built by you in the first place, even if you do not have any shares in Tongguang, wouldn't Aunt's seventy percent share of the shares be given to you in the future? ”
At the beginning, Yan Tong owned seventy percent of the shares, while Lu Shiping owned thirty percent.
Not long ago, Yan Tong transferred 10% of her shares to Yan Qing's name, so now, Yan Qing was also a shareholder in Tongguang.
On the other hand, Zhou Hao was not very interested in the shares of Tongguang. This was because Tongguang were originally something he used to satisfy the development of his mother and Lu Shiping's businesses.
If Yan Tong and Lu Shiping retired in the future, in Zhou Hao's plans, he would also split the shares of Tongguang with Yan Qing and Wang Xijun.
The investment from Tongguang construction this time was 700 million yuan. In the current 98th year, this amount could definitely allow the Tongguang construction to be built according to high level requirements.
That seven hundred million was not a problem for Tongguang Companies at all. Forget about the Tongguang Building being able to be completed through instalments, even if they had to take it out at once, Tongguang Companies could still do it.
In Xiang City, other than the production base for auto parts, Tongguang Corporation were the largest taxpayers. Once the Tongguang Building was built, it would at least maintain its reputation as the number one highest building in Xiang City until 2000.
Moreover, with this landmark, the reputation of Tongguang would become even more famous.
”For the bottom 80%, we plan to use it as a supermarket, because there is no supermarket on the Xiang City right now, and in big cities like Shanghai and Shenzhen, most of them have already been moved in by foreign companies.”
Yan Qing said, ”That's why we want to take advantage of the time before those foreign investors aim their spears at our Xiang City, to take advantage of this opportunity to take over this market.”
Zhou Hao listened and nodded his head repeatedly. Without question, Yan Qing and her decision was very clear. Currently, there was no real supermarket in Xiang City, at most, it was a small warehouse type of shopping mall.
Zhou Hao knew that in the future, when they set up their Xiang City in the large scale supermarkets such as the Da Run Fa and Yi Chu Hua, these small scale stores would simply have no way of resisting and would very quickly lose their market space, ending up as bankrupt.
And right now, Tongguang was about to develop into a large scale supermarket that was on the same level as Carrefour and Big Whirlwind.
As the living standards of the Xiang City citizens get better and better, their consumption needs will also increase, so the space for the development of large scale supermarkets is vast.
Zhou Hao also had a huge goal, which was to develop a chain of supermarkets that could compete with Carrefour. Even if they couldn't dominate the entire world, they had to at least protect their own markets, so that Carrefour wouldn't plunder all of China's markets.
While driving, Zhou Hao and Yan Qing arrived at the construction site of Tongguang Building.
The Tongguang company had chosen a plot of land that was around two thousand square meters near the Yining Middle School. Even though it was very far from the business center of the Xiang City, the surroundings were not considered bustling.
However, Zhou Hao knew that this place would soon become a focal point for the development of the Xiang City, and the center of the city would gradually move over here.
In Zhou Hao's previous world, this piece of land would become the largest and most luxurious hotel in the Xiang City in the future — — the Jun Lin Grand Hotel.
But now, the Jun Lin restaurant would not appear anymore, and it was replaced by the Tongguang Building.
The construction of the Tongguang Building had already started two months ago and was now on the sixth floor. He saw a large area of bamboo racks and canvas surrounding the Tongguang Building, from which came the unceasing shouts of the workers and the rumble of the machines.
It's still the Spring Festival, but many workers are willing to stay and make more money because construction companies offer them double wages.
Yan Qing looked at the tall building that rose from the ground through the window and said to Zhou Hao: ”Other than making a large scale supermarket, we also plan to set up a shopping mall in the Tongguang Building. According to the people in the company, it would be moving the Walking Street into the Tongguang Building.
Also, Aunty and Aunt Ping said that we would open the Restaurant's flagship store in the Tongguang Tower.
And the floors above, are our Tongguang company's office space. There is even a portion of it that is used as a staff member's dormitory. ”
”Why don't we go in and take a look?” Zhou Hao smiled lightly at Yan Xiao.
”Alright, the people from the engineering company should be inside. Let's go in and take a look.”
Then, the two got out of the car and walked towards the construction site. The words ”Three Rivers Building Company” were printed on the metal door. Clearly, it was the creator of the Tongguang Building.
Standing guard at the entrance was a tall, dark skinned man. This was obviously not the first time Yan Qing had come here. When the man saw Yan Qing, he smiled and greeted her, ”Miss Yan, are you here to inspect the progress?”
”That's right, Big Brother Lu.” Yan Qing smiled as she replied. She was very cordial and did not look down on the man just because he was an ordinary worker.
”This must be your boyfriend, right?” The man looked at Zhou Hao who was beside Yan Qing and laughed, revealing his white teeth.
Yan Qing's face reddened slightly as she said, ”Don't speak nonsense and stay on guard. Don't let any random person or child enter.”
