My 1999

Jiang Xiaoyang knew that Xu Liang was not optimistic about the city banks in China except those in first-tier cities.

In fact, the qualifications of these city banks were indeed very poor.

The most important thing was that they did not distinguish between public and private, and they were generally small local coffers, so some internal reforms were difficult to promote.

So she did not object.

"Yuquan Road is being renovated. You can ask someone to go over and rent a site. Then move the company's incubation room and venture capital department there."

Jiang Xiaoyang nodded.

After merging with Delong, the company added securities, trust, financial leasing and insurance businesses.

But the personnel of these businesses are still in Delong Building in Magic City, and have not moved to Beijing.

It's not that they don't want to, but there is not enough space.

Especially the Hanhua Innovation Incubation Room, which occupies half of the area of ​​Hanhua Center.

When they all leave, Hanhua can merge with Delong's financial department.

When they arrived at the company, the two of them were busy.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Song from Global Travel is here."

"Let him in."

Soon, a short and thin young man in a brown suit, with a crew cut, walked in quickly.

He has a darker complexion, and exudes a sense of competence.

"Mr. Xu."

"Old Song, come and sit down."

Xu Liang waved his hand.

Song Feng nodded and put down the things in his hand.

"Mr. Xu, this is the specialty 'Longsheng Cake' I brought you from Qingzhou."

"Old Song, you are thoughtful."

It doesn't cost much, and it is meaningful to Xu Liang, a Qingzhou native. It is indeed a suitable gift.

"It's just a piece of cake." Song Feng said hurriedly.

"Have you visited all the tourism companies under Delong?"

"Since I received your notice, I took the company's inspection team and set off as soon as possible. In more than a month, I visited all the tourism assets under Delong, and I didn't miss any of them."

"Let me see your inspection record."

After agreeing, Song Feng took out a notebook from his briefcase and handed it over.

Xu Liang took it and opened it.

The first page was full of pen words.

The handwriting was neat and very beautiful.

Compared with the notes of Da Qiangzi that he had seen, this one was undoubtedly more pleasing to the eye.

However, Xu Liang wanted content rather than good looks.

The first Delong tourism asset that Song Feng inspected was the Beijing Huaxia National Travel Agency Co., Ltd.

This was the first company established by Delong after it entered the tourism industry.

Then, through this company, two tourism projects, the Turpan Grape Valley and the Karez Amusement Park, were developed and built.

Later, it took control of the Western Region International Travel Agency.

Founded in 1987, Western Region International Travel has a net asset of 2,526 yuan. It has overseas offices in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan, and has been providing charter services for a long time.

It is one of the most powerful travel companies in the Western Region.

After taking over Western Region International Travel, Delong opened up the upstream and downstream channels from travel agencies to tourist attractions.

Tang Wanxin, who is ambitious, will certainly not limit Delong's tourism tentacles to the Western Region.

In 1998, he did something that shocked the country and attracted the attention of military fans across the country.

A huge sum of 5.3 million US dollars was spent to purchase the flagship of the former Soviet Pacific Fleet, the Minsk aircraft carrier, and then after investing nearly 400 million to renovate it, a large military theme park, the Minsk Aircraft Carrier World, was built.

With the passion of the rabbits for aircraft carriers.

In the first year of operation, the park created 67 million in revenue and 14.16 million in net profit.

More than an ordinary 5A-level large tourist attraction.

However, when it comes to the Minsk aircraft carrier, its story is still quite tortuous.

It is the second ship of the former Soviet Union's 1143-type aircraft carrier.

The standard displacement is 36,000 tons, and the full load is more than 40,000 tons.

Although it is called an aircraft carrier, it is actually an aircraft carrier cruiser.

In other words, in addition to aircraft, its arsenal is more important than missiles.

After the Minsk was put into service, it was deployed in the Pacific Fleet. As a result, just after ten years of service, the big brother died.

All 1143-type aircraft carriers were received by Russia.

However, due to the turbulent social situation and deteriorating economic conditions in Russia, the navy generally lacks military funds and cannot afford the high operating and maintenance costs.

In addition, the Nikolayev Shipyard that can maintain the Minsk aircraft carrier is located in the territory of the already independent Russia.

There is no choice but to retire it.

The world's largest country, South Korea, which is ambitious, rushed up as soon as it saw a bargain.

Moreover, this is an aircraft carrier.

It is so cool to drive.

It can also show off in front of Japanese magazines.

So,

At the end of 1995, the Minsk and the same-class "Novorossiysk" were bought by the South Korean Daewoo Group in the name of scrap metal for US$13 million.

The premise of the Daewoo Group's purchase was that they must be dismantled into steel plates of about 2 square meters and cannot be used for military purposes.

The South Koreans agreed very happily, but turned their faces and stuffed the contract into the toilet.

When the Minsk arrived in South Korea.

Not only the South Korean defense department but also the old American intelligence officials boarded the ship and conducted a detailed analysis of the hull and internal structure.

South Korea even planned to revive the Minsk and realize its "aircraft carrier dream" ahead of time.

But things did not go as planned, and the Asian financial crisis broke out in 1997.

Anyone who knows South Korea knows this.

The biggest chaebol that collapsed in 1997 was the Daewoo Group.

In order to repay its debts, the Daewoo Group sold the Minsk to Delong at a low price of $5.3 million.

In August 1999, the Minsk was towed to the Wenchong Shipyard in Yangcheng for a closed large-scale repair and renovation.

It is said that out of curiosity, I also went in to measure it.

As for whether it is true or not, we don’t know.

On May 9, 2000, the Minsk was converted into a military theme park and sailed to Dapeng Bay in Pengcheng, becoming the Shenzhen Minsk Aircraft Carrier World.

It is the only large-scale military theme park in the world converted from a 40,000-ton aircraft carrier.

The Minsk aircraft carrier really made Delong look good.

Thanks to the huge profits made from the aircraft carrier project and the good impression left on it, Delong has increased its determination to develop the tourism industry.

In November 2000, Turpan Karez Folk Custom Park and Turpan Grape Valley Amusement Park, which were owned by Delong, jointly invested 50 million yuan with Turpan Huaxia International Travel Agency, Turpan Xingan Tourism Development Company and Turpan Tourism Bus Company.

Turpan Tourism Development Company with total assets of 80 million yuan was established.

Delong is the undisputed majority shareholder.

Delong further integrated Turpan's tourism resources.

In August 2001, Turpan Tourism Development Company was the main initiator, and it joined hands with Western Region Burqin Kanas Tourism Company, Western Region Tourism Bus Company and Western Region Foreign Friendship Exchange Service Center.

They jointly initiated the establishment of Great Western Tourism Company with a capital injection of 50 million yuan, mainly engaged in the development of Western Region attractions and international and domestic tourism services.

As mentioned before, Delong is accustomed to achieving industrial integration through rapid mergers and acquisitions, and then operating listings, and obtaining huge returns by manipulating the stock market.

Hunan Torch, Alloy Shares and Western Region Tunhe are all like this.

Delong is the same in the tourism industry.

The listed tourism company they chose this time was ‘CYTS Holdings’.

In February 2001, Delong’s Minsk aircraft carrier acquired 15.0641 million shares of ‘Suzhou Taihu National Tourism Resort Development Company’, the former second largest shareholder of CYTS Holdings.

With a 5.64% stake, it became the fourth largest shareholder of CYTS.

The fourth largest shareholder obviously could not satisfy Delong’s appetite.

In January 2004, it acquired the remaining 19.4754 million shares of CYTS Holdings from Suzhou Taihu Group, and replaced Taihu Group as the second largest shareholder of CYTS Holdings with a 12.6% stake.

The major shareholder of CYTS Holdings is CYTS Group, which holds 20% of the shares of CYTS Holdings.

Although it is only one-fifth, they hold state-owned shares.

Delong has been seeking to acquire this 20% stake, but CYTS has never sold it.

Therefore, Delong’s plan to integrate its tourism assets through CYTS Holdings and list them has not been realized.

Seeing this, Xu Liang frowned slightly.

In fact, some of Delong's business development plans are not completely useless.

After he acquired Delong, he also selectively adopted some of them.

This includes Delong's tourism industry integration plan.

Unfortunately, when Hongyan sought to acquire 20% of Qinglv Holdings' corporate shares, even if he was willing to increase the price, the other party still refused.

Since he couldn't get the controlling rights, he had to give up.

In 2002, Turpan Tourism Development Company, which was controlled by Delong, acquired Grape Valley Central Park, which was adjacent to Grape Valley Park.

So far, Delong has almost controlled 80% of Turpan's tourism resources and completed the regional monopoly.

After holding the tourism industry in his hometown, Delong set his sights on South China, which has the most developed economy.

In September 2003, it acquired Guangzhi Travel International Travel Agency.

Guangzhi Travel was established in 1980. It is one of the largest comprehensive large-scale tourism enterprises in Guangzhou and is known as the four major stars of Guangdong Province's tourism.

More than 30 business outlets have been established at home and abroad.

Through brand equity investment, franchising and other means, Guangzhi Travel has established member companies such as Xiangjiang Guangzhi Travel, Huizhou Guangzhi Travel, Shunde Guangzhi Travel and Emei Guangzhi Travel.

Before being acquired by Delong, the turnover had exceeded 500 million yuan and the brand valuation exceeded 50 million yuan.

After acquiring Guangzhi Travel, Delong also acquired some local travel agencies in South China.

At present, it has 75 business outlets in the two major bases of Northwest China and South China, operating five major scenic spots including Turpan Grape Valley, Turpan Karez, Minsk Aircraft Carrier, Western Region Burqin Kanas, and Western Region Kanas Lake.

It has hundreds of tourist buses, as well as the foreign-related three-star hotel "Urumqi City Hotel" and the foreign-related four-star hotel "Urumqi Tunhe Ramada Hotel".

The total assets exceed 450 million yuan, the total income in 2004 is 950 million yuan, and the net profit is 120 million yuan.

It is second only to several national travel companies in China.

Put down the notebook.

"Is the first phase of the Longhu Mountain scenic area going to be completed soon?"

"It will be completed in May this year." Song Feng said quickly.

Before Delong went bankrupt, in addition to the five major scenic areas that had been opened to the public, there were three scenic area development plans under construction and negotiation.

The Longhu Mountain scenic area has been negotiated and construction has started.

The total investment of 150 million yuan to develop the Longhu Mountain scenic area is divided into two phases.
