Since 1992, the central government has established a development strategy to build the Shanghai Stock Exchange into "one leader and three centers".

A leading leader means taking Pudong development as the leader to drive the development of cities along the Yangtze River. Three centers are the international financial center, international trade center, and international shipping center.

In order to accelerate the construction of the Shanghai Stock Exchange International Shipping Center, the State Administration also conducted multiple inspections and investigations, but never found a suitable location.

Although the Shanghai Stock Exchange has been an important port for foreign trade and shipping since ancient times, with the development of science and technology and the improvement of manufacturing technology, the earlier the modern ships, the larger the 100,000 tons, can only be considered medium.

However, the local hydrological conditions in the Shanghai Stock Exchange are not enough to moor such huge ships, which has set a huge obstacle to its construction of an international shipping center.

When Xia Tian was chatting with Director Ling, after hearing about this, he laughed casually, "Since there is no suitable location in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, why not consider the surrounding provinces and cities?"

Director Ling's eyes lit up immediately after receiving his reminder.

Before, they only considered building a port in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, but because the geographical conditions in the Shanghai Stock Exchange were not in line with each other, they were considering whether to dig Shenzhen and Hong Kong. But if they did that, the cost was too high, the technology was too difficult, the construction period was too long, and it was easy to cause irreparable damage to the marine environment. Therefore, it was not implemented for a long time.

However, after hearing Xia Tian’s reminder, they immediately realized that since there is no suitable location in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, they can indeed consider it in the surrounding provinces and cities.

With one sentence, the director of Ling immediately took action.

Finally, after experts on-site exploration and investigation, we believed that establishing a deep-water port on Yangshan Island is a very good choice!

Therefore, the construction plan for Yangshan Deepwater Port was officially established.

In summer, Tianxia Real Estate was also able to participate in the construction of Yangshan Deepwater Port and provide it with support for funds, materials, equipment, personnel, etc.

In addition, Yangshan Port should align with world-class ports and introduce modern management and modern equipment. Therefore, Tianxia Technology will also provide technical support for Yangshan Port.

He knew that Yangshan Deepwater Port will not only be one of the largest ports in China in the future, but will also be among the top even in the world. Taiwan's Keelung Port, Kaohsiung Port, Xingkapo Port, Xingkapo Port, South Korea's Busan Port, etc. are the rankings on the international port rankings due to the competition from Yangshan Port.

If you go to Real Estate today, Tianxia Technology can participate in the construction of Yangshan Port, which will be of great benefit to the company's future development.

Lee Ka-shing's Hutchison Whampoa has 14 berths of the twenty-four berths in Hong Kong, which is almost monopolized, and it also makes him the leader of the port transportation industry.

It is precisely because of the cash flow provided by the port that supports his investment in the real estate market. Otherwise, he would probably go bankrupt during the stock market crash in the 1980s.

If Xia Real Estate provides funds for Yangshan Port and becomes a shareholder, it will naturally make profits in the future. Not to mention that Tianxia Real Estate is also directly involved in the construction, and the entire project investment is as high as more than 50 billion yuan. Based on 10% profit, it will also have a profit of 5 billion yuan.

Tianxia Technology provides technical support to the port, which is also an opportunity and challenge for the company.

Xia Tian knew that there was an unmanned port in his previous life. As the name suggests, there was no one on the port. The docking, departure, unloading and shipment of ships were all completed by the automation equipment.

Fast, efficient and intelligent, represent the future development trend of the port industry.

To achieve this goal, on the one hand, it requires hardware support, such as high computing rate chips, multi-device connection technology, automated robots, navigation equipment, driverless cars, etc.; on the other hand, it requires software support, such as big data processing, artificial intelligence, etc.

This requires breakthroughs in multiple technical fields. Once Tianxia Technology completes this challenge, it will definitely be a huge progress for the company.

Because these technologies can not only be used in ports, but also in many fields such as factory management, intelligent manufacturing, navigation systems, wireless communications, chip manufacturing, and unmanned driving.

This is equivalent to giving money to Tianxia Technology and letting it do technical research, which is of great benefit to promoting the technological development of Tianxia Technology.

...

After spending a week in the mainland, I returned to the United States in the summer.

As August enters, the merger of Columbia Records and MCA Records is also coming to an end.

Both are large record companies with many people and complicated people, and have a long history and accumulating a lot of problems, so mergers are not easy.

In addition, the outside world's opposition has been rising, which has caused considerable resistance to this merger.

But no matter what, after three months of long efforts, the two companies finally merged into one, which made Xia Tian feel relieved.

The new company after the merger is Yiming Tianxia Records, but the brand of Columbia Records and MCA Records is still retained, and the records released in the future will still be trademarked by the two companies. After all, these two brands have been passed down for decades and are well-known to many fans.

However, Xia Tian also knows that even if the merger is successful now, it will be just the beginning and there will be a long running-in period in the future.

He also gave his own opinions on the company's future development.

First, let record companies work hard on ramp;b, hip-hop, and electronic dance music.

These three categories are the most popular music genres in the future. For example, the top American singers such as Jay-z, Eminem, Arthur Boy, Lee Wayne, Mars Brother, Rihanna, Beyoncé, etc., all became famous by these songs.

The second is to let record companies pay more attention to discovering the combination of handsome men and beautiful women.

For adolescent boys and girls, nothing is more charming than youth idols. Those idols are both beautiful and have good personalities, and can sing so many good songs and dance such beautiful dances, which is simply fascinating.

There is take-that in front, the boy on the street, the boy on the back, the boy on the back, the boy on the super boy, and after entering the new century, there are also combinations such as the Jonas brothers and the Little Pot Group... It can be said that for young boys and girls, these handsome men and beauties are always attractive.

However, an idol group like this will not be popular for too long. Because it attracts young men and girls, and the minds of young men and girls are the most changeable. I still like this thing today and I like that tomorrow, so it is usually very good to be popular for three or five years. Therefore, it is necessary to constantly discover new people and keep them fresh at all times.

The third is to cooperate with Tianxia Production to launch music-related TV programs and TV series.

In his previous life, the American reality talent show "American Idol" made many stars famous and also received extremely high ratings.

The TV series "Glee" has also made many old songs that have long been buried in the corner of history shine again, and has once again become popular songs on the rankings.

There are tens of thousands of songs in Columbia Records and MCA Records library, but only a few are popular, and there are still a large number of people who are not interested in it.
