Chapter 66. Large-Scale Infrastructure

     Zheng Xuan knocked on the door of Li Yaolin’s office, and the latter looked up from the computer screen: “Did you send uncle and aunt to the high-speed rail?”

     “Yes, I changed my ticket to another train. Fortunately, it is not a holiday, and there are still many tickets.” 

     Zheng Xuan put a dessert on Li Yaolin’s desk, “I passed by a cake shop and saw Xue Mei Niang, so I bought one for you.”

     Li Yaolin happily began to unpack the box: “Thank you, Brother Xuan!”

     “I should thank you. If the security guards hadn’t arrived in time, I don’t know how long they would have been entangled.”

     Li Yaolin asked: “Are they all gone?”

     Zheng Xuan nodded, and said with a sense of relief: “After knowing that you are the owner of Xingzhou Island, how can Sun Fen have the face to see you again? From what I know about him, he will not attend the trial because he cannot face the fact that he has lost. “

     “Although I don’t care what he thinks, it would be best if he doesn’t show up in the future.”

    “Not only will he not show up, he won’t even mention your identity to others. Because people like him can’t stand the fact that someone he once looked down upon will later look down on him from a high position.”

     Li Yaolin smiled and said with some malicious intent: “Fortunately, their whole family came this time, so I don’t have to check their ticket purchase information one by one and block them one by one.”

     With the smart butler, one-click delivery of “blacklist family bucket” saves trouble and worry.

     This is the limitation of the real-name ticketing system. Even if she privately finds the identity information of Sun Fen’s family, she can’t block the other party at will. Only when the other party buys a ticket or buys the products of Xingzhou Island can she use the rules of Xingzhou Island to implement the blacklisting operation.

     Zheng Xuan was on vacation, but she was still thinking about work. She said, “When I came back, I took a walk around the pier and found that there seemed to be fewer boats that cheated tourists under the banner of Xingzhou Island.”

     Li Yaolin nodded: “After the ‘Tuna Cup’, many tourists know that they can only buy tickets for regular boat fishing experiences on the island. In addition, with our publicity, few tourists have been deceived.”

     And she heard that Yu Fan and those boatmen who cheated tourists have started to “eat each other” – the boatmen can cheat fewer tourists, and their business will naturally get worse, but they have an agreement with Yu Fan and can no longer use their own boats to accept private orders, so they all clamor to terminate the cooperation with Yu Fan.

     How could Yu Fan agree? If the boats in the fishing village are unwilling to cooperate with him, his power to curb the development of Xingzhou Island will be greatly weakened. Besides, he is not a philanthropist and will not let the other party break the contract.

     The two sides started to argue about this matter.

     What made Yu Fan even more upset was yet to come…

     After he found out that Xingzhou Island had applied for a scenic spot rating, he immediately reported it.

     He thought that the matter would develop as he had imagined, but not long after, he received news that the province and city had approved Xingzhou Island’s application and formally recommended it to the National Scenic Spot Evaluation Committee to apply for a formal 4A scenic spot rating. The evaluation team would come to the site for evaluation soon.

     Yu Fan immediately went to the leaders of the relevant departments to give feedback: “Xingzhou Island has only been in operation for a few months, how can it apply for a rating?”

     The leader’s reply was that Xingzhou Island (Taipa Island) had been developed and operated for many years, and Li Yaolin’s name change was also approved by the relevant departments, so the business hours would not be calculated based on the operating time after the name change.

     Yu Fan: “…”

     Is this okay? !

     The leader also said: “You are the one who is sailing on the island. Let me tell you! Recently, many people have complained that you have signed unfair terms with many boatmen, disrupting the market order and tarnishing the tourism image of our city.” 

     Yu Fan knew that the leader was warning him as soon as he heard it. Although there was no conclusive evidence, he had touched the bottom line of the relevant departments, which made the leader very unhappy, Yu Fan left in disgrace and terminated the cooperation relationship with the fishermen after returning. 

     In order to laugh at him, Mr. Zhong, his former nemesis, revealed a piece of news to him: “Xingzhou Island is going to set up a sea fishing club. You are so well-informed, you should know about this, right? Oh, by the way, I heard that the ‘First Beibu Gulf Cup Fishing Invitational Tournament’ held by the province will be held on Xingzhou Island, so the presidents of the Leisure Fishing Association will fully support Xingzhou Island to set up a club, and are preparing to set up an alliance at that time for common development!”

     Yu Fan: “Why are you gloating? If Xingzhou Island sets up a club, won’t it also steal your business?”

     Mr. Zhong laughed and said: “The club on Xingzhou Island will not sell products, it will only organize public welfare sea fishing activities and host fishing competitions commissioned by the government. The most important thing is that they also invited us to join the alliance. Do you think that after the club on Xingzhou Island develops, will anyone still care about the fishing association?”

     Yu Fan’s face was livid. This group of people was planning to override the functions of the Youshi Fishing Association, so he, the president of the fishing association, would have no say in the sea fishing circle.

     It would be fine if it was his mortal enemy, Mr. Zhong, but he didn’t expect that those business friends who were so close to him would also cooperate with Li Yaolin!

     At this moment, he felt that the whole world had betrayed him.

     He called Fang Xinhua, angry and aggrieved, and questioned him: “Xingzhou Island just caught a tuna. Is that tuna made of gold? How can you attract so many people?”

     Fang Xinhua said: “The world is bustling, and all exchanges are for profit. You usually calculate clearly, why are you so naive to ask this question now? Do you think you lost to a fish? Is it just because of a fish that Mr. Li can beat you? Is it also because of a fish that everyone is approaching her?

     “In fact, you didn’t see the situation clearly, but everyone saw it clearly. When Xingzhou Island just started the boat fishing project, everyone was not optimistic, so no one would say anything if you played those tricks. But Mr. Li showed everyone that as long as she wanted to win, she could win. She has the ability to resist risks and enhance brand value. If you are with her, you won’t have to worry about not getting a share of the profits. That’s why everyone chooses her. “

     It can be seen that he was very savvy at the time. Once he smelled something wrong, he immediately sought opportunities for cooperation.

     If Yu Fan had not backstabbed his partner, Mr. Zhong, and forced him to leave, his credibility and reputation would not have become so bad after Li Yaolin, the control group, appeared.

…

     The application of “Youshi Xingzhou Sea Fishing Club” was quickly approved by the cultural and tourism department and was officially established. Li Yaolin served as the club consultant, and Lao Li served as the director, responsible for handling the daily affairs of the club.

     There are five other deputy directors, all of whom are relatively famous and powerful anglers in the Youshi sea fishing circle.

     There are more than 20 directors under the deputy directors, some of whom also serve as fishing associations and various sea fishing clubs.

     As soon as the sea fishing club in Xingzhou Island started to develop members, more than a hundred anglers signed up through various channels, and the registration has not yet closed, and new registrations are constantly coming in every day.

     When Lao Li saw that several applications were submitted by anglers who were bribed by Yu Fan during the last “Tuna Cup” event, he didn’t say anything, but just quietly put the application aside…, don’t even think about getting in this year, let’s see if he still remembers this next year!

     Thinking of Hai Ge’s previous tip-off, although it didn’t play much of a role, it reminded Lao Li, indicating that the other party was not completely without merit. After hesitating for a moment, he still called him and asked, “Do you want to come to our club?”

     Hai Ge took a puff of cigarette and said, “If he doesn’t fire me, I’ll stay here. If he wants to play any tricks, I can tell you in time.”

     Lao Li didn’t expose what he had done in the past, and Li Yaolin didn’t care, but he didn’t have the face to make a living under the other party’s hands.

     “Okay. “Old Li didn’t say much.

     When the club’s work got on track, the employees of Xingzhou Island also finished their rotation. During this period, the National Day summaries of various departments had been sorted out, so Li Yaolin held a summary meeting.

     Due to the additional flights during the National Day, the average number of tourists landing on the island was about 3,500 per day. Together with the tourists who stayed overnight on the island, the number of tourists received per day reached 3,900.

     During the seven days of the National Day, the total number of tourists received was 25,500; the revenue from boat tickets and tickets was 1.5 million yuan.

     During the National Day, the room rate of the holiday cabin was increased by 40%. Starting from the night before the National Day, the turnover for seven nights was 195,000 yuan until the night of the 6th.

     Except for the first day when only half of the camping spots were rented out during the day, the camping area was rented out during the day. Whether it is day or night, the camping sites are fully booked. After a long holiday, the turnover is about 80,000 yuan.

     The turnover of the seafood buffet restaurant is even higher, with an average of 350,000 yuan, a maximum of 370,000 yuan per day, and a total turnover of 2.45 million yuan.

     The boat fishing project started operating on the first day of National Day. The “Tuna Cup” on the 3rd made the project a hit. The number of people experiencing boat fishing every day is full, with a total turnover of more than 50,000 yuan. The sales of related Poseidon brand fishing gear and bait also exceeded 200,000 yuan.

     The revenue of the market operation department also includes cultural and creative products, whose pre-sales have reached 440,000 yuan. The most booked is the cheap turtle model, followed by the model group of Xingzhou Island and the “Sea Fire” model, because Li Yaolin launched the “Sea Fire” again during the National Day, again It has aroused tourists’ enthusiasm for “Sea Fire”.

     Recently, various advertisers want to place advertisements on the island. Since it is still in the negotiation stage, this part of the income is not included for the time being.

     As for the diving shop, after recruiting several diving coaches and diving masters, the number of diving tourists that can be received per day has increased. In addition to the revenue from certification courses and diving equipment, the turnover during the seven days of the National Day has already exceeded 500,000 yuan.

     Including the revenue of convenience stores, the total turnover recognized by the system is more than 5.7 million yuan.

     Seeing this turnover, Li Yaolin’s first reaction was not to calculate how much money would be left in her pocket after deducting costs and taxes, but according to the project subsidy of Poseidon, the usable sea area next year will increase by at least 570 hectares!

     Li Yaolin has already started to calculate in her mind How to use the 570 hectares of sea area!

 

…

 

     Li Yaolin, who made money, started a large-scale infrastructure to cope with the evaluation work of the landscape evaluation committee:

     After the increase in the number of tourists, the public toilets were slightly insufficient, so three more public toilets had to be built; and two shower areas for men and women were built next to the camping area, with 50 shower rooms in each area.

     In order to meet the needs of some tourists who do not want to walk too long to the east but want to watch the sunrise, within the scope of reasonable planning, Li Yaolin also built a 1.5-meter-wide wooden staircase from the middle of the island, and then built a platform of about 50 square meters on the top of the mountain.

     In order to reduce the damage to the island’s vegetation and prevent tourists from climbing over the fence and affecting the birds living in the trees, the stairs and platforms were built relatively high. Li Yaolin also deliberately avoided areas where rare plants grow, for fear that tourists with bad hands would pull those plants.

     There is another advantage of building the stairs high. The view will be relatively wide, and photography enthusiasts can take pictures of some birds living in the forest here.

     “… Let’s call this platform ‘Sun Viewing Platform’!” Li Yaolin submitted the newly planned facility project on the APP. 

     “By the way, there have been a lot of comments and discussions about stars on the official website recently. As the level of the camping area increases, the stargazing effect seems to be much better than other places. Why not build a “star-gazing platform” there, which will just happen to form a “Starlight Sun and Moon” tourist area with the ‘Sun Viewing Platform’!”

     The upgraded camping area is not only better for stargazing. According to feedback from tourists camping there, there are obviously no flowers around, but they can vaguely smell the fragrance of flowers. Tourists with pollen allergies do not show allergic symptoms even if they smell the fragrance of flowers, so much so that they all think that this fragrance may be a strong perfume sprayed by some tourists.

     This scene of birds singing and flowers in the daytime and bright stars at night makes their camping experience very good, and they realize a real leisure and vacation life here.

     Li Yaolin said happily: “My naming skill are becoming more and more artistic!”

     The little mermaid: “…”

     It no longer wants to complain.

     In addition to the infrastructure that Li Yaolin could think of, Vice President Qi also gave some suggestions. He said: “In the future, our island can be planned as a 5A scenic spot, but the current conditions are limited, so let’s meet the minimum requirements of a 4A scenic spot first! According to the rating criteria, there is an internal transportation item with a score of 30 points. At present, there is no transportation on our island, so I propose to buy a batch of sightseeing cars and provide bicycle rental services…”

     “Well, I didn’t think about it.” Li Yaolin paused and said, 

     “Speaking of cars, our company doesn’t seem to have a public car yet? The finance department often has to go to the bank and the tax bureau, and you also have to go to government agencies frequently to do business. It’s troublesome not to have a public car. Why don’t you buy another public car!”

     Buying a public car was Lin Qitong’s suggestion, because Li Yaolin rarely went out for social events, and traveled by taxi. In addition, some employees had private cars, and they would not consider this matter, so she didn’t think of it until Lin Qitong reminded her.

     Vice President Qi said: “What kind of car does the boss want to buy? I suggest buying a car below 5 million or above 1 million, so that part of the company’s tax can be deducted.”

     Li Yaolin: “…”

     Is it possible?

     However, which employee dares to drive a luxury car worth millions to do business?

     Not to mention employees, even she, the boss, dares not drive a luxury car.

     She said: “It’s okay, I pay taxes and I am proud. Buy a car with high cost performance and durable driving.”

     Vice President Qi flattered: “The boss has a high level of ideological awareness!”

     Li Yaolin: “…”

     It’s feel like you are mocking me?
