The development of overseas colonies requires a large investment of people and funds. If the government only relies on some preferential conditions to attract immigrants, the development process will be very slow. The introduction of investors through investment promotion has been proven in past history.

It is an effective method that can greatly speed up the development and construction of new colonies.

However, due to historical reasons, the domestic people's attention has always been focused on the mainland, and there is not much interest in the distant South China Sea. Therefore, the development of the Xingdao area has been tepid, and it is difficult to attract the domestic population to move in. It can only be from surrounding areas.

The country found a way and gradually became one of the overseas regions with the lowest proportion of Han people.

The effect of investment promotion activities is roughly the same. Only a few strong commercial organizations with official background will set up permanent offices and purchase some industries in Xingdao due to the needs of long-term development. However, the development intensity in the agricultural field

, such as large plantations, collective farms, etc., there has always been a relatively large gap compared with the country.

So far, the main source of income for the Sing Tao region is shipping and mining. Although the income situation is not bad, the Sing Tao authorities also hope to introduce more investors from China to enrich local industrial institutions.

Of course, Tan Tianming also hopes that the current publicity activities hosted by himself can play a role in attracting investment. Judging from the reactions of tea guests like Jingsi Pavilion, it seems that this first step has already achieved good results, which also makes

He felt very relieved that at least his efforts were in the right direction and the money and energy invested would not be in vain.

However, before Tan Tianming could find out who the man who was interested in Xingdao was from, he saw Huo Dechuan hurriedly walking into the gate of Jingsi Pavilion.

The two made an appointment to meet here, but Huo Dechuan probably didn't expect that Tan Tianming would be sitting in the lobby on the ground floor today, so he went straight upstairs with his head buried without looking much.

When Tan Tianming saw this, he had no choice but to get up immediately and follow him.

When he got to the top floor, he saw Huo Dechuan looking around, probably looking for him.

When Huo De heard that he appeared at the top of the stairs, he quickly came over and greeted him: "Brother Tan, I arrived before you today!"

Tan Tianming hesitated and said: "With my status...will I cause criticism if I give a speech?"

The temporary addition of Tan Tianming's speech is just one of many changes. The real focus of Huo De's biography is that the increase in costs caused by these changes must be reimbursed by Tan Tianming.

Tan Tianming asked while watching: "Is this adding a link for me to give a public speech?"

Due to the surge in the number of people participating in the event, more manpower must be added that day to maintain the smooth progress of all aspects. For this reason, many yamen also need to be managed, otherwise the government will find a reason to ban it when the event comes.

But all the efforts were really wasted.

But most of it has already been spent, and it is impossible to cut off these subsequent expenses in order to save a little. Tan Tianming can only pay for additional expenses according to the amount.

Although Huo Dezhuan's fees are a bit shady, his work is really unambiguous.

Tan Tianming saw that he was sweating profusely, so he didn't say much, so he asked him to sit down first, and asked the waiter to quickly serve a pot of good tea and get a few more refreshments so that Huo Dechuan could take advantage of this moment to relax a little.

Fill your stomach.

Huo Dechuan nodded and said: "It's hard to get the chance, Brother Tan. We expect at least tens of thousands of people to attend the event that day. You can take this opportunity to say a few words and do more publicity for Xingdao. The effect will be better than landing

The article in the newspaper was much better.”

Huo De's legend is actually true. There are not many personnel stationed in Sanya from Xingdao, and there are even fewer officials. Their status is much worse than that of a second-generation man like him.

Huo Dechuan had to re-coordinate the activity process with the five major dental shops, and had to report to the government and apply for the dispatch of police to help maintain order on the scene.

Tan Tianming gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll try my best!"

Huo Dechuan saw that he was still hesitating, so he continued to persuade: "Brother Tan, we have invested so much in the early stage, and you don't want the final effect to be greatly compromised because you can't gain the full trust of the people, right?"

After Huo De took his seat, he took out a stack of paper from his body and handed it to Tan Tianming: "This is the flow of activities on the day of the first round of lottery. Take a look and see if there are any questions."

Even if Tan Tianming doesn't care much about money, he still can't help but feel sad when he sees the number of new expenses listed in Huo De Chuan. In comparison, the editing fees paid for publishing articles in newspapers are really nothing.

What's going on?

Even if Tan Tianming specially chartered a carriage for him to improve his work efficiency, it was still very tiring to travel here and there every day.

The activity process for the day of the first round of lottery has actually been planned long ago, but with the rapid increase in the popularity of the event, the number of people who will participate in the day's event has already exceeded the original estimate, so many links must be rearranged, otherwise

There will definitely be trouble on the day of the event.

Although Tan Tianming is young, his father Tan Juren is the actual second-in-command of the Sing Tao Region. He is indeed qualified to stand in front of the public as the representative of Sing Tao.

Huo De preached: "Brother Tan, what I want is your identity! Think about it, if you want to promote Xingdao, attract business, and attract immigrants, who can be the most convincing? Is it possible to let the people from Yaxing

Can a shopkeeper come forward? How many people can believe the pie they painted? Let’s not talk about anything else. Currently, your home is in Xingdao and you are in Sanya. Is there anyone more important than you? "

He doesn't expect Huo Dechuan to save himself much money now. He only hopes that after the money is spent, it can achieve the expected results.

The scale of this publicity event is indeed large, but Tan Tianming does not have much experience in this and can only act as the final decision-maker. Huo Dechuan is almost always busy coordinating all parties inside and outside.

After Huo Dechuan got the money, he didn't stay long. He drank two large cups of tea, stood up and said goodbye to Tan Tianming. He had a lot of things at hand, and they all needed to be completed in the past few days. Indeed,

There was no time to continue chatting with Tan Tianming.

Three more days later, it was finally the day for the first round of draws. Tan Tianming got up early, put on a clean outfit, left the college, called a carriage, and rushed to Victory Square.

Usually not many people gather in Victory Square at this time in the morning, but today there are some exceptions.

When Tan Tianming got off the bus next to Victory Square, he saw a large number of people waiting in line in the square. There were at least dozens of people just maintaining order in the queue.
