From an investment perspective, Microsoft's market value has reached its peak now, and it is the most cost-effective to clear it.

Meng Shuang mentioned another issue. Putting aside the stock returns, Microsoft is a company with a very strong main business and almost monopoly. They have a very dominant position in the PC operating system, office software, browsers, databases and other industries. Sugar Cube Capital and its affiliates own a lot of shares in Microsoft. If integrated, it will be enough to become a major shareholder of Microsoft and have the ability to influence Microsoft's decisions. Meng Shuang is considering whether her investment in Microsoft is only pursuing investment returns and whether she should include Microsoft in the Fangxia industry array.

Bao Feiyang pondered for a moment and said, "Microsoft has too much influence. We can hold shares in it, but it is still a bit unrealistic to become a major shareholder of Microsoft and even influence Microsoft's decisions. This can be seen from the fact that we want to introduce wafer production equipment..."

Bao Feiyang said: "So, we can only make money by investing in Microsoft's stocks. If we want to become a shareholder of Microsoft and a major shareholder, and then affect Microsoft's decisions, it is no longer necessary! Even if we operate with overseas capital and overseas background companies, we will be targeted by the US government. If you want to check some things, do you really think that the US intelligence department is a vegetarian?"

Bao Feiyang knew Meng Shuang's idea, and it seemed quite tempting to become a shareholder and partner of Microsoft. Relying on Microsoft's dominance in the operating system and PC fields, they may be able to obtain additional help in investment and operation in related fields. However, in Bao Feiyang's view, this kind of help is far less than the direct income obtained from Microsoft. After getting this money, investing in other companies will also have considerable income. The most important thing is that Bao Feiyang knows what to invest in. Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu are naturally very good investment targets. In addition, Amazon, Google, and Apple will also have market value greater than Microsoft in the future, and now their market value is only a few billion US dollars.

When Meng Shuang heard Bao Feiyang say this, she had no objection. In addition to taking on part of the management of the technology center, Meng Shuang has gradually shifted her energy to sugar cube investment. However, she is mainly responsible for domestic investment and international investment. Bao Feiyang is mainly providing decision-making, and the eldest lady of the Tang family is responsible for the operation.

The future development of the new economy is remarkable, and Bao Feiyang cannot miss it. However, his participation in the new economy is mainly investment and does not want to interfere too much. In contrast, he is still more concerned about the development of the real economy. Sugar Cube Capital not only owns venture capital, but also mainly invests in industrial investment.

"Sugar Cube Capital should be split as soon as possible..."

Bao Feiyang said: "Part of them do investment in the new economy, including venture capital, and the other part does capital investment in industrial industries. The new economy is still called sugar cube investment, and industrial capital investment can be called Fangshi Capital..."

Once your sugar cube investment clears the stocks of Microsoft, American Online and other technology companies in your hands before the bursting of the Internet bubble next year, you will have hundreds of billions of dollars in funds, which is very terrible. So Bao Feiyang has to arrange for sugar cube investment to be split before this. The big framework is to split it into two, becoming sugar cube capital for new economy investment, and Fangshi Capital for industrial investment. In terms of specific operations, it may be split into more parts. In addition to own capital, it may also include several private equity funds.

The growth rate of technology companies is enviable, but if the industrial capital is done well, it is actually not inferior. Bao Feiyang hopes to further improve the industrial layout he can control through dazzling capital operations.

It is precisely because there are many funds that can be mobilized through various channels that Bao Feiyang is not actually worried about Xinpu Steel's funding issues. Bao Feiyang is happy about Maxi's initiative to reveal his investment intention, but he does not attach much importance to it. It is naturally better to be willing to invest. Whether it is Fangxia New Materials, Fangta Mining, or Tangsheng Heavy Industry, you can invest. However, when Maxi's investment joins, it can improve the governance structure of Xinpu Steel, and Fangxia Group's funds can also be used in other aspects. Fangxia Group is not short of money, but there is always a place to use money.

After more than a week of preparation, Pujiang City officially submitted a construction plan for the Xinpu Steel and Tianjiang 10 million tons steel base to the Development and Reform Commission. Although Chunshan District was in a strife and wanted to compete for the dominance of the Tianjiang 10 million tons steel base, Huixun District did a solid preparation in the early stage. The key is that several joint venture projects were introduced by Huixun District. Whether it is ThyssenKrupp or South Korea Pohang, they are not interested in the invitations issued by Chunshan District. If Chunshan District fails to intercept the ruling, they will naturally have to give up.

On the issue of applying for the World Exhibition, Chundong New District finally let go. Chundong New District recognized the deepening and comparing of the Binjiang plan, and no longer blindly rejected it. Of course, which plan to adopt in the end depends on the final weighing and choice. However, without the firm opposition and setting up the plan of Chundong New District, Bao Feiyang believed that the Binjiang plan would definitely stand out.

For Bao Feiyang, whether it is a tens of million tons of steel base or the Binjiang Plan, at this level, it has basically cleared the initial obstacles and entered the stage of promotion. Another major issue related to the Binjiang Plan, the relocation of the Jiangwan District shipbuilding industry enterprises has also entered a critical stage.

The shipbuilding industry in Jiangwan District is about to be relocated. Chunshan District and Chundong New District both want them to move there, especially Chunshan District. After missing a tens of millions of tons of steel base, they do not want to let go of this shipbuilding industry base. They proposed a plan to build a shipbuilding industry base in Chunshan.

Chundong New District is also very interested in building a shipbuilding industry base. They hope that the port industry in Chundong New District will be added to petrochemical and machinery, and another shipbuilding industry. However, the problems faced by these two districts are the tight shoreline resources.

Whenever this comes, Zhang Zehu, the leader of Chundong New Area, would think of the merger plan of Chundong New Area proposed by Bao Feiyang. The shoreline of Huixun District is longer than that of Chundong New Area and Chunshan District. Although this section of the shoreline is affected by silt and silt, there are no deep-water port conditions like Gaoqiao and Chunshan, but there are still many shorelines with a depth of seven or eight meters deep water channel conditions. In addition, it is also near the river, and it is convenient to transfer by laying tracks and trains.

However, Chunshan District and Chundong New District still put forward very generous conditions and sincerity to convince Jiangnan ships to move to them and also work in the city.

To this end, the city once again held a coordination meeting to gather people from shipbuilding companies such as Jiangwan District, Chunshan District, Chundong New District, Huixun District, and Jiangnan Shipbuilding to discuss the relocation and new construction of shipbuilding companies.

"District Director Bao, you already have a steel base of tens of millions of tons. Don't snatch these shipbuilding companies from us anymore, right?" Before the meeting, Zhang Baoshan, the mayor of Chunshan District, said to Bao Feiyang with a smile.

Bao Feiyang smiled and said, "District Mayor Zhang, it's not that I want to grab it, but in terms of all aspects, Chunshan District has no space to build a large-scale shipbuilding industry base."

Zhang Baoshan glared at Bao Feiyang. Chunshan District did propose a plan to build a shipbuilding industrial base, but the scale of this base is limited by shoreline resources and cannot be said to be very large. Hearing Bao Feiyang say this, Zhang Baoshan was very worried that Bao Feiyang would propose another super-large plan. In this regard, Chunshan District has no way to compete with Huixun District, which is still a virgin land in industry. Whether it is the city or the central government, he definitely hopes to see a more high-end plan.

"The district mayor, why don't we discuss it? Our Chunshan District can support the merger of Chunshan Steel and Xinpu Steel, and relocate part of Chunshan Steel's production line to Huixun's steel base. As compensation, you must support the construction of Jiangnan ships in Chunshan District!" Zhang Baoshan had no choice but to propose a new plan.

"What are you doing?" Qian Zaixiang, executive deputy district mayor of Chundong New District, immediately stopped hearing Zhang Baoshan's words.

"The relocation and construction of Jiangnan ships is a big deal. How can you bargain like buying vegetables in the vegetable market and then decide privately?" Qian Zaixiang said dissatisfied.

"The coastline resources and land space of Chunshan New District are indeed limited. Even if the Jiangnan ships are moved now, the future development space will be limited. Will it be possible to move again in a few years?"

Zhang Baoshan looked at Qian Zaixiang with dissatisfaction: "Cor Qian, in terms of coastline resources and land, your Chundong New Area has no advantages compared to Chunshan District, right?"

Qian Zaixiang glanced at Bao Feiyang helplessly: "Indeed, shoreline resources are very important to the development of shipbuilding companies, and our Chundong New Area has no advantage in this regard. But..."

Qian Zaixiang said: "The riverside plan of the World Exhibition proposed by District Principal Bao gave us inspiration. The shoreline of our Chundong New District is tight, but the shoreline resources of Huixun District are many. Since the World Exhibition can be jointly organized, the shipbuilding base can also be jointly organized! We can build a shipbuilding base in the adjacent places of the two districts. We can use the rich shoreline resources and land of Shanghuixun District, and use the industrial foundation and management advantages of our Chundong New District to work together to build a world-class shipbuilding base... District Principal Bao, are you saying this plan good?"
