Chapter 1490 Hong Kong Central Park is about to open, shocking Hong Kong
New York's Central Park is located in the center of Manhattan, covering an area of 340 hectares, covering 150 blocks, with a total of 93 kilometers of walking paths, 9000 benches and 6000 trees.
The park facilities include acres of light green grassland, a small forest with lush trees, a courtyard, an ice rink, a merry-go-round, an amphitheater, two small zoos, a lake for boating, tennis courts, sports fields, art galleries, etc.
There are many activities in the park, from regular softball games to various concerts held on festival days, providing residents and tourists in the bustling city with much-needed leisure places and a peaceful spiritual home.
New York's Central Park is free to visit. The number of visitors to the park reaches more than 2500 million every year, with nearly 30 visitors per day in summer and about 3 visitors per day in winter.
New York's Central Park is beautiful in all four seasons, with bright reds and tender greens in spring, bright sunshine in summer, fiery red maples in autumn, and desolate silvery white in winter.
Xiangjiang Central Park was designed by hiring a group of the world's most powerful designers on the basis of New York's Central Park.
These designers include I.M. Pei and his son, who personally designed the Empire State Building, as well as designers from Europe, the United States, China, and Japan in architecture, gardening, aesthetics, etc.
In addition, in addition to a fund provided by the Hong Kong Governor's Office, the Hong Kong Central Park also receives donations from all walks of life around the world.
Among them, the Imperial Group Foundation donated a lot of money.
But this time, when Yang Ming and others entered here for the first time, he was indeed surprised.
As for other people, it goes without saying.
This is actually Xiangjiang Central Park.
After all, this place is still very different from New York's Central Park.
This is the original long runway of Hong Kong Kai Tak International Airport, and then reclamation was carried out on this basis, expanding the area to exceed the area of New York's Central Park.
There is sea water on both sides here, which is part of Victoria Harbour. However, on the opposite side is the Central District of Hong Kong, and then the most prosperous place in Hong Kong and Kowloon.
It can be said that this is one of the best places in Xiangjiang.
Now that all of it is used to build such a big Central Park, it can be said that the meaning is really different.
New York's Central Park covers an area of nearly 341 hectares.
The Xiangjiang Central Park is even larger, close to 400 hectares, which is 4 square kilometers, or million square meters.
The average park may only be tens of thousands of square meters, up to hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of square meters.
However, this is four million square meters, which is already terrifying in terms of area.
Nowadays, in addition to a large number of lawns, precious trees, and gardens, there are also a large number of playgrounds, sports fields, etc.
However, all of these are free and are provided free of charge to Hong Kong citizens and tourists visiting Hong Kong from all over the world.
Xiangjiang Central Park is very large.
Based on the current area, it would be difficult to finish shopping in a whole day.
Therefore, during this period, Yang Ming and others got on a small tour bus and took a look around Xiangjiang Central Park.
It's almost 11:30 am.
Yang Ming and others have finished reading.
He is very satisfied with the Xiangjiang Central Park. At least he thinks it is no worse than New York's Central Park, or even better.
When the trees here become forests to a certain extent, the environment here may be better.
People like him feel that they can come here and finish playing when they have time.
Because as far as the most prosperous urban area in Xiangjiang is concerned, this is probably the largest green place.
Because even on Victoria Peak, if you look at it now, it is dominated by houses.
Before leaving, the Governor of Xiangjiang, Zhong Yijie, asked: "Sir Yang, what do you think of this place?"
"It's just as I imagined, comparable to New York's Central Park."
"I think so too."
Before leaving, the person in charge of the Xiangjiang Central Park Management Office brought a pen and ink, hoping that Sir Yang and Chung Yijie could nominate in person.
Originally, Yang Ming rarely participated in things like this.
Now let him write it.
Yang Ming also wrote on the paper in traditional Chinese characters and simplified Chinese characters.
Hong Kong Central Park.
But Zhong Yijie wrote it in English.
There are others who wrote in Oriental, Korean, French, German, etc.
After completing this, the task of inspecting Xiangjiang Central Park in advance will be completed.
. . .
That afternoon.
Reporters from Xiangjiang TVB, Xiangjiang Asia Television, Xiangjiang Radio, Xiangjiang Oriental Daily, Sing Tao Daily, Xiangjiang Business News, as well as major overseas newspapers and TV stations in Xiangjiang reported in detail on Xiangjiang Central Park.
These reporters were full of praise for Hong Kong Central Park, believing it to be one of the best central parks in the world.
Especially in the city center of Xiangjiang where land is at a premium, it is very rare.
That night.
The evening papers of all major newspapers in Hong Kong are out.
Deep Water Bay.
Li family villa.
Li Jiacheng just came back from get off work. The maid changed Li Jiacheng's suit, and Li Jiacheng sat on the sofa with his legs crossed.
Before dinner, he would habitually pick up the newspapers and read them.
Although the Internet is becoming more and more developed, Li Jiacheng is still not used to understanding global information through the Internet, and still thinks newspapers and periodicals are the best.
Now when he was reading the newspapers, he found that the headlines were all about the chairman of the Empire Group, Sir Yang, and the Governor of Hong Kong, Chung Yi Kit, as well as representatives from all walks of life in Hong Kong, who inspected Hong Kong Central Park in advance.
Judging from this news, both Sir Yang and Governor Chung Yi-kit are full of praise.
However, Li Jiacheng watched the news and thought of the Kai Tak International Airport runway. He felt that it would be too wasteful to use it as a central park. It would be better to divide the land for auction and build a commercial building every year. The rent would be reduced every year. All quite a lot.
Of course, Li Jiacheng also knows that even if he wants to compete with Sir Yang, he may not be able to compete with Sir Yang's companies.
Whether it is Wharf, Land, or other real estate companies, they are too strong in Hong Kong.
Of course, Li Jiacheng felt that it was really not easy for Yang Ming to turn this piece of land into Xiangjiang Central Park.
At least, Li Jiacheng knew he couldn't do it.
However, Sir Yang was willing.
This Xiangjiang Central Park will definitely become one of the main landmarks of Xiangjiang in the future.
"Daddy, I'm back."
Li Jiacheng was reading the newspaper there, and the voice of Li Zeju, who had just gotten off work, came from the door.
Seeing that it was the eldest son coming back from get off work, the other party nodded.
"Has Fu Xin gone to his parents' house and not come back yet?"
"Daddy, Fu Xin went to Canada. I'm afraid it will take a while before he comes back."
Li Jiacheng nodded.
The main reason is that now the daughter-in-law has brought the children there, making the villa a little deserted.
Usually when Li Jiacheng is thinking about business, he likes to be quiet.
However, when he comes back from get off work, he also hopes to enjoy family happiness.
"Daddy, what's the big news?"
"Hong Kong Central Park is ready to open."
Li Zeju came to sit next to Li Jiacheng and saw that the headlines of these newspapers were all about the news about Xiangjiang Central Park.
"Daddy, this will be of great benefit to Hong Kong's tourism industry. Listed companies related to tourism may all see a rise tomorrow."
