Chapter 2738 Arrived in Tokyo
After Li Zhongxin settled the matter, he left him and lived in a small courtyard with a very memorable feeling, and took a bus from Fengbanshan to the Nanyuan Airport where his plane was parked.
He stopped Wang Deqing's Mercedes-Benz at the door of Zhongxin Company's office near the airport and asked the office staff to take them to the boarding place. They boarded Li Zhongxin's private plane and flew directly from Beijing to Tokyo, Japan.
The plane flew over Tokyo and began to circumferentially and descend. Looking at the bustling urban agglomerations, Li Zhongxin felt a lot of emotion.
Li Zhongxin knew in his heart that although China is developing very rapidly now, at this time, the size and degree of large cities in China are still much worse than that in Tokyo.
You know, the city of Tokyo can be said to be an international super metropolis in this era.
After continued development after World War II, Tokyo has not only become a major city in the world for business, finance, pop culture and fashion, but also one of the most economic development and wealthy cities in the world. At this time, Tokyo was the largest metropolitan area in the world and the most important world-class city in Asia.
At this time, there were four world-class cities, including New York in the United States, London in the United Kingdom, Paris in France, and Tokyo in Japan. There was no line-up in the Shanghai Stock Exchange and Beijing in China. This shows how prosperous Tokyo was at this time.
Li Zhongxin knew that the city of Tokyo was originally called Edo, and it was once the residence of the Tokugawa Shogunate. Now there is a river in Tokyo called Edogawa. The surname of Edogawa Conan comes from this river. He wrote these things when he wrote about the famous detective Conan.
After the Meiji Restoration, Beijing and Shanghai became the seat of Japan's central government. Since it was east of the original capital, Kyoto, it was renamed Tokyo.
Since the Western Japan region (equivalent to the Central Plains of our country) strongly opposed the movement of the capital, although the Meiji government moved the government to Tokyo, it did not dare to officially establish the capital of Tokyo for a long time.
Since then, as the actual capital of Japan, Tokyo's status has always been unnamed, but this did not hinder Tokyo's rapid development. After World War II, with the rise of Japan's economy, Tokyo's construction became more and more developed.
At this time, almost all the top 500 companies in the world had branches in Tokyo, and 38 of the top 500 companies were headquartered in Tokyo, including famous companies such as Toyota, Canon, Sony, Toshiba, and Honda. Of course, at this time, it also included Chuanxin Mitsui Bank.
Li Zhongxin is very clear about one thing, that is, what kind of relationship does large enterprises and large cities have.
In this way, in the city, large enterprises will provide support for the lives of urban residents, provide the production and transaction of daily necessities, provide more employment opportunities for urban residents, and have more supporting facilities to promote the city to continue to develop.
To use the simplest example, if a large enterprise sets up a headquarters in a city, the headquarters has many people first, and they are all top-level people.
The branches and staff of the company will have a large number of personnel coming here to report their work, a large number of personnel going to the headquarters to report on their work, and carry out some other activities, etc. Through these things, the development of the surrounding areas will be driven. The surrounding areas of a large enterprise will have considerable potential. It can be said that the surrounding areas will develop rapidly because of the headquarters of the enterprise.
In large cities, large enterprises pay taxes and support local fiscal revenue, which can strengthen urban construction, education investment, etc.
Not only that, large enterprises will also promote the development of the financial industry. Every enterprise is basically the same. They all need a large amount of loans to develop. Then, residents' deposits will be available to utilize. Residents can directly invest in the enterprise, or invest in the enterprise's stocks, or the residents' savings will be loaned to enterprises through banks, etc. In short, as long as there are large enterprises, they will drive the local economy.
Zhongxin Company’s headquarters is in Jiangcheng, which has also driven the rapid economic development of Jiangcheng. Therefore, Li Zhongxin has such a feeling.
The reason why China's super cities are not yet at the level of Tokyo, Japan, is that Li Zhongxin feels that the number of super large enterprises in China has a certain relationship. According to Li Zhongxin's idea, China's big urbanization and urban clustering process still has a while to go.
Another point is that China's development speed will start to accelerate at this time. One day, China's development speed will surpass developed countries such as Europe and the United States, and Japan will be far behind by China. Li Zhongxin has such confidence and such an idea.
The plane quickly landed at the private airport of Masako Mitsui in the suburbs. After Li Zhongxin put away his thoughts and Feng Banshan got off the plane, he was soon warmly welcomed by Masako Mitsui and Keika Komura.
"Loyalty and faithful! You have been saying that you have to come to us. It took you so long to come. We have been waiting for you for a lot of hard work.
I heard that you came here today and we were here early to wait for your plane. You tell me! What should you do?" After seeing Li Zhongxin get off the plane, Mitsui Masako said to Li Zhongxin with a smile.
Masako Mitsui was always looking forward to what Li Zhongxin said about coming to Tokyo, but Li Zhongxin always said that she was going to Tokyo and never left, which made her anxious. Li Zhongxin finally came here.
She and Haruko came here to wait for Li Zhongxin's plane in the morning. She wanted to ask what Li Zhongxin thought and what he wanted to give them a statement.
"Yes! Brother Zhongxin, you kept saying that you wanted to come to see me and bring me a gift. It's been so much time since you came here. I miss you so much here." Haruko said to Li Zhongxin with his eyes shining.
Compared to Masako Mitsui, Haruko missed Li Zhongxin even more. During this period, Li Zhongxin called her several times and kept saying that she was about to go to Tokyo, but she never came. Haruko really hoped that Li Zhongxin would arrive early, and even wanted to see the gifts Li Zhongxin brought to her.
"I also want to come to Tokyo early, but I have not finished dealing with the matters in our country's capital, otherwise I would have flew over early.
