619. Chapter 619 Groundbreaking Ceremony of Eastern Harbor Crossing


Su Cheng was not surprised when he heard Zhong Chuhong's words.

After all, Zhong Chuhong had said something similar to him before.

Moreover, the monthly rent provided to her now also gives her a taste of the sweetness.

Investing in many other businesses involves high risks, but investing in shops carries very small risks.

Su Cheng also said to Zhong Chuhong that every once in a while, housing prices will definitely experience a period of decline, but after the decline, they will rebound quickly.

After all, Xiangjiang's ever-growing population and continuously developing economy mean that housing prices in Xiangjiang are unlikely to be low.

If nothing else, at least Su City knows that before the 21st century, there is no need to worry about real estate in Xiangjiang. Especially now, it is still at a low price. If you enter the market at this time, you will earn a lot in the future. It’s too easy to make the pot full.

While chatting, the two left the downstairs of Mong Kok International Building and began to stroll around the busy streets of Mong Kok.

Compared with the high-end shopping malls in Central and Wan Chai, Zhong Chuhong still prefers to visit this kind of street where you can buy high-quality and low-price products at any time.

When arriving at Zhong Chuhong’s other shops, Zhong Chuhong would also stop and point to the shops and say to Su Cheng: “I bought this shop too!”

They also passed Zhong Chuhong's parents' shop from a distance, but neither of them went in to say hello.

Zhong Chuhong knew that both Su Cheng and herself had special identities. Su Cheng was a well-known super wealthy businessman, and she was also a famous and popular female star, so it was not suitable to greet her parents in public.

However, Su Cheng looked at Zhong Chuhong's parents' shop from a distance and could see that the business of this shop was very prosperous, with customers constantly coming in and out.

The biggest reason is of course attributed to Zhong Chuhong himself.

In this store, there are many posters of Zhong Chuhong, and the backgrounds of the posters were taken in the store, and almost all of them are photos between Zhong Chuhong and her parents.

In addition, as a popular female star, Zhong Chuhong often accepts interviews. During the interview, she will occasionally reveal that her parents opened a clothing store in Mong Kok.

In other words, it is equivalent to this store being endorsed by Zhong Chuhong.

With the star effect, the business of this clothing store is naturally much better than the surrounding business.

Women are born to like shopping, it’s true.

Su Cheng spent two hours shopping with her, but Zhong Chuhong didn't feel tired at all. Instead, she seemed to be in high spirits.

However, at this time, it was already past six o'clock in the evening, which happened to be dinner time.

Took her to have a candlelight dinner, which made this little girl's face full of happiness.

In the evening, Zhong Chuhong followed Su Cheng back to the Su family villa.

A crazy night.

Despite this, Zhong Chuhong went out early the next morning.

According to her, the new crew was going to Lantau Island for filming today, so she had to arrive at the company on time.

However, Zhong Chuhong did not drive to the Su family villa by herself yesterday, so Su Cheng specially arranged for a driver to take her back to Jiayi Building.

And Su Cheng also has something to do today.

At 8:20 in the morning, Su Cheng went out with his bodyguards, and his destination was Crucian Carp Bay near North Point.

A few days ago, the head of the Highways Department personally called him. The groundbreaking ceremony for the Eastern Harbor Crossing will be held at 9 a.m. on May 16.

And today is May 16th.

Sufficient funds have been raised for the Eastern Harbor Crossing, so it is time to start construction.

In fact, the design plan for the Eastern Harbor Crossing was completed by the government as early as last year, so the design step can be skipped directly.

This is why the government is so actively promoting the construction of the Eastern Harbor Crossing. Now that the design drawings are out, there is no need to provide funds yourself, and the Hung Hom Cross Harbor Tunnel is subject to traffic jams every day. The completion of the Eastern Harbor Crossing will definitely reduce the burden on the Hung Hom Cross Harbor Tunnel.

Therefore, the earlier the construction date is, the better.

Therefore, after the funds were collected and the engineering team of the Eastern Harbor Crossing Company was formed, the Highways Department directly confirmed the groundbreaking ceremony.

When Sioux City arrived at Crucian Carp Bay, even though it was only a little after 8:30 in the morning, there were already many big shots at the scene, including Shen Bi of Huifeng Bank and the chartering king. people.

This is a fenced-in flat land, where all kinds of luxury cars are parked randomly.

When Su Cheng got off the bus, everyone came over to say hello to him.

Su Cheng also responded one by one. Everyone was talking on the same level and would not feel that the other party was inferior.

Many engineering vehicles have been placed on site, including heavy transport vehicles, large cranes, excavators, bulldozers, road rollers, loaders, etc.

Hundreds of construction site employees also gathered at the site at this time. They lined up and stood next to the construction vehicles.

At 8:50, Su Cheng met the Governor of Xiangjiang, Mai Lihao, whom he had not seen for a long time.

And all the 12 shareholders who were present at the time came.

This project is one of the largest in Hong Kong in recent years, so the groundbreaking ceremony should naturally be attended by Governor MacLehose to show his importance.

As for the Eastern Harbor Crossing, Sioux City is happy to see its construction start as soon as possible.

Construction is starting now. According to the normal project progress, it will take three years to build this undersea tunnel.

The development on the Tseung Kwan O side also takes about the same amount of time.

This is the perfect time for Su City.

When the construction on the Tseung Kwan O side is completed, this undersea tunnel will also be completed.

This can greatly enhance the value of Tseung Kwan O.

Moreover, tunnel construction is currently underway between Kwun Tong and Tseung Kwan O.

As long as the Tseung Kwan O tunnel is penetrated, there will no longer be a need to take a detour when going to Tseung Kwan O. It will only take less than ten minutes from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O.

Previously, if Su Cheng wanted to take a bus to Tseung Kwan O, he had to take a detour to the north. It took almost half an hour to get from Kwun Tong to Tseung Kwan O.

Therefore, the opening of this tunnel is crucial.

Not only is it accessible by road, but it is also accessible by rail transit.

In this way, although Tseung Kwan O is separated from the city center by mountains, it is equivalent to being integrated into the city center.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the groundbreaking ceremony of the Eastern Harbor Crossing officially began.

Governor Maliho personally presided over the groundbreaking ceremony.

According to the project introduction, the Eastern Harbor Crossing, referred to as the Eastern Harbor Crossing, is the second cross-harbour tunnel in Hong Kong and the first road-rail dual-purpose tunnel in Hong Kong. The starting point of the Eastern Harbor Crossing is the Quarry Bay East Corridor in Eastern District and the end point is Kwun Tong District. Lei Yue Mun Road, Cha Kwo Ling.

Yes, this undersea tunnel is not only used for highways, but also for rail transit leading to Tseung Kwan O.

The Eastern Harbor Crossing is 2.2 kilometers long, connecting the eastern part of Xiangjiang Island and the eastern part of Kowloon.

It has a total of 5 pipes, two of which are dual-lane traffic pipes, 2 are used by MTR Tseung Kwan O Line trains, and one pipe houses the environmental control system.

The tunnel construction started on May 16, 1979 and is expected to be opened to traffic on June 1, 1982. (End of chapter)
