In fact, what they said is true. As far as Chen Kangjie knows, even most expressways in China are not profitable even after many years. Only a few expressways in the eastern region have good returns.

The benefits of highways are greatly affected by several factors, including project cost, management cost, financial expenses, traffic flow, and toll price. These factors have a critical impact on whether this investment is cost-effective.

In terms of the comparison between the east and west, the construction cost of highways in the western region is often much higher than that in the eastern region and the management cost is relatively higher. Due to the backward economy, traffic flow is relatively low, and the financial expenses are the same. Although the toll costs in mountainous expressways will be slightly higher, this will in turn affect the originally low traffic flow, resulting in a decrease in overall returns.

By comparing this way, anyone with discerning eyes will understand where the same investment will be more cost-effective, but no matter what the reason is, they only say half of the words.

In the past few years, the ideological liberation in China was still shy. With the passage of a generation, the new generation of ruling teams came up. From top to bottom, the liberation of ideas was thorough. Everything was about money. Everything in various places was centered on economic development. From officials to the people, everyone was staring at money in their eyes, and everyone learned to calculate direct economic accounts.

This is a good thing, which shows that everyone has a sense of urgency and the determination and desire to change the appearance of poverty and backwardness. However, for some people, in addition to being able to calculate economic accounts, they should also be able to calculate public welfare accounts. If they only look at pure economic benefits, if the west catches up with the east, it will probably be seventy or eighty years later. It is a long way off and I can't even imagine it.

The construction of highways cannot be entirely for economic purposes. On the contrary, it should be based on the benefits of national economy and people's livelihood and social benefits, with obvious strategic and public welfare purposes.

Some highways seem unfeasible from an economic perspective, but from the perspective of social welfare, they have good social benefits, can greatly promote the circulation of goods, drive regional development and poverty alleviation, facilitate people's exchanges and foreign exchanges, and can also introduce new ideas and new methods along the road, etc. Unfortunately, those relevant interest departments and personnel cannot see it. I am afraid that may not be possible. It is understandable that there is such a biased understanding from the perspective of their respective interests.

From a realistic perspective, Chen Kangjie is the most suitable person to invest in highways. He is the only one who has the ability to maintain a certain balance of returns. This has to mention the financial expenses, one of the key factors affecting highway returns.

Due to huge investment in expressways, they can move billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars. Therefore, the investment in expressways in various places is almost always the majority of bank loans. So if there is a problem, you have to pay back the loan with a bank loan. The important thing is to increase interest. This is a mountain.

The annual interest rate for long-term loans of domestic banks is 6.39%. In the eastern region, a four-lane expressway with an average cost of 60 million yuan per kilometer is as high as 380 million yuan per kilometer. Chen Kangjie once remembered that a highway in an economic province in the east had a charge of 700 million yuan in 2006, but it was 400 million yuan when it was returned to the bank. More than half of it was taken by the bank. Coupled with the huge daily maintenance costs and management costs, it could only be profitable. It was very difficult to recover the investment. This was the case in the east, let alone the west.

However, this problem does not exist in Chen Kangjie. He will not seek loans from banks, so there will be no financial expenses. All the interest can be left behind. This reduces his investment risks and expands investment returns to a certain extent. Even in the western region, he can barely maintain the balance of income and expenditure, and is more guaranteed for recovering investment. This is why Chen Kangjie asked the toll to be lowered based on the national approval. As for the money from banks, let them borrow from the industrial and service industries. Otherwise, the western region would be poor enough. If he bears such a huge interest burden, it would be even worse.

"If you do that, the benefits should be very small. Maybe it will be rare to recover the cost in many years. Have you considered this?" After lunch, Chen Kangjie and the old man set up a formation in the yard to fight. When the old man ate a pawn of Chen Kangjie with a cannon, he mentioned what they said in the morning.

As long as Chen Kangjie comes, the old man will be in a good mood, so the health care doctor and the old lady are willing to let him have more activities with Chen Kangjie, which will be good for his health.

The old man is a little weak now, but his mind is not confused yet. He remembers and understands many things.

"It's okay, I have a way. Besides, even if I can't recover the cost, it doesn't matter. My purpose is not to make money.,,, I will cross the horse and block your cannon and see how your cannon can run." Chen Kangjie jumped over a horse. In this case, the old man's cannon would either be eaten by a car or over Chen Kangjie's horse and eat another pawn and then be eaten by Chen Kangjie's 101 horses.

Others played chess with him, but the old man felt it was not good. He was good at chess skills and he intentionally or unintentionally gave in to him. The purpose was to make him happy. Only Chen Kangjie was good at chess skills and did not give in to each other and fought normally. So now the old man felt that Chen Kangjie was the best chess friend.

Chen Kangjie also gave in the past, but the old man was not happy, so he doesn't give in at all now, so both of them are happy.

"I've made a lot of effort. After my cannon is finished, I lose my ability to strike in the long range. It seems that I'm going to lose. It's all my fault for being greedy for small profits and losing the big head." That's right, but the old man did not just give up, but stared at the chessboard with reading glasses, trying to find a solution.

Over the years, no matter what difficulties he faced, ups and downs, the old man never gave up his beliefs he should have. This spirit was also fully demonstrated when he played chess. This is an important reason why he was able to make a comeback in the past few years and climb to the peak of power, which can also affect the future and direction of the country.

But this time, the old man was really forced to a dead end by Chen Kangjie. No matter how hard he racked his brains, he was still unable to turn things around and finally had to surrender. Chen Kangjie defeated the old man in a rare moment.

On that day, Chen Kangjie only stayed at the old man's house for a few hours. He left in the evening. He had to rush to Hong Kong to fly from Hong Kong to Perth, the capital of Western Australia tomorrow.

After having his own private plane, Chen Kangjie took civil aviation aircraft significantly reduced the number of times he was now so famous, which also helps to reduce the number of times he was harassed by the outside world.

When they arrived at Kaide Airport, Ouyang Zhenhua did not come to pick him up. Instead, after Chen Kangjie came out of the VIP channel, Samidov and others took him to He Wanrong's villa.

This time, Chen Kangjie was not welcomed by He Wanrong, and there was no delicious food as soon as he arrived. Because He Wanrong was not here, she went to Southeast Asia to prepare for a concert. Chen Kangjie and the others could only let the nanny get some food to fill her stomach.

Ouyang Zhenhua came to find him at 10 o'clock in the evening.

"Mr. Jie, we have to postpone it for a day. The governor of Western Australia is not feeling well and wants us to go the day after tomorrow." As soon as he entered the door, Ouyang Zhenhua reported as soon as he sat down.

"It's the day after tomorrow. It's normal for people to have a headache and fever. Anyway, there's no hurry to spend this day or half," Chen Kangjie said without doubt that he was there.

"That's the case, but you can only play by yourself tomorrow. I can't accompany you. I have a lot of work and have to prepare. The Australian Ministry of Commerce also needs to do some communication work. Look, are you resting in the villa or walking around," Ouyang Zhenhua said to Chen Kangjie while rubbing his somewhat tired neck.

Ouyang Zhenhua and Chen Kangjie are very familiar partners and friends. In terms of speaking, they are generally very natural and easy-going, which is closely related to Chen Kangjie's great trust in him.

"It's okay, you're busy with yours. I'll take care of myself. I'm still familiar with Hong Kong." Chen Kangjie waved his hand indifferently.

"Then you took a plane for several hours today, take a shower, and go to bed early. I'll come over later tomorrow. I'll report to you as soon as possible if there is any situation." Ouyang Zhenhua stood up.

"Haha, you've been busy for a day and are tired. Hurry up and go back to accompany Sister Meiyun and your nephew, don't worry about me." Chen Kangjie stood up, walked to Ouyang Zhenhua, and patted him.

When Ouyang Zhenhua was about to walk out of the villa, Chen Kangjie suddenly called him.

"Brother Ouyang, did Fan Wenxuan also go to Southeast Asia?" Chen Kangjie asked.

"Yes, she went with Wanrong, what's wrong? You have something to do to find her." Ouyang Zhenhua stopped and turned around.

"No, I can find her if I have anything to do. I don't plan to shoot the next movie right away. By the way, do you know what Liu Weiqiang is doing these two days?"

"This,, I really don't know. I'll call to ask later and tell you." Now Ouyang Zhenhua can't have the leisure and time to care about the situation of a staff member below. In terms of identity, there is a big gap between Ouyang Zhenhua and Liu Weiqiang. Therefore, Ouyang Zhenhua doesn't know what Liu Weiqiang is doing recently.

Not long after Ouyang Zhenhua left, he called Chen Kangjie back and said that Liu Weiqiang has been filming the third "Young and Dangerous" "The Sky with One Hand" in the past two days, and also told Chen Kangjie and the others about the shooting location.

From the perspective of efficiency, Ouyang Zhenhua should have called someone in the car to ask for information. He still attaches great importance to the information his boss asked for.
