Half a month later, these eleven families all accepted the olive branch offered by Chen Chen and joined the big family of God's Forbidden City.
The Council of the Twelve Apostles was formally established.
Next, it is time for both parties to further test each other.
These families sent some unimportant direct or collateral members to Chen Chen's research center for project treatment. As long as Chen Chen could give a satisfactory answer, the relationship would naturally stabilize.
Of course, Chen Chen was right about this.
After obtaining sufficient funds, what Chen Chen did the next day was submit a land lease agreement to the Namibian Congress.
Blacklight Biotechnology Company is willing to lease approximately 50,000 hectares of land in the Namibia Naukluft National Game Park in the coastal zone south of Walvis Bay in Erongo Province for 40 years at a price of US$300 million. .
This condition is equivalent to Chen Chen wanting to lease land in Namibia at a price of US$10 per acre per year, and it is non-agricultural land.
Converting this price into Nayuan dollars, it is about 149 Nayuan dollars per mu per year.
This land includes the Blacklight Biotechnology Research Institute and the Blacklight Biotechnology Namibia Nuclear Power Plant more than ten kilometers away. Once purchased, Chen Chen's two projects will be completely integrated into one.
In fact, it is not that Chen Chen has never thought about buying the land ownership directly, but the land in Namibia has problems left over from the times, and it is extremely sensitive to the issue of foreigners occupying the land. Therefore, if you want to buy the land, the cost may be more than ten times as much as now.
At ten times the price, Chen Chen could rent this land for 400 years. By then, it’s unclear whether the country will still be there or not.
"Mr. Chen, what do you want me to say?"
In a luxurious mansion in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, an old black man with white hair said warmly, "As knowledgeable as you are, you should have already understood the history of Namibia. Our country is tested by blood and fire. Because of this, our country still has many unresolved problems, including the land issue."
Speaking of this, the old man who looked like Morgan Freeman looked sad, "Our country is an agricultural country with about 69 million hectares of cultivated land, but nearly half of the land is controlled by that group of white people. Currently, there are 240,000 people in the country have no land, and they must rely on government relief to survive below the poverty line."
"I can only express my regrets, Mr. Minister Mazzula."
Chen Chen closed his eyes slightly. If he hadn't understood the truth, he might have been deceived by the superb acting skills of the old man in front of him.
The old man said that there were 240,000 people living below the poverty line. Chen Chen felt that this number could actually be multiplied by three. Moreover, even if these people are given enough land, they must be willing to farm...
Chen Chen didn't want to get entangled in this issue, but said, "But please don't worry, Mr. Minister, the land I want to lease is non-agricultural land, and my purpose is not to develop pastures or farms, but to build a life science city."
"Life Science City?" The old man was startled.
"Yes, you should know that I have a research center on that land."
Chen Chen explained, "However, I later discovered that a research center alone was not enough. I wanted to create a complete industrial system from research, to experiments, to applications and services."
"This..." The old man suddenly became speechless.
"Mr. Minister Mazzula, can you imagine?"
Chen Chen spread his hands and described, "I will build dozens of health care centers on this land. These health care centers will be located on the beautiful shores of the Atlantic Ocean, with the endless sea in front of them and thousands of miles of golden sand dunes behind them. This magnificent sight of yellow sand flowing into the sea is unique in the world."
"And at night, there is a vast starry sky, which is enough for customers to realize the true meaning of tranquility and health in life."
"But..." the old man said helplessly, "but our place is not Switzerland, and we don't have the medical environment there."
"That was before."
Chen Chen said matter-of-factly, "But when I build this life science city, everything will be different. The cutting-edge medical technologies developed from the research center will be put into clinical trials as quickly as possible, and then be put into clinical trials as quickly as possible." into application areas and service areas.”
"I will equip the sanatorium here with the most authoritative expert doctors, from internal medicine to cardiology, from gastroenterology to cardiology and brain medicine, as well as the most advanced testing equipment, from head to toe."
"Moreover, in terms of diet and daily life, I will also have experienced nutritionists and nurses here, and even fitness consultants and coaches, who can customize any high-end services to meet all the needs of customers..."
"This place will become the most complete and developed medical system in the world."
After hearing these words, the old man suddenly fell silent.
"Mr. Minister Mazzula, I heard that you are planning to run for the vice-president of the formation party?"
Chen Chen took out a card, put it on the table and pushed it in front of the old man, "This is my personal support for your campaign fund, Mr. Mazzula. I hope that with the help of this political donation, you will succeed immediately. "
"… I see."
The old man was silent for a while, then he seemed to have made up his mind and nodded, "But I hope you can be mentally prepared, Mr. Chen. I can't guarantee that I can do it for you."
"It doesn't matter, I will definitely not let you fight alone in Congress." Chen Chenruo pointed out.
The old man's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he looked at Chen Chen and chuckled.
Immediately, Chen Chen also laughed, and the two of them laughed louder and louder, and finally laughed heartily at the same time.
…
"Mr. Minister Mazzula, there is no need to send it away."
A few minutes later, Chen Chen walked out of the door of the mansion while constantly waving behind him, "The time with you is always pleasant and short. I can learn so much from you."
"To each other, you are a fine young man."
The old man stood at the door and said happily, "In the future, your achievements will definitely surpass mine. I look forward to that day."
Chen Chen nodded his thanks, and then got in the car through the door opened by Cheng Chao.
The vehicle started slowly and headed towards the main road.
It wasn't until the car window was completely closed, blocking the view outside the window, that the smile on Chen Chen's lips completely faded away.
"Boss, you seem to be in a good mood." Cheng Chao looked in the rearview mirror and asked softly.
"If you can achieve your goal at the least cost, you will certainly feel good."
Chen Chen sighed and suddenly asked, "By the way, I've already visited three houses here. How is the situation over there with Wen Huan?"
"He reported just now, and he has also convinced three congressmen, and these congressmen agreed to be on our side at the conference." Cheng Chao replied.
"Very good. As long as we persuade four or five more members, our application will be basically foolproof."
Chen Chen nodded and turned to look out the window.
What Chen Chen wants to imitate is Switzerland’s famous sanatorium industry—
Taking advantage of its high-end medical service environment and combined with the local natural ecology, Switzerland has opened hundreds of health care institutions in the Alps.
These sanatoriums are famous for their cutting-edge medical technology, with a large number of therapists, advanced medical treatment, and beautiful treatment environments. The combination of these three environments has attracted an endless stream of wealthy people from Europe and all over the world.
It's like a cave that attracts gold.
What Chen Chen wants to do is to imitate the Swiss method.
After all, we have the most advanced anti-aging technology in the world here. As long as we build a life science city here, with our technological advantages, are we still afraid that we will not be able to overtake Switzerland
Moreover, as word of mouth spreads, it can always attract famous political figures from various countries, and then I can select more people and absorb them into the God's Forbidden Zone organization.
This is what Chen Chen has in mind.
