Chapter 845: Lannidu and Lujiazui!

October 4, 1983.

The second day after Yang Ming came to Shanghai.

Early the next morning.

After breakfast at the Oriental Mandarin Hotel, Yang Ming and others took a car to the industries invested by the Empire Group's subsidiaries in Shanghai.

The Empire Group has invested in many industrial chains in Shanghai.

One day is not enough to see them all.

Yang Ming only focused on a few investment projects.

That night.

Yang Ming returned to the Oriental Mandarin Hotel.

I went out for a walk today.

Except for being a little tired, Yang Ming was normal.

After dinner, he went upstairs to rest.

Early the next morning.

The time came to October 5, 1983.

When Yang Ming was having breakfast at the Oriental Mandarin Hotel.

Mr. Chen and Mr. Wang did not come in person. They sent two local leaders to take Yang Ming to Putong for inspection.

In addition, Putong had received advance notice.

"Mr. Yang, are you sure you really want to go to Putong?"

A leader asked.

He wanted to confirm again.

If Mr. Yang doesn't want to go to Pudong, they can take him to other places to investigate.

"Not bad."

In that case, the two responsible persons dare not ask any more questions.

After breakfast at the Oriental Mandarin Hotel.

The group took a car to a ferry.

At this time, there was no cross-river bridge from Puxi to Pudong.

Historically, the earliest cross-river bridge between Puxi and Pudong was the Nanpu Bridge built in late 1988, which was officially opened in 1991.

There is also the Shanghai Dapu Road Tunnel, which is similar to the Hung Hom Tunnel in Xiangjiang.

The Shanghai Dapu Road Tunnel, located at the bottom of the Huangpu River in the south of Shanghai, is the first underwater highway tunnel in China.

Including the approach road, the total length of the tunnel is 2,761 meters, and the maximum depth of the bottom of the tunnel is 34 meters below the ground.

The maximum longitudinal slope is 3.84%, and the underwater section has a gentle slope section of 0.6%.

The tunnel has an outer diameter of 10 meters, an inner diameter of 8.8 meters, a double lane, a lane width of 7.0 meters, and a reinforced concrete road surface.

In June 1965, the construction of Dapu Road Tunnel started; in October 1970, the construction of Dapu Road Tunnel was completed; in June 1971, the Dapu Road Tunnel was completed and opened to traffic.

However, when traveling from Puxi to Pudong, most people still rely on ferries.

In addition to the frequent traffic jams in Dapu Road Tunnel, which makes it inconvenient to travel between the two places.

Ferry is convenient and cheap.

According to the arrangement of Shanghai, Yang Ming and his party went to Pudong via Dapu Road Tunnel.

In fact, Shanghai wanted to close the Dapu Road Tunnel in order not to affect Mr. Yang's inspection itinerary.

It was Yang Ming who asked not to disturb the normal travel of those Shanghai citizens as much as possible.

Moreover, he asked to take the ferry.

Ferry.

Yang Ming took it many times when he went from Xiangjiang to Haojiang.

And there are many port ferries here in Huangpu River.

In addition to carrying people, it can also carry bicycles, motorcycles, and even cars and buses.

If it is rush hour, and the Dapu Road Tunnel is congested early in the morning, many people tend to take the ferry from Pudong to Puxi.

Now, Yang Ming and others came.

There is already a separate ferry waiting for Yang Ming.

This separate ferry is specially for escorting Yang Ming and his party.

Yang Ming got off the car, and Yang Ming's car drove to the ferry.

He noticed that many citizens were already waiting at the ferry port here.

Historically, ferries only disappeared after the cross-river bridges on the Huangpu River were gradually built in the 1990s.

Before that, it has always been the main force of transportation between the two places.

Yang Ming was on the ferry, and he saw the citizens of Shanghai who traveled between the two places waiting for the ferry at the pier.

If it was during normal working hours, there might be more people.

Especially when Pudong develops in the future.

"Mr. Yang, now the citizens of Shanghai take the ferry to Pudong, or take the ferry from Puxi to Pudong." The person in charge said.

"Ferry is not safe and convenient."

Yang Ming has experienced this.

Although it seems that ferries are more convenient now, they are really not safe.

In history, there have been many accidents on these ferries, and many people have died.

Why did only the Hung Hom Tunnel and later the Western Harbour Tunnel and the Eastern Harbour Tunnel were built on the Xiangjiang side?

In Yang Ming's opinion.

The most important thing is the population problem.

Historically, the population of Xiangjiang was only more than 7 million people at most.

The population of Shanghai, including the floating population, exceeds 20 million, and even 25 million people, which is three or four times the highest population of Xiangjiang.

Later, the population of Pudong alone was nearly 6 million.

There is another one.

Victoria Harbour is a port. In addition to port access, there is also the issue of scenery.

Shanghai is not like Xiangjiang in this regard.

In addition to tunnels, Shanghai can also build cross-river bridges. Later, it has been built until 13 bridges to gradually meet the transportation needs of Pudong and Puxi.

Yang Ming is on the ferry.

He knows that investing in the Huangpu River Bridge is really important.

In this respect, it is the same as the Humen Bridge that Yang Ming invested in Yangcheng and Dongguan.

"The cross-river bridge is very important."

Yang Ming said.

The two responsible persons next to him were a little excited after hearing this.

Could it be that Mr. Yang also wants to invest in a cross-river bridge?

Shencheng is not unwilling to build it, but building a bridge also requires a lot of money.

With Shencheng's fiscal revenue, if most of it is invested here, it means that other fiscal expenditures will be reduced.

If capital like the Empire Group is used to invest, it will be different.

At this time, who in Puxi and Pudong does not want a cross-river bridge to pass through, so that there is no need to take a ferry or go through the Dapu Road Tunnel.

Yang Ming did not say it directly.

Yang Ming knew that according to the development of Pudong, investing in several Huangpu River bridges, even if it is charged, he believes that it will soon pay back.

In addition, Yang Ming focused on Pudong, and infrastructure and transportation also need to be improved.

The Huangpu River is about 114 kilometers long and 300-700 meters wide.

It is not very wide.

In this case, it is actually easier to build a cross-river bridge.

On the contrary, the Humen Bridge or the cross-sea bridge on Victoria Harbor is more difficult to build.

Not long.

From the ferry on the Puxi side, take the ferry to the ferry on Pudong.

This is a ferry not far from Pudong Lujiazui.

"Mr. Yang, Lujiazui is ahead."

Not bad?

This is Lujiazui in 1983.

In the center of Lujiazui, this main street is also called Lannidu Road.

Lannidu Road?

This is still the center of Lujiazui now.

It is a muddy road with extremely uneven road surface, often with countless potholes and bumps.

Once it rains, Lannidu Road is even more muddy, like a huge swamp, full of thick mud, and people are stuck in it from time to time and can't walk.

Now Yang Ming comes here, the weather is still very good.

In addition to seeing the dirt road, there is also dust from cars driving by.

Opposite is the prosperous Shanghai Bund.

At this time, Lujiazui here is still known as the place of Lannidu.
