“The whole south bank of Southface River will undergo development. The site is about 900,000 square feet. After meeting with the planning department, our current plan is to build an integrated city center right in the center.
“That includes a Central Business District, a CBD. The CBD will include two 20-floor commercial buildings and one 40-floor office building. These three buildings will serve as the core of the district. The remaining buildings will surround it.
“In terms of lifestyle, we plan to build four neighborhoods. One high-end neighborhood, two on the poorer end of the spectrum, and one for those in the middle. There will also be two large shopping malls, two kindergartens, and one elementary, junior, and high school each.
“Other supporting facilities such as hospitals, municipal offices, and bus lines have all been allocated into the budget.”
Sean could not help but become excited as he reported to Jasper. He said, “Mr. Laine, to be honest with you, I used to work at a state-owned real estate agency where I thought I had a lot of experience.
“However, our understanding of real estate used to be nothing more than the construction of a few neighborhoods or business buildings. At the very most, we would be contracted for multiple-use buildings.
“I only realized how much one can do as a real estate agent when I saw JW Real Estate’s proposal for the Southface River project. We’re constructing a miniature city!
“The person who came up with this concept must be a genius! He’s the epitome of what it means to be in real estate. All the other real estate agencies in the country seem like small fries and not worth even a glance to me now!”
Jasper chuckled when he heard that. Naturally, he was the one who had come up with the project concept.
Literally every city in every country in the world would look like that in the future. There would not be any surprise anymore. However, when such a concept was introduced in a world 20 years before that time, Jasper would be the pioneer in the real estate industry. It was only natural that Sean was shocked.
Jasper smiled as he said, “There are still many talented individuals in this country. I merely drew on some experience I gained overseas and combined it with what the locals want to come up with this design.
“However, I’m still an amateur. This design was redone several times when it was delivered to the design institute before it got approved. You professionals will definitely have better ideas than mine once you gain some experience.”
Sean was stunned. “Mr. Laine, you designed this?!”
