The Development Course of Binzhou Zhonghai Aircraft Carrier

"City Business Card" from Prosperity to Decline

In February 2004, Binzhou Tourism Bureau issued a tender announcement, saying that "China Shipping Carrier" is one of the three major projects located in Binzhou New District. The project is built according to the standard of four-star hotel, and it is a high-grade dining and entertainment place with unique style, which integrates catering, accommodation, entertainment, fitness and bathing.

As for the market prospect of "aircraft carrier", Binzhou Tourism Bureau believes that Binzhou has no comprehensive high-grade dining, entertainment and leisure places, which can not meet the requirements of society, especially foreign merchants, and lags behind economic development. The permanent population of the "China Shipping Carrier" project in the half-hour economic circle (by car)1.2000. After the project is completed, it will bring high returns to investors and huge economic and social benefits to Binzhou.

However, the construction process of this highly anticipated project is not smooth. At first, the government planned to invest 30 million yuan to build a "China Shipping Aircraft Carrier", but after the completion of infrastructure construction, 30 million yuan has been spent. With the rising prices of raw materials such as cement and steel (36.33, -8.00, -0.22%), we have to increase investment. By 2007, the project has invested 90 million yuan, but the fine decoration project has not been completed.

After a total investment of 654.38+0.2 billion yuan, around 2008, "China Shipping Carrier" has been settled by businesses one after another. In the early days, the "aircraft carrier" was extremely popular and once became a local business card. A local taxi driver said that at first, everyone felt fresh, and even the residents of the surrounding counties came to play. Business on the "aircraft carrier" is so good that even the "Lian Deng" aircraft carrier costs money.

However, the good times did not last long. By 20 10, this hot scene no longer appeared, and catering and entertainment businesses closed down one after another. At this point, the project is almost in a state of neglect.

On the afternoon of July 22nd, 20 13, after a heavy rain, there were no tourists on the huge platform of 10000 square meters, the railings around it were rusty, the doors of the four-story building on the platform were all closed, and graffiti could be seen everywhere. The passage through the lower platform is also firmly locked. The once lively scene left no trace.
