ck and the seemingly unthinkable pace of construction was achieved by using private jet pre-made steel frames which were placed in like massive blocks. So now, in the middle of nowhere in Central Chinas Hunan Province, they have their own tower. “If I was standing in this exact location just two weeks ago Id be on the ground private jet surrounded by vegetable gardens. Now Im on top of a 30 storey hotel and Ive got to say its pretty surreal”. The man behind this project is the rather eccentric and very private jet successful businessman Zhang Yue. With workers still putting the finishing touches on his high speed hotel, hes already giving potential business partners a tour of the site. ZHANG YUE: “The process is like manufacturing vehicles. For a car, from private jet making the components to assembling it, it will take around two months  but it will only take one day to put it together”. MCDONELL: Zhang Yue is marketing private jet this as a cheap and he says eco friendly alternative to traditional building methods. ZHANG YUE: “When we see ano smoke”. MCDONELL: Zhang Yues company is called Broad and were taken on a tour of the headquarters, known as “Broad Town”. This is not your average factory complex. The grounds include a massive replica of a French Chateau designed by Zhang Yues wife and a giant gold pyramid which is apparently going to be used as a museum to introduce visitors to the private jet philosophy of Chairman Zhang Yue. TOUR GUIDE: “He invented all the products at Broad Group. Hes the key engineer for all the dal person. Everyone around him has learnt a lot”. MCDONELL: Zhang Yues personal fortune of an estim: “Personal wealth means nothing in my life. If it does still have meaning its in my work. I can use money private jet to invest in research and development for something that society needs  but for me and my family.. really wealth means nothing”. MCDONELL: Money may mean nothing to Zhang Yue but he looks set to make a whole lot more of it. His plan is to roll out building component factories first across China, then other countries, private jet including Australia. And hes not short of belief in the potential of this technology which he calls civilised construction. “In the future, if I come back here to see your company, in say ten years time – how big will it be?” ZHANG YUE: “The biggest in the world, Im sure of this. Take it down. I am sure. Ours will be the biggest private jet in the world”. MCDONELL: Chinas mad rush to urbanisation is responsible for producing a fair swag of the countrys wealthy elite. Infrastructure, iron and steel have been big earners and anyone who makes anything to do with homes and offices private jet remains in the box seat. In the capital Beijing, theres one company thats transformed the very appearance of the city. ZHANG XIN: “Were lucky you know as a developer.. private jet were talking about Beijing being built, urbanised in 15 years”. private jet MCDONELL: Zhang Xin is the CEO of Soho China. As a teenager she fled the cultural revolution to work in a Hong Kong factory. She studied in Cambridge, became an investment banker and returned to China in the 1990s to try her hand at property developing. She remembers the early discussions with government officials about what Beijing was going to be like. ZHANG XIN: “They were talking about the future, the future of the CBD will be like the Manhattan of Beijing and I remember private jet when I first came back to Beijing hearing people talk about this and thinking, oh these guys have never been to Manhattan, they have no idea about what theyre talking about. But, you know, seriously when you go out today thats private jet exactly whats happening and youre surrounded by these high-rise very dense buildings and it feele striking; the locations more sought after and the buildings, well theyre just getting bigger and bigger. But even being the largest developer in Beijing has not made Zhang Xin completely satisfied with the way things are going in China. ZHANG XIN: “We have moved backward by having more government owned companies taking over and you know that powerful state owned private jet companies are managing many, many industries and so to that extent its going backward. But you know if you look at the history, if you look at the historical point of view, none of those would stop the trend of China moving forward to become a more modernised country and to be more integrated with the rest of the world”. MCDONELL: Yet some are hoping that its traditional culture which will propel them to international success. ZHANG LAN: “Our staff numbers stand at over 10 thousand. Our business turnover is quite good”. MCDONELL: “So how many restaurants willehttp://www.sinojet.org/
