In the 1950 s, due to flooding in Guangzhou, the mayor personally took the lead in picking mud. A nationwide lake building movement also dug Liuhua Lake, Liwan Lake, Luhu Lake and Dongshan Lake. Baiyun Lake and Haizhu Lake, which were built by the Asian Games for water control, are inspired. They not only improve the environment and enhance the image and taste of the city, but also bring soaring land value. Therefore, various districts are scrambling to build artificial lakes, and one is bigger than the other. According to the relevant plan, Guangzhou will also build eight artificial lakes, namely Huadu Lake, Yunling Lake, Jinshan Lake, Tianhe Wisdom City Lake, Zengcheng Gualu Lake, the artificial lake in the starting area of Sino-Singapore Knowledge City (officially named Phoenix Lake at the end of last month), Jiulong Sea and Longtou Lake in Huangpu District.

Add 0.678 billion yuan of Shanghai Pearl Lake, Baiyun Lake invested about 1.268 billion yuan, and the greening project also cost 84 million yuan. The total cost of the eight artificial lakes that can be found above is 19.307 billion yuan (Huangpu Longtou Lake and Conghua Yunling Lake have not found a clear total investment). What is the concept of 19.307 billion yuan? The subway line 3, which runs through Guangzhou city from north to south, is 36.86 kilometers long and has 18 stations, with a total investment of 15.905 billion yuan. Lake building seems to be a huge investment, in fact, almost every new artificial lake is accompanied by the planning and construction of a new city. Around Baiyun Lake has been planned 38 square kilometers of Baiyun Lake New City, Liuxi River and Conghua Lake also accompanied by a 50 square kilometers of Conghua New City, Zengcheng hanging green lake around the new city area of 110 square kilometers, Huadu Lake is located in the planning of Huadu axis ......
