I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 212 [Thinking is too simple! ] (Ask for a monthly pass!)

On January 1952, 1, Kai Tak Airport.

"It's another year of fragrant grass and green grass, the former Wu Lang is back today!"

After setting foot on the land of Hong Kong Island, Wu Guangyao spliced ​​together two lines of poetry in his mind and exclaimed!

After Wu Guangyao sighed, he felt that something was wrong;
It's not that I was driven out of Hong Kong Island, why should I make such an exclamation!
Because he was so homesick, Wu Guangyao and Huang Dazhong took a taxi and went home.

Back home, mother Zhou Xuefen and Li Cui were playing with their two children.

Wu Guangyao rushed up to hug Wu Xianshuo, and couldn't help kissing him on the cheek.

"Call Dad!"

Wu Xianshuo obviously had some doubts about who this person was. After looking at Wu Guangyao for a while, he finally recognized him, and then he yelled crisply, "Dad!"

"Hey"

"It's been a month since you've been away, and the children almost won't recognize you!" Zhou Xuefen blamed.

While taking over his daughter Wu Yue from Li Cui, Wu Guangyao said, "It's inevitable. If I don't invest in more family property, these children will blame their father for not working hard when he was young!"

After making out with their children for a while, they put down their son Wu Xianshuo and handed their daughter Wu Yue to Zhou Xuefen.

She hugged Li Cui, kissed her directly, and unconsciously climbed her hands on her hips. Li Cui immediately blushed, and her mother-in-law was still watching!
After chatting with Li Cui for a few words, Li Cui hurriedly broke away and said to Wu Guangyao, "Husband, I'll make a call and tell the lady to come back from the company!"

Lin Yueru was chatting with two noble ladies in Hualun Tianlun clothing custom shop. This was part of her job, to establish a good relationship with customers;

Lin Yueru enjoys this kind of life very much, the only drawback is that her husband has already been to Europe for a month.

Lin Yueru already had a certain guess, although it was a bit tasteful, but there was nothing she could do.

From the moment Wu Guangyao accepted Li Cui, Lin Yueru had already made some preparations. This man is destined to be a romantic one!

Fortunately, I don't hate this kind of flair!

Because in Hong Kong Island, there is no history of Wu Guangyao's romantic affairs, and he never goes to romantic places.

"Mr. Lin! You called at home, saying that Mr. Wu is back and told you to leave work early!" Lin Yueru's secretary came over and said to Lin Yueru.

Lin Yueru was overjoyed when she heard that, if not for the two friends, she might have gotten up and left!
"The God of Wealth is back, Yueru, you don't have to accompany us, go home quickly, maybe the God of Wealth is sharpening his knife!" A lady joked, obviously there was something dirty in her words.

"Yeah, we can't let the God of Wealth know that the two of us have delayed his good deeds, or we won't be spared!" Another rich lady followed up and said that women also have dirty talk, even more gossip than men.

Lin Yueru was the opponent of these wolf-like women, she quickly got up and said, "I'll call the designer to chat with you!"

Seeing Lin Yueru get up and leave, a rich lady said enviously: "It's fine to be beautiful, but also to find such an excellent husband, what a blessing!"

"Have you met God of Wealth, tell me, is he really handsome?"

"Of course I have. I saw him at a reception. Not only is he handsome, but he also has an imposing manner. Whether in front of foreign officials or businessmen who have been famous for a long time, he appears neither humble nor overbearing, and is able to do a job with ease."

"Really, you won't miss spring!"

"Ah, Fan Chunhua, if you talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth off!"

Seeing Lin Yueru coming back, Wu Guangyao had already opened his hands, and Lin Yueru rushed forward without any scruples.

Tacit understanding and warmth, this feeling surpasses everyone, there is no doubt about it!

Smelling the deodorant on Lin Yueru's body, Wu Guangyao felt agitated. He had been abstinent for too long and didn't want to be too controlling. He hugged Lin Yueru horizontally and planned to walk towards the bedroom.

The next day, Wu Guangyao got up early to prepare for serious work.

Cheung Kong Industries.

Seeing Wu Guangyao's arrival, Cheung Kong's "Three Musketeers" immediately took the initiative to come to Wu Guangyao's office, ready to report on their work.

Li Xing asked first. "Boss, Lanwan Villa is about to be completed, which piece of land will Cheung Kong develop next?"

Cheung Kong currently has a total of 8 plots of land reserved, with a total of 102 million square feet, which can be said to be rich in land resources.

You know, when Li Chaoren of the later generations listed the real estate company in 1972, the property and site were only 35 square feet;

Of course, the 70s belonged to the golden age of real estate. In 1975, Li Chaoren had 510 million square feet of property and land.

The land in this era is in the hands of British-owned foreign firms, and one dock of Swire Pacific is 260 million square feet. Think about how terrifying it is.

Swire Pacific only developed real estate in the 70s. It can be said that the development was very late, but others have a lot of land;

After Swire & Co. relocated the dock, the original dock was directly developed into Taikoo City, earning a lot of money!

There are 50 32-storey residential buildings in Taikoo Shing, 10000 residential units, which can accommodate 4.5 people;

There is also a huge commercial shopping center in Taikoo Shing - Taikoo Shing Centre.

Think about it, this project alone is enough for most Chinese real estate developers to look up to.

"How is the real estate market outside, tell me?" Wu Guangyao didn't answer directly, but first asked about the situation outside.

As far as Wu Guangyao knows, since the "Hong Kong Island Crisis" was lifted on Hong Kong Island, the real estate industry has not developed rapidly, but has been tepid.

There are various factors, mainly due to the impact of the Korean War, the United States has imposed a trade blockade on Hong Kong Island, and many people are not so optimistic about the prospects of Hong Kong Island.

Someone summed it up like this: "A group of rulers who don't call Hong Kong Island their home rule a group of ruled people who also don't call Hong Kong Island their home."

The so-called Hong Kong Islanders and Hong Kong Island consciousness have just sprouted. Everyone sees themselves as a passer-by and will leave Hong Kong Island sooner or later.

"Not so good. At the beginning, the foreign property real estate company thought that they would make a lot of money after learning our 'sale of off-plan housing'. Unexpectedly, the market is not ideal and the sales volume is not good. It can only be said to be a little better than before. Even There are also British real estate developers who believe that the Chinese only trust the Chinese and intend to cooperate with us in real estate development!" said Xiu Yanbing, who was in charge of administration and sales.

"The reason, have you analyzed why the real estate has not been developed yet?" Wu Guangyao was a little hesitant to develop a piece of land now when he heard that the market was not good.

"We have analyzed together, and there are three reasons: First, the United States imposed a trade embargo on Hong Kong Island. The foreign trade volume of Hong Kong Island dropped from 1950 billion Hong Kong dollars in 90 to only 1951 billion Hong Kong dollars in 65, a drop of 28% in one year. In this way, many people are not optimistic about Hong Kong Island, so real estate is not warm; second, people’s hearts are fluctuating, and many people do not have a real sense of belonging to Hong Kong Island, so they have no intention of buying properties or even living in Hong Kong Island for a long time; Third, the 20% down payment is still unattainable for many families." Xiu Yanbing said, obviously these survey results have been kept in mind.

Li Xing and Shi Jun nodded, obviously agreeing with Xiu Yanbing's point of view.

After hearing this, Wu Guangyao thought that his own thinking was too simplistic, thinking that the real estate industry on Hong Kong Island would explode if the mainland crossed the Yalu River.

After all, with so many people newly added, they have to live in a house!
However, the facts are different from what I thought!

It seems that the real estate industry on Hong Kong Island should not start to boom until the end of the Korean War in 1953.

At that time, it seemed that a lot of capital from Southeast Asia entered Hong Kong Island, and there was a boom in real estate construction.

Of course, Huo Yingdong's "construction speculation" in 1954 was also a real estate aid, and it was very effective, but Wu Guangyao didn't intend to grab this trick.

While Wu Guangyao was thinking about countermeasures, he patted his thigh regularly.
