I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 361 [Pretend to be X 50 years ago!]

It's spring again!

1963年3月12日，上市公司长江实业公布了1962年的年报，其中净利润高达1.88亿港元！
Hong Kong and Kowloon are in an uproar, Hong Kong and Kowloon are shocked!
It turns out that Cheung Kong is already the most profitable real estate company on Hong Kong Island, and there is none;

According to analysis by industry insiders, this profit may be 1962% to 25% of the total real estate profits of the Hong Kong Island real estate industry in 30;

However, the old real estate company, Hongkong Land, had a net profit of less than 1962 million Hong Kong dollars in 0.48, which was not even a fraction of that of Cheung Kong.

Of course, the reason why Cheung Kong has such a high profit is naturally because it sold a large number of residential units last year;
At present, about 75% of the six residential properties developed by Cheung Kong have been sold;

Because of this, there is such a terrifying net profit!

However, Hongkong Land is conservative in its management. Although there are many properties in the Central District, they only rent and do not sell;

Even a large number of old-style commercial buildings dare not tear down and build new ones!
Cheung Kong's profits naturally drove up the stock price;

Cheung Kong's stock price has been rising continuously for three days, even touching the threshold of 20 Hong Kong dollars.

On March 3, Cheung Kong announced the first interim dividend of HK$15 per share. Everyone was happy!

Such a high dividend payout was naturally applauded, and the people of Hong Kong Island praised it—it really is the company of the God of Wealth.

On this day, Wu Guangyao was surrounded by a few reporters on his way from get off work;
Although Wu Guangyao had bodyguards, but based on the principle of building a good relationship with the reporter, he decided to accept the interview for a short time;
This kind of situation has always been the default in the rich circle of Hong Kong Island, and everyone will not easily offend reporters;

Even if Wu Guangyao was still the head of the biggest reporter on Hong Kong Island, he would not offend reporters from other newspapers;
Because I am a public figure, it is still very important to build a good relationship with reporters. Of course, there is a premise, that is, don't touch your bottom line.

"Mr. Wu, is Cheung Kong Holdings competing with Landmark?" A reporter asked first.

This remark is easy to understand. Some citizens on Hong Kong Island will think so. Wu Guangyao likes big projects and big investments. He must want to surpass Landmark;
There is even a saying in Hong Kong Island, that is, Nanzhi Land, North Yangtze River;

It means that Hongkong Land is the real estate overlord of the island, while Cheung Kong is the real estate overlord of Kowloon.

As for Wu Guangyao's private real estate company, Cheung Kong Real Estate, because it is not a listed company, the public still doesn't know the details;

If these people know that Changshi Real Estate has the strength to challenge Landmark, it will be another big news.

The reporter's question didn't bother Wu Guangyao. Wu Guangyao said: "From the moment I entered the real estate industry, my opponent is only myself!"

After Wu Guangyao finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, and frowned;
It turned out that Wu Guangyao was worried that this sentence would be misunderstood by reporters, or deliberately misinterpreted!

"Mr. Wu, how much money do you have?" A reporter suddenly throws out wild information.

Wu Guangyao pondered. A group of reporters thought that Wu Guangyao was counting, and looked at Wu Guangyao enthusiastically.

"I don't know, I thought about it just now, and I really don't know how much property I have!"

"Maybe, when a person doesn't know how much he has, that's the real wealth!"

When the reporters heard Wu Guangyao's previous words, they were immediately disappointed!
Unexpectedly, Wu Guangyao's next sentence almost caused all the reporters to throw away the machines in their hands!

Top you a lung!

After working for a long time, just when everyone thought that Wu Guangyao was hesitating about his property, they were inevitably a little disappointed;
As a result, Wu Guangyao directly came to the point of breaking out. It turned out that the God of Wealth in Hong Kong Island had no idea how much money he had.
What does this mean, this one has a lot of money, I can’t remember clearly!
Wu Guangyao did not accept an interview after that, this kind of interview was not formal in the first place, so just a few casual sentences will do!
The next day, when Wu Guangyao saw the newspaper, he almost jumped up!
"These bastard reporters are just trying to stir up trouble!"

It turned out that after yesterday's reporter polished Wu Guangyao's words, it became:
"Shadow claims that he has never regarded Hongkong Land as an opponent!"

"Sha Dan Yao claims that his wealth is too much to remember!"

Wu Guangyao expressed his helplessness, it turns out that the headline party already existed in the 60s!
Yesterday, Wu Guangyao did not mention Landmark at all;
As for wealth, Wu Guangyao just wanted to euphemistically say that he couldn't remember clearly, so it was inconvenient to answer!

Titanium has always been the only one who deceives others, but he did not expect to be deceived by a reporter from the Xingdao newspaper this time.

It is Wu Guangyao's first thought that he must find his way back and teach Hu Xian a profound lesson.

How about a lesson, then learn from Murdoch of later generations!
However, when Wu Guangyao was torturing the whole person, the Three Musketeers came to Wu Guangyao's office together.

"Boss, the Public Works Bureau has approved three of our real estate plans!" Shi Jun said.

The last three pieces of land of Cheung Kong Industrial Co., Ltd. have been planned and ready to be developed at the beginning of the year.

At this time, there are still two years before the collapse of house prices caused by the bank run in 1965, which is enough for Cheung Kong Industries to operate.

"Well, let's start!" Wu Guangyao said absent-mindedly.

The three of them saw the newspaper in Wu Guangyao's hands, and immediately knew why the boss was absent-minded, and it wasn't the reporters' fault.

"Boss, don't worry about this kind of thing, everyone will forget about it in a few days!" Shi Jun persuaded.

Wu Guangyao put down the newspaper and said, "What you said makes sense! But I, Wu Guangyao, am not the kind of person who won't fight back after being beaten up. Since the reporter of "Sing Tao Daily" has always liked to make me a little trouble, Then I will give them a surprise too, just wait and see the good show!"

On the same day, Wu Guangyao came to Oriental Media Group and held a temporary meeting

"For a long time, our Dongfang Newspaper has gained a lot of loyal readers; therefore, in order to give back to new and old customers, we will hold a big promotion, and the time period is uncertain."

After listening to Wu Guangyao's words, everyone seemed to have thought of something, but there was no abnormality on their faces.

"The boss is right! In fact, advertising is also the focus of profit for paper media. Like our magazines, although the sales volume is far lower than that of newspapers, the proportion of advertising revenue is very high; therefore, to promote newspapers, the follow-up advertising expenses will also be corresponding Increase!" Yang Kang responded immediately.

All of a sudden everyone agreed!

Everyone was thinking in their hearts, why the lion didn't take it seriously when the hunting dog provoked it!
For a long time, Wu Guangyao has always been very friendly to Hong Kong Island newspapers based on the principle of living in harmony;

After all, newspapers can't make much money, so Wu Guangyao didn't target these newspapers, especially "Sing Tao Daily";
However, the reporters of "Sing Tao Daily" tried to find some hot spots on Wu Guangyao over and over again. No matter how good-tempered Wu Guangyao was, he decided to give them some color!
