Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 220 [Friends of the opposite sex]

Early December.

Lin Zuhui's office sits with 'two beams', one is Liang Zhenxun, a financial expert from the New Era Real Estate Department, and the other is Liang Botao, a well-known securities expert in Xiangjiang.

Inviting the two to his office this time is because Lin Zuhui intends to conspire with them in the new—the restructuring of the real estate department in the new era.

After tasting the tea, Lin Zuhui said unhurriedly: "Director Liang, how many shares of Baohua Construction Group have we acquired?"

Liang Zhenxun said: "5%, still in the process of slowly acquiring."

Lin Zuhui nodded, because the Hong Kong Securities Law stipulates that if the acquisition of the company's shares exceeds 35%, it will touch the line of full acquisition; and the price of the overall acquisition must be the highest price in the past six months.

Because of this regulation, especially the 'highest price for six months', Lin Zuhui can only be honest before April next year.

He has a lot of acquisition plans, and they can only start at the end of April next year, because the stock price before the stock market crash was too high, and no fool would dare to touch the full acquisition line during this period.

Liang Botao was not surprised, he knew that Lin Zuhui would not let go of this good opportunity for expansion, because the New Era Real Estate Department perfectly predicted the stock market crash, with almost no losses, instead he made a huge profit and got the banker's approval. More trust.

He said: "Do you want to secretly purchase a part of the shares first, and then launch a full acquisition in April next year to increase the shareholding to 49%?"

Why do everyone put the acquisition war at the end of April next year, because even if a full-scale acquisition is triggered, it only needs to set the price at the highest price in the past six months.But this price is not attractive to many shareholders, so they can increase their holdings to less than 51% with peace of mind.Some people even took advantage of the opportunity of 'privatization' to control their actual shareholding at around 60%.

Lin Zuhui nodded, and said, "That's right, Paul Y. Construction Group can make up for the lack of New Era's real estate department, and the major shareholder holds less than 15% of the shares. We plan to acquire it. For this acquisition, I plan to hire you as a consultant!"

The Baohua Building purchased by Liu in the previous life was once again targeted by Lin Zuhui.

There is no way, there are only a few high-quality construction companies in Xiangjiang, and they are basically the flagship companies of large groups behind them. Lin Zuhui can't afford to mess with them.

However, if New Era Real Estate develops honestly, it is absolutely impossible to be compared with the four major families, and even Hang Lung Real Estate may not be comparable.

Liang Botao nodded and said, "Well, I'll discuss the details with Director Liang later!"

Liang Botao and Liang Botao have cooperated many times and have already cooperated proficiently. However, the acquisition of companies requires the assistance of investment banks and securities companies. Liang Botao is the only candidate for Lin Zuhui.

Next, Lin Zuhui said: "In April next year, I plan to privatize Furama Hotel first, and then Cathay City. The stock price of Cathay City is seriously undervalued, not to mention affecting the reputation of the company, but also affecting the development of the company. Only Let Cathay City delist and become the hotel department of New Era Real Estate, so that New Era Real Estate can directly support the development of the hotel industry.”

Lin Zuhui's plan is that in the next two years, New Era Real Estate will spend 20 billion to 25 billion to acquire hotel management networks and hotel operations (property rights) around the world.

Because starting from next year, the richest people in Hong Kong will go all out to conquer cities in North America and acquire a large number of hotel management groups (hotel management networks) and hotels.

The rate of return of hotels in North America is not high, but what everyone values ​​is stability and risk sharing; and the hotel management network (which charges 4% to 10% of the management fee business) can provide a boost to the entire hotel group.

Liang Botao praised: "This is very necessary. New Era Real Estate has strong profitability and can provide better support for the hotel business. For example, New World's shareholding structure, we can refer to it."

Lin Zuhui said: "Okay, please help me sort out a plan and give it to me! Let me tell you another news. Starting next year, we will deploy the global hotel industry. Cathay Pacific City is expected to spend more than 20 billion to develop global hotel management. Network, and the acquisition of some well-run hotel property rights.”

Both Liang Liang was a little taken aback, this guy has a big appetite!
Hotels abroad are not as valuable as hotels in Xiangjiang (except for Los Angeles and New York in the United States). Like a five-star luxury hotel in Manila, even before the turmoil, the total value will not exceed 2 million (the cheapest five-star hotel in Xiangjiang The hotel is also worth more than 10 billion).

In addition to the price difference brought about by the region, there is also the price difference brought about by the hotel level. The cost of three-star and four-star hotels is much lower than that of five-star hotels.

而酒店管理网络就更便宜了，4亿元就可以购买一家拥有40家酒店15000间房的酒店管理公司51%股权；当然了，这家酒店管理公司只拥有这些酒店的管理网络权（收取4%~10%的管理费）

In a mansion in the middle of the mountain, Lin Zuhui looked at the antiques, calligraphy and paintings placed on a large table, feeling very happy.In fact, he didn't understand it very well, but it was as if he saw a beautiful woman, and he was really in a good mood.

And Zou Kaixuan on the side is also very happy, because his work has been recognized by his boss.In less than a year, she bought antiques and calligraphy and paintings worth 500 million yuan from the mainland, with only one mistake (fake), and the value was only tens of thousands of yuan. million commissions.

In fact, Zou Kaixuan could have lied about how much these antiques cost. Even if it was twice as high, Lin Zuhui might not know about it; There will be more money.And once the desire is released, it will be a bottomless pit, and sooner or later she will lose her biggest backer.

Lin Zuhui turned around and said, "I will give you more funds next year, but you have to buy better quality antiques!"

Xiaodong Xiaoxi's antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and jade wares seem to lose interest after seeing them once.

Zou Kaixuan replied: "Well, I know!"

"I remember you said that you are learning about antiques?" Lin Zuhui asked curiously.

Logically speaking, Zou Kaixuan can hire a few experts in the mainland as appraisers, anyway, the salary there is cheap.

Zou Kaixuan nodded, and said: "I have worshiped two masters in the capital, and I will learn from them when I have time. However, I have not reduced my studies on real estate."

She was worried that Lin Zuhui would say that she was not doing business properly. After all, she also knew that the boss wanted her to give him some useful investment advice in the Mainland.

Lin Zuhui didn't mean that, instead he said: "Well, you will help me take care of these antique collections in the future. I will entrust you with safekeeping from purchase to collection, and this house will also be kept by you temporarily. I will buy a villa later, specially Collect these things and keep them for you."

The housekeeper, Lin Zuhui positioned Zou Kaixuan as his housekeeper!

"Okay!" Zou Kaixuan agreed without hesitation.

Obviously, she knew that she had gained Lin Zuhui's trust.

"In that case, after you learn the skills of appreciation, come to Hong Kong to teach me. I can not only learn the skills, but also experience the fun of collecting antiques."

"Um"

Next, Zou Kaixuan introduced Lin Zuhui one by one, and they were quite decent, which made Lin Zuhui fully feel the fun.

And Lin Zuhui also took the time to pass on some real estate knowledge to her. For a while, the two of them were alone for a long time, and they met for dinner again at noon, feeling like good friends.

And Lin Zuhui himself is also very strange, he still has a superficial understanding of women, that is, collisions on the body, and now he can still become good friends with women.

Of course Zhou Kaixuan is not ugly, but Lin Zuhui really has no other ideas.

Lin Zuhui brought Qiu Shuzhen to the underwear brand business department of the "Ouchi Secret Detective" in the Crocodile Shirt Building. A capable woman in her 30s quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, you are here!"

This woman is called Lu Aijia. She is the president of the underwear brand "Da Nei Secret Detective" handpicked by Lin Zuhui. She is also a well-known executive in the Hong Kong clothing industry. She was hired by Lin Zuhui.

"President Lu, this is Qiu Shuzhen, a shareholder of the company, and now he has also joined the 'Da Nei Secret Detective' as an assistant to the president."

There is no need to speak too clearly!
Lu Aijia was not stupid, and quickly stretched out her right hand and said, "Assistant Qiu, welcome to join our 'Secret Detective'. Although everything is just beginning now, the boss has already designed the best plan for us. There is a place in the world.”

After she joined the LEIT Group, Lin Zuhui talked with her a lot, and proposed many suggestions including: establishing a model agency under her, using catwalks to gain popularity, registering in the UK and setting up a studio, etc. At that time, Lu Aijia was shocked. The idea is really great.

In fact, for the LEIT Group, the success or failure of a certain brand will not have a great impact on the group.For example, Lin Zuhui estimated that in 1988, only "crocodile shirt" and "IT fashion retail" could create a net profit of more than 1.5 million for the group.

The group has a stable profit, which means that Lin Zuhui can use leverage and rights issue to raise funds, so that the LEIT group can become stronger through acquisitions.

When Qiu Shuzhen first entered the workplace, she was a little reluctant to let go, and said cautiously: "I am still a novice in this industry, please take care of President Lu!"

Lu Aijia said gently: "Assistant Qiu has filtered it, our team is a start-up team, and everyone is under the command of the boss to build this brand from scratch. I believe that you will be integrated into the team soon!"

She is so beautiful, and she is a shareholder of the company, and she was brought in by the boss, so she must be the boss's woman; maybe she will become the director of the company and her own boss in the future, Lu Aijia thought so.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Okay, I will hand over Shuzhen to you, I hope you will take care of her more, it doesn't matter if you are strict!"

"Boss, you are joking, I will try my best to help my colleagues!"

Lin Zuhui nodded, gave Qiu Shuzhen an encouraging look, and then left the 'Da Nei Secret Detective'.This brand is still in incubation, and it is estimated that it will not be available in the market for at least three months!
He turned around and came to the casual fashion brand 'Jeanswest' department!
At present, the LEIT Group has joined forces with Fry Trading Australia to acquire the Australian clothing retail brand 'Jeanswest'. The LEIT Group has obtained 5% of the equity of Jeanswest Australia and obtained the global management rights except Australia and New Zealand, with a total consumption of 3800 million Hong Kong dollars.

At the same time, Australia's 'Jeanswest' has made an expansion plan, which will probably require LEIT to spend tens of millions of dollars within two years.

Of course, the biggest expense is the development of Jeanswest, which requires a lot of investment from design, production, to stores and marketing.

Fortunately, before the stock market crash, the LEIT Group raised a total of 10 billion funds (3 million rights issues + 7 million loans), which is enough for one or two years.

In the conference room of the Jeanswest brand, Lin Zuhui listened to the progress of the high-level preparations.

After listening, Lin Zuhui said: "Jeanswest's brand spokesperson, you go to contact Liu Dehua and sign a ten-year endorsement contract."

Signing Liu Dehua now is a very small price, because he has not yet made his mark in the film industry. After the filming of "Carmen in Mong Kok" next year, his value will skyrocket; and in the 90s, Liu Dehua will be the head of the four heavenly kings and become popular all over the world. Asia.

If the contract is signed for ten years, it will be very beneficial for the promotion of the 'Jeanswest' brand in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, the mainland, and even the whole of Asia.

Roger naturally believed in his boss's vision, and quickly said, "Okay!"

Regarding the decoration of the store, Lin Zuhui quoted his later generations' shopping experience, coupled with his IT store decoration experience, and put forward a lot of constructive suggestions, which made Luo Jie also admire him from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, the development of Jeanswest is to stare at the American brand Gap, and it is not wrong to learn more from the experience of others.
