Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 486 [You are so majestic! 】

Since February, real estate transactions in Xiangjiang have become active again, mainly because major real estate developers have provided additional mortgage services, and even some small and medium-sized banks have begun to secretly increase mortgages.

Major real estate developers took the opportunity to launch some residential units in some large housing estates to stimulate the market and achieve active trading. The results are also very gratifying.

this day.

Lin Zuhui, Cheng Yutong and Lee Shau Kee came to Kwai Chung Container Terminal to inspect the work.

"This site is good. It is used to build a container building, which can be bigger than the previous container building. Thanks to the friendship between Uncle Tong and the Hong Kong government, this time I did not return empty-handed!" Lin Zuhui sighed.

Zheng Yutong said with a smile: "You have finalized three ports in the mainland, what is the container building I built." Before he finished speaking, he said sadly: "It's just that the Hong Kong government and the mainland continue to fight like this. I don't know how many livelihood projects will be deadlocked. go down!"

His exclamation is not unreasonable. At the end of last year, the Kwai Chung Container Terminal No. 9 tender was invited. The Hong Kong government did not directly enter the bid based on the price. 9 container, 2 modern container.

All in all, the Asian container is still the big winner, which is also in line with the purpose of the new Hong Kong government to combat the excessive monopoly of international containers.

Asia Containers has five shareholders, namely: New Times Group (38%), New World Development (28%), Henderson, Jardine, and Hailu. If you win the two berths of Container Terminal 9, it is equivalent to Kwai Chung has 5 container berths.

However, the mainland officials and the Feipeng Hong Kong government are having conflicts, unilaterally vetoing the distribution plan, believing that major projects have not been communicated with the mainland, and saying that they will not recognize them after the [-]th.

As a result, the bidding for Container Terminal No. [-] naturally could not be counted, and it was also put on hold.

However, the Kwai Chung Container Terminal is already overwhelmed, and many container ships have to queue up to unload, which affects the local development of Hong Kong.

That's why Zheng Yutong said that because the two sides had such a big fight, many major livelihood projects had to be postponed, including the Lantau International Airport.
Lin Zuhui replied: "There is no way out! From the looks of it, it may be two or three years, everyone should be prepared!"

He suddenly understood that if his guess was followed, it meant that the building above the airport railway station might have been built in 1995.

At this time, Li Zhaoji suddenly said: "Zu Hui, you have such a good relationship in the mainland. I see that you stopped after you took down Modu Port, Rongqi Port, and Zhuhai Port. It's not like your style at all!" Finished, looked at Lin Zuhui with a smile.

What he meant was very simple. In the competition with Li Chaoren, Lin Zuhui has always been very active.

Zheng Yutong also said: "That's true! Ah Cheng has won many ports recently, and he is more powerful and active than you!"

In his opinion, there is no need to be humble!
There are no fathers and sons in the mall, let alone friends.

If it comes to the auction house, the three of them are competitors, and each auctions the land according to their own ability. It is impossible to rely on the friendship of the three masterminds.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "We can't compete with Li Chaoren. He has been in the mainland for so many years, and Yantian Port is in his pocket. The above-mentioned name is entrusted to him to do it. Why not he also accompanied the leader to inspect Yantian Port. What Shantou Port, Beihai Port, etc., he has taken the lead, so I can't handle him."

This statement is somewhat believable, Li Chaoren also has a deep relationship in the mainland, and the mainland also hopes to share the cooperation.

As for Wu Guangzhen, the mainland doesn't want to talk to him now!
Of course, with the initial investment of the charter king, Ningbo Port still let Wharf invest.

As for other ports, don't even think about it.

Although the matter at Container Terminal No. 9 was delayed this time, Zheng Yutong took the Hong Kong government's tricks and won a large piece of land for the construction of the container building.

Once the container building is completed, it will once again climb to the top of the world's largest container warehouse and is expected to be completed in 1996.

The three of them inspected the site of the container building together, and found a tea room to sit together.

Lin Zuhui said: "I plan to set up a private real estate fund this month, and I invite you to join me then!"

The two became interested, and Lee Shau Kee immediately asked, "Buy commercial real estate in Manhattan?"

Lin Zuhui nodded without concealing it, and said: "It is indeed a bargain-hunting commercial real estate in Manhattan, but I don't plan to buy it directly from the market, but I plan to buy it from properties handled by the government, which can be cheaper! Of course, the location is also particular, the best It is a commercial property near the university, because the university cannot move away."

Because of the severe sluggishness of commercial real estate in the United States in the past few years, both real estate companies and commercial banks in the United States have suffered serious crises, and countless bankruptcies have occurred.And some properties mortgaged to the bank are now closed down again, so the New York government simply sold and auctioned the mortgaged properties to repay the debt.

But in fact, the more it falls to the bottom, the less people buy, after all, the panic is great.

So it is quite profitable to pick up leaks at this time.

Lee Shau Kee said in admiration: "You are still amazing, you have all kinds of contacts in the world!"

Lin Zuhui said: "You have a lot of connections, you're being modest, aren't you?"

Lee Shau Kee waved his hand and said, "Our network is an active one. Those people are thinking about our money, so they come to the door to ask for investment. But I know that projects that come to the door may not necessarily make money."

In fact, despite Lee Shau Kee's lack of reputation in the four major real estate families, his apparent wealth this year is higher than that of the other three major families; because he holds a relatively high share in Henderson Land and directly controls the blue-chip stock of China Gas.

Although Li Chaoren controls many consortiums, he does not directly control Hutchison Whampoa and HK Electric, so it will not be counted as his wealth.

Lin Zuhui continued: "This is not necessarily true! By the way, Uncle Tong, are you buying a hotel in the United States?"

This matter was spread outside, so Lin Zuhui had to ask this question.

Zheng Yutong said generously: "Well, it needs about 7 million US dollars. But I think the same as you. The European and American economies have been sluggish since the late 80s, and now it has been three or four years. It is the right time to buy the bottom."

The Zheng Yutong family spent US$[-] million (approximately HK$[-] billion) to acquire [-] hotels from the American Stouffer Group and [-] hotels from the European Penta Group.Among them, [-] hotels in the United States are located in Chicago, Seattle, Florida, Hawaii and other places. New World has the property rights of [-] of them and the management rights contracts of [-] hotels.

According to Lin Zuhui, Zheng Yutong's family should use the money to start a real estate business.

Of course, Zheng Yutong's family has always wanted to become the hotel king of Xiangjiang, even the world's hotel king, so it is understandable.

In a few years, New Era Group will also need to acquire hotel assets, provided that the company's cash flow is too high.

I chatted with the two about some things. It was the first gathering among friends in the beginning of the year. The three families could be regarded as an alliance and could work together.

Local consortiums still need to form alliances, let alone foreign consortiums entering Hong Kong.

Xiangjiang is a highly monopolized place, and outsiders who want to come in and invest can only rely on local consortiums.

With the rise of emerging chaebols, we must also pay a visit to fellow villagers and Bole.

Don’t look at those Nanyang consortiums that brought huge capital into Hong Kong. In fact, they can only linger in second-tier real estate companies, such as Kerry Properties (Guo Huonian) and Sino Land (Huang Tingfang). These two are the best Nanyang consortiums. Not in the top ten real estate companies.

Such as Lippo (Li Wenzheng family, Indonesia), Hong Leong (Guo Lingcan family, Malaysia), Savills (Lin Siu Leong, Indonesia), Baoguang Industrial (Huang Ziming family, Thailand). These are only outside the second-tier families in Hong Kong. hovering.

Due to the appearance of Lin Zuhui, he snatched the rich assets of Lippo's Huazhi Center and Hong Leong's Overseas Trust Bank.They don't have much representation in Xiangjiang.

The New Times Group suddenly announced two news, and a typhoon of category [-] blew in Xiangjiang.

The first is to issue convertible bonds of 50 billion Hong Kong dollars, and major shareholders have subscribed for 25 billion Hong Kong dollars.

The second is that its subsidiary, Chinese Real Estate, will set up a private equity fund to invest in overseas real estate activities.

Both news are very incredible:

The first news is unbelievable that New Times Group will issue bonds in Xiangjiang, which will face investors in Xiangjiang; while other companies issue convertible bonds, usually for foreign countries, such as US dollar bonds, samurai bonds (Japanese ) and so on, this is because Xiangjiang is too small and worried that the distribution will not be successful.Every time New Times Group issues bonds, they issue Hong Kong dollar bonds in Hong Kong, which shows the confidence of Mr. Lin Zuhui.

The second news is that it is incredible that there is no special "real estate fund" in Heung Kong. This is the first time; the important thing is that this is still a "real estate fund" investing overseas.

Of course, with Lin Zuhui's reputation and reputation, there were a lot of people responding immediately.From the perspective of Xiangjiang investors, it must be very profitable to mingle with Lin Zuhui, who enjoys "turning stones into gold".

The Regent Hotel is holding a jewelry auction of a certain brand.

Many well-known international jewelry brands regularly hold jewelry auctions in some important cities around the world, and the jewelry auctioned are top jewelry that is difficult to sell in stores.

And Xiangjiang is undoubtedly the world's top "rich" city, whether it is jewelry brands or luxury brands, they all regard this place as a money-making center in Asia.

Lin Zixia and Shi Nansheng came to the scene and immediately attracted the attention and greetings of many people.

Both of them are celebrities in Xiangjiang, and Lin Zixia is a representative of "success and fame" in the entertainment industry. Although there have been a lot of troubles in the relationship history in recent years, after all, the relationship is Lin Zuhui, but no one despises her.

Who is Lin Zuhui? He is the founder of a world-class family that surpasses the four major families in Hong Kong. He is only 28 years old this year, and he has already become the richest man in the Chinese, and he is more likely to become the richest man in the world.It doesn't matter if you are rich, the important thing is to be handsome and talented, which will inevitably become the dream object of thousands of girls and young women.

After sitting down, Shi Nansheng joked with a smile: "You are so majestic, Mrs. Boss!"

Lin Zixia looked at Shi Nansheng with a heroic look. Shi Nansheng, who is also a woman, couldn't help but sigh. There are thousands of beauties, but Lin Zixia only has one. No wonder such a legendary man, even if Qingxia is 10 years older than him, insisted on coming A golden house hides the charm.

"Talking too much, it's not good for others to hear! In his words, I'm just his confidante!"

"What do you know?"

"He knows everything, so naturally he can talk about everything."

"Tsk tsk, I admit this sentence, our boss knows everything, otherwise there would be no ATV!"

As an executive of ATV, how can anyone not know that ATV's today is all planned by Lin Zuhui.Otherwise, no matter how good Selina Chow is, it would be great to be able to have a [-]-[-] relationship with TVB. How can she become a world-class TV station.

Lin Zixia is also very happy for her friend to work at ATV, after all, the salary is high, and the important thing is the network.

Auction starts soon.

At the beginning, some people may not have paid much attention to Lin Zixia, thinking that she could have some money.

However, Lin Zixia is no longer what it used to be. She collects tens of millions in rent every year, not to mention the more than 2000 million from the family office. The funds are very abundant.

Soon, Lin Zixia took a fancy to a 100-carat blue diamond. If she had worried about it being too expensive before, she didn't have much hesitation now.What's more, her man said that diamonds will also appreciate in value, and their potential is very good, of course it is lower than jade.

She calmly raised the placard, and for a moment, the auctioneers couldn't help but wonder how much Lin Zuhui gave these women, and the diamond ring worth 100 million US dollars was not soft at all.

In the end, Lin Zixia got her wish and won the 136-carat blue diamond for US$100 million, which was instantly remembered by the media.

Shi Nansheng sighed: "My God, you are crazy, tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars!"

Lin Zixia said excitedly: "I don't know why, I didn't want to spend such an expensive one, but I think Ah Hui must agree with me taking it."

Shi Nansheng was speechless!
Shouson Hill Villa.

Lin Zuhui's car drove into the front yard, and soon he saw Lin Zixia walking out of the gate with her son in her arms, and he couldn't help showing a knowing smile.Cherishing Lin Zixia, he has always felt that it is a very necessary thing.

"Ah Hui, I made a mistake!" Lin Zixia hugged her son, pretending to be pitiful and said.

Lin Zuhui smiled, and hugged his son to tell him that he made a mistake, which made him not care about it at all, unless it was a principled mistake, that is, she dared to hook up with other men.

"What's the matter?" Lin Zuhui took the child, wrapped his arms around Lin Zixia's waist, and walked towards the villa.

Lin Zixia immediately said: "I attended an auction and saw a big blue diamond. I couldn't resist spending more than 1000 million Hong Kong dollars!"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Then show me, I will check for you, is it worth it!"

Lin Zixia immediately said excitedly: "You don't blame me for wasting money?"

He said a wise saying, which made Lin Zixia admiring!
"A rich person spends money, that's not called spending money, that's called investment. A poor person spends money, that's called real spending!"

The implication is that rich people spend money to buy diamonds, jade, red wine, and even luxury goods, which can be regarded as investments, because they will appreciate in value.The same is true for luxury goods, not to mention how much they appreciate, but at least they maintain their value.

This has also become: the rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting richer.

"I love you, dear husband!" Lin Zixia relieved her heart, kissed Lin Zuhui happily, and then took Lin Zuhui to watch.

Handing the child to the nanny, the two walked towards the underground treasure room.

This villa is almost the best villa in Shouson Hill, much better than that of Li Chaoren. The current value should be more than 1 million Hong Kong dollars.

So just because Lin Zixia lives in Shouson Hill, the upper circles in Xiangjiang know that Lin Zuhui's lover is more noble than them.

Come to the treasure room with heavy protection underground, where there are many treasures, and there will be more in the future.

Seeing the blue diamond auctioned by Lin Zixia, Lin Zuhui looked at it carefully and commented: "It's very beautiful, suitable for you to attend important occasions."

"What about the room for appreciation?"

"It's very big. In another 20 years, it will be worth more than 1 million yuan, which is no less than the room for real estate appreciation."

Lin Zixia jumped into Lin Zuhui's arms excitedly, and said happily: "I thought it was too expensive! You don't know, I didn't plan to auction it at the time, but I always felt that if you were by my side, I would definitely ask me to buy it. So, I bought it!"

Lin Zuhui was slightly distracted when he heard the words. He seemed to remember that in an interview in his previous life, Lin Zixia did say that she saw a 100-carat blue diamond cost more than 100 million US dollars before she got married. At an auction 20 years later, she did not expect It already costs 1.9 million Hong Kong dollars.A reporter asked, will the old dog buy it for you?Lin Zixia smiled and avoided the topic, obviously the price was too high.

From this point of view, this woman is very lucky in this life!
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Zixia raised her head and said with a smile that hadn't faded.

Lin Zuhui said: "I was thinking, should we be in your treasure room, romantic and romantic!"

"It's disgusting, I'm thinking about doing bad things before I eat!"

Looking at the ladylike Lin Zixia, she is not only beautiful, but also has a heroic spirit, which is just right.As long as she doesn't have short hair, Lin Zuhui absolutely loves this temperament.

In the end, Lin Zuhui braked in time and exited the treasure room with Lin Zixia in his arms.

"Since it's making a human, it's natural to be more formal. After dinner, let's have fun!"

"Hateful, always talking hooligans!"

"It's called boudoir fun!"

"It's up to you!"

After some flirting, the two returned to the restaurant for dinner.

Eating is serious, this is for a better experience waiting.

10pm late at night.

Lin Zuhui was lying on the bed watching TV, but he was looking forward to what kind of surprise Lin Zixia would give him. He had played all kinds of ancient costumes and hoped that she could make a breakthrough.

Suddenly, Lin Zuhui was amazed.

I saw that the very young girl defeated by Lin Zixia looked like she was in her 20s. Of course, if you don't take it seriously!
"Don't laugh at me! You said you liked me in the 70s, so I dressed you up!" Lin Zixia said nervously.

Lin Zuhui immediately stepped forward, pulled her in front of his eyes, and said, "Of course I don't laugh, you look like the number one beauty in Taiwan at that time."

Immediately this made the beauty happy, and then she turned around, wearing a pink skirt, coupled with her joyful mood, gave Lin Zuhui the illusion that if he traveled back to the 70s, he must go to Taiwan to snatch her.

Maybe after he dies of old age, he will travel through the 70s again.
