Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

Chapter 476 Circle of Friends

In the first few days after returning to Xiangjiang, Lin Baicheng was dealing with matters of various companies.

On Wednesday, Lin Baicheng held a dinner and invited some people to attend. After all, he had been away from Xiangjiang for a long time. It is still necessary to invite some friends to a dinner party, chat with each other, and enhance relationships.

Although the dinner was held on Wednesday, preparations began on Monday, and invitations were sent out to some people, so everyone who was free to attend on that day came.

The dinner was held at the Peninsula Hotel.

In fact, if possible, Lin Baicheng would like to hold the event in his own hotel. This would not only allow his hotel to make money, but would also be more convenient.

Unfortunately, the Hutchison Hotel has not yet been completed, so if you need to use the hotel now, you can only find it from outside.

Hutchison Whampoa Hotel is a large hotel built by Hutchison Whampoa Company last year. The hotel will be self-operated and named after Hutchison Whampoa.

The dinner that day can be described as a gathering of tycoons. Although Hutchison Whampoa's stock price has fallen a lot since the beginning of the year, this does not affect Lin Baicheng's status. On the contrary, as time goes by, his social status in Hong Kong will only get higher and higher.

Although there are many wealthy families in Xiangjiang, in the final analysis, capital is king. Lin Baicheng has so much wealth and the influence of the companies he controls naturally means his social status is high.

"Lin Sheng, congratulations. You, the richest man in Hong Kong, have a growing net worth."

Bao Yugang congratulated Lin Baicheng, his tone full of envy. He also bought some of the 20% shares of Galaxy Games that Lin Baicheng sold, so he knew the market value at which Lin Baicheng sold 20% of the shares, and knew the minimum market value at which Galaxy Games would go public.

It can be said that Galaxy Games alone can add nearly 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to Lin Baicheng's net worth. Once the company's stock price rises a little after it goes public, the added wealth for Lin Baicheng will exceed 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

If Lin Baicheng's acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa and the investment profits that allowed Hutchison Whampoa to have such a high market value are partly due to luck, then the Galaxy Games Company that Lin Baicheng worked hard to create cannot be described as lucky. .

Ever since Lin Baicheng contacted him and asked him if he wanted to buy some shares of Galaxy Games, and after he learned about the company's valuation, Bao Yugang knew clearly that Lin Baicheng's net worth now really exceeded his.

No matter what, it only took Lin Baicheng about two years to get his current net worth, while Bao Yugang got his current net worth after decades of hard work. There is no comparison between the two. To say that Bao Yugang is not Envy is fake.

"Thanks."

Lin Baicheng smiled when he heard this and did not deny his modesty anymore, because being modest anymore would seem a bit hypocritical.

"Thank you Lin Sheng for thinking of me this time and letting me buy some shares before Galaxy Games goes public."

Bao Yugang thanked him. Lin Baicheng had already told him about the situation before buying the shares. After hearing this, he immediately decided to buy because he believed that Goldman Sachs and other American institutions must have purchased the shares in advance to make money. He followed them and made a loss. Not likely.

"You're welcome, Mr. Bao. We are friends. I will naturally think of you when good things happen."

Lin Baicheng said with a smile, but he knew in his heart that Bao Yugang had accepted his favor. As long as the stock price of Galaxy Games rises after its listing and Bao Yugang makes money from this investment, then the favor can be considered truly lost.

The prerequisite for losing a favor is to invest and make money. If Bao Yugang's investment suffers a loss, then let alone losing a favor. If Bao Yugang doesn't blame him, it would be because Bao Yugang is pregnant and wants Bao Yugang to owe him a favor. Don't think about such good things.

"Yes, we are friends and we should help each other."

Bao Yugang smiled and nodded. Just keep things like favors in mind. There is no need to mention them all the time.

"Lin Sheng! Bao Sheng!"

It was Guo Henian who spoke out, but he was not the only one who came over, there were also Huo Yingdong, Hu Yinxiang, Zheng Yudong, and Li Zhaoji.

"Huo Sheng! Hu Sheng! Zheng Sheng! Li Sheng!"

Lin Baicheng greeted each other with several people who came.

Guo Henian asked with a smile: "What were you two talking about just now?"

"Nothing, just a casual chat."

Lin Baicheng didn't want everyone to keep talking about his net worth.

"causal talk?"

Hu Yinxiang smiled and said: "Don't talk about business cooperation, right? Just like the Ocean Import and Export Trading Company, you established such a company quietly and jointly, and the investment is not small."

Li Zhaoji nodded in agreement: "The cost per person is hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, which is quite generous."

Zheng Yudong said: "Whether it is Lin Sheng or Bao Sheng, if they cooperate, it will definitely be in the amount of 100 million Hong Kong dollars."

Bao Yugang smiled and waved his hand: "That cooperation was a coincidence. One of Lin Sheng's friends proposed the cooperation, and I happened to be there, so we participated together."

"If there is any cooperation in the future, everyone can participate in it together."

Lin Baicheng said with a smile that the relationship between several people here and him was pretty good, so he didn't mind enhancing their relationships through business cooperation. This was how connections were slowly built up.

Among the few people, Li Zhaoji and Lin Baicheng only started to get closer at the beginning of this year. The main reason was that Hutchison Whampoa and Hengji Zhaoye had a lot of cooperation. Therefore, Lin Baicheng and Li Zhaoji had more contacts, and their relationship also developed through walking around. Slowly deepening, he was pulled into his 'circle of friends' by Lin Baicheng.

"As long as it's a business that Lin Sheng is optimistic about, I have no problem."

Huo Yingdong was the first to agree because he was also one of the people who purchased shares of Galaxy Games and knew that Lin Baicheng's net worth had increased a lot and his business abilities were beyond doubt.

"me too."

Guo Henian, Zheng Yudong and others later echoed.

Everyone has no objection to working together, not only because they believe in Lin Baicheng's ability, but also because when it comes time to cooperate, they must first know what they are cooperating with, and they themselves will judge whether the cooperative business can make money.

If they think that the business cooperation is very risky, no matter how happy they agree now, they can find excuses to refuse. An excuse of tight funds can completely push away everything.

Regarding cooperation, Lin Baicheng has only mentioned this. He has never thought about any good cooperation that can allow several people to invest together. If you happen to meet each other in the future, then you can get a few people to invest and cooperate together; if you don't meet, forget it. He will not specifically set up bridges for the so-called cooperation. He will not do such troublesome things. Will do it.
