Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 397 Universal Real Estate

…

"I have read your report, and it is very good. However, I have a few questions here, and I hope you can answer them."

"Please speak!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "First, how do you judge that China's real estate market will continue to grow in the next ten years? You must know that your competitors generally believe that the current real estate in mainland China is too hot, and land kings are frequent. The housing prices in first- and second-tier cities It has more than doubled the monthly salary of ordinary white-collar workers, or even more. Therefore, at most three to five years, a 'Japan-style real estate bubble' will be staged and eventually lead to the downturn of the entire industry!"

"The changes in real estate prices are closely related to the national economy. The main criteria for judging whether a country's economy is good or bad include: gross national assets, fixed asset investment, residents' disposable income, consumer price index, total foreign trade, and the stock market. ."

“In the past ten years, China’s GDP has quadrupled, from 493.1 billion in 1992 to 14,705 in 2002, with an average growth rate of more than 12%. The total investment in fixed assets has increased from 521.7 billion CNY in 1992 to now. 3,691.7 billion Chinese dollars, an increase of 7 times! The disposable income of residents has increased from 830 Chinese dollars in 1992 to 12,037 Chinese dollars now, an increase of 15 times. Consumer price index, total foreign trade, total stock market, industrial asset investment , urban and rural income and expenditure, etc., have increased by more than ten times.”

"In contrast, the price of Huaxia real estate has entered a six-year downturn since the Hai-Nan real estate bubble. It didn't resume growth until 1998. In four years, compared to the annual influx of tens of millions into the city It's still a huge seller's market for new residents. It's too early to say it's crashing. In fact, in my opinion, as long as China's economy continues to develop, this market will not collapse. And now China's economy It is in full swing, not only there is no sign of collapse, but because of the recovery of the world economy, it is developing faster."

Guo Shouyun nodded, looked at the confident woman, and smiled: "You know that the theory of Huaxia collapse is very popular in the West now, especially after Huaxia enters the market. Even many domestic economists believe that entering the market will hit China's local manufacturing. industry, causing the economy to collapse.”

"No. I don't think so. Joining the WTO reduces the import tariffs of some industrial products in China, but what you get is participation in the formulation of WTO trade rules and a fairer international trade environment. This is beneficial to the country's exports. As for Huaxia's industries, most of them are low-end industries that have been abandoned by developed countries. With its advantageous industrial population, Huaxia has achieved faster development at lower prices and in a fairer trade environment. One point, the past experience of South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore has proved it correct."

"When enough capital and technology are accumulated, as well as a higher level of skilled workers, the industry will naturally climb upstream. This will change the quality of China's economy and improve safety. ... From low-end industries to mid-to-high-end industries, this It is a transformation process that will take at least 20 years. China's economy will enter a golden age!" Tang Wenfang said solemnly.

"I didn't expect you to be so confident in Huaxia's future?" Guo Shouyun laughed after pondering for a while.

"Man-made mirrors can correct clothes, and history can be used as a mirror to know the rise and fall. Judging from the history of China in the past five thousand years, as long as the domestic political situation remains stable, no matter how the external changes, our economy will continue to move forward. And now, it is China. The most stable period in more than 50 years since its establishment. Therefore, I have full confidence in the future of the country.”

"So the economy is stable and the future of real estate is worth looking forward to?"

"Yes!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "Second, why do you suggest that in addition to the apartments and commercial real estate in the central city, you should also purchase industrial warehouses?"

"When the real estate industry is developing rapidly, apartments and commercial properties in the central city are the fastest in value. If they enter a downturn, they also have the strongest ability to preserve their value. As for industrial warehouses, economic development will increase the demand for storage space in all walks of life. Demand. In addition, with the development of the city, the original suburbs will become urban areas. Therefore, the suburbs of first- and second-tier cities today have great investment value. However, if you simply hoard land, there is a risk of being reclaimed by the city government. Operating factories, It is too cumbersome. Therefore, industrial warehouses have become the best choice. They cover a large area, are simple to operate, and can gradually recover the cost of renting. The most important thing is: once the surrounding land prices rise, we will get several times more income."

"Looks like you're thinking a long way!"

"Because the boss needs a long-term development strategy!" Tang Wenfang said neither humble nor arrogant.

"Not bad!" Guo Shouyun nodded in agreement, "Third, why do you think the current real estate investment should not only consider first- and second-tier cities, but also include major third- and fourth-tier cities?"

"Because the stage of rapid growth of a market is limited. When the first- and second-tier real estate markets grow up, funds will naturally sink to third- and fourth-tier cities. Real estate prices and potential in cities will not be as high as those in first- and second-tier cities. However, the corresponding land transfer prices in third- and fourth-tier cities are also relatively lower. From the perspective of income, the difference between the two is not much.”

"In addition, consortia at home and abroad are now staring at the first- and second-tier cities with greater potential. Various interest groups are intertwined, and the entanglement between the government and the private sector is bottomless. In comparison, the competition in third- and fourth-tier cities is slightly smaller. Some. Moreover, they often lack foreign investment, so they are more welcome to companies like us, and they will provide certain help in policy.”

Guo Shouyun nodded, and after pondering for a while, "It seems that you have a lot of research on real estate in mainland China."

"Thank you for your compliment. But many of my friends think I'm too optimistic about the future of mainland real estate."

"Things that follow others' words often lack in-depth thinking. Instead, those real truths are the experience summary of a few elites. That's why I asked you to meet. ... Congratulations, Ms. Tang Wenfang, from today onwards, you are CEO of Universal Properties."

Looking at the hand stretched out in front of her, Tang Wenfang's eyes jumped violently, desperately suppressing her inner excitement, and after taking a deep breath, she stretched out her right hand with a trembling and shook it.

"Thank...Thank you. I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

"I trust my own vision and your judgment." After a pause, "Please sit down. Regarding the investment strategy of Global Real Estate, I would like to explain to you."

"Yes, please say it!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "First of all, I agree with your judgment. However, although I am interested in Huaxia Real Estate, I am not very interested in real estate development. The main purpose of my establishment of Global Real Estate is to buy mature apartments and commercial properties. The real estate is rented out, and the rental income plus the mortgage loan is used to buy more apartments and commercial real estate. From this point of view, the business of Universal Real Estate has two: first, real estate agency. Second, the maintenance of real estate. In the short term, we It only develops in first- and second-tier cities. In addition, my expectation for Universal Real Estate is that it can become the largest 'charter leader' in China and even the world."

"For the investment in Global Real Estate, I will basically maintain the minimum monthly level of 20 million US dollars, of course, it may be higher. If you are her CEO, your monthly salary is 100,000 Chinese dollars after tax. After three years, Depending on your contribution to the company, you will be rewarded with a 1-2% option. .

After a pause, Guo Shouyun's face became more thoughtful. If you just buy a house for rent, it feels like a waste of Tang Wenfang's talent in this industry.

"I appreciate your expectations and assessment of the real estate industry. So, if your operating performance within a year can satisfy me, I can hand over my 'real estate development' investment business in Huaxia to you. ... You can't Looking down on this part of the business, its scale is not inferior to my investment in Global Properties.”

"Thank you for your trust, I am very honored to be in this position!"

Tang Wenfang briefly thought about it, then nodded quickly.

"I believe you will not regret today's decision."

After recruiting the staff next to him, Hanhua's lawyer drafted an employment contract. After Tang Wenfang signed, she officially became the CEO of Universal Properties.

The CEO of Global Real Estate was confirmed, and Guo Shouyun's concerns were also resolved. Just as he was about to attend the charity dinner held by the Hong Kong government at night, Liu Ruanxiong, who had been forgotten, called.

"Mr. Guo, three days have passed, you seem to have forgotten my agreement?"

"Mr. Liu misunderstood. In fact, I was about to call you. I never thought you would be a step ahead."

"That said, Mr. Guo and I are still very tacit. But for cooperation, what is your final decision...?"

"I'm sorry, I don't have much interest in the Hong Kong real estate market. So I can only live up to Mr. Liu's kindness!" Guo Shouyun said directly.

"Mr. Guo, do you think about it? The downturn in housing prices caused by the Asian financial crisis in 1997 has passed, and the future of Hong Kong's real estate market is bright!"

"I hope to cooperate with Mr. Liu in other areas in the future. I have no interest in Hong Kong real estate."

"Well, since Mr. Guo insists on rejecting it, I won't say much more. I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with Mr. Guo in the future."

"Okay, bye!"

Before Guo Shouyun's words were finished, the other side had already hung up the phone. He frowned slightly, feeling that he was being neglected, and after shaking his head, he didn't take it to heart. Liu Ruoxiong is just a passerby to himself.

"Boss, your clothes!"

After taking the coat that Matthew handed over and putting it on, he left the house with him.

2 Tim Mei Avenue, the seat of the Hong Kong government.

The charity dinner was obviously not the only invitee to Guo Shouyun. When he arrived, a lot of people had gathered here. However, more than 99% of them are unfamiliar, and the only two who are familiar are Li Zeju and Zheng Haiquan. Needless to say the former, the latter was when he gave a speech at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the two sides had a brief exchange, so it was not too familiar. So, naturally, he walked towards Li Zeju.

However, as the eldest son of the Li family, the future heir to Changshi and the Huang family consortium, Li Zeju will never lack friends.

When he came over, there were already five people around Li Zeju. Two men and one woman, in terms of temperament, are either rich or expensive.

"Hi, Bruce!"

When Guo Shouyun saw Li Zeju, the latter also saw him at the same time, so he waved his hand five or six meters away.

"I'm relieved to see you here."

After a brief hug, Guo Shouyun smiled.

"Oh why?"

"At least there is one who can talk, otherwise it will be embarrassing!" After the words were finished, Guo Shouyun turned his eyes to the three people who were looking at him, "Won't you introduce me?"

"It's getting ready! ... This is Ms. He Chaoqiong from Amigalo Group, this is Mr. Zheng Jiachun, director of New World Development Corporation, and this is Mr. Wang Wenxiang from JM Manufacturing Company in the United States."

"Mr. Guo, we meet again!"

The thin Wang Wenxiang took the initiative to stretch out his right hand towards Guo Shouyun.

After shaking hands briefly, "Mr. Wang knows me?"

"I don't know, but I'm very good friends with Mr. Cheng Zhengchang from Panda Express. He mentioned Mr. Guo several times, and he praised him every time. I've heard a lot, and I'm naturally impressed. And, even without these, Based on Mr. Guo's achievements in the United States, I am also very impressed!"

"It turns out that. Thanks to Mr. Cheng's attention, unfortunately I have a lot of things to do, and I haven't visited for almost half a year."

After a simple greeting, Guo Shouyun turned his gaze to the other two. Needless to say, Zheng Jiachun is the successor of Zheng Yutong, the older generation of entrepreneurs in Hong Kong, and the future helmsman of Zheng's enterprises such as Chow Tai Fook Jewellery and New World Development.

He Chaoqiong, the daughter of Macau-Macau gambling king Ho Hongcan, has the title of "Contemporary Mulan" in Hong Kong and Macau. Although he was kicked out of the He family in his early years, he turned against the trend with his extraordinary talent and professionalism. He not only became the successor of the old father's Xinde Group, but also became Hong Kong and Macau with the shares of MGM 8 years later. The richest woman, with a net worth of more than $3 billion.

As the so-called 'like things gather, people are divided into groups', low-key forbearance, silently under the cover of his father's halo, and his sharp-edged younger brother, Li Zeju's friends who have worked hard for more than 20 years are also the kind of friends who walk in the spotlight. In addition, calm temperament, low-key and talented elite.

"Ze Ju~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Since you know Mr. Guo, you should have told me earlier. I have admired Mr. Guo's business talents for a long time and wanted to visit for a long time!" Zheng Jiachun said.

Li Zeju smiled and didn't say much. With his character, how could such a thing be said everywhere?

"Mr. Zheng is polite, don't we know each other now?" Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

"Hehe, Mr. Guo is right. We have a chance today, so we should have a good chat."

After Guo Shouyun nodded, his eyes turned to the capable woman next to him.

"Miss He, even though I am in the United States, I have heard the name of 'Contemporary Mulan' for a long time."

"Mr. Guo is really good at complimenting people, how can my fame compare to Mr. Guo's reputation!" He Chaoqiong smiled and held Guo Shouyun's outstretched right hand.
