Reborn Tycoon Rise

Chapter 167 Ship King Bao Yugang

On April 16, after the company's meeting, Xu Zhi's exclusive motorcade rushed to the Cultural Oriental Hotel to participate in the charity gala held by the Hong Kong Governor's Office!

Normally, the gala of the Governor's House would be held in his own house, but this time too many people were invited, so it was moved to the Cultural Oriental Hotel.

Today, the security of the hotel is extremely strict. Several employees are checking identity information. Many guests' cars do not need to drive to the underground garage. After confirming the identity at the hotel gate, professional waiters will personally take the guests to the elevator.

After just a quick glance, there were a large number of Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Maybach and other super luxury cars nearby. Rich people in Xiangjiang love luxury cars very much, but Xu Zhi's two Mercedes-Benzes seemed a bit out of place.

The party started at 7 o'clock. When Xu Zhi walked into the banquet hall, many people had already arrived. This kind of large gathering is also a place for countless individuals to find cooperation and negotiate business. Many small groups gather together and chat leisurely. The banquet hall was very large. Xu Zhi looked around and found almost no one he knew.

Wang Liming knew a lot of them, but he could only introduce them one by one next to Xu Zhi, because he knew these rich people, but others did not know him. Listening to the familiar names, Xu Zhi also became familiar with the faces. In fact, he had heard the names of many wealthy people in later generations, but they just didn't match his face.

"Xu Sheng, why don't you go over and get to know everyone?" A voice suddenly appeared behind Xu Zhi and Wang Liming.

Xu Zhi turned around and found that it was Comrade Li, so he said, "Li Sheng, I don't know anyone here. It's not very polite to walk into other people's circles rashly."

Li Jiacheng nodded and said: "Xu Sheng's industry may not have much contact with people here, but now with your reputation, everyone wants to come and get to know you. How about this, how about I take Xu Sheng around, Some of my friends also want to know you, a world-famous Chinese!"

"That's an award." Xu Zhi said, "Thank you for your hard work, Li Sheng!"

"Okay, let's go." Li Jiacheng smiled and led Xu Zhi towards the inside of the conference hall.

"This is Mr. Guo Desheng, the chairman of Sun Hung Kai Properties..."

"This is Mr. Zheng Yutong, the chairman of New World Properties and Chow Tai Fook Jewelry..."

"This is Mr. Li Shauji, chairman of Henderson Group..."

"This is Mr. Hu Yingxiang, the chairman of Hopewell Industries..."

"This is Mr. Chen Zengxi, the chairman of Hang Lung Group..."

"This is Mr. Chen Detai, the chairman of Dachang Real Estate..."

Li Jiacheng introduced Xu Zhi to everyone, which was regarded as a face-to-face meeting. For these real estate giants, it is actually unlikely that they can cooperate with Xu Zhi at present. However, Xiangjiang is a small city after all, and he will often attend various wealthy parties in the future. , still need to get to know each other.

Li Shauji, Guo Desheng, Zheng Yutong and Li Jiacheng were known as the four major families in Hong Kong in later generations. Now it is 1979, and their companies have been called the Five Tigers of Chinese Real Estate.

The last of the Five Tigers, Hopewell Holdings, is actually the boss of the Five Tigers. In another year, the newly built Hopewell Center Building will surpass Hongkong Land's Connaught Building and become the tallest building in Hong Kong. The reason why it will decline in the later period is because Hopewell Industrial invested too much in heavy industry and infrastructure in the reform and opening up areas in the mainland, such as the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Expressway, which will be the most congested in the future, and the Shatin Power Plant with a total investment of more than 4 billion. These have contributed to the mainland economy. Injecting a lot of vitality, Hopewell Industrial also made a lot of profits from it. However, for real estate companies, during the real estate crisis in the early 1980s, funds were trapped and the best time for development was lost.

The other four companies took advantage of the situation to rise. Many people only know that Li Jia has become the culprit of high housing prices in Hong Kong. This is true to a certain extent, but Lao Li is not the only one.

In the mid-1980s, Li Jiacheng began to diversify overseas investments while operating real estate in Xiangjiang. Relatively speaking, he did not focus all his energy on Xiangjiang.

However, the other three major families have taken root in Xiangjiang and sucked up the blood of ordinary people. These three major families have contributed more to the high housing prices in Xiangjiang than Comrade Li.

After introducing a few more people, Xu Zhi shook hands politely and said a few polite words, until Li Jiacheng introduced: "Sheng Xu, you should know this person, Mr. Bao Yugang, the shipping king!"

Bao Yugang was still young at this moment, and said in a loud voice: "What a shipping king? Compared with the entrepreneurial path of my little brother, we all are ashamed!"

Xu Zhi said with a smile: "Sheng Bao is so humble. You are the richest man in China. I am still far behind."

Bao Yugang shook his head and said: "The richest man is just a bunch of numbers. Xu Sheng, you are so young. It is estimated that you will surpass me in less than two years."

Xu Zhidao: "Anything more than that will only be based on data."

With the same worth, one person only has so much money in the bank, while the other has an industry that can continuously create benefits and provide employment. So the influence of these two people is very different.

Although Xu Zhi's industry is highly profitable, in terms of influence, it cannot compare with these top tycoons in Hong Kong, not to mention the shipping king Bao Yugang. Comrade Bao Yugang is now at his most glorious moment, and leaders of countless countries are grabbing After selling the boat to him, there are also prime ministers and presidents of countless countries taking photos in his office.

Bao Yugang nodded, agreed with this statement, and said: "You are still young. You can't rush this kind of thing. Let me introduce you. This is my second son-in-law, Wu Guangzheng. You are all young people. Please communicate more." !”

Wu Guangzheng shook hands and said with a smile: "Hello, Xu Sheng."

"Hello." Xu Zhi said back. This will be the most "domineering" son-in-law in the whole of China in the future. He has inherited the core asset of the Bao family - the Wharf Group. By the 21st century, the annual rent collection alone will exceed 150,000 yuan. 100 million Hong Kong dollars, making countless people envious and jealous!

However, marrying a rich wife is also a matter of ability. It is another kind of "starting from scratch", but the direction chosen is different from other people's entrepreneurial ventures!

Wu Guangzheng said: "Xu Sheng's name is so well-known. One movie has earned countless wealthy families a lifetime of hard work. It's admirable!"

Xu Zhi said: "It's just luck. Hollywood may not be able to produce a movie like this for many years. It is almost impossible to copy it again. Wu Sheng also likes to watch Hollywood movies?"

Wu Guangzheng nodded and said: "I used to study in the United States and I often went to watch movies. Then I started working and didn't have much time. After Home Alone became famous, I rented one and brought it back. It was really interesting.

Xu Sheng has achieved such success in movies. Now that he has returned to Hong Kong, isn't he ready to continue earning Hollywood dollars? "

"Who doesn't like U.S. dollars?" Xu Zhi said with a smile: "I established a film company in the United States, and the team has been established. I left a few scripts, and they filmed according to the scripts. Although it is unlikely to have the same results as Home Alone, But it’s still okay to make some pocket money.”

"Xu Sheng's pocket money is something that countless people would envy!" Wu Guangzheng laughed.

Xu Zhi smiled and said: "Compared to some businesses in Xiangjiang, this is indeed just pocket money."

Wu Guangzheng said: "But business in Xiangjiang is not so easy to establish!"

Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Wu Sheng, since you have launched a challenge, you must have confidence. Some companies may seem huge, but they are actually just paper tigers."

After Bao Yugang obtained Li Jiacheng's Wharf shares, he and Wu Guangzheng joined the Wharf board of directors. However, Jardine obviously did not trust them. There were various overt and covert fights on the board of directors, and they tried their best to exclude Bao Yugang. There were several rumors. At the board meeting, the two sides talked to no avail.

Wu Guangzheng nodded and said with a smile: "I don't think I have seen many people in Xiangjiang who dare to say that Yihe is a paper tiger."

Xu Zhi laughed and said: "It is true that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, but if you meet a wild wolf, it will be a sumptuous dinner!"

Wu Guangzheng said: "Thank you very much Xu Sheng for your kind words!"
