The rise of Hong Kong's wealthy families

Chapter 97 Clothing Retailing

In July, after Li Jiacheng and Bao Yugang completed the transaction, Bao Yugang immediately mobilized funds and began to attract retail investors' Wharf stocks. Although it was not like the previous life, 10 million shares were purchased in 8 days, but after more than half a month, He also purchased more than 10 million shares, controlling about 30% of Wharf's equity, nearly double the equity of Jardine Matheson.

For the sake of safety, Bao Yugang transferred these 30 million shares to his subsidiary Longfeng International at a price of 55 yuan per share, which was much higher than the market price. However, Bao Yugang's move was very shrewd, benefiting both offense and defense. It can then control more than 50% of the equity of Wharf. If the acquisition fails, the most it will lose is Longfeng International Company.

In fact, such a transfer does not cost a penny, it is just a change of name.

What is ironic is that Jardine Matheson ignored such a large-scale acquisition and did not wake up until the end of the year.

Through secret purchases by Standard Chartered Bank, Ho also held 14.7% of Wharf's shares, close to the shares held by Jardine Matheson, but he also owed a leverage loan of 300 million.

"Five Lucky Stars" has been in theaters for half a month, with a total box office of 41.2 million, setting a new box office record in Hong Kong, becoming the box office champion, and making Yunzhimeng Company once again make the headlines of major newspapers.

He Jiahao looked at the report of "Five Lucky Stars" and smiled happily. The movie in his previous life only had more than 20 million, but it doubled. How could he not be happy?

Moreover, this time the movie was released in its own theaters. Yunzhimeng could get 75% of the box office revenue and make a profit of more than 20 million.

"A Ming, I hired someone to manage the brokerage company. Your shares will remain the same. As for the 15 theaters, I will leave them to you. If you think the workload is too small, you can take charge of Taoda Food." He Jiahao said with some guilt. , after all, the brokerage company was established by Qin Haiming.

Qin Haiming became unhappy and said, "I can't manage the brokerage company's affairs well, so there's nothing wrong with handing it over. Leave the theater chain affairs to me. I don't want to go to Taoda Food, because the smell is too strong."

"Well, after the box office arrives, I will withdraw 1 million as reward for your hard work." He Jiahao compensated Qin Haiming.

"No need, the last time the boss asked me to speculate in real estate, I already made more than 5 million." Qin Haiming shook his head, "Boss, I want to invest in a movie and split the money with the company 50-50. What do you think?"

"It's a good idea that you have. Do you have a script? If not, I can provide it." He Jiahao provided the script, which can be said to directly give Qin Haiming money.

"I know the boss has nothing to say to me, but I still want to find a script so that it can be released in my own theaters." Qin Haiming said seriously.

It seems that he is working hard on his own, and He Jiahao can't stop him, so he can only choose to support him. After all, Qin Haiming, his younger brother, has helped He Jiahao a lot.

"Okay, work hard, I will be indispensable for future movie tycoons." He Jiahao said encouragingly.

In fact, He Jiahao really wanted Qin Haiming to invest in real estate, but Qin Haiming did not have this intention, and he was too lazy to persuade him.

"Mr. Zombie", for which Ho Ka-ho provided the script, has been in theaters for a week, and the box office has exceeded 5 million. Director Lin Zhengying has also made a splash and has been reported by the media, making him an unparalleled new director.

Other movies produced by Garbo Pictures have grossed millions at the box office, with no losses and a small profit of millions. This has also made Garbo Pictures a bit famous in the industry. This time " "Mr. Zombie" can bring Garbo Pictures to a higher level and become a medium-sized film company.

Although hundreds of thousands of dividends can't help He Jiahao, it is better than nothing. It can at least cover He Jiahao's living expenses for a month.

The first flagship store of the fashion brand retail company 'Ferrando' is located on the first floor of the High Street shopping mall in Central. The store area is 2,000 square feet. It is a specialty store of the American fashion denim brand Levis. Its products include jeans, casual pants, underwear, etc.

Due to the early investment of 2 million in publicity fees, it became an instant hit as soon as it opened. Many young people poured into the store to shop, including many journalists who were attracted. This way, He Jiahao could have a remaining publicity fee.

Looking at the booming Levi's store, Yu Wanguo kept laughing, as if he saw the money flying into his pocket.

"Business was so good on the first day, are we going to get rich?" Chen Yulian was also a little excited.

He Jiahao sneered, "Business will be better these days, but it can't be so good every day. According to my estimate, if the usual turnover is 200,000, it would be very good, and today's turnover should be It will be over half a million."

"Wouldn't that reduce the turnover several times?" Chen Yulian's excitement suddenly decreased a lot.

"Don't worry, if you open more specialty stores, your turnover will increase." He Jiahao said with relief. If there are not enough customers, just make up the quantity.

"Yeah." Chen Yulian nodded, feeling a little impatient.

"He Sheng, should we immediately raise the money to open another specialty store? Tsim Sha Tsui seems to be good too." Yu Wanguo suggested from the side.

He Jiahao looked at Yu Wanguo and said, "Yu Sheng, don't be anxious. This is not how business is done. The next store can only be opened with the profits from the first store, instead of us raising funds to open it. If there is any unexpected situation, Didn’t we suffer heavy losses?”

Of course he would not agree to raise funds for the next store, because if there is a first store, there will be a second one. If the sales are not good, everyone will have to rush out.

And this is a risky business. People who adopt this method will either build a giant or become a beggar on the street. Most people should go bankrupt.

"." Yu Wanguo thought for a while and felt that this was really the case. Maybe going bankrupt would not have any impact on He Jiahao, but he might have to go out to beg for food.

Chen Yulian's face changed slightly with fright. This was her first career and she couldn't fail easily.

"I'm sorry, I was too anxious. It's better for the business to expand slowly." Yu Wanguo apologized sincerely.

This bit of business is nothing to He Jiahao, it is just a loss of several million, but it only hurts Chen Yulian's confidence and makes He Jiahao reluctant.

Half an hour later, He Jiahao took Chen Yulian out of the store and sent her back to Luotu Clothing Company.

He Jiahao returned to Taoda Food Company to deal with the accumulated affairs.

The doll noodles have begun to make a profit, but the hot pot base is not very popular, and there is a backlog of goods.

Therefore, He Jiahao could only ask people to reduce the production of hot pot base, and at the same time notify him to hold a hot pot base promotion event and sell the inventory first.

The food company is already looking for factories. When He Jiahao has sufficient funds, he will sell the Taoda Food Company's factory land to Huamei Real Estate, or jointly develop it, and the profits will be divided equally.
