173 Mong Kok Centre
Time soon arrived on Tuesday, and in accordance with the agreement with Huo Yingdong, Xu Zhi's three Mercedes-Benz fleet slowly entered the gate of Huo Mansion.
As soon as I got out of the car door, a middle-aged man in his late thirties came over and said, "Xu Sheng, I've known you for a long time. My name is Huo Zhenting. My father asked me to take you in."
"It turns out to be Huo Sheng. I have admired your name for a long time. You are the idol of all men in Hong Kong!" Xu Zhi said with a smile. The person in front of him was Huo Yingdong's eldest son. On September 25 last year, Huo Zhenting married him for 9 months.
Hong Kong Miss Lingling Chu shocked the whole of Hong Kong.
Huo Zhenting smiled and said, "Xu Sheng, please come inside, my father is already waiting!"
"Okay, let's go in!"
This party was actually a gathering of several Chinese-funded tycoons. After Xu Zhi entered, he also saw several people he met at the Hong Kong Governor's Party a few days ago sitting on the sofa in the hall, as well as Comrades Lao Li and Lao Bao.
in.
Huo Yingdong smiled and said: "Xu Sheng, come on, come on, please sit down. Everyone here knows Xu Sheng, so there is no need for further introduction."
Xu Zhi smiled and said: "No introduction is needed, we have already known each other a few days ago."
Not many people came this time. In addition to Lao Bao and Lao Li, there were also Hu Yingxiang from Hopewell Industrial, Chen Zengxi from Hang Lung Group, and Li Shauji from Henderson Group.
After Xu Zhi sat down, Chen Zengxi next to him said: "Xu Sheng, we are discussing something. The MTR Corporation is preparing to auction a piece of land in Yau Tsim District, Mong Kok. Our Hang Lung Group is preparing to participate in the bidding in a joint venture with Cheung Kong Industries and Henderson Group. No.
Do you know if Xu Sheng is interested?"
"Mong Kok?" Xu Zhi thought for a while. The MTR Corporation has just started to build the subway in recent years. Every place it chooses is the most prosperous area. The three major companies bidding this time should be the future Mong Kok Center Building.
territory.
The land of Mong Kok Center was auctioned in 1979. The Hang Lung Group successfully bid for the consortium and reached an agreement with the MTR to build a 22-story building - Mong Kok Center.
Two years later, in 1981, when housing prices in Hong Kong were at their peak, pre-sales of the building were booming, and the entire joint consortium made a net profit of HK$400 million.
Xu Zhi asked: "Of course I am interested in this kind of thing, but I don't know how much stock I can buy?"
Chen Zengxi looked at Li Jiacheng and Li Shauji next to him. It seemed that the three of them had reached a tacit agreement and said: "Xu Sheng can buy 20% of the shares. According to our estimates, the transaction price of this piece of land may be around 300 million Hong Kong dollars. Xu Sheng only needs to take
Just pay 6,000,000 Hong Kong dollars!"
Xu Zhi frowned and said: "6,000,000? Take it out at once?"
Li Jiacheng smiled and said: "Xu Sheng, everyone here knows that you have a lot of cash flow, it's only 6,000,000 Hong Kong dollars, it's nothing!"
Xu Zhidao: "It's nothing, it's just a land acquisition, you don't need to spend all the money!"
Huo Yingdong and Bao Yugang drank tea and looked at the people. After listening to Xu Zhi's words, they both smiled deeply.
Chen Zengxi was silent for a while and said: "It's always more convenient if you have cash!"
"Let's look at bank loans!" Xu Zhi finally understood why these people were so kind and wanted him to join this project!
Although these people are not time travellers, and there will be no major economic fluctuations, it is almost 100% certain that projects in such prosperous areas will make money. The purpose of bringing themselves in is actually to allow themselves to provide a starting capital.
The real estate industry is all about small capital leveraging big leverage. The current market value of the five real estate giants is less than one billion Hong Kong dollars, but they are always operating dozens of large-scale projects worth hundreds of millions or even billions at the same time. The trick is to use large-scale
With bank loans and funds recovered from the pre-sale of the house, the construction company may be in arrears for a period of time when the building is built.
But no matter how small the capital is, it still requires a sum of money. These companies are operating many projects at the same time, and they are obviously unwilling to spend another sum of money to pay for the Mong Kok Center project.
If Xu Zhi invests this money, these companies may use this money to carry out initial operations, and they may still need cash in the follow-up.
Although this project will definitely not lose money, what matters in this era is capital utilization. If you make 100 million, the difference between investing 10 million and investing 1 billion is that one will make money and the other will lose money.
Li Jiacheng smiled and said: "Xu Sheng, Chen Sheng, Huo Sheng invited us to a party today. We can talk about business matters later."
Chen Zengxi nodded and said nothing.
"Okay." Xu Zhi agreed with a smile. If he refused to pay the full amount, he would probably have been excluded.
Huo Yingdong acted as a peacemaker and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. Let's chat casually, whether it's about household matters or business. It doesn't matter. Even if cooperation fails, we are all Chinese and should unite to fight against British capital. As long as we don't
Just fight among yourself!"
Everyone stopped, and Chen Zengxi and others stopped talking about business. Instead, they chatted with several tycoons about household matters.
After a while, several people came, all real estate businessmen.
Seeing that everyone was almost there, Huo Yingdong stood up and said, "I know you may have a lot of questions about my invitation to come here today. In fact, today's gathering has two purposes:
One is an old thing. Everyone gathers together to discuss the general direction of our various businesses in the future, so as not to put our goals on the same ground and fight with each other and hurt our own strength. If everyone is interested in the same piece of land at the same time,
, you can also bid as a joint venture.”
Everyone's expressions didn't change much, and they were still very casual. Obviously this was not the first time this happened, and they had long been used to it.
Huo Yingdong added: "The second thing is to be a matchmaker. The mainland government has opened a new Shekou Industrial Zone in Shenhai City. I think everyone knows that after lunch, Vice President Lin of Xinhua News Agency
I will come over and invite everyone to visit. I hope everyone will give me this face and agree to go to Shekou. I will never force you to invest or not. It all depends on your volition."
"Going to the Mainland?" Many people hesitated immediately. They didn't expect that such a thing would happen today. MacLehose had just invited everyone to attend a party. Although the real purpose was not revealed a word, everyone was excited.
It's a human spirit, who can't see it?
It's only been a few days, and if you go to the mainland in the blink of an eye, you will offend people, and maybe the family business will be affected.
Huo Yingdong added: "I know what everyone is thinking. This trip to the mainland will be kept strictly confidential. If you are interested in investing, it depends on your own wishes whether the information will be made public or not."
Bao Yugang smiled beside him and said: "No problem, I, Bao Yugang, agreed!"
Chapter completed!
