HKTV: How is the Great Owl made?

Obviously, he didn't agree.

He felt that Batistuta looked down upon Lin Yao too much.

If you underestimate Lin Yao, you will suffer a big loss. This has been proven countless times.

Li Bancheng is a very realistic person, and he knows the pros and cons of Lin Yao's move.

"Mr. Li, even if Lin Yao wins over all the influential villagers, it will be ineffective."

"We have the power to control everything. Mr. Hong Kong Governor has already met with me and he promised to provide all conveniences."

"He has tasked Johnson, the first brother of the Chief Secretary for Administration, to cooperate with me in depth. We will definitely win the land this time!"

Li Bancheng adjusted his glasses and said, "The second meeting about that land will be held soon."

"Mr. Batistuta, let's wait and see Lin Yao's reaction before we decide. He is not someone to be trifled with."

After a pause, Li Bancheng continued:

"One more thing, in a few days we will have an inspection team going to the mainland, and I will meet with him."

"I will try to trick him first, and I will contact you as soon as the time comes."

At this moment, a person walked in outside.

"Smit, long time no see, old classmate!"

Batistuta greeted the man warmly.

Li Bancheng also greeted him with a smile.

Schmidt, the president of Swire \u0026 Co., Ltd., is also the key person in this competition for the No. 1 Land King in Saigon.

More importantly, Schmidt and Batistuta are classmates, fellow villagers, and both are from Liverpool.

However, even so, Batistuta and Schmidt never dealt with them.

This time, we sat together for common interests.

"Mr. Batty, Mr. Li, you guys seem to be determined to win this land!"

Schmidt sat down on the sofa, looked at Batistuta and Li Bancheng, and said with a smile.

"Old classmate, we don't know how long we can stay here. Of course we have to make the final layout for the company." Batistuta said with a smile.

In this era, wine paint is not the end for them.

But there is another way of existence.

But these British-funded companies don't know exactly how Dongda and Great Britain will play each other and what the outcome of the game will be.

That's why Batistuta said this.

For British companies in Great Britain, they certainly never want to lose their interests in Hong Kong Island.

"No matter what, the winner must emerge from our three families. This is the only purpose of my coming to see you today."

"My secretary will discuss the specific matters with you. Remember, Hong Kong Island will always belong to us!" Schmidt said.

After saying that, Schmidt left.

Batistuta and Li Bancheng were left confused.

However, his meaning is also very clear, that is, the Taikoo Foreign Guild will form an alliance with the two of them.

"Mr. Li, what did Zhaoji Group say?" Batistuta asked Li Bancheng.

"It has been agreed that Li Zhaoji will not join the Tianyao Group's camp!" Li Bancheng said with his signature smile on his face.

"That's good, this time we can say we are determined to win." Batistuta said happily.

It is true that most of the consortia participating in the bidding have been tied to the chariot of Jardine Matheson, and the only real estate group standing on Lin Yao's side is the Far East Group.

Far East Group is in front of other large real estate consortiums. Portions are much smaller.

What really caught Battista's attention was Lin Yao's Tianyao Group.

Now that Swire Pacific and Zhaoji Real Estate Group have joined his side, Batistotta is full of confidence in winning Saigon Lot 1.

Moreover, Chief Secretary Johnson is also on his side.

Compared with Yihe Matheson, Lin Yao did not have the right time, place and people. He is now just doing some work as a country squire.

That's all!

…

Time flies, and soon it’s the day of the Sai Kung Land King Competition.

At City Hall, in the conference room.

Several large financial groups on Hong Kong Island have been working hard to promote their unique advantages in the past few days.

The final outcome of this Saigon No. 1 Land King project has also become very suspenseful.

Lin Yao, on the other hand, has kept a low profile these days.

At the scene, dozens of reporters stood ready, pointing their guns and cannons at the conference room of the city hall.

Before the bidding meeting began, these reporters discussed in twos and threes in low voices.

"Now it seems that Tianyao Group is out of business. You can see in the newspapers that Jardine Matheson, Swire Pacific, Zhaoji Real Estate Group, and Cheung Kong Industries have all become one."

Yes, even if Taikoo \u0026 Co. does not join, Jardine Matheson and Cheung Kong Holdings can defeat Tianyao Group! "

"Tian Yao Group is wealthy, but its foundation is far inferior to Jardine Matheson. They have been on Hong Kong Island for seventy or eighty years."

"Well, according to inside information, all the ghost guys unanimously support Jardine Matheson."

"That's right, Lin Yao has always looked down upon ghosts."

"I heard that even the governor of Hong Kong dislikes him.

"If Mr. Hong Kong Governor and Sir Molière weren't secretly wrestling with each other, the Tianyao Group would have been bankrupted if the ghost guys joined forces, right?"

There are those who are negative, and of course there are those who are optimistic about Lin Yao.

"Tch, you guys underestimate Mr. Lin too much!"

"If Mr. Lin was killed so easily, he wouldn't be in the position he is now."

…

Reporters were confused and couldn't agree.

In the front row of the conference room, Li Bancheng was discussing softly with Batistetta.

"Mr. Li, our plan has been given to Mr. Johnson, and he knows what's going on. This time, one or two consortiums will definitely be eliminated.

"However, today's meeting is mainly based on the expert group's scoring."

Hearing Batistuta's words, Li Bancheng frowned and asked:

"Didn't Johnson make the decision? What happened?"

Batista said:

"I don't know what happened. The Governor and Johnson haven't told me the bottom line yet. Maybe they are considering it comprehensively."

"But the expert group will definitely give us high scores, even full marks, and you can rest assured about this."

"What I'm worried about is that Taikoo may not be of the same mind as us, and we have to be on guard against them."

"As far as I know, Sir Moliere supports Taikoo."

"However, Mr. Johnson and Mr. Gangdong tend to support us."

What? Didn't your old classmate say yesterday that he wanted to stand in the same camp with us?" Li Bancheng was slightly stunned and asked.

"That's what he said. Who knows what Schmidt really thinks? Everyone is for the benefit."

"You said that Li Zhaoji would stand on our side, but I don't think so. The wisdom of you Orientals can be summed up in one sentence, that is, intrigue and deception."

After saying that, Batista looked at Schmidt on the other side.

At this moment, Schmidt was chatting and laughing with Lin Yao.

His face suddenly changed, and he muttered:

"What on earth is Schmidt doing?"

After a while, Johnson led a dozen heads of departments into the meeting room of the City Hall.

After sitting down, Johnson said directly without any greetings:

"Boss, today's meeting is mainly to listen to the plans reported by the major consortiums."

"We will adopt the method of five to four, and there will be an expert group on site to score. The whole process will be carried out in accordance with the principles of fairness, justice and transparency!"

"Based on the plans of the major consortiums, the expert group's scoring will determine the final four consortiums to enter the final bidding."

As soon as the voice fell, all the consortiums participating in the bidding were quite surprised, except Lin Yao!

The reason is very simple.

When Johnson and his colleagues discussed this matter, Lin Yao had already obtained accurate information and asked Zhang Linwei to develop a corresponding plan.

Fengtang Economic Intelligence Group has surpassed any information consulting company in Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island has more than 100 information consulting companies, which are actually gathering economic intelligence.

In addition to being the world's financial center, Hong Kong Island has another positioning, that is, the global intelligence center.

Not only economic intelligence, but also political, military, and technological intelligence will be exchanged here.

In addition to the Jianghu Group and the Economic Group, Lin Yao's Fengtang now also has a political group and a technological group.

Everyone start reporting their bidding plans. Johnson sat down after collecting them.

Baptiste, the new president of Jardine Matheson, was the first to stand up.

Then, he began to report his new plan after being improved, as well as the expectations of all walks of life in Hong Kong Island for Jardine Matheson.

There were evaluation experts invited by the British Hong Kong government on the scene, a total of 7 people, all of whom were foreigners.

When Batistuta finished his report, the seven ghost experts all showed expressions of approval on their faces, and they were almost ready to applaud.

It was impossible to applaud, as that would be too blatant.

It had to be performed.

"Okay, now please ask the expert group to rate Jardine Matheson, with a total score of 10 points." Johnson announced.

Ten seconds later, the seven ghost experts unanimously gave 10 points.

There was no need to perform this time.

At this moment, Qiu Taishan, the young master of the Far East Group, stood up and raised his own questions.

"Mr. Johnson, according to international rules, shouldn't we wait until everyone has finished their reports before scoring together?"

Johnson seemed to have expected such questions. He looked at Qiu Taishan and said lightly:

"Mr. Qiu, this scoring system is also based on international practices."

"Don't worry, this bidding is very fair, just and transparent!"

"As long as your scores are also high, we will make choices from high to low scores and only eliminate one company."

Hearing what Johnson said, Qiu Taishan subconsciously looked at Lin Yao, and saw Lin Yao's face. He didn't say anything more, so he sat down. Next was the report of Smith from Swire.

Swire did not make any changes to the previous plan, so the report was completed quickly. Next were the CITIC Properties Group and Cheung Kong Holdings.

CITIC Properties Group had a report from Li Shau Kee's son Li Shangmao, while Li Bancheng was reported by his son Li Ju.

These four companies received 50 points, 46 points, 45 points, and 42 points respectively, which can be said to be all high scores. Finally, the report was from Tianyao Group.

Because Far East Group has been tied to Tianyao Group as a whole, Far East Group was not arranged to participate in the report.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Lin Yao.

Lin Yao smiled slightly and nodded to Zhang Linwei.

Zhang Linwei, who was wearing a professional suit and showed a perfect figure, smiled and stood up from her seat.

Nodding to everyone, generous and elegant.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our Tianyao Group's new plan is to increase the budget to 10 billion!"

"We will make every effort to develop Saigon, drive the development of all Saigon towns and fishing villages, and connect with the mainland!"

Boom! ! !

Ten billion!

You should know that even if Jardine Matheson took over this land and developed it, it only prepared 2 billion Hong Kong dollars.

This has exceeded the total investment of Jardine Matheson, Swire, Cheung Kong, and Chiu Kei Real Estate.

How can this be played?

How to bid?

Obviously, no one at the scene expected that Lin Yao would increase the budget, and it was increased to 10 billion at once!

Johnson and the experts were also shocked, and they all opened their mouths.

Then they all looked at Lin Yao who was leisurely smoking a Cuban cigar.

Lin Yao, you kid don't play by the rules!

Although Lei Yingdong did not participate in the competition for Saigon No. 1 Land King this time.

But he still sent his son Lei Zhenting to visit.

When Lei Zhenting, who had a signature middle-parted hairstyle, heard that Lin Yao was going to invest 10 billion in Sai Kung, his hair was so shocked that it was about to get messed up!

Two 10 billion, such a big investment?

It is conceivable how rich Tianyao Group is!

"10 billion to develop Sai Kung? So he can come up with this. Isn't he afraid of losing money?" Schmidt, president of Taikoo, complained to his secretary.

"Use 10 billion to take over this piece of land in Sai Kung?"

"President, Lin Yao is absolutely crazy!!"

"Sai Kung has no infrastructure at all, and the resources of schools and hospitals are very scarce."

"Mr. President, I think Tianyao Group will go bankrupt because of this project."

Schmidt's secretary said to Schmidt.

Li Zhaoji, Li Bancheng, and even Qiu Taishan, the young master of Far East Group, were all puzzled.

Compared with other places in Hong Kong Island, Sai Kung now has no development value at all, and most of them are small fishing villages.

If 10 billion is invested in Hong Kong Island or Kowloon Peninsula, it will be recovered in a few years, and it will be pure profit in the future.

How can there be such a stupid person in the world?

He actually invested 10 billion in Sai Kung.

But think about it, Lin Yao is not a fool, why did he do this?

Li Bancheng's eyes rolled around, he was guessing Lin Yao's thoughts.

But no matter how he thought, he couldn't think of any need for Lin Yao to do this.

Isn't this just a waste of money?

Next, Zhang Linwei briefly talked about the general plan of investing 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in Sai Kung.

Of the 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, 6 billion Hong Kong dollars are used for Sai Kung's infrastructure, including schools, hospitals, tap water, power facilities, and even telecommunications signal towers.

Another 4 billion Hong Kong dollars are used to build 10 high-rise buildings on that piece of land for commercial and residential use.

And this is only the first phase of investment. According to the plan, if there is a need in the future, Tianyao Group will further increase the budget.

As someone who claims to know Lin Yao well, Li Bancheng always feels that Lin Yao has some ulterior motives.

Johnson, who presided over the meeting, felt a little overwhelmed.

He never expected that Lin Yao would suddenly use such a killer move, which completely disrupted his overall plan. (End of this chapter)
