Rebirth: Rising from the Far East
Page 123
Come out from the Governor's Mansion on Hong Kong Island.
The three people who had plain faces all smiled at the same time.
"Yucheng, as you expected, the governor chose to sit on the sidelines and leave the decision-making power to the people." Bao Yugang asked first, "I'm just curious, how did you guess the governor's opinion on the construction of the oil refinery?" manner?"
"It's simple."
Yucheng had deep eyes, and said calmly: "He overestimated the degree of control that the wealthy families of Hong Kong Island have over the people of Hong Kong Island, and also underestimated the economic growth rate of the mainland's development."
He also underestimated my ambition!
Setting up an oil refinery on Hong Kong Island is not as simple as it seems on the surface. The emergence of heavy industry will rapidly increase Hong Kong Island's demand for external raw materials and its dependence on the mainland market.
And this influence is not Yucheng alone, but will spread "[-]" to the entire Hong Kong Island through this oil refinery.
Moreover, the establishment of an oil refinery will inevitably lead to the emergence of a series of subsidiary industries, all of which will impact the absolute core position of Hong Kong Island's original finance and real estate.
In other words, it is to rebuild Hong Kong Island with dots and lines.
As an outsider, Yucheng wanted to completely control Hong Kong Island through finance or real estate in 1990, change Hong Kong Island, and not follow the old path, which can be said to be impossible at all.
There is only one way to break the situation, to break it with force.
It's just that this force is based on the oil refinery as the starting point and the core, launching a counterattack against the old forces on Hong Kong Island.
Of course, Yucheng is also very clear about Wei Yixin's mentality and why he doesn't care whether the refinery can be successfully established.
Because he is not optimistic about the establishment of this refinery at all.
It is not only the obstruction of the old forces, but also the fact that they are not optimistic about the development of oil refineries on Hong Kong Island.
But those judgments were based on what he could see now.
He would never have imagined that the mainland would continue to develop at an annual GDP growth rate of over 8% in the future.
The number of automobiles will increase at a rate of tens of millions every year starting next year. By 2020, it will even surpass the United States and become the world's largest automobile owner with 3.4 million automobiles.
He would never have imagined that in just a few years, the mainland would import a sharp increase in oil imports and become the world's second largest oil importer.
He underestimated the speed of development in the Mainland and underestimated the market potential of the Mainland.
That's why he is so pessimistic about the development of the refinery.
But only Yucheng knows that as long as this oil refinery is established, it will rely on the mainland, rely on the natural harbor of Hong Kong Island, and rely on the special location of Hong Kong Island.
It is bound to become one of the refining centers of the world.
Lijiapo has become the third largest oil refining center in the world just because of the Maliujia Strait.
What's more, relying on the mainland, looking at the three places on both sides of the strait, looking west at the Indochina Peninsula and Hong Kong Island on the Tianzhu Peninsula!
Therefore, Yucheng has never worried about the future development of the refinery.
There is only one thing he is worried about, and that is the next capital war.
"He underestimated the development of the mainland, I understand. You said this before." Bao Yugang was puzzled, "But why did you say that he overestimated the power of the wealthy families in Hong Kong Island to control the people of Hong Kong Island?"
Yucheng explained: "It's 1990 now, not Hong Kong Island in the 80s. One or two famous people can grasp all the wind directions by saying a few words in newspapers or on TV."
Yucheng smiled lightly and continued: "It can be said that there are not many stupid people now, and the common people know it well!"
"The common people are against things that harm their interests, and they are in favor of things that bring them benefits."
"What can the refinery be raised against? It's nothing more than pollution and the air and the environment."
"And these are mistrusts built on opacity."
"Now I, Mr. Huo, and you, Mr. Bao, generously submitted an application to the Governor of Hong Kong Island to build a factory."
Yucheng talked eloquently: "Now the Governor is going to ask the whole Hong Kong Island for their opinions on building an oil refinery. We don't even have to wait for the Hong Kong Island government to make an inquiry. , and publish all the information about our factory.”
"Which company's technology is used, how high the desulfurization rate can be achieved, and how much it exceeds the world's safe emission standards...All of this is announced, and the initiative is in our hands from the beginning to the end. They can take How many points are there to refute?"
"The oil refinery can actually bring huge economic value to the entire Hong Kong Island."
"The reduction in oil prices does not require large-scale imports........"
"Availability of plenty of well-paying jobs."
"How many middle-class intellectuals can be attracted by the increase of special jobs such as chemical engineering and engineers."
"Added output value, additional industries, for the development of Lantau Island, an island that can accommodate another million people, how much impact will this have on the real estate on Hong Kong Island, and the reduction in housing prices alone is the most realistic benefit."
"This is the reconstruction of Hong Kong Island, and it also gives Hong Kong Island a new definition."
"It is no longer just a financial port, not just a real estate city."
"It is a trading port, a resource port, and a heavy industry port!"
"So...after we have told the facts and reasoned with the people of Hong Kong Island, how much power can those wealthy families on Hong Kong Island control? Can they still control the wind direction of the fishing boats on the entire Hong Kong Island as before?"
"Impossible, Wei Yixin underestimated the control power of these wealthy families in Hong Kong Island, and underestimated the wisdom of the people of Hong Kong Island."
"And if the public approves, can those powerful families still object? If they object again, they will become enemies of the entire Hong Kong Island. Of course, I hope that someone will jump out and do this."
"After all, in any subversion, there must be corpses under your feet and blood on your hands."
"Seniors, our hands are still too clean now."
Yucheng's eyes flickered, but his hand didn't stop, and with a random wave, he said coldly:
"At this point, even if the Hong Kong Eagle government reacts, even if Wei Yixin is the governor, there is no way to object."
"Because of Hong Kong Island, the overall situation is settled!"
Clap clap clap!
Huo Donghua and Bao Yugang applauded together.
Huo Donghua smiled: "The reasoning is really clear, no wonder you are uncharacteristically pulling us two old guys to the Governor's Mansion in such a high-profile way, so that's the idea."
Bao Yugang also nodded again and again: "You are an aboveboard conspiracy. You can only see the tricks and dismantle them. If you can't dismantle them, he has to accept them."
"Gao, I didn't expect that after Li Jiacheng, there would still be people who could play this kind of conspiracy to the extreme."
When Yucheng heard the praise from the two seniors, his heart was extremely peaceful.
Because he learned this trick from Li Jiacheng.
Several times forced him to make a move.
Now Yucheng wants to see how the largest landlord on Hong Kong Island will respond? .
Chapter 0166: The war without gunpowder smoke, completely started (please order, customize
The powerful figures disappeared for several days, naturally countless media reporters were very concerned.
And at this point in time, Yucheng actually appeared in the Governor's Mansion on Hong Kong Island, accompanied by Huo Donghua and Bao Yugang.
The news caused an instant sensation.
But then came bigger news.
Yucheng, Huo Donghua, and Bao Yugang jointly applied to the governor to build an oil refinery on Lantau Island!
Setting up a heavy industrial chemical plant on Hong Kong Island?
This is right!
What is Yucheng doing?
Most of the people think this is fake news.
People who come to Hong Kong Island don’t want to invest in real estate, finance, or stocks, but instead build heavy industry factories. This is a serious illness!
But the wealthy class on Hong Kong Island know that this news is absolutely true.
This Yucheng really wants to build an oil refinery.
Isn't this a lot of money and nowhere to spend it?
At this moment, Shi Yadi breathed a sigh of relief in Swire Foreign Bank.
"Oil refinery? Are you sure the source of the news is correct?" Shi Yadi asked in a low voice.
"I'm sure, the governor's secretary-general told me personally. The three people in Yucheng talked with the governor for almost two hours that day, and the talk was about building an oil refinery on Lantau Island."
"Then what did the governor say?" Shi Yadi immediately asked 27.
"The Governor-General said that this resolution should be brought up for public discussion and conform to the will of the people."
"According to the people's will? Hehe, he took out the domestic set!" Shi Yadi smiled and said, "Okay, no matter what this Yucheng wants to do, as long as it doesn't mess with our Taikoo foreign company , before 97, remember that we, Swire Pacific, have only one principle."
"Low-key, low-key and low-key!"
Shi Yadi remembered one thing and asked: "By the way, what reply did Xia Xintai and there have? Is this Yucheng the spokesperson released by the mainland? Does he have any shadow of the mainland?"
This matter is what he is most concerned about, as long as the upper echelons in the mainland do not want to take action against them.
Just relying on this Yucheng alone, they don't pay attention to it.
"I have already replied, Yucheng and the mainland, apart from being in a relationship with the daughter of a military commander, have no background in the mainland, and the mainland has not made a sound to deal with us Taikoo, Taihe let us rest assured."
Shi Yadi's eyelids drooped: "The daughter of the commander of the military region... Forget it, no matter what, we don't want to provoke this Yucheng. If there is any kind of money coming to ask for cooperation, you can say that I am sick. ... Forget it, I will go back to China for a while."
The domestic he said naturally refers to the eagle country.
After so many years in Hong Kong Island, he has a behemoth in charge of Swire Pacific.
How could he fail to see that once the oil refinery's decision is announced, it will definitely cause a storm in Hong Kong Island.
Those real estate tycoons will not allow any heavy industry factories to appear on Hong Kong Island.
Pollution is a minor matter.
If Lantau Island is developed, how will they sell the land they stockpile and their high-priced residential areas?
As for Swire Pacific, why not worry?
Bao Yugang, who holds Wharf and Wheelock, doesn't care.
Because the real estate in their hands is purely commercial real estate, and all of them are in the core area of Hong Kong Island.
Real estate has never been at the core of their business.
But compared to real estate giants such as Henderson Land, Cheung Kong, and Hutchison Whampoa.
It's true that commercial real estate is their mainstay, but residential areas and land development rights on Hong Kong Island are their biggest economic lifeline!
What's more, if the Yucheng Oil Refinery is built.
Some of their trading profits will drop sharply.
After all, the natural gas and oil imports of the entire Hong Kong Island are in their hands.
These are all the right to speak, and they are all monopoly transactions.
How could these gains be given up.
Therefore, the oil refinery in Yucheng really violated the interests of too many people.
A war is inevitable.
Seeing this clearly, Shi Yadi didn't want to get involved in this turmoil because she stayed on Hong Kong Island.
For him, it doesn't matter whether Hong Kong Island will be polluted or not, what labels it will have in the future, and what kind of establishment it will be.
Just make sure his interests are not violated.Just make sure that Taikoo is still in his hands.
Everything else doesn't concern him.
After all, three of the four major foreign firms are his lessons learned.
But when Shi Yadi was about to run back to Lundun to take refuge, the Li family mansion was in a state of horror at the moment.
The Li family mansion mentioned here does not refer to Li Jiacheng but Li Zhaoji.
His Henderson Land is one of the largest real estate development companies on Hong Kong Island. Its real estate involves commercial buildings, residential buildings and hotel groups.
In addition to the real estate industry, the Lee Shau Kee family also operates the energy industry.
Natural gas, oil, heating, intermediary gas, gas stations, etc. are all his company's businesses.
It can even be said that their Li family has monopolized the entire energy import industry on Hong Kong Island.
Just relying on providing energy for Hong Kong Island and selling energy every year, their Li family can earn tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars.
Now, once the refinery is completed, it will undoubtedly have the greatest impact on the Li family.
