Hong Kong's new giants

In addition to obtaining land through land exchange rights, old real estate, private auctions, and official land auctions, New Times Group has been sought after by some land-owning business owners in the past two years because of its good reputation and ability to grasp the real estate situation.

They took the initiative to contact New Era Group to jointly develop their land, which is a very good cooperation for both parties!

For entrepreneurs, they only have land (the factory has been relocated to the mainland), but they have no experience in real estate development; while New Era Group not only cooperates and takes care of allies, but also has a good grasp of the general trend and can sell houses at high prices.

For New Era Group, they don't need to use land reserves, they only need to take out a small amount of capital as start-up capital, and they can complete a real estate project through loans and sales of off-plan and off-plan houses, which is quite cost-effective.

Lin Zuhui immediately said: "Prepare to release 750 residential units in Scenery Garden by the end of March."

Chen Xiaofen nodded quickly and said, "Okay!"

Sceneway Gardens has a total of 4100 residential units. By the end of March, 750 residential units will be sold. It is estimated that there will be no problem selling 2400 yuan per square foot, and it will be able to return more than 12 billion in one go;

Because Lin Zuhui calculated the average price for this community at an average price of 3500 to 4000 yuan, it will be sold out in three years.

As far as Lin Zuhui knows, Xiangjiang needed more than 90 residential units in the 50s in the previous life, but only 36 residential units were actually manufactured.The demand is still very fierce, but some people cannot afford it!

As the largest real estate company in Hong Kong, Gao Yi, the president of China Real Estate, also reported immediately.

Although there are several reconstruction projects at present, it still does not affect the huge scale of the rental property area of ​​Chinese Land.

Wharf Group's five buildings in Harbor City have not yet been rebuilt, and Times Square has not yet been completed; the same is true for Taikoo City, Taikoo Place has not yet been acquired, and the second phase of Taikoo Center has not yet been completed.

With a net profit of just over 10 billion from rent collection, it is undoubtedly a very profitable real estate company. It should be the number one, surpassing the existence of Wharf.

Next, the senior staff gave reports one after another, and the atmosphere in the conference room was very good.

After the meeting, Lin Zuhui left Liang Zhenxun alone.

"I plan to let New Times Group announce its annual results and distribute dividends in the next year. It will distribute 1 Hong Kong dollar per share, involving 15 billion funds!"

Liang Zhenxun said in surprise: "So much? The dividend is really high, Chang Shi and Sun Hung Kai are probably only half of it!"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "With such a high dividend, we naturally hope that the stock price will skyrocket. In March, we will announce the revaluation of the company's assets, which will make the stock very hot!"

Liang Zhenxun understands that the boss is planning to raise funds, issue bonds, and borrow money on a large scale, and the company may have a new round of expansion.

"Okay, I will definitely arrange it!"

After Liang Zhenxun left, Lin Zuhui smiled slightly.

Since May, he has raised at least 80 billion Hong Kong dollars, the rights issue is only part of the fundraising, and the rest is through the issuance of convertible bonds and borrowing.

Because after he entered the banking industry, it would not be so convenient to borrow money, so he simply made a big one.

From next year (1992), New Era Group will always have a large amount of cash flow in its accounts, and its debt will not be high.Whether it is investing overseas or in the Mainland, it seems to be easy to do.

……

LEIT Group.

Last year (1990), the net profit of the LEIT Group reached 5.8 million, making another brilliant achievement.In the new year, Lin Zuhui plans to start preparations for acquisitions, strive to enter the international fashion field, and improve the quality of the entire group.

Of course, before this, LEIT Group still has a lot of things to do.

In the conference room, Lin Zuhui listened to the reports of various brands, with a faint smile on his face, expressing his satisfaction.

"Crocodile has opened 106 stores around the world, all of which are self-operated stores; among them, there are 36 stores in Xiangjiang, 32 in Japan, and 16 in Southeast Asia... all over Europe, America and Asia."

"Jeanswest currently has 58 stores, and Xiangjiang has 22 stores... all over Europe, America and Asia."

"Giordano currently has 52 stores, 18 in Xiangjiang, and 16 in Taiwan... all over Europe, America and Asia."

"There are 36 stores for IT fashion retail, and 18 stores in Xiangjiang...all over Asia."

"Da Nei Secret Detective...has opened 3 stores in London, initially confirmed the word-of-mouth reputation of high-end underwear, the 'big secret catwalk' will be officially held in July."

"Lukfook Jewellery, currently has 12 stores in Xiangjiang... and is preparing to go public!"

"In addition to the business of the Group, the manufacturing sector currently accounts for 3% of the OEM business..."

After listening to everyone's report, Lin Zuhui said: "Very good, this year we will make persistent efforts! This year our task is still to operate globally. I will also strengthen the group's management and design capabilities, and I will enter the European fashion industry!"

Everyone was surprised at once. Although crocodile shirts, Giordano, and Jeanswest have all entered Europe, they dare not say that they have entered the European fashion industry.

Could it be that you are talking about the underwear brand Ouchi Secret Agent?

For a while, everyone became curious.

Seeing this, Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Naturally, through acquisitions, our company will become a multinational enterprise!"

Everyone suddenly realized that this is what the boss is good at!

Everyone knows that the boss's goal is to build the LEIT Group into the LVMH Group in Asia, and this goal can only be achieved through acquisitions.

But Lin Zuhui actually planned this way, and the current market value of LEIT Group has reached 38 billion.Once the results are announced, coupled with this year's market, there will be no problem with the market value rising to 60 billion.

He will raise funds through a rights issue to prepare for the acquisition funds!

As for the profit of the group, it is kept as a development fund.

After the meeting room was over, Lin Zuhui had a meeting with the president Chen Shiwen alone.

"You go to Europe to upgrade the office into a European headquarters, and recruit elite talents, mainly designers, marketing operations and other talents. Later, I will acquire a European brand as a step in our brand promotion!"

There are indeed many acquisitions of European and American companies by Xiangjiang people. For example, in November 1987, Dickson Poon announced that, with the approval of the French government, he had acquired the head office of the famous French brand Dupont for US$11 million.Dupont company is a brand-name company with a history of more than 200 years, serving the French upper class.

There are too many famous brands in Europe, and Lin Zuhui will naturally not let them go.One advantage of acquiring famous European brands is that they can be introduced to Asia for promotion.

Chen Shiwen immediately said: "Well, I will get ready as soon as possible!"

Chapter 384 [British high-end department store]

London, late January.

In a manor house, the heating inside is very comfortable, in stark contrast to the cold weather outside London.

In winter in this country, people rely on heating to survive.

Lin Zuhui rested his head on Qiu Shuzhen's plump thigh and put his feet on Li Zi's arms, enjoying the rest very much.

Today is Sunday, they only arrived in London in the morning, so naturally they have to go back to Li Zi's manor to rest for a day.

Starting tomorrow, Lin Zuhui will naturally have to work. As for the two women, they are naturally here to travel, and the administrative department of the family office will arrange travel for them.

While massaging Lin Zuhui, Qiu Shuzhen said, "Are you really going to Switzerland for skiing?"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "I've already gone to Switzerland, and I'm taking the two of you with me. Wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity not to go skiing!"

He has never skied before, but life should be enjoyed more!

Qiu Shuzhen immediately said happily: "Okay, I can finally learn another skill!"

She became excited, and Lin Zuhui's eyes jumped immediately.

"Hate!"

This woman, I'm afraid she did it on purpose!

If this is the case, he won't be tired anymore, he gets up, and hugs left and right.

"Anyway, I know that you brought the two of us to quench your thirst!" Li Zi boldly challenged.

This is true, he can't go without meat for ten and a half months!

But it's not entirely true, he really wanted to take a vacation with the two girls by the way.

The temperature in the room is getting higher and higher, making people very hot, as if trying to melt a person.

Lin Zuhui first looked at Qiu Shuzhen's girlish face, which formed a strong contrast with her figure, which is why she is cute and sexy.

This is the second floor, so there is no need to worry about servants coming up to disturb her, not to mention Lin Zuhui will not stop even if disturbed, since he is not a man anyway.

……

The next day.

Lin Zuhui left the villa contentedly. Today he will complete a signing ceremony, that is, to complete the share exchange agreement with the telecommunications department of British Aerospace.

Hearing that Times Communication intends to invest 8 million to 10 billion pounds to develop the UK's telecommunications industry, the government in London welcomed it very much, and the media even publicized it.The non-proprietary telecommunications industry (mobile communication) is an emerging basic industry and a long-term investment industry. Generally, businessmen in London are not very enthusiastic.

Sitting on the convoy arranged by the family office, Lin Zuhui read the newspapers in the UK, hoping to learn about the situation here or find business opportunities.

A piece of news came into his eyes: Europe fell into the trough of economic recession, and the famous British department store HARVEYNICHOLS (Harvey Nichols) with a history of 180 years was also in crisis due to serious losses.

Harvey Nix is ​​one of the three major department stores in the UK. It has 16 stores worldwide, including 8 in the UK.

Don't look at it as a loss-making company, but if it's a profitable company, it's his turn to take over as a Chinese.

Although the department store industry is traditional, there are still 15 to 20 years of spring; what is important is that he wants to develop his own clothing in Europe through this department store industry.

Lin Zuhui quickly took it to heart and planned to investigate it in the next few days.

When he came to Times Communications, Longstead introduced Lin Zuhui: "Boss, this is Charlie, the vice president of British Aerospace, and this is the person in charge of the telecommunications department of British Aerospace..."

After some introductions, everyone sat in the conference room.

Charlie seems to admire Lin Zuhui very much, flattering wildly: "Mr. Lin, you are definitely a legendary businessman, my God, you look so young, and you have already become the richest Chinese man!"

Is this meeting your own fans?Lin Zuhui's first feeling was that.

He only heard that Li Chaoren had a fan in Canada, and he was a government official. That fan hung up Li Chaoren's photo directly in the office, and even shouted to Li Chaoren that even if he invested in a small restaurant, it was a certain person. Province (Canada) honor.

Lin Zuhui said politely: "I'm sorry, our wealth is just stocks, not real wealth. Compared with some old European families, it is far behind!"

Charlie is really a fan of Lin Zuhui, and he criticized those European nobles unceremoniously, saying: "Mr. Lin, those so-called nobles should be far inferior to you! They are just lying under the wealth and glory of their parents. You are a bunch of fat pigs who are not doing business! I have read your news reports, and you are a real self-made rich man, worthy of admiration!"

Lin Zuhui was taken aback for a moment, this man's words are so sharp, isn't he afraid of being troubled by nobles?

Seeing that Lin Zuhui didn't know how to dismiss this fan, Langs quickly said, "President Charlie, can we start signing the contract?"

Charlie nodded and stopped chasing his idol.

However, he was unambiguous in his work. He took the terms clearly and pointed out some ambiguities.

The London side hopes that the equipment of Times Communications will be mainly purchased in the UK, and the two sides have communicated again on this point; they can only be purchased in London first, but it cannot be stipulated that they can only be purchased in London.

In fact, whether it is Times Communications or Hutchison Communications, they are actually management and operation companies. Base stations and communication equipment need to be purchased, and the technical content is not high.Otherwise, how can we call infrastructure!

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

The contract was signed under the witness of lawyers, and it also announced that Times Communications will vigorously develop the telecommunications industry in the UK.Although the investment is 8-10 million pounds, Times Communication only needs [-]% of the funds; and most of the [-]% of the funds are loans.

Next, the two sides participated in a press conference.

Regardless of the weak strength of British Aerospace's telecommunications department, this transaction can only be made after the approval of the British government.

When he came to the press conference, Lin Zuyao was a little surprised. There were so many reporters, perhaps as many as thirty or forty.

Seeing Lin Zuhui walking out, they quickly pressed the shutter, and for a moment it felt like their queen had arrived.

After sitting down, Ronstall said: "Thank you all reporters for participating in this press conference. Just now, Times Communications and British Aerospace signed a cooperation agreement to jointly develop the British telecommunications industry. Take out 8-10 million pounds to invest in the telecommunications industry... this investment is long-term!"

The reporters seemed not interested in Longstead, nor in Charlie, but in the young Lin Zuhui.

During the question-and-answer session, a reporter quickly asked Lin Zuhui: "Mr. Lin, are you very optimistic about the British telecommunications industry?"

Lin Zuhui replied: "It's not optimistic in the short term, but optimistic in the long term. However, long-term investment also requires a lot of risk, because there will be two strong local companies, and there will be new companies joining in the middle. Of course, overall I am Optimistic about the future of mobile communications."

Reporter: "I heard that you are a businessman full of foresight. Can you tell me why you are optimistic about the telecommunications industry? As far as I know, the market for mobile phones and pagers is not big!"

Lin Zuhui said: "Following Moore's Law, the telecommunications industry will undergo rapid and great changes in the future, and the market prospect is very good!"

Reporter: "Can you tell me your opinion in detail?"

Lin Zuhui: "The simple point is the penetration rate. When mobile phones become smaller, more power-saving, and more convenient, we can carry them in our pockets and contact people we want to contact at any time... It is even more necessary to start a business. Less!"

Reporter: "I admit, you are indeed visionary!"

For a while, the press conference really became Lin Zuhui's home game.

Many reporters don't care about this cooperation, but like to interview how Lin Zuhui made his fortune!

How did a 26-year-old young man become the richest man in China from scratch?This is what everyone cares about!

Of course, there were also those who dug holes for him: "Mr. Lin, would you consider immigrating to London?"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "In fact, Xiangjiang is very good. It is the place with the freest economy in the world. Because of such a good place, there is a soil for us Chinese to create wealth!"

As a result, the British are high!

……

That afternoon, Lin Zuhui came to the branch of the family office in London.
