Hong Kong's new giants

"Well, although the price is high, at least it's not a loss at the current price, so it's a long-term investment."

"Okay. What's the boss' opinion on the architectural design of No. 1 May Road?"

Chen Bin knows that the boss likes these high-end properties, and he is also an excellent designer.

Lin Zuhui thought for a while, and said: "I have inspected the land, and my opinion is that the design of the housing estate and the materials used in the building should be outstanding masterpieces. The residents' clubhouse is luxurious, and there are all kinds of recreational facilities. There are elegant lobby seats. Each unit overlooks Victoria Park and has a panoramic view of the Hong Kong and Kowloon Straits.”

A work of ambition!

The entire Mid-Levels can only accommodate a dozen luxury residential building projects, and New Times Group has only developed the third building of Ligende Court (the highest residential building in the world), and No. 1 May Road is the third building after Diligende Court. Seat's successor masterpiece.

At this time, the rights and interests of the second and third buildings of Diligende Pavilion are still in the hands of New Times Group and Hengjin Real Estate (3:7 shareholding), and the investment in this project has multiplied many times.

Although the cost per square foot of May Road No. 1 will be as high as 8000 yuan, Lin Zuhui guessed that by the end of 1996, the price would be around 15000 yuan.A total of 16 square feet of residential floor space can be built, and its value was about 25 billion at the peak of Jiuqi, which is very profitable.

During the Asian financial crisis, Xiangjiang Real Estate fell by 5% to 6% (average standard. Even the price fell from 5 million to 1.5 million).

Therefore, before the financial crisis, Lin Zuhui would sell part of the rights and interests in Block 1 of Diligende Court and No. [-] May Road.Otherwise, how to buy it back cheaply after the financial crisis.

Chen Bin immediately said: "Okay, I will definitely find an excellent designer to make this project another benchmark luxury housing project in the mid-level area."

Lin Zuhui said with satisfaction: "Well, luxury housing is the main real estate that will rise in the next few years, and the growth rate is greater than that of ordinary housing. Therefore, we don't need to worry about making less money from this project."

In fact, it is because Lin Zuhui himself likes mansions, just like children who collect toys, he also likes to collect mansions, mansions, office buildings, shopping malls, shops, etc.

He is not interested in ordinary residences, all of his hands are luxury properties. He especially likes to collect the top floors of luxury mansions.

Maybe before 2015, he will sell most of the properties in his hands, and only keep some of the best ones for gifts to his children or new lovers.

……

On the weekend, Lin Zuhui's family came to the villa in Shek O for vacation. The completion of this villa began at the end of last year and took 5 years.This villa covers an area of ​​2.2 square feet, with southeast sea views, gardens, and swimming pools.

The villa is located on a hilltop, with a view of Shek O Bay from the lawn, and a tennis court was built in the middle of the mountain not far from the villa.

The family had a great time in the villa here. Shek O is far away from the city and crowds, with fresh air and a quiet environment. It is a holy place for vacation. There are only 23 independent mansions in this area, and the number of independent mansions is not increasing or decreasing. The owner committee attaches great importance to the residents The status and identity of the people - either rich or expensive, Lin Zuhui won the bungalow here in the early years, and immediately started the reconstruction.

There are 21 registered members of the Lin family, the head of the family, the Eight Immortals, and the Twelve Sons; this year, two more people will be added, namely Qiu Shuzhen and Lin Zixia.

There are also many people who are not on the list, reaching 6 people, and this year there will be 4 more people, namely Monica, Li Zhi, Zhang Min, and Zhou Huimin.

Lin Zuhui does not regret making too many people. He feels that his excellent genes should contribute more to mankind. Lin Zuhui's family should strive for more ZB families to make greater contributions to the business of the earth.

As for scientists, if you have money, you can train more scientists. Obviously, being a ZB scientist has a better future.

In the Shi'ao villa, because there are too many children, Lin Zuhui feels that it is not convenient to go anywhere-he is intimate and close to the girls, and feels like being watched.

It looks like the villa is big, but it can't stand the crowd!

Walking to the side of the two pregnant women, Lin Zuhui said: "I have arranged my private jet to send you to the United States, where you can give birth with peace of mind. I will come to accompany you every month."

Thinking of parting, Lin Zixia said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you have to give birth in the United States, Xiangjiang's conditions are so good? Besides, didn't you say that you are not afraid of exposure of your relationship with me? Now everyone in Hong Kong does not know that I belong to you."

The last time she gave birth in the United States, Lin Zixia admitted it. After all, the two were worried that their relationship would be exposed suddenly and they would be condemned by public opinion too much.But after so many years, Hong Kong people are used to it.Based on this factual relationship, Lin Zixia was somewhat dissatisfied with giving birth in the United States.

Lin Zuhui immediately said: "What do you know? According to the eagle sauce law, if you want to run for president, you must be born in the United States. I am thinking about the future of the children in your womb."

Lin Zixia broke her mouth immediately, and said: "If you are not a positive type, you will know how to fool people. If outsiders know that the richest man in their eyes looks like this, they will be shocked."

Seeing that there was no child around, Lin Zuhui immediately took advantage of Lin Zixia, and teased: "I am always a child, and I am a child who has not been weaned, don't you know?"

The two women laughed one after another, and broke Lin Zuhui's words one after another.

After a long time, Lin Zuhui said seriously: "Since I have immigrated, it is best for my children to be born in the United States. As for whether to run for president in the future, that is another matter."

Lin Zixia nodded seriously, she wasn't really dissatisfied, she was just being coquettish.

Qiu Shuzhen said from the side: "That's miserable. The eldest of the two of us was born in Xiangjiang, so there is no hope of running for the president of Yingjiang. I just don't know that there is no hope for a boy in my belly." After she finished speaking, she touched her belly.

Lin Zuhui immediately said: "I hope it's a girl, so that I can make a good match for you."

This is a fact, his women are more likely to have boys, it is his own genes.After all, like Qiu Shuzhen's three daughters in her previous life, Li Zi's three daughters, and Lin Zixia's two daughters (biological), but now the first birth of the three is a boy.On the contrary, Wang Zuxian's first child was a daughter, but then he made up the word "good", and Cai Ning also made up a word "good". Wang Lingyin and Guan Jiahui are directly two boys.

Qiu Shuzhen rarely refuted Lin Zuhui: "I think it's a boy..."

Lin Zuhui could only smile, and then said: "Just relax!"

Then, Lin Zixia said: "Shuzhen, go back to Los Angeles to live with me, the seaside is very humid."

Guan Jiahui and Lin Zixia both make their homes in Beverly Hills, while Qiu Shuzhen's villa is in Santa Monica Beach.

Qiu Shuzhen hesitated, and said, "There are too many children, and they are very noisy. It's okay to live for two or three days a week..."

Lin Zuhui immediately said "graciously": "If Shuzhen lives in my Beverly Villa, where can you get together occasionally!"

Qiu Shuzhen hesitated again, and said, "Where is the boss?"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "You call her the boss, does she still mind?"

Only then did Qiu Shuzhen agree.

In fact, Lin Zuhui and Wang Lingyin have not gone to Europe and the United States at the same time, but only to the mainland at the same time.For a long time, Lin Zuhui adhered to the ancient saying that "father and son are on different boats", and he and Wang Lingyin avoided going abroad at the same time.As for going to the mainland, he feels more at ease, this is a psychological factor.

Wang Lingyin is naturally very supportive of this kind of thing. For her, it is the same as where Lin Zuhui went. What's more, the great rivers and mountains of the motherland are also very beautiful now.In addition, Wang Lingyin's personality is very "big woman", and she will consider everything for the big family, provided that her line takes the greatest benefit.

Chapter 5 and Seven [Combination of Chinese and Western]

Friday, April 6.

Lin Zuhui took a rented private jet and set off from Xiangjiang to Paris, France.Unlike other business tycoons, his private jets only have women, and he has no elites.

Of course, a group of elites accompanied Lin Zuhui on inspections every time he went abroad, but they always arrived in advance.

If Lin Zuhui's Boeing 747 private jet is put into use, he can travel with his elites and arrange them on the first floor without disturbing Lin Zuhui's life.If Lin Zuhui is in a happy mood, he can have a meeting with everyone in the conference room.

In fact, Lin Zuhui attaches great importance to efficiency and is very willing to delegate power to his subordinates; he is generally responsible for the general direction and looking at the results.

This is a private plane modified from Boeing 737, which belongs to American Airlines, so it has a very big advantage in the route. Almost when Lin Zuhui takes off, the route permit will be completed soon.Of course, the price is also very good. With the three-year lease funds, you can already buy a new aircraft.Lin Zuhui doesn't need to worry about anything, the captain and stewardess are provided by American Airlines and pay their salaries.

On the plane, Lin Zuhui, Guan Jiahui, and Li Jiaxin tasted the red wine from the Luchen Family Manor, feeling extremely happy.While Lin Zuhui was in a happy mood, he also had a trace of expectation.What I look forward to is not to complete the feat with Liangmei on the plane, but to look forward to this trip to France.

This trip to France will not only bring you career gains, but also the supreme enjoyment of the combination of Chinese and Western.It has been communicated beforehand that Guan Jiahui, Li Jiaxin, and Monica will spend a wonderful weekend with Lin Zuhui in the castle of the Luchen Family Manor.

He didn't force it, he had already consulted the opinions of the three of them beforehand, and used his power to get everyone's consent—to meet.As for what you can do when you meet, it's time to test Lin Zuhui's level. 'Pan Lu Deng Xiaoxian' is not called for nothing.

Seeing Lin Zuhui's gaze fixed on the four American flight attendants from time to time, Guan Jiahui quit, and said softly, "What are you looking at? You promised us that you can't have thoughts about the flight attendants."

Li Jiaxin also became nervous immediately, and immediately said in a united front: "Yes! You can't spend less time with us, and you are not allowed to mess around."

Although being protested by his 'wife', Lin Zuhui still said calmly: "A man keeps his promises, how could I lie to you?"

The two women suddenly had nothing to say. If they refuted it, wouldn't it mean that they would not give themselves a man's face, and it would be easy to make fakes come true.

Therefore, Guan Jiahui had no choice but to say: "I see, you value love and righteousness. It's been nine years and you haven't disliked me as an old man." After finishing speaking, the woman pretended to be sad on purpose.

Good guy, this woman has become a genius, and everyone knows Lin Zuhui's weakness.Although Lin Zuhui is passionate, he is not sentimental and pays more attention to feelings.It can be said that if he is a machine that can run 24 hours a day, then none of the women who have been with him will be able to run away.And the ones that stayed were all he invested in, so they were serious.

Therefore, when Guan Jiahui pretended to be sad, Lin Zuhui immediately surrendered.

He came to Guan Jiahui's side, put his arms around the woman and said, "What are you thinking? Let me look at the stewardess. It's a man's nature, but I have a bottom line. Besides, you promised me that you will come to cosplay later."

Guan Jiahui suddenly changed her sad expression, like a chameleon, she turned into a charming one, with her arms around Lin Zuhui's neck, she said coquettishly, "We will satisfy you whatever you want!"

Nice!

Lin Zuhui looked at the delicate beauties and was very tempted. He has been with these women for nine years, and there may not be as many other people as husband and wife in one year, so everyone is still in love.

Seeing this, Guan Jiahui let go of her hands, and then deliberately lifted the hem of her skirt, revealing her beautiful black silk legs. Everyone knew Sima Zhaozhi's heart; Once pinched, it can turn red.

Lin Zuhui coughed, and then drank the wine calmly. Although his eyes could not help but wander between black and white, he was trying to stabilize his mind.

Guan Jiahui was still smart, she patted Li Jiaxin's jade leg and said, "Don't worry, others are thinking about the trip to the Luchen family's castle!"

Li Jiaxin pursed her lips and said helplessly: "Absurd man!"

They are also curious why Lin Zuhui is getting more and more powerful, and whether this man can still evolve.

During the one-day and one-night journey, four American stewardesses paid close attention to Lin Zuhui, the world's richest man. They thought that the richest man would go to Wushan with his two lovers, but they didn't expect that other people were really calm.

Therefore, they even slandered Lin Zuhui in private. Although he is romantic, his ability is limited; in such a wonderful environment, he did not do wonderful things. Everyone agreed that Lin Zuhui may have a handsome face for nothing, but his body is not so strong.

At Paris International Airport, Lin Zuhui and his party did not choose to get off the plane, but welcomed Monica's boarding, and continued to fly towards Bordeaux.

The three women stared at each other, feeling very embarrassed for a while, but Lin Zuhui immediately played his true nature as a man and mobilized the atmosphere from it.Fortunately, before this, Lin Zuhui had already communicated with them alone, and this time it was just a trip (a lie), so everyone quickly chatted with each other in English.

As for women, what we can talk about is fashion and taste, and Lin Zuhui's women are even more outstanding in these aspects.So for a while, the three girls really chatted.

Everyone is also looking forward to this destination. It is a second-class wine estate in the Bordeaux region. It has a history of 330 years and enjoys a high reputation in the world.

There is also the castle in the manor, which makes everyone look forward to it.

While the three women were chatting, the four American flight attendants also had a 'quarrel'.

"You see, Mr. Lin can make the three ladies get along well, and there is even an unusually beautiful European, which means that he must be very powerful."

"If it's great, then why didn't he stay indifferent on the plane? It takes one and a half hours to fly from Paris to Bordeaux, which is enough for them to enjoy a wonderful journey."

"Could it be that one and a half hours is not enough?"

Everyone gasped, is this possible?

……

After a 30-hour journey, Lin Zuhui and his party finally arrived at the Luchen Family Manor.

Ian, the vice president of LEIT Group, and Cruise, the president of Luchen Family Manor, greeted everyone at the castle.

The Chateau Roussen is located in Margaux, a well-known boutique production area in the Médoc on the left bank of the Bordeaux region, and its castle is not as tall as imagined, it is also a European country house, so to speak.Of course, the castle is still very clean. As for the appearance, it is because of the need to protect the ancient buildings.

"Boss, you are tired from the journey, do you need to rest for a night before inspecting the winery and vineyard?" Ian asked.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "We are flying in a private plane, and our bodies have already rusted on the plane. It's still early in the morning. Let us visit the castle and winery, and then inspect the nearby vineyards."

Hearing that it was a private jet, the management here couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It really is the richest man in the world, really rich.It's not that France didn't stop the transaction this time, but that it couldn't hold back Lin Zuhui's banknote ability.

First of all, Latour was in the hands of the British, and the British planned to sell it to Harvey Department Store at a high price, so the French had to stop it desperately;

Secondly, Ian bought a lot of advertisements in the French media for public relations. For example, red wine in the Bordeaux region needs to go to Asia, and the Rouchen family estate needs a new large investment.

Finally, there is the economic problem of France, which makes them have to consider the importance of opening up Asia, especially through Xiangjiang, and then enter the mainland in the future.

It can be said that the original owner of the Luchen Family Manor very much hoped to cash out and sell it, because the red wine estate is really not profitable, and there are many rules in the Bordeaux area.

During the inspection, Lin Zuhui asked: "President Cruise, for our additional investment of 1500 million US dollars, I would like to know what changes have you made?"

Cruise is not the original president, but a senior talent in the Bordeaux area, hired by the LEIT Group with a lot of money.

The purchase price of Luchen Family was 7500 million U.S. dollars (5000 million pounds). After the acquisition, Lin Zuhui’s request was to carry out drastic reforms, so he not only injected 1500 million U.S. dollars in capital, but also asked Ian and others to hire high salaries from the Bordeaux area. senior talent.

Cruise said earnestly: "Including renovating the wine cellar, adopting a smaller capacity fermenter and separately fermenting wine grapes from different plots, optimizing the drainage system of the vineyard and replanting vines, etc. A series of measures..."

Lin Zuhui immediately said: "Then the funds must be insufficient?"

Cruise nodded and said, "There should be a lot of gaps, but the Luchen family's wine cellar still has wine worth 1.8 million US dollars..."

Lin Zuhui immediately said: "Except for the old customers in Europe and the United States, and as the reserve of the manor, I will purchase all the rest personally!"

Hearing what Lin Zuhui said, Cruise said with a good impression: "BOSS is really a boss who understands Bordeaux. Bordeaux is sold to foreigners every year. After most of the acquisitions, they did not consider the old European and American customers. Feelings, I canceled the supply without authorization, so that I lost many loyal old customers.”

Lin Zuhui smiled and said: "This is what it should be. For now, Asians don't really understand red wine, so I hope that the Luchen Family Manor will continue the previous supply channels. If there is any surplus, I will buy it privately. Or sell to Asia."

Cruise immediately asked: "If the boss doesn't have a good wine cellar, we can prepare one for you here. This is the right you should enjoy."

In essence, LEIT Group is the wholly-owned shareholder of Luchen Family, but in order to reduce unnecessary troubles, LEIT Group and Harvey Department Store try to avoid appearing in the company of Luchen Family as investors.

Of course, in terms of the company's general policy, the Luchen family is still a part of it, such as the acquisition of wineries in Australia and New Zealand in the future. At that time, the red wine/white wine department of the LEIT Group will be the leader of these subsidiaries.

The purpose of Lin Zuhui's acquisition of the Luchen Family Manor is that he can control the source of products after the inland market expands in the future.At the same time, the acquisition of Luchen Family is equivalent to enhancing the intangible value of LEIT Group.

After taking a quick look at it, Lin Zuhui and the girls returned to the castle, intending to spend this weekend.

Chapter 5 and eight [circle exposed]

At night, in the castle of the Luchen Family Manor, Lin Zuhui and his three daughters are enjoying a candlelight dinner, French foie gras, filet mignon, caviar, and the authentic vintage red wine of the Luchen Family Manor (1988).

The management of the Luchen Family Manor is extremely strict. If the quality of the grapes is not good that year, all the grapes will be classified as second-brand red wine, which means that there will be no genuine Luchen Family in that year.The original brand of the Rauzan Manor: Chateau Rauzan-Segla; the second brand of the Rauzan Manor: Segla (Little Rauzan Family)

After the LEIT Group spent a huge amount of money to acquire the Luchen family manor, it injected a large amount of money to start a thorough reform. Of course, the reform plan was determined by the master talents in the Bordeaux area.If it used to be a classical brewing method, it is now a new style brewing method.There is no need to consider whether it is successful or not, after all, this is a reform plan from a French master winemaker; if it is successful, it will be more competitive.

Monica tasted the red wine and said emotionally: "I like this castle so much, can I come here for vacation anytime in the future?"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "You can come anytime! Speaking of which, the castle here is very big, and I want to develop tourism!"

The three women protested one after another, thinking that too many people should not be allowed to destroy the environment here, which means that you are not short of money.
