Hong Kong's new giants

At this time, all the bigwigs in Xiangjiang will choose this way. After all, Xiangjiang is everyone’s home base; Xiangjiang is a free trade port, and funds can reach any place in the world at any time. It is convenient to invest. This is the reason why many rich people are reluctant to leave.

Most of the Hong Kong millionaires who have really immigrated are from poor families or fruitful backgrounds, and they are worried about being liquidated.

"dong dong"

"Come in"

Liang Zhenxun walked into Lin Zuhui's office respectfully, and then sat on the sofa. Secretary Lin Zuhui poured tea for him.

"Boss, Ritz-Carlton's funds are all paid off, all using bank loans... The company's total debt has increased by 130 billion Hong Kong dollars, reaching 350 billion Hong Kong dollars... The company's cash flow is currently 92 billion Hong Kong dollars." He reported the company's Financial situation, for the boss's reference.

Lin Zuhui listened and thought at the same time, this year's overseas investment is very large:

Amazon Shopping Center spent 6.8 million US dollars to acquire a company with 10 shopping malls, and plans to upgrade and reopen;

Langham Hotel Group spent a total of 12 billion US dollars to pay for the Ritz-Carlton Hotel and develop 4 Langham Hotels (five-star);

The securities department of New Times Group invested 12.5 billion US dollars in the British securities industry;

New Era Group paid dividends of US$5 million in March to pay dividends to investors;

New Times Group allocated US$5 million to New Times Group (Huaxia) for investment. All projects in the Mainland have already spent 160 billion Hong Kong dollars, with a total investment of 700 billion Hong Kong dollars.

These expenditures alone are as high as 320 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is terrifying.After deducting the loan of 130 billion, the cash flow of 190 billion was also spent.

"The cash flow is a bit low, but there is no need to worry! The airport and railway terminal is expected to invite tenders at the end of the year, and we can get back the funds in time!"

Liang Zhenxun nodded and said, "The cash flow at the end of the year is expected to be more than 180 billion Hong Kong dollars, if there is no large expenditure!"

The airport and railway terminal is about 4 hectares, which is 36 square feet. The Hong Kong government may adopt a bidding situation, but it is certain that the price will easily exceed 200 billion, and 400 billion is not a problem. The total investment should be [-] billion Hong Kong dollars.

"So be it!"

"Ok"

This year, New Era Group has brought 45 billion non-recurring profits, and now foreign exchange and Nikkei have risen a lot, so it is not suitable for investment. If it falls a little, it is still very dangerous.When Octopus Bank and Hengjin Investment bought earlier, after all, they were all bottoms that Lin Zuhui was familiar with, and the safety factor was very high.

It is not that New Era Group does not have the ability to raise money. If it issues bonds, it is almost a hot commodity; if it spins off a listed subsidiary, it can cash out a lot.

But obviously, there is no need at the moment.

Chapter 575 [Take your son to play cosplay]

Two days later, Hong Kong's "Da Gong Bao" immediately published an editorial, refuting the "death theory" of "Fortune":

"Some of the reasons they cited were fabricated out of thin air, and some were confounding black and white and ignoring the facts. They are really not worth refuting. So what is the future prospect of Xiangjiang? The "XX Law" has clearly stipulated that "one G and two Z" will be implemented for Xiangjiang. Hong Kong's socio-economic system and way of life will not change, maintain Hong Kong's status as an international financial, trade, and shipping center, and allow Hong Kong people to govern Hong Kong, so that the enthusiasm and talents of Hong Kong people can be fully utilized. It will be damaged, and it will get a broad space for activities. It is true that Xiangjiang will encounter challenges in the process of development, but as long as the established policy is adhered to, Xiangjiang’s return to the motherland will be the beginning of a new prosperous period for Xiangjiang.”

At the same time, rich people such as Lin Zuhui also refuted the views of "Fortune" one after another, stabilizing the sentiment of Hong Kong citizens; especially Lin Zuhui's articles greatly increased the confidence of Xiangjiang citizens in all aspects, and the world's richest man was fully convinced.

Later, with the enthusiastic support of the director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, 20 Hong Kong businessmen each donated 500 million Hong Kong dollars led by the Zhengs and his sons, Lin Zuhui and Li Ka-shing, and established the "Hong Kong Better Tomorrow Fund" purely for public relations, with a fund of 1 million Hong Kong dollars , Zheng Jiachun served as the chairman of the foundation.Other members include He Hongsheng, Lin Baixin, Run Run Shaw, Zeng Xianzi and other business leaders.

The foundation published a full-page advertisement, and in the giant photo, 22 members of the foundation declared: We "have the same stand, and all of us are for Xiangjiang".The IMF has two characteristics: one is non-political and the other is non-profit.

"The future development and prosperity of Xiangjiang is the immediate concern of Xiangjiang people."

"Today we stick to our position and join hands to create the 'Heung Kong Tomorrow Better Fund' - a non-profit and non-government organization, the purpose is to gather strength and build confidence so that Hong Kong can continue to maintain an international business and financial center after [-]. Shipping leadership."

"We need all of us to unite as one. The business community, the government, labor and industry leaders as well as every Xiangjiang person should do their best to contribute to the present and future brilliant achievements of Xiangjiang."

"Let us work hard for a better tomorrow with the spirit of self-improvement."

Some members of the public commented:

"A group of businessmen who have made great profits set up a non-profit organization to help Xiangjiang to make greater profits in the future. This logic is extremely distorted at first glance, but it is actually a motif that has been understood by Xiangjiang's prosperous people for many years."

This motif is the prosperity of Xiangjiang, which is the concern of all Xiangjiang people.If these businessmen who have made great profits cannot continue to make profits, it will really mean that Xiangjiang has "dead".

This seems to be a rule, whichever country or region has more rich people will have a prosperous economy and a higher average living standard for its residents.

Although the "Heung Kong Tomorrow Better Fund" advertisement has caused controversy, its influence is definitely greater than that of the "Fei Peng Xuanfeng" which has gradually weakened.

……

North Point, Media Building.

The Ninth City held a "Pokémon" game conference in a large conference room, and Nintendo Xiangjiang Agency also participated.

Gao Kelin, president of The Ninth City, and Li Xinglong, acting general manager of Nintendo Xiangjiang, demonstrated the fun of the "Pokémon" battle mode on the rostrum, attracting a group of people to watch, video, and take pictures.

After playing a game, Gao Kelin put down the GB game console and announced excitedly: "The Ninth City has produced the second high-quality world-class game. The sales volume of the "Resident Evil" we released in June has exceeded 80. Ten thousand sets, and this "Pokémon" is believed to be able to achieve better results..."

All of a sudden, Xiangjiang's media showed incredible expressions. Everyone was thinking, isn't Xiangjiang the soil of real estate, trade, finance, and shipping?

When did Xiangjiang have such a powerful game software development company.

A reporter asked: "President Gao, does the success of The Ninth City mean that Xiangjiang can also become a game research and development center?"

Gao Kelin replied seriously: "I think there is no problem at all. As long as your product is good, gamers around the world will pay for you."

A reporter asked: "Does Ninth City intend to become a worldwide game software development company?"

Gao Kelin said: "Currently, The Ninth City has nearly a hundred game software developers. I believe we will be able to achieve satisfactory results for the head office and shareholders."

A reporter asked: "So, the game industry is also a part of Mr. Lin Zuhui's 'cultural port'? As far as I know, a game studio only needs about ten R&D personnel. Nearly a hundred game software developers Staff, does it mean that the Ninth City is still researching a lot of games?"

For a moment, everyone concentrated on the reporter's question.All the news about Lin Zuhui is what the reporters are keen on and the citizens like to watch.

Gao Kelin said calmly: "The game industry should be a part of 'Cultural Revitalization of Hong Kong'. Our Ninth City is also committed to developing more game products. At the same time, we call on talents and companies with the ability to Calm down, don't be obsessed with making quick money, and strive to contribute to the Xiangjiang game industry."

Although there are nearly a hundred game software engineers in The Ninth City, many of them are college students who just graduated from Xiangjiang, and the company cultivated them as a talent strategy.

After all, even if the two games that have been developed earn a profit of more than 1 million yuan, the ninth city may not be able to make a little money.

The Ninth City is still developing the online versions of "Legend" and "Paradise". Of course, the online games are still in the secret research and development stage, and there are still some technical difficulties.

However, The Ninth City has two major advantages. In terms of technology, Activision Blizzard has assisted it, and Lin Zuhui has personally provided some opinions on game design.

For example, "Legend", Lin Zuhui almost gave a lot of references - the siege station system, multiplayer online games, through the perfect combination of the competitive factors of strategy simulation games and the role growth of role-playing games, it reflects the virtual world full of reality and presence. Reality.Precisely, these are the guiding ideologies that the game development team needs.

As for the details, Lin Zuhui gave more, such as Taoist, Mage, Warrior three occupations in "Legend", as well as advanced occupations, skills such as small fireball, poisoning, lightning... He gave a lot of reference opinions, so that The R&D team needs to slowly develop technology and art.

a store.

"Boss, do you have a GB game console? Do you have the "Pokémon" game software?"

"Yes, yes!"

Soon, there was also a trend of games in Xiangjiang.

Of course, more citizens have noticed that both "Resident Evil" and "Pokémon" are products of the game development company of The Ninth City; Manke SHOW's signature comic works.

"Mr. Lin Zuhui is indeed my idol. He has laid out too much. From now on, I will be the witness and admirer of 'Cultural Revitalization of Hong Kong'."

"Cultural revitalization of Hong Kong is an important policy of Hong Kong. No one is more suitable than Mr. Lin Zuhui to do it. It is even blunt to say that the Hong Kong government's coming to Hong Kong is not half as successful as Mr. Lin Zuhui."

For a time, 'Cultural revitalization of Hong Kong' once again boosted the confidence of Hong Kong citizens.

In fact, as a shareholder of Lin Zuhui's listed company, he has given unprecedented support from the very beginning; whenever Lin Zuhui wants to enter a new field, the stock price of his listed company will always rise. In the eyes of investors, Lin Zuhui is omnipotent business prodigy.

For example, New Era Group acquired the Ritz-Carlton Hotel at a price of US$18 billion, which is more than [-]% higher and can be called a sky-high price.

However, the market value of New Era Group rose by 3 points on the day the news broke, and continued to rise thereafter.

In the eyes of investors, the reorganization of Langham Hospitality Group is a perfect plan, and under the leadership of Lin Zuhui, Langham Hospitality Group will become the world's largest hotel group and exist at the same level as the large American hotel groups.

This is the charm of Lin Zuhui. Because of this, New Times Group spent tens of billions of investment this year, and its market value has also skyrocketed by 2700%, which has reached 9000 billion Hong Kong dollars.You know, the Hang Seng Index is only around 10 points, an increase of 15% to [-]% from the beginning of the year.

……

Saturday.

The first "Xiangjiang Animation Festival" was held at the Wanchai Convention and Exhibition Center, attracting comic fans from home and abroad and from Hong Kong.

Obviously, this was suggested and supported by Wanhui Comics Club, and it was also the order that Lin Zuhui gave Wanhui Comics in the first place. "Cultural Hong Kong" is a systematic project in all aspects. Lin Zuhui is only trying to do a lot of work now. He has not had a very systematic discussion with the Hong Kong government, and the Hong Kong government has not very systematic legislation.

Of course, if Lin Zuhui invites talents in the cultural field to form an advisory group, conduct systematic research and file a case, and finally pass Lin Zuhui's intervention, even the British Hong Kong government will pass the real "Cultural Establishment of Hong Kong" bill.

But Lin Zuhui did not rush for success, but through the layout of his own companies, he gradually changed the pattern and development of Xiangjiang cultural industry; Excellent works can also be exported overseas.

Lin Zuhui thought that before 1998, this method was used to let the people spontaneously attach importance to development; once the financial crisis came, Mr. Dong was not the first to approach Lin Zuhui, asking for help and advice.

At that time, Lin Zuhui's advisory group has already written a systematic plan for "Cultural Establishment of Hong Kong", and Mr. Dong will probably regard it as a treasure and carry out "legislation" in the Legislative Council as soon as possible.

The Hong Kong cultural industry is already very developed. If the Hong Kong government provides systematic legislation and financial support, it will be like a clockwork motor, soaring into the sky.

Lin Zuhui divided the cultural industry into ten major categories: design industry, animation industry, advertising industry, publishing industry, film and audio-visual industry, performing arts industry, software and games, radio and television industry, tourism and exhibition industry, and construction industry.

He has influenced almost all projects, even in the tourism industry, he donated 2000 million Hong Kong dollars in June for relevant departments to conduct research on tourism projects.

The reason is simple. In the first half of this year, Hong Kong's tourism industry generated 400 billion yuan in revenue. He felt that it was more than 10% better than the same period in his previous life, because the Hong Kong culture also drove Hong Kong's tourism industry.Some scholars have pointed out that if some tourism research is not carried out, tens of billions of tourism revenue may be lost every year.As a result, Lin Zuhui very much agrees with this point of view. Overseas tourists who come to Xiangjiang must be potential repeat customers and must satisfy others, so he supports this project.

And Lin Zuhui has also made financial donations in various cultural colleges, hoping that Xiangjiang will continue to flock to talents in the cultural field.

Exhibition Center.

Crowded, a large number of comic fans came to the Convention and Exhibition Center with great excitement to visit the "First Hong Kong Animation Festival".

Conan, Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charizard, Straw Hat Luffy and other large posters, figures, toys, animations, and video games delighted visitors.Of course, other comic businesses come here to participate in the exhibition, but they are not as popular as Wanhui Comic Club, but they will still have a high degree of exposure.

"Xiangjiang's comic industry is too developed!"

"That is, our Xiangjiang animation and the animation industry of the United States and Japan have become the world's three major 'anime'"

"It's so powerful, who rated the top three?"

"I commented, don't you think so? Are you a comic book fan?"

"I think so too. Xiangjiang has three top manga works in the world: "Detective Conan", "Pokémon" and "One Piece."

In the crowd, comic fans exchanged ideas one after another.

And some real-life Pikachu, Straw Hat King Luffy, Conan, etc. were surrounded by a group of fans for photos.

Suddenly, it seems like there are big shots often, and someone is organizing security.

"Haha, it's Sherlock Holmes and Conan!"

"Isn't that Mr. Lin Zuhui? Are those two Conan his sons?"

For a while, the crowd was restless.

And Lin Zuhui was indeed wearing Sherlock Holmes' costume at this time, while his eldest son Lin Wenjie and second son Lin Wentao were dressed as Conan.

Therefore, the three of them instantly became the most beautiful boys in the exhibition center.

This is all done by Lin Zuhui to give his son a company and surprise, not to promote Xiangjiang's comic industry.

The citizens of Xiangjiang are generally of high quality, at most they greet and watch from a distance, and they don't come forward to watch, so the impact is not great; while Lin Zuhui's bodyguards are all dressed in casual clothes, so they won't be too conspicuous.

"Baba, that's Pikachu over there!" Lin Wentao pointed to the real Pikachu in surprise, wanting to take a photo with him.

"Let's go, I'll take you to take a group photo!" Lin Zuhui said happily, holding a son in one hand.

Lin Wenjie looked very calm and calm to the gazes and smiles from all around him, and the surrounding citizens secretly praised 'a tiger father has no dogs'.

Lin's father and son's generous visit to the exhibition became a 'beautiful talk' for a while.

About [-]% of Xiangjiang's comics industry is owned by Wanhui Media, and Lin Zuhui has undoubtedly become the biggest contributor to Xiangjiang's comics industry.Today, although Lin Zuhui's original intention is to accompany his son, but in the eyes of outsiders, it also means to stand for Xiangjiang's animation industry.

Someone took pictures of Lin Zuhui and his two sons, but Lin Zuhui didn't stop them, after all, he couldn't stop them; fortunately, both sons wore Conan wigs and glasses frames, which was somewhat of a cover.

"Boss, you have a good idea. The next Comic Con will encourage comic fans to act as anime characters, increasing interaction!" Wanhui Comics President Luo Bencheng chatted with Lin Zuhui in the spare time.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Japan played like this in the early 90s! If you think it's good, I suggest you develop a 'cosplay animation exhibition', specially for comic fans to show themselves."

Wanhui Comics Club has a 'convention and exhibition business', and it is easy to prepare for these events.

Robbencheng's eyes lit up, then nodded, and said, "I remember it!"

Lin Zuhui smiled and continued to accompany his son to participate in the exhibition, having a great time.

The next day, newspapers all over Hong Kong published that Lin Zuhui and his two sons cosplayed at the "Hong Kong Animation Festival", which immediately aroused people's eagerness to read.

Citizens have praised Lin Zuhui as a good father with a childlike innocence, and some citizens think that Lin Zuhui is advertising for Hong Kong's animation industry. In short, he has received a lot of praise.

Chapter 576 [Don't you like it? 】

Media Building.

Wanhui Media currently has four major industries under its umbrella, namely: newspapers and magazines, animation and peripherals, games, and software.

Lin Zuhui inspected the software department, accompanied by President Liu Songcheng.

I saw a writing room where ten or twenty programmers were busy typing codes, and this project team was the 'Instant Messaging ICQ' project team.
