Hong Kong's new giants

For example, Taitaile Chicken Essence, after the acquisition by foreign capital in the previous life, has earned more than 25 times the profit, which can be said to be a big profit; Taitaile has created a turnover of 50 billion a year, and the scale is not small.

In this life, once Totole Essence of Chicken beats MSG in the domestic market and takes the No. 20 market share.Then New Times Group can consider acquiring the remaining [-]% ​​shares and take back the management rights.

Because in Lin Zuhui's view, fuel consumption and soy sauce are obviously more profitable condiments.If Totole has a high brand name, then there are naturally advantages in making soy sauce and fuel consumption.

During this wave, New Times Group not only entered the condiment market, but also the beer market.

In short, it is to use the power of capital to get a share in many fields in the Mainland.

If he doesn't make this money, he will be made by foreign capital in the future.He came to earn, at least he donated so much before, so he should be the most qualified to earn.

……

Luk Fook Jewelery.

Huang Weichang, the partner at that time, had already exchanged 20% of the shares of Lukfook Jewelery for the shares of LEIT Group; Huang Weichang was quite satisfied with the previous decision.

Although it only changed 0.23% at that time, he never sold it. Even if the stock market crashes in Xiangjiang, he still has full confidence in LEIT Group, just like other investors.

At present, the LEIT Group’s peak value of 500 billion Hong Kong dollars has indeed dropped by more than 360%, leaving only more than 8000 billion Hong Kong dollars; but its shares are still worth [-] million.

In fact, the LEIT Group gives investors the greatest confidence because of its tens of billions in cash flow and European and American investment securities; if the financial crisis has had the greatest impact on Lin Zuhui's company, it is naturally the LEIT Group.

Several of its brands have been greatly impacted.

However, everyone believes that the LEIT Group led by Lin Zuhui will usher in greater development.

"Boss, I'm afraid Xie Ruilin will go bankrupt soon!" Huang Weichang chatted with Lin Zuhui sitting on the sofa.

Last time, Lin Zuhui accidentally heard that Xie Ruilin was engaged in a diamond promotion, and immediately hinted that Huang Weichang would also participate in the promotion of diamond jewelry, so as not to make Xie Ruilin feel better.

Luk Fook Jewelery and Xie Ruilin are currently the third and fourth jewelry brands in Hong Kong, and they used to be fiercely competitive; therefore, it is only natural that Xie Ruilin should not let Xie Ruilin feel better.

What's more, Lukfook Jewelery is also affected by the downturn in Hong Kong's tourism industry, and its performance has dropped a lot, so it is inevitable to engage in some promotions.

Lin Zuhui said in surprise: "No way? So fast?"

Huang Weichang said with a smile: "We lost half of the diamond promotion business, and I don't know where the news came out that Xie Ruilin offended someone, so some creditors are a little worried, and they are going to the court to judge Xie Ruilin personally bankrupt."

Xie Ruilin not only caused the jewelry company to lose 13 billion, but also guaranteed a lot of loans in his own name.

Lin Zuhui was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said: "Isn't it referring to me, which media is talking nonsense?"

In this way, wouldn't it make you look stingy!

Huang Weichang was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "It's all tabloid media, just chasing rumors!"

Lin Zuhui shook his head and said, "This is what happened!"

However, the following words made Huang Weichang realize Lin Zuhui's "insidious".

"Has our company bribed the Xiangjiang local agency?" Lin Zuhui suddenly asked seriously.

Before a mainland tour group arrives in Hong Kong, it generally has to go through a triple relationship.First, the travel agencies in various provinces sell travel packages, attracting customers with very low group fees or even zero tour fees, with 20 to 30 people per group; later, the local group agencies sell the "group" to Pengcheng Travel Agency, and they can earn a fee. A considerable group fee; Pengcheng Travel Agency acts as an intermediary and transfers the travel agency to the local reception agency in Xiangjiang (commonly known as "ground agency"), and finally the ground agency arranges the board, lodging and itinerary of the group members in Xiangjiang.

This is the way of the early "low-cost travel agencies". Naturally, Xiangjiang local travel agencies have to take mainland tourists to go shopping, because they account for the bulk of tourism expenditure, and mainland travel agencies do not bear any expenses.60% of the goods purchased by the group members are given to the local travel agency by the merchant, and the local travel agency then pays the tour guide 10-20% commission.

So it is conceivable how powerful Xiangjiang is at ripping off customers in this respect.

In fact, this bad habit was not caused by Xiangjiang, but by mainland travel agencies.

Because at the beginning, the agreement between the two parties was that the mainland travel agency should pay the board and lodging expenses of Xiangjiang Travel Agency. Can be offset from the rebate of the corresponding store.

Over time, a "hidden rule" has been formed, and the result is that mainland tourists buy a lot of high-priced goods.Of course, this product may still be cheaper than the mainland, after all, Xiangjiang tax is so cheap.

Moreover, only shops that specialize in receiving mainland tourists will do this; normal shops will not damage their reputation.

When Huang Weichang heard this, he quickly said seriously: "We don't deal with local travel agencies, and we don't have a special store for mainland tourists!"

Lin Zuhui said with satisfaction: "Don't do anything wrong that will affect your reputation!"

When a company gets big, it becomes fearful and cautious about these things.

Lin Zuhui also often warns the management personnel in the mainland not to involve money. If you can’t do a project without money, you don’t have to do it; the worst way is to hire a third-party consulting service company, just like the Oriental Plaza in the previous life. Li Chaoren is not affected at all, because he is just an investor.As for why Zou Kaixuan and Dong's cousin are not affected, just kidding, there is Dong.

Of course, New Times Group is a large Hong Kong-owned company, and it also has a "sword of Shang Fang" in the mainland, and few dare to make things difficult; especially, the government also attaches great importance to "bad influence".

Huang Weichang said again affirmatively: "No, I will not embarrass the boss, and our LEIT Group does not need to do this. In fact, Chow Tai Fook and Chow Sang Sang should not do this, after all, the risk is too great. Although the rebate itself There is no legal issue about being high or low, but bribing a local agency must be in violation of the law. On the contrary, Xie Ruilin has such a store that specializes in receiving mainland tourists. I am afraid that there is suspicion of breaking the law, but there is no evidence."

Lin Zuhui nodded, and said: "The evidence is not simple, there are always leaks, and it is nothing more than through overseas companies!"

Huang Weichang nodded, as if he understood something, he said, "Okay, boss, I know what to do!"

The boss said so much to himself, if he didn't understand, he would be really stupid.What the boss meant was to give Xie Ruilin a knife and make them suffer more.

Finally, Lin Zuhui said: "Can you import or purchase 5-10 tons of gold for me every month, but don't cause too much impact?"

This is the real purpose of his looking for Huang Weichang. The matter about Xie Ruilin is just an explanation by the way.

Huang Weichang was taken aback, and said, "No problem, I am very familiar with the gold market! But how many tons does the boss plan to ask for in total?"

Back then, when the boss was speculating in gold, he also bought it once, and Luk Fook Jewelry also had its own channels.

Lin Zuhui said casually: "There is no limit. As long as the London gold is less than 300 US dollars per ounce a month, I will import it or purchase it locally. But there is one thing that cannot be revealed that I bought it!"

Lukfook Jewelery and Huang Weichang are not the only channels for him to purchase. Octopus Bank is the biggest channel for purchasing. After all, banks buy and store gold for customers. This is a business.

Huang Weichang nodded quickly, and said, "No problem! After purchasing, how to deliver it to the boss?"

Lin Zuhui said: "Later, I'll send someone to meet you."

Huang Weichang has no doubts!

Of course, although he knew that the boss was betting on the appreciation of gold, he didn't dare to follow suit.

The reason is very simple. The boss said that as long as the price of gold is less than 300 US dollars per ounce, he will always buy it; that is to say, gold may only appreciate in the future, or it may only maintain its value.

With his little money, there is no need to buy it.

Chapter 631 [Australia strategy]

Sydney.

In a villa near Watson Bay, Lin Zuhui was on vacation with Cai Ning and his son and daughter.

Anyway, Australia is also a base of Lin Zuhui's family, and it is very suitable for vacation, so Lin Zuhui will come here once or twice a year.In addition to living in villas, they will also choose their own Langham Hotel in Sydney and the two Ritz-Carlton hotels in Sydney and Melbourne.

This villa can be regarded as the top villa in Sydney. There is a large lawn in the front yard near the road, then the villa building in the middle, and the swimming pool and private dock on the sea side.

Lin Zuhui likes the design of this private pier very much. The wooden boardwalk extends directly into the sea, and there is a wooden house on the other side of the boardwalk.

This private pier can park yachts, and it can also be used as a place to play. Jumping into the sea from a section of the pier is not to mention how happy it is.

All of Lin Zuhui's family are good swimmers. His children have been swimming since childhood, and the sea is no stranger to them.

Sunshine, sea, bikini, and two children, this kind of scene is warm and romantic. Although Lin Zuhui has many small families, it still cannot hinder his inner joy.

He led everyone to the head of the wooden bridge, and then jumped himself, already in the arms of the sea.

Putting his head out, looking at Cai Ning, eldest son Lin Wenyi, and daughter Lin Ning who were still on the top, Lin Zuhui smiled and said, "Let's go downstairs to play together. I'm here, don't be afraid!"

Cai Ning is wearing a bikini, with a hot figure under the golden sun, which has amazing charm. This woman has a European and American figure; although she is 36 years old, she is well maintained and does not look like she is 30 years old. It is definitely the object that men most want to strike up a conversation with.

The eldest son, Lin Wenyi, is already 11 years old. He looks a little gentle and has a stable personality. It seems that he will become a good assistant to his mother in the future. As for his daughter Lin Ning, she is also over 7 years old this year. There are no ugly girls in the family, they are very beautiful, and they will definitely be beautiful when they grow up in the future.

Cai Ning smiled and said to his daughter who was eager to try: "Come up the stairs, don't worry if you fall!"

When Lin Ning heard this, he immediately retreated, and then ran towards the sea.

"Baba, follow me!"

"crazy girl!"

Lin Zuhui would pick it up there, so his daughter must have been injured, but as soon as her daughter fell into the water, he came to her side, set her upright, and cushioned her.

"Baba, it's not scary at all, my mother never let us play like this before!"

"It's safer to play like this with the bodyguard aunt and mother watching."

In this way, the family played in the 'private sea'. This is a bay, and yachts are often seen not far away, and Cai Ning naturally has yachts.

"Wen Yi, take care of my sister!"

"it is good!"

After playing for a while and dismissing the two little kids, Lin Zuhui and Cai Ning interacted, ignoring that the kids could see.In Europe and the United States, women even fall on the beach, and children are no strangers to it.

"The body is getting better and better, so I have to work hard!"

This thing, although the natural factors are very important, but the more important thing is the acquired exercise - aerobic exercise, squats.

Obviously, Cai Ning put in a lot of effort to win the favor of his man.

"Well, but doing sports has become my habit! As long as you like it!"

Lin Zuhui is very satisfied with the attitude of the women. What his women value most is not money, but their own maintenance, makeup, and grooming; the reason is as simple as possible, money is not a problem for a man who can please him.Once she falls out of favor, although having children will not be completely neglected, it is still very bad.

Therefore, everyone is doing their best to maintain and dress up.

Played for two hours.

The family returned to the shore through the stairs in the water.

"Wen Yi, take my sister out to play for a while after changing!" Lin Zuhui said.

Lin Wenyi immediately replied: "Okay...sister, let's go to the library later!"

Lin Ning was not so obedient, looked at Lin Zuhui and said, "I want to play with Baba!"

Cai Ning immediately mobilized the 'mother power' and said: "We have to talk about work for a while, you don't want to disturb, go follow brother!"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "There are many opportunities. Aren't you going back to Hong Kong soon?"

Lin Ning immediately said happily: "Yeah!"

After the child is gone.

Lin Zuhui called Cai Ning to the study to discuss the acquisition.

"This acquisition of Ruoshi Manor needs to be completed within a year, and it must not be delayed until after the millennium!"

Cai Ning nodded and said, "I know!"

She has always been a professional actress. In the past three years, she has come to Australia 'alone' and made a fortune - real estate and wine.Australia's housing prices are very stable, almost no decline (in years), and they have risen steadily every year.

Lin Zuhui asked again: "Have you come out with an estimate of Ruoshi Manor?"

Cai Ning nodded and said, "The evaluation company estimates that it will not exceed 9 million Australian dollars (about 6.3 million U.S. dollars), but we plan to quote 6 million Australian dollars first. This price is very sincere!"

Lin Zuhui was distracted while thinking.

The founder of Ruoshi Manor is called Robert. He is the son of a coffee bean merchant. Robert first sold coffee beans and cocoa beans from Papua New Guinea to the world in the 20s and 50s with great success.

After accumulating initial capital, Robert bought a small piece of land in Hunter Valley, Australia's most historic vineyard region, in 1969.This year, Robert and his family planted 50 acres of vines for the first time on the new land. In 1974, this land produced the first vintage of Chateau Roche.Soon, Ruoshi Manor continued to grow, and owned 7 vineyards across all high-quality production areas in Australia.

Ruoshi Manor first appeared on the stage in the 20s.At that time, the Australian wine industry was relatively closed, and little was known about the development of wine abroad. In 80, Ruoshi Manor selected its 1983 vintage Chardonnay to participate in the International Wine and Spirits Challenge of the year, and won two gold medals as soon as it made a move. This is the first New World winery that can do this , It also made Ruoshi Manor on the stage of international wine.

At this time, Ruoshi Manor can only be said to be on the international stage for the first time, and there is still great potential to select awards in the future. This is the best way to improve its reputation.

Cai Ning and others decided to quote 6 million Australian dollars, which is obviously very tempting. After all, the overall wine market in Australia has not yet exploded, and it should be after 2000.

Therefore, acquisitions within AUD 9 million are all very good results.

The reason why I say this is because Robert is a very powerful person. After all, others think that their property is worth so much. If you want it, you have to offer a high price to impress me.

And Ruoshi Manor's own influence is also worth buying at a high price.

"Let me put it this way, after the millennium, Australian wine will be more competitive in the world! So if you are bold enough to acquire, it doesn't matter if it exceeds 9 million Australian dollars, but not more than 12 billion Australian dollars."

Lin Zuhui didn't expect others to hand over his proud property easily, but he was determined to win it, and he would not be too preoccupied, so as not to miss the opportunity.

"So expensive?" Cai Ning asked with some doubts.

Lin Zuhui said: "Money is not a problem for our family! What I want is that you buy Ruoshi Manor as soon as possible, and then annex Southern Wine, and then form Australia's largest wine group."

Indeed, he now has a cash flow of more than 500 billion Hong Kong dollars in the account of Hengjin Investment alone; next year, he will cash out a large amount of cash per share, with funds of about 3000 billion, and he will care about 200 billion.

Of course, Cai Ning's wine business mainly depends on her own wealth.

She is currently worth about 70 billion to 80 billion. Assuming that she holds half of the shares this time, it only costs more than 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, which she can fully handle.

And once the Ruoshi Manor is acquired, and when the acquisition of southern wines (the wines represented by Penfolds Manor) is initiated, she can take part of the loan.In addition, Lin Zuhui will definitely support some.

In short, the Lin family's business in Australia will focus on wine, and then develop into real estate, agriculture, mining (shareholding), etc., to form a comprehensive group.

"oh, I understand now!"
