Hong Kong's new giants

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "It's because I didn't do well enough, I should have come to see you sooner... this is Zhihong, right?"

Lin Zhilin bent down involuntarily, and then said excitedly: "Mr. Lin, I am Zhiling's brother Lin Zhihong. It's an honor to meet you!"

Lin Zhilin couldn't help laughing, she knew that with Brother Yihui's aura, the family would dare to "go out".

After a brief greeting, Lin Zuhui hugged his son and walked towards the villa.

"Are you used to it?"

"Um"

"That's good. I heard from them that there are no luxury villas on Taiwan Island. Let's just live there. You can go back to Xiangjiang anytime."

"Well, Brother Hui."

Back at the villa, everyone sat in the living room and chatted. At this time, Lin Fannan, Lin Zhihong and his son had completely turned into Lin Zuhui's dog legs, and they talked with him, more or less flattering.

During this period, Lin Zhilin took out a card and handed it to Lin Zuhui.

After Lin Zuhui took it, he handed the card to Wu Meichi and said, "Auntie, this is my heart!"

Wu Meichi quickly refused. To be honest, apart from Lin Zuhui's marriage, she is 200% satisfied with this son-in-law; even so, she has now accepted this fact.

"How can it work? Although our family is not rich, it is also a portal for doing business. There is no shortage of money!"

Lin Zhilin hugged her son and said with a smile on the side: "Mom, Dad, you just accept the 5000 million Taiwan dollars (about [-] million Hong Kong dollars), brother Hui's heart."

Lin Fannan and his wife, and Lin Zhihong suddenly turned their faces to one side, and a flash of heartbeat flashed across their faces.

Lin Zuhui put it in Wu Meichi's hand, and said with a smile: "If you don't accept it, I always feel that my relationship with Zhiling will not be blessed by you, so I must invite your men."

Seeing Lin Zuhui's resolute expression, Wu Meichi could only withdraw her hand, and said, "Then I'll keep it for Zhiling and Wentai!"

"Don't, that's what I do as a man and a father!"

"All right!"

It's easy to get rid of the family, not to mention that Lin Zhilin's parents are a small boss, even a rich man, Lin Zuhui can easily handle it.

late at night.

Lin Zuhui put his arms around Lin Zhilin, who had a hot figure, and sighed in his heart, finally winning glory for the Chinese man and guarding the number one beauty in Baodao.

"Brother Hui, don't you feel quite offended?"

Lin Zhilin was lying in Lin Zuhui's arms, with Qianqianyu's hands on his chest, her eyes were full of little stars of admiration.

Lin Zuhui squeezed Lin Zhilin's chin with his hands, and said with a smile: "Am I angry? You little girl didn't see the situation today!"

"Pfft..." Lin Zhilin couldn't help laughing, and then said: "I hate it, you almost scared them, you are so powerful."

"How can I scare my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I have a very good attitude, they are too careful!"

Hearing Lin Zuhui calling his father-in-law and mother-in-law behind his back, Lin Zhilin couldn't say how happy he was.

……

Time flies, and it is 2001 in a blink of an eye.

In early January, New Era Group headquarters.

Lin Zuhui sighed in the office, another year has passed, and his life in this life is also ushering in the third natal year.

He didn't lament that he is 36 years old and he doesn't think he is young. On the contrary, he has always been very confident. Even if he is 80 or 20 years old, he must be able to play well, and he can play better than [-]-year-old young people.

He just lamented that 16 years of hard work, along the way "is not easy", to achieve such a huge career.

"Boss, happy new year!"

Liang Zhenxun, the "God of Wealth" of the group, came in and greeted him respectfully.

"Happy New Year!"

After sitting down, Liang Zhenxun reported the financial issues, so that the boss could make a financial arrangement plan for the next year.

"Currently, our company's available liquidity is 1660 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the debt is 300 billion Hong Kong dollars... According to your instructions, I have notified Morris, the president of Langham Hospitality Group, and Steven, the president of Amazon Shopping Center. The new project funds of these two businesses are temporarily frozen, and only the current project funds can be guaranteed..."

Last year, a lot of big items were spent: 35 billion US dollars in shipping, about 25 billion US dollars in hotels and European and American shopping malls, 200 billion Hong Kong dollars in debt repayment, 150 billion Hong Kong dollars in large commercial real estate projects...

The remaining 1660 billion Hong Kong dollars is already saving and spending.

Moreover, Lin Zuhui now attaches great importance to the cash flow of the group, so he is not in a hurry anymore with so much money in the account.

The financial arrangements for the hotel business and the Amazon shopping center are all approved by the group. He suddenly froze the development funds of the two businesses. Naturally, he planned to start working after the 911 incident, so as to save some funds.

"Well, this year the group may temporarily tighten up expenditures. Heung Kong Properties is still underperforming, and the world is affected by the Internet bubble crisis...Although we have sufficient funds, we still have to be cautious. When the company was small, I desperately used loans to develop , because I know that even if it collapses, the scope of impact will be limited; now that New Era Group has assets worth trillions and employs 10,000+, once something goes wrong, the impact will be too great.”

"Yes, boss, I remember!"

In fact, many people do not understand one thing, that is why Lin Zuhui spent more than 150 billion US dollars on shipping in three years.

Shipbuilding in South Korea alone cost a total of 80 billion U.S. dollars to build 820 million tons of various ships, including many expensive LNG ships (high technology, which cannot be built in the mainland).

The tonnage of South Korea's shipbuilding in a year is only about 1000 million tons, and Lin Zuhui directly gave them the amount for a year, which is so large that it is rare in the world.

However, the ships ordered by Lin Zuhui started to be delivered in 2001 and are expected to be delivered by the end of 2003, so he actually used the cheapest cost to arrange the ships before the shipping outbreak.

At the same time, Times Shipping also placed a huge order of 20 billion US dollars in the Mainland, and also bought a large number of second-hand ships in Asia.

The consequence of this is that once the shipping outbreak period comes, many people will have no ships to use, and only Times Shipping has enough ships, which will naturally affect the freight and rental fees.

At that time, the ships (self-owned and managed ships) controlled by Times Shipping at about 3500 million tons will have a great say.

"Last year's normal profit was less than HK$400 billion, right?"

"Well, only about 380 billion Hong Kong dollars."

"okay, I get it!"

Lin Zuhui didn't care. Although New Era Group has trillions of assets, it may not necessarily earn 5% of its asset value in a year, and even 2% to 3% is already very good.

Because the appreciation of the asset itself is not included in the calculation, the New Era Group is still very aggressive.

After Liang Zhenxun left, Lin Zuhui also thought about it.

In the previous life, the economy of Xiangjiang from 1998 to 2004 was either declining or going sideways, which was equivalent to no growth for six full years.

Because of this, there are a series of problems in Heung Kong. For example, real estate has been declining year by year, even falling below 3000 yuan per square foot on average.

In this life, Xiangjiang's economy has been greatly improved with the emergence of cultural industries, technology industries, and various industries under Lin Zuhui's banner.

For example, it is not impossible for the GDP in 2000 to exceed 2000 billion U.S. dollars, or even reach 2100 billion U.S. dollars.Of course, if other industries have not made efforts in recent years, Xiangjiang's economy should not break through 2500 billion.

But even so, I feel that it is much better than the situation in the same period (1700 billion) in the previous life.

Therefore, Xiangjiang Real Estate is currently in a sideways state, with an average price in the range of 3500 to 4000, and its performance is not bad.

Maybe it will be longer this year, but it will be 911 and SAS soon, and it should be stable at more than 3500 Hong Kong dollars per square foot.

After 2004, Xiangjiang's economy began to explode in an all-round way. It will definitely not lose to Singapore in this life, and the per capita should be able to do the same.

Thinking of these achievements, Lin Zuhui felt a little proud.

Chapter 697 [This is the chaebol! 】

Lin Zuhui's private plane took off from Xiangjiang and arrived at Seoul International Airport.

Later, he took the convoy of the Hilton Hotel in Seoul and checked into the hotel.

Whether it is the management right or the ownership of this hotel, it belongs to Lin Zuhui's company; the management right belongs to the Hilton Group, and the ownership belongs to the Langham Hotel Group, which also opened a Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Seoul.

It can be said that Lin Zuhui has his own five-star hotel in any important city in the world, and he can be called the "Emperor of Hotels in the World".

Hilton Hotel Group is the largest hotel group in the world; Langham Hotel Group should be the hotel group with the highest assets in the world.

For example, Langham Hotel purchased the title of this Hilton Hotel, which cost more than 2 million U.S. dollars. For a hotel like this with heavy assets, Langham Hotel Group needs to buy 5 to 10 buildings a year. Hundreds of millions of dollars, or even hundreds of millions of dollars.

In fact, this is equivalent to property speculation. Assuming that by the end of 2007, the sale of several property rights can also bring very high profits to Langting Group.

……

On the next day, Lin Zuhui participated in the launching ceremony of the first new ship delivered by Hyundai Heavy Industries to 'Time Shipping'.

Times Shipping ordered various ships of several million tons in Hyundai Heavy Industries, and Lin Zuhui also took part in the launching ceremony of the first ship with a lot of face.

evening.

Lin Zuhui was invited to attend the dinner, which was hosted by Chung Mong-joon of Hyundai Heavy Industries, a special banquet for him.

As their biggest client, Lin Zuhui was of course the P among the VIPs, and received the warmest reception.Although South Korea's shipbuilding industry has surpassed Japan in one fell swoop in the past few years, and there is no shortage of orders, they always receive grand customers like Lin Zuhui every time.

"Mr. Lin, we are honored to welcome you to the dinner party!" Zheng Mengzhun took the first step to greet you.

He is the controller of Hyundai Heavy Industries, and Times Shipping's orders from Hyundai Heavy Industries account for 8% of the orders placed in South Korea; and Times Shipping's orders in South Korea account for about [-]% of South Korea's annual production.

Zheng Mengxian also rushed up to greet him, and said without lagging behind: "Mr. Lin, I'm glad you came to the dinner. You've worked hard today!"

At this time, Hyundai Motor has become independent from the Hyundai Group. The controller of Hyundai Motor, Zheng Mengjiu, is a great talent. Even if Zheng Zhouyong is not dead, he directly separated Hyundai Motor & Kia Group, together with ten subsidiaries.

As for Chung Mong-joon's Hyundai Heavy Industries and its subsidiaries, although he has ideas, he has not yet acted on them. If Chung Joo-young returns to the west, he may immediately learn from his second brother Chung Mong-koo and separate Hyundai Heavy Industries and its subsidiaries.

From then on, the modern group dispute of "three divisions" began.

The battle between brothers, uncle and daughter-in-law, brother-in-law and daughter-in-law are the most beautiful scenery in Bangzi Kingdom.

In fact, in the era of Chung Joo-young, Hyundai Group was the boss of South Korea, and Samsung was just the younger brother.

Lin Zuhui first shook hands with Zheng Mengzhun, and then soon shook hands with Zheng Mengxian, and said with a smile: "Every time I come to Korea, I will trouble you!"

Zheng Mengzhun said with a smile: "How can it be troublesome? For a distinguished guest like Mr. Lin, it is our honor to associate with you!"

After a while of modesty, everyone took their seats, and Lin Zuhui led all senior executives of Times Shipping.

It can be seen that the relationship between Zheng Mengzhun and Zheng Mengxian is not very good, but Zheng Mengxian is currently the chairman of the board of directors of Hyundai Group, the parent company of Hyundai Heavy Industries, and Lin Zuhui has the best relationship with him, so it is impossible for him to be absent from such things.

Even for the launching ceremony during the day, Zheng Mengxian also participated, which made it rare for the two brothers, who have never been very harmonious, to meet twice today.

Chung Mong-joon still dominated the banquet, Chung Mong-heon is not good at words, he is an 'honest man'.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for your continuous support to the Korean shipbuilding industry. You can rest assured that we will complete your ship on time and with high quality."

Lin Zuhui said: "Korea's shipbuilding price has an advantage, and I believe in the technology and quality of Hyundai Heavy Industries. You are my most trusted partner."

What was said was the truth, but it moved everyone.

During the period, Zheng Mengzhun asked tentatively: "Mr. Lin is coming to Korea this time, do you still need to place an order?"

Although Hyundai Heavy Industries' orders were all scheduled until 2003, he knew that this man had no time requirements, on the contrary, he especially relaxed the time.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "I haven't thought about this problem yet, but if there is a need, I will definitely look for you!"

There must be some orders, but he doesn't want to hand them over so quickly, and it's his subordinates who will do it. How can he participate in the cooperation? It's just an order.

Seeing that Lin Zuhui did not deny it, Zheng Mengzhun immediately became active. A long-term customer is very important, and Times Shipping is the world's third largest container shipping company and a large oil and gas shipping company. It can be called a high-quality potential customer.

"May I ask, do you know which hotel Mr. Lin is staying at tonight?"

“Hilton Hotel”

Lin Zuhui said it nonchalantly, he still didn't believe that Zheng Mengzhun had any malicious thoughts, after all, he was in his hotel.

Zheng Mengzhun nodded with a smile!

Next, everyone exchanged cups and chatted happily.

After the banquet, Lin Zuhui was about to go back to the hotel, and Zheng Mengxian followed.

"Mr. Lin, are you free tomorrow? Can I invite you to talk about business?"

Lin Zuhui hugged Zheng Mengxian with a smile, and said, "Brother Mengxian, I must have some difficulty seeing your face. It doesn't matter, I'm only your friend in Korea, why don't we go to the Hilton Hotel to drink tea and chat by the way?"

Zheng Mengxian was surprised at first, because the appearance of the words "look at the face, difficult" just confirmed the fact; then he was flattered, after all, being regarded as a friend by such a business legend that is not inferior to his father immediately moved him very much.

"Okay, I'm bothering you!"

"Take my car!"

In the car, Zheng Mengxian couldn't help asking: "Mr. Lin, I'm very happy to be friends with you, but I think you are very business-like towards Meng Zhun, after all, he is your partner. Why do you prefer to make friends with me?" ?”

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "He has the potential of a Z customer. I don't like to be a real good friend with a Z customer. You are different. I believe that a person who is extremely filial to his father must be a good person, and it is natural to be a friend." Okay. So, am I right?"

Zheng Mengxian said emotionally: "I am very happy to be friends with Mr. Lin, and I will definitely not hurt my friends."

"Ha ha"

In fact, the two have been in contact several times, so they are considered familiar.In the past two years, Xiaomi Technology was still in the hands of Hyundai Electronics, and Zheng Mengxian contributed a lot to the purchase of an LCD display production line.
