Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 1 Real Estate Strategy ()

In fact, it was not only Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi who were guessing what Lu Shaohua would do next, but also Liu Mingzhang and Li Zongen were secretly guessing. Liu Mingzhang's guess was more or less close, after all, he had been with Lu Shaohua for more than a year, and although he could not see through Lu Shaohua, he still had some basic understanding.

After Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi sat down, Lu Shaohua did not rush to speak. He tapped the sofa rhythmically with his hands. Each tap seemed to correspond to the heartbeats of several people in the hall. The whole room suddenly fell into silence, so quiet that it was a little scary. The four people looked at him without blinking, waiting for what to say next.

Seeing that their appetites were almost whetted, Lu Shaohua coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then spoke. "Mr. Lin and Mr. He, you two are professionals in real estate, and I don't understand anything at all. But this time, I have only one goal, that is, 'land'. I will buy as much land as I can."

After a pause, Lu Shaohua took a sip of the water that had been poured, and said with a serious expression, "Now all you two have to do is register a company first, then start investigating the land, and once the company is officially established, you can start buying land."

Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi nodded at the same time, indicating that they understood.

Just as they both nodded, Lu Shaohua's voice rang out again, but this time it was to Li Zongen. "After Mr. Li signs the contract tomorrow, the first thing he will do is to help register the company and collect information. Is that okay?"

This is the advantage of hiring a Japanese local employee, who is more familiar with the local situation and can do things more conveniently. Whether it is registering a company or collecting information, is Lu Shaohua just doing this for convenience?

……

It was not known whether it was because they were anxious or for some other reason, but after Lu Shaohua had given their instructions, Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi hurried to go outside to check out the situation. However, since it was their first time in Japan and they could only speak English and not Japanese, they were a little embarrassed. However, the following embarrassment did not exist at all. Although Li Zongen had not signed a contract with Lu Shaohua, he regarded himself as Lu Shaohua's employee and volunteered to take Lin Qiquan and He Chengyi out.

……

After the three of them left, the villa became quiet again. Lu Shaohua did not speak, and Liu Mingzhang did not speak either. The atmosphere became somewhat depressing. After a long time, Lu Shaohua broke the silence. "I will draft a contract later, and you can give it to your senior to sign."

"Yes! I know." Liu Mingzhang nodded, smiled and asked the question that had been in his mind. "Should we turn to real estate?"

"Do you think it's possible?" Lu Shaohua did not answer Liu Mingzhang directly, but asked instead. He paused for a moment before continuing. "Tomorrow you can transfer 2 million Hong Kong dollars from the bank and divide it into five parts."

Sometimes when talking to smart people you don't need to be so obvious, the other person will be able to understand. Liu Mingzhang is a smart man, of course he could understand the meaning of this sentence. He moved his mouth and was about to speak, but unexpectedly Lu Shaohua spoke first and answered what he wanted to say.

"The 2 million should be used to speculate on futures." After a while, Lu Shaohua said another word. "Increase."

"I understand."

The Japanese stock market had been on an upward trend in 1989, but it had not yet reached a crazy state. There were two reasons why Lu Shaohua had 15 traders come to Japan in advance.

First, let them practice and adapt to the Japanese operating methods. Learning is often not as practical as practice. No matter how much Liu Mingzhang taught in the past year, no matter how good a teacher is, it would not be as effective as letting them experience and familiarize themselves with the method.

Secondly, according to memory, the stock market has been rising, which is a 2% profitable thing, so why not do it? If you want to make more money, you need more start-up capital. If you have less start-up capital, you will make less money! If you start high, the money you make later is not one plus one equals two. Now, of course, the million yuan is given to them for start-up capital.

Lu Shaohua could have invested all his money in futures, but why didn't he do that? There was another reason. As for what reason...

In the next few days, Liu Mingzhang was busy with the 2 million yuan fund, while Lin Qiquan, He Chengyi and Li Zongen were busy registering the company and collecting information. Of course, Li Zongen had already been Lu Shaohua's employee, and the contract was signed the next day.

The information about the land was increasing day by day, and had already piled up into a small mountain. Lu Shaohua didn't care about it, and didn't look at the information. At this time, the land in Japan had reached a crazy level, but the high land price did not affect his plan. It was just that the company had not yet been registered. As long as the registration was completed, he could start at any time, so he was waiting.

……

In May 1989, the Japanese government began to implement a tight monetary policy, but it was too late and had little impact. Real estate continued to rise. The crazy rise in real estate and higher interest rates caused the stock market to spiral downward. By the beginning of 5, the Tokyo stock market had fallen by 1990%, and 38 trillion yen (equivalent to 300 trillion US dollars) in stock market value disappeared in an instant. Real estate prices plummeted from the peak of speculation, and the economy fell into a depression after the bursting of the "bubble economy", and the Japanese economy entered a recession period of more than ten years.

Someone once joked to the president of Mitsubishi Estate, Japan's largest commercial real estate developer, "Someday you will buy the Rockefeller Building in New York. It is the tallest building in the United States. A year later, Mitsubishi Estate announced that it had spent 2000 billion yen to acquire the Rockefeller Building and flew the Japanese flag at the top of the building." It has to be said that the Japanese are indeed crazy, and the degree of their madness is not something that most people can expect.

……

Time passed quickly. More than ten days had passed since arriving in Japan. Lu Shaohua stayed in the villa all day and never came out. When he was bored, he watched TV and read some information. His days could be said to be boring.

That day, Li Zongen came to the villa and told Lu Shaohua a good news. Yes, it was good news. The company had been registered. Although it was good news, Lu Shaohua just nodded lightly, as if it was all natural. "Go find Mr. Liu and Mr. He. I will arrange the next plan."

"Okay." Li Zongen responded and hurried out. He thought to himself, "What is the next plan?"
