The Industrial Giant Reborn

After the lawyer got the order, he went back to work as required, while Chen Zhiwen stayed and flipped through the newspaper for a while, and found that the news page in Hong Kong was really inexplicable. A cat trapped in a tree and rescued by firefighters could also be published in the newspaper. Arrangements were also made. Not a small layout.

There are a lot of similar trivial things, or it is the gossip in the entertainment industry, but it seems to be relatively mild, not like the paparazzi style of the later generations, and the other is that some novels are serialized, but I am used to the fantasy web novels of the later world. This kind of martial arts novels have long since lost interest.

I put the newspaper on the shelf in the coffee shop, borrowed a phone from the bar, hung up after ringing a few times, and then flipped through a few other books around me. After a while, the phone rang, It was Zhang Yunxue who called.

In 1973, Motorola should have just invented the world's first commercial mobile phone, the predecessor of the mobile phone, the mobile phone. Obviously, Hong Kong does not have this thing to buy, and even if it is, it is useless. There is no infrastructure. Apple 14 got it in 1973 Years, can't make any phone calls.

Fortunately, there are still BB machines, and the other party can receive the message after making a call, and then the owner of the BB machine will call the nearest phone company to ask for the number, and then call back.

From the perspective of later generations, this is a very troublesome operation, but now people think it is very good and advanced. After all, people can still be found within half an hour.

They still made an appointment at the previous hotel, and when Chen Zhiwen arrived, Zhang Yunxue had just returned.

In just half a day, she bought some clothes and a pair of leather high-heeled shoes. After putting them on in front of Chen Zhiwen, she twirled her body a few times. Her previous school was Latin dance, and she has a great figure.

A few days later, Chen Zhiwen got the news. We have found a suitable office building in Central, and we have to wait for Chen Zhiwen to go to confirm it in person.

"The scenery is really nice, son, how big is this area?" In an office building in the center of Central, a middle-aged lady with rich clothes and temples stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the Victoria Harbor not far away and smiling. said.

"There are two upper and lower floors, about 50,000 feet (about 5,000 square meters)." Chen Zhiwen replied with a smile. He only checked the location of the several office buildings introduced by Lin Yanming, and then decided which one to rent. After negotiating the price, he quickly signed the contract , because if you don't hurry up, it will probably disappear.

Although the real estate crisis was serious in 1973, housing prices, stock prices, and rent prices all plummeted in various ways, but it hardly affected the buildings located in the prime location of Central, especially the most famous Prince's Building under Hongkong Land.

Prince's Building was built in 1965. It is considered a relatively new building in Central. Although it has only 27 floors, it covers a large area, with each floor covering 25,000 feet (about 2,500 square meters).

After it was settled, Chen Zhiwen brought his parents here to watch, and it happened that his mother Wu Xiuling had just returned from RB.

"Yes, renting such a large area in this place gives people the first impression of strength. I heard that Bao Yugang's global shipping is also in the Prince's Building?" Wu Xiuling asked.

"Yes, they are on the top six floors." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said. The two floors I rented are the 16th and 17th floors. The view is already very good, and the highest 27th floor is obviously better.

Although Hong Kong is dominated by British-funded foreign firms, these foreign firms have been established for hundreds of years. Except for Taikoo, the other several equity interests have long since been dispersed.

The newly promoted Chinese billionaires are all major shareholders of their own companies. Although the company is much smaller, in terms of personal value, British investment may not be comparable to some Chinese upstarts.

In April of this year, American media ranked the world's richest people. Bao Yugang was worth US$700-1000000000, becoming the new richest Chinese man.

Countless Chinese in Hong Kong are proud of Bao Yugang.

Chen Tianfu asked: "Awen, you are renting such a large office building with such a good location. What kind of business are you going to do? You don't really plan to make plastics, right? There are few plastic factories in Hong Kong whose profits can match this one." rent for an office building.”

"Of course not." Chen Zhiwen smiled mysteriously.

"How much is the rent here?" Wu Xiuling asked curiously, she didn't know the price yet.

"A month, about 50,000 Hong Kong dollars." Chen Zhiwen shrugged and said, the rent of Grade A office buildings in Central Hong Kong is about 5-6 Hong Kong dollars per square foot per month, and the central core of Prince's Building is the highest quality under Landmark. It is normal for the price of an office building to double.

A monthly profit of 50,000 Hong Kong dollars is beyond the reach of most factories in Hong Kong, let alone plastic factories that can only do OEM work.

"It's quite expensive." Wu Xiuling was a little surprised, but she didn't say anything more. To do big business, one must show off one's own strength. Working in Central Hong Kong is a symbol of strength.
