The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 618 The Pressure of the Chartered Ship King (Two in One)

Although Li Jianhui and others did not make a big publicity about their investment and donations in Sichuan and Shu Province, many interested people in Xiangjiang still got some news, and various forces also held meetings specially to study their own development strategies.

In the conference room of Xianghua Hotel, after Huo Yingdong briefly introduced what he knew.

The Chartered Ship King said: "Whether the Bryan government relaxed the restrictions on speech and political system, or the Donghua Association's large-scale donation and investment in Sichuan Province this time, it shows that England is already weak in the negotiation, and 97 returns to the basics. It's no longer a problem.

It was obvious that the Donghua Society was trying to seize the upper hand. Although it could not be said to be a timely gift, it was definitely the icing on the cake.

Although the northern market is huge, it is not unlimited. In Guangdong Province, the influence of Donghua Association is relatively strong. It can be said that in the South China market, it may be dominated by Donghua Association.

And now the other party has invested heavily in Sichuan and Sichuan provinces, and it is dominant here, which means that the Southwest market has also become the back garden of the Donghuahui.

The East China market was originally our advantage, but during this period of time, Donghua Club is also increasing investment there. The president of Amoy Group has gone to Ludao to inspect the market. The Golden Princess Theater is also continuing to expand in the East China market. Communicate with Shanghai Stock Exchange on port joint venture matters.

On the contrary, our investment in East China is not as fast as Donghuahui. Fortunately, many of us are from East China, so we have an advantage over Donghuahui in this respect.

As for the North China market, we have also established a joint venture with the Beijing International Trade Center. Looking at Donghuahui, the other party Yushi Group and BAIC have established a joint venture to produce high-end cars, and Xiangjiang Aircraft Engineering Company has established a joint venture maintenance company with Beijing Airport.

Ladies and gentlemen, we must be more proactive in developing our manufacturing and production industries. I don't hope that one day Xianghua will be able to survive only on the mainland's policies and the real estate industry, as Li Jianhui said.

A consortium like the Tung Wah Society, which has a strong desire to control, dares to finance companies with development potential in the Mainland. Why can't we?

......"

Those present knew very well that with the gradual withdrawal of their businesses from the Xiangjiang market, the only thing they could rely on was the mainland market.

If they still cannot gain a foothold in the mainland market, the decline of their own family will be inevitable, and Xianghuahui will be completely kicked out of the group by the upper circles of Xiangjiang, and their decades or even generations of struggle will be ruined once .

Wang Kuancheng, who is also from Yongcheng like Chartered Boat King, said: "We have been cornered now, if we still want our family not to be kicked out of Xiangjiang's wealthy circle at this time, we should have the courage to die.

We don’t need to care about the southwest market, and we can ignore the northern market for the time being. In the south China market, Donghuahui, Xinhonghui, Xinyahui, and Nanjianghui are competing for it, and we can also temporarily avoid it.

But the East China market is where many of us are from, and it is also the only market where we can compete with Donghuahui. We absolutely cannot back down.

I suggest that in the near future, we also organize an investment investigation group, focusing on major cities in East China such as Ludao, Yongcheng, Lin'an, Jinling, Shanghai Stock Exchange, and Qindao. "

Tian Yuanhao, chairman of the board of directors of Wantai Garment Manufacturing Co., Ltd., has been doing fairly well during this period. Although he mainly earns RMB at present, because his clothing can be directly sold domestically, his business volume has grown rapidly.

From the half-time work when he was suppressed by the Donghua Association, overtime work has become the norm now. In order to solve the problem of insufficient production, he has recently planned to expand the production plant.

Originally, he planned to continue to put it in Pengcheng, but since everyone wanted to focus on entering the East China market, and his hometown is also the Shanghai stock market, he stated that he would put the new production workshop in Ludao.

Cao Guangbiao, who is also from Yongcheng like the Chartered Ship King, also stated that he planned to build a printing and dyeing factory in Ludao.

Some people who do not have a manufacturing industry in their hands also expressed their willingness to invest in some relatively powerful enterprises in East China to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results with East China.

Seeing that everyone is willing to invest in the East China market, the charter king is relieved. As the helm of Xianghua Club, he is the one who is under the most pressure.

In the past few years, no matter whether it is the Donghua Association or the other major forces, the industry has been expanding and growing at a high speed. Only the Xianghua Association, because of the joint suppression of several parties, has not only failed to increase its strength, but has regressed.

He knew very well that Xianghua Club wanted to make a comeback, and the only way to do so was to invest in the northern market on a large scale. In order to seize the opportunity, he even made a big bet and persuaded the members of Xianghua Club.

What makes him uncomfortable is that the Donghua Club under the helm of Li Jianhui seems to be lukewarm about the north, and repeatedly talks about business and business, but it turns out that it pays more attention to the market there than he does.

Moreover, while entering Guangdong and Sichuan provinces on a large scale, they are also entering the East China market on a large scale, and they have never stopped targeting their Xianghuahui companies.

In terms of theater layout, there may not necessarily be a Kowloon Cinema next to a Golden Princess Cinema, but there must be a Golden Princess Cinema next to a Kowloon Cinema.

In terms of clothing and textiles, it can be said that Donghuahui and Xianghuahui are the biggest opponents in the northern market.

Although Hongyu Clothing and Xinyang Clothing, the two major clothing leaders of Xianghuahui, do not enter the low-end and cheap market, in recent years, driven by Donghuahui, especially the transaction between Donghuahui and Huayue Group, many relatives The members of the East China Association have entered the low-end clothing industry.

Now these clothing companies have also chosen to accept that they will not transfer their profits out of the country for [-] years because they have the endorsement of Donghua Association. Therefore, they can also sell directly in the domestic market and are competing with them in many provinces for the market.

After the meeting, when only Huo Bao and Huo Bao were left, Huo Yingdong said: "Yu Gang, don't put too much pressure on me, I believe that with the continuous economic development in the north, the situation in Xianghua Club will gradually improve.

As for the Donghua Society, because of the monster Li Jianhui, it is difficult for us to compete with him.

Right now, all of our focus has shifted to the mainland, and there are not many industries that compete with Donghuahui.

To be honest, I'm afraid that Li Jianhui didn't take our Xianghua Club seriously at all. In his heart, only the top consortiums in Europe, America and Japan can get his attention. "

Naturally, the charter king also knows how much the Xianghua Society is worth. Looking at the other major forces in Xiangjiang, the Donghua Society has never targeted them at all after its rise.

The Xianghua Club is the only one that can be targeted in Xiangjiang. This does not mean that the Xianghua Club is stronger than the Far East, Xinhong, Xinya, and Nanjiang. It is mainly because of their relationship with the North.

And even so, the charter king knew very well that the Donghua Club had no intention of putting the Xianghua Club to death, otherwise they would not be able to easily sell off their properties to get back the funds.

"Yingdong, it's not that I don't know, it's just that I always feel ashamed to join the members of the Xianghua Club. Back then, each family was a well-known Xiangjiang family, but now it's getting worse every year.

In contrast to the Tung Wah Association, the first ten families recognized in Xiangjiang were nothing but the Li Family of Xin Jian and the Li Family of East Asia.

Now these two are firmly occupying the top two positions, the Lei family of Jiulong is also ranked third, the Zhang family of Guanghua has also entered the fifth place, the Guo family of Yongan, the Wang family of Xinbin, the Li family of Xinyang, and the Feng family of Daoheng. Entered the top twenty.

I don't mention that even if Yin Xiang couldn't make it into the top ten a few years ago, he still had his place in the top [-]. Now he doesn't know where he has fallen. The top [-] families have long since lost his place.

Guangbiao was also not much better than Yinxiang, and also fell out of the top thirty families.

According to some of our previous rules, this has already fallen out of the ranks of the second-rate giants, even though they still have the name of a wealthy family, they are no longer considered wealthy. "

Hearing this, Huo Yingdong was also emotional. In the past, there were usually only four to five top wealthy families, about ten first-rate wealthy families, fifteen second-rate wealthy families, and twenty third-rate wealthy families.

But because Xiangjiang is so big, the third-rate wealthy families are no longer considered wealthy families, and the top [-] families are really regarded as wealthy families.

However, due to the rapid economic development of Xiangjiang in recent years, some default rules have also been adjusted.

There are generally ten top giants now, that is, the top ten families released every year. Each of these ten families has assets exceeding tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars.

First-class wealthy families are families with assets exceeding five billion Hong Kong dollars, including the Yongan Guo family, Xinbin Wang family, Xinyang Li family, Yongheng Feng family, Bao family, Lixin Lin family, Far East Qiu family, Hang Lung Chen family, and Wanbang family. Cao's family, Huaguang Zhao's family, Zhou Xingxu's family, etc.

The second-rate giants have family assets of more than two billion Hong Kong dollars, and there are more of them, such as Shixin Liu's family, Yuen Long Zhang's family, Disheng Pan's family, Hehe Hu's family, Yongxin Cao's family, Dongfang Dong's family, Asia Commercial The Chen family and others.

As for the third-rate wealthy families, the threshold is relatively low, and the standards are different. Some families are considered wealthy if their assets exceed [-] million Hong Kong dollars, while others are considered wealthy if their assets exceed [-] billion Hong Kong dollars. Those at the top do not take these families too seriously.

Of course, there are also some powerful but not included, such as the Xinhui Chen family, Tianshui Pan family, Yongsheng Xiang family, etc. Although these families have transformed and have relatively strong capital, they are still not very recognized.

These wealthy families are not only rich, but also have strong influence. For example, in the top ten families, each person at the helm is either an unofficial member of the Executive Council or an unofficial member of the Legislative Council.

Moreover, many family helmsmen are the presidents of a certain industry association, and have a strong voice and influence in this industry.

Xianghuahui not only has not developed its industry, but its influence is not as good as before. In many industries, Xianghuahui no longer has the right to speak.

The Far East Association and Donghua Association have the right to speak in finance, and the Donghua Association has the right to speak in real estate. The leading power of the Textile Industry Association is still in the hands of the Donghua Association.

As for the newly established Electronic Semiconductor Association, most of its members are members of the Donghua Association or pro-Donghua Association members.

As for Xiangjiang’s industrial associations involved in various industries, after the change of office this year, they are also dominated by the Donghua Association. Not only is the chairman Wang Shanbin, a member of the Donghua Association, but the Donghua Association also occupies two of the three vice-chairmen. Yang Chengbin, President of Core Technology Group, and Xu Hongfei, President of Amoy Group.

As for the three previous conferences, the Xiangjiang Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce has become history, replaced by the Xiangjiang Real Estate Association, no longer only those in charge of Chinese-owned real estate can join, any company headquartered in Xiangjiang can join.

The first chairman was Zhang Guangwen, and the vice-chairmen were Li Zhaoji, Li Chaoren, and Zheng Yutong. The executive directors covered the top [-] leaders of Heung Kong Properties listed companies, and Gan Qinglin, the president of Xinjian Real Estate, was also added.

As for the Xianghua Club, no one has become the executive director. He, Chartered Ship King, Hu Yinxiang, and Wang Kuancheng are just ordinary members of the association. He has changed from being a leader to a dispensable existence now.

Although the Jockey Club in the other two major races is still beautiful, it has long lost its former power and power, and now it is more of a communication platform for people who love horses.

The yacht club is already a mess. Although it still exists, it has no cohesion. Even many yacht owners no longer join this association. Li Guobao has become the first member to withdraw from the association.

Looking back on the development of the past few years, Xianghuahui can no longer be described as a failure. If anyone is responsible for this, then it must be him and the charter king.

People will compare. If you say that the members of Xianghua Club have no ideas, I am afraid that no one will believe it. Now it is more because several major forces have taken shape.

He can also understand the inner feelings of the charter king, and can better understand the dedication of the charter king for Xianghuahui.

If it weren't for the desire to twist Xianghua into a single rope, why would the charter king have sold the global shipping that he has operated for half his life, and it is even more impossible to lose Wharf due to financial problems.

"Yu Gang, I can't blame you for this, I can only say that luck is not on our side, and we never expected to be targeted by all parties because of our inclinations.

And these forces do not have any views on the north, but hope to have a relatively level playing field in the northern market, but we have become the biggest obstacle in the eyes of these forces.

Maybe this young man is just an ordinary villager in Diaojingling, or maybe Li Jianhui didn't show up. I'm afraid our Huazi family still maintains relative unity. "

The general pattern of the past few decades has not changed much. Since Li Jianhui began to appear in the public eye in 1977, the situation has changed beyond most people's imagination.

Two of the four major foreign firms that had been on top of Chinese capital for nearly a century were acquired and two were suppressed. British capital and Chinese capital began to be out of position.

Because of the establishment of the Donghua Society, it also promoted the alliance of the major families and officially entered the era of commercial consortiums.

In just a few years, countless families have risen, even reached the top of the top giants, and countless families have declined along with it.

Among the four major families, He Li Ligao, only the East Asian Li family and the He family are in the top ranks. The old and new ship kings in the past, the Dong family plummeted, and the status of Bao Xu and Zhao Cao also dropped.

Once among the top five real estate companies, Sun Hung Kai was still strong, Cheung Kong came from behind, Dachang became a subsidiary of Henderson, and Hang Lung developed steadily. Only Hopewell Holdings has been going around for six or seven years. Its market value is not to mention compared with these large real estate companies. Some medium-sized real estate companies have also left it behind.

It's a pity that the charter king doesn't think that Xianghua will develop to today because of Li Jianhui, but that Xianghua will develop in the wrong direction at the beginning. It's just that he doesn't like to say some things directly, so as not to hurt the relationship between the two.

It's just that he has come to this point now, and he can only remedy it as much as possible. This time, he proposed to invest in the manufacturing industry in the East China market to help these companies develop better, and even promote the products of these companies to go overseas.
