Rebirth: The Era of Hong Kong Tycoon

Chapter 37 [Bag bag is safe]

Landmark won the bid for 'Central Land King' at a price of HK$2.58 million, and the subsequent impact was huge.

First of all, it has strengthened the confidence of Heungkong real estate practitioners. Those real estate developers who have not recovered from the real estate slump in 1967 will again invest a lot of money into the Heungkong real estate industry, thereby making Heungkong real estate more prosperous;

Secondly, this time there are many investors who believe that "Modern Daily" will make a lot of money. The earlier they enter the market, the more they will earn;

In the end, with this incident, the sales volume of "Modern Daily" increased again, attracting many financial and business people.

Modern newspaper.

Lin Rongheng held a departmental meeting, and the eight departments were responsible for bringing them together. Everyone had a smile on their faces. Obviously, the company's situation has been very good recently.

Lin Rongheng first said: "Yesterday, the sales volume of "Modern Daily" reached a record high of 22000 copies. It is a happy thing, after all, we have only published it for 18 days." After speaking, Lin Rongheng took the lead in applauding, with a smile on his face. smiling.

The smiles on everyone's faces were even greater, and they celebrated this happy moment with Lin Rongheng.

After the conversation changed, Lin Rongheng said: "Actually, it's not so happy. I have always had a goal, that is, within a year, our newspaper sales should reach 8 copies. At the beginning, I was afraid to say When I came out, everyone lost even more confidence. Now, I said it, do you have any confidence?"

Everyone said in unison, "Yes!"

The momentum is very good and the fighting spirit is high. This team already has the potential to become the first newspaper in Hong Kong.

Zhang Jiancheng of the editorial department said: "Actually, this sales volume is almost the same as the sales volume of "Sing Tao Daily" and "Ming Pao". Although these two newspapers have accumulated for decades, they also have a weakness, that is, they have a fixed customer base. It is not difficult to see from a small audience that our "Modern Daily" and Ma's "Oriental Daily" have the most correct strategy, which is to spread customers to ordinary citizens."

Sun Wangsheng of the editorial department nodded and said, "Now, both of our newspapers are recruiting journalists aggressively, and everyone has the same idea. However, we have already won them, and our sales have already led them. In addition, this time they and We are contrary to the conclusion of 'Central Land King', and we believe it will bring certain negative effects to them."

Everyone expressed their opinions and was full of confidence, but they did not underestimate the "Oriental Daily", which made Lin Rongheng very satisfied with the current state of the company.

Then, Lin Rongheng arranged the direction of the company's use of funds. Lin Rongheng didn't want to keep the loan of 100 million Hong Kong dollars for too long. Big downwind.

Although the Ma family has a lot of money, they can't blatantly spend it!

Finally, Lin Rongheng announced: "The modern newspaper is expanding too fast. In order to better manage the modern newspaper, I plan to promote the editor-in-chief Zhang as the editor-in-chief of the newspaper and serve as the vice president."

As soon as the words fell, the eight people in the room were stunned for a moment, and then they applauded.

In fact, Lin Rongheng asked An Qi to look for his right and left hands outside, and he also negotiated one, but it was a managerial talent.

The post of editor-in-chief is basically the backbone of the major newspapers, and it is difficult to find such talents; Lin Rongheng, the editor-in-chief of the tabloids, does not look down on it.

According to Lin Rongheng's observation, Zhang Jiancheng's strength is not weak. The reason why he did not become the editor-in-chief before was because the former boss Huang Renqi was both the president and the editor-in-chief. It also buried Zhang Jiancheng's talent.

Zhang Jiancheng quickly got up and said: "Thank you boss for your affirmation. I will strictly implement the general direction arranged by the boss, and make the details satisfactory to the boss, colleagues and readers."

Lin Rongheng nodded and said, "Let me tell you one more situation. I also found a vice president who will help me manage the company in the future. Everyone should also understand that I can't always focus on the modern newspaper, so I hope Please support your work. If you haven't been promoted, don't feel uncomfortable. By developing the modern newspaper into the number one newspaper in Hong Kong, everyone's status will naturally rise."

Although everyone was a little surprised, they still expressed their willingness to accept the management of the two new bosses.

As for the other boss, it is a vice president of "Daily Daily" named Luo Zhaoyou;

However, he will not be able to work until next month.

Saturday, October 6.

Lin Rongheng did not rest, but worked in the office of the modern newspaper.

At the close of the stock market yesterday, the stock price of Landmark has reached as high as 22.2 Hong Kong dollars, which is 35% higher than Lin Rongheng's purchase price; Lin Rongheng's 2000 million Hong Kong dollars (5 times leverage, about 120 million shares) has now made a profit of 700 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is time to cash out. .

According to reason, this kind of thing should be handed over to HSBC Securities, after all, that is what they do.

But here, Lin Rongheng can operate it, and it will be more smooth.

After a while, Zhang Jianhua of HSBC Securities came to the modern newspaper office and walked into Lin Rongheng's office.

Zhang Jianhua sat on the sofa, looked at Lin Rongheng's office, and said with a smile, "It's a little surprising, I thought your office should be very luxurious!"

Lin Rongheng poured a cup of tea for Zhang Jianhua himself, and said: "In the stage of starting a business, everything is simple! However, the new office building is already in the process of searching. I am afraid you will not sigh like this next time you come!"

Seeing that Lin Rongheng poured tea in person, Zhang Jianhua didn't even have a secretary, so he quickly said 'thank you'.

"Also, "Modern Daily" is developing too fast. In just 20 days, the sales volume has stabilized at more than 2 copies; then, naturally there is no time to change office buildings!"

Lin Rongheng didn't bother about this topic anymore, but handed Zhang Jianhua a press release, which is why he asked Zhang Jianhua to come to his office.

Zhang Jianhua took the press release and read it seriously.

After a long time, Zhang Jianhua asked curiously, "Jardine's current development focus should be overseas. Could it be that they really want to start the 'Central Redevelopment Project'? So, hire the professor from the University of Hong Kong as a consultant!"

Lin Rongheng said with a smile: "The Jardine Group has not only one Landmark, but also a Wharf. Even if they want to start the 'Central Redevelopment Project', they will start the 'Wharf Redevelopment Project' first. Therefore, within two or three years at least, Jardine The group simply does not have the strength to initiate a huge 'Central Redevelopment Plan'."

Lin Rongheng remembered that the reconstruction of the Wharf will begin next year, and the Harbour City project will be officially built;

The Central Redevelopment Plan was not implemented until 1974.

Zhang Jianhua thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "You mean that Henry Keswick did it on purpose, the purpose is to give us a signal so that we can continue to raise the stock of Landmark."

Lin Rongheng nodded and added: "The higher the stock price of Landmark and the higher the market value, the more conducive it is for them to carry out business activities. Whether it is raising funds or acquiring companies, they are all based on high market value."

Zhang Jianhua said with a sigh: "I didn't expect that Landmark is the biggest winner when we are busy."

Lin Rongheng said with a smile: "Whatever we do, as long as we can make money! Tomorrow I will use the newspaper to report the news that Landmark has hired a professor on Hong Kong Island, which is equivalent to sending a smoke bomb to the market. Those imaginative investors, The stock price will definitely continue to rise. At that time, it is time for our bags to be safe.”

Lin Rongheng added: "Actually, Landmark's stock is worth long-term investment. I personally think that within two years, it will be no problem to rise to [-] to [-] Hong Kong dollars. After all, real estate has begun to flourish, and Landmark is the overlord of Hong Kong's real estate."

This is to make good friends with Zhang Jianhua, and he is not making long-term speculation anyway.

Seeing Lin Rongheng expressing his guess so generously, Zhang Jianhua couldn't help but ask, "Is it possible that Mr. Lin is not going to speculate in stocks after this transaction is over?"

Lin Rongheng nodded and said, "The short-term speculation is just a temporary sight. Next, I will invest the funds in the real estate, and we will cooperate again when there is a chance in the future!"

Zhang Jianhua was a little reluctant, and after thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Lin's concentration on real estate is a good thing. If you need a loan, I can introduce someone from the loan department of HSBC for you."

Lin Rongheng's spirit has come, and he has always wanted to catch up with HSBC, even Shen Bi; as far as Lin Rongheng knows, Shen Bi is also the director of the accounting department of HSBC, and he can make it in advance.

"Naturally there is a need! When the business of Evergrande Real Estate is on the right track, I will come to you, I hope you can help me connect!"

"No problem, it's a win-win anyway, it's all small things."
