Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 508 inquiries, property sales (two in one)

Waking up early in the morning, looking at the young woman Zhao Yazhi lying beside him, Lin Baicheng couldn't help but want to do some morning exercise.

Don't hesitate, since you think about it, then take action.

Last night, Lin Baicheng comforted Zhao Yazhi and said that he would send someone to Canada to find Huang Hanwei. As long as he took time, he would definitely find him. Zhao Yazhi, who had no other choice, could only choose to believe in Lin Baicheng. Lin Baicheng's place here is now her only hope.

Lin Baicheng was actually not lying to Zhao Yazhi, he actually sent a bodyguard to Canada to look for him, but he didn't give much support, he relied on the bodyguard to find him himself, so it was just a vacation for that bodyguard.Of course, if the bodyguard finds someone without support in a short period of time, then Lin Baicheng will definitely look up to that bodyguard and reuse that bodyguard.

However, even if he really found someone, Lin Baicheng would still let Huang Hanwei leave. For the time being, he didn't want Zhao Yazhi to have an extra oil bottle by his side.As for what will happen in the future, who can say for sure, he hasn't thought that far.

Because of the time delay at Zhao Yazhi's place, Lin Baicheng arranged to meet Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan, the two presidents of Xinhua News Agency, in the afternoon.

The meeting with Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan this time was of course for Lin's mother Zhao Huilan's relatives in the mainland.

When it was time to meet in the afternoon, because it was Lin Baicheng who asked the other party for help, he made a special visit to Xinhua News Agency this time.With Lin Baicheng's current wealth status, even if he is in the mainland, as long as he does not act as a vanguard, it will not have much impact on him.

Of course, if Lin Baicheng follows Huo Yingdong as a red family, even if he is the richest man in Hong Kong and helps many people in the Hong Kong government make money, he will not be able to get out of it without any impact. He will still face suppression from the British side.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng is very sensible. It’s okay to stand in line or even obviously stand in line, but the red family can’t do it, and some red lines cannot be crossed.Even if the UK is in decline, it is one of the world's great powers after all, so if you really want to deal with Lin Baicheng, you should not be too easy.

What's more, Lin Baicheng actually doesn't want to be a red family, he is not that great yet, and he also wants to leave a considerable fortune for future generations.

"Mr. Lin!"

When Lin Baicheng came, the two presidents personally greeted Lin Baicheng.

"President Wang! President Li!"

Lin Baicheng shook hands with the two presidents while looking at the inside of Xinhua News Agency.After all, this is Xiangjiang. Xinhua News Agency is an important domestic institution stationed in Xiangjiang, and it is the official facade. Therefore, the decoration and layout are not bad, but it is not too luxurious. Obviously, it is not allowed by the finances.

Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan then introduced Lin Baicheng to other high-level leaders from Xinhua News Agency, and Lin Baicheng also greeted them one by one.

"Mr. Lin, please here."

After the introduction, Wang Yiping immediately called Lin Baicheng to his office, this time only Li Fuquan followed.

In the office, the three drank tea and chatted.

After a long while, Lin Baicheng said: "President Wang, President Li, what information do you have about my mother's relatives?"

"It's ready, Mr. Lin."

Hearing this, Wang Yiping got up and went to the desk to pick up a document.

"Thank you to the two presidents, and the official help."

Lin Baicheng, who took the file, expressed his thanks.

"Mr. Lin, you are welcome. You have always supported our work strongly. These are what we should do."

Even if it wasn't to win over Lin Baicheng, with Lin Baicheng's help in their work, they should have done Lin Baicheng this favor.

Lin Baicheng said with a smile: "Since you two said so, then I will not be polite. We are all our own people, aren't we?"

"Mr. Lin said yes."

Of course, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan would not refute this statement.

Lin Baicheng opened the file and looked at it, but because this is not the place to read it seriously, he just browsed it roughly.

Seeing this, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan watched silently without disturbing each other.

But after a short while, Lin Baicheng roughly finished reading.This is mainly about the family situation of Lin's mother, Zhao Huilan's two uncles. They are both still alive, and they all have their own families. They have many children and grandchildren, making them a big family.

Like the vast majority of families in China at present, the family situation of Lin's mother's two uncles is very bad. After all, they are just ordinary peasant families, and sometimes they don't even have enough food, and even less living supplies.

Lin Baicheng, who closed the document, said to the two presidents Wang and Li: "President Wang, President Li, I would like to ask, if our family wants to visit these relatives in the mainland, is it possible?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yiping immediately said: "The country will definitely take back Xiangjiang, so everyone is from the same country. Of course, Mr. Lin, if you want to go back and visit those relatives, there is no problem."

Li Fuquan immediately said: "Mr. Lin, when are you going to go, just say hello to us first, we will tell the domestic side, and then there will be someone to accompany you, Mr. Lin. The current conditions in the country are not good. , so Mr. Lin, if you want to go there, you still hope to be mentally prepared."

Although it is said that family ugliness should not be publicized, the current domestic conditions are indeed not good. This cannot be hidden from others when they agree to let Lin Baicheng go to the mainland to visit relatives. It is better to say it in advance than to hide it.

Lin Baicheng said: "I will talk to my mother about the two uncles and grandparents. If we decide to go to the mainland at that time, I will contact the two presidents again and ask the two presidents to help us a lot."

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, we will do our best."

The two presidents immediately responded when they heard the words.

"correct."

Lin Baicheng suddenly remembered: "Although I don't know what my mother's attitude towards the two uncles and grandparents is, they are relatives after all, so I would like to ask the two presidents to help send some supplies to them. Whether it is paying directly or buying supplies to send In the past, I can do it here, but I don’t know if it’s okay?”

"Special matters, what supplies do you want to send, Mr. Lin, after you buy them, we will deliver them on your behalf."

The two presidents, Wang and Li, looked at each other. They didn't say anything about the fact that they had specially sent some supplies to the home of Lin's two uncles. It was unnecessary to say it as if they were asking Lin Baicheng for credit.

Lin Baicheng nodded: "Okay, I will let people buy some supplies, and then I will ask the two presidents to help pass them on."

Wang Yiping reminded: "Mr. Lin, the situation in China is different from that in Xiangjiang, so it is useless for you to send large appliances such as TVs and refrigerators, and please do not send too many supplies to avoid accidents. trouble."

"I understand what President Wang means, and I know what to do."

Lin Baicheng nodded thoughtfully, knowing that it is best not to send too many supplies, and the supplies should be sent correctly, taking into account the current domestic situation.

After talking about this matter, the three chatted about other things, mainly small talk.

After chatting for a while, Lin Baicheng said goodbye and left.

After leaving, Lin Baicheng went to Hutchison Whampoa and called Wei Li to his office.

"Wei Li, among the properties purchased last year, which property does your management think is better to sell?"

Regarding the decision to sell a property, Lin Baicheng had already talked to Wei Li on the phone, but he did not specify which property to sell, but let Wei Li and his management discuss it.

"Mr. Lin, you want to release the good news to the outside world. Based on the company's current market value, a property with a price of about 100 to 100 million Hong Kong dollars, even if the company makes [-]% profit, the profit is limited. It is not too good, let alone the current It’s not as high as [-]% profit.”

"Therefore, after we discussed it, we felt that we could sell any of the properties in Golden Gate Building, Federal Building, International Building and Emerald Pearl Plaza. The price of any of these four properties was no less than 4 million Hong Kong dollars. With the current growth rate of the property, 50% of the profit is still available.”

"Of course, among the four properties, the Golden Gate Building has the highest value, and the profit from the sale can reach as much as 3 million Hong Kong dollars, which is the biggest benefit."

Wei Li knew that Lin Baicheng did this for the benefit of the release, so he revealed the results of his discussions with other people.

"Is it the Golden Gate Building?"

Lin Baicheng recalled that Hutchison Whampoa bought the Golden Gate Building from Jardine Matheson for 6.1 million Hong Kong dollars at the beginning. If it is sold now, the transaction price will be at least 9 million Hong Kong dollars. If the price is negotiated well, it can be sold for 9.5 million Hong Kong dollars or even higher.

If the profit of Jinmen Building can reach 3 million Hong Kong dollars, reaching about 50%, the shareholders are not fools. Just read the newspapers to know the 26.2 billion Hong Kong dollars invested by Hutchison Whampoa last year. The shareholders are even more impressed, so they must know Hutchison Whampoa made a profit of as much as 13 billion Hong Kong dollars from this investment.

A profit of 13 billion Hong Kong dollars, even if Hutchison Whampoa has a market value of about 240 billion Hong Kong dollars today, it is not a small sum, and it can be said to be a big plus.

"Since you think it is more appropriate to sell the Golden Gate Building, then sell the Golden Gate Building. You can find a buyer, but HSBC will also help find a buyer. My only request is that the selling price of the Golden Gate Building cannot be lower than 9 billion Hong Kong dollars, this is the bottom line."

Lin Baicheng actually knows that the property market can go up for at least a year, but it will collapse in 82, so it is a bit early to sell now, yes, but it is nothing more than making less money. Anyway, starting from next year, the property will be slowly sold of.Furthermore, the funds recovered from the sale can be invested in other places, and it will not be too bad.

"Mr. Lin, the target of the Golden Gate Building is quite good, and the current property market is very good. If we are willing to sell the Golden Gate Building, I am sure that the price will reach 9.5 million Hong Kong dollars. It is not impossible to go higher."

"Well, anyway, this matter is handed over to your management. You can figure out how to do it yourself."

Lin Baicheng nodded casually. This kind of matter must be left to Wei Li and the others. If it is not done well, Lin Baicheng can directly blame Wei Li and the others.

Wei Li asked aloud: "Mr. Lin, you want to build a Su-style garden by yourself now, so do you still need the 15 villas that the company will build?"

"Of course, when will the villa be built?"

Lin Baicheng nodded immediately. He knew that he was not an innocent and good man, and he couldn't pass the test of beauty. In the future, there would be many beauties around him, so he had to buy more villas and apartments.

Wei Li replied: "After September, villas will be built one after another. The time for all villas to be completed will probably be until March next year."

"Well, the villa is still reserved for me. I should buy it all next year. At that time, I will buy it at the market price, and I won't take advantage of the company."

Lin Baicheng really didn't intend to take advantage of Hutchison Whampoa. After all, he held half of the company's shares, and the most he could get was half of the advantage, so there was no need for that at all.

"Mr. Lin, you bought 15 villas at one time. This is a large purchase. The company sold it to you at a [-]% discount on the market price, which is completely reasonable."

Upon hearing this, Wei Li immediately said that Lin Baicheng is the controller of Hutchison Whampoa, so he is serving Lin Baicheng, and Lin Baicheng's interests should be placed above Hutchison Whampoa.Otherwise, his position as the senior class would not be stable at all.

Having said that, if it is said that when Hutchison Whampoa was acquired by Lin Baicheng at the beginning, Wei Li would leave after a year or two, then he has no such idea at all now.

If you start your own business, you can only run a small company. How can you compare the prestige of Hutchison Whampoa Group, which is in charge of a market value of more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars, and your social status will be elevated because of this.In addition, Lin Baicheng has other groups, and his business is getting bigger and bigger. Now he only wants to serve Lin Baicheng well, and then move to a higher position.

"Sell it at [-]% off the market price at that time. After all, I am the chairman of Hutchison Huang. I don't want to be gossiped about."

Lin Baicheng thought for a while and said, if there is a reasonable advantage, he will not take it for nothing, but he does not want to be gossiped about. The 15 villas cost 5000 to [-] million Hong Kong dollars, and his extra half price is nothing more than two million Hong Kong dollars. He can afford this amount of money.

"Okay, just do as you say, Mr. Lin."

Wei Li didn't insist on selling it at a [-]% discount, it wasn't necessary, he knew that little money was nothing to Lin Baicheng.

Nodding his head, Lin Baicheng asked: "When I was in Los Angeles a few days ago, I heard Yufeng report to me that the planning drawings of the Soviet-style garden have been made, is that true?"

Wei Li nodded and said: "Yes, Professor Sun and Professor Chen have already made the blueprints. They are based on field investigations. The blueprints are in the company now. Would you like to see them?"

"What's the point of just looking at the drawings."

After waving his hand, Lin Baicheng said: "It's past four o'clock now, so forget it, you can contact them later and ask if they have time to come over tomorrow. I will come over then and let them explain the garden to me. Design layout or something."

"Professor, they must have time. I'll have someone contact them in a while."

Wei Li immediately said that even if they didn't have time, he would let them come tomorrow unless they didn't want to do this big business.

Lin Baicheng: "Well, if they don't have time, remember to tell Qin Lan."

"I will."

Wei Li agreed, although he was sure that the professors who designed the blueprints would have time to come over tomorrow.
