Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 157 [Deep Water Bay No. 75] (Please subscribe!)

Monday, October 7.

Lin Zuhui came to New Era Real Estate early, and first picked up the newspaper prepared by his assistant to read.

Last week, the Hang Seng Index closed at 1760 points, which surprised Lin Zuhui. The whole July was basically running below 1800 points, and even fell as low as 1730 at one point. If Lin Zuhui was not convinced that history would not change like that, he would be a little panicked now!

At this time, nearly half of his net worth has been invested in the stock market, which is comparable to a 'big gamble'.

The next piece of news made Lin Zuhui feel a little funny: Huang Yulang claimed to be worth 2.4 million Hong Kong dollars, and the American "Wall Street Journal" called him a billionaire prodigy who 'painted a rainbow'.

Another media revealed: Huang Yulang heard the report of "Wall Street Journal", and he didn't know where he was for a while, and he called himself "Yulang Emperor" to his employees. The whole group was "Yulang Empire", and even planned to build "Imperial Printing factory'.

Lin Zuhui couldn't help laughing. He was thinking that although Huang Yulang's Yulang Books was listed, he could still raise funds through rights issues, because Huang Yulang holds 75% of the listed company's shares and only 25% of the public shares. The rights issue is just right Let him dilute the shares (the major shareholder does not provide it, and give it to other investors); however, "Daily Daily", "News Building", "Fresh Weekly" and other properties that belonged to Huang Yulang have been eaten by Lin Zuhui in advance. How to expand his Yulang Empire?

As well as his 'apprentice' Ma Rongcheng, Wanhui Media is also in contact to discuss the terms of cooperation. By then, Wanhui Media will also enter the comics industry.

Next, Lin Zuhui saw another piece of news: Swire Properties won the No. 11 lot of Admiralty Bingfang at a price of 2 billion, with an area of ​​17.2 square feet.

早在1985年4月，太古地产便以7亿多的价格拿下金钟兵房1号地段，面积达11万多平方尺；如今加上2号地段，相当于他们占有金钟兵房28万多的土地。

Such a huge land is the famous "Pacific Place" in later generations, which brings together three first-class hotels, two first-class office buildings, and a huge shopping mall.

Envy is beyond words.

Lin Zuhui could only stare blankly. If he was given another two or three years, he believed that he still had hope.

"I remember that Swire Properties purchased the South China Morning Post Building and Toppan Building in Quarry Bay in the 90s. If there is a chance, I will snatch it!" Lin Zuhui smiled.

However, this is not an easy task. Buying a building requires a huge amount of money, and the payback period is very long, and the interest on the loan will eat up the rent; In fact, there are not many buildings on the lease.

These bosses pay attention to the rotation of goods. They developed a lot of high-quality buildings in the 80s and [-]s, all for the purpose of selling; The Elizabeth Building and Locke Building rebuilt by the tobacco company were sold, and a large amount of development funds were withdrawn.

Looking at the news in the newspaper, Lin Zuhui was also thinking about how he could catch up with the four big families and the top ten chaebols.

At this time, his development is already a little stronger than that of Liu at the same time in his previous life. After all, the market value of New Era Real Estate is far higher than that of Aimeigao.

In the morning, Li Hongming from the foreign exchange department of HSBC called and the USD/JPY had fallen to 155.5 points.

"Okay, help me close the position, thank you!"

Lin Zuhui instructed Li Hongming to close the position without hesitation, and then leaned back on the chair with a slight reluctance on his face.

This wave of USD/JPY fell from the highest point of 262 points, and fell to 155 points in less than a year and a half, which can be described as a real "cheat for making money".

But after this wave, Lin Zuhui's investment in USD/JPY will be suspended. Although there will be repeated turbulence later, it belongs to the game of predators after all, and he dare not participate rashly.

He invests in foreign exchange, gold, oil, etc., and only dares to invest in major emergencies such as the "Plaza Accord"; because this is an irreversible trend, he is not worried about being attacked by others.

However, after the 150 stock market disaster, the dollar/yen once again appreciated, and the dollar/yen fell from above 1988 points to 120 points at the end of [-].You can participate in this wave of market a little bit, but don't be greedy, Lin Zuhui thinks in his heart.

Liang Zhenxun came to Lin Zuhui's office and reported: "Boss, all the futures contracts were bought. There are a total of 5500 contracts. It took 15 trading days and a deposit of nearly [-] million."

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "Well, let's see how the stock market develops! Our entire New Era real estate department has invested a lot in the stock market. The two companies New Era and Huazhi have invested 15 billion in stocks (this Gold 5 million), futures contract [-] million (principal [-] million)."

Liang Zhenxun said with a smile: "The boss is full of confidence, the stock market will definitely rise soon!"

It seems that a lot of investment is actually invested with leverage, and it is true that the risk is high.

However, judging from the size of the entire group, even if these funds are lost, it is not enough to be fatal, but it is true that it will affect the company's reputation.

Lin Zuhui rubbed his temples, for the rapid development of the company, he was heartbroken.

"By the way, what is the specific situation of our industrial building investment?"

"Very good! We purchased 3.5 million worth of industrial buildings last year (with a down payment of 1.5%), and now the increase is obvious; coupled with the fact that Xiangjiang's industrial buildings are already very tight, I expect a net profit of 2 million to [-] million yuan by the end of the year."

Lin Zuhui showed a smile. He asked New Era Real Estate to speculate in industrial buildings with 7000 million yuan of funds. He didn't expect that the profit would more than double in a little more than a year. This investment seems to be good!

It seems that leveraged real estate speculation is also a shortcut to making a fortune!

In Xiangjiang, there are countless billionaires relying on leverage to speculate in real estate.

Some time ago, Lin Zuhui met an interesting new immigrant, Yang Yongqiang, at his construction site.

He applied to immigrate to Xiangjiang in 1976. When he first arrived in Xiangjiang, Yang Yongqiang worked as a construction worker in a project contracted by his relatives, and his daily salary was only 15 yuan. Because of his hard work, he quickly became a contractor (contractor).

In 1978, Yang Yongqiang bought a wooden house in Diamond Hill for 8000 yuan. In 1981, he sold it at a high price and got 4 yuan in cash, which was more than four times the profit.

Therefore, Yang Yongqiang realized.

In order to accumulate enough capital, Yang Yongqiang continued to underwrite projects from construction companies; in 1985, he already had enough capital, and then he specialized in high-end off-plan projects in Huangpu Garden, earning a lot of money.

The down payment of an uncompleted property only needs 10%-15%, and when Whampoa Garden started selling uncompleted properties in April 1985, it only required 4 to 600 Hong Kong dollars per square foot.More than a year has passed, and the price of Huangpu Garden has risen to more than 700 yuan per square foot. If the down payment is 1000%, Yang Yongqiang has earned more than four times the profit.

Yang Yongqiang is using these funds to build an industrial building; according to the current progress, he may make another big profit in this wave of industrial building boom.

Yang Yongqiang's experience is definitely considered a 'legend' among the new immigrants!

There are many examples of new immigrants from the Mainland like Yang Yongqiang, but there was no top-level rich man who was a new immigrant in his previous life.

Today, Lin Zuhui has become their leader, idol, and their goal.Everyone knows that Lin Zuhui was a new immigrant in 1979, so he is like a god among hundreds of thousands of new immigrants, and his status is higher than Li Chaoren.

"Let's do this first, the company will concentrate on developing new real estate, and we'll digest the rest for now." Lin Zuhui said with a final word.

"Ok!"

It's not enough if you don't digest it, because there is not much money in the account of New Era Real Estate, even if Lin Zuhui wants to play it, he still has the strength but not enough.

In the afternoon, Li Hongming from the foreign exchange department of HSBC called. Lin Zuhui's foreign exchange position had been successfully closed. After deducting commissions and taxes, he had made a total profit of 7000 million yuan and returned 1.2 million yuan.

"Okay, I'll pick up the check tomorrow!"

In an instant, Lin Zuhui returned to being a billionaire, with a cash flow of more than 1.3 million.

75 Deep Water Bay.

Lin Zuhui brought Wang Lingyin to this old-fashioned villa covering an area of ​​more than 2 square feet. Just recently, Lin Zuhui bought it from a British foreign company for 4500 million.

Very cheap, and now it is still a 'deserted' hillside.

Strictly speaking, the geographical location of Deep Water Bay is not as superior as that of Repulse Bay. The reason why later generations can be as famous as Repulse Bay is because Li Chaoren, Chartered Ship King, Kadoorie, Xu Shixun and others lived here. Bay prices.

As for No. 75 Deep Water Bay purchased by Lin Zuhui, the villa is actually very old and needs to be rebuilt at a huge cost.

Pulling Wang Lingyin, who was just a young woman, Lin Zuhui tirelessly introduced his idea of ​​reconstruction;
Because he is a real estate developer and has a certain design foundation, Wang Lingyin was fascinated by the villa he drew.

"Brother Hui, can we really hold a wedding in such a villa?" Wang Lingyin asked longingly.

"No problem! If the design and construction start this year, it is estimated that you will be able to move in in 1990. By then, you will be in your third year of junior high school, so it will be no problem to get married and have children!" Lin Zuhui made no secret of his idea of ​​starting a family.

It can be said that Lin Zuhui's prediction is: Wang Lingyin will be pregnant with his child in 1989, and she will get married and have children in college.

As for Xiangjiang University, it's nothing more than donating some money. The school won't embarrass Wang Lingyin, and the graduation certificate can be sent to her home.Of course, Wang Lingyin's grades are very good, and generally he won't go too far.

Although Lin Zuhui likes Wang Lingyin, he must be selfish and consider the inheritance of the family, so it is inevitable that young people will make more people.

Although Wang Lingyin was young, he was already deeply influenced by Lin Zuhui, and said happily: "Of course I have no problem, I will follow your orders. I wish I could be two years older, so that I can complete the inheritance for Brother Hui sooner!"

Lin Zuhui stroked Wang Lingyin's beautiful hair, and said dotingly: "No hurry, I will only turn 12 in December this year, and I can wait for you for three years!"

Indeed, he was still young!

Wang Lingyin seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "Actually, you can let Sister Ning and the others have a baby first, and I don't care about it!"

She can tell from Lin Zuhui's arrangement that Lin Zuhui regards real estate and media as the real estate assets, and the fashion empire is arranged for Sister Guan and Sister Ning; as for Sister Zuxian's career, Brother Hui may not have thought of it yet.

In short, she believes that Brother Hui has a long-term plan in everything he does, and no one can change it.

Therefore, her non-competition is the best 'competition'.

What's more, her brother Hui is not yet 22 years old, and his future achievements are too great, so she doesn't need to fight to annoy him.

Lin Zuhui patted Wang Lingyin's hand and said, "I will consider it!"

To be honest, he is also concerned about his own heirs!
If he is very strong in that aspect, unbelievably strong, but if he can't plant it, then he should really want to cry without tears.

Therefore, he is also considering the question of whether the activity is good or not.

Thinking of this question, Lin Zuhui couldn't help but think of Wang Dehui, who was also a rich man.

You must know that Gong Xinru was in the mid-90s, with a net worth of 250 billion, and tied with Huo Yingdong for fifth on the list of super tens of billionaires.

One of the reasons why Wang Dehui was repeatedly kidnapped is because he has money but no power.

Just imagine, there are two situations that are unlikely to become the prey of kidnappers: no money and no power, and rich and powerful.

The purpose of the kidnappers is to ask for money, what is the use of kidnapping the poor?What the kidnappers wanted was money, but the kidnappers did not dare to attack the powerful and wealthy people easily.

Wang Dehui's wealth ranked more than a dozen Chinese before the 90s, but he has never held any public office or received any honors; he has no contacts with politics, business, or even the Shanghai gang. He has never done any charitable deeds, and he has no social foundation. It can be seen from his second kidnapping and the media's "schadenfreude" exposing his scars.

In addition, Wang Dehui has never been exposed in public and in the media. The public is extremely unfamiliar with Wang Dehui's face, which is convenient for the kidnappers to hijack.

So, of course Wang Dehui is the most ideal 'meat ginseng'.

Lin Zuhui is not worried about kidnappers eyeing him, after all:

One, he was kidnapped, no one raised money to redeem him, and he was not married;

Second, although he is rich, he is a stock in the eyes of outsiders;
Three, he is not only rich, but also powerful. His power has his own "media influence" and the big bosses he has made friends with.

Fourth, the most important thing is that he firmly believes that if he erupts, he can completely wipe out the kidnappers, and his body is a secret weapon.

Of course, he still attaches great importance to his own security. He has a bodyguard team of eight people and advanced foreign security equipment.

Regarding the reconstruction of Deep Water Bay No. 75, Lin Zuhui specially asked New Times Real Estate to form a responsible team; as for the required funds, including the 4500 million for the purchase of the original site, he obtained a loan of 8000 million by mortgaging the shares of Wanhui Media to pay.

As for the 1.3 million funds in his hand, he then started to buy the September futures contract;
He had to eat enough to eat before the August [-]th disaster; otherwise, his future development would be restricted.

Although it is not very difficult for him to come up with hundreds of millions of cash now, but in fact, that amount of money is nothing. The four major families are already worth tens of billions; a high-quality building is more than 10 billion. He even bought a building None of the money.

Meanwhile, the Hang Seng Index started rising on July 7, rising 21% in a week.

Lin Zuhui guessed that the market should be coming.

In his memory, it rose to 2500 points at the end of the year, but now it is only over 1800 points, and it is time to enter a skyrocketing period in the next five months.

The rise in the stock market will not only drive up his personal wealth, but even several of his companies will benefit endlessly.

Compared with traditional businessmen, Lin Zuhui's biggest advantage is that he can use the stock market to raise funds, and stockholders and investors are also very popular with him.

So the coming of the big market means that his company should also develop.
