The Birth of the Hong Kong Island Family.

Lin Zhichao, who returned to Hong Kong, rushed to Japan without stopping to participate in the launching ceremony of two oil tankers.He took the opportunity to negotiate a lease contract with the Japanese shipping company, using a one-way short-term lease contract.

In fact, this era is full of one-way short-term rental contracts. In the previous life, Bao Yugang had developed a "bad habit". Because of this, even Dong Haoyun said that Bao Yugang was "what kind of ship king is he".

Now, Bao Yugang has been deprived of his great opportunity, and Lin Zhichao has become a lot tougher.

Of course, he will also consider long-term rental, but it must be long-term rental when the price is high, not long-term rental when the price is low.

Need an optimal benefit, this is the strategy of global shipping.

In the Japanese shipping company, Lin Zhichao didn't mention the "two [-]-ton oil tankers" at all. He was already preparing to sail the ship to the port of the Gulf of Aden to stand by.

The eight 5.6-ton large oil tankers are planned to be leased to European and American companies, because the freight price can be higher.

Of course, future oil tankers will be supplied to Japanese shipping companies, especially tankers built in Japan; and Japanese shipping companies will take the initiative to lease them, because this is a mutually successful business.

Why don't Japanese shipping companies build ships in their own country, instead of ships from Hong Kong?

original:

First, the loans granted by Japanese shipbuilding companies are low for foreigners and high for locals, which is called supporting the domestic shipbuilding industry in the euphemistic name.In fact, Japanese shipbuilding began in 1956 and has been the world leader for 40 years. It was not until after the Asian financial crisis that South Korea caught up with Japan.

Second, the labor cost of Japanese shipping companies is already much higher than that of Hong Kong (about three times), so the operating cost has also increased.

Third, Japan has strict control over foreign exchange, and domestic shipping companies are unwilling to raise a large amount of funds to buy second-hand ships or new ships.

Of course, there is one more thing to add now: Lin Zhichao's business style-stable, faithful, and trustworthy.

Because of this, all companies that have cooperated with Global Shipping will choose to continue to cooperate.

In mid-June, Hong Kong.

"Boss, Swire Pacific is going to sell the 'Far East Head Office Building', which is the building located at No. 1 Connaught Road near the sea." Hu Zhaoxu came to Lin Zhichao's office and reported a big news.

He felt that the boss might be tempted, and the boss also has the strength to win.

After Lin Zhichao heard the words, he was not immediately moved, but asked: "Is the Dadong Telegraph Office nearby?"

On the contrary, Hu Zhaoxu was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "It seems so."

Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "That won't work, it's a bit risky! If you buy it and rebuild it, wouldn't it be a troublesome thing if the Dadong Telegraph Bureau said that the sound of piling should not be heard, so as not to affect their signal transmission."

Hu Zhaoxu was dumbfounded, the boss thought too much, but he couldn't refute.

In fact, Lin Zhichao can also buy it, and then start piling when the technology matures in the future.And such a good piece of land is also a good thing to have in your hands.

However, it is difficult for Lin Zhichao to buy this land unless he takes a loan.

Nowadays, the commercial land in Central is basically 1200~1500 Hong Kong dollars per square foot. No. 1 Connaught Road may have 3000 square feet, and the price is already nearly [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

Squeeze, Lin Zhichao also has some, no matter how bad he is, he can get a loan.But Lin Zhichao does not intend to invest. He cannot raise money to acquire high-quality land when he sees it. He also needs to consider diversifying his investment and still have sufficient cash flow in his hands.

Then, Lin Zhichao asked: "What's the situation outside now?"

Hu Zhaoxu naturally knew what the boss was asking, and immediately said: "Everyone is scrambling for land. Chen Detai bought a lot of spinning mill sites, Li Kangjie bought the North Point Power Plant site, and Liao Baoshan bought the West Ring warehouse site. The land price has been raised to 130~ At 150 Hong Kong dollars per square foot, everyone still doesn’t care, and they don’t want to pay anyway.”

Talking about this, Hu Zhaoxu was faintly excited, and he could imagine the enthusiasm in the market.

No money, that's right, owners of land and properties are willing to sell at a high price, and allow the real estate company to pay only a 10% deposit, and then pay in installments.A piece of land worth 300 million yuan only needs a deposit of 30 yuan. After the real estate company wins it, it will quickly prepare for the uncompleted sale, and it can be registered for sale in two or three months.

So these people's wealth is getting bigger and bigger. Of course, their danger is also coming step by step. For example, they earned 3000 to 5000 million this year, but next year they may acquire [-] million land in their hands.

Of course, the chances of these people being outright bankrupt are low.At most, it's the money earned, and it's just spit out.

"We still have to focus on our real estate projects, and make money first!"

"Okay. The day after tomorrow, the real estate 'Pengcheng Building' we cooperated with Fuhe Real Estate and Yusheng will go on sale, and the work is ready!"

It was originally planned to be sold in May, but the speed of approval of drawings by the Hong Kong government has slowed down. Fortunately, it is only half a month late.

"Well, everyone is still buying it now, and it will definitely sell out soon."

"Yes"

Chatted for a while.

After Hu Zhaoxu left, Lin Zhichao shook his head with a regretful expression.

He was not regretting the loss of a piece of commercial land, but regretting that No. 1 Connaught Road could not meet his urgency!
It turned out that Lin Zhichao liked the "Shangri-La Hotel" brand very much, and also wanted to develop a five-star hotel in Hong Kong, which would be as famous as Peninsula Hotel and Mandarin Hotel (opened in 1963).Although the hotel does not make money like an office building, it is the foundation of a family.

But suffering from the lack of suitable land, it is very distressing.

The land of the Miramar Hotel on Nathan Road (opposite Kowloon Park) has a full 8.8 square feet, but the location is a bit poor. If it can only be regarded as a four-star hotel, it would be a waste of his efforts. Especially the waste of the 'Shangri-La Hotel' signboard.

Therefore, if No. 1 Connaught Road had no problem with piling, he would win it no matter what.

As far as Lin Zhichao knew, Fu Laorong's family bought No. 1 Connaught Road and planned to build a five-star hotel; they were informed by the Dadong Telegraph Bureau that they could not use sound piling to avoid affecting the transmission of telecommunication.

Fu Laorong's family had no choice but to search for technology. It was not until a British construction company solved this problem that the hotel was built. It was the early 70s.And that British construction company is the predecessor of 'Golden Gate Construction', one of the four listed construction companies in Hong Kong.

In any case, if Lin Zhichao had to wait for so many years, he would definitely not be happy.

Not to mention 1 Connaught Road.

Lin Zhichao is currently in an unsatisfactory state for the hotel business of the 'Lin Family'.

The Miramar Hotel site on Nathan Road is definitely going to be rebuilt into a first-class hotel, but it can only be branded with a new brand to prepare for a four-star hotel.

The "Shangri-La Hotel" also had to be built in the 60s, but the first choice could be Orchard Road in Singapore. Although it is not close to the sea, you can seek a large-scale, tropical rainforest-style hotel.

In the 70s, he returned to Hong Kong, snatched the land of Jardine Building (Kangle Building), and built a five-star hotel on the coastal land in Central.Or consider the land in the east of Tsim Sha Tsui, which is also land near the sea.

That's all!
At the same time, it was only then that Lin Zhichao remembered that the office building leased by Global Shipping and Changjiang Industrial belonged to the Qiuyi Building belonging to Fu Laorong's family.As for the Qiuyi Building, Fu Laorong's father's name has the word "Qiuyi".

This Fu Laorong is very smart, knowing that sooner or later there will be a challenger to Omen's gambling cards, so he arranged for the transfer of property early and came to Hong Kong to purchase property.

Those who talk about "retribution" are just the fantasy of the poor and the bottom. Those who sold opium and opened casinos back then, it's okay for others to be so rich that you are poor and have no offspring (can't marry a wife).

Fu Laorong is just a gangster in society, and later opened a casino. In the 21st century, when the third and fourth generations of other people's families come out, you will find that other people are not only super rich, but also social elites (highly educated, high achievement).

Sham Shui Po, Fu Wah Street.

Lin Zhichao, Li Gaofu and Yu Chengwan's real estate project 'Pengcheng Building' is for sale today, as expected, the house sales are still very hot.

To be honest, Lin Zhichao had also doubted before that the annual supply of residential units in the past two years was 1 to 2. Are there really so many buyers in Hong Kong?

Soon after that, he no longer doubted that there are indeed many poor people in Hong Kong, but there are also many rich people.After all, how many warlords, dignitaries, elites, etc. moved from the mainland back then, and they all brought their wealth; and now, with the purchasing power born of Hong Kong's industry, coupled with the funds flowing into Hong Kong from Nanyang, it can be said to be full of purchasing power.

Moreover, many people hold the idea that buying a house is an investment, and they buy several houses, even a dozen or dozens of houses.

"It seems that there is no problem if it is sold out in two or three days. Sham Shui Po is a location that many Jinshan Abo likes to invest in. This project is also more profitable than expected. It is estimated that there is a problem of 200 million Hong Kong dollars." Lin Zhichao commented.

When Yu Chengwan heard this, his heart almost jumped out, and he paid 60 Hong Kong dollars, making a net profit of [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

"Lin Sheng, you really supported me this time and allowed me to participate in this project. Moreover, you are still my savior, and I don't know how to thank you. At noon today, I asked Wu Bing to cook a meal. Where are you going to eat with me?"

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "It wasn't you who told me about this project, I wouldn't be able to earn the 80 million yuan. Don't be too polite, we are all friends, but it's okay at noon today, just drop by, so I'll try my sister-in-law's craftsmanship."

Li Gaofu flattered him and said, "Yu Sheng, don't engage in drinking games. Lin Sheng doesn't like to drink at noon. He is busy with things every day!"

Yu Chengwan likes to drink, while Lin Zhichao only drinks at night.Li Gaofu said so, which also shows that he and Lin Zhichao are very familiar.

In fact, Li Gaofu is not at all curious about Lin Zhichao's praise of Yu Chengwan. He knows that Lin Zhichao likes to be kind to others and support others, including him, Li Zhaoji, etc. Many people have received Lin Zhichao's favor, and people in the wig and plastic industries do not need said.

Yu Chengwan said: "That's right! Lin Sheng's career is so big, he must be busy, so just have a light meal."

Lin Zhichao waved his hand and said, "It's not because I'm busy, but I just can't eat it at noon. By the way, do any of you buy the shop on the first floor of Pengcheng Building? You can use the share to deduct it!"

Yu Chengwan wanted it, but he was afraid that Lin Zhichao and Li Gaofu would like it, so he kept silent.

Seeing this, Lin Zhichao said: "Then Lao Yu will buy it. We have a lot of shops like this. What do you think of Lao Yu?"

Yu Chengwan quickly said, "Okay, thank you Lin Sheng and Li Sheng for your success."

A shop on the first floor costs about 2-3 floors, but Lin Zhichao doesn't like the shops here at all.

To be honest, most of the one-story shops in his hands will be sold in the future.After all, it is rare to take care of a small shop. He will own a shopping center and a mansion in the future, so why should he keep the shop under the residential building in his hands.

At noon, I came to Mrs. Yu Chengwan'er's house in Telford Garden, and sure enough, I prepared a sumptuous lunch. Needless to say, the preparations for this lunch probably started yesterday.

"What's the girl's name?"

"Uncle Lin, my name is Yu Sally."

Lin Zhichao was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that after the death of Yu Chengwan in the previous life, the eldest wife took her children and left for the United States. The second wife probably didn't get much money, so she could only stay in Hong Kong, and gradually declined; so that Yu Chengwan's The youngest daughter became a porn star.

Yu Chengwan was not only patriotic (anti-Japanese), but also affectionate. It is said that in his previous life, he was shot to death in order to save Wu Bing and his children, dealing with gangsters.

Lin Zhichao also admires such a person.

At the dinner table, Lin Zhichao said, "Have you caught the murderer who attacked the farm last time?"

Yu Chengwan shook his head and said, "The police haven't given me any news. I don't think there will be any results."

Lin Zhichao asked again: "Old Yu, who do you think it is?"

Yu Chengwan said: "If it's for money, maybe my former subordinates participated; if it's for other reasons, I'm afraid it might be Taiwan Island."

At this time, Li Gaofu said: "It doesn't have to be Taiwan Island. I offended that side so hard back then, and I didn't see the spies take action. I think the chances are high for money."

Lin Zhichao thought for a while and said, "Not necessarily! After all, you are a businessman, and the Taiwan spies are also concerned about the Hong Kong government. Lao Yu is a general who has lost power, and he used to like to talk about other people's bad points, so it may not be that the Taiwan spies have the intention of killing people with knives. So, if you are in business, don’t get involved in those things, it won’t change anything.”

Yu Chengwan may not be convinced by others, but he is absolutely convinced by Lin Zhichao, and immediately said: "What Lin Sheng said is true, because of this mouth, it almost brought disaster to the family. From now on, I will never talk about you again." Half of the sentence is gone."

At this time, Wu Bing walked up to several people and said to Lin Zhichao, "Lin Sheng, is Telford Garden safe?"

After finishing speaking, he took the initiative to pour water for Lin Zhichao.

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't worry! It's absolutely safe to hide in the city. Telford Garden has security patrols and is also close to the police station. The gangsters are so rampant."

The darkness of society lies in the corners, at least in Hong Kong that Lin Zhichao saw, the clubs are not NB at all.He has only seen the scene where the big boss of the society is cautious in front of him, for fear of offending.

Hearing what Lin Zhichao said, Wu Bing boldly picked up the teacup and handed it to Lin Zhichao.

"Lin Sheng, drink some tea!"

Seeing this, Lin Zhichao had no choice but to take it, took a bet, and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law! But sister-in-law, don't worry, Lao Yu is a general, so there is no problem protecting you and the child."

"Thank you for your good words! Lin Sheng is a noble person, so it must be a good thing to speak up."

Wu Bing's move was not mainly worried about his own safety, but to curry favor with Lin Zhichao, so as to gain an absolute position in Yu Chengwan's heart and overwhelm the big house.

Sure enough, after Wu Bing left the dining table a few steps, Lin Zhichao said to Yu Chengwan: "Old Yu, sister-in-law is your noble person. If sister-in-law hadn't asked a question last time, some things have already developed in a different direction."

Yu Chengwan quickly said, "That is!"

After lunch, Lin Zhichao and Li Gaofu got up to say goodbye.

"Master, how is that Pengcheng Building selling? How much can you share?" Wu Bing hurriedly approached and asked.

Yu Chengwan said proudly: "In short, it is more than expected. I heard from Lin Sheng that there may be a profit of 200 million. I own 30% of the shares, so it is naturally 60. However, I have already bought a shop on the first floor, probably We have to post all the profit share.”

Wu Bing said pleasantly: "It's a good thing to have a shop, and the rent collection is so practical."

Both were immersed in joy. (end of this chapter)
