The Birth of the Hong Kong Island Family.

Chapter 272 [The First Strike]

Kam Hing Properties.

Zhang Yuliang received his third brother Zhang Yulin and his eldest nephew Zhang Shouyi in his office.

Now Zhang’s real estate industry already has three houses involved—the first house, the third house, and the fourth house; he can only abandon the second house in his heart. outside.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with being a director, as long as you don't interfere in the company's affairs.

"Shouyi, you have to be optimistic about the sale of the site on Paterson Street! This matter is related to the issue of our capital return. The total investment of the project is as high as 4000 million. The return of funds is very important for the subsequent development of Jinxing Real Estate." Zhang Yuliang said seriously .

He has a plan to hand over this matter to his eldest nephew. If he can't do well, he can take the opportunity to transfer his eldest nephew to an idle department, or just appoint a director in the future.After all, I gave my eldest nephew the opportunity, so it's not against my mother's will.

After all, Zhang Shouyi was young, and he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by his fourth uncle as soon as he joined the company. He immediately said confidently, "Don't worry, the general manager. The real estate industry is booming now. It's no problem that the first two properties sold out in a short time."

Zhang Yuliang said with a smile: "Our Zhang family really has talents. Shouyi is so confident, I can rest assured that I will leave the sales to you!"

Then, he said to Zhang Yulin: "Third brother, you are still in charge of the things you are good at. You are in charge of Jinxing Real Estate's public relations activities, dealing with the government and banks."

Zhang Yulin didn't want to participate in specific matters at first, so he readily agreed to his younger brother's arrangement.

"I'm fine! It's just Yuliang, I heard you said that the investment in this project is 4000 million, you are really generous! How much money can Jinxing Real Estate make in this project?"

Zhang Yuliang was displeased immediately. How much money he made was his secret. His plan was to use Jinxing Real Estate to make money first, and then to start other companies in the name of gradually hiding the family assets. In the end, only he knew that How much.

"Not necessarily. According to the current market situation, the value of our 1400 residential units here must have a market value of 5500 million. If things go well, we can earn 1500 million."

There is no way, the sales situation is now in the hands of the elder nephew, so he can only reveal some.

In fact, the total investment of this project is less than 4000 million, of which the land fee is 2000 million; and it is not only the market value of 5500 million, after all, there is also a commercial part (one floor).

In general, earning more than 2000 million is almost the same.

Zhang Yulin nodded and said: "It seems that investing in real estate business is really very profitable. The decision made by the eldest brother back then was really very wise."

Zhang Yuliang was very upset when he heard it, and said: "During the Korean War, our four brothers have already participated in family affairs together, and working together is the reason for our Zhang family's success."

The implication is that the credit is not the eldest brother's alone.

Zhang Yulin immediately said, "That's right, working together is the key to our family's success, and the three of us will support this family in the future." After speaking, he looked at Zhang Shouyi.

Zhang Shouyi quickly echoed, "I will definitely assist the two uncles and make my own contribution to the prosperity of the family!"

Zhang Yuliang was uneasy, and always felt that he was being watched, but he could only agree, after all, the third brother and the eldest nephew had the old mother's will.Of course, he won't be willing to be separated from power, and he has to transfer the two of them out of power when he finds an opportunity.

Then, the three separated.

After Zhang Yulin returned to his office, with a smile on his face, the Zhang family finally united and returned to the years of the Peninsular War, where everyone worked together.

But since the eldest brother entered the real estate industry, he was basically in power alone, and the other brothers were outside the power.After the eldest brother died, so did the fourth brother.

Now, he finally got the imperial edict from his old mother, and he cherishes it very much, so he pushed his eldest nephew to the top position, and he is willing to do public relations for the family business.

On the other side, after Zhang Shouyi left, a gloomy expression appeared on his face.

"The family business was built by my father, and now fourth uncle, a daredevil, wants to take power alone, don't even think about it!"

"This time, with the support of my grandma and the support of my third uncle, I must do my best to drive my fourth uncle out of power sooner or later."

Afterwards, he was full of energy and decided to use reality to prove his talent.

He returned to his sales department, began to gather a few staff members, and said in high spirits: "Has the advertisement been published yet?"

A staff member said: "Log out!"

Zhang Shouyi said: "Then if you don't go to the scene, what if someone else comes to consult in advance?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at several staff members with a serious expression.

In his opinion, only majesty can restrain these people, so as not to bully him when he is young.

"There are still some preparatory work to be finished, we will go to the scene as soon as possible."

Zhang Shouyi dragged out a long "hmm", and then stopped talking, with a very good manner.

Suddenly, a staff member came in and hurriedly said: "Manager Zhang, the situation is not good. Changjiang Real Estate opened for sale today. The price is only 42.98 Hong Kong dollars per square foot, and you can still get gold."

After speaking, he handed a newspaper to Zhang Shouyi.

Zhang Shouyi was shocked immediately, because the price was 6 Hong Kong dollars cheaper than theirs, no, it should be 5 Hong Kong dollars, abominable .98.

He took the newspaper and looked, as expected, the signboard of "Buildings on the Yangtze River, all over Hong Kong and Kowloon" suddenly existed.

After a long time, he suddenly became anxious and hurried towards Zhang Yuliang's office.

"Fourth Uncle, look!"

"Call the general manager, this is the company!"

"General manager"

After Zhang Yuliang finished reading the newspaper, he was overwhelmed with shock, and then he said angrily, "What happened to your sales department? How did you leak the news?"

Zhang Shouyi's face turned dark immediately, but under Zhang Yuliang's majesty, he became afraid again.

"Did someone target Fourth Uncle specifically for you?" Zhang Shouyi lowered his head and said in a low voice, "This price is lower than [-]% of the market price at first glance, and you are still pumping gold. It is obvious that others are attacking us."

Zhang Yuliang was stunned for a moment before he discovered this problem, but of course he would not back down in front of his nephew, and said, "This is not a question about who. The mall is like a battlefield, and whoever it is will suppress competitors. The important thing is that you It actually leaked the news that we were going to open, which led to targeted measures by others."

Zhang Shouyi could only bite the bullet and said, "Then what should we do now?"

Zhang Yuliang said: "What else can I do! The advertisements have been made, and we can only sell them slowly. They like to lower the price, so let them lower it. If you don't make money, just hit the street!"

Asking him to reduce the price is cutting his flesh.Even if the sales are unfavorable these days, they can continue to sell after a while.

The next day.

Paterson Street in Causeway Bay is very lively, with a steady stream of citizens coming to view the property.

"Sir, are you here to see the house?"

It was obvious that a citizen was being targeted with a newspaper in his hand.

House sales advertisements in this era are all advertised through newspapers. Citizens take the newspapers and follow the address and phone number above to find Xinyi real estate.

"Yes, you are from Jinxing Real Estate?"

The salesman handed out a property brochure with a smile, and said, "We are from Changjiang Real Estate. There are many properties over there, which happen to be on sale today. The price is only 42.98, and you can get gold!"

The citizen said in surprise: "42.98 yuan, am I mistaken, it's so much cheaper!"

The salesman said: "Sir, you will know when you go and have a look. You should have heard of the reputation of Changjiang Real Estate!"

The citizen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and see your real estate first!"

This kind of situation happened all around Jinxing Real Estate.

Changjiang Real Estate directly started robbing people, of course it is not considered robbing, after all, it can be said to be handing out leaflets on the road, how can it be considered robbing!

At the same time, on the opposite side of Jinxing Real Estate’s real estate, Changjiang Real Estate put up a large-scale banner—an astonishing price of 42.98 per square foot, and you can also smoke gold; there are loudspeakers at every intersection, repeating the publicity.

After these tricks, the citizens began to rush towards the sales office of Changjiang Properties.

Zhang Yuliang and Zhang Shouyi looked at the desolate scene in the real estate of Jinxing Real Estate, and immediately felt sad.

"What's going on here, there's no one watching the building?" Zhang Yuliang said with a sullen face.

Zhang Shouyi was at a loss, and a little at a loss. After all, he was inexperienced.

Fortunately, a staff member came in from the outside and said, "The sales staff of Changjiang Real Estate are guarding the roads on all sides, and they have attracted all the people looking at the house to them."

Zhang Yuliang was dumbfounded, he could still do this, and suddenly felt scared for no reason.

The more Changjiang Real Estate did this, it meant that he had been targeted by that person, and others could trouble him without evidence.

"Have people keep ads in the papers and sell them slowly! When they're sold out, we'll be able to sell them!"

Zhang Shouyi asked tentatively, "Aren't we going to lower the price?"

Zhang Yuliang immediately said: "Whatever the price is, our price is the market price! Besides, if you lower the price, you can beat others!" After finishing speaking, he stared at his nephew fiercely.

Zhang Shouyi could only keep his head down and said nothing. Even though he was very dissatisfied with this fourth uncle, he didn't dare to show it.

But I have to find a way to tell my grandma about this matter. It is because my fourth uncle offended someone that what happened today happened.

Cheung Kong Industries.

Listening to Hu Zhaoxu's report, Lin Zhichao felt a little relieved.

Later, Lin Zhichao said: "If the two buildings are sold out, we need to disclose to others that we still have four unsold buildings. As for the time and price, there is no need to disclose.

Hu Zhaoxu's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "In this way, all customers who want to buy nearby properties will not buy the buildings of Jinxing Real Estate, and they would rather wait."

Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "Yes! The reputation of our two companies is very different. Changjiang Real Estate is a gold-lettered signboard. What is Jinxing Real Estate's reputation!"

Hu Zhaoxu said, "Yes."

In fact, in this wave, Changjiang Real Estate sold nearly 400 residential units, and this area will be saturated in a short time, making it difficult to sell at all.Furthermore, he intentionally revealed that there are still four unsold properties, and even more so, he did not give Jinxing any chance to buy real estate.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Jinxing Real Estate's properties can't be sold, it just means that it may take longer.Maybe a year, maybe even a year and a half.

And the real estate project of Jinxing Real Estate has already started construction, and the construction cost is at least 1500 million or more (eight buildings, the construction cost has increased); there is no return of funds here, but the construction cost here needs to be paid, as well as bank interest.

In short, letting the Zhang family be dragged down by this real estate can weaken their strength.

Of course, the assets of the Zhang family are nearly [-] million Hong Kong dollars, so it is impossible for them to lose money directly.

According to the strength of the Zhang family who built the Federal Building and the International Building in the early and mid-60s in the previous life, the assets of the Zhang family in the 60s were hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, and the Zhang family also had other properties in Central, such as Zhaolong Street number nine.

In this life, they don't even think about building one of the three buildings.

Although they can also invest in buildings in other places, as long as they are not in the central business district, the value will be greatly reduced, and the appreciation is not as good as that in the central business district.

The competition that took place on Paterson Street was soon known by people in the real estate industry in Hong Kong. Many people thought of the rumor about Lin Zhichao that happened some time ago. Combined with the current competition between the two, they immediately knew that Lin Zhichao suspected Zhang Yuliang Spreading rumors.

The boss does not necessarily need evidence to do things, so it will be difficult for the Zhang family in the future.After all, Lin Zhichao's strength and prestige, that is, the leader of the Chinese in Hong Kong, is not easy for a Zhang family who hardly has much reputation.

At the same time, many people are deeply disgusted by Zhang Yuliang's family spreading rumors.For a while, critical voices also poured into Zhang Yuliang's family, casting a shadow over the family.

McDonald's, Zhang's ancestral home.

Guo Geng put aside his thoughts of worshiping Buddha and held a family meeting.

After learning that the Zhang family had offended Lin Zhichao, he felt that the Buddha was no longer working, and his eyelids jumped up.

"Third brother, have you interceded with Chairman Feng Bingfen of the Wuyi Chamber of Commerce and asked him to reconcile the relationship between the two!"

Zhang Yulin smiled wryly and said, "Mother! President Feng Bingfen said, given Lin Zhichao's current status, what is the use of his words? It will offend Lin Zhichao instead. He let us handle it ourselves."

After learning that "Changjiang Real Estate is specially targeting Jinxing Real Estate", Zhang Yulin communicated with Feng Bingfen, hoping to clear up the misunderstanding. Zhang absolutely did not spread rumors.

How could Feng Bingfen be a lobbyist again, let Zhang Yulin solve it by himself immediately, don't make yourself angry.It is true that his father-in-law Jian Dongpu was kind to Lin Zhichao, but Lin Zhichao had repaid the Bank of East Asia long ago.

What's more, Lin Zhichao's current status in Hong Kong is equivalent to that of Jardine Matheson and Swire Pacific, and the Governor of Hong Kong will try his best to win him over.

How could he be willing to offend others!

Zhang Yuliang said at this time: "Mother, Lin Zhichao is unreasonably suspicious, and the rumors about him have nothing to do with me. If we show weakness, don't we take it for granted. What's more, he is not the governor of Hong Kong. As long as we don't break the law, he will also arrest us." It's beyond our reach."

Guo Geng looked at his younger son, his heart softened immediately, and he asked, "You really didn't do it!"

Zhang Yuliang immediately said: "I'm so stupid! This rumor is full of loopholes. Lin Zhichao has such a good relationship with the Hong Kong government and has influence overseas. Who would believe such rumors! I can swear that I definitely did not do it."

Guo Geng immediately said: "Indeed, mother believes in you! This goddamn Lin Zhichao is too domineering, and sooner or later there will be retribution!"

Zhang Yuliang nodded, and said, "That's right! As long as we play steadily, we don't have to be afraid of him at all, mother, don't worry!"

"Okay, that's the end of the story. None of you should gossip in front of me! If anyone dares to destroy the unity of the family, I will be the first to spare him." After speaking, Guo Geng looked at the second room Cui Xiuying warningly.

Cui Xiuying couldn't tell because it was not he who complained this time, but Zhang Shouyi, the eldest grandson of grandma.

But obviously, Guo Geng couldn't bear to blame his eldest grandson.

After the meeting ended, Zhang Yuliang returned to the company with a livid face.

"These people want to seize my power!"

"Third brother and Shouyi are in the company, and they are simply restrained. We have to find a way to let them leave. At worst, we need to set up another company and separate them slowly."

The office door rang.

"boss"

"How are the sales going?"

The person who came in was the deputy manager of the sales department, and now he had taken orders from him, the general manager, instead of directly reporting to Zhang Shouyi.

He wants to empty this big nephew.

"It's almost impossible to sell! I've inquired. Many people know that Changjiang Property still has real estate, so they would rather wait."

Zhang Yuliang immediately understood that this was Changjiang Real Estate's strategy, which was to prevent his own real estate from being sold.

"Hmph, they think we're going to be in trouble. They're so naive. I'll raise funds to finish this building, and at worst we'll sell it next year."

After all, the Zhang family's assets are close to 4000 million yuan. Although [-] million yuan of funds will be frozen in this real estate, it will not be fatal.

The only loss is the speed of return of funds and loss of some interest.

Of course, there is actually the issue of reputation, and a little deeper, it is the issue of luck.
