Chapter 230: I'll Give 300 Million (Two in One)
"The Group is divided into two major sectors: Gaojin Real Estate and Gaojin Finance. At its peak, the total market value of the entire group was very impressive. The total market capitalization of these two listed companies suddenly skyrocketed from HK$30 billion to HK$300 billion, with a price-to-earnings ratio of more than 300 times. Zhang Xiaohui said in detail.
"And then?" Lin Dingqiang was even more puzzled after hearing this market value, "How did it collapse?"
This stock market myth was completely disillusioned in the afternoon of 2015. The market value of Gaojin Financial decreased by HK$92.1 billion, and Gaojin Real Estate fell by HK$35.6 billion. Pantone owns about two-thirds of the shares in the two companies, which means his personal wealth has shrunk by more than HK$80 billion that afternoon. β
After hearing this sensitive point in time, Lin Dingqiang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Although I don't know if 117 Building has any bends in the mainland, but five years ago, Hong Kong stocks did set a record of plummeting more than 2,000 points in a single day.
First, due to the water collection of the United States, in addition to the 50% depreciation of the ruble, the currencies of the real, ringgit and rupee are also depreciating, and the Hong Kong stock market is significantly affected by the overall valuation of emerging markets.
The second is that the mainland's policies have also been out for a while, and what their actual effect is, this will affect the market trend.
The third is that global oil prices have fallen continuously since June 2014, when the price of crude oil was only half of what it was in June. The decline in oil prices has been a certain boost to economic development, but the excessive decline in oil prices has made investors more worried about the impact of falling oil prices on the overall economy. This is also evidenced by the increase in short-term safe-haven demand, which led to the fact that safe-haven assets such as the yen and U.S. government bonds were sought after at the time.
Finally, coupled with the intensification of anti-corruption efforts on Hong Kong Island, this carnival of capital gradually turned into a catastrophe, and many people held the idea that everything would be nothing, so that when it bottomed out, the Hengsheng Index failed to return to the points before the crash.
Therefore, after experiencing this shock, Gao Jin is powerless to succeed this building, which can be regarded as a super building.
Zhang Xiaohui saw that Lin Dingqiang didn't say a word for a long time, and asked, "Boss, are you listening?"
Lin Dingqiang responded: "Yes." Got it. β
"Okay, Boss. β
After hanging up the phone, Lin Dingqiang didn't feel happy, and he didn't know how much money it would cost to complete the cap in the face of this giant for a while.
"Manager, at the current pace, how much more money do we need to complete the project?" Lin Dingqiang asked.
The project manager took out the construction schedule and the fixed cost risk control book, and introduced it to Lin Dingqiang: "It has cost nearly 24 billion yuan to repair this building, and it is expected that there is still a difference of 4 billion." β
Lin Dingqiang silently calculated in his heart, although his current net worth has exceeded 10 billion, most of them are fixed assets, and the money that can be moved is only about 300 million.
300 million and 4 billion, literally only 37 apart, but to count the zeros behind, it's a bit scary.
How to find the source of the 4 billion is the first problem that Lin Dingqiang has to solve.
Whether to use his own land in the suburbs of Beijing as a mortgage, whether to use this building as a mortgage, or to find more partners to invest in the capital, the pros and cons are debatable.
"Is this house sold?" Lin Ding asked coldly.
The project manager shook his head, "The boss ran away at the beginning, and the policy also stipulates that it cannot be sold before the cap, so the first floor has never been sold." β
"I remember that the current developers can't sell the drawings for money?" Guan Lan said suspiciously: "Why didn't it work at that time?"
"It's not clear. The project manager replied.
Lin Dingqiang thought for a while, "That's it, I'll send someone over to connect with you then." You don't have to worry about money, just complete it on time with quality and quantity according to your construction plan. β
"Okay, Mr. Lin. β
After the project manager left, Lin Dingqiang looked at the people in front of him, thought about Guan Lan's words again, and decided to try to see if he could get the pre-sale license first.
He took out the phone and called Zhou Guangyao, and after explaining his intentions, the secretary general seemed to be in urgent need of this political performance project, and decisively helped Lin Ding make an appointment with the leader of Jincheng in charge of this matter.
"Two, I may not be back to the capital for a while. After hanging up the phone, Lin Dingqiang said to Er Li: "The plane has been loaded, let you run for nothing today." β
Li Jianhu smiled slightly: "It's okay, if you don't go back, I'll be the old Confucian's car back." β
"yes, we're all friends. You don't have to see it that way. Li Chengru said.
Lin Dingqiang glanced at Guan Lan again, "What about you?"
"Your wife has given me a death order, and she wants to take care of you. Guan Lan said with a smile: "If you don't leave Jincheng, I won't return to Beijing." β
"Alright, you'll come with me if you're tired. We'll get things done and come back. β
At this time, Wei Jinghan said to Li Chengru: "Old Ru, my agent called me just now and said that there is a commercial performance here in Jincheng. I'll go first. β
"Okay," Li Chengru didn't take it seriously, "contact me when you return to Beijing." β
"Okay. β
Several people separated under the 117 building, Er Li returned to Beijing in a Mercedes-Benz, while Lin Dingqiang, Guan Lan and Wang Liushun went to the agreed meeting place, and Wei Jinghan took a special car and left.
Lin Dingqiang, who was sitting in the car, was always thinking about how to persuade the leader to hand over the pre-sale license to him, as long as he had this certificate, he could use the money from the sale of the building to complete the building, so that he would not have to do any mortgages, let alone win over other partners, so as to achieve self-digestion.
Waiting for the car to come to the gate of the Jincheng Housing and Construction Committee, it was almost twelve o'clock at noon.
Lin Dingqiang got out of the car and stood outside the hall dialing the phone provided by Zhou Guangyao.
"Hello, I am the person in charge of Building 117. I've arrived at your unit. Lin Dingqiang said politely.
"Mr. Lin, wait a minute. The person on the other end of the line responded, "I'll come down right away after I'm done with what I'm doing." β
"Ahh β
After hanging up the phone, Lin Dingqiang quickly checked the famous restaurant in Jincheng on his mobile phone, and it has been a tradition of Chinese people to talk about things at the dinner table since ancient times. In Lin Dingqiang's view, to invite such a person to eat, the dishes are secondary, and the most important thing is to pay attention to privacy.
Looking around, and he was not familiar with Jincheng, Lin Dingqiang set his sights on several five-star hotels. He also made a special call to inquire, and only after learning that the Renaissance Binjiang Hotel had VIP access, he booked a private room.
About fifteen minutes later, the person Lin Dingqiang wanted to invite came.
Zhong Yongchang, who is in his early fifties and has few strong grasses on his head, is the leader of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Commission, and after receiving Zhou Guangyao's call, he has actually guessed what Lin Dingqiang wants to do.
After the two met, they couldn't help but shake hands in a clichΓ© manner, "Mr. Lin, I've been waiting for a long time." β
"Just arrived for a while. Lin Dingqiang warmly invited: "I have simply prepared a table, Zhong Ju, and please move." β
Zhong Yongchang looked at his watch and responded: "I have a meeting at 1 o'clock, don't bother." Let's deal with it at the stir-fry restaurant across the street from the unit. β
This kind of answer made Lin Dingqiang a little surprised, but it was not good to be stubborn, "Okay, Zhong Ju has the final say!"
Zhong Yongchang took Lin Dingqiang and the three to the stir-fry restaurant across the street.
There are about 7 or 8 tables in the stir-fry restaurant, and after taking a seat, Zhong Yongchang ordered vegetarian assortment, Bazhen tofu, fried green shrimp, jar meat and fish fillet, and Lin Dingqiang calculated the price in his heart, less than 200 yuan.
Guan Lan is also very discerning, and has been helping a few people with chopsticks and pouring water.
After taking a sip of water, Zhong Yongchang said slowly: "Mr. Lin, I am both surprised and happy that you can take the plate of 117." β
Lin Dingqiang responded: "Jincheng is a beautiful city, in addition to the precipitation of history, there should be new landmarks belonging to it. I was attracted to 117 several times when I passed by, but upon closer inspection, the building turned out to be psoriasis. After thinking about it, I decided to move forward. β
Zhong Yongchang listened to Lin Dingqiang's beautiful words, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and asked, "Mr. Lin, I have a question." β
"Bell Bureau, excuse me. β
"You don't have any selfishness?"
Lin Dingqiang looked at those shrewd eyes, and knew that this Zhong Bureau wanted to listen to the truth, and said confidently: "Selfishness, of course." The annals of the business world are unreadable, and the wealth is like a passing cloud, but a building that can be ranked among the best in the world will always be remembered. In the same way, its facilitators and builders will be remembered. β
Zhong Yongchang laughed, he didn't expect that the young Lin Dingqiang was not only rich, but also very likable in his speech, not like an ordinary nouveau riche or a gentleman.
"Mr. Lin, what you said can be regarded as in my heart. Zhong Yongchang recalled: "Back then, I approved this project. In the beginning, it was a spiritual fortress in my heart, and I thought that one day when I retired, I could look up proudly when I passed by 117. But now, it has become the most eye-catching nail in the city, and I dare not look at it again. β
Lin Dingqiang took the teapot and refilled Zhong Yongchang with a glass of water, Zhong Yongchang continued: "Actually, I have already guessed the intention of your visit today, you want a pre-sale license, right?"
"Yes, Jongju. β
"This matter is not difficult, wait until tomorrow I will bring someone to the scene to take a look first, and then you come to our department to complete the formalities, and I will give you the certificate." Zhong Yongchang paused, and then said: "The leaders above have spoken, and they want to give you the green light all the way, and I, as the person in charge of this area, will naturally not embarrass you." β
Lin Ding was overjoyed, he didn't expect this matter to be solved so easily.
"Then I'll thank Zhongju in advance. Lin Dingqiang thanked.
Zhong Yongchang waved his hand and added, "However, I have one condition. β
You say. β
"Give us a deposit of 500 million first. Zhong Yongchang was also afraid that Lin Dingqiang would become the second high-ranking gold, so he left a trick to make a move, "This money will be placed in the financial account, and after you cap it, the original amount will be returned." β
From a gap of 4 billion to 500 million now, Lin Dingqiang's head doesn't seem to be so big.
When you think about it, the difference of 200 million is not a big deal.
"No problem. Lin Dingqiang said with a package ticket: "Within 10 working days, I will definitely pay the security deposit in place." β
Zhong Yongchang smiled at this time, and after picking up the teacup, he said, "Mr. Lin, thank you." β
"Thank you for your help, I must let you see the completed 117. β
"Not for me to see. Zhong Yongchang responded: "It's to let the people of Jincheng see it." β
Lin Dingqiang slapped his head a few times, "Yes! Yes! I'm happy and confused! Live up to the hopes of the people of Jincheng!"
Waiting for the dishes to be served, in between meals, Lin Dingqiang asked about the modification of the format on the top two floors, Zhong Yongchang did not object after listening, and agreed to Lin Dingqiang's request.
In Zhong Yongchang's view, this is a transaction with Lin Dingqiang, since it is operated within the scope of the policy, there is no need to twist and pinch.
A simple lunch is always more satisfying than a five-star hotel, and after a few people have eaten, Zhong Yongchang didn't even give Lin Dingqiang the opportunity to settle the bill, and paid for the meal out of his own pocket.
Lin Dingqiang sent Zhong Yongchang to the door of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Commission, and after a few more greetings, he just wanted to get in the car, but was stopped by Guan Lan.
"Liuzi, you get in the car first. Guan Lan said: "I'll say a few words to your brother Qiang." β
After Wang Liushun returned to the car, Guan Lan asked jokingly, "Master Qian, where are we going now?"
Lin Dingqiang thought that Zhong Yongchang would lead the team to the construction site tomorrow, and said, "Let's go to the Renaissance Binjiang Hotel and rest for a while." β
Guan Lan then said, "Master Qian, can I discuss something with you?"
"Grandma, please have something to say. Lin Dingqiang responded jokingly: "Don't take a bite of a master." β
Guan Lan couldn't wait to turn around, "I want to buy two floors in your building, but you must give a good price!"
Lin Dingqiang smiled: "This unit price hasn't come out yet, how can I calculate it with you?"
"What is it!" Guan Lan's eyes rolled and he said angrily, "That's it." I'll give 300 million, and when your unit price comes out, you will give me as much as it should be!"
After Lin Dingqiang heard Guan Lan's words, he was even a little moved in his heart, which was equivalent to Guan Lan lending money to himself without interest.
"I'll give you a little more when the time comes. Lin Dingqiang smiled and said, "It's all interest!"
Guan Lan smiled: "I can remember this!
"Definitely!" Lin Dingqiang paused, and then asked, "By the way, why did you buy a house?"
Guan Lan laughed out loud and said half-jokingly: "Don't you know this as a dowry?"
Lin Dingqiang took a deep breath, "Then isn't my sixth brother making a fortune?"
Guan Lan raised her head proudly, "Everyone else treats Liuzi as a stone, but he is a treasure jade in my heart!"
"Okay, Baoyu!" Lin Dingqiang opened the car door, "Let's go!"
The two got into the car, and Wang Liushun asked, "Brother Qiang, are we going now?"
"Let's go! Lin Dingqiang leaned on the back of the back seat and said with relief: "You have also stepped on the accelerator for a day, and after checking in, our brothers will go to wash our feet and relax." β
Wang Liushun replied, "Okay." β
When Guan Lan heard this, her smiling face immediately tensed, "What's good, can't you wash your feet in the hotel?"
Wang Liushun said as he opened: "Then you are together." β
Guan Lan shook her head and said proudly: "It's pretty much the same!"
Lin Dingqiang looked at the two flirting and scolding in the front row, and said sourly, "I didn't put vinegar in the dish at noon today!
"I've been eating your and Xin Qing's candy, you always have to eat someone else's once, right?" Guan Lan smiled from ear to ear, "Yes, Liuzi?"
"That's right!" Wang Liushun's voice was unusually firm, "If you eat too much sugar, you are easy to lose your teeth!"
