Chapter 520: The Hotel of Difficult Birth

On the morning of March 21, the news of the sale of six aircraft by Cathay Pacific Airways caused heated discussions among the citizens of Hong Kong.

Since today is Sunday, Li Guangyu did not go to work in the group today, and looking at the newspaper report, he couldn't tell how he felt. If it weren't for those few who intervened at the beginning, Cathay Pacific might have been bought by itself, and how could these planes end up in a fire sale now.

Li Guangyu himself knows some of the situation on Cathay Pacific's side, and he knows that Cathay Pacific will not survive for long if it goes on like this.

In terms of aviation scheduling, Li Guangyu really did not specifically target Cathay Pacific, in this regard, the Kai Tak Airport Management Company deliberately targeted Cathay Pacific, mainly because of the problems of these shareholders behind Cathay Pacific.

After Cao Weiqing read the newspaper, he said to Li Guangyu: "Guangyu, Wellcome Supermarket also implements Watsons's salary standard, and I am afraid that it will not be over in a short period of time. ”

Cao Weiqing handed the Xiangjiang Economic News in his hand to Li Guangyu and asked Li Guangyu to read the comments on him in the newspaper for himself.

There are three newspapers in the family, Xiangyu Daily is his own, and Li Guangyu of Industrial and Commercial Daily is a shareholder, only in this way Xiangjiang Economic News has nothing to do with the Li family, and only then will there be some comments about Li Guangyu.

After Li Guangyu took it, he looked at the news, and Li Guangyu didn't say anything about one of his comments, and there was no malicious attack or smear against him.

Li Guangyu said: "Don't worry too much about these, people also have opinions on some of our developments, and I really have no intention of ending such competition." The citizens of Xiangjiang should be grateful to us, they have been really enjoying the cost price for more than a month, and our major supermarkets are working as porters for them. I guess these citizens of Hong Kong hope that we will continue like this and never end it. ”

Cao Weiqing is also worried that the supermarket is not profitable now, as long as Wellcome falls, Hengyu Supermarket and Watsons will monopolize the market in Xiangjiang, and then they can lie down and make money, and it is not a big deal to give up this profit now.

Li Guangyu ignored this paragraph of his comment, and he paid attention to the following piece of news, which made Li Guangyu have some thoughts in his heart.

The internal liabilities of Regal Hotels and Paliburg, the listed companies of Eagle Group, were actually reported by the Xiangjiang Economic News, and Li Guangyu looked at the data above, and the internal finances of the two listed companies were already heavily indebted.

With the authority of the Hong Kong Economic News in Hong Kong, this should not be fake news, and the Hong Kong Economic News will not report false news in this regard.

Li Guangyu was thinking about whether to eat the Regal Hotel at this time, and as for Paliburg, Li Guangyu had no interest in it.

He originally wanted to eat Xiangjiang Shanghai Hotel Group, but this was taken by Zheng Yutong, and he himself was not good at making another move, and now that the Eagle Group is in crisis, this is a very good opportunity for him.

Cao Weiqing saw that Li Guangyu fell into contemplation again, and she could only wait, not to disturb Li Guangyu to think about the problem, she herself looked at Xiangyu Daily.

Li Guangyu thought about it for a while, but decided to take a break for the time being, before the British consortium was suppressed, Li Guangyu didn't want to have too much conflict with the Chinese family in Xiangjiang, as for the hotel problem, he could only think of a way later.

Li Guangyu knows that the Luo Yingshi family is definitely not very comfortable now, and after September this year, I am afraid that his family will be even more uncomfortable, and the property on the Xiangjiang subway station developed by Chen Zengxi is also a shareholder, and when the property market collapses, they will also suffer huge losses.

After Cao Weiqing saw that Li Guangyu came back to his senses, he asked Li Guangyu: "Guangyu, what are you thinking? ”

"It's nothing, I just saw something of value, but if we make a move, it's a little bit more than worth the loss, so let's forget it. Li Guangyu said.

Cao Weiqing didn't need Li Guangyu to explain that it must have involved the Xiangjiang family again, otherwise Li Guangyu would not have said this.

Cao Weiqing is too aware of the situation of these families in Xiangjiang, due to the oppression of the British-funded consortium in the past, these Chinese families in Xiangjiang are relatively united and jointly deal with the British-funded consortium.

It's just that now after the defeat of the British-funded consortium, some families have begun to stop following the previous practice and have begun to fight for interests.

Cao Weiqing took the Xiangjiang Economic News from Li Guangyu, looked at some of the reports behind, and after seeing the debt news of Regal Hotel and Paliburg, she understood the reason why Li Guangyu was stunned here.

Lee Kwang Woo's plan to establish a hotel group was made several years ago, but there has never been a chance to implement it. She also often heard Li Guangyu jokingly say to her that he would buy the Peninsula Hotel in the future, but Zheng Yutong's move, now there is no such opportunity.

This time, when he saw the Luo family's Regal Hotel in debt crisis, he was naturally a little moved, but the Li family and the Luo family did not have any grievances, and if the Li Group made a move on the Regal Hotel at this time, the reputation of the major families in Xiangjiang would not be very good.

Cao Weiqing said: "Guangyu, this is nothing, we will not be able to build a hotel brand by ourselves, with the influence of our Li Group, are you still worried that the hotel will not be famous?"

Li Guangyu said: "Let's take a look in the future, if there is no opportunity to acquire, we will build our own brand, as for the management personnel, when the time comes, we will borrow from Uncle Zheng." ”

Li Guangyu has received news that the acquisition of shares of Xiangjiang Shanghai Hotel Group has come to an end, and in the end, the Kadoorie family still did not protect the hotel group, but the price offered by Zheng Yutong was too high.

The Kadoorie family was already facing huge investment costs in the Tsingshan Power Station, and Li Guangyu was making trouble on the Heung Kong Carpet Company, so they finally had to choose to give up the hotel group.

The main reason is that the Kadoorie family's loans in the two banks have reached a peak that Shen Bi can give, and the two major banks are unwilling to lend to the Kadoorie family anymore.

This time, HSBC and Standard Chartered jointly lent HK$8 billion to the Kadoorie family, and they no longer dared to lend to the Kadoorie family without restrictions.

Although Shen Bi and George Laven know that once the Tsingshan Power Station is completed, the market value of China Power Group will definitely skyrocket, but it will be a few years later, and who can guarantee this situation now.

Even if Roland Kadoorie no longer wants to lose the Hong Kong Shanghai Hotel Group, he must make a choice, he now needs to ensure the rapid completion of the Qingshan power station, so as to bring him a lot of benefits, so that he can repay the current loan as soon as possible, otherwise the annual interest will weigh on his Kadoorie family.

Li Guangyu's own side only made some labor money on the side of the Xiangjiang Carpet Company, and when the Kadoorie family chose to give up the hotel group, they immediately repurchased part of the shares of the Xiangjiang Carpet Company, so that Li Guangyu's operation did not have much effect, and it was too late for Li Guangyu to make a high move.
