Chapter 435: The Day of Reckoning has Arrived

How much money Gu Biao made in the Vancouver property market, I am afraid it is difficult for outsiders to calculate.

From the middle of 1982 to the end of 1983, within 18 months, the average house price in Vancouver finally increased by 80%~90%. This data does not seem to be very exaggerated.

But the so-called "average" is actually pulled down by many white self-occupied people who hold on to their homes and will not sell them regardless of ups and downs.

Even if a small white citizen's broken house has risen from $40,000 to $100,000, because his family only has this one, he wants to live in it, and he doesn't plan to leave Vancouver, then he will be "subject to price increases".

In contrast, in the past year and a half, the average increase in the house price of the part of the active property that has actually been sold has reached more than 150% - as mentioned earlier, Gu Biao and Huo Shao not only took advantage of the average rise in housing prices themselves, but also took advantage of the differences in values between whites and Chinese on the question of "what is a good house", and made a lot of profits.

For example, white people think that houses with subways are poorly secured, while Chinese people think that houses with subways are good houses and convenient.

White people feel that the city center is not quiet enough and mixed, but the Chinese follow the thinking inertia of Xiangjiang, thinking that the more "prosperous" the location, the more expensive it should be. As for those who feel that it is too convenient for blacks to come and the security is not good, they can rely on super high-rise luxury apartments with high-quality access control systems and security to solve the problem.

The difference between yellow and white values can form at least 30% of the value depression space, which further pulls Gu Wei's actual order price comparison from 180% to 260%.

When he entered the market in June '82, Gu Biao had a principal of 200 million and a 40% leverage loan of 300 million US dollars. plus Huo Shao's total principal/loan of 300 million US dollars.

These 800 million, after a year and a half, became 2.1 billion US dollars, and the harvest is extremely gratifying. By the end of November 83, 1.1 billion of the 2.1 billion had been cashed out, and another 1 billion would not be able to receive 900 million until the Spring Festival of 84, and the last 100 million would be unsalable for a while.

Further according to the investment distribution ratio, Gu Biao's 2+3 became 1.3 billion, and Huo's 300 million became 800 million.

In addition, Gu Biao wants to remove the financing cost, that is, a year and a half of interest. In addition, other financial costs, hidden interest, and befriending powerful people ensure that the steps of the United States and Afghanistan to create "black swans" are synchronized.

All of these add up, and there are still expenses of 100 million US dollars, and interest alone accounts for more than half.

After repaying the loan, the capital of 200 million US dollars invested by Gu Biao at the beginning became an option of 500 million cash and 400 million accounts receivable, making a net profit of 700 million.

With a 160% increase, it can make 3 times the profit, no doubt because Gu Biao boldly used leverage to speculate, and only had a 40% principal ratio.

In addition, Gu Biao's resistance to Kong Shangzhong also played a very huge role in the profit of this speculation - it can be said that if Kong Shangzhong is not defeated, Gu Biao and Huo's will not receive a total of 2.1 billion US dollars, but 1.5 billion.

After all, if there is one more opening and option to divert the panicked fleeing crowd, then everyone's idea of paying a high price will be greatly curbed. And the extra part is pure profit.

It can be said that Gu Biao is killing Kong Shangzhong for himself, and his net profit has changed from 300 million to 700 million.

By the way, he also contributed to the country. In another time and space, there were about 50,000 Xiangjiang people who were scared out around 84, and more than 200,000 people.

Now it has been forced to about 20,000 households by Gu Biao's layout, and two-thirds of the rich people who originally planned to emigrate have been retained. (Because the housing prices in the number one place to escape are speculated too high, people who don't have enough money can't afford to escape, and after calming down, they will find that the mainland is also good for Xiangjiang, so they don't want to run)

According to later statistics, the 20,000 elite laborers who ran away were mainly speculators in the financial industry, and some were afraid of lawyers who would be useless after the civil law system. These people will run away if they run, and the mainland does not need them.

And most of the more useful talents such as technical talents, artistic creative talents, and doctors, who could or could not run, have remained.

Later, Vancouver's urban history has also changed completely, and even in the 21st century, it has not inherited the "low value-added backward production capacity" transferred by Hollywood, and it is useless to let Mayor Luo Pinxin jump up and down to attract investment. Because the Hong Kong media elites who were supposed to come to Vancouver in history didn't come at all.

Hollywood's low-end production capacity has been transferred everywhere, and a considerable number of it has been transferred to Lanting Cinemas on the other side of the ocean, just because of the inextricable business connections, infrastructure and cheap and competent talent teams there.

Of course, this is all a story after at least a dozen years.

……

The night before returning to Xiangjiang, Gu Biao was bored in Watsonton's apartment, so he calculated all the accounts by himself.

When he got the conclusion, he was also quite emotional in his heart.

It seems that he occasionally makes money by manipulating the international trend and speculating on things, and the income can be three to four times that of his diligent business in the same period.

For example, three years ago, when the total income of his electronics industry was only 20 million US dollars, because of the Iran-Iraq war and oil futures, he made 70 or 80 million yuan.

Three years later, his electronics industry expanded tenfold, and the total revenue of the electronics industry over the years finally reached 200 million, and as a result, taking advantage of the historical trend of Xiangjiang-Vancouver, he made 700 million yuan, which is three and a half times.

The virtual economy is always three or four times faster than the industrial money, which is too demoralizing.

(There is no doubt that, by the classical definition, "finance" is the virtual economy, and the Internet is not.) For a long time in China, everyone thought that the Internet was a virtual economy, which was misunderstood and slandered by people with ulterior motives. )

But now that Gu Biao has a vested interest in the virtual economy, he will be selectively blind for the time being, and he won't think about these unpleasant things.

On Thursday, December 8, early in the morning, Gu Biao was escorted by bodyguards to Watsengton International Airport, and then stopped in Tokyo and flew to Xiangjiang.

I expect to stay in Xiangjiang for two or three days, and then fly back on Sunday.

A few days ago, he also mobilized tens of millions of dollars worth of funds and got Xiangjiang, wanting to see if there was anything that could be missed by the dog traitor Kong who was forced to auction because of bankruptcy this time.

There is no difficulty in capital scheduling, because the real estate business in Vancouver was originally a joint venture between Gu Biao and Huo's. Gu Biao is responsible for creating black swans and international situation orientation, and Huo is responsible for specific operations.

As long as Gu Biao transfers the money to Huo's account in Vancouver, Huo's can give him the same amount of liquidity at any time in Xiangjiang.

To tell the truth, Gu Biao's total fixed assets and working capital have just climbed to the $1 billion level, and the rest are intangible assets such as technology and brand.

Compared with tangible assets, Gu Biao's family property is still not as much as the Huo family, and it is not as good as the top four families in Xiangjiang. Therefore, the private funds of wealthy businessmen in Xiangjiang can cope with the allocation of funds.

We still need to work hard.

Of course, if Gu Biao lists Tiankun, the situation will be completely different, analogous to the peak of Atari's stock market value last year, with a scale of 30~4 billion US dollars.

But since Gu Biao has sufficient self-owned funds to expand his business and has no financing needs, why should he go public, and he doesn't plan to sell his shares, which are like floating clouds for him, they are all false.

Because of the time difference, when Gu Biao arrived in Xiangjiang, it was already Friday morning on the 9th. In order to reverse the jet lag, Gu Biao took a nap for seven or eight hours in the second half of the voyage as usual.

When getting off the plane, facing Han Ting, who came to pick up the plane, she could still maintain her energetic demeanor.

Han Ting didn't talk nonsense with him either, beckoned him to get into the car as soon as they met, and then handed him a long list in the car.

"It's ...... Oh, the list of collateral that Kong Shangzhong is going to be forcibly auctioned by HSBC?" Gu Biao glanced at it, and he understood, and smiled and praised, "The intelligence work is good. ”

After greeting Han Ting, he looked carefully.

At the top of the auction is a hilltop mansion estate at 30 Pak Ka Road.

The house occupies an area only less than the charter king's mansion. , and compared with Sir Shao, the Li family, and the Zheng family, it is not much better, it is completely the same level.

As for the architectural style, they have their own merits, and there is nothing to say - if Gu Biao wants to buy it, he will definitely have to build a new construction project after buying it. After all, it is too obscure to live in the old house of the bankrupt household as it is, so you have to break the old and build a new one.

Gu Biao himself is an atheist, but most of the other wealthy businessmen in Xiangjiang believe in feng shui, and Gu Biao needs to take care of the confidence of his cooperative allies and follow the local customs.

The large mansion on Baijia Road, according to the construction area of less than 8,000 square feet (that is, more than 700 square meters), plus the garden/platform of more than 5,000 square feet, the price in the 2010s is more than 1000000000 Hong Kong dollars.

If it is the price after the return of 97, it is about 2~300 million Hong Kong dollars. (Housing prices in Xiangjiang rose in the early years, so they rose 5 times in the new century, not as fierce as the mainland), and in the mid-80s, it was about five times cheaper than 97, and it could be done with only 50 million Hong Kong dollars.

However, Kong Shangzhong's old nest, the area is far from the so-called "Baijiadao large mansion" can be summarized, that is, the existence that can be ranked in the top 5 of the entire road, roughly the same level as the 28th held by the Hutchison Whampoa of the Li family in later generations - that is, the total area is as much as 50,000 feet, which is equivalent to 3~4 times the aforementioned market.

In later generations, even if Ma Feng bought a house in Baijia Road, he didn't buy that big. Because Hutchison Whampoa No. 28 has realized that no one can afford it, it has been dismantled into 7 medium-sized units with an area of 8,000 square feet and sold.

Therefore, if Gu Biao wins it now, he will definitely be 3 times the size of the mansion that Ma Feng went to Xiangjiang to buy in the future. By 2015, the market is estimated to be 5 billion (but there is no market, no one will take over)

In other words, the value of this residence to 97 is close to 1 billion, and the current valuation is more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and the starting price of HSBC is set at 100 million 2, hoping that someone will be willing to take over as soon as possible.

After the collapse of Kong Shangzhong, due to the sharp decline in the price of animal husbandry assets and real estate fluctuations in the whole New Zealand, the gap caused to HSBC was about 20~3 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Just selling Kong Shangzhong's main manor, which is worth more than 200 million, is definitely not enough to pay it back. Fortunately, the rich have a lot of real estate, so Kong Shangzhong, in addition to Baijiadao, more than a dozen other properties in Xiangjiang have also been auctioned, as well as two high-end brand shopping malls, and a large number of luxury items such as jewelry collections.

However, other real estate and commercial buildings, Gu Biao is not interested. He just bought it for himself, and he didn't want to flip the house anymore.

After all, in this place of Xiangjiang, if you pinch it for 30 years, it will appreciate 30 times, and there is not much room for growth. If you go to the mainland, the same money will be invested in something promising for 30 years, at least hundreds of times.

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
