Chapter 703: Tout
Mr. Li stretched out his hand to the second brother again: "I met Mr. Sun again, thank you very much for coming." My invitation is a bit abrupt, to be honest, I've been very scared today, worried about the two of you. ”
The second brother smiled and said: "You are always joking, you are a senior, you gave us a chance to come to ask for advice, and we should be thanked." ”
Mr. Li looked at Zhang Xingming and his second brother's female companion and said, "What group is this, I have seen it, who is this?"
The second brother turned his head to look at the second sister-in-law and said, "This is my daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, this is Mr. Li, this is Mr. Li's son-in-law." ”
Zhang Xingming said on the side: "This is my sister-in-law, and our hometown calls my wife a daughter-in-law." ”
The second sister-in-law bowed slightly and said, "Hello Mr. Li, hello Mr. Li." Mr. Li returned the salute with a smile: "Hello." ”
Mr. Li listened to Zhang Xingming's explanation and understood what his daughter-in-law meant, and said with a smile: "Hello Mrs. Sun, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Sun, Miss He, please inside." ”
Entering the house, there is a large hall that can be said to be wide, with a hollow roof, facing the staircase up to the second floor, which goes up to the two sides and divides on both sides, and wraps around the side wall of the living room in a complete circle. Looking up, the third floor is also a slightly smaller circle, the middle of the whole four-story house is completely empty, and the top is a church-like roof, that is, the glass roof is painted with colorful paintings, which is transparent to the light and shadows, and has a strong religious atmosphere.
There were a few women dressed in formal clothes in the hall, and a few young people in formal clothes, each sitting around and talking, Mr. Li said to Zhang Xingming: "Mr. Zhang, let Miss He, Mrs. Sun and these two gentlemen have a look around and have some snacks, shall we go and sit inside?"
Zhang Xingming nodded and said, "Okay, the guest is as you go, Sister Juan, you can accompany the second sister-in-law to visit, this house is very beautiful." He Juanjuan nodded, took the second sister-in-law's arm and walked to the side.
Mr. Li led Zhang Xingming and his second brother to the other side of the hall, opened a solid wood relief door, half-twisted his body and raised his right hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Sun, please." Zhang Xingming walked in, the second brother followed behind Zhang Xingming, Li Chun and Tang Xin stopped by the door, and stood there one left and one right.
Mr. Li swept Li Chun and Tang Xin out of the corner of his eyes, and followed the second brother into the inside, and the eldest prince Li walked and closed the wooden door at the end.
The room was small, with a circle of solid wood chairs wrapped in dark brown calfskin around the walls. This kind of wooden chair of Westerners originated from our Taishi chairs in the Tang and Ming dynasties, including the production skills, which also flowed from us. But from a modern point of view, it is indeed people who do better.
There were already a few old people sitting in the room, one by one thin or fat, with gray hair but sharp eyes, and there was a momentum between raising their hands and feet, which could not be learned by hard learning, and it was a behavioral habit in their bones. Like Zhang Xingming over the years, he has been in contact with the handful of people at the top of the tower, and giving orders is daily life, and there is also momentum in words and deeds, and the second brother is slightly worse.
Entering the house, the group of super-rich businessmen sitting and talking all looked over, Mr. Li invited Zhang Xingming and his second brother to sit down, and said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Zhang, the chairman of Hexiang, and Mr. Sun, the executive director of Hexiang.
Mr. Cheung and Mr. Sun are the role models of our Hong Kong Island businessmen, based on the development of real estate and department stores in the mainland, and have become the largest commercial real estate developer in Asia, the largest department store, and the hotel logistics club and Asia's largest education charity fund, which is the best enterprise in the development of our Hong Kong Island in the mainland and even in Asia, and also the fastest growing enterprise.
Moreover, the two young gentlemen are the founders and wholly owned owners of the commercial aircraft carrier Hexiang. I've looked into it. He nodded to Zhang Xingming and said, "I'm sorry." Then he continued: "Mr. Zhang and Mr. Sun settled on Hong Kong Island through Hang Seng Bank in 83 to establish the Hexiang system, and at that time they bought a house and ran a company, bringing a total of 3 million Hong Kong dollars. Ladies and gentlemen, what was your fortune in '83? The Yangtze River had $8 billion at that time. ”
The rich men looked at each other, thoughtfully, and waited for Mr. Li to continue. Lao Li, as the Lord of John Bull and the head of the first consortium, still has a strong voice in the wealthy businessmen on Hong Kong Island. People didn't think he was going to invite everyone over to make a joke, because everyone was busy.
Mr. Li said: "The three million were earned by Mr. Zhang and Mr. Sun themselves, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Zhang is 15 years old this year, and Mr. Sun is 28. Before 79 years, the families of Mr. Zhang and Mr. Sun were not very wealthy, and they were the most ordinary working families in the mainland, poor and had many children. Mr. Zhang has three brothers and Mr. Sun has five brothers and sisters.
From '79 to '83, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Sun earned three million Hong Kong dollars on their own, and you all know what the political climate and market in the mainland were like at that time, and Mr. Zhang was six years old and Mr. Sun was nineteen years old that year. But I haven't found out your initial funds, nor have I found out the specific business content, Mr. Zhang, can you tell us about it? I'm curious. He turned his head with a smile and asked Zhang Xingming.
Zhang Xingming pulled his hair and said, "Yes, this is not something unsightly. My second brother and I scraped together less than 400 yuan at that time, which was equivalent to my father's salary of 21 months at that time, which was really a huge amount of money. At that time, private individuals were not allowed to do any business in the mainland, and it was illegal.
Of course, it's not a big deal now, at the time, it was really a big risk, fortunately, the second brother was more bold, and we were lucky and succeeded. Zhang Xingming turned his head and glanced at the second brother, who shook his head and smiled.
Zhang Xingming said: "As for the business, maybe the seniors really can't guess that the two of us made the first money by collecting scrap, from 79 to 82 years, the scrap products that have been collected for three years are to recycle Lese, metal Lese." That's it. ”
The room was full of shocked looks, this was really a business they couldn't have imagined anyway. Mr. Mu, who is familiar with Zhang Xingming, asked: "The mainland has such a huge market for waste materials?"
Mr. Zhang Xingming nodded and said: "You must know how much the population is, the recycling of waste materials is a big business, and there are many wealthy people abroad who are engaged in this business. ”
Mr. Li shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't want to say it, heroes are teenagers." In 83, two young gentlemen immigrated to Hong Kong Island to establish Hexiang, and then began to open department stores in the mainland, and later entered commercial real estate, by this year, 60% of the cities in all provinces in the mainland have Hexiang's commercial plazas and department stores, hotels, and logistics throughout the country.
Everyone should know that Henderson has real estate investment in the capital in the mainland, which is designed and planned by Hexiang itself, and all the funds are paid in advance by Hexiang. ”
