Chapter 295: Buyer's Bank?
…
"Interstellar Blunt Fetus 2", which Shao Yifu had high hopes for, handed over a result that made Shao Yifu vomit blood. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
What Shao Yifu can't accept the most is that he has really put a lot of effort into "Interstellar Blunt Tire 2" - the production fee of "Interstellar Blunt Fetus 2" alone cost him nearly 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and he also personally participated in the production of "Interstellar Blunt Fetus 2".
But the box office of "Interstellar Blunt Tire 2" didn't even reach five million!
Why is this happening?
Shao Yifu, who has been making movies for forty or fifty years, suddenly discovered that he Shao Lao Liu didn't understand movies!
"Interstellar Blunt Tire 2" hit Shao Yifu so hard that Shao Yifu had the idea of "it's better to leave the film industry just now" for the first time.
It is precisely because of this idea that Shao Yifu was able to lend the Xiang brothers the screening of "God of Gamblers 2" to the Xiang Brothers by Shaw Cinemas.
When Shao Yifu saw that even the junior Xiang brothers could barely withstand the crushing of the three predators, Xu Cun, Zou Wenhuai, and Lei Juekun, Shao Yifu had the idea of "it's better to leave the film industry just now" in Shao Yifu's heart!
……
Shao Yifu, who let go of the twilight of the hero, don't show it first, and the War of the Four Kingdoms continues......
In the face of the siege of the three fierce ~ films of "Best Partner", "Plan A", and "God of Gamblers 2", "The True Color of Heroes" is just like its name - standing at the peak of the film industry like a hero to accept challenges, showing its unshakable hegemonic nature!
"I waited three years, not to prove that I was more majestic than others, but to prove that what I had lost, I must take it back. ”
"I am God! God is the one who can control his own destiny!"
"I hate it when people put a gun to my head!"
"It's been a long time since I didn't be a big brother. ”
“……”
Almost anywhere in Xiangjiang, you can hear the classic lines in "The True Color of Heroes". Moreover, whether it is a student, a worker, a hawker, or a mixed club. They all have one more good, and that is to hold a toothpick in their mouths. According to incomplete statistics, in just one month, the sales of Xiangjiang toothpicks have increased several times compared with before. Along with the increase in toothpick sales, sales of sunglasses and trench coats - young people dressed as little horses can be seen everywhere in Xiangjiang.
……
Just when most people in Xiangjiang were focusing on the Four Kingdoms War, Xu Cun, who was in his hands on the victory, quietly moved his attention to the banking field.
Is Xu Cun rich?
Of course, he is the richest Chinese in the Xiangjiang area! Moreover, he still has more than 4 billion Hong Kong dollars in Swiss banks (the day before yesterday, Xu Cun used 950 million Hong Kong dollars to buy the old wing of the Miramar Hotel in the Tsim Sha Tsui Tourist Central District, which originally belonged to Jianing Real Estate, in other words, the old wing of the Miramar Hotel already belonged to Xu Cun and belonged to Huangtu Land. He said he had no money, and the ghosts didn't believe him.
But-
In Xu Cun's view, his more than 4 billion Hong Kong dollars are not enough to do anything.
Not to mention anything else, just to build the 75-hectare piece of land in the industrial park into the cinema Xu Cun had in mind, and there was no need to think about it without 20 or 30 billion Hong Kong dollars.
The Diwang and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island will be built into a plaza and office building that will make money every day, and it will not be possible without one or two billion Hong Kong dollars.
In addition, Xu Cun still owes HSBC and Universal Pictures a debt of US$170 million, which is also HK$1.5 billion at the current rate.
So, Xu Cun, who seems to be very rich, is actually very short of money!
For Xu Cun, it is not difficult to earn tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars.
But-
It takes time to make that money!
The construction of the two treasured lands, the Diwang on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel, must begin in a short period of time! Otherwise, according to the agreement signed between Xu Cun and the British Government of Hong Kong, the British Government of Hong Kong has the right to take back these two pieces of precious land.
Not to mention the two treasures of the land king and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel on the seaside of Hong Kong Island, which is the industrial park in Tseung Kwan O, if Xu Cun keeps standing in the pit and does not, the British government of Hong Kong will also take it back.
Actually,
It is also easy to build these three mega projects at the same time - as long as Xu Cun is willing to give up part of the profits, there will be countless real estate developers willing to help Xu Cun build these three projects, especially the two treasured projects of the Diwang and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island.
But—
In addition to being extremely lustful, Xu Cun's biggest shortcoming is extreme greed!
Therefore, he desperately did not want to share these three pieces of fat with other people!
I have no money, and I want to monopolize the two treasures of the land king and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel on the seaside of Hong Kong Island, as well as the industrial park in Tseung Kwan O.
In this way, there is only one way for Xu Cun - borrow money!
Borrow from whom?
Of course, you can't borrow from one or two people -- even if you add up the top ten richest people in Hong Kong now, you may not be able to get such a large sum of money.
Therefore, Xu Cun prepared to buy the bank, and then borrowed from the majority of depositors.
It is precisely because of this that Xu Cun has focused his attention on the large and small banks in Xiangjiang.
After agreeing with Zheng Haiquan, a senior staff member personally invited by Xu Cun, Xu Cun set his sights on a bank called 'Hang Lung Bank'.
Last year, the property market in Xiangjiang reached its peak, and then turned downward. The volatility of the property market has left many imprudent banks bankrupt or in trouble.
Xie Liyuan Gold Shop was founded in the sixth year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1867).
In the 70s, when the price of gold rose sharply, Xie Liyuan Gold Shop launched the "Thousand Feet Gold Accumulation Plan": members of the public could open gold accounts and buy and sell gold at the gold price of the day. After its launch, it was well received by Hong Kong citizens, and industry insiders estimated that Xie Liyuan Gold Shop took advantage of this to absorb more than 20 million yuan.
However, the paper gold launched by Xie Liyuan Gold Shop did not buy and sell gold in the market according to the needs of customers, and there was no large amount of gold reserves.
In August last year, the international gold price rose sharply, rising by nearly 1,500 yuan per tael of gold. Xie Liyuan Gold Shop was forced to replenish its position in the market, resulting in poor capital turnover, and had to close down on September 6 last year.
After the collapse of Xie Li Yuan's gold shop, there were rumors in the market that Xie Li Yuan had a close relationship with Hang Lung Bank, and some investors holding Xie Li Yuan's gold coupons went to Hang Lung Bank to ask for cash, but they were refused.
For a while, news of the bank's payment problems spread, triggering a run on Hang Lung Bank - within two days, nearly HK$100 million was withdrawn.
Fortunately, Standard Chartered Bank and Bank of China issued statements fully supporting Hang Lung Bank, and the run on the bank has subsided temporarily.
However,
The problem has not subsided. Two months later, Diners Club Finance was forced to liquidate because it owed a total of HK$650 million to a number of banks and could not repay. Two of Hang Lung's directors are also directors of Diners Club, so Hang Lung's solvency has once again been questioned. After that, a number of active financial companies in the market collapsed one after another, and the market was in a state of turmoil.
Founded in 1935, Hang Lung Bank is a long-established Chinese-funded bank with no relationship with Hang Lung Properties (Ronnie C. Chan).
In 1976, Zhuang Rongkun and Zhuang Qingquan, overseas Chinese businessmen from Fujian Province in the Philippines, acquired 80% of the shares of Hang Lung Bank.
Hang Lung Bank grew too fast in the 70s, and then over-speculated in the real estate boom of the past two years.
As a result, Hang Lung Bank at this time was in a turbulent situation, although there was a risk of collapse or even triggering a financial crisis.
It can be said that the current Hang Lung Bank has been mired in a quagmire from which it cannot extricate itself.
