Chapter 0385 - The Victory Is Decided Is Useless to Struggle
After entering April 1982, the Hang Seng Index of Hong Kong has fallen from the highest point of 1,810 points on July 17, 1981 to about 1,400 points, and the real estate industry still maintains an optimistic attitude towards this.
Obviously, the vested interests who are stimulated by the windfall profits, ignoring the objective reality of the moment - the proportion of housing affordability, that is, the proportion of housing expenses in the income of college graduates, has been as high as 180%, in other words, young people with rigid housing needs to use nearly double their income to afford a house.
When a special commentator sighed for the vast number of young people struggling at the bottom in the popular social dynamics discussion program of Media Asia TV, it quickly aroused great resonance.
While people were talking about the real estate bubble, the newspaper reported the news that the Murray House lot in Central was sold to Bank of China for 1.1 billion yuan, and made a careful horizontal comparison with Hongkong Land's acquisition of the largest remaining piece of land in Central at a price of nearly 5 billion yuan.
Bank of China quickly confirmed the authenticity of the transaction and officially announced the purchase of the Murray Building site for HK$1.1 billion to build the future new headquarters, with an initial payment of 60 million yuan and the balance to be paid over 13 years at an annual interest rate of 6%.
This genuine news has caused a great psychological impact on everyone, and everyone can't help but ask what the real land price is like now.
More importantly, since the buyer is Bank of China, the proportion of the after-dinner conversation is naturally increasing in the real problem of 1997 in 15 years.
Just as some people have expressed their opinion that the transaction in the Murray House lot is a special case. It is a kind of overture by the British government of Hong Kong to Chinese mainland. It is not representative of the actual transaction situation of the real estate industry. The appraiser even offered a price of up to HK$2.5 billion to reflect the value of the Murray House site, and a bombshell news was published in the newspaper.
In 1980, Jianing Group, the new darling of the Heung Kong real estate industry, bought the Golden Gate Building from Jardine Matheson for nearly 1 billion yuan, and then sold it to Baining Shun Group for more than 1.6 billion yuan.
Jianing Group, the largest bubble in the real estate industry in Hong Kong. The source of its funds is not a Middle Eastern consortium, but Malaysia's U-Ming Finance, and this institution has illegally lent loans and has not disclosed the collateral to the public.
More importantly, the Jianing Group relies on loans to accumulate funds only on stocks whose prices are getting lower and lower.
I have to say that these financial means that in the original time and space, which are limited to margin financing and securities lending, are really a disaster at present, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as swaggering and cheating.
The stock market reaction of the Hang Seng Index fell sharply by 180 points. illustrates how the industry was surprised by this,
It can be described as the difference between the current stage of the development trajectory of the real estate industry in Hong Kong and the original time and space. That is, before the recession of international trade in the second half of 1982 and the political shock in September, Tang Huan kicked him hard in the ass two or three months in advance, and staggered to speed up on the road to collapse.
Originally, the Xiangjiang Securities Regulatory Office and the Merger Committee were engrossed in staring at Qinhe, who beat Jardine to the point of holding his head and retreating step by step, but he did not expect that the real estate industry and the stock market were in a mess, and he quickly appointed the securities regulatory commissioner Huo Liyi to investigate the operating conditions of Jianing Group, and Malaysia's U-Ming Bank reacted more quickly and sent a high-level flight to Xiangjiang.
When all parties were in a hurry, Qinhe announced that it had acquired a 20% stake in Hongkong Land and asked to join the board of directors to participate in the decision-making of the company's major affairs.
This kind of robbery while the fire is hot, for those who do not want Jardine, the representative symbol of British capital, to deteriorate, it is tantamount to taking a blow to the head.
At this time, Luo Bijian reacted like this, his eyes were dazzled, his ears were roaring, and his limbs were numb, and he almost suspected that he had a stroke.
Originally, according to the plan, Jardine Matheson turned over his family and sold his property, and he could still cash out a large amount of money.
But unexpectedly, the real estate industry in Xiangjiang suddenly entered the late autumn, and its value began to decline.
There are signs that the flow of shares of Jardine Matheson and Land to Qinhe has accelerated significantly, as evidenced by the announcement issued by the opponent.
As a result, the time left for Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land to save themselves is becoming more and more imminent.
Simon Keswick, who was in a rage, slapped the table and yelled at Newbijian, "Look at the structure of the bullshit serial ship you made, not to mention that the land has been dragged into the quagmire by the depression of the real estate industry, and even the Jardine is in danger." ”
The broken jar and broken Sniff sneered, "You speak so loudly, in addition to removing me from the position of chairman of the board of directors, can it have a positive effect on the current situation?"
The two were spitting at each other, and Zhou Mi, accompanied by his assistant, pushed the door directly into the conference room, and a large number of reporters who followed were desperately stopped by the security guards.
"Who let you in?" rebuked Simon Keswick with a gloomy face.
"Be mindful of your demeanor. Zhou Mi also replied with a stiff face, "I have the right to enter the board of directors of Hongkong Land, so naturally I can come and go here at any time." ”
"Don't think you're going to win, I'll go back to London for help. Simon Keswick gritted his teeth and threatened.
"Please. Zhou Mi made a gesture indifferently, "By the way, I heard that Britain has started a war with Argentina, and I hope someone can think of it to help you in this tense situation." ”
"It's just a small war, and the attention may not be as good as the top football league, it's not a big deal, you wait for me to come back with good news. Simon Keswick snorted heavily, got up and brushed his sleeves away.
"With such a short temper, we can discuss company affairs calmly and calmly. Zhou Mi's gaze fell directly on New Bijian.
"You've only got 20% of the shares, there's really nothing to be proud of, and we're going to do whatever it takes to get the 11% stake in and make all your plans fall through. "Newbie was strong in his spirits, and he robbed Zhou Mi with his words.
"I'd like to thank you for the structure of your chain boat, if you can't get started. It is also possible to change to Jardine. Any breach. We can afford to be with you. ”
Confident and thoughtful, he almost used this sentence to make Rubi vomit three liters of blood.
You know, the chain ship structure was originally a proud work of New Bijian, but I didn't expect to help a powerful opponent choose the attack point at will when the real estate industry began to collapse.
He slowly adjusted his breath before continuing to ask, "Why are you here?" What about Tang Huan, shouldn't this be the time for him to be in the limelight?"
"Mr. Tang is very busy, and the affairs on this side of Xiangjiang are not worth his attention all the time. Zhou Mi laughed, "Haven't you heard that his fleet discovered the Titanic, such a meaningful thing." The boss is definitely going to check it out for himself. ”
"Don't worry about anything else, isn't this news an April Fool's joke? Newwall snorted disdainfully.
"It seems that the huge work pressure has made you lose a lot of joy in life. And the news is also blocked. Zhou Mi shook his head, "Okay." I'll just tell you the news you want to hear, Mr. Tang is preparing to go to Japan, and a technology company participating in the stock swap plan is about to go public. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Jian looked at Nubijian, "You must know what this means, you don't need me to explain anything." ”
With the listing of technology companies participating in the share swap plan, it will inevitably make those who are the first to give away Jardine and Hongkong Land shares taste the sweetness, and this demonstration effect will be infinitely amplified in the current situation where the original form of the Hong Kong real estate industry is exposed and the bubble is bursting, attracting more imitators, making Jardine and Hongkong Land accelerate to fall into each other's arms.
"Simon Keswick returns to London, even if he can move to the rescue, it may not be too late; and I have heard that the various market frauds of the Jianing Group have a lot to do with the lax accounting audit of HSBC's Victorious Company, and I am afraid that HSBC is busy extinguishing the fire in its own backyard; in addition, the project of developing real estate in cooperation with Jianing involves billions of dollars, and it may fall into a new quagmire with the fall of Jianing. ”
I don't know when, the mouth kept being thoughtful, and he had already walked to the side of New Bijian, "Don't try to struggle, Jardine and Hongkong Land have completely fallen into the encirclement designed by Mr. Tang, and there is only one way to go." You should think about your future path, there may only be a month left. ”
"You are less alarmist, I have been in the business world for so many years, and I have my own criteria for judging the situation. Newbi waved his hand weakly, trying to keep the fly away.
"Well, let's talk about some of my hopes after I joined the board of directors of Hongkong Land. Zhou Mi sat down again, and said loudly: "Hurry up and stop your plan to sell assets to cash out, as for the small action of unlocking the serial ship, I can only say that Jardine and Land, none of them can run." ”
"If you want us to sit still, you can go in your dreams. Obrian reprimanded angrily.
"Then it's noisy, although my right to speak is not the biggest, but it is enough. Zhou Mi replied lightly, fully sure of the other party's posture.
……
"You're in a hurry to get on the plane. "Mi Xue, who was crawling, had a flushed complexion, her hair was scattered, she was biting the horns of the quilt in her mouth, and she was subconsciously looking for an excuse to beg for mercy.
"It's okay, private jets are a little bit more liberal. Tang Huan, who became more and more courageous, couldn't help but caress the jade plate in front of him while sprinting hard.
There are hundreds of memories in the mind, and there are hundreds of desires in the heart, and since you have enjoyed the power of the former, you must fulfill the obligation to satisfy the latter.
Tang Huan, who had his wish fulfilled, was naturally thoughtful and physically and mentally refreshed at this time, but the beauty under him was really unbearable.
After the endless crackling sound was over, Mi Xue, who was completely paralyzed as mud, couldn't help but complain lazily in her mouth, "Why are you in such a hurry, tossing people so badly, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to the stage play rehearsal." ”
"There's no way, if you don't eat such delicious food, I'm afraid that even if you leave Xiangjiang, you won't have the heart to do anything. Tang Huan, who was smiling, couldn't stop playing softly.
"Hurry up, don't really delay the trip. Mi Xue, who was shy, pushed Tang Huan a few times weakly.
"Okay, then you can get some rest. Tang Huan thoughtfully kissed Mi Xue's forehead.
After the man left, Mi Xue, who seemed to be scattered, looked at the curtains and sighed silently.
Although she knew that Tang Huan must be colorful in terms of feelings, Mi Xue was powerless to resist the powerful other party, and the general social psychological hesitation caused by the uncertainty of Xiangjiang's future also made her subconsciously want to find a big tree to live in.
Especially when she saw Sydney happily visiting the new house with her little sister Apple, this female star, who has always been clean and self-conscious in the entertainment industry, became more and more sure that her choice was completely correct.
"Brush up on your homework, especially English, especially when you go abroad. The elder sister told the two younger sisters bitterly.
"Don't worry. The reborn Sydney nodded again and again, and the little sister Apple asked curiously, "Are we going to the United States or Canada?"
"It's still being arranged, and there will be results in a little while. Mi Xue replied confidently as she looked in the mirror and used foundation to cover up a kiss mark on her neck.
The ghostly Sydney had already noticed her sister's abnormal behavior, so she teased heartlessly: "It seems that my brother-in-law and you are really in love, and I have stamped you with such an obvious stamp." ”
"No more nonsense, be careful I make you look good. Mi Xue blushed and glared at her sister fiercely, but then burst out laughing.
Women are always thirsty for a sense of security, and Xiangjiang's special background has fueled this emotion more and more, and Tang Huan, whether mentally or materially, can give Mi Xue, who attaches great importance to her sister's future development, the greatest guarantee, which makes her unconsciously put herself in the right position, and she will not have so much burden psychologically.
……
Tang Huan picked up the English newspaper from a few days ago again and looked at it a few times, and couldn't help but laugh softly.
Nowadays, the BBS culture in the United States is developing very rapidly, which often attracts the attention of traditional media.
On the eve of April Fool's Day, the largest BBS in the United States, the PBBS of Zheru America, appeared with a short and concise news, the Titanic, which had been silent for more than half a time, was discovered by a Fisher salvage company that launched a search.
Some traditional media, eager to create sensational news, quoted the news without much research.
Anyway, there was such a famous fleet that went out on this mission, and composed beautiful music for the trip, which was a huge hit after it was broadcast on CNN. (To be continued......)
