Chapter 260: Don't be a PLAYBOY

When he woke up, Li Hualong saw Liu Minchen holding the child and breastfeeding.

"Chenchen, you're awake." Li Hualong smiled, "I didn't hear the child's crying just now. ”

Liu Minchen turned around and looked at Li Hualong with a smile, and said: "It's convenient for me to get up and go to the bathroom, it's convenient to play, and when I was about to go to bed and go back to sleep, Sheng Yu woke up and cried, so I picked him up." The crying is not loud, and it does not wake you up. ”

Liu Minchen walked a few steps with the child in his arms, sat on the bed, and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?" ”

"Okay, I had a good dream." Li Hualong smiled, got up, and rubbed his cheeks.

"What are you dreaming about?"

"I dreamed that Sheng Yu was admitted to a prestigious university."

"What university?"

"I didn't remember, I just remembered that it was a prestigious university, and our family was very happy." Li Hualong said with a smile, stared at his wife for a moment, and asked, "Chenchen, when are you going to go to work?" ”

"Next month, early next month, I want to go to work."

"Don't want to rest a few more days?"

"No, I've rested enough." Liu Minchen smiled, "Yesterday, I saw that the two high-rise buildings in the middle of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel and the Holiday Inn Central are connected, why is it so designed?" ”

"There are many reasons, the main reason is that I want to set up the headquarters of the two companies in these two buildings, and I will often come to work in these two companies in the future, and it will be more convenient for the high-level to be connected."

"Which two companies?" Liu Minchen asked curiously.

"An insurance company, an investment company." Li Hualong replied.

"What's the name of these two companies?"

"One is called Allianz Insurance Group, and the other is called Umbrella Company."

"Umbrella?" Liu Minchen laughed, "This is not a good word, the first time I hear this word, I will think of collusion between officials and businessmen." ”

"The name of this company is very particular. In the future, this company will invest in monopolistic industries such as cargo ports, telecommunications, and electricity, and I will operate this company to go public, and after the listing. Issuing a large number of convertible bonds to the public of Hong Kong to ensure their interests and allow more people to follow the profits. ”

"Like you promise that the United Land share price will continue to rise?"

"It's a little different, there is a time limit to buy convertible bonds, and when the deadline is up, you can choose to exchange the bonds for stocks, or you can exchange the bonds for cash. Investing in convertible bonds yields more than keeping money in a bank, or even higher than the interest rate on a loan. ”

"Oh!" Liu Minchen responded as if he didn't understand. He looked down at his son in his arms, smiled slightly, and asked, "This convertible bond, after buying it, can't be realized for a long time?" ”

"Once bought, it can be liquidated, and investors can buy and sell convertible bonds through the stock exchange. I sold Starlight to Wharf and got some convertible bonds, which are not tradable. It's not the same. ”

"It's interesting." Liu Minchen smiled.

"Financial investment is inherently interesting." Li Hualong said with a smile.

Liu Minchen stared at Li Hualong for a moment and asked, "Are these two companies established?" ”

"I registered these two companies long before the construction of these two buildings began, and they were incorporated in early 1994."

Early 1994. Lee bought the 29-storey building from the Chinese Property Company, and in June of the following year, he demolished the two buildings of the Chinese Bank and Pedder Hong and rebuilt them on a 29-storey high. With the addition of 2 basement floors, there are 31 floors in total and 5 floors at the base. Following the neoclassical architectural style of Pedder Hong, the base is a shopping mall, and the 24 floors above the base are glass curtain wall buildings, which will serve as the headquarters of Allianz Insurance Group when completed.

As soon as the demolition of China Bank and Pedder Bank was completed, Li Hualong will use the Jardine Matheson Building, which was exchanged for the Lane Crawford Building, and the building next door, to demolish and merge into a piece of land, and rebuild a building with the same design as the Allianz Insurance Building, which will become the headquarters of the umbrella company in the future.

The Allianz Building and the Umbrella Building are identical in their architectural design and connected by a flyover on the upper floors of the two towers, so Hong Kong people often refer to the two towers as the Petronas Twin Towers, although the Twin Towers are not the official name, but the name is widely accepted by the public.

"Are these two companies doing business?"

"It's open. Allianz's main customers are me, Abba, Big Brother and Hu's employees, and they have not taken the initiative to do business for the time being. As for the umbrella investment company, shares in several companies have been purchased. ”

"Do you expect that after these two buildings are completed, they will be demolished and rebuilt in a few years?"

"In 60 years, it should not be demolished and rebuilt. The construction cost of these two buildings is very high, and the details are very exquisite, hehe, I estimate that in 60 years, the design of these two buildings will not be outdated. ”

"If you don't rebuild in 60 years, you can't not redecorate in 60 years, right?"

"Sixty years...... For a long time, it is impossible not to redecorate for such a long time. Li Hualong smiled, "When the umbrella building is completed, Alibaba will open a jewelry and watch flagship store in this building, and when designing it, I specially reserved a large store with an area of more than 13,000 square feet for Liu Alibaba." ”

"Single-layer, or multi-layer?"

"Three floors."

"I remember you said that the design of the two buildings is the same, and which company will use the large store in the other building?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, but I may provide it to Playboy."

"How much profit did Playboy make last year?"

"More than 40 million Hong Kong dollars."

"So much?" Liu Minchen said with a little surprise.

"The current Playboy companies include Playboy Magazine in the United States and Playboy Magazine in Japan."

"There are playboy magazines in Japan, too?"

"Yes, it's a different version of Playboy magazine from the United States, and a few months ago, I heard that Playboy magazines in Japan sell more than 100,000 copies a month, which is a good result." Li Hualong smiled, "Maybe next year, Playboy will be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange." ”

"How much do you own in this company?"

"Thirty-five percent is the largest shareholder."

"Oh!" Liu Minchen responded.

Li Shengyu was full of milk and looked at Li Hualong with wide eyes.

"Sheng Yu, what are you looking at?" Li Hualong smiled and gently pinched his son's cheek with his fingers.

"Giggles!" Li Shengyu laughed.

"What are you laughing at, you don't want to be a playboy when you grow up, do you?" Li Hualong said with a smile, "Dad hopes that when you grow up, you will be a good man with dedication." ”

"You are so attentive yourself, why do you always want to let your children be good men who are dedicated to their hearts?" Liu Minchen joked with a smile.

"Do not you think of the old saying, 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you?'" Li Hualong asked with a wry smile.

"That's right." Liu Minchen smiled slightly, lowered his head and kissed his young son's forehead, and said softly, "I also hope that he can be a dedicated and good man when he grows up." I hope he can meet a good woman and love him for the rest of his life. ”

"Do you like Sheng Yu to find a strong woman to be his assistant in his career, or to marry a good wife who takes care of the children at home?"

"Uh......" Liu Minchen smiled and muttered for a moment, "I don't express my opinion, what kind of wife to marry, Sheng Yu decides for himself." Back then, when you married Sister Mengmeng, Abba and Aunt didn't have any opinions, right? ”

"No, they said, as long as I like it. Hehe, the main Meng Meng is very good, Abba and Aunt can't find anything wrong. Li Hualong kissed Liu Minchen on the cheek, "You are the same, very good." Let's stop talking, I'm going to brush my teeth and wash my face......" (To be continued...... i1292
