Chapter 341: The Dog Takes the Mouse
More than half a month later, on March 3, the first phase of 14 buildings in Shatin City One was officially opened for sale, and the brothers Li Huawen and Li Huahu attended the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony of the new real estate, while Li Hualong, another important investor in the project, did not appear.
In recent years, the real estate developed by Li Hualong's company, no matter how many luxury real estate, when the opening was opened, he almost never participated in the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony.
After cutting the ribbon, the customers used the sand table and listened to the introduction of the sales lady.
Li Huahu saw many citizens surrounding the sales lady and took the initiative to ask about the situation of the real estate, he laughed, looked at Li Huawen, and asked: "Big brother, you said that 967 units can be sold out in a few days?" ”
"Ten years."
"Ten years?" Li Huahu was surprised, "I don't have the back of my ears, I can hear it clearly, did you mistaken?" ”
"I forgot to tell you, I discussed with your third brother, the first phase of the real estate project, only 500 units were sold, and the remaining 467 units were finely renovated and put on furniture for rent. It's not a rental, the price has been set, but the price is set very well, and it is estimated that few people will buy it. Hehe, you're not going to object, are you? ”
"I have nothing to oppose, I have already said before, how this project works is up to the third brother."
"It's fine if you don't object."
When leaving Sha Tin and driving to Yat Chung Yuen on The Peak on Hong Kong Island, Lee Wah-man and the Lee Wah Ho brothers chatted about a lot of topics.
"Since 1978, housing prices in Hong Kong have risen dramatically, like a rocket. Have you analyzed the reasons with the third brother? Li Huahu asked.
"We've talked about it. There are many reasons for this, both internal and external. ”
"Tell me about it." Li Huahu said with interest.
"Where to start...... Li Huawen smiled, thought for a moment, and continued, "The third child analyzed it very well, he said that the property market is hot, just like lighting a match. At the beginning of the match, a few straws were lit, and someone brought the dry firewood together, and the fire became even bigger, and then oil was poured on it. It's hard to put out fires. Let's talk about Tsim Sha Tsui East, from 1978 to 1981, in three or four years, land prices rose seven or eight times, and property prices also rose three times. The rise in land prices and property prices has stimulated the influx of a large amount of hot money, and even attracted Nanyang funds to enter the market in a big way. ”
"I know about this, I heard the third brother say, some real estate developers took the initiative to talk to him about cooperation, hoping to jointly develop Tsim Sha Tsui East, the eldest brother saw that the cooperation conditions they offered were very beneficial to him, so he agreed to cooperate, as if he had divided three or four pieces of land, and others jointly built commercial buildings."
The third said. When the property market was hot, he invented selling off-plan properties to make the property market even hotter. In recent years, 'selling off-the-plan properties' has become popular, and I often hear people say that speculating in off-the-plan properties is more profitable than real estate developers. ”
"It's not that exaggerated, is it?!" Li Huahu was surprised, he knew what "selling off-the-plan property" was all about, and he also knew that some people made money by buying and selling off-the-plan properties, but he didn't expect that buying and selling off-the-plan properties would make more money than real estate developers.
"If you think about it, you can buy an uncompleted property by paying a deposit of 5% to 10%. Speculation, possibly in a matter of days, can more than double the profit, for the next buyer to accept. The increase in total house prices was not significant. ”
"The government has not introduced a policy to restrict pre-sale properties and increase taxes on the transfer of pre-completed properties."
"There are policies above, and there are countermeasures below. Sometimes, real estate developers and speculators work together, and speculators buy and sell off-the-plan properties, as long as the real estate developers cooperate. How is it possible for the government to know whether the speculators are making money or accompaniment, and even who the speculators are. The third said that real estate developers raise housing prices in order to make more money, which is understandable, but it is a bit of a black heart to cooperate with speculators to push up housing prices. In recent years, several real estate companies under Lao San, my Jiu'an Group, and Abba's Evergrande Group, have refused to cooperate with pre-sale speculators when selling houses. ”
"It seems that in recent years, your real estate company has rarely sold off-the-plan properties."
"It's also true, you don't need to rely on buying off-plan properties to raise funds for the development of real estate." Li Huawen said with a smile.
"Hong Kong people are too strong in gambling, and I often see Hong Kong gamblers losing money in Macau casinos." Li Huahu sighed.
"If someone gives you money to the casino, you can steal the fun." Li Huawen quipped.
"Sometimes it's quite contradictory." Li Huahu smiled, "The third brother said that it is also a great thing to use the money from operating a casino to make money to contribute to society, if there is really hell, it will not let me go to the oil pot."
"I don't believe in ghosts and gods, let alone an afterlife."
"I'm not convinced." Li Huahu smiled, "However, it's good to do some good deeds to make yourself feel comfortable." ”
"In recent years, speculators have speculated on buildings and hotels, do you know?"
"I'm not a scholar who doesn't listen to things outside the window, the resale of the Golden Gate Building is making a lot of noise, can I not know?!"
"yes, if you don't know, I'm going to say you're lonely."
"I also read the article written by the third brother in "Ming Pao" that exposed the inside story of Jianing Real Estate Company, hehe, eldest brother, why is the third brother so well-informed?"
"If you want people to know, you can't do it unless you do. Many things that seem to be hidden to outsiders can actually be found out as long as they spend some money. ”
"At the beginning, how could the third brother think of Cha Jianing Real Estate Company?" Li Huahu asked again.
"I asked him the question you asked, and he said he didn't want to see investors lose confidence in the stock market."
"That's right." Li Huahu muttered, smiled, and asked, "Do you think that the third brother is 'a dog with a mouse and a nosy'?" ”
"Nope!" Li Huawen said affirmatively, smiled, and continued, "A grain of rat feces spoils a pot of porridge, your third brother is not only a major shareholder of the Stock Exchange, but also a shareholder of many listed companies, he found that there was a problem with Jianing Real Estate Company, and he stood up to expose it, which is good for stabilizing the stock market, and it is naturally good for him personally." It's not bad for others, it's good for yourself, it's good for others! ”
"The boss of Jianing Real Estate Company must hate the third brother very much."
"That's for sure."
"Fortunately, the third brother brings bodyguards with him every time he goes out, otherwise, I am really worried that the boss of Jianing Real Estate Company will hire the third brother after he is released from prison...... When I saw the third brother, I reminded him. ”
"He doesn't need to be reminded, he knows it in his heart. Over the years, he has advised us to be careful. ”
"Sometimes I think the third brother's personality is quite weird." Li Huahu said with a smile.
"If he was a normal person, he wouldn't be where he is today."
"Haha!" Li Huahu joked, "You said that the third brother is not a normal person, he is a monster, and I want to report to the third brother." ”
"Abnormal people are not necessarily monsters, and immortals are not normal people." Li Huawen rolled his eyes and said. (To be continued.) )
