"Brother Yuquan, if you want to take a stake in Huayi Brothers, isn't it so easy to make Huayi listed before?" After hearing Lin Yuquan's investment and acquisition decision, the second daughter was inevitably surprised, and Liu Yifei asked out loud.

"Okay, although Huayi Brothers' approach is a little unpleasant, but we can't have a grudge with money, if we can get more shares from Huayi Brothers, although Huayi Brothers' successful listing will have an impact on Shuguang Films, but in general, we get more benefits, right?" Lin Yuquan smiled.

"That's not bad, how many shares are you going to invest in Yuquan?" Liu Shishi suddenly smiled.

"Of course, my words are that I hope that the more the better, but this is not determined by my will, it depends on how many shares Huayi Brothers are willing to give me." Lin Yuquan shrugged.

"What if the other party doesn't give you a lot of shares?" Liu Yifei's eyes were full of curiosity.

"Huh." Lin Yuquan smiled, his smile was unusually bright: "If that's the case, it's okay if you don't make that money!" ”

"Didn't you say you can't have a grudge against money? Why don't you want it all of a sudden. Liu Shishi smiled.

"Of course, you shouldn't have a grudge against money, but if the benefits you get are equal to the benefits you lose, or even far less than the benefits you lose, why do you want to do it?" Lin Yuquan chuckled and glanced at the time on his wrist: "Okay, it's not early, if there is any problem, let's talk about it tomorrow, rest early." ”

Since it was the afternoon of Kyoto time, as soon as he returned to his room, Lin Yuquan immediately called Ding Zhi to tell the other party his acquisition target and profit maximization requirements, and gave priority to the acquisition of Huayi Brothers. He wanted to see how many shares the Wang brothers were willing to give him, well, there was an inexplicable feeling of anticipation. It seems that no matter what the other party decides, it will not be bad for him, and it is just for him to make a decision in the end.

People are in good spirits at happy events, and the continuous good news during this period of time makes Lin Yuquan's mood very happy, even if he is very busy, he does not feel tired at all, and it is obvious that the good news in terms of acquisition is by no means the last.

"Oh. I've preliminarily screened out the islands I want, well, okay. You send me the information. After receiving Du Kefan's call, Lin Yuquan couldn't hide his surprise and said, private island, he has been waiting for a long time. Suppress the excitement in your heart. As soon as he came home in the evening, he immediately told the good news to his second daughter.

"Wow, so what are you waiting for? Don't know which islands they are? What kind of scenery does it have? Liu Yifei said happily, with a strong expectation in his tone, although there are also many news of private islands for sale on the Internet, but compared to the islands sold on the market, they only account for a very small part, but even if it is only a very small part. It's already dizzying to watch.

"Fool, don't you eat dinner? Wait for dinner. What we have is time to take a slow look. Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Well, let's hurry up and cook!" Liu Shishi nodded immediately and said, obviously impatient.

Simply made dinner, and as soon as he had dinner, Lin Yuquan returned to the room to open the email sent to him by Du Kefan at the urging of the second daughter.

In the midst of the global financial crisis, many of the super-rich, former super-rich and their former spouses are now trying to sell off some of their luxury assets, yachts, private jets, luxury villas, private islands, and active contacts with agents, Du Kefan has sent him a much larger list of high-quality private islands that meet the requirements than before the financial crisis.

According to Lin Yuquan's request, the list of private islands is divided into undeveloped large islands and developed vacation paradises, a total of 24 islands, most of which are located in the tropics including the Caribbean Sea, with beautiful beaches and warm climates, but considering the diversity of choices, Du Kefan and his agent specially attached islands from the United States, Canada, and the Mediterranean.

Among them, 16 islands have been developed, and after a simple screening by the three of them, 4 islands were left for further selection.

One is located in the Bahamas, Tianzhen Island, covering an area of 681 acres, about 12,200 acres, 2.75 square kilometers, the area is extremely large, the island has 6 beaches, 4 luxury villas of different styles, and its own private jet runway, the island is listed for 45 million US dollars, although the location is relatively remote, but there is an airstrip, there is a beach, for Lin Yuquan has no impact.

The second is still located in the Bahamas' Exuma Islands of Belle Island, the island covers an area of 349 acres, the area is not as large as the innocent island, but the value is much higher, 82 miles from Nassau, the capital of Panama, the island has three sandy beaches, two swimming pools, a tennis court, a completed airport runway, a staff house, complete wind and solar power generation facilities, two ultra-luxury villas.

Among them, the most valuable are undoubtedly the two villas, one on the beach, with an unbeatable sea view, with a total living area of 570 square meters, including four bedrooms, two living rooms, and five bathrooms. The other villa at the highest altitude is even more luxurious, with limestone, glass and logs as the main materials, a total area of 1,500 square meters, including a luxurious master suite and five guest bedrooms, each with a top-of-the-line bathroom, a restaurant, study, fitness center, bar, kitchen, home theater, and the investment in the renovation of the island alone is extremely expensive, which is why the entire island is listed for $120 million.

The third is James Island in Canada, which is home to American telecommunications tycoon and billionaire Kragg. McCaw, just 1.6 kilometres off the coast of Vancouver, was home to a World War II-era explosives factory. The island is home to an airstrip with a single runway, a dinghy dock and a flatfield hosted by golf legend Jack Brown. Nicklaus-designed private golf course, built in cedar wood with a 460-square-meter main house and four bedrooms, an entertainment center, a gym, two swimming pools, several staff rooms and six small guest houses, is listed for $70 million. Although it is not tropical and there are no beautiful beaches, it has to be said that the island is in a great location and the facilities are excellent.

Any of these three islands sell for a staggering price, almost the highest priced of any of the developed islands on the list. But you get what you pay for, and the three islands do have the capital to quote high prices.

"Well, what do you think is the better one?" Lin Yuquan smiled and looked at the second daughter.

"Just from the photos and the information. Of course Belle Isle is better, but the price is too high. Liu Yifei was quite distressed, after seeing the photos of Belle Island, she was immediately conquered by it, in terms of villas alone, the main villa on Belle Island is undoubtedly cooler and more beautiful than the Beverly Hills villa she is in today, but the price tag of $120 million is really amazing. What's more, she knew that Lin Yuquan was now in need of a lot of money for acquisition and investment.

Liu Shishi also frowned: "Yuquan, are the prices of these three islands too high, in fact, if we are just for vacation." There's no need to buy such a large island, and a few small islands that cost only a few million dollars are actually pretty good. ”

"Of course we don't have to go on our own vacation, but didn't I say that? In the future, it will be rented out to the outside world like Musar Island and used as an employee benefit. Lin Yuquan smiled: "What do you think of Belle Island?" ”

Same as Liu Yifei. He also thinks Belle Island is the best. The climate is warm, with sandy beaches, blue skies, lush vegetation, clear blue waters, and eye-catching and comfortable villas.

"It was nice, everything was almost perfect, no worse than the Musa we had been to before. But the price is also too high, also located in the Bahamas. Its area is only half the size of Tianzhen Island, but the price is nearly three times that of Tianzhen Island, although it seems that the scenery is more beautiful, the villa is more beautiful, but it is not so outrageous as the price of 75 million US dollars, from the point of view of cost performance, Tianzhen Island is significantly higher. Liu Shishi said.

"That's right, just looking at the information, such a price is obviously unreasonable, but to be able to ask for such a high price, there must be a reason, and we can't make a final decision based on the information alone, after all, buying an island is not a trivial matter, not to mention the cost of money, but also related to our vacation life in the next few years, just the movie editing will be completed soon, and we will personally go to the island to investigate." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

For Lin Yuquan's decision, the second daughter is naturally very much in favor, to buy a house to go to the real estate to see the house, not to mention to buy the island, these three islands are very expensive, even the cheapest innocent island costs 45 million US dollars, not to mention the highest price of 120 million US dollars on Bell Island, not to go to the field inspection will inevitably make a hasty decision.

After reaching an agreement, without any delay, the three of them continued to look at the list with great interest, there are a total of eight large undeveloped islands, and it has to be said that any of them is very high-quality.

One is located on Garro Island in New York State, USA, which is close to Kingston in Canada and Watertown in the United States, with an area of up to 2,000 acres, equivalent to 8 square kilometers. Not only is the area large, but the island is rich in natural beauty, about 45% of the island is covered with forests with a variety of trees, the remaining 55% is almost lush meadows, in addition to the unique sandy beaches, picturesque natural harbors and a large 7-bedroom forest estate built in 1889, as well as a large number of deer, Canada geese, water birds, turkeys, and a variety of fish, making it a paradise for nature lovers and hunters. Canada's islands are among the cheapest in the world, and this is reflected in the fact that Garro Island is listed for just $9.8 million for such a large island.

The second is located on Long Island, South Carolina, covering an area larger than Garro Island, covering an area of 4,600 acres, equivalent to 18.62 square kilometers, near James Island, which is an outdoor paradise for fly fishing, wildlife viewing, kayaking and paddle boarding. Islands in the U.S. are also cheap, with such a large island being listed for just $25 million.

Three is located on Grand Darby Island in the Exuma Islands of the Bahamas, this island covers an area of 554 acres, or 9,974 acres, 2.24 square kilometers, which is large enough, and the island is 95 miles away from Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas. Copperfield's two islands are strategically located.

Across the island, Grand Darby Island is home to clear turquoise waters, green plantations and white sand beaches with plenty of space for an airstrip that is expected to support runways ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 meters, and is adjacent to a protected natural harbor at 80 feet above sea level, which is already the height of the Bahamas, and a magnificent castle built in 1938 on an area of 650 square meters, which is of course much more expensive in the Caribbean. It's only one-eighth the size of Long Island, but it's listed for $32 million.

Four is also located on the island of the Bahamas, Harrow Island. Located 72 miles from Nassau, Panama, the 575-acre island is unspoiled and has 12 hills, three white sandy beaches, and a protected anchorage area with abundant vegetation cover and rare wildlife. The island is listed for $33 million.

Fifth, Lighthouse Reef, also located in the Bahamas, is a completely undeveloped island adjacent to Eleuthera Island, the Bahamas. At 765 acres, or 3.09 square kilometers, the island is a huge island, with lush green vegetation, more than 4 miles of beaches, and three freshwater lakes. 50 feet above sea level. The island was listed for $31 million.

Sixth, the island of Ronde in Grenada, located in the southeastern Caribbean Sea, is an island nation consisting of itself and six small islands located at the southern end of the Grenadines Islands. Measuring 200 acres of land, Ronde Island is one of the largest private islands available for sale in the Grenadines, with no human development, fishing or other damage, and a beautiful scenery with beautiful hills and gorges, as well as beautiful bays. According to the information. There is a swimmable cave on the island that leads to an underground cave full of stalactites and quartz crystals.

And in the Caribbean region. Naturally, Longde Island has a mild climate and beautiful beaches, and transportation is also quite convenient, Grenada International Airport is just a few miles away, private charters and yachts can be arranged, and the listing price is $80 million.

Seven is located in Thailand's Lang Yai Island, an area of 110 acres, in the east of Phuket, is the largest island for sale in the region, the island has fresh water, generators, mobile phone signals, of course, white sand beaches and dense forests must also be there, don't look at the island is not large, but the price is extremely amazing, the listing price is 120 million US dollars.

Eight is located on the lower coast of Mexico on the island of Serralvo off the Sea of Cortez, which is a completely unexplored place. Women's Land, 60 miles from Mexico, with typical Mexican weather, fine sand and plenty of sunshine, was once a volcano, with a mountain-like shape, the biggest feature of the island is only one word big, yes, Seralvo Island covers a huge area, up to 60 square miles, equivalent to 155 square kilometers, almost unbelievably large, almost killing all the other islands on the list, listed for $160 million.

"Seravor Island, and it's located in Mexico, it's a familiar name, I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while." Liu Yifei said distressedly.

"Forbes' 2006 list of the world's most expensive private islands, no, I remember the most expensive private island in Spain was less than $40 million." Liu Shishi wondered.

"That's right." Lin Yuquan Mali found Forbes' list through searching: "At that time, the highest prices were $39.7 million on the Spanish island of Safiradura and $35 million on the island of Seravour." ”

"Oh my God, it's only been two years, and the price has risen nearly fourfold, is the value of a private island appreciating so fast?" Liu Yifei exclaimed.

"Of course, it can't really rise so fast, obviously the Mexican government has seen the rise in the popularity of private islands and the tourism market in the past two years, and deliberately raised the price, presumably it is full of water, after all, the island is not only big but valuable, the advantage of Seravor Island is big, but that's all, compared to the Bahamas, its scenery and climate are far inferior, and it is extremely difficult to transform this island into a resort." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Oh, which means that if you really want to buy it, the price will be much lower than $160 million!" Liu Yifei's eyes lit up.

"Hmm." Lin Yuquan nodded.

"Then do you want to buy it, 155 square kilometers, this area is too big, it's like an independent kingdom." Liu Yifei had a bright smile on her face.

"Ahem, didn't I say that? It is very difficult to renovate, of course it is easy to buy, but such a large island, if you want to transform it into a resort like Musa Island, the investment is expected to be billions, and it is still a dollar, once the transformation is not successful, then it is bound to suffer heavy losses, involving such a large amount of renovation work, the transformation cycle will also be very long, it is estimated that there will be no transformation in a few years or more than ten years. Lin Yuquan shook his head, he naturally wanted to buy a relatively large island, but when the area is large to a certain extent, the situation will be completely different, such a large area of Seravor Island is destined to be built into a super resort, otherwise if you just live by yourself, why choose such a desolate island?

However, it is not easy to succeed in its transformation, as can be seen from the picture, Seravor Island is extremely desolate, whether there are enough fresh water resources to support the operation of the island in the future, not to mention, the terrifying capital investment alone is enough to make people prohibitive, even if he is already very rich, and will be richer in the future, but in a short period of time, due to the need to invest more money in industrial layout and business expansion, even if he buys the island, there is no capital to invest in large-scale transformation.

Not only that, but to be honest, he thinks these islands are good, and if he has enough money, he would like to buy them all, but the problem is that although many people think that he is already rich, in fact, he is still very short of money! (To be continued.) )
