Hong Kong, Central, 1 Nok Road Central, in the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the Furama Hotel.

Shen Chong sat in the corner by the window, ignoring the beautiful night view of Victoria Harbour outside, and instead buried his head in the latest issue of the Far Eastern Economic Review.

On the one hand, the quality of the magazine is indeed hard enough, on the other hand, he knows a lot about the future economy, and a few words can make many people rich overnight, but why bother...... The world has changed a lot, and then adding fuel to the frenzy of flapping its wings will be detrimental to the future, besides, his acquisition of the "Far Eastern Economic Review" is not to guide others to get rich, but to shake the market at a critical time.

The so-called loud words, the less you usually say, the more weight you have at critical times.

And now, there is a good target to sharpen this publication - in this issue of the Far Eastern Economic Review, there is a large special report on the myth of Jianing Group.

Shen Chong was born like a comet last year and was called "Shen Caishen", but most of his industries are in the United States, in Hong Kong, except for toys, there is nothing to do, so if you really want to talk about Hong Kong in 1979, the hottest business tycoon, he ranked third at most, the top two, one is the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, Li Ka-shing, who created a precedent for Chinese acquisition of British-funded groups, and the other is Chen Songqing of Jianing Group.

According to the report in the special feature, Chen Songqing was originally a civil engineer in Singapore, after the local bankruptcy, he came to Hong Kong in 19 years, initially as a real estate project manager, in 1975, he set up his own door, founded a real estate company, bought a piece of land at the price of o million, and a year later, sold it to the relevant government in Hong Kong at the price of o million, made a lot of money, and dug up the first pot of gold, at the end of 1977, registered and established Jianing Group Company, and began to invest in different industries such as tourism, real estate, catering, and hotels. By 1979, the assets of Jianing Group had skyrocketed like a balloon, and it became the focus of attention in the Hong Kong business community

For example, in September 1979, Jianing Group launched eight duplex luxury residential villas in Stanley, each priced as high as Ruo million Hong Kong dollars, more than twice the market price, and was sold out in just a few days, causing a sensation in the city.

In the month, Jianing Group purchased 16 villas on Clear Water Bay Road at a price of more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, setting a record for the highest price of this batch of real estate prices.

Before the news was hot, Jianing Group made another big deal and acquired the Jinghua Bank Building on Canafin Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, and the transaction process was extremely exaggerated - the market price of this building was around 100 million, and the seller's shareholders held a meeting to discuss, whether to offer 400 million, or Ling? is struggling, Jianing Group directly gave a sky-high price of uR billion, which is more than 100 million higher than the seller's psychological price

This kind of courage of not taking money as money is even ashamed of Shen Chong, a local tyrant who has crossed over......

At the end of the year, Jianing Group made another big move, and on March 31, it acquired a listed company at a price of 47.8 billion Hong Kong dollars per share. became the controlling majority shareholder, and the company's shares, in the previous two years, the highest price per share was only 5 Hong Kong dollars.

The matter is not over, after New Year's Day, on January 1o, Chen Qingsong shot again, at a price of 9.8 billion Hong Kong dollars, from the acquisition of the Golden Gate Building, this transaction is more staggering than the acquisition of the Jinghua Bank Building, the Golden Gate Building is one of the landmark buildings in Hong Kong, and the Landmark Group a year ago, that is, in 1978, from the Jardine Matheson Co., when the price was only 1.5 billion, just one year, it earned more than 100 million......

Jianing Group and Chen Qingsong's successive largesse, so that Shen Chong's self-made legend, tarnished, plus after he returned from Huangshan, turned into a low-key, did not accept any Hong Kong media interviews, after October, but also between the mainland and the United States, so throughout the second half of the year, Hong Kong business and economic media reports, almost all focused on Chen Qingsong.

After reading the report full of beautiful words, Shen Chong closed the magazine, rolled it up, and gently tapped his palm, thinking about how to maximize the use of Jianing Group.

Jianing Group is the beginning of the Ru years, Hong Kong real estate bubble produced out of the flower of evil, its qiē, are built on the sand of the castle, is a glamorous mirage, two years later, the local bubble burst, Jianing Group bankruptcy, involving the amount of more than UU billion Hong Kong dollars, the government litigation costs alone used up more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, known as Hong Kong's largest case, is a classic case of later generations to study Hong Kong's business activities.

If Shen Chong can puncture the bubble of Jianing Group at a critical time, if he speaks again in the future, no one will dare not pay attention to it......

Just as he was thinking about it, a gentle voice sounded.

"Mr. Shen?"

Shen Chong looked up and saw a young woman wearing a short comb, a red dress, and sunglasses, standing in front of the table.

"You changed your style, and you didn't recognize it all at once." Shen Chong said as he walked over, helped pull out the chair, and said, "Please take a seat." ”

"Thank you." After Teresa Teng sat down, she said with a smile: "My mother doesn't like the big waves I left in the United States, so when I went back to Taiwan, I cut it off." Mr. Shen has been here for a long time, right? Keeping you waiting. ”

"Where, I've just arrived, too." Shen Chong put away the magazine and said, "I don't know what you like to eat, but I just heard that the scenery here is good, so I chose this place." ”

"Mr. Shen bothered." Teresa Teng took off her sunglasses, looked sideways at the night scene outside the window, and said, "It's good here." ”

Teresa Teng was twenty-six or seventeen years old at this time, which is the age when flowers are blooming, her appearance is not beautiful, but her round apple face is very pleasing, coupled with a quiet and sweet gentle temperament, which is intoxicating.

Although they had met in Los Angeles, Lily was present at that time, so the atmosphere was lively, and now that the two were alone, Shen Chong suddenly appeared, and he had nothing to talk about.

"That, Miss Deng." Coughing lightly, Shen Chong said to Yu Baba, "Thank you for going to Boston in July to celebrate my uncle's birthday." ”

"Yes, Mr. Shen doesn't need to thank me." Teresa Teng smiled slightly and said: "Lily and I are good friends, thanks to her care in Los Angeles, it is right to celebrate the birthday of the elders." ”

At this time, the waiter came over, and after ordering the food, he chatted a few more words, Shen Chongxian Li Kaiyuan was right, facing the star, I don't know what topic to say, it's really better not to see it......

Teresa Teng's voice is sweet, her words are gentle, and her every move is very in line with the standards of traditional Chinese ladies, but Shen Chong feels that she has a unique temperament that rejects people thousands of miles away, which makes people feel that they can only watch from a distance and cannot be approached, which is just the opposite of Lin Qingxia - Lin Qingxia is heroic on the surface and has a strong aura, but after getting along for a while, it is very easy to talk.

"That's right, Miss Deng." After the food was delivered, Shen Chong asked without words, "When did you leave Los Angeles?" ”

"Mid-December." Teresa Teng picked up the knife and fork very elegantly and said: "Qingxia brought a letter from Director Song to me, saying that I could go home, so after staying with Qingxia in Los Angeles for two days, I went back to Taiwan."

"How does it feel to come home?"

"It's good, it's comfortable, it's better at home." Teresa Teng smiled at the corner of her mouth, looked at him, and said: "Mr. Shen is really alive, and he predicted early that I would return to Taiwan at the end of the year." ”

Shen Chong smiled and said, "You are just a fan of the authorities, in fact, it is easy to see the result of this matter." ”

"Mr. Shen said it simply, I was scared stupid at the time, and my parents are also six gods and no masters." Teresa Teng remembered the past, the corners of her eyes were slightly red, and after a while, she said: "In short, thank you Mr. Shen for your guidance at that time, otherwise, I really don't know how to get through those months." ”

"It's over, don't think about it anymore." Shen Chong picked up the wine glass, touched it with her, and after taking a sip, said, "Director Song said that you can go back, what conditions did you prescribe?" ”

"It's exactly the same as what Mr. Shen said at the beginning." Teresa Teng looked at him with bright eyes and said: "During the Spring Festival, I went to the front line of Kinmen to hold a concert of the labor army to comfort the soldiers, and then the government will no longer pursue the passport incident." ”

Shen Chong nodded, didn't say anything, and after a while, he said, "Miss Deng, your songs are very popular in the mainland now, do you know?" ”

"I've heard some rumors, but the specifics are not very clear."

"I was in the mainland last year and heard a folk song." Shen Chong cut the steak and said: "Listen to Lao Deng's words during the day and listen to Xiao Deng's songs at night, you are on a par with the country's leaders, and you are the most popular singer in the mainland."

When Teresa Teng heard this, she looked at Shen Chong with a little overwhelmed eyes and didn't say anything.

"Miss Deng, have you ever wanted to hold a concert in the mainland? A billion listeners, a billion applause, as a singer, is there anything more glorious than this? ”

Teresa Teng was a little dazed and asked, "Can I go to the mainland?" ”

"Of course not right now." Shen Chong took a small bite of steak, and then said: "Maybe in a few years, Big 6 and Taiwan are both Chinese, always engaging in confrontation is not the way, sooner or later there will be exchanges, commerce, navigation, communication will be available, when the time comes, why not?" ”

"But" Teresa Teng was born in a family of Kuomintang soldiers, couldn't turn the corner, and said: "But this is unlikely, right?" ”

"It's man-made, there's no impossible." Shen Chong smiled, suddenly changed the topic, and said, "By the way, Miss Deng, I forgot to tell you a very unfortunate thing. ”

Teresa Teng's eyes widened, revealing a very appropriate doubt.

"I have acquired PolyGram Hong Kong and established a partnership with PolyGram Japan." Shen Chong said with a smile: "In a sense, you are already my employee. ”

"Huh?" Teresa Teng snorted softly, she covered her lips with her hands and asked, "Really?" ”

Shen Chong nodded with a smile.

In 19 years, Philips understood the compact tape used to store sound, but at that time there were many formats of audio tapes, under the competitive pressure of Sony, Philips on the one hand decided to license the free Buka tape format, on the other hand, it started the idea of vertical integration, through the acquisition of guò, the establishment of a music record company, to open up the industrial chain, to promote its own technical standards.

This music record label, the famous PolyGram, has branches all over the world, and was the oldest, most famous and largest record label in the world before it was acquired by Universal in 1999.

Polygram (Hong Kong) is a music brand that goes hand in hand with the Rolling Stones, and since Shen Chong has tinkered with the Rolling Stones, he will naturally not let it go.

PolyGram's Hong Kong branch was founded in 1975, when it was small and signed fewer than a dozen singers, but all of them were elites - in addition to Teresa Teng, Alan Tam, Hui Guanjie, Leslie Cheung, and Teddy Robin.

Philips as a Dutch company, the base camp is naturally Europe, the Hong Kong market is narrow, and Cantonese pop music has not really taken shape, and the profitability is limited, so it is not taken seriously, and it is not difficult to acquire, Shen Chong originally planned to get the Japanese Polygram in his hands, but Japan, as the world's second largest economy, has strong consumption power, and is the base camp of Sony, Philips is reluctant to let go.

But this doesn't matter, because of the "fake passport" incident, Teresa Teng was officially expelled, her reputation was greatly damaged, and she couldn't enter Japanese soil, and her contract with Polygram Japan was basically a piece of waste paper.

"Miss Deng." Shen Chong put down the tableware and said, "As the boss, can I give you a Jianyì."

"Mr. Shen, please speak."

"If you want to take the next step in your career and become a world-class singer." Shen Chong Zhengse said: "I advise you to stay away from political activities, if it is really unavoidable, please try to dilute the conflict and use soft words." ”

"What does Mr. Shen mean?"

"For example, this labor army." Shen Chong pulled the corners of his mouth, showed a sarcastic smile, and then said: "As an exchange condition for you to return to Taiwan, you can't avoid it, but when you go to Kinmen, you can sing and dance, but it's best not to say some offensive or ideological words, such as counteroffensive big 6, three people's doctrine and the like, after all, both sides of the strait are compatriots, why bother fighting, killing and killing, peace and exchange, is the direction of the exhibition." ”

Seeing Teresa Teng's puzzlement, Shen Chong said again: "I'm a businessman, you're a singer, everyone is a small role, just make some hard-earned money to get by, why bother to stir up politics, that's what bureaucrats who receive money and food from the country should do."

"But Mr. Shen, in the barracks, you must say something to encourage morale."

"Just say some clichés like training well and serving the country bravely, these are no problem." Shen Chong took the wine glass and said: "You just need to remember one thing, don't talk about the big 6, it's okay, if you can do this, I can guarantee that in a few years, you can go to the mainland for a concert." ”

Teresa Teng picked up the cup and took a sip, thoughtful.

"Miss Deng, your English name is from Mother Teresa, right?"

"Yes, she's the person I look up to the most."

"Mother Teresa won the Nobel Peace Prize last year." Shen Chong said with a smile: "Miss Deng, if you can adhere to the idea that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait should communicate and achieve peaceful reunification, and work hard for it, maybe you can win this award in a few decades." ”

When Teresa Teng heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled, and after laughing, she said: "Mr. Shen, what you said is too fantastical, how can I compare with Mother Teresa." Moreover, you were still saying just now that you should not participate in politics, and now you are persuading me to do politics. ”

"There's no rule that you can't daydream at night." Shen Chong also smiled, feeling that the atmosphere was starting to liven, and said, "Miss Deng plans to stay in Hong Kong for a few days?" ”

"Three or four days, after recording the New Year special for H, I will go back to Taiwan." Teresa Teng ate the food very elegantly and said: "I am so busy during the Spring Festival, I want to do a New Year song party for China Television, and there are still several places to run in Taipei and Taichung." ”

"Concert?"

"Not really." Teresa Teng shook her head lightly and said, "It's just that the bosses of a few dance halls appreciate their faces and invite me to come over and sing." ”

Shen Chong sighed and asked with a smile, "How much are you worth now?" If it's cheap, I'll invite you to come to my house for a concert, my family likes you very much, and your songs. ”

Mr. Shen laughed. Teresa Teng smiled and said, "I am now an employee under you, if you say it, how dare I not go." ”

"That's not going to work." Shen Chong waved his hand and said: "I can't do anything about the beautiful woman, if your fans in the mainland know about it, and there are thousands of troops swimming over from Shenzhen, I will be miserable." ”

After talking and laughing for a while, when the dinner was almost over, Shen Chong got to the point, and he asked, "If I'm not mistaken, how many concerts does Miss Deng have in North America this year?" ”

Teresa Teng gently chin and said, "Yes." ”

"Then I don't know if there is an arrangement for April?" Shen Chong said: "I have an event in Hong Kong, and I want to invite you to have a show. ”

"Mr. Shen is now the boss of Polygram, but he doesn't know my schedule?"

Shen Chong touched his head a little embarrassed and said, "I have bought a lot of things recently, and many things have not been handed over yet." ”

"The concert was scheduled for July, and I was empty in April." Teresa Teng wandered and asked, "What kind of activity?" ”

"It's like the Golden Horse Awards, it's a film festival ceremony." Shen Chong said: "I want to ask you to sing a few songs in the halftime, you know, there are no big stars at the awards ceremony, you will be looked down upon, I only know you as a big singer, you are here, and you are shining." ”

"Mr. Shen is really good at talking." Teresa Teng agreed with a smile, she said, "What song am I going to sing?" ”

"This hasn't been decided yet, so there's no hurry." Shen Chong said: "After the Spring Festival, let's talk about it." ”
