Chapter 214: Japanese chaebol secretly invests in Huaxia real estate
Jinda Building, Chaoyang District, Tianjing City.
The entire building is 100 meters high and is one of the most famous landmarks in Chaoyang District.
At the same time, it is also the headquarters of Kingdom Real Estate Group Co., Ltd., the largest real estate enterprise in China.
At this time, in the conference room on the top floor of the building, Xu Jian, chairman of Kingdom Real Estate Group, was conducting business negotiations with several business tycoons, trying to sell Kingdom Football Club, a subsidiary of Kingdom Real Estate Group!
Kingdom Football has won the Asian Cup Football League and created a remarkable achievement, but in recent years, Kingdom Group has invested less and less in the team, and the team's results have been much worse than before.
After nearly half an hour of meeting, the business tycoons shook their heads with a smile, and finally shook hands with Xu Jian one by one, and then turned around and left the Kingdom Building.
It is clear that this negotiation did not go well.
Xu Jian returned to his office and smoked cigarette after cigarette.
As the owner of the largest real estate development company in China, others may think that he is living a very nourishing life, but in fact, maybe only people who are engaged in real estate development like him know that the real estate industry is not good!
Since the outbreak of the financial crisis in 08, the real estate bubble in China has begun to burst, and the era of everyone speculating in real estate is gone!
Especially after the convening of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the central government began to take various measures to fight corruption with an iron fist, and the real estate industry, which is closely related to corruption, has been hit hard! Housing prices in major cities in China have begun to fall sharply, and housing prices in some big cities have even been cut in half! More extreme ones such as Ordos and Shenmu County have become ghost towns with no one in place!
In order to stabilize housing prices, the government even lifted the purchase restriction measures, but it still did not play any role, almost anyone knows that the inflection point of the real estate industry in China has come, and the real estate industry in the future can no longer be as prosperous as before.
As the owner of the largest real estate development company in China, Xu Jian has the most profound personal experience, everything outside the building has begun to recover, and spring has slowly come, but in his heart, the cold and biting winter has just come!
Kingdom Group's sales performance has been declining one after another. The company's stock price also fell to the lowest freezing point in history, except for some big bulls, retail investors did not dare to buy Kingdom Group shares anymore, because they were afraid of being trapped.
Another consequence of the bursting of the real estate bubble is that it is more difficult to get loans, in the past, if you wanted to borrow, as long as you told the government, the government would immediately come forward to guarantee, and then the banks would come up with billions or tens of billions of dollars in minutes, but now the government and banks dare not get into this circle lightly. Governments have learned to keep a low profile, and banks are worried that huge loans will be gone like meat buns beating dogs.
Such a thing has not happened, when Wenzhou housing prices plummeted, many real estate developers either ran away, or jumped off the building to commit suicide, and the bank suffered a lot of losses.
Although Kingdom Group is a leading company in the domestic real estate industry, it is no longer so easy to get a loan from a bank as before.
This is the reason why Xu Jian decided to sell Kingdom Football Club. Because it's too expensive to want to cultivate a good team!
In the past, Xu Jian could be willful, but now he can't. He must work hard to get Kingdom Properties through this most difficult period.
"If the team wins the AFC Champions League again this year, the chances of transferring it will be much greater!" , Xu Jian said secretly.
Now that the team has become a burden for Kingdom Group, Xu Jian has decided that he must abandon this burden.
He picked up his mobile phone and was about to call the club's general manager to urge the team to train hard. At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the office.
Xu Jian put down his phone and said, "Come in!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, his assistant pushed open the door and walked in.
"Chairman, a Japanese man who claims to be a representative of Yamamoto Corporation wants to meet with you!"
"Yamamoto Co., Ltd.? Japanese? Xu Jian frowned and said. Did he say what he was looking for me for? ”
His assistant said: "He said that it is inconvenient to disclose, you will know when you meet him!" ”
Xu Jian snuffed out the cigarette butt and said secretly: "Could it be that Yamamoto Co., Ltd. is also interested in my football team?" ”
"Where is he now?" , Xu Jian asked.
His assistant said, "I have arranged for him to wait for you in the reception room!" ”
Xu Jian pondered for a while and said, "Hmm! I see, you go down first! ”
"Yes, Chairman!" , the assistant immediately exited the office.
Xu Jian hesitated for a while, but finally decided to meet the representative of Yamamoto Corporation.
Although he did not expect Yamamoto to buy the football team, it was possible to let them take a stake in the group to ease the financial pressure.
Then Xu Jian walked out of the office and walked towards the reception room.
After a while, he saw the representative of Yamamoto Co., Ltd., who was described by his assistant, a very young Japanese man wearing a suit and leather shoes, and round-rimmed glasses, and looked very energetic.
He sat on his knees, holding a black briefcase to his chest with both hands.
Seeing Xu Jian walk in, he immediately stood up, and bowed ninety degrees very respectfully and said, "I've seen Chairman Xu!" ”
He speaks Chinese a little lamely, with a very strict Japanese accent.
"Hello!" , Xu Jian also stretched out his hand to him very politely, he could already be sure that the person in front of him was indeed a Japanese.
After shaking hands, the Japanese man said, "My name is Shinozo Noda, and I am an officer of Yamamoto Corporation, and I am very happy to meet Chairman Xu!" ”
Xu Jian nodded and said, "What did your company want to do when they sent you to me?" ”
Shinozanoda said, "We want to invest in your company!" ”
"Investment?" , Xu Jian was stunned for a moment, why would a Japanese company, or a Japanese company that has nothing to do with real estate, invest in real estate companies in Huaxia?
After all, the real estate industry in China is now a big hole that is difficult to make money, and even domestic companies are reluctant to invest in this industry, why does Yamamoto Co., Ltd. want to invest?
He couldn't help but have some doubts about the true identity of the representative of Yamamoto Corporation in front of him.
"Yes!" "We can invest 30 billion yuan in your company to help your company tide over the difficulties!" ”
"Three tens of billion?!" , Xu Jian was shocked in his heart. That's a shocking number!
Even when China's real estate was at its most prosperous, no bank dared to lend 30 billion at once, let alone when the real estate was extremely depressed!
So he was even more suspicious that the Japanese in front of him was a professional fraudster.
Shinozo Noda also seemed to have guessed Xu Jian's thoughts, he lowered his head and took out a stack of Wen Jiàn from his leather bag, "This is our company's contract Wen Jiàn, you can take a closer look!" ”
Xu Jian glanced at it. I found that the contract documents were all written in Chinese characters, so it was not difficult to read.
He looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more he frowned.
"The owners of all the houses that are being sold are required to use MeiG Electric's smart home products when signing the sales contract...... Do not use Huaxing Technology's smart home products? ”
There are not many terms in the whole contract, but one of the clauses involving Meige Electric Appliances and Huaxing Technology made him pay special attention!
"What does this mean?" , Xu Jian asked.
Shinozanoda replied, "Our company supports MeiG Electric, so we hope to increase the competitiveness of MeiG Electric's smart home products!" ”
"As long as you agree to these terms, we will immediately invest 30 billion in your company!"
Xu Jian carefully reviewed all the terms of the contract again and did not find any terms that were unfavorable to Kingdom Group. So he was sure that the Japanese in front of him was indeed not a fraudster.
Xu Jian's heart is difficult to calm down, and now the company does need a lot of external funds, so the 30 billion yuan is indeed very tempting.
"Huaxing Technology's smart home products are very advanced, and there is no way to improve the competitiveness of Meige Electric Appliances by bundling sales!" , Xu Jian said.
Shinozo Noda said: "There is no need to worry about Chairman Xu, this is one of our company's development strategies!" ”
Xu Jian nodded, looking at the figure of 30 billion on the contract text, it is impossible not to be moved!
Although Kingdom Group has always held the largest market share in the real estate market. But in such a difficult time now, if you are not careful, you will be squeezed down by other real estate companies! And with this than huge sums of money. It will be much easier for Kingdom Group to turn the tide of the situation.
"If your company does not agree, we at Yamamoto Corporation will invest in other real estate companies as well!" , added Shinoza Noda.
After careful consideration, Xu Jian finally decided to sign this contract and accept the investment from Yamamoto Corporation.
Because if this investment falls on the heads of other real estate companies, the leading position of Kingdom Group is likely to be lost.
After all, life is not easy for any real estate company right now. With this huge investment, Kingdom Group has a much easier time getting through than other real estate companies.
"Please rest assured, I will send someone to arrange a meeting with Meige Electric immediately, and try my best to modify all the sales contracts!" , Xu Jian said with a smile.
"With these three billion. The company can grab a few more pieces of land, and it is no longer a problem to leave other real estate companies behind in one fell swoop! Xu Jian said secretly.
However, things are not as simple as he imagined!
Yantai City, Dongshan Province, the headquarters of Wanlong Real Estate Group, a real estate development company with the second largest market share in China.
Wang Lin, chairman of Bandung Real Estate, is holding talks with representatives of Japan's Sanleng.
"You said your company wants to invest in us?" , Wang Lin was surprised.
Sanlengshi Heavy Industry is Japan's largest military enterprise, and it is well-known all over the world, although Wang Hao has been a businessman for decades, but he never imagined that such a company would come to invest in Huaxia's real estate company!
And it is also the weakest time for the real estate industry in China!
"Yes! Chairman Wang! The representative of Sanleng Heavy Industry said very seriously.
He took out a contract from the briefcase in his hand and said: "As long as Chairman Xu signs this contract, our company will immediately invest 20 billion yuan in your company!" ”
"Two tens of billion?!" , Wang Lin couldn't help but smack his tongue, in the past, when Huaxia real estate was at its most glorious, this little money was indeed nothing, but at this time, the role of 20 billion yuan was very big!
"With these 20 billion, I can not only tide the company over the difficulties, but also surpass Kingdom Real Estate in one fell swoop!" , Wang Lin said secretly, he was already a little moved.
However, he did not agree immediately, but took the text and looked at it carefully, confirming that there would be no traps in every contract clause.
"From now on, all properties under the company's name must require the other party to purchase MeiG Electric's smart home products when signing a sales contract with the owner...... Do not use Huaxing Technology's smart home products! ”
"It's a bundle! Violating our country's unfair competition law! Wang Lin said in surprise.
The representative of Sanleng Heavy Industry said calmly: "Whether or not to violate the laws of your country is your company's business, and our company is responsible for investment!" ”
"Why do you have to bundle MeiG Electric's smart home products?" , Wang Lin asked.
The representative of Sanleng Heavy Industry said: "Because we feel that MeiG Electric's smart home products are safer, we hope that their technology products can serve the majority of Chinese people!" ”
"As long as you sign the contract, our company will immediately invest 20 billion in your company!" , added the representative of Mitsurishi Heavy Industries.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wang Lin finally signed this contract, and it was too tempting to have a huge amount of money of 20 billion.
"Thank you very much for working with your company!" Wang Lin said, "I will immediately arrange to contact Meige Electric and change our company's sales contract!" ”
……
Sujiang City, Jiangnan Province, the headquarters of Longfor Real Estate, the largest real estate company in the southwest.
In the conference room on the top floor.
Cai Jun, chairman of Longfor Real Estate Company, is holding a general meeting of shareholders.
He sat in the first place and said excitedly: "Good news for everyone, our company has received an investment of 10 billion yuan from Panasonic of Japan!" ”
Everyone in the audience is very excited, 10 billion yuan is not a small amount for Longfor Real Estate!
"Why should a Japanese electrical appliance company invest in our Longfor Real Estate?" , at which point a shareholder asked.
Cai Jun replied: "The representative of Panasonic said that they have a long-term cooperation with Meige Electric, so I hope that our company can support the development of Meige Electric!" ”
"MeiG Electric?" , everyone was puzzled.
Cai Jun explained: "Yes, Panasonic requires us to set up a new clause in the sales contract when selling the house, that is, all owners must buy MeiG Electric's smart home products!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the entire conference room was shocked!
"Will consumers agree to our bundling?" , one shareholder asked.
Cai Jun said: "The real estate developed by our company is mainly for customers who take out loans to buy houses, and they do not have much financial ability to buy Huaxing Technology's products, which saves them a lot of trouble!" ”
In just a few words, Cai Jun persuaded all the shareholders, after all, the temptation of 10 billion is too great!
And now the company is in a very difficult situation, the company has no other choice, in fact, it is already great luck to be able to get such a huge investment! (To be continued......)
