Chapter 0164 Sell land to open a new property and join hands with old acquaintances!
Soon after Xiaoda and I acquired the land through land reassignment and compensation, the Hong Kong government did announce the new development plan and land supply price.
Due to the rise in land prices, local prices have risen in front! Suddenly, panic buying became a social ethos! Soon, the local industry, commerce and real estate development industry was boiling again!
At the same time, various local experts published articles and opinions in newspapers, radio and television stations, highly praising the Hong Kong government's development plan, believing that the economic development of the mainland region will comprehensively enhance the status of local international trade and finance, and comprehensively raise local prices, housing prices and economic aggregates.
In fact, a good economic situation is like a pile of dry firewood, as long as someone sets fire to this pair of dry firewood and fans the wind, this pile of dry firewood must be burned a lot, and then, the fire spreads! And carry out a runaway state!
At this time, we feel that the economy of the port city is such a raging fire, and of course, the owners and citizens here believe that new opportunities to make money are coming soon!
......
At 9 a.m. on March 20, 1977, when I was working at the CIA service station, Mr. Lan Quancheng, a very well-known local real estate developer, called me and asked me to come to his office to discuss a deal about the land supporting the Haolong project, and this person wanted to buy some of the land.
Xiaoda and I changed into regular business clothes, drove the family jeep, and went to the office building in Lan Quancheng.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, we arrived at Lan Quancheng's office, his office is very luxuriously decorated, Lan Quancheng is a little old man about fifty years old, but he seems very energetic!
After we introduced each other, we sat on the couch in the office over coffee and talked.
Lan Quancheng smiled and said, "Chairman Zhou Zilong! You're so young and so far, you're amazing! β
I said, "Mr. Lan's deeds are already known to all ages in Hong Kong City!" Mr. Lan is also a young talent, a superman who covers all over the world! You don't have to compliment our tiny young people! Let's get down to business! β
Lan Quancheng said: "I learned through a friend that now, you have taken 1,200 hectares of land to the east of the Haolong Port Project!" It must be very difficult for you to develop such a large piece of land by yourself! Can you transfer me a part of this land?! In this way, you can get a considerable amount of money to develop the remaining land! β
I said, "Thank you Lan for giving me such good advice!" Of course, I do have this intention! What is the direction of the plot that Mr. Lan is going to ask us for this piece of soil? What is the plot size? What is the price of the land? β
Lan Quancheng said, "That's right! We have just acquired more than 100 hectares of mountainous land in the north of your land, but our development plan is relatively large, so we want you to transfer 400 hectares of land that is 6,000 acres of land connected to our land! We have just acquired the land with the Hong Kong government at a price of 250,000 US dollars per mu, and we also want to use this price to buy this 400 hectares of land with you! The price is 1.5 billion US dollars, and we will bear the transaction taxes! β
Then, on the area plan, he showed me the location of all his land, which was connected with the land that Lan Quancheng had taken from the port government there.
I said, "Mr. Lan! There is no problem with the transfer of location and area, however, I think this price is too low, and the mountain land you take from the Hong Kong government, calculated at a price of 250,000 US dollars / mu, should be reasonable! However, our land is a flat open land, and our land is within the planning of urban infrastructure, industrial and commercial areas and living areas, and in the future, they will be part of the city, so I think the land price here should be between $300,000 and $400,000 per mu! If Mr. Lan is willing to pay a transfer price of 350,000 US dollars per mu and bear all the taxes and fees, we can consider selling the 400 hectares of land here to you! β
Lan Quancheng said, "Zilong! We are all Chinese! Aren't you slaughtering the whole city of Lan by doing this? I'll give you a maximum of $300,000 per mu! You're looking at it, right?! β
I said, "Mr. Lan! For this 400 hectares of land, I will make a transfer price of 350,000 US dollars per mu, and you will bear all the taxes and fees! I have to receive $2.1 billion for the land, and we won't sell this land for a penny! If you still want to buy this piece of land, call me at 1:30 p.m., and we will go through the transfer and transfer together! Otherwise, don't look for me anymore, I really don't lack funds to develop this land! β
Lan Quancheng smiled and said, "I can't see that my brother is also a very shrewd businessman!" Let's think about it, and then we'll give you a clear answer! β
Then, after shaking hands with him, we left his office and building and returned to work.
......
At 1:30 p.m., when I was at work at the CIA service station, I received a call from Lan Quancheng who had agreed to trade for the 400 hectares of land.
They asked us to immediately bring the property rights documents of the land attached to the Haolong project to the land trading center of the political department to trade the land with them.
Because I had already prepared the land title documents, Xiaoda and I drove the jeep from the CIA service station and went directly to the land trading center of the political department.
At around 2 p.m., when we got there, Arashi Quancheng and his management team were already waiting for us there.
Under the guidance of the staff of the trading center, Lan Quancheng and I signed the "Land Transfer Contract" for 400 hectares of land attached to the Haolong Project.
After signing the contract, I submitted my personal documents and the relevant property rights documents of the attached plots of the Haolong project to the agency staff of the trading center, and they went to handle the transfer and transfer.
Soon after, the chargΓ© d'affaires staff came to tell me that Lan Quancheng had remitted $2.1 billion to Zhou Zilong's UBS account.
So, after I checked the money by phone, I signed and pledged the "Confirmation of Collection of Land Transfer Money" given to me by the agency staff.
Soon after, the charge d'affaires staff sent me the "Land Transfer Contract" that we had signed with the seal of the trading center, as well as the new "Land Certificate" and "Parcel Map" and other property rights certificates for the 800 hectares of land attached to the Haolong project, that is, 12,000 acres, and returned my personal documents and some of the original documents that they asked me to keep.
After the transaction, Lan Quancheng came over to shake hands with me and left with his people.
After Xiaoda and I packed up all the transaction documents, we also left the trading center and returned to our home in the Demon Star Villa.
......
At 4 p.m., we were back at home, and I was in my home office handling the cash in Zhou Zilong's UBS account.
At this time, the cash in Zhou's UBS account was $111,2058.39 million.
I think there's too much cash, so I'm ready to buy gold spot CDs for $10 billion.
I called the UBS gold trading desk and they quoted me a price of $95 an ounce, so I immediately bought $10 billion, a gold spot certificate of deposit.
In this way, I set up a 105,263,200 ounce gold spot certificate of deposit in my UBS account with an interest rate of 11.5% per annum for the period from March 20, 1977 to March 20, 1979.
After the transaction, the cash in Zhou Zilong's account was: $1120,583,900.
There are also two financial assets:
(1) 325,000,000 ounces of gold spot certificates of deposit, at an interest rate of 11.5% per annum, with a maturity from June 23, 1976 to June 23, 1979.
(2) 105,263,200 ounces of gold spot certificates of deposit, with an interest rate of 11.5% per annum, with a maturity from March 20, 1977 to March 20, 1979.
After storing and locking the new land asset documents of the Haolong project and dealing with the finances of 10,000 people, Xiaoda and I had coffee and talked in the living room at home.
Xiaoda said: "Ah Cai! What do we do next? β
I said, "Tomorrow, we will talk to David Zeng and Brother Long about the development design and construction of Haolong's supporting land!" These two know that we have too much detail! If we avoid them from developing these lands, and they can't get the benefits of these land developments, they may shake out the fact that we conspired with Huang Manhua and Tang Hairong to trade Stav's land! β
Xiaoda said: "Alas! There are too many of these lands! David Zeng and Long Haitao are indeed not good people! We'll pull them into the gang for sure! In addition, Lan Quancheng they will definitely start developing right away, and they are in the land near our project! In case their project robs out of our future customers! In the future, our business will not be good! Therefore, we must develop the land near the Haolong project as soon as possible! β
I said, "Yes! However, the conflict between us and the whole city of Arashi will not be too serious! They are mainly developing high-end residential communities with sea views! And we mainly develop the commercial market, as well as the office area, living area and comprehensive service business area supporting the market! It's a good thing they're ahead of us! In other words, they have helped us improve the living and working environment in the city! β
Xiaoda smiled and said, "Yes! Let them speculate on the housing prices in that area! When the time comes, when we launch houses and shops in large quantities, we attract customers at low prices and make customers come to us! β
I said, "Yes! Doing business is like this, the quality and price of goods determine everything! β
Xiaoda said: "Alas! Brother Long and David Zeng know the details of the land in the southeast of Kowloon City best! Will they use these things to blackmail us?! β
I said, "They are smart people, they don't threaten us directly, but they definitely want to negotiate terms with us!" Tomorrow, let's try their appetite! Looks like we're going to give them a little bit of a stake! β
Xiaoda said: "Ah Cai! Neither of these people is a fuel-efficient lamp! Let's talk to them! β
......
At 9 o'clock in the morning of March 21, Xiaoda, Long Haitao and Zeng David were in the office of the chairman of Haolong Company to discuss the development of 800 hectares of Haolong project, that is, 12,000 acres of supporting land.
I said, "Brother Long, Brother David! The purpose of inviting you here today is to discuss the development of 800 hectares of Haolong project, that is, 12,000 acres of supporting land. You are my best friends and business partners, and I want to hear your advice! β
Brother Long smiled and said, "Ah Cai! I heard that you have recently acquired a lot of land in Port City! Even that old ghost in Lan City, he bought land with you! You are the big landlord of the port city! Ahh This time, why don't you take the piece of land in the southeast of Kowloon City that Stave gave you, and develop it together?! β
I said, "Brother Long! The land in the southeast of Kowloon City is not yet ripe for development! Of course, when our land is developed, we will definitely invite the two of you to participate in the development and share the benefits! Now, let's talk about the cooperative development of the supporting land of the Haolong project! β
Brother Long smiled and said, "Okay! Ahh My forte is engineering and construction! I really don't have much money to spare! I know that a lot of money must be invested in the development of Opteron supporting projects! If, you think, I can shelter you from the wind and rain and escort you! You set up a project development company, you give me a little bit of the project development company's dry shares, and then give me the general contractor of the project! In this way, I promise, how quickly and cost-effectively you will be able to build the whole project! This project has gone well, and the project in the southeast of Kowloon City, we can also cooperate according to this model! β
I said, "Okay! Brother Long, everyone is a businessman, and everyone earns money together! You see, how many dry shares are you going to take in the project company? β
Brother Long smiled and said, "Alas! 100% of the investment money is yours alone, I take more, and I don't have a good reputation if I spread it out! You just give 10% of the dry shares to the project development company! β
I said, "Yes! Brother Long, I agree to give 10% dry shares! Brother David! What do you think? β
David Zeng smiled and said, "Ah Cai! Brother Long helped me get my way out! I'll just go along! The condition of my cooperation is that I will account for 5% of the dry shares in the project company, and at the same time, you will give me the project design package! Kowloon City South East project, I would also like to cooperate with you in this way! This time, I will help the project company do the preliminary plan of the project for free! However, the formal project planning and design fee is charged in the normal way! β
I said, "Good! Brother David, I agree with your way of cooperation! Now, let's talk about the project company name! Today, we register this company! Tomorrow, the preliminary planning and design of the project will begin! β
Xiaoda smiled and said, "Bosses! I just came up with a name, called Xinghailong, which means prosperous sea and prosperous business! β
Brother Long smiled and said, "Alas! Xiaoda is also a cultural person! I love the name! There are dragons and seas, in line with my destiny! β
I said, "Okay! Then this project company is called Xinghailong Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.! Xiaoda, you ask Lawyer Tang to prepare a set of Xinghailong's Articles of Association according to the share structure we just discussed, and I, Brother Long and Brother David are ready to sign this document, and then you and Lawyer Tang go to the company to register! β
Xiaoda immediately went to Lawyer Tang to do something!
Soon, Xiao Da and lawyer Tang came to show the three of us the "Articles of Association" of Xinghailong Company, and the main contents of the "Articles of Association of the Board of Directors of the Company" are as follows:
