Chapter 370 [Debt Reduction]

Saturday, December 9th.

The big D club (also known as 'Lam Cheng Group' in the media) held a party at the Clear Water Bay Golf and Country Club, with members including Lin Zuhui, Zheng Yutong, Liu Luanxiong, Yang Shoucheng, Pan Disheng, Fang Jin, and today Lin Zuhui brought Zhou Xingchi.

Taking Zhou Xingchi was just a very casual act, and it wasn't true that he was qualified to participate, at least not now.

Among them, although Pan Disheng has a close relationship with the Zheng family, he has become closer to Lin Zuhui in recent years; And Fang Jin is Lin Zuhui's younger brother, he brought it in, Zheng Yutong naturally won't say anything.

And Zhou Xingchi has already been promoted to 'Star Master' in the past two years, and has shot ten movies for DreamWorks, with a total box office of more than 300 million; Of course, he doesn't make much, and he almost doesn't get 15 million in total, and he only earns 30 million net worth if he counts advertising fees.

However, Lin Zuhui recently introduced him to Fang Jin and asked him to buy some houses and wait for appreciation, which can be regarded as appreciating him.

Zhou Xingchi still has two years left in his contract with DreamWorks, but if he changes jobs with one mind, there will be a lot of 10 million liquidated damages for him; Therefore, the salary has been raised twice this year, and it is currently around 2 million a movie.

Everyone first drank and chatted in a large private room in the clubhouse, and basically every party was chatting, hoeing, and playing golf.

Lin Zuhui leaned on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, held a red wine glass in his hand, and a group of younger brothers were waiting around him, still very comfortable. It's not that the little brother is comfortable, but the famous little brother is very comfortable.

Pan Disheng in his left hand, Fang Jin in his right hand, and Zhou Xingchi sat on the side;

Zheng Yutong is on the side of Liu Luanxiong and Yang Shoucheng on the other.

Zheng Yutong spoke first: "Today Ah Hui, you have to accompany us to get rid of the big D, every time you say that you want to go back to accompany your girlfriend, it's not good to give yourself a holiday?" Ha ha! But it was a joke.

Lin Zuhui immediately said unceremoniously: "If you hoe from afternoon to night, I really have to give you leave, let Fang Jin play with you!" ”

Zheng Yutong looked at Fang Jin and asked, "Millions of cards, no problem, right?" ”

Fang Jin said with a smile: "No problem, Uncle Tong, what time you say to hit is what time it is!" ”

Everyone is a little curious, and people with a net worth of more than 100 million may not be able to afford to play this game, at least with a net worth of hundreds of millions. Could it be that Fang Jin followed Lin Zuhui, and his net worth skyrocketed again?

Only Lin Zuhui knows that Fang Jin's kid is now worth more than 200 million, and this is not counting the matter of buying real estate this time; Although Lin Zuhui didn't say anything clearly, Fang Jin also understood it through Li Zhi's timing of the house speculation. What's more, Lin Zuhui also asked him to take Zhou Xingchi to buy a house together.

Of course, people like Fang Jin, Zhou Xingchi and others don't dare to invest too much in real estate speculation, and if it really plummets, they will go bankrupt.

At this time, Yang Shoucheng humbly asked Lin Zuhui for advice: "Zuhui, I want to go public recently, what do you think of the timing?" ”

In fact, we rarely talk about business together, but we inevitably talk about writing business.

Yang Shoucheng thought about Lin Zuhui's strength in the financial field, so he couldn't help but ask.

Lin Zuhui said: "You have answered, naturally you have to do it, and now the market is still okay!" ”

Yang Shoucheng nodded, he had indeed decided to go public by backdoor, he also understands finance, after all, he has a large number of foreign exchange brokers.

When Fang Jin heard Yang Shoucheng say this, he was also very moved, and hurriedly said: "I also plan to go public by backdoor recently!" ”

Fangjin has a construction company and an intermediary company, and its main business is to buy old stores and buildings, renovate them, and sell them piecemeal.

Lin Zuhui suddenly remembered that he still had a shell of 'China Entertainment' that he didn't need. Because ATV does not need a backdoor listing to go public, if it meets any of the conditions for listing, the backdoor listing will be more complicated.

"Did you find the shell?"

"Not yet, I also heard Brother Yang talk about backdoor listing, so I made a temporary idea!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "I happen to have an empty shell, you can take it later!" ”

Fang Jin immediately knew that it was the shell of China Entertainment Company, it was a good shell, and he nodded hurriedly.

Since China Entertainment Company became a shell company, it has not stopped developing, but has been speculating in properties and stocks, and its current net assets are about 80 million, and Lin Zuhui holds 49% of the shares. If Fang Jin needs it, he will sell it for exactly 50 million.

After a little more chit-talk, we started to play golf as a team.

During this period, Lin Zuhui called Zhou Xingchi and said, "How much value of property did you buy?" ”

Zhou Xingchi didn't have the shyness he used to have, and said with a smile: "The property worth 50 million is just a down payment of 3%!" ”

Lin Zuhui was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "It seems that you are quite bold, and you are not afraid that I will shake you!" ”

Zhou Xingchi said very confidently: "Boss, what should I do, and all Hong Kong citizens know that after the collapse this year, boss, you are speculating on tens of billions of real estate projects!" ”

Lin Zuhui smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and then walked towards the golf course.

Of course, Zhou Xingchi knew that the boss was reminding himself, and of course, he also knew that he was valued by the company because of his value. In fact, he also thought about paying off the default fee and leaving DreamWorks.

However, he felt that he could not afford to offend his boss, who was the overlord of television, newspapers, and magazines.

Fortunately, now the salary has risen to 2 million, which is not unacceptable! Especially recently, the boss introduced Fang Jin to himself, Zhou Xingchi knew that he was developed, and he had always wanted to buy a property, but before the crash, he bought two thousand-foot mansions, both of which were bought to the ceiling. After the crash, he worries that house prices will continue to fall.

It wasn't until November, when the boss introduced Fang Jin to him, that he felt that he had found an organization.

Everyone played from morning to afternoon, and when Lin Zuhui left, Zheng Yutong, Da Liu, Yang Shoucheng, and Fang Jin organized a good game again, and it seemed that they had to fight until late at night, or even all night.

The reason why Lin Zuhui doesn't need to socialize at night is because he now has four sons and two daughters, Cai Ning gave birth to a daughter in October this year, and Qiu Shuzhen gave birth to a son in November.

fully confirms a problem, the birth of boys and girls is a factor occupied by men, you must know that Qiu Shuzhen gave birth to three daughters in her previous life, and did not give birth to a son. This also made Lin Zuhui feel at ease, Qiu, Li, and Lin were all daughters in their previous lives.

......

On Monday, Lin Zuhui called Gao Yi and Liang Zhenxun to his office.

"Arrange to sell 20% of the interests of the International Baotong Center and Central Plaza to my personal real estate company, Hengjin Real Estate, at a total price of 1.5 billion. Then, New Era Group repaid the loan of 3 billion and reduced the debt to 12 billion. ”

Gao Yi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it!" ”

He originally wanted to buy the Causeway Bay World Trade Center directly, but he felt that that would expose the strength of Hengjin Real Estate. After buying the 20% interest in Central Plaza and the GIC Center, Hengjin Real Estate holds a 50% interest in the two projects (three buildings).

The management party is still Chinese Real Estate, and Hengjin Real Estate only needs to enjoy dividends every year, and in this way, everyone knows that these two projects are the properties of Chinese Real Estate, and will not be considered to be the properties of Hengjin Real Estate.

Liang Zhenxun said: "After such an operation, New Era Group not only reduced its debt to 12 billion, but also has nearly 1 billion cash and more than 500 million foreign exchange investment on its books, which is enough to cope with the tender for Kwai Chung Container Terminal No. 8 next month." ”

In 1988, Li Chaoren won the No. 7 container terminal at a price of 4.5 billion; Today, Container Terminal 8 and Container Terminal 7 are both four berths, but slightly smaller in size. In addition, the market is not good now, so the winning bid price should be around 5 billion.

In fact, if the bid is won, New Era Group will only have one-eighth of the equity, that is, a quarter of the shares of sea and land containers.

Therefore, the New Era Group has invested only six or seven billion yuan in the container terminal, and the subsequent construction will take loans.

Lin Zuhui said: "The funds are quite sufficient, and the purchase of land cannot be stopped. Follow-up debt, and then slowly consider reducing holdings! ”

If you can earn more than 500 million yuan in foreign exchange, you can repay another 1 billion together with the principal.

As for ACN's construction costs, they are actually paid through rent and loans at the same time.

Liang Zhenxun and Gao Yi knew that the boss was very familiar with the company's planning, so their management never considered the problem of excessive debt. At the very least, they think that the boss's personal funds are very sufficient, and if something really happens to the company, the boss will always come up with the funds to rescue the company.

After the two left, Lin Zuhui calculated.

2.5 billion for the purchase of 25% of the shares of Modern Containers, 600 million for the purchase of 20% of the shares of ATV, 2 billion for the subscription of 'warrants' of the New Era Group, and 1.5 billion for the purchase of Chinese real estate properties;

Together with the $2 billion he invested in USD/JPY, he spent another $8.5 billion, and his huge debt of $6.5 billion is still outstanding.

However, he is not worried, Japanese securities will almost be able to withdraw about 15 billion.

If Forex and Nikkei make money, it will be his free money along with the principal.

Not only that, but his Hengjin Real Estate owns a lot of rent-collecting properties:

Seventy percent interest in Terrigande Court Blocks 2 & 3 (Block 3 under construction)

20% interest in the Convention and Exhibition Center Building (140,000 sq. ft., already leased out)

50% interest in Citi Centre and Central Plaza (first-class commercial building with a total area of 3.05 million square feet)

32 shops (shops in Central, Causeway Bay, Wan Chai, Tsim Sha Tsui, with a total area of 23,000 square feet and a current value of about $900 million)

The office building is about 300,000 square feet (worth 1 billion, the largest unit is a floor, the smallest is a household)

6 garden-style villas (worth 300 million)

15 single-family/townhouses (worth 400 million)

62 luxury units (approximately 200,000 sf in size, valued at $550 million)

Two industrial buildings (500,000 square feet, valued at 250 million)

The current value of these properties is about seven or eight billion, after all, there are still projects to start building.

Moreover, these properties are only hung on Hengjin Real Estate, and the properties of Lin Zuhui himself and the fairies are not included.

For example, Guan Jiahui bought 250 residences of the New Era Group this time, and the monthly loan repayment was enough for her to drink a pot, so Lin Zuhui asked her to squat, and she never dared to stand up.

After entering the 90s, housing prices in Xiangjiang will rise for about 8 years, that is, before the Asian financial crisis.

The eight-year upward trend, according to the statistics of the relevant departments of Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang is still 350,000 ~ 500,000 residential units, which shows how strong the rise will be!

......

The next day, the groundbreaking ceremony of the Citiac Center was held, and Citicom attached great importance to the project, and even the senior management of the U.S. headquarters came to Hong Kong in person.

And because of the relationship between Gigcat, there were many guests at this groundbreaking ceremony, and they were basically partners of Gigiba. Wilson was invited by Steve Steve, the head of IWC Symphony, and Pu Weis, who came to HSBC, arrived.

The total construction cost of the GIC Center is 2.2 billion yuan, with interest of 700 million yuan and land cost of 3.1 billion yuan, for a total investment of 6 billion yuan.

The construction cost of the whole project is relatively high, and it is naturally a first-class commercial building, not only that, but the building is designed to have an optical fiber central communication system.

The future of this building can easily be regarded as the property of IWC, which is also one of Lin Zuhui's original intentions, that is, to hide wealth.

After the grand completion of the groundbreaking ceremony, everyone enjoyed the wine banquet in the built place.

Lin Zuhui is still the most popular figure, although Wilson is the boss of the Hong Kong government, but it is not very important for foreign investment; On the contrary, many people came to Lin Zuhui's side, hoping to get to know each other and have the possibility of cooperation.

This is the case with John, the senior American executive of International Treasure Paper, in his opinion, Lin Zuhui is about to go out of the world for development, after all, Hong Kong is still too small.

Tomato is free to read

"Mr. Lin, you have been looking up for a long time, you are also famous on Wall Street!" John said as he handed over his business card.

Some things can't be hidden at all, for example, Lin Zuhui is a master of foreign exchange speculation!

Lin Zuhui returned the salute and said with a smile: "Mr. John has won the award, I haven't even been to Wall Street, how can I have prestige!" ”

After a polite remark, John took the initiative to mention: "Does Mr. Lin have any plans to invest more in the United States?" ”

Lin Zuhui said simply: "Yes! But I haven't thought about the project yet, and I'll go to the United States next year to investigate! ”

John immediately said happily: "Our Citigroup is a big consortium in the United States, if Mr. Lin needs any help and cooperation projects, you can contact me, I will be warm!" ”

Steve added, "Mr. Lin, you have to trust us at Citi, and as far as I know, you've invested in some projects on the West Coast of the United States, and you know you're passionate about Los Angeles and San Francisco. Quite simply, we at Citi are the largest consortium on the West Coast. ”

Although Citigroup is headquartered in New York, it belongs to a consortium that has emerged in the west, and Boeing is a company controlled by it.

Lin Zuhui nodded, Xiangjiang billionaires are definitely very popular in Europe and the United States, and officials from various provinces in Canada often visit Lin Zuhui, hoping that Lin Zuhui will invest in Canada. He didn't refuse, but he talked about it after the nineties.

Therefore, even if Lin Zuhui does not really go out of Xiangjiang, he has actually accumulated a lot of contacts in Europe and the United States.

Next, some people came to Lin Zuhui one after another, and he greeted him with a smile and handled it very well. It's hard to imagine that a young man in his twenties, in a group of old people, can be so calm and unusually confident. With this temperament, he beat the descendants of those European and American nobles and consortia.

If Lin Zuhui knew these thoughts, he would definitely despise them in his heart, and the so-called nobles of Europe and the United States were worthless in his eyes. He is a self-made tycoon, and he is in the golden treasure of Xiangjiang, not to mention that he is most proud of the sense of superiority brought by his body.

Some people live for 80 years, so Lin Zuhui can confidently say that he lives more comfortably than others for several lifetimes.
