Chapter 431 [Fiery Real Estate]
On Monday, the negotiations with Burton Group went relatively smoothly, and Burton Group saw that Lin Zuhui insisted on bidding 52 million pounds, so he did not sit on the ground again. They just want to lose this money-losing department store now, and having a Chinese take over is simply a gift from God.
Lin Zuhui didn't dwell too much, if LEIT Group wants to really expand, only through this kind of mergers and acquisitions, the European century-old brand with too good performance will not be the turn of Chinese-funded companies.
Especially the French national treasure brand, Lin Zuhui is unlikely to acquire, unless the brand is perennially loss-making, and there are not too many locals to compete, it is possible to be approved by the government, such as the French 'Pengdu' luxury brand in the hands of Pan Disheng.
You must know that after the Gallic chicken's 'Latour' was bought by the British, it caused a big stir, and then the Gallic chicken went to great lengths to buy back the national treasure red wine brand.
Therefore, when it comes to the acquisition of century-old European brands, it is very difficult. The acquisition of this department store does not require the approval of the London government, and the procedure is relatively simple!
After the price is negotiated, the LEIT Group will send a team to audit the 'Harros Boutique Department Store' before it can officially sign the contract. However, the latter things will naturally be handled by Chen Shiwen, the president.
In the next two days, Lin Zuhui conducted a senior staff recruitment for LEIT Group's London headquarters and selected three senior staff; One of them, an Englishman named Ian, was appointed vice president of the LEIT group and was in charge of European affairs.
The main battlefield of LEIT Group's business is still Asia, and the reason why Lin Zuhui let it develop in Europe is because it is the center of world fashion, and he hopes to bring the advantages of Europe to Asia.
The development of the two brands of Harros Boutique Department Store and Ouchi Secret Agent is to drive business growth in Asia, and as for Europe itself, it is just hoped that it will not lose money and can have good long-term stable profits.
Time flies, and ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Thursday, March 14.
In the office of ACN Center, Lin Zuhui stood in front of the window, looking at the 'long queue' under the 'Twin Towers', his brows furrowed.
Those who lined up heard that New Era Real Estate's 'Huijing Garden' would be launched within a few days, and there was a long queue at the sales office of ACN Center Building, the headquarters of New Era Group.
After a while, Chen Xiaofen walked to Lin Zuhui's office and said with some anxiety on her face: "Boss, from yesterday to today, we have posted notices many times to persuade the citizens to leave, but those people have no intention of leaving, and they have the intention of fighting for a long time. ”
Lin Zuhui immediately said: "No, it's easy to cause accidents!" You immediately contact the police to come forward, you must not go on like this! ”
Chen Xiaofen nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away!" ”
The property market has exploded!
In March 1991, the property market in Hong Kong was gaining momentum, especially the well-equipped large-scale private housing estates, including Whampoa Garden, Taikoo Shing, Kornhill Garden, Heng Fa Estate, Telford Garden, etc., especially the property prices of Taikoo Shing and Whampoa Garden rose sharply from $2,300 per square foot to $3,300 per square foot from the end of February.
New Era Land's 'Sceneway Garden' is the last large-scale private housing estate along the MTR line, which is very popular with the public.
However, the sales period of New Era Real Estate is next Friday, how can it be possible to sell in advance because these people are queuing, that will be chaotic.
At this time, downstairs in the ACN Center, the crowd was boiling, and from time to time there were community members eyeing each other. However, almost all of the people in the team are speculators from Xiangjiang, and they also have backgrounds.
What's more, if it provokes public anger, the members of the community will definitely not be able to get benefits. Back then, because the club cut the queue, a scuffle broke out, and the result was that the club was beaten to pieces, which shows how terrible the crazy crowd is.
"Dude, are you planning to flip the house, or do you use it yourself?" In the crowd, a young man said to the eldest brother in front.
The queue doesn't know when it will be, so at this time, the queue asks each other about the situation, or makes a deal.
"I'm from the real estate speculation group, can't I be nosy!" The thirty-year-old strong man seemed to be dissatisfied with the young man's inquiry, and said inwardly.
In fact, he planned to buy his own residence, but the reason why he was able to learn the news in advance was thanks to a relative who worked in New Era Real Estate.
Young people are the real speculators, and they are team-based, although they are young, they have a very vicious vision.
"Brother, I don't mean anything else, I just want to make a deal with you, if you can get a unit, I will buy it immediately at a price 80,000 Hong Kong dollars higher. Brother, if you think about it, you just line up and spend a few days to earn 80,000 yuan, what a bargain! ”
The strong man showed a heartfelt expression, their family has a house to live in, but they want to change to a slightly better one. However, the 80,000 Hong Kong dollars are obviously very tempting, and the salary for more than a year is over. Speaking of changing houses, it is not necessary to change the house in Huijing Garden.
However, he soon remembered his relative who worked in real estate, and he admired the house in Huijing Garden very much, saying that all aspects of the equipment in this community are of high quality in large housing estates in Xiangjiang, and there is a lot of room for appreciation in the future.
"Not for sale!" The strong man gritted his teeth and said.
The young man was already happy when he saw the strong man's heartbeat, because he was confident that he could earn at least 250,000 yuan in a month.
However, Dahan was suddenly resolute, which made him regret it.
"Big brother, this is my business card, if you think about it, you can call me at any time!"
"Got it!"
This kind of situation happens a lot in the crowd, and Xiangjiang has set off a house speculation craze.
Due to the active property market, many properties exited by real estate developers in Hong Kong, Kowloon and the New Territories were sold out instantly, and property prices rose rapidly. Even for properties that have not yet been registered and put up for sale, there is already a queue at the sales office, lest the opportunity be fleeting.
At around 10 a.m., a large number of JCs appeared at the ACN Center, and they began to disperse the crowd, and the people in line were reluctant to leave. JC's eviction is still very effective, and New Era Real Estate has posted announcements many times and persuaded them to leave.
Lin Zuhui looked at the crowd that was driven away by JC, and then he put his mind at ease, really let these people queue for seven or eight days, and when some people didn't buy it, the resentment would be even greater, so it was better to drive them away early.
After a while, Liang Zhenxun walked in, holding a report in his hand and respectfully handing it to Lin Zuhui.
"Boss, the latest asset revaluation report is out!"
"Okay, I'll see later."
Lin Zuhui asked again: "How active is the real estate market outside?" ”
Talking about this, Liang Zhenxun said vividly: "It's too active! In social places, everyone is talking about property prices and exchanging experience in property speculation. Mortgage departments of banks, law firms, and estate agents are all busy. Some estate agents are even busy from 9 a.m. to the early hours of the next morning in order to earn more commissions. I estimate that spot speculators account for about 55% of the market, and pre-sale speculators are as high as 70%. ”
Hearing this, Lin Zuhui didn't know whether to be happy or happy!
It's actually a bit sad!
This made him more determined to 'rejuvenate Hong Kong with Hong Kong culture', 'rejuvenate Hong Kong with comics', and 'rejuvenate Hong Kong with traditional Chinese medicine'.
Of course, the dividends of the property market should be earned more.
Otherwise, the strength he came from there would be worrying about the country and the people!
After Liang Zhenxun left, Lin Zuhui looked at the information of 'Asset Revaluation of New Era Group' seriously.
The net asset value has reached 82.86 billion Hong Kong dollars!
Very high-quality assets, if it weren't for the office market since the collapse of '89, the assets of New Era Group would be even higher.
New Era Group is now a well-deserved real estate overlord, which means that in another year or two, Lin Zuhui will be roasted on the fire.
In the previous life, it was Li Chaoren who stood in front of the major real estate developers, and in this life, it will become Li Chaoren in front of the major real estate developers.
But in any case, when the Hong Kong government intends to crack down on real estate developers, the major real estate associations are very united.
The real estate economy in Xiangjiang occupies too large a proportion, and naturally the power of major real estate developers is also very large, and the Hong Kong government cannot move, at most to curb the rise in housing prices.
Lin Zuhui came to the News Building and continued to supervise his layout of 'comics to rejuvenate Hong Kong'.
He didn't expect the manga industry to reach the level of Japan, but if Xiangjiang is one-20th of Japan's in terms of population, then it means that it can also support an industrial chain of tens of billions and hundreds of billions. Of course, this industrial chain is to be extended overseas.
came to his office, and soon Long Jingchang, Luo Bencheng, Zhao Han and others came together.
"Tell me about the two comic project teams that are being prepared?" Lin Zuhui said.
Luo Bencheng immediately sat up straight and reported seriously: "There are a total of nine members of the project team of "Pokémon", one Japanese chief writer with two Japanese assistants, two Chinese main writers with four Chinese assistants. The project team of "Detective Conan" is a total of six people, and there is also a Japanese chief writer and two assistants who have all assembled and are consulting materials and ideas according to our outline. It is expected that it will be officially serialized in June. ”
Lin Zuhui nodded, this speed should be, the original author of "Detective Conan" conceived for 2 weeks and started creating. And Lin Zuhui directly gave the approximate ideas of the two themes, which is equivalent to setting the general direction, even if the talent of these main writers is not as good as the original author, but at least others are also getting an annual salary of 300~5 million, and there is a commission. Without a little talent, it is impossible to be dug into Xiangjiang.
"First draw portraits of the protagonists Conan, Ash, Pikachu, etc., and then hand them over to me for review, and set the style before you can continue to create!"
"Okay!"
For these main characters and elves, Lin Zuhui still has memories, and he also described them to his subordinates, I believe that they can be seventy percent similar.
In fact, even if he snatched the names of these two anime, Lin Zuhui felt that it was worth it. If he could reach fifty percent of the influence in his previous life, he would be able to laugh in his dreams. Even if he achieves 30% of the influence, he will earn it by blood. If the effect is 70%, he has almost single-handedly led the comic industry in Hong Kong.
Lin Zuhui continued: "You must conscientiously implement the tasks of setting up a special serialized comic magazine, "Manke Show", setting up comic training classes, establishing/acquiring animation production companies, acquiring toy factories, and setting up peripheral development project teams. 'Comic Xinghong' is the rise of Wanhui Media, and then drive the entire comic industry in Xiangjiang forward, we must have the spirit of pioneers! ”
"Okay," everyone echoed in unison.
After the meeting, Luo Bencheng took Lin Zuhui to the two production project teams. Lin Zuhui used fluent Japanese to exchange opinions with the Japanese writer, and also encouraged the chief writer of Heung Kong to give more play to his own opinions, not to make the comics exactly the same as Japanese comics, but to add a small number of Chinese comics to their own elements.
Of course, whether it is the Pokémon world or the background world of Conan, it is a fictional world; In this way, it will be easier to promote overseas.
