Chapter 471 [What a tragedy! 】
In early January, New Era Group announced that the comprehensive development plan for the Hok Yuen Street Power Station site in Hung Hom, in cooperation with CLP, had been approved by the Heung Kong Town Planning Board on 6 January 1992.
The site covers an area of more than 600,000 square feet (change, real data), and New Era Group plans to develop 25 residential towers, providing 4,750 residential units with a total gross floor area of 3.5 million square feet. Commercial floor area of 300,000 square feet. In addition, a children's centre, a kindergarten and other rest facilities will be built, and the whole development will be built in three phases.
For a time, Hong Kong and Kowloon shook.
New Era Group only announced the construction of two large housing estates and a commercial complex in Tsuen Wan last year, with a total investment of $18 billion (including land).
It has only been more than three months since the New Era Group announced a big plan again, which can't help but make people sigh: Lin Chaoren is not inferior to Li Chaoren at all.
Some media also pointed out that in this cooperation, the land compensation fee of New Era Group only cost 2.6 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the average floor compensation land price was only 685 yuan per square foot, which is simply outrageously low.
Even according to the current floor price, the price of this project is more than 17 billion, and New Era Group once again won a big profitable project.
Lin Chaoren also learned from Li Chaoren, after the collapse of August and Nine, he immediately negotiated with the Hong Kong government, this time the Hong Kong government can only say that he has learned a little, but he has not fully learned to be shrewd, so that the New Era Group has saved at least 1.2 billion.
The media pointed out that Li Chaoren has three major estate plans, and Lin Chaoren also has three major estate plans, and he is really Superman.
.......
CLP Power.
Lin Zuhui came to the office of the elder Kadoorie, a 93-year-old man who still sits in the office for 10 hours a day and never retires until he dies.
This made Lin Zuhui, a person who only worked eight hours a day (occasionally working overtime) and often found time to accompany the fairy to eat at noon, felt ashamed.
But on second thought, Warren Buffett spends a lot of time studying financial reports every day, while Lin Zuhui only invests from memory; To put it bluntly, Buffett's more than 30 years of hard work is not as good as Lin Zuhui writing an answer sheet on paper for 1 hour (provided that he has the capital and strength).
It confirms the saying: some people are born in Rome, and some are born as cattle and horses.
In the office, there are also the old ministers of the Kadoorie family, Gordon and Michael Kadoorie.
It seems that next year, when the old Kadoorie dies, Gordon will have to take over as chairman of the board of directors of CLP, and when the time is ripe, he will be handed over to Michael Kadoorie.
In fact, Michael Kadoorie is 51 years old this year, but he was promoted to become a father last year.
Old Kadoorie said: "Mr. Lin is really like a god when it comes to timing. The land compensation fee for the land of Heyuan Power Plant, your company only spent 2.6 billion, which can be described as the Whampoa dock of Li Chaoren. ”
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Anyway, CLP didn't suffer, did it?" ”
Although the share of New Era Group is 55%, the land compensation fee and construction cost are all owned by New Era Group, so in total, CLP still did not suffer a loss.
For general projects, the land and construction costs are 55 cents each; Obviously, because of the land repayment, the Kadoorie family did not even have the land complete.
Kadoorie smiled and said, "Of course! There are many people who cooperate with Lin Sheng, and they basically praise you, and we are very satisfied with this cooperation. ”
In fact, in Lin Zuhui's view, this project can be sold for an average of 7,000 yuan per square foot, almost 30 billion sales (including shopping malls), land compensation, construction costs, and tax costs are almost 8 billion, and the net profit is more than 20 billion.
New Era Group can earn more than 11 billion, which is not too cool.
Huijing Garden can also earn more than 10 billion because it is an exclusive sharing of profits.
Li Chaoren's Laguna City also has to earn 11 billion, and as for the projects in Ap Lei Chau and Tin Shui Wai, they are basically more than 20 billion.
The real estate in Xiangjiang is really profitable!
Lin Zuhui said modestly: "Win-win cooperation, this is how it should be!" ”
Everyone talked about the project, mainly Lin Zuhui was introducing the development plan of the project to the Kadoorie family, after all, this project was developed by the New Era Group, and CLP only shared the profits. Let them know about it appropriately, so that people can be reassured.
Kadoorie and his son are very satisfied that the development experience of New Era Group is not inferior to any real estate company in Heungjiang, and it has slightly better strength.
When Lin Zuhui left, Michael Kadoorie gave him a ride, and as the two worked happily together at the Grand Hotel, Lin and Michael Kadoorie became friends, occasionally holding friends gatherings.
Although the Kadoorie family is Jewish, they have a mediocre relationship with Israel because of some grudges back then. Therefore, the Kadoorie family does charity, generally in the mainland of Hong Kong, Europe and the United States, but Israel is disproportionate.
It is precisely because the Kadoorie family regards Hong Kong as their home base that everyone can be friends, mainly because they often intersect.
"By the way, what do you think of investing in a Peninsula hotel in Thailand?" Lin Zuhui asked suddenly.
Michael Kadoorie said somewhat conservatively: "In the past two years, the tourism industry in Hong Kong has been sluggish, resulting in a low occupancy rate of the hotel industry, and the occupancy rate of The Peninsula Hotel is only more than 7%. Isn't it a bit out of place to expand now? Of course, I am also more optimistic about Thailand, and it is still possible to invest in a peninsula hotel. ”
From 1980 to 1986, the average occupancy rate of hotels in Hong Kong was 86%, higher than the international average of 65% to 67%. 1988 was a golden year for Hong Kong's hotel industry, with an occupancy rate of 92%. During the peak tourist season, almost every hotel is "bursting", and many hotels have repeatedly apologized for not being able to meet the reservations of overseas tour groups.
It is precisely because of such a good market that in the late 80s, a large number of luxury five-star and four-star hotels were built in Xiangjiang; As a result, by the time these hotels were built, tourism in Hong Kong had already languished.
At present, only the Peninsula Hotel and the four hotels under New World can maintain an occupancy rate of more than 70%, and even the Furama Hotel has only an occupancy rate of 65% after renovation.
The Mandarin Hotel was even worse, with an occupancy rate of just over 40 percent in 1990 and just over 50 percent in 1991. (Break even if the occupancy rate reaches 48%)
When Lin Zuhui heard Michael Kadoorie's conservative words, he did not rush to promote it, but said: "Then keep this for now, and then consider it after the tourism industry in Hong Kong is booming!" ”
Michael nodded happily, don't look at Lin Zuhui, although he is only the vice chairman of the board of directors of the Grand Hotel, he has already gained a firm foothold in the Peninsula Hotel. The main reason was to acquire the remaining shares of the Peninsula Hotels in Manila, New York and Los Angeles, which saved the company a lot of money.
Importantly, Lim Cho Fai is still the majority shareholder of the hotel, while the Kadoorie family has only increased their stake to 25%, but they are no longer able to do so.
Because, the market value of The Peninsula Hotel is already as high as 30 billion!
Since Lin Zuhui became the owner of The Peninsula, the company's market value has remained high, even when the stock market plummeted in eight or nine years, The Peninsula Hotel was very resistant to falling, and then quickly rose.
This situation has set up a big obstacle for the Kadoorie family to increase its holdings.
No solution!
.......
1 Pak Ka Road.
At night, Lin Zuhui was lying on the bed, feeling a little excited, because Guan, Li, and Lin were creating surprises for him.
I don't know what's going on, Lin Zuhui likes this combination very much, 38-year-old Lin Zixia, 30-year-old Guan Jiahui, and 22-year-old Li Jiaxin. (Above)
After a while, three beauties walked in, and Lin Zuhui was stunned!
"You're going to test the cadres with this?" He couldn't help but burst out a sentence.
Fortunately, the three daughters all know that Lin Zuhui is a mainlander and a new immigrant, and Lin Zuhui doesn't care about others saying that he is a mainlander. Mainlanders can become the richest man in Xiangjiang, and tens of thousands of people in Xiangjiang can work for him, this is strength.
Li Jiaxin was wearing a college uniform and said in a tone full of resentment: "Brother Hui, this is the same dress as "Blue Life and Death Love", why did ATV write that the heroine has cancer? This drama, I watched an episode and cried an episode, I heard that this is the drama you hand-picked? ”
Lin Zixia is wearing a set of light beige fashion, which looks like a 'Hong Kong Stream' style, and what satisfies Lin Zuhui the most is her boiling upper circumference. I saw that she was about to cry, and said: "This drama is really tragic, but it's addictive to watch!" ”
Guan Jiahui was also dressed in Hong Kong Stream costumes, nodded seriously, and then asked pitifully: "Can you tell us that the heroine's cancer has been cured?" Did the two end up together? ”
Lin Zuhui was speechless for a moment, what about what to expect?
In addition to Li Jiaxin's college style, there are some expectations, and it seems that it should be an ambiguous heroine student era. The other two girls are really not tempting at all.
"How can I spoil it, this is the most immoral thing!"
The three girls immediately surrounded them!
"Zu Hui, you really know the ending, can you tell us? We promise not to spread the word! ”
"It's Brother Hui, tell us!"
For a while, Lin Zuhui felt the charm of "Blue Life and Death Love".
"No, I won't do anything that goes against principle! But I'm curious, have you already sold all the clothes on you? ”
Lin Zixia and Li Jiaxin were immediately disappointed, but Guan Jiahui said: "Yes, it was still a fashion brand, and the costumes designed for the heroes and heroines of this drama were still fashion brands!" Didn't you say that you want to make a gimmick of 'celebrity with the same style', our stores have already advertised! ”
Lin Zuhui nodded with satisfaction, Hong Kong culture naturally includes clothing, and LEIT Group has two clothing brands, which are specially designed for the Hong Kong style described by Lin Zuhui, and are sold and promoted in Xiangjiang.
Although he is not a designer, he always remembers some styles of clothing from his previous life, describes them a little, and then allows the designers to play themselves.
"It's very good, it is necessary to follow the culture of Hong Kong! In this way, our clothes can sell better in the world! ”
After a brief compliment, Lin Zuhui looked at the third girl and shook his head, expressing dissatisfaction!
The three of them were deliberately playing tricks on Lin Zuhui, so they burst into tears and laughed, and then went to disguise themselves again.
After a while, the three of them really walked in in satisfactory costumes and came to Lin Zuhui to show it.
There should be no tragedy in this world, may the tragedy only exist in the TV series.
However, in January, there were indeed two or three million people in Xiangjiang, who shed tears while watching "Blue Life and Death Love". As the first drama of Hong Kong culture, what you want is to be impressed.
