Since February, real estate transactions in Hong Kong have been active again, mainly due to the fact that major real estate developers have provided additional mortgage services, and even some small and medium-sized banks have begun to secretly increase mortgages.

Major property developers have taken the opportunity to launch some residential units in some large estates to stimulate the market and achieve active trading, and the results are also very encouraging.

this day.

Lam Cho-fai, Cheng Yu-tung and Lee Shau-kee came to Kwai Chung Container Terminal to inspect the work.

"It's a good site, and it's a container building that can be bigger than the one in front of it. Thanks to the friendship between Uncle Tong and the Hong Kong government, this time he didn't return empty-handed! Lin Zuhui sighed.

Zheng Yutong said with a smile: "You finalized three ports in the mainland, what is the container building I built." Before the words fell, he said sadly: "It's just that the Hong Kong government and the mainland continue to make trouble like this, and I don't know how many livelihood projects will be deadlocked!" ”

At the end of last year, the Hong Kong government did not directly enter the bid based on the price, but directly allocated the four berths of the Kwai Chung Container Terminal No. 9: 2 berths for Asian containers, 1 for international containers, and 1 for modern containers.

In summary, Asian containers are the big winners, which is also in line with the purpose of the new Hong Kong government's new team to crack down on the monopoly of international containers.

Asia Container has five shareholders, namely: New Era Group (38%), New World Development (28%), Henderson, Jardine Matheson, Hailu and Land, if you win two berths at Container Terminal 9, it is equivalent to having five container berths in Kwai Chung.

However, the mainland government and the Feipeng Hong Kong government are in conflict, unilaterally vetoing the distribution plan, arguing that the major project has not communicated with the mainland, and saying that it will not be recognized after Jiuqi.

In this way, the bidding for the No. 9 container terminal naturally could not be calculated, and it was also shelved.

However, now that Kwai Chung Container Terminal is too busy, many container ships need to queue up to unload their cargo, which affects the local development of Hong Kong.

That's why Zheng Yutong said that because the two sides are so big at home, many major livelihood projects can only be postponed, including Lantau International Airport.

Lin Zuhui replied: "There is no way! It seems that it may take two or three years to make trouble, and everyone should be ready! ”

He suddenly understood that if he guessed, it would mean that the property on the Jitie Station might have to be in 1995.

At this time, Li Shaoji suddenly said: "Zu Hui, your relationship in the mainland is so good, I see that after you won Modu Port, Rongqi Port, and Zhuhai Port, you stopped, not like your style at all!" After speaking, he looked at Lin Zuhui with a smile.

His meaning is very simple, in the competition with Li Chaoren, Lin Zuhui has always been very active.

Zheng Yutong also said: "That's right! Ah Cheng has won a lot of ports recently, and he is more powerful and active than you! ”

In his opinion, there is no need to be humble about this!

There are no fathers and sons, let alone friends.

If they arrive at the auction house, the three of them are competitors, and they each auction the land according to their ability, and it is impossible to see the friendship between the three parties.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "The competition is no more than Li Chaoren, he has been in the mainland for so many years, Yantian Port is all in his pocket, and the above name is handed over to him to do, not that he also accompanied the leaders to inspect Yantian Port." There are other Shantou Port, Beihai Port and the like, he is the first, and I can't get him. ”

This is somewhat credible, Li Chaoren also has a deep relationship with the mainland, and the mainland also hopes to cooperate equally.

As for Wu Guangzhen, the mainland doesn't want to pay attention to him now!

Of course, with the early investment of the charter king, Ningbo Port still let Jiucang invest.

As for the other ports, that's not to be thought of.

Although the matter of the No. 9 container terminal was delayed this time, Zheng Yutong took the method of the Hong Kong government and won a large piece of land for the construction of the container building.

Once completed, the container building will once again be the world's largest container warehouse, expected to be completed in 1996.

The three of them inspected the land of the container building together and found a tea room to sit together.

Lin Zuhui said: "This month, I plan to set up a private real estate fund, and I invite you to come and support it when the time comes!" ”

The two became interested, and Lee Shau Kee immediately asked, "Copy the commercial real estate in Manhattan?" ”

Lin Zuhui nodded without concealment, and said: "It is indeed a commercial real estate in Manhattan, but I don't plan to buy it directly in the market, but I plan to buy it from the property handled by the government, so that it can be cheaper!" Of course, the location is also particular, and it is best to have a commercial property near the university, because the university cannot be moved. ”

Because of the serious slump in commercial real estate in the United States in recent years, real estate companies and commercial banks in the United States have suffered serious crises, and countless bankruptcies. And some of the properties that were mortgaged to the banks, and now the banks have failed again, so the New York government simply sold and auctioned the mortgaged properties to pay off the debt.

But in fact, the more it falls to the trough, the more people who buy it, after all, the panic is greater.

So at this time, it is quite profitable to pick up the leak.

Lee Shau Kee said in admiration: "You are still amazing, there are various ways in the world!" ”

Lin Zuhui said: "You also have a lot of ways, aren't you humble!" ”

Lee Shau Kee waved his hand and said: "Our door is the way to take the initiative to come up, and those people are worried about our money, so they come to the door to pull investment." But I know that projects that come to your door don't necessarily make money. ”

In fact, don't look at Lee Shau Kee's reputation among the four major real estate families, but this year's wealth is higher than that of the other three families; Because he has a high stake in Henderson Land, and he directly controls the blue chip of China Gas.

Although Li Chaoren controls many consortia, he does not directly control Hutchison Whampoa and HK Electric, so it will not be counted as his wealth.

Lin Zuhui continued: "Not necessarily! By the way, Uncle Tong, are you buying a hotel in the United States? ”

This matter spread outside, and Lin Zuhui inherently asked.

Zheng Yutong said generously: "Well, it takes almost $700 million. But I think the same thing as you, the European and American economies began to slump in the late 80s, and now it has been three or four years, and it is the right time to buy the bottom. ”

The Cheng Yutong family spent US$700 million (about HK$6 billion) to acquire 28 hotels of the Stouffer Group in the United States and 9 hotels of the Penta Group in Europe. Among the 28 hotels in the United States, they are located in Chicago, Seattle, Florida, Hawaii and other places, of which New World owns 19 of them and has management contracts for 9 of them.

In Lin Zuhui's view, Zheng Yutong's family should use the money to do real estate business.

Of course, the Zheng Yutong family has always wanted to become the hotel king of Xiangjiang, and even the hotel king of the world, so it is understandable.

In a few years, New Era Group will also need to acquire hotel assets, provided that the company's cash flow is too high.

I talked about some things with the two, and it was the first gathering of friends at the beginning of the year, and the three of them were considered an alliance and could work together.

Local consortia still need to form alliances, not to mention foreign consortia entering Hong Kong.

Xiangjiang is a highly monopolistic place, and outsiders who want to invest in it have to rely on local consortia.

The rise of the emerging chaebol must also pay a visit to the fellow villagers and Bole.

Don't look at those Nanyang consortiums with huge capital entering Hong Kong, in fact, they can only linger in second-tier real estate companies, such as Kerry Properties (Guo Huonian) and Sino Property (Huang Tingfang), these two are the best Nanyang consortiums, and they still can't squeeze into the top ten real estate companies.

For example, Lippo (Lee Boon Ching family, Indonesia), Hong Leong (Kwok Ling Chan family, Malaysia), First Taiping (Lim Siu Leung, Indonesia), Baoguang Industrial (Wong Zi Ming family, Thailand).

Due to the appearance of Lin Zuhui, the rich assets of Lippo's ACN Center and Hong Leong's Overseas Trust Bank were all snatched by him. They don't have much representation in Xiangjiang.

New Era Group suddenly announced two news, and a 12-level typhoon blew in Xiangjiang.

The first is the issuance of HK$5 billion convertible bonds, which have been subscribed by major shareholders for HK$2.5 billion.

The second is that its subsidiary, Chinese Estates, will set up a private equity fund to invest exclusively in overseas real estate activities.

Both of these messages are incredible:

The first news is that New Era Group's issuance of bonds in Hong Kong will be faced with Hong Kong investors; Other companies issue convertible bonds, generally for foreign countries, such as US dollar bonds, samurai bonds (Japan), etc., because Xiangjiang is too small and fears that the issuance will not be successful. Every time New Era Group issues bonds, it issues Hong Kong dollar bonds in Hong Kong, which shows Mr. Lin Zuhui's self-confidence.

The second piece of news is that there is no dedicated 'real estate fund' in Hong Kong, which is the first time, and most importantly, this is still a 'real estate fund' invested overseas.

Of course, with Lin Zuhui's credibility and reputation, the responders were immediately cloudy. In the eyes of Hong Kong investors, it must be very profitable to follow Lin Zuhui, who enjoys 'turning stones into gold'.

The Regent Hotel is holding a jewelry auction of a certain brand.

Many well-known international jewelry brands regularly hold jewelry auctions in some important cities around the world, and the jewelry auctioned is the top jewelry that is difficult to sell in stores.

Xiangjiang is undoubtedly the world's top 'rich' city, whether it is jewelry brands or luxury brands, it is regarded as Asia's money-making powerhouse.

Lin Zixia and Shi Nansheng came to the scene and immediately attracted the attention and greetings of many people.

Both of them are celebrities in Xiangjiang, Lin Zixia is a representative of the showbiz's 'success', although the relationship history has been stirred up in recent years, but after all, the object is Lin Zuhui, but no one looks down on her.

Who is Lin Zuhui, that is the founder of a world-class family that surpasses the four major families in Xiangjiang, and he is only 28 years old this year, and he has become the richest man in China, and he is more likely to become the richest man in the world. Even if you have money, the important thing is to be handsome and talented, which will inevitably become the dream object of thousands of young girls and young women.

After sitting down, Shi Nansheng smiled and quipped: "You are so majestic, Mrs. boss!" ”

Lin Zixia looked at Shi Nansheng with a heroic look, Shi Nansheng, who is also a woman, couldn't help but sigh, there are thousands of beauties, but there is only one Lin Zixia, no wonder such a legendary man, he doesn't think Qingxia is 10 years older than him, and he has to come to a golden house to hide Jiao.

"It's too talkative, how bad it is for others to hear! In his words, I'm just his confidante! ”

"What do you know?"

"He understands everything, so naturally he can talk about anything."

"Tut, I admit this sentence, our boss understands everything, otherwise how can there be the current ATV!"

As an executive of ATV, how can you not know that today of ATV, Lin Zuhui is planning the outline. Otherwise, no matter how powerful Zhou Liang Shuyi is, it would be good to be able to open with Wireless Five-Five, and how to become a world-class TV station.

Lin Zixia is also very happy for her friend to work at ATV, after all, it is a high salary, and the important thing is connections.

The auction began shortly.

At the beginning, there may be some people who didn't pay attention to Lin Zixia and thought that she could have a few dollars.

However, Lin Zixia is no longer what it used to be, and the annual rent collection is tens of millions, not to mention the more than 20 million issued by the family, and the funds are very abundant.

Soon, Lin Zixia took a fancy to a 100-carat blue diamond, if she might have been worried about it being too expensive before, now she doesn't have much hesitation. What's more, her man said that diamonds will also appreciate in value, and the potential is very good, of course, lower than jade.

She calmly raised the card, which made the auctioneers surprise for a while, how much money did Lin Zuhui give to these women, and the diamond ring of 1 million US dollars was not soft at all.

In the end, Lin Zixia got her wish and won the 100-carat blue diamond for $1.36 million, which was instantly recorded by the media.

Shi Nansheng sighed: "Oh my God, you are crazy, tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars!" ”

Lin Zixia said excitedly: "I don't know why, I didn't want to spend it so expensive, but I think Ah Hui must agree with me to take it." ”

Shi Nansheng was speechless!

Shouson Hill Villa.

Lin Zuhui's car drove into the front yard, and soon saw Lin Zixia walking out of the gate with his son in his arms, and he couldn't help but smile. Treasured Lin Zixia, he had always felt that it was a very necessary thing.

"Ah Hui, I made a mistake!" Lin Zixia hugged her son and pretended to be pitiful and said.

Lin Zuhui came to tell him that he had made a mistake, which made him not care at all, unless she was a mistake of principle, that is, she dared to hook up with other men.

"What's the matter?" Lin Zuhui took the child, put one hand on Lin Zixia's waist, and walked towards the villa.

Lin Zixia immediately said: "I participated in an auction and saw a big blue diamond, and I couldn't help but spend more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars!" ”

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Then you have to show me, I will check for you, is it worth it!" ”

Lin Zixia immediately said excitedly: "Don't you blame me for spending money indiscriminately?" ”

He said a wise saying, which made Lin Zixia admire!

"Rich people spend money, that's not called spending, that's called investment. If you don't have money, that's what you call real spending! ”

The implication is that wealthy people spend money on diamonds, jade, wine, and even luxury goods, which can be considered as investments because they will appreciate in value. The same goes for luxury goods, not to say how much they appreciate, but at least they retain their value.

This also becomes: the rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting less and less.

"I love you to death, dear husband!" Lin Zixia put her mind at ease, kissed Lin Zuhui happily, and then took Lin Zuhui to watch.

Handing the child to the babysitter, the two of them walked towards the underground treasure room.

This villa is almost the best villa in Shouson Mountain, much better than Li Chaoren's, and the current value should be more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

Therefore, just because Lin Zixia lives in Shouchen Mountain, the upper circle of the Xiangjiang River knows that Lin Zuhui's lover is more noble than them.

Come to the underground-protected treasure room, which houses a lot of treasures, and there will be more in the future.

Seeing the blue diamond auctioned by Lin Zixia, Lin Zuhui took a closer look at it and commented: "Very beautiful, suitable for you to attend important occasions." ”

"What about the appreciation?"

"It's very big, and in another 20 years, it will be worth more than 100 million, which is not less than the room for real estate appreciation."

Lin Zixia suddenly threw herself into Lin Zuhui's arms excitedly, and said happily: "I thought it was expensive!" You don't know, I wasn't going to auction it at the time, but I always felt like if I was around, I would have asked me to buy it. So, I bought it! ”

When Lin Zuhui heard this, he lost his mind slightly, he seemed to remember that in his previous life, Lin Zixia did say in an interview that she saw a 100-carat blue diamond before she got married and cost more than 1 million US dollars, and at an auction 20 years later, she didn't expect it to cost 190 million Hong Kong dollars. A reporter asked, will the old dog buy it for you? Lin Zixia avoided the topic with a smile, obviously the price was too high.

In this way, this woman is a blessing in this life!

"What are you thinking?" Lin Zixia raised her head and said with a smile that had not faded.

Lin Zuhui said: "I'm wondering, should we be in your treasure room, romantic and romantic!" ”

"I hate it, I haven't eaten yet, and I want to do bad things!"

Looking at Lin Zixia, who is full of lady, is not only ladylike, but also has a heroic spirit, which is just right. As long as she doesn't have short hair, Lin Zuhui absolutely loves this temperament.

In the end, Lin Zuhui braked in time and exited the treasure room with Lin Zixia in his arms.

"Since it is a creation of people, it is naturally more formal, after eating, we will have a good time!"

"I hate it, I always talk hooligans!"

"It's called boudoir fun!"

"It's up to you!"

After some flirting, the two returned to the restaurant for dinner.

Eating is serious, this is to wait for a better experience.

10 p.m.

Lin Zuhui was lying on the bed watching TV, but he was looking forward to what kind of surprise Lin Zixia would give him, he had played with ancient costumes and everything, hoping that she could break through.

Suddenly, Lin Zuhui was amazed.

I saw that Lin Zixia defeated a very girl, quite a kind of age in her twenties, of course, if you don't take it seriously!

"Don't laugh at me! You said you also liked me in the seventies, so I'll dress you up and take a look! Lin Zixia said worriedly.

Lin Zuhui immediately stepped forward, pulled her in front of him, and said: "Of course you won't laugh, you look like the number one beauty in Taiwan in that era now." ”

immediately made the beauty happy, and then she turned her body, wearing a pink skirt, coupled with her excited mood, Lin Zuhui had an illusion - if she traveled through the seventies, she must go to Taiwan Island to snatch her.

Maybe after he dies of old age, he will travel through the seventies again.
