402 Bow your head
"Thank you, Mr. Li, the next step is that Oriental Group just wants to open up the Nanyang market, and it is naturally good to be able to do real estate business first."
Sin Chew's real estate market is similar to Hong Kong Island, both have port cities, less land and expensive buildings, and Sin Chew real estate started earlier than Hong Kong Island, ten years ago has entered the tide of price increases, but due to the independence turmoil in the past two years, property prices have been slightly cold, but at most three years will rise again.
Holding three pieces of land in his hands, even if he doesn't develop it, he can earn 10 million just by eating dividends.
Of course, it would be a bit short-sighted to really want to do land business in Sin Chau, and with the importance of the Strait of Malacca, whether it is aviation, waterway, finance, or container terminals, there is a lot to be done, but the aviation and cargo ship business is the basic market of the locals.
Unless Jiang Tianyang takes two more steps up and becomes a politician with real power, or makes another political deal with Boss Li in the future, the possibility of wanting to get the business of aviation and waterways is too low. How many wealthy families in the local area are staring at this piece of fat, and a foreigner wants to be able to share the account.
The container terminal is the main event, and Hong Kong Island is still in the hands of British-funded companies, and they want to take down the Singapore terminal company, unless they have the strength to cut off Malacca. The only opportunity is finance, but the financial risk is too high, and it is not as stable as operating on Hong Kong Island.
These require more than ten years of layout.
However, the shipping attributes brought by the Strait of Malacca have made Singapore a delivery center for international bulk commodity trading, such as grain, steel, non-ferrous metals, etc., which are traded in the futures market. In short, doing business in Singapore will not lose money around the word shipping.
So He Dingxian also cheekily begged after toasting: "Mr. Li, Oriental Group intends to create a bulk commodity delivery company to provide delivery services for bulk commodities in Xingang, I wonder if you can get a franchise license?" ”
Due to the huge volume of bulk commodities, the transportation and delivery processes are numerous, and the general shippers are not clear at all, the bulk commodity delivery service comes into being, often charging a handling fee, helping to get all the paperwork, loading the goods on the ship can go, and the shipowners are willing to pay for the hurry.
Similar intermediary service companies are widely available in various corporate industries, and are generally run by local snakes, and there are also companies in Singapore that specialize in related business, but they are not formalized. If you can get a franchise license and clean up the market with capital, you will soon be able to get involved in commodity trading. This business is not only highly profitable and less risky, but also can absorb data and comprehensively judge commodity prices, which is good for opening futures trading on Hong Kong Island in the future.
Li Guangyao thought for a moment when he heard this, glanced at He Dingxian, and agreed: "It just so happens that the government also intends to standardize the delivery process of bulk commodities, and needs an agency service company, and the bidding will be open at that time, and Mr. He can consider bidding." ”
He Dingxian was overjoyed in his heart and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for Mr. Li's support, Oriental Group will definitely be reasonable and compliant, and try its best to participate in the bidding." ”
"Work together for Sin Chew's economy."
Li Guangyao said with a smile.
"Cheers."
"Cheers."
In fact, since he opened his mouth to let the Oriental Group bid, then the project will definitely fall into the hands of the Eastern Group, but asking Li Guangyao to come up with a license has already used up the favor of the Eastern Group, and if he cannot increase investment in Singapore in the future to serve Li Guangyao's policies, then it will be difficult to get any more benefits.
Half an hour later, after the group finished eating, Li Guangyao personally sent the guests to the door of the official residence, instructed Wu Youdong to receive them, and returned to the official residence to continue working. He Dingxian actually didn't stay in the official residence for long, it was already the center of power in the whole of Singapore, and anyone who was not a bigwig in the first district had to avoid the edge.
He Tingxian also visited Malaysia Airlines, Singapore Terminal and other companies, of which Malaysia Airlines is a semi-British-owned, semi-state-owned company, behind which there is HSBC Holdings, and across Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore several states, each state has shares, the future Singapore Airlines is a spun off subsidiary of Malaysia Airlines.
At night.
He Dingxian, Jiang Tianyang, Jiang Tiansheng, and Wu Youdong dined together in the hotel again, but the atmosphere at night was much more free than at noon.
When the meal was almost over, Wu Youdong picked up his wine glass and suddenly said, "Mr. He, I have a friend who has heard that he has some festivals with you, can you give him a chance to come out and ask for his guilt?" ”
"Mr. Wu's friend, will I meet?" He Dingxian sat on the guest of honor, he was stunned at first, but immediately reacted to who it was, and said with a smile: "If it's true, Mr. Wu can invite him over." ”
"It's true."
Wu Youdong smiled bitterly: "As the secretary of the Action Front, I often have to help Mr. Li raise campaign funds and contact Chinese in the business community, and it is indispensable to deal with those people. ”
"To tell you the truth, that person is the boss of the Shaw Brothers, if Mr. He doesn't want to see him, I can help refuse."
With these words, it can be seen that Wu Youdong is indeed the money he received before, not the money he just collected, if he has just collected money, he must try his best to promote the meeting, and the buyer will see the effect. He Dingxian said heartily: "Mr. Wu is too polite, we are friends, even if we don't save your face, we have to save Mr. Li's face, after all, I will still do business in Sin Chew in the future."
"Okay."
"I'll call Mr. Shao here." Wu Youdong turned around and made a gesture, and the assistant who had been standing at the door immediately turned around and left, and in less than a moment, Shao Yifu appeared with a black suit and glasses. Seeing the various eyes on the table, Run Run Shaw adjusted his mentality, bowed and nodded, "Mr. He, Mr. Wu, Jiang Sheng." ”
"Mr. Shao, please be seated." Ho Ting-yin raised his hand and pointed to a chair, but after Run Run Shaw pulled the chair out, he did not sit down immediately, but said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ho, I am not familiar with doing business on Hong Kong Island, and I am very offended. ”
"Please forgive Mr. Ho."
Shao Yifu thought that he would pay the price of his second brother's life, and even if the last thing was over, he didn't expect that the Nanyang business was hit hard again, and the land of the three playgrounds was confiscated by the government, directly losing more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and it broke one of the legs of Shaw Brothers Enterprises to enter the real estate.
You must know that these three pieces of land were purchased at a low price during World War II, and now they have risen several times, even if the government returns the land money at the original price, the Shaw Brothers cannot afford to buy new land, and what scares him the most is that Ho Tingxian has already had influence on Singapore's government affairs.
If you can copy his land today, will you be able to copy the theater line tomorrow? Although this possibility is objectively extremely low, what businessmen care about most is risk, and the slightest risk will be infinitely magnified under the effect of funds.
For Run Run Shaw, Hong Kong Island is a new market, and Nanyang is his foundation, even the roots have been dug up, so what's the use of making good movies on Hong Kong Island? There is simply no market to make a profit, and the competition between the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce and the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce is like a joke.
Because, his original intention of establishing the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce was to seize the market.
He Dingxian replied with a smile: "Why did Mr. Shao say this? If you come to Hong Kong Island to do business, as long as it is right, reasonable and legal, it is free, just like I came to Singapore to do business, and you can't be offensive to each other. ”
"It's just normal business competition, and there is some friction in business."
Shao Yifu said with a wry smile: "Mr. He, everyone can make money together in the film market on Hong Kong Island, if the Oriental Group is interested, it is completely possible to come to Singapore to release movies, and the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line can be open to the Oriental Group." ”
After Shao Yifu got the news of the accident at the playground, he immediately rushed back to Nanyang to try to suspend the investigation plan of government affairs, but the investigation team was very resolute and had no room for maneuver.
After many investigations, I figured out the ins and outs, and knew that the home was stolen, so I had to turn to the relationship to seek peace, since it was a peace request, we must come up with interests, and the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line that opened Nanyang to the Eastern Group was one of the few bargaining chips.
It is also the most sincere and valuable bargaining chip.
"I have a cooperative cinema chain in Nanyang." He Dingxian held the wine glass and said in surprise: "Is there anything special about Shaw Brothers Cinemas?" It's a big deal that when you close down, I'll buy it again, businessman, you have to talk about the cost of doing things. ”
Shao Yifu's expression suddenly became very ugly, and Wu Youdong immediately stood up and said to Shao Yifu: "Mr. Shao, since Mr. He agreed to see you, he actually intends to give you a chance to apologize to Mr. He seriously." ”
"Yes, yes."
"He Sheng."
Shao Yifu bowed and bent down again, bowed his head and said: "The Shaw family did something wrong, and he shouldn't take the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce to fight against He Sheng, and the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce will be more cautious in its decision-making in the future." ”
He Dingxian picked up the towel, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said coldly: "More cautious? In the future, I will send a copy of the minutes of the meeting of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce Council to me on the same day, is there any problem? ”
Shao Yifu said: "No problem. ”
"Alright."
"Sit down and eat." He Dingxian said out loud, and Shao Yifu sat down on the chair, but He Dingxian immediately got up again and said with a smile: "Wu Sheng, Ayang, let's wash our feet together." ”
"Mr. Ho walks slowly."
Shao Yifu bounced up again.
Jiang Tianyang followed the big guy out, smiling and groaning, very scared, Jiang Tiansheng was a sven man, low-key and subtle, with a cigar in his hand, and glanced back at Shao Yifu when he went out: "Be sensible in the future." ”
He Dingxian is a person who doesn't like hypocrisy very much, and he doesn't eat if he is not in the mood to eat with the decrepit guy, as for the meeting minutes of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, in fact, he wants to secretly manipulate the decision-making of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce.
