442 Shocking returns on profits

7.8 is the same as the previous peak of 10, although it is the same when rounded, but when converted into an exchange rate, it is too different.

Some people, even mortgage their own real estate, or borrow loan sharks, just to exchange more dollars, before there are no dollars, they are worried about the collapse of the Hong Kong dollar, but after having the dollar, their hearts immediately look forward to it, because the Hong Kong dollar collapse they can make a big profit, and this can also prove how correct their original decision was.

This kind of thinking is like many people who scolded the high housing prices in later generations, and immediately hoped that the housing prices would triple after they desperately bought a house. It cannot be said that it is wrong, it can only be said that it is human instinct, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

But no matter what, this is also an investment or speculation of their own choice, and they naturally have to admit it if they lose, some people see that they have suffered serious losses, and they also ran to Hisense Bank to make trouble, which was naturally taken away by the guarding police, Huo Jianning had long thought that this kind of thing might happen, and invited the nearby police to patrol early.

When there is a problem with a currency, it will inevitably be like carrion attracting hyenas, attracting a large amount of international hot money, which has been shorting the Hong Kong dollar before, that is, borrowing when the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate is high, selling for US dollars, and then suppressing the Hong Kong dollar through selling or all kinds of messy news, if the Hong Kong dollar collapses, they can spend a small amount of US dollars to buy back the Hong Kong dollar and return it to the borrower, which is completely blood gain.

Of course, these hot money capital are operated overseas, otherwise they would not be able to exchange for dollars, and as a free currency, it is not difficult for the Wall Street group to short.

Nowadays, the Hong Kong government has set the basic exchange rate, but it does not mean that it is stable, and those overseas capital that has made heavy bets urgently need to continue to suppress the Hong Kong dollar, as long as the Hong Kong government can no longer hold on, then they will still make money.

However, these people also know that they can't fight the Hong Kong government with British support alone, not because Wall Street can't do it, but because they are only a small part of it.

As a result, these capitals began to publicize and guide immigrants in Hong Kong on a large scale, and guide a large number of people in Hong Kong to exchange dollars in the hands of the Hong Kong government.

However, Chen Zhiwen doesn't care about this matter, according to the original historical development, the Hong Kong government obviously won, and it doesn't need his help, and this kind of thing has nothing to do with him.

What I need to do now is to sort out the huge gains in this month or so.

Although Chen Zhiwen is also in charge of this matter personally, because of the urgency of time, whether it is Hisense or Hutchison, they are trying to complete the transaction with all their might, often staying up all night to do things, and some big things are also Chen Zhiwen's decision, but the small aspects are all operated in accordance with the rules set before.

Although it is a small transaction, the number is very large, and the total amount is quite large, and now that the busiest period has passed, it is natural to take some time to sort it out.

In the headquarters building of Hisense Bank, a group of people are counting all kinds of information in the conference room, where there are calculators and computers, as well as unlimited supplies of coffee and snacks, to ensure the physical fitness of these actuaria.

Although they worked overtime continuously, everyone was very happy, because their bonus income during this period was almost catching up with the net income of the previous half year.

On the upper floor of them, Zhou Jiayang, Huo Jianning, and Chen Zhiwen were drinking coffee and tea while holding a small meeting.

Zhou Jiayang said with a smile: "Chen Sheng, the Hong Kong government has reached an agreement with us, and the 17 plots of land that they previously failed to auction were sold to us at a price of 250 million US dollars, without any restrictions, both commercial and residential land, here is the list." ”

"$250 million? That's a lot. Chen Zhiwen nodded and said, although it sounds like a high amount, but since the real estate crisis last year, the Hong Kong government's land ranking has been auctioned off a lot, and the land income in the first half of 1983 was less than 300 million Hong Kong dollars, while in the previous 81 years, the income was 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. In addition, in order to stimulate real estate, the number of land plots launched this year and even the quality are much higher than in previous years.

"If you put it in 81 years, the value of these lands will not be 4 billion to 5 billion yuan." Zhou Jiayang said with a smile.

"The current $250 million is almost equal to $2 billion, so let's say we have won these plots at half price." Chen Zhiwen said.

"It's pretty much the same, but the most important thing is that there are no additional requirements, and if this is clearly explained in the auction, the transaction price of this land can increase by at least 30%." Zhou Jiayang said that here in Hong Kong, there are still many people who will sell land at a high price to buy, if there is no such restriction, then this land can be used as a reserve after buying, which is the favorite of many people, but there is rarely such a situation in Hong Kong government auctions, and there is also a marginal garbage position.

"Okay, since we have been talking for so long, the price is also in half, then trade directly, although the Hong Kong government now has the support of British foreign exchange behind it, but the pressure is still very great, after all, the British foreign exchange can not help Hong Kong unlimitedly, they themselves have to use, after signing the contract, quickly handover, and then the funds will be given to the Hong Kong government." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

He is a man who promises a thousand gold, what kind of transaction was set at the beginning, the other party abides by it, then he will abide by it, and the Hong Kong government's protection of the Hong Kong dollar is also very important to his industry, although he knows that the Hong Kong dollar will not be a problem, but he still needs to give the Hong Kong government confidence, hundreds of millions of dollars is the greatest confidence.

"Okay." Zhou Jiayang nodded and said: "In addition, we have also acquired many stocks of the top 100 companies in Hong Kong by market capitalization during this time, and here is also a list, Chen Sheng, please take a look." ”

"Cheung Kong's stock is already as high as 8%?" Chen Zhiwen said with a smile when he saw the name of the company with the highest share in the list.

Although history has changed, Li Jiacheng did not acquire Hutchison, but its own ability still exists, at most a little worse than the original history, but it will still be one of the strongest real estate players in Hong Kong, even if there is no transaction with Hutchison, a few years ago, Li Jiacheng also took the ship of HSBC and received a lot of investment, which is actually normal, even if HSBC is a "quasi-central bank", it also needs a large number of high-quality customers, shipping and real estate is the largest customer of Hong Kong banks, if the shipping industry is not good, it can only rely on real estate, After a little screening, Li Jiacheng is the best choice.

With the full support of HSBC, and Li Jiacheng also avoided the real estate crisis with his vision, although he did not play as much as Chen Zhiwen because he knew all kinds of accurate time points, but in the worse Hong Kong real estate industry, it is already very good.

"Yes, several shareholders of Cheung Kong also want to immigrate to Australia, so I bought them directly, plus the shares we acquired before, we now have 13.8 Cheung Kong shares." Zhou Jiayang said.

"Yes, continue to raise it to more than 16%, and then send someone to be a director." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said, he didn't think about acquiring Cheung Kong Industrial, becoming a director, it can be regarded as increasing the influence of Hutchison, according to the general trend, Cheung Kong will still develop into a giant company, and the future cooperation with Hutchison may not be less.

"Okay." Zhou Jiayang agreed, and said: "There are still some stocks of Chinese-funded companies in the back, and the British-funded words are just the Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson mentioned before." ”

"Okay, these prices are seven or eight discounts compared to before, which is still good." Chen Zhiwen glanced at the bunch of companies behind him and said.

In fact, many Chinese-funded companies are still confident in the future of Hong Kong, that is, any company has many shareholders, and one or two of them have different ideas, so they want to sell, which also gives Hutchison the opportunity to acquire, but except for Jardine Land, the others are also pure investments, and there will be no other ideas.

Some of the companies listed in Hong Kong today, especially some medium-sized companies or above, which are all killed from the sea of fire in the shopping mall, their bosses and teams are very capable, and they are very good choices to invest in them, and the return is very high, which is equivalent to indirectly obtaining profits from the Hong Kong real estate market.

Seeing that Zhou Jiayang finished his report, Huo Jianning on the side followed and said: "Chen Sheng, this is the data of Hisense Bank after exchanging foreign currency for Hong Kong dollars in the past month or so, please take a look." In US dollar terms, we exchanged a total of US$2.7 billion, and in Hong Kong dollar terms, we almost got about HK$28 billion. ”

"HK$28 billion? At the current exchange rate, that's about $3.6 billion? So in the second half of this game, we made $900 million? Chen Zhiwen did a quick mental arithmetic.

Of the $2.7 billion, $1.9 billion is from Hisense, and $800 million is from the United States.

If the profit is calculated in Hong Kong dollars, it was still 5.51 Hong Kong dollars when it was exchanged for US dollars, and when it was exchanged for US dollars, it cost about 10.4 billion Hong Kong dollars in total, and this piece almost made a net profit of nearly 9 billion Hong Kong dollars, plus 900 million US dollars in the United States, which was converted at an average price of 11 Hong Kong dollars, and almost made about 2.8 billion Hong Kong dollars. Considering the consumption in the middle and the interest on HSBC loans, it is no problem to make a net profit of HK$11 billion.

If Chen Zhiwen did not participate in this matter, his Hong Kong dollar property would have shrunk by about 30%, and after participating, he also earned 900 million US dollars in US dollar terms, and 11 billion Hong Kong dollars without considering the depreciation.

(Note: Because if you do nothing, the asset will depreciate, so here the Hong Kong dollar and the US dollar profit algorithm is different!) )

Coupled with the stocks of various high-quality real estate and high-quality companies that were acquired through US dollars at almost 5-7% discounts, in Hong Kong dollar terms, at least a net profit of more than 16 billion Hong Kong dollars.

And the most important of them, of course, is the various stocks and high-quality land acquired by Hutchison, even in today's economic crisis, it is unattainable, money may be able to buy a small part, but so many involved, it is almost impossible, and only in the process of the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate crisis, there will be such an opportunity.

When the real estate market recovers in 85 years, then the prices of these land properties and stocks will rise sharply, and it is not difficult to increase tenfold in the next ten years, and if you manage it well, 30 times may not be a problem.

In particular, Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson are the easiest way to officially enter the Central business district on their own.
