Chapter 022 [Financial Place]

Lin Zhichao came to the 'Gold and Silver Exchange Centre' at 12 Maosha Street in Sheung Wan, intending to go in with Liao Baoshan to experience the development of Hong Kong's financial industry.

Twin Sands Street and Bonham East Street are both in Hong Kong Island Central, and these two streets are famous golden streets. In Bonham Street, there are 20 or 30 gold and silver shops, specializing in gold trading, foreign currency exchange, foreign exchange and other businesses.

When you come to the 'Gold and Silver Exchange', the building is not very conspicuous, but two tall, heavily armed British Indian policemen stand at the gate, which is particularly conspicuous.

"Brother Lin"

"Brother Liao"

Lin Zhichao and Liao Baoshan formed a convergence, after all, if Lin Zhichao came alone, he would need an invitation, because the 'Gold and Silver Trade Field' was not open to the public.

As for the relationship between the two, Lin Zhichao naturally will not have a heart-to-heart relationship with Liao Baoshan, and he will keep an eye on any friend who takes the initiative to come to the door; And if he takes the initiative to meet friends and elders, he is more comfortable intermingling.

These are only his personal opinions.

The Indian police operated fluent Cantonese and asked to show the admission post, but fortunately, Liao Baoshan was the boss of the 'Liao Chuangxing Yinhao' and was very familiar with the exchange, so Lin Zhichao was put in by the Indian police.

As soon as you enter the door, the noise of 'gold frying' in the hall is like a heat wave blowing from the desert.

"Let's go to the second floor and see the situation inside more intuitively!"

"Good"

After coming to the second floor, I snuggled up to the railing, and I had a clear view below.

Below, a 2,000-square-foot patio was filled with more than 100 gold traders in yellow uniforms, like Spanish bullfighters, roaming the halls, searching for their prey. And on the walls around the patio, there are dense telephones.

Liao Baoshan introduced: "Those calls can be kept reporting the gold price to the boss of the bank; At the same time, the boss of the gold bank can convey instructions to the buyers and sellers in the market through the telephone. ”

Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "In this way, the boss determines the order to buy and sell gold according to various factors outside the market, combined with the price of gold in the market." Wonderful! ”

Although Liao Baoshan did not say too much about the elements of gold speculation, Lin Zhichao was self-taught, in this gold and silver trading field, 'information' is the most critical, even the life of the boss of the gold and silver account, and the slightest negligence is a fatal threat.

As far as Lin Zhichao knows, Chen Bichen of Thailand's Bangkok Bank often comes to Hong Kong to speculate in gold, and he even has a set of state-of-the-art equipment -- Chen Bichen uses the shortwave station set up by the Teochew people in Hong Kong to connect to smuggling ships at sea, and then to the command center in Thailand. At the same time, because Chen Bichen is in charge of the channel for Southeast Asian expatriates to send money to relatives in the mainland, he often uses the three days that these funds stay in Hong Kong to speculate on a wave of gold.

Mu Ranjian.

A trader standing in the middle of the patio raised his right hand, but saw that several of his fingers were bent outwards and made a few gestures; Then a dozen traders immediately pounced on him and clung to him; He quickly patted each of the five traders on the shoulder, and the crowd quickly dispersed.

Liao Baoshan introduced: "Speculating gold in the trading hall is calculated in 100 taels as a unit, commonly known as 'one hand'. The finger is bent outward, which represents selling; If you bend your fingers inward, you buy. The price also relies on gesturing, and only the two mantissa numbers behind the price are played. The seller pats the buyer on the shoulder, and the deal is closed, and then both parties write down the amount of the deal in a notebook. The market is closed at noon and in the afternoon, and both sides go to the computing department of the trading field to register. It is only a registration, and the gold is not traded on the spot, but officially traded after three days. So during these three days, if you sell the gold in your hand to others at a high price, or inhale other people's gold at a low price, then you are making a profit. ”

Lin Zhichao's comprehension ability is very good, and he said: "Understood! It's a financial paradise. But will the people here pay their bills? ”

Liao Baoshan said decisively: "I generally don't dare, what I pay attention to here is the word 'letter', not to mention the supervision and statistics of people in the market, as well as the margin." ”

Then.

Liao Baoshan said with a smile: "If my brother wants to speculate in gold, he must either open a silver number or gold shop, and then apply for membership in the trading place, and he needs to pay a deposit. However, the members of the trading house are basically fixed, and those who are disqualified will have the opportunity to be replaced. Of course, if you want to speculate, you can also pay a small commission through other silver gold stores. ”

Lin Zhichao responded: "Thank you Brother Liao for your guidance, I will definitely try it if I have a chance in the future." But I'm a poor ghost now, I'm afraid it will make people laugh. ”

Liao Baoshan nodded and said: "For you, development is a very fast thing, and once you do that project, you can't make a lot of money." ”

Thinking of this, he actually had some pain in his flesh, and then thought to himself Lin Zhichao, you'd better lose it here.

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Thank you, brother, for admitting it!" However, my brother does not necessarily have to be a big project to do real estate, and if there are a few more small projects, he will still make a lot of money. ”

Liao Baoshan patted Lin Zhichao's shoulder and said generously: "Real estate is just a small fight, and Brother Ling plans to show his skills here." ”

"Then congratulations in advance to my brother for killing all sides and making a lot of money!"

"Haha, take your good words."

Liao Baoshan brought Lin Zhichao to the gold and silver field, although he did not have good intentions, but at least he was dating Lin Zhichao.

So in addition to not fully believing in Liao Baoshan, Lin Zhichao really made friends with him.

Of course, Lin Zhichao also believes that there is no one who can deceive him.

In essence, Lin Zhichao has kept one hand in any business, and as long as he survives, he can quickly turn over.

Now, he has two more hands, one for real estate (worth millions) and the other for gold (worth about 600,000). Since January, Lin Zhichao's net worth has more than doubled, and it has only been five months.

Business wizards!

........

Lin Zhichao, who returned to the company, did not fluctuate in his mood, and he knew that the best time to speculate in gold was 1948.

Similarly, he will not intervene in gold speculation until he has the strength. If he has the strength, it is a big out, a big in, a big kill.

At present, Lin Zhichao's real estate business is doing very well, and a total of about 280,000 Hong Kong dollars (16 small yellow croakers) have been invested; By next year, the three real estate projects currently invested will reach a net asset of 1.1 million Hong Kong dollars, and the asset value will rise to four times.

Therefore, he must continue to do a good job in the real estate business in hand and lay out the zipper industry.

He has analyzed the market, and the current zipper market in Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and RB is either monopolized by Europe and the United States (high price), or Asian handmade products (poor quality).

If he is the first to introduce automatic zipper machines, then he will be able to quickly open the market in these three markets with cheap and high quality, and then sell them to Europe and the United States.

As for the prominence of RB's zipper industry, Lin Zhichao doesn't care, and the competition between the two sides has its own advantages. Lin Zhichao can also set up an improvement machine group, develop automatic punches, and then go to the German machinery factory to cooperate, which may not be lost to the RB zipper industry. On the contrary, Hong Kong's cheap labor, cheap materials (low tax), convenient export, etc., are all advantages.

"Boss, I found a factory in Xihuan, with more than 2,800 square feet, an annual rent of 6,600 Hong Kong dollars, and a top fee of 2,000." Li Gaofu walked into his office and reported.

When Lin Zhichao heard this, he couldn't help but say, "So expensive? ”

Li Gaofu said: "Now the factory buildings in Hong Kong are not in demand, and many mainland factory owners come to Hong Kong to set up branches, so the owners sit on the ground and raise prices, which is very spirited. ”

Lin Zhichao's mind turned around, and then said: "Well, let's go and have a look tomorrow morning, and if it's suitable, we can rent it." There are also factories for rent in these places, which is a clear indication that the peak season has not yet arrived. It is expected that more factories will be relocated to Hong Kong or branch factories will be opened next year. So if you recruit zipper journeymen, it should be enough to recruit them in Hong Kong, or call the people of Modu as intermediaries, go to the Modu to recruit, and give a capitation intermediary fee. After all, you are a native of Guangdong Province, and others will not trust you if you go. Almost 20 skilled technicians are enough. ”

"Okay, I see!"

Li Gaofu was even happier when he saw Lin Zhichao arranging things for him, which meant that he was heavily responsible.

After Li Gaofu left, Lin Zhichao called Zhou Fuzhao from the finance department and Hu Zhaoxu from the marketing department.

"I will inject another 500,000 Hong Kong dollars into Cheung Kong Real Estate, and this fund will be used to continue to carry out new real estate projects, and you will be financially prepared, as well as search for land and old buildings."

The two were immediately very surprised, where did their boss get 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, it was incredible.

"Okay," the two said excitedly after being surprised.

Cheung Kong Real Estate has become a leader in Hong Kong's real estate, and they are naturally on the rise.
