Chapter 553 [You Underestimate Me Too Much]

The news of Lin Zhichao's donation of 800 million Hong Kong dollars to the mainland has been reported by Hong Kong media. This is no longer in the category of 'buying government insurance', but real charity.

Reminiscent of Lin Zhichao's charity activities in Hong Kong in the early years, especially when he helped Oxfam Hong Kong establish and establish himself in the early years, we know that Lin Zhichao has always been like this.

Like other billionaires' donations in the mainland, most of them are considered by the media to be buying government insurance, that is, to preserve Hong Kong's assets. The media also believes that Hong Kong tycoons have close contacts with the mainland, but few of them really invest in the mainland (like Hopewell Real Estate), so it is more likely to buy government insurance.

Lin Zhichao is indeed different, although his investment in the mainland does not have real estate, but it involves manufacturing, science and technology, etc., it can be said that he is really not worried.

Of course, no matter how good things are, there will always be people who will pick on them.

Some media have pointed out that the Lin Zhichao family has made a lot of money in Hong Kong, but the charity fund mainly flows to the mainland.

Of course, this kind of voice will not become the mainstream, and Hong Kong's feelings for the mainland are still relatively deep at this time.

It's spring again (1991).

Lin Zhichao attended the annual financial report meeting of Cheung Kong Group, and the following were crowded reporters, who were all looking forward to the business status of Cheung Kong Group in the past year (1990).

Prior to this, Hutchison Whampoa and HK Electric, which are subsidiaries of Cheung Kong, have announced their results, shocking Hong Kong and Kowloon with their performance of 4.5 billion and 3.2 billion Hong Kong dollars respectively. As the parent company, Cheung Kong Group has naturally attracted more attention.

Lin Zhichao looked at the cameras and reporters in the audience, and his mood was very calm, the Cheung Kong Group led by him has been stabilizing HSBC in terms of market value, which is what makes people feel powerful.

Cheung Kong Group ranked first in Hong Kong in the field of real estate development (residential); In terms of rent-collecting properties, it has a large number of rent-collecting properties such as Yangtze River Plaza (5 million square feet), Exchange Square (2 million square feet), Raffles City (Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan), Cheung Kong Group Center, Hilton Hotel (Tsim Sha Sha Tsui East), Tsim Sha Tsui Center (Tsim Sha Tsui East), Tylfull Plaza (Miramar Hotel Old Wing, Singapore), Miramar Hotel, etc., as well as huge assets overseas.

"Last year (1990), Cheung Kong Group's normal profit was 5.2 billion Hong Kong dollars, another gratifying increase; At the same time, Cheung Kong Group has a non-recurring profit, which is an investment from the overseas real estate market, which is 7.8 billion. Therefore, Cheung Kong Group's net profit in the past year was 13 billion Hong Kong dollars. ”

As soon as the words fell, the scene exploded!

If it weren't for the question session, I'm afraid everyone would have to scramble to ask for an understanding.

The increase in normal profit by about 1 billion yuan is due to the fact that the real estate rose by one or two percent last year (the unit price of Taikoo Shing and Whampoa Garden has been more than 2,000 per square foot), and the rent of Cheung Kong Group has increased significantly.

This abnormal profit, which has been about 8 billion Hong Kong dollars for two consecutive years, may obviously be the return on real estate investment in the Japanese market.

Then, Lin Zhichao said: "In view of the excellent performance, the dividend per share of Cheung Kong Group this year is 1.1 Hong Kong dollars, involving 1.751 billion Hong Kong dollars, and 1 bonus share for every 5 shares."

A heat wave broke out at the scene.

Sun Hung Kai, Hong Kong's second-largest real estate company, has just announced a profit of 2.45 billion Hong Kong dollars last year, which is not even half of the Cheung Kong Group. Sun Hung Kai also has a number of rental properties, but mainly in shopping malls in new towns.

Of course, Cheung Kong Group's profits also include retail catering (7-11 convenience, Café de Coral catering group), beverage and food, infrastructure engineering, construction engineering, etc., and it is a comprehensive development group.

After a while, it was finally time to ask questions.

Reporter: "Mr. Hayashi, is the overseas profit of Cheung Kong Group classified as non-recurring profit, is it the proceeds from the sale in the Japanese real estate market?" ”

Lin Zhichao: "It's mainly earned by the Japanese market!" ”

Reporter: "Is it because you are not optimistic about the follow-up of the Japanese market, so you sold the property assets over there?" ”

Lin Zhichao: "The main reason is that the price has risen too high, and we have arbitraged and exited, so we have disposed of some buildings and commercial land, and only the business of Raffles City has been retained. ”

Reporter: "Is the main credit for such a shocking performance of Cheung Kong Group?" ”

Lin Zhichao: "No, it's the credit of me and my colleagues!" ”

Reporter: "The dividend of Cheung Kong Group is 1.751 billion Hong Kong dollars, setting a new record. Is it because you need money to do charity? ”

There was laughter at the scene!

Of course, this laugh is well-intentioned.

Lin Zhichao also said humorously: "You underestimate me too much!" ”

"Haha"

There was laughter at the scene!

The reporters surrounded Lin Zhichao for an 'exclusive interview', which made Lin Zhichao's 'shift' actually very problematic, and of course it was only 'half-shift'.

If he doesn't attend the press conference, everyone's goal will naturally shift to Lin Ruihuan. However, Lin Zhichao has not really retired after all, so he will still attend the press conference occasionally, which can be regarded as maintaining the stability of the company.

Following.

The news of Cheung Kong with a profit of 20 billion yuan was disseminated in major media and became the biggest topic in Hong Kong for a while.

At the same time, the market value of Cheung Kong Group exceeded 90 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is far ahead.

Of course, what makes people talk about it is that when the reporter jokes that he needs money for charity, Lin Zhichao's humorous answer.

Hong Kong's property market is gaining momentum, especially in large-scale well-equipped private housing estates, including Whampoa Garden, Taikoo Shing, Telford Garden, Wah Shun Garden, etc. Taikoo Shing and Whampoa Gardens have risen from HK$2,300 per square foot to HK$3,300 in just one month, an alarming increase.

Cheung Kong Group Center.

Lin Ruihuan came to Lin Zhichao's office and reported: "Father, the police have dispersed the crowd near the Chinese Walk!" ”

Lin Zhichao nodded with satisfaction, it turned out that the market suddenly rumored that Cheung Kong Group would launch the 'Huijing Garden' on the Lantian subway station within a few days, and then a large number of citizens went to the sales office of the Chinese Bank to queue up. There were more and more people, and Lin Zhichao was also worried that something would go wrong, so he asked Cheung Kong Group to put up a notice to persuade the citizens to leave, but who knew that the citizens would not pay attention to it at all, and it was not until the police dispersed that it was successful.

A few years ago, there was a big conflict and people died in order to queue up to buy a house.

Therefore, there are some things that you still need to pay attention to to avoid causing too much impact.

"When are you going to launch Sceneway Garden?" He said. He doesn't really care much about the little things, but he does pay attention to the details - like the trouble that might be brewing this time.

Lin Ruihuan said: "On the 28th of this month (3), a total of 750 small and medium-sized residential units were launched, with a unit price of HK$2,460 per square foot. ”

Lin Zhichao said: "Well, this number is quite large, and it is not easy to cause too much crowding. ”

Among the five estates planned by Lam Chi Chi Chiu:

Laguna City (Cha Kwo Ling) was sold once last year at a price of HK$1,800 per square foot. Of course, out of the 4,100 residential units in Laguna City, only 650 have been sold.

Sceneway Garden has only sold the first wave of 750 residential units this month, and the unit price has risen to HK$2,400 per square foot.

And next.

The first batch of Jiahu Villa in Tin Shui Wai will be sold in the second half of this year, and Lin Zhichao's heart price is around 1,800 Hong Kong dollars, which has exceeded the average price of the bet with China Resources.

Harbour Plaza in Ap Lei Chau and large housing estates in Tseung Kwan O were put on sale in 1993.

There is also a large housing estate in partnership with CLP, which has also started to sell this year.

This year, Cheung Kong's profit is expected to be as high as 7 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is expected to be a big growth.

Lin Ruihuan continued to report: "Dad, we have exchanged all the convertible bonds of Hopewell Real Estate into ordinary shares. ”

"Well, the potential of Hopewell Real Estate is not low, and I am also very optimistic about the infrastructure projects they have invested in in the mainland."

In recent years, Cheung Kong Group has purchased a large number of preferred shares, convertible bonds, ordinary shares, etc. of listed and unlisted enterprises in Hong Kong, which is actually an investment style with too much capital. This kind of investment style does not need to do it yourself, and you can make money as well.

For example, Cheung Kong Group invested HK$500 million in convertible bonds in Hopewell Real Estate in 1989, which are now converted into ordinary shares of Hopewell Real Estate (with an agreed price) after maturity; Hopewell Property has invested in many infrastructure projects in the mainland, and it is expected that the harvest period will reach in two or three years.

With such investments, Cheung Kong Group has invested in more than 30 enterprises, involving a total amount of up to 4 billion Hong Kong dollars; It is also continuing to look for suitable targets, and is expected to invest another 4 billion Hong Kong dollars.

This will not only make money, but also show the leadership of Cheung Kong Group.

In the morning, Lin Zhichao woke up from his sleep and looked at the two young octopuses lying on his stomach, and couldn't help but feel good.

It's a feeling of conquest, Guan Jiahui is 29 years old, Li Jiaxin is 21 years old, and Lin Zhichao himself is 63 years old; This age gap is the standard for successful people.

What's more, what happened last night, everyone is very satisfied.

"Brother Chao, aren't you already retired, why do you still rush to the company early every day!" Guan Jiahui said lazily.

A few strands of green silk, fluffy eyes, and a sense of satisfaction at the corners of the mouth, looking very beautiful.

Before Lin Zhichao could speak, Li Jiaxin on the side said: "Brother Chao is not retired, but semi-retired, you don't even understand this!" ”

After speaking, the corners of his mouth showed a smug expression.

Li Jiaxin is the kind of high-end beauty, the mixed-race body has three-dimensional facial features, coupled with a pure appearance, it is a beauty that Hong Kong tycoons love very much.

Seeing the two women arguing, Lin Zhichao did not speak immediately, but watched the battle with interest. Although it was a bickering, the two girls carried guns together last night, so it would not affect the relationship between the two women.

"Little girl, can you still have me to understand?"

"You'll understand when you're older, you're so stupid."

Good guys, the two girls quickly evolved into 'personal attacks', and Lin Zhichao immediately called a halt.

"Okay, what's so noisy about this, you didn't make enough noise last night!"

The two women suddenly became shy, and then stroked their palms on Lin Zhichao's chest at the same time, feeling the man's still young body, as if they had found a treasure.

"I hate it, Brother Chao!"

"It's not like you made us like that!"

On the young bodies of the two women, Lin Zhichao got a good experience, and then he got up, and the two women dressed him regardless of the keto body dew.

"I'm semi-retired! Leave the work to them, and I'll give you advice and make sure that the family business, and investment companies like yours, continue to grow. Got it? ”

"Understood!"

The two girls responded happily!

Lin Zhichao guided their investment company and completed many investments, which made them very satisfied.

For example, Kwan Ka Wai, who owns investments in shops, office buildings, luxury homes, and high-end residences in Hong Kong, and also holds Hong Kong stocks; At the same time, Kwan also holds a number of investments in US stocks, properties in the United States and Canada, with total assets of more than HK$2 billion.

Recently, the real estate has risen hugely, and they are also very happy, and they do not hesitate to agree to any request from Lin Zhichao.

While the two women were dressing him, Lin Zhichao admired the ketones of the two, under his development, these women were much better than the figures in their previous lives, and their temperament and appearance were greatly improved, and they couldn't help but sigh that he was really a 'mentor and friend'.

Li Jiaxin's figure at this time is not lost to Lin Chiling from Taiwan Island at all, of course, her face is more beautiful and her temperament is more noble. With such a good figure, Lin Zhichao had been on the top for a long time last night.

Guan Jiahui belongs to that typical amorous style, she charmingly arranged Lin Zhichao's collar, and asked curiously: "Brother Chao, will you have a younger girl in the future, much younger than Jiaxin?" ”

Li Jiaxin suddenly became a little nervous, and looked at Lin Zhichao with concern.

Judging from this performance, these women are all 'cleaned up' and obedient, and they have no binding force on Lin Zhichao.

Lin Zhichao said decisively: "No. Anyway, I'm still getting older, it's important to take care of my body, I can't feed you anymore, do you dare to mess around! ”

Guan Jiahui smiled: "You won't catch orders!" Besides, where do you look like you're in poor health, I'm afraid that young people in their twenties and thirties outside are not as good as you! ”

Li Jiaxin immediately said: "Anyway, we are still young, of course Brother Chao must take care of his body. I should be able to get pregnant this time, right? ”

Recently, Li Jiaxin was preparing to conceive a child.

Lin Zhichao said with a smile; "Don't worry, you're all there is!"

It is impossible for him to find a girlfriend in Hong Kong now, after all, it is very troublesome to be photographed. (End of chapter)
