Chapter 2114 Another piece of reclaimed land
Hundreds of years ago, the land of Aomen was actually very small, just a big street.
By the 1980s, they had expanded the area of Aomen by one third through various land reclamation.
But this is not the end. Yin Jun knew that in the future, the area of the Aomen area will continue to be larger by reclamation, even larger than that of the old city.
The future Venetian Hotels, these well-known five-star casino hotels, are located in the new area.
Xiangjiang is also constantly reclaiming land, but most of it surrounds the Bay of Victoria.
Because this piece of land is the Feng Shui treasure land of Xiangjiang, on one side are Tsim Sha Tsui and Hongkan on the Kowloon, and on the other side are the Sheung Wan and Central on the other side. Basically, the most prosperous area of Xiangjiang is here.
It is like the Huangpu River in Shanghai, with the Wanguo Buildings on one side and the Lujiazui Financial District on the other side.
In the 1920s and 1950s, Xiangjiang began land reclamation projects, but the scale was not as large-scale land reclamation projects carried out in Tsingdong from the late 1960s to the early 1970s.
That time they reclaimed land for a total of 17.5 hectares, all of which were sold at auction.
The one who bought the most was Xinhe Real Estate, which belongs to the Huang family in Singapore. Because they bought half of the land, they were later called the "Tsing Dong Land King".
Seeing this situation, the father and son of the Huang family simply changed Xinhe Real Estate to Tsingdong Real Estate, demonstrating their status.
In the mid-1970s, the construction of the "Shatin New Town" began.
This site belongs to Li Zhaoji, of Henderson Land. He leveled two hills in one go, reclaimed 14 land, with an area of more than 6 million square feet in total, and then made a promise to return 70% of the area to the main palace to develop public housing and various infrastructure.
In the end, Henderson Land only took 30% of the land that was reclaimed and built, and the final one was Shatin No. 1, which is the area where the Yakan Department Store is located today.
Their behavior made all real estate merchants curse, saying that Li Zhaoji was simply breaking the rules and 50% was enough to suffer a loss. Now it only costs 30%, how can you make money?
But no matter how others complain, Li Zhaoji in his previous life gradually became a real estate tycoon based on this territory.
However, in his previous life, he survived the painful stock market crash and real estate plunge in 1982-84. In this life, Yin Jun bought enough stocks in advance, which made him helplessly accept the fact that Yin Jun of his company had a stake.
The next 1980s was Zheng Yutong's New World Development, which was a treasure land of the New Convention and Exhibition Center. This new Convention and Exhibition Center territory brought an overall profit of more than 60 billion Hong Kong dollars to the New World Development.
Unfortunately, this territory now belongs to Yin Jun’s Qilin Group.
The last land reclamation before the return was built in the 1990s, which was built in Hongjian, with a total of more than seven or eight hectares.
This time, Sun Hung Kai Properties and Henderson Land Development formed a consortium together, spending nearly HK$5 billion to obtain the most fertile piece of land in it.
...
Yin Jun actually only remembers the above situations: Xin Exhibition Center and Hongjian Reclamation Project, because they both happened in the 1980s and 1990s.
Fortunately, Yin Jun did not miss the first one, and he would not miss the second one's red survey and land reclamation project.
In fact, during the Spring Festival recently, Li Zhaoji had found Yin Jun and asked him about his opinions on this land reclamation plan.
Although the Red Survey Reclamation Project was only implemented in the early 1990s, in fact, according to the rules of Xiangjiang, it should have been decided at about 1988.
Now it is not far from 1988 years, so it is not surprising that Lee Zhaoji has this idea.
Real estate companies in Xiangjiang, especially those of Chinese, like to form teams to fight monsters when encountering huge projects.
Although you will earn less in this way, your ability to resist risks will be greatly increased.
For example, in the bidding for 9 subway overhead properties on the Hong Kong Island Line in 1982, Hang Lung Group joined forces with more than a dozen companies to attack, and then took it down.
When they regretted that they wanted to cancel the subscription, if the 400 million Hong Kong dollars they paid were paid, it would definitely be heartbreaking if one company paid, but if more than a dozen companies were divided by shares, it would naturally not be too damaging.
"We are planning to form a new consortium this time." Li Zhaoji said to Yin Jun: "Kirin Real Estate, Henderson Land and Sun Hung Kai Properties are sure to participate. I think the financial resources of our three companies are enough to support them."
"Brother Ji, how big is the land you want to make?" Yin Jun asked.
"Like the last time in Sha Tin First City, I'm going to have a big game." Lee Zhaoji said: "The main palace means to expand a little to reclaim the land, the scale is about 8 million square feet. But as the last reclaiming land for the Hongjian plot, I think I can be more bold. I'm going to propose a plan of 15 million square feet."
Yin Jun thought about it and said in surprise: "About 21 hectares? Is it so big?"
You should know that the largest land reclamation in Xiangjiang so far is 17.5 hectares in the Tsim Dong area, which was more than a decade ago.
The first city in Shatin is only a little over 8 hectares.
If we look at a scale of 21 hectares, the land reclamation area of Xiangjiang should break the record.
"The terrain of Hongjian is quite complex, and it is the only one that can reclaim land. It is as big as it can." Li Zhaoji smiled and said, "What's more, asking for a price all over the place and paying it back. We proposed 15 million square feet, which may not be the case for the Hong Kong government. The government will agree! But they won't cut it too hard, at least 10 million square feet should be available."
Only then did Yin Jun understand.
Li Zhaoji is worthy of being an expert in land reclamation.
Such a bold assault, even if the Hong Kong Mansion originally meant only seven or eight million square feet, it would add a little upper limit.
"Or do it according to 70% of the land use return?" Yin Jun asked again.
"Of course!" Lee Zhaoji said seriously: "When I was in the first city of Sha Tin, others thought I was a lunatic, but in fact, the benefits I gained were too great. First of all, the Hong Kong and the government trusted me very much. In the future, they would ask for my opinions on land reclamation and land, hoping that I could participate... This is how the opportunity came.
Second, even 30% of 10 million square feet, there is still a huge land of 4.2 hectares. Such a piece of land is enough for us to develop for twenty years! When the main palace does their work well and improves various infrastructures, will our land still be afraid of not making money?"
"You are an expert, you have the final say." Yin Jun smiled and said, "What do you need me to do?"
"Of course it is support from funds and public opinion." Lee Zhaoji said, "In terms of money, we hope to have enough cash or bank authorization, so that the Hong Kong and the government will believe that we have the ability to reclaim 15 million square feet of land, so that we don't have to worry about our collapse in the middle. If Kirin Group comes out to endorse it, there will be no problem.
In terms of public opinion, we still have some competitors, so we should point to our strengths and boast about our strengths and plan this piece of land for red survey land so that both the government and the people can see our strength and planning. Once they have strong psychological hints, we will be half successful.”
"Okay, I will find someone to discuss the specific plan with Brother Ji." Yin Jun thought about it and agreed.
Lee Zhaoji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, his confidence is not as sufficient, mainly because of the giant Qilin Real Estate.
Huo Jianning's methods are not gentle, because he is young, so he is a bit sharp.
This was originally very offensive, but who told him to lean on the Qilin Group?
If you compare money, even Jardinet Company cannot compare to Kirin Group.
If you compare the momentum and media voice, the three major satellite TV stations and the Qilin Daily almost control the throat of the Xiangjiang media.
Compared with the strength in secret, the more than 10,000 people of the Kirin Security Team are enough to make anyone who believes they have a community relationship retreat. The club itself is trembling under the remaining power of the more than 10,000 people, and they avoid the Kirin Group's sphere of influence on weekdays.
Even the people who don’t dare to mess with Jiulong City, how many courage do they have to mess with?
He knew that Huo Jianning was also concerned about the land for reclaiming Hongjian.
However, Huo Jianning is now stuck with the "Lantau Development Plan" of Kirin Group and has no time to get out.
In addition, it seems that he has been flying to Japan recently and is preparing to invest in Japan, so he will not immediately interfere in Hongjian land for land reclaiming.
So Li Zhaoji seized the opportunity and came directly to talk to Yin Jun, preparing to pull Qilin Real Estate on board, so that his plan would be much more steadily and he would not have to worry about any competition.
Yin Jun was still as decisive as ever.
In other words, this involves a business worth tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, which is nothing in Yin Jun's eyes. Even if he returns to his capital slowly, he will not care.
Thinking of this, Li Zhaoji couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Six or seven years ago, this young man was just writing scripts in the entertainment industry. The reason why he was able to get a reward of 1 million yuan made the entertainment industry surprised and couldn't believe it.
But now, he can be several levels higher than himself and become the richest man in the world.
Things are impermanent, but such rapid and successful development should be unprecedented.
Fortunately, Yin Jun has a gentle personality, especially when he takes good care of the Chinese people, and often works together to make money, which also makes Chinese businessmen feel at ease.
Lee Zhaoji is even more different.
Yin Jun has 25% of the shares of Henderson Land. He and Li Zhaoji are the same people who eat in the same bowl, just like Li Chaoren's Cheung Kong Group.
Since we are all our own people, it is more reassuring to go forward and retreat together when doing business.
After all, isn’t it also harming the interests of Henderson Landlord?
