Although the Jade Emperor Group's bidding caused a huge sensation, the huge sensation soon passed.
It has become a common topic of conversation among citizens of various Southeast Asian countries. After all, this matter has little relevance to most people.
Whether the Jade Emperor Group invests US$2 billion or US$20 billion, everyone should continue to go to work. The distance between Holy Egg Island and Hong Kong Island is really too far, a full 3,700 kilometers. For Hong Kong Island
The impact cannot be seen in a short time, nor can most people see it.
The biggest beneficiaries among the various tycoons on Hong Kong Island are the two shipping kings, Chartered Shipping King and Dong Shipping King. They took this opportunity to purchase freighters. Currently, the debt ratio of the shipping groups owned by these two shipping kings is too high.
Gao, the two companies also began planning to be listed on the Far East Society to raise funds.
Regardless of the disturbances from the outside world, Zhang Zhonghua was once again invited to the Hong Kong Government by Governor Dai Lincheng. However, he was a little confused about Dai Lincheng's invitation this time. He would not want to donate another education fund.
The economic development of Hong Kong Island has been very rapid in the past two years, and it has become a shining pearl in Southeast Asia. Living in Hong Kong is also very comfortable, not as annoying as it was a few years ago.
Moreover, Dai Linzhi, the Hong Kong government, will resign in a few months to return to John Bull, and Hong Kong Island will also enter the MacLehose era. What does this old man want to do with him at this time?
Although he didn't understand the reason, Zhang Zhonghua was very considerate of the Hong Kong government's invitation and visited him on time.
"Your Excellency, it's bad morning."
Geng Fangcong was very polite and cheerful on the surface, but his heart was full of question marks.
The construction of Chek Lap Kok International Airport was only completed in 1994, and the airport investors were also a messy group at that time, which ultimately made the airport property rights issue a mess.
I am resigning immediately. Why should I care about the life and death of Kai Tak Airport?
"Your Excellency, did you know that nothing happened when you came to see you that time?"
Swire & Co.'s current power in Hong Kong Island is very small. For example, the lower-level members of the Swire Group also serve as members of the Executive Council and the Legislative Council. One of the seven small companies is a vegetarian.
"My Majesty, the Governor, I am telling him that you have arranged for people to conduct inspections later. If you want to build an airport outside Hong Kong Island, you can only reclaim land and build the airport first. In that case, the airport will be more than eighty-seven miles away from the city.
Ten kilometers away."
York Zhang Zhonghua was also shocked when he heard this. As expected, he was really stingy and wealthy. Instead of acquiring John Bull's seventh-ranked shipping company, he might as well go to Xinguo to build a shipyard. Swire also wanted to build a shipyard. Is there anyone?
It's bad if it's too close.
Geng Fangcong said with a smile.
"Sir Schweizer, their Dai Lin Group is going to start construction on Holy Egg Island with a small amount of effort. Do you know that it won't be easy yet?"
Geng Fangzhi really loves and hates Shi Huaiya and the giant Dai Lin Group. He is always able to come up with new tricks that make him very entangled.
"Singapore is also a very wrong place. It is located at the key thoroughfare of the Malacca Strait and has very no development prospects.
Shi Huaiya said very politely.
Jade Emperor Zhi is very worried about whether his political achievements are still there. I understand that Geng Fangcong is planning to build Holy Egg Island into the most famous tourist destination in Southeast Asia and even the world.
"I would like to ask the Governor of Hong Kong to come up with this point. Education is related to the growth of the previous generation. Those children are the future of Hong Kong Island. Publicity and education are not the responsibility of the media. It is what you should do.
"It's not bad. There is basically a small gap. Hong Kong Island's taxes were still wrong in those two years, and not many wealthy people donated much to Hong Kong Island's education."
The two exchanged a few polite words in the office. Jade Emperor Toe had worked in Hong Kong Island for so many years, so he knew that it would be difficult to get used to working at John Bull.
Look at how few students have been enrolled this year and how few teachers and public officials have been recruited. Is there any gap in education funding?"
Shi Huaiya explained.
York Zhang Zhonghua asked with a smile.
Hong Kong Island's evaluation of the seven small foreign banks in Hong Kong Island is: Jardine is the most aggressive, Hutchison is actively withdrawing, Wheelock has frequent internal strife, and Swire is restrained and conservative, and is a typical example of immersed in work.
The group's hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui is about to start construction soon. It is a skyscraper over 400 meters tall and will definitely become a landmark building on Hong Kong Island and even in Asia."
"Sir Swire, I heard that Gengfang Group is also planning to build a shipyard?"
"Yes, it is true that the demand for ships on Saint Egg Island is very small, so we established our own shipyard. Now Dailin Group successfully acquired Fornesvi Shipbuilding Company and plans to build one in Sentosa, New Zealand.
Branch shipyard."
In the end, Shi Huaiya temporarily rejected Geng Fangzhi's request and returned to the group to discuss the construction of the airport with the lower levels of the group.
How could he build the airport somewhere else? But I understand what Shuaiya said is the truth. There is indeed no place to build a small international airport on Hong Kong Island at present.
Hong Kong Cathay Pacific was officially established in 1948. It has been doing a monopoly business for the past seventy years. Cathay Pacific was not delisted until 1986. Mengwai was trying to take advantage of the Swire Group.
A few days ago, Schweizer came to the Hong Kong government again, of course, to build an international airport and establish an airline.
"It's okay, but there's nothing we need to know more about. Their Gengfang Group's investment project on Holy Egg Island has been hugely expensive. Knowing that Dai Lin's film and television base in Hong Kong Island will still be built unusually?"
"Sir Geng Fangcong, thank you. Welcome to my humble home."
"No need to thank Sir Geng Fangcong for donating again. It is also a blessing for these children that Hong Kong Island does not have Dai Lin Group."
Hong Kong Island is the origin of Dai Lin Group and will always be the home of Dai Lin Group. Dai Lin Group will not only increase its investment in Hong Kong Island, but also increase its small investment.
"Your Excellency, Geng Fang Group has actually wanted to purchase some Boeing 747 aircraft for business needs before you personally. However, you also know the situation at Kai Tak Airport. This situation is completely unable to meet the take-off and landing of small aircraft.
That slightly restricts the development of Dailin Group.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shi Huaiya said.
I have long been eyeing the location of the airport being built on Hong Kong Island. It is not the location of the future Hong Kong Island International Airport, and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is also passing by.
A small dock can be built.
"Oh, has the location of such a small international airport been determined?"
Geng Fangzhi is very distressed. If he waits until I return to John Bull, he will build it somewhere else. I don't care. But once the decision to build the airport on Hong Kong Island comes out after I leave office, I am afraid that the laughingstock will be
Follow me forever.
Geng Fangcong said half-truth and half-falsely.
In order for the Dai Lin Group to build a film and television base, the Hong Kong government sold 800 acres of land to Geng Fang. If it were to be built again, wouldn't this be a trap for BJ?
Shi Huaiya asked.
"Your Excellency, please worry about that. If the Dai Lin Film and Television Base on Hong Kong Island will be built in Tseung Kwan O as planned, on the one hand, the palace complex of the film and television base is mainly made of wooden structures. It is suitable for Saint Egg Island. Saint Egg Island
Dandao is preparing to be built into a modern city.
It is Swire's long-standing tradition to only make long-term investments. The Zhang Zhonghua family's motto is: when considering a project, you have to look at 50 years. This is not what Buffett means.
"Well, the current plan is to build it in Wanwan Province or in Omen. Is there really a suitable place to build an airport on Hong Kong Island?"
Geng Fangcong said with a helpless expression.
On the other hand, another main function of the film and television base is to shoot film and television dramas. It may draw people to Holy Egg Island every time a film or television drama is filmed.
"You are very much looking forward to the day when his hotel will be completed as soon as possible. When it is completed, he will definitely send you an invitation. I hope that Hong Kong Island will become more and more prosperous."
In this way, Schweizer can't move the film and television base originally planned to be built on Hong Kong Island to Holy Egg Island, which will also attract fewer tourists to Holy Egg Island.
Jade Emperor Toe asked.
To be honest, Geng Fangzhi did make a great contribution to the development of Hong Kong Island during those years when he was in office. As for what happened after that, Yuhuangzhi was not guilty of the crime, and Yuhuangzhi was still very important to Dai Lin Group in those years.
Very wrong.
As for what will happen to the current Kai Tak Airport on Hong Kong Island before the new small international airport is built?
The most important thing is the Aomen side. If they knew that the Dai Lin Group had no intention of building a small airport, they would probably lose all face and beg the Dai Lin Group to go here.
"By the way, this is the first year of compulsory education. In the next few days, the Education Department will be doing mobilization work. Their media company under the Dailin Group will have to do a little publicity."
If you want to build a shipyard here on Tsing Yi Island, the only disadvantage is that it is not convenient to buy steel. Even if you buy steel from Japan's New East Railway, it will cost less than 2,000 kilometres."
"You are bad, Sir Zhang Zhonghua."
Those words left Yuhuangzhi speechless. He did make some money in Hong Kong Island, but the money he made in Hong Kong Island was far less than what he invested and donated in Hong Kong Island.
However, no matter where it is built, a small international airport will slightly boost the local economic development. If the small international airport is built in another city by the Dailin Group during his term, I am afraid it will bring a bad reputation.
"Sir Sir Swire, you think the location of Chek Lap Kok is wrong. Moreover, there is no small island to block the typhoon, and it is far away from Tuen Mun and Yuen Long..."
"Sir Zhang Zhonghua, they are going to build a new area in Taikoo Shing. Before the area is completed, your Dai Lin Group wants to buy 20 buildings from Taikoo Shing to be used as employee dormitories. I hope the Swire Group can leave them for you by then.
One batch."
In fact, you are more inclined to build the airport on Hong Kong Island. After all, the conditions of Hong Kong Island are better than those of other regions, and it is more convenient to get to Saint Egg Island from Hong Kong Island and only require a few transfers."
If you want to build an airport here, do you have the $2.8 billion to build it? Is it confirmed or not? At present, the labor force on Hong Kong Island has not risen yet. The workers’ wages alone are a huge sum.
expenditures.
Shi Huaiya smiled and said to York Zhang Zhonghua.
"That way you can also make us better than others. Gengfang Group also donated 5 million US dollars. That money will be mainly used to improve the dining conditions of teachers and students and the office and teaching environment."
"That's right. In the future, Holy Egg Island will be built into a global tourist destination. Your Dailin Group plans to build a small international airport in Southeast Asia, and then transfer directly from the international airport to Holy Egg Island."
In my opinion, Gengfang Group must retreat into the aviation field. Dai Lin Group must have its own airline. How can it attract tourists to go to Holy Egg Island for vacation? I am used to being choked by others and I definitely allow others to choke my neck.
Jade Emperor Zhi said with a smile.
Jade Emperor asked Shi Huaiya.
Although the Swire Group and Geng Fang Group came out of Hong Kong Island and said they could hang up the Seven Small Foreign Banks, they were still afraid. But in Hong Kong Island, even the Swire Group and the Dai Lin Group had to temporarily avoid the attack of the Seven Small Banks.
"Sir Sir Swire, as long as he is willing to build the airport on Hong Kong Island, you will do your best to meet any conditions he imposes."
The Jade Emperor was helpless after hearing this from Shi Huaiya. He, Shi Huaiya, just said that Hong Kong Island is the home of the Dai Lin Group. Without the support of the people of Hong Kong Island, would he and the Dai Lin Group be where they are today?
Jade Emperor Zhi also expressed his kind words towards Geng Fangcong.
It will definitely be very difficult to finish the construction of the airport now. The Hong Kong government does not have much money now, and even if it wants to occupy the shares, it will only take up a lot less.
Moreover, Dai Lin cannot be asked to carefully select the location, saying that it must be reclaimed by the Dai Lin Group, as long as Shi Huaiya is willing to build the airport here.
When Shi Huaiya came to the conference room, York Kidston Geng Fangcong, the seventh head of the Zhang Zhonghua family, was already drinking coffee in the conference room and waiting for Geng Fangcong's arrival. York Geng Fangcong, who was over eighty years old, sat calmly in the meeting
Beside the table.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As for the Swire Group in Hong Kong, it does not own Kai Tak Airport, and there are some skyscrapers in Central and Tsim Sha Tsui, so it will definitely invest in the new airport.
Jade Emperor Toe racked his brains to think of something right here, but I also knew that this place was really not a place where birds pooped.
Geng Fangcong slapped the Jade Emperor's toes in a bad way, hoping to let that person resign safely to cause trouble for himself.
"Um... Sir Schweizer, do you think he can't arrange for someone to conduct an inspection to see if there is any suitable place on Hong Kong Island for building an airport?"
"That's what you should do. The people of Hong Kong Island have given minimal support to you and the Dai Lin Group. Without the support of the people of Hong Kong Island, you and the Dai Lin Group would not be where they are today..."
Jade Emperor Toe said with satisfaction.
"Hong Kong Island could not be what it is today. It was only under your governance, Governor of Hong Kong, that Hong Kong Island ended its rapid development. During those years when you were in office, you made countless contributions to the development of Hong Kong Island...
"
Moreover, at Kai Tak Airport on the G day, every time I fly there, I am very nervous. I think everyone on Hong Kong Island hopes that Geng Fang Group can build an airport on Hong Kong Island.
As soon as Jade Emperor Zhi saw Geng Fangcong, he greeted Geng Fangcong very coldly, with a smile on his face.
The Jade Emperor raised his toes firmly and said...
Shi Huaiya explained.
Geng Fangzhi said to Geng Fangcong seriously, his expression was not even a little humble.
Hong Kong Island is about 2,000 kilometers away from the new East Rail Link in Japan, and about 3,000 kilometers away from the new East Rail Link in Java. The reason why Swire chose to build a shipyard in New Zealand was not to consider the issue of steel transportation.
In the future, among the seven small foreign companies, Four Longcang and Wheelock under the banner of Jardine Matheson were acquired by the Charter King, and Hutchison Whampoa was acquired by Li Chaoren. Jardine was even forced to change its registration place to Bermuda. Then he returned to London, only to
No ancient foreign company is as stable as an old dog, sitting back and watching the changes.
