"Have the procedures been completed? Before the renovation, I will ask someone to show you the design drawings. If you want to change anything, just tell me. The renovation budget of each house is 3.5 million Hong Kong dollars, and the quality will definitely not be the same.
question."
The speaker was He Shaofan's father.
This Uncle He, whose name is He Hengzuo, was married to the niece of the Wang family of Lao Chuan, so he was a well-matched match.
After many years of marriage, the relationship faded, and he raised several women outside. His illegitimate children even went to the He family to cause trouble, and they spent tens of millions to settle the matter.
He Shaofan has always been a big talker and dared to talk about scandals at home. No matter where in Southeast Asia or the local atmosphere is relatively relaxed, women have become a barrier that many wealthy businessmen cannot get around.
If someone is single-minded and loving with his original spouse, he will become the subject of talk by others. The main reason is that it is so rare that it is normal for the aunts and wives at home to fight each other, which makes people addicted to eating melons all year round and in all seasons.
lack.
"The project developed by your company is built by my father's company. Of course I am very relieved, otherwise I would not come here to buy a house."
Su Yehao was in a good mood after buying a villa with a lot of potential for future appreciation at almost the cost price. He sat on the sofa and drank tea with a cup in hand.
Dongding Oolong tea is called "the Holy of Teas" by people in Baodao. The tea soup is refreshing and pleasant, and the tea color is green with yellow. It is produced in the mountains hundreds of meters above sea level. It tastes quite good.
After hearing what he said, Uncle He smiled and replied: "One out of every three casino projects is your father's business. If something goes wrong, it's really not my fault. I'll fight with them later."
Say hello, once you know that we are building a house for you, the quality will definitely be stronger."
"That's not necessarily true. If someone thinks my dad is unhappy and deliberately does not put steel bars in the load-bearing beams, then I will be in trouble."
Su Yehao was joking.
With He Shaofan's relationship, the two families were already relatively close.
Uncle He laughed, joked a few words along the topic, and then got down to business and told:
"People outside are saying that you made a fortune by investing in the United States. My son is your friend. With his kind of mind, he is probably hopeless. He will have to rely on you to help him in the future. Alas, family matters
Duo, I have neglected to discipline Shaofan since he was a child, and now everyone is envious of your father for raising such a good son like you."
If there are too many things at home, it should be because there are too many women and children to handle.
If there were a few less, the family trust would not only give He Shaofan a monthly dividend of 40,000 US dollars. Compared with other people's wages, this number seems quite high, but with the wealth of the He family, such a small amount is unjustifiable.
.
For example, the charitable trust established by Mrs. Tang for Su Yehao agreed to give him HKD 30 million per year in the first five years, which will be increased to HKD 50 million in the future. In addition, it can also help him pay for rates, living expenses, etc.
There is an annual budget of 20 million Hong Kong dollars.
The so-called rates refer to the Hong Kong City land tax, which is also a considerable expense based on the value of the real estate held by Su Yehao.
With the trust in hand, Su Yehao can completely say that he does not need to spend money, including buying private jets, buying houses, etc. All expenses are paid in the name of the company. He has tens of millions lying in his personal account, which has not been used for a long time.
"Uncle He, when I first started doing business, I asked them if they wanted to join the business, but they thought I couldn't make money and looked down on me. What can I do?"
Su Yehao sighed and continued in the tone of an experienced person:
Gu Hao
"They are too young and too playful. After entering college, they become more and more free. This is not what I taught you. I don't see He Shaofan very often recently. Last year, your son and I jointly established a travel company, and we have a good business relationship.
I am responsible for Master Jiang who is next to my father, and it has developed quite quickly."
Originally, Uncle He wanted to take advantage of Su Yehao's presence to ask him to help his son.
After listening to these words, I also understood that my kid couldn't hold up the wall, so he said with a headache: "I know about the travel company. The streets in Hong Kong City are full of mainlanders. There must be a future in this industry, and I have to thank you. Forget it.
When I have time next time, I will go to Hong Kong City to teach him a lesson in person. I am busy playing in college, so why not stop going and just follow me and learn how to do business."
"Well, they are very nice people. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to play together. Maybe I'm too precocious. It's not fun to make money by going to bars, so I didn't accompany them to fool around."
In front of his friend's father, Su Yehao felt that it would be better for him to be a Taoist friend rather than a poor Taoist. No matter whether He Shaofan was cheated or not, he just didn't take the blame on himself.
It was okay to play around when they were in high school, but now Bucktooth Jun and the others are still thinking about playing together all day long. Without topics about women, they can't talk together, so it would be nice to sort it out.
I saw that Su Yehao was well-behaved and sensible, and he was also very good at making money.
At this moment, Uncle He just felt that his son was so worthless. The more he looked at Su Yehao, who came ashore clean, the more he liked him, which made him even more impatient and wanted to beat up He Shaofan.
After silently making up his mind, Uncle He changed the topic and asked again:
"Do you have any clues about how your father and the Zhao family of Donghuang acquired land together? In 1990, I spent money to buy 1.1% of Donghuang's shares. I have been holding on to them and have been reluctant to sell them. During this period, Donghuang
The situation is about to change, and the stock price has soared. Even I couldn't resist the temptation. I cashed out HK$60 million when the price was right two days ago, and I'm hesitating whether to sell it all."
"The barbarians at the gate of Donghuang are really persistent. They failed last time, so why are they coming back again? I haven't asked about Guangzhou Cultural Tourism City, so I don't know. There should be no problem."
Su Yehao wasn't sure whether this was considered inside information. He was worried about making a fuss about it, so he simply avoided the important stuff and gave a vague answer.
The so-called barbarians come from the movie Barbarians at the Gate, which mainly talks about hostile takeovers.
Uncle He had never seen the movie and didn't understand its meaning. He just bothered to agonize over the sentence "There should be no problem" and only said:
"The second shareholder led a group of people to seize power. Several Southeast Asian companies also participated, and with the help of Goldman Sachs in the United States, they spent a lot of money. I think the Zhao family is having a hard time this time. They can't spare much money.
I have increased my shareholding, but it seems that something went wrong in my business in Australia.”
Su Yehao accidentally heard about Australia. He knew nothing about it and curiously asked: "Is Donghuang Group still investing in Australia?"
"It's not Donghuang, it's a business invested by Boss Zhao himself. He took a piece of land in Sydney, and it seems like it's been three years, but he hasn't been able to start construction. There is a kind of protected animal life within the land, and it can't be developed or sold.
The land we paid more than 100 million US dollars for is just abandoned, and it must have been tricked by white people."
Uncle He gloated, shook his head with a smile, and added: "So, you must not do unfamiliar business. The bank is urging his family to repay the loan. It seems that he is about to default."
Su Yehao couldn't help but laugh. It was really tragic that he was tricked by a protected animal.
The reason why Zhao Yimeng's family has been having problems one after another is that the real estate bubble burst in Hong Kong.
Doing business often requires confidence. Everyone thinks it works, and even if it doesn't work, it can work. Like Donghuang and the Zhao family, everyone thinks it doesn't work, so even if something works, it won't work in the end.
Even Uncle He knew that the Zhao family couldn't come up with more money. No wonder some people were tempted and took the opportunity to start adding insult to injury.
