I briefly talked with the old man about the issue of getting a loan to buy a house.
Buying a property seems to be deeply imprinted in the genes of Hong Kong people, and even Grandpa Su Yehao is not exempt from it.
If we delve deeper into the reasons why local people like houses, it is mainly because it is too difficult to live comfortably. In the early years, the living environment was too poor. Subdivided houses and caged houses were everywhere. A typical example is the demolished Kowloon Walled City.
Therefore, the status of villas in wealthy areas is so high, so there is a basis for the real estate bubble. If you look at the current Hong Kong rich list, seven or eight of the top ten are related to the real estate industry, which has fattened companies including Sihai International.
A large number of enterprises.
A large part of the reason why Mr. Tang is rich is because the hospitals and pharmacies themselves are very valuable.
The real estate built and purchased over the years has increased in value even more than the company's own profits. There are hundreds of popular shops all over Hong Kong, not to mention hospitals in Sheung Wan, Kowloon, Yau Tsim Mong and other places.
When his mother came back from a visit, Su Yehao told her about his plan to buy a property from Donghuang.
Mrs. Tang thought about it for a while and asked, "It sounds okay, but you have no experience. Can you manage it well?"
"I don't have experience, but others do. I really can't borrow a few people from my dad's staff. There is a travel company that is responsible for attracting guests, and it is its own hotel. The profit should be pretty good. In addition, you can also bet on the appreciation of real estate. Find someone to understand.
Regarding land acquisition and cost price, land prices have dropped back to a few years ago and Donghuang Group is barely making any money, which saves me a lot of trouble."
Su Yehao looked at his grandfather.
Mr. Tang understood and said helpfully: "I don't think there is a problem. The property market has been falling for more than a year and the prices are so cheap. Even if you lose money, you won't lose much, let alone tourists supporting the business. That family trust fund of yours,
You can’t really just leave it there to reap the dividends. Now, if you take out a loan to buy a property, your development may be faster.”
In the eyes of Su Yehao's mother, investing in real estate and hotels is much more reliable than investing in stocks in the United States.
Even if you have a broad vision, it doesn't mean you know everything. It's like a mountain. His mother is right to be cautious. After all, she is in her forties and she doesn't want to mess around anymore.
She patted Su Yehao on the shoulder and told him, "Okay, for such a big deal, I will personally discuss it with Director Jin Yu of Donghuang."
Su Yehao has met Jin Yu, Zhao Yimeng's mother, several times.
It's rare to be so easy to talk to. Things went smoother than expected. It didn't matter who went to talk. Su Yehao nodded immediately and said: "It doesn't matter if you go to talk, but it's best to leave the loan to the president of the Bank of China who I know. It should be done in the future."
Increase investment in the mainland, make some friends first, and make things easier in the future."
Mrs. Tang agreed casually, got up and went to the kitchen to read it, and invited her grandfather and grandson to come over for dinner...
Two big bowls of rice were mixed with soup made from radish and meat.
Until about four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yehao was still hiccupping. When he received a call from Nangong Tian from the UK, he was accompanying his grandfather to a neighbor's house.
It was just boring to be a mascot, so I chatted with Xiao Nizi who had just woken up for a long time.
Soon, Su Yehao received another call from his assistant Zhuang Wei, saying that the movie he invested in would be released tomorrow and would be played in more than 300 cinemas in the mainland.
Movie ticket prices vary across the country. Adult ticket prices in developed coastal provinces range from 12 to 30 yuan. There are discounts for students watching movies. In some places, you can buy them for only 3 yuan.
Cinemas have not been opened yet, they are all state-owned entities, the whole industry is in a mess, and Su Yehao doesn't expect to make much money at all.
As for pirated CDs, there is no way to supervise them. Fortunately, Su Yehao only wanted to advertise for TAT and never thought about worrying about it from the beginning, otherwise he would definitely be heartbroken.
The box office of this custom-made movie in Hong Kong City has been released, totaling more than 13 million, which is less than half of Xing Ye's movie. It has also been released in Japan and South Korea. The distribution aspect has been divided by others, and it has already returned eight dollars. More than a million.
It seems a bit difficult to expect to earn more than 10 million yuan from the mainland and protect your capital. It is not that easy to succeed in cross-border business.
However, the purpose of advertising has been achieved.
The movie's box office performance can only be considered average, and its publicity effect is a little stronger than traditional advertising. Anyone who has watched this movie will probably be deeply impressed by TAT. As for how many users it can attract, it is difficult to say for the time being, and there is no way to make detailed statistics.
All in all, it's just an advertisement.
After finishing chatting with Assistant Zhuang Wei, Su Yehao had nothing to do and thought about the future of the film industry.
This industry is deeply affected by the size of the market. The whole world is the market for Hollywood movies, and it is a miracle that the box office in Hong Kong can exceed 35 million. Therefore, there is little investment in Hong Kong movies, otherwise it will be difficult to make back the money.
Although there are many people in the mainland, the entire industry is like a pool of stagnant water. Throwing money into it is like doing charity. Don't expect to develop in the short term.
This reminded him of the genuine WPS priced at ninety-nine yuan. Some people scolded an office document for ninety-nine yuan. They tried their best to crack it, but in the end they could only pay for it and keep it. He really didn't know what to say. .
I don’t want to make any more movies, so instead of spending money on that, it’s better to spend a budget every year and just use it for implants.
Therefore, director Dou Jiafeng repeatedly tested Su Yehao's ideas with scripts and ideas, but he was always indifferent and too lazy to spend money to play around.
…
Mrs. Tang contacted Donghuang, had a meal with Zhao Yimeng's parents, and agreed on the details of the acquisition for HKD 1.6 billion on the spot.
Not only the Donghuang Century Plaza project, but also the five-star Donghuang Garden Hotel in Central.
Donghuang has been selling these two projects to the outside world, and both parties are acquaintances. It is of course convenient to discuss the transaction. It is more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars lower than the previous quotation. It is obviously a matter of survival, and the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain.
The bank for the loan chose Bank of China according to Su Yehao's idea. Before using the share loan, it also transferred 25 million Hong Kong dollars in dividends from the trust fund account to Su Yehao.
The money was transferred directly to First Quanye Bank without passing through Su Yehao's hands, and was used to pay off a short-term debt.
As soon as the money was paid, Su Yehao went to the vault of First Qunye Bank and took back the famous watches as pledges, including the "King of Pocket Watches" launched by Patek Philippe to celebrate its 150th anniversary.
Put it into the vault of Dalangwan Villa, and finally be able to change the watch every day without repeating it for a month.
After signing the contract with Donghuang, Zhao Yimeng personally took Su Yehao to the Donghuang Garden Hotel in Central to explain the news of the hotel's acquisition to the management.
There were a lot of trivial matters that needed to be dealt with, so she took Su Yehao for a walk first.
At this moment, the two of them came to the open-air restaurant on the top floor of the hotel and sat down to have a cocktail. In the evening, the sunset on the horizon was beautiful.
Zhao Yimeng sighed and said: "The day this hotel was first built, I was at the site with my mother, and you bought it away again. I'm really reluctant to let it go."
"I've spent a lot of money. If you don't get the old stuff, you won't get the new stuff. Please be more considerate... don't cry in my hotel. It's unlucky."
Hearing Su Yehao's words, Zhao Yimeng almost choked to death...
