After the meeting, Li Guangyu had individual meetings with Huo Yingdong and Hu Yingxiang.
In the office of the president of the Xiangjiang Real Estate Chamber of Commerce, Li Guangyu sat down and said: "Huo Sheng, Hu Sheng, do you have any special purpose for asking me?"
Li Guangyu is very busy these days. The thoughts of senior management have changed. The inspection team has begun to inspect some groups and companies again. The strike at the 7-11 headquarters and convenience stores in the United States has not yet been cleared up. Now that the Spring Festival is approaching, many things have changed.
He needs to deal with it.
Huo Yingdong said: "Li Sheng, the reason why I asked you to meet this time is first to thank you for your actions in mainland enterprises during this period, which has given Xiangjiang enterprises a good start.
The second is to thank you for what you have done in the Hong Kong property market. Although I have proposed that residents of Xiangjiang should have homes, I have not done enough in this regard."
Li Guangyu thought Huo Yingdong had something to do with him, but it turned out to be this. He was doing this more for his future development, and mainly for his own selfishness. Huo Yingdong's thank you made him feel quite ashamed.
Xiangjiang is not limited to the real estate industry. If the citizens of Xiangjiang spend money on buying houses, they will naturally use it in their daily lives, and the performance of Li Guangyu's other groups will be better.
Take a look at the companies owned by Li Guangyu and his allies. Citizens buy daily necessities from Hengyu Supermarket and Watsons, buy clothes from several major clothing groups, use Heung Kong Electric Group for electricity, China Gas for gas, and watch movies from Jiayiyuan.
Lines, public transportation options include Kowloon Bus and Heung Kong Airlines, home appliances are from Chunghwa Electric, communications are from Heung Kong Communications Group, products from Bentley Group are the first choice for cars, and Chow Tai Fook is the first choice for jewelry.
There is no need for Li Guangyu to gain profits by sacrificing the potential of Xiangjiang. The more stable the situation in Xiangjiang and the more prosperous the economy of Xiangjiang, the higher the profitability of Li Guangyu's industry will be.
Li Guangyu said: "Huo Sheng's words really make me ashamed. I just made a decision that is beneficial to the development of my company. I require my employees to work hard, otherwise they will get involved in politics. This is not just mainland China."
, this is the case for my industry in any region, such as Xiangjiang, Baodao, England, and other regions, I have such requirements.
As for Xiangjiang real estate, as I said at the meeting, I can ignore other places. I even hope that the higher the housing prices, the better. For example, in Japan, Xiangjiang is where I grew up and where most of my industry headquarters and roots are.
I hope the happiness index of the citizens here can be higher. This can be regarded as my contribution to Hong Kong."
Huo Yingdong originally thought that Li Guangyu had changed a lot now, but it seemed that he was overthinking it. Li Guangyu was still the Li Guangyu he knew. His egoistic nature had not changed, nor had his nature as a businessman.
It is only in Xiangjiang that Li Guangyu is willing to give up some benefits as the place where the Li Group started and was founded. The Li Group in other areas is definitely mercenary and is probably similar to those who want to restrict him at the meeting today.
It's hard for Huo Yingdong to say anything about this. Individuals have their own opinions. As Li Guangyu, who grew up in Xiangjiang, his ideas are obviously very different from theirs. The education he received since childhood is completely different.
In addition, Li Guangyu took over the family business and entered the business world at a young age. This makes Li Guangyu always look at things from the perspective of a businessman. The first thing he thinks about is whether it is beneficial to him. It is difficult to talk about feelings with Li Guangyu.
and dedication.
Fortunately, the Li family's tutoring is still very good. At least Li Guangyu still remembers his hometown. The only place where Li Guangyu has made selfless donations over the years is in Sichuan and Sichuan Province. The charitable donations there are close to one-third of the total charitable donations of the Li Group. This is
It's a very huge number.
According to statistics, in Sichuan and Sichuan provinces alone, the Cao Weiqing Charitable Foundation’s cumulative donations have exceeded 700 million yuan, which is close to 300 million U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate.
Huo Yingdong said: "You think you have done something beneficial to yourself, maybe you think it should be like this. It is what you think you should do that has reduced a lot of trouble for the mainland and Hong Kong, and has well maintained the economy of the two places.
Development, I thank you well deserved."
Huo Yingdong also knows how influential the Li Group is now. The number of employees in the mainland has exceeded 100,000, and the number is still increasing. With the development speed of the Li Group, it is expected that the number of employees will exceed 20 in the next year.
Ten thousand.
Not to mention his influence in Xiangjiang, he has great influence around the world. Many groups are top or first-class in the world. If something happens to him, the consequences will be very terrible.
Li Guangyu didn't care about this. He just wanted to develop his own industry in peace and quiet. It was only with the development of these years that he realized that it was not feasible to only care about the development of the industry.
Some areas wanted to restrict his industry, so he restricted his industry, but he had no ability to resist at all, so he established the Political Research Department. This department was established to maintain the stable development of his industry, as long as it did not endanger the development of his industry.
, he will not get too involved in politics.
Li Guangyu said: "Huo Sheng, you are not just asking me out this time just for this matter. If you have anything to do, please just tell me."
Li Guangyu didn't believe that these two people who asked him to meet this time were just to say thank you to him. Everyone had a lot of things to deal with, so they wouldn't be so free.
Huo Yingdong said: "Guangyu, this meeting with you is mainly about the issue of 50 hectares of land. I know that many families are very dissatisfied with this, and there is a lot of resentment among them.
It’s just that the deal is done now. I hope you, Zhaoji, Wenjin and others can understand more. The original intention of formulating this policy was good, but I didn’t expect that it would push up the current land price in Xiangjiang in a disguised way.”
It’s hard to say much about Li Guangyu. Anyway, they still have a lot of land in their hands, which is enough for them to develop over the years. Moreover, their home field of real estate development is not in Xiangjiang. Currently, the Japanese property market is their focus.
Li Guangyu said: "Huo Sheng, it doesn't matter to us. In the past few years, we have no plans to compete for the land auctioned by the government. It's just that there are too many people and too little food. Even if these groups on our side don't fight, the land price will still remain high, and in the future it will only
will be higher.
If this knot is not opened, there is no doubt that the property market in Xiangjiang will rise. The cost is just there. Even if several of our major groups build, the selling price cannot be lower than their cost price. If we really do that, we will lose a lot of real estate.
Enterprises are driven to death.”
How could Huo Yingdong not understand the situation here? Although a large part of this meeting was for Li Guangyu, there was also a reason why land prices were getting more and more expensive. In order to make profits, they certainly didn't want Li Guangyu to do so.
Coslight disrupts the market.
It’s just that this matter cannot be solved now, and it will probably not be solved until Xiangjiang returns. This will still take up to ten years. During this period, too many variables will occur. If only their Xiangjiang Huazi family can still internally
Negotiate to lower the land price auctioned by the Xiangjiang government.
It's just that Xiangjiang is not only home to family businesses like theirs, but also has British-owned real estate groups and real estate groups from some families in Southeast Asia. How could they give up purchasing land for development?
Hu Yingxiang said: "Li Sheng, I also know that you don't want the development of Xiangjiang to be hindered by real estate. The current situation has become this state. We hope that you, Zhaoji, Jiacheng, and Desheng can continue to increase Xiangjiang real estate."
As long as property prices do not rise, it will be difficult for land prices to rise."
Li Guangyu did not immediately reply to Hu Yingxiang's suggestion. At present, the funds of Cheung Kong, Zhaoji, IWC and other groups are all invested in the Japanese property market, and they all hope to make a lot of money there. At this time, there is not much financial resources to develop here.
And if they really do this, they will definitely become a thorn in the side of many real estate companies in Hong Kong. If given the opportunity, these companies will definitely retaliate.
