One thousand three hundred thirty-ninth chapter staking
In Bucharest, the capital of Romania, high-level European officials such as Gan Qinglin, Zhang Ziyu, and Zhao Qihui have arrived here, and the hotel they are staying at is the Jiuhua Hotel that just opened at the end of last year.
At present, Jiuhua Hotels is the hotel group with the largest number of hotels in the world. As long as the countries and regions that Jiuhua Hotels Group can enter, there are Jiuhua Hotels in their capitals or central cities and important cities.
As of the end of March, the number of hotels in operation by Jiuhua Hotels reached 516. The group’s profit last year reached HK$8.3 billion. The reason for such high profits is that firstly, all hotel properties are owned by Jiuhua Hotels. Secondly, Jiuhua Hotels owns all the hotels.
It is established in a relatively important city in the world and has a very high occupancy rate.
Romania's population reached 23.2 million as of last year, and its capital, Bucharest, is the only city in the country with a permanent population of more than one million.
Before meeting with Romanian high-level officials, Li Guangyu first had some exchanges with his allies to discuss the specific industries to be developed in Romania.
In the private room of Jiuhua Hotel, everyone was discussing specific investments while having dinner.
Romania is currently very radical in all aspects. Many companies are going to be privatized, including the petrochemical industry, retail industry, hotel industry, as well as many processing companies and the well-known wine industry.
At the same time, restrictions will be lifted on the financial industry, construction industry, medical industry, communications, transportation industry and other industries, and some undesirable industries in these industries will be privatized.
This time Li Guangyu has such a large team and they are not just playing around. They will reach out into every industry they can enter in Romania.
Especially in the retail, commercial real estate, petrochemical industry, financial industry, communications and other industries, while assisting Romania's economic reform, it also allows its own enterprises to grow and develop.
In the box, Gan Qinglin told everyone present in detail the current situation in Romania in all aspects, and at the same time introduced some of the key enterprises identified by Li Guangyu and others.
Li Guangyu said: "This time Romania is a very good opportunity for us, and it is also a demonstration for some of the countries that joined the Soviet Union. As long as Romania's economy develops rapidly, I believe that some of the countries that will become independent from the Soviet Union will also welcome us in in the future.
invest."
Now the Lee Group, the European Community Capital, and the American Group are all competing for land. All parties have now gained some markets. Now it depends on who can drive its economic development. This will also affect the choice of the Soviet Union to join the country in the future.
.
Especially now that the European Community has stood up to compete head-on with the United States, Romania has a huge equipment replacement plan. In the future, it will mainly purchase Western European equipment. The same goes for Hungary and Czechoslovakia, which will also mainly purchase Western European equipment.
Poland, Bulgaria, Lithuania, etc. are following the United States, and their main equipment will be purchased from the United States.
At present, economic reforms in several countries are carried out by each party on its own. American capital has entered Poland, Bulgaria, Lithuania, etc., the Lee Group (including the Xiangjiang Bank Group and the Hsinchu Bank Group) has entered Romania, and Western European capital has entered Hungary and Czechoslovakia.
As for Japanese and Korean capital, they have not put their minds here now. Eastern Europe is now very crowded with capital, and they are not willing to make wedding dresses for the United States, so the capital of the two countries has now gone to West Africa, where the resources are also quite large.
It is rich in minerals and oil, which is very suitable for them to invest.
When Li Guangyu entered here, he was also making wedding clothes for Western Europe to a certain extent. After all, Romania's huge arms purchase orders were from major Western European arms companies, which had nothing to do with him, so he could occupy the economic market here.
.
Of course, Li Guangyu is not without compensation. First of all, the Li Consortium has already put its hands into Airbus. The French side transferred 5% of the shares to the Li Consortium at the same market value.
Moreover, Germany, France and Spain are planning to establish the European Aeronautical Defense and Space Group, which will include not only Airbus, but also a number of military companies.
This group will be listed in Paris in the future, and the governments of several countries have promised that the Li Group can subscribe for up to 5% of the shares before the listing.
Although the number of shares is pitiful, and the main controlling shares are in the hands of France, Germany and Spain, and the Li Group has no management rights and can only arrange financial representatives for shareholders to settle in, but being able to intervene is already a good start.
It was a pity that companies manufacturing tanks and artillery in Germany did not give him the opportunity to invest in the company, so he had no choice but to give up.
Li Guangyu also knows the reason why he can invest in Airbus. This is mainly because he has made great contributions to Airbus. He is Airbus's largest customer, holding shares in five airlines, and orders nearly five aircraft from Airbus every year.
cross.
Affected by this, many Asian countries also mainly purchase Airbus aircraft, allowing Airbus to be on par with Boeing in the world. Without Li Guangyu, Airbus would not even think about it.
As for whether the so-called European Aeronautical Defense and Space Group was a pie painted for him or if it was real, Li Guangyu is not sure now. After all, it is not so easy for important military aviation companies from several countries to integrate together, even if they can be integrated.
N years later.
There is nothing Li Guangyu can do now. The military aspect is not something he can handle. Cooperation with Western Europe is better than cooperation with the United States.
The Lee Group cannot occupy the Romanian military equipment market and can only occupy other markets as much as possible, especially the communications, finance, retail and other markets.
Guo Bingxiang said aloud: "Romania's vineyards are quite good, and several wine companies are also relatively famous and well-established. Romania is going to privatize them this time, and our Jinfeng Wine Group just happened to acquire one to enhance the heritage of our red wine industry.
"
The Guo family's main business is still Sun Hung Kai Properties. Neither Jinfeng Liquor nor Sun Hung Fitness Equipment, which has not developed for long, can shake Sun Hung Kai Properties' position.
The Guo family now holds 35% of the shares in Sun Hung Kai Properties, 30% of the shares in Jinfeng Liquor, and 40% of the shares in Sun Hung Fitness Equipment.
At the same time, Sun Hung Kai Hotel's Guo Family holds 20% of the shares, Zhao Kee Group holds 30% of the shares, Sun Hung Kai Holdings holds 20 shares, and Hong Kong Bank holds 30% of the shares. The chairman of the board of directors of the hotel company is Li Jiajie.
These are also the main major enterprises of the Guo family at present. Of course, the Guo family also has shares in Heung Kong Bank, Heung Kong China Investment Company, Shau Kee Group, Sun Hung Kai Bank and other companies.
After Guo Desheng passed away, Guo Bingxiang became the chairman of the board of directors of Sun Hung Kai Properties and the chairman of the board of directors of Jinfeng Liquor Group. His two brothers served as directors of some joint-stock companies.
In this year's ranking of the richest people in Hong Kong, Guo Bingxiang topped the list of the richest people in Hong Kong with 26.8 billion Hong Kong dollars. Michael Kadoorie ranked second. He inherited the family business and took the second place with 25.9 billion Hong Kong dollars. The third was
Cao Weide ranks third with assets of HK$24.6 billion.
Because of the Hong Kong Rich List and the publicity of several major media in Hong Kong, Guo Bingxiang, Cao Weide, Li Zekai, Li Jiajie, Feng Yubin, Feng Yongxiang and others are quite famous in many parts of Asia.
As for Li Guangyu, it is already a legend. Except for Xiangjiang, it is difficult to hear news about Li Guangyu in other areas. After a few more years, the outside world will basically forget about him.
