Chapter 42 Xiangjiang Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce
On February 8th, Li Guangyu came to 17 Des Voeux Road Central in Central. It is this small place where most of the families and real estate companies in Hong Kong gather for every meeting. The Hong Kong Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce, the Yacht Club and the Jockey Club are jointly ranked in Hong Kong.
Among the three top chambers of commerce, only the Xiangjiang Construction Chamber of Commerce is owned by Chinese-owned families.
Some people say that the three major chambers of commerce in Hong Kong control the entire economic development of Xiangjiang. Don’t believe it. Just look at the executives of these chambers of commerce and you will know how much influence they have in Hong Kong.
When Li Guangyu walked into the Xiangjiang Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce, there were already many directors and honorary consultants. Li Guangyu did not know many of them. Of course, he may have heard of their names, but Li Guangyu still met too few people.
This is also because Li Guangyu participated in too few high-level meetings and banquets. His rise was too short-lived, so he still has too few connections in Hong Kong's upper class society.
Not long after Li Guangyu entered, Li Zhaoji came to the conference room, and Li Guangyu hurriedly greeted him and said hello.
"Guangyu, I didn't expect you to join here at such a young age. Looking at you, fourth uncle, I feel old." Li Zhaoji said to Li Guangyu with a smile.
"Fourth Uncle, please don't take pleasure in Guangyu. You are now back in the day. Zhaoji Group is prospering under your leadership. It is a time of rapid development." Li Guangyu quickly returned.
"Guangyu, I can't compare to you. Looking at your development over the past year, your Starlight Real Estate alone has surpassed my Shauji Group."
"Uncle Fourth, that's because I was lucky. I made some money in Xingguang and Xiangyu Group. Now my real estate company only has input but no output. My ability in the real estate industry is far inferior to yours." Li Guangyu
Be humble.
"Guangyu, you don't have to be so humble in front of me. Who else in Xiangjiang can increase the family assets from more than 100 million to more than 10 billion in just one year. I admire your ability, uncle, if
In the future, if Jiajie is half as capable as you, I will be able to hand over the family business to him with confidence." Li Shauji sighed.
At this time, Guo Desheng came over and heard Li Shaoji's sigh, so he said: "Brother Li, you are in your prime, and Jiajie is only 16 years old. What are you worried about?"
Li Zhaoji listened to what Guo Desheng said and responded: "Isn't it a bit emotional to see Guangyu develop the family business so well?"
Li Guangyu saw the two tycoons talking, but he just stood aside and listened quietly.
Guo Desheng said: "Your two children are still young and have plenty of time to train them. I am just anxious now. None of these kids satisfy me. If they had half the ability of Guangyu, I would have handed over the company to them long ago."
.”
Li Shaoji also knew that none of the three brothers of the Guo family were the masters of pioneering, so he did not take Guo Desheng's words, but said to Li Guangyu: "Guangyu, you also know this guy, just call him Uncle Guo from now on."
Li Guangyu heard that Li Shauji wanted to get closer to Guo Desheng. This was what he wanted to do. So he followed Li Shauji's words and said, "Hello, Uncle Guo!"
Guo Desheng came here to establish a good relationship with Li Guangyu and said: "Guangyu, if you need Uncle Guo's help in the future, just ask. Uncle Guo will help as much as he can."
Li Zhaoji said: "Guangyu, you and I, Uncle Guo, are already old. In the future, Xiangjiang will still be dominated by you young people. I hope that you, Bingxiang and Jiajie can get along well with each other and develop together. I hope that in the future you will
I can help them so that our two families will not be lonely in the future."
Li Guangyu knew that this was the purpose of these two big guys. They were investing in Li Guangyu in advance, hoping that Li Guangyu could support their descendants in the future.
Li Guangyu didn't have any objections to this, as he could bring down the alliance between the two major families in Xiangjiang.
Li Guangyu said, "Uncle Fourth, Uncle Guo, don't worry. I will definitely cooperate more with Sun Hung Kai and Zhaoji Group in the future. Only when our Chinese-funded groups in Hong Kong are united can we better cooperate with the British-funded consortium headed by the Four Ocean Banks."
compete."
This is when Stanley Ho, the vice president of the Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce, came to the conference room. After confessing their guilt, Li Guangyu and Guo Li quickly stepped forward to say hello.
Stanley Ho said to Li Guangyu: "Guangyu, if you want to join the Chamber of Commerce, can you just tell me no? Why ask outsiders for recommendations? Isn't this just making others laugh?"
Li Guangyu knew that Stanley Ho had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Uncle Jiu, I didn't ask anyone to recommend me. If my grandpa hadn't mentioned it to me, I wouldn't have known what was going on. You also know, don't look at the huge assets of my real estate company.
, none of the serious projects have been developed. Now the group is busy developing commercial land in Tin Shui Wai, and I don’t pay much attention to the progress there. How can I find someone to recommend me to join the Real Estate Construction Association? Even if I want to
I am also looking for you, Uncle Li and the others."
After hearing what Li Guangyu said, Stanley Ho put aside the dissatisfaction in his heart. He said to Li Guangyu: "There are many people who recommended you to join the Chamber of Commerce this time. President Fok Yingdong, managing directors Hu Yinxiang and Wang Kuancheng,
Fang Runhua and several directors made joint nominations."
"Uncle Jiu, I'm not very familiar with these people. My relationship with a few of them isn't that good, either?" Li Guangyu knew that these people must be following Queen Huo Sha, staunch leftists.
Stanley Ho reminded Li Guangyu: "To them, you should thank them for a while. After all, we can't do anything without them in some materials of the construction industry in Hong Kong. But on some issues, we cannot express our opinions at will. My interests must be
It is necessary to ensure that the development of the family cannot be affected. This is what most of our families mean. Today's Hong Kong is the most sensitive time. You are so young now, don't do something impulsively that will make you regret in the future.
.”
Li Guangyu knew that Stanley Ho cared about him, otherwise he would not have said this to him. He returned: "Uncle Jiu, don't worry, I know how to do it."
…
With the arrival of Fok Yingdong, members of the Xiangjiang Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce have already arrived.
Fok Yingdong said at the meeting: "With the rapid development of Hong Kong, our chamber of commerce is constantly absorbing new blood. Today, our chamber of commerce has welcomed another young hero. On behalf of our chamber of commerce, I welcome Li Guangyu's joining.
Welcome."
Li Guangyu stood up and said: "Thank you for your recommendation and recognition of me. I am still young. I would like to ask my seniors for your guidance in my future development."
After seeing Li Guangyu finish speaking, Huo Yingdong continued: "I won't go into details about Li Sheng's deeds in the past year or so. I believe everyone knows a lot about him. After our last resolution, I now declare Li Guangyu to be the leader of Xiangjiang
He is a member of the real estate board of directors and also serves as the executive director of the Chamber of Commerce.”
Li Guangyu was surprised when he heard this. He originally thought that joining as a director would be enough, but he didn't expect that he was actually made a director of the executive committee. Can this be approved by these big guys?
Li Guangyu said: "Thank you to all the board members for their trust. Compared with my seniors in real estate, I still have a big gap. I thought I could just become a director. I didn't expect that my seniors recognized my ability, Li Guangyu.
I was elected as a director of the executive committee. In future meetings, I will do my best to provide advice and suggestions for the Xiangjiang real estate industry."
