After Youde finished speaking, Li Guangyu, as the helmsman with the largest number of industries, the largest scale, and the highest reputation in Xiangjiang, made a speech at the meeting.
Li Guangyu said: "The Governor has elaborated on the current political and economic situation in Hong Kong, and I will not say more in this regard."
"The collapse of the property market in Xiangjiang has dealt a huge blow to many people here, but it is inevitable. I remember I said two years ago that the rapidly growing housing prices in Xiangjiang will not last long. In the next few years in Xiangjiang,
It will be difficult for the property market to rebound over time. Our geographical location in Xiangjiang is very good, and the economic policies implemented here give us more development opportunities."
Then Li Guangyu talked about the advantages of Xiangjiang, which are mainly focused on the mainland market. When the real estate industry in Xiangjiang fails, the trading industry in Xiangjiang can focus on development.
Nowadays, many import and export items in mainland China use Xiangjiang as a transit base, which brings great convenience to Xiangjiang. Mainland China's reform and opening up is still accelerating. In the future, mainland China's import and export trade will become more and more prosperous because of the free trade implemented in Xiangjiang.
Policy, this place will become a transit base for mainland China to communicate with the world.
Li Guangyu's words made some family leaders below even more upset. Li Guangyu warned them a few years ago that the Hong Kong property market would enter a crisis. Unfortunately, the high profits of the Hong Kong property market made them addicted to it. They thought that Li Guangyu was more of an alarmist.
Now I have to pay the price for not listening to the advice.
It's just that this order was too big and heavy, and some of their staff found out that they couldn't afford it.
Li Guangyu continued: "Xiangjiang is the foundation of all of us. I hope everyone can think about the future development of Xiangjiang. I also know that the real estate industry makes money. I, Li Guangyu, am also a businessman and will not give up this kind of business. But I still hope
Everyone can consider the actual situation in Hong Kong and whether the public can afford the high housing prices. When they fall into pessimism, companies like us in Hong Kong will only suffer the consequences."
"When I first attended the Real Estate Business Association, I suggested that everyone should not stick to the Hong Kong market. How big is Hong Kong and how many people are there? We must dare to go out, whether it is South Korea or Japan, whether it is Treasure Island or
There is a vast market in Southeast Asia. As long as we dare to explore it, everyone will be able to make the industry bigger, and the group and company will also be able to develop better."
The Li Group has always been the representative of Xiangjiang enterprises going global. While everyone was clinging to the Xiangjiang market, the Li Group started its layout in Japan. Now let’s look at the comparison between Japan and Xiangjiang.
In the past, the property market in Xiangjiang grew rapidly. Many real estate executives in Xiangjiang felt that Li Guangyu was stupid. He spent huge sums of money investing in the Japanese market even though he could earn greater profits in Xiangjiang.
As a result, the Li Group does not occupy a large share of the Xiangjiang real estate market. The Li Group itself has only built a Star City project in a remote place in Tianshuiwei. Apart from this, it has not developed other projects.
.
Especially at the beginning of last year, Li's Starlight Real Estate Group also stopped the development of Xiangjiang and moved to the Baodao market. At that time, housing prices in Xiangjiang were still rising, and many people did not understand Li Guangyu's approach.
Now they know that if they stick to one market and seem to make money, when the crisis comes, they will also die the worst.
The ones least affected by the property market crash are the Lee Group and its interest groups. Last year, they all followed the footsteps of the Lee Group and made every effort to develop the Japanese real estate market.
Now the Japanese market and the Xiangjiang property market have completely turned around. The property market there is still rising, and coupled with the appreciation of the yen, these groups can obtain very good returns there.
But those of me who thought these people were stupid at first discovered that I was the stupidest group of people. I could only watch the prices of the property market in Xiangjiang slip into the abyss step by step without being able to do anything about it, and my assets were also constantly depreciating.
As Li Guangyu said, Xiangjiang is only so big, with a population of just over five million. How can it support so many real estate companies for development? Moreover, the rising housing prices will only make citizens more and more desperate for the future.
, Xiangjiang will also pay the price for it in the future.
Youde is not satisfied with Li Guangyu's speech. He hopes that these families in Xiangjiang can transform and invest in other industries, and the funds will still be in Xiangjiang.
It would be better for Li Guangyu to directly let these people leave Xiangjiang and explore markets in other regions. Without the large capital investment of these families and groups, how can Xiangjiang stimulate the economic development of Xiangjiang, and where will his own finance and taxation come from?
Fortunately, Li Guangyu's subsequent speech made him feel a little more comfortable. Li Guangyu said: "Where should we focus on the future development of Xiangjiang? I think, first, in terms of finance. As the third largest financial center in the world, Xiangjiang
This allows us in Xiangjiang to have great potential in this area."
"The second is to vigorously develop the service industry based on tourism consumption, including commercial centers and hotels, as well as the establishment of some entertainment centers so that tourists from all over the world can spend a happy holiday in Hong Kong."
"The third is what I call the trade industry. In this regard, we are fully able to position Xiangjiang as a trade transit station between mainland China and Northeast Asia. Our free trade policy in Xiangjiang makes us fully capable of doing this."
Li Guangyu finally concluded: "Due to various factors, it is impossible for Xiangjiang to become a city mainly focused on processing and production in the future. I hope that Xiangjiang can become the headquarters base of major groups in the world in Asia in the future. Xiangjiang's finance must continue to reform and explore.
potential and stabilize our position as the third largest financial center in the world. Only in this way can there be hope for the future of Xiangjiang and the quality of development of Xiangjiang can be improved. The real estate industry must not become the pillar industry of Xiangjiang, which will only destroy the future of Xiangjiang.
"
Some people below were very unhappy with Li Guangyu's words and felt that Li Guangyu would do anything to improve his status among Xiangjiang citizens.
When housing prices were rising, Li Guangyu, apart from saying he was not optimistic, was also developing Starlight City. On that project, the Li Group made a huge profit.
Unlike other groups in Xiangjiang, Starlight Real Estate Group started selling off-the-plan properties as soon as they started construction. The Li Group only started selling off-the-plan properties after the construction was completed. In the past two years, the property market price has more than doubled.
The profits here are enough to be described as terrifying.
At this time, Li Guangyu began to say that high housing prices in the real estate industry would be the main reason for destroying the future of Xiangjiang. Why didn't he stand up and say this when Starlight Real Estate Group sold its houses at high prices?
However, there is nothing they can do about Li Guangyu's shameless behavior. Once today's meeting is reported, Li Guangyu will only be praised by the citizens of Xiangjiang. The Li Group is indeed a conscientious enterprise that considers the citizens of Xiangjiang.
At this time, these people did not think about the three main development industries proposed by Li Guangyu for Hong Kong. Instead, they thought about the impact that Li Guangyu's remarks would have on them after they spread.
On the contrary, Youde seemed to have found the direction of Xiangjiang's future development after listening to Li Guangyu's remarks.
