0734 [The first shot of the real estate revolution! 】
"Mr. Shi, with all due respect, in my mind most of you Chinese are thieves and robbers! Do you know why? Because on the first day I came to Hong Kong to take office, I was deceived at the station! He used deceitful
The trick was to ask me to guess which of the three bowls contained melon seeds. I guessed wrong and lost all my money, including my wife's engagement ring! The person who lied to me was Chinese!" Brando showed a trace of disdain on his face.
Shi Zhijian glanced at the green scenery not far away, looked at Brando again, and said in a provocative tone: "Are you sure the person who lied to you is Chinese? Not Filipino, Vietnamese, or your British mutants?"
"What do you mean? My dear Shi! You are challenging my patience!" Brando suddenly stood up from his seat, with his hands on his hips and a cigar biting in his mouth, looking at Shi Zhijian with unruly eyes, "Now please
You leave! I hope I never see you!"
Not far away, the caddies, bodyguards and others saw Brando suddenly getting angry and didn't understand what happened.
A Brando bodyguard wanted to walk over, but Chen Huimin stopped him with his hand: "The bosses are talking, we'd better stay aside!"
Looking at Shi Zhijian, he also stood up from his seat at this time, opened his hands towards Brando, and asked confidently: "Is there something wrong? Did I make a mistake?"
Brando snorted coldly, "Shi Zhijian, right? I've seen too many people like you! There is no shortage of capitalists like you in Hong Kong. In order to curry favor with us senior British officials, they learned to play golf, go yachting, and even play horse racing.
Treat your hobby as yours! To be honest, it’s really despicable!”
Shi Zhijian smiled: "Yes, there are many Chinese businessmen who are very mean and will do all kinds of tricks to curry favor with people like you. But this time I see you, I just want to make friends with you!"
"I'm so sorry, I don't like a friend like you!" Brando held his cigar and said in a sarcastic tone: "Now, please leave! Immediately, immediately!"
Shi Zhijian shook his head, "Wow, it's so shameless! I got kicked out by you twice! It seems that what Inspector Lei said is right. For you ghost guys, you can't be honest!"
As he spoke, Shi Zhijian picked up the briefcase filled with one million Hong Kong dollars on the table, weighed it in his hand a few times, then looked at Brando with a smile: "Are you sure you want me to take this bag away, and immediately?"
Get out of here?"
"Of course! Why are you talking so much nonsense? I'm talking about your mother!" Brando has been in Hong Kong for a long time and has learned swear words very well.
Shi Zhijian shrugged, then dumped his briefcase on the table: "Are you going to stop looking at the gifts I brought you?"
Hurrah!
The rolled up bills fell out!
Brando looked disdainful at first. He was not a vegetarian even if he could sit in the position of director of the Urban Development Department. He usually asked for money, but he really didn't pay attention to a million like this! As far as Brando is concerned,
Those Chinese businessmen are all stupid piggies, and they will not be slaughtered until they are slaughtered!
"Don't waste any more time! I don't care about your money!" Brando bit his cigar, showing his white teeth, with an arrogant look on his face!
But immediately, his expression changed, and his eyes touched the pile of photos poured out of the briefcase!
He suddenly reached for the photos and looked at them carefully!
His face is getting uglier and uglier!
Brando stared at Shi Zhijian with a livid face: "Shi Zhijian, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean? This is what you see! How about the person who took the photo? Is the person who took the photo good?" Shi Zhijian also picked up a photo and took a look.
In the photo, the noble, arrogant Mr. Brando, who calls himself a gentleman of the British Empire, is hugging a black man and happily drinking wine to each other!
Even if that black man is a woman!
The problem is, he is a man!
That's right, that's a strong black muscular man!
As for other photos, there are some bolder and more explicit scenes, especially Brando's dress in the photos, which is even more makeup and pink, and also wearing a woman's skirt and black stockings. The most shocking thing is that there is also a picture of him dressed up as an American sexy
Photos of the goddess Marilyn Monroe!
In the photo, he is wearing a red dress, imitating Marilyn Monroe's classic look, covering the skirt blown by the wind with his hands, posing, and he can't move! Such a bold outfit is enough to make Brando's ancestors from Ireland.
Jumping out of the graveyard!
"Now, I heard that Mr. Brando is a very devout Catholic, and I also heard that your great-grandfather was once the largest slave owner in Ireland!" Shi Zhijian said slowly while holding the photo.
Brando's face became extremely ugly, from livid to pale, his eyes full of anger and fear.
Shi Zhijian threw the photo he was holding on the table, clapped his hands, as if he was afraid of getting his hands dirty, then put his hands behind his back and looked at Brando with a burning gaze: "Now, Mr. Brando, what do you think if these
If the photos are leaked, who should get out?"
Brando stopped talking, his eyes full of anger.
People in this era are very conservative! If this kind of thing is leaked, Brando's career will definitely be over! And he will be criticized by many people! In serious cases, he will be expelled from the family!
Who would have thought that Brando, who looks serious and stubborn on the surface, would be so wild and playful in private!
Looking at the smiling Shi Zhijian, he gritted his teeth for a long time and said, "What do you want?"
"How is it? I am a very kind person! I am also very open and tolerant!" Shi Zhijian raised the corner of his mouth, "If you don't mind, Mr. Brando, I would really like to make friends with you, what do you think?"
Brando's face looked full of confusion.
His bodyguard not far away didn't know what was going on here, but it looked like the Chinese businessman named Shi was threatening his owner, so the bodyguard was about to walk over again.
Chen Huimin stopped him, "I won't say it twice! Either stand there or step over me!"
"Really? Just you?" The bodyguard was not a vegetarian either, with a fierce look in his eyes.
Seeing that this is about to happen!
suddenly--
"Hahaha!" Brando let out a burst of laughter, stepped forward and patted Shi Zhijian on the shoulder very affectionately, "Oh God, dear Shi, what are you doing? I was with you just now.
Just kidding! We have always been friends, haven’t we? To be honest, you and I hit it off right away! Seeing you is like seeing my own brother! What you would never expect is that my brother in Ireland is about the same age as you, and I also like you
Play golf! By the way, he is as handsome as you! In the future, I also want to support him to become a star in Hollywood!"
"Really? That's great! Why don't we sit down and have a good talk!" Shi Zhijian accepted it and invited Brando to sit down with a smile.
Brando happily agreed, and the two sat down again. This time they were so enthusiastic about each other, they were like brothers! Chen Huimin and the bodyguard were stunned to see them.
…
"Dear Shi, I will help you with this favor!" Brando vowed, "Who told you and I to fall in love at first sight? But you also know that I am not the only one who has the final say in the huge Urban Construction Department! Everything needs to be managed, and more work is needed.
Lots of money and time!”
Shi Zhijian leaned on the chair, holding a cigarette in his mouth, squinting and said: "So how much does it cost and how long does it take?"
"Well!" Brando hesitated and said cautiously, "The money needed is at least one million. After all, urban construction, especially the Wharf port, is even more important! In terms of time, it also takes at least three
Months!”
Shi Zhijian flicked the ashes on the grass with his cigarette, "I can give you one million, but the time must be advanced!"
Brando smiled bitterly and said: "I don't have the final say! Let me tell you a big news. Now Shangfeng is preparing to focus on education. The main content of urban construction will be biased towards schools in the future - at least 13 schools will be built in Hong Kong.
Primary and secondary schools, five international-scale universities!”
Shi Zhijian was slightly taken aback by this. According to my memory, the education reform in Hong Kong in this era should start next year.
Hong Kong's current population is close to 4 million. The Hong Kong government has actively implemented various new policies to promote rapid economic development. In 1971, 70% of households in Hong Kong owned a TV set. The popularity of TV sets means that information is developed, and Hong Kong people are more likely to absorb the world.
Knowledge from all over the place.
At the same time, the influx of a large number of illiterate labor force into Hong Kong has become an important obstacle to economic development.
In the 1960s, many people in Hong Kong lived a difficult life. How did the children of the poor live? They were street children and played on the streets. They worked as child laborers and helped their families to supplement their income in the factory area. Those who could go to school were on the open-air rooftop.
School is in session.
It was not until 1971, the next year, that their fate changed. In this year, the government launched six years of free education, and all public and aided primary schools were free of charge! The government issued a compulsory enrollment order, and parents had to enroll children aged between six and twelve.
Send your children to school. Those who violate the order will be fined up to HK$500 and jailed for three months!
Since then, children in Hong Kong, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, have received at least basic education at primary school level.
Corresponding to this is the massive construction of various schools in Hong Kong. For example, in April this year, the Hong Kong government will issue an order agreeing to the establishment of the "Hong Kong Polytechnic", and the Secretary for Education has also embarked on reforms to adapt to the large-scale recruitment of various schools to be built in the future.
Teacher talents.
But according to Brando's words, Hong Kong's education reform has already begun to take action. In the future, Hong Kong's hottest real estate industry will be ignited from school construction!
Shi Zhijian had countless thoughts flashing through his mind. He originally planned to start entering Hong Kong real estate this year, and the Wharf Port construction was his first move! Now it seems that the timing is just right! If he can successfully win the Wharf Port construction
, then it will demonstrate its strength in urban construction, and then it will be qualified to bid for the Hong Kong government’s school construction!
In this era, it is actually not easy for ordinary people to make money, especially because many of those who need houses are refugees who have escaped. Where do they have money? This is why Hong Kong's real estate industry has been weak from 1964 to the present.
Those real estate tycoons also know that it will not work no matter how crazy they are to extract wool from the common people. At the very least, they must rest and recuperate so that these "wool" can grow long.
In comparison, it is much easier to win over government urban construction projects and gain favor from the British Hong Kong government!
The Hong Kong government is rich!
I won’t default on my debt!
The most important thing is to build a good relationship and win bigger projects in the future!
When Shi Zhijian thought of this, he already had a calculation in his mind. At present, he must win the urban construction of Wharf. This is his first shot at the real estate revolution. If he doesn't succeed, he will be punished!
"Dear Mr. Brando, thank you for your advice to me. In fact, I am also very concerned about education! In the future, I will inevitably contribute to education, donate money, invest in construction for free, etc. Of course, judging from the current situation, I
We still need to build the Wharf port first! So please issue the approval document as soon as possible and let me start construction!"
Brando did not expect that Shi Zhijian was so ambitious. He wanted to get involved in the school construction pie before the Wharf Port was completed! That was something that required hundreds of millions of capital to accomplish!
"You are right! I will do my best to do it for you as soon as possible!" Brando said, "But there is one thing I still have to remind you!"
"What is it, dear friend?"
"Dear Shi, you currently only have one project, which is the 'Meteor Garden' villa complex constructed by Shinhwa Real Estate. For Shangfeng, we don't have enough construction experience!"
Shi Zhijian smiled, bent down and gently crushed the cigarette that was about to burn to the butt in the ashtray, stood up slightly and looked at Brando with sharp eyes and said: "Have you forgotten, dear Mr. Brando, I just said
We just acquired the Ritchie Construction Company of the Ritchie family! If you remember correctly, Ritchie Construction has had construction capabilities for fifteen years and has also handled many successful construction projects, such as the construction of Fen Kei Bay on Hong Kong Island and the transportation on outlying islands.
Hydropower construction, as well as the construction of Tuen Mun New Town in the New Territories, and the construction of Wonder Department Store in Kowloon District!"
Brando said: "Of course I know this! I also know that you bought Ritchie Construction with 30 million after its stock plummeted! Now Ritchie Construction's stock is still plummeting and is about to be delisted from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
!Sorry, I didn’t mean to say this, but it’s all true, isn’t it?”
What Brando said is correct. The current situation of Ritchie Construction is not very good, and it can even be said to be in danger.
The reason is that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is a Western stock trading platform controlled by the British Hong Kong government. If Chinese businessmen want to raise funds by listing their companies, they must be subject to this Hong Kong Stock Exchange. They will use various excuses to review
Are you able to qualify for listing.
Lee Zhaotian previously snatched Wharf from Jardine Matheson, a British-owned company, and merged Wharf into Lee's Construction Company.
Later, Lee Zhaotian mortgaged Lee's Construction Company to HSBC, and Shi Zhijian "picked up" this Lee's Construction Company from HSBC!
For those ghost guys, they are full of envy, jealousy and hatred towards Shi Zhijian! Of course, they don’t want Ritchie Construction to turn around from the stock market again. It is best to delist directly and let Shi Zhijian lose a lot of money!
