On February 17, when the U.S. dollar fell to 180 points against the Japanese yen, Lin Zuhui decided to liquidate the funds invested by Wanhui Media, making a profit of 60 million and withdrawing 110 million of funds.
Although USD/JPY can fall below 170 points in the first half of this year, Wanhui Media needs money now, and there is no need to wait any longer; what's more, it cannot give people the feeling of predicting the future.
It was sold to the lowest point.
The four giants of Wanhui Media came to Lin Zuhui's office, with happiness and respect on their faces.
The four giants are Long Jingchang, general manager and president of Tiantian Daily, Liang Guanhui, editor-in-chief, Zhao Han, who is in charge of finance, and Chen Cheng, editor-in-chief of Tiantian Daily.
Lin Zuhui first told everyone an amazing news: "The company invested in foreign exchange and has now closed the position, with a total profit of 60 million and a withdrawal of 110 million."
Except for Zhao Han and Long Jingchang, the four giants were all shocked. Some time ago, they said they had only earned 20 to 30 million yuan, but they did not expect that they had already earned 60 million yuan.
"The boss is truly a versatile man. He is a master in real estate, finance, and media management!" Chen Chengcheng, who had just joined the giant, immediately flattered him.
The other three are not to be outdone, and this is all thanks to the boss!
A profit of 60 million yuan is already almost a year's profit of Sing Tao Group and Ming Pao Group.
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Director Zhao, spread this news to make our opponents scared and let them understand that we can also increase the upgrade of "Tian Tian Daily" at any time!"
Zhao Han said excitedly: "Yes, boss! Not only will our opponents be frightened, we can also make investors more confident in Wanhui Media. The stock price will naturally rise, and the market value of 600 million is just around the corner."
Recently, everyone in the newspaper industry has become insecure and has begun to discuss countermeasures. It turns out that they are basically in a state of being beaten. Even if they are willing to spend 50 million, the prime advertising time of the TV station has been contracted by "Tiantian Daily".
Others have signed contracts that prohibit advertising in the same industry during the same period.
Moreover, no one is willing to compete financially with "Tiantian Daily".
But Lin Zuhui is different. In his opinion, there is endless money in the stock market, and he can throw it at the daily newspaper industry in order to increase his influence.
In half a year, he can call the Governor's Office directly, and he can let the government forces in the mainland win over him. This is his original intention of running a media.
"So, as long as you run a good newspaper and surpass the "Oriental Daily", let alone 50 million, even 100 million, I will take it! Look for your own shortcomings and catch up."
"Oriental Daily" is supported by Taiwan Island, and "Tiantian Daily" is also supported by Xinshe News Agency. Some of the news sources for "Tiantian Daily" are provided by Xinshe News Agency.
Of course, in order to forge the iron, you still need to be strong. "Tiantian Daily" is also strengthening its backbone reporters, the number of overseas reporters, etc.
Then Lin Zuhui said: "The funds withdrawn this time will not be used by Tiantian Daily for the time being, and our loan term is one year, so there is no need to rush to repay the loan. So I plan to buy the News Building of Sing Tao Group
, as our headquarters; and then purchase Chai Wan Bumrun Industrial Center to establish our printing factory base."
Although Wanhui Media now has Tiantian color printing, its scale is not large and the equipment is not good enough to print its three magazines.
Big deal!
The four of them thought at the same time that they all knew about Lin Zuhui's new era real estate development history, but they did not expect that Wanhui Media could be so powerful.
Long Jingchang said tentatively: "Boss, the Causeway Bay News Building is the headquarters of Sing Tao Group. Hu Xian may not be willing to sell it!"
Lin Zuhui showed a confident smile and said slowly: "Hu Xian has been keen on land and real estate speculation since last year. As long as the price is reasonable, she will definitely sell it. What's more, since the signing of the contract between China and Britain, Hu Xian has been worried about what will happen to the other side.
I won’t settle Hu Wenhu’s old account (being misunderstood as a traitor), I think she may have already engaged in capital trafficking.”
His confidence is not in these analyses, but in his previous life, Huang Yulang, who bought the News Building in early 1987, spending a total of 70 million. Not only that, Huang Yulang also traveled across the ocean and bought the "News Building" from the Hu family in Xingdao.
Sin Chew Daily also spent 70 million.
Several people nodded, thinking that this matter could be discussed!
As for the company's 110 million loan debt, they have no worries at all, because after the company bought the News Building, its fixed assets exceeded the loan; what's more, according to the boss's methods, the company will also raise funds through rights issues in the future, and the funds will not be available at all.
It may even continue to expand this year, otherwise why would the boss care so much about the stock price!
"Director Zhao, it's up to you to contact Hu Xian first. The price can be easily negotiated!"
"Yes, boss!"
.......
Oriental Press.
The four brothers of the Ma family are at a loss to discuss countermeasures. It turns out that since "Tiantian Daily" launched a large-scale advertising campaign, the sales of "Oriental Daily" have dropped sharply by 10,000 copies, and the current sales volume has reached 200,000 copies.
"This star really wants to retire"
However, the sales volume of "Tian Tian Daily" had already risen to 150,000 copies before the upgrade. According to this trend, the upgraded "Tian Tian Daily" may really reach 180,000 copies.
"This person aspires to be a media tycoon. It can be seen as early as the listing of Wanhui Media. It is not the reason why our Oriental Daily reported gossip about him." Ma Chengkun said.
Lame Ma slandered in his heart: "MD, you three are brothers, and I am a cousin, so go and beg someone to let me go."
It turns out that Ma Chengkun, Ma Chengfa, and Ma Chengcai are Ma Xizhen's sons, and Cripple Ma is Ma Xiru's son. Therefore, in order to prevent Lin Zuhui from filming "Four Families: Brothers and Dragons", everyone unanimously pushed Cripple Ma to plead for mercy to avoid social impact.
Ma Chengfa said: "For the current plan, we can't sit still and wait for death. We should also organize activities and use the name of the 17th anniversary to distribute prizes in newspapers, at least 5 million. We can't lose to "Tiantian Daily"!
"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ma Chengcai echoed: "It makes sense, we saved 50 million, but we cannot save these 5 million."
Ma Chengkun said immediately: "Okay, let's do it this way. If we brothers work together, we can defeat gold!"
Ten thousand horses are floating in the heart of the lame horse, is this excluding me?
"Oriental Daily" decided to give out large prizes in March, and many newspapers joined the battle. After all, if they didn't join, they would have to wait for the market to be taken away.
The citizens of Xiangjiang never dreamed that if they bought a newspaper for a few yuan, they would have a chance to win a house or a car, and they immediately became excited.
.....
Big news in the media world: Wanhui Media made a non-recurring profit from foreign exchange investment, with a net profit of 60 million after closing the position.
Immediately, it caused great repercussions in Xiangjiang.
Daxia Jin: Is he running a newspaper or playing a capital game?
Hu Xian: I didn’t expect that I’m not the only one who doesn’t do his job properly. I can make more money by speculating in land and real estate than by running a newspaper!
Ma Jia: What a world, this is no more profitable than selling white powder!
Of course, the most intense reaction was from stocks. Wanhui Media's market value soon exceeded 550 million, and the market outlook is strong.
...
Hu Xian really intended to sell the News Building, and Zhao Han sent by Lin Zuhui came back with good news!
Lin Zuhui decided to go to the News Building on King's Road in person to discuss the transaction with Hu Xian face to face.
The News Building has a total of 10 floors and a rentable area of 85,000 square feet. Because it is an old-fashioned office building, the current rent is only 10 yuan per square foot per month.
What Lin Zuhui is looking for is that it can be rebuilt in the future, allowing him to instantly have another building to collect rents. From his perspective as a real estate developer, the rebuilt News Building can have 22 to 28 floors, with a rent-collecting area of up to 250,000 square meters.
About feet.
For such a building, it is very comfortable to collect rent, and its value may reach billions in the future.
Lin Zuhui came to Hu Xian's office. It was the first time that the two met, but they must have heard of each other. Hu Xian was short in stature and looked to be in her fifties. This made Lin Zuhui curious about whether she had ever had a man!
Of course, you can just be curious about this!
After a few simple chats, Lin Zuhui went straight to the topic: "Ms. Hu, according to the current real estate price, the market value of the News Building is around 60 million! Therefore, my quotation is also 60 million."
This is just a tentative offer. Lin Zuhui is willing to buy a building worth 70 million in one year even if it costs 70 million now. After all, others are not stupid and know that real estate will appreciate in value and cannot be traded easily.
Sure enough, Hu Xian refused without hesitation: "I won't sell it to you at a price of 60 million. Since Lin Sheng is in the real estate business, he should be aware of the real estate market. The price I will sell it in a year will be higher."
.”
"What is Ms. Hu's opinion?" Lin Zuhui asked tentatively.
Hu Xian said wisely: "Since Lin Sheng came here in person, he must be determined to buy it. Naturally, you will submit the quotation. If it is suitable, I will sell it. If it is not suitable, we will keep it."
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Ms. Hu is indeed a master who made a lot of money from the real estate speculation last year! However, when we purchased the News Building, we hoped to push it for reconstruction. Considering the subsequent construction costs, we are willing to pay at most
65 million.”
The old buildings on the island are already at a price but no market. In fact, as long as there is profit, Lin Zuhui will not care about a few more million. Today, even if it is 70 million, he will agree.
Hu Xian was moved this time, but she would not let Lin Zuhui off easily. She could see that Lin Zuhui really wanted the News Building. Could it be that he wanted to use the News Building deal to satisfy himself that he had defeated "Sing Tao Daily".
Thinking of this, Hu Xian felt that Lin Zuhui was somewhat arrogant, but she put interests first. She had recently taken a liking to some properties in Australia and happened to sell the News Building to buy them.
"68 million" Hu Xian asked a sky-high price.
"Everyone takes a step back. How about 66 million? This price is already a premium of more than 110%."
Hu Xian finally decided to sell it for 66 million. She was very satisfied with this price. After all, as Lin Zuhui said, it was already 10% higher than the market price.
After the deal was concluded, the two did not chat too much. After all, they were competitors.
If it were not for profit, it would be impossible to sit together.
...
Soon, news broke again in the media industry: Wanhui Media purchased the News Building of the Sing Tao Group for 66 million, and purchased the Chai Wan Bumrun Industrial Center as a printing factory for 9 million.
For a time, everyone was impressed by Wanhui Media's arrogance and its ability to spend money.
In just two months, 200 million has been spent, including 120 million for "Tiantian Daily", 066 million for News Building, and 09 million for Bumrungrad Center, a total of 195 million.
Before Wanhui Media acquired Tiantian Daily, it was just a publishing house with an annual profit of less than 40 million.
.......
.......
Late February.
Since the listing of Wanhui Media, although Lin Zuhui's focus is still on new era real estate, he has obviously visited Wanhui Media a lot.
Fortunately, he is full of energy. As the chairman of two listed companies, he still feels energetic and occasionally cares about - DreamWorks Movies and Fashion Retail.
You are young, you can’t make less money while having fun!
Money is a man's courage. As long as he has money, world-class actresses will be attacked by his spears and cannons.
"boss!"
When Lin Zuhui walked into the conference room of Wanhui Media, a group of middle and high-level executives greeted him one after another with fanaticism in their eyes. With an ambitious boss, everyone will naturally work hard. And Wanhui Media is a rising media empire.
Everyone's status will naturally improve in the future.
Lin Zuhui sat in his seat and announced the start of the meeting.
"Jason, how is the situation in the advertising department of your "Tiantian Daily"?" Lin Zuhui asked by name.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jason is not a foreigner, but a Chinese. However, people in Xiangjiang all have English names, and Li Jiaxin even had a Chinese name when she was in middle school.
"Boss, our gambling agreement has been warmly welcomed by advertisers. Everyone has expressed their willingness to cooperate. The upgraded "Tiantian Daily" advertising revenue will double... Of course, these must be based on our
The sales volume is stable at more than 180,000 copies!" Jason reported the situation carefully.
"Okay, since we dare to sign a betting agreement, we must have confidence in sales volume!"
Lin Zuhui held a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other, and held the meeting seriously.
"Levi, where are the people in your distribution department, are you ready?"
"Boss, our plan has been formulated and is still being kept secret. We will try to catch all newspapers off guard!"
Lin Zuhui nodded. The reason for keeping it secret is because the upgraded "Tian Tian Daily" will cause blockage from all newspaper colleagues. Then the Press Association will intervene and formulate a resolution to prevent "Tian Tian Daily" from selling at a disguised price.
Because the price of newspapers in Xiangjiang is unified, currently 2.5 yuan, Lin Zuhui remembers that it was 5 yuan in 1994.
Although "Tian Tian Daily" will be besieged by peers and intervened by the newspaper association, these are nothing; because what Lin Zuhui wants is to make a time difference. According to his estimate, "Tian Tian Daily" can at least play
A disguised price reduction for half a month, maybe even for a month.
Once everyone unites and makes a resolution through the Press Association, his strategy will have long been successful.
As for breaking the law?
Of course it’s not illegal!
The Press Association is unofficial, and it's not like Tiantian Daily doesn't abide by your decisions. If you make them, I will abide by them.
As for offending colleagues, TMD there are reasons for colleagues to be friends, and everyone wants you to die!
It was not Lin Zuhui who came up with this trick, but the traitor Li Han!
In the previous life, "Apple Poison News" suffered a loss of 60 million in the first month because of disguised price reductions and ceded profits to general agents and retailers. Once the retailers made a profit, they would desperately sell to the public. His plan was ignored.
It was successful - "Apple Poison News" was at its peak when it debuted.
Of course, later the "Oriental Daily" happened, and "Sing Pao" took the lead in a price war, selling a five-yuan newspaper for two yuan, and killed a number of tabloids.
Then, Lin Zuhui reported on the work one by one. He had an excellent memory and quickly started the business, which amazed everyone.
After the reporting work was over, Lin Zuhui arranged for work again.
"Director Zhao, we have settled the payment for the News Building. If you urge the Sing Tao Group to move out as soon as possible, give them a deadline of one month!" After Lin Zuhui said this, he felt very happy.
He paid at least 5 million for the News Building (current price), and it is currently worth just over 60 million. Hu Xian just wanted to kill himself because he was eager to trade; although Lin Zuhui was happy to be ripped off, if he could
Naturally, he will not let go of revenge.
Before signing the contract, Lin Zuhui only promised to give Sing Tao Group time to vacate, but did not promise a specific time. Now that the contract is signed, everything is not decided by him.
"Okay, one month is already our generosity, I will urge them to move out on time!" Zhao Han happily accepted the task.
We are all civilized people and will not get into fights. If the Sing Tao Group does not move out within a month, the police will move out.
How could all the senior executives in the conference room not know that the boss was trying to deal with Hu Xian? Who told Sing Tao Group to sell it so expensively?
If you mess with me, I'll mess with you, it's fair to everyone!
Lin Zuhui asked again: "How much liquidity does the company still have on its account?"
Zhao Han replied: "There are still more than 40 million!"
Lin Zuhui nodded. Of the 110 million withdrawn this time, only 75 million was spent, with 35 million left. The three books owned by the company are all cash cows, so it is normal to have earned more than 5 million in the past two years.
"Chief Editor Liang!"
"boss!"
As the first person to follow Lin Zuhui, Liang Guanhui has now become the editor-in-chief of the entire Wanhui Media and part-time editor-in-chief of "Men's Gang"; he even has the right to make suggestions and interfere with the content of "Tian Tian Daily", and has won Lin Zuhui's trust.
"Let's discuss the acquisition of "Fresh Weekly" and report any progress to me in a timely manner!"
"Okay, boss!"
Lin Zuhui finally decided to enter Bagua Weekly, because being in the media cannot avoid this.
Ming Pao Group has "Ming Pao Weekly", Oriental Newspapers has "Oriental World", and later "East Weekly", Zheng Jinghan will also produce the gossip weekly "Sunday Weekly" in the future.
Given the conflicts between Lin Zuhui, the Ma family, and Zheng Jinghan, if he had not entered this industry, he would not have stood there and been beaten in the future!
Therefore, he decided to acquire "Fresh Weekly" to use it as his own weapon.
Currently, "Fresh Weekly" is the third largest gossip weekly in Hong Kong, second only to "Ming Pao Weekly" and "Oriental World". Because this market has not been fully developed, "Fresh Weekly" is not very valuable, it is estimated to be more than 2,000
You can get it if you want.
Although Lin Zuhui is interested in Ming Pao Group, the variables are too big after all, and there are still four or five years to go. Instead of doing this, he should first acquire a copy of "Fresh Weekly".
The gossip weeklies of this era are not so annoying because there are no paparazzi traps yet. On the contrary, some celebrities particularly like the gossip weeklies and wish they had more exposure.
"Disband!"
Following the order, the entire Wanhui Media started to run at high speed like a clockwork machine.
Currently, Wanhui Media's salary is the highest (on average) in Hong Kong media, and it is also the company that all employees think has the most future.
To paraphrase a passage from Huang Yulang in his previous life: "Hu Xian's newspaper group is under the protection of her father. Hu Wenhu's descendants are just mediocre. They lost a news building and Malaysia lost a newspaper; Jin Daxia, the management is miserable.
It took decades to build a newspaper group. It only took the Yulang Empire less than a year to be on an equal footing with them."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now it’s Lin Zuhui’s turn to say this, of course from his heart!
Of course, Lin Zuhui had one thing in mind, that is, he must not acquire the Malay Sin Chew Daily. In October 1987, this newspaper was closed down by the Malaysian government.
Of course, later, through the efforts of the top management, it was reopened and it got better and better.
Lin Zuhui did not need to acquire it in advance, so he let Huang Yulang take on this problem, because Lin Zuhui had even spied on the entire Yulang Group.
To put it simply, when you eat by yourself, you have to bring the pot with you!
...
Sing Tao Group.
But when Hu Xian heard that Wanhui Media ordered Sing Tao Group to move out within one month, he immediately became angry and cursed: "You are indeed a little fox!"
However, she did not dare to shirk, and quickly made preparations to move out to avoid being thrown out of the Sing Tao Group.
Naturally, there was no way to hide this from some media at this time, and Hu Xian soon became a joke in the industry!
The dignified Xingdao Group, the largest newspaper group in Hong Kong, was kicked out of the office building by a newly emerged media group.
Others described Lin Zuhui as a person who "doesn't take revenge overnight".
...
"What, you want Cai Ning to help you? My silly woman, do you know what that means?" Lin Zuhui couldn't understand Guan Jiahui more and more. This woman seemed different from the one he knew in his previous life.
Now she actually proposed to let Cai Ning join, which means she will join the fashion empire in the future.
"I know that if Cai Ning comes to help me, it means that the fashion empire you mentioned will also have her share in the future. I have thought about this problem, but I think: First of all, this fashion empire has not yet affected me.
Secondly, I need someone as capable and trustworthy as Cai Ning to help me; finally, I am willing to share my career with her, just as I am willing to serve you with her."
Lin Zuhui paced back and forth in the room, his expression seemed to be stimulated, and he muttered: "Oh my god, what is going on in this world! Oh my god, I don't want to believe this is true!"
For a moment, Guan Jiahui was frightened, and she quickly apologized: "Ah Hui, don't scare me, why don't I just listen to you? I'm just asking you, I haven't made a decision yet, I haven't told Cai Ning yet. You
Don't scare me, please!"
Lin Zuhui suddenly came to Guan Jiahui, held her shoulders with both hands, and said: "Don't be afraid, I'm just happy!"
Guan Jiahui breathed a sigh of relief and gave Lin Zuhui a charming eye roll. This man had scared her to death just now.
Lin Zuhui continued: "I can't believe that you two can really be as close as sisters. You know, King D's four concubines are still having conflicts!"
Guan Jiahui said quietly: "Although you are always King D's, you seem to recognize him very much! In fact, I am sure that if King D were as young as you, all women would choose you!"
Lin Zuhui asked: "Do you have to have sex before you make a choice?"
"You're so annoying! No, no, no! It's because you seem to have a kind of charm that makes women unable to put it in words. They feel like you don't belong to this era. Your thoughts, your confidence, your words and deeds are all very unique.
A unique charm!”
Lin Zuhui was shocked. This woman's intuition was so terrible.
His ideas are very open, belonging to the free era of the 21st century, and have eliminated feudal ideas (and are feudal enough in some aspects);
He is always confident and optimistic because he knows the future and he has a strong body;
As for his words and deeds, every move is natural and never artificial. He himself cannot find this advantage, but women always say that he is very temperamental and charming (isn't he talking about you, yes, you people who read books)
!).
"Of course, your body is indeed a human pervert. Of course we women would like to have such a man!" Guan Jiahui said endearingly.
Recently, she has solved a knot in her mind, that is, she has always thought that Lin Zuhui disliked her for being married, and it was not the first time, so he would not marry her.
Through the conversation with Cai Ning, she learned that even for a first-time girl like Cai Ning, who was highly educated, this man did not choose to be his first wife.
From the beginning, this man fell in love with Wang Lingyin, who was only 16 years old, and then groomed her to become his first wife. The first wife he required must be a girl like himself who can accept his romantic style, and secondly, she must be beautiful.
Various factors such as good family background and so on.
To be honest, Guan Jiahui wants to meet Wang Lingyin, she is her future 'eldest sister'!
After getting excited, Lin Zuhui hugged Guan Jiahui and sat on the sofa, saying: "Since you two women can do this, I will give you a fortune. Your fashion empire will develop into a comprehensive group.
I will never treat you and my children badly."
Only then did Lin Zuhui realize that the more wealth the better, as long as these women don't want to fight for it.
"That's pretty much it. Don't think that I really don't love money!" Guan Jiahui said playfully.
Yes, there are women who don't love money. The reason why Guan Jiahui was willing to let Cai Ning join was because she saw that Cai Ning seemed to be very 'loyal' to her. Guan Jiahui wanted to win over such a sister so that she could form a clique in the future;
In addition, Cai Ning's abilities are very good and can help her career.
And Lin Zuhui knows Cai Ning, she is a "flattery" and "a good person". If she were to meet Wang Lingyin, she would definitely be like the maids in ancient times who served their mistresses.
It can even be said that Cai Ning is a universal glue and can be combined with Lin Zuhui's woman.
If this kind of woman is scheming, she must be very scary, but Lin Zuhui understands human nature, and Cai Ning is really good-tempered.
Lin Zuhui quickly thought of how to help Guan Jiahui and Cai Ning develop their fashion empire, and guided them to take loans to develop companies and purchase properties; when the time came, they could develop inland and overseas.
With Lin Zuhui's vision, it may not be impossible to achieve assets worth tens of billions in the future.
