Chapter 344 [The First Luxury Mansion in Xiangjiang]
June 23, Friday.
Lin Zuhui personally sealed the bidding document for the "Garden Road King", stamped it with his seal, and handed it to Liang Zhenxun.
"Hand it over! We'll be ready to celebrate on Monday!"
Liang Zhenxun said with a smile: "We must have won the bid. The market situation is so bad now. Of the six consortiums that participated in the bid, only Cheung Kong and Sun Hung Kai are some threats. However, one of these two consortiums is not keen on commercial projects, and the other is keen on building shopping malls in new towns.
(Sun Hung Kai) will not give too high a price!”
Lin Zuhui smiled, no one would have thought that in his previous life, Eagle King, a medium-sized real estate company that was on the verge of bankruptcy in 1983, picked up the leak, and the price was only 2.7 billion yuan.
He wanted to set the price at 3 billion several times, but he did not dare to be careless, lest he lose Jingzhou.
Therefore, in the end he firmly gave 3.099 billion!
"In my eyes, they are all my rivals! Likewise, they will also regard me as their rival! Therefore, the competition between us will become more and more intense in the future. However, the further back in time, the greater the strength gap between them and us.
The bigger they get, in the end they will either cooperate with us or join forces. The real estate prospects in Xiangjiang are very good, but in the end a large number of small and medium-sized real estate companies will be eliminated, forming a monopoly situation of large real estate companies." Lin Zuhui made no secret of his ambitions.
Liang Zhenxun was a little shocked. Major real estate developers were adjusting their strategies one after another, but his boss seemed to have seen a gold mine. Could it be that real estate will really recover soon?
Many people are saying that Xiangjiang will become a city of poor people. Aren’t the bosses worried?
"The boss' grasp of the general trend is unmatched by any real estate company, so the company strategically suppressed them!" Liang Zhenxun said with admiration. At this time, he also believed that Xiangjiang Real Estate would recover soon.
After Liang Zhenxun left, Lin Zuhui was in a very good mood, he was not nervous at all!
Looking at the stocks on the computer, his mood became even more beautiful. The Hang Seng Index was 2250 points, which was still a good opportunity to buy. And of his personal capital of 3 billion, he had already bought more than 2 billion. He expected to buy all of them in early July.
Problem.
At this time, he personally and his company did not immediately buy real estate at low prices. After all, they could not react too quickly and give people a strong feeling, thus affecting history.
Starting to hunt for the bottom next week, real estate developers are already very responsive.
Real estate companies like Sun Hung Kai that like to hunt for bargains will probably not be able to react until at least October. After all, they are not time travellers, and they will more or less analyze various forms before making decisions.
...
Great Eagle Properties.
Father and son Luo Yingshi and Luo Jiarui are also determining the final price. They regard New Era Group as their biggest rival, so they have been unsure of the price.
Luo Yingshi said in a deep voice: "New Era Group has not carried out any anti-market behavior recently, which shows that their investment strategy has become cautious. I see, we can beat everyone by setting a price of 2.78 billion yuan."
Luo Jiarui thought for a while and said: "To be sure, I think we should give 2.88 billion! After all, the market share price is between 2.5 and 3 billion. Of course, this is the previous share price, and the new share price is a bit lower."
Luo Yingshi looked at his son's expression of eagerness for victory and nodded secretly.
Eagle King almost went bankrupt five years ago, and his other son Luo Xurui wanted to stand on his own again, so he quickly summoned his third son Luo Jiarui, who is a medical practitioner in the United States, to take over the job. The third son lived up to his expectations and spent five years to help him develop Eagle King again. , even if real estate prices are lowered this year, Great Eagle may still reach a profit of more than 800 million.
"Okay, it's foolproof, an extra 100 million is an extra 100 million!"
The father and son carefully began to make and seal the tender documents, and then Luo Jiarui delivered the tender documents in person.
...
Cheung Kong Industries.
Li Chaoren is also hesitant. He really wants to defeat Lin Zuhui once. After all, he has been defeated twice by Lin Zuhui and lost two large housing projects.
Of course, judging from the current situation in Hong Kong, it is not necessarily a loss. He is not sure when the real estate industry will recover, although he is optimistic about the future of Hong Kong. If it were like what happened in 1982, real estate prices would have been sluggish for three years and then rose back to the peak price in 1981. , it took a full five years.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Chaoren finally showed a self-deprecating smile and whispered:
"How can I compete with a young man? He is just developing in a small place like Xiangjiang, while I have already set my sights on the whole world! The real estate market is so bad now. If the 'Garden Road Land King' had a price tag of 3 billion, it would be a sure win. However, As a result, Changshi will need a full investment of 6 billion in this project alone."
"Now that foreign capital is withdrawing from Hong Kong, office buildings are bound to slump for a long time. The price is so high, it is very uneconomical!"
"Forget it, let's bid 2.6 billion yuan and see if we can find out!"
In the end, Li Chaoren seemed to relax his heart and showed a smile.
In his opinion, although Lin Zuhui has developed rapidly, his international investment ability is really poor, so he does not need to spend too much effort on competition. After all, it is easy to cause losses to both parties.
...
Six real estate consortiums submitted bids one after another on Friday. Obviously, everyone wants to 'buy the dip' and 'pick up the slack'.
You know, this piece of land was valued by experts at 5 billion to 5.5 billion in the first quarter. If it hadn't plummeted, the Hong Kong government would definitely have come to auction it, and 5 billion would definitely be no problem. After all, in January, the Wan Chai land king All were auctioned for 3.5 billion.
In the afternoon of that day, Lin Zuhui came to the office of HSBC's head coach Pu Weishi.
The reason why Lin Zuhui is today is definitely not the result of the support of any bank, but that he himself is the favorite in the eyes of bankers;
But if you want to say which bank supports the most, it is not HSBC, but Wan Guo Baotong Bank.
Of course, as HSBC is Hong Kong’s ‘quasi central bank’, Lin Zuhui also has a lot of loan business here, second only to Wan Guo Baotong.
With Lin Zuhui's current wealth level and social status, he does not need to work as hard to please HSBC as Li Huanggua did back then (having said that, if it was Lin Zuhui back then, he would seem to be able to please). He is now on the same level as HSBC Taipan big shot.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Mr. Lin is here, isn't he here to repay the loan?" Pu Weishi said humorously.
Lin Zuhui smiled and said: "Why, HSBC is worried that I will also run away?"
Pu Wei Shi looked at Lin Zuhui, and then said: "Looking at Mr. Lin, he seems to have full confidence in the investment in Xiangjiang and is not at all panicked by the external environment."
Undoubtedly, New Era Group and Chinese Land are both "big debtors" in Xiangjiang, but so far no bank has gone to press for debts (they can let you pay them back even if they are not due). Unless a bank wants to withdraw from Xiangjiang, I'm afraid
Then I foolishly went to these two companies to collect debts.
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "While others are scared, I am greedy. Now is the time to purchase goods. How could I give up such a God-given opportunity?"
Puisi suddenly hesitated. He now knew that Lin Zuhui was here to borrow money, but New Era Group's debt was so high, and he also knew that Lin Zuhui's personal visit must be for a large-scale loan.
However, there is business that must be done, so Pu Weishi said cautiously: "Then Mr. Lin is here just to borrow money. The funds must be very large!"
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "The one who dares to make large loans at this time must be Hong Kong's 'quasi central bank' HSBC. Because your business is in Hong Kong, even if you move your headquarters to the UK, you still cannot do without Hong Kong.
We are eager to return to the mainland and start business. Therefore, I hope you, HSBC Bank, will lend us 3 billion yuan. We need to start real estate activities."
Pulaus opened his eyes wide. A loan of HK$3 billion is a large loan for any World Bank. If this person said it so easily, doesn't he know that bankers will consider the risks?
At that time, the Carining Group caused a big loss to HSBC!
Puisi said: "We do not doubt New Era Group's repayment ability, but this loan is too large. Mr. Lin should combine loans from multiple banks."
Lin Zuhui immediately said: "At this time, bankers began to be conservative, so I came to HSBC to avoid trouble! Before the collapse, you came to our company to investigate, and you should understand that the cash flow on our account is enough to repay all loans.
Therefore, during this crash, we suffered almost no direct losses. If we had purchased a large amount of cheap land in a timely manner, we would have been able to obtain higher profits in the 1990s."
Puisi thought for a while and nodded seriously. New Era Group indeed has great potential.
He also knew that even without a loan from HSBC, others could buy a large amount of land immediately.
If you refuse, you will inevitably lose a big business and a high-quality customer.
"Okay, I agree to this loan. However, we need to send someone to review your company's financial situation again!"
"There is no problem. Our company's finances are very transparent! Including our investment in foreign exchange, everything is open to the public!"
When it came to foreign exchange, Puisi remembered that this man was not only a real estate developer, but also a financial genius. He worked in foreign exchange at HSBC and made a lot of money.
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Zuhui couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Puisi, are you willing to part with your Yunfeng residence on the top of Gefu Mountain? I can buy it at a premium!"
Pu Weishi was stunned. He must have loved real estate too much. He didn't release any news about the sale, but he took the initiative to ask about it.
"How does Mr. Lin know that I am willing to sell?"
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Pu Weishi doesn't like luxury life, so I'll try to ask!"
He is just talking nonsense, and it is impossible for Puisi to deny this point of view anyway.
As expected, Pu Weishi didn't care, but said with a smile: "How much does Mr. Lin plan to pay to buy our Yunfeng Residence?"
There's drama!
Lin Zuhui began to think about the quotation issue.
Yunfengju is located on the top of Mount Gofu. It has a geographical advantage and is unanimously praised by Hong Kong's Feng Shui masters as the "No. 1 dragon". It is said that the Fengshui here is the best in Hong Kong. If you live here, you are either rich or expensive. Therefore, Yunfengju
Peak Residence is also known as the "King of Buildings" and is known as "the most luxurious house in Hong Kong" (this thing can be crowned on many villas). It covers an area of nearly 44,000 square feet and has been home to many executives from HSBC.
If you want to live in the "Emperor Building", it depends on whether you win or not!
In his previous life, Puisi sold this Taipan villa to Yaohan's boss Kazuo Wada in 1990 for 85 million. As a result, Wada's business gradually declined, so he sold the mansion for 370 million.
The buyer was Huang Kun, the founder of Mingzhu Industrial, and named it 'Tian Bi Gao'. At that time, Huang Kun had a net worth of over 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, but it was precisely because of his high profile that he was kidnapped for 38 days.
Life is in danger.
In 2003, due to SAS, everything in Hong Kong was so depressed, especially Hong Kong's economy and housing prices. Huang Kun fell into an economic crisis, and this "sky-high" mansion was also auctioned at that time.
As a result, Zhou Xingchi succeeded in picking up the leakage with RMB 320 million. Zhou Xingchi later introduced Ryoden to cooperate and transformed it into four independent villas. Later, only three of them were sold, and the capital of 1.5 billion was recovered.
Since HSBC Taipan, the last three owners seem to have been unlucky. Zhou Xingchi seems to be lucky, but having no offspring is what rich people fear most.
Of course, Lin Zuhui's status is many times more noble than that of HSBC's senior class, so of course he is not afraid of those problems!
As for the issue of kidnapping, he is even less afraid. If he kidnaps himself, the kidnapper is afraid of longevity.
"How about 75 million?" He quoted a very realistic price, which was considered a premium of 20%.
There was indeed no displeasure on Puisi's face. He thought for a moment before saying, "I need to answer this later. Please wait, Mr. Lin!"
Lin Zuhui nodded, not surprised.
But no matter what, even if Puisi is dissatisfied with the price, he will not sell it to others. At most, he will pay back the price.
Otherwise, he would offend people too much.
After all, they are also partners. If they intend to sell it, they will definitely transfer it to Lin Zuhui.
