After get off work, Lin Zuhui drove to the World Trade Center in Causeway Bay.
This acquisition is something he is quite proud of. The World Trade Center has always been one of the representative shopping malls in Causeway Bay in its previous life.
Coupled with the Royal Building, Lam Cho Fai has two well-known shopping malls in Causeway Bay, not counting the Gloria Center which is under construction.
Causeway Bay will soon become one of the three most expensive retail districts in the world. The prices of shops here will usher in explosive growth after the mainland reopens. Therefore, if someone sells a shop on Russell Street in Causeway Bay in the past few years, Hengjin Home ownership may be the first thing to buy.
There are many people in the World Trade Center. This is the favorite place for white-collar women in Xiangjiang to hang out, and it is also the favorite place for women to work. Generally speaking, rich people like Lin Zuhui rarely visit here.
But today, Guan Jiahui made an appointment with him to eat and go shopping. No matter how big a celebrity Lin Zuhui is, his girlfriend is young, so every date can't be on a yacht or in a club.
Lam Cho-fai is now a well-known figure in Hong Kong. Most Hong Kong people know him. When he walked into the World Trade Center, he attracted the attention of many people. No one came up to ask for an autograph or anything. They were just looking at him out of curiosity. Besides, Lam Cho-fai Some of my bodyguards are not vegetarians.
Arriving at a restaurant on the fourth floor, he soon saw Guan Jiahui waving to him.
Lin Zuhui came to Guan Jiahui and looked at this woman. She was at her most beautiful age. After becoming a mother, her charm was even more beautiful than before. She was worthy of being the most beautiful woman in Hong Kong. For Lin Zuhui, although he had been with Guan Jiahui for almost six years, in fact, Didn't get tired of it.
It's not that his aesthetics is not tired, but that he really has many fairies, and he may only have been with Guan Jiahui for a year. What's more, even if he is a little tired, the two of them are still in a relationship and have a son.
There is nothing to say about Guan Jiahui's clothes. After all, her family is a clothing maker, and a single skirt has already made her look stunning.
However, Lin Zuhui teased her: "You don't choose a high-end place to treat me to dinner, you are a stingy money lover!"
Guan Jiahui immediately leaned forward and said coquettishly: "The food here is very delicious. Besides, the Tiantian Hotel has such a romantic restaurant!"
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "You actually said that this kind of place is romantic, then why don't you just live in a mansion on the top of the mountain instead of a mansion on the mountainside? It's more romantic there!"
"Hehe, it doesn't hurt to live there once in a while. I can't bear to part with the villa on the top of the mountain. It's like a restaurant like this. If we go on a date once in a while, it will feel the same as before!" After saying that, Guan Jiahui seemed to recall the past.
At that time, Lin Zuhui didn't have as much money as he does now, but he spent a lot of time with her.
Now, this man has a lot of money, but he spends less and less time with himself.
Lin Zuhui felt a little ashamed. He seemed to have messed up today's atmosphere.
However, he would not admit his mistake, so he quickly said: "Where should we go shopping after dinner?"
Guan Jiahui immediately became excited when she heard that Lin Zuhui was going shopping with her. She talked tirelessly about where new luxury goods had arrived and where a new store had opened.
Lin Zuhui thought to himself that it was lucky that he could collect the rent of luxury goods stores. Otherwise, these women would buy tens of millions of luxury goods a year, which would make the foreigners make too much money. That thing would steal more money than the rent in Hong Kong.
Facts have proved that Guan Jiahui's clothes are good, the food is good, and this restaurant is indeed good.
After the two of them had eaten, they went shopping. Guan Jiahui always liked to hold Lin Zuhui's arm, and she was very affectionate.
Arriving at a GI store in Causeway Bay, Kwan Jiahui immediately started her shopping trip.
Lin Zuhui would not be so bored. He had no interest in luxury goods anymore, so he found a place to sit up.
"Lin Sheng, please drink some water!"
A beautiful counter girl squatted down and placed a cup of tea on the coffee table in front of Lin Zuhui. Lin Zuhui glanced at it casually, and the counter girl immediately straightened her back, showing off her proud figure. She was wearing black thin socks.
One of her legs was also slightly stretched. Her pretty face showed a very friendly smile. She was indeed good in all aspects and had the potential to be a wealthy lover.
Tempt yourself?
No matter how boring Lin Zuhui is, he will never pick up a cabinet girl. Only Liu Luanxiong is so leisurely. It's not that he despises cabinet girls, but these cabinet girls usually come into contact with many rich people, and they have developed a character of being high-minded but low-handed.
From a troublesome point of view, it is even more difficult to deal with than an artist. Liu Luanxiong's girlfriend Lu Lijun in his previous life is an example. She even hinted at Liu Luanxiong's cuckolding in the media. This tmd hurts a man's self-esteem very badly. No wonder he wants to
Kicked off the family fund beneficiary list.
"Thanks"
Lin Zuhui replied calmly and left in just a moment anyway.
However, he underestimated his reputation as a romantic tycoon in Hong Kong, and also underestimated the desk girl’s desire for success. The desk girl quietly handed Lin Zuhui a note and mustered up the courage to say: "Mr. Lin
, this is my contact number!”
In this situation, as a man with grace, it is impossible to scold others, so Lin Zuhui had no choice but to quietly put the note into his trouser pocket.
The cabinet sister then left with satisfaction. In fact, her behavior had attracted the attention of several people, especially Guan Jiahui, who had noticed it as soon as the cabinet sister came to Lin Zuhui.
When she saw the counter sister stuffing something into Lin Zuhui, Guan Jiahui couldn't wait any longer!
When the two of them went shopping together, the most popular person was not her, a beautiful woman, but Lin Zuhui, a rich man.
Guan Jiahui suppressed her dissatisfaction with the cabinet sister in her heart. She couldn't get angry. She had been with Lin Zuhui for so long, and she knew that what Lin Zuhui hated most was women without grace and manners. With these two things, no matter how beautiful she is, she will only have the fate of being dumped.
Holding an eye-catching bag, Guan Jiahui paid the bill in person. From the beginning of their acquaintance, Lin Zuhui rarely paid for her. But no matter who saw this situation, they would not think that Lin Zuhui was stingy.
Lin Zuhui's reputation as a romantic man can be said to be very good, and he is the richest man who is most generous to women.
Soon, the two hurriedly left the gi shop.
Lin Zuhui joked: "Why do you save so much today and end it with just one bag?"
Guan Jiahui looked at Lin Zuhui, wanting to ask but not daring to ask. If this man had any thoughts about the counter girl, asking him herself would make him a little embarrassed.
This man is looking for women, and whenever he needs the consent of fairies like them, he does it directly, and even drags her along, which is ridiculous.
When Lin Zuhui saw that Guan Jiahui was silent, he smiled and put his hand into his trouser pocket and gave the small note to Guan Jiahui.
"For this?"
Guan Jiahui happily took the note and asked tentatively: "Did I throw it in the trash can?" After saying that, she looked at Lin Zuhui eagerly.
What man can resist a pair of charming big eyes?
Lin Zuhui nodded, Guan Jiahui tore it off and threw it into the nearest trash can. After doing this, she held Lin Zuhui's arm happily again.
"It's too early to be happy. Don't you know that I have a photographic memory?" Lin Zuhui continued to joke, looking at Guan Jiahui with a funny expression.
Guan Jiahui's face suddenly stiffened, and she said pitifully: "Then can you please stop contacting that counter sister? She is so annoying!"
On the street, Lin Zuhui openly hooked Guan Jiahui's nose and said calmly: "I didn't read the note at all. It's useless for you to say that I have a good memory!"
"Hehe, you know how to tease me!" After saying happily, Guan Jiahui added: "I don't care about your things, but I think those cabinet ladies are so smart!"
"Let's go and continue shopping!" Lin Zuhui said with a smile.
It's a very interesting little thing that makes life richer. In fact, he often encounters this kind of thing. Once a person has money, everything becomes different. He went shopping 10 times in his previous life, but he never saw that beautiful woman take the initiative to strike up a conversation.
A new week begins.
Monday, June 18th.
The top two floors of the office building in Block B of Huazhi Center have now become the headquarters of the ‘Lam Cho Fai Family Office’. Of course, it is only temporary. In the future, it will be moved to the top two floors of the ‘Central Plaza’, overlooking Hong Kong.
Lin Zuhui came to the family office to inspect. There were already many employees here. They were all administrative staff and senior staff recruited locally in Hong Kong. All senior staff recruited overseas had also arrived at the Hong Kong headquarters.
After a while, the CEO of the family office, Robert Featherston Howe, called everyone in a large conference room. About thirty or forty people gathered together.
Lin Zuhui sat in the main seat, senior staff sat on the first floor, and administrative staff sat on the periphery.
"Today is June 18th. I am here to officially announce that the Lin Family Office has been officially established!" Lin Zuhui said in English. English is one of the official languages of Hong Kong, so everyone here is very proficient, even the administrative staff.
They are also talents with a salary of more than 20,000 yuan.
Everyone immediately burst into applause. They all had an expression of honor. They probably thought it was an honor to serve a wealthy man like Lin Zuhui. This job is much better than other jobs outside, and the level of contact is also different.
Lin Zuhui continued: "Do you know what is the most important thing when working in my home? Tell me!" He pointed at an administrative staff member casually.
"It's a secret!"
Lin Zuhui immediately said: "Yes, it means keeping it secret! You will all be people close to the Lin family, which means that you have intervened in the privacy of our family, so it must be kept secret. You will all sign a confidentiality agreement later. I hope you understand one thing.
, a decent salary with a high salary also requires a lot of sacrifice.”
"Yes, boss!"
"yes, boss!"
Lin Zuhui nodded, and then he handed the meeting over to Robert. He is the CEO of the family office. He is much more professional than Lin Zuhui on how to arrange the next steps. He also needs to fully trust Robert, otherwise he will be very tired.
The family office has a complete system and organization, including legal, accounting, and auditing talents, and it is by no means a CEO who can dominate everything.
And Lin Zuhui also listened to Robert's arrangement seriously, and nodded secretly in his heart, the money was not wasted.
As far as the current work is concerned, it is roughly divided into recruitment, preparation of overseas headquarters and branches, etc., especially overseas headquarters and branches, which Lin Zuhui attaches great importance to.
He is not worried about the high expenses of the family office. At least for the next 30 years, he does not need to worry about the expenses of the family office because he can make money.
Some senior staff and talents of Hengjin Investment have also begun to slowly be integrated into the family office. Of course, Hengjin Investment will still serve as his family investment company, after all, the family office is too conspicuous.
After this meeting, the Lin Family Office was finally formally established and began operations.
But it may not be completed until the end of the year before it can be truly perfected and put into use.
afternoon.
Lin Zuhui came to Hengjin Investment.
I came to Li Hao to ask about the market situation of crude oil futures, and the result made Lin Zuhui feel a little cold. Currently, crude oil futures are only 15 US dollars per barrel, compared with 22 US dollars per barrel at the beginning of the year.
Fortunately, I didn't buy it in advance, otherwise my position would have been liquidated several times.
Moreover, if you buy crude oil futures at US$15 per barrel, it will easily liquidate your position as long as they fall below US$14 per barrel.
Lin Zuhui thought about whether to wait until July to buy or buy immediately.
Soon, Lin Zuhui said resolutely: "Let Hengjin Investment buy 300 million Hong Kong dollars in crude oil futures at about 15 US dollars per barrel, but remember to be cautious! If it continues to fall, remember to increase the margin to prevent him from liquidating his position. Finish buying
After that, remember to tell me so that I can continue to arrange additional investment."
Li Hao nodded quickly and went to make arrangements!
Hengjin Investment will buy crude oil futures in London, New York, and Xiangjiang respectively. The contracts of 300 million Hong Kong dollars, which is 3 billion, will not alarm Wall Street bosses.
Lin Zuhui believed that it was unlikely to fall below US$14 per barrel, so he planned to open a position at US$15 per barrel.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! To be honest, crude oil futures are much more risky than foreign exchange. At the beginning of the year, it was 22 US dollars per barrel, but now it has dropped to 15 US dollars per barrel. According to crude oil futures 10
When calculating leverage, I don’t know how many people’s positions will be blown up.
Oil plummets!
As for the reason, isn't it because Kuwait is seeking death, desperately increasing production and driving down the price of crude oil.
Iraq's debt this year has reached 14 billion U.S. dollars, and it relies entirely on oil to save its life. If Kuwait does this, then Iraq's oil will not be able to sell at a high price, and Kuwait will naturally be killed.
Of course, both sides seek death.
Kuwait sought death, and several members of the royal family died; Iraq sought death, and was severely punished by the United States.
The greater the risk, the higher the profit!
If the average opening price of Hengjin Investment is 16 US dollars per barrel, and it starts to close the position when it rises to 32 US dollars per barrel (actually it rises to 41 US dollars per barrel), based on the ten-fold leverage calculation, the profit can be almost 10 times.
Therefore, Lin Zuhui only planned to buy 1 billion Hong Kong dollars in crude oil futures in batches, and then use 2 billion to ensure that his position would not be liquidated. He would stop after making 10 billion to avoid being targeted.
After making arrangements for crude oil speculation, Lin Zuhui breathed a sigh of relief. When investing in these high-risk financial products, sometimes he knew that the general trend was not safe.
Fortunately, he has long since gotten rid of gambler-like investments!
No matter what kind of financial investment, even if he loses money, Lin Zuhui will not break his muscles or make another big bet.
At the beginning of this month, Lin Zuhui had arranged for Li Hao to gradually liquidate the Hong Kong blue-chip stocks he had invested in. He would clear the positions in two months and expected to withdraw 5 billion in funds.
In addition, last week, Lam Cho-fai also sold 25% of the equity of Modern Containers to the Wharf Group for 3.5 billion, making a profit of 1 billion Hong Kong dollars. After Modern Containers won the bid for No. 8 Kwai Chung Container, it did not ask shareholders to inject capital
, but there is some cash on the account plus a loan.
As for shorting the Nikkei, it rebounded by nearly 3,000 points (points) in May, allowing profits to be taken. However, Lin Zuhui was not in a hurry. He remembered that the lowest point was the point, and he estimated that in August, when Iraq invaded Kuwait, it would start to plummet again immediately.
Although financial investment can make money, you have to rely on industry to feel at ease, Lin Zuhui thought in his heart.
Of course, when investing in U.S. stocks and Hong Kong stocks, as long as he does not invest with leverage, he feels very at ease. After all, there is no such thing as liquidation.
After the crude oil futures investment ends, Lin Zuhui may not make leveraged investment in financial products in the future.
After all, his cash flow is very sufficient, so why take risks?
Of course I will invest in Hong Kong stocks and US stocks, but they are non-leveraged investments, and they are all high-quality stocks that I am familiar with, so I will not lose money no matter what.
Moreover, after the 20 billion cash in his hand is spent (the approximate amount after all risky financial products are withdrawn), his company in Hong Kong and investment in real estate will generate large dividends every year, and there will be no need to take risks.
