After the Spring Festival, Lin Zuhui quickly got into work. He has his own views on work attitude. He will not work as hard as Li Chaoren, but he will try his best to work eight hours every working day.
Huazhi Center.
In the chairman's office of New Era Group, Lin Zuhui is fiddling with computers. He may be the chairman of a listed company in Hong Kong who accepts computer work the fastest.
There are two computers in his office, but they are not placed on the big desk, but are placed in a special area. The landline phone is also not placed on the big desk, but is placed separately.
Because he doesn't like a messy feeling, he usually puts some documents on his large desk during the day and keeps it clean after get off work.
Although the computer is a certain distance away from the office, Lin Zuhui can see the stock data on the computer, so occasionally he will look up to see how the stock price of New Era Group is rising.
This has probably become a habit. It is not that he has made a lot of money because the stock has risen a few cents today, but that Lin Zuhui feels that the rise in the stock symbolizes his own achievements and the development prospects of New Era Group.
After Lin Zuhui fiddled with the computer skillfully for a while, he returned to his office.
Xiangjiang was connected last year, and soon stocks could be traded online. Even Lin Zuhui couldn't help but open a special account to keep it fresh.
After reading the documents for a while, senior executives began to come to report on their work.
The first person to walk in was Liang Zhenxun, the financial director of New Era Group.
After listening to the report, Lin Zuhui arranged: "Last year, New Era Group's profit once again became the first in Hong Kong, so this year we will still be more generous and use 1.5 billion to distribute dividends to shareholders."
After Liang Zhenxun thought for a while, he said: "Are you considering raising funds through rights issues this year? After all, boss, you plan to invest heavily in the mainland, you have many overseas investment plans, and there are many big plans in Hong Kong; in this way, sufficient cash flow may not be enough.
It will be guaranteed!”
When Lin Zuhui heard this, he also started thinking seriously.
His idea was simple. In the 1990s, he worked hard to expand the scale of New Era Group and become a global enterprise.
It is said that in his previous life, Li Chaoren's return rate in the mainland was 8% to 13%, and the return rate at the port was not high either.
Therefore, in Lin Zuhui’s mind, investment must be made both inland and overseas, and both hands must be strong, both hands must be strong.
Moreover, only global enterprises can resist risks. If the investment is lost on one side, it can be recovered on the other side. This is also the application of the "egg philosophy".
"The initiative lies with New Era Group. As long as our reputation is good, we can raise funds through rights issues, issue convertible bonds, etc. at any time. For me, I hope that the more shareholders of New Era Group, the better."
Lin Zuhui told the truth. While ensuring that he held 49% of the equity, he hoped that the remaining 51% of New Era Group's equity would be as dispersed as possible.
In this way, he is equivalent to making money for more people, maybe 100,000 people, which gives him a sense of honor!
Liang Zhenxun nodded and said: "The boss is right, the initiative is in our hands. Our large annual dividends make the shareholders smile; as for the rights issue, the shareholders decide based on their own strength. The original shareholders do not have rights issues.
, new shareholders rush to buy it, so the number of shareholders will be greatly increased!"
Paying a dividend of 1.5 billion and issuing a rights issue of 3 billion is not considered a conflict. You can choose not to pay and you can still enjoy the dividend next year.
Moreover, the funds from the rights issue must have been invested, so this is good news.
Even from a short-term investment perspective, the rights issue is estimated to be slightly lower than the market price, and New Era Group will continue to rise every time it issues a rights issue, so short-term investment can also be profitable.
"Then make arrangements and release the annual financial report in early March!"
"OK!"
In the morning, I processed some documents and listened to reports from senior executives. The time passed quickly.
.......
Accompanied by Luo Bencheng, Lin Zuhui came to the Wanhui Toys Factory in Kwun Tong for inspection. With the animation of "Detective Conan" in Taiwan, the ratings and sales of the stand-alone book have increased, and the surrounding areas of "Detective Conan" have suddenly become popular.
Things are booming. Orders from Taiwan and Taiwan are pouring in, so much so that Wanhui Toy Factory is working overtime during the Spring Festival.
"Boss, President Luo!" Yang Kangjian, the person in charge of Wanhui Toys, greeted the two at the door.
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "Go directly to the production workshop!"
"OK!"
Soon, a group of people came to the workshop. It was extremely busy here and the workers were working overtime. When they saw Lin Zuhui walking in, everyone looked slightly excited, not because they were grateful to the boss, but because they saw the richest man in China.
As for whether these workers have any complaints about working overtime, Lin Zuhui doesn't care at all. They should cherish it. The toy factory will soon be moved to the mainland and they will be unemployed.
Last year, Wanhui Toy Factory acquired a 300-acre piece of land in FS City and planned to build a large-scale factory. Therefore, the toy factory workers in Xiangjiang became unemployed only in the past two years.
Lin Zuhui picked up a Conan figure and asked with a smile: "How many such figures can be sold every month now?"
Yang Kangjian immediately said: "Sales have been rising sharply recently. The main sales markets are Taiwan and Hong Kong. Based on the current market conditions, it is estimated that 100,000 figures of various shapes per month will not be a problem."
It seems that comics fans are really making money. Lin Zuhui couldn't help but think to himself that figures, cards and other peripherals would probably cost a comic fan more than a single volume or serialized magazine.
"Very good results. The prospects for comic related products are great. You must continue to dig deeper. We must strengthen the protection of copyrights!"
"Yes, boss!" the accompanying senior staff replied one after another.
Today, Lin Zuhui came to inspect the toy factory to guide the work of the team responsible for comic peripherals.
After the New Year, Lin Zuhui's communication and media companies continue to have good news.
As for Wanhui Media, the anime and stand-alone books of "Detective Conan" have very good ratings and sales in Taiwan. At the same time, Japan's Yomiuri TV has finally decided to purchase "Detective Conan" at a cost of US$6,000 per episode.
Detective Conan" animation broadcast rights.
No one can get along with people and interests. Yomiuri TV has always had a great influence in animation broadcasting. Now that it has seen "Detective Conan" that is popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan, it can't help but introduce it. The important thing is that this
It is a Japanese comic style and is very easy for Japanese audiences to accept.
And Wanhui Media did not offer high prices. The reason is very simple. Lin Zuhui's position from the beginning was: make big money from peripherals and small money from copyright.
The reason for making a small amount of money from copyright is to expand the reputation of the work; after it becomes famous, subsequent profits will roll in.
There is also good news from Asia Television. It has signed the broadcasting rights of "Blue Life and Death" with Taiwan China Television.
The market in Taiwan is several times larger than that in Hong Kong, and the relationship between the two places is very good (the system is the same). ATV has always put Taiwan as its primary focus, and then promoted it to Japan, Southeast Asia, and South Korea.
The same is true for YG Entertainment. Its artists are from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Southeast Asia... and are promoted in order.
The three groups of YG Entertainment were already formed years ago. In March, Hong Kong's first idol girl group will debut. The group SES is composed of three girls. The main song is "We Are Young Girls". The look is a bit killer.
, non-mainstream style, the music style is light, youthful, lively, and the choreography is full of girlish style.
SES is a first-generation Hong Kong pop group, so naturally it is impossible for them to be sexy or show their long legs. Lin Zuhui is familiar with the style of the first to third-generation Korean pop groups in the past. The first generation focused on youth and girls, and the second generation has already fallen somewhere between
Between the girlish style and the sexy style, the third band has directly let go, showing off the good figure is the characteristic.
In the first half of the year, YG Entertainment will release a boy group called Shinhwa, and in the second half of the year, they will release an electronic music group named Ko Yuta.
If everything goes well and the foundation of yg entertainment has been perfectly laid, if Lin Zuhui does not interfere, he will develop in the direction of the Korean Wave in his previous life. Of course, Lin Zuhui can't sit still and will always express a few opinions.
.......
weekend.
Lin Zuhui made an appointment with Lee Shau Kee and Zheng Yutong to the Clear Water Bay Golf Club.
There is no longer any gambling money for the three of them to play golf, because their strengths are no longer equal. Uncle Fourth and Uncle Tong are both old, and Lin Zuhui's skills are increasing day by day, and it is difficult to achieve a balanced handicap.
After playing a few holes, Lin Zuhui said: "Uncle Fourth, Uncle Tong, the mainland's policies have become more open, and everyone is planning to invest heavily in the mainland, right?"
The mainland market is so big, there is no need for us to be competitors.
Lee Shau Kee said: "I'm thinking about it. I invest very little overseas because the rate of return is low. However, I am still very optimistic about the mainland market. After all, there are many people in the mainland."
Zheng Yutong said: "I have long been optimistic about the mainland market, but after this incident, I am even more optimistic about the mainland market. It is estimated that New World Development's investment in the mainland will account for 30%."
Indeed, after 1992 in the previous life, everyone went to the mainland to invest one after another.
In the small city of Hong Kong, capital and power do not belong to overseas countries.
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "I invite you all this time to ask if you have any plans for a 'Central Plaza' in the Mainland. I have already formulated five 'Central Plazas' in Beijing, Magic City, Pengcheng, and Yangcheng.
'Plan (Modu Two), if you two are willing to invest, I have prepared a total of 40% of the shares! Of course, if you are prepared to invest alone, that is also very good!"
Strictly speaking, Henderson also holds 20% of the "Central Plaza" brand, because Henderson Land has 20% of the equity of Hong Kong's Central Plaza. If Lin Zuhui wants to vigorously develop "Central Plaza" in the mainland, he may not be able to unilaterally abandon Lee Shau Kee.
, to ask what he means.
As for attracting Zheng Yutong, it was also Lin Zuhui's idea. He wanted to spread the "Central Plaza" brand to first-tier cities in the mainland (in the past life), and absorb some advantages of the previous Wanda model (for reference).
Therefore, it is also possible to attract Zheng Yutong to become a shareholder.
Lee Shau Kee quickly agreed: "I can invest. I don't have a comprehensive center brand. The most investment I can make in the mainland is in buildings."
Zheng Yutong pondered that he had the brand name of the New World Center commercial complex and could develop independently in the mainland. However, he also considered that although he had a good relationship with the mainland, compared with Lin Zuhui, it was far from enough.
Now, the Mainland values Lin Zuhui more than Li Chaoren.
"New World Development also wants to invest, but we may also enter commercial complexes in the future!" Zheng Yutong expressed his thoughts.
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "This is natural. The mainland market is so big. Taking Shanghai as an example, ten complex centers can easily be built. But my plan is relatively big. The first commercial complex can be said to be an investment
All are investments between 2 billion and 4 billion. Not only that, we will also expand in many potential capital cities in the mainland..."
For a moment, the two of them were shocked by Lin Zuhui's plan.
But the two of them became more determined to invest!
In terms of share, after negotiation, New Era Group will exclusively hold 60%, Henderson will hold 25%, and New World Development will hold 15%. This is only an opportunity for the first five commercial centers, and the rest will be discussed later.
After the matter was discussed, Zheng Yutong couldn't help but ask: "You said you would invest in American commercial real estate, why haven't I seen you yet to make preparations?"
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Don't worry, let's figure out what's going on in the mainland first, and then we'll talk!"
There is plenty of time, so Lin Zuhui is not in a hurry!
