On Monday morning, Lin Zuhui came to the New Era Group office as a habit.
A magazine "Time" (USA) that he rarely reads is placed on his desk. The cover is an elegant and handsome portrait of Lin Zuhui. The title is in English, which probably means: "Who is the Millennial Entrepreneur?"
Without reading the content, Lin Zuhui knew that he had won another 'laurel crown', but since his men were ready, he opened the magazine and started reading.
It turned out that "Time" magazine and the American accounting firm Ernst & Young formed a panel of experts to make a ruling on 'Who is the Millennial Entrepreneur'? Lin Zuhui defeated Bill Gates (Microsoft), Henry Ford (Ford Motors), Richard
De Arkwright (the first person in the British Industrial Revolution), Medici (Italian Renaissance family) and other 15 famous late and living entrepreneurs have won this laurel that spans eras and centuries.
Become the most outstanding entrepreneur of the century.
Selection experts believe:
First, Lin Zuhui controls a wealth of US$60 billion (the value of his stock holdings);
Second, Lin Zuhui’s huge wealth was created from scratch;
Third, in any field of his diversified business kingdom, Lin Zuhui has become a well-deserved great entrepreneur.
Based on these three conditions, Lin Zuhui stands out among global tycoons.
Putting down the magazine, the expression on Lin Zuhui's face was very natural. He was neither nervous about "revealing wealth" nor nervous about "sudden honor".
Anyway, I'm used to it.
He has received too many honors like this, and the weight of this magazine is almost meaningless.
For Lin Zuhui, what is weight?
When heads of state invite him to attend events, that's called weight;
The world's top chamber of commerce sends an invitation, that's the weight;
He attends events and donates to charity, that is the weight.
In the morning, Chen Bin and Chen Xiaofen arrived hand in hand.
Chen Bin is the president of New Era Group and is responsible for all group affairs, but his actual focus is the global real estate business; while Chen Xiaofen has been upgraded from the previous sales business to be in charge of the Xiangjiang real estate business.
Chen Xiaofenhui reported: "Boss, there will be a total of three pieces of land in the official land auction tomorrow..."
When Lin Zuhui heard this, he said: "They are all small plots of land, taking care of small and medium-sized real estate developers. You can take care of it yourself!"
The implication is that the emphasis is on participation, but don’t raise prices with small and medium-sized real estate developers.
New Era Group has the second largest land reserve in Hong Kong, and the cost of land is very low; while small and medium-sized real estate developers, because they have no land reserves and only have small plots of land, they are bound to work hard to compete for such small plots of land.
Although large-scale real estate developers have strong financial resources, everyone is not stupid. If they compete with others for a small plot of land, the cost will naturally increase if they get more land.
Chen Xiaofen's performance in recent years is enough to show that Lin Zuhui can delegate power to her for land acquisition, construction, and sales, not to mention that Chen Bin is her immediate boss. In fact, in important projects, not only Chen Bin has to personally participate, but also Lin Zuhui
There will also be reviews from time to time, such as 'International Financial Center'.
"Okay, I understand!" Chen Xiaofen nodded.
She has an advantage over other real estate developers because her boss has said that housing prices will not have much hope for several years, and the damage is difficult to repair. Based on this analysis of the overall situation, she really will not take the risk to fight.
After all, if big real estate developers pay too much, they will not only be ridiculed, but they will also be easily outbid by small and medium-sized real estate developers in future auctions.
Chen Xiaofen reported on other work and then left alone.
Next, Chen Bin said: "Boss, the subway at Canary Wharf will be opened in May, and the Mayor of London will attend the event..."
Lin Zuhui said: "Okay, I will attend, you can attend with me!"
"OK"
Canary Wharf Company, now the flagship of New Era Group's European real estate company, not only develops Canary Wharf and its surrounding areas, but also develops real estate projects in other parts of London. The office buildings that have been developed have been purchased by Barclays Bank
A building of 1 million square feet is leased, and it is believed that the initial 11 million square feet of office space will be fully leased within next year.
As for listing, Lin Zuhui decided to postpone it until the first half of 2007!
After all, New Era Group is not short of money now!
Choosing the right time to go public will bring greater benefits to the company. For example, if a real estate project is listed in 2007, a large amount of cash can be raised. After the Lehman outbreak in 2008, and then bargain hunting will increase the speed of asset expansion by several times.
times.
.......
When Lin Zuhui came to Cyberport, he felt a sense of pride in his heart.
The world's first instant messaging software icq comes from Hong Kong, the world's first graphic online game "Legend" comes from Hong Kong, the global popular PC game "Age of Empires" comes from Hong Kong, the Greater China portal Sina...
Every achievement in the Internet and gaming fields is related to Hong Kong. Obviously, these are inseparable from Hong Kong's "godfather" Lin Zuhui.
At this time, the Cyberport has gathered most of Hong Kong's technology companies (Internet, software, games, digital, consulting), as well as many internationally renowned companies.
The future is promising. This is how Xiangjiang citizens understand Xiangjiang's technology industry, and everyone is very confident.
Lin Zuhui came to the office building of The Ninth City, and he followed the president Gao Kelin directly to the studio of "Miracle Mu".
The9 is a large-scale game developer. From handheld games, console games, to PC games, and online games, it has not only achieved outstanding results, but also has considerable strength. The entire company has more than 700 employees, 80% of whom are locals from Hong Kong.
"Boss, this computer." Xie Li, the person in charge of "Miracle Mu" invited.
Lin Zuhui nodded, sat down unceremoniously and started to try the game. As a player of online games, web games, and mobile games for so many years, he must be very professional when evaluating games; especially in this era when online games are just emerging.
.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As a mm game (massively multiplayer role-playing game), Lin Zuhui also participated in the development of "Miracle Mu". This game draws lessons from its brother company Blizzard.
The gameplay of "Diablo" is quite beautiful. It has a wing system, an alliance system and other innovative gameplays. Compared with the online game "EverQuest" developed by Japan's Sony this year, "Miracle Mu" is among maps.
A teleport station was added during the period.
Anyone who has played "EverQuest" knows that running the map is exhausting, which will greatly affect the player's enthusiasm.
In any case, some of Lin Zuhui's ideas and creativity are an important factor influencing The9's game development; in addition, The9's game development history of more than seven years is also strong.
While Lin Zuhui was playing, Xie Li, the head of the studio, explained it. After playing for a while, he directly changed Lin Zuhui to a high-level account. Even so, it took more than two hours of playing before Lin Zuhui ended the game with satisfaction.
At this time, there were already three levels of onlookers inside and outside. The world's richest man was concentrating on playing online games. What a strange thing.
During this period, Lin Zuhui expressed some opinions, which were naturally noted by the studio.
"Well, this game is very good!" Lin Zuhui finally praised.
Xie Li quickly said: "Thank you boss for the compliment. We will continue to work hard to improve and strive to ignite new fighting spirit among players every time a new version is released!"
Lin Zuhui patted Xie Li on the shoulder, which immediately encouraged him.
"We must have an innovative spirit! If Hong Kong wants to become a key research and development area for games in the world, we must always maintain a humble spirit and innovate and learn all the time."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone applauded. Everyone knows that this boss is in charge of the world's game industry. Blizzard, Activision in the United States, and Kingsoft Games in the Mainland are all his industries or investment companies. And Xiangjiang's software and games
The industry was cultivated by him.
Therefore, in the eyes of these people, Lin Zuhui is a god-like figure.
Then, Lin Zuhui asked: "How many online game players are there in Xiangjiang?"
This data is easy to calculate. You only need to look at how many active players "Legend 1" has every day to get a rough idea.
Gao Kelin immediately said: "About 10,000 people, this number is still rising!"
Although The9 has only released one online game, "Legend 1", it has established networks in more than 50 countries (either directly, through agents or joint ventures), and already has a global distribution channel.
Three of the top ten richest men in South Korea in previous lives came from the gaming industry. It’s not about how big the Korean gaming industry is, but South Korea exports through gaming.
Lin Zuhui said: "This scale is pretty good!"
Gao Kelin said with a smile: "Almost soon we will be able to set up servers in Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and other regions and countries. We are full of confidence in "Miracle Mu" and it will definitely become a long-lasting game."
classic game."
Lin Zuhui nodded with satisfaction and said: "South Korea should also break in early, whether it is an agent or setting up its own server. In short, it is to suppress the Korean game industry."
"no problem!"
Everyone understands that South Korea and Xiangjiang have recently formulated the same general policy, so they will compete directly. If they can enter their products into South Korea, they will directly defeat them.
In Lin Zuhui's view, not only this reason, but also the birth of "Miracle Mu" may cause Bangzi Country's game companies to fall into a 'plagiarism crisis'. There are two consequences: First, if Korean game developers are already developing this
The project will stop development or change many ideas; secondly, if Korean game developers release similar games, it will obviously cause plagiarism. The9 will definitely report this matter in the Korean media. It will not only be embarrassed in Korea, but also
It can also be exported internationally.
Lin Zuhui didn’t know whether the two games “Miracle Mu” and “Ragnarok” were being developed by Korean game companies, so he thought so; but he was certain that after the millennium, The9 City would be developing games that he was more familiar with.
"Audition", "MapleStory", "Kart Run", etc., Bangziguo must not directly plagiarize it, because it is too obvious. Later, "Cross Fire" and "Dungeon Fighter" will also be
Almost all games in Bangzi Kingdom are available.
As the saying goes, how ruthless Bangzi Country was in exporting games to the mainland in the previous life, they will be ruthless in being intercepted in this life.
.......
Friday, April 23rd.
"Miracle Mu" officially launched closed beta testing in Xiangjiang. The Internet cafes in Xiangjiang were overcrowded for a while, and many people couldn't wait to start preparing to experience it.
In order to develop online games, The9 has invested in many Internet cafes in Hong Kong, accounting for almost 80% of the Internet cafe machines in Hong Kong. At the same time, Hong Kong people themselves are very wealthy, and the proportion of computer owners ranks among the top three in the world.
This leads to the fact that although Hong Kong only has 6 million people, there are a lot of online game players, and in later generations, it even reached 600,000.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, some people even asked for leave and came to the Internet cafe, intending to experience "Miracle Mu" for the first time, which shows everyone's love; after all, it has been promoted for so long in advance, and many people are already fascinated by it.
"What a delicate picture! There are also wings, it looks so majestic!"
"The kingdom of mu...the invasion of monsters...the continent of braves"
Suddenly, the Internet cafe was noisy and cheering.
.......
Naturally, "Miracle Mu" has also attracted the attention of Asian game developers and agents, and they have gained a deep understanding of the Hong Kong game industry.
Many overseas media have commented that this is a much better game than the Korean "Lineage"; whether it is in terms of game picture quality or gameplay diversity, it is a top-notch online game.
The Ninth City has once again become a leader in this circle.
Driven by this, naturally there is also the development of the entire Hong Kong game industry and the enthusiasm of some start-up companies.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Starting a game studio in Cyberport has many advantages: first, office space is very cheap, only 15 Hong Kong dollars per square foot per month; second, there are
An 'investment fund' specially set up by Jingwei Capital; third, Hong Kong already has its own game exhibition; fourth, The9 can act as an agent for overseas distribution.
In short, Xiangjiang's game industry has begun to develop at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lin Zuhui took Li Jiaxin, who had returned from London, to the shopping mall of the International Financial Center, and then walked into a Gucci specialty store.
The business inside was good, and many customers were shopping. When the clerk saw Lin Zuhui and Li Jiaxin walking in, his expression suddenly changed.
"Hello, boss, hello, miss!" A woman who looked like a manager came up to greet her immediately.
Li Jiaxin immediately put her hand on Lin Zuhui's arm and pressed it closer, with a trace of pride on her face.
Lin Zuhui smiled and said, "Just call me Lin Sheng!"
Last month, Barings Bank's successful acquisition of Gucci set off a frenzy of public opinion in Hong Kong. Many people know that Barings Bank is an investment bank under the Octopus Financial Group, which means that it was Lin Zuhui, the first person in Hong Kong, to acquire the world's top luxury goods.
For a time, Hong Kong people became somewhat proud of the brand.
"Okay, Lin Sheng!"
During this period, the clerk whom I met last time was also there. Lin Zuhui smiled and said to her: "I have to thank you for reminding me last time, otherwise I wouldn't have bought Gucci on a whim."
The clerk fell into ecstasy, and then said calmly: "Lin Sheng said something serious. I just introduced the origin of Gucci to customers normally. This is the essential job I should do."
Lin Zuhui nodded, then said nothing, sat down and waited for Li Jiaxin to shop.
this......
The clerk suddenly felt a little disappointed. Although she said so, she really wanted to be appreciated by Lin Zuhui. Fortunately, she quickly adjusted her mentality and followed Li Jiaxin to wait for instructions.
Some other clerks who knew her a little bit couldn't help but laugh in their hearts, thinking that you still want to take credit for this matter from your colleagues. You really think the world is falling apart, right?
In fact, Lin Zuhui did not forget the 'hero' during this period. He took the time to whisper a few instructions to Li Jiaxin, and Li Jiaxin nodded seriously. She is no longer the jealous and competitive girl she used to be. She now understands one thing
Lin Zuhui will never pamper one woman or a few women, but he can only work hard to be the ones Lin Zuhui loves the most. Regarding what kind of girls Brother Hui likes, Li Jiaxin naturally understands, that is, they are obedient and obedient.
, a girl who doesn’t cause trouble.
When choosing to shop again, Li Jiaxin asked: "What's your name?"
The clerk quickly said: "Miss Li, my name is Wang Lixin."
“Leave me a phone number later!”
"Okay, Miss Li"
At this time, Wang Lixin became excited again. She thought that Lin Zuhui had not forgotten her, so she asked her girlfriend to contact her and give her a better job. In any case, working as a shopping guide here only earns about 20,000 yuan a month.
, but if you work with a rich person, even if it is only 20,000, you will definitely have a better future. If you can climb into Mr. Lin Zuhui's bed, even if you play with ~ things a few times, you will feel that you have made a big change. Who in Hong Kong doesn't know that Lin Zuhui is very good at it.
Women are very generous with their actions.
If Li Jiaxin had to think so much as Wang Lixin, she would probably kick this whimsical woman away. Brother Hui wanted to see if this female shopping guide could be used by her, as a staff member or something like that.
Finally, when Wang Lixin handed Li Jiaxin a note, she said: "Ms. Li, this is my phone number. Please take care of me!"
Li Jiaxin nodded, then took Lin Zuhui's arm and left.
Next, Wang Lixin was inevitably questioned by her colleagues, and even her manager asked about it, with a hint of blame.
Wang Lixin said proudly: "Manager, it's Miss Li who asked me for my phone number. I have to give it to you!"
For a moment, everyone was silent, some were envious and some were jealous.
The manager immediately said: ‘Well, of course I can’t deny it, you did a great job!’ It was decided at that moment that no matter what, Wang Lixin could not be given small shoes, and she even had to take care of her.
"She won't really be appreciated by Mr. Lin, right? Let her work as an assistant to Miss Li?"
"It's just one sentence, why should she!" "Hey, why wasn't I serving Mrs. Lin last time?"
Many people understand that since Li Jiaxin wants Wang Lixin's phone number, Wang Lixin is probably going to have good luck.
.......
In the evening, the sea south of Hong Kong.
On the super yacht, Lin Zuhui, Li Jiaxin, and Miss He were dating.
At this time, Miss He had broken up with Xu Er, and it was two years earlier than in the previous life. However, even so, Lin Zuhui still could not be too intimate with Miss He in public. After all, the issue of their identities was the biggest problem.
The three of them were sitting in the restaurant, enjoying a sumptuous dinner.
Miss He was looking forward to the show, so she dressed up very sexy today because this man said that he liked her sexy look. On the surface, she is a eldest lady, a good girl, and a strong woman, but in fact she is
The xx on this man’s bed.
"My dad seems to have discovered something between us!" Miss He's cheeks were slightly tipsy, which was a reaction of drinking and hormones.
Lin Zuhui was stunned and said, "What's going on?"
He wasn't afraid that He Sheng would cause trouble for him, so what if he openly said that he was cumming and his daughter was pregnant?
However, Miss He has always been the eldest daughter of the second family. She has been influenced by her mother since she was a child. She has to take responsibility for the second family and take care of her younger brothers and sisters. In fact, she is fighting for the casino assets for the second family.
Although Lin Zuhui brought Miss He a fortune, it was only some funds after all, not a career, so Miss He was also worried that if her father knew about her affair with Lin Zuhui, it would affect her status in the company and the family.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Didn't I make more than 800 million Hong Kong dollars in foreign exchange, and then invest in stocks and properties, and he accidentally found out! He asked me why I was like this
Rich, I said I earned it by speculating in foreign exchange and stocks, and he started to doubt my relationship with you."
Lin Zuhui said: "Then what do you think?"
Miss He said: "I don't care, I have to live for myself once. He can think whatever he wants! Ah Hui, how about I give you a child too?"
At this time, Miss He was a little rebellious, and it could be seen that she was similar to how she was at this time in her previous life.
Lin Zuhui said calmly: "I don't care, but I have to ask you to think carefully. I can make you develop into a billionaire or even tens of billions, which is easy for me; but you still have a sister and a brother.
, once you make your father unhappy, will your business in the casino be affected by your second wife? After all, the business is long-term in nature, and money is just a number in the account."
Miss He seemed to have had enough of the family affairs, and immediately said: "But I am 37 years old, I can't live without children for the rest of my life, I don't want to live for anyone anymore!"
Yes, I am 37 years old. Although for some reason, I look like I am in my early 30s and still very young, but I am still there after all.
Lin Zuhui could only say: "Then you should handle the formalities first!"
"Um"
At this time, Li Jiaxin sighed: "My man really attracts women!" After saying that, she joked to her good friend Miss He.
Miss He would lose to her former little follower, so she immediately said: "I'm just borrowing it, you can't bear to part with it!"
】
Li Jiaxin said disdainfully: "Tch, you don't eat enough!"
Lin Zuhui watched with interest. He likes combinations. Now Yiwanka is not a combination, the others are all combinations.
