"Most everyone is here today. I have a project here. I wonder if you are interested?"
Lin Tingsheng said that the project is really not small, the Taipei MRT has five lines.
However, no one can make up their mind on this matter. This investment is a typical high investment and low return. If it were just the Taipei MRT, everyone present would reject it without hesitation.
Perhaps the Baodao government was also aware of this situation, so it followed the example of Xiangjiang and took over the property development rights on the station.
This is quite tempting to those present, especially those who own real estate in Xiangjiang. Thinking about the competition for properties on the station in Xiangjiang, it is too easy to obtain them here.
But the investment was too big, so everyone turned their attention to Li Jianhui, and only Li Jianhui could make the decision on this matter.
As for who has the most wealth, only Li Jianhui sitting here, who has become the richest man in the world, does not have a loan for any of his properties. This is simply a weird thing.
It’s no wonder that the Japanese and American consortiums want to suppress the Xinjian Department. This is really too terrifying, at least for the capital chain of most companies, but it is useless for the Xinjian Department.
The reason why the stock prices of Xinjian listed companies are not very strong at present is mainly because Li Jianhui often achieves growth, and does not pay dividends, and all profits are invested in expansion.
HSBC has undoubtedly done much better than Xinjian in this regard. It pays large dividends every year, which makes many shareholders willing to hold HSBC stocks for a long time. As a result, HSBC's market value can dominate the market in Hong Kong, and no one can give it to them.
It brings too much threat, even to the powerful Huihong Group.
Especially these days, Li Chunxue has been gradually selling his shares, which has caused considerable fluctuations in the stock price of Huihong Group. The current total market value fluctuates around HK$55 billion.
The end of the year is approaching, and the new year is coming, which means that HSBC’s dividends will also come. Due to the long-standing trust in HSBC, HSBC’s stock price has maintained an overall upward momentum. The total market value has exceeded 70 billion Hong Kong dollars, leaving behind
Huihong Group is worth nearly 20 billion.
No single company in Xiangjiang can compete with it, not even Xinjian Group. Huihong Group, which has not been divided, is still qualified. After Huaxin Technology was separated, Huihong Group also lost that strength.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Li Jianhui did not choose to remain silent. He spoke up: "It is not impossible to invest in this area, but the specifics need to be investigated. Moreover, it is impossible to build five lines at the same time. It is best to build them one by one.
, this way our financial pressure can be reduced."
"I have already communicated with Dean Sun in this regard. If we are really willing to invest in the Taipei MRT, we can build Line 1 first. The total plan for the five lines will be 20 years.
However, the Baodao government wants to hold 35% of the shares of the MRT company, and they will use the property development rights on the station as investment."
Hearing what Lin Tingsheng said, Lei Juekun immediately objected. Investing in subway construction already costs a lot of money. If the property on the station is given to them for free, they can consider it.
But now they actually want 35% of their shares. They really think they are being taken advantage of. There is no way they can agree to this matter.
Li Guobao also disagrees. At present, Hutchison Real Estate and Xinjian Real Estate have opened up in Japan. In the coming year, Chinese Real Estate, Kowloon Construction, Guanghua Construction, etc. will enter the Japanese market. If the Baodao government makes such a request, investing in Taipei
The MRT is not worth the loss for them.
Seeing this, Gu Zhenfu knew that Lin Tingsheng's proposal was probably going to be a scam. Apart from Li Jianhui, members of the Donghua Society, who had abundant funds, even the Dong Ya Li family, one of the four major families in Xiangjiang, also had relatively tight funds.
Although everyone has a net worth of several billion, they are all fictitious. It would be good to have a few hundred million in liquidity that can be mobilized.
If they invest in the Taipei MRT, they will have to find a bank loan. Even if it is a bank they control, they will have to pay the lowest interest, and the loan is not unlimited. Once the amount is too large, it will inevitably cause a run.
The Taipei MRT plan is huge. It would be impossible to build it without tens of billions. How could they waste money on it?
"Don't refuse in a hurry. It's just a preliminary condition at the moment. Everyone should understand the principle of asking for high prices and then paying back the money.
The other party wants 35% of Taipei MRT shares, but it does not say that it wants 35% after the five lines are completed. We can further communicate with the other party in this regard in the future.
For example, if we first establish the Taipei MRT Corporation, we will provide part of the funds to account for 65% of the shares, and the other party will acquire the property development rights for the MRT stations to account for 35% of the shares. If funds are needed for subsequent construction, we can borrow money in the name of the company or carry out financing."
If Lin Tingsheng can really achieve what Lin Tingsheng said, it is not impossible to invest. Li Guobao said: "In this case, it is not impossible. Although investing in Taipei MRT is a bit expensive, it will have a huge influence on our island.
Improvement will be conducive to the development of our industry here.
Jianhui, what’s your opinion on this?”
“I know that in the past two years, everyone has been expanding at a rapid pace and they don’t have much capital in hand.
But as the National Security Brother said, investing in the Taipei MRT also has many benefits for us.
I think so, because of Uncle Lin and Uncle Gu's status here, it is not easy to negotiate with the government, so the national security brother will be responsible for this matter.
We can cooperate with the company if we offer 65% of the company's initial capital within 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, but we must obtain the property development rights for all the five Taipei MRT stations.
If these two conditions are not met, then we will give up this cooperation, and our next focus will be on the two major markets of Southeast Asia and Japan."
Everyone has no objection to the two conditions proposed by Li Jianhui. Although the HKD 3.5 billion for property development rights on the five line stations is a bit cheap, they have invested a lot. It will be difficult for Taipei MRT to bring them enough profits in the short term.
"Jianhui, you also know that I am quite busy, and you are familiar with Dean Sun. Otherwise, you should go and talk to him this time, and we might be able to obtain more favorable conditions for us."
Li Guobao is not idle either. He is responsible for the Bank of East Asia, Chinese Real Estate, the Far East Stock Exchange, East Asia Pictures and East Asia Technology.
"Brother National Security, those who are capable work hard. You also know how many industries I have under my control. I want to be responsible for this but I don't know how to do it. Uncle Lei doesn't seem to have much work recently. You can persuade Uncle Lei to take charge."
How could Lei Juekun be willing to take charge of this? He currently manages many industries, including Kowloon Construction, Kowloon Bus, Art City, Golden Princess Cinemas, and Kowloon Technology.
Before Li Guobao could say anything, Lei Juekun immediately said that he had many things to do, and he was old and frail, and his energy was not as good as before. It was still the young people who were responsible for this matter.
Zhang Guangwen, Feng Jingyao, and Guo Zhiquan also expressed that they were unavailable and had no choice. Li Guobao finally took on the task.
Prepare to go to Taipei tomorrow morning to have preliminary discussions with Sun Yunxuan, and remind Gu Zhenfu and Lin Tingsheng not to leak their bottom line.
