Because of various rumors and the fact that Li Jianhui and others did not come forward to explain, the impact is not only on the stock market, but also on ordinary citizens.
The property market in Xiangjiang has also suffered another setback, with many housing prices falling again. The transaction price of the first government land auction of the new year was far lower than the government expected.
There are also some people who are very anxious. They are also unwilling to see Huihong Group, Wheelock Holdings, Jade Lion Group, etc. change their registration places and headquarters locations.
At such a delicate moment, the Xiangjiang Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce is preparing to hold the first meeting of the new year at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday. President Huo Yingdong personally contacted these members and asked them to attend the meeting.
Although Li Jianhui felt that the Real Estate Construction Chamber of Commerce was of no use at present, Huo Yingdong said so. He did not refute Huo Yingdong's face and came to the conference room of the chamber of commerce headquarters on Thursday morning.
It must be said that this Chinese family in Hong Kong is still very influential. When Li Jianhui came in, he saw Li Guobao, Lei Juekun, Li Zhaoji, Li Chaoren, Bao Yugang and others.
When the time came to half past nine, Huo Yingdong said: "Thank you very much for coming to this meeting. The old year has passed and the new year has arrived. Although the real estate industry in Xiangjiang faced some difficulties last year,
I believe that the future of Xiangjiang is bright.
Don't be pessimistic about the current situation. It is just a temporary setback. As long as we have confidence in Hong Kong, we will be able to maintain Hong Kong's economic development.
Of course, we cannot just wait for the situation to improve, we must actively promote the market to pick up. In this regard, we also hope that everyone can actively contribute ideas and suggestions, and we can work together to change the current situation."
After Huo Yingdong finished speaking, Wang Kuancheng, Hu Yinxiang, Bao Wang and others spoke one after another.
The words imply full confidence in the future. Please don’t panic, let alone worry that your assets will not be protected. There is absolutely no need to learn from Jardine.
At the same time, we hope that those present can send a positive signal to the public, reverse the current pessimism in the market, stabilize the current situation, and avoid further decline in the property market.
We also hope that those present can increase investment in projects in Xiangjiang, especially investment in high-tech industries, so as to stimulate the economic development of Xiangjiang and thereby promote the recovery of the property market.
When it was Li Jianhui's turn to speak, he said: "I won't mention some big problems. Anyway, these are not things we can solve. I only talk about what we can do.
Our population in Xiangjiang is less than 6 million, and the number of real estate companies we own far exceeds market demand. The citizens of Xiangjiang alone cannot support so many real estate companies. Even if we sell our houses at sky-high prices, it will be useless, because the citizens’ income is basically
Just can't bear it.
If so many real estate companies want to develop well, they must bravely go out and explore other regional markets, so that they can develop in the long term.
Of course, I am also very confident about the future of Hong Kong. You don’t need to be anxious about this. Yesterday at the land auction, my subsidiary Xinjian Real Estate acquired many pieces of commercial land in Yuen Long, Sai Kung and North District."
Li Jianhui also stopped at the point. He did not talk too much. How these people develop has nothing to do with him. It can even be said that the bankruptcy of these people's companies will also reduce competitors.
Later, Li Chaoren, Li Zhaoji, Li Guobao, etc. also spoke out, and their words had similar meanings. They were all confident and optimistic about the future. As for what they were thinking in their hearts, it was difficult for outsiders to know.
After the representatives spoke, Huo Yingdong said: "I also believe that the future development of Xiangjiang will not disappoint everyone. As long as we strengthen our confidence, Xiangjiang will only get better and better in the future."
Then there were some exchanges on development, and of course some exchanges on corporate cooperation within small circles.
In the small circle of Tung Wah Club, everyone just chats. After all, many things are not suitable to be discussed on such an occasion.
In the past, this meeting was mainly for everyone to communicate in advance about the land to be auctioned, to avoid internal friction among the Chinese capital, and to cooperate against the British capital consortium.
As time goes by, this meeting has become less and less useful in this regard. Now it would be good if all parties do not compete with each other, let alone cooperation.
So much so that attending the meetings of the Construction Chamber of Commerce is quite boring now. Li Jianhui would not come to attend unless necessary. Since Pan Desheng, Gan Qinglin, and Su Hongtao were present, he didn't worry about not knowing what was going on at the meeting.
Li Jianhui and others knew very well that Huo Yingdong specifically asked them to attend today's meeting. There must be something important. Now that the other party is not in a hurry to mention it, they are not in a hurry either. Anyway, the Donghua Association has not fallen into a downturn due to the property market.
Although he suffered too much loss, he made good profits in the Baodao market.
As time passed slowly, Li Jianhui originally thought it was another boring meeting, but unexpectedly a rather special guest came, the chairman of CITIC Corporation, the head of the Rong family in mainland China.
"I'm very sorry that I came a little late because of the flight delay.
I am not a member of the Real Estate Construction Association. It is a great honor to be invited to attend this meeting today, and I am very happy to meet you.
The main reason I am here today is to let everyone put aside their inner worries and worries, so that everyone can develop their own industries with confidence and boldness.
I don’t know if you all know the Nine Articles issued by Mr. Ye last year, which include protecting the island’s economic system from changes and protecting private property. This aspect is also applied to Hong Kong.
When I come here this time, the central government asked me to tell you that the sovereignty of Xiangjiang must be recovered, but the economic development system will not be changed. Your property will also be protected and your industrial development will not be affected.
Moreover, our mainland is rapidly opening up to the outside world. Xiangjiang, Lisboa, and Baodao capital also enjoy more preferential policies. In some industries, there will be restrictions on foreign capital, but there will be no restrictions on you.
At the same time, please believe that our country is determined to protect our national enterprises. This does not only refer to mainland enterprises, Hong Kong, Lisboa, and Baodao enterprises, but also enterprises of our country and nation, and they are also protected by the government.
At the same time, we also ask you to give us more time. As the reform and opening up continues to advance and the accumulated experience becomes richer, we will gradually liberalize industries that do not involve national defense and some supporting people's livelihood industries, so that everyone can also
Mainland market development.
…”
Li Jianhui really didn't expect that the old man was sent over there and made so many promises. It seemed that the negotiations between the two parties were reaching a critical juncture.
It's no wonder that Huo Yingdong asked him to attend this meeting. The main purpose of this meeting, which lasted for a long time, was to provide a platform for Mr. Rong to meet them.
