Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

Thank you fellow Taoists for your concern. There are quite a lot of messages, so I won’t reply to them one by one. Let me briefly say here that the child is already in the hospital, my brother and my dad are in bed, my wife and I can go there during the day, and my mother is also getting injections and medicines. After the child is discharged from the hospital, I will send her to the system to check.

Let’s not talk about the bad things in my family, let’s talk about the update——publish a chapter first, that chapter will be later, it is being edited, I will try my best to ensure the update!

…

What is Hongkong Land Group in the eyes of Huazi Group?

It's a big piece of Tang Monk meat!

Back then, after old British-funded companies such as Qingzhou Yingni, Hutchison Whampoa, and Wharf were swallowed up by Chinese consortiums one after another, the myth of the invincibility of British consortiums has been completely shattered. The Chinese-funded tycoon, who is getting bigger and bigger and eats fat, began to turn to the next target: Hongkong Land Company.

The temptation of Hongkong Land to Chinese-funded real estate developers is huge. It has a huge portfolio of high-end commercial buildings in a prime location in the Central Banking District, the heart of Xiangjiang's economy, and is known as the "Pearl in the Crown" of Xiangjiang Real Estate. Only by controlling Hongkong Land can we truly be called the "king of kings" in the real estate industry of Xiangjiang.

Three years ago, the rumors about the acquisition of Hongkong Land by Chinese tycoons were in the dust. Some said that Li Ka-shing was collecting shares of Hongkong Land, some said that Li Ka-shing was teaming up with Pao Yugang to challenge Hongkong Land, and even claimed that the big Chinese investors would directly acquire Jardine , Control Landmark through Jardine, there are various rumors.

The situation of Jardine and Hongkong is indeed not good-Jardine is still struggling in overseas operations, and its profits have stagnated. Holding about 20% of Hongkong Land's shares, Hongkong Land's stock price is significantly lower than its net asset value, which is an ideal hunting target.

Facing the crisis, Jardine Matheson's chairman Niu Bijian and Hongkong Land's executive director and general manager Bao Fuda decided to consolidate the equity of the two groups by mutual holding of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land.

To be fair, Niu Bijian and Bao Fuda have done a very good job-mutual holdings, and the Hong Kong government has revised the definition of controlling shares in listed companies from 51% in the past to 35%. The controlling stakes of the two groups, Hebei and Hongkong Land, can be said to be solid, making it difficult for the long-coveted Chinese tycoon to get away.

but--

No matter how strong the defense is, it cannot be disintegrated from the inside.

After consolidating the control of the group, Niu Bijian and Bao Fuda revived their confidence in the prospects of Hong Kong, especially Hongkong Land. A series of unfavorable factors appeared, wantonly expanded, and quickly transformed from a conservative and prudent real estate investor into an active and aggressive real estate developer.

Of course, during this period, Hongkong Land’s profits did increase significantly—in 1980, due to the sale of the shares of Golden Gate Building and Wharf, Hongkong Land’s annual profit was as high as 610 million Hong Kong dollars, which was double that of 1979. In 1981, Hongkong Land's annual profit increased to HK$1.43 billion, more than double that of 1980.

Such brilliant achievements have made the decision-makers of Hong Kong Land, headed by Bao Fuda, abandon the conservative, prudent, and prudent investment strategy they have always pursued, and turn to aggressive, impatient, and speculative.

In just two or three years, Hongkong Land has rapidly expanded into a comprehensive enterprise group with diversified businesses covering real estate investment and development, hotels, retail trade, telecommunications, power supply, etc., and its market value has exploded to nearly 20 billion above.

It can be said that as of the first half of 1981, Hongkong Land's situation was very good!

However--

Because the management of Hongkong Land, headed by Bao Fuda, judged the political and economic situation of Xiangjiang, which was seriously out of touch with the objective reality.

As a result, when the stock market and real estate market both fell, and the real estate market collapsed, Hongkong Land began to suffer serious losses.

To add insult to injury, Xu Cun actually sold out the stocks of the vacant land when Landmark was at its weakest.

Honestly--

If Xu Cun is only doing vacant land, he will not be ordered to have a solid foundation.

But once Xu Cun tore open a big gap in the land, those Chinese capital groups that have been eyeing the land for a long time will definitely come up to bite the land and even Jardine!

Although the Huazi Group is also extremely weak at this time, even so, they will desperately snatch the crown jewel.

Therefore, Landmark and Jardine must not let Xu Cun tear apart or even dismember Landmark!

Is it too much for Xu Cun to want Di Wang and Mira Hotel Old Wing by the waterfront of Hong Kong Island (the shares of Phoenix Terrace are the additions)?

Excessive!

Very excessive!

Extremely excessive!

Although Hongkong Land’s Land King on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island was purchased at a high price of 4.755 billion, and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui’s tourist center area, which was purchased by a consortium with Carrian for 2.8 billion, is still worthwhile. Five billion Hong Kong dollars.

But the account can’t be calculated like this-you must know that Hong Kong Land paid not only money for the land king on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel, but also the advantages that British-funded groups have. In addition, Diwang on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel are treasures with unlimited potential. Therefore, not to mention five billion Hong Kong dollars, even ten billion or two ten billion Hong Kong dollars, Hongkong Land is not willing to sell these two pieces of land!

But what Xu Cun is holding is not five billion Hong Kong dollars, but the lifeline of Landmark! Land including Jardine, as long as they don't want to be eaten by Chinese-owned groups, they have to give up the two precious lands of Land King on the waterfront of Hong Kong Island and the old wing of Miramar Hotel!

From the perspective of Zhidi, Xu Cun's move is taking advantage of the fire, and Xu Cun is also the most despicable predator!

From Xu Cun's point of view, it is not the case - Xu Cun feels that he is a great kind person. Facing Jardine and Landmark, which started their business by selling opium in China G, they only want such a small benefit. What is Xu Cun if he is not a great benevolent person?

Of course, the reason why Xu Cun only wanted the Land King by the Hong Kong Island waterfront and the old wing of the Miramar Hotel was because of the face of You Min and Shen Congee—the two most powerful in Hong Kong Xu Cun can't eat too badly the noodles from the British G guy, can he? After all, there are still fourteen or five years before Xiangjiang's return. During this long fourteen to five years, Xu Cun still has to deal with these two British guys, right?

Although You Min and Shen Porridge had the face, Xu Cun only gave Landmark three hours to think about it—the shopping mall is like a battlefield, and every second must be raced! Therefore, Xu Cun will never give Hongkong Land too long to think about it, so as not to cause any side effects.

...

Does Landmark have the right to choose?

The answer is obvious - three hours later, under the witness of You Min and Shen Porridge, Huangtu Land signed a secret contract with the Hongkong Land Group which was regarded as humiliating and humiliating to the Hongkong Land Group.

Walk out of the HSBC headquarters building.

He Chaoqiong and Lizhi, who had witnessed how Xu Cun rose, couldn't help being infatuated looking at Xu Cun's not-so-tall back—He Chaoqiong and Lizhi discovered by coincidence that they fell in love with this man who repeatedly created miracles, even To the point where I can't extricate myself!

Mei Aifang, who also witnessed all of this, was also infatuated—but, compared with He Chaoqiong and Li Zhi, Mei Aifang's mentality was a little more peaceful.

Several other witnesses—Yuan Tianfan, Wang Xuejie, and Tu Weihua showed varying degrees of admiration for Xu Cun.
