The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang Chapter 414

  Chapter 414 The four British-funded foreign firms united (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  Landmark, President's Office!

   Niu Bijian was sitting on his office chair, holding this morning's "True Pao" in his hand, and the headline on the front page said .

  'The largest real estate project with the largest investment in Xiangjiang's history was born! '

"According to this newspaper, Zhulu Real Estate officially announced the development of its Zhulu Commercial Center today. The entire project is expected to invest 9 billion Hong Kong dollars and will be carried out in 10 phases, which lasted ten years. The first phase plans to build Shangri-La in cooperation with Malaysia Guo Henian Hotel, Zhulu Central Plaza

  The investment of 9 billion Hong Kong dollars has surpassed the previous 2 billion investment of Harbor City, creating a new history.

  History seems to be written by Chu Huan. The former Huaye City and the current Zhulu Commercial Center have been recorded in the history of Xiangjiang's real estate industry.

  Maybe as the land price in Xiangjiang rises, new real estate projects with this scale of investment will surpass the Zhulu Commercial Center, but in terms of land scale, it may not be so easy to find a real estate project with such a large-scale land in Xiangjiang.

   Someone once asked whether the merged Zhulu Real Estate would have surpassed Landmark and become the largest real estate company in Xiangjiang. No one was sure before, but when the Zhulu Commercial Center is completed, maybe this will not be a problem anymore.”

  The real estate project with the largest land area in Xiangjiang is actually Huaye City, but Huaye City is more inclined to a city within a city, which is different from a purely commercial circle like the Zhulu Commercial Center.

  Below Huaye City is Taikoo City of Swire Properties, but the nature of Taikoo City and Huaye City is the same.

  So "Zhenbao" did not compare these two projects with the Zhulu Commercial Center.

  Since a long time ago, Hongkong Land has been the largest real estate company in Hongkong, and because of its favorable location in Central, it is known as the pearl of Hongkong real estate companies.

   Looking at the contents of the newspaper, Niu Bijian frowned slightly.

   But now the status of this pearl has begun to be threatened.

   "Actually, don't worry about this!" Sitting opposite New Bijian was Bao Fuda, the general manager of Landmark.

   At this time, Niu Bijian is also the manager of the three companies Jardine, Landmark, and Wharf. Sometimes it is really difficult to do both, so most of the land matters are still handled by Bao Fuda.

"Why do you say that?"

  New Bijian asked Bao Fuda.

   Bao Fuda said: "The day when Zhulu Real Estate merged, it actually means that Zhulu Real Estate has surpassed Wharf, but Hongkong Land cannot surpass it!"

   At the end of the speech, Bao Fuda looked very confident, and then began to explain.

   "Landmark's basic market is in Central. Although the land prices in Tsim Sha Tsui East and other areas have risen with the passage of the subsea tunnel, there is still a big gap compared with Central Land!"

  Hearing Bao Fuda's explanation, Niu Bijian nodded silently. Central is the financial center of Xiangjiang, and its status is not the same as Tsim Sha Tsui East.

Bao Fuda continued: "According to the newspaper's introduction to Zhulu Commercial Center, although there is a residential area here, more commercial buildings are developed here. Since it is mainly commercial buildings, it means that this place wants to take back The cost is bound to be a long-term matter, and the whole project will severely suppress Chu Huan's cash flow in the past two years.

In this way, we have a chance to develop. Whether it is Wharf Harbor City or Hongkong Landmark, they have already started construction of the commercial center of the competition. In ten years, as long as we can manage Landmark well, we will be able to overwhelm the competition in the future. Real estate is only a matter of time! "

"Where's Chu Huan's terrifying cash flow?" Niu Bijian envied not only Niu Bijian, but the entire Xiangjiang River most envied Chu Huan's current progress, with a monthly profit of 500 million Hong Kong dollars. This kind of income can be said to be a pain in the liver that everyone envies!

  Bao Fuda said with confidence: "In the long run, this is indeed a problem, but judging from the situation in the past two years, although Chu Huan's cash flow will provide him with some help, it is actually not very big!"

   "So, you have studied Chu Huan a lot during this time?"

  Nu Bijian looked at Bao Fuda meaningfully.

  Bao Fuda nodded triumphantly and said, "It is true that I took a look at Chu Huan's recent development, and at the same time asked some friends from other cities to inquire about Chu Huan's situation."

   "Tell me!"

  Bao Fuda said earnestly: "Although many Xiangjiang businessmen now say that Chu Huan is very conservative in doing business, in fact, according to my analysis, Chu Huan's business operations are not conservative at all, even a little radical.

He has dabbled in many industries, including the media industry, comics industry, toy industry, textile industry, real estate industry, and game industry. If you add the business of his fiancee Cao Yunshang, it includes the securities industry, luxury goods industry, and now the construction and decoration industry. Industry.

   None of these industries need cash to develop.

  Most importantly, I also found that Zhulu Real Estate has not started any new projects other than the Zhulu commercial center announced recently. Instead, it has been attacking everywhere and starting to acquire land or some commercial buildings.

   This is not a small investment. "

  Niu Bijian shook his head and said: "Everyone knows what you said. Although these industries will also require Chu Huan to invest some funds, compared to his terrifying cash flow, he can still easily handle it."

Bao Fuda was still full of confidence, and said: "Then I will tell you something that you are too busy to discover. First of all, according to Chu Huan's previous business style, this person pays great attention to the sales channels of products. For this reason, he founded During the period of black and white video, loans were also used to build theaters and build their own studios. After acquiring Jiahu Textile, they tried their best to acquire Li & Fung Group. When they founded "Fantasy Comics", they paved the way for the sales channels of comics. , It was even more exaggerated when it was doing the peripherals of "Fantasy Comics", and even built its own flagship stores all over the world, and all of them bought land.

   Even now, according to my research, the flagship stores of Toys R Us are still expanding rapidly around the world.

  Even in Huaye City, he also has two supporting super factories. I don't think Chu Huan would have thought that his comic industry would be so prosperous before building the factory, right?

  So in my opinion, the workers in those two factories are more prepared for the Huaye City project.

If it is analyzed from this angle, I think according to Chu Huan's habit, since he has established a wolf smoke game, he will definitely have to do his own sales channels in the future. Huge investment.

  Finally, it is Chu Huan's overseas investment! "

   "Overseas investment?" Niu Bijian was stunned for a moment and asked, "What investment does Chu Huan have overseas?"

Bao Fuda nodded, and said: "That's right, in Japan Chu Huan acquired Nikkatsu Film Co., Ltd., became a shareholder of Seibu Group, and planned to establish a joint venture with Seibu Group to establish a real estate company. In addition, I also found out that Chu Huan raised a This sum of money is going to invest in real estate in Japan with some wealthy families in Xiangjiang.

   As can be expected, this is definitely not a small investment.

  At the same time, I also found out that Chu Huan invested in a film in Hollywood. Although the investment was not large, only a few million dollars, it already showed that Chu Huan definitely wanted to let his black and white images enter the Hollywood film market.

   Especially now that his good friend Li Xiaolong has gained a firm foothold in Hollywood.

  It is impossible for him to give up this opportunity.

  So according to my analysis, whether it is energy or cash, Chu Huan's hands must be very tight, otherwise he would not have borrowed from the four major banks! "

  Niu Bijian looked at Bao Fuda in shock and asked, "I didn't expect you to investigate Chu Huan so thoroughly!"

   Bao Fuda smiled reservedly: "Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that at this stage, our biggest opponent in Xiangjiang is no longer the three foreign firms, but Chu Huan.

  For our opponents, I always think that we should give the greatest respect! "

   "You are talking about opponents, not enemies!" Niu Bijian laughed.

   Bao Fuda chuckled, and said: "There are only eternal interests in the mall, and there are no eternal enemies. I think that as long as there are interests to be gained, anyone is our potential partner, let alone someone like Chu Huan.

Before Shen Bi thought about one thing wrong, he took the lead in treating Chu Huan as his enemy instead of an opponent, so he wanted to suppress Chu Huan instead of cooperating with Chu Huan. The consequences are also obvious to all.

  At this time, Shen Bi was suppressed by Roy Bentley in HSBC. "

Niu Bijian once again agreed with Bao Fuda's statement, but Niu Bijian also had his own thoughts: "From the perspective of this competition in the commercial center, we can find that Chu Huan is a very thoughtful and ambitious person. If such a person cooperates, if one is not careful, he may be eaten by the other party until there is no scum left.

  The most important thing is that our relationship with Shen Bi is different from before. We need Shen Bi's support from HSBC, and Shen Bi also needs our support.

Otherwise, if Roy Bentley becomes HSBC's top class in the end, then HSBC's resources will definitely be poured into Chu Huan's side. So for us, Chu Huan is an enemy at this time. As for whether he will become a partner in the future, Just look at the situation at the time! "

  This has nothing to do with personal grievances, but a choice for the company's interests.

   Just as the two of them were finishing their conversation, Shen Bi called. After hearing Shen Bi's description on the phone, Niu Bijian's expression also changed.

   "See you in Xiangjiang!"

   Shen Bi's life is really not easy recently.

  The blueprint of Zhulu Commercial Center has come out, and HSBC Bank has also participated in it, but Shen Bi was turned away by Chu Huan once again!

This is a very sad story for Shen Bi. At the HSBC celebration ball, Shen Bi had already shown his affection to Chu Huan on his own initiative. Even after the ball, the two parties made an appointment to watch a horse race. I won 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, but the final result is still .

Chu Huan found Sha Ya, and said that although he and Shen Bi had lost all the grievances in the past, at HSBC, Chu Huan believed in Roy Bentley the most. Roy Bentley cooperation, otherwise give up this cooperation with HSBC.

  After weighing the pros and cons, Sha Ya reluctantly agreed to Chu Huan's request.

  After Shen Bi found out about this, he smashed a teacup in his office viciously!

   Now that Roy Bentley has returned to HSBC with the matter of cooperation with Chu Huan, it can be foreseen that through this cooperation, Roy Bentley's status in HSBC must be getting higher and higher.

   On the contrary, I will naturally be marginalized.

And what worries Shen Bi the most is Sha Ya's attitude at this time. In the past, Sha Ya was still willing to support her, but since Chu Huan helped Sha Ya acquire Ocean Milan Bank, Sha Ya's attitude towards Chu Huan was obvious. There has been a change.

  If even Sha Ya is bought by Chu Huan, then I don't have to think about getting the position of HSBC Taipan after two years.

   There must be an action.

  After thinking about this, Shen Bi sat on his chair and made four calls!

   Xiangjiang Club!

  Jardine's taipan Niu Bijian, Swire's taipan Shiyoke Swire, Wheelock's taipan John Madden, Hehe International's taipan Qi Dezun, plus Shen Bi, the general manager of HSBC Bank!

  Although the four major British-funded foreign firms overlap in many businesses, and even started with trading firms before, they are now different and have their own emphasis.

  Jardines' current business is mainly based on Jardines, with Landmark and Wharf divided into two wings. At the same time, it also owns Mandarin Oriental, a group company that ranks first in the Hong Kong hotel industry.

  Swire's traditional business is trade, shipping, docking, and manufacturing.

  Before the rise of Chinese-owned ship kings, the Dagu Fleet was the largest in the British-owned shipping industry. The Taikoo Dockyard, the Navy Dockyard, and the Huangpu Dockyard were listed as the three major shipbuilding and ship repair bases in Xiangjiang.

Later, Swire acquired Cathay Pacific Airways and became the first of the four foreign firms in Xiangjiang to dabble in the aviation industry. Cathay Pacific was not founded by Swire, but was registered in Xiangjiang in 1946 by two American and Australian businessmen, but it was not until 48 In 2010, it was already unable to continue operating due to the crisis, and then Swire acquired Cathay Pacific with the support of the Hong Kong government.

  At that time, Xiangjiang passengers were superstitious about British Airways, American Airlines, and Air France. Cathay Pacific had a very difficult life, let alone making a profit. But Cathay Pacific is well positioned.

  The Hong Kong government implements one route per company in accordance with international practice.

  For example, the route from Paris to Hong Kong is only allowed to operate by Air France. According to the peer-to-peer relationship, Hong Kong local airlines also set up flights on this route, and the flights are equal.

  Like Air France has two flights a week, Cathay Pacific, the only local airline in Hong Kong, can also set up the same flight, but the flight dates and times are staggered. Airlines, flights and other matters are negotiated and determined by the two sides with the participation of the governments of the two places.

  With the support of the Hong Kong government, the development of Cathay Pacific Airways has been rapid, and then Taikoo established Xiangjiang aircraft engineering, aviation services, aviation food and other businesses. Since then, Taikoo has basically monopolized Xiangjiang's aviation industry.

  At the same time, Swire is also one of the largest partners of CocCola in the world, and has the exclusive right to sell CocCola in Southeast Asia and some European countries!

  And the Shihuaiya family's vision is very sharp. It was only during the second oil crisis that the charter king decided on the plan to abandon the ship and land.

  The Shihuaiya family was earlier than the charter king. During the first oil crisis, they had decisively given up the shipping industry. The symbol was to transform the former Taikoo Dockyard into the famous Taikoo City in Hong Kong.

Last year, Swire Properties announced that it will build a comprehensive development housing estate such as commercial centers, schools, theaters and residential buildings in the Taikoo Dockyard area with an area of ​​2.3 million square feet. There are high-end residential buildings ranging from 32 floors to 32 floors, with more than 10,000 residential units, which can accommodate 45,000 people, and a huge commercial shopping center - Taikoo Shing Centre.

  The entire plan is expected to take 8 years, with a total investment of about 1.35 billion yuan.

  At that time, because this project was very close to Huaye City, and even surpassed Huaye City in terms of investment, it was widely reported by the Xiangjiang media, and some media claimed that this was the most powerful counterattack against Huaye City by British foreign firms!

  This year, the Taikoo Shing project has started construction.

  So at this time, Taikoo is a large consortium based on the aviation industry, supplemented by the real estate industry, and various other companies.

In later generations, Jardine relocated, and Wharf was acquired by the Bao Yugang family to buy land. Jardine was repeatedly missed by Chinese consortia. into Bao Yugang's hands.

  Only because of its supervisory business strategy and precise analysis of the situation, Taikoo has not been remembered by Chinese businessmen. Instead, after the return of Xiangjiang, it actively moved closer to its hometown and continued to develop smoothly.

Wheelock, if the Swire Swire family can discover the future development of the shipping industry in time and stop developing their own shipping business, then Wheelock is the representative of the first iron, and they are still working hard to develop their own shipping industry .

   As for Hehe International, there is no need to introduce too much.

  However, the fact that the general manager of HSBC and the executives of the four major foreign firms gathered here at this time can prove that a major event in an absolute sense will happen here today.

  Qi Dezun sat there and looked at the calm-looking Niu Bijian, Shiyoke Shihuaiya, and John Madden who looked as confused as himself, and understood one thing.

   Niu Bijian and Shiyerke Swire must know the purpose of this meeting, but he and John Madden were kept in the dark.

   "Mr. Shen, this time you invited the four of us here, I'm afraid it's not as simple as just drinking?"

  Qi Dezun is the most relaxed at this time, Hehe International is getting back on track, although Hehe International is no longer his own, but no one knows.

  So now Hehe International has come out of the mud again, and the whole Xiangjiang's evaluation of itself has undergone earth-shaking changes again.

  Among these comments, Qi Dezun likes the content of a tabloid the most. The words on it are not so elegant and precise, but there is one sentence that Qi Dezun likes very much.

  It probably means that if I, Qi Dezun, can lead Hehe International to become one of the four major foreign firms in Xiangjiang, then I can lead Hehe International back to the top.

   Awesome person, no need for too much explanation!

   Qi Dezun likes this kind of evaluation very much.

  He likes this straightforward and sincere statement.

  When he received a call from Shen Bi today, Qi Dezun was a little puzzled. The relationship between them and HSBC is not very good!

  Shen Bi looked at Qi Dezun with a smile, and said calmly: "The situation of Hehe International has improved recently, and it is all thanks to you, Mr. Qi Dezun. I personally admire Mr. Qi Dezun's courage to break his wrist!"

  Qi Dezun became more and more vigilant. After coming to Xiangjiang, he learned a lot of slang words about Huaguo.

  Before, I was always upset with my HSBC, but now I suddenly talk like this, there must be something wrong!

But no matter what Qi Dezun thought, he didn't show it. He just said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, if you have anything to do, just point it out directly. You have been in Xiangjiang for so long, so you must have learned the fake manners of the Hua people." Bar?"

  Shen Bi's expression froze. If it was in the past, he would definitely walk away, but now it is different. Under the management of Qi Dezun, Hehe International has regained its vitality, and there are already signs of getting out of the quagmire.

  So he needs Hehe International.

"Since Mr. Qi Dezun said so, then I won't go around in circles anymore!" Shen Bi said seriously: "Although Hehe International has made a turn for the better, I think Hehe International must still need cash very much. If Mr. Qi Dezun If necessary, I can arrange for HSBC to provide Hehe International with a loan of 80 million Hong Kong dollars!"

Qi Dezun looked at Shen Bi calmly, and there was not much joy in his eyes. It was just as Qi Dezun always thought: Justice late is not the same as justice. When he needed a bank loan the most, HSBC chose to reject him. Now I don't need it here, but HSBC has popped up again, which is really ridiculous.

   "I don't think Mr. Shen will provide us with this loan for no reason, right?"

  Qi Dezun decided to first see what purpose Shen Bi was fighting for.

Shen Bi chuckled and said, "If you want to talk about the purpose, it's actually not a purpose. I just hope that Hehe International can return to the position he should be in the hands of Mr. Qi Dezun, just like my position in HSBC. of."

  In fact, what Shen Bi wants to do more is to gather the four major foreign firms and jointly deal with Chu Huan.

  But this time Shen Bi did not explain in such a hurry, there are two reasons for this.

The first reason is that Shen Bi knew that this time Hehe International could get out of the quagmire. Chu Huan's Jiaku consultant had made great efforts. Shen Bi even suspected that there was some secret transaction between Chu Huan and Qi Dezun. When Qi Dezun retired, Hehe International belonged to Chu Huan!

The second reason is that Shen Bi followed Li Jiacheng's suggestion and could no longer be an enemy of Chu Huan in a blatant manner. After all, he is not yet the top class of HSBC. It's not easy to clarify the matter, if there is really a secret deal between Qi Dezun and Chu Huan, wouldn't he be directly exposed to Chu Huan?

  So Shen Bi vaguely reminded Qi Dezun that he did this in the hope of gaining the support of Hehe International.

  At this time, everyone in Xiangjiang knew that Roy Bentley was competing with himself for the position of HSBC's next taipan, and the biggest supporter behind Roy Bentley was Chu Huan.

  Qi Dezun understood Shen Bi's meaning, and showed a dazed expression, "So that's the case. If Mr. Shen can help Hehe International, I would be very grateful personally!"

  Shen Bi smiled, knowing what he meant would be easy!

   Then Shen Bi looked at Wheelock's big class, John Madden.

   "Mr. Madden, I know that your company has always wanted the Princess of World Shipping. I can mediate this matter. I think Bao Yugang is also willing to give me this face!"

John Madden immediately showed a high-spirited expression. Bao Yugang and him have been friends for many years, but even so, he still failed to buy the Princess from Bao Yugang's hands. If he added a HSBC, John Madden thought that Bao Yugang would definitely not be able to save face.

  If they can own the Princess, Wheelock Shipping will go to a higher level, and these real estate companies in Xiangjiang have won a top-level commercial building!

  Simply speaking, the Princess is like the current Jardine Kangle Building!

   Jardine once thought of buying the Princess from Bao Yugang's hands, but at that time Bao Yugang proposed the Kangle Building as the condition. Later, Jardine rejected Bao Yugang's proposal after some consideration.

  Although Jardine did not agree to Bao Yugang's request, from Jardine's consideration, the Princess is comparable to the Kangle Building.

   "Mr. Shen's suggestion makes people feel excited. I have always said that Shen is always one of our best friends at Wheelock at HSBC!"

  John Madden smiled and preached to Mr. Shen.

  Although the words were not clear, the meaning was already understood. If Shen Bi helped John Madden buy Bao Yugang's Princess, then John Madden would be willing to support Shen Bi's ascension to the position of HSBC Taipan.

   "If that's the case, then Mr. Madden will wait for my good news!"

   Shen Bi said with a smile.

  John Madden nodded slightly.

   Then, together with Qi Dezun, they looked at Niu Bijian and Shiyok Shihuaiya who were sitting on the other side.

  John Madden and Qi Dezun also wanted to know what benefits Shen Bi would promise them.

However, to the disappointment of John Madden and Qi Dezun, the two sides did not discuss any details, but just chatted casually. Obviously, before the two of them knew it, they had reached some kind of mutual assistance. agreement.

  The five of them didn't talk for too long. After a while, Niu Bijian got up and took the lead to say goodbye. Niu Bijian's departure heralded the end of the meeting between the two parties.

  Shen Bi made an appointment with John Madden to watch the horse race together, and Qi Dezun to play golf together, and personally sent the two to the gate of the Xiangjiang Club.

  As for Niu Bijian and Shiyoke Shihuaiya, they have already left first.

   After Qi Dezun got into the car, he said directly: "Go home!"

  He looked at the time and knew that Chu Huan should have arrived in Tokyo by this time.

   But Shen Bi did not leave the Xiangjiang Club, but came to another private room of the Xiangjiang Club, where Li Jiacheng sat alone.

   "Congratulations to Mr. Shen, you have managed Hehe International, Wheelock, Jardine and the three British-owned foreign firms in one go, and now you are only too far away!" Li Jiacheng smiled and got up and preached after Shen Bi came to the room.

  Shen Bi showed a smug smile, this was the only time he was truly happy during this time.

  Chu Huan put too much pressure on herself before.

Qi Dezun, John Madden wants to know how Shen Bi persuaded Niu Bijian and Shiyoke Shihuaiya. It is actually very simple. Shen Bi only needs to tell Niu Bijian the improved conversation between Chu Huan and Sha Ya. When Ibentley takes the position of HSBC Taipan, Chu Huan will buy 5% of Jardine's shares from HSBC.

  Chu Huan's goal in Xiangjiang has always been to win Yihe. In this case, even if Niu Bijian didn't want to stand by Shen Bi's side, it would be impossible.

   "Chu Huan was careless this time after all, but it also gave us a chance, very good!"

  Shen Bi said with a smile: "With the support of the four major British foreign firms this time, my bargaining chip in HSBC will surpass Roy Bentley again!"

  Li Jiacheng was stunned for a moment: "Shiyoke Shihuaiya has also agreed to support you, Mr. Shen?"

  Shen Bi smiled confidently: "The four major foreign firms, the three major foreign firms have all chosen to support me, will Taikoo be far behind?"

  Chu Huan had indeed arrived in Tokyo, but before he rested, he received a call from Qi Dezun.

   "I see, you deal with them first, and I will take care of the rest!"

  After Chu Huan hung up the phone, he fell into silence. He was indeed careless.

   I owed you another chapter yesterday. If you make a mistake, you have to stand at attention. Don't make excuses. I will continue to repay the debt this month~~
