Chapter 191 Successful Cooperation and Conspiracy Bus Company
A week later, Sanders brought several people from HSBC Bank to Changxing Industrial.
Of course Yang Wendong personally took them to visit the sticky note factory and then to the nearby trolley case factory.
“It will indeed be very troublesome to ship this thing overseas.” Sanders said after twisting the box.
Yang Wendong nodded and said: "Yes, this box takes up too much space on the ship. The cost of using the normal shipping mode is too high."
At this time, a young ghost guy next to Sanders suddenly asked: "Eric, this box is all empty. Since it is too light, why don't you put some sticky notes from our previous visit? Isn't this the weight of the box?" It's heavier and saves space."
".?" Yang Wendong was speechless for a while. If he hadn't known that the young man in front of him was the child of a senior executive at HSBC, he would have wanted to drive him away.
"Tailun, this won't work." Sanders was also helpless towards the rich second generation around him, and he dared to ask this kind of question in front of others.
However, he still explained: "The cost of putting two different products together is too high. People need to put them in one by one. The cost here in Hong Kong is not high, but in Europe and the United States, can we let it go again? Are European and American workers taking them out one by one?"
"Yes." Yang Wendong also said: "It is not cost-effective, and both products have their own batches, and mixing them will only cause confusion. ;
And more importantly, during the installation and handling process, it is very likely that the product will be damaged, which is impossible to control. "
Tailun was silent. He didn't think much about it. The Chinese in front of him was obviously younger than him, but he felt that he knew a lot more than him.
Sanders met Taillon He stopped talking, and then said to Yang Wendong: "So Yang Sheng is now entering the shipping industry for his own transportation? "
"Yes. Yang Wendong nodded and said, "This is considered the first goal. If the shipping industry develops well in the future, I will also invest further." "
"Haha~" Sanders said with a smile: "It seems that Hong Kong will have another shipping king in the future. ”
Yang Wendong asked: "Mr. Sanders, if I want to buy a boat, can I get a loan from HSBC?"
After a moment of silence, Sanders said: "If it is a new ship and you can find another If a bank also cooperates in lending, then we, HSBC, can participate, but not second-hand ships. "
"Okay, then when I buy a new ship, I will definitely consider HSBC." Yang Wendong smiled and asked again. Said: "Has HSBC ever had such a cooperation case?"
"Not yet." Sanders said: "But I am prepared to carry out such cooperation with a shipowner in Hong Kong."
< br>"Who is it?" Yang Wendong had already guessed it, but still asked.
Sanders said: "His name is Bao Yugang. You must have heard of it, right?"
"Yes." Yang Wendong nodded. It seemed that it was already the time for Bao Yugang to take off.
Sanders added: "My request to him is to obtain a letter of credit from the Bank of Japan. This condition is not easy."
"Haha, maybe he will succeed. Yang Wendong smiled, and then said: "Mr. Sanders, let's discuss our cooperation?"
"Okay." Sanders nodded,
Yang Wendong said: "Then let's go to the conference room over there."
Then, several people arrived at the conference room together;
After greetings for a while, Sanders said: "Yang Sheng, this For the sub-loan, HSBC can participate, but we need half of the amount."
"Yes." Yang Wendong readily agreed. It is the lender's right to borrow how much money from which bank.
Even if HSBC wants the entire quota, it is not a problem, but HSBC will probably want to share the risk equally;
In business investments or loans, large consortiums and large banks will try to unite and cooperate with multiple resources to reduce risks.
Sanders added: "In addition to the loan repayment time, we need to pay it off within 3 years. I saw the information you provided and based on Changxing Industrial's demand for raw materials, this time should be enough."< br>
"There is no problem on my side." Yang Wendong thought for a while and then said: "I will talk to the partner over at Wanwan, but it should be the same."
"OK "Sanders said: "As for the subsequent interest, I will send someone to Wanwan to negotiate."
"No problem, I have people there too," Yang Wendong said with a smile. Able to cooperate successfully as soon as possible.”
Sanders smiled and said: "Me too, I hope that after this cooperation is successful, we can have more levels of cooperation."
"No problem." Yang Wendong said: "In the future, I will have some experience in real estate. The investment will come from HSBC.”
“Then I wish us a happy cooperation,” Sanders stood up and shook hands.
The same goes for Yang Wendong.
In the next 20 years, Hong Kong will still be owned by HSBC and there will be no conflict with itself, so there will naturally be cooperation.
...
On the Wanwan side, a joint banking group from Hong Kong soon arrived, but the main body was still HSBC. Hang Seng and Liao Chuangxing could be said to be soy sauce.
Yang Wendong did not go to Wanwan, but he was also paying attention there. In the end, after almost half a month of negotiation, Fu Mao reached an agreement with HSBC Bank and successfully obtained a loan of US$500,000.
"Lao Wei, although we do not participate in the management of Fumao, supervision is still indispensable." Yang Wendong said after reading all the information:
"It is not just about arranging our work. The financial person also has to find a way to bribe the original Fumao person. I don’t need this person to do anything illegal for me, but I need to know what’s going on with Fumao;
In addition, we must also be wary of Wang Yongqing. He is very capable and is naturally good for opening factories, but we must also be cautious as to whether he may have any private thoughts. ”
Investing in a company that was relatively powerful in its previous life does not mean that it will be safe and sound.
The simplest example is Yahoo and Sun Zhengyi’s investment in Alibaba. Although they made a lot of profits in the end, they still I was fooled by Boss Ma
If it was just an ordinary investment, the founder would have his own little idea, as long as it was not outrageous, but Fumao was also an important part of his future industrial planning, so he had to do it. Be cautious.
“Okay. "Wei Zetao agreed and said: "I will let the people over there in Wanwan look for such an opportunity. ”
The time has come quickly to October.
On this day, Yang Wendong came to Hong Kong China Building.
Zheng Zhijie came to report, handed over several documents, and said: "Yang Sheng, our new building and the sketch of the new real estate."
"Okay." Yang Wendong took the documents and looked at them He glanced at the first page and said, "What are you planning to call this new building?"
Zheng Zhijie replied, "We haven't named it yet. Does Yang Sheng have any ideas?"
Yang Wendong thought for a while and said: "Let's call it Geely Building."
He couldn't think of a good name either. He originally thought of calling it Changxing, but this name is his company's signature, so he would rather leave it empty. Don't give it to a 10-story office building first.
When you are able to acquire the core building in Central in the future, or buy the land yourself to build a higher-rise building, you can then name it with the word "Changxing".
As for "Geely", it's okay to put it on the building. In his previous life, he drove a Geely car. These two words fit the name of the building.
"Okay." Zheng Zhijie agreed and then asked: "What about this sketch?"
"There is nothing attractive about ordinary buildings like this. They are basically the same, square and square." Yang Wendong took a rough look and found that they were quite satisfactory and had no problems, so he said, "Let's decide according to the best utilization efficiency."
Before the emergence of large-scale skyscrapers, high-rise buildings were nothing special. They were probably in the core commercial areas of Central. Various circumstances needed to be taken into consideration.
Zheng Zhijie said with a smile: "Yes, ordinary buildings are basically the same. Then you are taking a look at our residential properties." "Yeah." Yang Wendong turned to the second page, which was the previous page of the Admiralty. The plot of land is about to be built.
Zheng Zhijie said: "On this piece of land, we plan to build 412 residences, with three main house types, one 1,008 square feet, one 826 square feet, and one 633 square feet.
Among them, the one with a thousand square feet has four bedrooms, and the others have three bedrooms. The interior design is also designed to optimize utilization. These pictures are the floor plans. ”
“It looks pretty good. Yang Wendong looked at it carefully for a while and said, "When do you plan to start construction?" "
Thousands of feet is actually about 90 square meters, and 600 feet is just over 50 square meters. With such a small area, it would have been ridiculous to make a four-bedroom and three-bedroom apartment in the mainland in the past life.
But This is Hong Kong, so it’s normal.
Besides, times are different. Even after the reform, the per capita living area in the Mainland is actually very small.
"Early next month." Zheng Zhijie replied: "The land over there still needs a little processing before the foundation can be laid. It is estimated that the bottom floor will be completed in December, and all the houses will be completed in August next year."
"When can we start selling off-the-plan properties?" Yang Wendong asked again.
In the real estate business, the most important thing is the time to sell off-the-plan property. The sooner you can recover the funds, and then move on to the next project, so that money can continue to generate money.
Zheng Zhijie said: "It can be done at any time, but if our building has not started construction, many people will not believe it. If it cannot be sold when it is launched, it will be in trouble as soon as it is exposed by the media.
So we have to wait until around November or December, when construction starts, before we start selling off-the-plan properties.”
"Okay." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Then just before November, find a place to build a model house next to the real estate, and the interior decoration should be better.
In the future, we will sell off-the-plan properties Afterwards, I will take my clients in to have a look.”
Yang Wendong has also visited some properties before. When he was free, he accompanied Lin Haoyu to buy a house, and he also saw the promotion of Times Real Estate Company. method.
A few pieces of paper are hung on the blackboard with the floor plan on it, and then consumers are fooled into ordering off-the-plan property.
Although it is a bit rough, without comparison, consumers think it is normal and will still buy what they should buy.
Zheng Zhijie said with a smile: "If we sell like this, the property will probably be snapped up like crazy."
"It doesn't matter if it's really popular. If it's really popular, just raise the price." Yang Wendong doesn't care either.
It is not a necessity of life, he does not care about the price increase, everything is market demand.
Although a house is also one of the "food, clothing, housing and transportation", it refers to a shelter from wind and rain, not residences, offices, shops, etc. in luxury areas of Hong Kong Island.
Zheng Zhijie agreed and said: "Okay, let's take a look at the sales of the first off-plan property. If the sales are good, the price can be increased later."
"Well, OK." Yang Wendong said again: "Pay attention to the decoration. This will be the selling point of our brand in the future. The service must be good in this area. Cutting corners is absolutely not allowed in the decoration ordered by customers."
" Understood, Yang Sheng." Zheng Zhijie replied.
Yang Wendong asked again: "Have you acquired any suitable theaters during this period?"
Zheng Zhijie shook his head and said: "No, there are very few theaters on Hong Kong Island that have closed deals. I basically go After asking, no one is willing to sell.
Now I will focus on choosing a suitable place and build a cinema after buying the land.”
"Okay." Yang Wendong thought for a while and said, "Now we have almost ten theaters, right?"
"Yes, there are two on Hong Kong Island, eight in Kowloon, and The family is still next to Changxing Industrial," Zheng Zhijie replied.
Yang Wendong asked: "How did you operate during this period?"
Zheng Zhijie said: "We haven't established a special theater chain yet, we just operate it independently. I dug some and did it. Let them manage the cinema and be responsible for cooperating with the film company and introducing movies."
Yang Wendong nodded and said: "Okay, let's run it under the real estate company first. Later, there will be more. At one o'clock, I will separate these theaters and set up a theater chain company."
At present, he has no plans to enter the film field so soon. He will first stabilize several of his core industries.
"Okay." Zheng Zhijie said: "Yang Sheng, there is one more thing. You asked me to investigate the situation of the two bus companies in Hong Kong before, and I have already investigated it clearly."
"Oh, let's hear it." Yang Wendong became interested.
The bus industry itself is not very profitable, but it controls the "industry" in Hong Kong and is considered a small influence.
In addition, buses are of great help to real estate companies. Not to mention that these bus companies have land in many places because they developed early.
If you control the bus company, you can easily add routes, which is a very big advantage for real estate buying and selling.
“Both bus companies were established in the 1930s, among which Kowloon Bus was founded by Deng Shiu Kin, Lei Ruide, Lei Liang and others.” Zheng Zhijie gradually introduced the situation of the two companies: “China and Bus The founders are Yan Chengkun and Huang Wangcai."
After spending more than ten minutes, Yang Wendong had a rough understanding of the situation of the two companies, and then asked: "In other words, these two bus companies will be very Is it going to be listed soon? "
"Yes, the Hong Kong government is already promoting the policy that public utility companies must be listed," Zheng Zhijie replied: "KMB has already decided to go public next year, and CMB is not yet ready. But it’s only recently, otherwise he may be deprived of the exclusive rights.”
“Well, do you think we can acquire a controlling stake in one of them?” Yang Wendong thought for a while and asked. .
In the 1980s, both CMB and KMB were spotted by big capital and initiated mergers and acquisitions.
There are many reasons, which are enough to illustrate its value. However, it is too early for me to travel through time now, and I cannot really wait until the 1980s to fight for it.
If you can’t even change history, why would you call yourself a time traveler? If there are good things, you must first find ways to get them.
Zheng Zhijie also knew the boss's purpose and was not surprised. Instead, he said: "From the information I have so far, it is difficult for KMB, but it is possible for CMB."
" Oh, why?" Yang Wendong asked.
Zheng Zhijie analyzed: "There are five founders of KMB, but they have a good relationship. Even if it goes public in the future, we will not be able to buy enough shares unless we pay a high price that they cannot refuse.
And On the China-Pakistan side, although there are only two founders, one of them Mr. Huang Wangcai has passed away, and his stocks have been handed over to his descendants. The management rights of China Pakistan Company are also in Yan Chengkun's family. There is also a big conflict between the two families. The Huang family also wants to compete for the management rights of China Pakistan Company.
There are even rumors that it was due to serious internal conflicts between the two families that the The launch date of CMB has never been determined."
"Well, this is a good opportunity. This kind of castle is easier to break from the inside." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Then it will be. The target is CMB. CMB’s headquarters and many properties are on Hong Kong Island. It makes more sense to come and see it.”
As for the bus business, KMB’s future potential is higher than that of CMB. Because Kowloon is larger and has a larger population in the future, its exclusive business will naturally be stronger. , this will be the same in the electricity market in the future, and China Electric Power will be stronger than Hong Kong Electric.
But the most valuable thing in Hong Kong is real estate. CMB and Hong Kong Electric have been operating on Hong Kong Island for many years and have a large amount of high-quality land in their hands. This is what real estate companies are more optimistic about.
Two specialized companies in the same industry in Hong Kong cannot be controlled by one person. If given the choice between the two, Yang Wendong would also choose CMB.
Zheng Zhijie said with a smile: "Yes, since our Changxing Real Estate Company has decided to take the high-end residential route, we will also invest in Hong Kong Island for the long term in the future;
With CMB, It will also be very helpful for our real estate business.”
“Okay.” Yang Wendong said, “We don’t know when CMB will be listed yet. Let’s find a way to contact the descendants of the Huang family first.”
