Chapter 329 Success
Return to the company.
Minori Mori was sitting on the sofa recalling today's meeting with Xu Liang.
Thoughts appeared on his face.
Dong dong….
A sudden knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.
“Come in.”
With the sound of the door opening, a slightly thin old man wearing a black suit walked in.
Go straight to sit opposite him.
“Xu Liang refused?”
Minoru Mori looked at his younger brother, "He said that Taihua Real Estate is a family asset and refuses outside investment."
"As expected, from Hanhua's several investments, it can be seen that Xu Liang is a very good person." Bold investors, including their recently established Qinglong, Xuanwu and Phoenix funds, are all levered several times.
But Taihua Real Estate’s operating strategy is so conservative, which is obviously a long-term investment plan. The characteristics of family assets." Mori Zhang smiled.
Minori Mori nodded slightly and sighed: "It's a pity."
"It's no pity. Without Xu Liang, we can cooperate with others. There is no lack of willingness in the Chinese real estate industry. Real estate elites who cooperate with us," Mori Zhang said.
Minoru Mori shook his head, "Although there are many powerful companies in the Huaxia real estate industry, their operating strategies are too crazy. The leverage ratio often exceeds 100% or even 150%. Once the real estate downturn occurs, it will be difficult to survive. is the problem.
Although the real estate companies in Xiangjiang and Nanyang are stable, they do not lack capital and connections, so they do not need to cooperate with us.
To sum up, Xu Liang is the most suitable, but it is a pity. He refused. "
"It seems that the Magic City Global Financial Center is not very tempting to him... By the way, Hanhua has a Xuanwu Real Estate Investment Fund. If you really want to invest in the Chinese real estate market. To make money, you can invest in it."
Minori Mori shook his head and said: "I have learned about this fund. The 80% leverage is too high."
"Haha, my dear brother is starting to pay attention to risks now."
Hearing this, Minoru Mori touched the white hair on his head and couldn't help but think of the time when he was a man of influence in the real estate industry when he was young.
"I am already old. Now I just want to pass the group to Haosheng safely."
Sen Zhang looked at his white-haired brother, who was showing his age, with a look on his face. I can't help but reveal my memories.
It took a long time to recover.
"If the price Xu Liang gives is right, then sell the Magic World Financial Center. After September 11, the leasing rate of super high-rise office buildings around the world has been declining.
And the design of the Magic World Financial Center The height has been surpassed by Taipei 101 and Xiangjiang International Commerce Center. Without the reputation of the world's tallest building, its attention will also decline. "
Mori Minoru nodded, this is what he is worried about.
Originally, he planned to rebuild the World Financial Center last year, but the incident of 9/11 made him hesitate again.
In addition, Tokyo’s landmark building ‘Mori Building’, with an investment of hundreds of billions of yen, has also reached a critical period.
This building named after the group is a treasure of Mori Building Co., Ltd. and cannot allow any accidents.
Most of the funds within the group must be provided to it.
This is also one of the reasons for the suspension of work at the Shanghai World Financial Center.
——
“Mr. Xu, the contract for Yangcheng Zhongcheng Plaza has been signed, and the overall purchase price is 530 million Chinese dollars.”
"It's done well. ...By the way, how are the talks in Hangzhou going?"
"We are still talking, but the specific land parcel has been decided."
"Where?" Xu Liang asked curiously.
"It is adjacent to Yan'an Road in the east, Changshou Road in the west, Ha'er Lane in the north, and Qingchun Road in the south. It is no more than two kilometers away from the West Lake and covers an area of 101 acres. It was originally the site of the Binhu Campus of Zhejiang University. (later known as Hangzhou Kerry Center). ”
Although Xu Liang does not have a map of Hangzhou, any place close to the West Lake is definitely a prime location in Hangzhou.
"Yes, hurry up and finalize the project. The price can be slightly higher."
"Understood."
"The main task of Taihua this year is to acquire land, especially in the mainstream of first-tier cities. The more business districts and CBDs, the better,” Xu Liangdao said.
“Yes.”
“Also, for the unfinished building we took down, you can immediately negotiate for a bank loan and try to rebuild it as soon as possible. The newly purchased land will be put aside first, don’t be in a hurry. Development." Xu Liangdao.
Anyway, the new land can be left vacant for two years, and it is not too late to start construction after two years.
At this stage, taking advantage of the low land prices, it is wise to seize land as soon as possible.
After explaining to Lu Jue, Xu Liang hung up the phone.
Lu Hui came over with the phone in hand.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Minoru Mori invites you to have dinner."
A smile appeared on Xu Liang's face, "It seems he agreed."
If the other party rejects his conditions, it is not an invitation to dinner, but a direct rejection on the phone.
To avoid any awkward meeting between the two parties.
Lu Hui nodded in agreement, her tone respectful and excited.
“The tallest building in the world is yours soon.”
"I don't care about the tallest building in the world, and even now, the Shanghai World Financial Center is not the tallest building in the world." Xu Liang said.
Super high-rise office buildings have high construction costs and high maintenance costs.
He wasn't too keen.
If it weren’t for the location advantage of the Shanghai World Financial Center, he would not have purchased it.
"Call Sen Min back and say I agreed." Xu Liang continued.
"Yes."
Lu Hui turned around and walked out.
Xu Liang stood up, walked slowly to the window, looked at the brightly lit Tokyo below, and let out a long sigh.
Having the shares from Mori Building Co., Ltd. and acquiring the Shanghai World Financial Center is more than half successful.
Although the remaining 48% is held by dozens of companies, the latter are all banks and investment institutions. As long as the price is right, acquisition is not difficult.
Everything went as Xu Liang expected. After the second meeting, Minoru Mori agreed to Taihua Real Estate's acquisition of the Shanghai World Financial Center.
But it’s not the end here. There are still 48% of the equity in the Magic City Global Financial Center in the hands of investment institutions and banks, which need to be acquired one by one.
But with the absolute controlling stake in the entire project, the subsequent acquisition will be easier.
Just leave it to Lu Jue. However, the design of the Shanghai World Financial Center must be changed. Whether it is the saber building or the corkscrew, he does not want it.
A flat surface, just straighten it and cover it.
——
Looked at the time, turned around and picked up the coat hanging next to it.
Turn around and walk out of the room.
“Mr. Xu.”
Lu Hui quickly stood up.
"Get off work on time, no need to follow me."
"Okay."
Xu Liang went downstairs and drove to Futian's house.
Knock on the door, go in, and give the gift.
"Aunt, where is Xinmei?"
"She's still changing clothes upstairs. I'll call her down right away." Masakari Fukuda went upstairs with a smile.
“Sit down.”
Futian Yanji asked Xu Liang to sit down.
"There will be many people coming to the banquet tonight. Let Hideo introduce them to you. It will be helpful to both of your careers."
Xu Liang smiled and nodded.
After Hideo Fukuda established the ‘Fukuda Wealth Management Company’, he planned to hold an investment reception and ask him to help stand up.
He agreed after a brief consideration.
Futian Wealth Management Company has 30% of its own shares, and it also cooperates with Hanhua Capital to raise funds for the latter. I have to help out both emotionally and rationally.
"Uncle isn't going?"
"I'll forget it. I'm an old guy. You young people can have your own fun." After a pause, "Do you really want to take Xinmei with you?"
"Does uncle think it's inappropriate?"
"Young people have many things to play with, and it is a bit inconvenient to carry your inner beauty with you."
Looking at Futian Imandera's careful wording, Xu Liang understood instantly.
There is a high probability that it is the same style as the young model in the club.
Xu Liang smiled and shook his head, "I'm not interested in anything else. I'll take Xinmei to eat something and leave."
Futian Yanji was a little surprised.
According to his understanding, the man in front of him is not a single-minded person.
Xu Liang didn’t explain much.
He has experienced enough women that he has passed the stage of being hungry and has a picky taste.
Club tender mold is not in his recipe.
Dengdeng…….
The sound of rapid footsteps interrupted their thoughts.
Soon, Fukuda Shinmei, wearing a plain white long-sleeved dress, long hair shawl, and a gentle temperament, ran down from upstairs.
Seeing Xu Liang, her pretty face was filled with joy.
"Xu Jun."
Run over quickly.
However, since her father was by her side, she didn't do anything extraordinary. She just leaned against Xu Liang's side obediently and gently like a newlywed wife.
Xu Liang took her hand.
"Uncle and aunt, it's getting late, so we'll leave first."
After Fukuda Iwadera and Fukuda Masari nodded, they were sent out.
Watching the two people walking away.
Makari Fukuda couldn't help but said: "Iwadera, they are a perfect match."
"Yes."
Fukuda Iwadera nodded, his eyes never leaving. Xu Liang's back.
Through previous contacts, his impression of Xu Liang also changed little by little.
In addition to his excellent business and financial talents, the other party does not seem to be the unrestrained lothario he imagined.
Sentimental but not sentimental.
Luxury but not pleasure.
"If he can continue to be successful, Xinmei will be able to accept him."
——
Hilton Hotel Restaurant.
Xu Liang took Futian Xinmei to the seat reserved in advance and sat down.
Order the food.
“Xu Sang, aren’t we going to attend my brother’s investment reception?”
"Of course. But we still have time, let's eat some food first, otherwise if we just drink, I'm afraid I'll starve to death before the party is over." Xu Liang said with a smile.
Fukuda Xinmei also knew that he had eaten a lot. She nodded with a smile and put the meat and vegetables on the table into his bowl.
"You eat more. I will peel the shrimp for you later."
"Thank you."
"Xu Jun, you are welcome. Xinmei will do anything for you. They all feel very happy.”
Looking at the woman in front of him who looked at him, Xu Liang couldn't help but feel a little softer.
The women around me, Jiang Xiaoyang, Qiao Yuhui and Sun Mingzhen are career partners, An Kaiyue and Futian Xinmei are spiritual havens. Only in their place can I feel completely relaxed.
No need to wear a mask, no need to hide your emotions.
And Mo Maniang is a true confidante, with the same hobbies and similar personalities, and they can understand each other's thoughts with just one look.
Each has its own characteristics and advantages.
Indispensable by his side.
