Chapter 456 I’m not afraid of my son’s debauchery, I’m just afraid that he wants to prove himself
After the morning exercise, Xu Liang leaned on the bedside and quietly felt the afterglow.
Qiao Yuhui, who was leaning in his arms, suddenly said, "I'm going back tomorrow."
"Didn't you say I would stay for a while? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?" Xu Liang asked.
“I want to go back and watch the design department to come up with the design drafts of new products as soon as possible to seize the Southeast Asian and South Asian markets.” Qiao Yuhui said.
"Isn't the country closed now? You can't get the people in the design department to work when you go back, so why bother?"
"As the largest beverage company in the country, Jianlibao still has some influence. As long as you do the inspections in advance , it will be no problem if we work in a fully enclosed manner. They will be fine with giving more money and subsidizing the employees."
Looking at Qiao Yuhui's serious look, Xu Liangzhong sighed.
Among the women around them, Qiao Yuhui and Sun Mingzhen are absolutely career-oriented women. Work is the most important thing to them and it is also the basis for them to realize the value of life.
In contrast, marriage, love, and even sex are ranked behind.
Although Jiang Xiaoyang also hopes to achieve career success, he can still balance life and career.
An Kaiyue, Futian Xinmei, and Sun Yanzhen have little ambition. They all focus on family and love.
"Well, since you have decided, I will take you back tomorrow."
Qiao Yuhui opened her mouth, she originally planned to leave today.
But Xu Liang said so, and she didn’t insist anymore.
Jingle bell bell….
Xu Liang’s cell phone rang.
Looked at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.
"Fourth uncle, you got up so early?"
"As we get older, we can't sleep for long." Li Zhaoji smiled and said, "By the way, I heard that you got it from Li Jiacheng Acquired 20% interest in Central Center? ”
"Yeah."
"Then what you asked me to do...?"
"Of course it counts. I have many companies under my umbrella, and they need an international headquarters."
"That's good. I've found an office property for you in the past few days, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Hearing what he said was full of confidence, Xu Liang also became interested.
"Oh, where is it?"
"I am an old guy who doesn't know how to play with computers or send emails. I can only ask my secretary to run errands. I believe he will be here soon."
< br>"Thank you so much, Uncle Fourth."
"Haha, why are you so polite? Let's have tea together when we have time."
"Okay."
After a brief chat, Xu Liang hung up the phone.
"Li Zhaoji?"
Qiao Yuhui asked.
"Well. I asked him to help me buy an office building in Central before. This will give me some clues."
"Don't you already own 20% of the equity in Central Center? How can you return it? Buy? ”
"The property market in Xiangjiang is now at a low ebb. It's the right time to buy. There won't be such a good opportunity in a few years." Xu Liang said.
After asking, Qiao Yuhui lost interest.
She has no strength now and just wants to rest.
“You should take a rest and I’ll go check out the information sent by Li Zhaoji.”
“Yes.”
Xu Liang took a shower first, changed his clothes and came out. After eating some breakfast, Lu Hui sent the information.
Took it and took a look.
“Fulama Hotel?”
After looking carefully, I realized what was going on.
When talking about Furama Hotel, we have to mention the once-famous top wealthy people in Xiangjiang - the Lin family.
Lin Boxin, the first generation of the family, is undoubtedly the boss.
He started from scratch, and gradually became a clothing tycoon in Hong Kong from the earliest hawker. At his peak, he was worth more than 60 billion, making him a wealthy man.
However, Lin Boxin's wealth came and went quickly.
There is an old saying that wealth cannot last more than three generations, but for Lin Boxin's descendants, tens of billions of wealth were almost lost in less than two generations.
All this is thanks to his two sons, Lin Jianyue and Lin Jianming.
The former is a playboy, and if there are many women around him, he must be numbered.
Crocodile Shirt, once a famous clothing company in Asia, was destroyed in his hands.
The second oldest, Lin Jianyue, is even better.
The property market was booming on the eve of Hong Kong's return. Lin Jianyue, who had no real estate experience, thought he had grasped the business opportunity. He purchased the Furama Hotel in Central from the Fu Laorong family at a high price of HK$6.9 billion and rebuilt it.
Unexpectedly, the Asian financial crisis in 1998 led to a sharp drop in property prices. Lai Sun Group was in a financial crisis because it borrowed money from banks to acquire the Furama Hotel.
Lai Sun Group also became the listed company with the highest loss rate in Hong Kong that year, and its stock price also fell continuously.
Although Lin Jianyue does not have the luxury of living and drinking like his elder brother Lin Jianming, his investment has brought much more harm than that. Lin Boxin's family business, which he has worked hard for for many years, was almost destroyed in one day.
So, you are not afraid of your children living in a wild life, but you are afraid that they want to prove themselves!
There is Lin Jianyue in the front and Xiaowang Pusi in the back.
In 2000, Lai Sun sold 65% of its shares to Singapore-listed company Paton Land, and announced its decision to terminate the operation of Furama Hotel on November 30, 2001. The hotel building will also be demolished and rebuilt. It is a Grade A commercial building.
Without Xu Liang's participation, this building would have been purchased by American International Group in 2007 and renamed AIA International Financial Center. The entire building has a total area of 54,600 square meters and is worth approximately HK$2.5 to 3 billion, which is more than half of its peak value.
The Lin family has suffered a huge loss.
After Xu Liang read it, he took out his cell phone and called Li Zhaoji.
The latter was obviously waiting for his call, and the call was answered quickly.
"Uncle Fourth, I have read the information you sent. It is a very good landmark, I plan to buy it."
"I knew you would want it. The Miramar Hotel is No. 1 Connaught Road, in Central Although it is not as good as the International Financial Center and Landmark, it is still a top-notch property."
"Haha, what the fourth uncle said is true, but I still need your help to contact the Lin family."
"This is no problem. But after reading the information, you must also know that the Lin family suffered a big loss on this property, and the price will definitely be higher."
"I can accept a higher price, as long as it is not Too much.”
"Don't worry, although the second generation of the Lin family is useless, Lin Boxin is still sensible. I will go there personally and won't let you spend more money."
"Then I will thank my fourth uncle first."
Xu Liang smiled.
“You’re welcome. Hanhua has helped me make so much money, and in comparison, such a small favor is nothing. ...By the way, what are you going to do in Singapore?”
"Temasek behind Baiteng Land is an institutional investor of Hanhua Capital, and I have some friendship with him." Xu Liang said with a smile.
"That's good. ...If you encounter difficulties, call me. I still have some face in Singapore."
"If necessary, I will definitely bother my fourth uncle."
"Haha , I won’t bother you anymore. I’ll make an appointment with Lin Boxin first.”
“Goodbye, fourth uncle.”
After hanging up the phone, Xu Liang looked at the information in his hand.
After hesitating for a while, he called Sun Haizhen of Hongmeng Zhongnan Company.
After explaining the matter, Xu Liang said.
“In Singapore, Hanhua should also set up a branch, otherwise it will be too inconvenient.”
Singapore is the main listing place for Southeast Asia and even some South Asian companies. With the Southeast Asian economy With continuous development and the continuous spillover of enterprises grown within Huaxia, the business in Southeast Asia will become more and more important within Hanhua.
It would be more convenient to have a branch office.
You don’t need too many people at the beginning. Once you become familiar with the Southeast Asian market, it won’t be too late to set up a company focusing on Southeast Asia.
The same principle applies to Japan, Seoul and other places.
——
The Lin family mansion in Repulse Bay.
An old man with white hair and a white short shirt sat on a recliner, quietly looking at the bustling Hong Kong skyline in the distance. Occasionally there was a glint of light in his cloudy eyes, but most of the time he was numb.
On the face covered with age spots, one can vaguely see the charm of his youth.
But after all, time is not forgiving.
With the sound of footsteps approaching from far away, the housekeeper walked over with a phone in his hand.
"Master, Li Sheng from Henderson is calling you."
"Li Laosi? Why is he looking for me?"
Lin Boxin was stunned for a moment.
“The other party didn’t say anything.”
Lin Boxin spread out her left hand, and the housekeeper quickly put the phone on it.
“Hello.”
"Lin Sheng? It's me, Li Zhaoji."
Both of them are from the same era. Although they rarely cooperate, they are not strangers.
"Hello, Li Sheng. Why did you remember to call me?"
Li Zhaoji did not hesitate and said directly: "I heard that you have not been in good health recently. I originally planned to visit you. , I caught a cold and couldn't make the trip for a while, so I had to call."
"Thank you for your concern, it's just an old problem, nothing serious."
Although I can't figure out what medicine the other party is selling in the gourd, I can't let go of the scene.
"That's good. At our age, we must take good care of our health. Such a wonderful world, we can't bear to give up if we can take one more look at it."
"That's right."< br>
After some polite remarks, Li Zhaoji revealed his purpose.
"Lin Sheng, I have a business here and I want to discuss it with you."
"Business?"
Lin Boxin thought for a while, but she didn't expect that the other party would have any business cooperation with her?
“I want to buy 35% of the Lin family’s equity in the Miramar Hotel.”
“Miramar Hotel?!”
A ray of gloom flashed in Lin Boxin’s eyes .
This was the Lin family's biggest shame, and it almost caused the Lixin Group, which he had worked so hard to establish all his life, to close down.
"Lin Sheng, please rest assured. I never meant to ridicule the Lin family, but I sincerely want to acquire the rights and interests of Miramar Hotel."
Lin Jianyue's 6.9 billion acquisition of Miramar Hotel caused a sensation in Hong Kong , has also become a representative of the prodigal son, and is often used to educate his own children. So he knew very well Lin Boxin's mentality at the moment.
Take a deep breath and suppress the anger in your heart.
The Lin family today is no longer the same as it was twenty years ago.
