Chapter 457 Miramar Hotel
Not only did the two treacherous sons fail to live up to their expectations, the third-bedroom Lin Mingzhu, who was once regarded as the apple of his eye, not only cost him a loan of 1 billion, but also took him to court.
Became the famous ‘rebellious girl from a wealthy family’ in Xiangjiang.
It also made him a laughing stock, and he almost died of anger.
However, although the three sons and four daughters are all useless, they are still their own children.
Also think about them.
Especially now, the declining Lin family cannot afford to offend the prosperous Li family.
"Li Sheng, as long as the price is right, the rights and interests of Miramar Hotel can be sold to you."
Everyone in Xiangjiang knows that Li Zhaoji has two magic weapons in real estate.
The first is to purchase the “Type B Land Exchange Rights Letter”.
In the last century, the Hong Kong government expropriated agricultural land in the New Territories for development purposes. It first used land exchange rights to acquire land in batches from farmers, and then exchanged it with them when the government had centrally allocated land for building housing.
This leaves many farmers who want to cash out immediately before the government’s land exchange order, holding the land exchange rights and interests documents and having nothing to do.
Li Zhaoji purchased the land exchange rights deed held by them in cash, which was both popular and cheap.
As soon as the government announces the development plan, the large amount of rights deeds he purchased will become developable land.
Second, rebuild the old building.
Buy old buildings in prime locations and build new ones on old land.
This method kills multiple birds with one stone. Developers benefit, the city's appearance is renovated, old owners cash out, and the government increases taxes, but it is very laborious.
Because the acquisition of a small property (such as a household) alone cannot support the development plan of a real estate project, Henderson also developed a unique skill - building mergers.
Obtain land by purchasing properties from multiple owners on a certain target site and combining them into whole pieces.
In order to receive the old buildings, he set up a dragnet. In addition to targeting Hong Kong, he also went to the places where expatriates who had left properties in Hong Kong moved to look for properties to buy.
Merging properties is extremely difficult and complicated. If an owner does not sell, he or she will lose everything. However, Henderson has a soft spot for this and has merged numerous properties over the past few decades.
Li Zhaoji has another famous saying about this: "Every inch of land must be fought for", which has also spread everywhere.
The Miramar Hotel is obviously an old building that is about to be renovated.
Echoes Henderson's taste.
While heaving a sigh of relief, Li Zhaoji said: "I promise not to let the Lin family suffer, how about 5,500 Hong Kong dollars per square foot?"
Based on the current situation of the property market in Xiangjiang, this price is already very generous.
After all, the Miramar Hotel is too old. If you buy it without renovating it, you will never be able to rent it out.
But decoration is also a big expense.
"Li Sheng, let me think about it and reply to you in three days."
"Okay, I'll wait for the good news from Lin Sheng."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Boxin pondered for a moment.
Recruit the butler.
"Old Sun, please contact the Hong Kong government in my name to see if there are any municipal projects or renovations at the Miramar Hotel recently."
After hearing this, the housekeeper agreed and left.
Although the price given by Li Zhaoji was very kind, he did not want to sell the land in a daze.
If it turns out that he is buying a casket for a pearl, he, Lin Boxin, will be ridiculed again.
After asking around and finding nothing, Lin Boxin signed a contract with Henderson Land Development.
Temasek will not embarrass Xu Liang over the 65% interest in a building in Xiangjiang.
“Mr. Xu, the contract is signed.
Li Zhaoji’s price is HK$5,500 per square foot, which is also the price he paid for it from the Lin family.
Temasek spent HK$5,000, totaling HK$2.543 billion. "Lu Jue said on the phone.
"Where is the Central Center? ”
“The transaction is completed, and HK$2.5 billion has been transferred to Cheung Kong. ”
“Complete the renovation of Miramar Hotel within three years. "Xu Liang explained.
"Understood. ”
"Has the transaction with Delong started?"
"It has started. We have taken over four plots of land in second-tier cities. In addition, Delong Group hopes that we will pay the remaining money first. Give it to them."
"Why?"
"It is estimated that Delong's finances are already unsustainable... The last four pieces of land they bought have already reached the date of paying the land payment. They currently have no liquidity, so they left the problem directly to us, which is why we were able to complete the transaction so quickly." Lu Juedao.
Xu Liang thought about it and said, "Give them half first."
"Yes."
After a few more explanations, Xu Liang hung up the phone.
He waved to Lu Hui next to him.
"Mr. Xu."
"Call Sun Zhenping and ask them to move the company to the Central Center."
"Yes."
In fact, Xu Liang would like to move the Hong Kong headquarters of Hanhua Capital to the Miramar Hotel, where it will be larger and more private.
But the Miramar Hotel is still in the reconstruction stage.
If you want to move there, you have to wait a few years.
After the explanation, Xu Liang took out a piece of paper and calculated the expenses.
The original huge sum of US$16 billion after oil speculation has been spent on US$5.2 billion after the purchase of Standard Chartered shares, the Delong land, the acquisition of a 20% interest in the Central Center and the Miramar Hotel.
Taihua Real Estate has 27 commercial projects, including the renovation of Miramar Hotel, the number is 28.
The construction of these twenty-eight projects will require at least US$3 billion.
The only good thing is that the money does not need to be taken out in one go, but divided into three years.
But this year he will spend almost 1 billion US dollars.
Looking at the balance of 10.8 billion US dollars, Xu Liang couldn't help but shook his head.
“This money seems to be a lot, but it is really not worth spending.”
However, the 10% of Yahoo Japan shares he holds are being sold off, and by then there will be at least 4 billion left. dollars and even more money coming in.
You don’t have to worry about having no money to invest.
——
Jingle bell bell….
The phone rang. I took it over and looked at it, then pressed the answer button.
“BOSS, it’s me.”
Rick Gordon’s voice came over.
"Did the Bucks agree?" Xu Liang asked directly.
“They refused.”
Xu Liang was a little disappointed.
The plan to put James, Wade and Yao Ming in the same frame was ruined.
“BOSS, do you want us to add a few more chips?”
"No need. Any more will make us stupid." Xu Liang decisively refused.
One James is not worth that much.
Rick Gordon didn't speak anymore. He didn't really agree with Xu Liang's plan.
"Understood. ...By the way, BOSS. Coach Tom wants to trade Troy Murphy for Derek Fisher of the Lakers."
"Why? The point guard position Isn't there Billups and Bob Sula?" Xu Liang asked.
"Billups is very good, but although Bob Sula has certain organizational skills, he is too aggressive and often rushes into the basket.
Coupled with his fragile physical fitness , causing him to be frequently injured.
He only played 55 of the 82 regular season games last season.
So Tom wanted to exchange for someone who has certain defensive and offensive abilities and can play stably. Point guard."
"He's interested in Fisher?"
"Yes."
"Derek Fisher, the No. 24 pick in the first round of 1996, has averaged 10 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists per season since joining the Lakers. .
He is 185cm tall and weighs 93kg. He has good three-point shooting, balanced defensive and offensive abilities, and is an excellent role player with a rare heart. ”
Xu Liang nodded. He often watched football in those years, and of course he was no stranger to Derek Fisher, nicknamed 'Old Fish' of the Lakers.
Not everyone can defeat Kobe, gain the trust of Zen Master, and become the captain of the Lakers.
"If Tom likes it, let him. Both Troy Murphy and Bob Sura can be traded."
"Okay."
Rick Gordon breathed a sigh of relief.
He is really afraid that the big boss will come up with another big deal of three for one.
"BOSS, do you have any favorite targets in this year's draft?"
"The No. 4 pick selects Marquette University's Dwyane Wade. As for the second round, you decide for yourself."
Xu Liang didn't find any familiar players among the second-round draft picks predicted by the media.
Just don’t care.
After chatting for a while, Xu Liang hung up the phone.
Next he stayed in Xiangjiang for about a week.
It’s June.
Due to the increasingly severe SARS situation in China, Hongmeng’s originally planned Series B financing had to be postponed to September.
On June 5, Xu Liang left Xiangjiang and returned to Singapore. After staying with An Kaiyue for half a month, he came to Tokyo.
——
On the floor of the room at a constant temperature of 26 degrees, men's and women's clothes were still lying casually on the floor, stretching from the living room to the bedroom.
On the spacious big bed, Xu Liang lay on the back of the big bed.
Although the woman in his arms was extremely tired, she still subconsciously wrapped herself tightly around the man's body.
“Are you afraid that I will run away? Why are you hugging me so tightly?” Xu Liang said with a smile.
"Some. But more of it is love and admiration for Xu Jun."
Futian said sincerely.
During this period, she has heard too many praises about her lover from the media, as well as from her father and brother.
Young genius.
Financial genius.
Business elites emerge every fifty years.
The youngest billionaire.
Wait.
In today's global business and financial circles, the name Xu Liang is almost unknown to everyone.
Such a top being is her lover. While Futian is beautiful and proud, the love in her heart becomes even stronger.
And Xu Liang has already put a filter on her heart.
No matter what he does is right, no matter what he does to himself, Futian Xinmei is willing to do it.
Xu Liang was keenly aware of another change in the attitude of the women around him towards him.
The kind of attachment and love that goes deep into his bones makes him enjoy it very much.
After all, who among men doesn’t want to have a woman who loves him with all her heart and eyes?
But being too obsessed is not a good thing, as it is easy to go to extremes.
You still need to have some hobbies to distract yourself from excess energy.
"Xinmei, your painting of "Death" is getting better and better. President Fukunaga often praises you in front of me." Xu Liang said with a smile.
"This is all Xu Jun's credit. Without your guidance, I would not be able to draw such an excellent comic. Xu Jun, you are so outstanding."
Admiring eyes , very exciting.
“By the way, do your parents know that I came to Japan?”
"I know. I told them."
"Do they have any explanation?" Xu Liang asked.
"They said they would try to invite you to their home as a guest."
"Then go tomorrow."
"I listen to Xu Jun."
