"No matter how hard Land Land is short of money, we probably won't sell the Connaught Building." Zhang Qizheng said with a wry smile.
Land and Jardine are one and the same. As the tallest building in Hong Kong, owning the Connaught Building is an honor. Even if Land sells it, it will only be sold to Jardine.
Because of this, about ten years later, the headquarters of the Jardine Group moved into the Connaught Building, and the Connaught Building was renamed the Jardine House.
"I'm just giving an example. I won't force you to sell it now. With so many high-rise buildings in the city center of Xiangjiang, there should be many people who want to sell their properties." Su Cheng said nonchalantly.
Although the Connaught Building is now the tallest building in Hong Kong, after next year, this title of "tallest building" will be replaced by the Hopewell Center in nearby Wan Chai.
Speaking of this, Su Cheng suddenly remembered that not long after Yang Chaoye joined the company, Su Cheng had talked with him about building the world's tallest building in Xiangjiang.
At that time, due to the expansion of Su Group, the Su Group Building was no longer enough.
However, due to the shortage of funds at that time, the matter dropped.
Now, since you plan to buy property, it is best to buy a skyscraper over 100 meters high. In this way, no matter how fast the Su Group expands, it will be enough.
What's more, Tseung Kwan O is already under intense construction. It will take at most two or three years for the initial construction there to be completed. By then, whether it is Su Group or Hutchison Whampoa Group, etc., the senior management They will all move there to work.
As for the city center, of course some less important departments should be kept here.
Because of this, the construction of the world's tallest building was not mentioned in Sioux City later.
However, if you can buy a good piece of land, Su City would not mind building the tallest building in the world.
The value of the building will only get higher and higher. It may cost two to three billion or even more to build now, but in twenty or thirty years, the value of this building may be hundreds. 100 million, if you add in the rental income over the past 20 to 30 years, the value will be even higher.
Of course, these are just fantasies at the moment. If you want to build a super high-rise building, you must first have a suitable land. You can't just choose a place to build it. That is not necessary. Since you want to build a super high-rise building, you must first have a suitable land. For skyscrapers, you have to choose the best location to build them, so that the potential for future appreciation will be huge.
"Okay boss, I understand. I will collect the information as soon as possible. It is not difficult to collect the information. Give me a few days at most, and I will contact you boss then." Zhang Qizheng said.
Su Cheng nodded. With money in hand, this matter is not urgent and can be purchased at any time.
If you want to buy one, of course it should be one that is on sale quickly, and it is best to get a good deal.
No matter how much money you have, you still have to save the province. It would be a bastard not to take advantage of it.
"By the way, boss, since we are going to set up a new property company, what should we name the company? It will be easy to handle when I send someone to register it tomorrow." Zhang Qizheng continued to ask.
"The name, let's call it Tianqi Property Company." Su Cheng said casually. There were so many companies, he didn't really care about the name. What's more, registering this company was just for the convenience of rent collection. The name is so ugly. The company has no impact.
"Okay, I understand!" Zhang Qizheng nodded and said. After arranging the matter to Zhang Qizheng, Su Cheng stayed in the company for an afternoon, learned about some of the company's current situation, and chatted with some of the more outstanding employees before leaving Tianyuan Building.
At noon the next day, Su Cheng received a call from Zhang Qizheng, saying that the registration of Tianqi Property Company had been completed.
After Su Cheng hung up the phone, he called Weili of Hutchison Whampoa Group and briefly told Wei Li about Tianqi Property Company, and then asked him to find Hutchison Property Company. The general manager of the company asked him to temporarily serve as the general manager of Tianqi Property Company. After a successor is found, there will be no need to trouble him. The new company here will give him the salary he deserves and will not treat him badly.
"Boss, this is a small matter. I will tell Mr. Li of Hutchison Property Company later." After hearing this, Wei Li said with a smile.
Speaking of which, he still holds the position of president of Hong Kong Electric Group, but in the past two months he has paid little attention to matters there, and he can basically leave it to Ma Shiming.
"Okay, sorry to trouble you." Su Cheng nodded and said.
“By the way, boss, I have something to tell you. Hong Kong Electric Group can now safely leave it to Mr. Ma. After these few months of inspection, I think he has I am qualified to serve as the president of Hong Kong Electric Group. There is basically no need for me there now. I am also very busy at Hutchison Whampoa and my energy is limited. I feel embarrassed to receive this salary anymore." Wei Li said on the phone. said.
"Okay, I have really troubled you these past few months. I have to keep an eye on the two big groups, and it has really worked hard for you. Let's do this. When this month is over, I will directly act as my chairman. It is announced that Mr. Wei Li will step down as president of Hong Kong Electric Group and Mr. Ma Shiming will take over," Su Cheng said with a smile.
Although he rarely goes to HK Electric Group, he is still more concerned about the situation of HK Electric Group. After all, Ma Shiming has little experience, and he is afraid that Ma Shiming will not be able to assume the position of top leader of HK Electric Group.
However, it is obvious that he thinks more.
Not only did Ma Shiming do a good job, but even Wei Li was amazed.
Under Ma Shiming's management, everything in the Hong Kong Electric Group is developing in an orderly manner, without any signs of chaos.
The biggest result is that Ma Shiming went to Haojiang last week and negotiated a cooperation with the Governor of Haojiang. The Hong Kong Electric Group will build a power station on Coloane Island in Haojiang to supply current electricity. Haojiang is obviously lacking.
This may be the Haojiang Governor's Mansion's show of goodwill to Su City, hoping that Su City will invest heavily in Haojiang, but it also shows that Ma Shiming's ability is not bad.
"Okay, then I will continue to serve for the time being. In fact, I have already taught him all the experience I need to teach him. It is March 20th now. In ten days, I will step down!" Weili said .
Weili then briefly talked about the current situation of Hutchison Whampoa Group.
Compared with the Hutchison Whampoa when it was the majority shareholder of Huifeng Bank, the gap between Hutchison Whampoa today and Hutchison Whampoa is getting wider and wider. It is not a step back, but a continuous improvement.
If the previous market value of Hutchison Whampoa Group was HK$4 to 5 billion, if the current Hutchison Whampoa Group were to be listed, he felt that it could at least exceed the market value of HK$10 billion, even if it was HK$20 billion, Wei Li felt Neither is enough to represent the true value of Hutchison Whampoa.
After all, Hutchison Whampoa is so profitable now!
Unlike Hutchison Whampoa in the past, losses were a common occurrence. Even after Weili took over, he only got rid of the loss situation. (End of this chapter)
