As the major shareholder of Jardine Matheson Land, Land's interests are closely related to Jardine Matheson Land.
Therefore, regarding which properties you want to exchange, you need not only the consent of Land, but also the consent of Jardine.
As long as Nui Bijian agrees, there will be nothing difficult for Yihe.
After Tui Bijian and Bao Fuda went outside, they discussed in a low voice.
"Mr. Nie Bijian, what do you think is the best way to trade with them?" Bao Fuda chose to ask Nie Bijian for his opinion first.
As the boss of Land, Nie Bijian naturally knows all about Land's industries.
So, Twisted Bijian thought for a while and said: "Judging from Mr. Su's words, he seems to prefer properties on the south bank of Victoria Harbor. Therefore, I have two suggestions. One is based on the properties in Wan Chai. The Lockhart Hotel Building was exchanged with them; the second was to exchange it with them at the Land Freight Terminal in Sheung Wan. "
Bao Fuda showed admiration. It was indeed Jardine Taipan who came up with a suitable plan so quickly.
Based on the current situation of real estate, he found that these two properties are indeed more suitable on Xiangjiang Island.
The location of the Locke Hotel Building in Wan Chai is not much worse than that of Central. The total area of the building is slightly larger than that of Su Group. The entire building is owned by Hong Kong Land. The reason why Nie Bijian suggested to replace it with this place is It's because the business of Rock Hotel has not been very good in the past two years. It can be said that it has been losing money every year. Although the losses are not much, it can be regarded as a non-performing asset of the Land Group.
The Sheung Wan Land Freight Terminal is even simpler. The development here has always been relatively slow, because there are many commercial goods and warehouses in the area. It is a distribution center for seafood. With the development of the container terminal in Kwai Chung, Sheung Wan, The old-style wharves and warehouses in places like the West District gradually lost their significance. As a result, these freight wharves and warehouses began to be gradually eliminated, and some real estate developers began to build commercial buildings here.
However, the location in Sheung Wan has not yet received planning from the Hong Kong Government Government, so the development here is relatively chaotic, and everyone is developing independently.
Therefore, in Twisted Bijian’s opinion, the position of the upper ring is not as good as Jordan.
Actually, Landmark Cargo Terminal is not far from the westernmost part of Central. The two can be said to be neighbors.
For example, Tianhe's training base in Sheung Wan was originally a large warehouse area, but now it has been transformed into a training base.
If Su Cheng looked at the map of Xiangjiang in later generations, he would definitely find that this Land Freight Terminal was actually less than 900 meters away from the famous Xiangjiang International Financial Center.
In the future, there will also be many high-rise buildings here, becoming an important part of Hong Kong's top skyline.
Of course, this will have to wait at least ten years.
The two of them quickly discussed the outcome and settled on Tui Bijian's suggestion. As for whether Su Cheng will refuse again, we can only wait and see when the time comes.
However, in their opinion, if Su City agrees, they will most likely choose Locke Hotel Building. After all, it has better prospects there.
The two of them returned to the box again.
"Mr. Su, after discussing it with Mr. Nie Bijian, I decided to give you two more places to choose from, Mr. Su. One is the Locke Hotel Building in Wan Chai, which is 15 stories high. Mr. Su should also know that it is Where, when going from Central to the Hung Hom Cross Harbor Tunnel, you usually pass by it. The valuation of the Locke Hotel Building is slightly higher than that of the Su Group Headquarters Building. If Mr. Su is willing to exchange, we can directly exchange it with the Su Group. The Su Group will no longer You need to pay the price difference;
Another option is the Landmark Freight Terminal in Sheung Wan. Although the current land price there is not comparable to that in Central, our Landmark Freight Terminal covers an area of 120,000 square feet. It is almost 8 times the land area of the Su Group Headquarters Building. Counting the value of the eight-story building above the ground, the valuations on both sides are similar.
As long as Mr. Su agrees, you can choose between these two places. , we will all agree! In addition, we can also support Mr. Su's purchase of the land in Central for HK$2 billion. We can say that our sincerity is very high." After sitting down, Bao Fuda began to talk about Land. conditions.
After listening to Bao Fuda's words, Su Cheng was not in a hurry to make a decision. Instead, he said with a smile: "You two, let me make a call first." The manager called and asked him to bring over a map of Xiangjiang City.
Three minutes later, the general manager of Joy Lai Restaurant hurriedly walked in with a map of Xiangjiang City.
Su Cheng spread the map on the round table and quickly found the Locke Hotel Building and the Sheung Wan Land Freight Terminal that Bao Fuda mentioned.
Under normal circumstances, because the Su Group wants to work, it is definitely more suitable to choose the Locke Hotel Building. With just a few simple changes, the Locke Hotel Building can be turned into an office building, and compared with the Su Group's office area , the area of the Locke Hotel Building can be much larger. Even if the Su Group continues to grow and develop, the office area of the Locke Hotel Building will be enough.
However, Su City is also planning to take over the Federal Building and Wheelock International Building owned by Wheelock Group. When the time comes, Su City will be able to use any building for Su Group's offices, and there will be no shortage of office space there.
Especially the Federal Building, which is not only located in Central, but is also the tallest building in front of Hong Kong. Its construction area is many times larger than that of the Su Group Headquarters Building. With the current scale of Su Group, it only needs Let them use part of the space, and the rest can still be rented out.
So, if there are really plans to sell the Su Group headquarters building, for Su City, the subsequent arrangements for the Su Group will be too simple.
After reading the location maps of the two places, Su Cheng asked Xiao Ai to call up the future map of Xiangjiang City in his mind.
Comparing the two maps, you only need to look at the famous buildings to see where Xiangjiang will develop in the future.
The Su Group headquarters building covers an area of less than 2,000 square meters. Su City has thought about demolishing it and building a new building in the future.
However, with the area of the Su Group, it is basically impossible to build a high-rise building. Building a building more than 100 meters high will reach the sky.
Buying other land nearby?
There is no need to consider the Duke Building to the west. The buildings in other directions nearby are also densely packed with high-rise buildings and there is no open space at all.
If you want to build a building on the original site of the Su Group headquarters and expand the area, the simplest way is to buy other buildings next to it, then demolish them and merge the plots.
But the cost is too high and not worth it.
With this money, I can buy a land in a better location.
However, this Sheung Wan Land freight terminal will actually become a passenger terminal in the future, and two skyscrapers will be built next to the terminal - Shun Tak Center and China Merchants Building.
Both these two buildings can be regarded as landmark buildings in Xiangjiang. People from Xiangjiang basically start here when traveling to and from Haojiang.
This location is beautiful!
Trading an eight-storey building of more than 1,000 square meters for a piece of land in the core area of Sheung Wan with an area of more than 11,000 square meters is simply not a good deal! (End of this chapter)
