Su Cheng's stay in Harbor City did not last long. He only spent noon time and left in a hurry.
For him, the success or failure of Harbor City seems to be an issue that does not require too much concern and seems quite redundant.
Sure enough, in the early morning of the next day, the person in charge of Harbor City took the initiative to contact Sioux City and reported in detail various operational data on the first day of opening.
These data not only contain some unexpected surprises, but also faintly reveal the calmness of having everything under control, which makes people feel surprised and reasonable at the same time.
On the first day of opening, Harbor City made a shocking debut with an astonishing 398,600 visitors and a turnover of HK$386 million.
This result significantly surpasses Hutchison Plaza's best performance in its heyday, demonstrating Harbor City's unparalleled advantages in terms of both footfall and turnover.
Hutchison Plaza is limited by its suburban location and has always been unable to enter the core of the high-end commercial field. Therefore, its positioning has long been focused on the mid- to low-end market.
Harbor City is completely different. Its unique geographical location gives it strong competitiveness, making it easy to win the favor of the market whether it focuses on low-end or high-end products.
It is based on this understanding that last year Sioux City and Charter King had an in-depth discussion on the future development path of Harbor City.
After in-depth analysis and discussion, both parties finally reached a consensus: Harbor City should focus on mid-to-high-end sales, supplemented by low-end products to meet the diversified needs of different consumers, thereby further consolidating and expanding its leading position in the market.
Therefore, the prices of many of the products sold in Harbor City, which is positioned as a high-end one, are naturally high, which directly contributed to the significant growth in turnover.
According to the detailed report of the person in charge of Harbor City, if it were not for the surge in traffic and the failure of some stores to keep up with their services in time, resulting in the failure of some potential transactions to be successfully concluded, otherwise the final sales would have been entirely possible. Increased by more than 50%.
Admittedly, this does make people feel a little regretful, but considering that this is the first day of the opening of Harbor City, many employees have not yet fully adapted to such a huge passenger flow, and it is inevitable that there will be deficiencies in the service, resulting in The loss of some trading opportunities.
However, even under such circumstances, the results achieved yesterday still make everyone feel sincerely satisfied and proud.
After all, this is a new beginning, which heralds the infinite possibilities and glory of Harbor City in the future.
As time goes by, Harbor City's rental levels are bound to rise with its huge passenger flow.
By then, as the Wharf Group, whose main profit model is rent collection, the Harbor City project alone will be enough to achieve a huge accumulation of annual profits. It can be said that there is a lot of money coming in.
Harbour City, a commercial giant that has been planned since the 1960s and carefully constructed for more than ten years, finally ushered in its harvest season in the 1980s.
However, it is a pity that the pioneers who initially decided and promoted the construction of this ambitious project have been unable to witness and enjoy the brilliant achievements and rich rewards it brought.
This honor and benefit has now been captured by Su Cheng and Charter King, two outstanding leaders in the Hong Kong business community. With their wisdom and courage, they have successfully taken over the development of Harbor City. Pass the baton and enjoy the rewards.
Compared with the Charter King, Su Cheng feels that as the second largest shareholder of Harbor City, his situation is much more comfortable.
It is true that the charter king's income is correspondingly more generous because he holds slightly more shares, but behind this is the great effort and energy he has devoted to the management of Wharf.
Su Cheng, on the other hand, seems more calm. He can sit back and enjoy the results leisurely without having to worry too much.
Su Cheng had no fear in his heart as to whether the charter king might be hiding his selfish motives and harming the interests of his second largest shareholder. He has a professional financial team within Wharf, which is like a pair of sharp eyes, always keeping an eye on every account and movement of the company to ensure that his rights and interests are not infringed.
Furthermore, with Su Cheng's current strong financial resources and status, the Charter King did not dare to offend him easily, but often chose to show his favor.
After all, if you really become an enemy of Su City, you are asking for trouble. After all, Su City represents a powerful force that can make any opponent feel afraid.
Therefore, Su City maintains an indifferent attitude towards various possible threats and risks.
In his opinion, excessive worry is unnecessary.
He believes that with the business wisdom and strength of the charter king over the years, he will be able to move forward steadily in the business sea and lead Harbor City and even the entire Wharf Group to develop stronger.
And he is satisfied with the massive dividends every year and enjoys the steady growth of wealth.
The brilliant performance of Wharf, like a bright star, has attracted enthusiastic attention and reports from all media in Hong Kong.
This dazzling achievement has made many Hong Kong businessmen envious and salivating.
In this context, Jardine Matheson's Twisted Bikin and Land Real Estate's general manager Bao Fuda quickly responded to the market boom and urgently convened a meeting of board members.
During the meeting, they reached a consensus and decided to accelerate the process of the Sheung Wan Commercial Plaza project.
The temptation of this commercial treasure land with unlimited potential has made them unable to contain their excitement, eager to participate as soon as possible and share this coveted cake.
Their eyes are shining with the desire for success, and they can’t wait for the commercial plaza project in Sheung Wan to be completed and open for business as soon as possible.
Indeed, with the success of Wharf and other projects, Xiangjiang's commercial real estate market has become the focus of attention as if overnight, and major real estate businessmen have also set their sights on this attractive piece of land. cake.
However, the reality is always cruel. The market capacity is limited and competition is becoming increasingly fierce.
In such a context, the vast majority of real estate projects are destined to face severe challenges.
As more and more commercial plazas are built, the choices for consumers and merchants have become more diverse, but this also means that the market will be further segmented and diversified.
In the end, only a few commercial plazas with unique advantages, precise positioning and proper operation can stand out, attract and retain a large number of people.
It goes without saying that Harbor City will undoubtedly become the most densely populated shopping mall in Hong Kong with its excellent geographical location, rich business layout and many years of brand influence.
When talking about Hutchison Plaza, its unique charm cannot be ignored.
As the first commercial complex in Xiangjiang with advanced service management concepts, it not only created a new model in the industry, but also successfully attracted the attention of a large number of consumers by relying on Su City's abundant resources and profound heritage.
With its high-quality services, innovative experiences and precise market positioning, Hutchison Plaza has effectively retained a considerable portion of its passenger flow, ensuring its leading position in commercial competition and will surely continue to thrive in the market in the future.
