For charity, just do it occasionally.
Sucheng’s main business is still making money.
After all, only when you have money can you do what you want to do, otherwise everything is nonsense.
Time passed like this day by day, and it soon entered December of 1984.
This month, something of great significance to Xiangjiang happened.
That is, the negotiations on the future of Xiangjiang have ended. The future of Xiangjiang is no longer a mystery, but has its whereabouts.
The signing of the "Joint Declaration" also officially resolved the Hong Kong issue left over from history.
When the "Joint Statement" was spread to the whole of Hong Kong through major news, some people were happy and some were sad.
At this moment, the people of Xiangjiang are divided into two groups. Those who support it are more confident in the future of Xiangjiang, while those who do not support it are trying to find ways to immigrate to Xiangjiang.
As for those foreign companies, they all choose to move their companies' listing and registration places, such as to Bermuda, or move their headquarters to London.
However, even if their registered headquarters is moved overseas, it is of no use. After all, their main business still has to rely on Xiangjiang. Moving the headquarters is just a cover-up, unless they are willing to give up the business in Xiangjiang.
The "Joint Statement" clearly stipulates the arrangement of land contracts in Xiangjiang, which can be said to have greatly given people in Xiangjiang full confidence in Xiangjiang real estate.
So, in Hong Kong in 1984, after more than two years of silence, the real estate industry finally began to recover in the fourth quarter.
In 1985, the real estate market became even more active. Property prices and rents began to rebound. Real estate developers also actively increased land reserves and expanded supply.
The trading volume of the market has also begun to increase significantly, even significantly doubling compared with the same period in previous years.
As transactions increased, housing prices naturally increased. Before long, housing prices returned to the peak prices in 1981.
All this happened naturally after the "Joint Statement" came out.
A prosperous Xiangjiang is back again.
In the past two years, the major companies in Su City have made the greatest profits.
During the two years of decline, his major companies, under the arrangement of Suzhou City, continued to secretly purchase cheap commercial buildings, industrial buildings, land and even official land.
After the "Joint Statement" came out, it didn't take long for the properties held by Sioux City's companies to basically double, and housing prices continued to rise.
Because the arrangements for land contracts in Xiangjiang in the "Joint Declaration" have given the general public enough confidence, they are no longer afraid of any problems in the future when buying a house now.
"Boss, how did you guess that housing prices in Xiangjiang will skyrocket soon?" Yang Chaoye asked emotionally in an office at the Tseung Kwan O headquarters base.
In the past two years, the Su Group has purchased more than HK$10 billion in properties and land in Hong Kong.
Now, the value of these properties and land has exceeded 20 billion, and it is still rising.
"How long did any real estate crisis last? What's more, the current international economy has not yet reached its bottleneck. The economic trough is only short-lived, so the real estate crisis must be short-lived. People must be bold. "Well, so many of my industries are in Xiangjiang. If I didn't believe in the future of Xiangjiang, I would have moved all my industries. Why would I have such a large footprint in Xiangjiang?" Su Cheng said with a smile.
He has invested a lot all over the world, but according to the investment funds, it is definitely the largest in Xiangjiang.
After all, whether it is Su Group or Hutchison Whampoa Group, etc., their headquarters are here in Xiangjiang.
This is also his territory.
"This is true. When it comes to courage, boss you have surpassed most people in Hong Kong. As far as I know, between 1983 and 1984, no one like you, boss, acquired land on such a large scale. , commercial buildings, etc., you are the only one, like Hutchison Whampoa, you have only purchased a small part of it in the past two years, and you don't dare to make big purchases." Yang Chaoye agreed.
In addition to the Su Group, Yang Chaoye also knows that basically all the companies under his boss continue to invest in real estate and continue to increase their stakes in property holdings in the real estate industry.
In fact, Hutchison Whampoa holds more properties than Su Group. According to his understanding, Hutchison Whampoa started acquiring properties during the real estate downturn, and by the time the "Joint Statement" was issued, it was enough It has acquired nearly 20 billion in real estate properties, land, etc.
And these land properties have now doubled, that is to say, the market value of 20 billion has directly turned into a market value of 40 billion.
This kind of surge is unimaginable.
At this moment, Yang Chaoye had to lament that it was too easy for the boss to make money.
Now, after two years, it finally pays off.
This is the boss’s foresight. Who would dare to do this to other bosses?
In Xiangjiang, even Li Ka-shing, Bao Yugang and others do not dare to do this.
For example, Huifeng Bank, Jardine Matheson, etc. are constantly venturing overseas, trying to shift their focus from Hong Kong to overseas, because they have no confidence in the future of Hong Kong, just because their main businesses are In Xiangjiang, I had no choice but to stay in Xiangjiang.
If there was really a chance to run away without any loss, these British-funded companies would have run away long ago. How could they wait until now?
When Su City asked Yang Chaoye and others to continue acquiring, Yang Chaoye, Wei Li and others also raised objections.
However, these companies are the private property of the boss. Even in listed public utility companies such as Hong Kong Electric Group, the boss holds almost half of the shares.
Normally, although the boss doesn't care about things, at critical times, his decision-making still has to be the main one.
At that time, both Yang Chaoye and Wei Li felt a little helpless.
But after the "Joint Statement" came out, these generals under Su City admired Su City very much.
Look, this is a truly wise decision.
At this moment, these executives finally know why the boss can make so much money, and they are only suitable for professional management.
Nowadays, among people like Wei Li, Zhang Qizheng, Yang Chaoye and others, who is not a billionaire?
With the strength of these people, they can easily create a large company.
But no one did that.
Because they feel that it is more profitable to be an executive and a person in charge under Su City.
When it comes to starting a business, there are too many uncertainties.
In the past two years, we have learned that among the many enterprises in Hong Kong, many are losing money.
When they start a business, they may not really make money, they may even lose money. If you can help your boss manage the company well, you will not only get a high base salary, but also more profit dividends.
These dividends are enough for them to become rich.
Of course, the reason why Su Cheng is so bold is naturally because he knows the future development of Xiangjiang. With Xiao Ai, a super smart brain, controlling the future development direction, there is no way to make money, then But this golden finger is wasted.
“Boss, to be honest, I really regret it. If all my family assets had been invested in real estate to buy land and properties during the real estate crisis, their assets would have doubled now. But now, But there is no chance." Speaking of this, Yang Chaoye was full of regrets.
After working in the Su Group for several years, his assets have now reached two to three hundred million Hong Kong dollars.
If he were bolder and followed Su City to invest in real estate, then the two to three hundred million would be worth at least five or six billion Hong Kong dollars.
It would be a lie to say that I have no regrets.
Since the economic downturn, Yang Chaoye has stopped investing and has chosen to deposit his money in the bank.
But how can the little interest earned by putting money in the bank outrun inflation?
So, in fact, his money has been depreciating!
"Mr. Yang, let me give you a suggestion. If you can trust me, use this money to invest in the stocks of listed companies under my subsidiaries such as Land Group and Hong Kong Electric Group. In the future, their growth rate will not be higher than that of real estate. Oh no, in addition to these listed companies under my umbrella, you can also invest in Huifeng Bank. I am a shareholder of Huifeng Bank. Although they have now shifted their focus overseas, judging from their investment strategy, I think it is very good. In the future, Huifeng Bank will definitely become a large international bank, not just a regional bank in Xiangjiang!" Su Cheng gave his opinion without hesitation.
It's up to him to decide whether to listen or not.
Yang Chaoye also helped him a lot and managed the Su Group in an orderly manner. This alone was enough for Su Cheng to give him advice willingly.
Nowadays, Yang Chaoye is over sixty years old, but thanks to the many good benefits Sioux City has given them and the complete medical institutions, Yang Chaoye is still the same old man with a rosy face, and he looks like he has nothing at all. health problems.
In this way, he can continue to shine for Su City and make more contributions to Su Group.
After listening to Su Cheng's suggestion, Yang Chaoye started to think about it.
All his money is stored in the bank owned by his boss, Cali Bank.
In fact, all the senior executives and employees of Sioux City basically deposit their money in Jiali Bank, because the interest rate of Jiali Bank is higher than that of other banks.
Moreover, they have enough confidence in the boss. With the boss’s assets, there will definitely be no problems with Kali Bank.
In other banks, they are still afraid of bank runs.
Claire Bank has also invested in many real estate properties in the past two years. Although not as exaggerated as Hutchison Whampoa Group, it has also invested more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.
And now, these real estate investments have doubled their profits.
If they slowly sell the properties in their hands now, their profits will be very large.
Bank funds also need to grow through continuous investment. Huifeng Bank, for example, is constantly investing.
After all, when customers save money, they also need to pay interest. If the bank does not invest, where will the bank get the extra interest? Wouldn’t it mean that the losses are getting bigger and bigger?
So, banks often use the funds stored by depositors to invest!
Naturally, the bank takes the money it earns and only needs to pay a small amount of interest.
But if there is a loss, the bank will have to bear it.
Not only that, the customer’s interest is also indispensable.
"Yes, it's time for me to think about investment." Yang Chaoye nodded.
He is very relaxed when managing the Su Group.
But when it comes to dealing with his own assets, Yang Chaoye appears to be very cautious.
The ultimate reason is that your assets belong to you. If you lose money, you really lose money.
As for the company's investment, the general trend is to follow the direction decided by the boss. Even if it loses money, there is no loss to him, it is just a little less dividend.
It is human nature to think about one's own interests. Who doesn't work for the salary? Is it true that some people work for the boss?
“By the way, boss, I plan to develop a tourist resort base in Yangcheng. The economic development of the mainland, especially the economic development of Guangdong Province, is getting better and better, and there are more and more wealthy consumers. The current layout will definitely become very popular in a few years. There is no one like Tseung Kwan O tourist resort in Guangcheng, they only have some small amusement parks," Yang Chaoye said.
At the beginning, the reason why Sioux City built the Tseung Kwan O tourist resort was basically based on the famous Chimelong tourist resort in later generations.
Today, this tourist resort is obviously very successful. Although its annual profits are not very good among so many industries under its umbrella, the income is very stable, and it can occupy such a large area. a piece of land.
After all, tourist resorts require very large land. If you invest, you will have a reason to buy land.
Otherwise, if the land is not developed after purchasing it, the local government will also have objections.
There is indeed no large tourist resort in Yangcheng now.
The famous Chimelong Tourist Resort was only officially established in 1989.
And now, it is only 1985.
In other words, if he does it now, it will be equivalent to taking away Chimelong's status.
"Okay, you just have to decide on this matter. The location must be chosen well. The closer to the city center, the better!" Su Cheng said directly.
The investment in a tourist resort does not need to be too big. According to the investment in the tourist resort in Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong, excluding the land value, it is only 200-300 million Hong Kong dollars.
The land in Yangcheng is now very cheap.
“Okay, then I will go to Yangcheng sometime to discuss this matter with the relevant local departments and invest in it. They are very enthusiastic. We have made so many investments in Yangcheng. I I believe they will definitely choose a very good piece of land for us," Yang Chaoye said with a smile.
"I suggest that this tourist resort should be placed in Haizhu or Huangpu in Yangcheng, with a land area of several million square meters!" Su Cheng suggested.
The future Chimelong Tourist Resort will eventually be located in Panyu. Although it is not bad, it is still a bit far from the city center and the passenger flow will definitely be affected.
But if it is placed in the city center, the passenger flow will definitely be much larger. (End of chapter)
