Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 666: 9 Longcang!

"To be honest, Mr. Shen! I was in a bad mood today because an old friend of mine just passed away!"

Shen Bi bowed her body and said, "It's a pity, I also ask Lisheng to mourn and change!"

Li Zhaotian nodded, "Thank you! But it is a blessing to be able to meet you, Daban Shen today! It's not because of the relationship between my daughter and your son, but because I feel like I met you right away!"

Shen Bi smiled, took a sip of the black tea, looked at Li Zhaotian and said, "It's a coincidence, I also feel the same way! I really like the painting you gave me, Mr. Li!"

"Small idea, it's just one painting. As long as you like Shen Daban, I will send you a few more in the future! Of course, those are all paintings by famous ancient Chinese masters!" Li Zhaotian said in a generous tone.

Shen Bi was really overjoyed. He was very fond of antiques, such as calligraphy and painting, clocks, wristwatches, etc., and he studied deeply.

In the future, he will write the collection into a book "Shen Bi Collection Table" after leaving office. Using the best paper and the most precise printing, the layout is modeled after the monograph of the American consortium Morgan's collection of watches, limited to 100 copies, and in turn, it has become a book treasure sought after by countless tycoons!

"Actually, I am very impressed with you, Li Sheng. I still remember that when Mr. Li Jiacheng gave his wife Zhuang Yueming a birthday party, we met once!"

Li Zhaotian smiled: "Of course I remember! At that time, it seemed that you and Ms. Zhuang had a very good relationship, and even gave a very precious gift - it seems to be an antique necklace from Christie's, right?"

Li Zhaotian was just joking, but Shen Bi's expression changed and she said, "Ms. Zhuang and I have a lot of business dealings! You know, Ms. Zhuang is proficient in English and familiar with the laws and regulations. Mr. Li often Let her help me get in touch!"

Li Zhaotian said, I didn't ask you to explain, could this ghost be a thief with a guilty conscience?

"Ahem, forgive me! In fact, Ricci now has a lot of business that can cooperate with you HSBC, but I don't know what Mr. Shen's plan is?"

Shen Bi smiled, stirring the black tea with a spoon, "Excuse me, what kind of business is it?"

Li Zhaotian originally wanted to talk about taking a loan from HSBC to start Hong Kong Disneyland, but immediately thought that it would be difficult to do such a big project when the two met for the first time.

"It's like this. In fact, I recently took a fancy to a company and wanted to win it. I wonder if Shen Daban can help?"

"What company and how much does it cost?"

Shen Bi was a HSBC executive who opened the door to do business. Since Li Zhaotian wanted a loan, of course he would not refuse it!

Li Zhaotian smiled and spit out three words: "Wharf!"

...

Wharf is not a warehouse in the strict sense, but the largest cargo port in Hong Kong, with an open-air cargo yard and a cargo warehouse at the deep-water wharf.

In 1886, Paul Chater took the lead in setting up a dock warehouse in Kowloon, and Jardine Matheson was one of its major shareholders.

As a listed company of the Jardine Department, it is also known as the "two wings of Jardine" together with Landmark.

The properties of Kowloon Godown Limited include most of the wharfs and warehouses in Tsim Sha Tsui, New Territories and Hong Kong Island, as well as hotels, buildings, trams and the Star Ferry in Kowloon. With a long history and strong assets, it can be said that whoever owns the Wharf will control most of the cargo handling, storage and transportation and cross-sea ferries in Hong Kong.

Jardine, the parent company of Wharf, together with Hutchison Whampoa, Swire Group, and Wheelock are known as the four major foreign firms in Hong Kong.

Jardine sits in the four major foreign firms, and Jardine Taipan is also the chairman of Wharf, which shows that Wharf plays a pivotal role in Jardine

Li Zhaotian has always used Landmark as a competitor. Wharf caught his attention as a "moving nest" of Wharf. Not long ago, the railway station was moved eastward, and Wharf moved its freight business to Kwai Chung and the west of the peninsula, and the vacated land was used for Develop commercial buildings.

Li Zhaotian praised the founder of Wharf for obtaining this feng shui treasure at a very cheap price.

Wharf has successively built well-known buildings such as Harbour City and Ocean Center Building. However, in terms of operation methods, they are not commendable. They insist on building buildings with their own assets, only renting and not selling, resulting in sluggish capital backflow and causing the group to fall into financial crisis. In order to solve the crisis, a large number of bonds were sold to extract cash, which made the group's debts rise, its credibility declined, and its stocks depreciated.

Li Zhaotian has imagined many times that if he came to preside over the real estate development of the former Wharf warehouse, he would never be in such a predicament. If the funds on hand are relatively abundant, or the property market is sluggish and the property price is low, it is best to keep it as a rental property; if the capital is urgently needed to return to speed up the construction speed, and the property market is booming and property prices are high, it is advisable to sell the property.

Of course, these are all Li Zhaotian's ideas at this stage. In his view, winning the Wharf is just an appetizer. When he really stands firm, he will mortgage the Wharf and raise funds from HSBC. Relying on the "investment attraction" of the British Hong Kong government to build Disneyland in the Lantau area!

If Disney is really successful~www.wuxiamtl.com~ he will be able to revitalize the entire Lantau Island area, and he will be the actual "King of Land" in the entire Hong Kong area!

...

Hearing that Li Zhaotian proposed the plan to acquire "Wharf", Shen Bi smiled.

The reason is very simple. Wharf is affiliated to Jardine International, which is affiliated to the four major foreign companies. Judging from the current situation in Hong Kong, Jardine will never sell such a big piece of fat to a Chinese tycoon!

The reason is very simple. Although the Chinese are rising, in the eyes of these ghosts, they are still very low!

Seeing Shen Bi just smiling and not talking, Li Zhaotian took a sip of the black tea, then looked at Shen Bi and said, "The times have changed! Hong Kong is not only the world of you British people, you can also see it , we Chinese businessmen are on the rise! As a senior executive of HSBC, you should also think about it. How long do you want to sit in the position of vice president? Only by making some shocking achievements can you stabilize the throne of general manager of HSBC! At that time, you can Called a real 'big class'!"

Shen Bi's expression changed, as if she was thinking about something.

Li Zhaotian observed his words and continued: "Hey, my daughter and your son have a very good relationship! Maybe we will become in-laws in the future! You also know our Chinese rules, being in-law is a family! Talking about the two, we need to help each other, don't we?"

Hearing this, Shen Bi seemed to have made a decision, and suddenly picked up the black tea and said, "I can give you the money, and I can help you pave the way! As for whether you can handle the big guys from Jardine International, it's up to you!"

Li Zhaotian smiled, picked up the black tea and touched Shen Bi lightly: "Thank you! Use tea instead of wine! I wish us a happy cooperation!"

Swallow the Wharf!

He Li Zhaotian will be the number one Chinese businessman!
