The birth of the Hong Kong Island family

Lin Zhichao is attending the meeting in the conference room of Asia Shipping, a listed company.

Xiao Ma Deng is still the chairman of the board of directors, while Lin Zhichao is the vice chairman of the board of directors. Originally, Xiao Ma Deng intended to step aside, after all, his shares are far less than Lin Zhichao; Don't rush.

Asia Shipping was founded in 1941 and went public in 1948. It was originally part of Wheelock Group, but now Lin Zhichao has obtained the majority shareholder seat.

Little Madden transferred shares twice in a row, and Lin Zhichao took 30% of the shares at a price of 22 million Hong Kong dollars; subsequently, Asia Shipping issued 20% of new shares at the end of May, raising funds of about 20 million Hong Kong dollars.

In this issuance of new shares, Maden gave up the subscription, while Lin Zhichao paid all the shares, so his shareholding increased to 41% (total share capital of 18 million shares). The Wheelock Group only holds about 20% of the shares, which is much lower than that of Global Shipping.

During the meeting, Lin Zhichao asked: "How much is the total amount of funds in the account?"

Norbert, the foreign deputy general manager, said wisely: "The total cash flow is 28.5 million Hong Kong dollars!"

In recent times, this Chinese tycoon has begun to participate in the "power seizure", including raising funds, all planned by Lin Zhichao.

Lin Zhichao nodded and said: "With these funds, I am planning to go to Japan to build a 100,000-ton oil tanker for operation. Does anyone have any objections?"

Little Madden then said: "I support this proposal!"

Subsequently, all directors and senior executives also agreed.

Lin Zhichao officially began to take charge of the company. The annual revenue of Asia Shipping is seven to eight million Hong Kong dollars, and the market value has risen to 120 million Hong Kong dollars. This is because Lin Zhichao's joining has promoted the stock.

However, Lin Zhichao believes that his shareholding is still too small, and he will strive to issue new shares next year to slowly support his shareholding to more than 50%.

After all, a 100,000-ton oil tanker is worth 50 million Hong Kong dollars. When it is delivered next year, Asia Shipping will have a maximum of more than 35 million Hong Kong dollars. At the same time, if it needs to buy some ships during the period, the funds will be even more insufficient.

Of course, fixed-interest bonds can also be issued for financing. Because it is a British-owned listed company, it is a guarantee of credibility in the eyes of investors.

After the meeting, Xiao Maden and Lin Zhichao chatted in the office.

"Lin Sheng, there is another shipping company under Wheelock - Longfeng Investment Co., Ltd., which was established in 1918. I plan to list it in the next two years. If you are interested, you can participate in it."

Lin Zhichao is not surprised. There are many subsidiaries of the Wheelock Group, and it is more convenient for these foreign companies to go public; business.

When a subsidiary is listed, the parent company can also withdraw funds by selling the 25% equity to retail investors, and the funds do not remain in the subsidiary's account.

"Mr. Madden is planning to vigorously develop the real estate industry?"

This year, Wheelock Group restructured its listed company, Hemp Cable Co., Ltd., and changed its name to Hong Kong Real Estate Trust Co., Ltd. The intention is self-evident, that is, to become the flagship company of Wheelock Group.

Although these foreigners are not masters in the real estate industry, they have a lot of land reserves themselves, and it is relatively easier to raise funds through the stock market to buy them than the Chinese.

Xiao Maden nodded and said: "It doesn't count as vigorous, but seeing the vigorous development of Hong Kong's real estate industry, I can't stand idly by."

Lin Zhichao nodded immediately and said, "I am somewhat interested in Longfeng Investment Co., Ltd. We will discuss it in detail later."

Xiao Ma Deng said happily: "Okay! I admire Lin Sheng's shipping business model the most. If Lin Sheng manages these two listed companies, the future development potential will be unlimited."

To put it bluntly, Madden was interested in Lin Zhichao's connections so that he could lease out the oil tanker. The reason why Lin Zhichao can rent out successfully is the long-term rental model and credit guarantee.

With this kind of cooperation, although it is inevitable that Lin Zhichao will seize power, Wheelock can not only cash out funds to subsidize the parent company, but also increase the value of the remaining shares.

After all, although Lin Zhichao is the majority shareholder, Wheelock is still the second shareholder. Their remaining shares will naturally become more and more valuable with Lin Zhichao's strength.

For Lin Zhichao, if Global Shipping has two listed subsidiaries, it is a good choice. Global Shipping itself will not be listed; and the two listed subsidiaries can use the financial market to develop shipping, and they can also serve as The acquisition of 'Wharf' will play a certain role in the future.

Longfeng Investment and Asia Shipping, didn't they make great contributions to Bao Yugang's acquisition of Wharf in his previous life?

And Lin Zhichao used his listed companies to be even more powerful. He raised funds for development when the stock market was strong, and increased holdings or privatized it when the stock market was low. Use the investors' money to develop a company, and eventually the major shareholders will slowly and completely annex the company at a low cost.

As a person with a vision of the next few decades, it would be too much of a waste of one's advantages if one did not make this money.

More importantly, investors have to thank you for buying their stocks at a market value that is 20 to 30% higher during the trough.

night.

In the swimming pool at No. 79 Deep Water Bay, Lin Zhichao was playing with his three beautiful wives.

It has been a month since Audrey Hepburn came to Hong Kong with her two sons. The nine second-generation brothers and sisters of the Lam family took the opportunity to communicate more and lay the foundation for future unity.

Theoretically, the second generation of the Lin family will not have any conflicts. First of all, their mothers have no conflicts with each other, so they will not receive a bad education; second, their future will basically not be in the same company, and there will be no potential conflict of interest; finally, Lin Zhichao can control these cubs, and Lin's Their wealth will be so much that they don't want to fight for it.

"Honey, you are really a stock god, IBM has gone crazy this year!" Audrey He herself was wearing a swimsuit, always looking so noble, and people couldn't help but ruthlessly bullied her.

At this time, Audrey Hepburn gradually became more and more expensive, and her interest in wealth increased greatly. Even in Hong Kong, she made overseas calls to inquire about the market situation of Ella IBM.

In fact, IBM's stock price at the beginning of this year was only 430 US dollars per share, but now it is 650 US dollars per share, which made Lin Zhichao unable to resist the temptation to close the deal.

However, since it has been scheduled to be cleared by the end of the year, we must persist; even if the price is not the highest at the end of the year, we must persist.

Tang Caiyun asked curiously: "Audrey, how many stocks have you invested in?"

Audrey Hepburn said directly without any scheming: "The investment was only more than 10 million US dollars, but now it has risen to 36 million US dollars in market value, an increase of nearly three times. So, I say he is a stock god!"

Xu Caiying immediately shouted: "Wow, you are so rich! Next time you come to the United States, you will have to bleed heavily!"

Audrey was stunned and said in disbelief: "Hemorrhage?"

She can speak Chinese well, but she has not fully understood the breadth and depth of Chinese.

Tang Caiyun and Xu Caiying laughed and then explained.

Audrey immediately smiled and said: "What do I think it is? Whatever you want, I will give it to you! Second sister!"

The second sister's voice was deliberately drawn out, but in fact Audrey Hepburn was the oldest among them, being two months older than Tang Caiyun.

But since I have become a concubine, I naturally follow the order of entry.

Xu Caiying immediately went up to play with Audrey Hepburn, and the swimming pool was filled with spring scenery.

After a while, Lin Zhichao said to the three women who gathered around him: "Audrey's stock market value should break through 40 million US dollars this year, and then he will temporarily withdraw from US stock investment. Wait for the stock price to fall for a while, and then copy it in. During this period, we will also invest in a hotel or office building. In short, they are all my women, and I will try my best to create good conditions for you and your children."

Some things just have to be said openly!

Tang Caiyun nodded and said, "Compared to Hong Kong, the market in the United States is even bigger! With my husband's business skills and vision, Sanfang's business will not be bad in the future."

Audrey Hepburn said curiously: "Third room? Oh. I understand this. Because I am the third room, I am called the third room."

Lin Zhichao smiled and said: "It's good to know! From now on, you will not be my lover, but Sanfang. But it's better to keep a low profile, and don't hold the ceremony in Hong Kong. This will help Sanfang to develop its business in the West, especially the United States."

Audrey Hepburn naturally wouldn't care about this. After all, she planned to be a lover from the beginning. Now that she has seen the first and second bedrooms, she feels that the third bedroom is not bad either.

As a big brother, Tang Caiyun is very magnanimous and doesn't mind at all that Audrey Hepburn's wealth is already 100 million US dollars.

Audrey Toys has been listed, and its market value is as high as more than 100 million US dollars. Audrey holds 51% of the shares, while Changjiang Toy Factory only holds less than 10% of the shares. Many shares have been transferred to Audrey Hepburn.

Of course, Tang Caiyun also knows one thing, that is, Yangtze River Industries is also investing in US stocks, with a total of 35 million U.S. dollars, and now it is nearly 50 million U.S. dollars.

This year, the investment fund of Yangtze River Industrial Group can steadily earn more than 30%, not losing to Buffett's income this year.

"Husband, I want to buy such a big house in Hong Kong!" Audrey Hepburn suddenly said: "Otherwise, why would it be called a three-bedroom house?"

Lin Zhichao smiled and said: "Already thinking about it! But buying a house is not an easy matter. You have to consider Feng Shui luck. I have already found a place for you, that is Repulse Bay No. 1 Mansion. After I get it done, you can just move in. Arrive The time will be transferred to your name."

Lin Zhichao had already set his sights on No. 1 Mansion in Repulse Bay. After all, a gambler who is an amateur, how can he be blessed to enjoy it.

Audrey Hepburn said: "How much money, I will give you!"

Lin Zhichao slapped her on the buttocks from the water, and said, "Even after the reconstruction, it's less than one million dollars. Will I ask you for money?"

Suddenly, there was a frolic in the water!

"Honey, we have to be in the water again!"

"The water was just changed and is now clean!"

Soon, everyone was resting on the edge of the pool!

During this period, everyone was joking and chatting.

"Husband, what do you think we will look like in twenty years, is it still attractive to you?" Tang Caiyun looked at Lin Zhichao and Xu Caiying, and said in a tone full of longing.

She is 32 years old this year, but everything is exactly the same as ten years ago, which makes her 'ambitious'. She is not afraid of getting old, but she is afraid of losing her husband's favor.

Lin Zhichao pulled out a hand, raised her chin, looked at her seriously and said: "You are my wife, how can I protect everyone's relationship? As for what it will be like, everyone has taken care of it so well. I personally think that when you are 70 years old, you are still attractive!"

What he said was that if there were no trivial matters in life, the relationship between husband and wife would never be able to suffer from the seven-year itch. It’s just that too many trivial matters and contradictions in life have consumed everyone’s passion.

In this regard, the Lin family naturally does not exist. First of all, Lin Zhichao is the head of the family, and women respect him very much; secondly, Lin Zhichao also takes good care of everyone.

As for the issue of skin, to be honest, I have seen actresses such as Zhao Yazhi and Guan Zhilin in their 60s and 70s in previous lives. Lin Zhichao feels that men are acceptable, even young men.

What's more, his women are anti-aging. Even at seventy years old, they are probably very attractive.

Since he has charm, Lin Zhichao certainly won't waste it, and he has to take care of it from time to time. Even though he has so many young girlfriends, after all, the young ones are the adjustment, and the more familiar ones are the companionship.

After getting Lin Zhichao's answer, the waves in the swimming pool rose higher.

Kai Tak Airport.

Lin Zhichao, accompanied by Hill, expressed condolences to some of the crew members, and the atmosphere was very good. At this time, he had complete control of Hong Kong Airlines. Not only was he excellent in ability, but he also held financial power.

Almost all of Hong Kong Airlines' funds were "emptied out" by Lin Zhichao - no matter what kind of company it is to buy a new aircraft, financial power is the most critical; this is the truth as the saying goes.

"Hey, it seems the flight attendant of this flight has been replaced?" Lin Zhichao said deliberately.

"Yes, I have resigned!" Hill replied.

Lin Zhichao asked in confusion: "Is it because our benefits are not good enough? Or is the company not caring enough?"

Hilton was a little unable to answer and paused.

A stewardess said quickly: "No, it's Sakurai Hinako. She went back to work in a Japanese company!"

Lin Zhichao nodded and stopped asking about this matter. He was just doing this to show that he cared about his employees and took care of everything.

Later, when he returned to the office building, Lin Zhichao held a meeting with the management.

"President Hill, does Hong Kong Airlines need to order two more Boeing 707s?"

Hill and the others were overjoyed immediately, and he even said: "Need! Hong Kong's tourism rate is booming now, and the flights are almost full. If you add new planes, you can consider opening up new routes to Japan, such as to Osaka, or There are plans to phase out DC-3 aircraft and use them for charter flights or cargo flights."

If two more Boeing 707s are added, Hong Kong Airlines will have 4 Boeing 707s and 2 Grand Dukes (76 seats), and the remaining three DC-3s can be used as scraps.

Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "Well, I looked at the financial statements. Hong Kong Airlines currently has a debt of more than 5 million U.S. dollars, and its annual profit has grown to 1.8 million U.S. dollars. It is imperative to purchase new aircraft. In this way, I will talk to you later. After negotiating the loan with HSBC, you fly to the United States to order from Boeing.”

Hill nodded and said: "Okay"

I am not afraid of having too much debt, and I have no intention of making a profit in the 1960s anyway. It is the best investment to use all the profits to buy airplanes.

Currently, Hong Kong Airlines' profits are higher than those of Cathay Pacific, of course not including Swire's mechanical engineering business. This is because Hong Kong Airlines’ routes are busier. Tokyo and Taiwan are popular routes, and even the Philippines is busier than Malaysia’s routes.

Therefore, Swire has directly lost a gold ingot. Although Cathay Pacific can open direct flights to Europe and the United States, Hong Kong Airlines will also have a mainland market in the future.

"By the way, ground handling services and airport security services must be proposed to Kai Tak Airport for cooperation as soon as possible. Before Cathay Pacific Airways fails to respond, we must acquire these services and expand Hong Kong Airlines' business."

Hill said: "We are secretly forming a team and will be looking for cooperation this year!"

Mosquitoes, no matter how small they are, are still meat. Hong Kong's machine repair engineering business is too huge for Lin Chi-chao to get a share of the pie, but ground handling and security services can catch Cathay Pacific off guard.

As for the later air cargo terminal, Hong Kong Airlines could only get a share of the pie. After all, in such a big business, the Hong Kong government would definitely consider more British capital; but as one of the local airlines, Hong Kong Airlines has the absolute right to occupy more than 20% shares, not to mention HSBC’s share.

After a brief meeting, Lin Zhichao looked at the time.

"I have to catch a flight!"

Afterwards, a group of foreign executives sent Lin Zhichao to the door.

Lin Zhichao will take a flight to Japan to attend the launching ceremony of an oil tanker and order another 100,000-ton oil tanker for Asia Shipping.

After arriving in Tokyo, he immediately rushed to Sakurai Hinako's residence, which was a high-end apartment.

"Mr. Lin, you are here!"

The moment the apartment door opened, Lin Zhichao's eyes lit up. He saw Sakurai Hinako wearing a beautiful kimono, looking very Japanese.

"Well, you're dressed up beautifully today!"

Lin Zhichao praised generously.

Sakurai Hinako took Lin Zhichao's suitcase and then knelt down to put on his slippers. The service was very attentive. Of course, Lin Zhichao is treated like this everywhere, and he is a capable man.

"By the way, how about the new job? If you don't like it, you can choose not to go. After all, I arranged it this way just to give you something to do." Lin Zhichao sat on the sofa with his legs crossed.

Sakurai Hinako knelt in front of her, leaning on his thigh, looking at Lin Zhichao lovingly.

"I like it very much! The colleagues in the new company are very kind to me, and President Anteng also takes good care of me and arranges easy work for me. How about, let's visit the apartment here. I bought it for more than a month. This is your first time here."

Lin Zhichao got up and said, "Okay, let's take a look!"

This is a 200-square-meter apartment located in the Central District of Tokyo. Even so, the price is only 38,000 US dollars; it is almost the same level as the Mid-Levels of Hong Kong.

After Lin Zhichao finished his visit, he said: "You should check out the villa in Tokyo again. I don't like this kind of house very much. It doesn't matter if it is luxurious, I can give it to you."

Lin Zhichao seems to be this style of giving property away if he disagrees. After all, if you don’t manage your relationship carefully, others are only looking for your money, and you are keeping money, which is more or less unjustifiable.

Hinako Sakurai threw herself into Lin Zhichao's arms happily, and said, "Will it be too wasteful?"

Lin Zhichao picked up her kimono and slipped his hands into it. He enjoyed the smooth skin very much. After all, it was a new taste. Recently, he still missed it very much. He would call to Hong Kong two or three times a month.

"It's not a waste at all! If you think it's a waste, then please serve me well, so it's not a waste!"

Paying in installments is more appropriate!

Hinako Sakurai understood in seconds, and immediately said: "I have prepared red wine and delicious food. While we are eating, I will dance our Japanese dance for you!"

Lin Zhichao said in a good mood: "Then what are you waiting for!"

Over the years, he has often been invited by Japanese partners to see some very good performances, but he has never made a mistake again.

Today's atmosphere is very good, and I must make serious mistakes later.

Soon, Hinako Sakurai prepared the food prepared in advance on the coffee table in the living room, and opened red wine for Lin Zhichao. After all, before Lin Zhichao came to Tokyo, he had informed her that he would stay in Tokyo for one night.

As the music played, Sakurai Hinako was really rich. The light Japanese music played, and she danced in front of Lin Zhichao.

The temptation under the kimono made Lin Zhi swallow his own saliva over time.

When Sakurai Hinako came closer to him, Lin Zhichao took off her skirt, and it turned out to be a classic white underwear.

The dance continues!

"Papa"

Lin Zhichao applauded.

Sakurai Hinako, who was slightly fragrant, came to Lin Zhichao, poured wine and clinked glasses.

"Can I serve you now?"

Lin Zhichao raised her chin and said, "Go and change into a pair of black stockings, then come over and have dinner with me!"

"Hey, I'll come as soon as I go."

Between two people, sex is the most important thing, so there is no need to hide it.

When it comes to feelings, yes, but not much!

After a while, Sakurai Hinako came to Lin Zhichao again.

"Let's eat together! You'll be very good later. You little goblin has already whetted my appetite."

"As long as you like it, my master!"

The charm of money is indeed great!

Of course, it is undeniable that although Sakurai Hinako likes money, she also likes Lin Zhichao's handsomeness and bravery.

In later generations, there will always be netizens who think that women like rich men, but they don’t know that men also like beautiful women. What’s the difference?

Lin Zhichao is rich, handsome, and capable, and is destined to be a bulldozer in the future.

He has restrained himself all these years because: First, women in this era are more conservative in thinking. Even if they are concubines, others need a reputation, or they can easily give birth to children and tie men; second, Lin Zhichao hopes that the family will be stable first. In ten years, the children have grown up, and stabilizing the family comes first.

So, let’s hide our strength and bide our time for more than 20 years before we talk!

"What's your family situation like?" Lin Zhichao asked casually.

"I also have a younger sister and two younger brothers. My father and mother are working on ordinary wages. Both my younger brothers are studying. I will use part of my salary to support their younger sister who also came to Tokyo to make a salary. She also just graduated from university."

It's amazing. Two working-class families raised two daughters and two sons. Both daughters actually graduated from college. Of course, it is also a good idea for the eldest to use money to support his younger siblings after graduation.

Lin Zhichao got to know Sakurai Hinako for the first time, and suddenly felt that she liked money, and there was nothing wrong with it.

While chatting, Lin Zhichao untied Sakurai Hinako's kimono...
