I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

[The last part of the previous article has been changed! 】

Since the last time, Wu Guangyao felt that the office building leased by Oriental Media was a bit crowded, and immediately arranged for the building owned by Changshi Real Estate to be used by Oriental News Agency.

In the bottom-buying operation in 1958, Cheung Kong Real Estate bought 200,000 square feet of commercial land, 1.1 million square feet of residential land, and 5 old-fashioned six-story buildings.

After the 5 buildings are purchased, they will naturally not be rented out, and they are all prepared to be demolished and rebuilt in the future.

However, this kind of old-fashioned building does not occupy a large area. If you want to rebuild a commercial building, you have to buy the surrounding land from the Hong Kong government or the surrounding owners!

Moreover, Wu Guangyao will not be in a hurry to build so many buildings, after all, there are already two buildings under preparation, they are the 'Central District Land King' and the 'Original Universal Building'.

As for the development time of these five buildings, Wu Guangyao planned to complete it in 1967, when the real estate plummeted.

It is normal for real estate developers to hoard land and old houses for ten or twenty years. Li Chaoren is a representative of this aspect, known as the "big landlord of Hong Kong Island".

"Manager Fang, how is this commercial building?" Fang Xueming said when Wu Guangyao came to Eastern News Agency to inspect the work.

"Well, don't mention how happy everyone is! This is an independent commercial building. How many companies in Hong Kong Island can have this kind of treatment! Recently, everyone's mental state is better!" Fang Xueming said with a smile.

Wu Guangyao nodded and said, "I have a lot of commercial buildings, which just makes everyone's working environment better!"

After finishing speaking, I went shopping in the Eastern News Agency.

Fang Xueming was stunned when he heard Wu Guangyao's words. The boss is indeed rich, and there are many commercial buildings!

The news agency on Hong Kong Island is like a brain, receiving various messages every day, sorting them out, and disseminating them.

Therefore, many of the staff here are soft scholars like editors and clerks; but it is precisely this kind of soft scholars that the outside gangs dare not provoke.

Gang members generally don't take the initiative to provoke reporters and newspapers, because the pen is also powerful.

After turning around, Wu Guangyao said to Fang Xueming beside him: "Manager Fang, I have very high requirements for the Eastern News Agency! The time is ripe, and we will even go to the world; in terms of future importance, the Eastern News Agency will even exceed Oriental Press. So, our current scale is far from enough. You need to gradually expand our scale in terms of talents, equipment, and management.

Apply to the group company for as much capital as you need, don't be too conservative! "

When Fang Xueming heard it, he was shocked. He didn't expect that the boss was not satisfied with the fast-growing Eastern News Agency in the eyes of many executives; but he soon realized that the boss is not short of money. , it may be more about allowing the boss to learn more about international business intelligence!

Sure enough, Wu Guangyao went on to say: "Eastern News Agency will set up another business intelligence team to serve my company first, and other companies can also be served. Of course, the meal needs to be eaten by mouthfuls, and the scale will change from small to large; you can send him As a long-term strategy, there is no rush."

It can be said that news agencies have many important forces, and the powerful four news agencies can even influence world public opinion;

Of course, it is impossible for the Eastern News Agency to become that kind of existence. The Eastern News Agency is more developed towards commercial intelligence.

"Are you eager to become a hero? Do you also have chivalry in your heart?"

"Then pick up a pen, write your own history of martial arts, and submit it to Ming Pao!"

"The first "New School of Martial Arts" call for papers is officially launched. Those who are selected will not only be paid to serialize "Ming Pao", but also share a bonus of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars!"

"Ming Pao" held the first "New School of Martial Arts" Call for Contributions, which set off a wave of new martial arts creations in Hong Kong Island, Sing Island, Taiwan Island, Malay, Thailand and other places.

"Ming Pao", as the first newspaper to serialize new martial arts, has made famous martial arts masters such as Liang Yusheng and Jin Yong over the years, and enjoys a high reputation in Chinese circles at home and abroad; coupled with this generous bonus, many people are eager to move.

At this time, in an office building, Jin Yong looked at the "Ming Pao" in his hand, and couldn't help showing a wry smile!

"Ming Pao seems to be aiming at me, 100,000 Hong Kong dollars is a big deal!"

The more Jin Yong thought about it, the more he felt that "Ming Pao" was deliberately targeting him. After all, as one of the two serialized martial arts masters in "Ming Pao", leaving to work alone had a great impact on "Ming Pao", and it was inevitable that he would be retaliated against.

It's just that I didn't expect that revenge was such an open conspiracy!

Even Jin Yong himself felt that this conspiracy was too high, and it was hard for him to resist!

"Liang Yong, the situation is not good! In this way, "Ming Pao" may discover many talented people, and it will be even more difficult for us to shake "Ming Pao" by then! I have always thought that Wu Guangyao would not care about such small things. For a small newspaper, I didn’t expect to make such a big determination this time, and our Xinming Daily has a bad start!” Shen Baoxin couldn’t help feeling a little pessimistic.

In Hong Kong Island, no one dares to take food from the tiger's mouth when doing business!

Seeing Shen Baoxin's pessimism, Cha Liangyong's heart was shocked, and he immediately realized that he could not continue to be so pessimistic.

"Bao Xin, there is a reason for one person to contract all the business in the world! I believe that our "Xin Ming Daily" will not be overthrown, you just need to manage it seriously; Time, let’s make good use of it; when we have enough loyal readers, even if the martial arts of "Ming Pao" develops, then our loyal readers will not abandon us!"

Shen Baoxin also realized that he has no way out now, he and Cha Liangyong have put all their savings into "Xin Ming Daily"; if they fail, Cha Liangyong can continue to find newspapers to serialize martial arts, but he will be in trouble !

"Well, you have a lot of loyal readers after all. You have to work harder at the moment, and I will go outside to do more business. In short, we are fighting to the death, and we are bound to grab a piece of meat from "Ming Pao."

 …

Since last year (1958), Gu Long dropped out of school and lived with the dancer Zheng Yuexia (Lily) in the Zheng family in Ruifang Town, Taipei County.

In order to make a living, Gu Long began to engage in martial arts creation.

When Gu Long saw the "New Martial Arts" Contest on "Ming Pao", he couldn't help jumping up.

"100,000 Hong Kong dollars! God help me too!"

It's no wonder that Gu Long is so excited, the days of living under the fence, the days of having no money in his pocket, are really terrible!

Although there are beauties waiting for you, you can't see other people!

Thinking of other people's eyes, Gu Long's teeth itch with hatred, who do you look down on!

Sooner or later, I can also become a generation of martial arts masters, and the manuscript fee will be 60 thousand characters!

What you earn in a day is what you earn in a month!

Seeing that Gu Long was so excited, Zheng Yuexia couldn't help asking: "What makes you so excited?"

Gu Long handed the newspaper to Zheng Yuexia and said, "Read it yourself!"

Zheng Yuexia read the content of "Ming Pao" and became happy. Her lover definitely has talent. She started writing a lot of poems in high school, which shows her talent!

"It's really a good thing! I believe you will win the first place. The prize for the first place seems to be 30,000 Hong Kong dollars; and it can also be serialized in Ming Pao. Calculated based on the remuneration of 40 Hong Kong dollars per thousand words, we will be able to own our own house by then. !" Zheng Yuexia fell into fantasy.

"Well, I plan to submit my debut novel "Sword of the Sky" to Ming Pao. There is still time. In the next three months, I will work hard on the creation, and I will leave the rest to you!" Create and earn tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

"Don't worry, I have everything, you just create with peace of mind!"

"Ming Pao"'s trick is not unreasonable. Many literati who have only been in contact with martial arts are a little ready to move;

Especially the editors and clerks of those newspapers have started to create, planning to find a part-time job for themselves.

More importantly, it further boosted Ming Pao's reputation!
