I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

Chapter 456 [Set off a boom in the reconstruction of commercial buildings in the central district II

Wu Guangyao pointed to the Lane Crawford commercial building at this time, and said, "The land of this building belongs to Baiyou Group, so let Baiyou Group invest in it, and call it 'Baiyou Building'!"

Fu Hongru said happily: "Great! Our Baiyou Group has its own building!"

A building is a symbol of a company's strength. The large companies on Hong Kong Island in later generations all have their own building; every wealthy family also owns more than one building.

After Lane Crawford Building, the next road is Queen's Road, Changjiang Building (the former site of the old Universal Building) is located on Queen's Road, and Everbright Building is also located on Queen's Road.

Wu Guangyao has been in Hong Kong Island for so many years, and there are only a few properties (5 buildings) across the front of the four central roads. The rest of the buildings are in the hinterland of Central, or in Western District, Wanchai, Causeway Bay and other places.

At present, the Wu family has a total of 28 commercial buildings in Western District, Sheung Wan, Central District, Wan Chai, and Causeway Bay on the island (excluding Kowloon).

Among them, there are 19 commercial buildings in Central, 3 commercial buildings in Western District, 1 commercial building in Sheung Wan, 2 commercial buildings in Wan Chai, and 3 commercial buildings in Causeway Bay.

Among the 19 Central Commercial Buildings, 4 Central Commercial Buildings have been completed (Global Building, Changjiang Building, Everbright Building, Oriental Building), 4 Central Commercial Buildings are under construction (completed around 1970), and there are Two planned commercial buildings in Central (Cheung Kong Building, Baiyou Building);

In other words, there are still 9 old commercial buildings in Central that can be demolished and rebuilt. Among them, five old commercial buildings in Central were purchased in 1958 (at that time, Hong Kong Island’s real estate plummeted due to oversupply), and the remaining four old commercial buildings in Central are purchased in 1967;

It can be seen that the old commercial buildings in Zhonghua are hard to buy at low prices!

A group of people wandered around the central area for a morning with great interest, and found the nearest Lu Yu teahouse at noon, planning to have a meal and then chat.

Lu Yu Teahouse has a history of more than 20 years on Hong Kong Island, and was the main concentration of merchants in the Central District throughout the 1950s and 1960s;

In the public area (lobby) of the teahouse, some merchants do not know each other at first, but they can also get to know each other, and then do business together;

Among them, the more classic ones are Sun Hung Kai's "Three Musketeers" Guo Desheng, Li Zhaoji, and Feng Jingxi, who met and started a business together here;

After the 1970s, Lu Yu Tea House seems to have been built on the site of a building - Lu Yu Building. Lu Yu Tea House is still operating in this building and has become an old sign on Hong Kong Island.

"Wu Sheng, welcome. You haven't been to the tea room for a long time!" Boss Lu of Lu Yu Tea Room saw Wu Guangyao with sharp eyes and greeted him warmly.

"Isn't this just coming here! Arrange a private room for us, and arrange a lobby if you don't have enough!" Wu Guangyao said with a smile. He and Boss Lu have known each other for more than ten years, so they can be regarded as old people.

Boss Lu saw a large group of people behind Wu Guangyao, and immediately said happily: "Hey! They are all Wu Sheng's executives, President Shi, President Fu... Today the tea room is full of splendor, I'll arrange it right away!"

Boss Lu is obviously a know-it-all and knows many of Wu Guangyao's executives.

Under the leadership of Boss Lu, a group of people came to a box;

As for the bodyguards and accompanying staff, they can only eat in the lobby.

After sitting down, Wu Guangyao said in a familiar way: "Boss Lu, big steamed buns with chicken balls, fresh lotus rice with shrimps, cloud-legged dace fillets, go and let the chef cook first, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat them later." You are the best in the tea room!"

Boss Lu smiled and said, "Others may not be able to eat if they come late. If Mr. Wu is here, even if I go to buy the ingredients right away, I have to present them to you."

Boss Lu said so, but he turned around and immediately explained to the restaurant staff in Tang suits that he was obviously going to place an order first!

The three dishes that Wu Guangyao ordered are dishes (dim sum) that many restaurants find troublesome and do not serve;

But the taste is really delicious, it is said to be the three musts of Lu Yu teahouse,

That's right!

After ordering, Boss Lu didn't bother too much, turned around and left the box;

Because he knew that since Wu Guangyao had asked for a private room and didn't order wine for lunch, he naturally had to discuss business, so he didn't want anyone to disturb him too much.

While waiting for the meal, Wu Guangyao said: "It's not a whim to ask everyone to visit Central today, because I can't get along with Jardine Matheson! It's because I want to formulate a ten-year-long 'Central District Reconstruction Plan'. The first phase of the project is Cheung Kong Building, Baiyou Building and Lane Crawford Plaza; the second phase of the project is the reconstruction plan of four old commercial buildings on Stanley Street and Wellington Street; the third phase of the project is the reconstruction plan of the other five old commercial buildings in the Central District .”

After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that the boss's idea was this!

Shi Jun said: "It is conceivable that the reconstruction boom of the commercial buildings in the Central District will be started by the boss, and I am afraid that Hongkong Land will follow behind; in other places, if the emerging real estate companies go public, it will not be a problem to build one or two buildings... ..."

Shi Jun has analyzed the future trend. Eight months have passed this year, and 12 companies have passed the listing process. The total number of listed companies in Hong Kong has reached 75. This shows a problem, more and more Enterprises will choose to go public next!

Wu Guangyao remembers that in his previous life, from 1969 to 1972, the number of listed companies on Hong Kong Island increased by more than 80, from the original number of more than 50 listed companies to more than 130. Real estate five tigers.

Li Xing said: "Actually, there are still many old commercial buildings on Hong Kong Island. As long as the boss is willing, he can participate in the reconstruction of more commercial buildings!"

Everyone echoed, this is indeed a fact, many of the owners of these old commercial buildings are not real estate businessmen;

As long as the old commercial buildings are bought from them at a high price, it is not a problem for Wu Guangyao to own as many commercial buildings in Central as he wants;

There are also some commercial buildings that are some clubs, such as the Hong Kong Club and the Chinese Club. If Wu Guangyao wants to participate in the reconstruction, he can also choose to cooperate in the reconstruction.

Judging from everyone's attitude, everyone obviously knows that there are two reasons why Wu Guangyao can participate in the reconstruction of these old buildings:

First, Wu Guangyao's annual dividends in shipping are as high as billions of Hong Kong dollars. Everyone has more or less predicted it, so the funds are abundant;

Second, Wu Guangyao's executives are obviously very optimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island, and they are unswerving "big friends" of Hong Kong Island real estate.

Therefore, everyone thought that since the boss is rich, and investing in this kind of commercial building can make a profit without losing money, they naturally support the boss to continue to participate in the reconstruction of more commercial buildings in the central area!

Wu Guangyao shook his head, denying everyone's proposal.

Wu Guangyao said: "First of all, I have reserved three buildings (Phase 1, 2 and 3 of Exchange Square) for the bus terminus in the reclamation area of ​​Central;

Secondly, the subway plan for Hong Kong Island is about to be released. There is a high probability that it will pass under Des Voeux Road, so it is very profitable to build development rights on it. If I build a few commercial buildings, my Central District will be considered complete, and I don’t need to compete with others. Food, at least give others a chance!

In the end, even if I have so much money, we don't have so much energy. After all, building a building is an important event. "

The development right on the subway that Wu Guangyao mentioned is the development right of the Central Station and Admiralty Station of the subway that Li Chaoren won the bid in his previous life. The buildings that will be built later include Universal Building and Haifu Center;

It was by virtue of this battle that Li Chaoren defeated the invincible Hongkong Land Company, and then Li Chaoren's Changshi jumped from a medium-sized real estate company to a high-end real estate company on Hong Kong Island.

Everyone thought about it, the benefits of the world cannot be taken by one person, and the boss's funds cannot all be invested in this island.

Li Xing said: "We will talk about the future. Our top priority is to form a complete plan for this ten-year plan; especially the Changshi Building, Baiyou Building, and Lane Crawford Plaza. Once these three buildings are beautifully completed, So it’s really like what the boss said, if the five commercial buildings of Landmark are the “natural heart” of Central District, then we have entered the heart of Landmark.”

In any case, everyone still likes to compare with Landmark. After all, Hongkong is the old "land king" in the central area, while the Yangtze River is the new "land king" in the central area.
