I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

Chapter 483 [Jiangsu and Zhejiang Gang]

In this meeting, Wu Guangyao was basically putting forward various opinions and suggestions, and everyone wrote them down and added them.

Two hours later, Wu Guangyao said with satisfaction: "Okay! It's settled like this. Next, let's look forward to the people of Hong Kong Island entering the carnival!"

Everyone laughed in agreement!

It's only May at this time, and the selection of Miss Hong Kong needs to go through a month of publicity and a month of primary elections, and the most intense finals will be in August.

As a man of great energy, Wu Guangyao is naturally looking forward to the selection of Miss Hong Kong.

Wu Guangyao picked up two gold nuggets and knocked each other. The sound was not crisp, but it was very textured!

"It's quite impressive, Yueru, do you want to give it a try?" Wu Guangyao smiled and said to Lin Yueru beside him.

Lin Yueru curiously picked up two gold nuggets, and just as she received them, her hands sank at the same time, almost falling to the ground!

Seeing Wu Guangyao's playful smile, Lin Yueru knew that she had been fooled!

"Hmph, I'm just not prepared!" Lin Yueru said sophistry.

A gold nugget weighs 5KG, but its size is very small. Although Lin Yueru knew that gold was heavy, she was still fooled!

Forcibly holding on, she tapped lightly with both hands, Lin Yueru quickly put it on the shelf, then put her hand on Wu Guangyao's arm, and began to play tricks!

After arguing for a while, the two realized that there was another person behind them, and it was Lei Hong, the president of China Everbright Bank!

The two turned around, and there was no change in Lei Hong's face, but he said seriously: "Boss! All 200 tons of gold have been put into storage, and a total of 4 warehouses have been occupied! Don't worry about safety, there are a total of three warehouses here. safety door"

Upon hearing this, Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "Well, my safe and the customer's safe have the same security value. This is a matter of the bank's reputation, and there is no room for loss!"

200 tons of gold, in fact, Wu Guangyao is not worried about its safety at all;

Of course, the underground vault of Everbright Bank itself is also very safe!

For the 200 tons of gold, Wu Guangyao spent about 280 million US dollars, because the price of gold in the free market is 10% to 20% higher than the official price;

Therefore, although the official price of gold at this time is still $35 per ounce (28.35 grams per ounce, $1.24 per gram), the free market price generally ranges from $1.35 per gram to $1.48 per gram.

Similarly, Wu Guangyao deposited a total of 400 tons of gold in several banks in the UK and Switzerland, at a cost of US$570 million, nearly 20% higher than the official cost price.

Gold is bought in the hands of gold merchants in the free market, and the banks in the UK and Switzerland are responsible for intermediary purchases;

If Wu Guangyao makes a move,

Naturally, it is also shot in the free market;

Going back and forth, Wu Guangyao is confident that in more than ten years, he will make about 30 times the profit, which is more than 26 billion US dollars.

Why is it about 30 times the profit? Wu Guangyao also planned to do a wave of selling at high points and taking back at low points halfway.

Wu Guangyao remembered that gold spot had three nodes in the 1970s. As long as he grasped these three nodes well, he could make a lot of profits.

The first node was in August 1971 (this year), after losing a large amount of gold reserves, the U.S. government announced its withdrawal from the Bretton Woods system and announced the decoupling of the U.S. dollar from gold; The price of free gold was priced, and then the price of gold rose rapidly; until 1975, the price of gold had climbed from $35 per ounce at the beginning to $200 per ounce.

In the second node, between 1975 and 1976, the high inflation rate triggered severe economic recession in the United States and other countries. High unemployment and bankruptcies were the most prominent world economic scenes at that time. In order to calm the market's speculative demand for gold, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced the auction of part of its gold reserves. The International Monetary Fund also made the same move and required member countries to use "special drawing rights" as a unit of account to replace the gold previously used. When US and IMF gold entered the market for sale, the gold market price hit a low of $102/oz.

At the third node, the price of gold rebounded sharply in 1977. At this time, inflation became the focus of countries around the world again. Soon, the price of gold surpassed the previous peak of 200 US dollars per ounce in 1978. In 1979, buyers appeared in the gold market. It is so powerful that no matter how much gold anyone sells, they will eat as much gold. Under the pressure of strong market purchasing power, the United States and the International Monetary Fund were forced to compress the original gold auction plan, and soon completely abandoned the plan. In January 1980, after the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, the price of gold was pushed to an all-time high: $852 per ounce.

To sum it up, $35 to $200, then to $110, and finally to $850;

Leaving aside the loss in the middle, the profit of thirty times is still more than enough!

Moreover, gold spot is not gold futures, which can be easily manipulated by others, so this business is very stable!

Villa at No. 32 Barker Road.

Wu Guangyao was lying on a bamboo recliner, with Central, Victoria Harbor and Tsim Sha Tsui in Kowloon all in sight, and he had a kind of artistic conception of "being at the top of the mountain and looking at the small mountains";

At the same time, there is also a kind of domineering, bursting out from the depths of the heart, "I come, I build, I conquer!" ’ sense of honor.

Just when Wu Guangyao felt the artistic conception of heaven and earth, several black cars were driving on the mountain road of Baijia Road, driving towards Villa No. 32;

When these vehicles came to the gate, the waiting bodyguards opened the gate and guided the vehicles to the parking place.

Wu Guangyao on the viewing platform of the podium of the villa naturally heard the movement, got up slowly, and walked downstairs.

When he came to the lawn under the podium, Wu Guangyao saw Bao Yugang and Zhao Congyan coming hand in hand, and said happily, "Could it be that you two friends came by appointment?"

Zhao Congyan, who was wearing thick glasses, waved his hands and said, "We happened to meet each other on the road, so we came together!"

Bao Yugang looked behind Wu Guangyao and said, "Hey, are Lao Dong and Xiao Cao here?"

Wu Guangyao looked at his watch and said, "I haven't come yet, but it should be soon! Let's go, I'll show you around here!"

Bao Yugang and Zhao Congyan regained their spirits immediately. It's not that they can't afford the Baijiadao villa, but that they don't have the guts to buy it, or they don't want to buy the villa here. Trouble!

After all, besides Wu Guangyao, a high-ranking British official and businessman who lived in Baijiadao at this time, there is no one living here yet!

"It's not easy to have such a large lawn on this mountain!" Zhao Congyan sighed first.

"It's really not easy, it's my luck!" Wu Guangyao said modestly.

The two didn't take it seriously, but they both knew that when Wu Guangyao proposed to live in Baijiadao, the Hong Kong government promised to let Wu Guangyao choose the land himself, so it was not because of luck, but because of his strength.

In the amazement of the two, Wu Guangyao finally brought them to the viewing platform.

The two were immediately attracted by the distant scenery, and were amazed again and again;

"The view is so good! Standing here every day, watching the ever-changing Hong Kong Island, what a wonderful thing!" Zhao Congyan sighed.

"That's right, your scenery is really unique, good Fengshui! If I skip rope here, I will definitely be able to jump 50 more than usual." Bao Yugang also praised.

Bao Yugang likes to skip rope wherever he goes, so at this moment, he couldn't help mentioning it;

In addition to skipping rope, Bao Yugang also likes winter swimming, and Wu Guangyao is a winter swimming partner!

Wu Guangyao said modestly: "It's not bad, actually I don't live here often! I always think, I live here often, will the ghosts here scold me every day!"

"Haha! No, the British also speak based on their strength. You have completely conquered them recently!" Zhao Congyan sighed. How can an important company with British capital not be admired by the Chinese on Hong Kong Island.

While the three were talking, Dong Haoyun and Cao Wenjin also came. After greeting each other, they sat on the viewing platform and chatted.

There is a saying in Hong Kong Island that the "Jiangsu Gang" and the "Yang Gang" are in charge of shipping in Hong Kong Island. Even the old Hong Kong ship king Xu Aizhou was chased ashore by the "Jiangsu Gang".

In fact, there is another layer of meaning in this, that is, people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have a sense of belonging to Hong Kong, which came very slowly; Guangyao);

Guangdong people have a natural closeness to Hong Kong Island and are very attached to Hong Kong Island, so they invest in the real estate industry, so the vast majority of real estate tycoons are from Guangdong Province;

Many capitalists from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai laughed at themselves: "We have worked hard all our lives, only to find out in the end that we are working for real estate developers!"

While the five were chatting and laughing, the servants brought cakes, snacks, and tea sets one after another;

Wu Guangyao personally brewed a cup of tea for everyone, enjoying the scenery, drinking tea, and having refreshments, which was very interesting.

"Guangyao, when do you think the Suez Canal will open?" Cao Wenjin asked.

Everyone looked at Wu Guangyao one after another. Wu Guangyao was the youngest among this group of people, but he was indeed the person everyone admired the most!

"When will it open? I really can't figure it out. Brother Cao, you are embarrassing me!" Wu Guangyao touched his nose, pretending to be helpless.

"Haha! Wenjin, you are a strong man, and Guangyao is not a god!" Zhao Congyan joked.

After some teasing, Wu Guangyao said seriously: "Shipping is indeed a profitable industry, but the risks are also huge. Everyone pay more attention to asset diversification to resist risks!"

Seeing Wu Guangyao's seriousness, everyone fell into deep thought!

When others say this, everyone may say that they are worrying unfoundedly. After all, with the outbreak of the industrial age, there is no reason to worry about shipping!

"My son likes to invest in real estate, and I scolded him a lot!" Zhao Congyan said, hoping that Wu Guangyao would give him some advice.

Wu Guangyao did not hide his secrets, and said: "The real estate on Hong Kong Island is a high-quality industry. Although it will plummet due to various influences after a period of time, overall, it will rise and it is a long-term stable investment project; especially It’s real estate plummeting, everyone must remember to buy the bottom, this is the smartest idea! You see, during the June 7 incident, several real estate developers in Guangdong Province bought a lot of bottoms, and now they are making a lot of money.”

Bao Yugang said: "After six or seven years, we will make a lot of money, and we will not lose to the people of Guangdong Province!"

Everyone agrees with Bao Yugang's words!

From the current point of view, the shipping in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai and the real estate in Guangdong Province can be said to be evenly matched, and even far ahead;

After all, there is Wu Guangyao, the world's shipping king, in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai!

Wu Guangyao said: "No matter what you say, if you have the strength, you can diversify your investment, and don't put all your money on shipping. Recently I have a project to make a fortune. You can decide whether to participate or not!"

"What project?"

They said it almost at the same time, which shows how everyone described Wu Guangyao's business ability.

"Gold spot! I recently analyzed it. The United States is about to be overwhelmed. I am afraid that the Bretton Woods system will be dismantled. At that time, gold will grow like a wild horse that has been decoupled."

At this time, Hong Kong has canceled the gold and silver control, and it is convenient to buy gold. If these people are willing to invest, it is also very easy;

Of course, Wu Guangyao is just a suggestion!

Although Wu Guangyao has always been a faction of his own, he still has a sense of belonging to the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Gang, especially the members of Shipping, who have a very good relationship!

Then you can take it to get rich, you can also consider it, it depends on whether you believe it or not!
