I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

In mid-July, the grand opening of the New World Center in Tsim Sha Tsui;

The sailing hotel also opened on the same day, and for this reason, political and business celebrities from all over the world came to see it;

Politicians include the new Prime Minister, the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, the Governor of Hong Kong...  

Princess Margaret of the British royal family also came to Hong Kong from London to attend the opening ceremony of the sailing hotel;

Four to five hundred people from the world's wealthy businessmen, Hollywood stars, architectural designers, journalists from various countries, etc. came;

These people were invited by Wu Guangyao, and they also wanted to witness the style of the sailing hotel.

The layout style of the New World Center in the previous life is completely different. Because of the need to highlight the sailing hotel, the New World Center, which could have built two hotels, only chose to build a sailing hotel.

The direction of the hotel is also different. The Regent Hotel was built on the same location in the previous life, and the Regent Hotel spans east and west;

The Burj Al Arab chose a north-south vertical orientation, with the front of the hotel facing Victoria Harbour, and the public area facing east.

The sailing hotel has a disadvantage, that is, it is only 20 stories high, and because it needs to build a larger area, it is a little fat;

Although subject to height restrictions, Wu Guangyao knew that in the 1990s, tall buildings could be built in Tsim Sha Tsui;

For example, the Guili Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui in the previous life was 60 stories high!

Therefore, in the 1990s, Goh Kuan Yew would rebuild the sailing hotel in New World Center and demolish three residential buildings to rebuild a hotel;

At that time, two hotels with more than 50 floors will be erected on both sides of the New World Center;

At that time, the sailing hotel will be built into a sailing hotel with a height of more than 300 meters, without any shortcomings, and more luxurious than the sailing hotel in the previous life!

In short, the appearance of the Burj Al Arab has become a patented product of the management of Shining Star Hotel, and no fool would spend billions to build an imported product.

On the grass on the east side of the hotel, a sailing hotel opening ceremony was held;

Wu Guangyao walked to the podium in high spirits and made a speech:

“Welcome all distinguished guests to the opening ceremony of Burj Al Arab Hotel and New World Center. …

At a time when economies around the world are being challenged, the Burj Al Arab opens...  

I hope that the Burj Al Arab can bring good luck to people all over the world, and wish countries all over the world to get out of the economic downturn.....

Riding the wind and breaking the waves will sometimes hang the clouds and sail straight to the sea;

This is the Sailing Hotel!

This is a good omen!

thank you all! "

Wu Guangyao's words were full of blessings, which immediately aroused warm welcome from the guests under the presidium!

Then, several heavyweight guests came to the stage to give speeches!

Wu Guangyao's ability to invite important political figures such as the new prime minister, the Japanese cabinet ministers, and the Saudi crown prince to visit Hong Kong shows the influence of Wu Guangyao.

After the opening ceremony, Wu Guangyao invited everyone into the Burj Al Arab for a luncheon.

There are only 108 rooms in the entire sailing hotel. At first glance, it will make people think that this is a medium hotel;

In fact, although the Burj Al Arab has only 108 rooms, all of these 108 rooms are suites, and the smallest suite is 72 square meters;

The largest suite, the five presidential suites, each has a full 150 square meters.

And these 108 suites are divided into five styles, Chinese style, Japanese style, Middle Eastern style, European style, American style;

Let guests have a variety of choices and experiences.

The consumption of the Burj Al Arab is surprisingly high. The price of a 72-square-meter suite is almost 1,200 Hong Kong dollars a night;

At this time, the per capita salary in Hong Kong is only about 1,200 Hong Kong dollars!

The price of a 150-square-meter presidential suite is as high as 15,000 Hong Kong dollars a night;

Even Wu Guangyao was almost shocked when he heard this price!

But Charles, the CEO of Shining Star Hotel, doesn’t think it’s expensive at all.

It is believed that the presidential suite does not need to be full every day, what is needed is a gimmick;

Moreover, they have to provide suite services for important people coming to Hong Kong;

What's more, Wu Guangyao directly asked for a suite as his occasional lodging, and he didn't rent it out.

Wu Guangyao led hundreds of guests to the front of the hotel. The fountain in the pool seemed to sense it, and immediately began to spray water;

At the same time, a burst of light music was introduced into everyone's ears;

Everyone listened to the music and looked at the fountains on both sides of the hotel avenue, and they were amazed!

"This is a sensor device designed by Lenovo Electronics for the hotel. As long as guests come to the Burj Al Arab, they will receive our warmest welcome!" Wu Guangyao explained to Princess Marge, the new Prime Minister and others beside him.

Japanese Economy Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone said with a smile: "Lenovo Group is the pride of our Japanese companies!"

Yasuhiro Nakasone said that there is no problem with this sentence. Whether it is in terms of shares, or in terms of management and R\u0026D teams, the Japanese occupy a lot of power in Lenovo Group;

What's more, Lenovo Group itself was an alliance company composed of dozens of Japanese companies from the beginning!

However, when Yasuhiro Nakasone said this in this scene, he naturally had other meanings!

Yasuhiro Nakasone has a brilliant political career, even though he is just a cabinet minister now;

But in the 1980s, Yasuhiro Nakasone served as prime minister for three full terms, making him the third-longest serving prime minister in Japanese history.

Wu Guangyao responded with a smile: "The rise of Lenovo Group from Japan to become a multinational company is inseparable from the support of all parties in Japan!"

There is also something in the words, without losing politeness, and it can be said that Lenovo Group has become a world company.

This is just an episode. Wu Guangyao and Nakasone Yasuhiro have a good relationship, so naturally they won't compete with each other.

At this time, MacLehose watched Wu Guangyao talking and laughing with top politicians, feeling a little uncomfortable;

The governor of the colony, according to common sense, is equivalent to the existence of the queen;

But now, Wu Guangyao's momentum is obviously not weaker than that of the governor!

In particular, when MacLehose saw the expression of Margaret next to Wu Guangyao, he felt even more insulted;

It turned out that the relationship between Margaret and Wu Guangyao was very good, and Margaret's reputation in the past few years was not very good, so MacLehose was worried that the two of them had a super-friendship.

Soon, MacLehose dismissed the thoughts in his head, why worry about the royal family!

In the past few years, Princess Margaret has often been in and out of various private receptions, smoking big cigars, acting dissolutely, and even getting naked on the beach. The whole UK knows it;

It's not likely that people from the royal family and the parliament will take care of it, so why worry about it as a governor!

A group of people, talking and laughing, walked towards the hotel gate!

At the door, the welcoming lady was extremely beautiful, even Wu Guangyao was a little bit moved;

These welcome ladies include Europeans, Americans and Asians, but what is certain is that being able to speak English is a basic skill.

Walking into the lobby of the hotel, everyone's first impression is 'too luxurious! '

The most eye-catching thing is the "Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow" in the center of the hall. The golden horse imitates the Eastern Han Dynasty bronze "Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow" that appeared in the Mainland a few years ago;

At that time, "Horse Stepping on Flying Swallow" caused a huge sensation at home and abroad!

Wu Guangyao naturally wanted to explain this scene: "This is a golden steed weighing one ton, and the shape of the steed is an imitation of the famous cultural relic of the Eastern Han Dynasty in China and abroad a few years ago, 'Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow'."

Listening to what Wu Guangyao said, several prominent figures gathered in front of the golden horse one after another, and began to observe;

At this time, Wu Guangyao and the others walked slowly, and some guests behind could only wait in an orderly manner;

After all, the organizers are maintaining security and order!

Wu Guangyao then pointed to the paintings on the wall of the hall, and said: "Everyone, the famous paintings in this hall are all authentic works, you can take a look at them; of course, the writers of these famous paintings are not first-class painters; this is not because our hotel There are no famous paintings by Van Gogh, Picasso, Qi Baishi, etc., but to ensure that human treasures are not at risk, we chose to place their paintings in the presidential suite."

Not only did everyone not feel that the class of the sailing hotel was low, but they felt that the class was too high!

That is the world's top famous painting, actually displayed in the hotel?

In fact, the famous paintings of the presidential suite are not the top masterpieces of these painters, but a few paintings that are "not very valuable";

Even in the 21st century, the value will not exceed 10 million Hong Kong dollars!

Moreover, these famous paintings have been processed by professionals, and they are well preserved just like the exhibits in museums.

After participating in the exhibition, everyone passed the stairs and walked to the banquet hall on the third floor;

If you don't take the elevator, it is naturally because of the large number of people, and there will be safety issues;

In addition, the banquet hall is only on the third floor!

Moreover, a total of 500 guests came this time, in order to let everyone not be disappointed;

The sailing hotel can only allow four to five people to live in one suite;

No way, there are only 108 suites in total!

Of course, a real VIP can still guarantee the supply of a suite!

There are many restaurants in the hotel, the most luxurious one is the top-floor space restaurant, which can accommodate 100 people for meals;

And the dining hall on the third floor is obviously luxurious enough;

Since it is a sailing hotel, of course there are ubiquitous themes related to 'sea';

The giant aquarium has all kinds of marine life immediately, which makes people feel like being on the bottom of the sea while eating.

After the luncheon, the hotel allocated rooms and key cards for everyone. In the afternoon, everyone was free to move around and visit the New World Center to their heart's content!

 …

Since the Burj Al Arab invited journalists from various countries to visit the opening ceremony and experience the accommodation;

The sailing hotel became famous all over the world immediately, resounding all over the world!

"Sydney Opera House is the landmark of Australia, the Eiffel Tower is the landmark of France, and the landmark of Hong Kong is the 'Sailing Hotel'"

"I can't find any language to describe it. I can only rate it with 7 stars to show its difference."

Waiting for the remarks, spread from the European and American media, let Wu Guangyao feel that this hospitality is worth it!

The most powerful thing is Princess Margaret's remarks 'I'm in love with him....yes, I'm in love with the Burj Al Arab! '

The support of various speeches immediately made the sailing hotel synonymous with the most luxurious hotel;

Even some people in the world who don't know Hong Kong know Hong Kong because of the Burj Al Arab!

Hutchison Headquarters

Wu Guangyao listened to Wei Li's report on the recent situation, and nodded from time to time to express his affirmation to Wei Li.

If Wei Li put away his ambition, Wu Guangyao would really be willing to let him stay in Heji Yangxing for a few more years;

Of course, Wu Guangyao was not the Li Chaoren from his previous life. At that time, Li Chaoren had no deterrent effect on Wei Li, so Wei Li was not willing to surrender;

Wu Guangyao was different. In terms of strength and ability, he was far superior to Li Chaoren in his previous life. How could he not be able to suppress a high-level beater.

"Currently, we have purchased 150 million Hong Kong dollars in gold for investment!"

"What is the average cost?"

"$145.2 an ounce!"

"Well, that's a pretty good result! That's the end of this matter, we just have to wait. When it's time to sell it, I'll give you the answer!"

"Yes, boss!"

Wu Guangyao asked again: "How is the acquisition of Yonggao Company going?"

Wei Li shook his head and said, "Winggao Company's asking price is too high. The minimum price is only 135 million Hong Kong dollars, which is more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars higher than our expectation."

Wu Guangyao pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's leave it alone, and remind them from time to time, as long as we have the intention to buy!"

Wingo Corporation is an American-funded company that owns the Hilton Hotel in Central and the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Bali, Indonesia;

When the oil crisis came, these two companies were the first to bear the brunt, especially the Hyatt Hotel in Bali, Indonesia, which suffered losses;

Coupled with the economic problems in the United States, Wu Guangyao is not afraid that he will never sell;

Therefore, don't rush to close the deal immediately, anyway, the oil crisis will last for several years!

"Yes! The major shareholder of Yonggao Company is a medium-sized industrial company in the United States. It is a company that has been affected by the oil crisis; I can see that they intend to sell; at most one year, I can get it for no more than 120 million Hong Kong dollars. Next." Wei Li was afraid that Wu Guangyao would feel that he was incapable of doing things well, so he issued a military order.

Wu Guangyao nodded in praise.

After discussing the two old matters, Wu Guangyao decided to add another business to Hutchison \u0026 Co.

"I intend to enter the telecommunications industry through Hutchison \u0026 Co., and your management will write me a report soon!"

Wei Li's spirit was shaken, and his expression of preparation appeared from time to time.

"Boss, it just so happens that I happen to know that the only pager company on Hong Kong Island, 'Apollo', intends to sell it!"

Wu Guangyao's spirit was shaken, he didn't expect someone to give him a pillow when he fell asleep;

Compared with starting from scratch, Wu Guangyao is still keen to acquire experienced companies.

At this time, the pager industry on Hong Kong Island was still in its infancy, and it happened to be the right time and place to start with Hutchison;

In fact, the paging service in Hong Kong had been launched in the late 1960s;

In August 1969, an American reporter stationed in Hong Kong opened Republic Company, applied for a paging card from the Hong Kong Government Post Office, and installed a transmitter in Happy Valley to provide paging services;

However, the Republic company was established for half a year, and it hastily announced its end;

A new thing is not so easy to accept.

The second paging company on Hong Kong Island, the 'Apollo' company, was established in 1970;

This year, Apollo, which has been established for four years, intends to sell the company again, apparently because of difficulties in operation.

Wu Guangyao said: "Then you go and win it as soon as possible! Since this Apollo company intends to sell it, it must be improperly managed and did not attract enough business. After you win this company, formulate a sales strategy, and then sell it to everyone." Institutions and government departments are listed as the main marketing targets because they all have this demand."

Entering the pager in the mid-1970s and entering the field of mobile phones in the early 1980s was a plan of Wu Guangyao;

And when the time is ripe, Wu Guangyao will launch the acquisition of Hong Kong Telecom through Hutchison Telecom;

At that time, Wu Guangyao once again monopolized the telecommunications business in Hong Kong;

Well, Hong Kong citizens cannot do without the Wu family in every aspect!
