I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

When Wu Guangyao's motorcade came to Hutchison Building, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly, his smile was beyond words;

Because I am in the heart of Central, I have gained the second building chain.

With Ice House Street as the dividing line between the north and the south, the Wu family owns two building chains, east and west, in the heart of Central;

The First Building Chain (West): It consists of six buildings located on Queen's Road, Des Voeux Road and Connaught Road, Everbright Building, China Building, Changjiang Building in Queen's Road Central, Lane Crawford Building on Des Voeux Road, Connaught Universal Building and Cheung Kong Building in Dao;

The existing six buildings are not the ultimate form of the first building chain. There is also a high-altitude development right on the Central Station of the subway (not yet tendered), and the future three buildings of the Exchange Square (not yet tendered);

After these ten buildings are all in the bag, it will be the first building chain in the heart of Central.

The second building chain (east): the building chain to the east of Xuechang Street is a building chain that has been connected together unconsciously in recent years;

First of all, the Hilton Hotel acquired by Hutchison Whampoa (U.S.-owned company Yonggao), the location of the Hilton Hotel is very mysterious, because it is sandwiched between the HSBC Building and the Bank of China Building in the previous life, which is the headquarters of Cheung Kong Industrial in the previous life Mansion (Li Chaoren's lair);

The second is the Hutchison Building (Hacourt Road), which is located in the north of the Bank of China Building (right in front of the sea). The Hutchison Building was put into use in 1975 and has 22 floors. It is excellent, but the height is only 22 floors, while the Bank of China Tower has 70 floors, so from the view of Victoria Harbour, Hutchison Tower looks like a dwarf.

Finally, Cheung Kong Holdings owns 48% of the Hong Kong Club Building, which is located obliquely in front of HSBC.

The second building chain in the heart of Central has only three buildings at present, and it is not the final form either;

If the high-altitude development rights above the Admiralty Station of the subway do not participate in the bidding (give it to the five tigers of Huazi, and vote for the Central Station.)

Then Wu Guangyao will definitely be able to obtain the second section of Admiralty Station as the savior;

It turned out that Admiralty Section 2 was originally bid by a consortium composed of Zheng Yutong (New Development Real Estate), Chen Zengxi (Hang Lung Properties), Liao Chongxing, etc., but the land premium was 1.8 billion Hong Kong dollars; Procrastinating and procrastinating, it just dragged on to the Sino-British negotiations;

During the Sino-British negotiations, the prefecture and stock markets on Hong Kong Island experienced such a large drop, which is very rare (the drop was larger than that in 1967);

As a result, the bank refused to lend money.

On the one hand, the government refuses to lower the price (subsidize the land price), and a business of "earning Geng" (earning a certain amount) is simply messed up;

The new consortium could not afford the money, so the Hong Kong government had to take it back. After the Sino-British negotiations ended, it was acquired by a consortium composed of Japanese capital, Nanyang, and Xinhe;

The two buildings of Benda Center (renamed Lippo Center in the 21st century), which are well-known in later generations, are part of the rights and interests of this lot.

Some people say that Chen Zengxi, Zheng Yutong and others "caught the deer but didn't know how to get rid of its horns", and this consortium was probably the only one who gave up after winning the bid.

And Wu Guangyao had already figured it out, it would be better to take over the bid from a few people by himself than to return it to the Hong Kong government!

Based on such calculations, the Wu family's second building chain in the heart of Central has at least five Grade A office buildings;

They are the Hilton Hotel (former Cheung Kong Industrial Headquarters), Hutchison Building, Hong Kong Council Building, and the two buildings in Admiralty Section 2 (the former Benda Center two buildings);

Among the five buildings, the Hong Kong Council Building is currently under construction and will be a 41-story building after completion;

Although Cheung Kong only has a 48% stake, Hong Kong will be a loose organization, and the building will still be managed by Cheung Kong.

As for the Hilton Hotel and the Hutchison Building, if they are rebuilt, they will have to talk about the famous "Feng Shui War" in Hong Kong in the previous life;

The protagonists of this Hong Kong feng shui battle in the previous life were: Bank of China Building, HSBC Building, and Cheung Kong Industrial Building (Li Chaoren’s lair)

Among the three protagonists, HSBC Bank was the first to take root in Central, and carefully created a group of powerful Feng Shui bureaus by using auspicious lions, hollow lobby, etc., and the company has achieved stable development for many years;

In 1978, HSBC pushed the HSBC Building into reconstruction, and the fourth-generation HSBC Building was completed in 1985, which is the oil drilling platform building;

But with the arrival of the "spoiler" Bank of China Tower, HSBC couldn't laugh anymore.

In 1982, Bank of China invited I.M. Pei, a top Chinese architect, to design and build the Bank of China Tower.

From the appearance, the architectural style of the Bank of China Building is unique. It is composed of several huge triangles. From a distance, it looks like a sharp sword with three blades rising from the ground. The blades pointed at the camp of the British Garrison, the Governor's House and HSBC respectively.

The barracks are fine, but it is rumored that after the completion of the Bank of China Building, at the point where the knife pointed, the then Hong Kong governor Youde died of a heart attack (the only one who died in office), and the next two Hong Kong governors were also in poor health;

On the other hand, HSBC's performance suddenly declined, and the stock price plummeted accordingly, and its headquarters as far away as the UK were greatly affected.

As a result, HSBC, facing the blade of the Bank of China Building, is not calm.

In the second year, two huge steel cannons were erected on the roof of the HSBC Building, taking the meaning of "fire conquering gold" in the five elements, to deal with the blade of the Bank of China Building;

What is amazing is that the stock price of HSBC has stabilized and its performance has continued to rise.

In the late 1990s, the Cheung Kong Group Center was located between the Bank of China Tower and the HSBC Bank. Finally, under the advice of a Feng Shui master, a shield-like building was built on all sides. The appearance is airtight like a fortress, and the height is also cleverly Avoiding the relative position of the "knife and gun", and using full bulletproof glass, it can be said to be careful, but fortunately it has been safe and sound after completion.

In this life, it's Wu Guangyao's turn to break the game!

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless there is one male and one female.

Everyone is rich and powerful, gathering in the small area of ​​Central Hong Kong, naturally there will be some fighting between dragons and tigers.

The Hilton Hotel is sandwiched between the HSBC Bank and the Bank of China Building. If it is not rebuilt with a good look at Feng Shui, it may have some impact on the Wu family (worry), although it is only a property of Hutchison Matheson!

At the same time, in the era of Qi Dezun, the Hutchison Building was only planned to have 22 floors, which was a waste of good land (in front of the Bank of China);

So in the 1990s or early 21st century, it must be pushed to reconstruction;

The Feng Shui reconstruction of the two buildings is closely related to the Bank of China Building!

The Bank of China Tower is 70 stories high, and the HSBC Bank is 46 stories high. So how many floors should the Hilton Hotel be rebuilt?

In the previous life, the Yangtze River Center headquarters building was 60 stories high, and Li Chaoren dared not surpass the Bank of China Building;

So Wu Guangyao dare?

Sure dare!

Even if the reconstruction of the Hilton Hotel is not higher than 70 floors, then the reconstruction of Hutchison Building must be higher than 70 floors;

Of the two buildings, one must be taller than the Bank of China Building!

It is related to the feng shui of the Wu family, so we can only do our part!
