The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

Chapter 382 Rejecting Shen Bi Again (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

When everyone is paying attention to this matter, they ignore that the time has already entered May!

Now many people in Xiangjiang are paying attention to "True Pao". It has been a week since Chu Huan won the land in East Tsim Sha Tsui at the auction, but there has been no news from Hang Lung Properties.

There is only a rumor that a special team has been set up in Hang Lung Properties to take charge of this project.

Although many people know that for such a huge investment, it must take a long time to do the early stage, but this matter cannot stand to attract the attention of the whole of Hong Kong.

Since there has been no news from Hang Lung Properties, gossips have been flying all over the sky, but the most important news is that Chu Huan has encountered a cash crisis!

It's not that Chu Huan is short of money personally, but that this project is too big, and Hang Lung Properties simply doesn't have enough funds to start this project.

Some newspapers even published their own investigations!

"When Hang Lung Properties was acquired by Chu Huan, it owned the luxury building Hengbai Garden at No. 1 Lytton Road in the Mid-Levels of Hong Kong Island, Hengjing Court and Hengying Building on Yunjing Road in North Point, etc., and another 8 have been completed. Properties are being collected for rent, including Hang Lung Center in Causeway Bay, Park Yu Commercial Center in Kowloon, Po Shing Building on Nanwan Road, Hong Kong Island, Shaw Building in Mong Kok, Kowloon, and Golden Gate Building in Central District, etc.

This year, Hang Lung Properties has developed a number of properties such as Lychee Garden with 600 construction units.

According to the current rent of commercial buildings in Xiangjiang and the forecast of land prices, the profit of Hang Lung Properties last year should be around 59 million Hong Kong dollars.

Although this profit is much better than that of other real estate companies in Hong Kong, it is not enough to support the development of Hang Lung Properties in Tsim Sha Tsui East.

Unless Chu Huan took the profits of his other companies to Hang Lung Properties.

But this is clearly unrealistic.

Prior to this, countless media colleagues had speculated that Chu Huan's net worth exceeded 10 billion, but this net worth obviously included various real estate properties, not that Chu Huan had tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars in cash at his disposal.

In addition, please don’t forget that at the beginning of this year, Chu Huan acquired the land at No. 12 Mount Kellett Road with more than 100 million in cash. Now the construction of this land has started, and the preliminary estimate of the construction cost is at least 200 million Hong Kong dollars. !

At the same time, Chu Huan also acquired a large amount of TVB shares in April and formed his own media group.

Later, Chu Huan bought the land in East Tsim Sha Tsui at a price of nearly 500 million Hong Kong dollars. The expenditure on these projects alone was already close to 900 million Hong Kong dollars. Within a short period of time, provide Chu Huan with one billion Hong Kong dollars in cash.

If this is the case, Chu Huan's net worth will not be tens of billions, but at least 20 billions!

So no matter how you look at it, Chu Huan may have encountered the most difficult cash flow difficulty in his business career in the development of the land in East Tsim Sha Tsui! "

An eloquent news report instantly became the focus of discussion in Xiangjiang again.

Whether or not Chu Huan still has cash in his hands has become the hottest topic in Xiangjiang!

Of course, more importantly, no one thought that Chu Huan would have spent nearly 900 million Hong Kong dollars this year!

Paying back the money is like running water!

While discussing whether Chu Huan still has cash in his hands, countless people are also envious of Chu Huan's consumption.

How rich one must be to be able to spend nearly one billion Hong Kong dollars in less than half a year!

Soon other newspapers and magazines followed up on this matter.

Naturally, this kind of discussion intensified!

Chu Huan, who was at the center of the discussion, was not in a good mood at the moment.

However, Chu Huan was in a bad mood, not because of those reports, but because some people who didn't know the sky and the earth had come to Hang Lung Real Estate during this period.

Zhenhua Real Estate!

The boss is called Liao Zhenhua.

A real estate company that Chu Huan has never heard of. Their bosses wear gold and silver, not like the bosses of Xiangjiang Real Estate Company, but like the bosses of later generations of urban real estate companies.

I'm afraid that others don't know that I have money!

It was the boss of such a real estate company who found Chu Huan today.

"Mr. Chu, I heard that your company has encountered some cash difficulties recently. Everyone is in the real estate industry. I can't see Mr. Chu's business problems, so Mr. Chu, why don't you give a discount per square foot?" Sell ​​the land at No. 64 Mody Road to Zhenhua Real Estate for HK$100!"

Seeing the other party's triumphant look, Chu Huan turned to look at Xu Yi, who lowered his head in Chu Huan's eyes.

"Could it be that you were dumped recently? Your brain size has obviously shrunk. How did you bring such a person in for me?"

Xu Yi muttered softly: "He wasn't like this just now!"

"Hey, what are you doing, Chu Huan? I'm here to help you now. Let me tell you, after passing this village, there will be no such shop!"

Liao Zhenhua looked dissatisfied as Chu Huan and Xu Yi muttered quietly.

Chu Huan ignored him, but said to Xu Yi: "Let Qin Peng come in, and get this person away quickly, or I will get you away in a while!"

Xu Yi didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly called Qin Peng in, and then drove out that Liao Zhenhua who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth.

"Well, boss, haven't you always thought about hoarding land in the New Territories? This man is a landowner in the New Territories. I thought you could buy some land from him!"

After Qin Peng drove out the dissatisfied Liao Zhenhua, Xu Yi stood opposite Chu Huan and preached carefully.

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Only this once!"

"Understood, thank you boss!" Seeing that Chu Huan did not punish him, Xu Yi immediately said happily.

Chu Huan shook his head with a wry smile.

However, from Liao Zhenhua's incident, it can be seen that the mainstream voice in Xiangjiang's business community is still that Chu Huan is in a cash crisis.

I didn't expect that I just didn't want to be too high-profile, and I would attract so many monsters and monsters.

"When will Cao Yunzu's drawings come out?"

Chu Huan asked Xu Yi.

No matter what the people outside were arguing about, Chu Huan was carrying out his work step by step.

During this week, Chu Huan met Li Jiacheng. Although Li Jiacheng said very sincerely, Chu Huan still did not agree with Li Jiacheng's joining, not to mention Li Jiacheng, even former partners like Guo Desheng and Zheng Yutong. Ready to play this project with them.

Later, Chu Huan met with Cao Wenjin, Cao Yunzu, and Guo Henian again. As Chu Huan expected, Guo Henian also wanted to develop the land together with Chu Huan, but Guo Henian's request was relatively simple. He won the No. 64 land, where he wants to build a large hotel as a base for his development in Xiangjiang!

Chu Huan, who did not agree with Li Jiacheng and did not intend to bring Guo Desheng and Zheng Yutong to play together, chose to cooperate with Guo Henian this time.

There is no other reason, Guo Henian did help Chu Huan back then!

However, Chu Huan did not sell land No. 64 to Guo Henian, but the two parties jointly developed the land. Hang Lung Properties invested in the land and cash, accounting for 40% of the new hotel's shares, while Guo Henian's party bought the land in the form of land and cash. The way of cash shares, accounting for 60% of the shares of the new hotel.

At the same time, the architectural style of this hotel must be consistent with the architectural style of the entire land, which means that the design right is not on Guo Henian's side!

Although the conditions were somewhat harsh, Guo Henian finally agreed to Chu Huan's request.

With this cooperation, Chu Huan can be regarded as returning the favor to Guo Henian!

Later, Chu Huan discussed with Cao Yunzu that Cao Yunzu's design company would be responsible for the design of the commercial center on the entire land.

The reason why Chu Huan bought the entire land was to make it the top business circle in Xiangjiang.

Rather than being the same as letters and real estate in another time and space.

In another time and space, Xinhe Real Estate has built this site into a business circle with different styles because of financial pressure. At the same time, in order to alleviate its own financial pressure, it has sold a lot of properties.

But Chu Huan will not, Chu Huan wants to build this place into the top business circle in Xiangjiang, and even in Asia.

Of course, for the design work, Cao Yunzu must still ask his teacher Pei Yuming to come forward.

In the past few years, Pei Yuming has almost become Chu Huan's exclusive designer!

This is the specific reason why Hang Lung Properties has not disclosed the progress of this project. I haven't even prepared the design drawings. What do you want me to announce?

As a result, such behavior caused the outside world to think that Chu Huan was short of cash.

It takes at least three months to half a year to design a blueprint. Chu Huan really doesn't have enough cash to develop this site now, but after three months or even half a year, will Chu Huan have no money?

Just kidding!

Later, Chu Huan held a meeting in Hang Lung Real Estate, convened the middle and high level of the entire Hang Lung Real Estate, and selected a team. At the same time, he also selected a team from Jiaku Consulting Company to be responsible for the development of this land.

Still the same sentence, I don't even have design drawings, so I need to develop a yarn!

So now everyone is actually waiting for the design drawings to appear.

In the end, Chu Huan met with Roy Bentley and knew what HSBC meant, but Chu Huan didn't tell Roy Bentley his plan, but told him that he only recognized him at HSBC. !

Such an answer made Roy Bentley very happy!

Now Cao Yunzu is wandering around the land with his teacher Pei Yuming.

Xu Yi said: "Boss Cao hasn't given a specific time yet, but I've talked to people in their company, and the design drawings of this scale will take five months at the earliest!"

Chu Huan nodded and said, "Tell them not to worry, I want the best!"

Xu Yi nodded and said, "Understood!"

Then Xu Yi said to Chu Huan: "Boss, should we hold a press conference, or it is not a good thing that we are always rumored to have a problem with our funds, and several other companies have also called and said yes Their suppliers have recently been more active in calling for payment than before!"

Chu Huan was a little dissatisfied and said: "Why do they say something, we have to explain it, don't get used to their problem, let them report if you want to report!"

At this time, Chu Huan thought of a stalk in the later generations, opened his mouth to spread rumors, and quickly refuted them!

Although such rumors are not really harmful to Chu Huan, as I said before, the financial status of the companies under Chu Huan's name is very good, even if the payment is delivered in advance, there will be no problem .

"By the way, tell those suppliers that if you want to pay the payment now, if you want to cooperate again in the future, unless it is to reduce their costs, otherwise, we will consider changing suppliers!"

Chu Huan told Xu Yi to preach.

Xu Yi thought that this was Chu Huan's real purpose, but he still said, "Okay!"

Is this Chu Huan's real purpose?

Of course not, Chu Huan's goal is Shen Bi and Li Jiacheng!

Because just today Shen Bi couldn't bear it any longer, so he took the initiative to call Chu Huan and invite him to come out for a sit down.

Although Chu Huan and Shen Bi did not get along, the two parties had not formally fallen out after all, so Chu Huan still had to sit down for this appointment.

In the afternoon, after finishing a day's work, Chu Huan drove to the peninsula.

Originally, Shen Bi wanted to invite Chu Huan to the Xiangjiang meeting, but Chu Huan refused!

Finally, the two sides agreed to meet on the peninsula.

In the coffee shop, when Chu Huan walked in, he saw Li Jiacheng sitting there alone.

"Where's Mr. Shen?"

Chu Huan walked over, sat down and greeted Li Jiacheng with a smile.

Li Jiacheng said: "Mr. Shen should be here soon!"

Chu Huan nodded, and understood that Shen Bi was playing tricks with him. It was simply because he refused Shen Bi to go to the Xiangjiang meeting, which made Shen Bi feel a little dissatisfied, so when they met, Shen Bi deliberately arrived a few days late. In a few minutes, he played a psychological advantage with himself and wanted to take the initiative in the conversation for a while.

Li Jiacheng spoke to Chu Huan sincerely: "Chu Chairman, I hope that Director Chu can think about the matter of introducing us to Changjiang Industrial. We, Changjiang Industrial, are really sincere in cooperating with you, Chairman Chu.

This project is different from a residential real estate project. It can be sold after the completion of construction, and then exchanged for profit. I believe that Mr. Chu must want to build the largest and most luxurious business circle in Xiangjiang. If this is the case, the rent collection will be long-term, but short-term It is definitely impossible to earn back the cost inside! "

This is what Guo Desheng, Zheng Yutong and other people close to Chu Huan are worried about.

Whether it is a commercial building or a shopping mall, most real estate companies in Xiangjiang will not sell such places, but use them to collect rent.

The reason why Wharf was acquired by Pao Yugang in another time and space is because of a Harbor City project. The entire Harbor City invested 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. Even if some of the residential units were sold, it still dragged down Wharf’s cash flow.

This led to the management of Wharf, in order to be able to develop Harbor City uninterruptedly, in the end they could only choose to continue to issue new shares. As a result, Jardine's share in Wharf was less than 20%.

In the end, Bao Yugang was given a chance!

Now in the hands of Chu Huan, only Huaren Real Estate is a listed company. As a result, the land on Tsim Sha Tsui East was not bought by Huaren Real Estate.

That's why so many people think that Chu Huan will be dragged down by cash in this project.

Chu Huan smiled and said, "I appreciate Director Li's kindness. We, Hang Lung Real Estate, have already thought about independent development of the land in East Tsim Sha Tsui, and we will not bring in external companies!"

This is the first time that Chu Huan expressed his true thoughts about the Tsim Sha Tsui East land to outsiders.

But the more real the thought is, the more shocking it is, as is the case with Li Jiacheng.

"With such a huge investment, isn't Mr. Chu worried about the financial problems?" Li Jiacheng couldn't help but said.

"That's Hang Lung Real Estate's business, don't bother Li Dong to worry about it!" Chu Huan was still very polite.

Just at this time, Shen Bi walked in, less than three minutes away from Chu Huan.

When Chu Huan saw Shen Bi coming in, he couldn't help but wonder, could the other party just hide somewhere furtively, and then see him appear, and then pretend to have just arrived?

"Sorry, traffic jam, I'm late!"

After Shen Bi sat down, he spoke with a smile.

Chu Huan didn't exchange any pleasantries with the other party, and asked directly: "Boss Shen called me personally to come over, I don't know why?"

Shen Bi said with a smile: "Mr. Chu is still so vigorous and decisive, no wonder the business can be done so big!"

Chu Huan responded: "This is thanks to the help of HSBC, otherwise, my development would not be so smooth!"

Shen Bidao: "We at HSBC have always hoped to serve Xiangjiang enterprises well!"

Even though Chu Huan didn't want to exchange pleasantries, Shen Bi had to deal with them. Fortunately, the two of them really had nothing to exchange for pleasantries. Next, Shen Bi told the story of asking Chu Huan out. .

"Did the recent newspapers have some influence on the recent situation of Director Chu's company?"

Chu Huan said calmly: "It's okay, the impact is not so much, it's just some minor troubles!"

Shen Bi said: "Mr. Chu is one of the closest business partners of our HSBC in Xiangjiang. If Mr. Chu has any questions, please tell us at HSBC. The head class of Shaya mentioned it to me before, saying Let us cooperate with President Chu's development in Xiangjiang!"

"Our company will always remember Shaya Taipan's help to our company!" Chu Huan said in a neutral manner.

Shen Bi smiled. From his point of view, Chu Huan was still holding on at this time. Such a large piece of land had been placed there, and there was no movement at all. He didn't believe that Chu Huan was not in a hurry.

Shen Bi decided to give Chu Huan a step down at this time. After all, it won't be long before Chu Huan is the most powerful horse in his hands, so he can't just suppress it!

When he had the upper hand, Shen Bi didn't mind showing his generosity.

"Mr. Chu, HSBC has already inspected the project in East Tsim Sha Tsui. It is a very worthwhile investment project. Since Mr. Chu has encountered some financial problems now, who made us HSBC and Mr. Chu be the closest partners Well, after my suggestion with Shaya Taipan, we at HSBC are willing to provide part of the funds to invest in this project of Mr. Chu.

By the way, Dong Li's Cheung Kong Industrial Co., Ltd. is a very successful real estate company, especially when it comes to the development of large commercial centers, it has its own unique insights.

Therefore, Mr. Chu, it is better to introduce Cheung Kong Industry into it, and the three parties will work together to create a good story about Xiangjiang business! "

Chu Huan sat there without speaking, but looked at Shen Bi in a daze.

After Shen Bi finished speaking, he didn't get the approval from Chu Huan as he had imagined, but instead made Chu Huan stare at him blankly, which made Shen Bi somewhat incomprehensible.

Is it because of being too happy?

In fact, I really can't blame Shen Bi for having such thoughts. Shen Bi has been a senior executive of HSBC since he came to Xiangjiang, and he has contacted so many people in Xiangjiang's business circle.

When every character mentions HSBC, which one is not revered.

Even if Shen Bi repeatedly reminded himself that this was their respect for HSBC, not for themselves, but after a long time, it was inevitable that they would not be able to tell whether it was for themselves or HSBC.

Now Shen Bi has become the most powerful candidate for HSBC's next taipan. In fact, in Shen Bi's heart at this time, he is HSBC, and HSBC is himself.

Although Chu Huan let himself be deflated one after another before, that was already a thing of the past. During this time, Shen Bi had already inquired through his own relationship, and Chu Huan hadn't contacted any banks yet. Chu Huan also understood this Such a large project, such a huge amount of funds, has the disadvantage of slow payment.

These are not what other banks can afford.

So Shen Bi was sure that Chu Huan would definitely turn to HSBC for help in the end. Since he was asking for help from HSBC, it made sense for him to behave a little frivolously.

Chu Huan finally spoke, and said with a smile: "I appreciate Mr. Shen's kindness. I have already told Mr. Li just now that we, Hang Lung Real Estate, want to complete this project independently and are not planning to bring in other partners. As for the funds required for the project, it will be a few months later, after all, the design drawings of the entire project have not yet been released!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Huan stood up, told Shen Bi that he still had something to do, and then left the coffee shop first.

Because Chu Huan didn't know what was going on in Shen Bi's mind, at this moment, because of Shen Bi's words, Chu Huan began to suspect that he had been so vigilant against Shen Bi all this time, was he a little overwhelmed and too nervous?

Seeing Chu Huan leaving just like that, Shen Bi's face turned red instantly. He didn't expect that Chu Huan would dare to leave at this time?

The anger in my heart rose immediately.

But Shen Bi is not an ordinary person after all, this anger not only did not make Shen Bi lose his mind, but extinguished the pride in his heart just now, and calmed down again.

"Mr. Li, you don't have to worry. Since I promised you this matter, I will definitely bring you Changjiang Industrial. During this period of time, you can just develop your own Changjiang Industrial, and I have to reflect on myself during this period. performance.

But as I said, if Changshi can join, he will definitely be able to join. It is useless when Jesus comes! "

Finally, Shen Bi preached indifferently.

After speaking with Li Jiacheng, Shen Bi got up directly and left the coffee shop.

The waiter in the coffee shop, seeing that only one customer left at this table, hurried over, "Sir, are you paying the bill?"

Li Jiacheng: "."

Shen Bi, who regained his sanity and calmed down, did not choose to go to Sha Ya immediately. If he had Sha Ya's help this time, he would still be unable to let HSBC penetrate into Chu Huan's business.

So from now on, I am afraid that I will not get any preferential treatment in Shaya.

But Shen Bi didn't choose to deal with Chu Huan with a trick like before.

Since Chu Huan wanted to fight, Shen Bi had to put his heart into fighting Chu Huan with the resources that HSBC possessed!

So at the first moment, Shen Bi went to Yihe!

"It's still a long time, let's take our time!"

Shen Bi sat in his car and spoke softly.

Before, he thought that it would take too long for Chu Huan to design the site in East Tsim Sha Tsui, but now he needs this time instead.

Now that Chu Huan had met Roy Bentley, he naturally knew that Shen Bi was authorized by Sha Ya, and he also knew that Shen Bi would definitely do something later.

"Will there be some trouble?" Cao Yunshang asked Chu Huan worriedly after learning that Chu Huan rejected Shen Bi's request.

Sitting there, Chu Huan smiled lightly and said, "It's not like I haven't faced it before, don't worry, Sha Ya doesn't support Shen Bi as much as I imagined!"

Cao Yunshang raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Do you know something?"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "No, but since Sha Ya likes to play the balance technique of the ancient Chinese emperors, Sha Ya will never allow anyone to have more influence in HSBC than herself at this time.

Those princes in ancient times, before their father died, established their own power in the court alive and kicking, which one would have a good end?

Power is a good thing, even if it is a biological child, one has to be on guard, let alone Sha Ya and Shen Bi are not biological children! "

Seeing that Chu Huan was so confident, Cao Yunshang didn't worry too much. After following Chu Huan for so many years, Cao Yunshang was already used to Chu Huan solving all problems easily.

So Cao Yunshang believes that this time is no exception!

Both Chu Huan and Shen Bi knew that as long as the project had not officially started, it would be impossible for the two sides to really fight each other.

Everything now is just a mutual temptation.

"Shen Bi needs time, and so do we." Chu Huan said with a smile.

Cao Yunshang nodded.

In the following time, there were still discussions on whether Hang Lung Properties could handle the project in Tsim Sha Tsui East, but Chu Huan no longer cared about it, and now he had other things to do.

In May, for Chu Huan, there is a very important thing to do.

That is the North American side, "Jaws" will be released this month.

This is the first movie released after Vertex Pictures was founded, and the box office of this movie is also of great use to Chu Huan.

In addition, Chu Huan also needs to withdraw some funds for himself in North America. After all, North America is his withdrawal country just like Japan!

So after thinking about it, Chu Huan decided to go to Los Angeles to see the premiere of "Jaws" in person.

Originally, Chu Huan wanted to take Miao Kexiu there, but the literary film that Miao Kexiu participated in last year was canceled because of last year's Golden Donkey Awards in Taiwan, and she participated in this year's Golden Donkey Awards instead.

So Miao Kexiu was going to Taiwan to participate in the Golden Donkey Awards, and the other women had other things to do, so Chu Huan had to go to Los Angeles by himself!
