The whole afternoon, after his formal work, Simon spent the rest of his time looking at the house.
Changping District not only has the rose garden villa area controlled by the westero system, but also has many high-end villa communities. Chen Qingnian also carried out a shopping spree.
Nansha River near the Shahe Reservoir in a villa called Bishui manor.
Chen Qing took her boss into a villa and introduced: "this is a real estate that started to develop in 1994, two years later than rose garden, but it has been successfully opened in 1995. Because of its excellent location in Linshui, the current average price is about 6000. The boss guesses, what is the price when it opened in 1995?"
Most of the other people have already left. Apart from the security and other attendants, there are only a few women left, such as Jill peckert and Charlotte brenita. Simon has no mind to guess. He looks at the villa with an area of about 400 square meters and asks, "how much?"
"2500," Chen Qing did not force her boss to guess. She said, "since the opening in June 1995, it has more than doubled in value in two and a half years. The occupancy rate of the first 200 villas is more than 70%, which is the best villa in Changping District. I have selected 27 villas with better location and larger house type at one time, We only get 20% off in bargaining. "
Chen Qing's speech is full of interest, while Simon's speech is full of emotion.
Ten or twenty years later, if people hear that the price of 2500 square meters in Beijing is still the top villa, they will probably feel unreal.
Next to Charlotte brenita, she interrupted, "Chen, the occupancy rate of 70% is not high, is it?"
"That's a comparison," Chen said. "In recent years, villas in the capital area are mainly provided to overseas investors and a few people who got rich first. However, just on the way, you can see that the surrounding areas are basically rural. Unlike the west, the rich people are used to living in the suburbs, and the environment of the suburban rich areas is also very good. Here, in short, in China, Rich people don't really like low-end, remote properties. "
When they came to the villa, a few women surrounded Simon to the viewing terrace and looked around. Because it led Nansha River and was next to the reservoir, the greening of this villa area was obviously better than rose garden, so it would not give people a sense of remoteness in the countryside.
In contrast, the surrounding area of the rose garden is completely connected with the surrounding villages, which is somewhat unsatisfactory.
If we say that there are also shortcomings.
The house types here are not big, basically between 200 and 400 square meters.
However, Simon doesn't plan to live on his own anyway. If he buys it and hoards it, he won't lose money. With Simon's wealth, he has to store at least 27000 sets to meet his identity. Of course, it's not good to be empty, so I plan to have a lot of money in the house. I don't install a few women in the community, and I'm embarrassed to say hello when I go out, right?
With that in mind, Simon said to Jill peckert, "see here, around the rose garden. You'd better do the same."
Jill nodded and said, "boss, Annie and I have visited this place for a long time. However, the inside of the rose garden is very complicated. As for the surrounding, we can't take care of it."
Chen Qing beside the way: "money on the line, since the boss will continue to bet, we buy more land around the line."
Round faced Zhao Annie interrupted weakly: "it's actually about money."
Charlotte brenita said, "Simon, do you think you bet too much on real estate?"
"You have to understand, Charlotte, a lot of times, effort is not important, direction is the most important."
Charlotte brenita shook her head: "I don't quite understand."
Chen Qing heard her boss say something. At this time, she said: "the boss thinks that the prosperity of the real estate industry is an inevitable trend of the rapid economic development of every country. Europe, North America, Japan and other Southeast Asian countries have all experienced the prosperity of real estate."
Charlotte brenita said, "and then, is it all broken?"
"Oh, yes, but China's real estate industry has just started. Now is the best opportunity to enter the market. We just need to exit at the right opportunity."
"Not to mention whether we can seize the right opportunity to launch it," Charlotte brenita looked at Simon again and said, "the problem is whether China's real estate industry will prosper or not. I have also learned some information that many regions in China are still in a welfare housing system, even if the policy tends to be realistic, this system will be gradually abolished, It's hard to say how much time it will take, and whether it will ever be? "
Simon saw the Swiss girl looking at herself, but he didn't want to waste his saliva to explain. Anyway, the woman was not in charge of this part of the business. He half joked: "the water is very deep in here. You can't help me. Just let Xiaoqing take charge of it."When the Swiss girl saw Simon saying this, she stopped asking.
In fact, Simon's most profound understanding of China's real estate industry can be described by a paragraph.
In the 1990s, two people started with the same 5 million yuan. One of them bought a house and was very happy. The other one devoted himself to starting a business and worked hard. Twenty years later, the person who bought several apartments as a charterer became a billionaire. The other one focused on industry. After 20 years, he paid everything, but in the end, he was on the verge of bankruptcy with 5 million yuan in debt.
Again, it's important to choose the right direction.
On the other hand, in Simon's view, it is also a kind of social resource.
When the industrial situation of a society is all concentrated in real estate, it naturally means the accumulation of wealth. In this case, whether active or forced, if a person does not want his wealth to shrink, he has to join the real estate industry. The rest of the way is either rough and gully or abyss.
The question is, is there a solution?
yes.
It's a pity that the price is too high, so we can only procrastinate. Procrastination is a day by day, and no one knows the final result.
Simon chose to hoard his house. In addition to his hobbies, he actually understood some things.
Just like now, a villa is only worth $12 million. Ten or twenty years later, it can at least add value to $10 million or $20 million. According to the calculation of 20 years, the return of 10 times and the annual return of 16% seem to be small. However, compared with other fields, only a few top investors such as Warren Buffett can ensure that the average annual return is above this figure.
Looking at several villas here, they left Bishui manor and rushed to another villa area called Longcheng garden in the south. This villa area was built several years later than rose garden. It was just opened last year with an average price of 5000. Chen Qing ate hundreds of properties at a very favorable price.
In this way, the party did not return to the city until night fell.
After dinner, I still had dinner. This time, it was a small gathering of a few entrepreneurs belonging to the westero system at the human society headquarters on the back beach. It was not too formal. It was just drinking, chatting, listening to music, and occasionally talking about the economic situation in the general direction.
After dinner at more than ten o'clock in the evening, Simon went back to Maoer Hutong again. As soon as he got off the car in the underground parking lot, he saw Qin buzui sitting on the leisure sofa against the wall with a magazine in his hand. He looked very leisurely.
When Simon got out of the car, the girl stood up and welcomed him.
Simon hugged the tall girl with natural smiling lips and asked with a smile, "Why are you hiding here alone?"
Qin buzui did not hide, raised a finger and pointed up: "up, a lot, so big."
This is also a girl whose outlook on life has been refreshed by a group of fierce girls in the mansion.
After Qin buzui said hello to Chen Qing, brenita and Jill, Simon put his arms around the girl's slender waist and said, "go take a bath with me. By the way, how are you doing?"
Qin buzui also hugged Simon's arm, stuck his tall body to the man and said, "it's OK. I just came back from Singapore yesterday."
Simon took the girl straight through the underground corridor and said with a smile, "traveling?"
"Well."
"It can't be one, is it the new year?"
"And Michelle with me," Qin buzui said. Seeing Simon puzzled, he added, "my female guard."
Simon remembered one thing: "where's your mother and your sister?"
Qin buzui blinked and looked at the man beside him: "Simon, don't you know?"
"Well, I don't know."
"I don't know, no matter them."
Simon saw the girl frowning around him, but he didn't mention it. They came to the dressing room beside the swimming pool and went in together. The sister of Jiangshan dance, who wanted to follow up, saw it and stopped wisely.
She changed her clothes and went to the hot spring pool of the underground swimming pool. Qin buzui, who had just taken the initiative in the dressing room, learned about the man's recent plan and was not obsessed with it. She just leaned on the man's arms to chat with her.
Then Chen Qing, Jill and Charlotte all came.
We are all in the pool together. Last night, eight aggressive girls appeared again, but this time they can only look down.
Some of the girls were very resentful.
Simon was an eye opener for them last night. They could have played this way, they could have played that way. As a result, there was no last step.It's a near success.
After all, these girls know very well that only when they reach the last step with Simon westero, they can go further. Just like at this time, they can only serve next to each other. In the pool, it is obvious that they are very close to men.
Chen Qing just noticed the little expression of the girl named Zhuo he and offered a reward on the spot.
If anyone can make an exception for her boss, she has a big prize.
It's a pity that even if Chen Qing said it seriously, the girls didn't dare to be presumptuous, but Qin buzui responded to Chen Qing's call and succeeded quite easily.
However, Simon and Chen Qing jointly determine that Qin buzui's score is invalid.
Because Simon didn't take the initiative.
Since his boss doesn't plan to do anything, he is still occupied by Chen Qing this evening. Even Qin buzui is driven away. In fact, no one dares to compete with Chen Qing.
It's a new day.
This is February 2, a new Monday, the sixth day of the first month of the lunar calendar.
Although many people have started to work again, the festive atmosphere in Beijing remains the same.
It's just that this Monday's weather is not very good. There's a sandstorm again. When I get up early, I come to the yard. The world is gray. Simon has to go back to the room soon.
Have dinner with Chen Qing in the morning and discuss today's business.
Chen Qing just got some information about South Korea. When some plutocratic oligarchs, such as Samsung Group, called on their employees to donate their gold to the country to increase their foreign exchange reserves, the donation movement in South Korea has been on fire.
In fact, it has its origin.
At the beginning of the 20th century, when Korea was occupied by Japan, Japan forced loans from Korea in order to control the Korean economy and even the whole Korea. In order to get rid of Japan's loan control, the upper elite of Korea launched the "national debt repayment movement", which also called on the people to donate money and materials.
Unfortunately, that national debt repayment movement was forcibly interrupted by the Japanese. In the following years, South Korea became a colony of Japan until the end of World War II.
This time, even as like as two peas of the previous IMF loan, the underlying goal is almost the same as that of the Japanese forced loans to South Korea in the past, but the difference is that no one has stopped the patriotic acts of Koreans anymore. Not only that, but to add confidence and sense of honor to Simon, he also saw Chen's connection with the US. Arrange the mainstream media in North America to report on it.
In a word, it is the same sentence that we should satisfy the spirit of the Korean people.
As for the donation campaign that no one has stopped, is it useful?
Of course not.
The fact is that after the financial turmoil in 1997, South Korea's economy was completely liberalized. On the surface, it seems that the lifeblood of the automobile, semiconductor and other economies is still in the hands of the South Korean chaebols, but in fact, the controlling interest is gradually acquired by foreign capital. Moreover, this time, the western capital still adopted the strategy of the colonial era, and continued to be controlled by the local people.
Therefore, to put it bluntly, although the chaebols in South Korea are ostensibly prosperous, in fact, they can only be regarded as the stewards of western capital.
On both timelines, it will be.
Chen Qing and her boss discussed this matter, finalized the plan, and then said another thing: "if there is no accident, we can get the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Litai courtyard and the nearby plot in the near future. Boss, what kind of house do you want this time? "
"A more modern manor is fine. You can make some plans for me first." Simon said, "by the way, how much is it?"
"At present, we are still talking about the plot attached to the east side of Grand Hyatt Hotel, which is the most important thing, mainly because we can get as much area as possible. However, the Grand Hyatt hotel itself, about 150 million US dollars, including the adjacent plot, will not exceed 200 million US dollars. "
Simon nodded.
It's a good deal to win a hotel which is almost the top hotel in South Korea with 200 million US dollars, not to mention dozens of hectares of land nearby. In the crowded Seoul area, it is not easy to own such a property, let alone the downtown.
