During the stock market frenzy in Xiangjiang in the early 1970s, I don't know how many people were cut off leeks, but the real big winners took the opportunity to accumulate the funds needed for development and continue to make rapid progress in the low period when others were crying.
For example, Jardine harmony, the first consortium of Xiangjiang, has ambitiously formulated a 10-year reconstruction plan for the central region.
Jardine's land company is the largest landlord in the Central District of Hong Kong Island, with many buildings located in prime locations. However, these buildings have a long history and can often be traced back to more than half a century ago. The central reconstruction plan is to further develop the value of these sites. Jardine announced that the amount of funds used is 600 million.
Take the Lishan building first rebuilt by Jardine Matheson. The first generation Lishan building was built in 1904 and the second generation Lishan building was built in 1953. At this stage, the construction belongs to the third generation. The height of the building will increase to 34 floors, thus increasing a lot of rentable space.
For another example, Swire, another British funded foreign firm that has always made a lot of money, is developing private houses on the land vacated by Swire dock in recent years, and is named "Swire city", which is a large comprehensive community.
Of course, Chinese capital is also unwilling to be lonely. According to their ability, they are constantly acting in residential, industrial buildings, commercial buildings and other fields. But when it comes to development achievements, the only one who can compare with British capital is the happy group created by Gaoxian.
A supporting evidence is that, measured by the indicator of land reserve, not to mention Chinese capital, even British capital, that is, ocean travel such as Jardine's and Swire, are qualified to compare with happy group.
Through Gaoxian's capital operation, happy group has two sources of land acquisition, one is the milk company and the other is the core assets transferred from Huangpu dock; Whether it is in a prime location or not, it should be the land of the milk company, which is second only to central. Otherwise, the land company of the big landlord in central would not have been popular with Gao Xian.
The royal building, which will soon be put into use, is a commercial building built on the land of the milk company in Causeway Bay. It has a height of 42 floors, a construction area of more than 800000 square feet and a rental area of more than 600000 square feet. It is the largest commercial building in Causeway Bay at this stage and has become a well deserved landmark. From the top of the building, people have a panoramic view of Victoria Harbour.
A 20 story Xinhua people's Bank in Central District and a 40 story royal building in Causeway Bay announced that happy group, a newcomer, has successfully established a foothold in Xiangjiang real estate industry.
It is necessary to point out that in the business of real estate development, few companies undertake all links. Planning, design, construction and supervision can be outsourced. The core lies in how to effectively build these processes into an organic whole. Happy industry, which is responsible for real estate development under happy group, has trained such a team in recent years.
Gao Xianguang makes good friends. His old father-in-law Yi Mingzhe, forgetting friends, Huo Yingdong, Ma Jingxi, etc. are all experienced in the field of real estate development, so he can enter the real estate industry naturally.
Of course, this can not cover up the objective fact that the high string stall is very large. Happy group wants to build private residential and commercial buildings on the land of the milk company and Huangpu dock, and industrial buildings on the land of Gaoxian industrial estate. In particular, the Hong Kong dollar has been continuously affected by the depreciation of sterling and the US dollar, resulting in a significant increase in the cost of Xiangjiang construction industry. The huge capital required for intensive land reserve development on such a scale is absolutely inseparable from the strong support of banks.
Shen Bi, vice chairman of Huifeng bank, saw this point clearly and wisely, so he put a bridle on Gao Xian's wild horse through a favorable bank with half dead business performance, so as to reduce the threat to British capital.
However, outsiders, including Shen Bi, do not really understand the success of Gao Xian's overseas investment. He has the strength without water to support his ambition.
Moreover, the Xiangjiang property market is a deformed existence. Once the market comes, it can only be described as crazy, no less than the stock market. At this stage, the Xiangjiang property market begins to show signs of getting out of the negative effects of the stock market collapse, the world oil crisis and so on.
The price of the property market is complicated. In short, the most popular private houses in Xiangjiang are those with an area of less than 1000 square feet, known as small and medium-sized buildings, which account for more than 90% of the completed units every year. For small residential buildings with an area of less than 400 square feet, this proportion is about 50%, and the price per square foot is about 50%, According to the market research results of Gaoyi, the average is HK $265.
Besides commercial buildings, the Chinese shops put into use this year belong to the category of class A office buildings. The office space that can not be used by happy and Gaoyi is only rented but not sold. The average monthly rent is about HK $7 per square foot. Moreover, Gaoxian gives the price of Houdao in Central District in order to take care of the related households.
The land in Central District of Hong Kong Island has been basically developed, and Causeway Bay is becoming the second hot spot. The newly built landmark of Causeway Bay, the royal building, is specially used for others compared with the Xinhua people's Bank, which has a large nature of self use.
Thanks to the prosperity of Causeway Bay, the monthly rent of the royal building ranges from HK $15 to HK $30 per square foot. As for the price, it is at least 100 times the rent according to the regulations of Xiangjiang real estate industry.
In this way, the revenue that the royal building can bring to happy group every year is calculated in tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. It is not long to recover the original investment of nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars. With Gao Xian's hidden strength, his pressure on the real estate industry in Xiangjiang is not as great as that secretly analyzed by his rivals.
Of course, in order to make the landmark commercial building built in Causeway Bay a prosperous shop, Gao Xian made great efforts. He not only named it the royal building, but also invited the British Crown Prince Charles to cut the ribbon.
In fact, Prince Charles is very interested in this trip. The reason is very simple. Royal family members also want to eat, drink and sleep. Especially the young Prince Charles, pretending to be Boyle, picking up girls and enjoying... Is that inseparable from money? In contrast, the Xiangjiang River, which is thousands of miles away from the British mainland, is a very easy place to make money.
After Charles took his ambassador daughter girlfriend to Xiangjiang, Gao Xian gave a high-standard reception. Anyway, it was to let the young prince fully feel the supreme honor, and then let him willingly cheer for the royal building to become a super prosperous platform.
With Charles's Prince halo bonus, the popularity of the royal building really soared, and the people who robbed the prosperous shops almost broke their heads. In addition to the natural entry of the retail, catering and other companies under the happy group, it also attracted many well-known jewelry, watches and other businesses.
It is worth mentioning that the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department moved its headquarters to the royal building.
Gao Xian is not proud of the prosperity of the royal building. After all, except that the land of the royal building did not fall into Jardine's hands according to the "old script", there are traces of the valuable value of the royal building. Although Jardine's later moved away from Xiangjiang and sold the royal building, the royal building was not cheap. For example, one of the transactions was at a price of HK $12 billion, It fell into the hands of Liu Daxiong, who is famous for chasing female stars.
Gao Xian can be sincere and modest. Outsiders can only praise that Gao Xian is really the God of wealth. No matter what he does, he can make a lot of money. The idea of birds flying away with the Phoenix is unconsciously strong.
It has to be said that as long as there is a high string, the mysterious goodwill attached to Gao's business kingdom will continue to rise. Not to mention that the gold body is not broken, nor can anyone plot against it.
Prince Charles, who earned a lot of face and tickets, took Gao Xian's arm and told him, "David, remember to inform me of this excitement in the future."
Gao Xian, regardless of whether Prince Charles, who earns an addictive appearance fee, has been damaged, patted his chest and promised, "I also want to build the World Conference Center and the world trade building. At that time, be sure to invite his highness to come."
"That's settled," Prince Charles nodded repeatedly. "I won't stay much. We'll get together after you go to London."
Gao xianlue said: "Xiangjiang is so busy, and it's rare that the media doesn't pay close attention. Why don't your highness relax and play for more time?"
Prince Charles shook his head and sighed, "I think so, but Christmas is approaching, and the interaction between royal family members and the public is increasing. It's really inseparable."
After Gao Xian understood and laughed, he stopped talking, ate, drank and entertained, and sent Prince Charles away from Xiangjiang.
……
Christmas in the west is really close at hand. The Christmas sales season cultivated by the Hong Kong government's mobilization to hold the Xiangjiang Festival a few years ago exudes an attractive smell of money. The continuous flow of customers in the royal building has made the merchants happy. Gao Caishen is indeed Gao Caishen.
However, Gao Xian didn't care to read the beautiful statements, because Yi Huirong returned to Xiangjiang for a holiday from Toronto with one in her belly and one in her arms.
Miss Yi didn't hear the news that she came back to Xiangjiang to catch the traitor in bed, but Gao Xian entered the favorable bank unexpectedly, resulting in too busy work. The couple separated for a long time, so she took advantage of Christmas to get together.
In addition, Gao Xian intends to further participate in social and public welfare affairs in Xiangjiang, such as running for a highly prestigious public office such as the chairman of the Donghua Third People's Hospital and the chairman of the Baoliang Bureau. Miss Yi is a great expert in this regard and can be a good wife to help and provide valuable advice to her husband.
