There is a saying that the water poured by the married daughter can not be generalized in the actual specific situation. Take Yi Huirong, the only apple of the eye of Yi Mingzhe, the owner of the Yi family. The degree of family attention he has received and the value of family marriage after marrying Gao Xian are not comparable to ordinary daughters.
After Yi Mingzhe confirmed that his beloved daughter Yi Huirong was about to become a member of the house of Lords of the Canadian Parliament, he was not much happier, as if he were a teenager all of a sudden.
You know, Yi Mingzhe is not a rich man who has never seen the world outside his own one-third of an mu of land. Just here in Xiangjiang, he served as a Chinese non-official member of the Executive Council of the Hong Kong government, and he was also the chief Chinese non-official member, belonging to the rank of Chinese leaders in Xiangjiang; However, because of the close relationship with the mainland in the special period of the 1960s, the Hong Kong government was suspicious and hid in the snow.
It can be said that over the years, the whole Yi family has been relatively low-key. Family members have made no achievements in Xiangjiang politics. Even Yi Huirong's wedding to Gao Xian was held in Canada, which is related to this reason.
Now, Yi Huirong has become a member of the upper house of the Canadian Parliament, setting a new record for the political participation of Chinese in Canada, which shows that the development of Yi family members abroad is not only an ordinary branch and leaf, but also a towering tree, which is of great significance to Yi Mingzhe.
This special change can be summed up in the simplest vernacular. Don't think that I, Yi Mingzhe, have become the yellow flower of yesterday. I'm out of breath!
In addition, from a commercial point of view, the news that Miss Yi is a member of the upper house of the Canadian Parliament can also help Yi group alleviate the pressure of public opinion to a certain extent.
At this stage, Yishi group is packaging several of its companies and preparing to list the real estate business, which has triggered a lot of speculation from the outside world, and the negative effects can not be ignored.
It's simple to say. The land reserves in Yi's ancestral industry are extremely considerable. With the rapid growth of population and rapid economic development after the end of World War II, Xiangjiang has become a veritable Jinshan. Previously, these interests have never been shared through the public platform of Xiangjiang stock market. Even if the boom in the Xiangjiang stock market in the early 1970s led to the rapid rise of many Chinese capital that was far less powerful than the e-commerce group, this conservatism was not broken.
Now is a delicate stage of the situation, and the land term of Xiangjiang has gradually become an open secret of wide concern.
Yi family suddenly chose the current bull market opportunity to push the real estate business to the stock market. What is the real intention? Your relationship with the mainland has always been so good. Are you worried about risks? Don't you have the same plan to cash out and move overseas?
And so on, the murmur came together, and the door was so high that Yi Mingzhe had to respond publicly, and repeatedly stated that the foundation of the Yi River was the Xiang Jiang, and every cent of the Yi Group's profits remained in the Xiang River.
When he learned that his beloved daughter had become a member of the upper house of the Canadian Parliament, Yi Mingzhe suddenly opened his eyes and talked about it as much as the outside world wanted. Anyway, Xiangjiang has been like this for so many years; As for the mainland side, although many old leaders are gone and trust may need to be re consolidated, the Yi family's value in both political and business circles is not afraid of people taking political interest.
When Weng and his son-in-law were chatting in the study, Yi Mingzhe took a tea cup and happily expressed his emotional openness. "It doesn't matter how much the evil wind of Xiangjiang blows when I think of Xiaorong's promise!"
In Gao Xian's view, it's no surprise that his father-in-law's family packaged and listed the real estate business at this time. Yi's group really needs greater cash flow to support its investment in the mainland. The investment amount of the five-star hotel in Yangcheng alone is hundreds of millions of dollars, converted into Hong Kong dollars, nearly one billion.
You know, in this era, the materials needed for the construction of a five-star hotel in line with international standards, including special steel and glass, can hardly be found in the mainland. They all need to be imported, and the cost of software such as staff training can not be ignored. Yishi group needs large investment everywhere, We must seize the excellent financing opportunity of the bull market of Xiangjiang stock market to alleviate the pressure of capital turnover.
Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that the Yi family has the selfishness of the answer needed by the noise, but it still belongs to the scope of human nature. If you really want to be serious, take a look at how Xiangjiang company will become popular ten years later in the "old script" and the mainland emerging companies whose names are almost household names when China's economy rises in the future, How many people register in the mainland will understand the real reality that the "Saint standard" is easy to establish but difficult to popularize.
Therefore, Gao Xian sincerely echoed his father-in-law's words and said, "just look at it. Those noises that only want to oppress the answers they need are actually farts. There's no need to pay attention to them."
After listening to Sir Gao's vulgar metaphor, the tea in Yi Mingzhe's mouth almost gushed out, but the old man was very happy and joked, "you're talking about experience."
Gao Xian also smiled. That's true. He heard only a lot of noise. Especially after the strong end of the acquisition war of Zhonghua bus and the official debut of the bull market of Xiangjiang stock market, all forces suddenly found that I went. Almost every Xiangjiang citizen has a share of Xiangjiang public utilities that contribute profits. He has completed a new round of territory division and has no chance to intervene.
In terms of energy, Kadoorie family controls CLP; Happy energy controls Xiangjiang electric lamp company and the fuel supply with about half of the market share, and jointly controls China Gas Company with the Li family, one of the "three swordsmen".
In terms of transportation, although the railway is still the same, and the Hong Kong government controls the Kowloon Canton Railway Company and the Xiangjiang subway company, in a short time this year, the Guo family, the eldest brother of the "three swordsmen", controlled the Kowloon bus company; The Mahalanobis family, a member of the "three swordsmen", controlled the Zhonghua bus.
The star ferry and Yau Ma Tei Ferry, which provide cross harbour services on both sides of Victoria Harbour and carry passengers between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, although they are also time-honored brands, have not attracted much capital competition. The reason is tacit. After the opening of the Xiangjiang subsea tunnel and the Xiangjiang subway respectively, the traditional business of the ferry company has been inevitably squeezed, and the land reserve is not attractive. It is estimated that the value in the future is only tourism.
As for aviation, Cathay Pacific, which is jointly controlled by Swire Group and Huifeng bank, has always monopolized this fat meat flowing oil, and it has not been listed on the stock exchange, and outsiders have no chance to share it at all.
The communication industry is also controlled by British capital. British Dadong telegraph office owns the franchise of Xiangjiang foreign long-distance telephone, and Xiangjiang telephone company owns the franchise of Xiangjiang local local telephone. The only obvious change is that Jardine's has become the new controller of Xiangjiang telephone company.
All these things, these "sites" are basically the ones who get them first. Those who know later can only sigh with regret.
There is no doubt that happy group is the biggest winner. In the complex structure of happy group's control, happy strategy and happy investment at the top are not registered in Xiangjiang.
The reason is not a secret. After Gao Xian defeated Jardine and won the acquisition war of the milk company, he made such a special design in order to avoid possible retaliation from British capital. In terms of the size and status of happy group at that time, few people paid attention to it, and even those who noticed it may secretly laugh at Gao Xian for making a mountain out of a molehill, Take your future too far; But now, happy group seems to have grown into a top-level existence on an equal footing with the four British foreign banks in Xiangjiang. It doesn't want to hide its power and continue to keep a low profile, so that discussions like Gao's consortium monopolizing a certain industry in Xiangjiang are common.
In this regard, Gao Xian is too lazy to explain and declare repeatedly. He directly shows enough strength to turn those noises into farts!
For example, recently, in addition to the high-profile visit to Buckingham Palace in the UK to accept the highest level GBE, happy group will hold a massive 10th anniversary celebration. Retail companies such as Jindong supermarket have specific strong promotion and rich lottery activities, and their attraction to Xiangjiang citizens is constantly accumulating to the peak.
Fortunately, these days, telecommunications scams such as "congratulations on your winning a special prize laptop for the group's celebration of the tenth anniversary, please call the freight and accidental income tax first" have not spread everywhere, so I'm glad that the group doesn't have to worry about being splashed with dirty water.
After talking about Yi Huirong's upcoming appointment as a member of the upper house of the Canadian Parliament, Weng and his son-in-law talked about the most important business plan of Yi group, that is, the listing of Yi's real estate company.
Specifically, E-House group reorganized its three subsidiaries into a new E-House real estate company, which has five class A office buildings and high-grade residential buildings for rent collection. At present, the rental market of class A office buildings is more than HK $20 per square foot, and E-House will successively resell some family properties to E-House real estate companies in the future.
Therefore, no one can deny the fact that Yi's real estate company with a high starting point is a high-quality real estate company.
With this strength, coupled with the 10-year professional experience of Gaoyi, there is no problem with the listing of Yishi real estate company, that is, how fast the HK $500 million financing target is completed.
However, Yi Mingzhe has other requirements. He wants the equity structure of Yi's real estate company to reach the level that outsiders hold 25% of the shares before it goes public; When Yishi real estate company was publicly listed, the proportion of minority shareholders was further increased.
Gao Xian pondered his father-in-law's good intentions and finally patted his chest to promise, "you can rest assured that I will do it well."
"Of course I'm relieved." Yi Mingzhe nodded with satisfaction. Like a mirror in his heart, he was the apple of his eye. He became a member of the house of Lords of the Canadian Parliament before he was even 40. He couldn't do it simply by virtue of his personal ability. Gao Xian's husband made great contributions.
"By the way, I won't go to the banquet of happy group. Huichong and Huiqiang will be there on behalf of me." speaking of this, Yi Mingzhe suddenly began to feel low and sighed: "Your third uncle's health is not optimistic. If you really can't support it, I'm afraid there will be changes on the TV station's board of directors. You should be mentally prepared and make plans early. After all, we all have to pay attention to the role of the media. You'd better take the time to visit your third uncle. I guess he already has some ideas in his mind."
"I see." Gao Xian nodded and said, "I will visit my third uncle as soon as possible."
