Chapter 677: Local Snake and Giant Dragon

Two black Mercedes-Benz bulletproof cars drove into the Li family villa one after another.

Since the eldest brother was tied up, the security work of the Li family has been suddenly upgraded. Even last month, Zhang Ziqiang, who was hailed as the gangster of the century, was arrested, but the Li family still dared not take it lightly.

Li Zeju got out of the car and strode into the villa.

...

"Dad, brother, Yuanxin is too much."

The study room is decorated in antique and has a strong cultural atmosphere. On the coffee table in the middle of the study room, there is a pot of Kung Fu tea.

While making tea for his father and brother, Li Zeju described his story in the Hong Kong government today.

Compared to Li Zeju, his brother Li Zekai was much more steady. Like his father sitting in the main seat, he just listened quietly without expressing his opinion.

Mr. Li Jiacheng only celebrated his 70th birthday last month, but he cannot tell his true age at all. You can imagine how well this old man is maintaining it on weekdays.

After thinking for a few seconds, Li Jiacheng nodded slightly, looked at his eldest son and asked, "What do you think about Zekai?"

"Dad, although I think Yuanxin is a bit strong, it's not too much." Li Zekai said and looked at his younger brother: "Zeju, do you say Mr. Su and the others didn't know about it in advance?"

"Yeah, I can see."

"That's why Mr. D deliberately made you retreat." Li Zekai laughed: "But according to Yuanxin's plan... I really want to know who will pay for the money? Where will it come from?"

"Ms. Sun replied directly to me, don't consider the money for the time being." Li Zeju also laughed, feeling a little indignant: "But even if she, Sun Xihui, is the queen of containers, she is afraid she will not dare to spend 20 billion Hong Kong dollars to invest in this investment that cannot see the return, right?"

"Then do they hope that the Hong Kong government will support the mainland like this? I hope that the Hong Kong government will be released?" Da Li also frowned slightly and looked at his father.

Li Jiacheng shook his head slowly: "I know that if Mr. D dares to promise to pay 20 billion Hong Kong dollars today, then the citizens of HK dare to let him step down tomorrow."

"What is Yuanxin's plan? Say it's not?" Da Li looked at his younger brother again.

Li Zeju shook his head: "I just didn't say it! And what they are most annoying is the sentence - when they come, there will be an industrial chain and an ecology! It seems that without them, this Cyberport will not be able to become."

The family fell silent at the same time. After a long time, Li Jiacheng nodded slightly: "This sentence is indeed very strong, but it is confident."

"In the field of technology, Yuanxin is just a strong dragon, oh no, it is a giant dragon. Not to mention hk, even if the whole Asia dares to compete with them, there is not a single one."

As he said that, Li Jiacheng looked at his youngest son: "So, Zeju, Cyberport, you'd better give up."

Li Zeju's eyebrows frowned.

To be honest, when he proposed Cyberport, he really had no selfishness at the beginning, but was more of a political investment - he never thought about proposing a joint development plan. He just wanted to move in Yingke and then become an agent to earn some hard work.

Of course, moving into Cyberport can also allow Yingke to completely get rid of the label of real estate developers and transform into a technology enterprise as soon as possible, and use this to promote Yingke to go public and raise funds in the current tide of rising technology stocks.

But the Hong Kong government came up and said there was no money, so what should I do? Of course, he had to do his best to consider the Hong Kong government.

Therefore, the plan to allocate 38% of the land in Cyberport to build and sell residential buildings and make their profits to fill the gap in public buildings was introduced in nearly half a year of planning and demonstration.

In the planning, this is the most cost-effective, and it is also beneficial to the Hong Kong government and Yingke, especially the plan that allows the Hong Kong government to explain to the people of HK. For this reason, Li Zeju has been busy for more than half a year.

But now, as soon as Yuanxin came, Mr. D gave up Yingke without saying a word.

What do you think of Yingke? It’s not as cold as straw paper!

"Dad, I'm not willing to give up." Li Zeju looked at his father and brother and said seriously: "Cyberport is a plan proposed by our Yingke. Even the plots are enclosed by me. Why can they enjoy the benefits?"

"Then what do you want to do? What can you do?" Li Jiacheng looked at his son vigilantly and became serious.

He knew that his son had been "not obedient" since he was a child and had a clever mind.

This kind of personality can easily soar to the sky when encountering opportunities, but it is also very easy to fall into trouble.

——For example, in the past few years, my son was aiming at HK's satellite TV business and spent money to buy a license, so he attracted Murdoch from Australia to acquire it. In the end, HK TV, which had a total investment of only US$120 million, was sold at a sky-high price of US$950 million in less than three years.

Moreover, when selling, his youngest son was extremely strong, almost forcing Murdoch to the corner and taking the initiative throughout the process.

This is Li Zeju's soaring into the sky.

Later, Li Zeju founded Yingke and then entered Niguo Real Estate to buy at the bottom... However, this time, he bought at the bottom of the mountain.

If I hadn't taken action to stop the loss for him in time, I'm afraid the youngest son would still be trapped in the abyss of the continuous decline of Niguo Real Estate.

Therefore, Lao Li was worried that his son would do something extraordinary when he was impulsive.

"Originally, we planned to let the HK government grant us a private agreement to waive the process. I think they hope to do this too." Li Zeju said in a deep voice: "Even if we make an agreement in private, our Li family is also a Hong Konger. Hong Kong people govern Hong Kong and Hong Kongers build Hong Kongers, which is natural."

"But they will definitely not do it if they want to do it secretly."

Hearing that his son didn't seem to have any more outrageous thoughts, Li Jiacheng nodded after pondering for a moment: "Indeed, the bidding should be made public to convince everyone."

"But I'm very curious, will their technology company build real estate projects?" Old Li's eyes were full of doubts.

In the Hong Kong government office, the conversation between Su Yuanshan and Mr. D continues.

"It has always been Yuanxin's philosophy to leave professional work to professionals. In the field of building buildings, Yuanxin has not been involved before and will not be involved afterwards."

Su Yuanshan picked up the teapot and poured tea for Mr. D. The melancholy in his eyes flashed.

Of course he knows the current difficulties of the Hong Kong government, even more clearly than the Hong Kong government itself.

Under the financial crisis, many things can be covered up and made many things easy to accept - for example, the decline in the real estate market and the stock market, people naturally attribute the responsibility to the attacks on the Hong Kong dollar by international hot money.

But as the financial crisis subsides, those who have the right to speak will demand to return to the original order.

For example, the rescue of the market, the real estate market and the stock market. So much so that the 85,000 plan, which was the most important task during the reign of Mr. D, stopped at the request of public opinion.

Speaking of the 85,000 plan, we need to talk about the root cause of the high housing prices of HK.

In later generations, strictly speaking, HK's housing prices were "covered".

When China and the UK signed a joint statement, in order to prevent the Hong Kong and British government from selling land on a large scale before returning and taking away wealth, the Hong Kong and British government were almost banned from selling land in the additional terms.

Therefore, in the ten years before the return, due to economic development and various people speculating on housing, HK housing prices have risen steadily.

So, as soon as it returned, the Hong Kong government introduced an 85,000 plan - that is, to provide 85,000 houses per year, and strive to make 70% of HK residents own housing within ten years.

The land funds sold at the same time can also allow HK to have more funds to develop the field of science and technology - this is the source of Mr. D's ambition at the beginning of his administration.

However, with the financial crisis, with the continuous decline of the property market, and with an epidemic... it eventually led to HK's unemployment in 2003. Countless buildings bought by middle-class people during high-price periods were recycled by banks overnight, and the whole family fell to the streets.

House prices naturally fell to the bottom.

So, the stupid people attributed the root of all the problems to the Hong Kong government's 85,000 plan, demanding a complete stop to supply land.

Under large-scale protests, Mr. D left sadly and the land supply plan was completely stopped.

But those protesters forgot that the land was never in their hands, but in the hands of developers.

When the land is no longer supplied, then real estate developers are the biggest winners.

Therefore, a deformed city with less than 18% of residential land in the entire area, with a per capita living area of ​​the world, with three generations living in 40,50 square meters, and a commercial housing supply area generally exceeding 30 square meters. More than 50 square meters are luxury houses...

What’s funny is that just next to these crowded pigeon cages is a land park that accounts for 70% of the Hong Kong area and a luxurious golf course that only takes thousands of acres at any time.

When the house prices are pushed to the cloud by real estate developers, it will be a dream to come down again.

to be honest……

If it weren't for Yuanxin, Su Yuanshan really wanted to sit in the cloud and watch jokes.

...

Su Yuanshan withdrew his sigh without leaving any trace and laughed again.

"Yuanxin will inject US$500 million into the Internet Center and choose to go public through a backdoor listing at appropriate times. Then the Hong Kong government will use land as capital and jointly establish a Cyberport management company and an industrial incubation fund with the Internet Center and other interested capitals. The company will make every effort to build a Cyberport in accordance with the plan. While providing services to the incoming companies, it will also sign a priority investment agreement with the moving companies, especially the incubating companies."

"To put it bluntly, we want to truly turn Cyberport into the center of incubating technology industry, rather than an investment project that can see returns immediately."

Mr. D has been listening to Su Yuanshan's words seriously. After hearing this, he suddenly asked: "I heard that Yuanxin is the major shareholder of the website with the highest Internet market value?"

"It's not now." Su Yuanshan shook his head and then said: "But... Newbook's ceo is also the founder of Yuanxin Internet Center."

"..." Mr. D couldn't help but take a breath.

Even if he doesn't understand the Internet, he knows that the current market value of newbook has reached US$60 billion, and it has not yet fallen due to the reduction of holdings of major shareholders.

"So, if you can support a company to go public, where should you consider rent?" Su Yuanshan smiled and said, "If the Hong Kong government is worried about public opinion, then you can implement a second plan. Yuanxin will dominate Cyberport and provide rent to the Hong Kong government every year."

“This is equivalent to contracting.”

"Of course, there is also a third plan. The Hong Kong government directly sells land to Yuanxin at a low price and signs a targeted construction agreement. Of course, companies that move into Cyberport still need to enjoy preferential conditions such as low tax rates and talented Hong Kong citizenship plans. Even this place can be auctioned publicly - in fact, I really hope that HK can have local people standing up to shoulder the banner of Cyberport's future for technology."

Mr. D was slightly stunned when he heard this and looked at Su Yuanshan with some resentment.

"By the way, Mr. D, the field of technology is changing with each passing day, everything... should be fast."

Su Yuanshan took a look at the time: "We strive to complete the construction next year and complete the full entry the year after."

"By the way, I can also guarantee that many international giants that should come will come."

**No charges below**

According to the information, it was not Xiao Li who came up and wanted to make a real estate business. After all, the income from selling buildings in 1998 was far inferior to the listing of hype technology companies. The 70% of the residential area circulated was only the building area, not the area of ​​the land, and it was agreed in the planning. After all, the reason was that the Hong Kong government was poor, had no courage, and was afraid of taking responsibility. As for the "collusion between officials and businessmen" that caused a lot of controversy, it was actually mainly because of the private agreement to approve the land rather than the public bidding.

However, the main reason for Cyberport's failure is not this, but its entrepreneurship, employment, living environment and ecology, as well as the subsequent Internet bubble. This is no longer being developed here. If you are interested, you can search for the article "Cyberport that died prematurely, Hong Kong that is uncertain". I have verified the quotations in the article, which are considered an analysis article that is closer to the truth.

The reason for intervening in HK was also discussed in the group because it was the only place that could harvest Southeast Asian talents and capital at that time. If you don’t win HK, you won’t be able to win Southeast Asia.
