Chapter 0021 The Landlord’s Home is in a Variety of Things

At present, in Hong Kong, because the undersea tunnel and subway are not yet open, the only way to travel between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island, which is separated by Victoria Harbour, is by ferry.

For the management of this industry, the Hong Kong government still adopts a franchise system, allowing companies such as Star Ferry and Yau Ma Tei Ferry to operate monopolistically according to their respective routes.

Yi Huiqiang and Gao Xian took the Yau Ma Tei Ferry between Yau Ma Tei and Central. The price of two first-class tickets was 2.5 cents, which is 2.5 cents.

As for the car he drove just now, the second young master of the Yi family didn't have the patience to wait for the ferry to ferry it, so he handed it over to the employees of the Yi Group for handling, while he went to the opposite side and drove the other car he had prepared.

Seeing Gao Xian reading the newspaper with so much interest, especially when he found out the news about the Far East Exchange, Yi Huiqiang couldn't help but joked: "Brother, you are obsessed with such a boring thing!"

Gao Xian was slightly surprised and said: "Brother Qiang, you analyzed the prospects of the Far East Exchange so thoroughly that day. It shows that you have fully understood and thought about it. Doesn't this also mean that you are interested in this field?"

What?"

"Actually, I just went to inquire about it out of curiosity." Seeing the look of disbelief on Gao Xian's face, Yi Huiqiang touched his nose and further added: "No matter what I do, I always insist on the most

Three months. Because of this, my father even called me a loser."

When Gao Xian heard this, he couldn't help but smile. This style of conduct was indeed in line with the impression given to him by the second young master of the Yi family.

Yi Huiqiang himself felt embarrassed, and quickly changed the subject: "The stock market in Xiangjiang is indeed improving, but I think you are so enthusiastic, maybe you think there is more than an ordinary bull market. Then what is the basis for your judgment?"

After Gao Xian thought for a moment, he slowly replied: "I think, first of all, we have to look at the overall environment."

"Although there were strikes and riots the year before last, Yanjing has made it clear that it hopes that Xiangjiang will maintain a stable situation, and the situation is as we can see, Xiangjiang has completely stabilized, and people's concerns have been completely alleviated."

"In contrast, looking at the surrounding areas that have long had close economic exchanges with Hong Kong, fierce fighting between the north and the south of Annan on the Indochina Peninsula is in full swing; Malaya, which kicked Singapore out of the federation in the past few years, has just experienced a crisis similar to a coup.

; Java has conflicts with Malaya from time to time... In short, there are constant disputes and unrest."

"Among them, the Nanyang Chinese have always been a vulnerable group. Their interests are constantly being violated but they are unable to resist. In order to protect their property as much as possible, Chinese capital will naturally flock to the free port of Hong Kong, and then inject massive funds into the capital market of Hong Kong.

.”

"In addition, as far as Xiangjiang's own economy is concerned, although there have been successive banking crises and real estate bubbles in the past ten years, the development trend is still quite good, which is enough to lay a solid foundation for the upcoming stock market prosperity."

Yi Huiqiang listened carefully to Gao Xian's analysis with squinted eyes. After savoring it for a moment, he gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother, I am willing to be inferior to you in terms of your vision."

Gao Xian said modestly: "I am only analyzing from a macro level. Whether it is right or wrong in the end depends on the development of the situation in the next two to three years to verify."

"The high-profile talk at the macro level does give people the feeling of not touching the ground, so let's get a little specific." After Yi Huiqiang joked, he raised his finger and pointed at the ferry, "Yau Ma Tei Ferry is now a constituent stock of the Hang Seng Index. First, what do you think of its stock prospects?"

Gao Xian pondered: "In the past ten years, the government has developed new towns such as Tsuen Wan and Tuen Mun, which has really brought considerable business opportunities to the Yau Ma Tei Ferry. This dividend should continue for some time, but the construction of the undersea tunnel has started this year Once completed, it will definitely divert the passenger flow from the Yau Ma Tei Ferry."

Yi Huiqiang rubbed his hands, "Brother, what you said is so clear and logical, I'm tempted and want to enter the market for fun."

Gao Xian laughed and said: "Brother Qiang is a son of a wealthy family, so he can't act at any time."

Yi Huiqiang said with a sad face: "You don't know this. My family is very strict. You can work in the family company, but don't even think about misappropriating funds. Don't look at my glamorous appearance. I don't have as much private money as my little sister."

Gao Xian shook his head slightly and couldn't help complaining, "It turned out to be an embroidered pillow. I thought that after talking so much, I could get some start-up funds. Alas, everything is difficult at the beginning!"

…

After landing on Hong Kong Island, Yi Huiqiang, who was chatting happily on the ferry, took Gao Xian and went straight to the Yi family's base camp - Causeway Bay.

It is obvious that the current level of development in Xiangjiang, even in the most prosperous areas such as Central and Causeway Bay, is still very different from the era when Gao Xian came.

For example, similar to Kowloon where the height of buildings is restricted due to Kai Tak Airport, there are only a handful of buildings higher than five storeys, and there are not even a shadow of a skyscraper.

Gao Xian couldn't help but make a comment to Yi Huiqiang, who was taking him sightseeing, "Hong Kong Island is not much better than Kowloon. They both look like a small county."

Yi Huiqiang, who was in high spirits, choked and coughed several times, "Brother, which county are you talking about? Although Xiangjiang cannot compare with international metropolises such as New York and London, it still ranks quite high in Asia. of."

In fact, the reason why Gao Xian was so inspired was because he came from Xiangjiang in that era. The impression of him jumping up and down non-stop was so profound. Now that he saw its undeveloped face, he suddenly thought: "What's so good about it?" It's condescending, and the level it was a few decades ago is nothing more than this."

Gao Xian, who felt he was speechless, quickly changed the topic, "Are you there yet? You've already had your meal."

"Eating is not easy." Yi Huiqiang drove Gao Xian and made a big circle along several connecting roads. Then he pretended to be Bo Yirufeng and said, "Did you see it? It turns out that this is a My grandfather spent 3.8 million, which is equivalent to several hundred million today, to buy the entire mountain from the British. However, it was only in the past ten years that road construction and development began."

Although he had expected it, Gao Xian was still shocked. The financial resources of the Yi family were probably not comparable to those of the Wen family, who got rich by hoarding military bills.

I saw that the block in front of me, which was dotted with office buildings, hotels, etc., was still occupied by amusement parks. It was obvious that it was still a long way from being fully developed.

"This amusement park was my favorite place to play when I was a child. Unfortunately, it will be completely demolished sooner or later." After Yi Huiqiang finished her emotion, she pointed to a splendidly decorated theater and said: "Yi Theater is a major attraction during the Xiangjiang Festival. It's an important performance venue. Brother, if you can organize the victims and put on an attractive show, I can help you show up in front of the audience in Hong Kong."
