The Hong Kong MTR Corporation, also known as the Hong Kong Railway Company, is located throughout the Hong Kong area and controls most of the travel of Hong Kong people. It has an average of about 1.3 million passengers every day, accounting for almost 20% of Hong Kong's population.
Moreover, the MTR Corporation also owns the management rights of many properties along the subway lines. This is another big piece of fat. It can be said that it has control over the land and underground. It is known as one of the most profitable subway companies in the world.
Of course, the government is reluctant to let go of such a profitable MTR Corporation. Even after it was listed, the government still occupied 76% of the shares and became the absolute controlling shareholder.
The remaining 23% of the shares circulating in the market have become so fragrant that no one who holds them is willing to let them go!
, held through several foundations.
Such a high-quality asset was given away at any time, which even made Wu Clan feel distressed!
By the way, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange stipulates that listed companies must have 25% of circulating shares, which does not apply to the MTR Corporation.
However, they also went back to justify themselves, saying that the shares of the MTR Corporation are held by all citizens of Hong Kong through the government, so they cannot be counted as private shareholdings. Therefore, the 25% tradable shares do not apply to the MTR Corporation.
All right.
This shows how double standards the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has. It’s no wonder that after Ma Yun talked with them several times, he didn’t even want to get rid of them and went directly to the United States to have fun.
It's no wonder that Xiao Qi has always looked down on Hong Kong's economy and finance. He is not willing to come in and join in the fun of such a small market where he can only play by himself, nor can he cause trouble for himself.
On the one hand, Hong Kong is claiming that its life is not as good as before, but on the other hand, it has never been willing to open its arms and welcome new investors to enter. It would be strange if such an economy does not decline!
Then again.
The MTR Corporation is one of the constituent stocks of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and one of the representative companies of Hong Kong. Although it has been affected by the financial crisis recently, its foundation is very deep, so its market value currently remains at around HK$160 billion.
,.
The money doesn't seem like much. But it is basically no different from the gold given to Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi to maintain their value.
You don’t need to consume entertainment, but you can’t go to work or go out every day, right?
If you are selling a house, you may encounter people who cannot afford public rental housing, but you have never heard of people who cannot afford to take the subway, right?
As long as you go to work or go out, you have to use the underground lines of the MTR. You have to buy something to eat and drink around the MTR and take a stroll.
Therefore, the MTR Corporation’s spending power is the strongest and most secure company in Hong Kong.
At the same time, the annual profits of the MTR are also very high, basically more than in 2007. After the merger of the Kowloon Express Railway, its profitability is basically 10 billion Hong Kong dollars per year, which is almost 300 to 400 million Hong Kong dollars. It can maintain its income despite droughts and floods. What's wrong with that?
of?
Because of this, Li Chaoren originally planned to give the shares of the MTR Corporation as a gift to his grandchildren. When they come of age, the shares will be transferred to their names.
But now, for the sake of his youngest son, Li Chaoren has no choice but to reluctantly part ways with her.
Listening to Wu's angry words, Li Chaoren burst into laughter, "Ah, don't I know that MTR shares are a good thing? But the problem is that I can get more things, so this exchange is worth it.
...The problem now is not that I gave too much. In fact, I feel that I gave too little, and Xiao Qi may not like it!"
"No way?" Wu Clan swallowed his saliva, "No matter what, it's close to 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. Who can't Xiao Qi's contract be given to? By giving it to our Li family, not only can we get 9 billion in share gifts. We can also get Li
Family friendship is clearly a win-win situation!"
"Win-win?" Li Chaoren shook his head, "This is just your opinion! There are so many people looking for cooperation with Xiao Qi. It's very simple. How strong is Temasek? If Xiao Qi cooperates with them, it will directly open Nanyang's investment channels.
!There are also several major OEMs in Baodao. You must know that these Baodao people are the targets of the mainland government. Xiao Qi can use this to gain points for Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng!
What does our Li family have? Money? More than Xiao Qi? Hong Kong’s status? You also know that Xiao Qi never cares about Hong Kong’s financial status! What kind of influence does it have in the world? I should be inferior to Xiao Qi, right?...
If you do the math, Xiao Qi actually doesn’t need the Li family to do anything at all, we are the only ones begging him!"
Wu Clan's face looked a little ugly.
Once upon a time, mainland people could only look up to Hong Kong people, and mainland businessmen were looked down upon by Hong Kong businessmen, who thought they were vulgar and stupid.
But over the years, this perception has slowly changed. Many mainland businessmen have turned to look down on Hong Kong businessmen, and their strength has greatly exceeded that of Hong Kong as a whole. This has made many Hong Kong businessmen very disappointed.
Fortunately, Li Chaoren said this himself, otherwise another person would never dare to say this in front of Li Chaoren.
And Li Chaoren can say it calmly, which just proves that he can see himself very clearly, his mind is very clear, and his majesty is still there.
"Please prepare for me, I will go to eastern Guangdong tomorrow!" After thinking, Li Chaoren made a decision.
"Eastern Guangdong?" Wu Clan asked doubtfully.
"Yes, East Guangdong!" Li Chaoren said calmly, "Don't TVB, which has been successfully privatized and delisted, want to settle in East Guangdong? Although it has been agreed there, various procedures have not been completed yet. I
Go do them a favor! They should still pay attention to the ardent feelings of Hong Kong people towards the mainland."
Wu Clan heard this and nodded. Li Chaoren was originally from Chaoshan and had always had a close relationship with eastern Guangdong. With his help, it would be much easier and smoother for TVB to settle in eastern Guangdong.
"In addition, you can select 20 first-class shops in our buildings in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen and transfer them to the name of 'Zhizhi Jewelry'." Li Chaoren ordered again.
"Okay!" Wu Clan agreed. Compared with the MTR Corporation's stocks, the cost of real estate in the mainland is very low, and the profit is very high. 20 shops with an area of about 100 square meters have a market value of 500 million Hong Kong dollars, but the cost is not enough.
The price is around 200 million Hong Kong dollars, which is nothing.
Li Chaoren personally went to eastern Guangdong to advocate for TVB. The value of this face and favor is naturally no less than 500 million.
Calculated in this way, Li Chaoren almost gave Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi a gift of 5 billion each, which even the Wu clan couldn't help but envy.
So it’s good to have a daughter. If you marry the right person, you can receive gifts with such pride!
…
Li Chaoren did not tell Xiao Qi about his actions, but under the operation of the Wu clan, Li Chaoren went to eastern Guangdong the next day, and Li Shaozhi and Feng Kexin received the news.
The two expectant mothers have been meeting together every other day recently to discuss raising children, especially Li Shaozhi, who is pregnant for the first time. The inquiries are extremely detailed, but Feng Kexin is not impatient, but is
Let’s discuss it together with great interest.
Only mothers like them would go to such trouble. If anyone else was listening next to them, they would definitely find it boring.
When they found out about this, they happened to be having afternoon tea together again.
Feng Kexin was happy but also confused. She was not happy for the shares in the MTR Corporation, but because she had someone to help her TVB.
"Li Chaoren probably wants to get more benefits from our husbands by doing this." Feng Kexin said doubtfully, "Sister Zhizhi, do you think we should refuse directly?"
"Why refuse?" Li Shaozhi smiled sweetly, and even Feng Kexin felt beautiful when he saw it, "Don't worry, Li Chaoren is not the kind of person who has no sense of proportion. If he can give us these things, it proves that he can guarantee
Our husbands will definitely agree! Although I don’t care what others give as gifts, the MTR Corporation shares are indeed good and are very suitable for our children.”
After becoming pregnant with Xiao Qi's child, Li Shaozhi was much more relaxed than before and had more plans for the child in her belly.
After a pause, she added: "Anyway, let's call that heartless guy first and ask him what to do!... Humph, he hasn't come to see us for almost two months. It's really too much! When his son is born,
I have to spank his little butt a few more times! If you want to blame, let the baby blame his father for being indifferent to us!"
"Giggle~~"
Feng Kexin laughed when he heard this.
She didn't believe Li Shaozhi's words. She knew best how much Li Shaozhi valued the child in her belly. She could hardly even walk without fear of falling and hurting the baby. How could she be willing to spank the child?
But not to mention Li Shaozhi, even Feng Kexin, a mother who is pregnant for the second time, is the same. The pregnancy reaction is much greater than when she was pregnant with Ping, and her heart is also softer.
Speaking of which, Feng Kexin's feeling of pregnancy this time is completely different from the first time.
This time Feng Kexin felt even more how happy it was to be pregnant with Xiao Qi and her love child. She was in a good mood all day long. Even though the child in her belly often made her vomit after eating, it did not relieve her at all.
Love for the baby.
On weekdays, Feng Kexin's favorite thing to do is to lie on the sofa or bed and whisper to the baby in her belly.
Although the baby can't hear what she said at all now, she still has so many things to say to the baby, just like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, coquettish and innocent.
Of course, there is a slight flaw, that is, after Xiao Qi returned to the mainland in August, he only came here once in September, which really made her miss him very much.
I don’t know when my husband will have to come to Hong Kong again. Even if he doesn’t visit the baby, he still has to visit the baby’s mother~~ (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
