What other industries are worth investing in in Hong Kong? This was the topic that Xiao Qi asked Li Chaoren when he came out of TVB and had lunch.☆→
Li Chaoren said with a smile, "Actually, there are many places to make money in Hong Kong, it just depends on what you think, Mr. Qi. We still have many profitable industries in the most basic industries of human life, such as food, clothing, housing and transportation."
He is not trying to avoid the most important issues, but these words also reveal Hong Kong's biggest helplessness.
That is, Hong Kong has more people but less land, and lacks resources and industrial foundation. It has not delved into the high-tech electronics industry. Apart from port trade and banking and finance, it has almost no influence on the outside world.
This is an important reason why so many wealthy people, after seeing Hong Kong's increasingly lackluster economic prospects, want to discuss with Xiao Qi and ask Xiao Qi to give them guidance on the next step in the future.
Everyone is investing in high-tech, and many people go to the United States to invest in shares and buy companies. However, these are very risky and there is no guarantee that they can make a lot of money. Sometimes they even fail to protect their capital - don't look at Xiao Qi
Investment in the electronic network industry is always unfavorable, but this is based on his memory of reincarnation. Dozens or hundreds of Internet and electronic companies are established in the United States every day, but the number of bankruptcies is also dozens every day.
There are hundreds of companies, but there are almost very few companies that can truly survive and develop.
They believed that they did not have Xiao Qi's vision, and Xiao Qi had no intention of cooperating with them in this regard, so they were very interested in Xiao Qi's proposal to develop infrastructure, real estate and other businesses in the UK.
The British system is the one that Hong Kong people are most familiar with, and their cooperative relationship with British-funded consortiums is very close - many consortiums in Hong Kong are now helmed by British people.
Xiao Qi smiled brightly. "I now have 10.5 billion US dollars in my hand. I don't know where to invest it. Hong Kong is still too small."
"Is this the income from the previous bond credit default swap insurance?" Li Chaoren couldn't help but be a little envious of him, "I can get 10.5 billion in cash income in one go, and with the addition of U.S. securities, the financial management department is actually going smoothly.
Passed this review. Qi Shao, you really have a way!"
To be honest, Li Chaoren did not believe that Xiao Qi spent 1.6 billion US dollars just to support Mochiyev.
He believed that Xiao Qi must have some inside information, and of course it would not be so detailed. Otherwise, if the four investment banks bought bond credit default swap insurance, they would only make money from two banks. Both Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs had Xiao Qi
Oddly, this default swap insurance was taken.
But despite this, he still admired Xiao Qi very much and made a bet of 1.6 billion US dollars. Even he couldn't do such courage and means.
Listening to Xiao Qi talking about this matter, Li Chaoren continued to eat his lunch slowly, and countless thoughts went through his mind.
"My Changshi Group can help acquire some company stocks. I wonder if Qi Shao is interested?" Li Chaoren asked tentatively.
He actually wanted to tie up with Xiao Qi and let Xiao Qi join the Li family's chariot, so that he could not only draw on the power of the world's richest man, but also develop his own family business empire. This was definitely a good thing.
Of course, with his sophistication, it is impossible for Xiao Qi to seize control of the group after investing in Changshi Group.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qi actually refused directly, "I have no interest in real estate, let's forget about Changshi Group."
Li Chaoren was speechless for a moment, didn't you own Fairy Real Estate? And you said you were not interested in real estate?
But then he figured out that Xiao Qi's Fairy Real Estate is a wonder in the real estate industry. A Hong Kong newspaper just discussed this matter a few days ago, saying that if Fairy Real Estate is developed in Hong Kong, it will definitely gain the support of thousands of people.
Support and support. Hong Kong’s housing prices will definitely plummet by more than 50% as a result.
When you encounter people like this who have no money but are just suppressing housing prices, it can only be said that real estate developers are unlucky.
That's why Li Chao understood why Xiao Qi didn't like real estate but still wanted to invest heavily in real estate.
"But I am more interested in business in Australia and the UK." Xiao Qi then said this.
What does he mean?
Li Chaoren's thoughts were spinning in his mind, but a smile appeared on his face: "Is Qi Shao also interested in getting involved in the business I plan to invest in these places?"
"That's right." Xiao Qi nodded and said, "I'm not interested in other businesses, but I hope to do the basic living facilities business in these two countries, including water, electricity, and gas projects, as well as mobile communications."
"Oh?" Li Chaoren smiled, "Master Qi, your ideas coincide with many of mine."
"Competent people think about the same things. Mr. Li and I can naturally think of the same thing." Xiao Qidao said, "My opinion is that if Changshi has plans to do these projects, then we
A new company can be established. I can invest in it and hold about 40% of the shares, and then in the field of mobile communications, I can also provide necessary technical support to support the development of the new company."
"In Qi Shao's mind, what should be the asset size of this company?" Li Chaoren didn't answer, but raised a new question.
"About 30 billion U.S. dollars." Xiao Qi replied calmly, "I happen to have 10.5 billion in cash in hand."
Li Chaoren smiled bitterly, "You are so generous, Mr. Qi! For a large company with more than 250 billion Hong Kong dollars, it is as simple as eating and drinking."
"Aren't we just eating and drinking now?" Xiao Qi spread his hands, "As far as I know, there are countless big business deals negotiated at the dinner table. Considering the wealth and status of the two of us, this matter is actually simple.
After everything is explained clearly, the rest will be left to professionals to discuss specific matters, right?"
"That's true." Li Chaoren said with a smile, "But I have to think about this matter. After all, it involves 170 billion Hong Kong dollars in funds. No matter how powerful the Changshi Group is, it is powerless to allocate such funds immediately."
"Of course this fund will not be recorded in one lump sum. Negotiating various business transactions requires long-term practice. I estimate that it will be good to use up all the money within 3 years." Xiao Qidao, "As for what happens later.
Whether we want steady development or additional investment, we can discuss it at that time."
Li Chaoren nodded slowly. In fact, he had known this for a long time. What he said just now was just an excuse.
Since Xiao Qi made it clear, he was not afraid to ask more clearly, "Why do you only want 30% of the shares when you pay so much money? According to my understanding of you, Mr. Qi, you don't seem to be that willing."
He who gives up his dominance."
"It's very simple. The background of Cheung Kong Group is in Hong Kong, which is a place with a strong British atmosphere. The United Kingdom and Australia, which also belongs to the Commonwealth, will certainly not reject investment companies led by Hong Kong people." Xiao Qidao, "
But it’s difficult for me. If I invest alone, do you think they are willing to put their people’s livelihood industry in my hands? Do you think they are willing to let me control their communications industry?”
Li Chaoren burst into laughter again and nodded with a smile.
What Xiao Qi said is really an indisputable fact.
If a Chinese like Xiao Qi were allowed to control the infrastructure of these countries, those people would not be able to sleep well.
As for those companies in smart electronics and networks, they are just a business after all. It doesn’t matter whether Xiao Qi founded or controlled them. If they are involved in the industry of eating, drinking and eating, then see if Uncle Sam will raise his eyebrows.
Big stick?
Li Chaoren is different. Although Hong Kong is a territory of China, it is a special economic and trade free port. Coupled with its previous relationship with the United Kingdom, Li Chaoren and the others will definitely not be excluded when they go to the United Kingdom and Australia to do business.
of.
Under this situation, Xiao Qi's 30% shareholding is still an appropriate proportion.
Li Chaoren thought a lot.
Although the businesses Xiao Qi mentioned have long been the development focus of the Changshi Group and the Li family that he was optimistic about in the future, they would still be able to do it without Xiao Qi's participation.
Therefore, on the surface, it seems that Xiao Qi's funds are the icing on the cake, not a help in times of need, but rather a sense of taking advantage.
After all, Li Chaoren, Li Dachao and others actively mediate and negotiate these businesses. Xiao Qi is only responsible for investment and does not need to contribute at all.
But Li Chaoren doesn't see it that way.
He is already 81 years old. No matter how long he lives, he will not be able to protect his two sons for another twenty or thirty years, so he needs to find reliable allies for his sons.
Xiao Qi is Li Chaoren's most promising candidate.
Not only because Xiao Qi is an outstanding young genius, but also because Xiao Qi is very steady in doing things, without any impetuous mentality of young success. He is a successful example of a Confucian businessman!
Li Xiaochao and Xiao Qi now have a good relationship. If the connection between the Li family and Xiao Qi can be further strengthened and the interests of the two families are tied together, then at least for the next fifty or sixty years, the Li family will not have to worry.
Despite its prosperity and decline, the descendants of the Li family can still develop well.
Therefore, Li Chaoren has always wanted to do business directly with Xiao Qi and wanted Xiao Qi to take a stake in Cheung Kong Group.
Now, although Xiao Qi does not directly participate in Changshi Group, he can still cooperate closely when forming a new company.
Moreover, Xiao Qi is not greedy. Although he is the single largest shareholder with 30% of the shares, Changshi Group still has the advantage overall, and the Li family that controls Changshi Group also has an advantage.
Although it was impossible to agree to Xiao Qi on the spot, Li Chaoren had no intention of refusing. Instead, he began to think about how to use the huge momentum of Xiao Qi's equity participation to fuel his acquisitions in the UK and Australia! (Unfinished)
