Li Yao sat in his office and looked at the Global Observation in his hand. The Yuhuang Group would definitely invest in the construction of the Yuhuang Plaza project in New Zealand. This was originally a good thing.
But the current situation in Xinguo is that the land in Xinguo has been speculated at a somewhat excessive price.
If the Yuhuang Group re-enters the real estate industry in New Zealand, it will further increase land prices in New Zealand, which is not conducive to the development of New Zealand.
But it would be inappropriate to prevent Zhang Zhonghua’s Yuhuang Group from coming in. This is a huge sum of money. Of course, it’s not just about money. After rejecting the Yuhuang Group’s investment, there will inevitably be negative consequences for other foreign capital’s investment in the new country.
confidence.
"Your Excellency, Huang Tingfang of Orchard Road is now known as the Land King of Orchard. His Far East Agency has hoarded almost half a street of land on Orchard Road. If the Jade Emperor Group builds the Jade Emperor on Orchard Road,
For plazas, the situation will be even more out of control, and we need to step up the introduction of policies to restrict the real estate industry."
"Your Excellency, the land on Orchard Road is permanent, and we cannot target the Jade Emperor Group. This will make our relationship with the Jade Emperor Group very bad. Zhang Zhonghua just came here to donate money. We are urgent
Then he rejected the investment from Yuhuang Group, which had a bad impact on our country’s international reputation.
I think the Jade Emperor Group can be allowed to build the Jade Emperor Plaza project in the new town, which can divert part of the flow of people from Orchard Road, promote balanced development in various regions, and suppress the increase in land prices on Orchard Road."
“We position Orchard Road as a tourist and shopping area. If Yuhuang Group enters Orchard Road, it can speed up the construction of Orchard Road and turn Orchard Road into a super shopping mall in Southeast Asia as quickly as possible.
But if this is the case, Ng Teng Fong’s Far East Organization will also develop it and even continue to purchase land on Orchard Road.”
"The new town can indeed be considered, but we need to select more places and let the Yuhuang Group choose where to build the Yuhuang Plaza. We must respect the autonomy of the Yuhuang Group and cannot just do whatever we say."
A glint flashed in Li Yao's eyes and he spoke to his subordinates.
…
…
Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.
"Sultan, this time the Jade Emperor Group is making a big investment in Southeast Asia. If the Jade Emperor Group can be allowed to invest in several Jade Emperor Plazas in Malaysia, it will be helpful to you..."
“The terrain in Malaysia is quite special. It would be good if the Jade Emperor Group can build several Jade Emperor Plazas in each of our three capitals. In addition to the capital Kuala Lumpur, the capitals of Labuan and Putrajaya are also good choices for building Jade Emperor Plazas.
."
"Go to some local owners of Yanxiaren Company and ask them to help contact the Yuhuang Group. Although we in Malaysia are still relatively backward, the conditions we offer are several times better than those in the neighboring country. Choosing us is absolutely the right choice."
"Okay, I have dealings with many domestic businessmen of Yanxia origin. I think they will be very willing to help us contact the Jade Emperor Group."
"The conditions we give can be more generous. Even if it is a location in the city center, as long as the Yuhuang Group wants it, we will give it to them. The construction of some landmark commercial plazas by the Yuhuang Group will be of great help to our economic development.
."
Kuala Lumpur currently does not even have a building with more than 20 floors, and the per capita GDP is only more than 300 US dollars. It is still a long way to go to develop and expand.
…
In Southeast Asia, there is no independent Wenlai or royal palace.
Haji Bolkiah looked at the heated discussion among the cabinet members. Now that Wen Lai is a British colony, it is too difficult for them to establish an independent country.
"Your Majesty, it is not easy for us in Wenlai to invite the Jade Emperor Group to invest in Wenlai. Our place is really too small. I'm afraid that the Jade Emperor Group will look down on us."
"Yes, although our economy in Wenlai is good, it is still too small for a behemoth like the Yuhuang Group, with a population of only 120,000."
"Yes, although our area is five times that of Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong Island has a population of nearly four million; our area is eight times that of New Zealand, and New Zealand's population is also as high as more than two million. This population is huge.
It’s hard for the Imperial Group to look down upon us.”
"The damned British control all our oil resources. We must re-sign with the damned British as soon as possible and resume our exercise of internal autonomy as soon as possible. We cannot continue like this."
As the 32nd Sultan, Haji Bolkiah was very depressed. He looked at the direction of the new country with envy. When will we be able to establish an independent country? Then he continued: "No matter what, we will still
We should try to contact the Jade Emperor Group and offer them sufficient preferential terms. If the British come forward to stop it, our royal family will come forward."
"As commanded."
…
The Jade Emperor Plaza project of the Yuhuang Group has attracted the governments of Southeast Asian countries. It is worth 12.2 billion US dollars. The combined annual GDP of all Southeast Asian countries does not have this much, and they are all looking forward to sharing more of the cake.
Zhang Zhonghua has to deal with companies and governments from Southeast Asian countries every day.
After a busy day, Zhang Zhonghua dragged his exhausted body back to Deep Water Bay. There were too many people contacting him in the past two days.
He had been so bored that a large number of companies and countries would contact him, but he did not expect that even Wen Lai would contact the Yuhuang Group, hoping to get an investment.
To be honest, Zhang Zhonghua really wants to invest in Wenlai, but the British have the final say in Wenlai now.
Moreover, fifty years from now, the domestic population will only be 450,000. However, the per capita GDP in the future will be very high. Even now, the consumption power is not low. Although the market is small, it is okay to occupy a piece of land first, but you must first
Let Dai Linzhi communicate with the British side. After all, Wenlai is still British in a strict sense.
"Ahua, there are 12.2 billion US dollars in the group's account now. How are you going to use it? Even the construction of the Jade Emperor Plaza project will take two or three years to complete. It cannot be spent in a short time. This money will lie in the account for a day.
, just lose money for one day.”
Lou Xiao'e said worriedly that she was quite worried about Zhang Zhonghua borrowing US$12.2 billion at once.
"With this money, I plan to buy 6 billion US dollars of gold first. As for the final payment for the construction of Jade Emperor Plaza, we will discuss it at that time."
Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.
Although he is tired now, he is really happy inside. He was worried about not having money to buy gold before, but now he has the money to hoard gold. It is an unexpected surprise.
Although Lou Zhenhua next to him has been reading the newspaper, he has also paid attention to things here. After hearing that Zhang Zhonghua was about to buy gold, he did some mental calculation and said: "The current international gold price is 355 US dollars per ounce, and one ounce is 311 grams. One gram
Gold is about 114 US dollars, and one ton of gold is about 1.14 million US dollars.
Your US$6 billion can buy 5,257 tons of gold, which is almost 272 cubic meters of gold and is only the size of a room. This gold is really valuable."
"That's not how Dad calculates the increase. You definitely can't buy so much gold. If you buy dozens or hundreds of tons of gold, there will be no problem. But buying thousands or even thousands of tons at a time will inevitably drive up the international gold price, which will directly lead to
The amount of gold available to buy has decreased."
Lou Xiao'e said to Lou Zhenhua.
Zhang Zhonghua was also secretly stunned. At present, the Yuhuang Group has hoarded more than 5 billion US dollars of gold, and is working hard to obtain more than 10,000 tons at a time.
The current price of gold is US$114 per gram. Zhang Zhonghua remembers that in his previous life, when his mother went to a gold store, one gram of gold cost about RMB 440, a ton of gold cost RMB 440 million, and more than ten thousand gold cost RMB 400.
One hundred and seventy billion!
"But the gold hoarded now is too much! Why are you hoarding so much gold?"
Lou Xiao'e said.
"Sister Xiao'e, gold is a scarce resource and a precious metal that can be directly used as currency. It has a huge room for appreciation in the future, and it can be used as a raw material for core components of high-tech industries. With the development of science and technology, gold will become more and more useful.
, there is nothing wrong with hoarding more.”
Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.
"Indeed, if the Bretton Woods system disintegrates, gold will skyrocket, but will it be unsafe if you keep all your gold abroad?"
Lou Zhenhua adjusted his glasses, which were slipping slightly, and asked Zhang Zhonghua a question.
When Zhang Zhonghua heard what Lou Zhenhua said, he put down his crossed legs and smiled mysteriously: "It's all stored abroad? Uncle Lou, who told you that all my gold is stored abroad?"
"Oh? Then I'll be relieved."
As soon as Lou Zhenhua heard this, he understood that Zhang Zhonghua had already started to transfer the gold, so he didn't ask any more questions.
As for how Zhang Zhonghua was transferred? He didn't want to know that his eldest nephew had always been mysterious.
"However, Ahua, the gold held by central banks of various countries is basically in the United States. If the Bretton Woods system is disintegrated, will the United States be rogue and not return the gold?"
Lou Xiao'e frowned and asked Zhang Zhonghua.
"That's not certain. The central banks of various countries have a lot of gold deposited in the International Monetary Organization and the World Bank. It's easy to deposit it, but it's difficult to take it out. The ancestors of Americans are all down-and-out nobles, exiles, and fugitives.
Whatever, I can do anything."
Zhang Zhonghua shook his head and said.
The United States has always been the country with the largest gold reserves in the world. After World War II, many countries around the world deposited gold in the Federal Reserve, which is located in a rock formation 24 meters underground in Manhattan, New York. It contains more than 8,300 tons of gold from more than 60 countries.
The United States has refused to allow many countries to transport gold back to other countries. Even the United States will not let go of Russian gold. Compared with shamelessness, the United States is definitely one of the best.
"Indeed, the United States has done a lot of shameless things, and the Federal Reserve is probably going to start printing a lot of money again. The Hong Kong dollar and the pound in Hong Kong Island are fixed exchange rates, and they have also depreciated a lot in recent years."
"The Hong Kong dollar must be tied to the British pound. If the Hong Kong dollar is decoupled from the British pound and adopts a floating exchange rate with the U.S. dollar, the Hong Kong dollar will no longer be usable."
Zhang Zhonghua said.
"The market size of Hong Kong Island is too small, and the foreign exchange reserves are insufficient. If Wall Street shorts the Hong Kong dollar, the Hong Kong dollar will not last long."
Lou Zhenhua was silent when he heard this. Although Hong Kong Island has many opportunities, the market is too small and its ability to withstand risks is also small. If there are really financial giants who want to short the Hong Kong dollar, Hong Kong Island alone cannot survive for a few days. As for the United Kingdom,
The government? You can’t count on it at all.
Lou Zhenhua didn't want to discuss this issue, so he started to change the topic: "Ahua, the Hong Kong government has approved 50 acres of land in Kowloon to build a sports watch. It's not easy."
“It’s not easy, but it limits the nature of land use and can only build a gymnasium, which is equivalent to a public welfare project.
Even if a concert can be held, the funds are only enough to keep the stadium running. The Hong Kong government wants to slaughter the fat sheep. At the same time, it also wants me to build a Jade Emperor Plaza in Kowloon. Listen to the word "hope", which sounds a bit high-sounding.
, but it can be said that I am willing to fight and I am willing to suffer. Even if the Hong Kong government does not say anything, I am still planning to build a Jade Emperor Plaza in Kowloon.
At the same time, the stadium is also of great use. The singers of Jade Emperor Records can also hold concerts in the stadium in the future. After it is built, they can hold a concert a week and they are guaranteed to make a steady profit."
Zhang Zhonghua joked.
"You still have one concert a week? How much singing do you do?"
Lou Xiao'e said speechlessly.
"The main thing is the singers under it. I can show up occasionally. As the richest man in Yanxia, I still have to remain mysterious."
Zhang Zhonghua joked to Lou Xiao'e with a smile.
"By the way, has Master Pei Luming's gymnasium been designed? How many people does it plan to accommodate?"
When Lou Zhenhua heard Zhang Zhonghua's joke, he smiled and asked about the situation in the gymnasium...
"The gymnasium has been designed, and it is very beautifully designed. The ceiling of the gymnasium can be opened and closed, so it can be used in good or bad weather.
The stadium is planned to be able to accommodate 60,000 people, whether it is for sports games, football, basketball or concerts, it will be no problem, and it will be easy to build without any great technical difficulty."
"When is it expected to be completed?"
"It will be ready for use by the end of this year. There are so many construction companies on Hong Kong Island, and several of them will be subcontracted to participate in the construction. By then, Jade Emperor TV will be able to hold the Spring Festival Gala in the stadium."
"Spring Festival Gala? What is that?"
Lou Zhenhua asked curiously.
"The Spring Festival Gala is the completion of the Spring Festival Gala. People in the hot summer in Southeast Asia can watch it. It helps strengthen the cohesion of people in the hot summer in Southeast Asia and is conducive to the unity of overseas compatriots."
Zhang Zhonghua explained.
"It's good to notice, but it's popular here to watch fireworks shows at Victoria Harbor. Who would watch TV at home? It's funny!"
Lou Xiao'e struck disdainfully.
"Forehead!"
This made Zhang Zhonghua a little embarrassed, and then he remembered that in this era, there was no habit of watching the Spring Festival Gala, and he seemed to be out of his mind.
"And there are very few TV users in Southeast Asia now. Who will watch your Spring Festival Gala!"
