Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 914 New City

  From the signing of the Plaza Accord and the appreciation of the yen, some media that reported Yang Chen's investment failures suddenly lost their voices.

   The villain tricks of the major consortiums in the island country didn't work out, and Yang Chen couldn't get rid of them at all. Although the major consortiums were unhappy, they didn't want to have too much relationship with Yang Chen.

   Yang Chen now has the backing of Britain. The so-called dead camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that Britain and the United States sometimes wear the same pair of pants. It is impossible for the island country government to deliberately go to trouble Yang Chen because of normal business transactions.

   You must know that the economy of island countries depends to a large extent on exports. If you don’t follow the rules, you must first have the strength to follow the rules.

  Laomei in later generations will punish whoever they want to fight, and whoever they want to punish.

  The island country, at best, can only bully South Korea.

   In two months, the yen appreciated by more than 20%.

  According to the book value alone, Yang Chen has made a net profit of more than 20 billion US dollars in the past two months.

   The speed of the reversal of things is comparable to a roller coaster, which made the media who had been in trouble before were slapped hard.

  Two months

   more than 20 billion US dollars,

   Converted to Hong Kong dollars, it is a small 200 billion!

  The speed of making money can catch up with the money printing machine.

   As Yang Chen's base camp, Xiangjiang Media is naturally one-sided in praise, and some bigwigs who have Yang Chen's phone call, one or two congratulations constantly.

   There are quite a few people who didn't listen to Yang Chen's opinion at the beginning, and now seeing Yang Chen making money, they feel regretful and want to slap him.

Among them is Li Chaoren. In the past two years, Li Chaoren has devoted all his energy to Hutchison Whampoa. Since Yang Chen holds a lot of shares in Hutchison Whampoa and Cheung Kong Industrial, Li Chaoren has spent the past two years in Hutchison Whampoa. , has been secretly absorbing the stocks of its two companies.

There is no way, Yang Chen's method of dealing with Yihe is vivid in his mind, Li Chaoren is truly frightened, he is afraid that that day, the foundation that he has worked so hard to create, the Hutchison Whampoa that he finally obtained, will suddenly become someone else. industry.

   So Li Chaoren, who has always been cautious, turned all the money in his hand into the stock of his own company.

  At the beginning, Li Chaoren didn't pay much attention to Yang Chen's suggestion to invest in the island country, or he didn't have so much energy to consider other things.

  Li Chaoren's character has always been very cautious, especially in business investment, he listens to other people's suggestions, but if he wants to act, he will definitely understand it carefully in advance.

   If he doesn't understand, he won't touch it even if it makes money.

   However, seeing how much Yang Chen made all of a sudden, Li Chaoren, like everyone else, was jealous.

  Most of the rich in Xiangjiang basically started from scratch in their early years, and the foundation they have worked hard for most of their lives, in the end, they can’t even keep up with other people’s fractions.

   I have to say that sometimes, people are more irritated than people.

   The Oriental Daily, one of the best in Hong Kong, recently listed the worth statistics of the top ten Chinese rich people in Hong Kong (except Yang Chen).

   In the end, the big guy discovered that the so-called top ten richest people, all of them are worth all together, they are not worth the gains of Yang Chen in the past two months.

  Once the report of the Oriental Daily came out, it completely detonated the public opinion of the whole society. There is no way. Numbers are the most intuitive, and even ordinary people at the bottom can see it at a glance.

  The top ten richest people in Xiangjiang can't even win against Yang Chen alone. Is there anything more convincing and intuitive than this?

   Being disturbed by a group of people, Yang Chen couldn't afford it, so he could only choose to hide. After two or three months, it was time to leave for Australia.

   On this trip, Yang Chen brought Xue Yufei's three daughters with him.

  Australia in November is the season of tourism.

Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, and the seasonal time difference is completely different from that of Xiangjiang. Australia is spring, summer, autumn and winter, spring from September to November, summer from December to February, autumn from March to May, and winter from June to August. .

  It is hard to imagine that Australia is only a three or four hour flight away from Xiangjiang, but the seasons on both sides are completely different.

   Yang Chen and his party took two special planes to Newport in the Northern Territory.

   Not far from Xingang, it is a modern city that has begun to take shape. The scale of Xincheng is very small, and it cannot even reach the standards of fourth- and fifth-tier inland cities in later generations.

   However, Yang Chen is not in a hurry.

  The foundation of the new city has now been laid. In terms of future population, Yang Chen plans to concentrate at least one third, or even half, of Chinese immigrants here.

   Yang Chen has high expectations for the new city, and strives to build it into an international big city after 20 years, making it the second Xiangjiang.

  Except the financial aspect, of course.

  The reason why Xiangjiang can become a financial center in Asia is mainly due to its unique environment and advantages, as well as the resources of more than one billion people on the mainland.

  New Town has no such resources, and the only thing it can rely on is the rich mineral resources in the Northern Territory.

  Twenty years to build an international metropolis, this idea sounds a bit wishful thinking, but as the saying goes, it is always good to have a dream, in case it comes true one day...

  International city, also known as "intercontinental city".

   In other words, international cities are among the best on all continents. The rigid indicators of international cities in Asia, America, and Europe are too high, not to mention first-tier, second-tier, and new towns may not be able to match in 20 years.

   However, it is different in Australia.

   As a country that monopolizes one continent, as long as it kills the number one city in Australia, it can become an international metropolis.

  The city with the strongest economy in Australia is located on the southeastern coast of Australia, Sydney, the capital of New South Wales.

  Sydney is the largest and most populous city in Australia. In later generations, the international standard for an international city is to have a population of five million and a GDP of $300 billion.

   Although Sydney is known as an international city and the largest city in Australia, it has only passed the pass line and belongs to the bottom of the international city.

In terms of population, it is difficult to say. Australia will take restrictions on Chinese immigrants in the future. He can't guarantee whether the new city will reach 5 million people in the future. The only thing he can do is to encourage the first batch of Chinese immigrants to have children. .

Australia has a small population, and family planning and other things will never appear on the land of Australia. In the past 20 years, according to the idea of ​​​​Chinese people have more children and more grandchildren, they have worked hard to create a few million, and the population problem can be solved. solved.

   As for the standard of $300 billion GDP

   Twenty years is not enough, then thirty or forty years will be fine.
