Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 659 Universal Twin Towers

…

"Boss, after nearly four months of construction bidding, a total of two design schemes have been reserved. They are the 'dragon-shaped scheme' from SOM architectural design firm, and the 'zun-shaped scheme' from Beijing Architectural Design and Research Institute. "

"SOM Architectural Design Office's 'dragon-shaped plan' adopts a spiral design with a total height of 633 meters and a main building height of 582 meters, with a total of 119 floors, 6 floors of podiums, and 6 floors of basements. In the case of the twin tower design , the two buildings add up to a total of 864,783 square meters. The total construction investment is 10.8 billion Chinese dollars.”

"The 'Zun Type Plan' of the Beijing Architectural Design and Research Institute has a total construction area of ​​887,000 square meters, including 724,000 square meters above ground and 163,000 square meters underground. Six floors, 7 floors underground. The total investment of the building is 9.8 billion Chinese dollars.”

Guo Shouyun looked at the beautiful renderings in the two photos. The dragon-shaped plan is similar to the later-generation Magic Capital Center Building, and the respect-shaped plan is similar to the headquarters building invested by Beijing CITIC Group. However, they are all single-family buildings, and Guo Shouyun here is a stacked 'Twin Towers'.

"The plan is really good, and the renderings are very beautiful, but it's too high!" Guo Shouyun put down the information and said after a moment of thought.

"Boss, according to the information we have received, the Modu World Financial Center has decided to increase the height of the building to 492 meters. If we lower the height, we may lose the opportunity to compete for the reputation of the world's tallest building." Xing Zhiping advised.

"The tallest building in the world?"

Guo Shouyun shook his head. In a few months, the gang of local tyrants in the Middle East will start the construction of the 'Burj Khalifa', and they will pile up the height to 'insane' meters. Therefore, whether it is the "Dragon-shaped Plan" of SOM Architectural Design Office or the "Zun-shaped Plan" of the Beijing Architectural Design and Research Institute, it is necessary to say "goodbye" to the "world's tallest building".

"Look, this is the information I just got."

"Burj Dubai?"

After taking a look at the information in Guo Shouyun's hand, Xing Zhiping's face showed a look of surprise.

"The Dubai government intends to expand tourism beyond the oil industry, and intends to attract global attention by building the 'world's tallest building'. The Burj Khalifa was passed under such a plan. And in order to avoid being overtaken by latecomers, they The design requirements for the Burj Khalifa are as high as possible. In terms of current engineering technology, the height of the Burj Khalifa is 700 meters or even more than 800 meters. The Dubai government, which has abundant oil resources, also has enough funds to support it. such a construction.”

After a pause, Guo Shouyun looked directly at Xing Zhiping, "But we are different from Dubai. The construction of the Twin Towers by the Global Fund requires both a sensational effect and a balance of economic interests. If the height of the Twin Towers is set below 460 meters , the height of 88 floors, the investment amount will be cut in half, while the construction area will only drop by 164,200 square meters. In addition, although our height is not as high as the Modu World Financial Center, it is also the second tallest building in China, and we are still twins Tower. The shock and sensational effects are not weak.”

Xing Zhiping and Tang Wenfang looked at each other, and they clearly remembered that when Guo Shouyun talked to them about the Twin Towers project in Beijing, he also swore to make it the tallest building in the world. It's only been half a year, how could it have changed? Is it really because the Burj Khalifa is too difficult to surpass?

Guo Shouyun noticed the changes in the expressions of the two, and could somewhat guess what they were thinking.

Although there are factors such as the difficulty of surpassing the Burj Khalifa and the balance of economic and practical value to reduce the total investment of the 'Jingcheng Twin Towers' project, the core reason is the issue of money.

Since the decision to separate public and private, he has been able to use funds from his own investments, mainly income from writing books; copyright income from novel adaptations of movies; design fee sharing income, such as the iPodookPro shape designed for Apple; and salary income, as an Apple director There are more than a dozen positions such as the chairman of the bureau and the chairman of the ruby ​​board of directors, all of which have annual salaries and dividends, which add up to an annual income of tens of millions of dollars; and investment income, when the above income is not temporarily used, it will be put into some lower-risk positions in bond funds. In the case of not counting the black income of the internal defense force, he can earn about 500 million to 600 million US dollars a year through these channels.

After tax cuts in various ways, about 400 million US dollars can be used for investment.

This part of the money, in addition to maintaining family expenses, can be used to invest about 350 million US dollars in a year.

350 million US dollars is equivalent to about 2.7 billion Chinese currency at the current exchange rate. Although it looks a lot, compared to Guo Shouyun's series of investment plans, these money can only be used to revitalize Delong's loss-making assets.

As for Global Real Estate and Global Fund, the main investment is the US$4 billion he borrowed from Standard Chartered Bank with Hanhua Holdings, and the US$500 million that he privately invested in previous years. Now, after purchasing 58,000 sets of commercial housing and 2.187 million square meters of commercial real estate, about 60% of the money has been spent, and the remaining 40%, or US$1.8 billion.

In 2004, the housing price in the urban area of ​​Beijing was around 5,000 Chinese dollars. Because of the country's suppression of housing prices and the fact that the World Style Garden is far away from Xiaotun Road in Fengtai District, although it is not a suburb, its geographical location is relatively remote, so the housing price is low, only about 3,000 Chinese dollars.

In the housing price of one square meter, the land fee, preliminary engineering fee, construction and installation project fee, municipal public facility fee, management fee, and various miscellaneous fees are added together, accounting for about 70% of the housing price. That is to say, the total investment of Global Real Estate in the construction of Qingye Mansion, White Deer Mansion, Maple Leaf Mansion and Shoushan Mansion is 88.34 billion Chinese dollars, equivalent to 10.42 billion US dollars.

Because the construction period is divided into five years, it means that only 2.08 billion US dollars need to be invested in one year. And because the real estate investment model is basically 30% of its own funds, and the remaining 70% relies on bank loans and bonds, the investment in the first year has dropped to 625 million US dollars.

If the Unicorn Plaza is included, the initial capital required for the entire project this year is $700 million.

As for the 'Jingcheng Twin Towers' project, the proportion of construction costs is higher. However, if the height is set below 460 meters, the construction funds of the entire project will be maintained at about 5 billion Chinese coins. The three-year construction period means that only about 1 billion Chinese coins need to be invested in the first year to be able to leverage. the entire project.

But this year, there are at least 5 unfinished buildings under the Global Fund, a commercial complex renovation project of about 1.2 million square meters, and Guo Shouyun's tourism + real estate comprehensive development project in Yunnan Province.

The US$1.8 billion loan reserved by Global Real Estate and Global Fund is not exhausted, but only US$200 million to US$300 million can be left as liquidity for risk prevention.

As for the second batch of investment by Global Real Estate and Global Fund next year, in addition to hoping that their revenue can be strong, they can only continue to mortgage the stocks in the hands of Hanhua Trust.

If it doesn't work, sell the small-sized off-plan houses of Qingye Mansion, White Deer Mansion, Maple Leaf Mansion and Shoushan Mansion. But this is the last resort.

Thinking about Guo Shouyun, he feels a little embarrassed now! There are more than ten giant companies under his hands, but the liquidity in his hands is not enough.

"If I had known this earlier, I should have cashed out a sum of money when LinkedIn went public." Guo Shouyun said.

For more interests in the future, but also to maintain his absolute controlling position in the company. After LinkedIn executives and investment institutions cashed out half of the equity, he passed up the opportunity, so he didn't get any income from the stock market.

"Boss, if we revise the plan, what about Huaxia Construction Corporation...?" Xing Zhiping said.

"I'll tell them myself."

Seeing that the big boss had a firm attitude, Xing Zhiping didn't say anything. I just feel a little pity. During this time, he was intent on making the world's tallest building a reality in his own hands. However, thinking of the rich Middle Eastern tyrants, he also knew that this idea was basically impossible.

"Also, take a look at these two documents!"

"Tuniu Tourism Development Plan?"

"Master Plan for Real Estate Development in Yunnan Province?"

The two of them took over to see the covers of the two documents in their hands~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and they all showed a surprised look.

"Tuniu Tourism Group is a company established after I took over Delong's tourism assets. At present, it has three subsidiaries: Tuniu Tourism, Tuniu Park and Tuniu Hotel. Tuniu Tourism is divided into online websites and offline outlets. As well as three business departments of passenger cars; Tuniu Park is mainly engaged in the development and maintenance of tourist attractions; Tuniu Hotel, as its name implies, is a hotel investment.”

"After receiving the assets of Delong, the online website part of Tuniu Travel Company is mainly the website built by the original Delong Travel Group, but it is still very simple. I have instructed people to re-develop it according to the model of Ctrip Travel. Construction of a call center in Nantong, Jiangsu Province; offline outlets, after taking over the Great Western Tourism Company, currently has 579 stores in major first-, second- and third-tier cities across the country; the bus department is integrating the international bus company of Shancheng Industrial and the Great Western Tourism Company. After the company's passenger car department, it currently has 327 tourist buses."

"Tuniu Park currently owns three assets: Pengcheng 'Minsk Aircraft Carrier Theme Park', Xinjiang Kanas Lake Scenic Area and Turpan Grape Valley Scenic Area; it is developing Jinggang Mountain and Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi Province with the local scenic spot management department. , and the Huangguoshu Scenic Spot in Gui Province.”

"At present, there are mainly two Tuniu hotels, namely Tunhe Hotel and Meihuada Hotel under the former Delong. They are four-star and three-star respectively. According to the plan, Tuniu Hotel will be divided into five levels. There are also five different brands, namely Tuniu Five-star Hotel, Tuniu Four-star Hotel, Tuniu Three-star Hotel, Tuniu Resort Hotel and Tuniu Hotel. Except Tuniu Hotel is a budget hotel, that is, an express hotel, the rest of the Corresponding to star and service standards.”
