Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

In fact, Mr. Bao originally planned to build 100 five-star hotels, but he just didn’t want to scare Michael Kadoorie. After all, he had been to mainland China many times, and of course he knew the living standards and economic conditions of the mainland people at this time. Five-star

Hotels are a luxury in any country in the world.

Based on the current economic index of mainland China, it is estimated that it will be difficult to build 50 hotels, let alone 5. It is very easy to build, as long as you invest money. But if you want the hotel to be profitable, it needs to be supported by consumption.

Heiyun Group can only adopt a holding model in the future, which means that no one will own shares except Bao Zixuan's descendants. So what will Heiyun do with so many outstanding employees? Owning Hutchison Whampoa's stocks is a good choice

.

But if you want Hutchison Whampoa's stock to be valuable, you must produce performance that convinces the market. Bao, the richest man, knows the future development of mainland China. Build a Hutchison Whampoa in every municipality, provincial capital, central and key city

The square becomes very necessary.

Fortunately, he had seen some big markets and was a super tycoon himself. Michael Kadoorie reacted quickly and said very seriously: "Sheng Bao, although it is a little rude, but are you serious!"

At present, the Michael-Kadoorie family does not have many five-star hotels. You must know that their family has been in business for nearly a century. Is it really because of lack of courage and courage that the family has not developed rapidly enough.

Bao Zixuan said very seriously: "We are talking about business and cooperation now; of course we are very serious. You know my temper. I rarely joke, let alone this kind of joke.

Hearing the other party's affirmative answer, Michael Kadoorie's mind was a little short-circuited. Mainland China is developing very fast, but only a few cities are doing well. In many places, let alone ten or even twenty years, they cannot support it.

The spending power of a five-star hotel. Huo Yingdong was already very ambitious in building a five-star hotel in Yangcheng. Unexpectedly, Bao, the richest man, was even more ruthless and wanted to build 50 of them.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on Michael Kadoorie. After all, there is currently only one hotel recognized as a five-star hotel in Mainland China, and that is the White Swan in Sheep Farm. Others are still under planning. They don’t even dare to design, and they are worried about investment.

It's all in vain. After all, except for Bao, the richest man, no one can see the future. Of course, they don't know what kind of miracles the future development of China mainland will create.

In the previous life, until the 1990s, there were only three five-star hotels in the entire Chinese mainland; therefore, Bao Zixuan’s plan cannot be described as grand. As a hotel professional, Michael Kadoorie is still very familiar with hotel plans in various countries around the world.

I don’t know everything about how to build a five-star hotel, but I do know a rough idea.

Michael Kadoorie: "Sheng Bao, this plan is really crazy. 50 five-star hotels require a huge amount of funds. If something happens, the entire Kadoorie family may cease to exist. So can you agree with me?"

Please introduce it in detail, otherwise it will be really difficult to convince yourself and your family!"

Bao Zixuan knew that he took it for granted. After all, in this era, the wealthy in Hong Kong, especially the foreign wealthy, felt that mainland China was poor and backward. For super luxury goods such as five-star hotels, few people dared to try it.

In fact, Mr. Bao didn’t want to launch such a big project so quickly. Many things require a process. But now the folk customs are simple and there will be no conflicts in the demolition work. As we enter the 21st century, people’s ideas have increased; they want to plan and record in the city center

Huangpu Square will definitely be very difficult!

Moreover, the cost of land acquisition for Hyundai is almost negligible, and at most it is some construction costs. This banking crisis in Hong Kong is definitely a good opportunity. When the matter is over, the deposits of Heiyun Bank will inevitably increase.

Moreover, the investment is in the name of Hutchison Whampoa. Heiyun employees are all wealthy owners. If they are allowed to invest in Heiyun Group without giving the company shares, then it is no different from free prostitution. But the investment is in the name of Hutchison Whampoa.

, there will be no problem. Even if he makes a lot of money, Li Chaoren will also benefit.

But what the heck, if Li Chaoren wants to keep his shares, he must take out the money. In this way, he can make the plate bigger, and the future benefits will inevitably increase. If the other party is not willing to continue investing, he can dilute the shares according to the investment scale.

Without money, no one will take you to play.

Michael Kadoorie mentioned the family, and it seems that this matter has exceeded the scope of his authorization.

Although his father, Laurence Kadoorie, is nearly 90 years old, he is still alive after all. Moreover, the old man is still very energetic. It is said that he was still able to work before his death in 1993. He is not confused at all. Although he has handed over the management of the company to

I have a son, but with such a large-scale investment, I must seek the father’s opinion.

One bad move would bring the entire Kadoorie family into the abyss. Michael Kadoorie didn't dare to make the decision without authorization. The previous investment scale was not large, and the business reputation of the richest man was very good. In addition, even if he lost money, it wouldn't matter much.

, the Kadoorie family can still afford it. But this time it is 50 five-star hotels. Even though the labor on Huaxia Avenue is cheap, the material cost is not low.

For five-star hotels, many materials cannot be produced in mainland China at present and must be transported from abroad. The customs duties and transportation costs alone are a considerable expense.

Bao Zixuan: “I don’t know if Mi Gao has heard of the concept of CBD.”

The central business district, or CBD for short, refers to the area where major business activities take place in a country or city. The concept first emerged in the United States in 1923, when it was defined as a "place of business gathering." Subsequently, the content of CBD continued to develop and enrich.

Become the economic development center of a city, a region or even a country.

Generally speaking, CBD is located in the center of the city, which highly concentrates the city's economic, technological and cultural forces. As the core of the city, it should have multiple functions such as finance, trade, services, exhibitions, consultation, etc., and be equipped with complete municipal transportation and

Communication conditions.

For a Jew, and a Jew who is engaged in hotel management, of course he knows about CBD. Could it be that Bao Zixuan wants to build CBD in 50 major cities in mainland China? The amount of funds required is an astronomical amount, which is simply unimaginable.

Michael Kadoorie: "Sheng Bao wants to build central business districts in 50 cities in China, which is an astronomical sum. And with the current economic development in mainland China, except for Kyoto and Shanghai, there seems to be no such city.

It has the strength to build a central business district. Even the two cities with the largest economies in mainland China are very reluctant."

"If CBD was built in these two places in the past, the Kadoorie family could still consider it. The risks in other places are too great."

It would be the same for anyone. If Bao Zixuan announced the construction of 50 central business districts in mainland China, everyone would probably think that he is crazy or that he has money and nowhere to spend it.

However, the development speed of China mainland is actually something ordinary people can imagine.

Bao Zixuan: "I have this plan and am ready to implement it. If the Kadoorie family does not want to take too many risks, then Hutchison Whampoa can completely fund the construction of the hotel. Then the Peninsula Hotel can be purchased if it feels suitable.

Or contract operation. But at that time, we had to compete with other hotels. After all, we are all businessmen, friendship is friendship, and maximizing profits is the basis of survival."

This guy has never made any mistakes in his investment. He just invested in a hotel, and Hutchison Whampoa needed to provide other supporting facilities. Bao Bao was the biggest investor, and the investment scale of the Kadoorie family was not as large as expected. Moreover, all hotels are not

Built in one go.

It's just an opportunity for people to think of you. If you refuse this time, they won't come to you for any good things next time.

Michael Kadoorie said very firmly: "If you dare to invest, of course I dare to do it. What's the use of putting money in the bank? In the early stage, we will build two in Shanghai and Kyoto. How do you feel?"

"I'll raise funds right away, and I promise I won't embarrass you."

Unexpectedly, the old boy was quite happy. There is something commendable about Jewish business.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "You will never regret your choice today, and your future investment will definitely bring high returns."

So the two settled the matter, and the Kadoorie family was responsible for investing in the plazas and hotels built by Hutchison Whampoa in Mainland China.

Decades later, the Kadoorie family owns more than 100 five-star hotels in mainland China; its annual revenue reaches nearly 10 billion US dollars, but it is definitely a cash monster.

The waiter who made tea for the two tycoons later wrote a novel about the meeting between the two. Although he could not understand what the two were talking about, it was not difficult to see from the boss's expression that he was shocked by the richest man Bao.

It's very big. An extremely grand plan, which makes the boss who is used to big scenes a little overwhelmed.

I don’t know whether it was due to trust or the businessman’s keen sense of smell. Mr. Kadoorie agreed to the Bao Zixuan plan and decided to join. It wasn’t until a few months later that I found out that the two of them were originally negotiating for the Hutchison Plaza and the supporting hotel project.

When the economy of mainland China was not very ideal, Bao Shaofou dared to invest so much. It can only be said that we can only know what will happen tomorrow, but he can see through the development of the next few decades. This may be the difference between people.

gap.

The sales volume of the new book was very good when it was launched. Even Mr. Bao and Michael Kadoorie each bought a copy as a kind of memory and souvenir.
