Reinventing the Millennium

Bidding is a game.

The game is roll.

How to roll?

price.

I can't believe it at all when you say a quote.

Even if I tell you a quotation, you won’t believe it at all.

In order to win, both parties can only guess the price in the other party's hands and quote as high as possible.

Fang Zhuo originally thought that 4 billion was a sure number, but now as doubts sprouted in his heart, he felt that it was unstable.

If the Li family's growth is really what they think it is, calm on the surface but menacing in the dark, then they will definitely pay a price that is sure to win.

Because, even if there is a tacit understanding between Hong Kong businessmen, Cheung Kong cannot be sure at what price Yongke will acquire the land, and they judge that Yongke will pay a price that is bound to win. Therefore, Cheung Kong is bound to win, and it is bound to win.

Therefore, Fang Zhuo was confused.

Simply guessing who your opponent is will not help you win the round. You must come up with a winning price.

How much does the Li family think they will pay?

How much will they add to this price?

How much should you pay in the end?

If you can't guess Changshi's intention, you will definitely feel unhappy if you lose this game.

If you guessed Changshi's intention and lost this game, you would be doubly unhappy!

There are less than three days left, and a number needs to be determined urgently. This is really... pure guessing!

Guess what the courage of Changshi, Zhou Kaixuan and the Li family is.

Guess how bold the richest man in China is.

Jidong lost five dollars, and Changshi must be holding back his energy to get back a win. So how many chips do he need to put in to match the momentum of the Li family?

On March 13, Fang Zhuo called Liu Suyi to his president’s office.

He informed: "40 is no longer safe, let's re-negotiate the price."

Liu Suyi was shocked: "Huh?"

Fang Zhuo was speechless, waiting for the quotation and planning to refer to it.

Liu Suyi couldn't help but swallowed and stammered: "Fang, Mr. Fang, 4 billion is already very high. We have measured the price of this land repeatedly. This is just the land price. The price of subsequent development is also very high. This, this..."

Fang Zhuoyi frowned: "Don't talk nonsense. If you are asked to repay, you will repay."

Liu Suyi's face was really sweating.

Mr. Fang, what is going on? What kind of posture is this?

Liu Suyi was even a little panicked: "Well, I'll do the math, I'll do the math again, no, Mr. Fang, the situation is different now. There is a subway in Zhuyuan that needs to be repaired, and I heard that housing prices have to be regulated again this year. This fund is occupied It’s still quite troublesome.”

Regulate house prices? Good news.

Does the subway need to be repaired? Good news.

Fang Zhuo knew this, and also knew that this was Liu Suyi's tactful persuasion at this moment. He said with a stern face: "You tell me a number, I know it in my heart."

The problem is that Liu Suyi doesn't know very well. The land in the Zhuyuan Business District is divided into two parts, intended for commercial and residential use. The cost of raising funds, the cost of investment and construction, the cost of time backlog... and other factors must be calculated clearly.

But it is impossible to completely calculate it. This land is affected by the time factor. Now the authorities are regulating housing prices. If the increase slows down, the impact will still be quite large.

Moreover, in the current situation, if I say this number, does it also mean that I will have to take responsibility for things that go wrong in the future?

The more Liu Suyi thought about it, the more sweat became on his face.

He knew that Mr. Fang had a plan to reorganize Yongke. If he took the responsibility, would the reorganized company kick him out?

Would someone like Mr. Fang show mercy to him?

Liu Suyi didn't think so. There were facts before him. Mr. Fang was the one who stepped in with the front foot, and he took over the project with his back foot. How could he be merciful to him?

Once Yongke completes the reorganization and Mr. Fang still maintains control, what's the point of being dismissed because he made a mistake and can only be a director?

Fang Zhuo thought Liu Suyi was calculating numbers and waited patiently.

Liu Suyi suddenly made an offer: "Mr. Fang, if it doesn't work out, we'll offer 5 billion. I don't believe anyone can exceed this price! We have to win the land even if we don't make money!"

Fang Zhuo was stunned for a moment, calculated in his mind, and scolded with a smile: "It won't make any money if you work hard. Well, you are the number one philanthropist in the real estate industry."

Liu Suyi had a stern look on his face, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Mr. Fang, what's going on? Really, our 4 billion is already a lot."

"Something has changed." Fang Zhuo narrowed his eyes, "I'm afraid there is someone who is really determined to win this land, and he wants to overwhelm us by the way."

Liu Suyi was confused.

But I knew that Mr. Fang must have inside information.

He thought about it for a long time and decided that he would be a fool today. You can ask whatever you want, but I will lose if you bid.

Fang Zhuo didn't know that Liu Suyi had thought so much. He thought about it but still couldn't decide on a price.

This no longer depends on the market.

"You can ask someone to collect the prices for land acquired by the Li family in China, compare it with the prevailing opinions at the time, and see what patterns there are." Fang Zhuo asked Liu Suyi, still wanting some reference.

Liu Suyi nodded and immediately found someone to handle this matter.

He himself tried a few more words, but he didn't try to find out what Mr. Fang's inside information was.

Near noon, the bidding records of Cheung Kong and Hutchison Whampoa in the Mainland were transmitted. The pattern is...

irregular.

Some are high, some are low, but overall they are on the lower side. The Li family receives preferential treatment in the mainland.

This does not help the judgment of this bid.

Liu Suyi was adhering to the attitude of never talking about the price, and could clearly feel that Mr. Fang was in a bad mood.

He said sincerely: "Mr. Fang, it's up to you to decide the price. If it's more or less, we don't have a problem. If you make less this time, make more next time. Didn't you say that before? No matter how much or how little you make, you still make money, can Yongke still drink the northwest wind under your control?"

Fang Zhuo put down the quotation record in his hand and glanced at Liu Suyi: "I think Mr. Liu looks like a president."

Liu Suyi raised his eyebrows with joy and coughed: "Mr. Fang, we just have to pay attention to the capital chain. Everything in Zhuyuan is good, the location is good, the transportation is good, but the project turnover is slow, and there is a commercial center, Yongke still has Be cautious.”

Fang Zhuo lit a cigarette and while smoking, he was thinking about 2-3 and 2-4 in Zhuyuan Business District.

This land involves the planning of a subway interchange hub, and there is a certain risk of construction delays. Because there was movement on Line 3 in Shanghai last year, construction has been extremely cautious this year.

From the perspective of land prices, the later you sell, the higher the profit will be, but for the company, it will also cause capital accumulation.

The same amount of money was used to acquire other land and the houses were sold out. Before construction started here, the capital chain was not running smoothly enough.

In other words, for a project of this scale, if you want to cover the ground, you must have the strength to cover it.

Does Yongke have this kind of strength?

reluctantly.

Because Fang Zhuo can't lose all his blood here, he still has to keep taking care of the ice core. Compared with real estate, it is a big money-burning job, and the future production lines will only become more and more expensive.

Has this factor been taken into account by your opponents?

Fang Zhuo was slightly distracted, as if he saw his opponent comprehensively analyzing his situation in the room.

Ah Zhou, Ms. Zhou, is it you?

Regardless of whether it is you or not, it is recognized as you.

Fang Zhuo picked up his phone and began to contact Ding Lei from NetEase, and then Zhang Chaoyang, the head of the third portal.

Sina, NetEase, Sohu.

Today, half of China’s Internet.

After communicating with Fang Zhuo, he first determined that whether he could win the land or not, he would be able to send a gift to Ms. Zhou's TOM Network.

As for the trend of the Internet this year, as the head of Sina, what he knows is that the above-mentioned efforts must be made in industry self-discipline and public supervision, which involves the control trend of the wireless value-added market.

In the wireless value-added market, TOM Network is first and Sina is second. One of the reasons why the former has a firm grip on the market share is that they rarely set restrictions on terminal content, which is why they have continued to grow wildly.

It is rumored that TOM.com has plans to go public in Hong Kong this year.

This company's financial performance must be very good, but it only relies on the wireless value-added market and its business is too single. This is a fatal weakness.

According to the above meaning, as a representative of China's Internet industry, since the portal website is involved in the wireless value-added market, it must set an example.

Originally, this model might be implemented after the middle of the year.

Now, Fang Zhuo communicates directly with the other two leaders and pushes it forward together. This one is called the "Integrity and Self-Discipline Alliance" of the three major portals in China's Internet industry, which will conduct in-depth discussions on my country's wireless information Self-regulatory work in service industries.

As for whether this will become a sign of market trends and whether it will affect another Xiangjiang company with a single business that wants to be listed, what does that have to do with the head of Sina?

The communication between the three leaders ended.

Zhang Chaoyang asked the last question on the phone: "Mr. Fang, I see your blog is quite prosperous. Would you mind if Sohu also has a look at it?"

"Hahaha, Mr. Zhang also knows about the blog? It's quite fun. Of course I don't mind. We are actually trying it and are still thinking about the profit direction of this business." Fang Zhuo was a little surprised, "Mr. Zhang, you also know that purely relying on It’s hard to run healthy advertising.”

Of course Zhang Chaoyang knows, because that is the old way of portal websites.

He hung up the phone and answered his doubts. It turned out that Fang Zhuozhen hadn't seen the message he left on his blog.

Fang Zhuo's actions that started from his heart ended.

He called Liu Suyi in again, who was going to the canteen.

"Mr. Liu, our current quotation is 4 billion."

Liu Suyi nodded.

"The opponent's intentions are unknown. This quotation can only be based on thoughts and guesses. There is no reference at all." Fang Zhuo continued, "In this way, you will make six more bids, and an extra 100 million will be added to each bid. I will bid based on my mood when bidding. "

Liu Suyi: "..."

When someone gets a tender document, you take a bunch of it and submit it...

40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46.

Seven bids, seven prices.

Liu Suyi felt that Mr. Fang was more or less a little nervous.

"Mr. Fang, this is a great idea!" He praised loudly, "When we get to the bidding site, we will choose one based on their reactions."

"When the time comes, you go and vote. If you lose, you will be laughable and generous, but if you win, you will be resourceful." Fang Zhuo glanced at him.

Liu Suyi sneered.

He had no experience in bidding for such large sums before, so he just drank the leftovers. Now it sounds like money is just a number, and only those who really make the decision know the weight.

"That's it. We'll know the result on the 15th, not even two days." Fang Zhuo has calmed down. There is just a piece of land on the left and right. Anyway, the words he said about the Li family's business were not his own.

Liu Suyi left in a hurry.

Fang Zhuo sat in the office and slowly weighed the bid, and also speculated on the opponent behind the scenes.

In this way, using the famous Hong Kong business tycoon to paralyze myself, I don't know whether it is the Li family's face that is greater or my own face.

Lao Qiu and Brother Zheng, you can't protect me anymore, it's useless, and you almost misled me.

Fang Zhuo complained half-jokingly in his heart.

He continued to read the news and information related to this bidding, mainly considering the capital chain pressure brought by Zhuyuan Business District and surrounding road administration.

In the evening, news came from Liu Suyi that six tenders with different prices had been prepared.

In this case, we will find out the day after tomorrow.

Fang Zhuo reviewed the information one last time and looked at the list of seven companies bidding this time.

Yongke, Cheung Kong, China Resources, Swire, Sun Hung Kai, Kerry Properties, Bailian.

How many of them have a tacit understanding, and how many of them are kept in the dark?

Have the land prices of RMB 3-3.5 billion circulating in the market really fooled others?

Fang Zhuo pinched the list and suddenly felt something in his heart. He looked again at Bailian Group, which is generally considered to be "accompanying the prince to study". If there are people who are still immersed in judging the price range of 30-35, it must be Bailian Group, which was just established last year.

It is a local state-owned enterprise reorganized last year.

Well, the bidding for Zhuyuan Business District this time is 2-3 and 2-4. It is divided into north and south parts by Century Avenue.

North and south, two blocks, capital chain, state-owned assets background.

Fang Zhuo directly called Zheng Danrui’s number.

He called him affectionately: "Brother Zheng, I have something to ask you for help."

Zheng Danrui replied steadily: "Mr. Fang, do you think the company has encountered any problems?"

"It's like this, Brother Zheng, we are bound to win Zhuyuan this time. It must have a commercial center in the plan. Our Yongke development will definitely have no problem. I am worried that it will not be easy for us to find brands to settle in." Fang Zhuo said slowly, "The Bailian Group that is bidding this time doesn't have major supermarkets under its name? Brother Zheng, Zhang Xinsheng from Bailian, can you say hello? I know you."

Zheng Danrui was silent for a few seconds: "Okay."

He sensed something different.

Recently, to avoid suspicion, Zheng Danrui conveyed some matters through Qiu Di. Now, as the bid opening was approaching, a call came directly from him, mentioning the opponent in the bidding, probably because he wanted to take some action.

Zheng Danrui made a decision in his mind.

call ended.

Fang Zhuo asked his assistant to find out about the situation of Bailian Group and consider how to deal with Zhang Xinsheng, the head of Shanghai's new business giant.

The bid will be opened the day after tomorrow, and it is impossible to cooperate now.

However, once the bid is won, cooperation between the two parties may not be impossible.

Bailian Group has just been listed and is still integrating resources and establishing its core. However, no matter what, they have great ideas about commercial real estate, so they actively participated in this bidding.

Bailian will definitely lose this time, because the bid for state-owned assets will not soar.

But I can make it only half a loss.

Can losing half still count as a loss?

With such a strong alliance, each can get what it needs, and the pressure on the capital chain can be greatly alleviated, which will not delay the next development of Yongke.

The morning of the 15th, the day after tomorrow.

You have a tacit understanding with Hong Kong businessmen across the river, and I have local brothers and sisters.

Let’s all have a good time to see each other.
