Reborn as a Hong Kong Tycoon

Chapter 588 The Mistakes of the Bodyguards (Two in One)

"I didn't invest with Mr. Lin, I don't know what to do."

Iwasaki Mineryu's words are sincere. He has made several futures investments alone, but each time he lost money. He is not a fool, and he doesn't know that he is not that material.

Now, although I know that Lin Baicheng wants to be long on gold futures, the problem is that buying and selling must be at the right time, otherwise what was originally profitable may turn into a loss, and no matter how bad it is, it will make a lot less money.

Therefore, if Iwasaki Mineryu is really allowed to invest in gold futures by himself, his confidence is really not very high.

In the final analysis, it was because Lin Baicheng led Iwasaki Mineryu to make so much money from gold futures that Iwasaki Mineryu could not forget and give up, and wanted to make money from this market.

"all the same."

Lin Baicheng waved his hands after listening.I was not proud of Mineryu Iwasaki's compliment.

After looking at the others, Lin Baicheng said: "You don't need to make a decision now. It happens that there will be no transactions in the market for the next few days, so you have plenty of time to think about it. However, in order to leave enough time for capital turnover, everyone's best Give me an answer the day after tomorrow, and there will be two days for everyone to think about it."

"Two days is enough."

Although he already had a plan in his heart, Bao Yugang didn't say it right away, so as not to affect others.

Huo Yingdong also said: "Let's take some time to have afternoon tea together in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. At that time, everyone will express their own ideas and talk about the details by the way."

"fair enough."

Guo Henian had no objection.

Zheng Yudong, Hu Yinxiang, and Li Zhaoji also expressed that there is no problem. They have two days to give them sufficient consideration, and of course they will not object.

Lin Baicheng immediately said: "The matter of partnership investment will be discussed the day after tomorrow, so let's not talk about it now."

Everyone also meant the same thing, so they chatted about other things.

After chatting for a while, Li Zhaoji said to Lin Baicheng: "Lin Sheng, do you have a development plan for the land on the Kwun Tong side?"

"Li Sheng is referring to the land near Xinghe Game Company?"

As soon as Lin Baicheng heard it, he knew where the land Li Zhaoji was talking about, because he only had a large piece of land near the Xinghe Game Company in Kwun Tong.

The land near Xinghe Game Company was purchased by Lin Baicheng later. The reason why he bought it and didn’t develop it was because as the number of factory employees of Xinghe Game Company increased, the surrounding land had higher development value, and this kind of land created by his own company Of course, the benefits that come out cannot be earned by others.

"Yes, it's over there."

Li Zhaoji nodded and said, "To tell you the truth, Lin Sheng, with the expansion of Xinghe Game Company's factory, I found that the land there has a higher development value, so I bought some land in advance and waited for the development to make a fortune. .”

Li Zhaoji was not too greedy. Not only did he not buy all the land near Xinghe Game Company, but he didn't even buy much, because he knew very well that the reason why the land over there had higher development value was because of the Xinghe Game Factory. Those employees are here, if there is no factory, the land will naturally be worthless.

If Li Zhaoji bought all the nearby land, once Xinghe Game Company moved the factory, then those lands would all fall into his hands. Not only would he not be able to make money, but he would lose a lot. A wise man would not take it.

"Li Sheng has a good eye."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but praise. Of course he knew that part of the land near the factory had been bought by someone, but the other party didn't buy a lot, so he didn't check it out. He didn't expect that it was bought by Li Zhaoji in advance. It can be seen that Li Zhaoji's vision how nice.

"With regard to the land around the Xinghe factory, I have no development plans for a short period of time. If there is no accident, it should not be developed until a few years later."

The reason why it takes a few years to develop is very simple. Now that the real estate industry is on the rise, the development cost is relatively high. After the negotiations between China and Britain on the return of Xiangjiang led to the collapse of the Xiangjiang real estate industry, the cost of development will be much lower. .

Cost reduction equals profit increase.

"Is that so?"

Li Zhaoji was a little surprised when he heard the words. Now that the real estate industry is on the rise, he originally thought that Lin Baicheng would take advantage of the opportunity to develop it and make a fortune by taking advantage of the market. He didn't expect that Lin Baicheng would want to keep it for a few years, which was a bit unexpected.

"When Lin Sheng starts land development, he hopes to bring me along and let my lands follow suit."

The land is adjacent, so it is best to develop together when developing, so that the design can form a more integrated whole, and the value of the developed project will be higher.

"No problem, when the time comes, we will work together and make money together."

Lin Baicheng responded with a smile and did not refuse.Those lands are in the hands of Li Zhaoji, and it is beneficial to him to develop them together with those lands in his hands, so he has no reason to refuse.

"The real estate industry in Xiangjiang is getting better and better now, and I can't help but want to go in and make money."

Guo Henian said enviously, after all, he is a Chinese capital in Malaysia. It is of course no problem to do business in Xiangjiang, but it is not so easy to enter the real estate industry.

There are many Chinese tycoons in Xiangjiang who operate real estate. If Guo Henian enters the real estate industry to grab food, it will indirectly damage the interests of the real estate tycoons. Everyone's friendship will definitely change, and there will even be competition, and his other businesses will be affected. Influenced, personal connections will also be affected, it is a bit uneconomical to calculate.

The most important thing is that if you are new to this industry, it will not be so easy to make money if no one takes you with you.

"There are quite a few real estate companies in Xiangjiang now, and it is not an easy task to enter this industry."

Lin Baicheng said that if he hadn't bought Hutchison Whampoa, it would not be easy for him to enter the real estate industry.

Zheng Yutong said: "Real estate is very profitable, but Guo Sheng's hotel is also profitable. As Xiangjiang's economy is getting better and better, and its international status is getting higher and higher, the business of high-end hotels is also getting better. "

"In fact, everyone's business is not bad."

This is the truth, the assets here are not low, and the careers are all at an upward stage. If there is a problem with the company he is running, Lin Baicheng will not invite that person.

Everyone chatted until it was almost four o'clock before the party ended and they went back.

At the end of the party, Wang Fang reported to Lin Baicheng that Chen Yaoxian and Brian Owen had returned.

Chen Yaoxian and Brian Owen did not follow Lin Baicheng during this time, because they went to buy an uninhabited island that could be used as a base for the security company, and they negotiated with a professional negotiation team.

Lin Baicheng explained that it was not a very important or urgent matter, and he should not go to the garden to disturb his chat with other people, so Wang Fang reported this matter to Lin Baicheng after the others left.

This was not an urgent matter, so Lin Baicheng did not blame Wang Fang, but called Chen Yaoxian and Brian Owen to the upstairs study to talk.

"Is the negotiation on the private island going well this time?"

Lin Baicheng directly asked what the final result was.

Brian Owen immediately said: "Boss, things didn't go well. It's all our fault. We didn't do a good job at the beginning."

Chen Yaoxian also said: "Sir, we have let you down."

"It's okay, even if this negotiation doesn't go well, you can change to another country."

Lin Baicheng was not disappointed when he heard the words. After all, he still has a lot of choices, and it is impossible for everything to go his way. It is normal to have failures. After all, he is not an omnipotent God.

"Tell me the specific reasons why the negotiation failed."

Failure is acceptable, but Lin Baicheng needs to know the specific reason.

"Boss, the situation is like this."

Brian Owen said aloud: "After we contacted the Solomon Islands official, when they first learned that we were going to buy a private island, they were very welcome. At that time, they even offered a very generous discount on the price. Make a certain amount of investment in a private island."

The Solomon Islands, an island country located in the South Pacific, not far from Australia and Papua New Guinea, has a total of nearly a thousand islands and is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.

"and then?"

Lin Baicheng knew that there must be a turning point.

This time it was Chen Yaoxian who spoke: "However, after we expressed the purpose of purchasing a private island, the Solomon Islands officials immediately rejected it. Even if we are willing to invest heavily in the Solomon Islands, the other party is not willing to transfer a private island as a training base for security companies. .”

"Later, we consulted with high-level officials in the Solomon Islands in private, and only then did we know the reason. It turned out that the Solomon Islands did not have an army, and the national armed forces only had a few hundred policemen, and they were supported by Australia, New Zealand and other countries."

"The Solomon Islands itself has no armed forces, but we want to build a mercenary training base there. There are still a lot of people. Naturally, the Solomon Islands officials will not agree. No matter how good the conditions are, it will be useless."

This is like a smart and sensible child who would definitely not invite a strange adult into his home. No one knows whether this adult will have malicious intentions.

"Since this is the case, it is completely reasonable for the other party to refuse."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. He hadn't thought of this before, so he didn't blame Chen Yaoxian, Brian Owen and others, just took it as a lesson from inexperience.

"Since the Solomon Islands have rejected it, similar countries are likely to be no exceptions. We need to continue to find suitable training bases. You should put in more effort. I will wait for your good news."

"Boss, don't worry, we won't let you down again this time."

Brian Owen immediately assured that they had already made a mistake once, and if they made another mistake, it would be too unreasonable.

Chen Yaoxian also said: "This time we must find a suitable training base."

"Well, I'll wait for your good news."

Lin Baicheng smiled. Fortunately, the security company's training base is not very urgent to be settled, as long as it doesn't delay too long.

Leaving the study room and going downstairs, Lin Baicheng saw Lin Qin who was watching TV, and greeted him casually, but he was not very enthusiastic, mainly because the two had only met a while ago, and they separated not long ago.

"Brother, I'm back."

"Well, you should be back for a few days this time."

"Going to Los Angeles after Christmas."

Lin Qin said again: "I didn't come back alone this time, I came back with Sister Lijun and Sister Qingxia."

"Are they back too?"

Lin Baicheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then they should have gone back to Wanbei by now, right?"

Lin Qin said: "Sister Qingxia has gone back, but Sister Li Jun hasn't gone back yet, she said she will stay in Xiangjiang for a day or two."

"Then she must be here to meet her boyfriend."

Lin Baicheng immediately said that if nothing else happened, Deng Lijun should have stayed in Xiangjiang for a little longer because of Guo Kongchen.

"That's it."

Lin Qin nodded. She knew that Deng Lijun and Guo Kongchen were boyfriend and girlfriend. She had met Guo Kongchen when he went to Los Angeles to find Deng Lijun.

In the evening, Lin Shufang brought Cheng Yufeng home for dinner. The Lin family including Lin Baicheng didn't say anything about it. After all, the two were about to get engaged.

The next night, Lin Baicheng went to participate in the charity bazaar held by the Hong Kong government. This time he brought Lin Qin there, mainly to let Lin Qinlu show his face.

For this charity sale, Lin Baicheng auctioned off the original manuscript of the commemorative novel "The Wind and Cloud Hegemony".

As a popular martial arts novel, the original manuscript of "The Wind and Cloud Hegemony" has a certain value, not to mention that the author of the novel is Lin Baicheng, the richest man in Xiangjiang, so the value contained in it will only be higher.

Tonight's charity bazaar, among the invited guests are many celebrities and elites from the entertainment industry, not just wealthy businessmen.

Lin Baicheng even saw Huang Xizhao, Wu Siyuan and others from Asia Star Media Group. If he hadn't brought Lin Qin to chat with the Governor of Hong Kong, those people would definitely have greeted him.

In the charity sale that night, Lin Baicheng's original manuscript of "The Wind and Cloud Dominates the World" was the most popular. Many people actively bid for it, and the transaction price was as high as 320 million Hong Kong dollars, which was quite high.However, this is not the highest price tonight. The highest price is an antique offered by the Hong Kong government with a transaction price of 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

This price was set by Lin Baicheng, which is far too high in terms of the value of the antique itself.

Lin Baicheng himself is going to auction an item tonight, and the auction price is a charitable donation. Originally, he didn't plan to pay such a high price, and two or three million Hong Kong dollars will do.

But there was no way, the original manuscript of the novel that he took out was sold at a price of 320 million Hong Kong dollars, and the bidder was Chen Songqing. In order not to lose favor, he had to bid a higher price for the antique.

In this way, the highest price tonight is the antique that Lin Baicheng bought, and the transaction price of Lin Baicheng's original novel has little influence.

Of course, these are all calculations in Lin Baicheng's heart. On the surface, he is still happy that the original manuscript of the novel was auctioned at a high price. Afterwards, he specially chatted with Chen Songqing, mainly to show it to others.

There is no way, if someone bids a high price for Lin Baicheng's bazaar, he must not pretend to be deaf and dumb, he must show this kind of favor.
