Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 11 [Guan Jiahui]

"Okay, I'll do it right away. Please wait a moment, Mr. Luo." Liang Botao had already guessed that Luo Qihong would sell at this price, so he took Zhang Taotao to work again.

An hour later, Liang Botao came over and said, "Mr. Luo, you have sold all your shares of Regal Hotels. The purchase price was 1.5 yuan, and the selling price was 5.2 yuan. There were 140 lots and 7000 shares in total. After deducting the expenses, the profit was 25172 yuan, and the return was 35671 yuan."

"The current share price of Yongchangsheng Real Estate is 1 yuan, and it is expected that all of it can be bought within two hours. Luo Sheng, do you want to wait here for a while? Or should I call you again?"

Luo Qihong thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll wait a while, so I don't have to make another trip."

"Okay, I will complete the purchase operation as soon as possible." Liang Botao promised.

More than an hour later, Luo Qihong received the stock certificates, 712 lots totaling 35600 shares.

Now it is mid-to-late October. Luo Qihong speculated that the Regal Hotel Company would soon take action against the Yongchangsheng Real Estate Company. Yongchangsheng Real Estate Company is small in scale and is just a small real estate company of relatively high quality. It is very likely to be acquired by the Regal Hotel in a short period of time, and the profit earned may be less.

Luo Qihong was thinking about how to spread the news and make investors believe it.

Will Regal Hotels give up the acquisition because the case is exposed?
Luo Qihong feels that the possibility of this is very low, because a company's decision-making, preparation, and acquisition are all complicated processes, and generally it will not back down easily. Instead, it will speed up the acquisition to reduce losses.

On the tram, after thinking for a long time, Luo Qihong still couldn't spread the news perfectly, let alone make the shareholders believe it.

Wednesday, May 10

After completing a series of procedures, Rocky Real Estate Company was officially renamed Hehong Real Estate Company, Luo Qihong became the legal person of the company, and Lin Rocky completely withdrew from the company, returned to the Lin family, and followed his father Lin Zuhui to learn company management methods.

So, Luo Qihong inherited the empire built by Lin Luoqi. Since Luo Qihong often needed to go out to handle affairs and the shop could not be closed, he wanted to find an employee to help him.

Finding an employee seemed simple, but Luo Qihong wanted to find someone he could trust, so things became difficult.

That afternoon, an unexpected guest came to visit, which surprised Luo Qihong.

"Hello, boss! Do you have a single room for rent?" A clear female voice sounded.

Luo Qihong looked up and saw a familiar baby face from his previous life appear in front of him, which made him a little dazed.

Cao!
Isn't this Hong Kong's most beautiful lady, Guan Jiahui? !

He reacted instantly, asked Guan Jiahui to sit down and served her a cup of tea.

At this moment, he had an urge to conquer Guan Jiahui, but he suppressed it. He was worried about scaring Guan Jiahui away, and he kept warning himself: She is just a woman. Can't I find a beautiful girl if I have money?

"What's your name, miss? How big a room do you want to rent? How much does it cost?" Luo Qihong put away those thoughts and adopted his usual businesslike attitude.

"My last name is Guan. A single room that can accommodate me is fine." Guan Jiahui said shyly.

At this time, Guan Jiahui had just graduated from high school. Although she had a lot of work experience, she still lacked social experience and was far less "transparent" than Guan Jiahui in her previous life.

"Miss Guan, excuse me. Are you an adult now? Do you have a stable job? This will involve the issue of rent collection." Luo Qihong took the opportunity to ask some questions that he wanted to ask. "I am an adult and now I work as a salesgirl in a jewelry store." Guan Jiahui was a little confused. This was the first time she encountered these problems when renting a house, but the reasons given by Luo Qihong seemed reasonable, so she answered anyway.

Luo Qihong didn't dare to ask too much, fearing that he would arouse Guan Jiahui's suspicion, so he said, "Then I will take Miss Guan to see the house now."

"How much does a typical single room cost per month?" asked Guan Jiahui.

"About 120 yuan a month." Luo Qihong didn't know what job Guan Jiahui was doing now, but from the look on her face, he guessed that her salary was not high.

"If Miss Guan is short of money, I have a solution. My shop is hiring people. If a beauty like Miss Guan joins, it should bring me a lot of customers. As for the rent, of course it can be counted as an employee benefit." Luo Qihong suggested with a smile.

Hearing this, Guan Jiahui looked at Luo Qihong warily. She felt that Luo Qihong was plotting against her.

Luo Qihong said tactfully, "It seems that Miss Guan doesn't like the work of an agent. Then let's go and look at the house first, and we can talk about these things later."

Luo Qihong rented the house to Guan Jiahui according to market rules. After completing the formalities, he said goodbye to Guan Jiahui with a smile without staying for a moment.

Like sand, the tighter you hold on to it, the easier it is to lose it. It is better to play hard to get.

In the following week, Hehong Real Estate Company's business was very good. They even rented out a floor of the industrial building, making a profit of more than 3400 yuan, allowing Luo Qihong to collect 5000 yuan and return it to Lin Luoqi.

I don't know if it was God's blessing, but on Thursday, October 10, an article titled "Newly listed Regal Hotels intends to acquire Yong Chang Sheng Real Estate Co., Ltd." was published in the "Sing Tao Daily". Suddenly, the stock market was boiling, investors began to buy heavily, and the share price of Yong Chang Sheng Real Estate Co., Ltd. continued to rise.

Perhaps seeing this, Regal Hotel became worried and immediately released an acquisition plan, announcing the acquisition of Yongchangsheng Real Estate Company's shares until it held 61% of the shares.

Only Regal Hotel initiated the acquisition of Yongchangsheng Real Estate. There was no other competitor, and Regal Hotel offered a purchase price of 2.2 yuan. Therefore, the shareholders were quite satisfied and went to Huoduoli Company to register for the sale.

Of course, there are also some shareholders who believe that Great Eagle Properties has good management capabilities and that Yong Chang Sheng Properties will see a significant increase if it becomes part of the Great Eagle Properties family. Therefore, they are unwilling to sell and keep the shares in their hands, waiting for a higher price before selling them.

Luo Qihong was well aware that after Yongchangsheng Real Estate changed its name to Palibao Investment, with the support of Great Eagle Properties, it entered the residential building and commercial building fields, and the company's market value was changing with each passing day, but he really couldn't wait any longer.

In the next period of time, there will be some large and small acquisitions. This is a godsend opportunity that Luo Qihong cannot miss.

There was a long queue at Huoduoli Company, and Luo Qihong could only find Liang Botao, who had not yet resigned, and ask him to help him register to sell the Yongchangsheng Real Estate Company stocks "through the back door".

HSBC
"Mr. Luo, you held 13780 lots, totaling 68900 shares of Yongchangsheng Real Estate Company. All of them have now been sold. After deducting all expenses, you have recovered 15 yuan, with a return rate of up to 64%." Liang Botao was a little surprised, but there was no expression on his face.

On the contrary, Zhang Taotao was shocked. 120% gray return rate, how scary!
"Okay! Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Liang and Mr. Zhang!" Luo Qihong turned around and said, "Mr. Liang, what is the current share price of Taohua Datong Food Company? Can I buy all of it with this batch of funds?"

The last sentence is a bit tasteless, but it reveals a hint of arrogance. There is no listed company that cannot swallow an investment of 15 yuan.

Liang Botao glanced at Zhang Taotao, who understood what he meant and went to check, "Mr. Luo, please wait a moment! I'll check it right away."
