Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 186 186 [All are profitable projects]

Mid-Levels Garden Residences at night
The atmosphere was very solemn. Luo Zegui and Lin Ya sat on the sofa without saying a word. Only Luo Qihong was standing.

He is a business tycoon outside, but just a "adopted brother" at home. When the two elders get angry, he can only tremble in fear and dare not fight back in the slightest.

"Is what's written in the newsprint true?" Lin Ya's tone was very calm, like the prelude to a storm.

These things have indeed damaged the family tradition of the Luo family for decades. Lin Ya doesn't know why a child with a pure nature would do such a thing. Who would be willing to marry their daughter to "Mr. Wang next door" in the future?

Luo Qihong didn't dare to admit it, he could only silently shake his head and said, "Those reporters made up all that stuff. I just happened to have a meal with that woman, and she happened to be divorcing her husband. I really suffered an unexpected disaster."

There is no way for honest people to survive these days. The right way is to speak the truth to people and lies to lies.

Seeing that Luo Qihong had a genuine expression and there were no outrageous actions in the photos, Lin Ya instantly believed Luo Qihong, the honest man in the past.

"Sit down first. You must be able to judge people by their appearance when doing business in the future. Don't fall into other people's traps. There are many "rolling friends" in Hong Kong." Lin Ya said earnestly, subconsciously believing that the child she taught would never do such a thing.

Luo Zegui, who was standing by, noticed something, but did not directly expose Luo Qihong's trick.

"Okay, I understand." Luo Qihong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He really couldn't stand Lin Ya's constant questioning. Fortunately, Lin Ya believed him, no, it should be that she believed in the original owner.

"Stay away from that woman and don't have anything to do with people like her." Lin Ya warned. She was worried that her innocent child would really be seduced.

Luo Qihong thought about it and still felt that there might be similar scandals in the future, so he gave Lin Ya a shot of prevention and said, "I'm afraid this won't work. We still have cooperation between us. If we breach the contract, we need to pay 2 million yuan."

This was of course meant to scare Lin Ya. The amount of 2 million yuan was enough to scare Lin Ya.

After all, Shengyun Printing Company cannot make this much money in 10 years.

"2 million!" Lin Ya was shocked, but she quickly reacted, "You can let other people in the company take care of these contracts. Try not to meet that woman."

Luo Qihong said hesitantly, "Some things still require me to discuss in person. These are millions of dollars worth of business, and my subordinates can't negotiate clearly, but it can indeed reduce the number of meetings with Li Qiqi."

If I make it clear, Lin Ya will probably show off her power and it will be difficult to explain future scandals. It is better to give in and keep the ambiguous result.

Lin Ya sighed, "Okay, be careful and don't cause any more scandals. Although the Luo family is not a famous family, it is also an honest family. We can't do such things as 'giving birth to a child without an asshole'."

Giving birth without an asshole?!
It doesn't have to be so serious. Why didn't Liu Da in his previous life give birth to a son without an anus?

Luo Qihong complained in his heart, but on the surface he nodded and agreed, otherwise Lin Ya would definitely nag him endlessly.

With the clarifications from the three parties involved, the heat of the incident has dropped a lot. Although it has not completely disappeared, there are still some gossip magazines trying to take advantage of the popularity and make some money, but it basically has no impact anymore.

It seems like the matter has passed, but some people still think this is a good time.

Wenya Cafe

This is a small-scale coffee shop that can only accommodate a dozen customers, but the coffee is delicious and has been recognized and sought after by many white-collar workers.

Sitting opposite Luo Qihong was his cousin Wu Xingchao, who was dressed in a suit and tie, looking like an upper-class person.

"Ah Hong, I won't beat around the bush, let's get straight to the point." Wu Xingchao said with a smile, "I know that you opened Dean Securities Investment Company specifically for Bai Jinyan, but your girlfriend seems to be someone else. If this news gets out, I'm afraid it will have a significant impact."

"." Luo Qihong was speechless. What the hell was this? Was this a threat?

"If you don't have anything else to do, I don't have time to mess around with you." Luo Qihong said with a grim expression. Of course, he didn't care about these scandals. Cleaning up Wu Xingchao was just a small matter.

Wu Xingchao was a little anxious when he saw this. "Ah Hong, you have to think it through. Once the scandal comes out, the share prices of Siu On Real Estate and China Gas Company will be affected."

"Really?" Luo Qihong sneered, "Do you think I can threaten anyone? Do you think I can't deal with you? One million is more than enough to buy your whole family, Wu Xingchao, don't be so shameless."

"I've been pissed off. Don't think that relying on your grandparents' reputation will save your life. Hong Kong will still thrive without you."

Wu Xingchao swallowed his saliva. The cunning aura emanating from Luo Qihong immediately intimidated him.

Wu Xingchao worked in securities and stocks and knew some of the unspoken rules of society. Sometimes there would be news that a certain broker had disappeared, and it was obvious that he had been taken advantage of by his financial sponsor.

As for the police force, of course they have to do something, but the murderer has already fled Hong Kong and fled to other Southeast Asian countries. What else can the Hong Kong police force do? They can only issue a wanted warrant and be done with it.

Wu Xingchao still didn't give up. Seeing that the hard approach didn't work, he tried the soft approach, "Ah Hong, we are cousins. I just want you to take care of me a little more. I have no intention of harming you."

"Humph! You know very well whether you have the intention to harm others or not." Luo Qihong glanced at Wu Xingchao, "I can't give you the care you mentioned. I have never seen anyone begging for care in this way."

"I warn you again, don't do anything bad to me. If you do, I won't see you again next time."

Lin Ying's family are all ungrateful people. Why not take care of them? It's better to donate to charity. At least you can be called a philanthropist.

Wu Xingchao looked at Luo Qihong's back as he left, feeling extremely angry but helpless. It was because Luo Qihong was so powerful that dealing with him was as easy as crushing an ant.

Early to mid-October
There are reports in the market that the four major shareholders of Qiaolian Real Estate Company have disagreements over the sale of equity, and the China Securities Regulatory Commission is vigorously collecting information, which seems to be a sign of the collapse of the cooperation.

Luo Qihong’s people could not find out the real reason for the disagreement in cooperation, and it would not help the overall situation. They could only satisfy Luo Qihong’s curiosity.

"Should we sell the shares of Qiaolian Real Estate Company in advance?" Bai Jinyan asked cautiously.

Luo Qihong carefully recalled Chen Songqing's work style and deeds, and believed that Chen Songqing was likely to pass on the blame, and the buyer should be Yida Group.

Chen Songqing has always been an egoist, and his partner Zhong Zhengwen is nothing more than Chen Songqing's trash can. Any unsatisfactory acquisitions of Jianing Company were transferred to Yida Group.

If Yida Group takes over Qiaolian Real Estate Company, the stock price will not rise much. The main reason is that Zhong Zhengwen's personal reputation is far inferior to Chen Songqing, and it is difficult for him to be sought after by shareholders. At the same time, shareholders' confidence in Zhong Zhengwen is not that high.

"The current share price of Qiaolian Real Estate is 1.7 yuan, with a market value of 6 million yuan. It seems to be a good price, but in fact it can be hyped up again to make the price soar to 8 yuan and reach our target value," Luo Qihong analyzed.

Bai Jinyan pondered for a moment and said, "This may attract the attention of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should we be more cautious?"

Luo Qihong smiled and said, "Now, the attention of the Securities and Futures Commission is focused on Qiaolian Real Estate Company and Jianing Company. Their energy is limited and they may not pay attention to us. We can take some risks."

"I still think there is no need to offend the CSRC for a small amount of profit. Recently, many companies have been heavily fined by the CSRC and lost a lot of money. They have also been put on the CSRC's blacklist, which will cause varying degrees of trouble for future fundraising and share offerings." Bai Jinyan continued to persuade Luo Qihong.

She heard that many companies were tampered by the Securities and Exchange Commission. As the market system gradually improved, there were fewer and fewer loopholes to exploit, and the risks were getting bigger and bigger. It was better to develop honestly. "What you said makes sense. It's better not to provoke the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, we have always operated legally and in compliance with regulations. As long as the project is reasonable and legal, the Securities and Exchange Commission will not hold us back." Luo Qihong did not think that the Securities and Exchange Commission would easily catch us.

"Okay, then what should we do?" Bai Jinyan could only give in and try his best to help Luo Qihong fill the gap.

"Announce the news to the public that Zhaoan Real Estate Company will join hands with De'an Securities Investment Company to acquire Qiaolian Real Estate Company. You can make an appointment to meet with the senior management of your former employer, Sun Hung Kai Securities, and take the opportunity to hype it up." Luo Qihong said with a smile.

The trend is now set, and with just a slight push, the share price of Qiaolian Real Estate Company will immediately break through 2 yuan.

Bai Jinyan thought about it for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then I'll contact the senior management of Sun Hung Kai Securities."

As long as it is done properly, this plan can be turned into a rumor, making it easier to get out of it later.

Two days later

A large number of newspapers and magazines reported that Luo Qihong's company would jointly acquire Qiaolian Real Estate Company, and included photos of Bai Jinyan, general manager of De'an Securities Investment Company, meeting with senior executives of Sun Hung Kai Securities.

Neither Siu On Real Estate Company nor De'an Securities Investment Company came out to clarify, as if they had tacitly acknowledged the matter. The top management of Sun Hung Kai Securities immediately held a press conference to clarify that they had never discussed with De'an Securities Investment Company about the acquisition of Qiao Lian Real Estate Company, and that this was completely false.

Unfortunately, the outside world was skeptical, and the share price of Qiaolian Real Estate Company broke through 2 yuan on the second day, with a market value of more than 2 million yuan.

Luo Qihong ordered Bai Jinyan to sell the goods quickly and recover the funds.

Due to the large amount of stock held, a full 6 million shares, it will take a week to sell them all.

Under pressure from reporters, Luo Qihong could only declare that those news were all rumors and that Zhaoan Real Estate Company had no plans to acquire Qiaolian Real Estate Company for the time being.

However, this move successfully attracted the attention of the China Securities Regulatory Commission. They suspected that this was planned by Chen Songqing in collusion with Luo Qihong, with the purpose of raising the share price and market value of Qiaolian Real Estate Company.

Fortunately, as Luo Qihong said, Zhaoan Real Estate Company has no problems at all and is not afraid of investigation by the CSRC. As for those delayed transaction projects, Luo Qihong has dealt with them all afterwards and there are no problems.

Wednesday, December 82, 1

佳宁公司宣布，所持有的21.7%侨联地产公司股权以2亿元的价格出售给益大集团，其中公司获利1千2百70万元。

As soon as this announcement came out, the share price of Qiaolian Real Estate Company fell slightly, but its market value still remained above 8 million yuan.

Luo Qihong raised his lips slightly when he heard the news. "It's another left-hand deal. Chen Songqing is really good at this. Not only the stockholders were deceived, but also the tycoons and banks."

Bai Jinyan sensed something fishy and asked, "Is there a problem? Jianing Company has made a profit from this, and Yida Group has a market value of over 10 billion yuan, so there shouldn't be any problem."

"Of course there is no problem on the surface, but the inside is very bad. The city has not collapsed yet, and Jianing Company can still be saved." Luo Qihong had no actual evidence and could only talk big.

Bai Jinyan thought that Luo Qihong was talking about the transaction of Qiaolian Real Estate Company at hand, but he never thought that he was talking about the business model of Jianing Company.

"Okay, this is Chen Songqing's business, and it has nothing to do with us." Luo Qihong smiled and said, "Let's talk about our profits from the Overseas Chinese Real Estate Company."

Jianing Company is actually beyond saving. With its current size, who can come up with tens of billions of yuan to save such a huge company?

Even the partner Yida Group already has loans of 21 billion yuan and guaranteed loans of 16 billion yuan, not to mention the larger Jianing Company.

“德安公司持有侨联地产公司7%的股权，抛售均价为2.08元，回笼资金5千7百零7万元，利润有4千1百11万元。”

“兆安地产公司持股8%，抛售均价为2.08元，回笼资金6千5百23万元，利润是4千7百万元。”

“两家公司共回笼资金1亿2千2百30万元，利润超过8千8百万元，非常可观。”

Bai Jinyan reported with a happy face that if there were two more such investment projects, De'an Company would be able to match the annual profit of Sun Hung Kai Securities.

This is an abnormal profit, which is naturally not as good as the normal profit of Sun Hung Kai Securities.

"How do you plan to use this money?" Luo Qihong asked. His private investment funds would arrive soon, and repaying the more than 3 million yuan loan from the Bank of East Asia would not be a problem.

Therefore, he did not plan to share the profits of De'an Company, and let these funds continue to "give birth".

Bai Jinyan pondered for a moment and responded, "I want to set up a branch in Japan to invest in the Japanese stock market. After my analysis, I think the Japanese stock market will have a big increase."

This also reminded Luo Qihong of the Japanese stock market and American technology stocks. These are all good investment directions, much better than the upcoming Hong Kong stock market, and are also good investment plans during the big crash.

So, Luo Qihong nodded and said, "I agree with you. I support your plan to set up a branch in Japan, but this plan needs a suitable person to take charge."

Bai Jinyan replied, "The establishment of a new company requires someone trustworthy to run it, and that person can only be you or me. As for the future controller, I prefer a professional manager."

"Yeah!" Luo Qihong nodded. It was a smart move to choose a local as a manager. It would not only save time in getting familiar with the local culture, but also reduce the local people's rejection.

"Then let's raise 1 million Hong Kong dollars as start-up capital for the new company." Luo Qihong made the decision immediately.

In fact, Luo Qihong also has his eyes on the appreciation of the Japanese yen, which can just serve as a defense against the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar next year.

Bai Jinyan was slightly surprised. She didn't expect Luo Qihong to value the Japanese market so much.

The investment in the Japanese stock market and the new company have been decided, and unless there are special circumstances, it will be difficult to change.

As for the investment in U.S. technology stocks, Luo Qihong plans to conduct it privately and through reverse investment by Citibank, without the need to conduct operations in the United States.

Kaida Baoye Company Meeting Room
This company will launch a toy doll called Cabbage Patch Doll in the near future. After receiving the news, Luo Qihong immediately went to the company in person to obtain the agency rights for this toy doll.

Because this toy figure is about to take the world by storm.

What Luo Qihong needs to obtain is the agency rights in South America, Europe, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea, which will bring him enormous wealth.

Ding Xiongzhao, general manager of Kaida Baoye Company, personally received Luo Qihong to discuss the agency rights.

After several minutes of greetings, Ding Xiongzhao got down to business. "Mr. Luo, it is really difficult to authorize the agency rights in so many regions. Kaida Baoye also has many offices in Europe and the United States and can take on the agency matters. There is really no need to hand it over to Hexiang Trading Company."
