v3 Chapter 815： Start from the Liang family

Liang Chang, a well-known wealthy businessman in Hong Kong and Austria, was originally a wealthy businessman on the mainland. During the war, his family came to Xiangjiang and used the resources in his hand, coupled with his own ability, to create a wealthy Liang across Xiangjiang and Omen. Family.

In the 1950s, Liang Chang cooperated with Fu Laorong, the first-generation gambling king of Longman, to run an entertainment gambling company.

However, when Fu Laorong passed away in 1960, the new governor Ma Ji was dissatisfied with the Fu family’s monopoly of the long-term gambling industry, so he re-issued gambling cards. After that, the second-generation gambling kings He Hongshen and Ye Han took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the long-term gambling rights. Being taken away by He Hongshen and others, Liang Changcai had to retreat to Xiangjiang. A few years later, Liang Chang died naturally, and the Liang family stick passed on to his son Liang Zhiwei.

Liang Zhiwei was quite a father. In 1933, he represented the Liang family and established Hang Seng Bank in partnership with Lin Bingyan, He Shanheng and others. However, in 1965, Hang Seng Bank was controlled by HSBC, and the Liang family had a sharp stake. Less, even the board of directors has not been saved.

However, it is said that the dead camel is bigger than the horse. What's more, the Liang family was only frustrated in the long-term gambling industry, and the banking industry is not the core. It is one of the shareholders, and the damage is not serious. Therefore, the overall strength of the family remains the same. Improved every year.

It's just that Liang Chang has lived for a long time, so when the control of the family fell to Liang Zhiwei, he was more than 60 years old. After only a dozen years, as the second-generation heir of the wealthy Liang family and the current head of the family, Liang Chang is now in high age. Realizing that preparations were necessary, in 1979, he gradually transferred the affairs of the Liang family to his son Liang Zhonghao. After a year of observation, Liang Zhonghao's performance also made Liang Zhiwei very pleased.

This morning, Liang Zhiwei, who was in poor health, was lying on the wicker chair in the yard, bathing in the warm sunshine, reading the newspaper leisurely.

More than a year has been enough for him to adapt to a relaxed and comfortable life.

At this moment, Liang Zhonghao quietly came to his father's side.

Liang Zhiwei put down the newspaper, pushed the reading glasses, and asked faintly: "How about? What did Zheng Yutong say?"

Liang Zhiwei thought that his son Liang Zhonghao wanted to talk to himself about real estate, because there happened to be a business that wanted to cooperate with New World Development Corporation these days, and Liang Zhonghao was taking full responsibility.

After the failure of the Longman gambling industry, the Liang family has stepped into multiple industries in order to expand its influence and share the risks. The real estate industry is the core industry of the Liang family.

In addition to setting up a real estate development company by the Liang family, the holding Heungkong Shanghai Hotel Group also involved in the real estate industry, and the Liang family is also an important shareholder of Zheng Yutong’s New World Development Company. In November last year, Liang Zhonghao took over the responsibility and served as Director of New World Development Corporation.

The Xiangjiang family knows that the Liang family and Zheng Yutong almost wear a pair of trousers, and the relationship between the two parties is very close.

Liang Zhonghao shook his head, frowned slightly, and said with some annoyance: "Dad, it's not a matter of the development of the new world, but it may be a trouble. I just received a call at the company, and Xia Yu came to make an appointment. Come visit our house at 3 in the afternoon."

Liang Zhiwei, who was still relaxing on the recliner, couldn't keep calm this time. He immediately sat up and looked at his son with a serious expression, "Did he say anything? Do you know his purpose?"

Liang Zhonghao shook his head: "He didn't say it, I kept asking it vaguely, he just said that there is something he wants to cooperate with us, which is a win-win thing."

After listening, Liang Zhiwei furrowed his brows, stood up, holding his hands and thinking about the possibility.

Upon seeing this, Liang Zhonghao whispered: "Dad, I thought about it when I came here. Our family has a lot of involvement with Xia Yu. One is the real estate industry, the other is the Hong Kong Olympic Flying Boat Company, and the other is Xiangjiang. Shanghai Hotel Group, these three are all competing."

What Liang Zhonghao said was all involved in the Liang family. Needless to say, Xia Yu is now the largest landlord in Hong Kong. Jiuding Real Estate Group has no matter whether it is land holdings, real estate opening, construction, and transaction volume. And so on, they all rank first in Hong Kong. The Liang family's real estate company will always overlap with Xia Yu's Jiuding Real Estate Group, and friction is normal.

Needless to say, the Hong Kong-Olympic Flying Ferry Company is a direct competitor to Xia Yu’s current Star Ferry Company under the Jiuding Transportation Group Company, and the scope of competition is in the Hong Kong-Olympic lane.

He Hongshen’s Shun Tak Shipping Company was the first to operate this line. Later, the Liang family, who had failed in the gambling industry, was unwilling to set up the Hong Kong Olympic Flying Wing Company to intervene in the competition. Later, the Xiangjiang Yau Ma Tei Ferry Company also participated and formed The trend of three pillars.

Afterwards, the Xiangjiang Yau Ma Tei Ferry Company was acquired by Xia Yu, merged into the Star Ferry Company, and then subordinated to the Jiuding Transportation Group. Naturally, it can be regarded as a direct competition with Xia Yu.

There is no need to mention the last Xiangjiang Shanghu Hotel Group. It is not far from Xia Yu’s Harbour City in the Kowloon area and competes head-on with Marco Polo Xiangjiang Hotel.

The Hang Seng Bank’s point, Liang Zhonghao did not mention it, because now Hang Seng Bank is controlled by HSBC and no one can take it away, and the Liang family only has a few percent of the equity. The competition between Hang Seng Bank and Jiuding Bank can also be said. It has nothing to do with the Liang family.

After a long time, Liang Zhiwei stopped and said with a slight dignity: "What you say is possible. Make a plan for each, and see how he plays the cards in the afternoon."

"By the way, you should also prepare. No matter what he is doing, Xia Yu's power in Xiangjiang is too strong now. If he can't sin against him, he will try his best not to sin against him. As long as he can befriend him without harming his family's interests, Not bad."

Liang Zhonghao nodded his head: "Don't worry, dad, I know everything."

Liang Zhiwei smiled and nodded: "Well, you have performed very well this year. You can rank in the middle and upper reaches of the same generation."

Just when Liang Zhonghao smiled, Liang Zhiwei immediately poured cold water: "But don't be proud. Your current performance is just barely conservative, far less than the people who started a family. Xia Yu is a dozen years younger than you, but accomplishments. My Liang family has not been able to match it for a hundred years. This afternoon, you can listen and read more. It is best to be able to understand."

Liang Zhonghao took a deep breath. He did not get angry because his father compared himself with Xia Yu and devalued himself. For Xia Yu's achievements, he had long been convinced, even admired.

If the gap with one person can still be caught up, it will only be envy and jealousy, but when the gap is widened enough, then people's mentality will change, and more will be admiration and admiration.

Today, the younger generations of rich children in Xiangjiang have long been convinced of Xia Yu to the point of numbness, directly ignoring Xia Yu's age, and classifying Xia Yu at the level of his parents.

"Dad, don't worry, I know how important it is, and I can face myself."

"Now let's talk about how to deal with him this afternoon."

"Well, let's go into the back room and talk."

After speaking, Liang Zhonghao helped his father Liang Zhiwei, and the father and son walked slowly into the inner room.

...

At three o’clock in the afternoon, when Xia Yu’s car came to the door of Liang’s house, he was surprised to find Liang Zhiwei was standing at the door with Liang Zhonghao staring at the hot sun. Xia Yu quickly ordered the driver to stop, then opened the door and walked to the two of them. A flattered expression said to Liang Zhiwei: "Liang Sheng, you are so generous, Xia is really ashamed of it, I'm late, sorry!"

No matter what kind of mentality Liang Zhiwei made such a move, the courtesy Xia Yu must be able to accept. Although Xia Yu wanted to have a threatening nature, there is no way to say that he still has to accept his love.

Xia Yu estimated in his heart that Liang Zhiwei was afraid that he would not understand him, and worried that he was a weasel giving a New Year greeting to the rooster, so he lowered his posture first, so that he could not show his face and do evil.

"I'm so notorious?" Xia Yu secretly laughed at himself.

"What you want, Xia Sheng is the God of Wealth, and the distinguished guests come to the door, but let me Liang Jia Pengxun shine."

Liang Zhiwei laughed loudly.

People in the sedan chair carry others, isn't it just business blowing up each other, he can also say openly: "Liang Sheng had a good reputation, the Liang family was already famous when I was not born, and it has been passed down for a hundred years, I have to learn from your family."

"Haha, Xia Sheng can speak well!"

Liang Zhiwei laughed loudly.

Suddenly he lightly stroked his forehead, waking up, and said to himself: "Look at me, this old fool, blocking Xia Sheng at the door, it really shouldn't, please come inside."

"It doesn't matter, you always please!" Xia Yu said with a faint smile, and entered the room half way behind Liang Zhiwei.

After a while, the servant brought the dim sum and tea that had been prepared, and Xia Yu and several of his subordinates drank tea at Liang Zhiwei's greeting.

Talking and laughing and talking about funny things, I swallowed a cup of tea without knowing it.

Realizing that it was almost time, Xia Yu put down his teacup, looked at Liang Zhiwei with a faint smile, and said, "Liang Sheng, this time I took the liberty to visit, there is a cooperation I want to discuss with your family...

Liang Zhiwei's eyes condensed, his body leaned forward slightly, and his face solemnly said, "Xia Sheng might as well say straight."

Liang Zhonghao, who was sitting by the side, lifted his heart slightly, looking at Xia Yu with scorching eyes, and even his breathing slowed down subconsciously.

Xia Yu smiled faintly and said: "Liang Sheng, as far as I know, the Liang family's business focus is now on the real estate industry."

This is a fact that most of the rich and powerful people know So Liang Zhiwei nodded calmly: "Yes."

Xia Yu said with a smile: "My cooperation involves real estate business."

"Although Xiangjiang Shanghu Hotel Group started as a hotel, as far as I know, most of the group's assets are in the real estate field, and this area is directly managed by your family."

Hearing this, Liang Zhiwei frowned slightly, with a bad feeling in his heart.

Fortunately, Xia Yu's next words dispelled his worries and let him secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"But I also have a real estate company myself, and the land is sufficient for development, so I don't want to expand the real estate company. Liang Sheng can rest assured."

"As for me, it happens to be a little contradictory with the Kadoorie family, so I intend to integrate the hotel market."

"Therefore, I intend to cooperate with your family on the Xiangjiang Shanghu Hotel Group."
