At present, the most important investment in Heiyun is the construction of Heiyun Town in Heungjiang; of course, there is also the foreign exchange business in East Germany. However, East Germany did not dare to absorb too many East German marks, although they knew that after the reunification of the two Germanys, East Germany and West German marks would be exchanged one-for-one. But that is mainly aimed at ordinary people; large financial institutions may have limited numbers.
If West Germany saw that the Heiyun Group actually held tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions of East German marks, it would be a different idea. In the face of huge wealth, no one can guarantee that it can be cashed, and a discount may be the best choice at that time. If you encounter a rogue, it is possible to confiscate it directly; it will be too late to cry.
As for investment in Japan, it is basically the responsibility of the Blackstone Fund. At present, the scale and volume are already very large. If the investment is increased, it will be very difficult to leave the market decently in the end. Moreover, after the Blackstone Foundation's work in Japan is completed, it will not return to the United States; it will go directly to the Soviet Union. After all, there is a gluttonous feast waiting for them.
After all the calculations, Heiyun employees have not yet benefited. If you want employees to work with you, you must not lose income.
Not to mention how extravagant life is, at least it exceeds the vast majority of people in this world.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "Since you have been to China mainland many times, how would you rate the work attitude of the Chinese mainland citizens or workers?"
A superior, no matter what question he asks, there must be other mappings. The boss suddenly asked about the working attitude of the Chinese mainland citizens and workers, which made Huo Jianning, who had been in China many times in the past, immediately think of something.
Huo Jianning: "The workers in mainland China are very hard-working, and it is not even an exaggeration to say that they are the most industrious workers in the world. The most important thing is that they are very hard-working and willing to do any dirty work; they never consider personal gains and losses."
Although Yuan Tianfan has been to mainland China several times because of the development of Heiyun Bank in the mainland market. But the contacts are all high-end people, and it is rare to see ordinary construction workers at the bottom of society.
Before Huo Jianning became the head of Hutchison Company, he was in charge of the infrastructure work of Heiyun Group in the deep-sea factory; therefore, he still has a deep understanding of this aspect.
Hearing Huo Jianning's answer, Bao Zixuan was still very satisfied. So he smiled and said, "Then what is their salary!"
When the boss mentioned the salary, the two immediately thought of something.
Huo Jianning: "The wage level of workers in mainland China is only one-eighth of that in Xiangjiang, or even lower. The wages of construction workers are even more pitifully low; the overall construction cost is basically negligible."
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Although I am not a major in economics, nor have I studied in the field of economics. But I also know that a country has a group of hard-working workers, and the salaries are not high. How powerful productivity can be produced? I just can't imagine it."
"In terms of the whole world, the overall salary level of Xiangjiang is not very high. Of course, I am not boasting, except for the Heiyun Group. But apart from our Heiyun Group, there are basically no high-tech enterprises, which makes Xiangjiang's income and housing prices do not match at all. The proportion. But this is also a process that the Chinese world must go through. In the future, the Hong Kong real estate market is bound to be so high that the absolute majority of people can only look up to it.”
"On the other hand, the same is true of China mainland, with a population of more than 1 billion. Moreover, there are not many good areas in China mainland, and they are basically concentrated in the southeastern coastal generation, so the population size of large cities will be extremely large in the future."
"It can't be reflected now. In the past ten, twenty, or even thirty years, there will be insufficient urban housing. After all, there are more than 7 floors of people in mainland China, and they still live in rural areas. At present, there are many farmers, Young people, in particular, have begun to yearn for big city life."
"It is a matter of time before they enter the city. This is a process that any country in the world must go through to develop. Therefore, I am absolutely optimistic about the economic development of China mainland; only God knows what heights it will reach in the future."
Hearing Bao Zixuan's analysis, the two were shocked. The boss is indeed not engaged in economics-related majors, but his understanding of historical knowledge, and the control of the current situation, as well as the analysis of economic planning, are in place. Some things can't be learned in school at all, maybe it's a talent problem.
Huo Jianning: "I also know that the economy of mainland China can develop, and it is impossible to even soar into the sky. But now there is a question, is it necessary to take so much land at once!"
"China mainland has issued a new regulation, as long as the land is acquired for more than three years without construction, it will be recovered for free. If this is the case, the financial pressure on the entire Hutchison Whampoa will be very great."
In fact, this is also a strategy for attracting investment, and some companies cannot come to fish in troubled waters. However, Bao's richest man still has absolute confidence in this. What will happen in the three-year construction, and the progress of the project is also prioritized. For cities with rapid economic development, the construction speed can be accelerated. For cities with not so fast economic development, it is completely possible to grind foreign workers. After all, it is not effective to build them.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "What is the price of acquiring the land now, and what the price will be if the land is acquired in the past ten or twenty years. So don't care about these, the classic buildings will never go out of style."
"Also, we can design first, and then design it; cities with fast economic development can start construction at full capacity. For cities with relatively backward economic development, it is completely possible to pretend. The terms stipulate that construction must start within three years. , and there is no stipulation on when it will be completed.”
"But there is one thing to control, that is, workers' wages, which must not be in arrears. Moreover, they must be personally supervised and paid to workers on time every month. Some cities in mainland China are not so open. It is normal for workers to pay wages on an annual basis. This incident must not appear in my Bao Zixuan project."
"No matter who is involved, there is no need to have any scruples. The reputation of Hutchison Whampoa is very important, and this must not be ignored."
The boss has already said so clearly, if he doesn't understand. Then the two of them don't have to stay in the company any longer, and the positions of executives can be abdicated.
Huo Jianning: "Boss, according to what you said, 50 billion Hong Kong dollars is not enough. After all, there are too many cities involved. Although the land in China is not expensive now, the area we need is really too large. And they are all key cities. Every city is still a city center. Demolition alone is a hassle.”
In the 1980s, the people were still relatively simple, and there were no nail households. The idea is not so complicated, and there is no sky-high asking price. And being able to move out of the old bungalow and live in a building is the dream of every resident. But Bao Zixuan didn't want to make things happen, and he didn't want to be attacked by Internet trolls in the future.
Bao Zixuan: "That's 100 billion. In short, it must be done in one step. For the residents involved in demolition, we must appease them. As compensation for them, they can buy a house anywhere in the local area; or simply sign a contract with them. The agreement not only provides financial compensation, but also the building after it is built can also enter the scope of compensation."
"You are professional in this regard, and you can decide on the specific situation. In short, I want to see a satisfactory result. At the same time, I can't let people stab me in the back of Bao Zixuan's spine."
The boss's intention is obvious, just follow this implementation. Anyone can spend money, but if you just spend money, you really can't show your ability.
Bao Zixuan glanced, Yuan Tianfan immediately understood what he meant, so he smiled and said, "If Hutchison's funds are not enough, Heiyun Bank can provide financial support. At present, we have a lot of deposits, even beyond imagination. So don't worry about funds, Heiyun. It can be solved within the bank.”
Hearing such a confident assurance, Huo Jianning really didn't know what to say. But Bao Zixuan's words brought him back to reality.
The richest man Bao said with a smile: "Don't blame me for not reminding the two of you, the issuance of new shares may be the last time Hutchison has done this. The possibility of future appreciation and expansion is very small. Therefore, it is best to buy more if it does not affect your life. Since you come back with me, you must not treat the two of you badly."
The boss's business vision has never been wrong, Huo Jianning and Yuan Tianfan immediately understood what it meant. Dare to let them invest shows that they have absolute confidence in the project. And it's not just the two of them, but it involves tens of millions of employees of the Black Cloud Group. If there is a problem with the project, then the employees of the entire Heiyun Group; whoever has the mind to work, the loss may be greater.
