Chapter 130 The eldest son Xianshuo (seeking the moon)(1/2)
In 1950, at the beginning of the new year, Wu Guangyao first came to Changjiang Industry.
Although Changjiang Industrial has been established for two months, it has not started to stockpile land.
In the past two months, Changjiang Industry is like a bystander, watching the abnormal development of Hong Kong Island's "lou Guidi and land is cheap" but is indifferent.
Among them, Wu Guangyao's idea is to find the most appropriate time to hoard land in large quantities.
Things really went towards Wu Guangyao's expectations, and the land auctions of the Hong Kong government often failed;
Many foreign-funded enterprises have sold their properties and are preparing to withdraw from Hong Kong Island.
The Hong Kong Island crisis is shrouded in every Hong Kong Island people, and people are in panic.
Every day, people spread rumors, and they were going to call them over, which made everyone feel very nervous!
Those who spread rumors must have done such things that are so angry and resentful to others!
When the employees of Changjiang Industrial saw Wu Guangyao coming to the company, they greeted him one after another. This boss is the top wealthy man in Hong Kong and the idol in the minds of young people!
The "Three Musketeers" of Changjiang Industry came to the office together to prepare to report on their work.
"Boss, on the 10th of this month, there will be an official land in Happy Valley for auction, with an area of 110,000 square feet (15 acres), with a starting price of 600,000 Hong Kong dollars."
Wu Guangyao was happy that the starting price had dropped to 30% of the price in the first half of last year, and it was time for Changjiang Industrial to take action.
At this time, the land on Hong Kong Island was really "salary"!
It simply doesn't match the high housing prices, so it's nothing wrong to say that it's a deformed one.
"Have this place been photographed without a shot?" Wu Guangyao asked.
If there is no land that has not been sold, you have to think carefully.
After all, I know that there is still half a year left for myself!
Are you still afraid that there will be no chance, you can’t buy land that is cheap and has a good location?
"It just failed to sell at the beginning of last month. It is difficult for the most recent official location to be sold at one time. It has basically been sold for two or three times. Boss, do we still have to wait?"
"No need. From now on, we will buy all the three million funds we have in our hands into land as a company's land reserve in the future."
This official site is located at the southern end of the racecourse. Wu Guangyao thought that if he built a villa group, he would definitely make several times the profit.
With 15 acres of land, at least 30 villas can be built, and at least 10 million Hong Kong dollars can be sold.
The land price will not exceed HK$800,000, which can be regarded as a cheap one for Wu Guangyao.
Before the Hong Kong Island crisis, this land would have received 2 million Hong Kong dollars.
Later generations Zheng Yutong bought 40,000 square feet of Happy Valley land in 1952 and prepared to build a villa.
He often sighed, "It would be great if I bought the land at that time!"
People always hindsight, but at this time, real estate is considered the most profitable business;
Unlike the super rich people in later generations, almost all real estate developers!
The rich people during this period were very scattered, including finance, shipping, trade, retail, real estate, and public utilities.
As the first family among the four major families to enter real estate, Zheng Yutong never entered the real estate industry again after developing Happy Valley Villa.
I know that it was only in the late 1960s that real estate development was truly developed!
Otherwise, with his conditions, the head of the four major families would not be Li Chaoren’s turn!
For these rich people, the first pot of gold is often the hardest to get!
This is the fact. Li Chaoren started making plastic this year, and after seven years, he almost lost everything in the middle. It was not until 1967 that he took the lead in developing plastic flowers in Hong Kong Island that his business was truly on track and earned his real first pot of gold.
Ho Ying-dong is currently digging seaweed on the island, without food or fresh water, and is plagued by sea snakes. When he returned to Hong Kong Island in May, he found that the seaweed he dug was not enough and he even lost his savings. He had to make his first pot of gold during the Korean War.
The King of Shipbuilding opened a small trading company at this time. I heard that the office area was not more than 15 square meters, and there were four people crowded inside. Even when I went out, I needed a colleague to give in to me before I could get out.
Li Zhaoji and Guo Desheng are a little better. They do some big and small business deals, and their current net worth should not exceed HK$100,000.
Only Cheng Yutong should have a lot of wealth. In recent years, the gold business has been good and has made a lot of money. Although Chow Tai Fook belongs to his father-in-law, he also has a lot of shares.
Sometimes when Wu Guangyao thinks of these famous wealthy people in later generations, he feels very proud of his current situation and doesn’t know why!
It’s definitely not a gloating, it’s more of a sense of pride that I am much better than you!
The 3 million Hong Kong dollars in funds handed by Changjiang Industrial will naturally be bought into land during this period.
As for the funds required for subsequent construction, Wu Guangyao plans to take out a loan to sell off-the-sell houses, two strategies.
After all, I really can’t squeeze out the money and develop real estate!
Wu Guangyao then said to Li Xing: "You prepare for a trip to America at the end of the month. The main purpose is to find an architectural design firm, which is both for cooperation and learning. In the later stage, I plan to build 30 modern villas on the Happy Valley land."
"Okay, I plan to take a few designers to America together for some in-depth learning!"
Wu Guangyao nodded. Changjiang Industrial still has its own designer, but its level is not as high as that of European and American design firms.
......
"Guangyao, I seem to be giving birth, take me to the hospital!"
Wu Guangyao, who was sleeping, suddenly heard Lin Yueru's voice, and suddenly woke up.
The process has been demonstrated many times, so I will not waste time. Ping hugged Lin Yueru and came downstairs.
Li Cui had already woken up the security guard who was sleeping with Yi and prepared the vehicle.
When I arrived at the hospital, there was already someone waiting.
Of course, before leaving, Wu Guangyao asked someone to notify the hospital.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Wu Guangyao's closest relatives had already gathered in the high-end ward.
"Guangyao, who do you think he looks like?" Lin Yueru happily hugged Wu Guangyao's eldest son Wu Xianshuo and said.
She had a natural birth, but she didn't have much strength, but her maternal love was overwhelming and she couldn't let go of her love when she held her eldest son.
"As son, he is naturally like a mother!"
Wu Guangyao was relieved to be able to give birth to his eldest son.
It is said that only families who inherit the throne will have this idea, and Wu Guangyao naturally thought so.
"No, I want to make him look like you and be a capable person!" Lin Yueru thought of her husband's huge business empire, and she felt that it would be better for her son to be like his father and that she could inherit the family business in the future.
Wu Guangyao didn't say anything, who knows what will happen in the future!
Maybe the eldest son went to study in the United States and then turned into an entrepreneurial partner to invest in Apple. What should Microsoft do?
Or maybe I am not interested in doing business and like to be a scientist and engage in politics. What should I do?
"Yueru, do you want to take a break and take care of the children for us!" Zhou Xuefen said carefully.
Zhou Xuefen naturally pleased her great heroes like Lin Yueru, but in fact she wanted to hug her grandson even more.
When Lin Yueru heard this, she naturally knew what her mother-in-law meant and nodded!
Then the child passed it in the hands of Zhou Xuefen and Chu Fengyi. Wu Guangyao couldn't help but interrupt and said, "The child is still young, put it in the stroller!"
When the two of them heard this, they reluctantly put Wu Xianshuo in the stroller. Lin Youde also took back what he was about to say.
Wu Guangyao's eldest son, Wu Xianshuo, was born on January 3, 1950.
Wu Guangyao named his eldest son Wu Xianshuo according to his seniority of "Guangxian Yingmingcheng".
When the eldest son was born, Wu Guangyao took a good rest for seven days and accompanied Lin Yueru.
The executives of the company were also tactfully not coming to disturb him.
.........
Seven days later, Wu Guangyao needs to participate in the auction of the Happy Valley.
He took Shi Jun into the auction house, and Wu Guangyao was stunned. There were actually many real estate developers coming to bid.
Moreover, most of the Chinese merchants were found, and two of the four major families were brought to the He family and the Li family.
Wu Guangyao looked at Shi Jun and looked confused!
Shi Jun quickly explained: "Most of watching the fun are there, and many real estate developers will not participate in the auction, but more of them are looking at the situation!"
Wu Guangyao suddenly realized that a group of people watching the fun!
"Boss He, Boss Li, are here to bid for land today?" Wu Guangyao greeted He Shijian and Li Mingze.
"Look at the market, see if Boss Wu is interested in this piece of land today?" Li Mingze said first and asked Wu Guangyao back.
"Like you, look at this market! But I am a novice in real estate, and I may be shouting randomly later!" Wu Guangyao said haha.
This land was sold at HK$900,000 last time, but this time it started at HK$600,000, and there will obviously be someone to bid.
It depends on who will win!
After a few simple conversations, everyone returned to their seats.
Today, everyone is the opponent, and there is nothing to say!
At the beginning of the auction, the English auctioneer started bidding, pretending to be passionate, but in fact he was panicked!
