Chapter 453 [The King of the Central District]

June, Hong Kong Island.

The Hong Kong government announced that it would auction the coastal "land king" in the Central District, which immediately attracted the attention of US-funded consortiums, European consortiums, Japanese consortiums, and Jardine Massachusetts. The US-funded consortiums even took the stance of winning.

As housing prices in Hong Kong Island continue to soar, rents have also stimulated the soaring land prices, which have repeatedly hit new highs in official land auctions in the first half of the year;

When the Kowloon ‘Lord King’ Sushibalidao land auctioned in March, Cheung Kong Real Estate auctioned at a premium of less than 40%.

At the later auctions, the premium of each piece of land was basically more than 40%, and some were as high as 70%.

This time, the Hong Kong government took out the coastal land in the Central District, and its purpose was obvious, just to take advantage of the opportunity to buy high prices;

This land is the land of Jardine Hall Building in his previous life, but this life is destined to be out of reach with Jardine Hall!

The total area of ​​the "Di Wang" in the central area is 53,000 square feet, with a starting price of HK$130 million, which is equivalent to HK$2,450 per square foot;

It can be said that the starting price alone exceeds the transaction price of Kowloon's "Land King", which shows how valuable the coastal land in the Central District is.

Kessek told a group of executives of Land Company: "We must get this land. Zhong District was originally our Land's nest. Over the years, with the insertion of Chinese Wu Guangyao, our property in Zhong District was actually caught up by him. This is simply a shame!"

The senior executives of Land Land did not say anything, and Kessick suddenly felt like he was thinking that the ball was deflated!

The morale is gone, which is what the British capital is feeling now facing Wu Guangyao.

Kessek suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "What price do you think we can afford to auction this land?"

Newbijian, who has just been promoted to Jardine Mathematics, said: "Land Land has many properties in the Central District, but these properties need to be demolished and rebuilt to reflect their value. If the Central District reconstruction plan is launched, it is expected to require more than HK$1 billion. Then, regarding the auction of the Central District's "Land King", I think HK$280 million is our limit."

An executive echoed: "There is also the American consortium that is bound to win. If only the American consortium is our opponent, we can also make the auctioneer drop hammer faster; but everyone knows that Wu Guangyao will definitely participate in this kind of "land king" auction, and he has always only bid on the first hammer, so we have no chance to take advantage of it!"

The executive said this, making the executives in the conference room blush, especially Kessek!

Wu Guangyao seemed to know that Jardinei knew this move, so he did this kind of behavior. It was simply a strange thing in the auction hall!

Kessek finally said helplessly: "Okay, the meeting is over!"

Wu Guangyao said to Shi Jun: "This Hong Kong government is addicted to selling land!"

Shi Jun smiled and said, "That's not it! In the first half of this year, the Hong Kong government has auctioned 28 pieces of land, creating a historical record of Hong Kong Island. These 28 pieces of land have brought a full HK$1.2 billion in revenue to the Hong Kong government. I just don't know how much of this fund has been used by Hong Kong citizens!"

Wu Guangyao waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this. Hong Kong does not have to pay taxes to the UK. The cost of garrison is not the expenses of the Hong Kong government, so this money will still be used on Hong Kong Island. The British make money on Hong Kong Island, and they use foreign companies to make it through. The Hong Kong government just provides these foreign companies with convenience."

Shi Jun nodded and sighed: "I can imagine that if the boss did not come to Hong Kong Island, then we Chinese would lose much wealth on Hong Kong Island. It is almost the 1970s. Apart from the boss, we Chinese have no one who can compete with British capital."

It’s not that Shi Jun sighed that in the auction hall in the first half of this year, only 10 of the land were auctioned by Chinese;

The 10 pieces of land that Chinese people photographed and 6 pieces of land were auctioned by Wu Guangyao's Cheung Kong Real Estate, including Kowloon's "Land King".

It is conceivable that without Wu Guangyao's appearance, how much rent will be paid in the future and how much money will be paid for foreigners.

Wu Guangyao said: "After taking this land, we will start construction immediately. I plan to build the tallest building in Asia with a height of 55 floors."

Shi Jun was shocked and soon realized that this building was destined to be out of reach with Changjiang Industrial!

Only the boss’s own funds can have such a big deal.

......

On the day of the auction, nearly hundreds of reporters were waiting outside the auction site, which shows that the influence of the "land king" in the middle area is so high that even in the Kowloon Tourism Zone, it cannot be compared.

"Mr. Wu, can you accept an interview?" Undoubtedly, the big focus of these reporters today is Wu Guangyao.

Wu Guangyao just walked to the crowd and gave a simple interview.

"Mr. Wu, if you take this piece of land this time, then the position of the king of the central area of ​​the land will definitely be yours. How do you feel?" said a reporter.

"I never thought about this problem! However, the Land, which has lived in Hong Kong's real estate giant for a long time, has not achieved satisfactory development performance in the past 10 years, and its momentum is not even as good as the rising Pacific Foreign Company. I remembered the famous Sir Chatta who first came to Hong Kong from the UK, but was just an unknown poor man. He relied on diligence, shrewdness and opportunity to develop and become a wealthy man, founded Hutchison Whampoa, built land, and set up Hong Kong lamps. This is the real enterprising man." Wu Guangyao's implication is that the current development of Land is too conservative, and there is nothing comparable to an enterprising man like me!

The reporters suddenly felt like they were injected with chicken blood. Isn’t Wu Guangyao’s words just to allow everyone to develop at will?

Of course, it is impossible for everyone to develop randomly. Oriental Media Group is not a vegetarian, but a company!

After entering the auction hall, receiving the license plate, Wu Guangyao found a seat and sat down, waiting for the auction to be held!

Today's "land king" may be very eager for the auction, and everyone is not in the mood to talk, and they are all waiting for the auctioneer to enter.

After a while, the auctioneer and the Hong Kong government came to the venue together, and the auctioneer explained the rules to everyone.

The auction is officially held!

At the beginning, Wu Guangyao did not bid, because Jardine did not bid either. In Wu Guangyao's opinion, only Jardine had the opportunity to collude with the auctioneer, so the rest of the bid did not reach the second hammer. Wu Guangyao was not worried that the auctioneer would drop the hammer too quickly!

In addition, the historical auction price of this land is HK$258 million, so today's results are only high or low.

"Chengshi Real Estate No. 12...HK$200 million!" The auctioneer's excited voice came!

This is the first time Wu Guangyao called the price, so the auctioneer was of course excited!

"Land Company No. 16...HK$220 million!"

"Mobil Consortium No. 8...HKD 25 million!"

When the auctioneer saw the three seed players joining the battle, he immediately increased his tone a lot!

After 20 minutes

"The third time of HK$290 million...... the deal was completed! Congratulations to Cheung Kong Real Estate!"

No surprise, Wu Guangyao got the land he had always dreamed of!

I just don’t know what the reaction will be after Land Land Company loses its own land ‘should’!
Chapter completed!
