Chapter 582 [Central's second lineup! 】
Wu Guangyao's convoy came to Hutchison Building, and his mouth couldn't help but raise his smile slightly, and his smile floated in words;
Because I was in the heart of Central, I harvested the second building chain.
With Xuechang Street as the north-south dividing line, the Wu family has two building chains in the heart of the central ring;
The first building chain (west): consists of six buildings located on Queen's Avenue, Devot Road and Connois Road, Evergrande Building in Queen's Avenue, Chinese Walking Area, Yangtze River Building, Lane Caffe Building on Devot Road, Global Building on Connois Road, Cheung Shi Building;
The six existing buildings are not the ultimate form of the first building chain, there is also one high-altitude development right on the Metro Central Station (not tendered yet), and three future trading square buildings (not tendered yet);
After all these ten buildings are included, it is the first building chain in the heart of the Central Ring Road.
The second building chain (East): The building chain east of Xuechang Street is the building chain that has been connected to each other in recent years without realizing it;
First of all, the Hilton Hotel (the US-owned company Yonggao) acquired by Hutchison Whampoa is very mysterious because it is sandwiched between the HSBC Building and the Bank of China Building in its previous life, which is the Yangtze River Industrial Headquarters Building in its previous life (Li Chaoren's old nest);
Secondly, Hutchison Building (Sakhsin Road), located north of the Bank of China Building (right in front of the coast), Hutchison Building was delivered and used in 1975 and is 22 stories high. In his previous life, Hutchison Building was directly in front of the Bank of China Building, with a better geographical location, but it is only 22 stories high, and the Bank of China Building has 70 stories high, so from the Victoria Harbor, Hutchison Building is like a dwarf.
Finally, Cheung Kong Holdings, located in front of HSBC, has 48% of the equity.
The second building chain in the heart of the central area, currently only has three buildings, which are not the final form;
If the upper high altitude development rights of the subway Golden Bell Station are not involved in the bidding (give it to China Ziwuhu, and invest in Central Station).
Then Wu Guangyao can definitely obtain the second section of the Golden Bell Station as a savior;
It turned out that Kim Jong's second section was originally invested by a consortium composed of Cheng Yu-Tong (Xinkai Real Estate), Chen Zengxi (Henglong Real Estate), Liao Chuangxing and others, but the land price was 1.8 billion Hong Kong dollars; however, because it was located in a prime location and the approval procedures were cumbersome, it was delayed again and again, and it was delayed to the Sino-British negotiations;
During the Sino-British negotiations, the markets and stock markets on Hong Kong Island fell so much that it was very rare (larger than in sixties and seven years);
As a result, the bank refused to borrow money, and the government refused to lower the price (replenish the land price). A business that "earned profit" (earned profit) was a waste of money;
The new consortium could not pay out the money, so the Hong Kong government had to take it back. After the Sino-British negotiations were over, it was acquired by a consortium composed of Japanese capital, Nanyang, Xinhe and others;
The two famous buildings in the later generations of Benda Center (renamed Libao Center in the 21st century) are part of the rights and interests of this section.
Some people say that Chen Zengxi, Zheng Yutong and others "caught the deer but didn't know how to take off the horns." Perhaps this consortium gave up after winning the bid.
And Wu Guangyao has already thought about it. It would be better to take this bid from several people by then than to return it to the Hong Kong government!
After calculation, there are at least five Grade A office buildings in the second building chain of the Wu family in the heart of the central area;
They are the Hilton Hotel (Chenghe Industrial Headquarters in the previous life), Hutchison Building, Hong Kong Club Building, and two buildings in Section 2 of Admiralty (Two buildings in the previous life of Benda Center);
Among the five buildings, the Hong Kong Capitol is currently under construction, and after completion is a 41-story building;
Although Cheung Kong Industrial only has 48% of its equity, Hong Kong will be a loose organization and the building is still managed by Cheung Kong Industrial.
If the two buildings of Hilton Hotel and Hutchison Building are rebuilt, they have to be said to be the famous "Feng Shui War" in Hong Kong in their previous lives;
The protagonists of this Hong Kong Feng Shui war in his previous life are: Bank of China Building, HSBC Building, Yangtze River Industrial Building (Li Chaoren's Nest)
Among the three protagonists, HSBC was the first to take root in Central, and used auspicious beast lions, lobby hollows, etc. to carefully create a powerful Feng Shui bureau, and the company achieved stable development for many years;
In 1978, HSBC pushed the HSBC Building to reconstruction, and the fourth generation of HSBC Building was completed in 1985, namely the Oil Drilling Platform Building;
But with the arrival of the "scrambler" Bank of China Building, HSBC could not laugh.
In 1982, Bank of China invited the top Chinese architect I.M. Pei to design and then build the Bank of China Building.
From the appearance, the architectural style of the Bank of China Building is unique, consisting of several huge triangles. From a distance, it looks like a sharp sword with three blades rising from the ground. These three cold blades point to the British army's camp, the Governor's Office and HSBC.
It’s okay to have a military camp, but it is rumored that after the completion of the Bank of China Building, the then Hong Kong Governor Youde died suddenly due to a heart attack (the only one who died in office), and the two subsequent Hong Kong Governors were also in poor health;
On the other hand, HSBC's performance suddenly declined, and its stock price plummeted, and its headquarters far away in the UK were greatly affected.
Therefore, HSBC Bank, which faces the blade of the Bank of China Building, is no longer calm.
The next year, two huge steel cannons were set up on the roof of HSBC Bank, taking the meaning of "fire overcomes gold" in the five elements to deal with the blade of the Bank of China Building;
What is amazing is that HSBC's stock price has stabilized and its performance has continued to rebound.
In the late 1990s, the Yangtze River Group Center was located between the "Bank of China Building and HSBC Bank" and finally, at the suggestion of Feng Shui masters, a building with a shield on all sides was built, with an appearance that was airtight and like a fortress. It also cleverly avoided the relative position of the "Bank of China" in height. It also used all bulletproof glass, which was cautious, but fortunately it was safe and sound after completion.
In this life, it’s Wu Guangyao’s turn to break this situation!
As the saying goes, one mountain does not allow two tigers, unless one male and one female.
Everyone is rich and powerful, gathering in a small place in Central Hong Kong, so naturally there is a fight between dragons and tigers.
The Hilton Hotel is sandwiched between HSBC and Bank of China Building. If you don’t rebuild it carefully, it will probably have some impact on the Wu family (worry), although it is only one of Hutchison’s foreign companies!
At the same time, in the era of Judezon, Hutchison Building only planned 22 floors, which was a waste of good land (right in front of the Bank of China);
So in the 1990s or early 21st century, it must be rebuilt;
The reconstruction of the two buildings is closely related to the Bank of China Building!
Bank of China Building is 70 floors high and HSBC Bank is 46 floors high. So how many floors should the redevelopment of Hilton Hotel be higher?
The headquarters building of the Yangtze River Center in the previous life was 60 floors high, and Li Chaoren dared not surpass the Bank of China Building;
So does Wu Guangyao dare?
Definitely dare!
Even if the reconstruction of the Hilton Hotel is no higher than 70 floors, then the reconstruction of Hutchison Building will have to higher than 70 floors;
One of the two buildings must be taller than the Bank of China Building!
It is related to the Feng Shui of the Wu family, so it can only be taken as the right person!
Chapter completed!
