Wednesday, September 10, is the time to break ground.
The construction site of 'Nantian Garden' in Happy Valley is preparing for the opening ceremony at an auspicious time in the morning.
Changjiang Real Estate specially laid out a red carpet and built a podium, which was quite grand;
Because everyone has been notified that a distinguished guest is coming today.
Not far away, seven or eight community members were watching all this. They were the people hired by the boss to cause trouble.
"It's quite grand. I'll make it more lively for you later!" A scar-faced leader mocked.
"Brother Bao, we are just a few people, can't we suppress them?"
"You know what P, we have a guy on our hands. As long as we show ferocity, those people will definitely be scared. When the time comes, we will severely humiliate the boss named Lin. MD, ask us to bid, but don't give How can such a good thing happen if you do the work for us!"
"Brother Bao is right! But Brother Bao, there is also that old guy Huang Shun attending the opening ceremony today. Will he come to interfere?"
"We're not here to fight, we're just here to scare the man named Lin and make him lose face. Do you understand? I'm not asking you to kill people as soon as you come up, but to follow me and cause a scene, and then leave after making a fuss."
"I understand, just follow Brother Bao and do everything!"
As time went by, Brother Bao and his group did not notice that there were some "unknown persons (plainclothes)" at the construction site.
Around eight o'clock in the morning, a boy accidentally dropped his weapon, which immediately attracted the attention of the Chinese plainclothes police. Good guy, when they saw it was a knife, several plainclothes quickly surrounded him.
"Don't move!"
"You fucking are..."
Before Brother Bao finished speaking, he was frightened by the muzzles of several black guns. Several other boys were so frightened that they dropped their knives. As the "ding-dong-dang" sounded, even the British police superintendent came to check the situation. .
"Arrest him quickly, the Hong Kong Governor is coming soon!" the superintendent said hurriedly. If the security force around the Hong Kong Governor sees it, he will definitely pursue it deeply. This is something that even a British police superintendent does not want to see, because this is his jurisdiction.
In this way, Brother Bao and others died before they left the army. Fortunately, this was the case. If they had really waited until the Hong Kong Governor came, they would not have been killed in prison.
Of course, even so, if the British police superintendent saw their knives, they would not be able to get away with a serious crime. The British would not believe that they were here to cause trouble for the organizer.
...
The other side.
The atmosphere was already high with the arrival of Sir Ho Tung on the scene;
Later, when Hong Kong Governor Ge Lianghong arrived at the scene with a large crowd of people and even reporters, the atmosphere was much more solemn.
Therefore, the entire opening ceremony is not just a matter of Yangtze Real Estate, but has been upgraded to a political incident.
As expected, the event quickly became a showpiece for the Hong Kong governor, publicizing many government measures.
It was not until he achieved his goal that Ge Lianghong remembered to say a few words to the protagonist Lin Zhichao.
"Mr. Lin is so young!" Ge Lianghong was also very surprised. Just now, from a distance, Lin Zhichao looked like he was in his twenties (dressed old-fashioned), but now, up close, he looks younger than he actually is.
Lin Zhichao immediately said respectfully: "Hello, Governor Ge Gang!"
He didn't have the strength to challenge the Hong Kong governor, and he didn't even have the chance to meet the chief executive of a foreign company. Although he didn't take it seriously in his heart, in fact, if he wanted to get along in Hong Kong, he had to look at the British, at least before 1978. Is such that.
Ge Lianghong said with a smile: "I heard them say that because of your measures, Hong Kong's real estate industry has turned around, and capital is willing to invest in real estate, thus improving Hong Kong's housing environment."
Lin Zhichao has indeed made a lot of noise in recent months. Although everyone has not yet reacted, layered sales have become quite popular.
"I am a businessman, so from my perspective, the most important thing is to mobilize funds and make capital willing to invest in the real estate industry. Only in this way can we achieve the possibility of 'home ownership'."
Ge Lianghong did not expect Lin Zhichao's words to be so high-level, but he still said: "Although many people in Hong Kong do not have housing today, many people who come to Hong Kong are only seeking temporary refuge and will return to the opposite side sooner or later. Therefore, there is no need to Worrying about housing.”
When he said this, he said it towards the reporters.
"Shua shua shua" reporters took photos and recorded Ge Lianghong's words.
Lin Zhichao secretly scolded Ge Lianghong as a fool, but he smiled in a flattering manner on his face.
The Governor and his entourage came for a very short time, only about 15 minutes, as if they were just for a show. Ge Lianghong probably said two things:
The first is to encourage capital reconstruction and housing construction, and appreciate 'strata sales' as a good improvement.
The second is that the housing shortage in Hong Kong is temporary, and those refugees will soon return to the mainland, so there is no need to worry.
Of course, Ge Lianghong still praised Lin Zhichao for his contribution to Hong Kong real estate, but it was obviously only an official statement.
On the contrary, after the Hong Kong Governor left, Ho Tung patted Lin Zhichao on the shoulder and said: "Young man, your future is limitless!" Then he got in the car and left.
In any case, Lin Chi-chao is in the limelight today. Tomorrow the Hong Kong media will publish "The Governor of Hong Kong attended the groundbreaking ceremony of the Happy Valley residential complex." Cheung Kong Properties and Lin Chi-chao will not be mentioned at all.
...
The next day, English newspapers published an article about Hong Kong Governor Ge Lianghong inspecting residential construction projects and expressing concern about Hong Kong's housing problems. The black and white photo did not have Lin Chi-chao's face, but Governor Ge Lianghong.
However, a Chinese newspaper published a "double photo" of Lin Zhichao being interviewed by Ge Lianghong, which immediately caused a great sensation.
People in the Chinese business community lamented that Lam Chi-chao had a strong background. Not only did Sir Robert Ho Tung personally attend, but he also invited the Governor of Hong Kong to attend the groundbreaking ceremony.
"This Lin Chi-chao is a real figure! He is already a businessman supported by the Bank of East Asia, and now he is favored by Sir Robert Ho Tung. Even the Governor of Hong Kong attended the opening of his construction site. He is really a very powerful young man."
"Which big family is he a child of, and he is so favored and respected by the boss?"
As the news spread, Lin Zhichao was even more surprised by the media and citizens than when he invented 'layering and staging'. In their view, it is as if the Governor of Hong Kong is like the sky, and it reflects the sorrow of the times.
If Lin Chi-chao invented 'stratification and staging', it only caused a gust of wind in the real estate industry; and now that the Hong Kong Governor attends the groundbreaking ceremony of his site, it is obvious that Lin Chi-chao has set off a gust of wind in the entire Hong Kong, of course only for literate people who read newspapers. .
........
Yangtze Real Estate.
All employees and management have not yet recovered from the fact that the Hong Kong Governor attended the groundbreaking ceremony. They really couldn't understand how their boss could be so powerful that he not only invited Sir Ho, but also the Governor of Hong Kong.
Of course, from their perspective, they certainly didn't understand that Ge Lianghong felt that this groundbreaking ceremony was an opportunity to put on a show. It coincided with Hong Kong's "housing shortage" and "high rents," and he needed to stand up and appease everyone.
Lin Zhichao called Huang Changhong to the office and said: "The trouble has been taken care of. You have to grasp the site tightly and don't make any mistakes. Also, the model house must be well done. This is the key to this project."
Huang Changhong immediately swore a promise: "Don't worry, boss, I will stick to this construction site without any mistakes. The model house will be completed beautifully, and buyers will praise it when they visit it."
Lin Zhichao nodded. The so-called model house this time is actually to build the first and second floors of the two buildings at the entrance. Then the shelves will be removed first. After the house is sold, the shelves will be re-erected and the upper four floors will be built. of tenement buildings.
As for the two one-story buildings, one will be used as a model house and the other will be used as a sales office, just to cope with the sales time of one or two weeks.
Since the time was set for New Year's Day in 1948, Lin Zhichao was not worried about Hong Kong's purchasing power.
"Okay, I will go to the construction site to inspect at any time."
"Okay, boss."
Huang Changhong also understands that the boss likes to inspect construction sites. What surprised him most is that the boss has a strong learning ability in construction. Now he feels that he is very good at it.
