After only a few days in Hangzhou, Yang Dongxu flew to Hong Kong. Compared to Bai Feng, who talked about getting married first, Fu Chaming's wedding was a bit more urgent. It was very much like a rural blind date, where one person meets and looks at each other, and the other person gives a gift. What follows is the feeling of getting married and doing business.
The hotel where the wedding was held was the Peninsula Hotel, known as the "Lady of the Orient". The Peninsula Hotel was built in 1922 and was once the command post of the British troops stationed in Hong Kong. During World War II, it was used as a command post by Japan and was later returned to its original location. Owner.
In 1994, two years ago, an expansion project was carried out on the original basis. A 30-story new wing was built on the north side. There is a heliport on the top floor, which allows important guests to directly use helicopters to travel to and from the Hong Kong International Airport, or to take a tour. Over Hong Kong.
This is a wholly foreign-owned hotel, which is naturally British-owned. Hong Kong will return to the motherland next year, and the mainland has just celebrated the National Day. Many people attending the wedding will inevitably have to hold a wedding in such a hotel. Think more.
And Yang Dongxu is naturally the one who needs to think more. Although his relationship with the wealthy family is not as good as such a national event, the friction between the two parties is not well known to everyone, but at least they are well aware of each other.
Yang Dongxu is now a big real estate developer in Hong Kong. This does not mean how many office buildings and residential buildings he has developed in Hong Kong. Rather, he has been crazy about buying houses in Hong Kong in the past two years, and has definitely reached the level of Yang Bancheng. He has never bought land to build a house in Hong Kong, but he is more like a real estate developer than a real estate developer, with countless houses in his hands.
The biggest competitor with Yang Dongxu is naturally British capital, because before Hong Kong's return, not to mention that all Hong Kong's wealth was British, but at least British capital accounted for a large proportion, and real estate was the focus.
In fact, it was these people who inflated the Hong Kong real estate bubble in the first place. Even though the top management of Hong Kong has decided to implement one country, two systems when Hong Kong returns, these people must be uneasy. So if they want to sell their money at a good price, they will naturally blow up the bubble. Blow it up a bit and then pass the blame on to others.
But the involvement of Yang Dongxu, a troublemaker, made those who originally wanted to escape hesitate. Because Yang Dongxu did not conceal his identity, his circle and connections at all. He also called on a large number of people to come to Hong Kong to buy real estate, as if they wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and wait for the government to take over it at a high price.
This makes the foreign investors who originally wanted to blow up the bubble and withdraw, the sober ones have already withdrawn, the greedy ones are still hesitant, and they are even going crazy with jealousy.
The residential building that was just sold yesterday has increased by 10% today. If it is just an apartment worth 1 million, and you suddenly lose 100,000, you may just feel distressed and regret that you sold it too early. But with assets worth hundreds of millions, it would be crazy to think that tens of millions would be lost all of a sudden.
Especially after spending an extra 10 million, I bought back the fixed assets that I had sold. I kept them in my hands for more than a month. The house prices increased by 10%. The house I originally bought at a high price was resold again. , and ended up selling more than 10 million yuan more than before. This was not just jealousy and madness, it was simply an obsession that couldn't be extricated.
In such an environment, housing prices in Hong Kong, which are already not low, are rising crazily like a bubble. In just one year in 1995, they have already increased by 50%. This year is even crazier than last year. Just after October, the real estate growth has already been It exceeds 70%, and doubling before 1997 seems to be foreseeable.
So at this time, everyone was going crazy to buy a house, and they were holding back their houses for fear of losing money early on. In addition, there is news from nowhere that rich mainlanders will purchase properties in Hong Kong in large quantities to set up corporate headquarters after Hong Kong returns. Yang Dongxu is just one of the representatives who started early.
This has made the already crazy real estate market crazy. The most popular thing in the casino is not the customers who lose money and leave immediately, but the customers who have already lost money after winning, because no matter how much they win, they will end up vomiting twice as much. come out.
So looking at the increasingly crazy Hong Kong property market, Yang Dongxu originally had a headache about how to raise more funds. As a result, I found that I can’t buy a house with money now, even if I pay a high price. Everyone is holding back on selling their houses. Whether it is the government taking over or the wealthy mainland businessmen taking over, it seems that everyone who owns a house is full of confidence.
The source of their confidence is that they feel that Hong Kong is the most prosperous, while the mainland is very backward. Rich people definitely want to live in the prosperous Hong Kong and set up their own companies in Hong Kong, because compared to the mainland, Shenzhen or the Magic City has just developed. Hong Kong is the shining pearl of the East and one of the international metropolitan and international financial centers.
Therefore, if the mainland wants to enter the international market, Hong Kong is the best springboard. Especially after Hong Kong's return, the government will have a certain degree of control over it. There is no place more suitable to use it as a springboard.
So for those who are gamblers, if they don’t have confidence, what kind of confidence do they have? For the sake of profit, businessmen can even throw away their dignity, let alone the law. With such a convincing reason, how long should we wait before taking a gamble?
So now Yang Dongxu wants to use money to support foreign businessmen who want to run away, or to buy more properties from residents to reduce the losses of ordinary people after the bubble bursts, because they simply sell the properties in their hands.
"Since when did you have a relationship with a rich family?" Yang Dongxu asked in surprise as Bai Feng appeared in front of him in an evening dress.
Although the expansion project of the Peninsula Hotel has not yet been completed, today they made an exception to stop the work for the wealthy family and let them book the venue to hold a wedding banquet. This was a courtesy that had never been given since the completion of the Peninsula Hotel, so that this hasty wedding was also Call it the wedding of the century.
In addition, the rich family seemed to want to show off their muscles at this wedding. Everyone in the rich family who had secretly separated their families used their own connections. Not to mention the rich in Hong Kong, many rich people from all over the world came.
Originally Yang Dongxu's female companion at the wedding was Zhou Ya. After all, Zhou Ya happened to have time in the Mainland. Due to the relationship between the two families, it would be rude for her not to come.
But when she learned that the wedding was held at the Peninsula Hotel, and that the traditional wedding recommended by Yang Dongxu was only partially adopted in terms of clothing, and the entire wedding still followed Western procedures, Zhou Ya declined and did not come again.
As for bringing Chen Hong or other female companions over. It would be inappropriate for him to bring any female companion without Zhou Ya, so he simply came over alone.
Although he was alone and did not know many world-class celebrities, Yang Dongxu did not feel lonely. Although he has no acquaintances in the celebrity world, everyone in the entertainment industry knows about him as a big boss.
For such a wedding, male and female celebrities who want to be famous must be keen to get in and see if they can catch a big fish, so naturally there are many people from the entertainment industry, and there is even no shortage of big-name celebrities.
Almost all of Hainer's namesakes and people who have been around in Hong Kong circles came here without missing a single one, so they naturally came over to say hello when they saw the big boss like him.
Yang Dongxu dealt with it for a long time, talking to a few familiar people, and then Fu Decai went to entertain others. He accidentally saw Bai Feng in the crowd.
"Why, you have a few Hong Kong friends, but I can't have friends?" Bai Feng, who looked elegant in an evening dress, was holding a goblet and looking at him with a teasing smile at the corner of her mouth.
"No matter how lenient I am, can I still control who you make friends with?" Yang Dongxu replied nonchalantly.
Seeing that the other party really didn't care, he was just surprised because he didn't know she would come before, and didn't mean anything else. Bai Feng rolled his eyes and said, "Don't think too much, the domestic base station is about to start construction." Well, I'm inspecting and discussing technology with a Hong Kong telecommunications company these days, and I happened to meet the other party who also invited me, so naturally I want to take it."
"Do you want me to think too much, or do you not want me to think too much?" Yang Dongxu looked at the dull expression on Bai Feng's face without any fluctuation.
It's okay if Bai Feng doesn't explain. This explanation makes it difficult for people to think about it. You happen to be on a business trip in Hong Kong, so why does the rich family give you, a stranger, an invitation to attend the wedding?
Nowadays, the conflict between the rich family and Yang Dongxu is well known to everyone. But there are a lot of rumors circulating, and the most crazy rumor is that the rich family wants to leave his big ship and go it alone, and the main focus of development is still in the mainland.
Now that Bai Feng is relying on the Wei family, it is difficult for people not to think about her explanation. The rich family invited her here just to express their goodwill and prepare to build their own network of contacts in the mainland, and the past conflicts between him and the Wei family were nothing. secret. So the enemy of the enemy is one's friend.
"You are still as smart as ever." Bai Feng smiled and raised his glass in toast to Yang Dongxu.
This sentence still has two meanings. One is that Yang Dongxu has a calm heart and sees through her trick. The other is that Yang Dongxu is smart enough. As soon as he sees her appearing at the wedding of the rich family, he understands the relationship between her and the rich family. The relationship between. In short, the methods of sowing discord continue.
Yang Dongxu glanced at Bai Feng, gathered the wine glass in his hand and took a sip without saying anything. She was the one who showed her true temperament when Yan Jing was helping her, and now she is the one who is seducing others like an old fox.
A woman's heart alone is beyond the reach of a needle in the ocean. Yang Dongxu is too sensible to explore the heart of a beautiful and intelligent woman without curiosity.
"Is that the wedding dress you recommended to me? It looks pretty good." Yang Dongxu didn't want to talk to Bai Feng to avoid losing more brain cells, but the other party didn't seem to let him go.
"We are in a hurry, and the dress preparation is not good enough. When you are waiting for your wedding, both the dress and the wedding will be so luxurious that you can't imagine. The ancient emperors who married their daughters are probably not as good as you." Yang Dongxu calmed down and said, After all, she is a customer, and I still want to make money from her, he comforted himself in his heart.
