LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 107 Empire State Building!
The Wharf Group acquired the Murray Building plot at a high price of HK$5.6 million, with the average price being HK$67000 per square meter.
This price is not low even in first-tier cities in the 21st century.
What's more, it's still 1978.
Many reporters looked towards Wharf.
They all looked at the young man in the wheelchair.
Yang Ming, chairman of Imperial Group.
When the host of the Public Works Department announced that the bidding for the Murray Building plot was over.
After coming to shake hands with Yang Ming in person.
Many reporters came over.
I would like to interview Yang Ming and Ma Shimin.
Yang Ming was protected by bodyguards and security personnel, and he left here first.
Ma Shimin didn't say a word.
This piece of land is now ostensibly taken over by Wharf, but in fact it is taken over by the Imperial Group and will serve as the headquarters of the Imperial Group.
As for how to plan and so on, it is all decided by the Imperial Group.
What surprised Ma Shimin the most was that he originally thought that HK$5 million to acquire this piece of land was already very expensive. Unexpectedly, Black & Decker Real Estate offered HK$5.5 million.
If it weren't for Yang Ming's reminder, Wharf would never have been able to buy it at such a high price.
Yang Ming went out in a wheelchair.
Except for Li Jiacheng and Niu Bijian, all the Chinese and British people shook hands with Yang Ming and said hello before getting into the luxury car and leaving.
Yang Ming and Meris also got into the Rolls-Royce.
When they were in the car, Meris was also very surprised and asked: "Boss, how did you know the price of Black & Decker Real Estate?"
how do you know?
Yang Ming saw the results in the newspaper in advance.
If it weren't for him, it stands to reason that it should be Black & Decker Real Estate, that is, the four major families who jointly won this piece of land in Murray Building.
Whether it was jointly developed by the four companies, or it was eventually sold to the Bank of China in Hong Kong, as happened historically.
For the four major families of Black & Decker Real Estate, if they share it equally, they will make a lot of profits.
Now that Yang Ming has appeared, the four major families no longer have such an opportunity.
"My guess."
Yang Ming guessed it.
Merith still couldn't believe it.
If that's really the case, then the boss is truly a god.
"Mailisi, what did Mr. Li talk to you just now?"
Before bidding.
Li Jiacheng and Meris chatted there for more than ten minutes.
Yang Ming naturally wouldn't listen to what these two people were talking about.
From Li Jiacheng's glum and embarrassed face, it could be seen that he was disappointed.
Ma Shimin and Mai Lisi, whom Li Jiacheng had taken a fancy to many years ago, actually ended up in Yang Ming's hands.
"Boss, Mr. Li asked me why I joined the Imperial Group? He thought you promised me great benefits," Meris said.
Melisi and Li Jiacheng had already known each other when they were in Singapore.
Before this, he had always felt that Li Jiacheng was a very capable Chinese businessman.
Now he is a little disappointed. Fortunately, he didn't agree to join Changchun Industrial Group rashly.
"Then what do you say?"
"I said that the boss didn't promise me any benefits. I came to the company and recommended myself. At that time, Mr. Li was very disappointed."
Li Jiacheng is disappointed?
Of course.
Yang Ming knew that this might just be the beginning for Li Jiacheng.
First, he secretly acquired Wharf, but was swallowed up by Yang Ming. Then he tried to take over Hutchison Whampoa through his relationship with Shen Bi, but was eventually swallowed up by Yang Ming.
Later, when Yang Ming bought a stake in Huifeng Bank and became the major shareholder and director of Huifeng Bank, Li Jiacheng felt scared when his relationship with Shen Bi became closer and closer.
He himself is a meat eater and a Chinese, and he understands the Chinese very well.
He felt that Yang Ming was also his kind of person.
The most important thing is that he is not familiar with Yang Ming at all.
This young man appeared as if out of nowhere.
Yang Ming was not in the car and continued to talk to Meris about Li Jiacheng.
"The land of Murray House has been taken over by Wharf, and then Wharf will set up Murray House Company, privatize it and sell it to our Empire Group. My idea is to build the highest building in Hong Kong, Asia, and the world on Murray House. The building serves as the headquarters of our Empire Group in Xiangjiang."
Last night, Meris already knew that Yang Ming was going to take over the Meili Building land to build the headquarters of the Empire Group.
Melis also strongly agrees.
Merith said: "Boss, I heard that many people died in the Murray Building. When building the Empire State Building, you really don't have to worry about feng shui or hauntings."
"Feng shui? Haunted? It is indeed like that now, but it will be different in the future."
Chen Zhenhua drove back to the mid-level villa in Repulse Bay.
Yang Ming and Mai Lisi got out of the car.
Yang Jirong and his wife learned that Yang Ming had gone to bid for the Meili Building plot.
"Peter, how was the bidding?" Li Yufang asked.
"Mommy, we were lucky enough to win Black & Decker Real Estate. However, the details will be on the news soon."
The evening newspaper will be available by then.
It's just that the results are different from what Yang Ming saw last night.
"Peter, the location of Murray House is indeed good and it is a prime location in Xiangjiang. But are you really not worried about the feng shui and haunting issues there?"
Yang Jirong came over and asked.
As for Murray House, just like Happy Valley, many citizens in Hong Kong know about it, and it has even been reported in newspapers and periodicals.
From Yang Jirong's point of view, his son wanted to buy the place to build the headquarters of the Imperial Group, and he felt that he had to think carefully about it.
"Daddy, don't worry. I'll ask a Feng Shui master to take a look at it then. There should be no problem."
Yang Ming knew that in history, the Bank of China Building in Hong Kong was not only a landmark building, but he had never heard of anything happening to it. On the contrary, the Bank of China was one of the three largest banknote-issuing banks in Hong Kong.
However, Yang Ming also heard in his previous life that the Feng Shui fight there was fierce.
For example, the Changjiang Industrial Group Building in Li Jiacheng, the Heung Kong Hui Feng Bank Building, and the Bank of China Building in Hong Kong are all three parties that have hired many powerful Feng Shui masters to crack the Feng Shui of each party in order to attract more wealth.
However, from the perspective of the three parties, the three parties are evenly matched.
One represents Xiangjiang Huazui.
One represents British capital.
One represents Chinese capital.
Now the emergence of Yang Ming has naturally replaced the Bank of China Building in Hong Kong and built the Empire Group.
Even then, there will still be three parties.
"Alright."
Yang Jirong knew that he could not help his son in other aspects.
Let me remind my son about this.
Wait until Ma Shimin drove to the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.
Yang Ming, Ma Shimin, and Mai Lisi were in the study room talking about the construction of the Empire State Building.
Ma Shimin is also very concerned.
As for when Wharf will establish Murray House Company and privatize it to the Imperial Group, there will be no problem.
Now that the Imperial Group has absolute control over Wharf, the remaining small shareholders have no say or decision-making power at all.
"Boss, if that's the case, we have to hire architectural design masters from all over the world to design the Empire State Building." Melis said.
