Hong Kong's new giants

But he didn't dare to make a promise. After all, the price difference between the two parties would not be too big, and Milk International might raise the price.

Shudehui Supermarket has 35 supermarkets in Singapore and is the third largest supermarket brand in Singapore.

At present, the largest supermarket brand in Singapore is a supermarket under the Singapore Employees Fund, and the second largest supermarket brand is a supermarket under the 'Milk International'.

Dairy Milk International was the milk company of Heung Kong back then. After being acquired by Hongkong Land, it managed the retail business and so on.Later, Milk International was delisted in Hong Kong and went to Singapore to re-list.There are many assets under its umbrella, including 7-11 convenience stores in Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia, Wellcome supermarkets, etc., with businesses all over Asia.The Jardine Department has kept a low profile in Hong Kong over the years, but in fact they have always been in Asia, and their main business is in Asia.

To be honest, the Keswick family of the Jardine Department did not have much vision in business, and misjudged the timing several times.Let’s not talk about it a few times before. In the future, they will see the booming development of the mainland and start to invest heavily in the mainland. In fact, they have missed the best opportunity; later, they will invest heavily after 2020. I don’t know if this investment is correct. Lin Zuhui It is not known, after all, he only knows about 2023, but it must not be a very good time.

After thinking for a while, Lin Zuhui said: "Once Dairy Milk International completes the acquisition of Shudehui Supermarket, they will become the largest supermarket group in Singapore. This is their advantage, or determination. On the contrary, the number one supermarket in Singapore The group is a brand under the public fund, so as a Singaporean side, it is bound to not want Milk International to dominate."

Lu Wenqing's eyes lit up, and he immediately added: "The shareholders of Shoudehui Supermarket are people who are well-known in the new government and business circles, so at the same price, they will definitely consider us to take over."

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "So, you need some public relations activities. Of course, as far as the price is concerned, just be reasonable. Supermarkets may not be able to make a lot of money. Too high a price is not in our interest."

"Ok, I see!"

Next.

Lin Zuhui said: "The acquisition of Shoudehui Supermarket is a cooperation between Yeo Hiep Seng Group and Times Retail. Both of you should make full use of the advantages of brother companies. For example, sharing and enriching the supply chain, Yeoh Hiep Seng Group has local advantages, and Times Retail Retail has an industry advantage."

"Okay, boss!" Lu Wenqing, Gao Hongming and others said in unison.

This is not the first time Times Retail has entered Singapore. It has more than 100 convenience stores in Southeast Asia including Singapore. Yonghui Superstores has not entered Hong Kong and other places outside the mainland.At present, the development of Times Retail in Hong Kong and the mainland is still very good, especially the development in the mainland is relatively good.

Lin Zuhui continued: "This entry into the supermarket in Singapore is considered an accidental investment. If it wasn't for the intention of Shoudehui Supermarket, the group would not consider it. But since it has been done, it must be done well. Singapore has developed well. Southeast Asia Maybe try to get in."

Lu Wenqing responded: "After we acquired Shudehui Supermarket, we intend to maintain the current management for the time being, and adjust it according to the situation in the future... In terms of supply chain, the fruit supply chain of Shudehui Supermarket can supplement that of Xiangjiang; and Times Retail's Huaxia products can also complement the supply chain of Shoudehui Supermarket. The combination of strong companies can achieve good synergies.”

Everyone had a heated discussion. After all, the boss is here, who doesn't want to be active!

The acquisition of Shoudehui Supermarket is a good opportunity. Although Singapore is small and has a small population, it can springboard to Southeast Asia.

……

in the pool.

After swimming a few laps, Lin Zuhui stopped when he saw the scene on the shore.

I saw Li Zhi walking out of the villa slowly in a triangle one-piece swimsuit. Lin Zuhui had some impression of this swimsuit. It turned out to be the one she wore when she and Zhong Chuhong danced together in her previous life, but there was nothing around her lower body.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Li Zhi said expectantly, showing off his figure on the shore.

Although she knows that she is very attractive to men, but this man obviously does not lack all kinds of beauties, so she is also a little unconfident.

Lin Zuhui said: "Lean forward a little!"

Li Zhi did as he did, and with an 'ah' sound, he lost his balance and fell into the swimming pool.

I knew it was the result...

"woohoo"

Wet stockings are obviously very nice too!

While admiring Li Zhi, a beautiful woman walked out of the villa again. She wore a short suspender skirt and a white shirt with an open top. The corners of the shirt were knotted, revealing her waist.

Lin Zuhui left Li Zhi behind, swam to the shore, looked up at the style in the short skirt, it was...

He hugged Zhang Min's calves and put them into the swimming pool. Not to be outdone, the woman sank into the water and got up.

Wet temptation!

Zhang Min did not forget to comb back her shoulder-length short hair. She is still beautiful, but the years have only made her more charming, and Qimeng is still the teacher He.

Admiration was inevitable, but soon Lin Zuhui's eyes were once again attracted by the people walking on the shore.

With long legs, a handsome figure, and a beautiful face, this woman is also very good; the most important thing is that her cute and pitiful appearance always makes men unable to "devil" her.

As soon as she reached the shore, Lin Zuhui pulled her into the water.

Zhou Huimin was slightly frightened, and when she emerged from the water, she had an innocent and pitiful expression on her face.

"Brother Hui, I have prepared the swimsuit for a long time!" But he thought Lin Zuhui was not satisfied, so he said pitifully.

Lin Zuhui hooked her nose with a smile, and said, "I like to bully you, a woman, haha!"

Only then did Zhou Huimin realize that Lin Zuhui was teasing her, and then admiring her pitiful appearance, she couldn't help but threw herself on Lin Zuhui.

It's a pity that Lin Zuhui's reaction ability, no matter how close she is, it is impossible to realize it, under the circumstances of Lin Zuhui's thinking.

Sure enough, Zhou Huimin jumped directly into the water, and came out again in shock.

"Brother Hui"

Next, everyone played and chased each other in the swimming pool.

……

Two days later, a consortium formed by Yeoh Hiap Seng Group and Times Retail successfully took over the Shoudehui Supermarket, which became an important business news in Singapore.

Milk International.

President Fang Litu (Ron Floto) is furious in the office.

"What's going on? Our Milk International has not yet made a second quotation, and Shoudehui has finalized the deal so quickly?"

Vice President Guo Bojun, a Singaporean, said: "It is said that some people were worried that Milk International would acquire Soudehui Supermarket and become the largest supermarket in Singapore, resulting in market monopoly. So, they intervened."

"It's disgusting! This is a very bad behavior, not a normal business behavior, I want to sue them! Who is it?"

Faced with the roar of listing, Guo Bojun was secretly happy in his heart, because he was the most promising person to take over Dairy Milk International; if Fang Litu left Dairy Milk International, he would become the first Singaporean to serve as the president of Dairy Milk International.

"I'm afraid it's useless, but it will affect our reputation. First, they have done it very secretly, and the public opinion has already favored them, worrying that we will create a monopoly; second, we have delayed the second bid, and the first benefit shareholders will feel They have no problem doing this; thirdly, the price offered by the Yeoh Hiap Seng Group is very reasonable, a little higher than our first bid."

Fang Litu calmed down immediately, and said with regret: "We could have given this price! The first benefit of the acquisition is what the headquarters really wanted to see, but now it is lost in our hands. Alas, the supermarkets in Singapore have become saturated. , can only be expanded through mergers and acquisitions, a missed opportunity!"

In fact, Fang Litu was worried about losing his status.

"It is said that Lin Zuhui came to Singapore to hold the battle in person. It seems that Times Retail is bound to win this time, and it is almost impossible for us to compete." Guo Bojun persuaded.He is still his own boss at the moment, so he can't show too much.

Fang Litu's eyes lit up, isn't this the best excuse for the headquarters!

In this world, there is still someone who can defeat the world's richest man, so it is only natural that he lost this time.

However, Fang Litu was worried again: "Times Retail has already developed in the Mainland and Xiangjiang. Once they focus on the fat meat in Southeast Asia, I am afraid that not only supermarkets, but also their Cistol convenience stores will expand. At that time, the We have a huge impact."

Guo Bojun nodded. He felt that Times Retail's entry into Singapore's supermarkets has gone very well.

……

Before returning to Hong Kong, Lin Zuhui held a family meeting with Li Zhi, Zhang Min and Zhou Huimin.

"This time, I have planned a series of development plans for Wise Real Estate. You should take note of them today." In the study, Lin Zuhui said.

At this time, the three women deliberately changed into office · OL clothes, which is quite beautiful.

It's a pity that Lin Zuhui won't buy property wisely, because he doesn't want too many people to know about his relationship with the three daughters.

Of course, Zhizhi Real Estate has several talents introduced by Lin Zuhui. After all, he needs to support the business growth of the three daughters.

"Well, let's remember it!" Li Zhi said that he was holding a pen and paper, with a serious and eager expression.

Lin Zuhui said: "First, upgrade Wise Real Estate to 'Wise Group'. The group's current total assets are about 160 billion and liabilities are 10 billion, so it is very reasonable to have another 50 billion Hong Kong dollars in debt. Follow-up loans will be used to greatly expand the scope of business , Investment property assets.”

The three women became excited. They understood that with the support of this man, it's nothing to be in debt of 100 billion. Anyway, he will not refuse to save him.

After Li Zhi wrote it down, he said: "Debt does not mean taking out a loan right away. There is an investment project, and then a mortgage investment. That's what it means!"

"clever!"

Li Zhi was happy.

Then, Lin Zuhui said: "Second, in terms of stock investment, CapitaLand, DBS Bank, and United Overseas Bank increased their holdings to 3%, and BreadTalk tried to get a 10% stake."

This is stock investment. Logically speaking, these stocks can have an increase of more than five times, and BreadTalk can even increase by dozens of times. Unfortunately, the plate is small; but CapitaLand, DBS Bank, and UOB Bank are all Stock with a large plate.

Lin Zuhui doesn't need much memory from his previous life, and he also knows that these three stocks have grown very well, because the shareholders behind them are very important; what's more, these three companies are indeed representative shares of Singapore in future generations.

Originally, SingTel should have great potential, but since Heung Kong Telecom cut off Australia's second largest telecommunications company, SingTel's potential is not that great.

"Third, increase the holdings of commercial real estate in Singapore and the mainland. The mainland gives priority to office buildings or shopping malls in Shanghai and Beijing."

The real estate talents of Wisdom Group are the management of New Times Group, introduced by Lin Zuhui, so Zhishen Group can invest in real estate in the mainland, otherwise it is not familiar with the business at all, and there will be no New Times Group (Huaxia) as a partner partner.

In the field of real estate, Zhizhi Group is undoubtedly stable and has sufficient talents.

"Fourth, regarding the acquisition of the three Seibu department stores in Singapore, I will introduce a talent in the department store field to join later. He will form a team and go to Japan to seek deals."

This is the benefit of connections. Without connections, if you want to do this business, you can't do it.

Li Zhi interjected: "In Singapore, Japanese goods are very popular, so the department store industry is quite good."

Lin Zuhui emphasized: "Don't expect any prospects for these three department stores. We can only say that Weiwei is making some money. Department stores are a sunset industry. The important thing is that Wisdom Group has gained experience in the retail field."

The three girls nodded, there was no need to doubt the man's eyes.

"Fourth, Wisdom Group will set up another 'fast-selling women's clothing' brand, with a style biased towards 'Hong Kong style', targeting young women in Southeast Asia. Later, I will still introduce professionals to report to Wisdom Group to form this team."

Lin Zuhui thought about it, Hong Kong Liu has a great influence in Southeast Asia, so it should be good to cultivate a fast-selling clothing brand of "Hong Kong Liu Feng" in Singapore.When the time is right, we can also expand the online industry chain, become Singapore's first Internet clothing brand, and then do business in Southeast Asia.

When they heard about making a clothing brand, the three girls became even more excited. After all, there is no woman who doesn't like clothes.

"Don't pay too much attention to it, because the competitive pressure of clothing brands is very high, and the core of Wisdom Group cannot be it."

"Well, I wrote it down!"

In the end, Lin Zuhui said: "Later, I will send a consultant team to Wisdom Group as a company consultant to make this company more competitive."

The three girls nodded, and they were even happier. Who didn't know that there were many talents and consultants around this man.

After the matter was finished, Lin Zuhui couldn't hold back any longer.

"Okay, it's time for us to have a story that the office has to tell!"

"What kind of office is this?"

"Would you like to go to the office in Central next time to reward the master!"

The three girls were also chattering, beating Lin Zuhui's heart!

Lin Zuhui didn't care, he just put...

Chapter 738 [82 billion US dollars]

Friday, April 10.

The "Four Seasons Hotel" located at No. 8, Financial Street, Central, Hong Kong officially opened, and guests from all over the world gathered for a time. As the three major shareholders of "Four Seasons Hotel" - Lin Zuhui, Bill Gates, and Waleed, they all attended the opening ceremony.

The Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong is divided into two parts. One is the 45-storey Four Seasons Hotel with 399 rooms, most of which enjoy 180-degree views of Victoria Harbor and the coast of the Kowloon Peninsula; the other is the 60-storey service The Four Seasons Residence is a residence for guests who stay in Hong Kong for a long time. It has 519 rooms and the monthly rent ranges from HK$5 to HK$20.

This is the only hotel in the world that has two Michelin three-star restaurants (in the future). Its shopping mall is directly connected to the International Finance Center shopping mall. Guests can buy luxury brands on Hong Kong Island without going out.

But beautiful scenery, gourmet food and convenient shopping are not the core competitiveness of Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong. It is best known for its unique geographical location - living in the middle, overlooking the north, you can see the mainland across the water, Walk downstairs for 10 minutes and you will arrive at the Hong Kong-Macau Ferry Terminal.Whether you want to gamble in Macau or go for a swim on the high seas, it is very convenient here.If you want to shoot the night view of Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong Four Seasons Hotel will definitely be in the picture.

The Four Seasons Hotel itself is a luxury five-star hotel in the world, and "Xiangjiang Four Seasons Hotel" will become the best representative of the Four Seasons Hotel in the world.

There are only a handful of five-star hotels in Hong Kong Island. They were originally the two hotels in the Convention and Exhibition Center-Marriott Harbor View, Grand Hyatt, and the two hotels in Pacific Place-Shangri-La, JW Marriott, and Mandarin Oriental.

But now, the opening of the Four Seasons Hotel has suppressed all these hotels in one fell swoop, becoming the most luxurious hotel in Xiangjiang, bar none.

"Hey, why hasn't the master Lin Sheng arrived yet?"

"That's right, the guests here today include Dong Sheng, Bill Gates, Prince Walid, Prince of Monaco, etc. Why doesn't Lin Sheng receive them?"

At this time, many guests were arranged by the organizer on the 'disc-shaped square' outside the main entrance of the hotel, and everyone was also curious about Lin Zuhui's figure.

suddenly.

A helicopter flew in the sky, attracting everyone's attention, and everyone was also very surprised. Guess this is the organizer's program?

A group of bodyguards quickly ran towards the garden space next to the Yuanpan Square, forming an open space for the helicopter to land.

"It's Lin Sheng!"

"Lin Sheng arrived in a helicopter, it's so cool!"

"As expected of the richest man in the world at a young age, his thinking is always so surprising!"

"Driving a yacht, flying a plane, surfing, diving...Mr. Lin is an all-round rich man!"

Bill Gates and other distinguished guests couldn't help but smile when they saw Lin Zuhui's cool appearance. This is probably the most outstanding super-rich man in the world; I'm afraid, only the boss of Oracle, Ellison, can barely be compared.

The helicopter landed steadily on the open space. Lin Zuhui walked down in a suit and leather shoes, giving people a state of energy and temperament. He looked like a 30-year-old young man, which gave people a great contrast. Because he is also a self-made richest man in the world.

"Hi everyone, welcome to today's opening ceremony of the Four Seasons Hotel!"
