Chapter 1209
Wang Chaosheng's study.
The golden light softly sprinkled on the sandalwood desk in Wang Chaosheng's study. The atmosphere in the study was calm and solemn. Wang Chaosheng sat in an armchair with a carved back.
He was not surprised at the result of the cooperation between Meng Haisheng and Zhou Yaozu.
"That guy has eight hundred minds. Peng Jiacheng is not his opponent at all."
Recalling several confrontations with Meng Haisheng, Wang Chaosheng had to admire Meng Haisheng's agility.
In the past six months, the Wang family was afraid that there would be major changes in Hong Kong Island after 97, so they sold a lot of properties.
Next to him, Wang Yaoyu stood by the large window, and the moonlight projected through the gap in the curtains shone on his face. He had a contemptuous smile on his face and didn't care about the news that Meng Haisheng built a financial center.
"I thought Meng Haisheng was a great man, but it seems that his past success was just luck."
"Meng Haisheng has never failed in real estate investment in Hong Kong Island. As far as I know, his financial center will start construction this year, the first phase will be delivered next year, and the second phase will be delivered in 2003."
"This shows that Meng Haisheng is very optimistic about the real estate market in Hong Kong Island. Yaoyu, do you think we should also follow up and buy some land?"
Wang Yaoyu shook his head and looked at the night outside the window, as if weighing the risks.
"I still dare not follow the trend. Not many people are optimistic about Hong Kong Island real estate now. If the land is stuck in my hands, I don't know how long it will take to get out of it."
Wang Chaosheng took a deep breath and turned his eyes to an antique landscape painting hanging in the room.
"When some investments are uncertain, it is best to wait. After all, with money in hand, opportunities will always come."
Wang Yaoyu's business is really hard to describe. He lost a lot on the Hainan Island project, and then when the Hong Kong Island real estate was slightly better, he still lost money.
He lost money for two consecutive years, and he was really afraid of losing money.
With such a prodigal son, even if Wang Chaosheng felt that the Hong Kong Island real estate had hit the bottom and was showing signs of recovery, he was unwilling to let Wang Yaoyu continue to get involved.
Wang Yaoyu was not optimistic about Meng Haisheng, but Zhou Wenqi still believed in Meng Haisheng's vision.
He called specifically to ask Meng Haisheng whether it was appropriate to hoard land in Hong Kong Island now.
"To be honest, now is not a good time to hoard land." Meng Haisheng's voice was a little cautious.
After hearing this, Zhou Wenqi asked half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Ah? Not a good time? Then why do you still want to build a financial center with a big hand? You kid, don't you want me to buy land at a low price because I am old?"
Meng Haisheng laughed on the other end of the phone.
"No, how dare I play tricks with Master Zhou. The real estate market in Hong Kong Island is only temporarily depressed now. After 1997, there will be an economic crisis, and then the real estate market will be really unsustainable."
"You knew there would be an economic crisis, but you still jumped in. Aren't you afraid of losing all your money?"
Zhou Wenqi didn't believe Meng Haisheng would do such a stupid thing.
"The second phase of my financial center will not be completed until 2003. By then, the economic crisis in Hong Kong Island will have long passed, and the real estate market will also usher in a recovery."
After Meng Haisheng explained this, Zhou Wenqi suddenly understood.
"So you are playing with the time difference. Those real estate developers who followed the trend are probably crying now."
Meng Haisheng sighed, "Indeed, after being trapped for so many years, small real estate developers may not be able to continue."
"That can't be helped. Who can help me with sufficient funds? These idle money will be left there anyway. It is better to invest them. The income in a few years will definitely be more than that of keeping them in the bank."
Zhou Wenqi simply didn't know how to complain about Meng Haisheng, a super rich man. A few hundred million in his hands is just a drizzle.
It is precisely because he has such a tyrannical wealth that he dares to play like this. Even if the financial crisis comes, he can face it head-on.
"Then, I will let Ajie wait until next year, when the real estate in Hong Kong Island has completely fallen to the bottom, and then go to buy the bottom."
"I will take Ajie to speculate in stocks again. This thing is exciting and makes money quickly."
The financial crisis in 1998 was caused by currency speculation. By then, Meng Haisheng will definitely join forces with several financial giants to fight against those invaders together.
At that time, all the money earned was in US dollars. He was not greedy. He just wanted to let the invaders leave 2 billion US dollars.
"Young people are full of energy." Zhou Wenqi sighed, "At my age, it is suitable for me to make some safe investments. Buy a few buildings, quietly collect rent, and enjoy my old age."
Meng Haisheng smiled gently: "Master Zhou, our ideas are actually very similar. When the financial center is built, I also want to retire. In 2000, the Internet era, that was the stage for Tan Qing and his people."
Zhou Wenqi couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"Your Tan QingYou are only a teenager, and you want to retire? Ajie has already started a family, and I am still an old man. "
"No way, the Internet age is the world of young people, they know what their peers want better."
Meng Haisheng never thought that he and Zhou Wenqi could talk about the Internet, and what surprised him even more was that Zhou Wenqi was quite knowledgeable about this field.
As the older generation who have experienced several generations of entrepreneurial storms, they are always extremely sensitive to the changes of the times and the economy.
Looking back, Zhou Wenqi always seems to be at the forefront of the trend of the times.
"Master Zhou, are you free recently? Let's go for morning tea together. I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Yes, Haisheng, you are a busy man, flying around all day, it's not easy to invite you out for morning tea."
"Then tomorrow, I plan to stay in Hong Kong Island for a few more days this time. Call me when you are free, and I will definitely be there at any time."
"Okay, see you tomorrow. "
Meng Haisheng was talking on the phone with Zhou Wenqi in the study room for more than half an hour.
At this time, Lin Mucheng walked in quietly and brought him a cup of hot coffee.
"It's great to have a wife. If you don't come, no one will bring me a cup of coffee even if I talk on the phone for a long time."
"Isn't Chu Lin always by your side?"
"He is just my secretary and is not responsible for my personal life."
"Then you can find a personal secretary, preferably one who looks good."
"Wife, you don't have to test me. I definitely don't want a secretary like that. However, it is feasible to find a male personal secretary. "
Lin Mucheng just smiled softly after hearing this. These were all Meng Haisheng's own decisions and had nothing to do with her.
Meng Haisheng's big move caused quite a stir in the real estate circle of Hong Kong Island, and many people changed their original plans. Even some people who originally planned to go abroad decided to stay and wait and see the subsequent development of Hong Kong Island.
As for Meng Haisheng, who had already bought the land, he did not seem to be in a hurry.
He currently only needs to focus on the first phase of the financial center project - 38 floors plus a four-story garage.
For him, these are all small projects, and there is no need to supervise them personally. It is enough to have Pi Guangen there.
Since Yan Ning and Mu Zi came to Hong Kong Island, Meng Haisheng's attention has been almost entirely on his two daughters.
"Dad, we are all grown up, and you, mom, and grandpa and grandma don't have to follow us all day."
Yan Ning looked at the family going to the recording studio with them and couldn't help but protest.
