Chapter 193 Crazy Building (asking for monthly ticket)
Yang Wendong said: "It is possible. Can you shareholders together stop him from doing this?"

Huang Yaonan said: "After the listing, Yan Chengkun's equity will be diluted, and the other shareholders combined can gather a veto power, but the problem is that other shareholders will not oppose him;
Unless Mr. Yang can gather about 10% of the shares, then with mine, it will be almost enough.”

"That's not difficult." Yang Wendong smiled and said, "About 10%. I can still buy it if I spend more money, but it's not convenient for me to show up. It's best to find the existing shareholders so that Yan Chengkun won't be suspicious."

Once an outside shareholder intervenes and holds around 10% of the company's shares, even a fool would know that there is a problem, especially since China Bus has two opposing founding families.

Huang Yaonan thought for a moment and said, "There is a shareholder who has an average relationship with Yan Chengkun and me. Maybe he can be won over."

"Okay, then I'll leave this to you." Yang Wendong then said, "But this is the last resort. Don't go against him unless you have to. If he feels the threat is too great, he may stop expanding, and then we may fail."

Huang Yaonan asked again: "If we don't stop it openly, how can we stop Yan Chengkun?"

"It's hard to say now, you should go back and prepare for the listing first." Yang Wendong paused and said, "As long as it is listed, many things will be much easier to handle.

In addition, we should remain polite and low-key, and show that we do not want to compete with Yan Chengkun for the future management of China-Pakistan, so as to reassure him."

There are some things that Yang Wendong can only know by himself and cannot tell anyone else.

For example, there will be a serious bank run at Liu Chong Hing Bank at the beginning of next year, which will also affect several other banks. Although it will eventually be controlled by the Hong Kong government, HSBC and Standard Chartered, many banks are still in a panic and have reduced external lending to protect themselves.

On the other hand, when Jardine Matheson went public in 1961, the frozen funds exceeded HK$8 million, which detonated the entire Hong Kong stock market. Since then, those who have the ability to go public for financing have been rushing to do so.

In this environment where it is difficult to obtain loans but easy to raise funds in the stock market, a normal capitalist will choose to raise funds in the stock market, provided that his management rights will not be threatened.

Huang Yaonan nodded and agreed, "Okay."

After negotiating the general content of the cooperation, the dishes were served and everyone enjoyed a big meal.

After returning, Yang Wendong said to Zheng Zhijie: "Old Zheng, the China-Pakistan bus project needs to be arranged slowly. If it is fast, it may take a few months, and if it is slow, it may take one or two years. During this period of time, you will need to follow us."

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang, I will follow up on this matter." Zheng Zhijie nodded and agreed.

Yang Wendong added: "We will make preparations after Huang Yaonan confirms the time for the listing of the minibus. Generally, it takes some time to list the minibus, so it won't be that fast.

You should just do your own thing normally."

"Okay." Zheng Zhijie agreed.

A few days later, Huang Yaonan came to the headquarters of China-Pakistan Railway and found Yan Chengkun: "Uncle Yan, I want to discuss something with you."

Although he hated the person in front of him to the core, he had to observe the most basic courtesy now that he was under his father's roof. After all, Yan Chengkun was of the same generation as his father.

Yan Chengkun did not reply, but deliberately took a sip of tea slowly, and after a long while he said, "Nephew, please tell me if you have anything to say."

"I can agree to the listing of China Bus and Uncle Yan's investment after the listing," Huang Yaonan said, "but I have one condition."

"Oh, what conditions?" He was so proud just now, but he immediately became excited when he heard that it could be listed. You know, the reason why China Bus was not listed before was because the Huang family and he could not reach an agreement on many things.

Huang Yaonan said: "I want my dividends, all the dividends from the past few years."

"You want dividends?" Yan Chengkun's face changed immediately, and he said, "My dear nephew, the expansion of bus routes over the years has required funds, and a lot of money has been spent. There is not much money left in the account.

Besides, since you agree to go public, won’t you have money after the IPO financing? Or you can sell the shares.”

Huang Yaonan added: "That's true, but I need a lot of funds right now. It's still early after the listing, so I can only ask for dividends in the next few years, which is what I deserve."

"Nephew, what do you need so much money for? If it really doesn't work, I can introduce a bank to you and ask for a loan first?" Yan Chengkun asked.

Huang Yaonan had already prepared his answer and said, "I am optimistic about the real estate industry and plan to invest in real estate. I have already planned to borrow money from the bank. What I lack is the initial capital."

It is true that he is doing real estate, but the most important purpose is to cooperate with Yang Wendong and consume the funds of China and Pakistan.

Whether it is China-Burk or Yan's funds, the less the better, and the heavier the debt, the better. Only when a listed company itself is extremely heavily in debt will it be easy to find a breakthrough.

"Real estate?" Yan Chengkun thought it made sense. In fact, he was optimistic about it, but he was limited by his existing business and could not raise too much money to invest in real estate.

Then he said, "My dear nephew, you have a good vision, but it is really difficult for the company to come up with so much money."

Huang Yaonan said with a smile: "Uncle Yan, I just want the part that I deserve. After getting the money, I will go into real estate business, and I will not interfere in the affairs of the China-Pakistan Company.

Isn't this what Uncle Yan has always hoped for? "

Yan Chengkun frowned slightly, then said, "How about this, I introduce a few people to buy your stocks? That way you can have enough funds to invest in real estate?"

The stocks held by the Huang family have always been a concern for him. Although he has the controlling rights, it is worrying enough that a major shareholder always goes against him.

"No, this won't work. The shares of China-Pakistan were left to me by my father, and I won't sell them." Huang Yaonan shook his head.

"Okay, I'll think about it." Yan Chengkun was a little undecided about this sudden news.

Huang Yaonan said: "Then I will wait for Uncle Yan's good news."

Time quickly came to the beginning of October.

After Yang Wendong arrived at the Hong Kong China Building, Zheng Zhijie came to report and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, Yan Chengkun agreed to Huang Yaonan's request and gave him another 70 in dividends."

"Okay." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Then let Huang Yaonan keep a low profile before the listing and don't worry about anything.

After the listing, China-Pakistan will have spent most of its financing, and then we can raise the profile.”

"Mr. Huang has already done so. He is planning to invest in real estate in Hong Kong Island." Zheng Zhijie said with a smile, "When he was chatting with me just now, he learned that Changxing Real Estate is planning to launch a residential property.

I briefly introduced our operation ideas to him, and he was very interested. He said that when our sample house is on display, he would come to take a look and maybe buy some. ”

"Haha, that's good. We've found a big client." Yang Wendong smiled and asked, "When will the sample room be ready?"

Zheng Zhijie replied: "It will only take another week. The sample room is a separate one-story house outside with three rooms. It has nothing to do with the main building of the Titian family.

A floor is built very quickly, so it only takes a little longer to decorate. After a week, when the smell is mostly gone, it can be put on display.”

"Okay." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "I'll go take a look when it's done. I can also invite Mr. Huang to come over and take a look together, and then discuss the China-Pakistan issue."

Tixiang Family was the name Yang Wendong gave to his first residential complex. In his previous life, he had some money in the mainland and bought a lot of properties in his city. He still remembered the names of various property communities. Tixiang Family was the name of one of the high-end communities.

Zheng Zhijie agreed and said, "Okay."

mid-December.

Yang Wendong brought Su Yiyi, Lin Haoyu, Zhao Liming and others to the location of the Tixiang family. At the moment, it was still an empty lot, but there were already many workers working on it. Yang Wendong smiled at Lin Haoyu and said, "Haoyu, don't you want to buy a house? I can sell you one at cost price, it's very cheap."

"Okay." Lin Haoyu agreed immediately. On the way here, he already knew about the Titian family's house. After buying it, he could move in immediately, saving him the trouble of decorating it himself.

Then, led by Zheng Zhijie, several people came to the model house, where a relatively common decoration style came into view. It was slightly luxurious, but not too excessive.

Zheng Zhijie introduced: "Mr. Yang, due to time constraints and the fact that there are not many houses this time, we have prepared a model house.

When we do other projects in the future, if they are larger in scale, we can prepare two or three model houses with different decoration styles for buyers to choose from.”

"Well, OK." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "At present, one model house is enough. This decoration is very good."

A house of only a few dozen square meters cannot be decorated in any fancy way no matter how you decorate it; you can develop every space as much as possible without wasting any space by just putting more cabinets.

After a few people took a look around, Lin Haoyu chose the largest "luxury house" with an area of ​​1,000 square feet, and then Zheng Zhijie gave him the best location in advance.

Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Congratulations. You can move into this house in July next year."

"Well, thank you Brother Dong." Lin Haoyu said with a smile.

"For the loan procedures, you can go to Liao Chong Hing Bank and they will go through the special approval process for you." Yang Wendong added.

In fact, it would not be a big deal even if he gave a house to his founding partner. After all, his current net worth is no less than hundreds of millions.

But Lin Haoyu was unwilling to accept it and insisted on making money on his own, so Yang Wendong didn't force him.

Lin Haoyu agreed and said, "Okay."

After a while, we finished looking at all three houses. Although the areas and layouts were different, the decoration styles were similar.

After coming out, Yang Wendong said: “Old Zheng, after the house is built, we must pay special attention to the quality of the interior decoration.

This community is our first luxuriously renovated community, so nothing can go wrong and we need to make it famous right away.”

"I understand." Zheng Zhijie agreed.

Yang Wendong asked again: "When will the pre-sale start?"

"Next week," Zheng Zhijie replied, "after the house on the land behind has one or two floors built, then it will be ready."

"Yes, OK." Yang Wendong nodded and asked, "Have you asked the Hong Kong Chinese Daily and Commercial Radio to promote it?"

"I've already told them." Zheng Zhijie said, "Mr. Qin promised to give us the front page cover in five days."

"Okay." Yang Wendong smiled.

One of the biggest advantages of working in the media is that you have enough publicity resources, especially since the Hong Kong Chinese Daily News takes a high-end route, which is very suitable for your high-end real estate business positioning.

If you go to other newspapers, even if you have money, they may not always have cover resources.

After a while, Huang Yaonan came over and Zheng Zhijie also received him personally. In less than 15 minutes, 30 houses were sold directly.

Yang Wendong was a little surprised and said with a smile: "Mr. Huang is really generous. The total cost of 30 sets is close to one million."

Nowadays, a thousand-square-foot luxury house in Central costs about HK$4 to HK$5, while the price in Admiralty is slightly lower, at around HK$3.

However, Titian House itself is self-decorated and the property is positioned a bit higher, so the price is about 20% more expensive than usual. Huang Yaonan's 30 houses, both large and small, are mostly thousand-square-foot luxury houses, which add up to almost one million Hong Kong dollars.

Huang Yaonan said with a smile: "It is true that you have one million Hong Kong dollars, but most of it is still from bank loans. I have to say that Mr. Yang is really amazing. Liao Chongxing Bank is willing to provide 7% of the loan for your real estate business."

"That's because Mr. Liao Baoshan is also very confident in real estate." Yang Wendong said with a smile.

In the past, the down payment for buying a house with a loan was generally 3%, but in Hong Kong in this era, it is generally 5%, and the loan term is generally around 5 years, far less than the 20 years in the past.

However, Liao Chong Hing Bank played a more aggressive game, and since Yang Wendong's financial resources were growing stronger, and they themselves were optimistic about real estate, they gave a 7% loan amount, but the term was still 5 to 8 years.

Huang Yaonan said with a smile: "Yes, I heard that Mr. Liao's assets are as high as 100 million. It's really amazing. He is the pride of us Chinese."

"Yeah." Yang Wendong nodded in agreement.

During this period, Liao Baoshan has become more and more high-profile, and seems to be making the Liao family the richest family in Hong Kong after the Ho family. In a previous public interview, he even revealed that his assets have reached 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

In the 60s, million Hong Kong dollars was a very astonishing figure. A dozen years later, the four major families now have assets of only a few million at most.

However, Yang Wendong also knows that the higher the Liao family flies now, the harder they will fall next year.

On November 11, the Hong Kong Chinese Daily reported on its cover that Titian Residences in Admiralty was about to be launched, and it pioneered the concept of luxury fine-decorated housing: free move-in.

There is no need to worry about subsequent decoration anymore, the real estate company will directly decorate the house and then hand it over to the owner.

As soon as the newspaper came out, the Hong Kong real estate market was also surprised. No one had ever thought that when selling a house, one could also sell the decoration. Isn't this something that the owner has to do himself after buying the house?
On November 11, Titian officially accepted reservations for the properties, and Zheng Zhijie had already arranged more than a dozen security guards and more than 24 sales staff to prepare for the first day of work.

However, this number of people was obviously not enough. Before the door opened in the morning, hundreds of people came to see the house. After the door opened, everyone rushed in.

The sales staff also began to receive customers one by one, but soon found that there were not enough people, so they began to explain one-on-three or even one-on-five.

There was a queue at the door of the model house because the interior of the house was small and could not accommodate too many people.

Yang Wendong also came here early in the morning and saw the situation on the scene. He said: "The people who bought this house are really crazy."

Zheng Zhijie said happily: "Mr. Yang, the housing prices in Hong Kong are rising now. Houses like ours with good locations and ready for immediate move-in will definitely be very popular."

"That's good." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "In this way, we can let go of our hands and feet on the next few projects."

"Yes." Zheng Zhijie nodded.

At noon, an assistant came forward and reported: "Mr. Yang, Mr. Zheng, all 160 units we released today have been sold out, for a total of HK$463 million."

"Really fast?" Zheng Zhijie said with a smile, "It seems that the price can be higher when the second batch is put on the market."

"Yeah." Yang Wendong nodded in agreement. This kind of property in a prime location is not a necessity, but a normal commodity. Everything should be based on market principles.

The assistant who reported the news said again in embarrassment: "But there were people outside who were clamoring for the house and almost got into a fight with the security guards."

"No more sales today. We can't open this door." Yang Wendong waved his hand and said, "Give them some small gifts, towels, teacups, etc., and ask them to come back next time."
