"If the information you gave is true, then I will give you benefits and fees, which will definitely satisfy you." Zhao Yi said.
After hearing this, the real estate agent's attitude became much better. He said with a smile: "I really have news here. The land at No. 31 Barker Road has not been purchased yet. Because the land is too big, nearly 2,000 square meters. rice."
Zhao Yi was stunned after hearing this. Is 2,000 square meters a big place? Zhao Yi felt a little funny when he heard this. For mainlanders, 2,000 square meters is really not a big deal, but for Hong Kong, where every inch of land is precious, a house of dozens of square meters can be called a luxury house. This is estimated in mainland China. I was too embarrassed to say it.
In any case, it was a big gain to know this information from the real estate agent. After giving the real estate agent 10,000 Hong Kong dollars as a reward, Zhao Yi and Lin Hexia came to the Hong Kong Land and Planning Bureau (the author doesn’t know what it should be called, just So be it), proposed to purchase the entire land at No. 31 Barker Road.
It’s good to have money. Hong Kong is free and welcomes any capital from the world. So the land was obtained in one afternoon. The land in Hong Kong at this time was incomparable to that of later generations. 2000 square meters of land cost 200 million Hong Kong dollars. Done, it’s simply incomparable to 500 million for two parking spaces in later generations.
In fact, Zhao Yi did not know that No. 31 Baijia Road was later built into four villas, of which villas A and D were purchased by Liu Luanxiong, and villa B was purchased by Yang Jiacheng.
Now Zhao Yi plans to build this land into two villas, one is the main villa, covering an area of three-fifths, and the other is an auxiliary villa, covering an area of about two-fifths. The auxiliary villa will be used for those who are not on duty in the future. Security personnel and servants live there, while the villa is where Lin Hexia lives.
Zhao Yi personally designed the layout of the villa. Only the one he designed could meet his own requirements. Of course, he did not forget Lin Hexia, the real owner. He showed the draft of the design to Lin Hexia and asked her to put forward her own opinions, and then revised it again.
The main villa is designed to have three and a half floors. Most of the upper floor is occupied by a semi-open-air swimming pool. Inside the house are a bath room and a sauna and spa room. The third floor is the leisure and entertainment floor. In addition to the chess and card room, billiards room, KTV, private cinema, etc., there is also a library. It’s a good place to read a book when you have nothing to do.
The second floor is the bedroom, with a total of five large bedrooms. The master bedroom covers an area of 300 square meters, and the other four bedrooms cover an area of 100 square meters. Each bedroom is independent and has its own cloakroom, bedroom, bathroom, study room and entertainment room. This provides independent privacy, and each bedroom adopts a different decoration style.
Then there is the first floor. This floor is a hall with a split-level design. In addition, there are kitchens, servants' lounges, security lounges, reception rooms, monitoring equipment rooms, etc. The hall area is 900 square meters. Banquets for many people can be held.
The first underground floor is a gym, which is divided into a mechanical gym, a dance gym and a garage. The second underground floor is a storage room with a huge cold storage room and wine cellar.
In addition to these, Zhao Yi is also planning to use a lot of high-tech equipment, such as the swimming pool's constant temperature system, filtration system, automatic water quality detection system, etc. The entire villa is equipped with a large central air-conditioning and fresh air system, the security camera uses an automatic recognition system, and the security background has automatic Alarm systems and more.
In order to prevent these precision electronic equipment from being electromagnetic interference by the enemy, military-grade or aerospace-grade anti-interference technology will be used to ensure normal operation under any circumstances.
After designing the architectural drawings, she showed them to Lin Hexia for final confirmation. She saw the design renderings and liked them very much. After confirming that there were no problems, she asked Lin Hexia to arrange for a construction company to build according to the highest construction standards.
Zhao Yi has never been very concerned about these trivial matters. He positions himself as the controller.
After dealing with the matter of the new villa, all that remains is the issue of bargain hunting in the Hong Kong property market.
To be honest, it is the ups and downs of Hong Kong's property market that have caused a large number of rich people and also submerged a large number of rich people. This is a problem of their own vision and their own strong capital.
Hong Kong's economy is an open free market economy. It is difficult to form a monopoly economic power in many industries, but it has obvious monopoly characteristics in the real estate field.
Almost all of the 10 largest family conglomerates in Hong Kong are related to the real estate industry in later generations. This is inseparable from the real estate crises in Hong Kong. Each crisis is a gluttonous feast for big capital, and the weak can only cut their flesh and leave.
To be honest, Zhao Yi, as a mainlander, sincerely dislikes the big families that monopolize the real estate market in Hong Kong.
Before Hong Kong's handover in 1997, Hong Kong's land supply may be related to the relevant restrictions on land sales signed by China and Britain, but there are also reasons why these monopoly families have joined forces to push up the price.
In 1981, Hong Kong had become the region with the highest housing prices in the world after RB. Then came the current collapse. Then from 1984 to 1997, Hong Kong's housing prices grew at an average annual rate of more than 20%.
Stimulated by the soaring housing prices, real estate speculation in Hong Kong quickly became popular, and a large number of almost crazy "property speculators" appeared.
At this time, people in Hong Kong blindly invest in real estate. In order to seize opportunities, many people often make hasty decisions to buy "luxury homes" based only on the descriptions given by real estate agents on the phone.
By 1996, it turned out that before buying a house in Hong Kong, you had to spend 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars to buy an account.
Are you familiar? This experience seems to be exactly what we are going through now. We mainlanders seem to be very talented in learning how to make money, especially making quick money. What are the pre-construction properties, what is the area of the pool, etc., and how can we learn from Hong Kong real estate? None of them were left behind, but the property was the only one that was unflattering.
Of the six real estate crises that Hong Kong has experienced since World War II, three were directly or indirectly caused by the Western economic crisis, and two were related to political factors and the emigration of Hong Kong residents to other countries and the sale of properties at low prices.
But in terms of internal factors, it is mainly due to the special supply and demand relationship and speculative nature of the Hong Kong real estate market.
Since Zhao Yi plans to enter the Hong Kong real estate market, he will definitely not do it in a small way. There is no point in entering the Hong Kong real estate industry in that way. It is nothing more than making more money. If it is just to make money, there is no need for him to be so concerned. .
Now his bad taste is getting stronger and stronger. His plan is to kill these real estate developers, or prevent these real estate developers from becoming a cancer in Hong Kong.
The specific plan is to build rental houses in Hong Kong, and a large number of rental houses, and then rent them to Hong Kong citizens at relatively low prices, so that all Hong Kong citizens will feel that buying a house is not as good as renting a house.
If those real estate developers lower housing prices, then Zhao Yi will lower the rental price, so that those real estate developers cannot make huge profits, and he can also make long-term gains.
In principle, the land lease term in Hong Kong is 99 years. If the house has not collapsed by the end of the lease period, you can pay the land tax and renew the lease again until the house on the ground collapses and the land is taken back.
In fact, the quality of normal house construction cannot last that long.
In order to extend the land lease as much as possible, Zhao Yi needs to build the house of particularly good quality. In addition to working on the structure of the house, it also requires material support.
In Zhao Yi's opinion, these problems are not difficult. He plans to build a batch of houses with quality that can be used for hundreds of years.
In this way, you can always occupy the land and rent your house for a longer period of time, so that you can maximize the benefits. Otherwise, the house built will fall down within a few decades, and the income recovered through rental will be very small. This approach is not in one's own interests.
After thinking about these things, Zhao Yi told Lin Hexia about the matter and asked her to set up a Hong Kong housing company. The current task is to buy the Hong Kong property market at the bottom, mainly commercial real estate, and then buy a large amount of land for reserves. Construction will begin after the research and development of building materials is completed.
"I can understand bargain hunting, but what is the operation of hoarding large amounts of land to build houses and rent them out? Like public rental housing in Singapore?" Lin Hexia asked.
"It's almost the same, except that we are handling this matter privately. No matter what, Hong Kong will definitely return to the motherland in 1997. Due to the special nature of Hong Kong, there will definitely be many foreign hostile elements who will cause trouble in Hong Kong in the future, and Hong Kong's Stability and prosperity are in our interests." Zhao Yi found a necessary reason.
"But we are a private enterprise. Let's first discuss whether we can benefit from this. Before doing so, we will offend all real estate developers in Hong Kong. Is this good?" Lin Hexia asked.
"I know that as a businessman, you should value peace and not easily create conflicts. Although I am a rich man with more money than I can count now, I am actually a staunch socialist. I don't like small businesses. There are a handful of rich people and a large group of extremely poor people, hoping that social wealth will be more balanced." This is the first time that Zhao Yi reveals his thoughts to outsiders.
"You should also know that there are always differences between people. Even if it is average now, there will still be this gap between rich and poor after a while. This is inevitable." Lin Hexia said.
In fact, what Lin Hexia said is true. Unless political coercion is used, this kind of balance can never exist in a free economic market, and the gap between rich and poor can never be eliminated. However, what Zhao Yi pursues is not absolute average, which is not conducive to society. Enter, desire is the driving force of human progress, and lack of desire is the disaster of mankind.
"I have never thought about doing this. Anyone with a clear head knows that absolute egalitarianism is impossible to achieve. What I need to do is to be relatively balanced, especially in terms of human necessities. This is the basis for the existence of human dignity. ." Zhao Yi said.
The most basic needs of human beings are food, clothing, housing and transportation. The problem of "clothing" has no longer been a problem that people have to worry about since the beginning of industrialization. However, "food" and "housing" have gradually become a thorny problem with the increasing human population. The problem is that "business" is a public service. If the rich can enjoy it, the poor can also enjoy it.
So the place where Zhao Yi starts now is "food" and "housing". In terms of "food", Zhao Yi has started very early. The environmental management company and the agricultural and animal husbandry company are to solve this problem. At present, it is just Just at the beginning, when all the domestic desert land is turned into fertile farmland, then the domestic "food" problem will not be a problem.
The amount of money spent on "housing" is huge. You have to wait for your cash cow to grow up, and you will definitely invest in it by then to completely solve the housing problems for future generations. (End of chapter)
