Chapter 350 Sky Star City
Chapter 350: Sky Star City
Yang Xing was very envious of the heroic figure of the steel giant beast in front of him. He thought that when this mission was over, he would also put this tire on his gaz-47, and then he would take the beauty to travel through mountains and rivers as if walking on flat ground. It would be a good thing to think about it! Of course, his vision not only saw the advantages of this triangular track passing through obstacles, but felt that this method did not change the structure of the vehicle itself, but also quickly installed the tracks and tires, absorbing the strengths of the two. It seemed that the future was bright. Lin Jiana looked at the vehicle approaching and pushed him and said, "Don't be too happy first, the hard work is still to come. We must prepare the decontamination equipment in the past few days. After all, they have been in high-radiation areas for more than ten years, and they can only be opened with radiation first, and then they have to spend time sorting these files. Your and her job is to quickly implement the concert abroad as soon as possible. Only when these files are packed and put on the road will we be truly done!"
1998 was a nightmare year for many Asian countries. The Asian financial storm that started last July last year had ravaged Asia for more than a year. None of them survived the wealth that had been saved by Russia in the north to Indonesia in the south. Many countries had lost their wealth for decades. In order to overcome difficulties together, people from South Korea, Thailand and other places spontaneously donated their gold and silver from their homes to the country to fill the country's foreign exchange reserves. In this crisis, the prescriptions prescribed by IMF (International Monetary Fund), the main rescuer, to the recipient countries, without exception, demanded that the country adopt austerity finances and open up foreign investment in the domestic market, resulting in the collapse or acquisition of a large number of national enterprises. The property losses to ordinary people are indeed a drop in the bucket.
This result seriously hurts the dignity of governments in various countries, making people in various countries feel insulted. People are resentful for a moment, and they scold the secondary exploitation of emerging Asian economies by Europe and the United States, and they all took to the streets to cause revolution. Governments such as Indonesia, Thailand and other countries also fell out of their blood, and many political strongmen stepped down. Economic and political crises have also affected Asian countries. Neo-Confucian culture that once created the economic miracle of East Asia's little dragon and tiger economic miracle. The economic theory that Asian business is nepotism and the serious nepotism has led to this crisis has also been highly valued. For a time, the impact of economic, social, cultural and other aspects seriously hit the confidence of people in Asian countries.
But there are also rare highlights in this fog, that is, the ancient Asian country of China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, which she has just returned to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. At this time, another major Asian country, India, is still burying in the domestic national political affairs. There are not many economic highlights, few foreign exchanges, and economic introverts. Many people often ignore their existence when talking about the Asian economy. Twenty years after the reform, China has now shined with the style of a "central power" in the past, and its economy has maintained double-digit growth for twenty years and is regarded as a third world country.
In this Asian financial crisis, China has lost a large number of orders in the face of domestic and foreign trade enterprises and faced double pressures at home and abroad that have not encountered a huge flood in a century. It still resolutely promised that the RMB would not depreciate and became the most powerful embankment in resisting the financial crisis, winning the intersection praise and recognition of many East Asian countries. Hong Kong, which had just returned, not only successfully defended its economic fruits, but also won a great victory in the financial war with international speculators that just ended in November, helping many countries to avenge their revenge.
Since August, international speculators who have been frequently fighting with the Hong Kong SAR government have been delayed by the sudden offensive of the SAR government, as time goes by, the financial crisis caused by Russia's failure to repay foreign debts has firmly tied up a lot of international hot money. Many international speculators have fallen into an embarrassing situation of fighting on both sides. When the futures contracts between Hong Kong and Russia were delivered, they were defeated and suffered heavy losses. For example, Soros and Robertson, who were temporarily in the Asian financial storm, both left Maicheng this time, and the book losses on the two places combined were as high as nearly 10 billion US dollars, almost accompanying them all their profits during the Asian financial storm. Loss is still a small matter, and the loss of confidence caused by this is huge. Many investors who bet on them are preparing to withdraw their investments, and both Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund are in danger.
As for their opponents, although the three major sovereign funds of the SAR government also suffered minor losses on the books, industry insiders have always been optimistic about their investment returns with the large number of stocks they bought at low prices when the stock market was sluggish. Now, with the recovery of Hong Kong's economy, the stock market, foreign exchange market and futures market, all are recovering. As long as the three major funds remain calm, they will definitely make huge profits when they sell the stocks they have gained at a high price when the purchase restrictions end. This is almost a consensus in the economic community. In addition, private funds that assist the SAR government in the defense of the Hong Kong dollar have also achieved good results.
Of course, there are winners, and there are also losers. A small number of people in Hong Kong lost a lot because of betting on the wrong treasure. For example, the Zheng family of Zheng Shirong Bank in Hong Kong was destroyed and the family business was handed over. Zheng Shirong Bank also went bankrupt and auctioned into a subsidiary of Xingfu Investment Group. After the Zheng family fled to the Philippines, they were kidnapped and extorted by the local underworld. The family members died and fled. The Zheng family, which was once glorious, disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Yang Xing and the family members who laundered money by gamblers also made money because of this news. They learned the magic of capital operation for the first time. Anyone who followed Yang Xing and others to make big bets and wins in the SAR government laughed to the end. Apart from dissatisfaction, they were convinced by Yang Xing's ability to make money. Only Gu He, who always liked to fight against Yang Xing, lost a lot because he bets the wrong treasure. Finally, he admitted that he was still apart from Yang Xing and decided to study abroad first to accumulate experience and enrich himself.
In a blink of an eye, this year of sadness and joy is about to pass. In Hong Kong, Yang Xing's shadow has been firmly left in the hearts of every Hong Kong person. From last year's eight listed companies listed on the eve of the Asian Financial Storm, they have made great luck with 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in one fell swoop, to fighting wits and courage with Baifu, using the Asian Financial Storm to swallow their opponents in one fell swoop, and then to successively acquire heavyweight opponents such as "Yaki Fan" and "Shanyi Securities", and finally turned against his partner Robertson and others. The Hong Kong dollar battle was a battle, but the various experiences of Soros and the others, made everyone ignore the fact that he had just graduated from college this year, and raised this "magic boy" who played with countless old martial arts and lakes to the same position as veteran wealthy people such as Li Ka-shing and Ho Ying-tung. When people in the circle see him, they would respectfully say: "Mr. Yang!"
However, at this time, "Mr." Yang Xing had disappeared from the public eye for a long time because of "injured during flood fighting, rescue and disaster relief". Although paparazzi occasionally took photos of him taking many beauties to inspect several major industrial parks in China and traveling on a boat from time to time, he lived in seclusion in the Tianbigao mansion on the top of Taiping Mountain without leaving home. Even at the most critical moment of the Hong Kong dollar war, only Fang Kai, Xu Weili and others from Xingfu Investment Group came forward to accept interviews, and he, who was considered to be behind the scenes, never expressed his opinion.
Just as everyone was talking about his whereabouts, in early December, Yang Xing finally appeared at the press conference for the signing of the transfer of the Kwun Tong plot in Hong Kong by Zhongxing Group and the Hong Kong government. Before that, there had been news that Zhongxing Group planned to spend US$10 billion to rebuild the Kwun Tong Industrial Zone in Hong Kong and build a high-tech park in Hong Kong. For this reason, the SAR government and the parliament had a six-year tug-of-war, and finally the SAR government's opinions gained the upper hand.
Countless reporters were attracted by this news. They gathered enthusiastically at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center to attend the press conference. The meeting disappeared for several months and looked thinner, but refreshing Yang Xing signed a series of contracts on behalf of Zhongxing Group and Southeast Asian investors from Singapore and Indonesia, including Southeast Asian investors, and Chief Executive Bao Haisheng, saying that they would gradually transform Kwun Tong within ten years. First, they would build a "Sky Star City" building complex at the former site of Kai Tak Airport. The tallest skyscraper in the world was named "Zhaixing Tower", which caused an uproar in the audience. You should know that it announced that it would be twice as high as the "Oriental Star" building in Shanghai, the tallest building in the world under construction at that time! There are also twelve auxiliary buildings surrounding it, including major companies under the jurisdiction of Zhongxing Group, forming the world headquarters of Zhongxing Group.
In addition, in the future, the factory warehouses in Kwun Tong area will be converted into high-tech factories. Zhongxing Group will concentrate high-value-added manufacturing parks such as electronics, precision machinery, biology, and chemicals, and build supporting facilities and personnel residences. This is probably the largest real estate investment in Hong Kong's history. Therefore, in addition to Zhongxing Group, Li Ka-shing's son Li Zekai, Singapore's Li family representative Li Xianyang, Indonesia's Lin Hennian and Huang Xingfei all have investments. With these heavyweight figures joining, everyone seems to see the majesty of "Sky Star City" rising up immediately. Even Hong Kong real estate boss Li Ka-shing personally congratulated him. As the developer of this real estate project, Xinghua Real Estate stood on the same level as big-name companies such as Hong Kong and Huang and New World almost overnight.
At the end of this press conference, Yang Xing also threw a bombshell and announced that China Star International Group will hold the first China Star World Conference in Hong Kong, and will hold the China Star International Group Annual Conference and the World Conference in December every year. Unlike the summary group annual meeting, the theme of the World Conference will be to present a demonstration of the new products and technologies of the group's enterprises, so that the outside world can understand the continuous technological progress of China Star Group and also provide preliminary publicity for the promotion of many new products.
Yang Xing also told many media that at the World Congress, not only Zhongxing Group's enterprises will participate, but many supporting manufacturers such as materials and accessories that have business dealings with Zhongxing Group can also take this opportunity to promote their products and technologies. A smart Hong Kong reporter speculated that Zhongxing Group wanted to use the platform of the World Congress to build a high-tech ecosystem around Zhongxing Group's enterprises, so that buyers and manufacturers from all over the world can meet and communicate directly, and their ambitions are great.
