The Industrial Giant Reborn

"TSMC? Okay, I'll give you a lawyer. You arrange for him to register the name globally. If you want to share shares, write yours and mine first. The Gulf government will wait until the follow-up negotiation is completed, and then come in." Chen Zhiwen said .

Now TSMC, with its own funds and some investment funds and support from Wanwan, may not need to introduce other capital in the next ten years. Only when the scale is large enough can it affect the global chip market. , and then need to consider the introduction of other large capital.

Of course, what Chen Zhiwen likes most is that TSMC’s development is faster than he expected. For example, in the 1990s, it can have the ability to wrestle with Samsung. That would be great. In this case, it is to introduce other European and American capitals in advance. He is also happy to see it happen.

"Okay, then I'm going to go to Wanwan tomorrow after a day's rest in Hong Kong. Is it possible for you?" Zhang Zhongmou asked. With his personality, he can't wait to go now. Anyway, there are flights between Hong Kong and Wanwan. There are many, beautiful professional negotiation teams, and it is impossible to let people leave within an hour, and it is almost afternoon now, so we can only wait for tomorrow.

"No problem, I will arrange someone to buy air tickets for you. You can rest at the hotel tonight, and I will arrange a suite for you there." Chen Zhiwen said.

His own Hilton Hotel is ready to be dismantled and no longer accepts guests. The relevant orders have also been transferred to the big hotel acquired by Guo Henian.

This is also the largest real estate project in Hong Kong since the real estate crisis. It needs to be blasted first, and then a huge amount of garbage should be cleaned up before building a new building. However, this kind of project is too large, and it takes about half a year to prepare for the blasting. The first thing to do is to remove all kinds of things and try to empty all the things inside. It is not just for saving money, but for the convenience of the blasting technical team to arrange the blasting. This kind of building blasting requires all the useless things to be removed. , The blasting company only designs the blasting plan based on the original structure and quality. If there are a lot of debris inside, which affects the balance, it may cause major problems.

In addition, there are many buildings around, and the blasting team has to confirm the preparations many times, and dare not take any risks. At the same time, when blasting, they have to cooperate with the Hong Kong government to set a large area nearby as a short-term no-man's land. process.

These processes cannot be rushed, and after the blasting, a large amount of garbage needs to be cleaned up, and the workload is also very large. The real estate crisis has come to an end. The Hong Kong government urgently needs some building construction to satisfy employment and stimulate real estate, and Midea buildings may not be able to play this role.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Chen." Zhang Zhongmou said with a smile.

The efficiency of the headquarters office is very high. Within the third hour after receiving the order, the negotiating team and air tickets were ready. If it weren’t for the fact that there is no Internet, the speed would probably be faster. Of course, this is also because Midea itself belongs to Cathay Pacific. big client. Not only because Midea people often take Cathay Pacific planes, but also because many Midea parts are shipped to Europe and the United States by air.

For home game consoles or handheld consoles with small size and high value, the cost of air transportation is not very high, but if it takes a month to float in the sea, it may involve a lot of money and it will be late. One month into the account, when the profit of these funds for investment is higher than the cost of air freight, then the air freight is also cost-effective. Later generations of Apple mobile phones are shipped by air to all parts of the world.

Of course, the current game consoles are still inferior to Apple mobile phones, and this kind of air transportation mode is only suitable for new product releases or some festivals, etc. Under normal circumstances, the fast ocean freighters under Bao Yugang can still be used.

The next day, Zhang Zhongmou took Midea's team to Wanwan, and Chen Zhiwen would receive news about the follow-up matter in a week or so, which can be regarded as remote supervision.

In the following period of time, Chen Zhiwen paid more attention to the progress of TSMC, which was also one of his core layouts in the electronics industry in the future. Although he did not have absolute control over it, it was of great significance. The crisis brought about by the skyrocketing skyrocketing prices, and there may even be a situation where chips cannot be purchased. As long as TSMC produces ahead of schedule smoothly, with its own massive support, it will only develop faster than in the original history.

As for the negotiations on Wanwan, although they were more sincere in all aspects, they were not willing to make concessions on the shareholding. In fact, Wanwan itself directly asked for 40%, which is similar to a lion's big opening. From now on, it can be regarded as a formal Entered the normal negotiation process.

The time soon came to mid-June. On this day, Chen Zhiwen invited several people from the Taishan Club to discuss investment in Hong Kong.

"Guo Sheng, I didn't expect you to come to Hong Kong so soon. It seems that you are ready to do something big?" Hu Yingxiang said with a smile while eating the prepared fruit.

"Since the direction of investment has been decided, it must be decisive." Guo Henian smiled and said: "But the main thing is that before, the mainland also approached me and wanted me to invest in the World Trade Center. I probably forgot it at that time. Let’s see how much money I can mobilize without affecting various businesses. Later, Chen Sheng invested in the China World Trade Center, but I have collected all kinds of information here, and now I decide to invest in Hong Kong, which is naturally much more convenient.”

"It turns out that the mainland has already looked for you. This is because I stole your business." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile. It is estimated that they may not only be looking for the two of them in the country. I hope that many people can compete. However, even if such a large investment project is profitable in the future, few people can afford such a large sum of money. Most normal businessmen, even if they have so many assets, will not Dare to invest in this way, it will affect other industries.

"That's not the case. Our family members are against this matter, and I am also hesitant. It is really too much money. It may be because of the same reason. I haven't replied to the mainland for a long time. And Chen Sheng, you Bian reacts quickly, so it is naturally the first choice for the mainland." Guo Henian said with a smile.

"Forget it, no matter what, it's the same for you to invest in Hong Kong. In terms of return rate, it may not be lower than the International Trade Center." Chen Zhiwen said with a light smile.

Since Guo Henian has robbed Guo Henian of a big project, let him enjoy the future wealth appreciation of Hong Kong, which can be regarded as a reciprocal transaction. If he does well, he can get a few buildings or shopping malls in Hong Kong, and the income is actually not much worse than that of the International Trade Center. I can also take this opportunity to solve the problem of Hisense Bank's inability to lend funds.

In terms of various medium and large-scale investments, no consortium can only invest in one place. Even Japan, which is often independent of the international market, has begun to invest funds overseas after the consortium has become strong. This is also the epitome of Hutchison No matter how much capital there is, it is impossible to only invest in Hong Kong. Otherwise, if you monopolize too much profit, it will also cause resistance from everyone. up.

And the mainland is also a very suitable place for long-term investment, and the scale is large enough. Whether it is ports, high-speed infrastructure, large office buildings, shopping malls, etc., there will be a lot of demand in the future, which is suitable for Hutchison. Investment in Japan It's speculation, making quick money, and it's the opposite in China.

"Then shall we do it now? I have already set my sights on a villa complex in the north corner of Hong Kong Island. There are almost 26 buildings. I can't sell them now. I can buy them at a low price." Guo Henian said.

"Villa area? That's not bad, I'll pay more attention next time." Bao Yugang on the side also said with a smile, Hu Yingxiang didn't say anything, but he might have the same idea.

"The villa area is indeed a good investment, but my suggestion is, don't make it for the time being. In the past few months, you should first choose the partner and negotiate the price with the other party, but don't trade. In addition, the foreign exchange in your hands should not be exchanged for the time being. Hong Kong dollars." Chen Zhiwen said.

"What Chen Sheng means is that there will be problems with the Hong Kong dollar?" Bao Yugang is a smart person, and he immediately understood what Chen Zhiwen meant. The other two also immediately looked at Chen Zhiwen, obviously understanding.

"Yes, the current situation, I think there will be problems soon, not to mention other factors, that is, a large number of Hong Kong people are now applying for immigration. These people are not only large in number, but also very different from those who immigrated before. I sold my assets in Hong Kong, especially houses, stocks, commercial real estate, etc. This situation not only made it difficult for the real estate market to recover and has been falling, but also caused a large amount of US dollar foreign exchange in the hands of the Hong Kong government to be consumed. Trying to maintain the exchange rate, but in the case of such a large number of transactions, the Hong Kong dollar has to fall a lot. Once the Hong Kong government can't stand it and starts to restrict the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar, it will actually cause a sharp depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar. I don't know if it can be recovered in the future, but This situation, if there is no GJ-level financial support, it will definitely happen." Chen Zhiwen analyzed.

Under the leadership of the United States, many countries around the world have begun to abandon foreign exchange controls, and their own currencies can be freely converted into US dollars. The problem is that it will lead to a large amount of foreign exchange leaving, and even local people will exchange foreign exchange, which will lead to a comprehensive economic collapse. Since the 1980s, there have been sovereign debt crises or major financial crises. This is one of the essential reasons, and it is also the United States. One of the means of harvesting the world.

The simplest example is an emerging market that has just developed. After a consortium of US$100 million of foreign capital enters the market, it invests in real estate. Then the country’s economy develops well, and housing prices rise three times. Then the consortium withdraws and takes away US$300 million. Among them, 200 million may have been exchanged by tens of millions of textile workers in countless factories in the country with countless fingers.

There are a lot of foreign capital operating in this way. Originally, if everything is normal, everyone will wait, but nothing can be smooth sailing. There will always be various situations. The funds earned from countless years of development will collapse completely, and they may even owe a large debt.

On the surface of the Asian financial crisis, Soros launched an attack, but the root cause was doomed in the 1980s. Without Soros, there would be others. The total amount of the country and the country's foreign exchange reserves, when the former exceeds the latter, they will be withdrawn immediately, which can also wipe out decades of development of the entire country.

Therefore, some countries have been adopting a strict foreign exchange control model, and at the same time prohibit foreign investment from participating in real estate and other projects. They are worried that once foreign capital expands tenfold or more through real estate, it will impact the hard work of hundreds of millions of people. foreign exchange reserves.

Of course, in the case of choosing one of the two, either one actually has its own disadvantages and its own advantages, and whether it is good or bad depends entirely on who is right. There is no right or wrong, it's just that different interest groups benefit or suffer differently.

"In fact, I have predicted this situation, but I don't know when it will happen. Chen Shengneng will definitely be in a few months?" Bao Yugang asked. As a ship king, he naturally has a lot of foreign exchange in his hands. If the Hong Kong dollar is about to plummet , he must also be prepared.

"Almost, I'm also predicting. Who can say that this kind of thing is completely sure." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said, he would not make promises foolishly, even verbally.

"I believe in Chen Sheng's judgment. I have no reason to doubt Chen Sheng's investment performance over the years. It's only a few months anyway, and it won't delay our acquisition. Let's use it as an investigation of the market in the early stage." Guo Henian smiled. Said.

"Yes." Hu Yingxiang nodded and said.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, Chen Zhiwen signaled, and an assistant went to open the door, and it was Hehuang's Zhou Jiayang who walked in.

"Chen Sheng." After the Zhou family Yang came in, he looked at a few people and greeted them politely: "Bao Sheng, Guo Sheng, Hu Sheng."

In terms of identity, Zhou Jiayang is naturally inferior to a few people, even if he has more capital than them, it is not his own anyway, and these people have a good relationship with the boss, so he is naturally more polite.

"What's the matter?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

"Our investment in Australia has paid off." Zhou Jiayang said excitedly.

"Christmas Creek? It's okay, let's talk directly." Chen Zhiwen saw that Zhou Jiayang might want to talk to him alone, but he didn't expect that there were several other people present.

The iron ore in Christmas Creek is an important project of Hehuang Mining Company, but because Chen Zhiwen only knew that the mine was in Christmas Creek, he didn't know where it was, so he spent a lot of money to directly cover the survey rights in that area , Fortunately, there is no mining survey history there, and the price is not too outrageous.

And after about two years of searching, the survey team has finally found the approximate location, but it will take a while to confirm. It seems that it is almost the same now, and this kind of thing does not need to be kept secret. Let outsiders know that it is not a small gold mine that can be secretly invested.

"Yes, the iron ore in Christmas Creek, based on the current survey, has at least 1.25 billion tons, and all of them are high-quality iron ore, with a content of more than 50%." Zhou Jiayang said.

"1.25 billion tons of iron ore?" Guo Henian, Bao Yugang, and Hu Yingxiang couldn't help staring at Lao Yuan.
