Chapter 361 [Pretend X 50 years ago!]

It's another spring!

On March 12, 1963, the listed company Cheung Kong Industrial announced its 1962 annual report, in which the net profit was as high as 188 million Hong Kong dollars!

Hong Kong and Kowloon are in an uproar, Hong Kong and Kowloon are shocked!

It turns out that Cheung Kong Holdings is already the most profitable real estate company on Hong Kong Island, and there is no one;

Analyzed by industry professionals, this profit may be from the Hong Kong Island real estate industry, which accounted for 25% to 30% of the total real estate profit in 1962;

And the old real estate company, Land, in 1962, the net profit was not even a fraction of Cheung Kong's, only 48 million Hong Kong dollars.

Of course, the reason why Cheung Kong has such a high profit is naturally because it sold a large number of residential units last year;

Currently, about 75% of the six residential properties developed by Changjiang Industrial have sold out;

Because of this, there is such a terrifying net profit!

Land Land Corporation is conservative in its management. Although there are many home purchases in the Central District, it only rents but does not sell;

Even a large number of old commercial buildings do not dare to tear down and build new buildings!

Such profit of Changjiang Industrial has naturally driven the stock price;

The share price of Cheung Kong Holdings has climbed continuously in three days, and even touched the threshold of 20 Hong Kong dollars.

On March 15th, Cheung Kong Holdings announced the first interim dividend of 0.55 Hong Kong dollars per share, and everyone was happy for a while!

Such a high dividend, it is naturally a good applause, and the people of Hong Kong Island praised it-it is indeed the company of the God of Wealth.

On this day, Wu Guangyao was surrounded by a few reporters on his way off work;

Wu Guangyao has bodyguards, but based on the principle of establishing a good relationship with reporters, he decided to accept a short interview;

This situation has always been the default in Hong Kong Island’s wealthy circles, and everyone will not easily offend reporters;

Even if Wu Guangyao is still the biggest reporter on Hong Kong Island, he will not offend reporters from other newspapers;

Because I am a public figure, it is still very important to have a good relationship with reporters. Of course, there is a premise, that is, not to touch your bottom line.

"Mr. Wu, is Cheung Kong in the competition with Land Corporation?" a reporter asked first.

This statement is easy to understand. Some people on Hong Kong Island will think that, Wu Guangyao likes big projects, likes big investments, and he must want to surpass Land;

There is even a saying on Hong Kong Island, that is, South Land and North Yangtze;

means that Land is the real estate hegemon of the island, and Cheung Kong is the real estate hegemon of Kowloon.

As for Wu Guangyao’s private real estate company, Cheung Kong Real Estate, because it is not a listed company, the public still don’t know much about the specific situation;

If you let these people know that Cheung Kong Real Estate also has the strength to challenge Land, then it will be another big news.

The reporter’s question didn’t stop Wu Guangyao. Wu Guangyao said: “From the moment I entered the real estate industry, my opponent was only myself!”

After Wu Guangyao said this, he seemed to think of something and frowned;

It turned out that Wu Guangyao was worried that this sentence would be misunderstood by reporters, or deliberately misinterpreted!

"Mr. Wu, about how much money do you have?" A reporter suddenly thrown out fierce information.

Wu Guangyao thought, a group of reporters thought that Wu Guangyao was taking an inventory, and they looked at Wu Guangyao with passion.

"I don't know, I just thought about it, I really don't know how much property I have!"

"Maybe, when a person does not know how much property he has, then he is truly rich!"

The reporters heard Wu Guangyao's words before, and they were immediately disappointed!

Unexpectedly, Wu Guangyao’s next sentence almost caused the reporters to throw away the machine in their hands!

Top you a lung!

Have been doing it for a long time, just when everyone thought that Wu Guangyao was hesitating about his own property, it was inevitable to be a little disappointed;

As a result, Wu Guangyao came directly to the hot spot. It turned out that the **** of wealth on Hong Kong Island did not know how much property he had.

What does this mean, this one is too much money, I can’t remember!

Wu Guangyao did not accept an interview next time. This kind of interview was not formal in the first place, just a few sentences at random!

The next day, Wu Guangyao almost didn't jump up when he saw the newspaper!

"The reporters of these dogs talk about troubles!"

It turned out that after yesterday’s reporter polished Wu Guangyao’s words, it became:

"Shark bravely claims that it has never regarded Land Land as an opponent!"

"The shark bravely claimed that his wealth is too much to remember!"

Wu Guangyao expressed his helplessness. It turns out that the title party had already existed in the 1960s!

Yesterday, Wu Guangyao didn’t mention the word “di” at all;

As for wealth, Wu Guangyao just wants to euphemistically say that he can't remember clearly and it is not convenient to answer!

Ti, he has always been the only one who cheated others. I didn’t expect to be cheated by a reporter from Sing Tao Newspaper this time.

It is necessary to find the place and teach Hu Xian a profound lesson. This is Wu Guangyao's first thought.

How to teach, then learn from Murdoch for later generations!

said that when Wu Guangyao was torturing the whole person, the three Musketeers came to Wu Guangyao's office together.

"Boss, the Works Bureau has approved our three building plans!" Shi Jun said.

The last three plots of Changjiang Industrial were planned and ready for development at the beginning of the year.

At this time, before the bank run in 1965 caused house prices to plummet, there are still two years left, enough for Cheung Kong to operate.

"Well, let's start!" Wu Guangyao said absently.

The three of them looked at Wu Guangyao holding the newspaper in their hands, and immediately knew why the boss was absent-minded. It was not the matter of the reporters.

"Boss, you don't need to pay attention to this kind of thing, everyone will forget it in a few days!" Shi Jun persuaded.

Wu Guangyao put down the newspaper and said, "What you said makes sense! But Wu Guangyao is not the kind of person who has been beaten by others and doesn't fight back. Since the reporter of Sing Tao Daily has long liked to make me a little trouble. Then I will give them a surprise too, so just wait for a good show!"

On the same day, Wu Guangyao came to Oriental Media Group and held a temporary meeting

"For a long time, our Oriental Press has gained a lot of loyal readers; therefore, in order to give back to new and old customers, we have launched a big promotion with an uncertain time period."

After listening to Wu Guangyao's words, everyone seemed to think of something, but there was no abnormality on their faces.

"The boss is right! In fact, advertising is also the key to the profitability of print media. For example, our magazines, although sales are far lower than newspapers, but the proportion of advertising revenue is very high; therefore, for the promotion of newspapers, the subsequent advertising costs will also be corresponding. Increase!" Yang Kang immediately responded.

For a time, everyone agreed!

Everyone is thinking in their hearts, that there is a hound that provokes the lion, and the lion is not taken seriously!

All along, Wu Guangyao has been very friendly to the newspaper industry on Hong Kong Island based on the principle of living in harmony;

After all, the newspaper industry cannot make a lot of money, so Wu Guangyao did not target these newspapers, especially the "Sing Tao Daily";

However, the reporter of "Sing Tao Daily" repeatedly tried to find out about Wu Guangyao's body. No matter how good his temper, Wu Guangyao decided to give them some color!
