Chapter 152 Inventory of Family Property
Liu Zhicheng may be just a temporary support for her, and there are many uncertain factors in the future.

Although she has been conquered by Liu Zhicheng both physically and mentally, she still cannot accept love without marriage, an unfair love.

So, she thought she had only found a temporary support, but she was willing to get pregnant and have a child for him.

Why would I fall in love with such a scumbag? Even though I'm not devoted to him, I'm willing to do it.

When Liu Zhicheng found out, he began to shake his head helplessly. He thought she was joking at first, but he didn't expect she was serious.

Liu Zhicheng is a responsible man. He decided to stand up bravely and take on the responsibilities that a man should have.

In Liu Zhicheng's memory, there was a saying in his previous life: If you smoke while reading the Bible, it is disrespectful and blasphemous; but if you do not forget to read the Bible while smoking, it is a manifestation of piety.

There are many such hypocritical things in human society. No matter what the essence of a thing is, it must first conform to the mainstream moral concept in name.

No. 75, Deep Water Bay.

Liu Zhicheng and Yang Minli came to this old-style villa covering an area of ​​more than 2 square feet. Recently, Liu Zhicheng bought it from a British trading company for 3500 million yuan.

It cannot be said to be cheap. After all, this is still a "deserted" hillside.

But it cannot be said to be expensive. Compared with the prices in later generations, one is in heaven and the other is on earth.

Strictly speaking, the geographical location of Deep Water Bay is not as advantageous as that of Repulse Bay.

The reason why it became as famous as Repulse Bay in later generations was that people like Li Chaoren, the charter king, Kadoorie, and Xu Shixun lived here.

The celebrity effect has driven up housing prices in Deep Water Bay.

The villa at No. 75 Deep Water Bay that Liu Zhicheng bought was actually very old and had to be rebuilt at great cost.

Holding Yang Minli's hand, Liu Zhicheng tirelessly introduced his ideas for reconstruction.

Because he has lived two lives, he knew some of the villa design concepts of Hong Kong's wealthy people in his previous life.

Therefore, the villa described in the picture made Yang Minli yearn for it very much.

Although Liu Zhicheng had no plans to get married before, it certainly did not affect his having sons and daughters, otherwise there would be no one to inherit his family property in the future.

Thinking of this problem, Liu Zhicheng couldn't help but think of Wang Dehui, a wealthy man in the city. This was really miserable; not only did he have no descendants, but he was later kidnapped and killed.

You should know that in the mid-250s, his wife Gong Xinru was ranked fifth on the list of super billionaires together with Feiting Huo, and their net worth reached billion respectively.

Liu Zhicheng had read some reports in his previous life and believed that a major reason why Wang Dehui was repeatedly kidnapped was that he had money but no power.

Liu Zhicheng and Wang Dehui are in similar situations now, but they cannot be said to be powerless. Hong Kong belongs to capitalism.

The Tiantian Newspaper Group that he now controls is a powerful force, but he still feels that it is not enough.

Just imagine, there are two situations in which it is unlikely to become the prey of kidnappers: having no money and power, and having money and power.

The kidnappers' purpose is to get money, so they must find a rich person.

But when you are rich and powerful, the kidnappers will not dare to act rashly, and at least will think twice.

In order to ensure his own safety, Liu Zhi has established a security company and obtained some privileges, which will at least raise the level of security.

Liu Zhiben originally planned to remain single for the rest of his life, but he was still prepared to return to the mainstream moral concepts of this society.

"Amin, from now on this will be our home. The children you give birth to will be the first in line to inherit my property."

In order to appease Yang Minli, Liu Zhicheng used his ultimate move.

Although it may not necessarily make her completely devoted to him, at least it will make me feel better.

"Brother Cheng, don't worry, although you can't give me everything,
But at least I will give birth to a son for you, and I will do it willingly." Yang Minli whispered.

Liu Zhicheng glanced at the woman leaning on his arms and touched her head happily.

Liu Zhicheng never thought that he would have such a fucked-up day.

Is it really easy to be reborn once and want everything? Isn’t that a bit too greedy?
But no matter what, I should be nicer to her in the future.

Regarding the reconstruction of No. 75 Deep Water Bay, Liu Zhicheng specially asked Shanfeng Investment to form a team to take charge of it.

As for the required funds, all of them were paid from Liu Zhicheng's secret fund.

Because Shanfeng Investment is his personal property, it is equivalent to his own private treasury.

.........

Recently, Liu Zhicheng is immersed in the happiness of being a prospective father, but he is also troubled.

Ever since Liu Zhicheng got into the incident with Yang Minli, he was basically nagged by his parents whenever he returned home.

Unexpectedly, since Yin Huifen wanted to persuade Yang Minli to move into the Liu residence in Repulse Bay, it might be because they are old now and are eager to take care of their grandchildren.

Liu Zhicheng had no choice but to follow his parents' wishes.

As for the wedding, Liu Zhicheng didn't care too much about it and put it aside completely because he was too busy.

Of course, these are just excuses. Deep down in his heart, he still has some resistance to marriage.

…………

After the Spring Festival, the Federal Building.

Liu Zhicheng was discussing business matters with Han Chunxi, and Cherie Chung also joined the discussion.

In order to improve his ability to be a hands-off manager, Liu Zhicheng promoted Han Chunxi to the position of deputy general manager of Shanfeng Investment.

Han Chunxi thus became a person second only to Liu Zhicheng and his will was Liu Zhicheng's will.

Therefore, all matters of the group, big or small, were reported to Liu Zhicheng as well as to Han Chunxi.

"How many shares of Kowloon Motor Bus do we hold now?" Liu Zhicheng asked.

"Mr. Liu, Whampoa Group has already acquired 34.9% of Kowloon Motor Bus's shares.

We have also obtained the management rights of Kowloon Motor Bus through the shareholders' meeting, but we have not touched the management." Han Chunxi reported.

"Okay, this is just a company providing real estate services, just operate it normally." Liu Zhicheng nodded and said.

Liu Zhicheng really had no interest in getting involved with Kowloon Motor Bus, a small company that wasn't even among the top 100 listed companies in Hong Kong.

But today the main purpose is to take stock of his own assets and give some instructions. Liu Zhicheng must know the situation of his shareholding.

After the Whampoa Group decided to acquire KMB, it commissioned Wardley to look for an acquisition for Kowloon Motor Bus.

The existing KMB shareholders were conquered one by one, and finally enough shares were directly acquired, so taking over was a natural thing.

This is also a benefit of Hong Kong's capital society, even though Liu Zhicheng lost face for HSBC when he acquired Hutchison Whampoa.

But as the most important investment company under HSBC, as long as it is for profit, Hudley doesn't care who it serves.

"Mr. Liu, there is one more thing. Many buses under Kowloon Motor Bus are very old.

Many buses are on the road with problems, so I suggest replacing some of them," said Han Chunxi.

"Replace what needs to be replaced. While making money, safety is more important.

In addition, many buses do not even have air conditioning, so I think we should replace them with luxury air-conditioned buses in one step," Liu Zhicheng instructed.

"At least, the route between Huangpu City and Harbour City must be completed in one step.
We should also open more buses from Yuen Long Industrial Park to Hong Kong and Kowloon. You should all know the benefits of this." Liu Zhicheng continued to instruct.

Although KMB is a public service company and a listed company, it should take the initiative to serve the citizens and solve their travel difficulties.

But Liu Zhicheng doesn't care whether KMB makes money or not. He only cares whether his subsidiaries can profit from it.

KMB first serves the residents of properties under the Whampoa Group.

Another one is to provide traffic-driving services for its several major shopping malls.

To put it bluntly, it means serving yourself first.

"The Star Ferry also needs to be upgraded. Previously, the ferries were not enclosed on all sides.
We should buy a few luxury ferries with windows," Liu Zhicheng instructed.

"If we were to buy a fully enclosed ferry, the cost would increase.

Moreover, the carrying capacity may be affected. The Hong Kong government has set restrictions on the ticket prices for the Star Ferry.
I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to recover the cost." Han Chunxi thought for a moment and said.

"These ferries are first and foremost intended to divert traffic to Harbour City and Whampoa City. And with the opening of multiple cross-harbour tunnels, more people will definitely choose buses when travelling."

“The number of tourists coming to Hong Kong is gradually increasing, and in the future, more tourists will definitely take boat trips to tour the Victoria Harbour.

No matter what, please renovate the ferry first, improve its quality, add more services, and try to attract more tourists."

"And the disembarkation route should also be adjusted appropriately. After they disembark, we should guide them to spend money in Harbour City and Whampoa City. Wouldn't we make more money this way?"

Liu Zhicheng also thought that under his policy, the Star Ferry and Kowloon Motor Bus would definitely suffer losses in the future.

After all, this is a publicly listed company, and I can't go too far. After thinking for a while, I continued to instruct:

"Take advantage of the current hot stock market and raise funds through rights issue first, and then follow my instructions to invest."

Liu Zhicheng's investment is actually very simple. Whether it is financial investment or bottom fishing during a stock market crash, he must make a profit no matter what.

This is not only to gain recognition from shareholders, but also to be responsible to shareholders and to be a good boss in the eyes of investors.

"Okay, I'll discuss this with Manager Hao and pass on Mr. Liu's instructions.

Increase the frequency of flights from various places to Harbour City and Whampoa City." Han Chunxi nodded and said.

Not every business is about making every penny.

This kind of public service company can also gain a better reputation if it can provide good service.

Besides, if the public service company does not improve its services, how can it earn money from Hong Kong citizens or tourists?

"Not only that, we should also increase cooperation with travel companies.
As long as they lead tour groups to Harbour City and Huangpu City, they can take the ferry for free." Liu Zhicheng said with a smile.

Currently, the main business of Whampoa Group is Harbour City, Whampoa City and its real estate development.

Other businesses are actually not small in scale, but they are only for real estate services, such as hotels, parking companies, and commercial management companies.

Whether Kowloon Motor Bus and Star Ferry make money or not has little impact on the Whampoa Group.

If the business of its shopping malls can be improved, it will make more money overall.

"There is also the issue of domestic investment in infrastructure. Shanfeng Investment needs to cooperate with Mr. Hu on this matter.

The Guangzhou-Shenzhen and Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan expressways are large-scale projects that we have invested in the mainland, and we will make a decision with the mainland as soon as possible."

Liu Zhicheng tapped the table with his fingers and continued, "In addition, regarding the planning of highway lanes,

We should plan ahead. The first construction can be a two-way four-lane road, but when the land is acquired,
We need to acquire all the land for the 8-lane expressway to prepare for future expansion.”

As the busiest highway in the country in the future, four lanes in both directions are definitely not enough.

But building 8 lanes now seems a bit wasteful.

Therefore, while the land price is cheap now, we should first expropriate the corresponding land, and then expand it when needed in the future.

"Eight lanes in both directions?" Han Chunxi asked with some surprise.

"There are indeed not many cars on the highways being built in the mainland now, but as the reform and opening-up deepens,
As long as the economy develops, I believe the number of cars will grow exponentially.

So it’s a good idea to prepare the land first.” Liu Zhicheng said with a faint smile.

In fact, it is normal for Han Chunxi to feel surprised now.

If Liu Zhicheng was not a reborn person, he would also doubt the future achievements of the mainland.

"Okay, in the mainland right now, there is no concept of land value.

If the economy really develops, even to the level of some Southeast Asian countries,

Then the cost of expanding the highway will be very high indeed." Han Chunxi nodded.

"Oh, by the way, transfer Yuan Tianfan back, I have something to arrange." Liu Zhicheng ordered again.

Yuan Tianfan is a talent that Liu Zhicheng focuses on training. He must be trained in various positions so that he can take on important responsibilities in the future.

"How much of Shanfeng Investment's own funds can it mobilize now?" Liu Zhicheng finally asked about the highlight of the day.

Han Chunxi seemed to be well prepared. He opened a small notebook and said:
"Juzi Technology turned over reserves last year, including HKD 6.2 million and USD 2770 million.

In addition to the reserve fund of HK$4.1 million previously submitted by Juzi Technology,
2100 million US dollars, plus the dividends from Daya Mining in recent years are 8000 million Hong Kong dollars. "

"At present, the total funds that can be mobilized are 10.3 billion Hong Kong dollars and 4870 million US dollars, not including the 16 billion US dollars gained from gold."

"Okay, got it. Collect these funds first. No one can use them without my permission."

Liu Zhicheng continued, "Mr. Hao will make a big move soon. You should send some people from your team to assist him."

"Yeah," Han Chunxi replied.

Liu Zhicheng's plan included two 10 billion bottom-fishing plans, and it would be the most difficult for the Whampoa Group to raise 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Shanfeng Investment's 10 billion investment plan is relatively simple because it already has almost 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

"You should sell all the shares of Changjiang Company within this year to recover the funds.

Also, tell Mr. Hao that the industrial building in Kowloon has been sold.”

Liu Zhicheng almost forgot that the industrial buildings in Kowloon will experience a plunge in value next year.

The drop reached 7%. Something that was originally worth 300 million Hong Kong dollars would only be worth million Hong Kong dollars at that time.

Liu Zhicheng looked up at Zhong Chuhong, only to see that she said nothing. He smiled and asked:

"Ms. Zhong, you must take good care of Guan Jiahui in the future.

The service work will be mainly handed over to her, and you will be mainly responsible for the contact of the mainland expressway projects in the future."

When Cherie Chung heard her boss's arrangement, she was very surprised.

Encouraged by Liu Zhicheng's eyes, he nodded and said, "Okay, boss."

Now Liu Zhicheng and Zhong Chuhong have an ambiguous relationship. Since they broke through that relationship,

She acted as if nothing had happened and instead worked harder.

This made Liu Zhicheng very satisfied, and he decided to give her a chance. He would be even more satisfied if she could give birth to a child for him.
