Rebirth 1984: Starting from the development of Hanka

Chapter 282 Settled in Lujiazui

PS: (I won’t write more about the plot of the flood, for fear of being censored, the chapters that were censored before are already available for viewing)
Not long after, Wujiang Group shocked the whole country by announcing a donation of 50 billion yuan.

People were shocked and couldn't help but praise Wujiang Group and Zhao Ye.

"Wujiang Group not only donated a large amount of materials, but also donated so much money, which is really amazing! If China had a charity ranking list, Zhao Ye would definitely be the No. 1 charity in my country!!!"

"Zhao Ye has donated so much money, we must at least do some small part!"

"That's right, everyone has the money to contribute and the ability to contribute. As long as everyone contributes a piece of love, the world will become a beautiful world!"

"..."

Upon seeing this, all walks of life enthusiastically donated money and materials, including countless overseas compatriots from all over the world, with great momentum.

When the foreign media saw this, they couldn't help but be shocked!
They have never seen such a united and cohesive nation and country!

Later, when the foreign media saw Chinese soldiers risking their lives to build a "levee" to fight the flood, they were even more shocked!

How can this be? !
How did they do that? !

Aren't they afraid of death? ? ?
Chinese soldiers are so scary! ! !

A flood could not help but witness the great love and responsibility in the world, and the glory of human nature.

At the end of August, China achieved victory in fighting floods.

China's mobilization ability and China's military-civilian unity all demonstrate China's powerful power, which can't help but shock the world!
This is the ancient eastern country!

This is China with 5000 years of civilization!
Foreigners were stunned and couldn't help but admire such a country.

For a time, countless foreigners became curious and concerned about China.

"I didn't expect that a country as poor as China could explode with such amazing power. That kind of national cohesion is really shocking. This is something that no other country in the world has, especially an immigrant country like Country M, which has no national heritage at all. . But it’s right to think about it. Since you can immigrate to country M, of course you can also immigrate to other countries. For these people, whichever country develops better will immigrate to this country, but it will never have any negative impact on this country. Too deep emotions..." A European said with regret, his heart full of envy.

At this time, post-disaster reconstruction work had begun in China.

The country has also begun to reward those who have made significant contributions to flood fighting and disaster relief.

In the "News Broadcast", the leader spent a few minutes praising Zhao Ye and Wujiang Group, specifically pointing out that without Wujiang Group's resolute investment of US$500 billion to build the Three Gorges Dam, the level of flood damage would have increased several times. .Wujiang Group has saved countless lives and property!
As soon as the news came out, people discovered that what Wujiang Group had done far exceeded their imagination.

Why did Wujiang Group invest in building the Three Gorges Dam?Obviously this super project requires huge investment and takes a long time, so it is not a good project at all?Don't you see that other companies are rushing to invest in projects that can make huge profits in the short term? Only Wujiang Group is so "stupid"! !

"Made, I'm so moved that I almost cried! Wujiang Group is really a great company. From now on, all my consumption will be spent on Wujiang Group! Wujiang Group deserves to make money!!!" said a domestic official. Netizens commented with great excitement.

"At this moment, I was also deeply moved by Wujiang Group's actions! For a company as good as Wujiang Group, we must strongly support it. Everyone should buy Wujiang Group's products in the future!"

"..."

After the news spread, it caused a nationwide sensation.

Countless people are flocking to Wujiang flagship stores, Wujiang supermarkets, Wanjiang department stores, Amazon websites, and Taobao websites to shop.

Crazy buying, buying, buying! ! !
Many physical retail stores have sold out of their products in just a day or two.

After Zhao Ye learned the news, he couldn't help being shocked.

Many people don't actually lack anything at home, but they still keep buying in order to support Wujiang Group.

Zhao Ye thought about it and held a press conference to call on everyone to consume rationally.

But netizens don’t seem to buy it.

"Reasonable consumption? I'm sorry, I don't like rational consumption. Can you control it? If you are sensible, just let the factory work overtime to produce goods. I still want to buy!!!"

"The mountains and rivers are clear and the world is worthy. Wujiang Group only sells goods and leaves the rest to us!"

"..."

For a time, Wujiang Group's revenue surged. In just one week, it created 1000 billion yuan in revenue, which shocked countless companies at home and abroad.

Only then did they discover that doing charity and winning people's hearts would have such great rewards, which also made them keen on charity in the future. This also led to the scale of China's charity being far larger than in previous lives, thus helping more people.Of course, this is something to talk about later, let’s not mention it for now.

……

……

As time passes, “wild consumption” ebbs.

However, Wujiang Group’s domestic market share has increased significantly compared with before.

Moreover, the philanthropic aura of Wujiang Group has given Wujiang Group an additional layer of protection.

At the end of 1998, the Lujiazui Super Project was finally completed.

Dozens of beautiful skyscrapers stand out on this small piece of land, including the "world's tallest building" - Wujiang Building!
Wujiang Building, 828 meters high, has a "Y" shape on the floor, and is gradually connected from three building parts into a core body. It is surrounded by Wujiang Shopping Center, 19 residential buildings, a 2.5-hectare park and a 12-hectare park. lake.

The completion of Wujiang Building shocked the whole world and has become a new landmark of Shanghai!

In addition, the Candlelight Tower in the Wind, Burj Al Arab Hotel, Anara Tower, Galaxy Twin Towers (Kuala Lumpur Petroleum Towers), Jin Mao Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, Shanghai Tower, Wanjiang Yipin (Thomson Yipin), and The Bay View of Google’s new campus tent in the previous life, the Apple Spaceship Headquarters Building, and the Amazon Headquarters Building Helix...

Lujiazui combines beauty and technology, making it the most charming place in the world.

Even Manhattan Island in country M is far inferior to Lujiazui.

The buildings on Manhattan Island were old buildings many years ago. Not to mention anything else, in terms of height, they were directly crushed into slag.

Currently, the Wujiang Building is 828 meters tall, the tallest in the world;

Shanghai Tower, 632 meters high, ranks second in the world;

Shanghai World Financial Center, 492 meters high, ranks third in the world;

The Galaxy Twin Towers, 462 meters high, are the fourth tallest in the world.

Lujiazui directly accounts for the top four skyscraper height rankings, which is simply awesome to the extreme.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lujiazui has already attracted worldwide attention!
Before Lujiazui opened, countless people spontaneously came to the Bund and took photos of Lujiazui.

It is worth mentioning that the original Lujiazui had an area of ​​only 31.78 km, while the new Lujiazui has an area of ​​70 km. Wujiang Group merged a lot of land behind Lujiazui into Lujiazui, but most of the land was used to build the R&D building.

……

……

"Everyone, please note that Director Zhao has sent an email to all employees. Starting in 1999, the entire Wujiang Group began to move into Lujiazui one after another!!!"

At this time, many executives of the subsidiary began to tell employees the good news.

All employees were overjoyed and couldn't help but feel proud. They were even so excited that they couldn't sleep at night.

"Ahhhhh, I can finally move into Lujiazui. Oh my god, I'm so excited. The construction in Lujiazui is so beautiful. It's the place everyone dreams of!!!"

"I've been looking forward to it for so long, and I'm finally moving into Lujiazui. My buddies will probably be jealous of me, hahaha..." "..."

At this time, when the content of the email sent by Zhao Ye to the employees was exposed, it immediately caused a sensation on the entire Internet.

Countless netizens expressed their envy and hatred.

"Nah, I really want to work in Wujiang Group! It must be great to work in such a high-end and high-end skyscraper! I'm jealous!"

"Stop talking, I will study quickly and work hard to join the Wujiang Group in the future!"

"I would like to ask, what are the requirements to join Wujiang Group? I have graduated from high school, is there still a chance?"

"Brother, if you have a chance, you can go to the New Oriental Training School under the Wujiang Education Group for further study and learn programming. After graduation, you can join the Wujiang Group as a coder..."

"Brother, it's good to learn programming. It's easy to find a job. There is a company under Wujiang Group that specializes in software outsourcing, that is, OEM. The requirements of this company are not high. If you have a certain basic knowledge of English and programming, you can work in it. You can make a living there. The strengths of New Oriental Training School are English and programming. By the way, I am the senior of New Oriental Training School, and I welcome all my juniors to join New Oriental Training School!"

"Let me go, and a random netizen I met is a student of New Oriental Training School? Are there so many students graduating from our school? I am also from New Oriental Training School!"

"There must be many. There are New Oriental training schools in almost first-, second- and third-tier cities. The number of students who have graduated has exceeded 10! However, most people are engaged in software outsourcing work, and the salary is much higher than working in factories outside. . A few outstanding students have directly entered large Internet companies such as Wujiang Portal, Baidu, Amazon, Alibaba, Taobao, ICQ..."

"..."

The completion of Lujiazui has allowed Wujiang Group to attract more talents at home and abroad to join.

Through Lujiazui, Wujiang Group also showed the world its strength.

As soon as people see Lujiazui, they can't help but sigh from the bottom of their hearts, Wujiang Group is really awesome!
On January 1999, 1, Wujiang Group began to move into Lujiazui.

At the same time, major global companies have settled in Lujiazui.

Lujiazui will definitely be China's financial center in the future. Being able to work here reflects the strength of the company.

Many Fortune [-] companies such as GE, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Citibank, Panasonic, Sony, and HSBC had already negotiated settlement agreements with Wujiang Group before Lujiazui was even built.

In February 1999, the rent for office buildings in Lujiazui hit the highest level in the world, reaching as high as US$2 per square foot per year. Wujiang Group was hamstrung just by collecting rent every year.

……

……

As time passed, the joy of moving into Lujiazui gradually calmed down.

In the previous life, in 2000, the Internet bubble burst.

The Internet bubble in this life has also been blown up so much that there is not much time left for Wujiang Group.

It is imminent for Internet companies to go public to make money.

Beginning in February 1999, many websites under the Wujiang Group began financing and IPO plans.

"Liu Yinyin, you are now letting people release the news, saying that Amazon, Alibaba, Taobao, Rotten Tomatoes, Netflix, Pandora and other websites under the Wujiang Group are preparing to launch financing and IPO plans!"

Zhao Ye called Liu Yinyin and gave instructions.

"Director Zhao, are you sure that so many websites are going to start financing and IPO?" Liu Yinyin asked with a face full of surprise.

"Well, sure, you should do as I tell you now!" Zhao Ye nodded and said, "After one or two rounds of financing, these websites will prepare for IPO."

"Okay, Director Zhao!" Liu Yinyin didn't say much. The boss's decision has always been the most correct.

After walking out of the office, Liu Yinyin began to arrange for people to reveal the financing and IPO plans of major websites under the Wujiang Group.

Soon, major investment companies around the world received the news.

Immediately, he contacted Wujiang Group immediately and prepared to participate in the investment.

This time is definitely a gluttonous feast for capital. Countless investment companies are excited and want to invest in it so as to share the dividends after the IPO.

At this time, we can see the benefits of settling in Lujiazui.

As the saying goes, "first come first served", investment companies renting office buildings in Lujiazui can come to Wujiang Group to discuss cooperation at the first time, which inherently has greater advantages than other companies.

This has made many investment companies that did not rent office buildings in Lujiazui regret.

Wujiang Group has entered a busy negotiation stage since mid-February.

Although Zhao Ye is anxious to get these websites to raise funds and then go public, he still has no intention of lowering the valuation of the websites.

Wujiang Group is very rich. At worst, it will choose to go public directly through IPO.

This makes it impossible for investment companies to handle Wujiang Group.

Generally speaking, investors are the bosses and angels, but in the case of Wujiang Group, it is the other way around. Investors have an even lower status and try every means to plead with Wujiang Group to let them get investment opportunities.

At this time, major media outlets around the world were stationed in Lujiazui every day, trying to inquire about the negotiations between major investment companies and Wujiang Group.

The entire Internet industry is also paying attention here.

There are various gossips every day, whether true or false, they can always cause a sensation.

……

"Director Zhao, after many rounds of negotiations, the valuation given by the investors can basically meet our requirements!"

In the conference room of Wujiang Group, Zhao Ye and the heads of major websites under Wujiang Group gathered together.

After Liu Yinyin finished speaking, she handed the document to Zhao Ye for review.

Zhao Ye took it over and took a look at it and read: "Alibaba is valued at US$205 billion, Amazon is valued at US$315 billion, Taobao is valued at US$385 billion..."

Behind the valuation of each website, there is also the proportion of shares held by the investment company.

In this financing, each website only sold 20% of its shares and adopted an AB share structure. Class A shares have 10 votes and Class B shares have 1 voting right.Even though Wujiang Group only holds a small amount of shares, it can still firmly control the company!

In the conference room, everyone was both excited and worried.

There is no doubt that so many websites are financing and launching IPOs, which will definitely inflate the Internet bubble.Once the Internet bubble bursts, the consequences will be catastrophic.

Zhao Ye raised his head and glanced at everyone's expressions, knowing what everyone was worried about.

Don’t those investment companies know about the Internet bubble?
Haha, they obviously all know, but they are still willing to invest in websites owned by Wujiang Group.

Everyone is playing "pass the ball" in the Internet bubble. Whoever takes over last will be unlucky in the end.

Global investors are undoubtedly the most likely to be the last to take over...

For Wujiang Group, there are currently very few people in China who have the ability to go to country M to play stocks. Therefore, the biggest victims are undoubtedly the investors in country M.If that's the case, then go to hell!
