Hong Kong Island's wealthy era

Chapter 2 Mr. Lei Jiahua

Chapter 2 Mr. Lei Jiahua

"Dad," Lei Liquan shouted with a smile as soon as he arrived at the chairman's office on the [-]th floor of the Jianye Building in Kowloon, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. He said that the company does not have much business now. You should also let the company take a break as soon as possible so that everyone can I'm very happy, you have worked hard for a year and should rest early."

The chairman's office area is luxurious, with an executive desk and a sofa in the reception area.But Lei Liquan did not sit down, but stood next to the executive desk.Although he was an only son and wanted to be a prince, but thinking that Lei Juehua would die of a heart attack a few years later, he couldn't help but pretend to be a good boy in front of his parents and try to avoid making his father angry as much as possible.

Thinking of this, the Lei family is also an old family in Xiangjiang. The founder Lei Ruide came to Xiangjiang in the early [-]th century and built a family business through hard work.

Lei Ruide gave birth to two sons, the eldest son Lei Juehua and the second son Lei Juekun. People who often read Hong Kong literature also know that Lei Juekun is also a famous figure in Hong Kong.

Lei Ruide left two properties to the Lei family, one was Kowloon Bus and the other was Kowloon Construction.

Strictly speaking, Kowloon Bus is not the foundation of the Lei family, but the Lei family is the largest shareholder of Kowloon Bus, holding 20.00% of the shares.

The founder of Kowloon Bus is Tang Siu-kin. He founded Kowloon Bus in the 30s. It has been nearly half a century. He has also served as the chairman of the board of directors of Kowloon Bus.

However, after the end of World War II, Kowloon Bus encountered financial difficulties. In order to save the company, Tang Siu-kin introduced a new shareholder. This new shareholder was Lei Ruide, the father of Lei Jiehua and Lei Jiekun.

Although the chairman of the board of directors of Kowloon Bus is Tang Siu-kin, the Lei family also has great influence in it. After all, they are the largest shareholder.

Kowloon Bus belongs to the public industry. In [-], the Hong Kong government required Kowloon Bus to abandon its diversified operations and focus on providing transportation services to the public. Otherwise, it would not issue a bus license and set a certain upper limit on the company's profitability.

Therefore, Kowloon Bus cannot make a lot of money at present, but it is very valuable, and the bus parking lot and repair shop land will be very valuable in the future, so it is also a very high-quality ancestral property.

The Lei family has always operated Kowloon Construction as its main business.

Kowloon Construction was a real estate business that was spun off from Kowloon Bus in [-]. However, Deng Siu-kin did not have this ambition, so Kowloon Construction gradually came under the control of the Lei family and became the Lei family's industry.

However, although the real estate industry at that time was profitable, competition was also fierce, and British-owned companies were much stronger, so Lei Ruide slowly turned it into the construction industry.

Lei Kwok-wah also inherited his father's business and was deeply involved in the construction industry, making Kowloon Construction the second largest construction company in Hong Kong.

You must know that the concept of clan is very strong in the south, especially in eastern Guangdong.

Therefore, after Lei Ruide passed away, the Lei family was not divided, and the eldest son Lei Juehua was still at the helm.

Although the Lei family is not the top rich, it is still considered a well-established wealthy family in Xiangjiang. Wealthy families have never had much family ties when competing for property.

Speaking of which, Lei Juekun, the second son of the Lei family, is not an easy person. Historically, it was because Lei Juehua died of a heart disease that he took control of the Lei family's family business.

Moreover, Lei Juekkun is a famous entertainment tycoon in the history of Hong Kong Island. The Golden Princess Cinema Line he founded broke the policy of subsidizing Hong Kong Island theater chains and changed it to a share-sharing system, which allowed independent filmmakers to develop and promoted Hong Kong to a certain extent. Eight of the glories of the 90s film industry.

The newly established New Art City Pictures even fought against Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest. You must know that Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers were mortal enemies. When Golden Harvest was established in the early 70s, they fought until the 80s, but they joined forces because they wanted to resist New Art City. , which shows the strength of Xinyi City.

Therefore, Lei Juekun is definitely not a simple person. Although he is a little less charming than those tycoon-level people, he cannot be underestimated.However, historically it was Lei Juekun who took sole control of the Lei family after the death of Lei Juehua, but now history has taken a different path because of the change of one person, and the Longtan of Xiangjiang will become more lively.

This person is Lei Liquan, the grandson of Lei Juehua and his only son!
"After a year of hard work, I said that now that I am not busy, it is time to give the guys an early break and have a happy and lively New Year."

Lei Juehua paused and said: "I went to visit the Hu family yesterday and planned to let our Kowloon Construction Company undertake several projects. I called you to the company today because I wanted to ask you personally whether you are interested in taking over some properties of Kowloon Construction Industry. Otherwise, there is no chance. The money can be used to start new projects if it is sold through the market, but the current market price is too heartbreaking."

After all, Kowloon Jianye belongs to the Lei family, not Juehua personally.

"Dad, okay. You can discuss it with your second uncle. The price for eight theaters is 1200 million. I want it."

"I am planning to sell the industrial land at a loss. Although the theater is ancestral property, there is no problem in giving it to my own people. I will discuss it with your second uncle during the Chinese New Year."

"Dad, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you. I am planning to register a few companies that belong to me, and I will be independent from the family." Lei Liquan hoped to get his father's consent.

Lei Juehua knew that his son wanted his father's recognition and support, so he looked at his son's eager eyes.

"I agree. You made a lot of money before, now what are you planning to invest in when you register a company?"

Lei Liquan shook his head and said: "In Xiangjiang, the most profitable industry in the future will definitely be the real estate industry. I bought the theater at home to prepare for this aspect, but it is not time to enter on a large scale. Even if I enter, I will be prepared to vigorously Develop rent-collecting properties and hotel industries.” In fact, we also want to develop housing estates and for-sale commercial properties. After all, only by rotating things can we generate greater profits.

In the 70s, the real estate industry in Xiangjiang exploded with huge potential. Capital was flowing from all sides. Rich people from all over the world, such as those engaged in shipping, trading, and factory building, all invested in it. Those who did not invest basically had more than 90% of their living expenses. But the [-]s.

In the rebirth of Xiangjiang, it is impossible to give up this piece of fat. With the generous returns on investment such as Xiangjiang Real Estate, in the future, we will have the capital to develop in the actual industry and properly compete with competitors.

"That's okay. It's really not suitable for real estate development in the recent period. Now, like A-Zhen, when are you going to get married?"

"We are still young, haven't we had enough fun yet?"

"As long as you are mutually interested in this matter, you can't make 100% of the decision yet. I'll find an opportunity to make an appointment with Mr. Hu, and go with him to worship Fang Lisheng and ask Lisheng to make the decision."

"You are still young, but I am not young anymore. I want to have a grandson. You are the only son I have, Lei Juehua."

"Okay." Lei Liquan thought it would be better not to continue this question: "I'll ask A-Zhen for her opinion first."

The Lee family is not simple. It is a long-established family in Xiangjiang. Many people have selected the first generation of the four major families in Xiangjiang. The results may be different, but the Lee family is firmly ranked among them.

The founder of Lijia was Li Xisheng, but he died relatively early. He was shot three times and died at the age of 49.
