Hong Kong Island's wealthy era

Chapter 42 HK Electric Meeting
February 2th, just after the Lantern Festival.

Lei Liquan and Tian Yun have arrived at Hong Kong Electric's board of directors.

In the conference room, two-thirds of the people were British people, and everyone was looking at Lei Liquan.

Everyone thinks this new major shareholder is too young.

But everyone did not lose their grace. They all walked over to Lei Liquan and began to introduce themselves. Lei Liquan was also very polite and shook hands one by one. Whether it was pretentious or not, it was considered a formal acquaintance.

After some introductions, we sat on the conference table and formally held a board meeting.

Connor, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hong Kong Electric, began to speak. He first welcomed Lei Liquan to the board of directors and invited Lei Liquan to speak.

Lei Liquan was not polite and said with a smile: "In my opinion, HK Electric has stable and generous net profits every year, bringing generous dividends to shareholders. This is the main reason why I invested in HK Electric."

"However, I don't understand why Hong Kong Electric doesn't use these funds to invest? For example, real estate. Hong Kong Electric owns many high-quality land, such as the old power plant in North Point."

"So I suggest that we first set up a real estate company to develop the land owned by HK Electric. In this way, HK Electric can bring more profits to shareholders."

Lei Liquan glanced at all the board members sitting and continued.

"HK Electric's current power plant, Ap Lei Chau Power Plant, is too close to residential areas. With the development of Hong Kong's economy, this power plant will have to be relocated sooner or later."

"The above are the current suggestions for HK Electric. We are considering taking HK Electric as the main company. Everything is just from a business perspective!"

The shareholders started talking one after another. It was obvious that they agreed with Lei Liquan's words. Who didn't want to get more return on investment?

Lei Liquan waited for a while and then said to Connor: "I am not very familiar with Hong Kong Electric's own business - power generation and transmission. I will respect the current corporate culture and management. I just want to bring more benefits to Hong Kong Electric." New development proposals to create more value for shareholders.”

Although Lei Liquan only participated in the management of HK Electric as a director, everyone knows that HK Electric's surname is Lei.

But they didn't know that Lei Liquan had made a secret agreement with Connor, and Connor would definitely support Lei Liquan's decision.

Lei Liquan proposed on the board of directors to form a real estate company, dismantle the North Point Power Plant, and build a large housing estate integrating residences, hotels, and shopping malls to create more profits for Hong Kong Electric.

Lei Liquan's proposal was naturally welcomed by all shareholders on the board of directors and was unanimously approved.

Affected by this good news, HK Electric's market value also began to continue to rise.

……

The next day, Thunder Holdings.

Lei Liquan held the company's daily work meeting.Attending the meeting were Human Resources Director Liu Deming, Financial Director Wu Yunfei, Thunder Development Chief Engineer Liu Shuitian, Thunder Investment Director Xu Wen, Legal Advisor Zhang Dazhuang, etc.

Looking at the people sitting there, Lei Liquan couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

At the meeting, the financial director Wu Yunfei's report was heard, and 2.8 million funds were deposited in the account.This capital includes the orange factory’s initial profit of 1.5 million and the profit from subsequent orders.

Lei Liquan couldn't help but sigh: In this era, game console products still make money.

And listened to Liu Shuitian's talk about the reconstruction work of the Chinese Bank.

Liu Shuitianhui reported: "The Chinese People's Bank of China was rebuilt into a comprehensive building with a design area of ​​24 square feet and a height of 22 floors. The exterior walls are made of stainless steel and glass that changes in depth with the weather. The indoor temperature, humidity, lighting, and Fire protection facilities, etc., are all controlled by computers. The interior decoration is luxurious and elegant, integrating national style and modern atmosphere. The entire Chinese Bank reconstruction plan costs 2 million Hong Kong dollars. The time plan is two years and will be delivered by the end of next year." "The plan is feasible and will definitely be done. If you’re not afraid of spending money, it will be the company’s headquarters building in the future after all.”

Lei Liquan took a sip of water and continued to instruct: "We must pay attention to safety work and quality work. As for the funds, 1 million will be allocated in advance to start, and subsequent expenses will be allocated according to the construction period."

"Okay, Lei Sheng."

"Register a new company immediately - Thunder Infrastructure Company, and put Hong Kong Electric and China Gas in it."

Lei Liquan glanced at his assistant Tian Yun and said, "Tian Sheng, get ready. I'm going to let you take charge."

"Leisheng, are you going to use the dividends from these two companies to invest in infrastructure construction?" Tian Yun asked.

"You first register the company and establish the organizational structure. I will arrange the follow-up work."

Lei Liquan's plan is to exchange equity with Hong Kong Electric, and exchange the China Gas held by Hong Kong Electric to Lei Liquan Infrastructure Company, and Hong Kong Electric will hold some shares of the infrastructure company.

In the future, it will become Thunder Holding Company to control Thunder Infrastructure Company, and Thunder Infrastructure to hold Hong Kong Electric and China Gas shares (it will definitely increase its shareholding in the future).

After the meeting, Lei Liquan stayed with Xu Wen to discuss some investment plans.For example, the plan to exchange shares between Thunder Infrastructure and Hong Kong Electric.Plans to increase shareholdings in Wharf, Qingzhou Yingni and China Gas through the open market were also discussed.

Suddenly, Lei Liquan asked Xu Wen:

"Also, I heard that the Hilton Hotel at 2 Queen's Road in Central is up for sale. Please arrange for someone to inquire about it."

"Okay, Lei Sheng. I'll make arrangements right away."

When Lei Liquan was reading online articles in his previous life, he remembered that the Xiangjiang Hilton Hotel was sold to Li Chaoren due to losses in the past two years.

Lei Liquan suddenly remembered that in later generations, Li Chaoren's Cheung Kong Center headquarters was located at 2 Queen's Road, Central.

But after Lei Liquan traveled across time, he had never seen Cheung Kong Center. This building must not have been developed yet. Currently, Li Chaoren's headquarters is in North Point, and he has not hoarded any land or office buildings in Central.

So what's going on?
Could it be that Cheung Kong Center was rebuilt after Li Chaoren demolished the Hilton Hotel?

If that's the case, then the Hilton must be taken down.

In fact, Li Chaoren's feat of acquiring foreign capital started with the Hilton Hotel.

In his previous life, Li Chaoren purchased Yonggao Company, the parent company of Hilton Xiangjiang Hotel, in February 1977. In the 90s, he demolished the hotel and merged two surrounding pieces of land to build the 62-story Cheung Kong Center Building. .

Lei Liquan just wants to find a hotel brand for himself. He will start a family soon and will inherit and build his own family.How can a family not have a five-star hotel in Xiangjiang?

As far as he knows, the Hilton Group has acquired many independent hotels around the world and has named many hotels in various places.

In the past few days, Lei Liquan went to the Hailutong Building and listened to the work reports of the newspaper and film companies. Everything was progressing according to arrangements. Under the management of Wu Siyuan and Zhang Jiancheng respectively, he was very relieved.

The number of copies of Tiantian Daily and Evening News has reached 11 and 6 respectively.Tiantian Weekly has nearly 5 copies.After the film company abolished the guarantee system, people came to discuss cooperation basically every day, and it was a prosperous scene.
