Wall Street Legend

  Chapter 336 Hudson Yards Project

   During the next period of time, nothing happened.

  While coordinating the work, Ye Dongqing traveled around the San Francisco Bay Area, and even went to the Pebble Beach Golf Course in central California to accompany several celebrities in Silicon Valley on vacation.

He ran on both sides of New York and Silicon Valley. After the time entered August, he helped Zhao Liuli sign up for a boy scout activity, and accompanied his classmates to participate in a half-month field life training near Camp David. American parents like this kind of activity. I feel that it can enhance children's sense of independence.

After showing his fist for a while, no one has been forcing him to share the cake recently, and the warning to the KKR group has been spread in the circle for a long time, so that no one does that kind of thankless thing anymore , if Ye Dongqing was successfully pushed to a desperate situation, but he was kicked out of the financing list in the end, wouldn't that mean making wedding dresses for others?

   In addition, Facebook’s overseas expansion has encountered some resistance. The European Union is investigating its information security. People feel that the valuation of 15 billion US dollars does not have much profit prospects.

Affected by the crisis in the past few years, investors are more cautious. It is true that Facebook is quite profitable, but in their minds it is almost on par with Google. After this valuation, in their minds, it is no longer worth going. Using dirty tricks, the enthusiasm drops a lot.

After more than a year of growth, the Nasdaq market has returned to calm recently. The only small climax was the listing of Google. The increase was not high that year, reaching more than 26 billion US dollars. It almost fell below the issue price, and Danshui Investment Group got 4% of the shares in the IPO stage because there was no better investment target.

Coffee stocks, medical stocks, plus several Internet companies, recently a large part of the cash in the hands of Danshui Investment Group has been invested, and a new round of investment has been made in Facebook and Whatsapp, giving them money to advertise and expand In addition, they injected billions of dollars into the Huaxia branch to look for potential stocks worth investing in.

At this moment in the second half of 2004, in the eyes of American investors, Huaxia was just a large-scale factory that could make itself profitable. Under the influence of such a big environment, Washington was also paralyzed, naively Thinking that the impact of foreign capital could lead to changes in the social form of that country, for the time being, only Ye Dongqing knew that it was impossible.

  It is difficult to find high-return targets in the United States, so he once again set his sights on China, mainly focusing on the Internet industry.

According to Ye Dongqing, the big head is in the United States, the small head is in China, and there are some arrangements in Europe. Basically, my life is stable. I mainly spent September in New York. Later, I was bored at home and went to South America. After shopping around in Brazil and Argentina, he waited until mid-October when he accidentally learned that a piece of land in the financial district on the west side of Manhattan was for sale at a price of 1.29 billion U.S. dollars, which immediately aroused his interest.

   October 16th.

He took a helicopter to inspect the sky above the land to be sold. The New York State is trying to compete with London for the 2012 Summer Olympics and plans to build a large stadium here. However, due to the opposition of New York citizens, the super-rich mayor seems to have wavered recently. It means that since he called him and said that he can sell it, it almost means that the city hall has decided to withdraw from the Olympic bid.

According to the development trajectory of the previous life, London did get the right to host the 2012 Summer Olympics as it wished. Now it seems that the plan has been changed. Mayor Bloomberg plans to use this land to build a "city of the future". The largest urban renewal development project in New York City since the Center, integrating entertainment, leisure and commerce.

A piece of land that is half the size of Manhattan Park, of course, cannot be sold to Ye Dongqing, with a total area of ​​10.5 hectares. According to the plan, a large shopping plaza, a cultural center, and six skyscrapers will be built. The new high-rise planning in the core area of ​​London requires that the building be advanced and cool enough to re-establish New York's status as the global financial core area.

According to the super-rich mayor, Manhattan has become old. London has redeveloped more than 40% of its stock properties since 1985, while New York only has a mere 7%. It is the first choice for the headquarters of multinational corporations, so there is this Far West reconstruction plan. As the last piece of land available for large-scale development in midtown Manhattan, Hudson Square is positioned very high, close to Hudson on the west side of Manhattan There are several piers beside the river.

As a "future person", Ye Dongqing knows that this commercial complex has a high probability of being able to develop, and it is very beautiful. They are all new buildings and will not be as crowded as in other places. The heartbeat is certain, and I can already imagine my own building What it will look like when it is built, you can look down on the entire island of Manhattan, and even see Brooklyn and Queens.

   It has only been a few months, and his mind is active again. The project design drawings have been completed, and construction can start at any time. As for the funds, he doesn't need to worry too much, he can take out a loan first.

I looked at it several times in the air, and the more I looked at it, the more I felt it was very good, and it was the land of the New York City Hall, which meant that the tax could be reduced, or the transaction price could be lowered, and the terms of installment payment might even be negotiated, which was better than the last negotiation. The field is much better, big and empty.

  He told the pilot through the microphone at this moment: "Okay, fly to the next city, I'm going to the city hall to talk to the mayor in person."

  The driver gestured an OK gesture, arrived at the destination a few minutes later, and began to land in the park.

  Go shopping in the southern hemisphere.

  Ye Dongqing has been tanned and shaves often, and now she can see some stubble, which has become rough.

Just this year, his net worth first exceeded 10 billion U.S. dollars, and now it has exceeded 20 billion U.S. dollars. He has successively invested in more than 30 companies, and he directly manages the old ones. The others are just to provide opinions and supervise their daily life operate.

It is indeed on the right track. He only needs to tell Mr. McCord which company he likes, and after negotiating the price, he will decide whether to buy or not. In this way, the cash on the fresh water investment book is almost used up, leaving only Keep the company running, otherwise the cash will be lying in the account, and investors will have to pay interest, which is not worthwhile.

As early as the beginning of the year, he felt that this year was a relatively important year. At that time, he had already planned to make a big investment. This move made the whole Wall Street dumbfounded. They didn't believe that Ye Dongqing would be able to cross the border. In this industry, with so many potential stocks found at the same time, many people are waiting to see the joke...
