Chapter 1636: Great Promises in the British Market
"Of course, I also know that if Hong Kong's housing prices come down, more people may be injured, so we can only maintain it slowly and increase income for Hong Kong people. That is the right way." Xiao Qi said lightly, "I I feel that as mainlanders become more and more wealthy, free travel will become a big source of income for Hong Kong, and tourism, retail and other businesses will bring a lot of opportunities to Hong Kong!"
"Well, mainlanders are very generous, haha." Zheng Yoga said with a smile. In his Chow Tai Fook Gold Store, mainlanders are contributing more and more, earning a lot of money.
The tourism industry is a very large industrial system.
It not only directly drives the consumption of catering, hotels, shopping, and entertainment projects, but also indirectly drives import and export, environmental construction, taxation, employment, etc. It can be said that it is the most suitable for Hong Kong, a free port city.
Everyone knew before that free travel is very good, but they didn't expect Xiao Qi to value it so much.
Just when they were thinking, Xiao Qi slowly got to the point: "But there is one point that we must pay attention to from the very beginning! If it is not resolved, free travel will collapse, and Hong Kong will be completely destroyed. Become a place for Hong Kong people to play by themselves! A stagnant pool with absolutely no future!"
"What is it?" the Guo family boss asked.
"That's because of decades of separation, the contradiction between the cultural and living habits of the mainland and Hong Kong!" Xiao Qi said seriously, "I know that many Hong Kong people have an inexplicable superiority when facing mainlanders. Feeling of superiority! If this sense of superiority is reflected in the reception of mainland tourists, sooner or later there will be big disputes! And I believe that no one likes to travel to places that look down on themselves and spend money !
If Hong Kong does not have a down-to-earth mentality of being a service industry, and still sees itself as superior, then it is best not to do free travel. Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Maldives and other countries can do it! If you don't believe me, go and have a look. Their attitude is much better than that of Hong Kong! If things go on like this, those places will definitely attract more and more mainland Chinese to travel! It also dilutes Hong Kong's share! "
Hearing Xiao Qi unceremoniously revealing the source of the conflict, everyone's faces became even more ugly. Isn't this scolding the bald man in front of the monk?
To put it bluntly, many of them. When facing mainlanders, they all have a sense of superiority, but standing in front of them is the undisputed richest man in the world, and everyone's combined net worth is not as rich as Xiao Qi's, so they dare not make trouble.
But they are heroes after all, after feeling a little uncomfortable, they began to think about Xiao Qi's words.
Thinking of the things I see every day, I still have this vague tendency now, which is indeed very bad-you don’t pay attention to a good service attitude in the tourism industry. How to attract customers? Is it because of the influence your Hong Kong drama has brought to mainlanders? Once or twice is okay, who wants to spend money to buy gas for a few more times?
Xiao Qi drank tea, waited for them to think and whisper, but did not speak.
In the future, in 2013, the contradiction of free travel will explode on a large scale. Although this kind of thing is only caused by a small group of people, it will greatly hurt the feelings of the mainland and Hong Kong. This kind of thing. Xiao Qi didn't want it to happen a second time.
"In the future, my tvb will focus on promoting the concept of a family in mainland China and Hong Kong. If you can help, both the mainland and Hong Kong can benefit. That is also your contribution to Hong Kong." About ten minutes later, Xiao Qicai concluded like this.
"Don't worry, Cheung Kong will not sit idly by!" Li Chaoren nodded, "Our relevant media will also cooperate."
He and Xiao Qi are basically allies. Naturally, the first to respond.
Zheng Yoga and Xiao Qi also had business dealings, and upon hearing the words, they also praised them. With their leadership, the rest of the people, no matter whether they were willing or not, still agreed.
They control the direction of public opinion among the upper echelons of Hong Kong. Once they come out in favor of freedom of travel and restrict the service attitude of Hong Kong people, it will definitely be much better than in the previous life.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Qi knew with relief that this was a good start.
Since everyone gave face, then Xiao Qi has to give back to them.
"As for the investment issue that everyone mentioned, I think it is possible to develop towards continental Europe with perfect infrastructure and standardized systems." Xiao Qi said calmly: "The capital in the United States is too powerful and exclusive, even for businessmen in Hong Kong. The same is true. On the contrary, the United Kingdom, a country with deep ties to Hong Kong, is a very good place to invest. Their companies in the water, electricity, infrastructure industry, and real estate industry are just right for everyone to develop!"
"Why can't it be the mainland?" Uncle Li asked.
"Because the mainland has implemented a policy of capping houses before they can be sold, and in the next few years, Mr. Niu Ruzheng will actively promote the low-rent housing policies in Hong Kong and Singapore. The real estate industry in Huaguo is far from having such great potential. "Xiao Qi said lightly, "Besides, the subprime mortgage crisis has already begun to affect China. Do you think that the property market in mainland China can be more resistant to pressure than the UK? What will you do if it collapses?"
The hearts of those present were chilled.
If Niu Ruzheng really decides to do that, the real estate industry will be tied with two reins, unable to run even if he wants to.
Why is Hong Kong's real estate so developed? Isn't it the result of speculation? That is to say, start selling the house as soon as you get the land. After this bad habit was learned by mainland real estate developers, it really pushed up the tension in housing prices.
And the question of the ability to withstand pressure is indeed debatable. After all, how big the property market bubble in the Mainland is, I believe they all know it well.
"Believe me, if you wait until 2010 to develop in the UK, it will definitely be a vast world!" Xiao Qi drew a big cake for them, "Britain has a population of 60 million and an area of nearly 250,000 square kilometers. A place where heroes gallop! The British have been showing off their power in Hong Kong for so many years, and it’s time for us to pay our respects!”
"Why not now?" It was the turn of the head of the Huo family to ask this time.
"Go now? Are you rushing to help them survive the financial crisis?" Xiao Qi asked back with a smile.
Only then did the super rich come to their senses. The young man in front of him was not only the richest man in the world, but also a genius with a sharp vision!
Xiao Qi also talked about his interest, and talked eloquently: "The countries on the European continent, except for France and Germany, are all lazy people who live on the merits of their ancestors all day long. What a proud industry as support. Once a crisis breaks out, they will be the first to bear the brunt!
The reason why France is bad is that their taxes are too high! If you invest in France, I believe it will usher in a new round of tax crisis, which is very inappropriate for the French economy! Moreover, France has vigorously introduced Africans in recent years, which has caused their unsatisfactory security, so France cannot go!
Although Germany's infrastructure industry is good, the problem is that the Germans are much better at housing than Hong Kong. Housing prices in Germany have been developing steadily over the years, and it can be seen that the German government has really put its heart into these aspects! Even if you intend to participate in the basic industries of water and electricity in Germany, please remember not to participate in real estate, otherwise it will be bad luck! "
The people present are all old and cunning businessmen, but after all, they don't have the understanding of the future that the reincarnated Xiao Qi has.
Hearing Xiao Qi explain the situation of these countries clearly in a few words, their eyes were brightened, but they couldn't help but admire Xiao Qi's grasp of the international situation.
No wonder they have all heard about it. Niu Ruzheng told his colleagues that Xiao Qi's greatest strength is his grasp of the overall international situation, and he is completely a strategic-level talent!
"Besides, the European Union has begun to fight against the United States. The City of London will play an increasingly important role in the next few years. Although it is impossible to restore the glory of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it will become one of the centers of Europe. There is no doubt about it." Xiao Qi continued his comment, "Don't forget, London will host the 2012 Olympic Games. If you are interested, it will be a very good time to enter this area for development. .”
"Papa..."
The only old man of foreign origin among the top ten richest people in Hong Kong who had been silent all this time clapped his hands involuntarily.
Immediately, Li Chaoren and the others also applauded.
Everyone's eyes are full of admiration.
This time they finally saw what a real genius is, and they really admired Xiao Qi's keen eyesight.
When the eyes of the rich are diverted from Hong Kong and even the Asian continent, they will really find that Britain, a land that Hong Kong people are extremely familiar with, is indeed a very good new investment choice!
Xiao Qi remained calm on the surface, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
For their tossing energy, Xiao Qi is very familiar with it.
For example, in the previous life, the real estate in many places in the mainland was speculated to be high by the Wenzhou real estate speculators, but why didn't these super rich people from Hong Kong appear behind?
In 2005, Li Chaoren’s random piece of land in Rongcheng cost 2 billion yuan. How much was the housing price in Rongcheng at that time? Not to mention that when he sells real estate in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen in a big way, it will be worth billions of dollars if he sells it casually!
The same is true for other rich people. Relying on their experience in Hong Kong, they have made a lot of money in real estate, an industry with no technical content!
In this life, Xiao Qi certainly doesn't want them to make trouble again.
The real estate market in the mainland has finally been brought under control. You people, it’s better to speculate on all walks of life in the UK! (to be continued..)
