Chapter 2714: Hong Kong Disneyland (Part 1)
Once upon a time, Hong Kong Disneyland was a symbol of Hong Kong and the pride of the entire Chinese community.
One of Disney's five theme parks is in Hong Kong. When people from all over the world come to Hong Kong, they may not necessarily go to Ocean Park, but most of them will go to Disneyland.
So even though Disneyland has not made money for the Hong Kong government, the investor, for so many years, or even lost money year after year, that has not changed the determination of the Hong Kong government to persist in operation.
Of course, if counted according to the history of the previous life, their hard days are running out. By the end of 2013, Disneyland will usher in the first annual profit since its opening, and then enter a benign state of making money. cycle.
It has to be said that Oriental Disney is also responsible for this. If it weren't for the repeated collapse of negotiations between Dongfang City and Disney, Hong Kong Disney's good life would not be so easy.
An Eastern Disney that is thousands of miles away can pose a threat to Hong Kong Disneyland, let alone this life. It is said that a Disneyland will be built in Guangdong Province or Nanwan. It is like fighting Hong Kong Disneyland. .
The biggest flaw of Hong Kong Disneyland is that its area is only 126 hectares, which is 1890 mu. This kind of pocket version of Disneyland makes it impossible for everyone to have fun. Even Hong Kong locals have to go to Japan Disneyland to play. Not to mention other conditional rich people.
Usually, those who come to Hong Kong Disneyland are only middle-class people who don’t spend much, or young people who are simply frugal. This is the most important reason why Hong Kong Disneyland has not made money over the years.
Another reason is that the local population in Hong Kong is too small, and it is very troublesome for mainlanders to come to Hong Kong. Compared with the mainland, the surrounding commercial facilities are very expensive, so they cannot support too much operating income of Hong Kong Disneyland.
If Disney is located in the densely populated Guangdong Province and Nanwan, it will be much more convenient for mainland tourists, and at least 50% of mainland Disney tourists will go to Hong Kong.
This is for Hong Kong Disneyland. But a devastating blow!
It doesn't matter to Xiao Qi, if Hong Kong Disneyland doesn't make money, then it will be closed. Anyway, this market is not important to Xiao Qi.
But the problem is that Hong Kong people care. They regard Disneyland as a symbol of Hong Kong. If you, Xiao Qi, opened Disneyland in the Mainland but demolished Hong Kong, what do you mean?
However, when they went to find Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi didn't answer directly at all. Anyway, it is "under consideration", "I don't know the specific situation", "I will build on the best, and I will not consider other things"... The words inside and outside the words just don't mean the same thing as Hong Kong, and I don't care about Hong Kong. What people want from him.
I have given you face twice, and you still come to pester me, do you really think you have too much face?
Hong Kong people are naturally smart. After seeing Xiao Qi's indifferent attitude, they immediately stopped talking, so as not to make Xiao Qi unhappy, and instead deliberately put Hong Kong together.
So Hong Kong made another big move. They sent people from the government to the capital to lobby, trying to get the capital to stop Xiao Qi's idea of fighting against him.
However, the capital does not have to rely on Hong Kong for everything, and it is not only this one son. There are so many provinces and cities in the country, even if they cannot be equal, the difference between the megacities should not be too big anyway. ?
If they agreed to Hong Kong, ordered Xiao Qi not to open a Disneyland in Nanwan, Guangdong Province, and ordered Nanwan, Guangdong Province not to compete for the landing of Disneyland, what would others think of the capital?
Nanwan and Guangdong are not small cities. There are too many officialdom heroes here, and they are too important to the status of Huaguo. If Hong Kong's historical reasons are not included, a hundred Hong Kongs are not as important as a Guangdong Province and Nanwan.
Therefore, the capital side just said. The specific business behavior depends on the specific implementation. On the one hand, everyone competes on an equal footing. On the other hand, Xiao Qi has not said that it must be opened in Nanwan, Guangdong Province. How can we talk about it?
Hong Kong, which has hit a soft nail, has no choice but to turn to various rich people for help.
The rich in Hong Kong are very powerful. In addition to the economic aspect, it also affects all aspects of the government, but the government often wants to regain power and re-override the businessmen, so the two are not only a unified whole, but also have some conflicting interests.
But there is one thing, they all hope that Hong Kong will get better and better, instead of gradually declining after entering the new century, and it will never be the same for decades.
Therefore, their opinions on the matter of Disney are unified.
But the problem is that these old and cunning businessmen understand that Xiao Qi doesn't really have a good impression of Hong Kong. At the beginning, they wanted to get involved in Fairy Company so much, but Xiao Qi refused without even thinking about it, including a series of fairy companies later. The expansion of the company, the sale of shares in Dream Pad, Dream Stars, and APP STORE, Xiao Qi has never considered the rich and powerful in Hong Kong, making it clear that he does not like Hong Kong.
Yan Chenglong was able to do business with Xiao Qi, all because he was thick-skinned, sticking it up abruptly, and in addition to sending out such a wonderful move by Li Shaozhi, he gained some benefits.
The reason why Li Xiaochao was able to do business with Xiao Qi was also because Li Chaoren put down his face and helped Xiao Qi's other woman, Feng Kexin, to collect the shares of TVB TVB, and sold the shares of Watsons and Hong Kong Metro to Xiao Qi's women. It was the foundation for Li Xiaochao to take off.
Of course, they thought it was worthless at the beginning, but now it seems that it is worth thousands of dollars.
In just over a year, the net worth of the two continued to skyrocket.
When ranking Hong Kong's rich list last year, Yan Chenglong's family property was 9.6 billion US dollars, ranking ninth in Hong Kong's richest people, Li Xiaochao's 10.6 billion US dollars, ranking eighth in Hong Kong.
Such a result has frightened a group of wealthy people who have worked hard all their lives. They did not expect to be suppliers and foundries of smart electronics, so much money! !
This year, as they produce products for the fairy company and their output continues to increase, the ranking of the two will rise again. It is conservatively estimated that they can increase their family property by 30%, which is really enviable!
But it's just these two people. Although there will be rich people who want to copy the success miracle of Yan Chenglong and Li Xiaochao, and want to become the third lucky person by sending beautiful stars to Xiao Qi, but until now there is no one. success.
It's not that they don't work hard, for example, Caixia Fairy, the most beautiful Hong Kong sister, TVB Xiaohuadan, the pop singer, the still charming Thirteenth Aunt... There should be no one who is more beautiful than Li Shaozhi, but there are several people who are more beautiful than Feng Kexin , and are even more famous than her.
But Xiao Qi never had the intention of chasing sex, he just met a woman worthy of love, then he would accept it, and after the examples of Li Zhenxi and Li Shaozhi, he was already very wary of this pattern.
If it wasn't for Li Jianxi's notoriously tough character, he was afraid that if he rejected Han Jiaer, it would cause great harm to Han Jiaer, Xiao Qi didn't even have the intention of acting with Han Jiaer.
So even among the beauties in Hong Kong, Xiao Qi liked many of them when he was a child, but he was never tempted. Just leave.
Most of the high-end beauty stars now know the relationship between Xiao Qi, Feng Kexin, and Li Shaozhi. It is impossible to say that there is no envy, jealousy, and hatred. They want to copy the successful young appearance of the two "old women" There are not no beautiful celebrities, so many female celebrities are half-pushed and half-hearted to strike up a conversation with Xiao Qi, but Xiao Qi's attitude is gentle and tactful, which can only make them disappointed.
The rich are unable to send beautiful women, and the power is not as powerful as Xiao Qi, so they can only sigh and regret that they have no chance to catch Xiao Qi's ride and take another step forward on the road of super rich.
Liu Datou and Xiao Qi have a cooperation. Although they have heard about going to the UK to do business, they are not very interested in this kind of real estate business in the UK. They feel that they are not familiar with the place and the business will be difficult. It's better to seize those genuine direct line industries under Xiao Qi's men.
Liu Datou is a very old, treacherous and cunning person. Now that he has gradually started to harvest in the UK, he didn't say anything about the truth to Hong Kong. He just said that he was waiting for an opportunity to open up a new market.
But if it weren’t for the two crises in Hong Kong’s economy, they would not have had the opportunity to obtain shares in Meitu Sharing and Fairy Guardian.
Therefore, looking left and right, most people think that they do not have the influence to persuade Xiao Qi, and the last eyes can only fall on Li Chaoren.
Li Chaoren could only smile wryly at this. The relationship between him and Xiao Qi is actually far from the tacit cooperation that the outside world seems to have. In fact, the smartest businessman in Hong Kong has long been aware of Xiao Qi's indifference to him.
Yes, bland.
Although Xiao Qi has a lot of business contacts with Li Chaoren, but in terms of personal friendship, he is not as good as his second son and Yan Chenglong.
Li Chaoren doesn't know the reason, and he won't ask. All he needs is to let the outside world think that he and Xiao Qi are good friends. As for whether Xiao Qi really values him, the old richest man in Asia doesn't care. This level, if it is not for the future of the children and grandchildren, they will not have a relationship with Xiao Qi.
But no matter what, since the business colleagues and the government put their hopes on Li Chaoren's side, Li Chaoren could only discuss the conditions with them, and then went to Feng Kexin's villa in person by car. The visit came from Li Shaozhi's villa yesterday. of the richest man in the world.
