Chapter 1432 Buying the Peninsula Hotel? !

Yin Jun had a far-reaching plan to recruit Wei Li.

Long before Yin Jun went to the United States, he saw Wei Li's first acquisition.

At that time, an idea flashed through his mind, asking Weili to take care of the affairs of Wankang Company and even Qilin Mining Company.

It's not that Shen Ben is not capable, but now that Shen Ben has been successfully elected as a member of the Western Australian State Council, he will definitely spend more energy on it in the future, and then he will also fight for the interests of the Chinese people in Western Australia. More importantly, It is to protect Qilin Mining.

Shen Ben is not a superman. Among such heavy government affairs and alliances, his energy will definitely be scattered on business.

Therefore, it is necessary to choose a successor for him.

Yin Jun was not afraid of Shen Ben's overthinking, because Shen Ben proposed this himself.

Of course, Shen Ben also said that if there is no suitable candidate, he will hold this position concurrently within three to five years, and then he will no longer run for election and work hard to do the work of Qilin Group.

It happened that at that time, Wei Li, an Australian, came into Yin Jun's sight.

Weili has great company management skills.

Although he also has great shortcomings, such as being bossy, arrogant, greedy for power, etc., it is indeed difficult to find such talents who can take care of a company and bring it back to life.

Besides, Wei Li also had one of his biggest advantages, which made Yin Jun inclined to choose him.

That is Weili is Australian.

He has a natural sense of identity in Australia. As the president of Qilin Mining, he will gain the greatest recognition from Australians.

Of course, you said that Weili would choose to be a member of parliament and Shen Ben would come back and be the president of Qilin Mining, would that work?

It definitely works!

It's just that after Wei Li becomes a member of Parliament, when his wings grow hard, it may be a little difficult to control.

As a senior member of parliament, he has too many resources to use and exchange them for what he wants.

At that time, Weili's dependence on Qilin Group will be very small, and it may in turn become a destabilizing factor.

Shen Ben is different.

Not to mention that the lives of his family were saved by Yin Jun, just because he is a Chinese, it is destined that he cannot mix with those Australians. What he needs most is the support of the Chinese, that is, Yin Jun's support.

On the other hand, after Wei Li became the president of Qilin Mining, he would be fed by Yin Jun.

Most of the employees below are Chinese, and they listen to Yin Jun even more than he does.

Under such circumstances, how could Wei Li cause trouble?

Therefore, the status of Shen Ben and Wei Li cannot be reversed at all, otherwise it will hinder Yin Jun's plan.

Judging from today's contact, Wei Li is obviously very interested in Yin Jun's recruitment.

That's right.

After all, Wei Li was a senior executive at Hutchison Whampoa. How could he be stuck in a brokerage company like Asia Securities all his life?

He still has a lot of ambitions, especially he wants to prove to everyone that his resignation from the position of Hutchison Whampoa's top class was not his fault at all, but was caused by Shen Bi's mediocrity and tyranny!

If he can make a career in the Kirin Group, or even become a high-ranking member of the subjective side, then Wei Li can return to Xiangjiang in glory and show his achievements to everyone.

Wei Li is not old, only 51 years old.

In his previous life, he retired and returned to Australia when he was less than 60 years old. In addition to the reason that Shen Bi hated him and made everything in Xiangjiang difficult for him, there were other factors related to political judgment that I won't mention here.

But no matter how you put it, Wei Li's return to Australia to work would be of great benefit to both him and Yin Jun, and he couldn't help but be tempted.

…

After coming out of the Peninsula Hotel, Yin Jun felt curious as he watched He Shengtian frowning next to him.

"Brother Tian, ​​what's wrong with you?" the young man asked.

"I'm thinking, the food in this Peninsula Hotel is delicious and the environment is really nice, but if you come here so often, it's really too much for your wallet!" He Shengtian sighed, "An ordinary afternoon tea room costs more than 300, for the four of us. Sitting down is equivalent to someone else’s month’s salary! And if you want to have enough food and drink there, it will cost you at least three to four thousand, which is too expensive!”

As Yin Jun's personal bodyguards, He Shengtian and the others did not take it lightly even though Yin Jun was in the Peninsula Hotel just now. They were all sitting at a table next to Yin Jun.

When you enter the Peninsula Hotel's cafe, you must spend money, otherwise others will definitely not want you in.

And the Peninsula Hotel’s cafe is not something you can enter if you have money.

Unless the guests who live here can enter the coffee shop as soon as possible at any time, people who come to drink afternoon tea from outside have to queue up regardless of their status.

Stand in line at the door of the cafe.

If there are too many people, you have to queue outside.

This is a bit embarrassing.

If you're an ordinary white-collar worker, it's fine, but if you're a businessman or the boss of a company, it's simply embarrassing and embarrassing.

Therefore, some rich people seized the loophole.

Didn’t you say that guests staying here can come in for afternoon tea at any time?

Well.

I rent a room at your Peninsula Hotel for a long time, so I am eligible to come at any time, right?

The first person to do this was Shao Yifu, Shao Liuye.

Then many rich people did this.

Yin Jun is naturally the same.

The Kirin Group has rented a total of three rooms at the Peninsula Hotel. Usually, when important people from the group come over, or when there are important guests to entertain, the quota will be used.

As for these people changing often, it is not specific to which person uses this quota. The Peninsula Hotel also turns a blind eye. If it is too stubborn and offends these super rich people, it is not a good thing.

It is precisely because of the quota of three rooms that He Shengtian and others can follow Yin Jun in.

Therefore, if they were serious about calculation, they would have to include the room charges for three rooms, which totaled thousands, for today's afternoon tea.

It's even more expensive than what He Shengtian said.

Yin Jun doesn't like waste, but in order to discuss matters and business, you can't go to a tea restaurant, right?

The business atmosphere is directly related to a company's image.

Similarly, Yin Jun's appointment with Wei Li to talk about things means that he attaches great importance to Wei Li.

The Peninsula Hotel Cafe is the best choice.

However, when He Shengtian mentioned this, Yin Jun nodded, "It is indeed a bit expensive."

After a pause, he said again, "Brother Tian, ​​you said I will buy the Peninsula Hotel in two years, and then we can eat and drink here without spending any money, okay?"

He Shengtian: "..."

The bodyguards next to him also had Mumbi expressions on their faces.

They thought, Mr. Jun, your thinking is too diffuse.

We just mentioned here that the afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel is expensive, so you have to buy it for free food and drink?

They all thought Yin Jun was joking.

Only Yin Jun himself knew that he was not joking.

A comprehensive group needs a hotel chain.

This hotel chain does not necessarily have to be large in scale, and it does not have to be like the Holiday Inn Group, Starwood Group, or Hilton Group with hotels all over the world, but it must be exquisite and elegant.

For example, the Peninsula Hotel behind them now.

There are not many Peninsula hotels in 2020, and there are less than ten in the world.

But every time a Peninsula hotel opens, it will become a hot spot in the region.

In particular, Xiangjiang, the headquarters of the Peninsula Hotel, is known as one of the top ten hotels in the world.

They are the only one in Xiangjiang, and even the Mandarin Oriental Hotel has not been rated.

When a hotel has moved from Shanghai to Xiangjiang in 100 years, it has only used silver spoons and tableware from one workshop, and only carpets from one workshop... It has never changed after so many years of operation. This requires A very fine tradition and management style.

Obviously, The Peninsula Hotel is a perfect example of this.

So they are very successful. No matter where they open a branch, they always have the same customers.

In this world, there is no doubt that many people pursue cost-effective travel, but there are also many wealthy people who pursue a feeling of comfort.

It cannot be said that we do not understand the world of rich people, but at least they are very particular about the quality of life.

The Peninsula Hotel is the favorite of a group of such wealthy people and elites.

It is also hotels like the Peninsula Hotel that have told people in the hotel industry that it is not easy to make money by having a larger hotel or more branches.

As long as you do well, even if you only have one or two stores, you can make a lot of money.

Yin Jun likes the Peninsula Hotel very much. In his previous life, he came to Xiangjiang for a trip and wanted to stay here for one night. However, the room rate of about 2,000 per night was not what his salary could afford, so he could only stay at the fountain in front of the Peninsula Hotel. Just take a picture as a souvenir.

The young man has always had such an idea in his mind, but it has not been completely settled yet.

Or maybe I didn't find the right time.

The reason why he talked about buying the Peninsula Hotel today was because Yin Jun met Wei Li and remembered what Wei Li would do in the future.

During another stock market crash a few years ago, Liu Zhaoxiong, also known as the celebrity killer Liu Datou, once maliciously targeted the stocks of the Shanghai Hotel Group.

The Shanghai Hotel Group is the parent company of Peninsula Hotels and one of the properties of the Kadoorie family.

Together with Liu Zhaoxiong, there was another group of people who attacked the Shanghai Hotel, and that was the external funds led by Wei Li.

In order to settle the matter, Kadoorie finally paid a lot of money to settle the situation between the two of them.

Yin Jun will not use such despicable means to acquire.

This involves Yin Jun's entire reputation and character, and the personal image he spent so much time building must not collapse because of the acquisition of a hotel.

Yin Jun's goal is to be like Li Chaoren, who can borrow money in his own name!

But since Wei Li can snipe at the Shanghai Hotel Group's stock, why can't Yin Jun directly demand a tough acquisition of the Shanghai Hotel Group when they are in trouble?

Thanks to the rules of the Hong Kong stock market, the Kadoorie family's shareholding in the Shanghai Hotel Group does not exceed 35%. Even if they still have some private shares, it will not exceed 45% at most.

It's not that they don't have the money to increase their holdings to 50%, it's because they don't have the need.

The Kadoorie family has always been among the top ten in Hong Kong. They have a lot of wealth at their disposal. If they encounter a hostile takeover, they can respond calmly without panic.

But these are just ordinary acquirers targeted.

If a super rich man like Yin Jun is eyeing the Shanghai Hotel Group, it will not be that simple.

In fact, Yin Jun already had a plan in mind.

If you are lucky, maybe you can get what you want during this round of stock market crash?

No rush, no rush.

There are still almost two years to go.

It’s not too late to start planning now!

Looking back at the quaint buildings of the Peninsula Hotel, Yin Jun smiled slightly.

By the time I buy it, the plan for the new high-rise building behind them should have started in advance!
