Chapter 1467 License Plate No. 3 (Additional Update for the Master of the Seal of Kiss Dapeng Hall!)

Xiangjiang is very narrow, not even the size of a district in a first-tier mainland city 30 years from now, but there are a lot of cars here.

According to data from the Transport Department, the number of private vehicles in Hong Kong this year is around 200,000.

Although Xiangjiang now has a population of more than 6 million, the number of vehicles per 100 people is 3.3, which seems very small.

But if you consider that it is only the 1980s, and the number of private cars in Hong Kong in 2002 was still 340,000, you will think that this number is very good.

Of course, the absolute number of private cars in Xiangjiang is still relatively small.

The reason why there are not many private cars in Xiangjiang is naturally high taxes, parking and car usage fees.

For another license fee, they will pay two to three thousand in license fees every year, which is also a considerable expense.

Because there were not many cars, Xiangjiang before 2006 was usually a combination of two English letters and four numbers. Of course, there is also an English letter plus a number.

Don’t think that this fee is expensive.

The most expensive one is in Singapore. People worked hard to buy a license plate, but it will be scrapped after ten years. You have to buy it again. The price is more than 40,000!

Of course, license plates will also be auctioned here in Xiangjiang.

However, the license plate auction mentioned here has little to do with Volkswagen.

Because these license plates can easily cost tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions or tens of millions. How can ordinary people afford them?

And if you buy such an expensive license plate, it is of no use to your life.

To put it bluntly, even if your life is not worthy of this license plate, then why did you buy it?

But the public is very interested in the license plate auction itself, because it can be seen that the rich spend huge sums of money just to buy that plate.

The license plate in Xiangjiang is actually very simple. After you buy the car, you just put it together with the numbers and letters you want and apply to the Transport Department. If the number is not valuable, it will usually be issued to you.

If it has auspicious numbers like 6, 8, 123, or 789, you will have to pay some money. The more auspicious numbers you have, the more you will naturally pay.

As for numbers with more than three digits, especially numbers like 888 and 666, you definitely have to go to the Transport Department's license plate auction every year to get them.

In the future, the prices of those super popular accounts in Xiangjiang that we will see on TV are not as exaggerated as everyone thinks.

For example, the most expensive license plate numbers without prefixes, especially those with single prefixes.

That is, there are no English letters on those license plates, only a one-digit license plate number.

In 1977, Mr. Yung Yung-tao bought the No. 10 license plate for a price of HK$206,000.

The next year, the year Yin Jun came to Xiangjiang, Uncle Shao spent 330,000 to buy his favorite license plate No. 6. This tycoon who had been dealing with 6 all his life finally got his wish.

In the same year, the son of the Zhao family among the four major shipping kings celebrated his 70th birthday and invited hundreds of his ex-girlfriends to a birthday party. Zhao Shizeng, known as the Chamberlain of the East, bought the No. 4 license plate for 147,000.

Don't think that Mr. Zhao is acting randomly.

The Zhao family started out as a shipping company. In the dialect of their hometown, the pronunciation of 4 is "water", which fits the family business perfectly, so the number 4 is quite useful and auspicious to them.

Apart from them, the most expensive license plate in Xiangjiang is naturally No. 18, which was bought by electronics king Zhang Chenguang in 2008 for 16.5 million.

Among the top ten, only Yang Shoucheng in 1994 spent 13 million to take the number 9, and the rest did not reach 10 million.

As for No. 1, well, that is the special car of the Commissioner of Police, so the Commissioner of Police in Hong Kong is also called Brother No. 1.

These prices are really not expensive.

After 2015, China's real estate has created a large number of super-rich people, so in China's big cities, especially those in eastern Guangdong and Jiangnan, sky-high price license plates frequently appear.

Number plates worth tens of millions are everywhere.

The wealthy people in Xiangjiang are all very low-key compared to them.

In his previous life, Yin Jun had read a report about Xiangjiang's super beautiful accounts. It recorded in detail which numbers were bought by whom.

There is one point in it that Yin Jun feels is fallacious.

That is what it said that in 1993, real estate businessman Zheng Gongshi bought the No. 3 license plate at a charity auction for only 1.03 million.

A normal person would know that this is impossible.

1993!

Xiangjiang's economy, especially the real estate economy, is developing at a rapid pace and experiencing a high degree of bubbles.

In such an environment, the No. 3 license plate only sold for 1.03 million?

Aren't you kidding me?

You know, it was also mentioned in this report that Liu Datou, also known as Liu Zhaoxiong, spent 2.5 million to get the No. 5 license plate.

At the same auction, Wang Minwei spent 9.5 million to buy No. 2.

The number 3 has to be much better than 5, right?

How is it possible that it only sold for 1.03 million?

Therefore, Yin Jun prefers the statements in other articles.

This Zheng Gongshi was not photographed in 1993 with the No. 3 license plate, but in 1983.

In this way, the price index is more appropriate.

Therefore, when Yin Jun saw in "Kilin Daily" that the No. 3 license plate would be auctioned in a charity auction recently, he smiled and confirmed that his deduction was indeed correct.

Having been in Xiangjiang for so long, Yin Jun didn't pay much attention to license plates, but now that he had a little free time, the young man was ready to join in the fun.

After all, there are only so many good license plates. Being able to hold them in your hand is not only a status symbol, but also represents a kind of power.

I dare not say that a batch of good license plates will keep Kirin Group firmly ranked first in Hong Kong, but it will definitely increase the impression of Kirin Group.

However, after asking his secretary to call and tell the organizer that Yin Jun would bring his female companion to participate in this charity auction, Yin Jun was included in the publicity news of the charity evening that day.

"Mr. Yin Jun, a super rich man and talented boy, is determined to come to this charity auction to contribute love to blind children!"

Such propaganda words made it difficult for Yin Jun to explain.

When he arrived at the venue with Guan Zhilin, he was naturally met by hundreds of reporters, who surrounded the car.

"Master Jun, please tell me, your "Hot Detective" was recently suppressed by "Mr. Zombie 3". Do you feel frustrated?"

"Master Jun, 7-11 has been developing rapidly in Thailand recently. Are Southeast Asian countries the next target for convenience stores?"

"Master Jun, it is said that Kylin TV's advertising investment conference this year will have a huge surprise. Will it set another advertising fee record?"

"Miss Guan, you have become beautiful again recently. When will you marry Mr. Jun?"

"Ms. Guan, Japan's "Lise" magazine named you the most beautiful woman in Asia. Even Lin Qingxia, Zhao Yazhi, and Zhong Chuhong were ranked behind you. Do you think you deserve your reputation?"

"..."

Reporters from all pages asked Yin Jun and Guan Zhilin loudly through the bodyguards, but other than smiles, they received no response.

But reporters also have ideas.

"Faced with the problem, Yin Jun was speechless."

"Guan Zhilin looks ugly and looks guilty."

Such answers will be reflected in their manuscripts.

If you have to worry about it, Yin Jun doesn't have to do business all day long.

But these reporters are also measured, and they can only arrange unimportant tidbits like this.

If serious matters are involved, no one dares to say nonsense. There are many lessons learned from the past, and they don't want to be driven out of Xiangjiang forever and disappear without a trace.

"Master Jun, Miss Guan!"

The two of them went up the steps under the protection of bodyguards. Of course, the reporters could no longer follow. They were greeted by a slightly bald middle-aged man.

His name is Zhou Pingsheng, the youngest son of Sir Zhou Xinian.

Sir Zhou Xinian is a famous rich man in Hong Kong, the chairman of Chinese Bank, and once the chairman of Dairy Milk Company.

But since the milk company was forcibly acquired by Land, Zhou Xinian has been in a state of decline and has rarely appeared in public in recent years.

On weekdays, his two sons take care of his business.

It's just that Zhou Xinian became popular in old age and had a confidante, so his relationship with his two sons was somewhat estranged.

But there were no signs this time, because the guests at the charity auction were invited in the name of Zhou Xinian, and the most valuable auction item, the No. 3 license plate, was donated by Sir Zhou Xinian.

No matter what the reason is, Yin Jun doesn't have to worry about their Zhou family's affairs, as long as this license plate is there.

There is no doubt that Yin Jun is the most famous guest at this charity auction, so Zhou Pingsheng has been standing at the door waiting for him to come over.

"Hello Mr. Zhou!"

Yin Jun also smiled and greeted him.

Zhou Pingsheng and his brother Zhou Pingquan both work at Chinese Bank. One is the executive president and the other is the deputy managing director. Yin Jun has met them several times, but has not had in-depth discussions.

"Young Master Jun, it's really our honor to have you come here." Zhou Pingsheng welcomed Yin Jun and walked inside, "My father is very happy and wants to thank Young Master Jun for the support. But his old man's health has not been very good recently. If you can't come out to meet the guests, just let me say sorry."

"Sir, Sir Zhou is the pride of our Chinese people. Last time I went to visit him with Mr. Huo, I was deeply impressed by his speech, behavior and demeanor." Yin Jun also said as he walked, "Although Sir Zhou is not in good health, Xian Kunzhong is now managing Chinese Bank very well. He should also be very pleased that there is a successor to his career."

"hehe."

Zhou Pingsheng was very happy to hear this, but he immediately lowered his voice, "Master Jun, because of your coming, many people from the real estate industry have also come. Their seats are next to you, sorry!"
