Chapter 1997 Ribbon Cutting

The first thing Yin Jun did when he returned to Xiangjiang was naturally to cut the ribbon for the opening of Qilin Commercial Plaza.

In March last year, Huo Jianning set off a storm of acquisitions in Xiangjiang with a huge sum of 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Among them is a very important project, which is to customize 8 commercial plazas for real estate companies such as Cheung Kong Group, New World Development, Henderson Land Development, and Sun Hung Kai.

Kirin Department Store has very high requirements. The location must be good, and it must be a bustling commercial area. The second point is that the storey height must reach 8 meters. There are 16 floors in total, and each floor has an area of ​​39,000 square feet. The commercial building must be accompanied by a Grand Plaza not less than 5,400 square feet.

At the time of delivery, the square had to be repaired with fountains, convenience facilities, etc.

The delivery time is also particular, so they were given 14 months, no later than May of 1985 at the latest.

With so many requirements, the price will naturally not be low. For example, the three Kirin Commercial Plazas in Sheung Wan and Central, the price for Sun Hung Kai and Cheung Kong Group is 1.3-1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is very generous.

Even in the cheapest Ho Man Tin and Kowloon areas, the price is about 700 million Hong Kong dollars.

At that time, Xiangjiang's real estate was at its lowest point, so when encountering such a large order, these real estate developers immediately made a decision to accept the order.

In any case, if you can sell the land and start construction, you can feed a lot of employees, and you can allocate a sum of money to ease the pressure on your own capital chain.

Then, although Kirin Department Store pays in installments, the prepayment is only 30%, and the rest will not be paid until after the house is handed over and accepted, but they can get a loan based on the specific amount of the transaction when they get the list from Kirin Real Estate.

What's the meaning?

For example, the Kirin Commercial Plaza in Sun Hung Kai Sheung Wan is priced at 1.3 billion Hong Kong dollars. They take this list to HSBC, and HSBC can give them a mortgage loan at a value of 1.3 billion.

Because this is Yin Jun's property, there is no need to worry about breach of contract!

They are working here in full swing, not only amazed by the courage of Qilin Real Estate, but also caused dissatisfaction among many people.

These people are the employees of Kirin Group.

To be precise, it was the protest of the employees of Kirin Industrial Park and Kirin Construction Company.

This group of employees has a total of 120,000 people, making it the largest group of industrial workers in Xiangjiang.

Most of them are new immigrants from 1978 to 1982, that is, the group that Yin Jun specially sent someone to pick them up.

These people are not natives of Xiangjiang, so after coming to Xiangjiang, they lived in the largest and poorest area in Xiangjiang - the New Territories.

To be precise, it is on a large piece of land between Yuen Long and Tin Shui Wai in the New Territories.

This piece of land is larger than Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, and it is more than enough to accommodate the new immigrants and their families.

Over the years, a lot of housing estates have been built here, and they don't have much difficulty in housing.

But the living facilities are too poor.

Although it is near the industrial park and in the market, there are small shops, snack shops, daily necessities stores, etc., but except for the 7-11 convenience store, the rest are very messy, and there are some problems with the quality. It doesn't fit the employees of Kirin Group who are getting richer and richer.

The biggest reason why they didn't move to the city is that they work here. If they moved to Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon and other places, it would take more than an hour to come to work, which is too far away.

Even so, many of them went to urban areas to buy houses, and it seemed that they also wanted a better quality of life.

Now Kirin Department Store has suddenly announced that it will build eight large commercial plazas in Hong Kong, with supermarkets, department stores, restaurants, tuition schools, cinemas, karaoke, etc., but none of them are in Tin Shui Wai and Yuen Long. Are you messing around?

Others can enjoy the convenience of this large and convenient commercial plaza, but we ourselves can't. What are you thinking?

Everyone immediately reported it to the top, and then Huo Jianning received too many people's feedback and opinions.

Originally, what he and Yin Jun meant was to build 8 Qilin commercial plazas in a prosperous commercial and densely populated area, and then think about slowly extending them to the outside.

But they really didn't expect that the hundreds of thousands of people in Qilin Industrial Park and the New Territories also had a very urgent need for these commercial plazas.

And people's spending power is not low at all.

The employees of the Kirin Group receive at least HK$5,000 a month, which is twice the average salary in Hong Kong.

Such people have no consumption power, so who else has consumption power?

Yin Jun has given full power to Huo Jianning to handle this matter.

After much deliberation, Huo Jianning simply decided to build a Kylin Commercial Plaza in Yuen Long and Tin Shui Wai to meet everyone's needs.

As soon as this decision was made, the employees of Kirin Group laughed and laughed, celebrating their victory.

Kirin Group has tens of millions of sq. , there is no cheap outsiders at all.

Therefore, this time Yin Jun came back to cut the ribbon, and there are a total of 10 Qilin Commercial Plazas.

The model of Xiangjiang Kylin Commercial Plaza is different from that in the mainland. The factories in the mainland are not willing to rent their own shops to do business, but the people in Xiangjiang like to do so very much.

Therefore, before the building was handed over in May, the investment promotion of Kirin Department Store had already ended.

Except for the movie theater and supermarket, which are operated by Kirin Department Store itself, all other shops and counters are contracted by other companies or individuals who do business.

Of course, in a commercial city as big as Xiangjiang, there are some necessary discounts for some shopping malls.

Qilin Commercial Plaza also offers great discounts. In addition to the two-month rent-free renovation period, the rent for the first year is 50% of the signed rent, 70% for the second year, 80% for the third year, and 80% for the fourth year. Only 100% of the signed rent will be charged, and the rent will not be increased within three years.

Calculated in this way, the rent of Kirin Commercial Plaza in the first year is only 2.25 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Merchants have such ample time and such generous rent conditions, of course they are overwhelmed and want to rush in.

After all, this is the first large-scale department store commercial plaza owned by Xiangjiang. It is not only shopping, but also entertainment, etc., which is integrated.

Many savvy businessmen have taken a fancy to this kind of business model, and feel that it has a bright future.

Therefore, the competition for entry at that time was almost overwhelmed. Fortunately, Zhang Chengguang, the general manager of Kirin Department Store Xiangjiang District, was good at dancing, and finally chose the best, and settled all parties.

Qilin Commercial Plaza chose to open on Sunday, August 18th. Of course, Yin Jun could not go to every commercial plaza to cut the ribbon. He and the company's senior management each chose one to cut the ribbon.

The boy chose the Qilin Commercial Plaza near the Tianshuiwei headquarters.

Because the publicity is very good, Xiangjiang people have never seen such a commercial plaza before. On the opening day, the fountain plaza at the entrance can be described as a sea of ​​people. In this commercial plaza in Tin Shui Wai alone, there are at least 50,000 people waiting to go in and have a look. .

At this time, according to Le Yiling's words, the Qilin security team finally came in handy.

Although the 10 Kylin commercial plazas require a lot of security, it is not a problem at all for the 12,000-member Kylin security team.

Yin Jun's attitude towards the Qilin security team is that as long as they are outstanding veterans and young people with training potential, they can be recruited.

It stands to reason that ordinary people should not like the job of security, because it is very hard, and they can only do it for ten or twenty years when they are young, and they don't know what to do when they are old.

But the Kylin Security Team is different. From the first day of its establishment, it has been the department that countless immigrants from the mainland dream of joining.

The most important thing is that the salary of the Kirin security team is very high. When the employees of several factories of the Kirin Group can only get a salary of more than 2,000, they have already started at 4,000.

Now in 1985, when the average monthly salary in Xiangjiang was 2,300, their average salary was 8,000 Hong Kong dollars, topping any factory or even any company in Xiangjiang.

Then Yin Jun also promised that when the members of the Kirin security team get older, the company will also be responsible for their pensions and basic living conditions, guaranteed by his personality.

Who is Yin Jun?

It is recognized that the person with the best character and the most promise-keeping is also one of the richest people in Xiangjiang, so of course everyone chose to believe him.

Also because of these conditions, there are countless people who want to join the Qilin Security Team.

Jing Zhonghong and the others have gone through careful selection, continuous selection and competitions before they finally choose to let them join.

Joining is not just insurance, but they need to go through hard training and several tests before they can finally be allowed to stay, otherwise they will be eliminated if they fail.

It's just that there are not as many as 12,000 members of the Kirin Security Team in Xiangjiang. Over the past few years, Yin Jun has sent 6,000 members of the Kirin Security Team to Western Australia.

On the Wankang Company side, it would be impossible to sit in command without the necessary force.

Even though the folk customs in Western Australia are simple, and I have people in the government and the parliament, I must never hand over my fate to others. Some necessary force deterrence is needed.

Although nothing happened in Western Australia in the past few years, there were no accidents at all, but Yin Jun did not relax his vigilance and prepared to let the 6,000 people settle there.

Not to mention, the 6,000-member Qilin security team has played a leading role in the construction of mining areas, roads, railways, and ports in the past two years.

Their military style works well.

With the leadership of this group of people, those ordinary immigrants can work in an orderly manner without wasting any time.
