Chapter 485 Added Value of Lanai Island
The golf course cleverly utilizes the natural topography of Lanai Island and the unparalleled sea view, facing Maui Island and Kahoolawe Island, and can see the Sweetheart Rock from different angles.
You can complete the challenging back 9 holes accompanied by wine and food, or simply come to the course to enjoy wine and sunset!
Looking at the golf course again from the edge of the cliff, Yang Cheng felt that the challenge of completing the last few holes was a bit unbelievable. She looked away and, led by the staff arranged by the hotel, walked along the cliff against the setting sun. The magnificent seaside On the cliff, you can go in and explore when you see caves occasionally. Maybe there are bones of Hawaiian ancestors hidden in a certain cliff cave.
Because they had just had a picnic, neither of them felt hungry. They didn't drive back to the hotel until the sun had completely set, leaving only a gray sky.
Their investigation is not over yet. Meals are also a necessary part of travel, and delicious food is especially important. In many cases, food that makes people linger and forget is an important factor in determining whether tourists will return to scenic spots.
Because Lanai itself does not have many restaurants to choose from, tourists can only taste the high-end food in the hotel. Of course, if you are confident in your language communication skills, you can book a homestay in advance to taste the most authentic and popular food of the local people.
Yang Cheng and the others didn’t bother, mainly because it was too late and they hadn’t communicated in advance, but there are also a variety of choices in the hotel, from classic flavors to bold innovations, all using the freshest and high-quality local and imported ingredients .
If it's the morning, wake up to the oceanfront pool for a morning swim, then head to the hotel's on-site Malibu restaurant for brunch with views of Hulopoe Bay.
When night fell, Yang Cheng came to the hotel's popular RB cuisine restaurant on the recommendation of the room steward, and tasted the chef's specialty seven-course dinner, enjoying fresh local ingredients from Hawaii, accompanied by the restaurant's original and award-winning The sake master will personally teach you how to taste sake, and experience every step from smell to taste. Don't be surprised, Hawaii never lacks the elements of small RB.
After a day of fun and a delicious dinner, it is essential to have a spa treatment. It is worth mentioning that Lanai Island is the birthplace of Hawaiian massage. The whole massage process is as strong and gentle as Lanai Island. The body and soul gradually wake up and rejuvenate in this flowing rhythm.
The physical therapist uses the right pressure on the hands, forearms and elbows to massage the whole back at a uniform speed, which helps to restore vitality quickly and at the same time allows you to relax your whole body and mind. Experience the art of this massage, even Yang Cheng himself Have to admit, this massage was a pure Hawaiian experience.
In a relaxed environment, Yang Cheng could not help but analyze the feasibility of this acquisition, combined with the memories of the day, private islands, private nature, a new combination of countryside + beach resorts + shopping and food, a brand new experience in Hawaii Vacation style, an intimate and romantic vacation, is highly gimmicky around the world.
Coupled with the privacy of the private island and the bonus of high-end attributes, the advantages of acquiring the shares of Lanai Island outweigh the disadvantages, and you don’t have to fully fund it yourself, and David Ellison will also share part of it, so you don’t have to worry about financial pressure.
What makes Yang Cheng more important is the ownership of Hawaii Island Airlines in the hands of Larry Ellison.
Hawaiian Island Airlines is a small airline headquartered in Honolulu, Hawaii, mainly shuttling between Oahu, Maui, Molokai, Lanai and Kauai in Hawaii.
Island Air, formerly known as Princeville Air, was founded in 1980. At that time, only two biplanes traveled regularly between Princeville and Honolulu. Later, it changed hands several times. Until 2013, it was privately owned by Oracle Corporation Chairman Larry Ellison. Buy it and it will be stable.
Of course, if it was just an island airline, it wouldn't affect Yang Cheng's decision to acquire Lanai, but through the island airline, he could see the possibility of coveting Hawaiian Airlines.
Hawaiian Airlines is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Holdings, founded in 1929, headquartered in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA, with 6,909 full-time employees, mainly engaged in air passenger and air cargo services.
At present, Hawaiian Airlines mainly operates North American routes, including Hawaii to Los Angeles, California, Oakland, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose; Hawaii to Las Vegas, Nevada; Hawaii to Phoenix, Arizona; Hawaii to Portland, Oregon City and Hawaii to Seattle flights.
In addition, Hawaiian Airlines also provides intra-island routes between the six major islands of Hawaii, all of which are daily flights;
Hawaii also offers daily flights to Sydney, Australia, and a handful of international routes to Tokyo and Osaka, Japan.
Of course, in order to assist the tourism business in Hawaii, Hawaiian Airlines also provides scheduled flight services, and the route covers major cities in the world: New York, Tahiti, Brisbane, Auckland, Seoul, Beijing, and various charter services!
Regardless of its small size, compared with Delta Air Lines, it is the difference between an eagle and a chick, but Hawaiian Airlines’ profitability cannot be underestimated. It maintains a net profit of around 30 million in a single quarter, and an annual operating income of more than 700 million US dollars and With a net profit of 100 million US dollars, the overall operation is very healthy, backed by the excellent tourism resources of the Hawaiian Islands, it can be said that Hawaiian Airlines itself is invincible!
Being valued by Yang Cheng naturally has its own unique features. Of course, compared with the amazing financial report data, Yang Cheng pays more attention to the strategic significance of Hawaiian Airlines. Between the two continents of America and Asia, it has the ability to communicate with North America, Oceania, Australia and even South America. With Hawaii as a transit base, Delta Air Lines can completely expand its moat to the Pacific Ocean and deepen its connection to the continent of country Z. Their old rival American Airlines is far behind.
Of course, the premise is that Yang Cheng has to seize this opportunity!
The market value of Hawaiian Airlines itself is not high. The current stock price is hovering around US$5. With its total share capital of just over 50 million, its total market value is less than US$300 million, which is not even as high as Lanai Island. Of course, there is a difference between the two Can not use the price to measure the high and low.
In short, Yang Cheng can easily buy it at a premium, but they have to agree to sell it, and its major shareholder behind the scenes is one of the financial giants with good money - Deutsche Bank!
