Chapter 566 Sir Yang Wants to Acquire the Hong Kong Underground Railway Company!
Chapter 566 Sir Yang wants to acquire the Xiangjiang Mass Transit Railway Company! Let the Governor's Palace be shocked! !
Lin Xiuzhi was not very clear about the plan of Xiangjiang Science and Technology Park. From what her boss said to the three people just now, she was a little surprised.
During this time, she personally followed her boss to Silicon Valley, and she got to know a little bit about Silicon Valley.
"Go to the Governor's Palace after get off work."
"Yes, boss."
. . .
Yang Ming has been busy in the morning.
Finished lunch at noon.
17:00 pm.
Lin Dezhong has arrived.
"Boss, we are leaving for the Governor's Mansion." Lin Dezhong knocked on the door and came in and said.
Yang Ming, Lin Dezhong, Lin Xiuzhi, and the bodyguards Chen Zhenhua and Zhang Guohua followed in their cars.
Yang Ming came to the Governor's Mansion in the Rolls Royce.
Just stopped.
The MacLehose couple have come out.
Since Yang Ming talked with him that time, Mailihao has naturally become closer to Yang Ming, because he knows that only Sir Yang can allow him to continue to sit in the position of the Governor's Mansion.
"Sir Yang, welcome to the Governor's Mansion."
"Mr. Governor, Madam Governor, hello."
Yang Ming greeted Mailihao and his wife and went inside.
On to the study room.
Yang Ming first talked to Mai Lihao about business alone.
"Mr. Maliho, do you know where I have been during this time?"
"I heard it's San Francisco?"
Some time ago, it was reported in Hong Kong that Empire Group established a Future Capital Venture Company in San Francisco's Silicon Valley to raise US$400 million for the Pingguo Computer Company.
In addition, there are rumors that the Imperial Group purchased 200,000 office computers.
"Yes, it's the Silicon Valley Park to be precise. I went there to inspect the market. I have always believed that Xiangjiang with high housing prices has no future, because Xiangjiang with such high housing prices is deformed and only a few people make profits, including I am included. In my opinion, if that is the case, Xiangjiang will decline sooner or later, because if there is no industrial development in a place, the real estate industry will also decline.”
Mailihao nodded.
Yang Ming mentioned this to him.
“This time I visited Silicon Valley, I realized the booming development of Silicon Valley technology. In my opinion, today’s Xiangjiang is one of the three major financial cities in the world. In addition to attracting many financial talents, in terms of technology, But no, I think Xiangjiang should also learn from Silicon Valley.”
Learn from Silicon Valley?
Mailihao was even more surprised.
Xiangjiang is too small, how can we learn from Silicon Valley?
The San Francisco Bay Area is huge, and Silicon Valley is not small either.
Unless, as Sir Yang said, land reclamation is carried out near Lantau Island.
"Mr. Governor, I plan to establish the Xiangjiang Science and Technology Park in this area, with an approximate area of 100 square kilometers. Eastern University, Eastern University of Science and Technology, and Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology will be established nearby. When these universities cultivate talents, they can also build the Xiangjiang Science and Technology Park. Provide a steady stream of talents. In addition, with the help of Xiangjiang transportation, we can also attract talents from overseas to develop in Xiangjiang.”
Yang Ming mentioned so-called technology to Mai Lihao again.
In fact, game consoles and arcade machines are also part of technology, and even part of the semiconductor industry. Now Empire Games is making huge profits.
If there are ten, or even a hundred, or hundreds of such companies in the Xiangjiang Science and Technology Park in the future, you can imagine what will happen.
After hearing this, Mailihao was surprised again.
"For the development of the Heung Kong Science and Technology Park, I plan to build a subway together with the Central District of Heung Kong and Kowloon of Heung Kong."
Now there is the East Rail Line along with the New Territories North. It is above ground and is still a little different from the real subway.
Build a subway?
Isn't this a matter of the Hong Kong Mass Transit Railway Company?
Governor Mailihao was surprised.
The Hong Kong Mass Transit Railway Corporation was established in 1975 under the Mass Transit Railway Corporation Ordinance to construct and operate a mass transport railway system in Hong Kong as a statutory corporation and was wholly owned by the Financial Secretary Incorporated on behalf of the then Government House in the form of trust. Owned and operated on prudent business principles to meet local public transportation needs.
In 1979, the first section of the MTR was completed and opened, and other lines were opened in 1982 and 1986.
In 1998, a railway Airport Express specially built for Xiangjiang International Airport was completed and opened.
The Financial Secretary Incorporated represented Heung Kong in the privatization of Heung Kong through a public offering in June 2000, selling 23% of the shares of the Mass Transit Railway Corporation. Listed on an exchange.
Now that Maliho heard Sir Yang say it like that, he was really surprised.
"Mr. Maliho, when I come here this time, I want to talk to you about the acquisition of the Xiangjiang Mass Transit Railway Company."
What?
Sir Yang actually wants to acquire the Hong Kong Mass Transit Railway Company?
The Xiangjiang Metro Rail Company not only builds and operates subways, but also involves many above-ground properties.
It also recorded railway operating profits in the 1990s, prompting its privatization.
Its properties along the line, property management business and international railway consulting business continued to develop in the 2000s.
The well-known property business in Xiangjiang includes residential projects such as Landmark, Arc de Triomphe, and LOHAS Park, as well as commercial projects such as Elements, International Financial Center Phases 1 and 2, International Financial Center Shopping Mall, and International Commerce Plaza.
Hong Kong MTR Corporation is also actively cooperating with other institutions outside Hong Kong to build and operate railway businesses in cities such as London Overground, Pengcheng MTR, Yanjing MTR, and Hangzhou MTR.
In other words, it is not just an underground railway transportation company, but also involves many properties.
"I hope to acquire it. As for the price, we can send the Empire Group to the Finance Department of the Governor's Office and even the management of the MTR Corporation to discuss. In addition, it does not necessarily need to be fully acquired. The Governor's Office can retain a part."
After listening, Mai Lihao stood up.
This made him a little worried.
Hong Kong MTR Corporation is not like Hong Kong Water Company.
At the beginning, Hong Kong Water Company was also controlled by the Water Supplies Department, but Hong Kong Water Company did not make much profit.
Now Hong Kong MTR Corporation, although it is not profitable, involves many transportation and industries in Hong Kong. If it is handed over to the Empire Group, it is equivalent to handing over the planning of Hong Kong MTR to the Empire Group. I am afraid that other real estate developers in Hong Kong will have great opinions.
"Sir Yang, I am willing to support you, but I am afraid that there will be great resistance in the middle. It is not a matter of money, but it involves many interests."
"I know. This time I came to talk to you about the Hong Kong Science Park and the Hong Kong Underground Railway Company. I hope you can return to London and communicate well with the London side. In addition, I will let Mr. Mai Lisi and Miss Keira in London come forward, and even let Mr. Shen Yi come forward."
It is already early June.
The Queen's official birthday is on the second Saturday of June, and Mai Lihao can just go back to celebrate the Queen's birthday.
In Yang Ming's opinion, Mai Lihao doesn't even need to mediate. With Mai Lisi, Keira, and Shen Yi coming forward, it can basically be done.
