Vivian Zhao's Choice Between Love and Wealth Chapter 479

In the reception room of Diaoyutai in Beijing, the Prime Minister is meeting a guest, and this guest is Asia's richest man Luo Shirong. He is over 60 years old, with a ruddy complexion, a bright spirit, and black and shiny hair without a single stray color. He looks much younger than his actual age. If you don't know him, you would definitely think he is only in his 40s.

Luo Shirong said: "I think you should have noticed that Hengyuan has suffered heavy losses in the competition with Chuanhe Industrial, and is no longer able to take over the Hong Kong assets sold by the British."

Since last year, the British have been selling off their assets in Hong Kong, creating a downward gap. The British Jardine Matheson, Landmark, Swire, and Kadoorie families have sold off their core assets on a large scale and moved westward.

Who took over these assets? Chinese tycoons took over some, among whom Luo Shirong contributed the most, and red chips took over some. This gave the mainland the image of backing Hong Kong, and the traditional face-saving tradition. Last year, red chips took over many commercial and industrial buildings from the British, leaving a deep impression of the local tyrants in the market.

It is now the middle of 1996. As 1997 approaches, the market is getting more and more enthusiastic. The slogan of Hong Kong people is, don't doubt it, the mainland will definitely take over. So Hong Kong people are like crazy, desperately driving up the housing prices, with a bold heart. At this time, along the KCR line, there are rows of townhouses, which are the famous high-ranking official buildings in later generations, about more than 10 million per unit, this is 1996.
