Chapter 370 Let’s split the price difference!

Wang Yuanchao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at Yu Jingwei's generosity.

"I've already said that we are friends. It's too formal for friends to do this!"

Yu Jingwei threw the file bag into Wang Yuanchao's office and said seriously:
"If you think my life is worthless, just throw it to me."

Then Yu Jingwei's face relaxed, he raised his eyelids, and said with a sly smile:
"Wang Sheng, you and I have similar interests, so we are like-minded. I will give you a house, and you can also make a separate courtyard, so that your younger brother and sister-in-law won't miss you, right?"

Well, two romantic figures, meet together.

Wang Yuanchao didn't say anything more. He had reported to his wife before marrying a concubine, but luxury houses were also being built everywhere, so he just took it. Just like Yu Jingwei said, his life was valuable.

Wang Yuanchao said:

"Let me check your pulse again."

Yu Jingwei stretched out his hand swiftly, and said proudly:
"The great experts in your Baoan Hall have diagnosed me and I'm cured! I also went to St. Mary's Hospital for an ultrasound and blood test and everything is fine. They even think I used a miracle drug!"

After Wang Yuanchao felt the pulse, he said calmly:
"The worms are gone, but my kidneys are a little deficient. I have some medicinal wine here, would you like some?"

Yu Jingwei's smile paused, then immediately became sunny again and said:
"Of course, good friends, be loyal."

But I silently thought to myself, why didn’t the great master mention this?
"By the way, the champion of the upcoming beauty pageant finals will be Wang Ling, who is considered to be your sister-in-law. You go back and explain to the judges from your station. You don't have to act too deliberate, but there can be no surprises." Anyway, Yu Jingwei is here, so he might as well explain everything clearly.

Yu Jingwei showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face and said:

"It's a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven! Miss Wang has been in Hong Kong recently, and she's been very popular! When she stands there, she'll stand out from the crowd!"

Inwardly, he lamented and felt lucky: I had some thoughts about Wang Ling and was ready to talk to her, but luckily I was busy with my health recently and didn't do anything. Otherwise...

In fact, there are many people who want to express their opinions to Wang Ling, but are you as handsome, rich, and powerful as Wang Yuanchao?

Countless people returned empty-handed.

The two talked for a while before Yu Jingwei left satisfied.

Wang Yuanchao finally came to his senses.

Yu Jingwei sent this valuable gift to show that Wang Yuanchao could not have any idea about TVB. Especially after this beauty pageant, TVB also became known to all households. Everyone wants to see what a beauty pageant looks like. How can the photos in the newspaper look as good as real people?
Live tickets are so expensive, not everyone can afford them, so naturally the prices for television and TVB will also rise.

Yu Jingwei was still very wary of Wang Yuanchao's media empire, and he had to take precautions.

The best way, of course, is to keep the other person quiet.

This generous gift of a luxury house is actually a repayment for most of the favor of saving his life.

It can't be said that all are returned. After all, if Wang Yuanchao wants him to help, it is not a problem. Another step, who can guarantee that he will be healthy? It is still necessary to maintain a good relationship with Wang Yuanchao.

But relationships and TVB are two different things.

This is what Yu Jingwei thought after he recovered.

By now, Wang Yuanchao had almost figured it out.

All I can say is that before he could extend his claws to TVB, he was blocked back by them.

I should have known better.

However, if it had always been Yu Jingwei, Uncle Shaw would not be able to take charge of TVB, and perhaps TVB would not be so powerful?

If TVB has no movies, then ATV? John just asks for a higher price, especially now that ATV is suppressed by TVB, which means its price is suppressed.

Wang Yuanchao put all this behind him. The popularity of television in Hong Kong needs to be improved, but there is no rush at this moment.
-
After visiting the World Expo in Japan, the horse racing ticket agency immediately upgraded its sales system and started using printers to keep up with the times.

The EP-1968 printer launched by Epson in September 9 had become very mature after almost two years.

With this thing, horse racing tickets no longer need to be printed and filled in by hand, they can be printed directly with a printer, which greatly improves efficiency, anti-counterfeiting and performance.

If we use computers, we won’t need manual statistics anymore.

It has to be said that the horses sent by Yu Jingwei made Wang Yuanchao speak ill of himself but act righteously.

It’s not that I want to send it to participate in the competition, but riding a horse in Tai Po in my spare time is also a unique experience.

Before traveling through time, Wang Yuanchao knew very well that there were two racecourses in Hong Kong, Happy Valley and Sha Tin.

Today, Happy Valley Racecourse on Hong Kong Island is the only racecourse in Hong Kong. With the popularity of horse racing tickets, horse racing has become more popular, and the venue is often packed during race days.

Citizens who have made money by buying horse racing tickets always want to go to the scene to experience and watch the exciting horse racing in person, right?

Therefore, the Jockey Club has been considering building a new racecourse to accommodate the development of horse racing.

Tai Po is very close to Sha Tin, and the Jockey Club is now richer than at the same time in history. In addition, Wang Yuanchao also wants to watch horse racing at his doorstep, so he has actively promoted the project work of Sha Tin Racecourse.

He went so far as to visit Governor-General Trench in person.

Because he not only had many official collaborations with the Governor, but also had a good personal friendship with him, the Governor quickly received him.

"Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Wang Yuanchao thought to himself, I have always offered friendship to the Governor-General's wife on time, so he smiled and said:

"I'm here to give His Excellency the Governor some good news. Recently, our Miss Hong Kong went to the United States to participate in the Miss Universe competition. She lived up to everyone's expectations and won the Miss Universe crown.

This is good news that under the Governor's administration, Hong Kong's culture is at the forefront of the world.

Without the Governor's hard work and dedication over the years, how could Hong Kong have developed to this point today? "

Wang Yuanchao did all the off-field work he could, and Wang Ling won easily and took home the Miss Universe title.

Trench laughed and said:
"I read the newspapers and they all reported that this was a victory for Hong Kong."

Wang Yuanchao continued:

"Yes, after a few decades, people would ask, when was the first Miss Universe in Hong Kong? They would say, oh, it was during the time of Governor Trench. At that time, we not only won the Miss Universe title, but everyone had money in their pockets and there was a wonderful New Year's Eve party."

Trench smiled even more happily and said:

"Okay, okay, my friend, you never come to me for no reason. What can I do for you?"

Wang Yuanchao said seriously:

"Your Excellency the Governor is well aware of the contribution of the Hong Kong Jockey Club to the fiscal revenue. However, this vigorous national sport now only has one racecourse in Happy Valley, which is very cramped. This has created a great obstacle to the development of the Jockey Club and the sales of horse racing tickets."

Trench also stopped smiling. The sale of horse racing tickets contributed a lot of tax, so there couldn't be any mistakes. He crossed his hands and said:
"So, what's your suggestion?"

"Can we add a new horse farm?" Wang Yuanchao was also direct.

"But a racecourse is different from a football field. It requires a larger flat area, and it seems that there is no such large area in Hong Kong," said the Governor worriedly.

Wang Yuanchao took out a map from his briefcase, as well as a detailed map of the area around Shatin, and said:

“In fact, Hong Kong has always had a tradition of land reclamation.

The authorities only needed to allocate a piece of land and let the Jockey Club transform it on its own. The Jockey Club had accumulated a lot of money, which could be used to reclaim land.

In this way, the money can be used to invest in construction and promote the development of the private economy.

You see here, there is a large area of ​​water and there are hills nearby. The location is relatively central and very suitable because the mountains are leveled and reclaimed from the sea.

"

Trench looked at the map and saw that Shatin had moved to the New Territories. But it was true that it could only be along the coast, after all, there were mountains in the middle. He frowned and said:
"I'm afraid this project is a bit big."

He thought that by then, he might have returned to John and would no longer be in Hong Kong, and his term would expire next year.

Wang Yuanchao seemed to understand his concerns and said:

“This project is huge and will take a long time, but I can guarantee that the land reclamation project will bear witness to our friendship!”

Wang Yuanchao knew that Trench's term was about to end, and the old man was worried that the predecessors would plant trees and the future generations would enjoy the shade. He could only promise that the friendship would not change.

He had been in a relationship with the Governor for two years, and all along, he had been using investment dividends, an impeccable method, to transfer the money to the Governor and his wife through the Governor's wife's cousin-in-law.

The Governor's wife is a beautiful American, and his brother-in-law Robinson is naturally also a beautiful American.

It's normal for American people to do business here, and no one can say anything about it.

When the time comes, Robinson will take the job and hand it over to the outsourced company designated by Wang Yuanchao to execute it. He doesn't have to do anything and can earn a 10-point profit!
This is also the way Wang Yuanchao has always cooperated with the governor.

Unlike Horton, it was all straight cash.

Trembling looked at the map and saw a simple calculation of the engineering quantities next to it. The engineering cost alone for this reclamation project would be tens of millions, which was 10% of friendship.

However, land reclamation is the biggest expense. He doesn't want to lose the construction of the horse farm behind it. It should cost tens of millions, right?
"Can't the reclamation and construction projects be packaged together? I think if they are separated, there will be some delays in the construction period. The people of Hong Kong are so eager for the racecourse."

Wang Yuanchao was not afraid of the governor making requests, but was afraid that the governor would not make any requests. He immediately smiled and said:
"Your Excellency the Governor is indeed considerate of the citizens' concerns. I fully agree with this. But you also know that I am only a selected member of the Jockey Club, not even a director, so my voice is not influential."

The leaders of the Jockey Club must be hoping to get a share of the profits from this big project. Wang Yuanchao means that we should leave some for them, right?

He didn't expect to earn commissions from this, but it was good enough for him to support his workers and members of the community. With employment in hand, his words were his due.

The Governor said:
"Mr. Wang has made such a great contribution, but they didn't nominate you to join the board of directors. This is really wrong."

Trench was unwilling to let go of this benefit. Millions of Hong Kong dollars were equivalent to tens of thousands of pounds!
"How about this," Wang Yuanchao drew a circle on the map in the empty sea area next to the horse farm and said, "The government will offer this land at a lower price and put it up for auction first. Without the news of the horse farm, I think no one will compete. After I get the project, if other people have ideas, I can balance it out."

This is a case of information asymmetry.

It’s like the subway line hasn’t been opened yet, but you have occupied the land next to the station in advance. Those who understand will understand how huge the premium will be later.

Trench's eyes suddenly widened and he made a slight hissing sound.

"Such a large piece of land, um..."

Wang Yuanchao immediately said:

"Robinson and I can form a joint venture company to acquire this land, and then after the racecourse is approved, I will buy back this part of the shares from Mr. Robinson at the market price."

Let's split the price difference!
