Xie Wan thought about it and realized that since he was going to enter the real estate industry in Hong Kong City, he would inevitably have to deal with these local businessmen in the future.
She herself is a complete novice, and it wouldn't be a bad thing if she could get to know a master in the industry.
Xie Wan agreed to meet with Guo Desheng privately.
Guo Desheng was taken into the lounge.
The two sides met and exchanged a few polite words.
Guo Desheng was trying to find out Xie Wan's identity through his words.
"Miss Xie is really young and promising. She was able to produce so many antiques at once. I wonder which prestigious family in the mainland does Miss Xie belong to?"
Xie Wan's dress and conversation have exposed her identity as a mainlander.
Big businessmen in Hong Kong like Guo Desheng are very concerned about the developments in the mainland.
They all know that the development of the port city is closely related to the mainland.
It was after learning that Xie Wan was the biggest seller tonight that Guo Desheng guessed that Xie Wan must be the descendant of a high-ranking official in the mainland and wanted to make friends with him.
Apart from anything else, being able to learn about mainland policy trends in advance from the children of these high-ranking officials can also provide a clear direction for their business in Hong Kong.
Xie Wan played dumb, "I'm just a villager, not a descendant of a prominent family."
Guo Desheng felt that it was normal for Xie Wan not to say anything now. After all, they had just met, and it would seem stupid if he spoke too much to her.
"Miss Xie, you owe me a big favor tonight!"
Guo Desheng tried to make friends in a joking way.
Xie Wan found it funny that the old man came here to ask for a favor.
Indeed, if it weren't for Guo Desheng tonight, her Yongzheng yellow-ground enamel flower and bird plate would definitely not have sold for the high price of 18 million.
But Xie Wan didn't want to acknowledge this favor.
She pretended to be stupid and said, "Mr. Guo is benefiting others and himself, it's a win-win situation, it can't be called a favor, right?"
Guo Desheng originally thought that Xie Wan was young and could be fooled.
After several attempts, he found that this little girl was flawless.
He became more cautious towards Xie Wan and asked, "Miss Xie, do you have any idea of investing in Hong Kong City?"
Xie Wan thought to himself, if I tell you that I want to defeat your future four major families in Hong Kong City, you will definitely think I am crazy.
She asked back, "What good business can Mr. Guo introduce?"
"What does Miss Xie think of the real estate industry in Hong Kong City?"
Xie Wan was stunned. Could it be that Old Deng didn't know that he wanted to invest in real estate?
Could it be that he is having financial difficulties now and wants to get me to join him?
She pretended not to understand and said, "I heard that houses in Gangcheng are unsaleable now, land prices have fallen by 50%, and the stocks of several listed real estate companies have fallen to penny stocks. There should be no future for real estate in Gangcheng, right?"
Guo Desheng cursed him for being ignorant in his heart, but he was secretly happy.
A layman is good, what he is looking for is layman investment.
If he is an expert, he would be afraid that it would be difficult to fool him.
He began to analyze to Xie Wan that the current situation of the real estate industry in Gangcheng was only temporary, and how optimistic he was about the future of the real estate industry in Gangcheng.
Ultimately, it is because of the port city’s important geographical location and its small land area and large population.
Xie Wan pretended to be convinced by him.
"Mr. Guo, what you said makes me eager to try.
Do you have any good business to recommend to me? "
Guo Desheng was indeed eyeing the huge sum of money that Xie Wan received tonight.
He knew that people in the mainland would not dare to transfer the money back to the mainland.
Then this money will definitely remain in Hong Kong or be transferred overseas.
Due to last year's economic crisis, many companies in Hong Kong are facing a shortage of cash flow.
Even though the company's market value is hundreds of millions, that is only paper wealth. The stocks cannot be sold and the bank cannot lend money. The money that can actually be used is very little. Otherwise, Guo Desheng would not have auctioned off even his collection of antiques.
But in Guo Desheng's judgment, this situation is only temporary.
He expects the port city's economy to recover in a few years.
The real estate industry will rise again.
So now is the best time to stock up land.
What a pity, he doesn’t have that much cash!
Guo Desheng said: "Ms. Xie, the British Hong Kong government will auction several valuable pieces of land next week.
I think some of them have great potential for appreciation.
I wonder if Ms. Xie is interested in investing with me?"
Xie Wan's heart moved.
After hearing what Lao Deng said, the wealthy people in Hong Kong also realized that now is the most cost-effective time to hoard land.
Will competition intensify at next week’s land auction?
Just like the piece of land in Shatin that Xie Wan has her eyes on, although the starting price is only 10 million, will anyone bid up the price like the antique auction tonight?
If someone raises the price, doesn't that mean she has to pay more?
Her antique auction tonight brought in HK$31 million, and after deducting the 10% commission to Christie's, there was still HK$27.9 million left.
She could have acquired several plots of land, but if someone raised the price, she would suffer a loss.
Xie Wan asked: "How does Mr. Guo plan to cooperate with me?"
Guo Desheng had been eyeing Plot No. 1 for a long time. He estimated that if he could buy the land, he could definitely build a landmark building for the port city.
Once the real estate industry recovers, it will be no problem to make a few billion.
But the reserve price for that piece of land is 53 million, and it has been sold at a low price three times.
He received reliable information that the British Hong Kong government intended to reduce the reserve price by 20 percent at the auction next week.
Not only did he know this news, but several of his competitors also knew it.
He had an inside source who revealed that Cheung Kong Holdings had already contacted another rival and the two companies were preparing to jointly invest and bid for the land at the reserve price.
