Shen Dong pondered for a moment and said, "Old Tang, apart from the Bihai Nightclub, I'd like to convert all the other nightclubs, KTVs, and dance halls into restaurants. What do you think?"
Tang Peijun said, "I heard from Brother Ma that because we don't do those kinds of shady things, business in these places isn't very good, and some nightclubs are even losing money. Turning them into restaurants isn't out of the question, but the renovation costs alone would be a lot of money, and the most crucial thing is to find someone who knows how to run a restaurant to manage it."
Shen Dong nodded and said, "I want Achan to take responsibility."
Tang Peijun said, "I have to admit that Achan is indeed very talented in this area, but what about Brother Ma?"
Shen Dong said, "Transfer Little Ma out to be the CEO of Tengfei Beverage Company."
Tang Peijun smiled and said, "Brother Dong, it seems you have a high opinion of Tengfei Beverage Company."
A glint of light flashed in Shen Dong's eyes as he said, "My goal is to transform Tengfei Beverage Company into the Coca-Cola of the East. Although its name includes the word 'beverage,' its product range is extremely broad, including Tengfei Cola, Tengfei Milk, Tengfei Juice, Tengfei Mineral Water, and so on. In five years, its market value must reach over HK$100 billion. If it fails to do so, I'll send Xiao Ma home to take care of his children."
Tang Peijun exclaimed, "Five years? Hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars? Brother Dong, you're not kidding, are you?"
Shen Dong said, "This is nothing. I want to build Tengfei Beverage Company into the largest beverage production group in the future of Xia Kingdom, with a target market value of one trillion Hong Kong dollars."
Looking ahead, Wahaha, Nongfu Spring, Mengniu Group, and Yili Group are all beverage companies with market capitalizations exceeding 200 billion yuan.
With its first-mover advantage, ample funds, and high-quality formula, Shen Dong has a strong foundation. As long as management is sound, building a trillion-dollar enterprise is not a difficult task.
Although Brother Ma is usually a bit unreliable, he is very serious about his work, as can be seen from his management of the Bihai Nightclub.
Shen Dong can rest assured that he can hand over Tengfei Beverage Company to him.
At this moment, Tang Peijun was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
It's simply unbelievable that a company could be built into a trillion-dollar conglomerate by selling cola, juice, milk, and mineral water.
If anyone else had said such a thing, Tang Peijun would have already spit in their face.
But when Shen Dong said it, Tang Peijun found that he didn't have the slightest doubt.
Shen Dong patted Tang Peijun on the shoulder and said, "Do you know what positioning I've given to our Tengfei Real Estate Company?"
Before Tang Peijun could speak, Shen Dong said, "One hundred billion Hong Kong dollars. I hope that Tengfei Real Estate Company can reach one hundred billion Hong Kong dollars just by collecting rent."
"Gulp"
Tang Peijun swallowed hard and said, "Is that possible?"
Shen Dong laughed and said, "Why is it impossible? Old Tang, I made a prediction before. After Hong Kong Island develops for another ten years, the real estate industry will reach a peak and then it will definitely crash. As long as we sell all the properties before the crash, and then buy as many properties as possible at super low prices after the crash, one sale and one purchase will be enough to make us the number one real estate company in Asia."
"In addition, I also want to acquire land in key locations in various first- and second-tier cities in the inland areas and build super high-rise commercial buildings. In this way, we may be able to achieve an annual rental income of 100 billion yuan in 20 years."
Tang Peijun said, "This will require a lot of money."
Shen Dong laughed and said, "Just like Yantian Port, as long as I can come up with 10 billion US dollars to build several super commercial buildings in Yandu, Shanghai and other places, and then use them as collateral, we can continue to expand outwards in this way. At that time, with the development of the inland economy, the rent of these buildings will become more and more expensive. In less than ten years, we will be able to pay off the loan. At that time, the market value of Tengfei Real Estate Company will be at least more than 3 trillion Hong Kong dollars."
Tang Peijun slapped his forehead and said, "Brother Dong, let's forget it. The pie in the sky you're painting is too big for me to digest all at once."
Shen Dong said, "Then let's digest it slowly. Old Tang, mortgage all the assets to the bank. I need a lot of cash right now."
Tang Peijun was taken aback and asked, "Brother Dong, what are you going to do?"
Shen Dong said, "Buy US stock. Old Tang, I've spent all the money I brought from the US due to recent investments. These past few days, I've been researching Cole Networks in the US and found it has the potential for a big surge. I plan to use this money to buy Cole Networks stock in large quantities."
In its previous life, Cole Networks was not well-known, but it was the most dazzling stock after the stock market crash, known as the most bullish speculative stock.
In just one month, Cole Networks' stock price tripled, which was absolutely astonishing.
As a top stock market expert, Shen Dong conducted extensive analysis of Cole Networks and found that it indeed had the potential for a significant price increase.
Song Zihao's 10 billion US dollars are intended for long-term investments, and Shen Dong doesn't want to use them.
So he planned to mortgage all his assets and then start Dorco Networks.
A month later, they sold Cole Networks and made a huge profit from it.
Tang Peijun asked, "Brother Dong, how confident are you?"
Shen Dong smiled and said, "One hundred percent."
Tang Peijun said, "Our Tengfei Real Estate Company can provide mortgage loans of approximately 500 million US dollars."
Shen Dong said, "We don't need that much. A loan of 300 million US dollars will suffice. Cole Networks itself doesn't have a high market value. If we make any big moves, it could easily run into problems."
Cole Networks' market value has now fallen to $2.432 billion. If Shen Dong were to invest directly with ten times leverage, it would immediately cause huge fluctuations.
It's possible that some large conglomerates will come after him and try to take his money.
Therefore, Shen Dong must operate with extreme caution, and three hundred million US dollars is the maximum limit.
Tang Peijun said, "I'll go to the bank to process the loan application right away."
Shen Dong patted Tang Peijun on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. In a month, I will turn this 300 million US dollars into at least 2 billion US dollars."
Banks really appreciate high-quality clients like Tengfei Real Estate Company.
Within just one hour, the two parties signed the loan agreement.
Soon, three hundred million US dollars entered Shen Dong's account.
Repulse Bay No. 1 Villa
Li Ka-shing's face turned ashen. He said, "Haven't we caught them yet?"
This afternoon, Li Ka-shing got off work.
The driver drove the Rolls-Royce out of the underground parking lot.
Just as they were about to reach it, the car suddenly exploded.
The driver who had driven for Li Ka-shing for ten years was blown to pieces on the spot.
Even with Li Ka-shing's composure, he couldn't help but turn pale with fright.
His bodyguards quickly protected him.
