Mitsui Tousaburo, the middleman, had no choice but to step in.
He personally went to Hong Kong to meet with Xing Baohua.
Xing Baohua deliberately avoided him, pretending to be busy.
Indeed, he's very busy. This is Huahong Group discussing the land in Victoria with its shareholders.
Xing Baohua also went to the site to see it; it's surrounded by the sea on two sides, and the scenery is simply stunning.
Standing on the office floor, looking out at the sea and the high-rise buildings on Hong Kong Island, I felt a unique sense of comfort.
The buildings here were built a few years ago, and they're all around twenty stories high. It's a shame to demolish them; you can see the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, which looks like a sea turtle, across the street.
That's also a landmark building.
The desire to build a luxurious, international landmark reminded Xing Baohua of swimming at the Golden Sands Hotel in Singapore.
Yes, we'll do it that way.
It becomes the only place in the world where you can swim high in the air, with a view of the entire Victoria Harbour and overlooking Hong Kong Island.
When Xing Baohua met with the shareholders, he outlined the funding plan and even sketched out a simple outline of the building.
They say swimming in it would be so much fun!
Do the young shareholders here feel that Xing Baohua is either crazy or has something wrong with his brain?
Who would dare to think of such a wildly imaginative idea?
The key issue is the construction cost!
Can current technology meet this standard? If the swimming pool is too small, it won't work. If it's built to be large, how many tons of water will be needed? Can the structure support it?
Don't turn a world-class landmark into a world-class disaster!
That's a waste of five or six hundred billion; all of them will lose it all.
Everyone advised Xing Baohua not to do that, but to do it in a conventional way. At worst, it would just look a little better than the Empire State Building or the Twin Towers.
Even square shapes aren't bad-looking.
“I said, let’s do it right. This is such a good location, no need to waste it! Listen to me, in the meantime, find a few well-known design companies and see who can design it.”
"It will be challenging, but I don't think it will be a big problem," Xing Baohua said, gently patting the table.
Well, this guy's stubbornness is at it again; he won't listen to advice and won't change his mind. Alright, the group doesn't have much money on hand, and most of it will have to be funded by Xing Baohua.
And just like that, Xing Baohua made the final decision on the plan.
Three days later, Xing Baohua met Mitsui Fujisaburo, who brought a bag of golf clubs with him.
Xing Baohua's gift was actually a subordinate's gift to the other party.
“Mr. Xing, Nissan would like to come and continue our discussion about the GTR,” Mitsui Fujisaburo said respectfully.
"In a few months! I'm short on cash lately. See? I'm going to build a building, with a total investment of around 10 billion US dollars. Also, my sports car has passed wind tunnel testing in West Germany. After that, we can start mass production." Xing Baohua deliberately pointed to the building sketch he had drawn on the table as he spoke.
Mitsui Tousaburo gave an awkward laugh.
"Congratulations, Mr. Xing, on finding several new ways to make money. I'll definitely buy one of your sports cars to collect. Mr. Xing, do you have any requests to convey to Nissan?"
"The cars he sells are too expensive. I'd have to make three billion dollars off them before I could buy one! Don't you think so, Mitsui?"
“Mr. Xing, as the old saying goes, harmony brings wealth. Your suppression of Nissan will only lead to a lose-lose situation. Why don’t we both calm down and have a peaceful discussion?” Mitsui earnestly advised.
"Price, the price Nissan quoted me, that's what I care about."
