The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 333 Project Cooperation
In the evening, Li Jianhui, the chairman and president of Xinjian Group, and Luo Minjun, the central bank governors of several ASEAN countries and the president of Nanlong Holdings, signed the ASEAN Development Bank investment agreement.

Among them, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Indonesia each invested 10 million US dollars, accounting for 4% of the shares, Brunei invested 16 million US dollars, accounting for 20% of the shares, Nanlong Holdings invested [-] million US dollars, accounting for [-]% of the shares, Sin Chew, Xinjian Each invested one billion US dollars and each accounted for [-]% of the shares.

After repeated negotiations between several parties, the headquarters of the ASEAN Development Bank was located in Singapore, and the first president was Li Zaiwei, vice president of Xinjian Group.

At the meeting, everyone also stipulated the main business direction of the bank. The ASEAN Development Bank is different from ordinary commercial banks. This bank serves more for the development of ASEAN member states.

Therefore, the business is more inclined to loans for ASEAN infrastructure, especially highways, airports, ports, schools, hospitals, etc.

As for enterprise development loans, commercial banks mainly rely on commercial banks, and the ASEAN Development Bank does not have much funds, so it is impossible to take care of all aspects.

The main theme of the forum on the second day was cooperation, especially the bilateral cooperation between Heung Kong and ASEAN companies.

Xiangjiang Airlines has signed a number of cooperation agreements with Sin Chew Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Indonesian Airlines, Thai Airways and Philippine Airlines.

Many of them were created by Li Jianhui based on several major airline alliances in his previous life, and the name of this cooperation is the name of a famous airline alliance in his previous life-Star Alliance.

As for Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific and Kowloon Airlines, Li Jianhui didn’t intend to play with each other. After all, these two companies and Hong Kong Airlines are direct competitors. It is enough for the Star Alliance to have a large airline in a country or region.

This time, Li Jianhui, the headquarters of the Star Alliance, is directly placed in Xiangjiang, and China Airlines, Korean Air, British Airways, Lufthansa, Air Canada, etc. will be invited to join in the future.

Of course, today is not just this cooperation. The three major Hong Kong exchanges and Sin Chew Exchange have reached a cooperation agreement. Listed companies on both exchanges can conduct secondary listings on the other exchange.

Huangpu Shipping Group invested one billion U.S. dollars in Malaysia to establish the Huangpu Shipyard. The construction period is five years. After completion, Huangpu Shipping Group will have the ability to independently build cargo ships with a load of hundreds of thousands of tons.

Yushi Group and the Malay government reached a cooperation agreement to jointly establish a Penang automobile manufacturing company, in which the Malay government holds 51% of the shares and Yushi Group holds 49% of the shares. The company's first car is named Penang Lion.

Lane Crawford has reached a rice procurement agreement with the Thai government, and Thai rice will become the main supplier of Lane Crawford's rice products.

Amoy Beverage Company has also reached a cooperation agreement with the Bangkok government, and will invest [-] million Hong Kong dollars in Bangkok to establish Amoy Beverage Production Company.

……

Today, not only the Xinjian Department has reached a number of cooperation agreements with ASEAN countries and enterprises, but also IMC Group, Wharf, Jardine Group, Swire Group, etc., have also reached cooperation agreements with governments and enterprises of many ASEAN countries.

The ASEAN-Hong Kong Economic Cooperation Forum can be said to have achieved a good start, and the first session was quite successful.

The second session will be held in Xiangjiang in April next year. I believe that with the increase of cooperation between the two sides, the economies of the two sides will become closer and closer, and more and more ASEAN companies will come to Xiangjiang to list, and even put their headquarters in Xiangjiang. .

At the conclusion of the conference, ASEAN Secretary-General Narciso Reyes delivered a closing speech.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate the complete success of the ASEAN-Xiangjiang Economic Cooperation Forum, and thank all the guests who came to attend and those who served the forum.

ASEAN has not been established for a long time, but our member states all share the same goal, that is, peace, stability, prosperity, and prosperity.

To achieve this, the most important thing is economic development. Only when the economy is good can the people live and work in peace and contentment and internal stability can be achieved.

Only when the economy is good can the overall national strength of the country be improved, and the government will have more funds to invest in national defense to better safeguard the peace and stability of the country.

If we want to achieve good economic development, it is not enough to rely solely on the inside of ASEAN. We also need to bravely open the door to allow outside capital to come in and our products to go out.

A new round of technological revolution has begun. This time, we in Asia and ASEAN will no longer be absent.

ASEAN and Xiangjiang are separated by a narrow strip of water. Let us work together to create a prosperous and beautiful future.

......"

After the meeting, as the leader of the Xiangjiang business community, Li Jianhui also attended the press conference.

As Li Jianhui's assistant, Su Jiangting said after Li Jianhui's personal press conference was quiet, "Due to time constraints, today's press conference will be held for half an hour. I hope all reporters can prepare questions in advance.

The main content of today's press conference is the ASEAN-Xiangjiang Economic Cooperation Forum. Please don't mention anything that is not related to it.

Let's start the questioning session, please ask the lady who is the second from the left in the first row. "

After standing up and taking the microphone handed over by the staff, the lady said: "Li Sheng, I am a reporter from TVB. During this cooperation forum, the Xinjian Department and ASEAN reached a number of cooperation agreements. Among them, the project investment This piece exceeds tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, has the Xinjian Department shifted to the ASEAN market because of the current situation in Hong Kong?"

Li Jianhui did not expect the first question to be so difficult, and a bad answer to this question may bring great negative impact and loss to the Xinjian Department.

After pondering for a few seconds, he responded with a smile: "No matter in the past, now or in the future, our Xinjian Department will always take root in Xiangjiang, and our center of gravity will also be in Xiangjiang.

The cooperation with ASEAN this time is nothing but the development of the ASEAN market by Xinjian's enterprises, and the mutual benefit and win-win cooperation with the ASEAN economy.

Anyone who understands the investment of our Xinjian industry in Xiangjiang knows that although the funds for cooperation with ASEAN this time are indeed relatively large, it is still far behind our investment in Xiangjiang.

Our Xiangjiang enterprises invest abroad for the better development of our own enterprises, which is no different from a few years ago. We, Hongkong media, please don't look at it with a special perspective. "

Su Jiangting didn't give the reporter another chance to ask questions. As soon as Li Jianhui finished speaking, she immediately said, "Please ask the fourth man from the right in the first row."

"Mr. Li, I'm a reporter from the Kuala Lumpur Daily News. In this forum, we saw that the Xinjian Department had many cooperations with our Malays, such as automobile manufacturing, shipyards, etc. I don't know what made Xinjian The cooperation between the Department of Establishment and ASEAN will focus on Malay?"

"For hundreds of years, Malay has been the center of Chinese activities in Southeast Asia. The two sides have become closer in culture and customs. This is the main reason why we focus our cooperation on Malay."

For Li Jianhui’s response, these reporters are actually not very satisfied. If you want to say that the culture and customs are similar, how can Malay compare with Sin Chew? You must know that Sin Chew is the second hometown of Chinese in Southeast Asia, and more than 90% of them are Chinese. .

However, the Xinjian Department includes the entire Xiangjiang enterprise, and very few cooperate with the Sin Chew government and enterprises.
