The 239th chapter is exhaustive
Chapter 239: Make no mistakes
Perhaps it was stimulated by the news that Xiao Ran bought the land, or perhaps it was because the rich all liked this place. In just one week of business, the land transaction volume here was as high as one billion US dollars. Moreover, after this week, the most expensive land had soared to 130,000 US dollars per square meter.
A year later, the most expensive land on Imperial Island was sold at as high as 200,000 US dollars per square meter, surpassing Ginza and becoming the most expensive land place in the world. As expected, at such a land price, Yi Fei could earn back a profit of dozens of times the investment amount by selling the land on Imperial Island alone.
In the first month, the number of tourists on Imperial Island reached 12,000. Don’t underestimate this number. The minimum number of tourists is one million (USD) to start from a wealthy person! In the first month, regardless of land sales, the turnover reached 1 billion US dollars.
One year later, the number of customers in Diwang Island has reached more than 300,000. The number of customers who live in Diwang Island alone is as high as 5,000. The turnover is as high as 60 billion US dollars, including land sales revenue! On average, each person consumes 200,000 US dollars in Daining! Because of the comprehensive success of Daining's investment, Centennium Group's market value soared rapidly with a momentum of faster than helicopters, and it rose from more than 100 billion to 100 billion in a year!
Not only that, it was just a company established by the Phantom three years ago through cooperation in electrical, communications, infrastructure and shipping. A year later, its market value soared at least several times...
What is wealth? Now Yi Fei can tell you that conception and creativity are wealth. Because of the conception of this casino, he and Qi Yuan ranked second and seventh in the Forbes rankings a year later with a net worth of more than 100 billion yuan. Yi Fei became the second richest man in the world only listed under Xiao Ran!
Of course, that happened a year later. Now Yi Fei is checking out what Zhang Haowen left to him. After putting down his burden, Zhang Haowen was even more free and easy, and gave Yi Fei a billion yuan in this way. Of course, that was also lost in the gambling game.
Half of Zhang Haowen's assets are concentrated on Tiger, while the others are Yingge Group and a financial investment fund. Yi Fei had no interest in Yingge's heavy industry group and quickly took the equity off. As for the financial investment fund, it merged with the financial investment company hosted by Wen Jiazhu.
Tiger's side... Yi Fei thought for a long time and finally decided to take Tiger's equity in his hands. He realized the contract with the Situ family, gave Atlantic City to the Situ family, and finally only retained a small part of the industry there.
What made Ning Xiaoyu, the executor, a headache was that Tiger's hotels and resorts eventually decided to sell a considerable portion of them and transfer the remaining part to the Crescent Group. In this way, Tiger only has a casino left, and can focus on operating the casino more attentively!
After Yi Fei checked these industries and decided what to do, he smiled with satisfaction. He looked up and waved to Qi Yuan: "Didn't you insist on revenge on them three years ago? Now, it's still my method to work!"
Qi Yuan curled his lips disdainfully: "You are lucky. If it were me, I wouldn't be so stupid as to bet on your property!"
That being said, Qi Yuan cannot refuse to admit that Yi Fei had prevented more lethal revenge in the past, but now it does play a role. Three years ago, Yi Fei planned to take revenge with all his strength after the pirate attack, but later he thought about it and gave up.
After he was defeated, Qi Yuanzeli took revenge and killed Newton and Zhang Haowen. Yi Fei, the person involved, actually opposed his proposal. His reason was very good. Newton and Zhang Haowen needed to open up the European and American markets for him in a century!
That originated from Yifei's global strategy for Centennium. After laying the foundation for Daining and Macau, it is necessary to ensure that the backyard does not have a fire before entering Europe and the United States with all efforts. In fact, Yifei also does not believe that before Daining opens its business, the Western market will open the door to Centennium Company.
Regardless of the strong resistance from Newton and Zhang Haowen, the resistance from major Western gambling companies alone is enough to drink a pot for a hundred years. In this regard, Macau Entertainment has a deep understanding that it has entered the West. For example, through cooperation, there are not many such cooperation, but the other party is always very careful about Macau Entertainment and does not give Macau Entertainment any room to gain a foothold.
Therefore, if you want to open up the Western market in Bai Nian, you will never rely on the previous methods of making money by Macau Entertainment. However, three or four years ago, Bai Nian's company was quite weak, and its strength and financial resources were far from enough to compete with the Western gambling industry group.
Therefore, Yi Fei had no choice but to temporarily give up his desire for the Western market and work hard to gain stronger strength. Inadequate strength, this is probably the key reason why King He Gambler could never expand to the West back then!
However, giving up temporarily does not mean really giving up. Yi Fei gave up his revenge because he needed Newton and Zhang Haowen to expand for him. That's right, Newton and Zhang Haowen can expand for him. Newton and Zhang Haowen can gain a foothold through acquisition, and it's also possible for a hundred years.
Three years ago, Yi Fei calmly stopped all deeper revenge. He needed to give Newton and Zhang Haowen time to expand. But he was not afraid that the strength of the two rivals would increase faster than him, not only because of three-dimensional technology and Dai Ning investment, but also because Newton and Zhang Haowen lacked better business strategies and did not have business management talents like Ning Xiaoyu and Qi Yuan.
This is Yi Fei's advantage. He knew very well that with this advantage, the longer the time would be, the more beneficial it would be to him. Three years was enough for him to splash water like a hundred years of operation, and he could gain stronger strength with the full operation of Dai Ning Investment. At this time, as long as Yi Fei acquired one of Newton or Zhang Haowen's careers, it would mean that he would truly open up the Western market.
The previous Gambling King and Australian Entertainment had no money to acquire, Yi Fei had it. More than three years ago, Fei Yuan and Centennium combined, the assets were only more than one billion. More than three years later, Fei Yuan and Centennium combined, the total assets were 60 to 70 billion, which is the advantages and benefits that time brought to Yi Fei.
Yi Fei wisely restrained his desire for revenge, gave himself, and gave him plenty of time. Now, he successfully made a breakthrough with Zhang Haowen. With Tiger's strength, the Western gambling industry group is unstoppable.
This is the most fundamental reason why Yi Fei is forbearing. Sometimes, it is not necessary to rush stupidly to succeed. If Yi Fei retaliated three or four years ago, even if he killed Newton and Zhang Haowen, it would be useless. In the end, it would take more time to seek breakthroughs in a century. Even if Dai Ning succeeds, it may stagnate in Asia and cannot extend his career from the world.
But now, it has successfully broken through the original barrier in a century. Once it has entered the European and American markets with strong strength, it has also solved the opponent Zhang Haowen. Isn’t this a kill of two birds with one stone better than the violent revenge three years ago!
"Many things cannot be described as simple luck!" Yi Fei was in a good mood and couldn't help but joke, but unexpectedly found a disk in the file bag, stuffed it into the computer and browsed it. He couldn't help laughing again.
There are the forces Zhang Haowen cultivated in Atlantic City and all over Europe, which means that they are all handed over to Yi Fei. However, Yi Fei still attaches much importance to other content, and Zhang Haowen is a spy from Centennial Company and Platinum Group!
Zhang Haowen obviously has a little better business and understands the importance of business, so the choice of undercover agents has nothing to do with gambling. This made Yi Fei sweat a lot. He only knew that there was at least one spy who was about to enter the core of the company, but he did not expect that Zhang Haowen's man was actually quite high in a century.
Looking at the information on the computer screen, Qi Yuan slapped the table fiercely: "Damn, there are spies, I will fire him when I turn around! But now Newton is left, what are you going to do?"
"What do you think he can do, what do you think I will do?" Yi Fei smiled strangely, pointed to the name undercover in the platinum in the picture, and smiled meaningfully: "Some people cannot be let go, maybe before this, I have to express it..."
Naturally, the grand occasion of the three islands of Dai Ning was not mentioned. Yi Fei quickly asked the Gambling Association for a meeting, with a very tough attitude. This time the meeting address was strangely chosen by Yi Fei to Bilin Island, which has no business yet!
When it comes to Bilin Island, Yi Fei wants to laugh. Bilin Island is very clear in planning. Currently, there are only 120 living wooden houses, which means that at the same time, only 120 guests will be accepted. Therefore, the housing prices here are even far higher than the land prices on Diwang Island.
Moreover, among the 120 wooden houses, eighty of them will not be sold. Only forty units are allowed to be sold, and the price is ridiculously high. Those whose identity and status have not reached the peak or are not qualified. Moreover, the only rights to use the wooden houses are sold, based on years.
Currently, only one wooden house has a two-year use right of 20 million US dollars, and the one who bought it was a European noble. In fact, these 20 million are just the starting price and discount price. Some people say that there is no such environment? As for spending 20 million?
However, Yifei sold not only the right to use the wooden house, but also the service, which is absolutely comprehensive. More importantly, Yifei sold is a symbol of taste, identity and status. Like Emperor Island, the staff of Bilin Island do not live here and have their own boats to pick them up and drop them off every day.
The conference city was in the open space in front of the wooden houses. The heads of major gambling groups were observing this paradise on earth. When the accompanying people told them the price of the wooden houses here, everyone was shocked, except Newton.
According to the heads of major gambling groups, Yi Fei is definitely a bad-hearted businessman. The cost of building a wooden house is far less than ten million yuan. Just using the right to use, Yi Fei dares to sell it so expensive. So what is it not bad-hearted? However, they still have to admit that if they can live here for a year or two, they can at least live for a few more years.
In an environment with green leaves, the scent of birds and flowers made people unconsciously relax. Everyone gathered around the round table in the open space, Yi Fei appeared on the green grass, and Peng Feng and Mo Jia appeared with him!
Yi Fei glanced at everyone with a smile, with a majestic look in his eyes: "Everyone is really appreciating! Everyone is here, that's great! Let's start the meeting."
Chery, the former former chairman of the Gambling Association, glanced at Yi Fei helplessly, and had to stand up and cough a few times at other dazed people before saying embarrassedly: "Mr. Yi, why don't you invite Mr. Zhang Haowen and Mr. Zhang to come out to preside over the presidency?"
Yi Fei glanced at the extremely awkward people and said in surprise: "Mr. Zhang has lost everything. Do you think he is still qualified to be here? In fact, I think he has quit this position!"
Chery was even more embarrassed and wanted to leave here immediately. He rubbed his hands with a smile: "Mr. Zhang did call and said he wanted to resign, but we thought he would come in person! It would be better to do this. Today's purpose is to select a new chairman!"
The sound of tsk tsk continued to come from Yi Fei's mouth, which was particularly clear in this empty place. He was full of disdain and regret: "I just lost everything, and I'm so anxious to choose again. Isn't it too unhumane!"
Before anyone else could express anything, Yi Fei leaned on the chair and shrugged, looking at everyone leisurely: "But, since everyone thinks so, then choose again. I think this position should not be empty!"
Newton and Sauron looked at each other, but said nothing, just kept silent. In the end, only Chery spoke first: "Since that's the case, everyone will propose the new chairman candidate in their minds and let everyone vote!"
Yi Fei was just silent, but he kept sneering in his stomach. Gambling Association, Gambling Association is nothing. However, he knew very well that he still did not have enough influence now, and if he wanted to sit in this position, he would definitely be opposed by everyone, unless his strength was so strong that no one dared to object!
This time, there are many different opinions. Some propose Caesar's chairman, some propose platinum, and some simply nominate themselves. Anyway, there is little hope of becoming a person! At this time, a very familiar voice sounded: "I propose to the chairman of the board of Platinum Group..."
Chapter completed!
