Lee Shau Kee’s Classic Quotations on Business Chapter 1
From having 1,000 yuan in his pocket to becoming a billionaire, Lee Shau Kee’s business operations are undoubtedly very successful. This article focuses on his business methods.
Lee Shau Kee’s ideals, drive and passion are the foundation of his business success, and his ambition is not only rooted in his naturally diligent and persevering personality, but also relies on the rare and rich experience he inherited when he was young.
His business success is due to many factors, such as innate personality, nurturing environment, grasp of opportunity and fate, keen business acumen and accurate numerical calculation ability. The most important thing in real estate is prediction. Ability and discernment.
Lee Shau Kee believes that the most important thing in real estate is the ability to predict and identify. Buying land is like buying a shirt. If you buy it cheaply and wear it for a long time, it means you have good vision and the purchase is worthwhile. Everyone goes to buy land together, who knows the goods and who doesn't, whether they have the materials or not, we will know in a few years. In short, investment is like a touchstone that can distinguish between high and low. Knowing everything clearly is the most successful state.
No matter when or where goods are to be sold well, they must be packaged well.
In 1942, all creditworthy banks issued temporary receipts (equivalent to modern bank checks) for large amounts. Because of the reputation of Yongsheng Bank, customers can bring gold, valuable goods or foreign currencies from various countries and sell them to Yongsheng Bank in exchange for a receipt. This receipt can be cashed at any time, or can be circulated in the market as banknotes and used to purchase goods. As soon as the opponent sees that it is issued by a reputable bank account, he is happy to use it. This early gift certificate and check was generally welcomed by casual users. The Eternal Life Bank has a good reputation. The issuance of these large-amount receipts means that there is a large amount of cash flow without interest. It can also be used as capital investment to buy gold, silver dollars, foreign currencies and various useful materials.
However, it soon attracted the attention of the Japanese and puppet government, which intervened. It was considered an illegal act and the bank was about to be fined and closed down. Some bureaucrats are making a fuss out of a molehill and using all kinds of despicable means to extort money. The waiters in the shop were so frightened that their faces turned pale. However, Lee Shau-kee, who was only a teenager at the time, smiled calmly and comforted the shop clerk, saying: Even gangsters with guns are blinded by money. In peaceful and prosperous times, people seek wealth but not anger, let alone in troubled times? Sure enough, later, after Lee Shau Kee's father went around and found an uncle from his hometown who had contacts with the puppet government, he took the initiative to suggest paying fines and taxes to the government, and finally the big problem was reduced to nothing. This incident reflects that Lee Shau Kee had a vision of the world beyond ordinary people at a very young age.
If you persist in business discussions until the last minute, things may turn out to be brighter.
Lee Shau Kee’s Classic Quotations on Business Chapter 2
Lee Shau Kee initially specialized in land buyers in his company. One day, he heard news in the market that he knew the owner of the old Regent Building in Queen’s Road Central. Interested in selling the land. Lee Shau Kee never let go of properties in prime locations, so he immediately went out to investigate who the owner was. It was found out that the property was owned by Zheng Zongshu. Unfortunately, it was reported that Zheng Zongshu had verbally agreed to sell the property to someone else for a price of 11 million yuan. When Lee Shau Kee heard that the price was 11 million yuan, he could get such a high-quality property, and he was very reluctant to give up. So he asked: Who is familiar with Zheng Zongshu? No one on the left or right could answer. Lee Shau Kee's staff reminded him: I heard that the property sales contract will be signed at the law firm tomorrow. Lee Shau Kee nodded immediately and said: Well, that means I still have time tonight. Then he quickly found out that He Tingxi and Zheng Zongshu were familiar with each other. Even though it was already early in the morning, Lee Shau Kee still picked up the phone and shook it to Ho Ting Sik, explaining his purpose to him. Lee Shau Kee always kept his words short: Please, within the scope of 13 million yuan, you can make the decision for me. Every penny of your commission will be yours. You're welcome. The next day, He Tingxi found Zheng Zongshu and asked if the transaction price was 11 million yuan. So He Tingxi only persuaded the other party to resell the property to Lee Shau Kee with a new selling price of 12 million yuan. This is really a success and everyone is happy.
A successful businessman should be able to foresee bright prospects during economic downturns.
Lee Shau Kee’s business principles and skills are really unique and unique.
His superior skill lies in his concentration. Not only does his appearance remain unchanged despite the collapse of Mount Tai, but he also still has the leisure to plan for the future and pay attention to opportunities in the face of adversity. In 1974, when Hong Kong people had no confidence in real estate, Lee Shau Kee was preparing to make great achievements in real estate development. This is by no means an emotion on his part, but he has quietly observed that inflation is quite severe. Sooner or later, this will stimulate the public's desire to buy property to preserve value, and a recovery in the real estate industry is expected.
Lee Shau Kee believes that as long as there are one or two large-scale infrastructure projects in Hong Kong to boost the social economy, the prospects will immediately appear bright. The subsequent development of the actual situation was exactly as expected.
No one can predict the future with complete accuracy.
In 1975, the Hong Kong government announced a tender for the reclamation construction of Sha Tin. Lee Shau Kee believed that winning the rights to the reclaimed land in Sha Tin and developing Sha Tin City One would bring immeasurable profits in the future, so he made up his mind to win this project. Consider it a golden opportunity in the real estate market. Reclamation costs are high, so Lee Zhao-kee sincerely invites other powerful Chinese real estate developers in Hong Kong to join hands in development. As a result, the shareholders of the Shatin City One project were New World, Cheung Kong Holdings, Sun Hung Kai Properties, etc., each holding 1/4 of the shares. Lee Shau Kee's Henderson Land Development served as the coordinator of the entire project. The site was awarded to the government at a price of more than NT$20 million. The bid was successful, and the profit later increased by more than 1,000 times.
Afterwards, Lee Shau-kee said humorously: If I had known this, any company that independently undertook the construction would be able to do nothing today.
Lee Shau Kee’s Classic Quotations on Business Chapter 3
A small business is afraid of food but not interest; a big business is afraid of interest but not food.
This is a famous saying of Lee Shau Kee in the business world. For Lee Shau Kee, he firmly believed that doing business requires diligence, and he disliked spending time and money on entertaining guests. As for doing big business, the most important thing is to count accurately, the transaction volume is large, the costs and profits involved are large, and the interest of one cent more and one cent less is very important. Therefore, Lee Shau Kee solemnly explained to his colleagues that between 1982 and 1984, one of the preferential conditions for buyers specially designed to promote buildings was to obtain loans from Henderson. These installment loan businesses were a temporary measure because the funds were accumulated in the loans. Above that, the interest earned is very little, and if the funds are used for business, there is an opportunity to double the harvest in three or four years, and the profit gap is too big. Especially in 1986, when bank interest rates were low, loans to customers should be transferred to banks as soon as possible.
A successful businessman cannot change careers easily.
In 1987, the Board of Directors of the Bank of East Asia, represented by Li Guobao, solemnly invited Lee Shau Kee to join the Board of Directors of the Bank of East Asia as a director. As a bank director, Lee Shau Kee's status in Hong Kong's corporate world has reached a higher level. Of course, he is by no means a vain person. He has always been serious in dealing with things. Since he took on the title of bank director, he has been very active in paying attention to the banking business in Hong Kong. He often asks bankers who are familiar with him such as He Tian and Liao Lie. Zhi, Wen Chaoyuan and others asked for advice in order to have a better understanding of Hong Kong banking business and put forward constructive opinions to the Bank of East Asia. When Wen Chaoyuan saw that Lee Shau Kee had joined the board of directors of the Bank of East Asia, he humored him and said: Don't you just become a banker and plan to acquire a bank! Lee Shau Kee also said the above words with a smile.
Since smart and cautious businessmen know that a storm is coming, when the economy is overheating and speculation is too strong, they should carefully study the overall market trend, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and when it is time to ship, Do not hesitate to ship.
In the second half of 1987, Hong Kong's economy was overheating. The average residential property price on Hong Kong Island had exceeded NT$1,000 per square foot. The stock market was rising rapidly. Most market participants were excited. Only Lee Shau-kee felt that the social economy would improve. There are hidden worries. He and Lin Gaoyan have been carefully studying the overall market trend since September. When Lin Gaoyan reported the trend of foreign securities, the phenomenon of economic overheating and the excessive speculation in the stock market at that time, Li Shauji already knew what was going on. From this incident, he also admired Lin Gaoyan's keen vision and careful mind. On that day, he issued instructions to Lin Gaoyan: Since smart and cautious people know that a storm is coming, it is best to sell goods at this time to avoid running away. Don't forget that the Hang Seng Index futures have a dragging effect on the market, which can be large or small. Sure enough, on October 19, Hong Kong was affected by the sharp decline in US stocks. The Hang Seng Index plunged 420.00 points from 3783.20 on the previous trading day to 3363.2, which was the largest drop in the 23 years since the Hang Seng Index was founded. The next day, the Stock Exchange announced a four-day suspension.
The day the stock market reopened was the 26th. The Hang Seng Index still plunged 1,120,00 points in one day to 2,241.69, the largest one-day drop in history. Shares fell by an average of 30}6. The market is indeed in a state of turmoil after this severe market crash. And because of Lee Shau-kee's foresight and foresight in times of peace, Henderson's losses were very small.
The success of a businessman lies in his unique vision and analytical judgment.
Chapter 4 of Lee Shau Kee’s Classic Quotations on Business
The economic crisis in the second half of 1987 dealt a heavy blow to the market, and there was a sudden uproar. But Lee Shau Kee has his own unique analysis: there is still room for real estate growth in recent years. Because Hong Kong stocks fell by 50% and buildings only fell by 10%, it can be seen that the carrying capacity of real estate still exists. If calculated based on the current housing prices and rental values ??in Hong Kong, the annual income can be 8 to 9%, which is better than overseas New York and Tokyo. Therefore, Lee Shau Kee is still optimistic about the future of Hong Kong real estate.
The success or failure of business lies in making decisions before taking action. You must buy low and sell high. You must not blindly follow the trend, nor be impulsive and reckless.
Although the economic crisis in 1987 dealt a heavy blow to Hong Kong's economy, Lee Shau-kee analyzed that there is still room for growth in Hong Kong's real estate.
However, because stocks have fallen too much and property prices have not fallen enough, it is likely that we will have to wait and see for a period of time to allow the prices of land and raw materials to fall to the bottom before it is too late to buy goods. At the end of 1987 and the beginning of 1988, Lee Shau Kee estimated that 1/3 of the land approved by the government would belong to Henderson Land based on the land exchange rights and interests in his hand. After one year, the total land should be 4 million square feet. of floor area available for development. Therefore, there is no rush to buy raw material land again. His business attitude of being cautious about buying goods but always keeping an eye out for opportunities led him to spend NT$358 million to buy a large number of land exchange rights deeds at a very cheap price in May 1988. A year ago, Lee Shau-kee, who was still worried about the increasing price of land and raw materials and did not know how to buy goods, actually benefited from the stock market storm in October 1987 and bought a batch of flat goods. This incident also made Li Shauji understand the principle of divination.
Although business is a numbers game, it is hard to make a meal without rice, and you must have the health and excellence of various numbers in your hands to make good-looking tricks.
If you want to be rich, you must first become a little rich. It is a wise saying that a small fortune comes from frugality, because the first fortune is the most important. With it as a stepping stone, it is easy to succeed if you make money. The capital to get rich should come from diligence and frugality. The so-called wealth is determined by nature, which does not mean leaving oneself to fate, but means following the right time and place, and it must not be forced. Wealth comes with cause and effect, origin, fate, and blessings. Once you do something you know you can't do, forcing yourself to do it will sooner or later lead to failure.
During the Spring Festival of 1997, Liang Fengyi asked how to successfully use money. , Lee Shau Kee gave the above answer.
Technology and industry are the two major elements that contemporary enterprises should focus on for development.
In post-World War II Hong Kong, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and many powerful people, Lee Shau Kee was not the only Hong Kong rich man. However, in the handling of some incidents, Lee Shau Kee naturally established an outstanding reputation. In 1978, Lee Siu-kee himself and his partners represented by him assisted in the demolition of Pei Qiao Middle School, which was a good story that people in the society talked about. There is an old villa on the hillside of Happy Valley (where the Beverly Hills mansion is now), which was the site of Pei Chiu Secondary School at that time. The owner of the villa is the Jian family, and countless real estate developers have asked if they are willing to sell it. However, after in-depth research, they all looked at the door and sighed, and returned in vain. It’s not that the owners are unwilling to sell, but that the real estate developers are afraid to buy. The reason is not that the asking price is high, but that the procedures are complicated, and in the end it is very likely that the property will be useless. Anyone who plans to rent this Jane's villa as a school building for Pei Chiu Secondary School must pass three extremely difficult hurdles. First, the villas with more than 200,000 square feet have been designated by the government as school land. If this land is to be converted into residential use, the Hong Kong Governor must review the reasons for the change of use in conjunction with the Executive Council and approve it. Secondly, the original villa was only three floors. If a residence with dozens of floors is to be built, the government may not approve it.
Third, the owner of the villa, the Jian family, has a will that stipulates that the villa cannot be sold for generations to come and can only be rented or used for self-use. These three hurdles scare many real estate developers, but they do not scare Lee Shau Kee. He has always believed that where there is a will, everything can be done. He used his brains that others refused to use, successfully passed the three hurdles, and spent more than 20 million yuan to build the project. Peiqiao Middle School built a once-and-for-all school site. As a result, he, the Chien family, and Peiqiao Middle School all benefited, and everyone was happy.

Lee Shau Kee's classic sayings Society Chapter 1
When you are developed, you will never forget your homeland and wealth. Never forget patriotism. For decades, Lee Shau-kee has consistently supported Jiatuo’s education, been enthusiastic about public welfare activities, and cared about the construction of the mainland of the motherland. Taking from the society and giving back to the society has always been Lee Shau Kee's wish. This article mainly introduces Lee Shau Kee’s various social welfare activities.
Young people should be given some inspiration and encouraged to work hard and create a better tomorrow.
In August 1997, Lee Shau-kee wrote the following: Hong Kong finally returned to the motherland after being away from the motherland for 150 years. Looking back, I have come to Hong Kong for 50 years of development, during which I held With consistent and full confidence, I have continuously invested and operated in Hong Kong, thus taking advantage of Hong Kong's favorable timing and location, and today I am the richest man in Hong Kong. I am ashamed of being mediocre, but I feel really lucky to receive this honor. Earlier this year, Mr. Joe Lee, chairman of Hong Kong United Publishing Group, and Hong Kong writer Dr. Leung Fung-yee strongly encouraged me to write a biography of my past deeds and publicize them. After careful consideration, I agreed to assist them and publish the biography in time to celebrate the return of Hong Kong. This way I can not only witness some historical events in Hong Kong, but also receive the following benefits. First, to deepen international investors’ understanding of Hong Kong and let them understand that Hong Kong is an excellent investment place; second, because Hong Kong people have lost good opportunities for career development and wealth appreciation in Hong Kong due to immigration, they can do so after 1997. Today I am considering returning home again; thirdly, it proves that as long as Hong Kong people work hard, it is possible to succeed in their careers; fourthly, it gives some inspiration to young people and encourages them to work hard and create a better tomorrow.
I hope that this biography can make some contribution to the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, and enable compatriots at home to understand more about Hong Kong and strengthen communication. Lee Shau Kee explained the reasons why he agreed to publish the biography, expressing his love for Hong Kong and patriotism, which is both for the country and for Hong Kong. Hong Kong's present is full of confidence and love, and it is full of expectations for Hong Kong's bright future.
At a low ebb, a person should be as quiet as a virgin and wait for the dawn to reappear.
In 1965, an unprecedented wave of bank runs and bankruptcies occurred in Hong Kong, which naturally affected the overall economic decline. There were many rumors in the market, and everyone feared that Hong Kong would be in danger until the people were in dire straits. Some Hong Kong citizens have immigrated overseas. Even Lee Shau Kee's good partner Feng Jingxi also decided to immigrate to Canada with his family. Lee Shau Kee did not intend to dissuade Feng Jingxi because everyone has their own ambitions, and he knew Feng Jingxi's personality well. He was smart, sensitive and impatient, and asked him to sit down. It will be very difficult for him to find a way out in Hong Kong, where there are wars and bombs everywhere. Feng Jingxi, who moves like a rabbit, likes to seek changes every minute. During the changes, he will exert his strong ability to adapt to and overcome the environment, and even seek breakthroughs. There is no need to stop him from exploring the outside world. If he finds that it would be better to come back, he will rush back to Hong Kong as soon as possible. However, Lee Shau Kee's personality is exactly the opposite. He is a kind of person who is as quiet as a virgin. He has an inexplicable and unbreakable sense of belonging to Hong Kong. He is unwilling to leave and only wants to wait for the dawn to return. Moreover, Lee Shau Kee has an undying belief in his heart: He firmly believes that this bright Pearl of the Orient will definitely be restored soon. The future will be even more brilliant.
Lee Shau Kee’s Classic Quotations on Society Chapter 2
A businessman should first base himself on the local area.
During the September storm in Hong Kong in 1984, Lee Shau Kee not only stood firm, but also insisted on not outflowing funds. At that time, even Hong Kong's heavyweight Chinese-owned groups were following British-owned enterprises in diversifying their investments overseas. In March 1984, Simon Keswick, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Jardine Matheson Company, and the Board of Directors recommended that the company relocate to Bermuda. It was approved at the general meeting of shareholders held three months later. But sitting in his office on the sixth floor of Global Tower, Lee Shau-kee still repeated the promise he made to shareholders before Henderson Land went public: Henderson Land Development will focus on Hong Kong real estate as its main business.
Accurate and far-sighted predictions are crucial to a businessman's success.
In 1987, Lee Shau Kee had noticed the trend of Chinese funds slowly flowing into the Hong Kong market, which was more beneficial to the prospects of Hong Kong's real estate. Starting from this year, China's Guangdong Province and coastal provinces have already had funds to purchase properties in Hong Kong, mostly for rent collection. Compared with other international big cities, the current rent in Hong Kong is not unattainable. In other words, there is still potential for development. Lee Shau-kee secretly calculated and predicted with confidence that in the next ten years, the mainland's investment in property in Hong Kong is likely to replace Japan, Britain, and the United States. This prediction is of course based on China's four modernizations and economic opening.
Regardless of wealth accumulation, corporate influence, international reputation, etc., Chinese entrepreneurs have sufficient conditions to be far ahead in Asia.
This is a belief formed by Lee Shau Kee around 1988. In fact, the outstanding achievements of Hong Kong's Chinese entrepreneurs are obvious to all. In the 1950s and 1960s, the wealth and achievements of overseas Chinese in the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand were superior to those of Hong Kong people. However, this general trend has gradually shifted in the 1970s. By the 1980s, the strength of Hong Kong's Chinese entrepreneurs has become prominent in Asia and cannot be ignored. As soon as we entered the 1990s, Hong Kong's wealthy people had a relatively stable and strong foundation, and their wealth and achievements were already higher than those of the wealthy people in the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. The era of Hong Kong entrepreneurs who are all-powerful and hopeful has begun, because they have enough conditions to be far ahead in Asia in terms of wealth accumulation, corporate influence, and international reputation.
Businessmen should adopt a very prudent attitude to observe the surrounding environment, including the international investment climate, and plan for the future of the group and family.
In the 1990s, Lee Shau Kee adopted a very prudent attitude to observe the surrounding environment, including the international investment climate, and plan for the future of the group and family.
In 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait, resulting in the Gulf crisis and the imminent war. Financial observers around the world were pessimistic about the global economy. (Compiled by com) As a result, external stock markets fell sharply across the board, and Hong Kong stocks were sensitively affected, resulting in a decline. 20% to 40%.
However, Lee Shau-kee uniquely predicted that the Iran-Korea issue would not get out of hand, and he was full of confidence in Hong Kong's prospects. Later, the development of practice proved that Li Shauji's prediction at that time was completely correct.
Investors should develop development projects that are both meaningful and profitable.
Lee Shau Kee is particularly concerned about the development of low-cost housing for Chinese people. In early 1996, as a member of the Preparatory Committee of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, he went to Beijing to hold a preparatory committee meeting. At the invitation of the Tianjin Municipal Government, he made a trip to Tianjin to study a plan to invest in the construction of low-profit housing and let the municipal government resell it to the people. On that day, he not only traveled non-stop throughout Tianjin and carefully observed the environment, but also held talks with relevant officials and cadres at all levels and personally wrote down their responses.
Lee Shau Kee tirelessly asked the same questions to everyone he met, demanding to know the target of the sale, the economic capacity of the people of Tianjin, the price at which each unit could be sold, various comparisons between the prosperous areas and non-prosperous areas in the city, etc. Then he checked the answers and was pleased to find that the information obtained from all aspects was consistent without any contradiction or conflict. Therefore, he summarized a good impression of the well-off people in Tianjin and believed that it was important to help Tianjin build residential buildings. Development projects that are both meaningful and profitable.
Americans do not know enough about the actual situation in China.
On May 20, 1997, Lee Shau-kee accepted an interview with the Nihon Keizai Shimbun. Regarding the return of Hong Kong and the future of Hong Kong after the return, Lee Shau-kee expressed his views. The specific content is as follows: Q: In the American media Why are you confident in Hong Kong when you are not optimistic about its future? A: The Americans spread rumors and do not know enough about the actual situation in Hong Kong. I personally cannot see any crisis in Hong Kong after 1997. Q: When most companies in Hong Kong are relocating to other countries, why does your group still stay in Hong Kong?
What difference does it make? Answer: Hong Kong is an investment destination with a good rate of return. In ten years, Hong Kong investment may appreciate several times, while foreign countries will get double the value. Q: Are you prepared to leave Hong Kong if mainland China breaks its promise? A: I believe Hong Kong will remain unchanged in 50 years. Q: Is the era of Hong Kong Land Company over? Answer: Henderson Land and SHKP are developing the largest and tallest real estate projects in Hong Kong in the prime commercial area of ??Central, which is comparable to Land Corporation's commercial buildings in Central. Q: The world depends on how you view the return, what do you say to your observers? Answer: Hong Kong's return is a great event. Q: As a Hong Kong affairs consultant, what advice have you given to mainland China? A: I often raise good opinions about Hong Kong. For example, the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar against the US dollar must remain stable before the handover to avoid fluctuations in the foreign exchange market and interest rates.
The above remarks fully reflected Lee Shau-kee’s love for Hong Kong and his country.
Lee Shau Kee’s Classic Quotations on Society Chapter 3
A person should always keep in mind the hometown where he grew up, and should do his best to support the construction of his hometown.
This is what Lee Shau Kee often said, and his love for his hometown is beyond words.
This is what he said and what he did. As early as the beginning of the reform and opening up in 1978, he took the lead in donating 1.8 million yuan to expand Shunde Overseas Chinese Middle School, and established a teaching equipment maintenance fund of 300,000 Hong Kong dollars at the school in 1992; in 1980, he donated 3.1 million Hong Kong dollars to build Shunde Hospital; in 1991 Donated HKD 5 million to help build the Shunde Sports Center; donated HKD 2 million to Guangzhou City as an education fund in 1997; in particular, those who made major contributions to education were: *** donated a huge sum of RMB 80 million from 1993 to 1994 RMB built the unique Lee Shau Kee Middle School in Daliang, Shunde. In order to improve the school's supporting facilities and encourage the school to cultivate talents, it donated another 2 million yuan to build a swimming pool in 1996. At the beginning of the same year, it donated 5 million Hong Kong dollars to establish the Lee Shau Kee Middle School Scholarship Fund; in 1996 , Shunde City held the first Million Dollar Walk for Education Fund, took the lead in donating 1.5 million yuan, and personally participated in the entire event, which was deeply respected by the people in his hometown. In addition, 3 large bulldozers and excavators were donated, and funds were donated to rebuild the famous Taiping Tower in Shunde. Since the reform and opening up, the total amount of donations to Shunde has exceeded 100 million yuan.
Every patriotic businessman should actively respond to the country’s western development strategy.
This is a passage said by Lee Shau-kee published in the "People's Daily Overseas Edition" on August 30, 2000. Inspired by the Western Development Strategy, Hong Kong has set off a wave of investigation and understanding of the Western Region. The endless charm of the west is attracting more and more Hong Kong compatriots. Just like the investment in the Pearl River Delta of the mainland in the early 1980s, Hong Kong businessmen's enthusiasm for the west of the mainland continues to grow. From the end of August to the beginning of September, a delegation of Hong Kong business people headed by Fok Yingdong, Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, conducted a nine-day inspection of the western region. The vast western region left a deep impression on these Hong Kong business tycoons. Lee Shau Kee said with great enthusiasm at the time: In June this year, Chairman Jiang Zemin met with representatives of Hong Kong's business community in Beijing and talked about the development of the western region. We were deeply inspired. During this inspection, we were deeply impressed by the rich resources and great development potential of the western region.
China’s accession to the WTO will attract more investment.
According to a report by Xinhua News Agency in August 2002, Henderson Land Chairman Lee Shau-kee and New World Development Chairman Cheng Yu-tung attended a public event and both expressed their optimism about the mainland property market. When talking about the reasons, Lee Shau Kee said that after China joins the WTO, it will attract more investment, which will help improve the mainland real estate market.
