Li Ka-shing tells us: the future in Europe

Asia's richest man, Li Ka-shing, told us to invest in the future in Europe! When a great investor makes an opinion, it's best to focus on the direction he or she is predicting. The Asian richest man, who said he had a "special feeling" for Hong Kong and "will never" withdraw his investment from Hong Kong, is dismissive of the idea that Li Ka-shing is reducing investment in Hong Kong. "Special Emotion" is similar to the team you like, but in business, business is business. In Friday, it was reported that Li Ka-shing's Hutchison Whampoa company was about to spend $15 billion to buy the UK's O2 company, and the whole business was close to being finalized. For years, Mr Li has been giving the impression that the future of investment is in Europe, and that the acquisition of 02 has undoubtedly finally validated the impression. Of course, this does not mean that Li Ka-shing will be brick to dismantle his central headquarters of the Changjiang Group in Hong Kong, and EC2 in the same way (Changjiang group headquarters is also the location of Bloomberg Hong Kong office, we can not stand the London winter). What we want to say is that this trend is undeniable. For the past two years, Li Ka-shing has tried to sell the Hutchison Group's Hong Kong supermarket chain (and later Li Ka-shing sold a portion of his retail business at a price of $5.7 billion), financing 3.1 billion of dollars for the listing of its Hong Kong power company and selling part of Hong Kong's port business. In the same period, Hutchison bought Telefonica Ireland for a 1.1 billion-dollar price, buying a number of Austrian telecoms operators and negotiating the acquisition of several Italian wireless carriers. Li Ka-shing's company also took part in a bid for Fortum, a Swedish power company. Li Ka-shing is often regarded as "Superman" in the local media in Hong Kong. Li Ka-shing's investment in the real estate market has a more distinct feature, that is, to buy the prospects are not optimistic about the property and patiently waiting for appreciation. The Hong Kong Property Company Limited (Kong) is a "right-hand man" who has reaped a lot of wealth from the investment estate of Li Ka-shing, which initially did not look good to the market, but the value of the property owned by the company turned 1 time times in 2009, Its property properties are also the highest in the world. According to a Bloomberg report last September, Changjiang Industrial group has not purchased any real estate since 2012. According to data published by the Bloomberg billionaire index, the 86-Year-old's total net worth of Ka-Shing has reached more than $30 billion trillion. In the face of slowing economic growth in mainland China, Li Ka-shing has started to sell his holdings of property in the mainland. Lee Ka-shing is now heavily in Europe, and his behavior is very similar to the first foray into the real estate industry in 1967. When social unrest led to a sharp fall in real estate prices throughout the market, Li Ka-shing is at this time to buy a large number of real estate property.
