As we all know, the rich usually make protecting their own interests a priority, and few are willing to sell iron to help the poor. However, Yang Huiyan, chairman of the board of directors of Country Garden Group, recently expressed her main priorities: ensuring delivery, operation and credit. Among them, the most important thing is to ensure that buyers can get the house smoothly, even if they need to smash the pot and sell iron, the Yang family is willing to make every effort to achieve this goal. This bold statement must have encouraged many Country Garden owners, but there are also some who are skeptical of the words.
Looking back two years ago, Xu Jiayin, chairman of Evergrande Group, also made a similar promise, claiming that he could have nothing, but he must not let investors have nothing. However, the reality is not so rosy. There are quite a few buyers who believe in Xu Jiayin's promise and have not yet gotten their own houses, and the loan has been pressing on them. It can be seen that determination and slogans alone are not enough, and concrete actions are needed to make promises a reality. Therefore, we should still retain a certain skepticism about the Yang family's move to smash the pot and sell iron.
If we really want to assess how much money the Yang family has to support the company, then we must understand their assets. Although it is difficult to confirm how much wealth the Yang family has received before Country Garden's listing, since Country Garden's listing, the Yang Huiyan family, as the largest shareholder, has taken at least 42 billion yuan from the company, not including the high annual salary they receive every year. Taking 2021 as an example, Yang Guoqiang and his two daughters Yang Huiyan and Yang Ziying, the three of them obtained 2372 respectively80,000, 157630,000 and 2435The annual salary of 70,000 yuan totaled 6,38480,000 yuan. Even in the real estate industry as a whole, the huge wealth that the Yang family has acquired in the company is enough to rank among the top few. Therefore, it may be an exaggeration to describe their behavior as "smashing pots and selling iron".
In addition, it is puzzling that the Yang family's support for the company is quite distinctive. In 2022, they provided about 5 billion yuan of unsecured, interest-free loans to Country Garden, but these money were obtained by cashing out a 7% stake in Country Garden Services Company. This kind of behavior is really incomprehensible, as if the wealth you already have is reluctant to use it, can this be called smashing the pot and selling iron?
However, it is reassuring to note that Country Garden delivered 700,000 homes last year and has already delivered 500,000 this year. For home buyers, it is only a matter of time before they get a house, but is the quality of the house worrying?But then again, no matter whether the Yang family really smashes the pot and sells iron, we don't deserve to sympathize with them, and we don't need to speak of ourselves as so noble. Whether it is Evergrande or Country Garden, when the major shareholders cash out and leave, who cares about what to do with the rest of the mess?What a ill-fated ordinary person who got the unfinished building!
In short, the Yang family's determination to ensure that buyers can get their hands on the house should be commended. However, we must not be overly optimistic, we must maintain rational thinking, and not blindly believe in promises. In the process of buying a house, we still need to be vigilant, start from our own interests, and make rational decisions. Only in this way can we avoid being the last victim and stop being bothered by unforeseen risks.
