[Explanation] A crowded Hong Kong prince Keelung Street, a "Hong Kong Anti-epidemic Station" operated by a charity organization quietly settled here in April. Because masks, disinfectant and other epidemic prevention products sold are lower than the surrounding market price, residents have come to buy one after another. This anti-epidemic station in the downtown area only needs to pay a monthly rent of HK $ 1, and even the utilities, rates and other expenses have been paid by a kind owner.
【Explanation】 Under the double influence of social disturbance and epidemic situation, Hong Kong's retail, catering and other industries have fallen into a depression. In order to provide practical support to tenants, Li Genxing, the founder and chief executive of Hong Kong Shenghui Retail Fund Management Co., Ltd., recently launched a "1 yuan leasing" plan. He rents out shops from other landlords at a price of HK $ 10,000 per month, and then The sub-lease price is HK $ 1, and five shops have benefited from this plan.

The priority (beneficiary tenants) is the social welfare organization. The products sold by the social welfare organization are non-profit-making and beneficial to the neighborhood, so consider them first, and the second consideration is the private company. If they are larger, they will do things more efficiently. , Relatively fast, they can also sell neighbourhoods at very cheap prices (sell goods).
[Explanation] Li Genxing also added a privately owned shop in Shau Kei Wan, Hong Kong Island to the "1 yuan leasing" program. Social welfare institutions opened cafes here, although the monthly rent was more than 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. But Li Genxing believes that social responsibility is now more important than making money. Since the "revision storm" occurred in the second half of 2019, Hong Kong's economy has deteriorated rapidly, and many restaurants and retail shops have been forced to suspend business because they cannot afford to pay rent. Li Genxing, who has also experienced a difficult entrepreneurial road, is very able to experience the heavy pressure faced by small and medium-sized merchants at this time.

The main drivers of the economy and job creation in Hong Kong are not the owners, but the small and medium-sized enterprises that are doing business in the forefront. Therefore, as owners, they should shoulder social responsibilities, help small and medium-sized enterprises and tenants, and do not close down in difficult times. They are the people who really promote Hong Kong's economy.
[Explanation] Li Genxing is expected to expand the "1 yuan leasing" plan to 10 shops. At the same time, he is planning to establish a "conscientious owner economic circle", calling on more owners to share the hardships with tenants, reduce rents for them, and provide assistance within their ability. He believes that this will bring a better reputation to the owners, as well as alleviate social conflicts and help the revitalization of Hong Kong's economy.
