工商時報【蔡惠芳╱台北報導】

史上規模最大的招商案「台北雙子星」截止投標時間剩不到2個月,據悉,至少3∼5組團隊將競逐最後出線機會。包括美國私募基金Bainbridge+榮工團隊、國揚實業+金融保險業、藍天電腦旗下宏匯集團、香港南海控股、國泰人壽+三井住友等團隊正摩拳擦掌,即將進入最後決戰。

由捷運局主導招標、美商仲量聯行擔任總顧問的「台北雙子星」,將在10月1日截標,並採資格標、規格標、價格標三階段方式評選。預計今年底評選出最優申請人,明年3月底與最優申請人完成投資契約簽訂。

美國私募基金Bainbridge Investment已結盟美國寶洋集團(Treasure Ocean Group)合組台灣「Taipei Global Parners Group」台灣全球夥伴集團(簡稱TGP)。TGP表示,團隊成員還包括派拉蒙影業、硬石飯店集團、香港鷹君集團的朗廷酒店Langham、AR+AI團隊及台灣榮民工程公司,態度相當積極;此外,據悉連沙國王子阿不都拉(Prince Abudulla)也表態將加入TGP,聯手競標台北雙子星。

宏匯集團隸屬藍天集團旗下,主導地產開發與BOT案,董座許崑泰深諳兩岸商用不動產,去年底動工興建BOT大案「內湖之心」時已公開表態將競標「台北雙子星」。至於香港南海控股以房地產開發起家,為香港上市公司,其負責人于品海多年來對投資台灣一直躍躍欲試,市場傳言南海控股此番也來勢洶洶。

美商仲量聯行表示,由於「台北雙子星」總投資額上看600∼700億元,且團隊淨值要達160億元以上,競標門檻相當高,因此競標者都是實力堅強的公司,估計最積極的團隊至少3、4組。仲量聯行董事總經理趙正義也建議,政府應引導金融壽險業積極參與重大的國家建設,讓游資作最佳的資產配置。

A Shocking photo captures packed slums stacked next to the Twin Towers.
Is it really the Gate of Taipei?



The huge contrast is similar to Makati city, Manila, Philippines.
But buildings in makati city are placed even more orderly than Taipei.

Yes it is, Taiwan and their beloved illegal rooftop constructions.
And off most of the people don;t care how the building look like, the most important is it's value on the market.
I see often rotten building ( i mean never washed or taken care at) with luxury sport cars inside.
Taiwan is a rare country where the buildings/ architecture don't really reflect
peoples wealth.

台北雙子星計畫 明截標

2018-09-30 00:39經濟日報 記者黃阡阡/台北報導

歷經五次流標的台北雙子星計畫,將於明(10月1日)截標,目前已有五組投資團隊浮上檯面,不過近日因中投公司持有部分土地,涉及國民黨產及黨產條例的處分爭議,雖然台北捷運局強調,有依約配合本案辦理開發,不影響該案開發案之執行,但仍為明日截標結果增添未知數。

台北雙子星正式名稱為「台北車站特定專用區C1、D1用地土地開發案」,自2006年標售來已經歷五次流標,由於投標的是地上物兩棟商辦大樓聯合開發案,基地臨市民大道,興建兩棟超過55層商業大樓,總投資金額約600億元,其中還有私地主與公地主持有部分土地,號稱「台灣世紀最大標案」。

不過並非有錢就能投標,台北雙子星投標者首先要通過「資格標」,資金來源要確定70%為非中資參與、團隊最多五家法人、團隊合起來公司淨值要160億元等;再者則是「規格標」,包括地主權配比、承諾回租租金的單價,至多前三名進入價格評比;最後「價格標」以價高者得。

據了解,先前傳出有意投資的共有五組投資方,分別為藍天電腦(宏匯集團)、美國私募基金Bainbridge與榮工工程團隊、國揚實業攜手金融保險業、入股陽信銀行的港資南海控股公司,以及國泰人壽聯合三井住友等五大團隊最為積極。

但在開標前夕中投公司卻指出,旗下子公司欣光華持有505坪土地,是台北市政府外持份面積最大的地主,因涉及國民黨產及黨產條例的處分爭議,因此全案投資風險甚大。

雖然台北市捷運局緊急滅火指出,欣光華公司已與台北市政府簽訂土地聯合開發契約,無論是否簽訂增補契約書,欣光華公司仍須依約配合本案辦理開發,不影響開發案之執行,不過開標在即鬧出爭議,既為投標意願增添戲劇性,也為截標結果增添變數。

撇清陸資疑雲 雙子星投標廠商自比純台灣土狗
182出版時間:2018/10/23 16:54

台北市中正區鳥瞰,中間可見市民大道高架道路及台北雙子星大樓預定地。資料照片
「我們都是純台灣土狗。」台北雙子星案投標廠商之一、藍天電腦董事長許崑泰,強調自家資金絕對沒有一絲一毫中資,許崑泰與宏匯集團總裁黃坤泰,更在今日媒體見面會中,自報幼稚園至最高學歷。對於台北雙子星,名字相仿的2位主導者,勢在必得,更邀請杜拜哈里發塔、紐約世貿中心的建築設計事務所,預備打造全台最醒目地標,而全案投資金額估計將逾600億元。

過往至今,歷經5次流標,台北雙子星案,終在本月1日重啟招標後、出現2組投標人,除台商藍天宏匯,另1組則為港資南海控股。據了解,雙子星開發案採資格、規格及價格標等3階段開標。其中,第1階段為資格標,須符合近10年單一建築實績不低於100億元、或累積不低於300億元,且最近1年公司淨值合計不低於160億元等資格,而2組投標人出線,則因經營業務等身分,引發中資疑慮。

對此,許崑泰先在今日媒體見面會中喊出:「我是土生土長的台灣人,畢業於三重幼稚園、三重國小,一路到台北工專。」黃坤泰也跟著幽默報上自己畢業於老松國小等學歷,之後,2人也強調自己是純台灣土狗,就連宏匯集團所有的股東,都是中華民國國民,極力撇清中資傳聞。

而投標台北雙子星的藍天宏匯團隊,以許崑泰為首,結合藍天、宏匯、群光及群百等4大集團,市值高達2100億元,過去10年稅後淨利總計超過600億元。在不動產經營的部份,許崑泰強調:「我們4大集團持有並經營的商用不動產面積高達103萬坪,相當於10棟101大樓的規模,年淨房租收入則達57億元。」

宏匯集團目前在雙北市積極參與不少公共建設案,預計自明年起,陸續將有台北市內湖區「內科之心」,及新北市新莊區「宏匯新北廣場」、「i Tower辦公大樓」等個案陸續完工。積極佈局商用不動產市場,黃坤泰坦言:「為積極籌備雙子星案,我們暫時沒有其他拓展計劃,希望得標後專心經營此案。」(詹宜軒/台北報導)

「台北雙子星」陸資投標疑雲!? 藍天、宏匯集團喊話:我是正港台灣人

記者陳韋帆/台北報導

「台北雙子星」北捷聯開案因歷經弊案風波停擺多年,日前終於再次開標,外傳遞件兩間公司的就是疑為陸資的「藍天集團」與「南海控股」。其中的「藍天集團」(偕同宏匯集團)今(23)日正式公開宣布,10月1日已完成投標,兩大集團董事長與總裁都再次強調,自己是「正港的台灣人」,是「鮭魚返鄉的台商」,得標後將打造「台灣新門戶」,讓「台北雙子星」成為台灣的驕傲。

此次投標團隊中,其中一隊是由「藍天電腦」與「宏匯」出資各50%所參與,根據對岸媒體報導,藍天電腦暨宏匯集團董事長許崑泰,在中國大陸具有「台商不動產之王」稱號,總資產市值高達新台幣2,100億元,此次許崑泰公開召開記者會,親口澄清所有的傳言。

藍天集團董事長許崑泰一開始就強調,自己是土生土長台灣人,出生於台北市松山區,求學時代於新北市三重區的國中小就讀,最高學歷為台北工專,希望能闢除外界謠傳藍天為陸資的謠言。

許崑泰表示,藍天、宏匯、群光以及群百等四大集團包含三家台灣上市公司,市值高達2100億元,年營收1,300億,過去10年稅後淨利總計超過600億;結合宏匯集團已投入雙北三大BOT案之台灣營建實績,預期將可成為打造「台灣新門戶.台北新起點」的最堅實支持。此外,藍天與宏匯本次特別結合美國S.O.M聯合建築師事務所、群光電能、凱悅國際(Hyatt)等國內外知名頂尖團隊攜手合作,共同打造台灣的驕傲。

許崑泰說,「台北雙子星」總投資金額高達600多億,其中4成為自備款,其餘6成將由銀行貸款,目前已有16家銀行出具融資意向書支持。截至今年6月,藍天集團總市值已達2,100億,全球員工規模超過50,000人,106年度四大集團總計營收達1,300億元,過去十年來稅後淨利超過台幣600億,回饋股東超過台幣430億。

在不動產經營方面,許崑泰指出:「我們的四大集團所持有並經營之商用不動產面積高達103萬坪,已相當於10棟台北101大樓的規模,而整體集團的商業不動產市值已達1,894億元,年淨房租收入57億元。這些績效數據都可以顯示出我們集團在不動產開發上的能力與成果。」

宏匯集團為許崑泰董事長於民國86年創立,主要從事商業不動產開發、設計規劃、興建與經營管理業務,以經營商場、A級辦公大樓、五星級飯店為強項。近年宏匯積極參與台灣公共建設,包含台北市「內科之心」、新北市新莊的宏匯新北廣場以及新莊副都心的i Tower辦公大樓與凱悅嘉軒酒店等BOT案,總開發面積達 13.4 萬坪,總投資金額約台幣150億元,各案開發進度穩定超前,預計109年起陸續投入營運。預估50年契約期間內,三大BOT案將為政府創造至少新台幣 76 億元以上的權利金收益,貢獻超過 200 億元台幣稅收,並增加 1萬個以上就業機會。

宏匯集團總裁黃坤泰一開始也先澄清,自己出生於台南,絕對是正港的台灣人。他說,本次參與台北雙子星標案,特別結合國內外頂尖團隊共同加入投標陣容,其中特別值得一提的是美國S.O.M聯合建築師事務所,全世界超過400米以上的超高層大樓,排名前16棟中有7棟是由S.O.M設計,全球最高杜拜哈里發塔和紐約世貿中心大樓都是S.O.M的作品;此外,群光電能與凱悅國際(Hyatt),也是本案的重要夥伴。希望與國內外的頂尖團隊一起攜手合作,打造最高效能、舒適便利、智慧健康的國際一流建築。

許崑泰說,藍天電腦與宏匯集團投入雙子星標案有兩個最重要的原因,第一是使命感,從一開始就認為台灣門戶意義非凡,如果有機會還是應該要由台灣本土的團隊來經營會更有意義,很希望能把這個案子做的很完美,很希望能把這個案子做到極限的美好;第二是藍天有這樣的資源和能力,這麼重要的指標型案件,財務能力、建築經驗和經營實力非常重要,很榮幸有這樣的機會可以參與這個案子。

許崑泰表示,藍天電腦與宏匯集團,將憑藉「資產實業、穩健營收、豐富經驗、誠信踏實」等四大基礎參與台北雙子星標案,希望藉台灣本土資金結合國際一流團隊,讓世界看見台北,打造「台灣新門戶.台北新起點」。

Clevo head unveils Twin Towers plan
ZERO CHINESE CAPITAL:Kent Hsu said his team would work with the US architecture firm that designed the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, adding that he has already secured loans
By Crystal Hsu / Staff reporter


Contract computer maker Clevo Co (藍天電腦) and its affiliate Hongwell Group (宏匯集團) yesterday shed light on their plans for a multibillion-dollar development project near Taipei Railway Station.

The consortium is one of two teams that submitted a tender for the Taipei Twin Towers development project, whose winner is to be announced by the city government in December.

“We are 100 percent Taiwanese investors without a penny of Chinese capital,” Clevo chairman and the consortium’s head Kent Hsu (許坤泰) told a media briefing in Taipei.

Hsu, who owns Chicony Electronics Co (群光電子) and the China-based Buynow (百腦匯) retail chain, said he and his family have been at the helm of Hongwell Group since its establishment in 1997.

Group president KT Huang (黃坤泰) said Hsu made a fortune through his stakes in Clevo and Chicony, both listed companies, as well as business ventures in China.

Commercial properties under Hongwell’s management amount to 1.03 million ping (3.4 million square meters), or equal to 10 Taipei 101s combined, Hsu said.

The group has experience in joint ventures with the government, as it is responsible for three such projects in Taipei’s Neihu District (內湖) and New Taipei City’s Sinjhuang District (新莊).

Hongwell said it would work with US architecture and engineering firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP (SOM), to build the complex.

SOM is known for designing iconic buildings, with its portfolio including the One World Trade Center in New York and Burj Khalifa in Dubai, Hongwell said.

Hsu said that 16 local lenders have agreed to provide loans for 60 percent of the NT$60 billion (US$1.94 billion) project, if he is awarded the contract, while his companies would provide the remaining 40 percent.

“I do not have a profit target in mind as long as the investment generates higher rental incomes than time deposits,” Hsu said, adding that he has made property investments along railways and MRT systems.

TRADE DISPUTE

The ongoing trade dispute between the US and China would not affect his property investment decisions, since the project would take seven years to complete, he said.

Hsu’s consortium is competing against a team consisting of Hong Kong’s Nan Hai Corp (南海控股) and Malaysian property developer Pavilion Group (柏威年集團).

The Nan Hai-Pavilion team earlier this month told local Chinese-language media that there is no Chinese capital in the companies.

The mixed-use complex is to house office and retail space, as well as hotel rooms.

The city government had failed to find bidders for the project, which has been at the center of a series of bribery scandals over the past 20 years.

ELECTIONS: Ko meets with advisory group of 400 business leaders

Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je (柯文哲) yesterday for the first time met with the advisory group for his re-election campaign and touted the city’s investment potential.

About 400 people from the business sector, including from the tourism, information technology and environmental services industries, attended the meeting.

Ko’s opponents have said that he has a poor record of attracting investment to the capital.

Ko said that although he did not sign any build-operate-transfer (BOT) development projects in the first two years of his term, Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) and Hau Lung-bin (郝龍斌) also did not sign any in their first two years as Taipei mayor.

Investors tend to just watch a new city administration for the first two years, Ko said, adding that Taipei attracted the most projects of any city from his third year and he expects the capital to attract the most investment for at least the next three years.

Total investment in BOT projects and other development projects in Taipei was about NT$29.9 billion (US$964.3 million) in his third year and reached a cumulative total of NT$39.8 billion this year, he said, adding that the Taipei Twin Towers project is expected to attract even more investment next year.

Foreign nationals invest in projects in Taipei because the city government is “very clean” and has clear regulations, Ko said.

Separately yesterday, Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Taipei mayoral candidate Ting Shou-chung (丁守中) was joined by former president Ma and KMT Vice Chairman Hau Lung-bin (郝龍斌) in Taipei’s Gongguan (公館) area, while Democratic Progressive Party (DDP) Taipei mayoral candidate Pasuya Yao (姚文智) held a parade in Daan Forest Park (大安森林公園) in the afternoon.

Speaking on the sidelines, Yao said that Ko had “adopted a belittling attitude toward social justice, viewing it as trash, to butter up members of the National Women’s League and gain their votes.”

Ko on Saturday spoke at a veterans’ village cultural symposium on transitional justice alongside league chairwoman Joanna Lei (雷倩).

He said that transitional justice “should be about solving current problems first, followed by preventing them from happening again, while investigating liability for past incidents should be last,” as calling people to account for historical crimes first would create a litany of problems.

He also defended the league and the China Youth Corps — both of which the Cabinet’s Ill-gotten Party Assets Settlement Committee ruled to be KMT affiliates — saying: “They are operating properly now.”

The groups illegally profited from so-called “donations” during the former KMT regime, but that “will not happen again, so why do you [the asset committee] care about what it did in the past?” he said.

Committee spokeswoman Shih Chin-fang (施錦芳) yesterday said that Ko’s remarks seemed to indicate that murderers could be freed from prison as long as they repent.

Politicians with such core belief “seem very dangerous,” Shih said.

Ko said his remarks were to highlight “the order of importance for issues of justice.”

A conversation with former Polish president and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Lech Walesa this year taught him the importance of “sequence” when dealing with issues of justice, he said.

Walesa taught him to deal with the problems at hand first, then prevent matters from happening again and investigate liability last, Ko said.

The city government’s dealings with the China Youth Corps made that advice relevant, he said.

Confrontation between the pan-blue and pan-green camps seems to be especially intense before elections, so his remarks are often overinterpreted, Ko said.
