A Hong Kong Tycoon Just Placed Thelargest Order In Rolls-royce History by KehindeAwoniyi(m): 10:23pm On Sep 19, 2014
Hong Kong real estate entrepreneur Stephen Hung just placed
an order for 30 Rolls-Royce Phantoms — the largest such order
in company history.

Valued at $20 million by the Financial Times , the fleet will be
owned by Hung's upcoming Louis XIII Hotel and Casino in
Macau, where it will shuttle wealthy Chinese gamblers around
town. Even though the gaming haven is going through its worst
summer since 2012, Hung's Louis XIII promises to take luxury
to a whole new level when it opens in 2016.

For example, the most expensive suite in the 22-story hotel is
expected to cost as much as $130,000 a night, The Wall Street
Journal reports.

"We at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars are delighted and honoured that
Mr Hung has commissioned Rolls-Royce to provide the largest
single order of Phantoms in history," said Rolls Royce CEO
Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes in a statement. "The Louis XIII fleet of
Phantoms promises to be one of most impressive sights ever
seen in Macau when they arrive at the...hotel in 2016. Mr
Hung’s commission reaffirms Phantom’s pinnacle position as
the motor car of choice for those seeking to experience the
finest luxury the world has to offer."

No passenger will ever forget whose Phantom he or she is
riding in.

According to Rolls-Royce, each of the 30 Extended Wheelbase
Phantoms will be custom-designed by the company's Bespoke
Vehicles Team. Interior accents and features will mirror the 55
year-old Hung's over-the-top style. In fact, two of the cars in
the fleet will feature additional internal and external gold
accents, and are the most expensive Phantoms ever
commissioned. All 30 cars in the Louis XIII fleet will feature
bespoke timekeeping by Graff Luxury Watches.
Although Louis XIII will have the largest fleet of Rolls Royces, it
won't have the most famous hotel fleet. That distinction belongs
to the Peninsula Hotel in neighboring Hong Kong, whose
trademark fleet of dark green Rolls-Royces have been keeping
passengers happy for decades.

In addition to the fleet, Rolls-Royce will also assist in the design
of the hotel's driveway. And the automaker will train
chauffeurs in the proper handling the handcrafted luxury land
yachts.

Even more intriguing is Stephen Hung's history with Rolls-
Royce. According to The Wall Street Journal, as the son of
wealthy real estate investors, Hung drove a Rolls Royce to work,
even as an intern with Citibank.
He eventually became head of investment banking in Asia for
Merrill Lynch.
