For Zhang Yuliang, in Xiangjiang, it was really difficult to find a guy who dared to compete with Qiu Deba.
This is not only because of money, but also because of connections.
Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia seem to be far away from each other, but they are actually closely related.
So Qiu Deba may look like a dragon crossing the river, but there are many horses following behind him.
With this aspect of the relationship, Qiu Deba always felt that he could win Wheelock & Co. in his hands.
But Qiu Deba did not expect that Li Zhiwen was also interested in Wheelock & Co.
Because in Qiu Deba's estimate, there are only a handful of people who can attack Wheelock & Co.
Leaving aside the Chinese, those foreign firms are having a hard time.
Jardine Matheson was stuck in a quagmire and could not extricate itself. Hutchison Whampoa was acquired. Swire Matheson had actually approached Xiaomadeng, but was declined.
The reason is that although Taikoo Matheson has not been hurt, the previous expansion has made Taikoo Matheson unsustainable. Now there is no money like the acquisition of Wheelock Matheson.
However, several other foreign firms are inferior to Wheelock & Company, so how dare they attack Wheelock & Company.
On the Chinese side, Qiu Deba's favorites were Li Zhiwen, Bao Yugang, and Huo Yingdong.
However, the three of them had just had a battle with Jardine Matheson. Li Zhiwen, as the main force, got the most fat, which relatively speaking consumed a lot of cash flow.
Although Bao Yugang didn't get many hands, taking Wharf before was a pain in the neck. Even if Bao Yugang wanted to be as domineering as before, funding was a big problem.
As for Huo Yingdong, although he has enough cash flow, the Hong Kong government has been suppressing him, so it is absolutely impossible for Huo Yingdong to get the control of Wheelock & Co.
As for characters such as Li Jiacheng and Li Zhaoji, it is also difficult.
So after all the calculations, Qiu Deba felt that no one could stop him.
And when Wheelock & Co., Ltd. transferred shares in Little Madden, Qiu Deba felt that it was just right, so even though the price was slightly higher, he agreed.
Li Zhiwen, Bao Yugang and Zhang Yuliang chatted for a while, and the two left the Zhang family's ancestral house.
After all, it's getting late, and it's not appropriate to disturb others.
On August 22, Li Zhiwen came to Zhang Yuliang's company headquarters - Federal Building.
After all, yesterday was just a general discussion and a verbal agreement was reached. Li Zhiwen will only start if things are done today.
About three hours later, Zhang Yuliang and Li Zhiwen signed a share transfer agreement, purchasing 34% of the shares of Wheelock & Co. at a price of one billion Hong Kong dollars, and Zhang Yuliang's minimum profit from this transaction is in units of 100 million .
For the one billion Hong Kong dollars, the initial payment is 700 million Hong Kong dollars, and the payment is 300 million Hong Kong dollars after two months.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, Li Zhiwen politely declined Zhang Yuliang's request for a meal.
Zhang Yuliang didn't insist, after all, for Li Zhiwen at this time, time is money.
After leaving the Federal Building, Li Zhiwen came to Universal Television.
Huang Xizhao, who was notified by Li Zhiwen, had already been waiting downstairs.
"Boss!" Huang Xizhao said respectfully.
"How about it, are you ready?" Li Zhiwen said.
"It's ready, boss!" Huang Xizhao said.
"Then let's go up!" Li Zhiwen said.
In fact, Li Zhiwen came to Universal Television with only one purpose, which was to let Quan Xiangjiang know that he held the shares of Wheelock & Co. as quickly as possible.
Two hours, that is, when the market opened in the afternoon, after dozens of media publicity.
Kirin Securities, as Li Zhiwen's financial advisor, announced on behalf of Li Zhiwen that Li Zhiwen joined Wheelock's acquisition and bid HK$6.6 for A shares and HK$0.66 for B shares, which was 10% higher than Qiu's bid. Defeng 34% stake.
As expected, as soon as the announcement was made here, the stock exchange made an announcement that Li Zhiwen held 34% of the shares of Wheelock & Company.
Later, this battle was regarded by the media as "Dragon Snake War". Qiu Deba is a strong dragon crossing the river, not a raptor crossing the river. He dares to fight for the rich in Hong Kong, where the rich are everywhere. His strength should not be underestimated.
It is widely rumored that Qiu Deba has a close relationship with the royal family of Jianglai, the richest man in the world, and Hong Kong people don't know the details of his wealth.
But Li Zhiwen is a "land snake", occupying the best location. All of Li Zhiwen's acquisitions have been successful without a single failure, so everyone trusts Li Zhiwen very much.
However, Zhang Wangliang and Xiao Maden, the two major shareholders of Wheelock & Co., are now on the sidelines, sitting on the sidelines and watching the tigers fight.
The joy is the minority shareholders who still hold Wheelock shares. Li Zhiyong's bid was like a windfall. However, there are still people who are waiting for the price, believing that the competition between the two powers will surely turn chicken rib stocks into "chicken leg stocks".
Sure enough, at the close of the market on the afternoon of August 22nd, Luo Fuqi (Qiu Tak-bah's financial advisor) had a lot of stockholders, but soon there was a black market of 6.8 Hong Kong dollars, which was higher than the purchase price of both. The exchange announced that Wheelock & Co. was suspended from trading.
At this time, Li Zhiwen held 38% of the shares of Wheelock & Co., while Qiu Deba already held 30% of the shares.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, although Li Zhiwen holds more than 8% of the shares, this battle is still fought.
August 22nd is Friday, and the market is closed on Saturday and Sunday, which also means that the outcome of this battle will not be known until next week.
In a luxury villa on the Peak Road, Qiu Deba's expressionless face was finally clouded, and he even saw debris all over the floor.
Qiu Deba never thought that Li Zhiwen would really get involved, the second song was so fierce when it came up.
"Luo Fuqi, what should I do next?" Qiu Deba asked sullenly.
Luo Fuqi was terrified when he heard Qiu Deba's question.
After all, it was Luo Fuqi who told Qiu Deba before that Li Zhiwen had no chance of making a move. Although Qiu Deba agreed, he was an investor, and the investor was right.
Luo Fuqi thought for a while, and then said: "Mr. Qiu, there is no good solution at present. We have no way out. After all, we have already invested so much money."
"However, I still think that Li Zhiwen is bluffing. After all, according to our previous analysis, we have unanimously concluded that Li Zhiwen doesn't have that much capital investment. It may be that Zhang Yuliang didn't come out to set up a big banner. Maybe it will be broken with a poke."
Luo Fuqi can only say this and insist so much, otherwise Luo Fuqi will be very worried that he will be thrown off the boat to feed the bastard.
"That's the only way to go. It's hard to get off the tiger now, and it's not my style to retreat, so just bite the bullet and charge!" Qiu Deba said.
Luo Fuqi didn't speak, but just nodded.
As for Kirin Securities, Li Zhiwen didn't keep an eye on it at all, but handed it over to Liang Botao. After all, Li Zhiwen had a lot of work and didn't have time to keep an eye on it.
At nine o'clock in the morning on August 25th, the four major stock exchanges were crowded with people, all waiting for who would win this time and who would pay.
And many stockholders who hold shares of Wheelock & Co. have smiles on their faces, and there are not many opportunities for them.
When the market opened at nine o'clock, everyone stared at the big screen and suddenly let out a sound of "huh".
"Fei, help me to see if I am dazzled, why do I see that the shares of Wheelock & Co. are still suspended." A young man next to a white-haired grandmother asked.
The young man named A Fei confirmed it carefully, and then said: "Grandma, you read that right, the license is indeed suspended."
"Why is this, why is the deal not resumed now!" Grandma said.
He was as puzzled as grandma, and even alarmed Luo Fuqi and Liang Botao.
"Mr. Liang, what should we do next? Wait for Wheelock & Co. to resume trading?" Liang Botao's manager asked.
"No, we can't wait, buy the shares of Hong Kong Land Trust and the conglomerate immediately!" Liang Botao said.
Hongkong Land Trust and Consolidated Enterprises are the two largest subsidiaries of the seven listed companies under the umbrella of Wheelock & Company.
Although the head office has always led the branch, this is also normal.
But once it's time for acquisition, the subsidiaries will also restrict the head office, because the shares of the subsidiaries held by the head office will be converted, and such a conversion will also increase Li Zhiwen's holdings in disguise.
When Luo Fuqi saw the suspension of Wheelock & Co., he also chose the same action as Liang Botao, increasing his holdings in Hong Kong Land Trust and joint ventures.
And because of the attention of Luo Fuqi and Liang Botao, stockholders also paid attention to these "sub-shares", and the stock prices of the seven major listed companies under Wheelock & Co. also rose steadily.
At 2:00 p.m. on August 25th, Wheelock & Co. resumed trading. Luo Fuqi and his sons took the lead in announcing an increase in the purchase price on behalf of Qiu Tak-puat. It was a burst of ecstasy, and the first-sellers gritted their teeth in anger.
Not to be outdone by Liang Botao, Li Zhiwen, the representative of Kirin Securities, announced the acquisition of the joint venture under Wheelock, at a price of 11 Hong Kong dollars per share, a 30% premium.
A considerable part of the conglomerate's assets are ships, and the value of the ships has depreciated, and its stocks have also been devalued to "bean dregs stocks."
After all, everyone can see the current global ship disaster in the general direction, and the conglomerate at this time is simply a junk stock among junk stocks, and no one cares about it.
And why did Liang Botao engage in this loss-making business? This is exactly where Liang Botao is clever. The conglomerate holds 68% of Wheelock's shares, and Liang Botao draws his salary from the bottom of the pot. This not only increases the shares in his hand, but also prevents the conglomerate from selling shares to Qiu Tak-bah.
And Luo Fuqi obviously didn't pay attention to this point. Although he also increased his holdings in Hong Kong Land Trust and Consolidated Enterprises before, he didn't have the courage to raise the price by 30% to buy junk stocks.
Secondly, since the shares of Wheelock & Co. have resumed trading, why do we need to look further away?
But Liang Botao's move made Luo Fuqi stunned.
At this time, neither Luo Fuqi nor Qiu Deba took any action, and the shares of the joint venture continued to flow into Qilin Securities.
In the evening, at Qiu Deba's villa on the top of the mountain, Qiu Deba praised freely: "This Liang Botao is really sharp, and Li Zhiwen is also very generous. He didn't personally direct such an important acquisition, but handed it over to this subordinate. He is very generous. "
Luo Fuqi was trembling and did not dare to speak. In all fairness, Luo Fuqi also felt that what Qiu Deba said was right, but he did not dare to go along with it now. After all, from the face of it, the acquisition of Qiu Deba failed.
Li Zhiwen naturally holds 38% of the shares, while Qiu Deba has increased his holdings to 33%, which seems to be a small distance.
But in terms of sub-stocks, Qiu Deba's gap is not a little bit worse.
Qiu Deba holds a 13% stake in Hong Kong Land Trust, and always has a 5% stake in the joint venture.
However, Li Zhiwen already holds 20% of the shares of Hong Kong Land Trust. As for the conglomerate, it has increased its holdings to 23%.
Comparing the two, Qiu Deba already knew that he had no chance, and there was no possibility of a successful acquisition.
Although Qiu Deba can stick to the end, he increased his holdings in joint ventures like Li Zhiwen.
But in fact, the opportunity has been lost, and it was a long time before Qiu Deba wanted to understand this truth.
Before Liang Botao had been increasing his shares in the conglomerate, Qiu Deba was very puzzled.
But when I was reminded later, I suddenly realized, and finally understood the truth.
But if you understand it, you will understand it, Qiu Deba doesn't dare to imitate a cat or a tiger.
After all, such a conglomerate like Li Zhiwen's increased holdings was ruined. Once Wheelock & Co. failed to acquire the conglomerate, the shares of the conglomerate in Li Zhiwen's hands would instantly become junk stocks, and losing tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars at once was not a small amount.
This is also the reason why Qiu Deba didn't dare to gamble, Qiu Deba left a way out for himself.
Seeing that Luo Fuqi was silent, Qiu Deba waved his hands indifferently, and finally said, "Forget it, it's not your fault."
"It has failed this time, and we have to think about the future. Now the stock price of Wheelock & Co. is inflated. Since we have given up, it is useless to hold too many shares of Wheelock & Co.."
"So take advantage of this opportunity, quickly sell some of the stocks, let Li Zhiwen and those leeks disband, and don't let it fall into your own hands!"
"Yes, Mr. Qiu, I'll make arrangements right away. Do we want to further increase the purchase price tomorrow, and push the price up, so that others will think that we are unwilling to give up!" Luo Fuqi said.
"Forget it, it's not necessary. Besides, if Liang Botao doesn't make a move if he pushes it up, it will be thrown into his hands. If that's the case, let's just throw it out like this!" Qiu Deba said.
"Yes, Mr. Qiu!" Luo Fuqi said.
The Qilin Securities Building was also a conversation, the difference was that the two did not discuss it, but ordered it directly.
I saw Liang Botao say to the manager beside him: "Azhi, as soon as the market opens tomorrow, we will announce that the A shares will be offered at HK$7.40~www.mtlnovel.com~0.74HK$ for a share!"
"Yes, Mr. Liang, but I don't think Qiu Deba can hold on any longer. It's enough if the blunt knife can't be sharpened slowly!" Zhi said.
"No, we want a thunderbolt, don't give them any chance, and don't let people underestimate the strength of our Qilin Securities!" Liang Botao said.
"Yes, Mr. Liang!" Ah Zhi said.
Sure enough, the next day, Kirin Securities did not wait for Luo Fuqi to dismantle the move, and made another move-again raising the price of the acquisition of Wheelock shares, A shares 7.4 Hong Kong dollars, B shares 0.74 Hong Kong dollars. Kirin Securities announced to the media at the same time that Li Zhiwen owns 38% of the shares of Wheelock & Co. Ltd.
