Reborn Capital Tycoon Chapter 159

  Chapter 159 Jardine Matheson

  Think about it, what if HSBC helped Chen Yi acquire one or two influential British companies?

   There is no doubt that it will definitely shake the whole Xiangjiang.

  Just like Li Chaoren in his previous life, Li Chaoren settled in Hutchison, one of the four major foreign firms. After completing the Snake Tunxiang, he was crowned the title of Superman by the major media in Xiangjiang, and his career has been smooth sailing since then.

   In his previous life, Li Chaoren relied on the limelight of being settled in Hutchison. With the help of Shen Bi, he became the second Chinese director of HSBC after the charter king.

  The same drama, now just change the person, change the time, as long as there are no accidents, Chen Yi can completely copy the successful path of Li Chaoren in his previous life.

  Sha Ya values ​​Chen Yi's potential and ambition. Potential and ambition are the driving force for a person's career development. How can HSBC not want such a person? How can you not win over?

  Being able to become the chairman of HSBC Bank, Sha Ya's vision is naturally not bad. The reason why later generations are not as famous as Shen Bi is nothing more than that the times they live in are different.

  When Shen Bi came to power, it happened that Xiangjiang was facing unprecedented changes. The inland reform and opening up meant that Xiangjiang was destined to return to the inland within the specified time.

  In the previous life, HSBC Bank chose to support Li Chaoren and Chartered Ship King, which was somewhat passive, because Xiangjiang was destined to return, and HSBC had to rely on Chinese capital to continue to gain a firm foothold in Xiangjiang.

  Now, HSBC actively pulls Chen Yi into the market, which is equivalent to turning passive into active. This may be the first butterfly effect after Chen Yi's rebirth.

  At the entrance of HSBC Bank, Chen Yi stood on the steps, smiled at Shen Bi who escorted him down, and said, "Manager Shen, send it here."

  Honestly speaking, Chen Yi felt a little flattered to be sent downstairs by Shen Daban himself, and this kind of treatment is not available to ordinary people.

   Sure enough, money can turn ghosts around... Even the famous Shen Daban Wang in his previous life had to bow his head.

  Shen Bi stopped in his tracks and asked, "I wonder if Chen Sheng has time next week?"

  Chen Yi: "Is Manager Shen okay?"

  Shen Bi: "It's like this. Next week at the Peninsula Hotel, there will be a charity party organized by HSBC Bank. If Chen Sheng is interested, he can bring Miss Li to attend."

  "Charity party?" Chen Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously thought: 'This is because I'm rich, so you want to kill a big family? '

  However, as soon as the idea came up, he dismissed it.

  In a capitalist society, charity is a must. Didn't you see that many rich men in Europe and America are enthusiastic about charity?

  Whether it is true charity or fake charity, if you are rich, if you don't claim the title of a philanthropist, you will definitely be called rich and unkind.

  The charity gala held by HSBC Bank will definitely be attended by many high-ranking people from Xiangjiang. Although he is young, he may not be taken seriously by those bigwigs, but it doesn't hurt to participate.

  After thinking about it, Chen Yi nodded to Shen Bi and said, "If I receive an invitation letter, I will definitely be there on time next week."

   Isn't it charity, he will just donate a little at that time.

  As for being in the limelight, Chen Yi said that it was impossible, and his money was not brought by strong winds, so he would not just throw it away.

  After watching Chen Yi get into the car, Shen Bi was going to turn around and go back to the company.

  However, the moment he turned around, he was shocked by the scene. The bodyguards who followed Chen Yi before got into the car quickly and orderly after Chen Yi got into the car.

  The whole process lasted less than ten seconds.

  Elite and well-trained, the six words flashed through Shen Bi's mind. As Shen Bi, who had been on the battlefield and personally experienced the baptism of war, such a team is definitely very powerful.

  Shen Bi couldn't figure out where Chen Yi found these people, but some doubts before were finally resolved at this moment.

  Many people didn't quite understand why Chen Yi hired so many bodyguards for nothing, but now the truth finally came to light.

Whoever suddenly became rich suddenly would feel uneasy and afraid of being targeted, especially in Xiangjiang, where the social environment is not very stable. If the news of Chen Yi's profit in the stock market spreads, there is a real possibility of being targeted by someone who wants to .

  Now Chen Yi is guarded by a group of powerful bodyguards. Even if the news spreads, not many people really dare to take the risk.

   It was the first time Shen Bi met such a thoughtful young man in most of his life.

   Ignoring Shen Bi's side, he was deeply moved. After returning from HSBC, Chen Yi did not rush home, but returned to the company and stared at the two documents in a daze.

  Now that his funds in the stock market are secure, it's time to take the next step of bottom-hunting, and Chen Yi hesitates to choose the direction to do it.

  The two documents in his hand come from two companies.

  One of them is very famous, and it is the company that allowed the charter king to successfully abandon the ship and dock in the previous life, the famous Wharf.

  After the charter king in his previous life acquired Wharf, he built the largest shopping mall in Hong Kong, Harbor City, and Times Square on its original site, and his son-in-law was crowned the title of the largest charterer in Hong Kong through this.

  Now the stock price of Wharf is neither high nor low. Although affected by the stock market crash and the oil crisis, the stock price of Wharf fell by nearly half.

  But it is undeniable that in the early 1970s, the world's shipping industry was booming, which prompted its related industries to follow suit. As one of the largest cargo ports in Xiangjiang, Wharf has a very large role and influence.

  Another company, whose name Chen Yi had never heard of in his previous life, is a real estate company called 'Golden Gate Construction'.

  Golden Gate Construction is a subsidiary of Jardine Matheson. Its origin can be traced back to the head office founded by John Golden Gate in India in 1919.

  Gammon Construction's main business is to undertake Xiangjiang construction and civil engineering. It has been independent since the construction of Xiangjiang Kai Tak Airport in 1955. After it was listed in 1970, it bought Jinzhong Bingfang and built Jinmen Building.

The main reason why Chen Yi fell in love with Kinmen Construction is because Kinmen Construction is an absolute leader among the many real estate companies in Hong Kong. If he can acquire Kinmen Construction, he will be able to squeeze himself into the top four existing Chinese real estate companies. Since then, he has intervened in the Hong Kong real estate industry in one fell swoop.

  Now the only thing that makes Chen Yi hesitate is the backing of the two companies. Behind Wharf and Golden Gate Construction is Jardine Matheson, the leader of Xiangjiang Matheson.

   During this period, the strength of Jardine Matheson should not be underestimated.

   Don't look at how a few years later, Jardine Matheson will lose out when it competes with the charter king for Wharf, but if the charter king does not have HSBC's support behind it, it may not be possible to grab food from Jardine Matheson.

Whether to turn against Jardine Matheson in advance, Chen Yi hesitated. After all, the name of a person, the shadow of a tree, and the strength of Jardine Matheson are not blown out. Overtly and secretly suppressed by foreign firms.
