  Chapter 712 The plan to acquire Wing On Group (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  Xiangjiang, Central, Mandarin Oriental meeting rooms!

Bao Yugang, Wu Guangzheng, Niu Bijian, and Bao Fuda were sitting opposite each other. The two parties met here early today, of course for the stocks in Bao Yugang's hands in Wharf. However, the atmosphere at the scene did not show any solemnity. easy.

   "Bao Sheng, some time ago your horse won the first prize at the race meeting, which is really enviable!" Niu Bijian said with a smile on his face.

  Bao Yugang laughed, and said: "It's just a fluke. I heard that Mr. Taipan's racehorse felt unwell that day and temporarily withdrew from the race. Otherwise, it's not certain who will win!"

   "People have to do what they can, and horse racing is the same, but this time my horse is really injured, otherwise it's hard to say who will win and who will lose!" Niu Bijian said meaningfully.

After a few words of tit-for-tat with smiles on their faces, the two began to get to the point. This time, Niu Bijian invited Bao Yugang over to see what Bao Yugang really wanted, so that he could give up the Wharf warehouse that he now holds. stock.

  In the face of Niu Bijian's direct inquiry, Bao Yugang did not play charades, but directly preached.

   "Kangle Building in Central, Taikoo Building, and Prince's Building. If Hongkong Land can exchange these three buildings, we are willing to exchange the shares of Wharf to Hongkong Land!"

   It's really a lion who opened his mouth. Hearing Bao Yugang's request, Rao Niubijian and Bao Fuda were already mentally prepared, but they still took a breath of air.

At this time, Jardine had not moved to Kangle Building, and Kangle Building had not changed its name. Before the completion of China Building, Kangle Building was the tallest building in Hong Kong. At the same time, Kangle Building, Taigu Building, and Prince Building were the most valuable land in Central. The property is an important part of Landmark. Now that Bao Yu just asked for these three buildings, this is digging flesh in the heart of Landmark!

   "Bao Sheng, stop joking with me. You should know that these three buildings are impossible for us to exchange for shares in Wharf!"

  Niu Bijian directly rejected Bao Yugang's request.

Although Bao Yugang had a lot of scruples about the acquisition of Wharf in his heart, even he himself hoped to be able to switch to the core property of Hongkong Land, so as to avoid heavy losses in the acquisition of Wharf, but he also had a steelyard in his heart , if he can't get these three properties, then no matter how big the loss in the Wharf acquisition battle is, he will not give up.

   "There is nothing impossible to trade. Mr. Taipan must have forgotten that when Henry Keswick was here, he was willing to trade with us with the Kangle Building!"

  It turned out that in the early 1970s, Henry Keswick proposed to Bao Yugang to trade the Kangle Building for a 200,000-ton supertanker owned by Global Shipping.

  However, this transaction was stopped by Bao Yugang at that time, because at that time, the value of one such supertanker was the value of two Kangle Buildings.

"From one moment to the next, what was the situation of global shipping at that time, and what is the situation of global shipping now, I don't need me to tell you Baosheng, you should know it, besides, Baosheng, aren't you also selling cruise ships for global shipping? "

   Naturally, Niu Bijian knew about this, so he opened his mouth to preach to Bao Yugang.

Bao Yugang laughed and said: "The problem of global shipping is only temporary, not to mention that now I am not exchanging land with you with supertankers, but with stocks in Wharf. No matter how you calculate this price, it is appropriate! "

Niu Bijian shook his head and said: "Bao Sheng, you and I are well aware of this kind of thing. At this time, the stock price of Wharf is simply inflated. After the dust settles between us, the stock price of Wharf will definitely drop. At that time, whether these stocks are worth the value of those three buildings, I am afraid only God knows!"

Bao Yugang also had his own persistence, saying: "Although the stock price of Wharf will fall, Mr. Taipan, don't forget that the asset value of Wharf will not change. The development of the industry will increase, so in my opinion, it is most appropriate to exchange the three buildings of Kangle Building, Taigu Building and Prince Building for Wharf shares!"

  New Bijian said: "Bao Sheng, you should know that Kangle Building, Taikoo Building, and Prince's Building are important parts of our Landmark Plaza. It is impossible for us to exchange these three buildings with Bao Sheng."

   "Since this is the case, there is nothing to talk about!" Bao Yu just got up and wanted to leave.

  Seeing this, Niu Bijian hurriedly called Bao Yugang to stop, and said, "Bao Sheng, why don't you listen to our land offer first?"

  Bao Yugang didn't intend to really leave, but now that he heard what Niu Bijian said, he took advantage of the situation and sat down again.

Niu Bijian said: "Mandarin Oriental in Central, Starlight Hotel in Kowloon, and some residential properties in Mid-Levels are the conditions for our Jardines to open. Mandarin Oriental and Peninsula Hotel are listed as one of the two major hotels in Hong Kong. If Baosheng takes over, he can better enter the hotel industry, the Star Plaza in Kowloon, and some residential properties in Mid-Levels can allow Baosheng to flex his muscles in commercial buildings and residential properties.”

Wu Guangzheng, who has been silent for a long time, looked carefully at his father-in-law. In Wu Guangzheng's view, the three assets proposed by Jardines are actually qualified, especially the Mandarin Oriental of Jardines, which is the top of Xiangjiang. One of the hotels is also one of Jardine's core assets. Now that Jardine is willing to take out Mandarin Oriental, in Wu Guangzheng's view, it can actually be exchanged!

   It's just that Wu Guangzheng knows that this kind of thing is definitely not up to him, and everything depends on his father-in-law's choice.

   After being silent for a while, Bao Yugang said: "I need to think about this condition!"

In fact, Niu Bijian has been staring at Bao Yugang closely, wanting to know the answer from Bao Yugang's mouth. Although Bao Yugang did not directly agree now, he did not object either. This is already a big deal for Niu Bijian One wins.

   "It's natural!"

  Bao Yu just got up and said: "I will seriously consider this matter, and when I have the result, I will personally call Mr. Taipan and tell you the result!"

   "No problem!" Niu Bijian laughed.

   Then the two sides shook hands and said goodbye.

   Seeing Bao Yugang and Wu Guangzheng walking out of the conference room, Bao Fuda asked Niu Bijian: "Do you think Bao Yugang will agree with our proposal?"

  The smile on Niu Bijian's face disappeared, he shook his head and said, "I don't know, but judging by Bao Yugang's attitude, I seem to be a little moved!"

Bao Fuda was not so optimistic, and analyzed: "If Bao Yugang is really moved, he should propose some conditions. After all, what we proposed is not equal to what he wants. But now Bao Yugang didn't respond at all, I think it's a fraud!"

  Nu Bijian looked at Bao Fuda in surprise: "Then what do you think Bao Yugang will do?"

   "Daddy, do you really want to agree with their proposal?" Wu Guangzheng couldn't figure out what his father-in-law was thinking, so he asked ambiguously.

  Bao Yugang sat in the car and asked Wu Guangzheng, "What do you think of the terms of exchange they proposed?"

Wu Guangzheng thought for a while, and replied according to the most sincere thoughts in his heart: "I think it is appropriate. Although the conditions they put forward are far from what we want, from the results, Mandarin Oriental , Xingguangxing, and properties in the middle of the mountain are all possible.

  Mandarin Oriental allows us to seamlessly link to the hotel industry, Starlight Building can be demolished and rebuilt, properties in Mid-Levels can also be developed into luxury residential areas for sale, with these three we can officially enter the real estate industry and hotel industry! "

   After finishing speaking, Wu Guangzheng looked at Bao Yugang expectantly, hoping to get Bao Yugang's praise.

But to Wu Guangzheng's disappointment, Bao Yugang didn't have any satisfied expression on his face, instead he said with some disappointment: "Actually, it's good that you can think of these things, but it's not enough. You know why I'm looking for them." Do you want Kangle Building, Taikoo Building, Prince Edward Building?"

Because of the disappointment on Bao Yugang's face, Wu Guangzheng cheered up. After thinking for a while, he said: "Because the value of these three properties is the highest, and they are still in Central, don't worry about their value." In the future, it will be lowered, and it can even be used to allow us to enter the real estate industry in Central?"

Bao Yugang shook his head and said, "The most important thing is that these three properties are located in the center of Landmark Plaza. With these three properties, for us, it is a fortress that can be attacked and defended. Perhaps in the future, we can even use these three properties to launch an attack on Hongkong Land. This is why I like them the most.

  But now the Mandarin Oriental that Jardine has offered seems to be in line with the value of the Wharf shares we currently hold, but it has actually made us lose the potential for future development. "

  Wu Guangzheng showed doubts in his eyes, he didn't understand Bao Yugang's meaning.

Bao Yugang continued to explain to Wu Guangzheng: "Although Mandarin Oriental is good, the hotel industry is not our goal after all. Our goal is the real estate industry. And if you look at Mandarin Oriental, Starlight Hotel, and properties in Mid-levels, these three The places are separated, that is to say, they cannot be combined to increase their value, this is the most important thing!"

After Bao Yugang's explanation, Wu Guangzheng really understood why they fell in love with Wharf, because Wharf's Harbor City is a huge, sustainable development project that can be rented for a long time, but Mandarin Oriental, Xingguangxing, and properties in the middle of the mountain do not meet this requirement at all.

   That is to say, if Bao Yugang agreed to exchange with the other party, then in fact, their Bao family would lose their potential for future development.

"So." Wu Guangzheng thought everything through at this time, and asked, "Daddy, the reason why you told them to think about it is actually because we are going to launch a takeover war against Wharf later. Are you ready to go out?"

  At this time, Bao Yugang finally showed the satisfied smile that Wu Guangzheng expected, and said, "Not bad!"

"Ah Zheng, after we go back, we will immediately start contacting overseas relations to sell oil tankers shipping around the world. My method of delaying won't last too long. Niu Bijian and Bao Fuda are both very smart people, I believe They will figure out the key soon!"

  Wu Guangzheng once again had something he didn't understand, and asked, "Daddy, didn't Chu Huan promise us to provide us with a loan before?"

Bao Yugang nodded and said: "A Huan's money is our last card, but before that, we also need to have enough cash. The most important thing is that the price of oil is becoming more and more unstable now. Coupled with the increase in freight rates, I conclude that the cold wave of the shipping industry is coming soon, so now we are not only going to acquire Wharf, but also reduce our own burden as soon as possible!"

  Wu Guangzheng also showed an expression of urgency, and said, "Got it!"

  Hua Renhang, Fengwu Securities Headquarters.

  Du Huilian came here today, and with him, Liu Zhiyuan, the current president of the Bank of East Asia, and Bryant, the president of the Xiangjiang Branch of Alder Commercial Bank!

  Bryant was originally the director of North America's North America Warehouse Operations Department. With the establishment of Alder Commercial Bank Xiangjiang Branch, he came to Xiangjiang to serve as the president here.

   The rest is Chen Tao, the current president of Fengwu Securities!

  After Liu Zhiyuan was transferred to Bank of East Asia as the president, Chen Tao took over Liu Zhiyuan's position and became the president of Fengwu Securities.

  Bryant, Liu Zhiyuan, Chen Tao, and Du Huilian are now the four giants of Jiaku in the financial industry in Xiangjiang!

   "Three, what you have in your hands is the current situation of Yongan Group. I believe everyone has seen it and understand how difficult it is for us to acquire Yongan Group!"

  Du Huilian and others came to Fengwu Securities for the acquisition of Yongan Group.

  Although Chu Huan handed over this matter to Du Huilian, but also need the assistance of the other three parties to complete this acquisition.

"Before, we have asked Fengwu Securities and Dazhong International Investment to secretly acquire the shares of Yongan Group, but as long as the Guo family does not sell the shares of Yongan Group in their hands, then we want to complete the task assigned by the chairman. impossible!"

  Du Huilian preached solemnly.

Wing On Group is the ancestral business of the Guo family, and the Guo family's shareholding in Wing On Group has reached 43.77%, of which Wing On Commercial Management Company, which represents the collective interests of the Guo Family, holds 41.2% of the shares in Wing On Group. The board of directors of Wing On Group Members of the Kuok family hold a 2.57 percent stake.

  With such a huge shareholding, for Du Huilian, the acquisition of Yongan Group is almost an impossible goal, but Du Huilian knows very well that the acquisition of Yongan Group is the most important of the three things Chu Huan told him.

  If I can't complete this acquisition, it's hard to say whether I can keep my current position, but my position in Chu Huan's mind will definitely decline.

  So no matter how difficult it is to acquire Yongan Group, I must complete it myself!

  Bryant looked at the documents in his hand and asked Du Huilian: "How many shares of Wing On Group have we acquired?"

  Du Huilian showed a helpless expression, and said: "In the past few days, Dazhong International Investment and Fengwu Securities have acquired a total of 2.146 million shares of Yongan Group, accounting for 1.18% of the total shares of Yongan Group."

This is where Du Huilian is helpless. They can't buy the shares of Yongan Group in the market with great fanfare, because this will let the Guo family of Yongan Group find out. In that case, the Guo family must know that someone is coveting Yongan Group. In that case, the Guo family will definitely fight back. At that time, their idea of ​​acquiring Wing On Group can only be an idea!

  The atmosphere in the office is a bit depressing, 1.18% has no chance of winning against 43.77%!

  Bryant spread his hands and said: "Obviously, the acquisition of Wing On Group is an impossible task, why not change the target? In Xiangjiang, Wing On Group is not the only consortium that can supplement our insurance business?"

  The acquisition of Wing On Group has the least obvious benefits for Alder Commercial Bank Xiangjiang Branch.

Although they all belong to Jiaku, everyone has their own thoughts, and Bryant is the same. Since the acquisition of Wing On Group is not of great benefit to Alder Commercial Bank Xiangjiang Branch, it will cost at least several hundred million Cash in Hong Kong dollars, so Bryant doesn't want this thing to continue!

  Du Huilian naturally understood Bryant's thoughts, and said with a displeased face: "Of course, as long as you can convince the chairman, I personally have no objections!"

  Bryant's expression froze. He didn't have the guts to deny Chu Huan's order. He shrugged his shoulders, leaned back on the chair, and stopped expressing his opinion.

   In fact, this is also a silent protest.

  Du Huilian glanced at Bryant's reaction, didn't say anything, but looked at Liu Zhiyuan and Chen Tao, and continued to speak: "Both, what do you think about this matter?"

  Compared to Bryant, Liu Zhiyuan, and Chen Tao, they have been by Chu Huan's side for long enough, so they naturally understand Chu Huan.

  Although Chu Huan handed over this matter to Du Huilian, since they are asked to make a joint acquisition, it shows that Chu Huan regards the four of them as a whole.

After being silent for a while, Liu Zhiyuan said: "For us now, the most important thing is to get a large share of Yongan Group, which must be at least 30%. Only in this way can we have Compete with the Guo family for the ability of Yongan Group."

Chen Tao also said: "This is not enough, we still need to attack the Guo family from the inside. The entire Guo family holds too many shares in Yongan Group. Even if we acquire more than 30% of the shares of Yongan Group, Still not their opponent!"

  Du Huilian nodded, pointed to the information in his hand and analyzed: "Now the Guo family is responsible for the Guo Quan lineage in the Yongan Group. I think the first thing we need to conquer is Guo Le, the descendants of Guo Shun and others, and the shares in Yongan!"

  As mentioned before, Yongan Group was founded by Guo Le, Guo Quan and other brothers, but at the beginning of Yongan Group's establishment, Guo Le was in charge of Yongan Group's business in his hometown, and Guo Quan was in charge of Yongan Group's business in Xiangjiang.

   Later, as Xiangjiang's economy took off, the value of the properties held by the company doubled, and Guo Quan Yifang's net worth soared.

  Even when Guo Quan passed away, on his epitaph it was written: Establish Yong'an column!

But in fact, the predecessor of Yongan Group, the establishment of Yongan Fruit Bar has nothing to do with Guo Quan. He was still living a farming life in Zhuxiuyuan Township at that time. Take refuge.

It's just that with the development of Xiangjiang Yongan Group becoming stronger and stronger, many people attribute all the credit to him, mistakenly thinking that Yongan Group was founded by him, while Guo Le, the real leader in the entrepreneurial period, was rarely mentioned, and was even completely dismissed. forgotten.

Chen Tao said: "But according to the information disclosed now and the information we have obtained from the investigation department of Jiaku, the descendants of Guo Quan, Guo Shun and others do not hold many shares in Yongan Group, and these people are no longer in Xiangjiang. One is that obtaining their shares does not satisfy the shares we need, and it is not easy to find them.”

  Liu Zhiyuan also said worriedly: "The most worrying thing is that after our people contact them, they will tell Guo Linshan what we think!"

  Guo Linshan is the fourth son of Guo Quan. She is currently the chairman of the board of directors of Yongan Group and the second generation of the Guo family.

  Chen Tao and Liu Zhiyuan's worries made the scene fall into silence again.

At this time, Bryant spoke up and said: "I think no matter how hard they are to find and how many shares they hold, we should find them and buy the shares of Wing On Group from them. And bought it at any cost.

  Because only in this way can the unity of the Guo family be truly broken! "

  Du Huilian's eyes lit up, and he said, "That's right, what Bryant said is very reasonable!"

   After finishing speaking, Du Huilian still gave Bryant a thankful look.

Bryant accepted Du Huilian's thanks frankly. Although he didn't think the acquisition of Wing On Group was a good deal, as the four of them said just now, this matter was settled by Chu Huan, so it doesn't matter whether they are It's not about approving this business, it has to be done.

  So after adjusting his mentality, Bryant is also seriously studying the possibility of acquiring Wing On Group!

   "In addition to Guo Le, Guo Shun's descendants, there is actually one more thing we can consider!" Bryant continued.

  Du Huilian, Liu Zhiyuan, and Chen Tao looked at Bryant at the same time, and Du Huilian even asked, "That thing?"

Bryant pointed to a passage in the information document about Wing On Group, and said: "When the Xiangjiang stock market crashed in 1973, the third generation of the current Guo family got into trouble. At that time, a company called Poly Engineering was in charge of Li Baoluo, a man who failed to speculate in stocks, used illegal means to deal with financial difficulties, and was sued in court.

  As directors of this company, Guo Zhiyong and Guo Zhiframe were also involved, and they were in the dock with 11 people including Paul Lee.

  By 1976, Paul Lee was convicted of the crime, while Guo Zhiyong and Guo Zhiframe were not guilty of the crime.

  After this incident, not only were Guo Zhiyong and Guo Zhiframe not punished by the company, Guo Zhiframe was even promoted to the general manager of Yongan Bank.

  Although there is no follow-up to this matter, I think there must be some people who are unhappy. "

   Now, the Guo family has come to the third generation, and Guo Zhiquan is the generation.

When Guo Quan was alive, he originally wanted to arrange for his eldest son, Guo Linshuang, to take over the Wing On Group, but the situation was turbulent at that time, and Guo Linshuang failed to succeed in his career. Therefore, when Guo Quan was alive, his second son, Guo Linbao, took over the Wing On Group and served as the chairman of the board of directors of the Wing On Group. .

  However, in 1971, Guo Linbao died of a sudden illness, and then the chairman of the board of directors of Wing On Group was taken over by Guo Quan, the fourth son, Guo Linshan.

  Now the most outstanding three generations of the Guo family is Guo Linbao's son, Guo Zhiquan. When Guo Linbao was ill, Guo Zhiquan, who was working at IBM, was recalled to Xiangjiang and arranged to work at Yongan Life Insurance.

  Guo Zhiframe that Bryant mentioned just now is Guo Zhiquan's younger brother.

   "The relationship within the Guo family, let me investigate!"

  The four of them are very smart people, and after Bryant expressed his thoughts, the other three knew what they should do.

  Chen Tao took the initiative to take the responsibility of investigating the internal information of the Guo family.

  As the president of Fengwu Securities, he has been in contact with rich businessmen and celebrities in Xiangjiang. It is very easy to investigate the situation of the Guo family.

  Liu Zhiyuan said: "I am responsible for contacting other shareholders of Yongan Group's board of directors and striving to obtain enough shares in their hands."

  Bryant said: "I will have someone investigate the Guo family's overseas relationship!"

  Seeing that everyone has begun to divide labor and cooperate, Du Huilian also showed a gratified expression, although the acquisition of Wing On Group is a very difficult thing for them.

  But the current situation of unity and cooperation still makes Du Huilian very happy. Regardless of how much challenge his opponent brings to him, if he can unite as one, then his chances of winning have improved a lot.

   "Thank you three, I will continue to buy shares of Yongan Group in the stock market, and I hope we can give the chairman a satisfactory answer in the end!"

   "This is the process of acquiring Wing On Group now!"

   Not long after Du Huilian and the others finished their meeting, Xu Yi came to Chu Huan's office with the meeting minutes of the four of them, and told Chu Huan the result of their discussion.

After Chu Huan finished listening, he also showed a satisfied smile. At the current stage of Jiaku, it is no longer possible for Chu Huan to do everything by himself. He must delegate things to the people under him. Now they have not been contaminated by the bad habits of big companies. , Procrastination in handling things, and the situation of shirking each other already made Chu Huan very happy.

However, this is also related to the development strategy of Jiaku. The entire Jiaku was founded by Chu Huan, so Chu Huan has absolute authority in Jiaku. As for the people under him, although some factions will be born, But it will not affect Chu Huan's authority in Jiaku.

  And once these people appear to be in a situation of harming the interests of the group in order to compete for the interests of their own factions, Chu Huan can expel them quickly.

"Tell Chen Tao to ask more about Guo Zhiyong's situation. Although both of them have been promoted after that incident, Guo Zhiyong's promotion is obviously not as good as Guo Zhiframe's. There may be a rift between the two of them! "

  Chu Huan ordered Xu Yidao.

"yes!"

   Also, correct the typo first and then change it, Huangshan continues to code~
