The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang Chapter 764

  Chapter 764 Follow-up after returning to Hong Kong (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  London, inside Chu Huan's villa!

  At this moment, Chu Huan was having breakfast with Diana. That's right, it was breakfast. Dinner was finished last night.

   "My people will send you back soon!"

  Chu Huan smiled and preached to Diana.

  Diana nodded, her complexion was still a little rosy, and she said softly, "Yes."

After breakfast, Diana left Chu Huan's villa under the **** of Han Yang. Except for Chu Huan's people, no one knew that Diana came to Chu Huan's side last night, and no one would know that Diana left this morning.

   And Chu Huan is also preparing to return to Xiangjiang after Diana leaves.

   "Boss, Henry Keswick is here and says he wants to meet you!"

  Feng Jing found Chu Huan and reported to Chu Huanhui.

  Chu Huan smiled slightly and said, "Please come to the study!"

"Ok!"

   Then Chu Huan saw Henry Keswick, his former opponent, in the study.

   "Chairman Chu is going to return to Xiangjiang?" Henry Keswick sat on the sofa in Chu Huan's study and asked with a complicated expression.

   "Since the matter in London is over, it is natural to return to Xiangjiang to deal with some matters!" Chu Huan said calmly.

The first reason for coming to London is to solve the political factors other than the commercial acquisition of Jardine, and the second is to pay attention to the Standard Chartered Bank. However, Chu Huan also knows that he has made such a big noise in London this time. Standard Chartered Bank, I think London is going crazy, so after thinking about it, Chu Huan decided to buy Standard Chartered Bank slowly!

But Chu Huan will not give up on this matter, so just now Chu Huan has ordered Ma Jizu, although Ma Jizu will go to Brazil in South America to expand the territory, but at the same time, there must be some people left on the British side. Continue to maintain Chu Huan's relationship in London!

  So these people will continue to buy shares of Standard Chartered Bank on a small scale in the next few years, and when the time is right in the future, they can take it down in one fell swoop, saving a lot of trouble.

Henry Keswick didn't know Chu Huan's plan, but at this time he looked at Chu Huan with helplessness. Although he had accepted the fact that Chu Huan's acquisition of Jardine Land was successful after one night, the acceptance was just Behavioral, not psychological.

   It is impossible to fully overcome this kind of shock without a period of recuperation.

  However, a successful businessman must put aside his inner private emotions at any time and make plans for his own business.

"I know that Mr. Chu always likes to delist and privatize the listed companies he has acquired. Now Mr. Chu's Huaren Real Estate has completed the absolute holding of Jardine and Landmark. I came here this time to ask Mr. Chu if you have any Are you interested in acquiring our family's equity in Jardine and Landmark?”

  Henry Keswick decided to sell his shares in Jardine and Landmark, but in fact Henry Keswick can only sell 10% of their Keswick family's equity in Jardine.

  At the same time, the equity they hold in Hong Kong Land is controlled by Jardine Matheson. That is to say, Henry Keswick actually controls the two groups of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land at the smallest cost.

   But now this kind of operation has also paid a price, so that they have no power to fight back when they compete with Chinese buyers.

  If the Henry Keswick family hadn't participated in so many competitions before, maybe they still have the ability to compete with Chu Huan.

   "At what price is Mr. Keswick going to sell your Keswick family's shares in Jardine?"

  Chu Huan did not reject Henry Keswick's proposal. He really had no idea to delist Jardine Land and privatize it, but he also hoped that his own voice would be heard in the board of Jardine.

Now, Huaren Real Estate has become the largest shareholder of Jardines, and the Keswick family has naturally fallen to the second largest shareholder position, so if the other party can sell their shares in Jardines at a reasonable price, Chu Huan is very happy. There is no comment on this.

  Although this will touch the securities laws of Heung Kong, if it owns more than 51% of the shares, it will propose a comprehensive acquisition.

However, after Chu Huan acquired the Keswick family's shares in Jardine, he could sell it to one of his other companies, or attract more Chinese businessmen to join Jardine's board of directors, so that more people could be added. partner, or even wait two years, and sell it to a certain Huaguo enterprise that came to Xiangjiang for development.

  You must know that at this time, there is no way for domestic enterprises in China to compare with groups like Jardine and Landmark, although their development speed is not comparable to that of Jardine and Landmark.

   That is to say, now that Chu Huan has exchanged the shares of Jardine and Landmark for the shares of a certain company in his hometown, in the next 30 years, the gain of this investment may even exceed a hundred times!

   "The price of 80 Hong Kong dollars per share, as long as you can accept this price, President Chu, we can complete the equity transaction immediately."

  Henry Keswick quoted a price to Chu Huan.

After Chu Huan finished listening, he shook his head with a smile and said, "The Keswick family holds 10% of the shares in Jardine, and 80 Hong Kong dollars per share means that I need to pay a price of 856 million Hong Kong dollars. This price is not appropriate, 70 Hong Kong dollars Per share, this is the final price that our company can give. There is no negotiation. Mr. Keswick, you should know that when the Hong Kong market opens today, the stock prices of Jardine Matheson and Landmark will definitely fall. The price of 70 Hong Kong dollars per share The price is very reasonable!"

Henry Keswick also has his own insistence: "After the start, Jardine's stock price will fall, that's for sure, but you don't need to underestimate your influence, Director Chu, according to your current status in Xiangjiang and Xiangjiang The public adores you, even if Jardine's stock price will fall, it will definitely not fall much, 80 Hong Kong dollars is a very reasonable price!"

  Chu Huan smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then we have nothing to say!"

  After speaking, Chu Huan made a gesture of seeing off the guests, and picked up the teacup in front of him.

   Serving tea to see off guests!

  Henry Keswick had been in Xiangjiang before, so he naturally understood that this was a gesture that Chinese people would only do when seeing off guests.

  Seeing Chu Huan's determined look, Henry Keswick once again felt helpless in his heart. Now that 10% of Jardine's shares in his hands can only be sold to Chu Huan.

Even if it was as I expected, when Xiangjiang opened today, Jardine's stock price did not fall as badly, it was at a price of more than 80 Hong Kong dollars per share, but in fact, as long as there is a large-scale sell-off of Jardine's shares If things happen, Jardine's stock price will definitely continue to fall.

If it is an ordinary listed company, their bosses will definitely not accept such a situation, but it is different now. Now the boss of Yihe is Chu Huan. Maybe Chu Huan is waiting for this time at this time. Yihe He's stock price fell, and then he could take advantage of the trend to buy Jardine's stock price. At that time, would he count as an indirect assist?

  After thinking about all this, Henry Keswick also understood that he had no other choice.

   "Okay, just do what you said, Director Chu, at a price of 70 Hong Kong dollars per share! The Keswick family will transfer their shares in Jardine to Director Chu!"

  Chu Huan put down the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile, "Happy cooperation!"

  Henry Keswick maintained his last demeanor, shook hands with Chu Huan and said, "It's a pleasant cooperation."

  After that, Chu Huan asked Feng Jing to prepare the contract, and asked Ma Jizu to invite a lawyer. Finally, with the signing and deposit by both parties, the Keswick family bid farewell to Xiangjiang completely.

And Chu Huan has completed all his affairs in London. As for the affairs of the Manchester United team, it is natural that the team manager will follow Chu Huan's instructions to complete the affairs that Chu Huan promised to Queen Elizabeth and Mrs. Thatcher. To implement it.

  Chu Huan flew back to Xiangjiang at around 9:00 in the morning. When he arrived in Xiangjiang, the time in Xiangjiang was around 5:00 in the afternoon.

   After coming out of the airport, Chu Huan did not return to No. 12 Mount Kellett Road, but went directly to the Chinese Bank!

  In the Chinese business, Chu Huan met Cao Yunshang, Xu Yi, Jiaku, and a group of high-level Chinese real estate executives. These people welcomed Chu Huan's return with applause.

  Looking at the haggard Cao Yunshang, Chu Huan said: "You have worked hard these few days!"

  Cao Yunshang smiled and shook his head and said: "It's nothing hard, but since Brother Huan, you're back now, I'll leave things here to you!"

  Chu Huan nodded and said with a smile, "Well, don't worry!"

  Although she said so, Cao Yunshang did not go home immediately. After all, she still needs to make a report to Chu Huan about what happened in the past few days.

  The rest of the people returned to their jobs first, and they had to wait for Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang to finish discussing the specific matters of the past few days before participating in the work meeting chaired by Chu Huan.

  Chu Huan first listened to Cao Yunshang's description of the specific things that happened in Xiangjiang in the past few days. Xu Yi added on the sidelines.

   "Chairman, we are in the process of handover with Niu Bijian, Bao Fuda and others, and it is expected that the handover of the two consortiums will be completed within a week."

  Wen Mingzhang, as the main person in charge of this acquisition, took the lead in speaking at the conference.

   After completing the acquisition of Jardine Land, Wen Mingzhang will also serve as the head of Jardine and Landmark, but in order to prevent Wen Mingzhang from dominating the two groups alone, the deputies arranged for him are all people who have gone out of Jiaku.

Chu Huan nodded and said: "After the handover is completed, the biggest task for Jardine Landmark in the next year is to get rid of debts. Now the debt ratios of these two groups are too high, far exceeding the debt ratios of listed companies. This is a very dangerous thing, so I need your management to come up with an effective and feasible debt reduction plan before the group's annual meeting next year!"

  In another time and space, in the early 1980s, the peak debt of the Hong Kong Land Group alone exceeded 16 billion Hong Kong dollars. This is a very dangerous signal.

Although Hongkong Land's debt is not that high at this time, it is actually close to tens of billions. In addition, Jardine's own debt, especially in the previous money-burning war in Xiangjiang's retail industry, made Jardine's debt rapidly increase. Now the combined debts of the two consortiums have exceeded 16 billion Hong Kong dollars.

  Chu Huan will not let this number continue to increase.

  Wen Mingzhang nodded and said, "Chairman, please rest assured!"

   Then Wen Mingzhang asked Chu Huan: "Chairman, most of the debts of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land come from overseas expansion projects. Can we abandon some of the overseas investment projects of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land?"

  Before this, Jardine Land's development strategy was very entangled. On the one hand, they were not optimistic about the future development of Heung Kong and actively expanded overseas business.

But at the same time, they are unwilling to give up the business of Xiangjiang, just like they introduced 7-11 in Xiangjiang. Therefore, Jardine wants both sides, and neither side wants to give up. In the end, they end up with huge debts. Become the first negative existence of Xiangjiang.

  Now that Huaren Land has acquired Jardine Land, Wen Mingzhang knows Chu Huan well and knows that Chu Huan is still very optimistic about the future development of Xiangjiang, so Wen Mingzhang has the idea now.

  Chu Huan did not give an affirmative answer to this, but just said: "Make your plan first, and then hold a meeting to study it!"

  Wen Mingzhang nodded.

  The entire meeting lasted until after ten o'clock in the evening before it was considered over. It was at this time that Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang returned to No. 12 Mount Kellie Road by car!

   Originally, the two of them wanted to go to Mrs. Wu's side first, and take Chu Shifeng over. Chu Shifeng has been staying at Mrs. Wu's side for the past few days.

  But after making a phone call and learning that Chu Shifeng had already fallen asleep, the two of them didn't go there.

   "What do you think of the invitation from the Hong Kong government?"

  At this time, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang had already sat in the restaurant, eating supper.

  Cao Yunshang told Chu Huan that Governor MacLehose invited Chu Huan to the Governor's Mansion.

"It's nothing more than wanting us to maintain the listing status of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land. Anyway, we have no intention of delisting these two groups for privatization in a short period of time. When the time comes, we will just give MacLehose a favor! "

  Cao Yunshang nodded and said, "However, Keswick sold 10% of their shares in Jardine to you. Are you going to hold 10% of the shares privately, or what should I do?"

   In the previous transaction with Keswick, Chu Huan did not purchase their shares in Jardine in the name of Chinese Real Estate, but in his own name.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Now Jardine's stock price has dropped to 77 Hong Kong dollars per share, and Hong Kong Land's stock price has dropped to 51 Hong Kong dollars per share. According to this death, the stock prices of these two groups will definitely fall. Wait for a while. After the stock prices of these two companies reach a stable range, then think about how to deal with the 10% of the shares!"

  With the completion of the acquisition of Jardine and Hongkong Land by Huaren Land, the two groups were re-listed on the Xiangjiang stock market, but naturally the stock prices of the two groups fell.

But their declines are far lower than that of Wharf. There are two most important reasons for this. One is that after the acquisition of these two groups, Jiaku is now in full swing. I believe in Jiaku even more, and the second is because of the previous promise of Chinese Land to pay dividends to the shareholders of these two groups.

  Cao Yunshang said with a smile: "No matter what, we can guarantee our 51% shares in these two groups!"

Chu Huan just smiled at this. It is impossible to keep 51% of the shares. I believe that the Hong Kong government will introduce new policies soon. The current situation is that if a certain shareholder holds shares in a listed company If the shares exceed 51%, it means that the regulations for wholly-owned acquisitions have been passively activated.

   According to historical deduction, in another time and space, after Bao completed the acquisition of Wharf, the Hong Kong government will adjust this plan from 51% to 35%.

  Nominally, this move is to protect the interests of more minority shareholders.

   But actually?

  However, in another time and space, Bao completed the acquisition of Wharf nearly a year later than now, so Chu Huan does not know when this regulation will appear.

   "By the way, I brought you a gift from England!"

   After finishing speaking, Chu Huan put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, got up and went to the place where he put his luggage, found a document inside and handed it to Cao Yunshang.

  Cao Yunshang opened the kraft paper bag curiously, and saw that there was a purchase contract and a transfer contract inside.

  The acquisition contract is Chu Huan's purchase contract of the Romanée-Conti Chateau in France, and the transfer contract is the transfer contract of Chu Huan transferring the chateau to Cao Yunshang's Imperial Fashion Group.

"Chateau Romanée-Conti?" After seeing the contract, Cao Yunshang also said happily: "I asked the Empire Fashion Group to contact Chateau Romanée-Conti many times before, wanting to acquire their winery, but the other party has been Disagree, Brother Huan, how did you do it?"

  One of the things that the Empire Fashion Group has been doing today is actually the acquisition of the world's top luxury goods, which naturally includes red wine brands.

  Although references to 82-year-old Lafite often appear in Xiangjiang movies, Romanee-Conti is actually the top brand in the wine industry.

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "Of course I gave them a price they couldn't refuse."

   Chu Huan handed over the specific operation of this matter to Ma Jizu. In fact, before Chu Huan went to England, Ma Jizu had already asked Ma Jizu to contact the Romani-Conti Winery.

Cao Yunshang looked at Chu Huan happily. The Imperial Fashion Group successfully acquired the Romanee-Conti Chateau. The impact it brought not only allowed the Empire Fashion Group to increase its scope in the wine industry, but more importantly, it was a luxury group. Generally speaking, only when their products are all the top luxury goods in the world can they highlight their own luxury attributes.

   When everyone subconsciously begins to recognize the luxury attributes of the Imperial Fashion Group, even if the Empire Fashion Group launches a sack, it will be a silver-collared world-fashion luxury.

  The attributes of luxury goods are actually piled up by top luxury brands with a long history.

   "Just right, I'm planning to go to France next year, and I can also go to see the situation of the Romanee-Conti winery."

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "But you should send someone over to take over this winery first, and Ma Jizu's people are still watching over there."

  Cao Yunshang nodded.

  Next day!

  Chu Huan came to Hong Kong Governor's Mansion and met Hong Kong Governor MacLehose!

   "Mr. Chu, you really scared the whole Xiangjiang this time!" MacLehose said with a smile after seeing Chu Huan.

   "The governor of Hong Kong is too polite. I haven't said sorry to you, the governor of Hong Kong, for what happened before. I hope you don't take offense!"

  Chu Huan preached politely.

MacLehose knew that what Chu Huan was talking about was the stockholders' protests and demonstrations at the Governor's Mansion in Hong Kong. To be honest, he was still a little dissatisfied when he heard Chu Huan bring this up. There is no light.

  But from time to time, now that Chu Huan is in Xiangjiang, he can no longer look at it alone with the eyes of a businessman, and MacLehose is well aware of the status of both of them in Xiangjiang.

"Haha, what am I supposed to do? It's just a trivial matter. It doesn't matter. Isn't the Governor of Hong Kong pleading for the people of Xiangjiang? They came to me, and it must be caused by the Government of Hong Kong's failure to do some things properly. , what does it have to do with President Chu!"

  Chu Huan also smiled at this. After the two parties exchanged pleasantries, MacLehose explained the first thing he had invited Chu Huan over.

   That is about maintaining the status of Jardine and Landmark as listed companies in Hong Kong.

In this regard, Chu Huan, who had already had his heart on his desk, just as he said with Cao Yunshang, said smoothly that Huaren Real Estate recognized the status of the two listed companies of Jardine and Landmark very much, and would not delist as a privately owned company. of!

  After receiving Chu Huan's guarantee, MacLehose finally breathed a sigh of relief.

   Next, MacLehose asked Chu Huan about Xiangjiang's economic development. In the end, the two sides had a good talk and ended the meeting.

   When Chu Huan returned to the Huarenhang, he saw Gu Chengxi was already waiting here.

   "Why are you here?" After seeing Gu Chengxi, Chu Huan asked, "Is there anything we can't talk about after we get home?"

  Gu Chengxi brought Chu Huan a bottle of Coke in the refrigerator, and then said with a smile: "Of course I have to come to the company to talk about business matters!"

In fact, Gu Chengxi has not seen Chu Huan for a while, and Gu Chengxi also knows that Chu Huan will be very busy after returning to Xiangjiang. Why not come to see Chu Huan directly in the name of the company now.

   "What business?" Chu Huan asked with a smile.

Gu Chengxi said: "Although Huaren Real Estate and Jardine Land are still in the process of handover, this acquisition is indeed over, so the newspaper wants to do an exclusive interview with Brother Huan. I know you will not agree Yes, so I wondered if I could do an exclusive interview with Wen Mingzhang, or He Bingguang from Zhulu Real Estate?"

   After completing the acquisition of Landmark, there is actually one more important thing for Chu Huan.

   That means Chu Huan has become the undisputed King of Xiangjiang!

In the past, although Zhulu Real Estate surpassed Landmark early in terms of site size, especially in terms of assets, but only for Hongkong Land's properties in Central, no one has ever compared Xiangjiang Real Estate, the jewel in the crown, to Competing for real estate, this reputation still belongs to Hongkong Land.

   Who made Central the economic center of Heung Kong!

But it's different now. Chinese Land acquired Landmark, and Landmark was merged into Jiaku's business system. Think about Zhulu Real Estate's investment in East Tsim Sha Tsui, Zhulu Commercial Center, Huangpu Center, and Hehe International-Wheelock's investment in East Tsim Sha Tsui. Investments in Kowloon, Hong Kong Island, and Zhang's property in Causeway Bay acquired by Zhulu Real Estate, and now Landmark.

   It can be said that at this time, the commercial land of the Jiaku Department has covered the entire Xiangjiang River.

  The coverage area has already surpassed any company in the history of Xiangjiang.

  At this time, it is the most prosperous period of Xiangjiang real estate industry, and "Zhenbao" naturally wants to make a report on this aspect.

  However, Gu Chengxi also knows that Chu Huan has now handed over all appearances to the heads of various companies, and Chu Huan is continuing to reduce the number of times his name appears in front of the public.

Even this time, regarding the acquisition of Jardine and Hong Kong Land by Huaren Real Estate, all the major media in Hong Kong have been notified by Jiaku, and they all report this matter in the name of Jiaku or Huaren Real Estate. Don't bring Chu Huan name.

  So even though Gu Chengxi is Chu Huan's woman and "True News" is owned by Jiaku, Gu Chengxi never imagined that Chu Huan would accept this interview.

   Not to mention, Gu Chengxi himself is very much in favor of Chu Huanxia's practice of staying behind the scenes calmly.

After a brief consideration, Chu Huan agreed to Gu Chengxi's proposal. Although Chu Huan himself did not care much about the decline in the stock prices of Jardine and Landmark during this period of time, in order to ensure the commercial status of these two groups, Chu Huan still needed The stock prices of these two groups can be maintained in a reasonable range.

  So it is also appropriate for Wen Mingzhang to appear in the newspaper at this time.

"No problem, I will let Wen Mingzhang and He Bingguang cooperate with you on this matter, but the interview time should be decided according to the time between Wen Mingzhang and He Bingguang, especially Wen Mingzhang. And, things about Landmark will definitely be very busy!"

  Received Chu Huan's affirmative answer, Gu Chengxi immediately smiled and said, "That's no problem!"

  After talking about the business, Chu Huan came to Gu Chengxi's side, put his hands on Gu Chengxi's shoulders, then slowly slid down, and said with a smile: "We seem to have something that we haven't done for a long time!"

   Gu Chengxi blushed slightly, and instantly understood what Chu Huan meant.

  When Gu Chengxi left Chu Huan's office, her hair was a little messy, and Chu Huan called Xu Yi in.

When I was in London before, my friends from Xiangjiang were able to contribute, and even if there was no such thing, now that the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark has been completed, according to the usual practice, Chu Huan will also hold a dance party , thank you all!

   This matter is naturally to be handed over to Xu Yi!

   As for who is responsible for the specific work, that is Xu Yi's arrangement!

   Also, Huangshan continues to code words~
