Knowing that the two Xiangjiang bigwigs, Shen Bi and Heiyun Baozixuan, were going to hold a press conference at the Peninsula Hotel, Michael Kadoorie immediately arranged for someone to tidy up the banquet hall. It was enough to surprise him by negotiating here, but now he has to hold a press conference here. Hearing the news, his whole body had already entered a state of excitement. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if it is done well and beautifully at this time. Then it is of great benefit to the hotel's popularity, and it can even be written into the history books of Xiangjiang in the future.

The news of HSBC and Heiyun Group's press conference at the Peninsula Hotel at 2 p.m. today spread throughout Hong Kong through the two companies. All the media from all over the world have offices in Xiangjiang and are heading towards The Peninsula.

At the headquarters of Sing Tao Daily, I learned that HSBC United and Heiyun held a press conference together. Hu Xian had a bad premonition, and after all the media stopped reporting, Sing Tao Daily continued to stare at this matter in order to increase sales overseas. She felt that the press conference was anything but simple.

It's likely to be against Sing Tao Daily, but if that's the case. Then it is definitely a good thing for the newspaper, if the gimmick is fried enough, it can completely increase sales.

This time, Hu Xian decided to personally lead the team to the Peninsula Hotel, where he wanted to meet with the heads of two of the largest companies in Hong Kong. Let them know the power of the media, many things can be solved without money.

All the media in Xiangjiang are rushing to the Peninsula Hotel, while Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi are making final preparations together. This time, there are three things to announce.

The first is about accidental injuries and scandals, the second is about the joint suppression of Sing Tao Daily, and the third is about Heiyun's acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa.

There were only two people on the rostrum, and Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi wanted to use this press conference to express their strong suppression of Sing Tao Daily. Let other people with evil intentions take a good look at HSBC and Heiyun's attitude towards the gossip media, so that they must recognize the situation and not panic and fix these useless things.

Michael Kadoorie is now the commander-in-chief of the field, and he must make sure that this press conference is done well. And in turn, he raised the reputation of The Peninsula because he knew what the launch meant.

2 p.m., The Peninsula Ballroom. At this time, the banquet hall was already full of reporters, they were all elites of various newspapers, Hu Xian was also in the center of reporters at the moment, she wanted to face the two bosses of Xiangjiang as a little woman. Let others see that women are not just holding up half the sky, and many times are no worse than men.

The press conference was not specifically hosted by the moderator, but was held by Pu Weishi on an ad hoc basis. There are only two bigwigs on the stage, Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi.

"Thank you for coming to the joint press conference between HSBC and Heiyun Group, which has three contents. ”

"For the injury of Mr. Bao Zixuan of Heiyun Group at the recent HSBC banquet, this was a very small matter. But now it has been infinitely amplified by many media, resulting in serious damage to the reputation of HSBC and Heiyun Group. ”

Bao Zixuan: "I have said everything these days, but this time it was really a misunderstanding." I also sent someone to find out afterwards. The leader of the community, named Luo Yazhang, was carrying a portable knife, which was difficult to spot if he didn't know it beforehand. HSBC has compensated me for my medical expenses in the accident, and I am not a person who cares. This matter is over, and I hope you don't mention it again. ”

"As for the scandal between me and Miss Chen Yulian, I hope that all media friends will refrain from it. I'm a man, it doesn't matter. But we have to protect the girls' name festival, and I hope everyone will stop hyping it. Miss Chen and I met for the first time that day and have not been in touch at all these days. ”

Shen Bi continued: "HSBC will never have similar incidents in its future operations, and our security costs will be greatly increased this year." We hope that depositors can rest assured that HSBC will ensure the safety of your account deposits. ”

Pu Weishi: "The second topic is about the fact that there are still some media who are making up something out of nothing, smearing HSBC and Heiyun Group, and even making personal attacks on Mr. Bao Zixuan. At this point, HSBC and Black Cloud have the same purpose, we are determined to suppress bad media. We cannot tolerate the fact that the news should be truthful and not confuse right and wrong. ”

After Pu Weishi made a gesture of please, Shen Bi said into the microphone: "In view of Sing Tao Daily's deliberate hype about HSBC and Heiyun, the two of us now issue the following joint statement. ”

"First, HSBC has decided to stop subscribing to Sing Tao Daily with immediate effect, and at the same time advises HSBC partners not to subscribe to Sing Tao Daily. If the order is continued, we will downgrade the customer's credit rating. ”

"Second: HSBC will not publish any advertisements in Sing Tao Daily from now on, and advises HSBC partners not to advertise in Sing Tao Daily, and if they continue to advertise, HSBC will downgrade the customer's credit rating. ”

"Third: From now on, HSBC will not lend to all employees of Sing Tao Daily, which means that as long as it is Sing Tao Daily, all employees have no credit line in HSBC. At the same time, those who have loans now will be repaid immediately, including housing loans. ”

"Fourth: We say that we will pursue the legal responsibility of Sing Tao Daily in accordance with the law, and have zero tolerance for unscrupulous media that spread rumors and cause trouble. ”

After Shen Bi finished speaking, Bao Zixuan continued: "For HSBC's point of view, Heiyun completely agrees. Heiyun Group will also advise partners not to cooperate with Sing Tao Daily, and can only choose one of the two for Heiyun and Sing Tao Daily. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the customer's photo. ”

After speaking, the reporters at the bottom all exploded, and Hu Xian's face was even pale. This is the first time that a company has been so tough on the media, and this is the rhythm of cutting off oneself and not dying. After the two largest companies in Xiangjiang made a statement, who would dare to cooperate with Sing Tao Daily now. Many people don't even dare to subscribe, and the black cloud may not have anything to do with them, but HSBC is the quasi-central bank of Xiangjiang, and companies with a little strength do business with them.

Ponweis: "The next step is the equity transfer between HSBC and Heiyun Group on Hutchison Whampoa. It was announced by Mr. Bao Zixuan of Heiyun Group. ”

At this time, the underground exploded, why did he suddenly talk about Hutchison Whampoa again?

However, Bao Zixuan did not pay attention to so much, and has now completed the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa. No one can change the outcome of what has been done, not even the Governor must obey the law.

Bao Zixuan said to everyone in the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel: "After friendly negotiations with HSBC, Heiyun Group acquired 136 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa held by HSBC at a price of HK$7 per share, accounting for 33.4% of the entire Hutchison Whampoa Company. ”

In addition, Heiyun Group also acquired 15.6% of the shares of Hutchison Whampoa Company in the market, and now Heiyun Group occupies 49% of the shares of the entire Hutchison Whampoa Company, and has completed the holding of Hutchison Whampoa Company in accordance with the provisions of the Xiangjiang Listed Company Law. ”

"I can responsibly tell you that Hutchison Whampoa, one of the four major foreign companies in Hong Kong, is now controlled by Black Cloud Group. In the future, we will be in contact with the existing management team and will restructure the Board of Directors. ”

At the same time, Heiyun Group will also increase capital investment in Hutchison Whampoa, and the two companies will complete a good strategic complement in the future. I'm very bullish on Hutchison Whampoa, I think it's a seriously undervalued company, and now it's just not performing as well as it should. It is believed that with the assistance of Black Cloud Group, Hutchison Whampoa will soon be full of new vitality and vitality. ”
