After a long time, Wade Shi Yahuai gritted his teeth and said: "Uncle, since it is inevitable for Dongfeng Airlines to enter the market to compete with us, and it is useless for us to stop it, it is better to find a way to join the shareholder Feng Airlines." ”

"This way we can keep up to date with the latest situation of Dongfeng Airlines. ”

Norman Shi Yahuai bowed his head slightly in agreement, which was also his idea.

He already had an idea in his mind just now.

In his view, Dongfeng Airlines has emerged, and the success rate of the Swire consortium in trying to influence the Hong Kong government not to issue a shipping license to Dongfeng Airlines is very low.

And directly colliding with Dongfeng Airlines is a last resort.

After all, from the registered capital and shareholders, it can be seen that Dongfeng Airlines is very strong.

Strong strength means strong ability to resist pressure, and the fight between Cathay Pacific and Dongfeng Airlines is very likely to put Cathay Pacific in a quagmire of competition and cause huge pressure on the entire consortium.

Since the harm of the fierce collision is so great, it is better to infiltrate Dongfeng Airlines.

Then find a way for Cathay Pacific to suppress it, such as occupying popular routes, forcing Dongfeng Airlines to fly only unpopular routes with a small market, and then Dongfeng Airlines will definitely lose serious money.

As long as Dongfeng Airlines loses money every year, even if Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong have money, they will definitely not be able to bear it.

When the time comes, let Cathay Pacific or Swire Air come forward and find a way to buy Dongfeng Airlines.

Although this method takes a long time, it is better than having strong operability and a relatively high success rate.

In the previous life, when faced with the menacing Hong Kong Dragon Airlines, which was formed by Bao Yugang and others, the Swire Consortium used this insidious method.

Dragonair has not been profitable for a year, and in the end, the shareholders couldn't bear the pressure and lost confidence to withdraw, so that Bao Yugang couldn't hold on, and finally left the market gloomily.

Of course, the defeat of Dragonair in the previous life was also related to its late entry, which was already in 1985, when the economy of Hong Kong was booming, driving the development of the aviation industry, and Cathay Pacific was much stronger.

Like in this life, at this time, Cathay Pacific's strength is not particularly strong, and it has just embarked on the road of international development, with only three direct flights outside Asia.

In this life, Dongfeng Airlines not only has stronger Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong, but also has a BUG-level Xia Yu, so the development of the Swire Consortium in the aviation field is destined to ......

It's a pity that Norman Shi Yahuai is not a reborn, and he doesn't know these things.

"Wade, what do you think of this method......

Norman Shi Yahuai slowly expressed his thoughts.

After listening, Wade Shi Yahuai's eyes were bright, and he nodded again and again and said: "Uncle, your method is fantastic, as long as we drag down the development speed of Dongfeng Airlines, we will speed up the construction of Cathay Pacific's route network, Dongfeng Airlines can only fly unpopular routes, and lose money once you fly, even if Bao Yugang and others have money, they can't support it, and then our opportunity will come." ”

Norman Shi Yahuai said calmly: "Wade, all this is just our idea, whether it can be implemented depends on Bao Yugang's attitude." ”

"And even if Bao Yugang and others are willing to take out the equity of Dongfeng Airlines, then they will definitely put forward harsh conditions, and the equity of Xiangjiang Airport Ground Service Company will definitely be wanted, but the value of this company is too low, and it is far from enough if we want to exchange the equity of Dongfeng Airlines." ”

"It would be nice if he was willing to accept cash, but it's extremely unlikely, so let's not expect too much. ”

"You go to talk first, and when the time is right, I will personally come forward to negotiate with Bao Yugang!"

Wade Shi Yahuai replied solemnly: "Okay!"

At this time, the nanny served the last dish and came over and whispered to Norman Shi Yahuai to eat.

Norman Shi Yahuai had to stop the discussion for a while, and said to his nephew with a smile: "Wade, you haven't had lunch yet, come along, and talk about it after eating." ”

"Okay uncle. ”

One afternoon, Norman and Wade Syawa's uncle and nephew were in the living room to discuss, and in the middle of the way they called the right-hand man to come over.

Considering that I don't know much about Dongfeng Airlines, and I only met with Bao Yugang this morning.

So this time, Norman Shi Yahuai is no longer in such a hurry and intends to be completely ready to do it again.

......

When the Shi Yahuai family was planning and calculating, Xia Yu was not idle here.

First of all, the London side of the United Kingdom.

After more than a year of buying shares in HSBC Holdings from the London Stock Exchange, Bright Fund has taken a 6.3% stake and has entered the board of directors of HSBC Holdings.

And George Berkeley is good at dancing with long sleeves, and the Bright Fund is also very influential, and he has continuously deepened his cooperation with HSBC Holdings, making him very comfortable in HSBC Holdings.

After receiving Xia Yu's task this time, for the sake of safety, George Berkeley started from the identity that HSBC Holdings is the parent company of Xiangjiang HSBC.

Even if Shen Bi has a good relationship with Norman Shi Yahuai, but after all, it is HSBC Holdings who pays him his salary and social status, and he can make suggestions in the face of the parent company's orders, but if the parent company does not adopt it, it still has to be implemented, and it must be implemented in accordance with the requirements of the parent company, such as the requirement of confidentiality.

According to George Berkeley's report.

His proposal to transfer 20 per cent of the shares of Cathay Pacific held by HSBC and 8.4 per cent of the shares of Heung Kong Aircraft Engineering Company to the parent company has passed the meeting of the board of directors of HSBC Holdings.

For the sake of safety, he had already arranged for the staff of HSBC Holdings to come to Xiangjiang to directly find Shen Bi and forcibly carry out the order, without going through the board of directors of Xiangjiang HSBC at all.

The reason why this was done was entirely to let Shen Bi know the news only and avoid others from leaking the news.

Xia Yu estimated that it would not take a few days to be able to reap the results.

There is no problem on the HSBC side, so the only thing that is not clear is the Xiangjiang Song family.

As for the Song family, Xia Yu also grasped the lowest in this whole process.

After all, the relationship between the Song family and the Swire Consortium is too deep.

The Song family holds 13.5 percent of the shares in the Heung Kong Swire Group, 6.7 percent in the Swire Pacific Group, 16 percent in Cathay Pacific, and some shares in other companies.

Xia Yu specially ordered someone to collect the information of the Song family, and he was very clear about the strength of the Song family, which was very low-key in Xiangjiang.

The strength is strong but extremely low-key, which has a great relationship with the Song family's adherence to the scholarly heirloom and the way of keeping the scholarly fragrance.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the Song family was a huge rich man in Shanghai, originally a landlord, and then worked as a foreigner comprador, and then set up a factory, operating a pharmaceutical factory, a textile factory, etc., the Song family's property in Shanghai was based on the street as a unit, and it was definitely a derogation of the Song family to describe it as a building.

Cai Yuanpei, Fu Lei and many other celebrities are tenants of the Song family.

In the investigation materials, Xia Yu also found some interesting relationships.

For example, Song Chunfang of the Song family was the first scholar to study and introduce Western drama and theory in the three years of Xuantong in the Qing Dynasty in the modern theater world, and was the cousin of Wang Guowei, a master of literature in the Republic of China.

Song Qi, one of Song Chunfang's sons, is close friends with Qian Zhongshu, Zhang Ailing and others.

Gossip passed by.

At this time, the head of the Song family in Xiangjiang was not Song Qi, but his cousin Song Bo, the son of Song Chunfang's eldest brother Song Chunwang.

Different from the Song Chunfang lineage, Song Chunwang's lineage came to Xiangjiang to take root during the Anti-Japanese War, and other ethnic groups in China came to Xiangjiang in batches before the founding of the People's Republic of China and in the sixties and seventies.

After the hard work of Song Chunwang and his descendants, coupled with the original rich family background, the strength of the Song family continues to grow, although there is no explosive growth, but it is more difficult to make progress in stability.

"Being able to inherit it to this day has a lot to do with Song Chunwang's ability to judge the situation and assess the situation, but I don't know if his son has inherited his wisdom......"

When the car drove to Kadoorie Hill and was about to arrive at the Song family's mansion, Xia Yu thought quietly.
