However, before starting the Kadoorie family, Xia Yu still had to know the thoughts of the Swire Consortium.

"Wang Qi, what is the attitude of the Swire Consortium towards our acquisition of Heung Kong Telephone Company?"

Wang Qi immediately replied: "Chairman, I also sent someone to the door today, the situation is worse than yesterday, although I didn't talk about it yesterday, at least I also met Norman Kadoorie, but today our people can't even see Norman Kadoorie in person, saying that they went to Aomen, and the meaning of refusal is very obvious." ”

Xia Yu bowed slightly, and chuckled nonchalantly: "Since these two parties are unwilling to sell, then the other minority shareholders are probably acting on the face of the Swire Consortium, even if we get the equity of the minority shareholders, it is useless." ”

Speaking of this, Xia Yu changed his words and said: "However, these small shareholders, as well as the circulating shares on the market, still have to continue to follow up, and they can buy as many as they can, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat." ”

Fighting with the Swire Consortium, the temporary conditions are not sufficient, and it is just right to kill the chicken of Kadoorie.

Cut off its powerful wings first, and see who else dares to get so close to the Swire Group!

"The Swire Consortium only needs to take precautions, and it will take action against the Kadoorie family, and there are a lot of voices in the Kowloon area!"

Hearing the chairman's order, Wang Qi took out the preparatory plan that had been laid out and handed it to Xia Yu.

"Chairman, this is a hands-on plan that combines our strengths to deliver the greatest blow to the Kadoorie family with the least effort. ”

Xia Yu took it, looked at it carefully for ten minutes, showed a satisfied smile, and commented: "The plan is very perfect, just follow this plan, let other companies help buy stocks, and wait until the right time to announce it in one fell swoop, don't scare them now." ”

"Understood!" Wang Qi said with a smile, guessing in his heart how Roland Kadoorie would look if he knew the truth.

"Clever and foolish, Rorentz Kadoorie did not know what a formidable opponent he had rejected......"

With a sigh of emotion in his heart, Wang Qi took the plan and left the office quickly.

After Wang Qi left, Xia Yu took his assistant and went to Standard Chartered Bank in a low-key manner.

After coming back for so long, he didn't take over Standard Chartered Bank, and in London, although Xia Yu had acquired 84.6% of the equity of Standard Chartered Bank before, the equity was disposed of, and it was cross-held by a number of shell companies, although the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank was still Bright Fund, but the shareholding ratio was only 21%.

The acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank, Xia Yu did not make a big deal of it, and in the UK, it can be low-key, not to mention Xiangjiang, where public opinion is controlled by him, and his media did not report a trace of relevant news.

As for "Ming Pao", "Cheng Pao", "Hong Kong Economic Journal" and the like, they are still having a headache for the markets of Hong Kong and Austria, where do they have the heart to care about a small incident in the UK.

It is precisely because of this that Lorence Kadoorie did not know that Standard Chartered Bank was controlled by Xia Yu, so he dared to reject Xia Yu.

......

"Tuk Tuk!"

Gars Liddell is the chief executive officer of Hong Kong Standard Chartered Bank, although he is only a professional manager and does not hold equity in the bank, but because he has been in office for a long time, he knows Standard Chartered Bank well, runs a good business, and has a high prestige.

He was in the middle of the paperwork when he heard a sharp knock outside the door.

He frowned, followed the prestige, and said in a deep voice, "Come in." ”

After the subordinate walked in quickly, he hurriedly said: "President, Mr. Xia Yuxia, chairman of Jiuding Financial Group, is here, and is now being received by other colleagues, he wants to see you, do you see?"

Ooh!

Garth Liddell stood up suddenly, startling his subordinates who had come to report.

Garth Liddell did not explain, and immediately came out of his desk and said to his subordinates: "Where are the people, take me there!"

The subordinate looked confused, nodded ignorantly and led the way.

Soon, Garth Liddell saw Xia Yu who was accompanied by other subordinates in the reception room on the fifth floor, he walked over quickly, and just wanted to shout "Hello chairman", he saw Xia Yu shaking his head slightly, Garth Liddell was startled, hurriedly swallowed his words back, and said respectfully: "Hello Mr. Xia!"

Garth Liddell's performance really made the subordinates confused, and they looked at each other.

"Hello!"

Xia Yu said with a smile, and then said, "Can you go to your office and say?"

"Absolutely!"

After speaking, Garth Liddell took Xia Yu and the others to his office, and he noticed that Xia Yu seemed to want to keep it secret, so he sent his subordinates away.

After closing the door, Garth Liddell finally breathed a sigh of relief and greeted again with a little respect: "Chairman, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting." ”

"Out of the way, you're doing a good job and not letting anyone else know what you shouldn't know. Xia Yu said with a smile.

Garth Liddell smiled.

After the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank Group, Gars Liddell, as the president of the Hong Kong branch and the Asian branch of Standard Chartered Bank, naturally went to London to meet Xia Yu, and knew that Standard Chartered Bank had changed unconsciously.

When he was in London, Xia Yu told him that his position would remain unchanged, continue to manage Standard Chartered Bank, and ensure that the news was not leaked as much as possible, and he would be instructed when there was something.

Garth Liddell has also been paying attention to Xia Yu's news, and of course he knew it when Xia Yu came back.

It's just that because he remembered the previous advice, although he was itching in his heart, he couldn't take the initiative to visit Xia Yu, so he could only wait for Xia Yu to take the initiative to come to him like the harem concubines were waiting for the emperor's favor.

After waiting for so many days, Xia Yu finally came, and Garth Liddell breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chairman, do you have any instructions for coming this time?"

Sitting opposite Xia Yu, Garth Liddell asked with concern.

"Well, there are a couple of things for you to do. Xia Yu said with a slight bow.

Looking at Garth Liddell, who leaned forward slightly to listen, Xia Yu continued: "Now according to the information found, Standard Chartered Bank holds 35% of the equity of Baoyuan Investment Xiangjiang Co., Ltd., 5.1% of the equity of Xiangjiang Telephone Company, 5.7% of the equity of Xiangjiang Shanghu Hotel Group, and 23.4% of the equity of CLP Power Co., Ltd. ”

"Baoyuan Investment Heung Kong Co., Ltd. doesn't matter for the time being, the other three companies, you use the resources of Standard Chartered Bank's connections to buy the equity of minority shareholders as much as possible, involving the equity of the Kadoorie family, the Swire Consortium and the Liang family, you don't want to move, understand?"

Garth Liddell's heart sank, and he immediately responded: "I understand, I'll arrange it later." ”

After saying that, Garth Liddell hesitated for a moment and asked, "Chairman, are you going to do something to the Kadoorie family?"

For his own people, Xia Yu did not hide it, nodded and said, "That's right." ”

But the exact reason is not explained.

Seeing this, Garth Liddell decisively crushed the curiosity in his heart.

"By the way, how is Standard Chartered Bank's business dealings with the Swire Consortium?" Xia Yu suddenly asked.

Garth Liddell immediately replied: "It was fine before, but since last year, the business volume of the Swire Consortium has decreased, and I have specially investigated, and it is not assigned to HSBC, but to other foreign banks, which makes the Swire Consortium more hidden." ”

However, Standard Chartered also holds shares in many listed companies under the Swire Consortium, although the number is more or less, but there are still many types, and I can't remember the specific situation, so it will take a few days to sort out. ”

Just when Garth Liddell thought that Xia Yu wanted to do something to the Swire Consortium, he heard Xia Yu say: "That's okay, you don't want to sell the shares of the companies under the Swire Consortium involved, and you have to keep inhaling them later, if it increases the operating costs and the difficulty of operation, you tell me directly, and I will deal with it." ”

"Understood!" said Garth Liddell, the pressure in his heart dropped sharply, and the chairman of the secret path was reasonable.

"Go ahead, speed up the efficiency, the time is tight, but you have to be careful not to leak the news. ”

"I understand!"
