Simon Keswick played the emotional card with Li Chaoren, but Li Chaoren did not plan to accept the offer, and the price of 18 Hong Kong dollars per share was impossible for them to accept.

They are not obliged to pay for Simon Keswick's feelings!

In the end, the two sides did not reach a consensus, and they touched each other's glasses and separated.

Seeing that Li Chaoren and Simon Keswick were separated, Wu Jianye smiled and said to Zheng Yutong, "Zheng Sheng, it seems that it is time for us to appear!"

Zheng Yutong said: "Wu Sheng, there is something I hope you can understand. ”

Wu Jianye stopped his steps: "Does Zheng Sheng have any proposals?"

Zheng Yutong said: "Wu Sheng, Yaoguang Group is interested in Land, this is understandable, but negotiation, not only can be solved at the negotiation table, there are some things we hope Wu Sheng can consider, because after all, everyone belongs to the Chinese, everyone competes fairly, each with his own ability, and everyone can accept winning or losing, I hope Wu Sheng will not be misled by Simon Keswick, and finally let everyone fight with each other, and let Jardine finally take advantage." ”

Wu Jianye understood what Zheng Yutong meant, he was worried that Yaoguang Group would be set a trap by Jardine Matheson in the negotiation between Yaoguang Group and Jardine Matheson, and then form a malicious competition with the consortium formed by Zheng Yutong and others, maliciously raising prices, and in the end, no one made any money, but let Jardine earn.

This is also another worry that Zheng Yutong and others don't know about Wu Jianye's bottom line, they really don't know how much price Wu Jianye is going to come up with, if it really exceeds the price in their hearts, will they continue to compete at that time?

"Zheng Sheng rest assured, Yaoguang Group's bid will not exceed 15 Hong Kong dollars per share!" Wu Jianye did not hide, but told Zheng Yutong about his low price.

Zheng Yutong's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, but he said calmly: "Wu Sheng's price ......"

Wu Jianye understood what Zheng Yutong meant, but he still smiled: "I always have to give it a try, in case Ximen Keswick looks at our Yaoguang Group and is pleasing to the eye!"

Zheng Yutong shook his head with a wry smile.

"Lost for a while!" Wu Jianye left.

"How's the talk?" Li Chaoren came to Zheng Yutong's side and asked.

"I didn't understand!" Zheng Yutong thought about Wu Jianye's confident smile just now, and said with some incomprehension.

Li Chaoren was slightly stunned: "Yaoguang Group wants to increase the price?"

"It's not ......." Then Zheng Yutong began to talk about the conversation he had just now.

At this time, Wu Jianye also came to Simon Keswick's side.

"Mr. Keswick!"

"Wu Sheng!"

The two sides don't need to introduce each other at all, although they haven't seen each other, they both know each other's appearances.

"Presumably, Mr. Keswick should already know that our Yaoguang Group wants to acquire 26% of the equity of Hongkong Land held by your company!"

"I've heard a few, and I'm still saying that, as long as the price is right, the door of the land is open!" said Simon Keswick with a smile.

Like other wealthy people in Xiangjiang, Simon Keswick is also very curious about Wu Jianye, and he also wants to know what surprises such a rich man will bring to him!

Wu Jianye said with a smile: "Mr. Keswick, rest assured, Yaoguang Group is very sincere in wanting to acquire Hongkong Land, so the price we give will definitely satisfy Mr. Keswick." ”

"I don't know what Wu Sheng's price is?"

"HK$15 per share!" Wu Jianye said seriously.

Simon Keswick was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed and said, "Wu Sheng, I'm afraid you don't understand Hongkong Land's status in Xiangjiang and his true value, right?"

Wu Jianye's expression was still very serious: "Mr. Keswick, please rest assured, I definitely know more about Hongkong Land than you think!"

Simon Keswick said with a smile: "Since Wu Sheng knows, he should know that the price of 15 Hong Kong dollars will definitely not be able to get the land!"

Wu Jianye's serious expression disappeared, and was replaced by a smile: "Since Mr. Keswick thinks that this price is not suitable, then wait a little longer." ”

Simon Keswick is a little confused about Wu Jianye's meaning, it stands to reason that Wu Jianye met Huang Tingfang two days ago, and today he deliberately found himself again, obviously he has ideas about Land, but why is he so unprofessional in terms of price?

Could it be the capital reserves of Yaoguang Group.......

After chatting with Simon Keswick for a while, Wu left when he saw the night.

"What do you mean by this Wu Jianye?" Simon Keswick subconsciously asked Bao Weishi next to him: "Is the strength of Yaoguang Group in this position, or does he have no idea of acquiring Hongkong Land at all, and the recent operation is actually to lower the price of Hongkong Land?"

Bao Weishi also showed a trace of doubt: "I can't see through this person, looking at his expression just now, he must have an idea about Hongkong Land, but the price he gave ......."

Simon Keswick thought about it for a while, but still couldn't figure out what Wu Jianye meant, and finally just shook his head: "Forget it, if you don't understand, don't think about it, if he really wants to buy land, he will come again!"

At this time, two old men in their sixties walked into the dinner, one was a little thin, and the other was a little rich.

Both of them are also well-known figures in Xiangjiang, the thin figure is the hidden rich man of Xiangjiang, the Tsar, and the somewhat rich is the charter boat king, who is known as the king of the world.

They are all highly respected people in the business community of Xiangjiang, and coming here naturally caused a lot of people to talk.

And Wu Jianye also chatted with the two through Zheng Yutong's introduction.

"The afterlife is terrifying!" The two couldn't help but sigh after seeing Wu Jianye's age.

Through chatting, Wu Jianye found that Huo Tsar was more chatting with himself about domestic affairs, while the charter king was a little dull.

People say that the most profitable thing in Xiangjiang is the real estate industry, but they don't know that the lifeline of the real estate industry in Xiangjiang was firmly grasped by Huo Tsar.

Steel, cement and sand are the three main building materials, and without this, even a "smart woman" can hardly be "a cook without rice".

Due to the special geographical location of Xiangjiang, sand has become a scarce building material in Xiangjiang.

In the initial stage, there were two major sources of sand in the Xiangjiang River.

One is the river beach, but the truck-mounted ships are transported from China to Xiangjiang, and "the tofu plate has become the price of meat", and the quantity is limited. In the face of the booming broom industry in Hong Kong, it is a drop in the bucket and difficult to cope.

The second is the seabed, especially in the shallow reef area of the South China Sea, where the thick sand layer can be called almost inexhaustible. Some people have roughly calculated that the amount of sediment stored in just one sea area can cover the entire Xiangjiang River (including Lantau Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories), and it is relatively much "closer", and it is convenient to take it as you like.

What's worse is that the "sand panning" industry is extremely adventurous. The investment is large and the cycle is long. In general, the amount of labor and machinery required is quite more than worth the loss compared with the sea sand obtained.

At this time, by virtue of his relationship with China, Huo Tsar had the "monopoly power" of export sales in the Chinese Sea and the status of a giant in the sand mining industry, which made Huo Tsar become a leading figure in the industrial industry in Xiangjiang.

This is why the Tsar Ho has a great name.

However, it is precisely because of his close relationship with China that Tsar Huo was not less targeted by the Hong Kong government in the early stage of Xiangjiang.

In the 60s, Tsar Hok built the 'Starlight Walk' building in front of the Star Ferry Pier in Kowloon.

From the first to the third floors, most of the "Xingguang Xing" building is occupied by the "Zhongyi Company", which specializes in selling high-end products from China, and the fourth floor is Xingguang Estate, where the defunct Heung Kong Wax Museum was originally located. Above the fourth floor are hundreds of office rooms that are top-notch. Lease to all kinds of merchants.

I didn't expect it to go against anyone's wishes. Since Tsar Ho is well known as the general distributor of the sea sand in China. It is not difficult to understand that the "Starlight Xing", which belongs to his industry, was harshly treated and harassed by the government when it was rented.

It is said that at that time, anyone who wished to rent an office at the "Starlight Company" received "advice" from the government's "telephone company" telling them to think twice before they acted. Most of the people who do business are greedy for "profit" and forget "righteousness," and they are the most likely to see the wind and the rudder, and who dares to "fight against each other" with the Hong Kong government.

In this case, Tsar Ho had mixed feelings. I had to grit my teeth and sell the "Starlight Line" to Hongkong Land at the lowest price of more than 3,000 yuan.

In the whole transaction, Tsar Huo lost tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Did he learn any lessons? Yes, as the saying goes, "a blind man eats rice balls—he knows it in his heart."

And the charter king was the richest man in Xiangjiang before Li Chaoren, before the cold winter of shipping, the charter king made the decision to abandon the ship and land with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers.

The acquisition of Hongkong Wharf has used tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, and even after the acquisition of Wharf by Charter King decades later, it is still one of the most well-known commercial acquisitions in Hong Kong.

It has become the first source of funds for many Hong Kong cultural travelers.......

However, compared with Huo Tsar, Wu Jianye is more like chatting with the charter king, after all, at this time, the charter king still has 15% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank in his hands!

However, Wu Jianye's strategy for acquiring Standard Chartered Bank is obviously different from Hongkong Land, and he did not put it forward directly, but only proposed that he wanted to find time to visit the two seniors in the past two days.

Huo Tsar and the charter king also did not refuse Wu Jianye's request, and the two made an appointment with Wu Jianye respectively.

With the arrival of Wilson, the Governor's dinner officially began.

As for the positions of Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao, they were not arranged to the first-class round table in the end.

However, Wu Jianye did not react to this, his purpose of coming to the Hong Kong governor's dinner this time had been achieved, and as for sitting there, he didn't care at all.

After the dinner, Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao glanced at each other, but they were not full.

So the two of them sat in the car, under the protection of the bodyguards, wearing the dresses of the Hong Kong Governor's dinner, found a food stall that was still in business and sat down, ordered two bottles of beer, a few stir-fried vegetables, and the food was called Shuchang.

"I have never been able to figure out that those rich people are really full when they wear suits and leather shoes, holding wine glasses, and they don't move their chopsticks once or twice at a dinner party?"

Wu Jianye smiled indifferently: "You think people are going to eat, and people are going to talk about business." ”

"Besides, you're already rich, and richer than many of the people here!"

At this time, Zhou Tao's wealth had already begun to be calculated in billions, and it was still in US dollars.

Zhou Tao said helplessly: "I know what you said, but I still don't like that!"

Wu Jianye smiled and glanced at Zhou Tao: "Let you go home and farm, you like it?"

Zhou Tao stopped talking.

In the end, Wu Jianye defined Zhou Tao: "You, this is hypocrisy!"
