Chapter 2 Shareholding in Kowloon Motor Corporation
I slept in the early hours of the morning last night, and now I don't have any energy when I wake up, Xu Ziming sighed secretly.
Xu Ziming glanced at the time, it was almost twelve o'clock, and he had to go to the Kowloon Bus Company, and the time was very rushed. Xu Ziming couldn't help but speed up his movements and ran to the garage, "Young Master, you haven't eaten breakfast yet", Fu Bo saw Xu Ziming leave in a panic and shouted.
"Fu Bo, don't bother, I'll eat outside", Xu Ziming drove away without a smoke, seeing this, Fu Bo couldn't help laughing: "This kid is still the same."
When you enter the Kowloon Motor Company, you will be greeted by the dazzling and eye-catching words of "Kowloon Service, Progress Day by Day".
Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited, a subsidiary of Kowloon Motor Bus Holdings Limited, is the largest bus company in Hong Kong. Until the 21st century, the Kowloon Motor Bus Company has served the people of Hong Kong for more than 80 years, witnessing the take-off and fall-back of Hong Kong, and can be said to create prosperity with Hong Kong.
For Hui Ziming, becoming the owner of Kowloon Motor Bus is the first step in starting a business in the future.
But at first, Xu Ziming planned to invest in Hutchison Whampoa, because the value of Hutchison Whampoa is obvious in the 21st century, but Li Jiacheng successfully took over 95 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa from HSBC with the help of Pao Yugang, and successfully entered the board of directors of Hutchison Whampoa.
In Lei Juekun's office, a group of shareholders of the board of directors saw the Sing Tao Daily and Ming Pao newspapers and periodicals presented on the table today, and everyone looked cold and admired.
"The king of charter ships is still the king of charter ships, the more than 2 billion funds of this Wharf are worth my two worth", Lei Juekun looked at the flashing headlines of "The King of Ships abandoned the ship and landed and entered the Wharf" on the Sing Tao Daily, and sighed sincerely.
"Yes, what is even more unexpected is that behind the king of the ship to become the owner of the Wharf, Xu Ziming, a son of the Xu family, is the home field. Wu Tianlin, who is also the major shareholder of Kowloon Bus, is second only to Lei Juekun by 20.38%, and he is also amazed by Xu Ziming's hundreds of millions of gains.
Regarding the Wharf share transfer meeting held at the Peninsula Hotel yesterday, the entire Hong Kong media reported the results of the business war one after another the next day, and Ming Pao and Oriental Daily did not hesitate to praise Xu Ziming with the words "stock sniper" and boast of Xu Ziming's outstanding achievements in the lion and Botu.
"Brother Birch is blessed, although he died young, but Ziming is so competitive", Lei Juekun and Xu Ziming's deceased Xu Ziming's father is a world relationship, which is in the memory of Xu Ziming in this life, Lei Juekun, a person who is only in his 50s, began to sigh about the changes in personnel.
"Chairman, Mr. Xu is here", the secretary in plain clothes and a professional skirt knocked on the people.
"Okay, call Mr. Xu in", Lei Juekun waved his hand directly and asked the secretary to bring Xu Ziming in.
"Uncle Lei is good", Xu Ziming began to greet the people in the house as soon as he came in.
"Ziming, Wharf is such a big deal, I don't know what you came to Kowloon Bus for today" Lei Juekun didn't go around the bend, and spoke directly.
"Kowloon Bus Bus, Uncle Lei, what do you think", Xu Ziming didn't want to be too angry, and directly talked about the problem of Kowloon Bus Bus.
"Do you also want to take a stake in Kowloon Motor Corporation? ”
Lei Juekun thought of it before Xu Ziming came, but he didn't expect the troubled waters of Kowloon Bus, and Xu Ziming also wanted to participate.
"But you know that although Kowloon Bus has made a lot of profits in recent years, the opening of the Kowloon-Canton Railway has indeed cost a lot of money, and it is still a question mark whether it will be profitable in the future. Lei Juekun really wondered, how could this kid put his goal release on public transportation.
A group of people were not polite, and sat down around a table and politely began to talk.
"Uncle Lei, the stock market has been very good recently, the Hang Seng Index has been rising, but who would have thought of the crisis after the stock market surge?"
Xu Ziming asked questions dignifiedly. At the same time, the information of the stock market data of the recent survey is put on the table.
"Mr. Xu, what you said is right, there is indeed something wrong with the recent stock market surge, but will the shares of Kowloon Bus also be greatly reduced?" Wu Tianlin on the side couldn't help but be idle.
"Mr. Wu, I have asked people to do an investigation into the inherent assets, liquidity, and market value of Kowloon Motor Bus," Xu Ziming continued to add, spreading his hands.
"Dragon Bus has spent a lot of money to build the Kowloon-Canton Railway, which is already a bit financially clumsy, and if the stock market cannot be sustained, the land value of the Kowloon-Canton Railway will also shrink rapidly, and the stock price will fall, and the current Kowloon Bus should inject a large amount of liquidity to properly run the normal business of Kowloon Bus. Financing of Kowloon Bus is now imminent. After beating around the bush, Xu Ziming still returned to the topic.
"However, Ziming wants to invest in Kowloon Bus, how much money will you pay per share price, but there is a little bit of your share holding, which cannot be higher than your Uncle Lei and me, and Mr. Wu. Although Lei Juekun felt that Xu Ziming had some truth in what he said, as an elder who has been crisscrossing shopping malls for decades, he would never allow Kowloon Bus to change hands.
Xu Ziming had already guessed this, and immediately said: "Uncle Lei, I didn't think that Kowloon Bus would have a controlling stake, on the contrary, as long as I could acquire 15% of the shares." Xu Ziming's words interrupted everyone's doubts.
"Na Ziming, since you want 15% of the shares, you must have counted the amount of shares. "Lei Juekun still needs to remind one or two.
"Uncle Lei rest assured, Kowloon Bus I paid a high amount of 200 million to collect the shares of shareholders, which seems to be a loss for me, and undoubtedly raises the stock price of Kowloon Bus. This also facilitates the commercial speculation of Kowloon Bus. In the face of Lei Juekun's pertinence, Xu Ziming also said his thoughts.
Most of the shareholders present were really surprised to hear that 200 million yuan, and they all had the idea of selling their thin shares.
However, for some people who are very optimistic about Kowloon Bus Corporation, it is indeed worth the price. If Xu Ziming really used 200 million to buy this 15% stake, then Xu Ziming, the third place in Kowloon Bus, is firmly seated.
A group of people enthusiastically wanted to see it, and the two major shareholders of Lei Juekun and Wu Tianlin nodded and signaled, Xu Ziming knew that the transaction was negotiated.
"Uncle Lei, I look at this matter of share trading, just deal with it in the next few days, and I will let my lawyers and consultants make reasonable arrangements for the next share purchase of Kowloon Company. ”
After Wu Tianlin and a group of shareholders left the office one after another, Lei Juekun left Xu Ziming alone, as a veteran rich man, Lei Juekun also habitually lit a cigarette, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Ziming, you kid looks at you honestly, but I didn't expect to play stocks and invest in the company again, which really impressed Uncle Lei."
