Chapter 70: Henry's Operations 2

PS: Thank you for reading!

The sales volume of the "Outlook Financial Daily" on Wednesday morning exceeded Henry's expectations, and this kind of real sales volume doubled the value of Henry's "selling favors" yesterday.

The latest net value of Gold No. 1 Fund released on Wednesday rose by 9.3%, which is the result of being suppressed by Henry by 30% of the real increase.

At 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Henry received a call from Ms. Catherine of Lookout Magazine to report good news and thanks.

Today's "Outlook Financial Daily" is not only a hot retail, but also the number of long-term bookings of customers has also soared by 13,000 before 10 a.m. This is an excellent achievement that makes all the staff of Outlook Magazine happy. In the voice of the phone, Henry clearly felt the joy of Lady Catherine.

The good news of the "selling favors" proposal came to Henry's delight.

But Henry's good mood didn't last long. At 11 a.m., the news arrived. Victory Securities' latest listing application was once again rejected by the Hong Kong Government's Financial Secretary. The reasons for the rejection, as always.

Such news ruined the good mood, which made Henry furious. Peter was called, and immediately a counterattack was discussed.

In this counterattack, Henry decided to pay a certain amount of benefits to make things difficult for the Hong Kong government's financial secretary.

In response to Henry's decision, Peter also agreed with his enemies. And for making things bigger, Peter is very fond of the suggestion that he doesn't think it's a big deal, and since he wants to make things bigger, he must carry out a comprehensive crackdown.

In terms of news exposure, it should not be limited to the media in Hong Kong, but invite the world's major well-known media to participate in the report and expand the influence of the matter.

Legally, several world-renowned barristers were invited to form a team of lawyers to sue the Hong Kong Government Financial Secretary for malfeasance and apply to the court for a refund of tax payments.

At the same time, a secret and well-known private detective agency was invited to conduct a secret financial investigation of the relevant personnel of the Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Government.

In addition to these, it is also necessary to directly attack the leader behind the scenes, Jardine Matheson. That is, on the issue of Wharf's tender offer, he agreed with Andrew's idea and directly issued a compulsory tender offer to privatize Wharf.

At the same time, don't we have a 10.1% stake in Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson? We can ask an accounting firm to help audit the financial situation of Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson. Regardless of the outcome of the audit, it is also disgusting to mess around.

Henry, too, was so angry that he agreed to Peter's suggestion without thinking. "Okay, get started, Peter, you're in charge of contacting the world's media and private detective agencies outside of Hong Kong. I am responsible for liaising with the lawyer team and the accounting firm. ”

After sending Peter away, Henry called his secretary and immediately arranged to contact the lawyer team and the accounting firm.

After a while, Henry's mind gradually cleared up and his reason returned. Thinking about his impulsive actions just now, I can't help but feel a little self-blame. I thought carefully about my impulsive arrangement.

There is no problem with the arrangement of several matters and the general direction. But the impulsive arrangement just now did not explain to Peter the degree of achievement of the goal and the cost. Peter had to be informed as soon as possible and given him a clear range of what he could achieve and how much he would cost.

Henry, who returned to his senses, immediately contacted Peter and clearly explained the degree of achievement of the goal and the scope of the cost.

Returning to the arrangement on my own side, I asked an accounting firm to help audit the financial situation of Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson, which was no problem.

In the matter of inviting a team of lawyers, it is necessary to communicate with them first to understand the malfeasance of the financial secretary of the Hong Kong government, as well as the possibility of filing an application for tax refund to the court.

And discuss the degree of achievement of the goal and the scope of the cost, and then talk about the follow-up.

After these arrangements have a basic eyebrow, they have to be reported to Andrew, and his consent must be obtained before they can be implemented.

Henry is making arrangements for a counterattack. At the same time, the senior management of the Jardine Matheson Group is gathering to celebrate.

The reason is that Charlie, who is far away in New York, sent good news this morning. The futures gold investment presided over by him has turned losses into profits.

"Finally, we have made up for the big hole in February's losses. At the same time, a consensus has been reached that professional matters must be controlled by professionals!" The senior management of the Jardine Matheson Group finally let go of the heavy worries they had been carrying out for several months.

The senior executives of the Jardine Group, who have come down in their leisure time, have fully recovered their hearts as wolves, and they have begun to bubble up the black water and calculate others.

First of all, in the previous paragraph, in order to put an end to the aftermath of Shengli Securities, meddling in the affairs of the two companies, Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson. At that time, they had to pay a lot of price for their interests, unite some small shareholders, and form a 51% interest community to jointly boycott Shengli Securities.

And the price of the benefits promised to those small shareholders at that time will be fulfilled.

Now, the biggest weakness of the family, the big hole of investment losses, has been filled, and its strength has recovered. At that time, the urgent matter had passed, and then to those small shareholders, the full benefit price promised at that time, the senior management of the Jardine Matheson Group was a little unwilling.

Therefore, once proposed, delaying the fulfillment of the benefits promised to minority shareholders at that time became the consensus of the senior management of Jardine Matheson. As for when it will be delayed, the initiative is in the hands of Jardine Matheson.

The earth dog wants to get delicious fat meat from the mouth of the wolf, and it is easy to think about beauty!

As for the dissatisfaction of the small shareholders, what can they do? Protest? Jokes! The wicked are never afraid of any verbal protest and slander.

Will that happen, those disgruntled minority shareholders turn to join forces with Victory Securities. Now that the Jardine Matheson Group has recovered its strength, it is no longer afraid of challenges.

Besides, those two-faced small shareholders want to unite, and people may not be able to value Shengli Securities?

The latest net value of Gold No. 1 Fund released on Thursday rose by 8.6%, agreeing that it was the result of being suppressed by Henry by 30% of the real increase.

On Thursday, the Outlook Financial Daily arranged to print 150,000 copies, finally barely meeting the market's demand. Moreover, the number of long-term bookings on Wednesday also soared to 30,000 per day.

Together with the 50,000 copies/day booked by Victory Securities, a total of 80,000 copies/day of long-term booking customers. Combined with the number of retail sales, daily sales of 100,000 copies/day are not a problem. "Outlook Financial Daily" is already one of the top three daily newspapers in Hong Kong in terms of sales.

As the organizer of the "Outlook Financial Daily", the reputation of the Outlook Magazine has also been greatly enhanced.

The "Outlook Financial Daily" is basically a success. Catherine, a strong woman in a happy mood, began to shift her attention to the "Outlook Financial Weekly".

Catherine was still very interested in Henry's previous proposal to publish Andrew's biography in the financial figures section of the weekly. And began to reverie, perhaps this is an opportunity for the development of "Outlook Financial Weekly".

Well, I don't know how long Andrew was in New York, but I didn't have time! On the weekend, I called him and let him know.

On Friday, the net value of the Gold No. 1 Investment Fund was still up 8.3%. Five days of significant increases. Compared with the net value of the fund last week, the cumulative increase in one week has reached more than 50%.

For a time, the Gold No. 1 Investment Fund once again became a hot leader in Hong Kong, and the scenery dominated the coquettish Hong Kong press circles.

On Saturday evening, Catherine reached out to Andrew, who was in New York, to inform him of the success of the Outlook Financial Daily's launch. After that, he talked about the main purpose of the phone call:

In the financial figures section of "Outlook Financial Weekly", Andrew's personal biography was published and his opinion was sought.

Although Andrew doesn't like to do things in the limelight, but Catherine's kind request, Andrew is not easy to refuse, so he has to agree.

However, in terms of the content of his biography, Andrew's main requirement is to only talk about himself and try not to involve other people.

On Sunday morning, Henry received a call from Ms. Catherine informing him that Andrew's biography could be published in the next issue of the People in Finance section. But it is also stated that the main point, the biographical content, try not to involve other people.

Before Henry and Peter, the second step of the conspiracy "selling favors" arrived.
