Li Guangyu made a large number of short selling of companies under the British-funded consortium in the futures market, how could these consortiums not receive the news.

At 9 a.m. on June 3, Newbijian contacted John Schwyath and John Madden to discuss the Lee Group's response to the short selling of their companies.

In the office of Jardine Matheson Group headquarters, these people sat opposite each other, discussing the purpose of Li Guangyu's action.

Niu Bijian said: "According to the current information, the bearish position of Tianyu Securities of the Li Group on our major groups has smashed into 300 million Hong Kong dollars, which is still part of what I know, and I don't know how many agreements have been reached with major investment companies secretly." ”

The Li consortium is now a huge threat to their British consortium, and the total assets of any of their groups cannot be compared with the Li Group, the vast majority of the companies are not listed, and the major banks and investment banks are valued at more than 50 billion Hong Kong dollars.

This time, the Li Group suddenly shorted the listed companies under their major groups in the futures market, which made them very puzzled. Xiangjiang's economy is still developing at a high speed, and no matter whether the stock market or the property market is booming, there is no sign of the stock market slowing down at all.

Even if the Li Group wants to suppress their company, it should not enter the futures market, with the strong cash volume of the Li Group, if it is in the spot market, their group may not be able to withstand it, especially those listed companies that do not have absolute control.

John Shihuaia said: "How do you understand the comparison, and what do you think about the future economy of Hong Kong?"

Niu Bijian said: "Shi Huaiya, Ma Deng, I am quite optimistic about the economy of Hong Kong, I think you are the same, otherwise your group will not carry out rapid expansion in the past two years." It's just that some of Li Guangyu's practices still make me a little worried. It is said that he is not optimistic about the economic development of Xiangjiang in the next few years, and even the real estate company will not develop in Xiangjiang. ”

Although Li Guangyu and Jardine Matheson Group often do not deal with each other, Li Guangyu's vision of the development of the group is still very admirable to Niu Bijian, and this time Li Guangyu's series of operations made him a little less confident in his own ideas.

John Madden is quite confident in the economy of Hong Kong, especially after the stock market crash of '73, after several years of suffering, Wheelock has finally regained the momentum of the four major ocean companies, and he is thinking about the general trend of expanding the business.

John Madden said: "Niu Bijian, I see that your Jardine Matheson Group and the Chinese consortium have lost your confidence, and some of Li Guangyu's opinions are just believed by his allies. If you look at Hang Lung Group, which is also Chinese-owned, but the Chinese-owned family, which has united with a large number of people, snatched the right to develop the property above the subway station from us, and now the development is begins, do you think they have no confidence in Hong Kong?"

John Swhiath is very confident in the economy of Hong Kong, but Swire Group is not as aggressive as Jardine Matheson Group and Wheelock, they do not merge too many groups, but concentrate on some industries under their control, so they are not worried about the Lee Group's acquisition of its listed companies in the stock market.

After listening to John Madden's words, Niu Bijian also strengthened his inner thoughts, believing that there is no sign of slowing down in the economy of Hong Kong in the short term, and he also has some different thoughts about this.

Niu Bijian said: "This time, the Li Group is in the futures market, a large number of short our listed companies, do you plan to eat some of his short orders, since he Li Group wants to send us money, we can't let go of such an opportunity." ”

John Madden said: "Newbijian, we are expanding at a high speed, but we can't come up with too much money, I'm afraid it won't make much difference." ”

John Madden really wanted to vote, but the group's funds didn't allow it, and he didn't have much to do.

As one of the heirs of the Swire family, John Shihuaiya naturally hopes that he can make good profits by leading the Swire Group in Xiangjiang, as a bargaining chip for him to inherit the head of the family.

John Shihuaia said: "I have to go back and discuss this aspect, if the capital is too large, I will report to the local family, and I can only decide after asking for instructions." Niu Bijian, how much are you going to invest in Jardine Matheson this time?"

Niu Bijian said: "Shi Huaiya, I will persuade the Keswick family this time, this time I plan to enter the market with 10 times leverage of 2 billion Hong Kong dollars in advance, and see how much money the Li Group can throw in, and how much money he shorts, we will take as much as Jardine Matheson." ”

John Madden and John Shihuaia really admire Niu Bijian's determination, once they make up their minds, they will enter the market with a large amount of money, this is a list of 20 billion, I don't know if the Li Group has any plans to make so many lists.

John Madden said: "Niu Bijian, I will discuss with the family after I go back, and strive to come up with at least one billion Hong Kong dollars to take over the list of the Li Group with you Jardine Matheson." ”

John Shihuaiya saw that these two were ready to do a big job, and he also wanted to do a big job, but he still had to ask the family's consent, otherwise he would not be able to mobilize so much money.

John Shihuaiya said: "Niu Bijian, Madden, I still need to ask the family for instructions, you can rest assured, I will persuade the family to take out two billion Hong Kong dollars this time to take orders, and see how much money the Li Group has prepared this time to play." ”

Niu Bijian is very happy that with these two people joining, in his judgment, as long as the economy of Hong Kong is as he expected, the Li Group will lose quite a lot this time.

The Lee Group is now a sword hanging over the head of their British-funded consortium, and they are always worried that they will become the next Hutchison Whampoa, and if the Lee Group is pulled off the altar this time, he believes that the British-funded consortium will have a much more comfortable life in the future.

"I'm sure Standard Chartered and HSBC will do something this time, and we can ask them to help if necessary," he said. They very much hope that the Li Group can make a big loss, so that it will be better to cause financial turmoil in the Li Group. The foundation of Lee's Tianyu Bank is unstable, and once it is affected by this, I think HSBC and Standard Chartered are very happy. ”

Shen Bi has contacted them many times before to suppress the Li Group, especially in the establishment of Tianyu Bank by the Li Group. This time, they are ready to join forces with the Li Group to fight in the stock market, and I believe that Shen Bi and Powell Wilson are very willing, and their investment department is also very strong, and cooperating with them will be beneficial to everyone.

John Shihuaiya said: "I will ask the family after I go back, if it can be done, I will contact you, and then we will make an appointment with Shen Bi and Powell Wilson to discuss the specific operation at this time, this time I hope to teach the Li Group a lesson, let him know that Xiangjiang is still the world of our British-funded consortium." ”

Niu Bijian said: "Shi Huaiya, Madden, you go back and have the results immediately contact me, I can contact Shen Bi and Powell Wilson to discuss the plan, as soon as possible to enter the market to take over the list in the hands of the Li Group, now there are not a few investment institutions that are optimistic about the Hong Kong stock market, don't we have not gone yet, the list of the Li Group is finished." ”
