In the face of some problems created by Swire Group in the UK, Li Guangyu did not sit still, and instructed Du Yuemei to continue to contact Margaret Thatcher and obtain the permission to form an airline as much as possible.

At the same time, Li Guangyu also started his own arrangement on the side of Xiangjiang, this time Li Guangyu wanted to launch a sniper attack on the Swire Group on the stock market, Cathay Pacific Airways was not listed, and he had no choice, but there are still many companies under the Swire Group that are listed in Xiangjiang.

Among them is the current main company of Swire Pacific in Xiangjiang, which is also the core enterprise of the Swire Group in Xiangjiang, and they represent the Swire Group in Xiangjiang.

The British Swire Group has a 39.16% stake in the company, which can give Lee Guangyu a huge opportunity, and Cathay Pacific Airways has a 70% stake in Swire Pacific Limited.

In order to control Swire Pacific with a small amount of money, Swire Group issued AB shares in '59 and '73 respectively, and the shareholders of both shares had voting rights in Swire Pacific Limited, but only five B shares were equivalent to one voting right in A shares, and this was how Swire Group maintained its controlling position in Swire Pacific Limited.

Nowadays, Swire Pacific Co., Ltd. operates including Swire Properties, Cathay Pacific Airways, aircraft maintenance, warehousing and trading, thanks to the collapse of the stock market, the company's market value has fallen by less than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the total market value of AB shares on the Hong Kong stock market is only more than 8 billion Hong Kong dollars.

You must know that before July, the market value of the two stocks was close to the market value of tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, and a large part of the factor was the pull of Cathay Pacific Airways on them.

After Li Guangyu came to Tianyu Investment Company, he discussed with Guo Fengtao and Sun Jianping about the acquisition of Swire Pacific Corporation.

Sun Jianping said: "Li Sheng, it is more difficult for us to control Swire Pacific Co., Ltd., especially in terms of voting rights, we are more at a loss, although Swire Group only accounts for 39.16% of the total shares in the two stocks, but most of their shares are concentrated in A shares, which leads to their voting rights are much higher than the actual shares, according to the information it discloses, their voting rights should be more than 50%, even if we have more shares than them at that time, but they are still inferior to them in voting rights." ”

After Li Guangyu heard this, he felt that it was really a little difficult to do, a company issued two stocks, and the voting rights were not the same, and it was really difficult for him to say it. As a result, even if he has achieved a controlling stake in the shares, he does not have much way to do it in terms of voting rights, so it is of little significance to acquire it.

However, Li Guangyu did not plan to give up sniping at the Swire Group in the stock market, even if he could not buy it, he had to scare the Shi Huaiya family, otherwise they would always make trouble for themselves in London all day.

Li Guangyu said: "Fengtao, you will start to eat the two shares of Swire Pacific in the stock market now, focusing on A-shares, once Swire Group has a move, you will give me a high-profile acquisition, and now the funds in your account are enough to eat Swire Pacific." ”

Guo Fengtao naturally has no opinion, the funds in the stock market last time, in addition to the allocation of a few companies, the rest of the funds can be in his company's account, part of it is used for the operation of the investment department in the stock market, and most of the other funds Li Guangyu has not been transferred, and at present, their company still has more than 18 billion Hong Kong dollars of funds, that is, there is no problem with the wholly-owned acquisition of Swire Pacific Co., Ltd.

Guo Fengtao said: "Li Sheng, we will start to absorb the shares of Swire Pacific as soon as the stock market opens tomorrow, and strive to win more outstanding shares on the stock market before Swire Group reacts, and at the same time we will send people to contact some small shareholders of Swire Pacific Co., Ltd., at this time, I think they will be happy to sell these shares in their hands." ”

Li Guangyu does not interfere in the specific operation of the stock market, Guo Fengtao and others are much more professional than him in this regard, and Li Guangyu must master some shares even if he cannot control Swire Pacific Co., Ltd. this time.

Swire Pacific will not be underestimated in the future, especially its Cathay Pacific Airways, if Lee Guangyu's own airline is not approved in the UK, Cathay Pacific will still become the giant existence of Heung Kong Airlines as in his previous life.

Li Guangyu then said to Guo Fengtao: "You check the Xiangjiang Milk Company under the Jardine Group, and see if we have a chance to eat them, the Xiangjiang Electric Light Group now has an absolute controlling stake, we can't do it, you look at the situation of this company." ”

Guo Fengtao didn't expect that Li Guangyu would directly attack the two British-funded consortia this time, Swire is not enough here, and he has to go to Jardine Matheson Group for trouble, it seems that Li Sheng was indeed provoked by the British side this time.

Guo Fengtao said: "Li Sheng, now Dairy International is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jardine Land Group, if we want to buy them, we must first control Jardine Land Group, now this real estate group under Jardine Matheson Group is affected by the stock market, and the market value is less than 5 billion Hong Kong dollars, do we need to snipe them?"

Li Guangyu thought about it for a while, and finally did not agree with Guo Fengtao's opinion, the real estate group will plummet next year, and after Niu Bijian lost in Wharf, he let Jardine Holdings and Jardine Land hold shares in each other to ensure that Jardine Matheson has a controlling stake in each group, and Li Guangyu is really not good at eating these groups.

If it weren't for the fact that Swire Group had Cathay Pacific Airways in its hands and was making trouble for itself in London, Lee would not have thought of eating his Swire Pacific Company, except for Cathay Pacific, Lee Guangyu did not fancy his company's other industries, although he had Swire Beverages, Lee Guangyu did not care much about this.

Li Guangyu said: "Then you don't have to worry about the Jardine Group, you put all your energy on the side of the Swire Group, I don't believe that our actions in the stock market can be indifferent to the Shihuaiya family, the shares they hold now are not safe, even if he has enough voting rights in his hands, he will be worried that we will be able to find a way to deal with it in the future." ”

Sun Jianping himself is actually a little puzzled, now the three major foreign companies of the British-funded consortium, Li Guangyu are all aimed at Jardine Matheson and Swire, why do they turn a blind eye to Wheelock, to put it mildly, Wheelock is the weakest of the three foreign firms, and it is also the easiest one for them to acquire.

However, Sun Jianping wisely did not ask more such questions, these things were considered by Li Guangyu and the senior management of the group, and his current status was not qualified to dictate the development of the group.

At that time, Li Ka-shing's acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa was a sensation, and if he could eat Swire Pacific in the stock market and take the flagship of Swire Group in Heung Kong, it would be of considerable benefit to him.

Sun Jianping also hopes that he can develop towards a higher platform, as long as he can do a good job this time, he will increase his weight in Li Sheng's mind, and his promotion will be fast.

In the past, the manager of the investment department was the deputy general manager of the company, and the vice president of the Li Group, but now after the establishment of the group, this position has been reduced several levels, and he is now completely a group of middle management, and the middle management of the Li Group can not enter, this opportunity he will not let go.
