This time, Sumitomo Kimura's acquisition of Yongan Bank was quite smooth, and in less than half a month, Yongan Bank officially became a bank controlled by Sumitomo Bank.

With the joint takeover of Yongan Bank by the Sumitomo Consortium and the Lee Consortium, the run on banks in the financial industry in Hong Kong has finally eased a little, and there is no longer as tension as before.

This also made Governor Youde and the director of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, McBurney DeSean, secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

In the past few months, the pressure on them has been really great, and Hong Kong is currently mainly relying on the real estate industry and the financial industry as support.

The collapse of the real estate sector is now a foregone conclusion, and if there is turmoil in the financial sector, Hong Kong's economic development is likely to regress.

Li Guangyu himself did not pay too much attention to the affairs of Yongan Bank, and only sent a financial officer to the past, and at the same time, Xia Xueping, general manager of the administration department of Tianyu Financial Group, and the deputy general manager of finance of Yongan Bank served as directors of Yongan Bank.

On the morning of December 10, Li Guangyu went to the headquarters of Wing Hang Bank, the change of equity of Wing Hang Bank has been completed, and the bank has also changed its name, and today their major shareholders personally attended the unveiling ceremony of the bank's name change.

The reason for this move is that the current financial market in Hong Kong is not very good, and their presence this time can let the citizens of Hong Kong see the strong strength of the bank.

The second is to expand the influence of the bank, Li Guangyu and they are committed to making this bank a bank on a par with HSBC and Standard Chartered, and in the future, the right to issue Hong Kong dollar notes will no longer be fought for by Tianyu Bank, and the bank will compete for the rights and interests of the right to issue Hong Kong dollar notes in the future.

The name of this renaming is not too poetic, and the name of Wing Hang Bank has officially entered history from today, and Heung Kong Bank has entered the eyes of the public.

Many forces have different interpretations of this name, and some forces feel that the Li consortium and its interest groups are ambitious, and the name of this bank can be seen that they are obviously running for the first place in the banking industry in Hong Kong.

At the same time, some forces have made deeper speculations, whether it is the American consortium, the Japanese consortium, and now the Western European consortium, their core is the financial bank.

This time, the Lee consortium and its interest group are also shareholders of the Bank of Hong Kong, and it is obvious that they want to make the Bank of Hong Kong the flagship of their consortium.

Now, through the platform of the Bank of Hong Kong, several groups have made them more close, and various forces have been integrated together, and a new consortium has emerged in Hong Kong, and the Bank of Hong Kong consortium will definitely occupy a place in the world in the future.

Although the Bank of Hong Kong is still very weak, some people believe that the development potential of this bank in Hong Kong is comparable to that of few banks.

The shareholders behind him are too large for Hong Kong, and the business of these shareholders will gradually transfer to Hong Kong Bank.

At the ceremony, Shau Kee Group, China Gas Group, Heung Kong Electric Group and Cathay Pacific Airways will all transfer their operations to Heung Kong Bank.

With the support of these huge conglomerates, and the support of the Lee consortium and other shareholders, Heung Kong Bank will soon be able to leap into the top four of Heung Kong Bank, behind HSBC, Standard Chartered and Tianyu Bank.

McBurney DeShaun, director of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, also attended the unveiling ceremony of the bank, and even Shen Bi and George Lavin, who were not very good with the Lee consortium, also attended the ceremony.

At present, the financial situation in Xiangjiang is extremely severe, at this time, the Li consortium and the interests of the interests of the Bank of Hong Kong have improved the confidence of the people of Xiangjiang to a certain extent, this time the Bank of Hong Kong not only changed its name, but also the major shareholders jointly injected 3 billion Hong Kong dollars into the bank.

Although McBurney DeSean knows that the injected funds are for the purpose of lending to the Heung Kong Electric Group, this does not prevent it from bringing confidence to all walks of life in Heung Kong.

This time, the Lee consortium, its interest groups, and the Singapore consortium added 500 million new shares to the Heung Kong Electric Group, and all the major shareholders subscribed according to their shares, and the remaining shares were released on the Heung Kong Stock Exchange, and they were snapped up in less than half a day.

At the same time, the shares of Heung Kong Electric Group continued to soar, soaring to 7.6 yuan per share in a short period of time. Now Heung Kong Electric Group is one billion shares, which makes the market value of Heung Kong Electric Group also push to 7.6 billion Hong Kong dollars in one fell swoop.

And Li Guangyu's own part of the shares subscribed for at 6.9 Hong Kong dollars made their market value skyrocket a lot in half a day.

Heung Kong Electric Group now has a lot of money in its account, and at the same time, Heung Kong Electric Group has also reached an agreement with the Heung Kong government on the land in Tin Shui Wai to build a new power station there.

This time, the Heung Kong Electric Group is obviously benchmarking against the China Power Group, where the planned investment of the Castle Peak power station under construction is 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, and this time the Heung Kong Electric Group is also spending 18 billion Hong Kong dollars to build a new power station in Tin Shui Wai.

At the same time, HK$2 billion will be used to expand the capacity of the power station on Lamma Island to promote the simultaneous development of the north and south of the Heung Kong Electric Group.

At present, Heung Kong Electric Group has invited a professional team from Japan to carry out the design, and it is expected to officially start construction in January.

This HK$20 billion project has greatly contributed to the stability of the people of Hong Kong, and the actions of the Lee Consortium and its interest groups have let the people of Hong Kong know their confidence in the future development of Hong Kong.

Li Guangyu said to McBurney DeSean, who arrived: "Mr. DeSean, thank you very much for being able to come to our unveiling ceremony. ”

"Mr. Li, I am very happy to see the development and growth of our financial industry, especially the continuous growth of our major financial institutions, only with your continuous development, our financial industry in Hong Kong can be more prosperous, I believe that this bank will be like his name, will become a symbol of our Hong Kong in the future." ”

Li Guangyu also does not know whether McBurney DeShawn is sincere praise or praise, but he does not care about this issue, he believes that the future development of Hong Kong Bank will not be inferior to HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank.

Li Guangyu said: "We also hope that the Bank of Hong Kong can have that day, but there are some conditions that we do not have in the Bank of Hong Kong, if Mr. Shawn really thinks that our Bank of Hong Kong has such potential, I hope you can help a lot." ”

McBurney Deshawn knows what Li Guangyu is talking about, this person seems to be unrelenting about the right to issue Hong Kong dollars, Tianyu Bank did not take it down, and now it has been transferred to Xiangjiang Bank.

It's just that how can this right be ceded, the right to issue Hong Kong dollar notes can only be held by the banks controlled by the British, and other forces and banks should not think about it.

He said: "Mr. Li, people still have to understand that there are some things that you can't grasp, at least in this time, it's impossible, our British and Xiangjiang governments have been quite lenient to you, and I hope you won't make it difficult for us." We would also very much like to be able to maintain the friendship with you as we are now, but some things cannot be crossed. ”

McBurney DeSean knows very well that at present, the local side wants to win over the Lee consortium and its interest groups, but these people want to take advantage and are unwilling to stand on their side, which makes them very uncomfortable.

However, they don't have a good way to deal with it, and now their country is no longer the empire on which the sun never sets, and the country is also in an economic crisis, and these consortia and families need to invest.

They can't force these forces to the opposite side and make them hostile to themselves, so more often than not, they can only focus on wooing them and letting them not get involved in politics.

Fortunately, neither the Lee consortium nor its interest groups have any intention of participating in the political worries, they are just bent on developing their own industries and will not create too many problems for them.
