Tianyu Investment Company submitted an application to the Hong Kong Monetary Authority to establish a bank, but nearly two months have passed and the Authority still has not received approval. This time, even if Li Guangyu found some connections, it still did not play any role, and these British people from the Financial Authority did not buy the accounts of Li Guangyu and the Li Group, and directly stuck the application of Tianyu Investment Company here.

After Zhou Liang Shuyi and Liu Tianci left, Li Guangyu came to Tianyu Investment Company to discuss the issue of the bank with Yuan Tianfan and other high-level officials.

Luo Qianwen reported to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, this time the Financial Authority deliberately stuck us and did not want us to set up our own wholly-owned bank. After the materials were submitted, they didn't approve it, nor did they give us specific reasons, but they just said that they were still reviewing it, and they were deliberately dragging it out. ”

Luo Qianwen was also very angry about this, so she specially asked Luo Cheng to see what the situation was.

Li Guangyu asked Yuan Tianfan, "Tianfan, do you have any other plans for us to be able to control a bank as a sole proprietorship?"

After Yuan Tianfan came back, he has been paying attention to this matter, and it is currently difficult for the Li Group to build its own bank with the approval of the Monetary Authority, but this time it is a lot of British-funded consortiums to help to isolate the Li Group from the banking industry, but fortunately, the Li Group now controls Wing Hang Bank.

This time, HSBC and Standard Chartered, two senior executives in Hong Kong, who have the right to issue Hong Kong dollars, contacted the director of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, McBurney DeSean, and strongly opposed the establishment of the Li Group's own bank, on the grounds that it was to avoid turmoil in Hong Kong Finance.

Jardine Matheson's New Bikin, Wheelock's John Madden and Swire Group's John Schweyer have all contacted McBurney de Shaun to express concern and do not want the Monetary Authority to approve the Lee Group's application to establish a bank.

Today's Xiangjiang British-funded consortium feel that the Li Group is too much of a threat to them, if the Li Group is allowed to own the bank as a sole proprietorship, with the support of the bank's unlimited financial resources, who knows whether their companies will become the target of his attack, and the battle between Jardine Matheson and the Li Group last year is still in mind.

In particular, Shen Bi, the head of HSBC, now has a feeling of raising tigers, and originally thought that he would win over Li Guangyu, hoping that the Li Group would be able to bring rich returns to his bank after it grows.

Facts have also proved that it has indeed brought good benefits to HSBC, in recent years and the cooperation with the Li Group, HSBC has earned a lot of profits, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, such cooperation ended in only three years, and now HSBC has to face the attack of this tiger that has become strong.

Looking at the development of the Lee Group, the ambitions of the Lee Group are too great, and he knows very well that once the Lee Group enters the banking industry, it will definitely compete with Standard Chartered and their HSBC, and finally snatch their power over the issuance of Hong Kong dollars, which is definitely what the Lee Group hopes to get.

Although Shen Bi and Standard Chartered Bank senior Powell Wilson fought very hard, they had a very consistent view when faced with a group that wanted to share their own profits, and they must not let the Li Group come out and take away the power in their hands.

Yuan Tianfan replied: "Li Sheng, it is estimated that it is a little difficult for us to wait for the approval of the Financial Authority, and the British-funded consortium here in Xiangjiang is more protective of our Li Group, so they are putting pressure on the Financial Authority, and do not want us to set up a wholly-owned bank by ourselves." If it weren't for the Jianing Group incident this time, the Heung Kong government hoped to deal with the matter as soon as possible, and at the same time, Wing Hang Bank suffered a run, and we were afraid that even Wing Hang would not be able to control it. ”

Li Guangyu knows that he has now become the main target of the Xiangjiang British-funded consortium, and for his Li Group, several major British-funded consortia in Xiangjiang have already had a joint trend, hoping to curb the rapid development of the Li Group in Xiangjiang.

Luo Qianwen said: "Li Sheng, what I am worried about now is that not only will we not be able to apply for the establishment of a bank, but I am afraid that we will not be approved by the Financial Authority if we want to wholly acquire other banks. ”

Li Guangyu didn't have a good way to deal with this, this time these British-funded consortiums were deliberately targeting him Li Group, Xiangjiang is still under British rule, and these officials are also British, and they will definitely support the British-funded consortium.

However, Li Guangyu also has some plans, and this time he is going to do a big job in London, and doesn't Standard Chartered Bank want to cooperate with HSBC to suppress him? Li Guangyu will directly buy Standard Chartered in London, but there is no hurry to do this, and he will talk about it when he makes a fortune from the stock market.

Li Guangyu said: "Regarding the bank application, you send people to urge the handling personnel of the Financial Authority every day, let them give an explanation, whether there are any conditions that are not qualified, let them point out, and our reporters and media can also follow up and follow-up reports." At the same time, if you can buy small and medium-sized banks in Hong Kong, you will negotiate and test the attitude of the Monetary Authority. ”

Li Guangyu is ready to use his own media group this time, and he wants to see how the Xiangjiang Financial Authority will explain it at that time, Li Guangyu is really not afraid that the Authority will release the standards established by banks, and if they Tianyu Investment Company cannot establish banks, it is estimated that few banks in Xiangjiang will be able to meet such standards.

Yuan Tianfan said: "Li Sheng, we will make arrangements in this regard, I already have a goal for the acquisition of the bank, this Jianing Group incident has had an impact on many banks in Xiangjiang, Guang'an Bank is one of them, and Mr. Liang Dingbang, who has now taken over Guang'an Bank, is a doctor, and he is not much interested in the management of the bank, I will talk to him about the acquisition." ”

Li Guangyu said: "Tianfan, don't be anxious about your negotiations, now these British-funded consortia must be very close to us, it is estimated that they will be bored and will increase the difficulty for me at that time, and if we don't make a good acquisition, it will fall short, we just drag it out, I think in July and August, they will not have the energy to pay attention to us." ”

Yuan Tianfan is not stupid, as soon as he heard Li Guangyu say this, he knew that there would be something big in July and August, otherwise how could these British-funded consortiums relax their vigilance against their own group, and contact Li Guangyu not only let their real estate group go outside to develop, but even the shareholding group was persuaded to go to Japan to develop the market, and they estimated that in July and August, the economy of Xiangjiang may be turbulent.

Yuan Tianfan said: "Li Sheng, don't worry, I will grasp the time." ”

Li Guangyu then asked Luo Qianwen about the listing of Zhaoji Group, seeing that March is coming, and the listing time of Zhaoji Group is coming, Li Guangyu also wants to know about this situation.

Luo Qianwen said: "Li Sheng, this time Zhaoji Group took out 33% of the shares, our Tianyu Investment Company ate 20% of the shares, there will be 13% of the shares into the market, Zhaoji Group's current market value is 1.3 billion Hong Kong dollars valuation, the total number of shares is 100 million shares, will be officially listed on the Far East Exchange on March 1. ”

Li Guangyu believes that once Shau Kee Group is listed on the Far East Exchange, its market value will soon rank among the top five Chinese real estate companies in Hong Kong.
