At about the same time, Wang Liming reported to Xu Zhi, "Xu Sheng, the matter in the United States has been settled, the equity transaction of 51 has been completed, the contract and stock-related documents have been carried by a special person, and I have taken a flight to Xiangjiang." ”

"Okay, this matter is finally over, I want to see what Shen Bi's expression will be" Xu Zhi smiled happily and asked, "How many Hutchison stocks do we have at present?"

Wang Liming said: "In the past few days, Li Jiacheng has been busy acquiring the shares of Cheung Kong Industrial, and he can't take care of Hutchison, and I have bought a lot of them in the secondary market, and now we have almost 25 shares." ”

"25" Xu Zhi frowned and said, "So it should be similar to Li Jiacheng."

Wang Liming nodded and said, "According to the calculations of the analysts on our side, it should be about the same, unless Li Jiacheng has additional funds to secretly acquire." ”

Xu Zhidao: "Then now it depends on whether we can deal with Shen Bi, as long as he stops, we will win." ”

Wang Liming nodded and said, "Yes, it's a pity that our acquisition of Changjiang Industrial failed, otherwise Hehuang would have been directly in hand." ”

Evergrande and Li Jiacheng continued to raise prices on the stock market to acquire the shares of Changjiang Industrial, but this acquisition war was difficult from the beginning, because Li Jiacheng held nearly 38 Changjiang stocks, while Evergrande was less than 20, and in terms of funds, Shen Bi was ruthless to help Li Jiacheng, Evergrande did not have an advantage in this regard, and finally Li Jiacheng successfully acquired 499 Changjiang stocks, and at that time Evergrande's Changjiang stocks were only 28

Xu Zhi smiled, "It's a pity, but we didn't expect to really be able to acquire Cheung Kong Industrial, now Li Jiacheng is extremely indebted, our goal has been achieved, and Cheung Kong's current main business is to work with many British-funded Chinese consortiums to develop land, even if we really get a controlling stake in Changjiang, I'm afraid we may not be able to maintain so much cooperation." ”

Cheung Kong's land reserve is very scary, but most of it is in the New Territories and other places, and it is estimated that it will have to wait until ten years later to get a return, and most of the land in Yuen Long, Kowloon and other places is actually a joint venture between Cheung Kong and some old companies to operate their previous land.

Wang Liming said with a smile, "According to our estimates, in order to increase Cheung Kong's equity to 499, Li Jiacheng personally used at least 500 million Hong Kong dollars, which is his personal debt. ”

Xu Zhi asked, "What do you mean?"

Wang Liming said, "When fighting for Hutchison, the funds used were Cheung Kong Industrial's money, but Li Jiacheng's acquisition of Cheung Kong Industrial's shares was his own money, that is, HSBC lent him personal funds, and this money needed to be repaid by him alone, Li Jiacheng's main asset was Cheung Kong Industrial, although some other properties and shares, could be far less than 500 million Hong Kong dollars."

No matter how good the relationship between Shen Bi and Li Jiacheng is, it will not be necessary to repay the money, and if he wants to pay off the loan, the only way is to transfer funds from Changjiang Industrial, but we Evergrande currently hold 28 shares of Changjiang and are also one of the major shareholders, and the company's income is increasingly related to us. ”

Xu Zhi understood, and said with a smile: "Okay, you immediately arrange someone to go to Changjiang Industrial, according to the company law, we are already directors of Changjiang Industrial, and we have to participate in some of the company's policies, and some major shareholders must not be allowed to use the company's funds for private use." ”

Wang Liming smiled, "No problem, I'll go immediately." ”

HSBC Headquarters

Shen Bi looked at the latest newspaper, frowned and pondered, now he has begun to have a headache about the matter of He Huang, from the beginning, he just wanted to cultivate a few Chinese families in Xiangjiang, and use them to make friends with the north, Li Jiacheng is one of them.

But things are starting to change badly, and an obscure new billionaire has begun to rise, and a few months ago he was interested in buying up Hutchison Whampoa shares in HSBC, which he might have considered if he hadn't been negotiating with Li Ka-shing for a long time.

I thought it was just an episode, but what I didn't expect was that after I transferred Hutchison Whampoa shares to Li Jiacheng, it triggered the first Chinese capital battle in the history of Hong Kong, and the funds used were as high as billions, and HSBC was also dragged into the chariot, falling deeper and deeper, so that it is difficult to get out now.

The assistant came over and said, "Chairman, Mr. Xu from Evergrande is here." ”

Shen Bi came back to his senses and said, "Please let him in." ”

After a while, Xu Zhi and Wang Liming walked in, Xu Zhi greeted with a smile, "Mr. Shen Bi, I haven't seen you for more than half a month, don't come unharmed." ”

Shen Bi said, "It won't be long, Xu Sheng, please take a seat." ”

Xu Zhi sat down, and Shen Bi asked, "I don't know what Xu Sheng met today."

Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Mr. Shen Bi, these farces caused by Hutchison Whampoa recently should also come to an end." ”

Shen Bi said, "How to end the law, it is possible that Xu Sheng is ready to give up his shares"

Xu Zhi shook his head and said, "Of course not, I just hope that Mr. Shen Bi can see the current situation clearly, and there is no need to invest HSBC's funds in this bottomless pit." ”

"HSBC's investment strategy is no longer a matter of worrying about Xu Sheng. Shen Bi said, "I heard that Xu Sheng has obtained the equity of Cheung Kong 28 and the shares of Hutchison Whampoa 25, in fact, from the data point of view, you already have most of the benefits of Hutchison Whampoa, why do you have to compete with Li Jiacheng."

Xu Sheng, your main business is in the field of electronics, even if you get Hutchison Whampoa, you can only ask professionals to manage it, why don't you directly accept Li Jiacheng, his business ability is obvious to all"

Xu Zhidao "One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, it's that simple." ”

Shen Bi smiled and said, "Okay, then I'm curious why Xu Sheng persuaded me to give up supporting Li Jiacheng."

"It's very simple, something like this," Xu Zhi handed over a file bag.

Shen Bi took it curiously, opened it and looked at it, his face immediately changed, but he quickly returned to normal, and asked calmly, "There are only a handful of people in the entire HSBC who know about this, and even the board of directors doesn't know about it." How did you know about this?"

Xu Zhi smiled and said, "HSBC has been in Xiangjiang for too long, do you think that this world can only inquire about news in Xiangjiang?"

Shen Bi nodded and said, "Indeed, I was negligent and kept the secret on the Xiangjiang side, but there are more people in the United States who know about it." ”

Xu Zhidao, "So I don't know if the shares of SITC Bank can make Mr. Shen Bi make a correct choice"
