"Then I wonder if Wing Hang Bank can temporarily approve an emergency loan with me?" Lei Juekun also knew the other party's purpose, so he asked calmly.

Lin Haifeng said with a smile: "Of course this is not a problem, but I have no right to call the shots in this matter, Lei Sheng has to negotiate with our chairman." ”

Lei Juekun nodded and agreed, and then asked, "Then I don't know if Lin Sheng has found out who is buying?"

Lin Haifeng smiled with satisfaction: "Who is secretly buying the shares of Kowloon Bus, we haven't found out yet, but we estimate that we will find out soon!"

Lei Juekun was a little confused, and asked, "I'll find out soon?"

Lin Haifeng said: "In fact, our bank can find the abnormality of Kowloon Bus stock, also because in recent days, the stock trading volume of Kowloon Bus has become larger and larger, and there are two or three million funds entering the market every day, and it is difficult not to find out in this case, and according to the previous transaction records, it is obvious that the other party has either lost patience or is ready for a public offer." ”

"Then prepare the car and go to your bank headquarters. Lei Juekun reacted quickly and ordered the secretary next to him to prepare to go to the headquarters of Wing Hang Bank.

Founded in 1937, Wing Hang Bank has a history of more than 40 years, and thanks to the efforts of two generations of the founding family, the Feng family, Wing Hang Bank has become one of the leading Chinese banks in Hong Kong, second only to the Bank of East Asia, which was acquired by Xu Zhi.

In addition to the normal deposit and loan business, the bank has also developed a securities department that specializes in serving many listed companies in Hong Kong.

However, this kind of cooperative relationship can bring the relationship with these companies closer, which can bring a large amount of deposit flow and loan business, which is also the survival of most banks in Hong Kong, even HSBC, which also has a special service for listed companies, Duoli Securities, which provides professional advice for the company's listing or mergers and acquisitions.

Lei Juekun's Rolls-Royce car soon arrived at the door of Wing Hang Bank, and Feng Songping, chairman of Wing Hang Bank, was already waiting at the door of the bank in person.

"Welcome, Leisheng. After Lei Juekun got out of the car, Feng Songping shook hands with a smile and smiled.

Lei Juekun shook it back and said with a smile: "Feng Sheng, this time you are still powerful enough to discover this crisis of my company!"

"Lei Sheng, in fact, it's nothing, this is what we should do. Feng Songping pushed his heavy glasses and said, "Please." ”

The two soon arrived at the president's office on the top floor of the bank building.

"I just got the new news that it is the securities company under Standard Chartered Bank that has been secretly buying the shares of Kowloon Motor Corporation. After both of them sat down, Feng Songping said.

"Standard Chartered Bank?" Lei Juekun was stunned, but he didn't panic and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Sure!" Feng Songping nodded and said: "Standard Chartered contacted a shareholder of Kowloon Motor Bus, intending to buy his shares at a high price, but the price was not negotiated. ”

"Standard Chartered Bank is already contacting KMB's shareholders, which means that it doesn't make sense to just look at the trading volume of the stock market, right?" asked Lei Juekun very calmly.

"Yes, the shareholder I tried not has many shares in his hands, according to common sense, how to acquire a company, must first contact the shareholders with relatively high shares, that is to say, Standard Chartered Bank is very likely to have contacted many shareholders and even directors, and we don't know how many shares it has acquired. Feng Songping explained.

"Then can we know who is behind Standard Chartered?" Lei Juekun frowned and asked, it is impossible for Standard Chartered Bank to acquire its own company, because it does not comply with Xiangjiang's banking law, and the only explanation is that Standard Chartered came forward on behalf of outsiders.

Feng Songping shook his head and said: "That shareholder doesn't know, I have already arranged for someone to investigate, but it may not be found, but the other party's background must be strong." ”

Lei Juekun asked, "Why?"

"Because the way Standard Chartered made a move is very inconsistent with the purpose of the covert acquisition. Feng Songping explained: "Generally, the covert acquisition of a company's shares is basically extremely low-key, with the intention of acquiring enough shares for a period of time without causing stock price fluctuations.

Although Standard Chartered Bank also tried to manipulate the stock price some time ago, it used too much money in a month, which allowed us to find the trace.

Standard Chartered Bank has a lot of internal talent, and it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake, and the only explanation is that the people behind it are in a hurry to buy Kowloon Motor Bus in a short period of time, and even if it is exposed, they don't care about spending more money. ”

Lei Juekun didn't speak, but pondered for a moment, and then asked, "If I mobilize funds now, I don't know how much help Yongheng can provide." ”

"HK$100 million. Feng Songping raised a finger and said: "This is the biggest right I have at present, if you still need more funds, you have to go through certain procedures." ”

Although Wing Hang Bank is a family bank, it sold half of its shares to the Owen Trust Group in New York as early as 1973.

Lei Juekun nodded and said, "Okay, then immediately mobilize 100 million Hong Kong dollars for me, and I will also mobilize funds from other channels." ”

"Lei Sheng, I don't know who the opponent is yet, are you sure you want to spend such a price to buy your company's shares at a high price?" Feng Songping asked, once Lei Juekun also mobilizes funds to buy KMB shares, then the two sides will go wrong, the news will inevitably leak, and the stock price of Kowloon Bus can immediately double or even more, without knowing that the other party's economic strength is strong, blindly borrowing and investing too much money may lead to problems in other industries.

Lei Juekun shook his head and said: "It's better to have the funds ready than not to have the money when you need it, prepare it first, how to operate it, and wait until you know who the other party is." ”

Feng Songping nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go and prepare immediately." ”

"Okay, let me know as soon as you find out who is behind it. Lei Juekun nodded and said, before he didn't know who the opponent was, in fact, he didn't dare to use bank loans and other companies' liquidity at will.

Feng Songping said: "I will try my best to investigate, but this Standard Chartered Bank is one of the top banks in Xiangjiang, and it may not work if you want to get the person behind it from them, so Lei Sheng had better make second-hand preparations." ”

Lei Juekun frowned and said, "What does Feng Sheng mean?"

Feng Songping said: "The Lei family has controlled the Kowloon Bus for so many years, presumably among the many directors of the Kowloon Bus Company, there must also be people who are good friends with the Lei family, since someone wants to buy the KMB, then the other party is likely to have communicated with these directors, maybe some of them know who is behind this?"

Lei Juekun frowned and said: "Before today, I didn't get any news, these people should have already sold the stocks in their hands, and it is estimated that there is no point in asking them again." ”

"I don't think so. Feng Songping said with a smile: "Lei Sheng, you only have 20% of the shares of Kowloon Bus, although you are the largest shareholder, but as far as I know, the shares of many directors on the board of directors add up to more than 35%, plus the stock market transactions, if these people all sell their shares, then the people behind Standard Chartered Bank can have a successful public takeover." ”

Lei Juekun thought about it and felt that it made sense, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Feng Songping smiled: "These people didn't make a move, they were just waiting for you." ”
