627 [From the Battle of Kowloon]

In the face of Huo Yaowen's investment of up to 30 million US dollars, Director Li can be described as ecstatic, he never expected that before the Shekou Industrial Park was completed, there were already 15 million US dollars from CP Group and 30 million US dollars from Gorenje Electric Appliance Company.

After negotiating with Huo Yaowen on the day to establish the preliminary investment project, the first thing Director Li did when he returned to the bureau was to report the good news to Yuan Geng, the general person in charge of Shekou China Merchants Bureau.

Yuan Geng, who was far away in the capital, was also pleasantly surprised when he received the telegram, and hurriedly reported the good news to the superior leaders. When the people above heard the news, their eyes lit up.

Good guys, before the official foreign investment has begun, there is an investment of almost 50 million US dollars, which is equivalent to 3 percent of the foreign exchange reserves of the motherland for decades. If the development of Shekou is really opened up and foreign investment is introduced, it will not break 100 million US dollars in minutes!

Immediately, the above accelerated the discussion meeting of the Shekou China Merchants Bureau, at which everyone was overjoyed to learn the good news of foreign investment of $50 million. In the face of the various policies required by foreign businessmen reported by Director Li, it is also a green light all the way.

It only took two days to approve the preferential policies that the Shekou Industrial Park can decide on its own, which can be regarded as a reassurance to the Shekou China Merchants Bureau.

Director Li received the instructions from above, and immediately contacted Xie Guomin and Huo Yaowen, revealed this information to the two, and named the strength of some preferential policies. For example, what factory imports high-tech equipment from abroad, the implementation of duty-free policy, the local factory within three years of exemption from part of the tax and so on.

Anyway, all kinds of good policies have been put down, and Huo Yaowen actually doesn't attach much importance to the partial tax exemption that can be exempted for three years, what he cares about is the tax exemption in the import of materials.

After all, at this time, the domestic production of electrical raw materials and equipment is still relatively backward, Gorenje Electric Company wants to build a factory in the mainland, must use foreign advanced raw materials and equipment, this part is the majority.

Therefore, after hearing that like Guangzhou, imported raw materials and equipment and technology are duty-free, Huo Yaowen also signed the cooperation terms with the Shekou Investment Promotion Bureau headed by Director Li on the same day.

Early the next morning, he made a long-distance call to Hong Kong, and asked the newly established Gorenje Electric Branch in Hong Kong to make a down payment of 10 million US dollars.

Xie Guomin of CP Group was not ambiguous, he saw that Huo Yaowen signed the contract directly, and also signed the contract to build a feed factory in Shekou. At the same time, he also urgently contacted the headquarters of Thailand's CP Group and asked them to send technicians to Shekou, Shenzhen, to supervise and take charge of the construction of the new factory.

......

After two days of waiting, after the technicians arranged by Huo Yaowen arrived in Shenzhen first, Director Li began to get busy, he led these technicians to inspect the Shekou Industrial Park every day, and then discussed the construction of the electrical processing plant with the designers and engineers of the Construction Bureau from Beijing.

While everything was being built in an orderly and steady manner, Huo Yaowen received an emergency call from Hong Kong. It turned out that the charter ship king had officially acquired Wharf shares yesterday, and on the eve of the stock market on the eve of the stock market, the Kowloon stocks, which were originally only in their twenties, suddenly soared to 30 yuan a share.

Seeing that the "Wharf Battle" that had been waiting for two years had begun, Huo Yaowen did not stay in the mainland any longer, returned to Guangzhou overnight that day, and returned to Hong Kong by ship early the next morning.

Yaowen Personal Finance Investment Company.

Yin Wenyao, who succeeded David in charge of the "Wharf" stock investment project, hurriedly reported to Huo Yaowen on the current progress of Wharf, "Boss, the day before yesterday, the charter ship king officially acquired Wharf shares to the public, and the 20 yuan per share of Wharf soared to 30 yuan before the end of the day. Yesterday it rose by five yuan, and just now I received a call from an employee of the Kowloon Stock Exchange, who said that Kowloon stocks have reached 40 yuan a share!"

"The rise is so fast!" Huo Yaowen looked at Yin Wenyao in surprise, in just two or three days, the stock has tripled all of a sudden! This is even crazier than the crazy stock market on the eve of the stock market crash in '73.

"It was so fast that we didn't have time to react. However, I contacted the company's consultants for a meeting, and I felt that the main reason for the sharp rise in Wharf's stock was the charter king, and it has been rumored that the charter ship king is bound to win the Wharf, no matter how much it costs, he will definitely hold the Wharf in his hand. ”

Yin Wenyao was also incredulous about this crazy stock price at first, but later after communicating with many investment consultants and securities managers hired by the company, he understood the reason, that is, the charter king is bound to Wharf.

After listening to Yin Wenyao's answer, Huo Yaowen lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then asked after a long time: "How many Wharf shares do we have in hand now?"

"There are about five million shares. At the end of last year, according to the instructions of Manager Davide, we have stopped the large-scale acquisition of Wharf shares, and since then, although we have privately acquired the fractional shares of shareholders, the amount has not been large. Until the day before yesterday, the charter ship king suddenly announced the acquisition of Wharf, and we couldn't collect any shares. ”

Hearing this, Huo Yaowen immediately ordered: "Continue to collect, as long as the stock price does not exceed 80 yuan, keep collecting." ”

"Are we going to continue to collect?!" Yin Wenyao's eyes widened, not quite understanding the boss's behavior. You must know that if you continue to accept it now, you will not only face Jardine Land, but also face the charter king.

Although the market value of Wharf is indeed underestimated by the market, if it really continues to fight, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses.

Huo Yaowen's eyes were like torches, and he said solemnly: "Yes, continue to collect, as long as the stock price does not exceed eighty yuan, continue to collect, and now don't worry about the problem of exposure, start a comprehensive acquisition." Whether it is a minority shareholder of Wharf or a retail investor, as long as they have shares in their hands, they all try their best to collect shares from them. If the company doesn't have enough money, let me know, and I'll continue to add more. ”

Yin Wenyao wanted to speak and stopped, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say it, the boss must have his reason for what he said, just like the year before last when he inexplicably asked them to buy Wharf shares. I think I either have an insider, or I know something inside.

Huo Yaowen glanced at Yin Wenyao and said with a smile: "Advisor Yin, why are you still stunned here? Go and order it now! Remember not to delay for a moment." ”

"Yes boss. Yin Wenyao nodded hurriedly, turned around and went out to order the people below to fully buy Wharf's shares.

On the other end, Huo Yaowen, who was left alone in the office, stood at the window and looked out, the rows of high-rise buildings, and the small crowd of people like ants on the street below, his heart was much calmer.

Previously, Huo Yaowen wanted to use the shares of Wharf to make a lot of money from the charter king, but since the acquisition of Gorenje Electric Company, he has set up an electrical processing factory in the mainland. He had another idea, that is, to exchange the shares of Wharf for the shares of Global Shipping in the hands of the charter king as much as possible.

Wharf is indeed good, there are ports, dock warehouses, and a lot of land projects. But Huo Yaowen has Hutchison Whampoa, and he is not very lacking in these three things. In addition, the charter king really needs Wharf very much, even if Huo Yaowen wants to compete with him, I am afraid that the final result will be a lose-lose situation.

Rather than this, it is better to sell the charter ship king, and by the way, exchange a little bit of the shares of global shipping, so as to lay a foundation for the export of electrical appliances in the mainland in the future.

Of course, there is another very important factor, that is, another Dong Chuanwang has increased his investment in the Oriental Shipping Company this year, and Huo Yaowen is unlikely to get a little share of the shipping company from this Dong Chuanwang, so he can only focus on the charter king. After all, this charter king is now very eager to abandon the ship and go ashore.
