Chapter 847: The Battle for Wheelock (4200 Words Big Chapter!~)
The life of the charter king is magnificent, before the abandonment of the boat landing, the charter king is a well-deserved world ship king, but when the charter king just entered the shipping industry, it was only a junior, at that time the charter king got the help of George Madden, the Taipan of Wheelock at that time, and it was gradually growing.
As an older generation of Chinese businessmen, the charter king is very righteous, so he has always been very respectful to George Madden, but later after George Madden's death, George Madden's son John Madden took over the position of Wheelock Taipan, and since then the Madden family has had little contact with the charter king, and only business contacts remain.
Then another incident happened, so that the love between the charter king and the Madden family disappeared, the charter king in order to thank George Madden for his help, specially sent a precious Zhongtang scroll to the Madden family, but after John Madden took over, he did not value the Zhongtang scroll, resulting in the Zhongtang scroll left in the world and bought by others.
This incident made the charter king angry, thinking that the Madden family did not care about him, so this also became the fuse for the breakup between the two families.
"Bao Bo, do you see that this scroll was given to the Madden family in the first place?" Rong Le smiled and took out a pair of scrolls next to him and handed it to the charter king.
The charter king was a little surprised in Rong Le's hand, took the scroll, unfolded it, and knew that this was the one he had given to George Madden.
"Why is this scroll with you?"
"I found the man who bought the scroll in the first place, and bought it in his hands. Rong Le said lightly.
The charter boat king held the scroll in the middle hall, and he was also a little emotional in his heart, he didn't expect that he would be able to see this scroll in his lifetime.
"Ah Le, do you also want to buy Wheelokufeng?" the charter king put the scroll aside and asked about the theme of today's meeting between the two.
"I don't have any interest in Wheelock, but there is one thing that Bao Bo should be very interested in, just today Singapore's Khoo Tepat has come to Xiangjiang, and he was picked up by Wheelock John Madden!"
"What?" the charter king looked at Rong Le in surprise and asked, "Is this thing true?"
"It's 100% true, I think John Madden invited Qiu Tepat at this time, but not to let him come to Xiangjiang to enjoy the scenery, right? Qiu Tebel has always wanted to enter Xiangjiang, and has always been very interested in Wheelock, plus John Madden has always been not optimistic about Xiangjiang, obviously the two should have some cooperation to carry out!"
In his opinion, even if the Bao family and the Madden family have drifted apart, John Madden should also consider his friendship with his father, this matter should be notified to himself in advance, but now John Madden secretly contacted Khoo Teck in Singapore, ready to sell Wheelock that his father had worked so hard to found, which is a betrayal in the eyes of the charter king!
At the same time, there is a hint of relief in his heart, and since John Madden has completely disregarded the friendship between the two of them, then if he makes a move now, no one will say anything.
The charter king is a famous Jianghu faction in this generation of businessmen, if it weren't for John Madden's own death, the charter king would really not be able to shoot directly.
"Ah Le, why are you telling me these things?" Rong Le, the charter king, was serious, in his opinion, since Rong Le had no idea about Wheeloku, then this matter had nothing to do with him, and he didn't understand why Rong Le made a special trip to tell him.
"Bao Bo should still remember what happened in Xiangjiang when I invested and built a factory in China!" Rong Le picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and said with a smile.
Smart people speak happily, Rong Le just opened a beginning, and the charter king has already guessed the cause and effect, obviously in the turmoil of the downfall, there is the shadow of Wheeloku, the random charter king thought of the Zhang family property dispute that happened not long ago, is it true that the rumors on the rivers and lakes are true? There is really the shadow of Rong Le?
"Haha, I know, I have my own way on Zhang Yuliang's side, Ah Le, you just wait to watch the show!" The charter king said happily, whether there is a shadow of Rongle in the Zhang family's property seizure case is not important to the charter king at all.
As for Rongle wanting to borrow his own hand to clean up John Madden, this is not important to the charter king, everyone just takes what they need, Rongle wants John Madden to be unlucky, and the charter king wants Wheelock!
"Bao Bo, now that you have an idea, I think you still have to hurry, after all, if John Madden sells his shares to Qiu Tebal, then you will have to pay a big price!" Rong Le smiled.
The charter king glanced at Rong Le meaningfully, not only sighed at Rong Le's thoughtfulness, but also mourned for John Madden, why should he offend Rong Le?
Rong Le let himself hurry up, obviously he didn't want John Madden to sell the shares in his hand to Qiu Tebal, after all, if John Madden sold his shares to Qiu Tebal, no matter how the charter king made a move, John Madden would have no loss.
Only by keeping John Madden firmly in control of the big ship of Wheelock can his losses be visible to the naked eye.
"You!" "You!" The charter king shook his head and said, although he knew that Rong Le had the intention of using himself, but the charter king also knew that Rong Le was telling the truth, Qiu Deba was not an ordinary person, if he really let him actually operate, then it would be more troublesome for the charter king to make a move.
"Haha, I'm also thinking about you for Bao Bo, but at the same time that Bao Bo contacts Zhang Yuliang, you can ask Brother Guangzhen to also contact Luo Zheng, after the Zhang family's property seizure case is over, Cui Xiuying also has some of Willock's shares in his hands!"
"It seems that you have thought it all out for me!" said the charter king, Rong Le is going to force John Madden's rhythm to death.
"I'm a good person to the end!" Rong Le said with a smile.
"Okay, I know how to deal with this matter!" the charter king smiled, then pointed to the central hall scroll placed next to him, and said with a smile: "I'll take this scroll!"
"That's nature, is this what Bao Bo is supposed to be!" Rong Le laughed.
Neither of the two said anything about money, and everyone tacitly used this scroll as a small bargaining chip in the transaction between the charter king and Rongle!
.........
Cui Xiuying is very happy now, she finally got back what she belongs to, she went to Canada in a gray way, and she has to rely on her son-in-law for relief in the past two years, but now she not only got back some of the cash, but also got a part of Wheelock stock.
At this time, she was very grateful to the mysterious person who helped her, but she didn't know who it was, which made her a little disappointed.
Even Cui Xiuying is just a grandmother, and she knows that Wheelock is famous, one of the four major foreign companies in Xiangjiang!
At this time, she was staying at her son-in-law's house, and after the lunch break, she saw her son-in-law walking back with his cousin Rhodes!
"Ah Cheng, you came just in time, I am going to Canada in the next few days, I have been living in your property before, Mommy thank you, I want to buy a property by myself after returning to Canada, what do you think?" Cui Xiuying said happily.
Luo Cheng said with a smile: "Now the development of Canada has been good, I believe that there will be a lot of wealthy businessmen in Canada during this period of time to buy property, as an investment, Mommy, you can buy some property!"
"Well, I'm relieved to have you say that!" Cui Xiuying smiled.
"Mommy, this time Dezheng came over because I wanted to discuss something with you!" Rod Cheng said.
"Oh, yes, Dezheng is not an outsider, you can talk about anything!" Cui Xiuying said happily, and Luo Zheng also contributed to his case.
"Auntie, that's the case, I'm also entrusted, the charter king wants to buy 11.23% of your Wheelock shares! Want me to ask your opinion!"
Cui Xiuying didn't expect that someone wanted to buy the shares of Wheelock in her hand, this Cui Xiuying was a little hesitant, she didn't know the current situation of Wheelock, so Cui Xiuying looked at her son-in-law.
Luo Cheng did it to Cui Xiuying's side and informed Cui Xiuying of Defeng's situation.
“...... Mommy, now Wheelock is in debt, although Wheelock is also a veteran British consortium, but in recent years want to dividends, it is impossible, I have seen the price given by the charter king, it is very reasonable, in my opinion, it is better to take advantage of the current hand of Wheelock shares, sell to the charter king, just cash, you can also do some fixed investment in Canada. ”
Cui Xiuying thought for a while, thinking that her son-in-law was right, Xiangjiang is a place, she doesn't want to stay any longer, it is better to exchange these stocks for cash and bring them to Canada!
"Okay then, let the charter king send someone over!" Cui Xiuying thought for a moment and agreed with some hesitation.
.........
Changshi!
In Li Chaoren's office, Zhang Yuliang came to visit in person, although Zhang Yuliang is low-key, but in the business community of Xiangjiang, he still has some friendship with Li Chaoren, and when Rongle found Zhang Yuliang, Li Chaoren introduced him.
Li Chaoren looked at Zhang Yuliang, and also sighed in his heart, although there is no evidence to prove that the matter of Zhang Yuliang's family is related to Rongle, but for Li Chaoren and others, it doesn't matter if there is evidence or not, as long as they think it is.
Compared to Rongle's behavior, Li Chaoren has no opinion, after all, it was Zhang Yuliang who acted behind the back first.
"Zhang Sheng, are you really planning to leave Xiangjiang?"
Now Zhang Yuliang's behavior is obviously sad about Xiangjiang, and he is not ready to stay in Xiangjiang anymore!
"Li Sheng, don't persuade me, I have already made up my mind, I came to you this time, I also hope that you can help me contact the charter king, I believe that the charter king should be very interested in Wheelock!" Zhang Yuliang said with some disheartenment, he no longer has any attachment to Xiangjiang, coupled with this series of things, the reputation of the Zhang family in Xiangjiang has fallen to the bottom, and he can't see the development prospects in Xiangjiang.
Prior to this, Zhang Yuliang had actually discussed with Li Chaoren about Cheung Kong's acquisition of Wheelock's shares, but Li Chaoren was not interested in Wheelock, so he recommended the charter king......
"Okay, now that Zhang Sheng has decided, I will help you contact the charter king!" Li Chaoren did not persuade Zhang Yuliang again, this is their own business, Li Chaoren's own friendship is exhausted, that is, and in this way, he can sell the charter boat king a favor, Li Chaoren is happy to do this.
.........
After the charter king put down the phone, a happy smile appeared on his face, and Wu Guangzhen sat opposite him and asked, "Daddy, whose phone is it, so happy?"
"Li Sheng's, Zhang Yuliang has already gone to find Li Chaoren, hoping to let us take over the shares of Wheelock in his hands!"
"It's really Rongle who is right, Zhang Yuliang is really in a hurry to sell the shares of Wheelock in his hand!" Wu Guangzhen sighed.
"Yes, he can't do it if he doesn't make a move, Wheelock's debts and the situation of the Zhang family have weighed him down, if he can't sell his shares as soon as possible, their Zhang family is likely to face the crisis of bankruptcy. He can't help it now!" said the charter king.
Although the Zhang family looks beautiful on the outside, the debts of Wheelock in recent years, as well as the business conditions of the Zhang family, the Xiangjiang market, and the civil strife of the Zhang family have already made Zhang Yuliang tired of coping.
"Then Daddy, should we delay it first, in this case, maybe we can lower the price again!" Wu Guangzhen said.
"It can't be delayed, John Madden is already in contact with Qiu Deba, and we don't know how they are going, if they are allowed to take the lead, it will be troublesome, by the way, is Rhodes replying to the message over there?"
"Rod has already replied to the news, and Cui Xiuying has agreed to our acquisition request!" Wu Guangzhen said happily, although Wheelock is heavily indebted, in fact, Wheelock still has a lot of high-quality companies, and John Madden can't turn the tide, but it doesn't mean that they can't!
"Very good, contact them immediately, we want to get Defeng in our hands before John Madden and Qiu Tepbal!"
"I see!"
.........
Wheelock!
When Khoo Teck came to Xiangjiang, he was ambitious, he had long coveted the Xiangjiang market, and if he could win Wheelock, then it would be the best opportunity for him to enter the Xiangjiang market.
"John, the current situation of Wheelock, we all know that it is impossible for us to accept the price you proposed, we are sincere in acquiring Wheelock, but at this price, we can't see your sincerity!"
Khoo Teck and John Madden sat in their offices, and the acquisition of Wheelock was already the third time they had negotiated.
John Madden's price of the lion's big mouth, Qiu Debal will definitely not accept it, and the two are at a stalemate on the price at this time.
"Mr. Qiu, you and I both know that the downturn in the Hong Kong market is only temporary, as long as we survive this time, Wheelock will definitely regroup!" John Madden said.
"John, everyone understands people, if the market in Xiangjiang is really as you said, I don't think you will sell Wheelock, and now the world shipping industry has no prospects, Wheelock's non-performing assets are too many, and I will not accept the previous price anyway!" Qiu De said neatly, in his opinion, Wheelock is already in his pocket.
