Chapter 228: Superman's Frustration
Cheung Kong Industrial
A few years ago, it was still a company that made plastic flowers, and now no one dares to underestimate it, although some time ago it was hurt by the Prince's Fund 'blocking Hutchison Whampoa', but recently reinvigorated, Li Ka-shing also began to carry out the layout, on the one hand, taking advantage of the Hong Kong crisis to buy a large number of houses, hoarding land, on the other hand, raising funds to block the big consortium.

Knock knock!
Li Jiacheng was consulting the information, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, put down his glasses, and said, "Please come in!"
"Chairman!"
It was Hong Xiaolian who came in, and Li Jiacheng smiled and said, "Manager Hong, please take a seat!"
Hong Xiaolian, who joined Li Jiacheng in 1972, was only 24 years old, only a high school education, she started as a secretary In the past ten years, she has risen to the top of the list, and even served as a director of the company, with an annual salary of 10,000 yuan to 12 million Hong Kong dollars, and her status has jumped from a secretary to an executive director of a company with a market value of more than 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Now she is in charge of the sales department of Cheung Kong Industrial, and is in charge of Li Jiacheng's economic lifeline, so many people say that she speculates about his relationship with Li Jiacheng, and is it an unspoken rule? Or someone's relative? or someone's daughter? Or a Teochew?
Li Jiacheng praised: "The group's recent sales performance is very good!"
Hong Xiaolian was slightly stunned and explained: "It's a few percentage points lower than last year!"
Li Jiacheng smiled: "This is already good, now there are more people selling houses than buying houses!"
Hong Xiaolian didn't speak, she had very bad news, thinking about how to speak.
Li Jiacheng smiled kindly: "What books have you been reading lately?"
"I'm reading books about Western philosophy, just take a look. Hong Xiaolian didn't dare to be sloppy, and soon said the title of the book, the boss Li Jiacheng likes motivated subordinates, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have a degree, but he must be willing to study hard, I remember that soon after she joined Cheung Kong, one day at noon during the meal break, she opened the newspaper to read, and it happened that Li Jiacheng passed by, when she just turned to the entertainment version.
Li Jiacheng said to Hong Xiaolian: "If you have time, you should study and enrich yourself, don't waste time." β
At that time, Hong Xiaolian was very embarrassed and embarrassed, but at the same time she kept this sentence in her heart, and would go to the night shift to study almost every day, and Li Jiacheng favored her from then on.
Li Jiacheng said: "I have time to read books on management. β
"Okay!" Hong Xiaolian stopped talking.
Li Jiacheng smiled: "Just say something!"
Hong Xiaolian said: "There is news from Hong Kong Electric!"
Li Jiacheng's heart moved, and he smiled and said, "Keswick is willing to negotiate?"
Hong Xiaolian shook her head, her expression solemn.
Li Jiacheng's face changed, and he pondered for a moment and asked, "What's the matter!"
Hong Xiaolian said: "Today, I contacted Secretary Keswick as usual, and learned that they have sold all the shares of Hong Kong Electric to a businessman surnamed Wang!"
"Surname Wang?"
"Yes, I can't ask for the specific name, but I guess it's from Hong Kong, because the other party said the words 'you over there'!"
"Wang ...... Zifan!" Li Jiacheng was blessed to the heart, read out the three words Wang Zifan, couldn't help but stand up, the memory was presented in his mind like a movie, and he now finally understood why Wang Zifan launched a company to 'Hutchison Whampoa' for no reason, not to snatch 'Hutchison', but to divert attention!
Of course, Hong Xiaolian knew Wang Zifan, and hesitated: "Is it him? The boss behind the Prince Fund and Oriental Entertainment Group?" But the market value of Hong Kong Electric Light exceeds 10 billion, even if it is us, we dare not ...... it easily."
Li Jiacheng sat down again and affirmed: "It's him!"
Hong Xiaolian said: "Do you want to contact him, use our shares in Hong Kong Electric as a bargaining chip, and renegotiate!"
"It's difficult!" Li Jiacheng sighed, Wang Zifan has made so many rounds, and now he has succeeded, how can he easily start negotiations, before the Keswick family was the largest shareholder of HK Electric, and now that Wang Zifan has replaced him, it is equivalent to controlling HK Electric, with the little shares in his hand, he cannot threaten anyone, and now the wisest choice is to sell these shares.
Hong Xiaolian also thought of this, and shook her head slightly, it's a pity, they started collecting Hong Kong Electric Light data a few months ago, if it weren't for Wang Zifan's surprise to stop Hutchison, I'm afraid they would have been ...... However, the chairman is not a person who easily admits defeat, the Li family and the Wang family, do they want to fight again?
Li Jiacheng lowered his head and pondered for a long time, carefully filtered Wang Zifan's information, had a plan in his heart, raised his head and said, "How long have you been with me?"
Hong Xiaolian was stunned again, and replied: "It's been ten years!"
"Ten years!" Li Jiacheng said to himself, as if he had made up his mind.
Hong Xiaolian quietly waited for the answer, feeling that her position was about to change again, she couldn't help but recall her work experience, the company was listed when she joined Cheung Kong Industrial, and she served as the secretary of the real estate department at the beginning, and then, because she often followed Li Jiacheng to meetings, she was in contact with the business of real estate development, and gradually became interested in sales work, and was already responsible for the general affairs and administrative work of the department, although she began to work after graduating from secondary school, but for more than five years, she has been studying administrative secretary and business administration courses at the then Institute of Technology, and performed well, and then was promoted to a position and transferred to sales workγ
In the face of these doubts, she redoubled her efforts to prove that she did not rely on relationships, and with hard work, she finally ascended to the position of general manager of property rental and sales management, became the God of Wealth of Cheung Kong Asset, and then became the executive director, who undoubtedly played a pivotal role in Cheung Kong Asset, in charge of the sales department and property management department, from the positioning and sales of the real estate market, to the compilation and printing of property brochures and communication with residents and other subtle work, she took care of it, and now no one underestimates her.
Li Jiacheng hesitated for a long time, but sighed deeply: "Forget it!"
Hong Xiaolian was surprised: "Chairman?"
Li Jiacheng smiled bitterly: "Wang Zifan, this kid has no one in his eyes, I was going to teach a lesson, but now that I think about it, the company is facing a once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity, and it is not appropriate to divert energy!"
Hong Xiaolian nodded, and said curiously: "What did the chairman think just now?"
Li Jiacheng smiled bitterly, and he didn't mean to hide it, and said: "I want to set up an entertainment company to let Wang Zifan understand the truth of 'harmony is precious'!"
Hong Xiaolian hesitated: "But isn't the core asset of the Wang family the prince's fund?"
Li Jiacheng smiled and analyzed: "The Prince Fund is indeed very important, some time ago it snatched Kowloon Construction and Kowloon Bus from the Lei family, and now it has acquired Hong Kong Electric Light, but these are like castles in the air for Wang Zifan, there is no foundation, hehe, don't look at the Huan who is jumping now, once you encounter problems, you will collapse faster than anyone else!"
Hong Xiaolian looked puzzled, and couldn't help but ask again: "Doesn't Wang Zifan understand this truth?"
"He's still too young!" Li Jiacheng sighed, although it is very dangerous now, but if Wang Zifan is allowed to digest these industries, there will be another Wang family in Hong Kong!
Hong Xiaolian thought about it, in the final analysis, Wang Zifan rose too fast, although the acquisition of Kowloon Construction, Kowloon Group, Hong Kong Electric Electric, the market value of any company is 100 million 'billion', but the defect is that there is no own team to control these companies, just like a foundationless folk prince suddenly inherited the emperor's position, in the face of a tiger and wolf-like minister, he may lose the country at any time, in the same way, in these companies, directors, presidents, and even ordinary shareholders have the opportunity to rebel, or even replace them.
After Li Jiacheng finished speaking, he said: "Cancel all the plans for the acquisition of Hong Kong Electric Lights!"
Hong Xiaolian hesitated: "Then how will the funds we prepare be placed?"
Li Jiacheng did not answer, why Wang Zifan knew in advance that he bought Hong Kong Electric Light, and also arranged a series of means for him, in addition to internal leaks, he really couldn't think of any other answer, if the traitor was not eliminated, Wang Zifan would find an opportunity and lose a Hong Kong Electric Light, he didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, Hong Xiaolian was also one of the objects of his suspicion.
Without waiting for an answer, Hong Xiaolian naturally realized something, and changed the topic: "Then how to arrange the shares in our hands?"
Li Jiacheng said: "Throw it away!"
Hong Xiaolian nodded, now that Wang Zifan has become the owner of Hong Kong Electric Lighting, he is bound to increase his shareholding, take the opportunity to get rid of it, and make a profit, of course, they are very reluctant to make this money, because it represents failure, Cheung Kong has been smooth sailing since its listing, especially the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, which encountered a setback at first glance, and hoped that it would not affect the confidence of the company's directors.
This is the second defeat! Li Jiacheng suddenly wanted to meet Wang Zifan, and said: "Help me make an appointment, I want to talk to him!"
"Okay!" Hong Xiaolian agreed, although this is the job of a secretary, she is also very curious about Wang Zifan, many people think that she is very similar to Wang Zifan, and she is no exception, but she debuted a few years earlier.
Li Jiacheng waved his hand, he wanted to be alone quietly, the taste of failure was not comfortable, I remember the first time I heard Wang Zifan's name or blocked the Lei family, it was Xu Chuanwang who invited him to help, at that time he didn't take Wang Zifan to heart, so he refused, who knew that soon after his Hutchison Whampoa was attacked, although he kept the company, but he was knocked hard, it was undoubtedly a failure, and now Wang Zifan is the first to buy Hong Kong Electric Light, is that young man really his enemy!
Hong Xiaolian left silently, she also wanted to ask Wang Zifan where the funds came from, but now this question can only be pressed in her heart.
