Chapter Ninety-Three: Standard Chartered Bank Has Changed
Su Chenyu waited quietly for Jamie?? Damon's answer, but he also knew that it would be difficult to get him to make a decision right away. So Su Chenyu was no longer in a hurry, but chose to adopt the "Huairou Policy".
"Well, Mr. Jamie, I'm not rushing you to make a decision right away. Feel free to contact me as long as you can figure it out in the next week. Su Chenyu brought a piece of paper with a number written on it and said, "This is my contact information." ”
Jamie?? Dimon nodded, then took the piece of paper and shook Su Chenyu's hand with a heavy face.
"I hope Mr. Jamie can give me good news, and I hope to join forces with Mr. Jamie to create the world's largest banking group. Su Chenyu finally said.
Eyeing Jamie?? Dimon left, Su Chenyu smiled, his plan was already half completed.
What Su Chenyu is doing now is in Jamie?? Dimon planted a seedling in his heart, believing that as long as he was an ambitious person, he would not refuse this offer. So, Su Chenyu is confident that Jamie will be in a week later?? Dimon will give him a satisfactory answer.
It is rare for Su Chenyu and Zhong Chuhong to have this kind of free time to live in the two-person world, so they naturally want to make good use of it. Therefore, Su Chenyu was dragged by Zhong Chuhong to almost all the bustling downtown areas of New York.
Just when Su Chenyu accompanied Zhong Chuhong to travel to the United States, he didn't know that two people were distressed by him.
Apparently one of them is Jamie?? Damon, the more he reminisced about Su Chenyu's words after he went back, the more he felt that Su Chenyu's words made sense. Will was a little skeptical about his work. Therefore, the "seed of temptation" planted by Su Chenyu in his heart quickly took root and even grew strongly.
Still, Jamie?? After all, Dimon is an emotional person, so now he is still struggling with the bitterness of choice.
As for the other person who is distressed, it is naturally Mr. Khoo Debal, the richest man in Singapore.
The ship king has already brought Su Chenyu's words, and also said his next plan.
In this way, Mr. Qiu Deba is in a dilemma, he is 110,000 unwilling in his heart, but the shape is stronger than people.
Recently, something has happened to his family business, and even the ship king, who is several times richer than him, has compromised, and he can't hold on to it alone.
So, Mr. Qiu is really scratching his head now, but he knows that he has actually made a decision.
Some people say that confidants are "refined" by constantly stumbling and constantly explaining, but sometimes some misunderstandings that are not explained in time are often "fatal". Jamie?? Dimon and Sandy?? Will, the "good friends" of the old and the young, is now in such a crisis.
Sandy?? Will in a recent failed takeover, thought it was all Jamie?? caused by Dimon's mistake. Powerful Sandy?? Will was in a state of excitement and even Jamie?? Dimon didn't listen to his explanations, but he was convinced by his wife's explanations.
But this is not the case at all, the failure of the whole thing has to do with Jamie?? Dimon had nothing to do with it, but it was his wife's mistake that caused it. If it's usual, Sandy?? Will also be able to pass guò with Jamie?? Dimon chatted to clear up the misunderstanding, but lately he has been entangled in affairs and has missed the best opportunity.
Jamie?? Dimon was really a little disappointed, and what happened now seemed to fit a little bit with what Su Chenyu described.
So, Jamie?? Dimon's scales began to slowly tilt towards Su Chenyu's side, and when Sandy?? When Will didn't clear up this misunderstanding in time, his balance seemed to be completely tilted in favor of Su Chenyu.
Just the day before Su Chenyu was about to leave, he received Jamie?? Dimon's phone.
After listening to the phone, Su Chenyu happily hugged Zhong Chuhong and turned around several times after putting down the microphone. Su Chenyu whispered in Zhong Chuhong's ear: "My dear, I will take you to meet you today to see the biggest harvest of this visit to the United States." ”
"What?" Zhong Chuhong said affectionately around his neck.
"You'll know when the time comes. Su Chenyu smiled mysteriously.
Or the original room, Su Chenyu saw Jamie again?? Damon, but this time it seems that Jamie?? Dimon matured a lot all at once.
"Damon, I knew you were going to bring me good news. "Su Chenyu gave it to Jamie as soon as they met?? Dimon gave a big bear hug, and then said, "Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend Miss Zhong Chuhong." ”
"Honey, this is the future greatest banker on the planet, Jamie?? Mr. Dimon. Su Chenyu introduced Zhong Chuhong again.
Zhong Chuhong listened to Su Chenyu's introduction and happily talked to Jamie?? Dimon shook hands, and she understood that this was the method that Su Chenyu introduced to his "friend" to determine the relationship between the two. Jamie?? Dimon obviously saw an oriental beauty of Zhong Chuhong's level for the first time, so he shook Zhong Chuhong's hand with some restraint, and then turned directly to Su Chenyu.
"Sue, is your promise still valid?" Jamie?? Dimon said straight to the point this time.
"Of course. Su Chenyu put away his smile and said seriously.
Zhong Chuhong saw that the two of them had to talk about business, although Su Chenyu did not shy away from her, but she knew what a smart woman should do, so she chose not to mix with her man's affairs.
"Honey, I'll go out for a walk first, and you talk to Mr. Jamie. Zhong Chuhong smiled and said, "Mr. Jamie, I'll see you later." ”
Jamie?? After Dimon stood up and watched Zhong Chuhong go out, he sat down to talk to Su Chenyu about business.
"In terms of annual salary, I do as I said before, but I demand the most autonomy in the management of the company. "Jamie?? Dimon made his request directly: "This is my biggest request, and it is also the most basic. ”
Su Chenyu did not delay at all, and immediately replied: "No problem at all, at next month's shareholders' meeting, I will appoint you as the chairman of Standard Chartered with an absolute equity nomination." ”
Jamie?? After listening to Su Chenyu's words, Dimon was a little moved, he knew that Su Chenyu really valued him very much.
"But in some serious cases, I hope that we can discuss and solve them together. Su Chenyu finally made up for it.
Jamie?? Dimon also replied without hesitation: "That's nature." ”
"It was a pleasure to work with. I believe that together we will make history and build the world's No. 1 bank. "Su Chenyu stood up and Jamie?? Dimon said as he shook hands.
Jamie?? Dimon said confidently, "Of course. ”
Then Su Chenyu, Zhong Chuhong and Jamie?? Dimon had dinner with him, Jamie?? At the dinner table, Dimon had a preliminary discussion of his "governing ideas." In this regard, Su Chenyu combined some experience in his previous life with Jamie?? Dimon had a good conversation, and Jamie?? Dimon was even more impressed with Su Chenyu because of this.
Su Chenyu's trip to the United States can be regarded as fruitful, and when he returned to Hong Kong, there was one more man by his side besides Zhong Chuhong - Jamie?? Dimon and Su Chenyu came to Hong Kong together.
Although it was only a week, Qiu Deba felt as if a year had passed. The family business is in trouble, and there are still people outside eyeing him, and Qiu Deba is now worried about internal and external difficulties. But after all, he is a rich man who has been up and down in the business world for many years, and Qiu Deba quickly made a series of decisions.
Qiu Deba knew that he couldn't keep the shares of Standard Chartered Bank in his hand at all, so it was better to sell his favor, and the purchase price given by the other party was still very attractive. Therefore, when Su Chenyu was still on the plane, Qiu Deba had already notified the "ship king" of his decision to sell the shares of Standard Chartered Bank.
Seeing the boat king again after a week, Su Chenyu felt that the "boat king" seemed to be more calm this time, not at all as solemn as last time. As soon as he saw the king of the ship like this, Su Chenyu knew that his big event had been accomplished.
"Mr. Bao, you must have brought me good news this time, right?" Su Chenyu said straight to the point after a few polite words with Bao Yugang.
The boat king looked at Li Jiacheng beside him, then looked at each other and smiled, and said unhurriedly: "Bao is here to congratulate Mr. Su, Mr. Su will soon own this old British bank." ”
Su Chenyu listened to Bao Yugang's words, but he didn't have too many surprises, after all, this matter was in his calculations. Therefore, Su Chenyu's reaction was very flat, as if he was casually waiting for the next words of the "Boat King".
Bao Yugang saw Su Chenyu's appearance, and then continued: "Mr. Qiu Deba and I agreed to sell a total of 26% of our Standard Chartered Bank to Mr. Su. ”
"Please rest assured that the previous promises under the next are still valid. Mr. Li is also here, can you please prove it for me. Su Chenyu said to Bao Yugang and Li Jiacheng with a smile: "As for these shares, I will take them at 10% higher than the purchase price of the two." ”
Bao Yugang nodded, agreeing with Su Chenyu's words. In this way, Su Chenyu can be regarded as officially completing the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank.
Sandy?? Will has been annoyed lately, several acquisitions by the Voyager Group have failed, and his most trusted subordinate has disappeared after leaving a letter of resignation. Actually Sandy?? Will has already reacted to the last time he was against Jamie?? Something was wrong with Damon's approach, and he was preparing to talk to Jamie?? By the time Dimon had a good talk, the other party had disappeared in an incredible way.
But today when Sandy?? When Will picked up the latest Wall Street Journal and looked at the familiar photos on it, he couldn't help but feel as if his mind was a little dead.
"Standard Chartered Bank Changes, 33-Year-Old Wall Street Kid Becomes Youngest CEO," the Wall Street Journal headlined.
Sandy?? Will only understood Jamie at this time?? Why did Dimon suddenly resign, but in an instant he was overshadowed by endless anger. Sandy?? Will thinks it's a betrayal, it's Jamie?? Damon's betrayal of his ** naked.
So since then, this former "good partner of master and apprentice" has become a sworn enemy on the financial battlefield, and the two genius bankers have collided countless "sparks" in the same field in the future.
In fact, the world's major newspapers and magazines were frantically reporting on this major event in the financial world that day.
Within a few hours of Fund X's statement announcing that it would control Standard Chartered Bank with an absolute controlling stake of 74.9%, the global financial and banking sector was completely exploded.
Subsequently, Fund X directly bypassed the executives of the other two major shareholders of Standard Chartered, Rice Bank and Standard Chartered, and announced the dismissal of the current CEO William?? O'Dellson's position, appointing former Travelers Group executive Jamie?? Dimon is the new CEO.
All of a sudden, the world's major newspapers began to report on this matter frantically.
"A hundred years of Standard Chartered changed its new owner, and British capital was defeated. The Sun wrote on the front page for fear that the world would not be chaotic.
"Standard Chartered Bank has changed dramatically, and the future is uncertain. The Times also wrote worriedly.
"Standard Chartered changed the sky, and the British capital collapsed. The headline of the Daily Telegraph.
……
The British media has paid unprecedented attention to the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank, but there is no way, Su Chenyu has stimulated John Bull's "adrenal glands".
The proud British have increasingly felt their decline in the wake of the Falklands War, and with Hong Kong's handover imminent, more and more British-owned companies are being bought by local consortia.
Undoubtedly, the proud John Bull was helpless against the harsh reality and could only complain in the newspapers.
Compared with the complaining complaints of the British media, their American counterparts are much more objective.
The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and other newspapers reported on the matter very neutrally, but apparently they were very impartial about Jamie?? Dimon's interest was even greater.
The biggest reaction to the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank was not in the UK but in Hong Kong.
You must know that Standard Chartered Bank is one of the note-issuing banks in Hong Kong, and this time it was acquired by X Fund, a fund company that rose in the stock market crash, which really worried Hong Kong people.
In view of this, Hong Kong Financial Secretary Zhai Kecheng had to meet with the new chairman of Standard Chartered Bank, Jamie?? Damon.
However, Su Chenyu didn't care too much about the outside world's comments on this, he was busy laundering the first few batches of wealth that he had just "stolen" from Lao Maozi.
