Chapter 90: Working with Li Chaoren
Since the Hong Kong stock market crash in 1987, X Fund has become famous and has almost become the vane of the Hong Kong stock market.
Every time X Fund's big move can cause a violent shock in the stock market, there is no way, the stock market crash two years ago has brought too many painful memories to Hong Kong people.
However, what is disappointing is that Fund X has been in a stable operation stage since the stock market crash, and it has only invested in some sunshine industries in Hong Kong, and has not made any major moves.
On the third day of Su Chenyu's arrival in Hong Kong, Fund X, which has not made any big moves in the market, suddenly made frequent moves in the stock market.
Fund X swept the shares of Cheung Kong Industrial as soon as the market opened in the morning, and then made a move on Hutchison Whampoa, and in the afternoon, Fund X suddenly made a move on Power Energy.
At this time, shareholders can understand that X Fund is going to snipe Li Jiacheng's Changshi company.
Both sides are regarded as the two gods of Hong Kong stocks, and it doesn't matter if the gods fight, but it worries ordinary shareholders. Therefore, from the next day, Hong Kong stocks began to fall slightly as soon as the market opened, and when Fund X first announced its 5% stake in Cheung Kong on the stock exchange, the Hang Seng Index began to plummet.
The acquisition of Fund X obviously affects the nerves of many Hong Kong tycoons, such as the "Asian stock god" Lee Zhaoji, the "ship king" Bao Yugang, the "jewelry king" Zheng Yutong, and the "gambling king" Ho Hongshen and other tycoons are always paying attention to the stock market.
However, compared with these bystanders, Li Jiacheng, as one of the protagonists of the whole incident, seems very calm. It wasn't until the Hang Seng Index and Cheung Kong stocks began to plummet that Cheung Kong issued a statement under pressure, claiming that this was just an ordinary commercial and financial activity, and that Cheung Kong and the entire Cheung Kong company would not have major equity changes.
When Cheung Kong officially responded to the "sniper incident", Fund X had already stopped, but it was the operation of just a few days that Fund X gained a lot.
"The chairman, lawyer Tan Jiageng, the representative of X Fund, sent a message and hoped to meet with you. The secretary walked into the office and said to Li Jiacheng, who was working.
Li Jiacheng raised his head, still the face that was admired by many people in the future, but he was a little younger, and after a deep groan, he said, "When and where?"
"It's up to you to decide what the other person means. The secretary replied.
Li Jiacheng thought for a while and said, "This afternoon, let's set it at Fulinmen." ”
After the secretary withdrew, Li Jiacheng began to think about what the real purpose of Fund X was.
Although the other party made a thunderous sniper posture against Changshi a few days ago, Li Jiacheng knew that the other party definitely did not come to "snipe" Changshi, and the other party did not have such a big appetite. And for this kind of financial fund company, it will definitely not spend so much money and energy to make a hostile takeover of a giant company.
Li Jiacheng has also heard of this lawyer Tan Jiageng, and it seems that he suddenly rose overnight.
It is said that the other party was originally just a small lawyer, but in the past two or three years, he has suddenly become the plenipotentiary representative of Suning Real Estate, Suning Electric Appliances and X Fund, which are in the limelight in Hong Kong.
Li Chaoren also got news from his connections in the mainland, and this Tan Jiageng seems to have a deep relationship in the mainland.
Li Jiacheng appeared on time in the VIP box that FLM frequented in the afternoon.
After a while, his secretary walked in and said, "Chairman, Mr. Tan is here." ”
"Please come in. Li Jiacheng took a sip of tea and said.
About a few minutes later, Li Jiacheng saw a middle-aged man and a young man walk in, so he stood up and said, "Lawyer Tan, I have long admired my name." ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Mr. Li is the real famous, and I am just a little lawyer. Tan Jiageng was flattered and hurriedly said.
"Mr. Tan said with a smile, I don't know who this is?" Li Jiacheng looked at the young man next to Tan Jiageng and asked Tan Jiageng.
Tan Jiageng just wanted to introduce Su Chenyu, but Su Chenyu stopped him, then stretched out and shook hands with Li Jiacheng and said: "Mr. Li, I have admired the name for a long time, you must know that Mr. Li is the idol of our Chinese entrepreneurs." I am Su Chenyu, the behind-the-scenes boss of X Fund and EX Fund. ”
Li Jiacheng looked at Su Chenyu in some surprise, as if he couldn't believe that the matter was true. However, after all, Li Jiacheng is a human spirit who has read all the states of the world, so he quickly reacted, and then said with emotion: "Sure enough, it is a hero who is a young man, I can't think of it, I can't think of it!"
"Please take a seat!" After Li Jiacheng and Su Chenyu exchanged pleasantries for a while, they remembered that everyone was standing, so they asked the two of them to sit down.
Tan Jiageng didn't sit down together very consciously, he knew that Su Chenyu must have something to talk to Li Chaoren, so he left under the pretext that he still had something to do.
As we all know, Li Chaoren loves to drink kung fu tea, and he is also very good at Chaozhou kung fu tea, this time Su Chenyu can be regarded as having seen it.
"Please!" Li Chaoren handed the brewed cup of tea to Su Chenyu, and then said, "I don't know if you like tea." ”
"It's okay, my father likes to drink tea, but he is not as particular as Mr. Li. Su Chenyu said after taking a sip.
"Ao, Ling Zun is a fellow believer. Li Chaoren said with a smile.
Su Chenyu secretly said that he was really an old fox, and he didn't mention the matter of X Fund's "sniping" of the Changshi company, and sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy.
Although Su Chenyu was very patient with him, after all, he was at fault first, and he still needed help from others. So Su Chenyu took the lead and said, "Mr. Li should know what Fund X did to Cheung Kong a few days ago, right?"
"The whole island is well known. Li Chaoren didn't mean to be angry, but said calmly.
Su Chenyu ignored the sarcasm in Li Chaoren's words, and continued: "Mr. Li, I don't have any malicious intentions, I just want to make friends with Mr. Li. The best outcome is that now I can meet with Mr. Li. ”
"Mr. Su went to such great lengths just to see me?" Li Jiacheng saw that Su Chenyu said very sincerely, and couldn't help but question.
"Of course, if Mr. Li doesn't believe me, I can sell you all the Cheung Kong shares at the current price. What do you think?" Su Chenyu saw that Li Jiacheng still didn't believe it, so he said.
"Oh!" Li Jiacheng really believed Su Chenyu's words this time, but he didn't understand why Su Chenyu had to make so much effort to meet him: "Since Mr. Su has acquired these stocks, and Mr. Su has no malicious intentions, then I will not be loved." But I'm curious why Mr. Su went to such great lengths to meet me?"
"On the one hand, I want to see Mr. Li's demeanor, and on the other hand, I hope to cooperate with Mr. Li in the future. Su Chenyu said.
Of course, none of this is his ultimate goal, these are just his foreshadowing.
"Cooperation?" asked Superman Lee, curious.
"Of course, in fact, I acquired the shares of Cheung Kong this time, on the one hand, for the purposes mentioned above, and on the other hand, I also want to hold the shares of Cheung Kong for a long time. Su Chenyu said: "Of course, in order to show my sincerity in cooperating with Mr. Li, I am willing to sell 8% of Suning Real Estate shares to you at the lowest price." ”
"You are really willing to sell the shares of Suning Real Estate, you must know that Suning Real Estate has developed very rapidly in the past two years. Once Suning Real Estate is listed, 8% of the shares are worth a lot of money. After Li Chaoren thought about it, he said very excitedly: "And can you decide alone?"
"Suning Real Estate is my father's property, and our family owns 100% of the shares, so you can rest assured of that. Su Chenyu explained.
Li Chaoren was relieved at this time, took a sip of tea and said: "I didn't expect that the recently rising Suning Real Estate is actually Ling Zun's industry, I don't know why Ling Zun didn't come forward in person?"
"My father's main industry is in the mainland, and my father's identity is too sensitive to the British government in Hong Kong, so it has been hidden behind the scenes. Su Chenyu explained Li Chaoren's doubts.
Li Chaoren is very optimistic about the development of Suning Real Estate, although Suning Real Estate and Changshi have a competitive relationship, but it does not prevent the complementary advantages between the two.
More importantly, Li Chaoren wants to introduce Su Chenyu and his X Fund to become one of the major shareholders of Cheung Kong, so that Cheung Kong's ability to resist risks will be stronger. So at that time, although X Fund attacked Cheung Kong Company, it did not touch Li Jiacheng's bottom line, so he has always sat indifferently in Diaoyutai.
"I am very willing to become a shareholder of Suning Real Estate. Li Chaoren replied, "I think Mr. Su's purpose should be more than that, right?"
Su Chenyu secretly said in his heart that he was really an old fox, and Li Chaoren also gave Su Chenyu an evaluation of "little fox" in his heart. Su Chenyu saw that there was no way to hide it, so he said bluntly: "I want to ask Mr. Li to help introduce Bao Yugang and Mr. Qiu Deba." ”
"You want to see these two?" Li Chaoren was a little confused, so he asked.
Su Chenyu took Li Chaoren's words and said: "Yes, I know that Mr. Li has a good relationship with the ship king, and the ship king got the shares of Wharf from Mr. Li back then. I believe that with the relationship between Mr. Li and the ship king, it shouldn't be a problem to introduce him, right? As for Mr. Qiu Deba, I believe it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
Li Jiacheng could help Su Chenyu arrange a meeting with the two rich men, but he was not sure what Su Chenyu's purpose was.
In the final analysis, Li Chaoren is still a little worried about Su Chenyu's youth, and if he wants to meet the "ship king" who has always advocated stability, he is really afraid that Su Chenyu will do something "stunned" at that time.
"That's fine. But what is your true purpose?, is it convenient to reveal?" asked Li Chaoren after pondering for a while.
When Su Chenyu saw Li Chaoren's contemplative appearance, he knew that he must be worried in his heart. Originally, he didn't want to reveal his true purpose in advance, but when he saw Li Chaoren's appearance, he temporarily changed his attention. Su Chenyu didn't want to leave a factor of distrust in the heart of Li Chaoren, a future partner.
Seeing Su Chenyu's somewhat embarrassed look, Li Chaoren said, "If it's inconvenient, then forget it." ”
Although Su Chenyu knew that Li Chaoren's words meant to provoke him, he didn't care, anyway, it wasn't a shameful thing. So Su Chenyu thought about it and said, "Because both of them have ...... in their hands."
