Chapter 0206: Fight to the Death or the Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell
Tang Huan's accident, there is really no trouble in the follow-up treatment, just let the lawyer stand in front.
In his previous life, people like Zhang Ziqiang, after Xiangjiang was arrested, were finally acquitted, which can explain the rules of the game here.
What's more, those two guys did have a murder case, they were beaten and suffered serious internal injuries, and they were lying on the hospital bed half dead, so they could only say that they deserved to be kicked to the iron plate.
However, Weng Jingjing's strange mother seemed to be involved in covering up the other party and got into a little trouble.
However, this has nothing to do with Tang Huan, he just asked Lu Xiaohu and them to touch the old bottom of the other gang, as a precaution, so as not to pull up the radish and bring up the mud to provoke some additional forces, and he didn't know it in the dark.
Then, he stopped paying attention.
In these seemingly idle days, Tang Huan and his aunt spent the Dragon Boat Festival together, and at the same time remotely controlled the operation of various companies under his name, and occasionally was pulled by Huo Dagongzi to participate in the so-called party of the second generation of Xiangjiang Fu, which was not as easy as it seemed.
The time soon came to June 20th, and on Friday, the last scene of the battle for the Wharf that Tang Huan was looking forward to was finally staged as scheduled.
Hongkong Land, controlled by Jardine Matheson, publicly announced the repurchase of Wharf's shares, increasing its stake from 20% to 49%.
The additional purchase was based on the closing price on Monday, June 16, with two Hongkong Land shares priced at HK$12.2 and one unsecured bond with a face value of HK$75.6 repaid from 1984 to 1987 with a weekly interest rate of HK$100, in exchange for one Wharf share.
As soon as the news was released. The entire Hong Kong capital market was in an uproar.
As a matter of fact. There was such a rumor last night. It's just that everyone still doesn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be confirmed so quickly.
As a result, various media outlets hurriedly followed up to answer questions for the general public.
The reason why Wharf is being scrambled by all parties at all costs is that the area around the Tsim Sha Tsui Ocean Building, which is across the sea from Hong Kong Island, will be relocated to the port and will be fully developed for commercial purposes, as if it has become a golden treasure.
Wharf has approximately 100 million shares. After the last round of competition, Charterboat King acquired about 30% of the shares, Jardine Matheson increased its holdings to about 20%, and the stock price rose to around 50 Hong Kong dollars.
If Jardine Matheson wants to reach the shareholding ratio of the charter ship king and continue to suck in shares with great fanfare, the stock price will definitely rise to about 70, and Jardine Matheson may have to pay a price of 700 million Hong Kong dollars, which is obviously difficult for it to do for a while.
Even if the charter king waits for Jardine to barely complete this goal, what is the point of a similar shareholding ratio?
Especially in April of this year. The charter ship king even sold about 30% of the Wharf shares in his hand to Longfeng International, which he controlled. In order to reduce the personal financial burden and retain sufficient strength, Longfeng Holdings will raise funds to the end.
And even if the charter king fails to compete for the Wharf, he will lose to Longfeng International, without any worries, and the layout can be described as leaky.
It is based on this fact that the outside world generally believes that Jardine Matheson has missed the opportunity and can only pinch his nose to admit this situation, and the two sides should be safe and sound for a long time.
Moreover, the Wharf stock, which has risen to around 50 Hong Kong dollars, is not easy to operate, so the market boom gradually receded, which happened to allow the wealthy Tang Huan to take advantage of this loophole and secretly absorb a large number of shares.
Seeing that Jardine Matheson suddenly jumped out and said that he was willing to give a price of 100 Hong Kong dollars to buy Wharf shares, those who sold Tang Huan's shares at the beginning regretted it so much that they wanted to hit their heads against the wall.
Looking at the endless reports in the newspaper, Zhou Mi's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he admired, "100 Hong Kong dollars, Jardine Matheson is really a big deal, the price of our acquisition, in the end, was almost averaged to 68 Hong Kong dollars, if you didn't add some funds later, I almost couldn't play." ”
"HK$100." Tang Huan snorted, "Don't forget, the big head is the bond with a face value of 75.6 Hong Kong dollars, although the stock sellers here look profitable, but Jardine Matheson is even more ingeniously designed." You must know that at present, the interest rate is high, and it is extremely uneconomical to finance the purchase of Wharf from the bank; If the funds are raised to purchase the Wharf by increasing the issuance of share capital, I am afraid that the mistake of the Wharf will be repeated, resulting in the large circulation and low stock price of Jardine Matheson Land like the Wharf, and eventually become a situation where the car is abandoned and the commander is abandoned. At present, this kind of joint purchase of bonds and Hongkong Land shares is the safest, avoiding the risk of issuing a large number of Hongkong Land shares and diluting their own shares. ”
Zhou Mi sighed, "These foreign devils have been playing with financial capital for hundreds of years, you said that after we open the country, we must not be held in the palm of our hands." ”
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, you are a little worried." Seeing that Zhou Mi suddenly became worried about the country and the people, Tang Huan couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Mi shook his head, changed his words, pointed to the newspaper and asked, "Didn't Jardine Matheson want to control the Wharf, why did he just plan to increase his stake to 49%?" Is it so confident that no more than half of it can be fully controlled? ”
"Pretty much." Tang Huan nodded and muttered slightly, "Don't look at Jianing's ability to call for wind and rain in the Xiangjiang stock market, it's because people have played the rules clearly." However, in fact, the management of the Hong Kong stock market is still very strict, and strict regulations have been imposed on all kinds of trading behaviors. For example, if the shareholding ratio reaches 15%, it cannot be hidden, it must be publicized, and it can be entered into the company's board of directors. ”
Zhou Mi's face suddenly changed, "I said, you asked me to try my best to suck in the stock, but asked to control it under this ratio, I thought you also disliked the stock price of Wharf too high, and didn't want to invest more." ”
"And there is a reason for that." Tang Huan nodded, "If, as you just said, the shareholding ratio is more than half, reaching five percent of the company, then this side must propose a comprehensive acquisition." At that time, if Bao Yugang really throws out 30% of the shares in his current hands, Jardine Matheson will have a lot of fun, 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, what will it take? ”
Hearing this, Zhou Mi thoughtfully, "According to what you said a long time ago, Pao Yugang has a reason to buy Wharf, and Jardine Matheson suddenly raised the purchase price from the current more than 70 Hong Kong dollars to 100 Hong Kong dollars, taking the opportunity to force Bao Yugang to fight, and Bao Yugang's bid will be higher than 100 Hong Kong dollars, in case Bao Yugang is eager to win, the shareholding ratio exceeds 51%, and then enters the link of proposing a comprehensive acquisition, Jardine Matheson will throw out the 20% shares in his hand, wouldn't it be a lot of money." ”
Zhou Mi said as he spoke, and couldn't help but snort and burst into a foul mouth, "His milk, Jardine and these Brits, are they planning to fight to the death or the golden cicada will come out of its shell?" (To be continued......)
