Chapter 510: PCCW
The official listing ceremony was held, Lu Shaohua's identity was made public again, and it was inevitable to make a speech, of course, Lu Shaohua could not go up to speak, but today many members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce arrived, and Lu Shaohua had to go up and say a few words.
The content of the speech is almost the same, all those words, nothing more than the official establishment of Phoenix Communications, and the Phoenix G1 mobile phone will be launched on the market. However, unlike in Shenzhen, Lu Shaohua has a lot less humor elements, and the expression on his face is a little more serious.
"The official operation of Phoenix Communication means that human wireless communication has entered a new era, and we Phoenix Group will also serve the public with a smile, thank you, thank you." Lu Shaohua smiled, and then applauded again, which meant that the speech was over.
Yes, the speech is over, but it only means that the speech to the media is over, and Lu Shaohua still wants to clarify one thing. "Well, today's opportunity is rare, gathering most of the members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, well, it is possible that everyone has been doubting whether the Phoenix Group is a member of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, here, I can explain that the Phoenix Group is indeed a member of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, or a member of the board of directors, so the previous cooperation projects of the Phoenix Group in the Chinese Chamber of Commerce were released in the name of the members of the Chamber of Commerce, not the kind of Phoenix Group released by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce."
Phoenix Group used to look for partners in the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, which is something that many members know, but in the later stage, Phoenix Group has the ability to provide for itself and no longer has to look for partners, so it has not released cooperation projects.
This change also made the members of the Chamber of Commerce think that the Phoenix Group is just a flash in the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, not a member of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and there are quite a few members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce present today, Lu Shaohua can just take this opportunity to clarify, and at the same time, also do more publicity for the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, after all, there are a lot of media present!
Now it's okay, Lu Shaohua's clarification has made many members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce affirmed, and at the same time, they are also deeply proud and proud, yes, they are proud, they are proud, proud that they have entered the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
The management of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce itself is the CEO of a first-tier listed company in Hong Kong, and the chairman is Fok Yingdong, a well-known giant in Hong Kong.
Of course, everyone has everyone's thoughts, and Lu Shaohua can't grasp everyone's thoughts, so naturally he doesn't know what those chamber of commerce members are thinking at the moment, and he didn't continue to speak, but was about to officially end his speech.
"At this point, the official listing ceremony of Phoenix Communication is over, but the end is also a beginning, yes, it is a beginning, our cocktail party is about to begin, please colleagues and friends in the press can stay and participate in our Phoenix Group cocktail party, thank you, thank you." Lu Shaohua made his final speech.
Cocktail parties are a very common thing in Hong Kong, and many people have become accustomed to it, and those reporters are the same, they are also used to it, but a cocktail party like this kind of formal listing ceremony generally does not have their reporters' share.
can listen to the meaning revealed in Lu Shaohua's words, it seems that they have also invited them, and they are naturally happy about this, but after all, they have a job, and they all left not long after the cocktail party was held, leaving only those members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
The media left, and the remaining members of the Chamber of Commerce, all of whom were CEOs of major companies, suddenly turned the cocktail party after the ceremony into a hotel on the Chamber of Commerce, which was really strange, but Lu Shaohua didn't think there was anything wrong, on the contrary, Lu Shaohua also thought it was more interesting.
Of course, the different levels of the members mean that the positions are different, Lu Shaohua is the top figure of the Chamber of Commerce, even if he is the organizer of this cocktail party, he also gets together with the top figures of the Chamber of Commerce, and those who are relatively low level get together with some lower levels and chat with each other.
The reception lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon, and it lasted for four hours, when Lu Shaohua saw off Huo Yingdong and others, and then took the elevator to the office on the thirtieth floor. Entering the office, Lu Shaohua immediately called Qin Sichen and asked her to come up to his office.
Qin Sichen was so busy that it was just Lu Shaohua's call, and she couldn't say anything, so she could only put down the work at hand and catch up.
Lu Shaohua also knew that Qin Sichen had been busy recently, and when she arrived, he would go straight to the point. "Do you know PCCW?"
"I know that the chairman of the group is called Li Zekai, the son of Li Jiacheng of Cheung Kong Industrial, who was listed in New York last year, mainly in the telecommunications industry." Qin Sichen recited everything and told the basic situation of PCCW Group.
Lu Shaohua nodded, saying that there is nothing wrong, yes, there is no mistake, Li Zekai started his own business after coming out of Longteng Fund, and he started his own TV station and capital operation at the beginning, and in just a few years, he is now the chairman of PCCW.
"Well, I called you here for the PCCW business, our Phoenix Communications is officially operational, and we should be able to cooperate in some businesses, you carefully sort out the information of PCCW to see if there is anything that needs to be cooperated, and then go and talk to PCCW." After a pause, Lu Shaohua did not forget to emphasize one more sentence. "By the way, Phoenix Finance, a subsidiary of Phoenix Group, owns a lot of shares in PCCW, so you don't need to put your posture very low when you go to talk to them about cooperation, you can talk to them about cooperation as a shareholder."
As early as when PCCW was listed, Lu Shaohua had already let people start and acquired part of PCCW's shares, which added up to a shareholder who was neither big nor small, and sometimes when PCCW held a shareholders' meeting, Li Yunqing had to hold a meeting on behalf of Phoenix Financial.
If Lu Shaohua hadn't said it now, she wouldn't have known that Phoenix Group owned PCCW's shares, but now that they have their shares, no matter whether it is cooperation or whatever, Phoenix Group has the dominant position.
"Okay, I'll sort it out, combine our side, and then go over to talk about cooperation." Qin Sichen nodded and said.
Lu Shaohua also nodded, and then let Qin Sichen go back, while he went to ponder in the office by himself.
According to memory, Lu Shaohua knew that PCCW's own business was good, but he didn't know what the reason was, in the years after Li Zekai took over, PCCW not only did not bring Li Zekai huge wealth, on the contrary, it also gave Li Zekai a headache, and had the intention of selling PCCW.
However, by that time, Hong Kong had already returned to the motherland, and it was not so easy to sell the telecommunications industry, and it was necessary to confirm the identity and nod of the seller by the country's high-level officials.
According to some gossip news, because Li Zekai wanted to sell PCCW and dragged his father Li Kacheng in, and the country's top brass did not agree, the relationship between the two sides was very stiff.
Since then, Li Jiacheng's investment in the mainland has also decreased, as for whether it is caused by the PCCW matter or what, Lu Shaohua does not know, but one thing is certain, that is, PCCW did not sell it in the end, and it is still in Li Zekai's hands.
In the later stage of PCCW's development, it has gained a lot of market share in both Hong Kong and Asia, no matter what makes it into a desperate situation, but if it is placed in the hands of Lu Shaohua, Lu Shaohua has the ability to bring it back to life.
I don't have to say it, Lu Shaohua has an idea in his heart, then he will definitely take action, a phone call to the chairman of Cheung Kong Industrial, that is, Li Jiacheng's office, and after Li Jiacheng received the call, Lu Shaohua said with a smile. "I said Uncle Superman, your food is good, and now I'm hungry again, can you enjoy the food?"
Just kidding, Lu Shaohua is purely joking, to put it mildly, Lu Shaohua's current net worth is n+ times that of Li Jiacheng, are you still afraid that you won't have anything to eat?
"Don't, don't, don't. If you want to come to my house for dinner, just say it, don't tell me about the appreciation, otherwise I will be embarrassed. Li Jiacheng also has a sense of humor, and he said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go to your house to eat later." Lu Shaohua's joke was uncovered by Li Jiacheng, and he didn't joke anymore, and directly stated the purpose of wanting to go to his house for dinner.
"Okay, well, Brother Huo is also here, you can go directly to my house when the time comes." Li Jiacheng smiled and replied.
"Oh, Old Man Huo is also there, okay." Lu Shaohua smiled even more happily this time, and it was really lively to say a word in his heart, but after all, eating was an excuse for Lu Shaohua, a foreshadowing, and the real purpose had not been said yet, so Lu Shaohua naturally hung up the phone. "By the way, how is your little Superman? Will you be there then? ”
The Li family has produced two supermen, one is Li Jiacheng, a big superman, and the other is Li Zekai, known as the Asian little superman, Lu Shaohua also calls him a little superman in ordinary times.
"What? You're looking for him? Li Jiacheng seemed to have grasped something, but the inspiration flashed too quickly, and it flashed before Li Jiacheng caught it, so that Li Jiacheng had to give up.
"yes, there's something going on with him." Lu Shaohua said bluntly.
"Oh, hey! He doesn't live with me anymore and has moved out on his own, but if you have something to do with him, I'll give him a call and ask him to come home for dinner later. "Li Jiacheng is not a fool, Lu Shaohua must have something big to do after going around such a big circle to find Li Zekai, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, so he responded.
"Okay, I'll leave in an hour and go to your house."
The goal has been achieved, Lu Shaohua didn't say anything more after speaking, and his purpose was not told to Li Jiacheng, and he hung up the phone after chatting a few more words.
