Chapter 110: Buying Jiayi TV Station

"Bullshit, Brother Bi won't be playing with me, even if I take the 35% shares, what's the use, Qi Dezun's younger brother Qi De howls that he still has 30% of the shares in his hand, plus the support of other foreign directors, I can't take Hutchison Whampoa." Even if you are willing to lend me a loan and support my acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, it is impossible for the three foreign firms, Jardine Matheson, Swire and Wheelock, to watch me acquire Hutchison Whampoa, and the current foreigners are still very xenophobic. In a word, I can't afford it now, and I'll wait for two years to pick it up.

"This, Lingzai, you don't think about it." Shen Bi was anxious, with 500 million US dollars in foreign exchange, such a big performance, he couldn't let it go, he took Liang Jinling's arm and continued to plead.

"Brother Bi, if you want me to give you the foreign exchange, I don't want the shares of Hutchison Whampoa, I want the shares of HSBC."

"HSBC shares?" Shen Bi looked at him in embarrassment.

"What's the matter, I can't buy HSBC shares, isn't HSBC listed in Hong Kong, I can go to the stock market to buy it."

Shen Bi glanced at him disdainfully, Tu Turtle, HSBC Holdings is a blue chip stock or not, the shares of blue chips circulating in the stock market add up to not even 5%, and there is no market.

"Lingzai, this is a bit difficult, the main shareholders of HSBC are British, you a Chinese break in, may not be welcome, the head office in London may not approve."

"I'm not welcome, isn't Bao Yugang, the king of the boat, Chinese? Aren't Hang Seng Bank's Lam Ping-yim, Ho Sin Hang, Leung Chik-wai, Sheng Chunlin and Tim Ho Chinese? ”

"They have already obtained British citizenship, and Bao Yugang will accept the knighthood ceremony of the Queen next year."

"I can also become a British citizen, anyway, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macau all recognize multiple citizenship." Liang Jinling waved his hand, if he could become a shareholder of HSBC, what would he be afraid of, not to mention getting a British nationality to facilitate his business in the European Union and Commonwealth countries in the future.

Many people choose to immigrate in order to evade taxes or work, such as Big S's mother-in-law, Zhang Xiaolan, the boss of "South Beauty", who immigrated to Pacific island countries. As a result, he was denied entry to Taiwan. Later generations of stars, like Sun Xiaowen, Li Jiacheng, Yang Zhenning, Li Xiaolong, Li Lianjie, Liu Yifei's mother and daughter, Gong Xiaoli, Li Xiaoan, Hong Jinbao, Wu Yusen, etc., are not foreigners.

It's just that the mainland does not recognize that they are not Chinese, but Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macao recognize that they are Chinese. In later generations, nearly 20 million stateless Chinese in Indonesia could only receive awards on behalf of the Republic of China in international sports competitions because they had no nationality. It was only in 2006 that Indonesia recognized them as members of the Indonesian state.

"Ahh Lingzai, you also want to become a British citizen. Dibora asked, covering her mouth, surprised.

"What's so strange about this, I not only join the British nationality, but also join the Brunei nationality and the American nationality, in the future, I can marry as many wives as I want in Brunei, Sister Yi, you like to join the Brunei nationality, or the Utah state of the United States, Utah recognizes multinational nationality and acquiesces to polygamy." Liang Jinling touched Di Bola's beautiful face and smiled evilly.

"You think of beauty. If you want to change your nationality, you can change it yourself, don't pull me. Debora twisted his arm in exasperation, the bull, thinking of bad ideas.

Most countries in Southeast Asia are now polygamous, with only Vietnam, the Philippines and Singapore not polygamy, and Malaysia only abolished polygamy in 1990. The Kingdom of Brunei is still a British colony and only became independent in 1984.

"Oh, if Lingzi wants to join our British Empire, brother, I would like to welcome you very much. Don't worry, I'm a bit of a force in the UK. If you apply for British citizenship, I will ask the British immigration department to approve it. Shen Bi saw that this dog man and woman were still showing affection, and hurriedly pulled Liang Jinling to talk about business affectionately, he had something to ask Liang Jinling, the god of wealth. For such a small thing as changing nationality, Shen Bi can be used as a favor.

"By the way, if you really want to take a stake in HSBC, I can help you contact the Sassoon family, this Jewish family is now in great decay, and they are almost bankrupt by their rival Jardine Matheson. They had long wanted to sell 5% of the HSBC Group's shares, but the offer was as high as Β£500 million, and no one has been willing to accept their shares so far. ”

The Sassoon family? This famous opium "film" family, the former real estate tycoon of Shanghai Tang, is a Jewish family on the mainland's blacklist.

Liang Jinling muttered to himself: The current HSBC is not the world's third largest bank that controls $2 trillion in assets and has a market value of up to $200 billion, and since losing the influence of the mainland market and the independence frenzy of Asian countries, HSBC is now in the weakest period, with a market value of less than 10 billion pounds in London, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

Liang Jinling is not a Kaizi, and he bought that little bit of shares with 500 million pounds, even if he didn't want to buy those opium dealers at a high price.

Seriously, HSBC was formed by a group of opium dealers at the beginning, the founder Thomas Sutherland, Jomley of Baoshun and now the largest shareholders of HSBC are the William Adamson family, all of whom are Scots who bought opium, so HSBC has always run the business with the Scottish concept, that is, hiring talents to manage the business, and Shen Bi is a senior worker.

Including the William Jardine family of Jardine Matheson, they were all second-class citizens of England, Jews and Scots, who could not fight the English in England, and were excluded from the British Isles by the English aristocracy, and could only fool around in Asia and Africa, and all the opium films of the East India Company in Asia were sold by Scots and Jews.

It is precisely because the boss of HSBC is a Scottish that it has always been the second class of people in the UK, and the Scottish consortium has no status in the UK.

"500 million pounds, Brother Bi, aren't you kidding me, is that share worth 500 million pounds?" Liang Jinling opened his mouth to Shen Bi's lion and was very dissatisfied. The grandson of Douglas Raplek, the former richest man in Hong Kong, sold 4% of the shares of HSBC to Bao Yugang, the ship king, for less than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. You're now asking me to buy a 5% stake in HSBC for HK$5 billion, it's a joke. ”

"This?" Shen Bi smiled awkwardly, it seems that this mainland boy is not stupid. "Lingzai, how can it be the same, that was ten years ago, when HSBC was in the most difficult period of the Asian independence frenzy, and its market value was not as large as it is now."

"So be it, Arthur Sassoon of Sassoon. also wanted to sell 3% of the shares of HSBC Holdings, and the price was opened to 2.5 billion Hong Kong dollars. The talk has collapsed, Lingzai, why don't I be a middleman with you and help you introduce the Arthur Sassoon family, how about it. "Shen Bi really needs the foreign exchange in Liang Jinling's hands. HSBC is now in a period of expansion, and foreign exchange has become HSBC's favorite.

Sassoon? Liang Jinling remembered that the insolvent foreign firm, the He family, who used to help them work, now launched an acquisition of Sassoon foreign firm. But it's a pity that the He family wants to swallow a big stupid elephant, and they want to buy Sassoon with a net worth of billions.

"Yes, but Brother Bi, I want to give you the $500 million in my hand for huΓ n. I want Brother Bi to do me a little favor again. ”

"Oh, what's the deal?" Shen Bi asked curiously.

"I know that HSBC owns a 20% stake in TVB. Last week, Lin Bingyan, the boss of Hang Seng Bank, a subsidiary of HSBC, bought 70% of the shares of Jiayi TV from He Zuozhi of the He family, and I want to buy the shares of these two TV stations and give them to my girlfriend for fun. ”

Liang Jinling hugged Di Bola's little waist, drank mandarin duck milk tea with a straw with her, and said seriously to Shen Bi. Now that he has entered the entertainment industry and played movies and theaters, there should be no shortage of TV stations, he has long wanted to play TV stations, and now is such a good opportunity. Of course, Liang Jinling will not let it go.

"TV station?" Hearing Liang Jinling's words, Shen Bi secretly thought to himself that since 1967, the British government in Hong Kong has been very strict with the propaganda media. It is not a British-funded company and a yellow-skinned and white-hearted lackey, and basically Chinese people are not allowed to participate in the operation of TV stations.

He Zuozhi lost hundreds of millions, and he didn't think about it in pain, and last week he had sold the bottomless pit TV station in his hand to Lin Bingyan of Hang Seng Bank.

Not only that, but the other four shareholders, Jardine Matheson, Sing Tao Daily, Overseas Chinese Daily and Industrial and Commercial Daily, have also put their hot sweet potatoes in their hands. Sold to Lin Bingyan. Lin Bingyan bet Jiayi TV to Hang Seng Bank, borrowed hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, and continued to fight alone.

"Lingzai, 20% of the shares of TVB, I may not be sure to sell it to you, you really want it, after I become the chairman of HSBC, I will sell it to you. But Jiayi TV, I can convince Mr. Lin Bingyan to sell it to you. Shen Bi thought about it and decided to throw it to him on Jiayi TV, anyway, Jiayi TV has been losing money since it was launched, and it has become a joke.

", don't give me the good ones, give me the rotten ones." Liang Jinling cursed Shen Bi secretly.

"Well, Brother Bi, if you just buy Jiayi TV Station, I want to add a condition, that is, I want Brother Bi to come forward and let the Cultural and Leisure Broadcasting Department and the Broadcasting Administration cancel the brain-dead order that Jiayi must broadcast education from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and from 9 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. every day for TV teaching. If I could, I would like to add an educational station dedicated to educational films. ”

If he wants to buy Jiayi TV Station, Liang Jinling has to lift the brain-dead TV ban first, he doesn't want to go bankrupt after only playing TV for two years. Thousands of people at a TV station are eating with you and going bankrupt, but there are thousands of people pointing at you and cursing behind your back.

Jiayi went bankrupt, and Hong Kong film and TVB absorbed those employees, and later in 2016, ATV went bankrupt, and thousands of unemployed employees ran to the streets to march, which became the source of social turmoil.

"This? I'm afraid the citizens of Hong Kong don't want to. "Originally, it was because Hong Kong people wanted to watch educational television that the Hong Kong government issued an additional TV license to Ho Zuozhi.

"Hehe, Brother Bi, you're not kidding, when, the nobles of the British Empire, who are high up, need to listen to the opinions of those second-class citizens in the colony."

"Haha, too. Well, if you buy that station, I'll call the Governor, Sir MacLehose. Let him cancel that brain-dead TV order. Shen Bi also fought hard for the performance and the position of chairman, and made a promise to Liang Jinling.

"So, Brother Bi, we're happy to work together, cheers." Liang Jinling picked up the drink and clinked glasses with Shen Bi.

β€œcheers。” Shen Bi also picked up the drink very cooperatively and clinked glasses with Liang Jinling.

Di Bola on the side was dumbfounded, and couldn't think of the fate of a TV station, so it was decided by two men, talking and laughing. (To be continued.) )
