Chapter 414: Grief ......

"What is the second uncle Xiangjiang missing?" Gu Yaluo raised her eyebrows and asked.

Lu Jiangfan followed her index finger and moved on the map, "I also know that with the reduction of developable land resources in the Central District, Hongkong Land is eager to develop into the vast emerging areas in the eastern area of Hong Kong Island. As the dairy company's cattle factory occupies a large area of land on Pok Fu Lam Road in Causeway Bay, Hongkong Land Limited has coveted it for a long time. However, the milk company is not a small company, and three or five hundred million yuan will be settled. ”

Founded in 1886 and by 1970, the company had grown into a large enterprise with more than 2,000 employees. It owns a large area of land in a thin forest area in Hong Kong, raises dairy cows and sells fresh milk. The dairy company is owned by the Zhou family, a well-respected wealthy family in Hong Kong, and its chairman of the board of directors is a British canonized Chinese knight, who is a celebrity in both political and business circles.

"Wait a minute." Lu Jiangfan's eyes lit up and said, "Luo'er means that Hongkong Land has been waiting for the plane to take its controlling stake into its own hands, and the time has come." ”

"Hmm!" Gu Yaluo nodded indifferently, it is simple to talk to smart people.

Lu Jiangfan looked at Gu Yaluo, who was as cold as the moon, and frowned lightly, "But if you want to buy a milk company, you need to use a lot of cash." ”

Gu Yaluo raised his hand, picked up the milk in his hand, frowned and took a sip, raised his eyes to look at him and said, "Second uncle, what is the hottest thing in Xiangjiang this year?" ”

"The stock market is the hottest! Needless to say? Lu Jiangfan scratched his head and muttered, "But, but what does this have to do with these two companies." But Luo'er will not be so untargeted, although there is a faint flash of inspiration in his mind. blurted out, "Stocks!" ”

"Second uncle." Gu Yaluo smiled indifferently and gave him a thumbs up.

"Stocks? Stock? With his years of experience in the industry and the current hot stock market, Lu Jiangfan gradually sketched out the belly case in his mind. It's just that we have to wait for confirmation.

"Okay, I know how to do it." Lu Jiangfan responded.

In the following time, Gu Yaluo asked him to throw away those junk stocks and buy shares of Milk and Land.

In the 72nd year, due to the consistent improvement of internal and external factors, the stock market naturally rose sharply. Taking advantage of the blazing stock market, many companies have gone public one after another, which has made the atmosphere more intense, and the trading volume and the Hang Seng Index have repeatedly reached new highs.

The speed at which new shares are issued. It's never been faster.

Failure to provide proper restraint to the rush to apply for new listings has resulted in an over-concentration of funds in the market

The companies approved for listing are concentrated in real estate stocks, and the development is uneven.

on post-IPO trading activities. Ignore it and have a laissez-faire attitude, allowing speculators to take advantage of it.

But due to the situation of over-speculation, coupled with newspaper publicity. Ordinary citizens are dreaming of making a fortune and rushing to buy stocks. After that, whenever a "new stock" was listed, the public rushed to "subscribe".

With the original subscription of new shares no one cares, now? If you don't have a little luck and connection, don't think about it.

Therefore, Gu Yaluo doesn't know whether the leading stocks of Xiangjiang Real Estate, which will be listed in the new future, and Changshi stocks, can be successfully subscribed, so he can still play a game for the acquisition of Hongkong Milk.

&*&

Stock speculation has become a common practice for people in Hong Kong. It's like betting on horses in Happy Valley, which has become a gamble.

A steady stream of new companies going public. Saying that Hong Kong is keen on stock speculation, 95% of the customers of tea houses and taverns talk about buying and selling stocks. Which stock will rise or which stock will only be "bullish" has become the subject of conversation.

The barbecue stalls are not immune, all of them are about stocks, and the stock market in Hong Kong is unprecedentedly active, from the wealthy businessmen to the workers and maids, all of whom are keen on stock trading......

"Luo'er, have you watched today's financial news?" As soon as Lu Jiangfan came back and saw Gu Yaluo, he said excitedly.

On October 30, Hongkong Land published an announcement in the newspaper, proposing to exchange two shares of Hongkong Land with a price of 94 yuan at the close of trading on October 27 for one milk stock with a price of 135 yuan in the hands of the shareholders of Dairy Farm Company, and the deadline for the exchange of shares was November 29. Hongkong Land said that the shares in the hands of the shareholders of the dairy company will appreciate to 94×2=188 yuan, an increase of 40%. The par value of Hongkong shares is 5 yuan, and the par value of dairy company shares is 7 yuan and 5 jiao. As soon as the stock market opened on the same day, the dairy company opened at a high price of 188 yuan and closed at a high price of 196 yuan, up 45% from the previous day's closing price of 135 yuan; Hongkong Land's share price also rose to 104 yuan, up 10 yuan, or about 11%. But Mr. Zhou scoffed at the acquisition war provoked by Hongkong Land. Under the influence of the reaction of the dairy company, the stock price of the dairy company fell back to 191 yuan.

"See." Gu Yaluo smiled, "Congratulations." Before Hongkong Land's announcement, Lu Jiangfan had already purchased all the funds returned to buy the shares of these two companies. So roughly calculated, I made three or four times as much at once.

"Rejoice, rejoice." Lu Jiangfan said with a smile.

Gu Zhanyan, who was barbecuing, looked at the two of them and said, "Second uncle, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing with Luo'er, why can't I understand it." ”

"It's a good thing." Gu Yaluo also said with a smile.

"Don't laugh, the meat is going to be baked." Gu Zhanyan reminded.

"Oops! Ah! Gu Yaluo picked up the meat skewers, "It's okay, it's okay." He put it on a plate.

"Luo'er, let's talk?" Lu Jiangfan looked at Gu Yaluo with a rare solemnity.

"Uh...... Okay, no problem. "The place vacated by Gu Yaluo was soon filled by someone.

Gu Yaluo followed behind Lu Jiangfan, untied the floral apron, took off the sleeves, and went up to the third floor together.

Lu Jiangfan changed his shoes, entered the kitchen, and shouted, "Luo'er, what to drink?" ”

"Just give me a glass of water." Gu Yaluo stood in the entrance and changed his slippers.

Lu Jiangfan took a cup of coffee and water into the study and put it in front of himself and him.

"I really made Luo'er right." Lu Jiangfan's thick and white hand held the coffee cup and said, "Hongkong Land proposed to buy milk by exchanging shares for shares, and the stock price was speculated to more than 100 yuan at the opening today." With such a high stock price, the wealth is moving. In the face of money, it is strange that the shareholders of milk are not moved. What a clever move! He continued, "The land has already made a move, and I don't know how Milk will take it." ”

"I'm afraid Sir Zhou didn't pay attention to it. He didn't realise that Hongkong Land was aiming for a large piece of land for the Dairy Farm Company. Gu Yaluo's bottomless eyes slid through a ghostly light, "Without the enemy's hole cards, this battle will be lost." ”

"However, if you want to buy milk, you also need hundreds of millions of funds, and this battle is not as easy as you say!" Lu Jiangchuan is not very optimistic.

"Second uncle. Do you say Hongkong Land's shares are attractive? Gu Yaluo smiled slightly and asked rhetorically.

"Of course, Jardine Matheson is the most famous old British-owned foreign firm. Far Eastern's largest British-funded consortium, Hongkong Land is a blue-chip stock among the blue chips, and can hold their shares, Pakistan ...... Not yet! "The more Lu Jiangchuan talked, the smaller it became. Lost in thought.

It took a long time to raise his head. Lu Jiangfan looked at Gu Yaluo with wide eyes and said, "Luo'er, if they do this, it is not in accordance with the rules." ”

"It's not in order, is that illegal?" Gu Yaluo raised her eyebrows and asked lightly.

Lu Jiangfan searched all the securities laws he had learned in his mind, and said dejectedly, "No! ”

Gu Yaluo's slightly desolate voice sounded again, "Think about how hot the stock market is now, those kind and ignorant stockholders. How many people know what stocks are, what are stock swaps, interest rates, and dividends? ”

"No, I can't. can't be defeated by British capital so simply, and be led by his nose. Lu Jiangfan put down the coffee cup heavily.

"Why do you want to tell Sir Chow? People who are successful in everything are self-righteous and conceited, in what capacity do you go? Every time Gu Yaluo said a word, Lu Jiangfan was short of breath, and finally turned into a sigh, "Prosperity must decline, and when the moon is full, it will be lost, no wonder the ancestors want to remind us to be prepared for danger in times of peace, and sometimes we don't think about it." ”

Gu Yaluo went out with a water glass, Lu Jiangfan was still immersed in his thoughts, he couldn't say what it tasted like, in short, he was very sad.

In the following time, things developed as Gu Yaluo said, after Hongkong Land issued an acquisition announcement on October 30, the dairy company did not respond for a long time, and on November 3, Sir Zhou hired professionals to study the acquisition offer, and six days later, he put forward three major reasons for the anti-takeover for Hongkong Land's acquisition.

This slow, the daylily is cold.

Two days later, Hongkong Land first launched an advertising campaign, which attracted the attention of the whole Hong Kong in the newspapers.

At the breakfast table, Lu Jiangfan was holding a newspaper, and on top of it was a large advertising station, and both sides accused each other, questioned, exposed shortcomings, and elevated themselves through overwhelming advertisements. You come and go, sabre-rattling, and make people panic.

In the calm view of Lu Jiangfan, an outsider, it is actually misleading shareholders and is suspected of violating the rules. But just like the last time I talked to Luo'er, there was no legal prosecution for the violations, and with the background of British capital, it would definitely not be solved in the end.

"What happened to the second uncle?" Gu Yaluo looked at the pain in his eyes and asked indifferently.

"You're really right, I didn't even see the main master, and I was blasted out." Lu Jiangfan smiled bitterly.

"Forget it, don't think about it, this kind of thing, it's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, I can't stop it." Gu Yaluo said nonchalantly, her obsidian-like eyes were always calm.

After the takeover and takeover station were white-hot, the two sides did not use cash to take over and reverse the takeover.

While Hongkong Land deceived good-natured shareholders with preferential terms such as share swaps, dividends, and interbank interest rates, Dairy Farm fell into the trap of advertising warfare and struggled to cope.

After that, Lu Jiangfan saw that a few days later, the asset appraisal of the director of Hongkong Land was inconsistent, which made people laugh and feel even more sad, and the current imperfection of stock market regulations made Hongkong Land take advantage of loopholes.

Another sunny morning, at the breakfast table, Lu Zhongfu kept frowning with the morning newspaper.

"Dad, did you sleep well last night?" Lu Jiangfan just got up and came over to say hello to the old man.

"Just right, come here." Lu Zhongfu beckoned, "You come and see this news and explain it to me." As he spoke, he handed the newspaper to Lu Jiangfan. (To be continued......)
