In May 1974, it joined forces with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce to form Chadong Finance Co., Ltd.
On 15 May 1985, Li Ka-shing was appointed Non-Executive Vice Chairman of the Board of HSBC. In 1986, Cheung Kong Group was ranked among the top ten richest consortia in Hong Kong, and the market value of Li Ka-shing's four major companies accounted for 13.57% of the total listed value in Hong Kong. On April 7, 1990, Li Ka-shing's 'Hutchison', 'Hutchison', 'CITIC' and the British Great Eastern Telegraph Co., Ltd.'s 'Asia Satellite 1' was successfully launched into a synchronous orbit over Southeast Asia by China's 'Long March 3' carrier rocket. By 1991, the Cheung Kong consortium had developed into a multinational diversified conglomerate with important international status and significant influence, with assets of more than HK$120 billion, two and a half times more than in 1986.
Li Ka-shing's miraculous name is synonymous with success and miracle today: he leads four listed companies, including Cheung Kong Industrial, Hutchison Group, Hongkong Electric and Cheung Kong Infrastructure, and has businesses in all walks of life, such as real estate, port freight, supermarkets, infrastructure, telecommunications, hotels, insurance, cement, electricity, networks, etc., forming a multinational enterprise empire with assets of more than one trillion yuan. And Li Ka-shing himself is ranked 10th on the world's richest list, becoming one of the most outstanding Chinese entrepreneurs of all time. All this has earned him the reputation of superman.
Throughout Li Ka-shing's legendary business travel career, his most successful feature is his ability to assess the situation and strategize. Li Ka-shing joined the business world at the age of 14 and officially started his own business at the age of 22. Strive to surpass your opponents; Reach the peak, go beyond the peak; Self-realization, self-transcendence, so people call it 'superman'.
In fact, for Li Chaoren, Lin Yu is also very admired, and the successful experience of Li Chaoren has been studied for a long time, for these successful people, Lin Yu has always felt that they will more or less have a side worth learning, for Li Chaoren's life, Li Lin and finally summed up a place that everyone should admire, that is, there is ambition, like the old man Huo also has ambition, but more is calm, Macau Old Man He also has ambition, but more rely on his gambling skills, But Li Chaoren relied on his never-ending ambition to finally make him the richest man in Asia. Li Chaoren's ambition has also led him to constantly swallow up other companies.
In April 1974, it successfully acquired the American-funded Yonggao Company, took over the operation of the Hilton Hotel in Hong Kong and the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Bali, Indonesia, and successively purchased Haw Par Villas and a number of other land and properties. On September 5, 1978, Li Ka-shing took over 90 million shares of 'Whampoa' from HSBC, and in the same year, he also acquired the British-owned Qingzhou Yingni Co., Ltd. and served as the chairman of the board of directors of the company. In July 1979, Cheung Kong and the Chinese-funded Qiaoguang Company jointly established Yibin Real Estate Co., Ltd., obtained the right to develop the superstructure of the Shatin Railway Maintenance Station, and established the China (Hong Kong) Cement Plant, which was put into operation in 1982. He also acquired a controlling stake in Hutchison Whampoa as a child, and was appointed as an executive director of Hutchison on 15 October. On 1 January 1981, Li Ka-shing became the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hutchison Corporation. Moreover, Lin Yu also heard that now Li Chaoren is planning to spend 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to buy the commercial center of the World Expo in Vancouver, Canada, and wants to build a large-scale commercial and residential complex.
Spending tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, not everyone in Hong Kong can have this courage, and even Mr. Huo almost lost billions of Hong Kong dollars if he wanted to develop Nansha, so speaking of which, Li Chaoren's success is by no means accidental.
However, speaking of which, as the leading businessman in the Chinese world, Li Chaoren definitely has a long face for the Chinese all over the world, although Lin Yu is also quite rich, but most of Lin Yu's money is opportunistic, or in other words, his success is not his struggle, if his success is divided by ten, then 9.9 out of 10 of the credit will be distributed to God, it is the rebirth of Lin Yu in heaven, Lin Yu can be reborn with the memory, in order to have the opportunity to earn so much money, and the remaining 0.1 is Lin Yu's credit, Although the honor is yes, but Lin Yu doesn't feel very happy at some times, so Lin Yu has only recently thought about challenging difficult things, such as the "Leowanta Plan", or thinking about mastering Japan, these Lin Yu has already begun to consider, Lin Yu feels that if he doesn't do something difficult to challenge, I'm afraid that sooner or later he will lose his enterprising spirit.
Speaking of which, Lin Yu is rich, and Li Chaoren is also rich, although not as much as Lin Yu, but among the Chinese people know, Li Chaoren is probably the richest among them, and Lin Yu also has a good impression of Li Chaoren himself.
In Mr. Huo's manor, Mr. Huo and Li Ka-shing sat down in the hall, smiling at each other, and there were two cups of tea on the table.
Old man Huo naturally did what Li Chaoren did, but he was not in a hurry, and said with a smile Lao Li, come, taste my tea, my tea was specially brought to me by one of my juniors, and the world's output is not much, if it weren't for his blessing, my old man probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to drink this tea in his life. ”
This is indeed the truth, even if Old Man Huo later became the vice chairman of the CPPCC, he was not qualified to drink this tea, this tea Wuyi Mountain Mother Tree Big Red Robe, only for the central leadership, so to speak, Old Man Huo's identity is not enough.
"To be honest, we are a little afraid that we mud-legged people have become one of the best people in Hong Kong." Old Man Huo said sadly.
Hearing Mr. Huo say this, Li Chaoren also had some feelings, thinking of the bitterness of childhood, the struggle when he grew up, and then until now, how much suffering he has endured in the middle, and how many people can understand this, Li Chaoren also sighed and said No, after 97, Hong Kong can still be like this. ”
Although Li Ka-shing is relatively pro-mainland and has a good relationship with the mainland, he is still a little worried about the problem of Hong Kong after 97, thinking about the current Hong Kong young people, a large part of them are very repulsive to the mainland, and the celebrities who stand in the upper echelons of Hong Kong are even more scornful of the mainland, and it is not so easy to transform safely in such an internal environment.
Hearing Li Chaoren say this, Old Man Huo smiled and said You will be worried, alas, in fact, who can say this well, but whether it is good or not, we have to do it, after all, Hong Kong is a part of China, and we can't let Hong Kong people return to their roots for an inexplicable future. ”
Hearing Mr. Huo's words, Li Chaoren also lost his temper, but fortunately, there is only Mr. Huo here, even if he loses his temper, it doesn't hurt, adjust it, Li Chaoren said Brother Huo, it's not the matter, Hong Kong is a little chaotic today, are you the reason? ”
Old man Huo listened, smiled, and said Alas, you will come to ask about this, speaking of which, this matter has something to do with the eldest of our family, but don't worry, this time the matter is only for the Hexing family, as long as the other people don't take the initiative to come up, they should be fine. ”
"For the Hexing Society?" Li Chaoren frowned, he didn't think things would be so simple.
Seeing Li Chaoren frowning, Old Man Huo laughed and said You don't think so, to be honest, I didn't think so at first, but in the end, it showed that I really thought about it too much, although this time the matter is a bit big, but it is indeed only for the Hexing Society. ”
"For the meeting against the Hexing Society? Could it be that Hexing will offend people? Or does the Governor of Hong Kong see that Hop Hing will be too harmful to society and wants to eradicate it? Li Chaoren wondered.
"You, you just think a lot, you want to get to the bottom of everything, you were right earlier, this Hexing will offend a person they shouldn't offend and can't offend, and this thing is caused by that person." Old Man Huo said.
"A man who should not be offended and cannot be offended?" Li Chaoren frowned, to be honest, Li Chaoren has the most headache for such a person, not for anything else, just because such a person is undoubtedly a fierce dragon crossing the river, they all say that the strong dragon does not suppress the ground snake, that is, the strong dragon is strong enough, you try the strength of the strong dragon and destroy the ground snake, there is actually no difference between you offending and not offending.
The dragon can't be offended, Li Chaoren also understands this truth, glanced at Old Man Huo, and asked cautiously Who is that person? It also made me have a number in my heart, and if the two boys in my family in the province offend others again, I and Hexing will end up in the end. ”
"You, let me say okay, don't say that your two boys didn't offend him, even if they offended him, with you, they will be fine, hehe." Old Man Huo said.
"Brother still say who that person is, don't really collide in the end, it won't be good then." Li Chaoren said with a wry smile.
"Since you want to, then wait here, you should also be invited by me to think that the guest is coming, it just so happens that my guest is on the way now, you will meet when the time comes, and you will say that my brother is not authentic in the future." Old Man Huo said with a smile.
Li Chaoren was stunned when he heard this, he was naturally invited by Old Man Huo to invite a guest from the mainland to Hong Kong, although he didn't know who it was, but that person must have an extraordinary background and strength in the mainland. Suddenly, Li Superman had a flash of inspiration and asked in surprise, brother, do you mean that person......
Old Man Huo nodded and said I, you are thinking, although I also have some no, but this is what the Governor of Hong Kong told me personally, and it should not come out. ”
"But aren't you inviting guests from the mainland? Will it be able to influence the Governor? Li Chaoren said in surprise.
"Affecting the Governor?" Old man Huo smiled bitterly and said that you are influencing the governor of Hong Kong, you may not believe it when you say it, the governor said that he received a letter from the secretary of British Prime Minister Thatcher's office, specifying that he should settle matters related to that person, as long as that person does not speak, the Hexing Association should be destroyed. ”
"Thatcher's office?" Li Chaoren was stunned when he heard this, this energy is too great, although it can also affect some people in Hong Kong or the United Kingdom, but if it can affect the Prime Minister's Office, this is not the energy that ordinary people can have. Li Chaoren smiled bitterly and said, Brother, you are an invited guest, you actually have such a lot of energy, it seems that the Hexing Club is in a catastrophe this time. ”
"I don't want him to have such a lot of energy, I just do something to him, because of the particularity of his identity in the mainland, so I invited him to Hong Kong as a guest, I didn't expect it to be unexpected." Old Man Huo also smiled bitterly.
"That's fine," Li Chaoren thought for a while and said that the greater his energy, the better it would be for Hong Kong, since you said that he has a special status in the mainland, he must not do anything sorry for the country, as long as there is this guarantee, then there is no harm to Hong Kong for us. ”
Li Chaoren, who is worthy of being a powerful man, can see the benefits of this matter at a glance, if Lin Yu is here, he will definitely be surprised.
Lin Yu did this so much, naturally not only for a Hexing Association, he wanted to make the energy of the whole Hong Kong, only in this way can he completely stabilize everyone's hearts, Li Chaoren can actually see this, and he really deserves the name of "Superman".
Hearing Li Chaoren say this, Old Man Huo thought about it carefully, and said with a smile You just think about it, to be honest, I don't know much about this person, I only know him as an old grandson in my mainland, and I don't know much about the rest, but I can still guarantee one thing, that is, he will never betray the motherland, I can guarantee this. ”
Li Chaoren heard the words of the old man Huo, his heart was very shocked, he naturally said that the old man Huo said that he was a person, for the relationship between the old man Huo and the mainland, Li Chaoren is also yes, it is said that the old man Huo did not fund the mainland during the Korean War, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he secretly handed over some of Hong Kong's technology to the mainland, and after the old man decided to reform and open up, the old man Huo was the first in Hong Kong to respond to the call, so to speak, Mr. Huo has made significant contributions to the economic development and modernization of the mainland, and thus his ties with the mainland are getting closer and closer.
"My brother laughed." Li Chaoren smiled, and then wondered if Jiang Wei had offended others, and would let people deal with him like this. ”
"Hmph, you can still offend, it's nothing more than bullying, threatening or ......" Saying this, Old Man Huo's face changed color, and he shouted loudly to the outside.
Hearing Old Man Huo's question, Uncle Sixth walked in quickly and replied that it wasn't yet, but I think it should be almost there. ”
"Sixth, you personally lead some people to pick them up, you must ensure their safety, especially Xiaoyu, you must not let Xiaoyu receive any harm." Old Man Huo said in a deep voice.
Hearing Old Man Huo say this, the sixth uncle hurriedly answered and walked quickly outside.
Li Chaoren saw that Old Man Huo was so out of shape, and hurriedly asked Brother, is it? Something happened? But just after asking, he also thought of this possibility, and his face suddenly changed color like Old Man Huo, and his face became heavy.
