Shen Chong took five minutes to walk to his office, and then it took fifteen minutes to get all the documents for the mortgage and guarantee, when he took the paperwork, accompanied by Wu Guangzheng, and was about to go to the headquarters of HSBC, the road was narrow, and at the elevator entrance, he happened to meet Niu Bijian and Bao Fuda, who came to negotiate.
"Mr. New Bijian, Mr. Bao Fuda." Shen Chong greeted the two warmly and said, "Good morning, no, it's good afternoon." ”
The Hong Kong stock market opens at 10 o'clock in the morning, closes at noon, opens at l:30 in the afternoon, and closes at 4 o'clock.
When Niu Bijian saw him, his face immediately turned pale, and he didn't even care about etiquette, his eyes were like an eagle, staring at him and asking, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I have an appointment with Sir Bao to discuss a business today." Shen Chong raised the document bag in his hand very flamboyantly and said, "It's been negotiated." ”
This time, in order to show sincerity and lower his status, he came to the Prince Building to see Bao Yugang in person, but found that Bao Yugang was two-faced, while negotiating with him, he also hooked up with Shen Chong, who held the key shares of Wharf, he was very angry, and asked Wu Guangzheng in a cold voice: "Mr. Wu, what does this mean?" ”
"Mr. Shen passed by here a few minutes ago, and by the way, he signed a contract with Jiayue, which is a business that was set a long time ago, and it has nothing to do with the two of them." Wu Guangzheng was cunning, he gave Shen Chong a look, and then said enthusiastically; "Mr. Niu Bijian, Mr. Bao Fuda, please, come this way, Jiayue is very much looking forward to the presence of the two of you, not only prepared delicious food and wine in the office, but also specially ordered me to come here to greet the two."
Shen Chong was very cooperative, shook hands with Wu Guangzheng with an indifferent smile, and said, "Mr. Wu, I still have to go to the exchange, so I will leave first." Mr. New Bijian, Mr. Bao Fuda, goodbye. ”
Niu Bijian kept staring at him until the elevator door closed, and then his face darkened, and he followed Wu Guangzheng to Bao Yugang's office.
Although Bao Yugang prepared a large table of sumptuous Chinese food in his luxurious office, and sincerely lowered the price of the negotiation a lot, the negotiation only lasted half an hour before it ended.
After sending Niu Bijian and the two away, Bao Yugang sat back at the makeshift dining table, picked up his chopsticks, and took a piece of food that barely moved his chopsticks, and said: "Although Niu Bijian is very cautious, he has not really realized Shen Chong's ability until now, and he will suffer a big loss this time." ”
"Dad, how far do you think Shen Chong can make trouble?"
"Jardine Matheson's plate is too big for me to eat, and he can't do it anymore." Bao Yugang chewed slowly, and after eating the food, he said: "He should be trying to play a hostile takeover, forcing the board of directors of Jardine Matheson to buy his shares at a high price and make a quick buck from it." ”
"If the hostile takeover is too risky, the board of directors of Jardine Matheson is all British, even if he becomes the largest shareholder, he will not be able to gain a foothold on the board of directors, let alone threaten the position of the Taipan of New Bijian, if Jardine Matheson does not move, he will definitely be trapped, and after the stock price falls, the loss will be very heavy." Wu Guangzheng was puzzled and said: "Unless he can buy more than 20% of the shares of Jardine Matheson and occupy an absolute dominant position, but that is unlikely, I just got the news that the share price of Jardine Matheson is close to 40 yuan, and it will definitely continue to rise, and he doesn't have so much money." ”
"The British are also people, and in the face of business, there is no nationality." Bao Yugang put down the chopsticks, picked up the small bowl, scooped a winter melon cup, and said: "In the past few years that Niu Bijian has been doing a big class, the stock price of Jardine Matheson has been sluggish, and many people are dissatisfied with him. ”
Wu Guangzheng was thoughtful.
"You don't have to worry about other people's affairs." Bao Yugang didn't use the spoon, but took the bowl and drank the soup directly, and after drinking, he said; "Shen Chong's sniping of Jardine Matheson this time has created a great opportunity for us to take over Wharf. Go to HSBC and help him complete the borrowing process. ”
At the beginning, Jardine Matheson and Pao Yugang negotiated, and they were reluctant to use the Prince Building as a bargaining chip, because the geographical location of this building is really good, it is the heart of Central, the golden treasure in the golden treasure land, there is no need to go downstairs to the street, through the pedestrian bridge, you can connect the Landmark Plaza, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, the Standard Chartered Bank headquarters, and the HSBC headquarters, shopping, office, finance, accommodation, catering, everything is available, and all of them are the top and best in Hong Kong, such superior conditions, the rent is naturally extremely expensive, as long as you hold it in your hand, It's a hen that lays golden eggs.
"Alan, you're the most confident person I've ever met." Shen Bi handed Shen Chong a glass of whiskey and said, "With such an important investment, you actually stayed in Taiwan for a whole week and didn't come back, and I read the report, you still had a good time, aren't you worried at all?" ”
Shen Chong raised the glass and responded to his compliment, then took a slight sip and said, "I'm not confident, I just trust the ability of my employees, and of course, katariu"
"Katariu is a very charming and magical woman." Shen Bi sat back in the wide and thick office chair and teased: "Allen, I envy you, you are out and there with your lover who is a movie star, Katariu actually didn't punish you, you must have a trick to charm women, right?" ”
"Nope." Shen Chong lowered his head and played with the wine glass and said, "I'm just lucky to have met a good woman." ”
Shen Bi looked at his troubled look, laughed, and said, "Allen, don't offend women, especially a woman as outstanding as Katariu, otherwise it will be terrifying." ”
"If only you had told me this time last year." Shen Chong picked up the wine glass again, took an extra sip, and asked, "How is it?" All the documents are complete, right? ”
"No problem, Sir Bao is our director of HSBC, he is very knowledgeable and has all the documents." Shen Bi put the wine glass on the desk, knocked on the document bag, and said, "As long as Mr. Wu comes over and signs the confirmation, he will be able to get the loan in a hurry." ”
"That's good."
In order to hide people's eyes, Yuan Tianfan bought the shares of Jardine Matheson last week through HSBC's Victorious Investment Company, so Shen Bi knew very well how many stocks Shen Chong had in his hands, and he asked with interest: "How did you get in the stock market this morning?" Is there more than 10%? ”
"There is almost no gain." Shen Chong shook his head and said, "Jardine Matheson has already started to act, and before I came here, the stock price had exceeded 30 yuan. ”
If business is also divided by nationality, Shen Bi is Hong Kong's number one "traitor", has been vigorously supporting promising Chinese entrepreneurs, Bao Yugang, Li Ka-shing, Zheng Yutong and others, have benefited a lot, of course, capital has no borders, he does this, just to adapt to the needs of the times, chasing profit maximization, and skin color, nationality and geography have nothing to do with him, if you can't bring him huge profits, whether you are Chinese or British, you can turn your face in the blink of an eye.
And now, he is obviously optimistic about Shen Chong, abandoned Niu Bijian, and said: "Don't be nervous, Jardine Matheson has limited cash, can't support the high price, and the stock price will fall soon, and after you get the 800 million funds, I'm afraid Niu Bijian will not have the power to fight back." ”
"I hope so."
"Alan." Shen Bi sat up straight and asked, "If you join Jardine Matheson, how do you plan to run it?" ”
"Jardine Matheson's current UU assets are all overseas, with too many businesses, too wide a scope, huge and chaotic, and unclear main business." Shen Chong also replied: "If I do a large class, I will streamline my business, dismantle and sell most of my overseas assets, return to my roots, focus on trade, base myself in Hong Kong, and expand the mainland, the mainland's economic potential is extremely huge, and there are unlimited business opportunities." ”
"I'm very optimistic about your empirical strategy, there are 1 billion consumers in the mainland, and each person provides a Hong Kong dollar, which is a lot of money." Shen Bi approved, said: "To be a businessman, you must have a flexible mind, and you will change your business methods according to the environment and the times, Niu Bijian is an orthodox gentleman, but unfortunately he is not a good businessman, he is too old-fashioned, conservative, does not understand innovation, and his thinking is still stopped in the early 70s, and now, it is the ru era"
After he finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and persuaded, "Alan, how about I help you?" As long as you take the American video game company as collateral, I can lend you another 1 billion Hong Kong dollars, with this l000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 ”
Shen Chong laughed and said: "NH1 don't say 1 billion Hong Kong dollars, it is 1 billion US dollars, I will not use the game company as collateral, that is my cash cow, Jardine Matheson is not worth it for me to risk it."
"If you can't do a game company, what about Apple's stock?"
"I have mortgaged Apple's shares to Citibank, otherwise, where would I get so much money to invest in the United States."
"Oh, what a pity." Shen Bi was annoyed, patted his head, and asked again, "What about Sony's stock?"
"NH1, you're such a hungry wolf." Shen Chong said ambiguously: "It depends on the situation, if the battle situation is unfavorable, I will come to you to borrow money again, and I will give you whatever you want at that time." ”
"That's for the best." Shen Bi raised his wine glass with a smile and said, "If you are twenty years older, I will definitely recommend you to be the next HSBC senior, you are a natural financial speculator." ”
"I don't have the luxury of doing a big class." Shen Chong dipped his lips in the wine and put it down, saying, "I wonder if I have the opportunity to join the board of directors of HSBC like Sir Bao?" ”
"Alan, you know, anything is possible."
