Volume 1 Chapter 291 The Battle of the Banks (Part II)

The Lin family is in a bad situation right now, no, or the Kowloon Bank is in a bad situation right now.

As a joint-stock bank, although the Lin family has always held a controlling stake, this bank is actually a well-established enterprise with other shareholders and a board of directors. Although the shares held by other shareholders do not threaten the position of the Lin family in ordinary times, they can also affect the Lin family's decision-making to some extent.

A few years ago, Lin Jili handed over the chairmanship to his son Lin Jianming, and his eldest grandson, Lin Xiaoyi, as the future third-generation successor of Kowloon Bank, has been learning the way of managing the bank from Lin Jianming's side since returning from overseas study. But the current head and the future head of the company, the two of them were suddenly seriously injured in a car accident and hospitalized, especially Lin Jianming can not continue to manage the bank now, and he may never be able to continue to manage the bank in the future because of paralysis. As a result, many shareholders of Kowloon Bank are now ready to move.

After getting out of the 87 stock market crash, although it is only a small licensed bank, who is not interested in hundreds of millions of assets, and who does not want to take the opportunity to turn it from the Lin family's assets into their own industry?

Lin Jili is already old, which many people have seen. He is already in his eighties, he has just come out of prison not long ago, and now he has to drag his old body to face the blow of his son and eldest grandson's serious injuries, but also face a group of fierce eyes outside, no one thinks that with his old age, he can still bear it.

Thousands of thoughts were churning in his mind, and he rolled in the sea for two years, and he developed Lin Xiaozhi's favor and humiliation. He was still waiting, waiting for his chance to make a move.

"Does Song Sheng mean the bank? It's originally something from our Lin family, what's not exciting, if I want to use it, won't I use it the same? He replied quietly on the surface, Lin Xiaozhi didn't wait for the opportunity he was waiting for, the old man has not yet expressed his position, and he does not have such strong financial resources, and he uses the strongest means to force the bank. So, he had to move. However, Song Nianhui suddenly asked him, which made Lin Xiaozhi have some thoughts.

As he said, the two have been working together for more than two years. Backed by Lin Xiaozhi, Song Nianhui made a lot of money. When the black market was playing with the RMB exchange rate, he also took action to solve the trap for Song Nianhui. And after making a lot of money by shorting H recently, Lin Xiaozhi did not hesitate to directly wrap him with a big red envelope of two million. There is already a basis for many cooperation between the two, and his ability Lin Xiaozhi is very clear, if he can, he would like to keep Song Nianhui in the Kowloon Bank and tie him to death.

Well, for your own use

Song Nianhui frowned slightly when he heard him finish speaking. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly tasted it carefully, and suddenly understood his thoughts. After thinking about it, he continued: "Lin Sheng wants to say this, but it's not false, it's just that the things of the Lin family are not yours Lin Sheng, and there are all kinds of inconveniences to use...... Not to mention how many people want it now, I don't mind revealing a little bit of banker......'s background to Lin Sheng."

"Oh?"

Lin Xiaozhi is really interested, and he really doesn't know how many families the Kowloon Bank has in hand. That gentleman didn't care about his own property before, and after falling out with his stepmother last year, he also moved out of the Lin family, so that it is still not clear how much private property the Lin family's Kowloon Bank has. At that moment, he looked at Song Nianhui with big eyes, waiting for him to speak.

When Song Nianhui saw him like this, the corners of his mouth bent slightly and shook out the bank's secrets: "As of mid-July, when I last checked, there were about 52,000 depositors in the Kowloon Bank, with a total of about 3.8 billion depositors' deposits, of which 70 million were one-year deposits, three-year deposits were about 7 million Hong Kong dollars, and the rest were demand deposits, and there were no deposits with a term of more than five years. The bank holds about NT$8.7 million (about HK$8.7 million) of shares of U companies in Taiwan; Hong Kong stocks hold a total of 13 stocks, worth about 19UU and more than Hong Kong dollars; If the real estate investment is worth about HK$20 million; holds about 10,000 ounces of gold worth about $4 million; 17 external housing loans involved an amount of 100 million Hong Kong dollars. The bank's existing cash flow is about 100 million ......"

A lot of data that is difficult for outsiders to get out of his mouth keeps spitting out. After finishing speaking, he paused slightly, and seeing that he was engrossed in listening, he continued, "Although it is only a small bank, if Lin Sheng has it, it will be difficult to worry about lack of money in the future......

When it comes to the last sentence, it is even more tempting to eat fruits.

Lighting a cigarette for himself, Lin Xiaozhi silently took a long breath and spit out a column of smoke.

There was a knock on the door, and Zhou Huimin quickly walked in with a pot of freshly filled coffee.

"Lin Dong, there are no coffee beans, the company only has instant coffee now" She first poured a cup for Song Nianhui and served it, and then poured him another cup and put it on the table in front of him. Seeing that he was smoking again, Xiu Mei frowned slightly and helped him take the ashtray that was stuffed again at some point and pour it out.

The gentle gaze has not left her since she entered the house, until the woman carried the trash can out of the house, he extinguished the cigarette butt, picked up the cup of coffee that Zhou Huimin had just brewed, and took a sip, letting the bitter taste stimulate his taste buds. After a while, he looked at Song Nianhui and said: "Song Sheng seems to know me very well, Ming people don't say secret words, I am indeed very interested in Kowloon Bank." It's just that I'm not the only one who is interested, and the decision is not up to me right now......"

"They? Lin Sheng, with your means, the shareholders of the bank can't make any waves...... Seeing that he finally opened his mouth to admit it, Song Nianhui disagreed, as a bank executive, he was composed of shares of Kowloon Bank. During the stock market crash in '87, many shareholders chose to sell off and leave because of fear and disappointment. At that time, the Lin family gritted its teeth and repurchased the shares in the hands of several shareholders, and as a result, its shareholding in the bank has increased to about %.

"The problem is, what if this troublesome person is from the Lin family..."Lin Xiaozhi did not get carried away because of a few words of his compliment, as Song Nianhui said, from the very beginning, his opponents were not those shareholders who smelled fishy and wanted to make trouble, but the woman from the Lin family

"From the Lin family......" His words made Song Nianhui stunned, and with a slight groan, he knew who Lin Xiaozhi was afraid of. Yes, Lin Jianming has three sons, although the eldest is young, there is still his mother, Lin Jianming's wife Chen Shaohua. This woman used to be out of the Kowloon Bank, and now she has been serving as a director of the Kowloon Bank, Song Nianhui has dealt with her a few times, but she can also feel that she is an ambitious woman.

His mouth opened, and he had the heart to continue talking about the topic. But after all, it is not the same party, and now the words have involved the Lin family, Song Nianhui also knew that it was inconvenient for him to continue to intervene as an outsider, so he had to raise the newspaper in his hand, he came to see Lin Xiaozhi today, but it was not all to urge him to express his stance to intervene in the battle for the Kowloon Bank, there is still one thing to talk about.

"Since Lin Sheng knows it in his heart, it is naturally inconvenient for me as an outsider to continue to say anything. I came to see you Lin Sheng today, in fact, there is a big deal, I want to ask Lin Sheng, are you interested in doing it again......"

"What's the big deal?" Lin Xiaozhi looked curiously at the newspaper he waved in his hand, while Song Nianhui tacitly got up and walked in front of him and spread out the newspaper in front of him.

It was a "Sing Tao Daily", and if Hong Kong was to talk about international news professionally, there was no doubt that it would be "Sing Tao Daily".

Song Nianhui spread out the newspaper in front of him, gently patted the home page with his palm, and stood aside without saying a word, signaling him to read the newspaper first. Lin Xiaozhi didn't spend much effort, and soon guessed what medicine he was selling in his gourd

"The Eagle of Babylon Intensively Deploys Troops, and the Middle East May Rise Again"

On top of this latest "Sing Tao Daily", a huge photo was printed, and coincidentally, the person in the photo, Lin Xiaozhi, is also very familiar - Iraqi President Saddam. Slightly estimated the time in his heart, the Kuwait war seemed to be imminent, Lin Xiaozhi's eyes suddenly widened, and he raised his head to look at Song Nianhui: "Do you want to do oil futures?" ”

"Why not?"

For him to guess what he was thinking at once, Song Nianhui didn't think much about it. Since the end of World War II, the Middle East has replaced Baryu as the new powder keg of the world. Although the two oil crises in 1973 and 1979 caused by the Middle East peace issue hit Hong Kong and the world economy hard, Hong Kong, as the world's financial center, has never lacked shrewd speculators. Hong Kong speculators, represented by Hong Kong stock god Xiangzhiqiu and futures king Cai Guanlin, have made billions of Hong Kong dollars by gambling on the two oil crises, which has shocked all walks of life in Hong Kong.

Song Nianhui did not have the luxury of making billions like his predecessors, but the situation in the big powder keg in the Middle East is at least slightly unstable, and the global economy will be affected by it, which is a truth that the global financial community understands. It can't be helped, who let the black gold that holds the lifeblood of global industry flow underground in the Middle East - oil?

Therefore, when he accidentally saw the news of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's deployment of troops in today's newspaper, the idea of playing oil futures immediately popped up in Song Nianhui's head.
