Chapter 167 CLP and HK Electric
It was late at night when he was sent back to the headquarters by the Gu family's driver, and when he opened the door on the third floor, he saw that the light was still on in the bedroom.
This girl is crazy to learn English, every day, like to take off her underwear, only put on a loose cotton nightgown, wear a cassette recorder headphones, lie on the pillow while listening and writing, brush the ground, soon a piece of paper is full, "bang", tear it with your hand, throw it aside with great grace, and after a while, it is full of one, and it is a "click" sound.
Charter crept into the room, ready to say "Guess who I am" like yesterday, when her charming face suddenly turned, and a touching smile curled up on her lips.
Seeing him sitting on the edge of the bed with a smile, his hands were very dishonest and ready to do bad things, Xia Yao rolled to the right side, and said with a smile: "Hungry, right?" Give you a hot meal, knowing you don't have enough to eat outside. β
The charter couldn't help but smile and asked, "People are in bed, and the rice is in the pot?" β
Xia Yao reacted immediately, a touch of blush flew on her face, and she scolded with a smile: "Big villain, I won't tell you, go take a bath, take a bath and eat." β
She shook her nightgown and ran out of the bedroom and into the kitchen, her willow-like body as sensitive as a fawn, and her two slender legs as swift as flying. She is like a wise bartender, and the glass of life has become mellow and fragrant because of her. Looking at her back, thinking of her empathy, the charter's heart is like a reservoir full of gratitude.
Lando fried diced pork, stir-fried shrimp balls with fresh fruits, fried bean sprouts with snow peas, and a bowl of chicken feet soup with eyebrow peas, don't ask, you know, these are all learned from Mrs. Zuo.
It's nothing if you don't take a bath, but after taking a shower, you find that you're really hungry.
She sat across from her as she did when she was in Lujiawan. Laughing and watching him eat. The big eyes that were as black as the stars sparkled. The thin eyebrows jumped up and down, cute like a little squirrel.
"Why don't you eat some?"
Xia Yao shook her head, held her chin and asked curiously, "Charter, is Mr. Gu's family big?" β
"Kasbah mansion, very big. If you want, I'll buy you a house when I have money in the future. β
"I don't want it, it's infiltrating when I listen to it." Xia Yao pushed the fried shrimp balls with fresh fruits in front of him, and asked again, "Does Mr. Gu have a shelf?" What did they tell you? β
"There is no shelf at all," the charter took a sip of soup, and said casually: "He is worried that we are short of funds and wants to help us, this is a kindness from others, I agreed, 1 billion Hong Kong dollars into NB Bank, each accounting for 50% of the equity." β
Get along with each other day and night, and you will know some things even if you don't deliberately ask, especially the most sensitive equity.
Mr. Li has just finished talking with the SAR government about the share exchange. He flew to the Northeast non-stop and talked with Anton Institute of Technology about NB medical equity. Or repurchase. Either diluted, as long as it involves the core business, it is being recycled.
Mr. Li collects it over there, he puts it here, and it's still 50%!
Xia Yao was stunned, and after a long pause, she asked again, "Is this ...... This...... Does this mean that we have lost a controlling stake in NB Bank? β
Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, they can already take these into account, and the charter feels very funny, and explains in a low voice: "Wife, it's not as terrible as you think." It is important to know that NB Bank is a German bank registered in Germany and operates in accordance with German laws and regulations. Especially in terms of capital, it is completely different from Hong Kong's equity rights.
In addition to the board of directors, there are also trade unions, and there is also a supervisory board at the top, not to mention that each now owns 50% of the shares, even if only 30% is left, it will not affect our control of the bank. Moreover, Mr. Gu did not think about controlling the shares, and he would not even send executive directors. β
I had heard the second sister Zhang Lin say how iron the relationship between "Dr. Klinsmann's friends" and her sweetheart was, thinking that Mr. Gu was a complete stranger to the doctor and his friends, and thinking that Mr. Gu was highly respected and would not do that kind of anti-customer-oriented thing, Xia Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as she made a move, it was 1 billion Hong Kong dollars, and she couldn't help but ask again: "Charter, is Mr. Gu rich, or is Mr. Li rich?" β
It seems that people who have just come to Hong Kong want to know this question, and the charter picked up a piece of snow peas, and said with a smile: "When Mr. Gu was young, he helped smuggle scarce materials in China, and his relationship with China was obtained at the risk of being bulleted, and he is the biggest red businessman in Hong Kong." Needless to say, Mr. Li's net worth is a whole intertwined corporate empire with huge influence in Hong Kong, and he is a figure who affects the whole body.
As for who is richer, Mr. Li's Ho Kee Whampoa is a listed company, and it naturally looks bigger than Mr. Gu's non-listed company. When it comes to self-owned assets, not necessarily. Overall, in China, Li is not as good as Gu; In Hong Kong, Gu is not as good as Li. β
When her fiancΓ© and the legendary Hong Kong tycoon had dinner together, Xia Yao felt very proud and asked excitedly, "Then do you have a chance to meet Mr. Li?" β
"Absolutely."
He raised his chopsticks and pointed to the lamp above his head, and said with a smile: "Hong Kong electricity is monopolized by CLP and HK Electric, although CLP Group has the word 'China', it is actually British-owned, supplying electricity to more than 2.2 million customers in Kowloon, the New Territories and outlying islands; Hongkong Electric supplies electricity to Hong Kong Island, Ap Lei Chau and Lamma Island on a smaller scale, with about 500,000 customers.
A few years ago, during the Sino-British negotiations, Hong Kong's future was unresolved and interest rates were high, and Hongkong Land, which was in debt at the time, sold HK Electric at a low price to Mr Lee's Ho Kee Whampoa. In other words, he is our potential customer, after all, Hong Kong is so big, a power provider and a power equipment manufacturer, sooner or later, they have to deal with each other. β
For Xia Yao, sales is a very, very difficult thing, especially since the customer is still the richest person in Hong Kong, so she can't help but ask: "Will Mr. Li buy our products?" β
"Yes," he nodded slightly, and said confidently: "As long as our products are of excellent quality and reasonable prices, I believe Mr. Li will take care of our business." Including CLP, we will all become our customers in the future. In fact, we are already our customers, and I heard from my colleagues in the Ministry of Commerce that they have purchased some of our small things more or less in recent years. β
"What if they don't buy our bulk equipment?"
One question after another, the entire 100,000 whys, the realm is far worse than the eldest sister. But then again, the more she asked these inexplicable questions, the more she said that she was nervous about herself and her career.
The charter didn't feel anything bad, so he put down his chopsticks and said unhurriedly: "They are all people who understand and know very well who might be their competitors, so under the premise of the same quality and price, they will definitely give priority to us." β
The more Xia Yao listened, the more confused she became, revealing a puzzled expression.
The charter pinched her nose and patiently explained: "Because they have signed a profit control agreement with the Hong Kong government, not a franchise agreement, and they do not specify the area where power can be supplied, theoretically any power supplier can enter the Hong Kong electricity market." And not only do we have a waste-to-energy plant, but in the next three to five years there will be thermal power plants, thermal power plants, and even several power grid companies.
You can imagine what it will mean to them when we have enough track record of safe operation. No matter how good they are, they are only a power supplier, and we are not only a power supplier, but also a manufacturer of power equipment that can produce everything from the smallest switch to the generator set. β
Xia Yao reacted and blurted out: "Power Supply Bureau? β
"The power supply bureau is the domestic name, and in Hong Kong and some other countries, it is called the power company."
Xia Yao was skeptical, stared at his eyes and confirmed: "We generate electricity, sell electricity, and collect electricity bills by ourselves?" β
"Yes, in fact President Daniel is organizing a bid, and if nothing else, it should be possible to win one or two municipalities for electricity supply this year. After all, although Hong Kong is small, it is still remarkable in the operation of the power grid, and the reliability is the highest in the world, which has basically been maintained at the level of 99.999% in the past three years. β
"They've all done so well, can we still have a chance?"
"That's a good question."
Remembering that the ambitious "electricity queen" of later generations wanted to get involved in the Hong Kong electricity market, causing a storm in the city, but finally ended in failure, the charter secretly smiled and said: "Whether the operation is reliable is very important, the price of electricity is also very important, and the public can directly feel how much electricity is spent each month." Competition is undoubtedly the best way to reduce prices, so the public will be very happy to see a third electricity provider in Hong Kong. β
Xia Yao was ridiculed: "If you want to do other people's business, do you want to rob other people's business?" β
Li Superman can withstand once, but he can't withstand the second time. In the end, didn't you shout "I won't withdraw capital", but in my hand I threw away everything I could and transferred the funds to Europe and the United States?
Carrying the state machine to the death, even if it is a real superman, it will be crushed, the charter sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "The temple demon is big, the pool is shallow, the world is big, and I am not interested in wading in the muddy waters of Hong Kong." But we can bluff and not give me business to do, then I will rob you of your business and scare them. β
"It's a bad stomach." Xia Yao laughed and trembled, and in an instant, there were all kinds of charms.
After eating and drinking, and some of them were spiritual, they picked her up, kicked open the door, and threw her to the bed.
Reaching out and pulling it gently, the nightgown faded like petals, sliding to her feet, Xia Yao's face was red, as if she was drunk, her eyelashes fluttered, she slowly closed her eyes, and murmured: "Bad water...... A bad stomach ......"
Ignoring her complaints, he stretched out his hands and gently caressed the delicate body, like a gust of breeze blowing through the water, causing ripples.
The next moment, the bodies of the two hugged each other tightly, and their hands roamed happily over each other's bodies.
Charter lowered her head, kissed her neck presumptuously and gently, her hands gradually strengthened, squeezing the two full peaks on her chest to deformation, Xia Yao gasped and raised her head, a clear cry came out of her throat, Charter picked up her hot body, and brutally pressed down, Xia Yao shuddered and turned off the wall lamp, in the dark night, the bodies of the two were entangled to death, gasping rapidly.
"Light, someone downstairs ......" Xia Yao wanted to remind him sensibly, but unfortunately she couldn't do it, and the passion and shock he brought to her made her unable to push away, she could only sink, only sink. (To be continued......)
