Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Acquisition Begins
Two days later, in the middle of Hong Kong Comprehensive City, the top floor office of Huo's Group.
Today, it is Huo Jingliang who is ready to take action against the "Mingda Group".
For this reason, Huo Jingliang specially asked Lei Yaoyang to come over and watch, not only to teach Lei Yaoyang some "sniping" experience, but also to share his excitement and joy.
There is nothing more refreshing for a middle-aged man than output of his rival and showing off in front of his "son-in-law".
At the same time, for the sake of Lei Yaoyang's face, Zhan Mizai was also invited to come to the scene to learn about this large-scale business war.
For this reason, Zhan Mi couldn't sleep with excitement all night last night.
In Zhanmi's view, opening a game hall, opening a mobile phone store, and even saying that where can you make money in finance in real estate, and you can make money by standing in front of the screen with your fingers, which is definitely what Zhanmi dreams of.
At this time, there is person number six in the office.
In addition to the owner Huo Jingliang and his two followers, there are also Lei Yaoyang, Zhan Mizai, and a man with glasses who is about a bald age.
This glasses man Huo Jingliang has already been introduced, and he is the deputy head of China Commercial Bank "Shen William".
He has great power in his hands, and in the China Commercial Bank, he is specifically responsible for providing loans to giant businessmen, and he is the object that countless businessmen in Hong Kong Comprehensive City dare not offend.
To put it simply, the giant merchant has no money, as long as you have the strength, you can borrow from him.
And whether to lend you or not, "William Shen" can make full decisions.
He and Huo Jingliang have been friends for decades, and whenever Huo Jingliang makes a big move, he will definitely invite him to be there, and every time he is invited to be there, he is invincible.
William Shen has a very accurate vision, has always been optimistic about Huo Jingliang, dared to bet, and even embezzled money from the bank many times to provide Huo Jingliang with work.
Huo Jingliang has never disappointed him, he can succeed every time, and he is also generous, giving William Shen the benefits.
It is no exaggeration to say that William Shen has sixty percent of his family property today, all of which are the benefits given to him by Huo Jingliang.
And Huo Jingliang can become a financial giant, and William Shen is the man who stands behind him and works silently.
In the business circle, there is also a saying that William Shen is Huo Jingliang's money bag, as long as William Shen does not fall, Huo Jingliang will never be short of money.
Today's Huo Jingliang looks like a tycoon, wearing a top-level suit, holding a cigar in his hand, and his spirit is flying.
With his back to everyone, Huo Jingliang looked out of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looked down at the dense crowd below, and said in high spirits:
"I take the tram to work at 9 o'clock in the morning every day, and I earn 10,000 a month, saving money and playing stocks, hoping to make a fortune in one day."
"Heh, they don't even know who the real winners are."
"How is it, how many magazines have published the case of Ye Xiaoli's old fox?"
Lei Yaoyang has heard this once, but he doesn't know why, every time he listens to it, he has a different understanding.
And Huo Jingliang's two followers hurriedly laughed, and said:
"Mr. Huo, yesterday, more than half of the magazines in the Hong Kong Comprehensive Market published the news of Ye Xiaoli's liver disease, and some tabloids even wrote that it was liver cancer, saying that Ye Xiaoli was dying."
"Yes!"
Huo Jingliang turned around with satisfaction and said:
"It seems that those two boys are not bad, they have some ability to do things, and they can make half of the magazines publish this news, it's not easy."
"There is still half an hour before the market opens, and I will inform all the brokers below to keep an eye on "Mingda" to see how many people help me make money."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
The two followers immediately took out the phone and dialed, you must know that such a sniper operation does not mean that one account buys stocks, but below is a number of teams, divided into dozens or even hundreds of accounts to buy, to prevent the other party from following the clues to find something, and then attract the attention of the other party.
All work must not be sloppy.
This is Huo Jingliang, there are countless teams below, and they have always had the habit of sniping and buying other people's companies, so they can seem so comfortable, just notify them in advance
Finish.
If it's someone else, you have to prepare at least a few days in advance.
However, in that case, there are many people, and commercial espionage is not without it in this era, and it is likely that the news will be spread before it has even begun, which will cause unnecessary trouble.
Huo Jingliang saw that his followers were busy, and he didn't neglect Lei Yaoyang, and said with a smile:
"Shine, how do you feel?"
Lei Yaoyang shrugged his shoulders and said honestly:
"I don't feel anything, maybe it's not my own decision, I don't feel pressure."
Hahaha!
When William Shen heard this, he interjected on the side, and he laughed and said:
"We have enough capital, of course there is no pressure, this kind of gadget, Mr. Huo has played a lot, what about Mingda, which must be fine, if Mr. Huo needs it, I can transfer 100 million yuan here at any time."
"Huh!"
Huo Jingliang held a cigar in his hand, smiled proudly, and said:
"I have more than 10 billion in my hands, this money should be enough, people from Hong Kong Comprehensive City, a swarm, as long as a major shareholder starts to contact me privately, we have already won this battle."
Hiss...!
Lei Yaoyang heard it next to him, and he was really shocked.
Huo Jingliang has one million in his hand, and William Shen has 100 million at will, in other words, if he does his best to help, it should be no problem to make up 10 billion.
But Mingda Group is worth 80 billion, and with 20 billion, he dares to fully acquire a company of 80 billion, and even Lei Yaoyang himself does not have such courage.
Next, I really need to study hard and learn the skills of "business warfare".
It's too late, it's too fast, and half an hour is coming soon.
Several people all sat down and looked at the computer on the desk, and on the computer, it was the stock of Mingda Real Estate Group.
The opening share price of "Mingda Properties" was seven yuan three.
As soon as the market opened, I saw that the selling orders were piled up into a mountain, and they fell sharply at a magical speed, and in a short period of time, it had reached six yuan seven.
"Hehe, the sheep in the market really can't be underestimated, an inexplicable news, as soon as the market opens, everyone rushes to sell."
William Shen sat in a lazy posture, with a smile on his face, and said.
"People from Hong Kong Comprehensive City, heh, they don't have other skills, and they like to listen to gossip and rumors the most."
Huo Jingliang looked at the screen and gave his own evaluation, as if he regarded himself as a god in his words.
Lei Yaoyang and Zhan Mizai glanced at each other and didn't speak, Zhan Mi didn't even know where to take out a notebook and write down the notes seriously.
Lei Yaoyang tilted his head and looked at the first sentence on the book:
"The dealer is a wolf, he knows how to drive sheep and love tigers, and then swallow tigers and eat sheep!"
Lei Yaoyang looked at Zhan Mi with a focused face and nodded, quietly watching this good show
Soon, under the frantic selling of retail investors, Mingda Real Estate fell to six yuan. Huo Jingliang's two followers held the phone in one hand and said at the same time:
"Mr. Huo, Mingda Real Estate has been sold in a panic, should we do it?"
Huo Jingliang looked serious, raised his hand and said:
"Don't worry, let the housewives all be empty."
What is "panic selling", I am afraid that I don't know if I have not played stocks, but I only need to look at the current stocks of Mingda Real Estate. I saw that its price was completely like jumping off a cliff, and it didn't take twenty minutes to go from six to six. All the people who held this stock rushed to sell it first, for fear that it would be sold late and would be even less valuable.
The two followers were completely unable to hold their breath and kept reminding:
It's four!"
"Mr. Huo, it's two."
That's it!"
"Okay, buy me a billion right away."
Huo Jingliang saw that the price may have reached his estimate, and began to give orders.
The two followers didn't even dare to leave the phone, and they were connected, and they listened to the order and immediately conveyed it to the following.
I saw the stock price of Mingda Real Estate, which rushed in an instant
Six pieces, the increase is so strange that it is simply incomprehensible.
When the Ming Dynasty was in the land, Huo Jingliang directly bought one billion, that is, 200 million shares.
For a listed company worth 80 billion, this amount of money is too much, so the price soared directly, rushing to six yuan in an instant.
At this moment, the display on the computer screen began to slow down, and the price of the stock also fluctuated around six yuan one or six yuan nine.
Undoubtedly, the people outside are not stupid, seeing such a crazy increase, they feel tired and no longer act at will.
"Oh, it looks like the sheep are starting to use their brains."
When William Shen saw this scene, he was still relaxed and commented.
"Use your brain? Do they have us in their heads?"
Huo Jingliang glanced at William Shen and played with taste.
"Hahaha!"
The two men, who don't know how many times they have worked together, immediately burst into laughter, laughing heartily, full of satisfaction and joy of "being in control".
Huo Jingliang also immediately ordered:
"Ah Ban, throw out 100 million, let our people release the news, just say that Ye Xiaoli's newly built real estate involves safety issues, and the government has strictly ordered it to stop selling for rectification."
"Yes!"
The attendant said yes and arranged it immediately.
And Huo Jingliang smashed 100 million yuan, plus a rumor, what is the effect?
Twenty minutes later, the stock of Mingda Real Estate fell from six yuan to four yuan nine, which was one cent lower than the first time.
Undoubtedly, those shareholders outside were completely fooled and crippled, following Huo Jingliang's rhythm.
Huo Jingliang has acquired shares worth 900 million yuan back and forth, and the current stock price of Mingda Real Estate is still at a low level.
Huo Jingliang was also unambiguous, and said:
"Tell me to go down and buy me another billion."
Hiss......!
Lei Yaoyang, who didn't feel too much about this business war, began to feel "blood boiling" at this time, and he also somewhat understood why Huo Jingliang obviously had great talent, but he didn't like industry, and liked to snipe and rob other people's companies.
If nothing else, just talk about this "sniper acquisition", the feeling of being like a god and controlling everything is great.
It's like throwing a person from a high altitude and watching him float and float.
Huo Jingliang also noticed Lei Yaoyang and said with a smile:
"Bright Sun, how are you feeling now?"
"The husband should be like that!"
Lei Yaoyang gave his word evaluation, and said curiously:
"Ule, didn't you agree to cooperate with Ye Rongtian? Now do this without notifying him?"
Huo Jingliang held up two fingers and swung his way:
"I never said I wanted to cooperate with him from beginning to end, and he didn't deserve to talk to me about cooperation, just the dog I let go."
"Ye Xiaoli's fake case is indeed somewhat useful, why don't I use it?"
"As for him wanting to make money on my boat, it's up to him. If you don't even have this ability, you deserve it."
Saying that, Huo Jingliang looked at the screen, and he raised it to the price of six yuan three with one billion, and ordered:
"Ah Ban, let out the news again, Ye Rongjin, director of Mingda Real Estate, made a mistake in decision-making, resulting in Mingda Real Estate buying land worth two billion, but it cannot be used for commercial purposes at all."
"Yes!"
The attendant listened to the order and immediately spoke into the phone again.
Seeing this scene, Lei Yaoyang completely understood what it meant to cut leeks, and this was it.
Every time Huo Jingliang bought stocks at a low price, after the price was raised, he immediately sent someone to release bad news to the market. Those retail investors in the market, and they don't have their own sources, they don't have anything to listen to.
Can they withstand the first time, the second time, and the third time?
Everyone's tolerance is limited, bad news is flying, and under the constant scare, most retail investors choose to sell. This time the gods operated down, even if
Lei Yaoyang doesn't play stocks much, and he knows that there are many people who vomit blood at a loss. As for Huo Jingliang, at a very low price, he has bought a lot of shares of Mingda Real Estate.
Of course, this practice is not ethical, retail investors can ignore it and bear their own profits and losses, but Ye Rongtian's side should be reminded of it. People have helped, so you have to repay it.
Even if you don't tell people when to buy, you should inform them, just hold it in your hand after buying, don't move, the current waves are just Huo's means.
But Huo Jingliang is proud of himself and doesn't mention it at all.
As he said, in his opinion, if Ye Rongtian is bluffed by these means, he is not worthy of making money, and he deserves to lose money. At the same time, there is a small real estate company called "Litian" in Sheung Shui, Hong Kong Comprehensive City.
Compared with the splendor of Huo Jingliang's office, the gap here is too big, there are a few ordinary desks on the first floor, the decoration is simple, and there is even a rotating blade fan installed on the head.
The conditions on the second floor are better, but there is still no decent furniture in sight, but the desk is big enough, and there is also an old computer Ye Rongtian and Xu Wenbiao, sitting opposite each other, right here. The two looked at the computer, and the screen was the same as Huo Jingliang's side, which was also the stock price of Mingda Real Estate.
"Ming fell left and right, and it rebounded immediately, Huo Jingliang should have made a move."
Ye Rongtian was very calm, looking at Mingda's strange ups and downs today, and said. Xu Wenbiao was a little indignant, and said:
"Huo Jingliang, that old fox, he doesn't believe us at all, if we play like this, if we can't hold our breath a little, we will lose."
Ye Rongtian shook his head and said:
"It's not that you can't believe it, it's that you don't look down on us at all."
Saying that, Ye Rongtian looked at Xu Wenbiao with a smile and said meaningfully:
"Are we really helping Huo Jingliang?"
This sentence is really the best comfort, Xu Wenbiao also laughed when he heard it, shook his head and said:
"Of course not, we're just making money from him."
"That's fine, how much do we make now?"
Ye Rongtian raised his eyebrows and said with a bright face. Speaking of this, Xu Wenbiao was in a better mood:
"When we were the first at Minnesota University, we bought 30 million, 6 million shares. When I was six dollars, I had already thrown them all away, and I made six million, "The second time, I bought 36 million, and when I threw six dollars, I made another seven million and 200,000 yuan."
"Third, I continue to buy 43.2 million, 8.64 million shares, that is, for every dime per liter of Minta, we will earn 860,000."
"Good!"
Ye Rongtian was very happy when he heard it, and said:
"Don't move, now we give time for Huo Jingliang to buy goods, his tricks are almost played, no matter how stupid the retail investors outside are, they won't always listen to the rumors."
"Judging from the current situation, it is no longer so easy for him to lower the price."
As he spoke, Ye Rongtian suddenly said solemnly:
"By the way, how did that Lei Yaoyang find out?"
"After checking, in addition to being a senior superintendent of Hong Kong Comprehensive City, he is also the world god of gambling, and the World Gambling Association has a salary of more than 100 million yuan into his account every year, and this money is innocent."
"In addition, he is also Huo Jingliang's son-in-law, and he and Huo Xixian are boyfriend and girlfriend, and they have a good relationship."
After Xu Wenbiao said this, he commented:
"Huo Jingliang should have just come to him, not really planning to borrow money from him. The money he can come up with is only a few hundred million at most, and he definitely can't support Huo Jingliang."
After listening to Xu Wenbiao's introduction, Ye Rongtian was not at ease, and said:
"There's still a lot of time anyway, so let's check it again."
"I feel that Huo Jingliang found that Lei Yaoyang to talk about money, it shouldn't be so simple."
"If we want to win this battle, we must let Huo Jingliang have no money to buy, so it's better to be careful."
Xu Wenbiao listened reasonably, nodded, and immediately picked up the phone and dialed. At the same time, the "Minnesota Real Estate Company" in Central.
This company is actually only a subsidiary of the Mingda Group, but it is also the most important company in the Mingda Group. Everyone in Hong Kong Comprehensive City knows that Mingda Group started with real estate, even if their group's current business has involved various fields, but the old people in Hong Kong Comprehensive City, as long as they hear Mingda, they will only think of real estate.
Therefore, this company has always been the top priority of Mingda Group.
If something goes wrong with this company, the entire Mingda Group will be hit too hard, both in terms of reputation and substance.
Everyone will think that your own son like Dalian Real Estate Company can't be saved at all, is it going to collapse?
Therefore, Ye Xiaoli has always attached great importance to Mingda Real Estate and handed over this company to the eldest son and second son to manage together.
It's a pity that Ye Xiaoli is a business wizard, and his son is far behind.
His eldest son Ye Rongjin, because he is the eldest son in the family, his father has high expectations for him since he was a child, and at the age of 16, he made him sit next to him to observe the meeting, and at the age of 23, he learned to do his first business, and was scolded by Ye Xiaoli until he cried because of the loss of yuan.
Ye Xiaoli is too strong, Ye Rongjin is just a "middle-aged person", and under the suppression of his father for a long time, his ability, which was not strong, became weaker.
Slowly, I couldn't see hope, so I simply gave up on myself, and gradually began to become obsessed with wine and become a gentleman.
It's just that he is a little better than the average gentleman, and he can go to work and understand some business things.
Son Ye Rongyi, who is filial on the surface, pretends to be a brother and a brother, and is very good at pleasing Ye Xiaoli.
But in private, he was jealous that his eldest brother had too many opportunities, and his younger brother was even more loved by his father, so he was very dissatisfied.
His ruthless means, big wisdom and strategy, but there are countless small means, in ancient times, he was definitely an excellent dog-headed military advisor.
Although the two brothers don't often keep an eye on their company's stock, the price movement of their company's stock this morning is so strange that it still attracts their attention.
After discovering the anomaly, the two brothers immediately inquired.
It doesn't matter if you don't ask, as soon as you ask, the lungs of the two brothers are about to explode.
Now the news about "Mingda" is spreading on the outside exchanges, including Ye Xiaoli's liver cancer, Ye Rongjin's decision-making mistakes, his purchase of rotten land, and even his family's discord and derailment.
And all the rumors add up to one conclusion:
"Mingda Group is about to lose its hold, and it is about to go out of business, everyone has Mingda shares in their hands, so sell them quickly!"
According to common sense, the sum of so much bad news is enough for the share price of Mingda Real Estate to fall from seven yuan.
But what is even more peculiar is that by the close of noon, Mingda's share price did not fall but rose, compared with the opening in the morning, it also rose by one price, reaching seven yuan and two cents.
The two brothers reacted at this time:
This is definitely someone who is making trouble, deliberately releasing bad news and taking the opportunity to absorb the shares of "Mingda Real Estate".
I just don't know what the purpose of that person is, what he wants to do.
As a well-known enterprise in Hong Kong Comprehensive City, since Ye Xiaoli started, he has never encountered this kind of thing.
No matter how fierce those stock market predators are, they generally won't come to provoke a foundation enterprise like "Mingda", after all, Mingda is an industrialist, and this kind of company generally goes very steadily, and there is no problem of broken capital chain.
In other words, if you want to buy this kind of company, they can come up with money in a minute to fight back, and you will return in vain. When the time comes, it will be bad to lose people and money.
Because they hadn't encountered it, the Ye brothers, who were not elites, were a little panicked, and the first thing they thought of was not how to solve it, but to call Ye Xiaoli.
Ye Xiaoli attached great importance to this matter, and immediately drove from the headquarters, which was also the time when the stock market opened in the afternoon. The splendid Yip's Real Estate Company in the chairman's office.
The three fathers and sons of the Ye family sat in front of a computer, looking at some weird undulating numbers, and the atmosphere was heavy, and the eldest son Ye Rongjin was not idle, and was explaining to Ye Xiaoli:
"Dad, I don't know who released the news that there is something wrong with your liver, and it is even rumored to be liver cancer
The tabloids and magazines have covered it."
"As soon as our stock opened this morning, it immediately fell off a cliff. But when it falls to one place, it suddenly rebounds again, and it often repeats itself many times."
"I think someone is doing something, should we check?"
The second son, Ye Rongyi, was not to be outdone, and said very angrily:
"It's so unbelievable, there is nothing at all, and you dare to make something out of nothing. Dad, I'll find a lawyer team right away and send lawyers' letters to those newspapers and magazines."
Ye Xiaoli's expression was calm, and he fiddled with the mouse while listening to the reports of his two sons.
After two minutes, Fang stopped, looked at his eldest son, and said seductively:
"In this case, someone is indeed playing tricks. But the opponent is not stupid, they don't buy big money all at once, they must have a planned action."
"Maybe they have hundreds of accounts, we can't afford to check, it takes too much time. When we find out what's going on, maybe the opponent has already achieved his goal."
As he spoke, Ye Xiaoli looked at his youngest son again:
"Magazines and newspapers, their favorite thing is to break news, tell them it's okay, but it's not what we're going to do now." "Now that we know that someone is doing something, what we need to do now should be to fight back."
"Dad, what are we going to do then? Now we don't even know who the opponent is, how can we fight back?"
Ye Rongjin was puzzled and asked.
"Hey!"
Ye Xiaoli looked at the two panicked sons, and sighed in his heart, knowing that if he didn't say a way, these two would be completely blind.
sighed that he was a "tiger father and dog son", Ye Xiaoli still had to make arrangements immediately:
"Rong Jin, you immediately go and contact those shareholders of Mingda Real Estate, as long as they have more than one percent in their hands, they must be notified."
"We must stabilize their confidence and tell them that our company is developing very well and there are no problems at all."
"Regarding the question of my liver, remember, don't deliberately clarify, this kind of thing, the more you talk about it, the more it means that your heart is empty. If other shareholders ask about you, you pretend you don't know anything, and you can even say that such a strange rumor is interesting."
"As for you, Rong Yi, prepare for me, I will hold a press conference to announce the development plan of our Mingda Real Estate in the next six months to stimulate the outside world."
"Yes, Daddy!"
After Ye Xiaoli said this, the two Ye brothers seemed to have a backbone, and they responded to the order, got up and left.
