The next day, the weekend.

The news of Lin Zuhui's interview spread in Xiangjiang and immediately aroused heated discussions.

"Lin Sheng is really modest, if I am so successful at his age, I am afraid that Li Chaoren and the charter boat king will look down on him!"

"Work hard, wait for the opportunity, seize the opportunity and wait for luck! Classic, from tomorrow, I will work hard to make money and save money, and when the opportunity comes in the future, I will have the capital to seize him, and then achieve great wealth. ”

"Invest in a big hotel for a long time, so there won't be a fierce acquisition war?"

"Lin Sheng has a lot of respect for the Kadoorie family, and he doesn't make excessive demands, and he doesn't be arrogant because of it."

For a time, the small Xiangjiang spread Lin Zuhui's 'reputation'.

The Kadoorie family.

The three Kadoorie also fell into deep thought, wondering if Lin Zuhui really didn't have the idea of controlling the hotel.

Michael said: "Otherwise, we will also work with Lin Zuhui like the Liang family!" "But because he met Lin Zuhui, he had some good feelings in his heart and believed in Lin Zuhui's 'rhetoric'.

"No! Hutu, the Liang family is a dog at most, but Lin Zuhui is a wolf and a tiger. How could we possibly feel comfortable working with him? It's easy to get rid of a dog, but it's so hard to get rid of a wolf or a tiger! So, we can stop buying stocks in the market for a while, after all, we won't be able to come up with the funds for a while, but we must not let Cathay Pacific City enter the board! Lorence said with a warning to his son.

"Yes, Father!" Michael said helplessly.

In fact, Michael Gao has been in a hurry for the past two days, and the family's funds have been transferred to invest in electricity, and there is not much money mobilized at all! If the family's liquidity was sufficient, they would not have reduced their holdings in the hotel (up to more than 20%) to invest in electricity.

As for bank borrowing, the Kadoorie family also borrowed a lot of electricity, and they couldn't raise funds for a while, so they needed a certain amount of preparation time.

Soon, the Kadoorie family decided not to borrow too much and buy fractional shares from the market; Utilize only the family's working capital to make small batch acquisitions. After all, if you make a big move, the stock price will rise, and the cost will be unacceptably high.

In fact, what they don't know is that this is Lin Zuhui's strategy to let the enemy relax their vigilance, preventing the Kadoorie family from buying shares of the hotel from the market at a low price.

Once the share price of the hotel skyrockets, if the Kadoorie family continues to buy, it will consume a lot of money; Whether to buy or not to buy is very beneficial to Lin Zuhui.

"The First Evolution"

Jews are indeed very good at business, but Chinese businessmen are not weak, and the intelligence and scheming of Chinese people are even better.

......

Monday.

Lin Zuhui came to the office of Cathay City, and the current Cathay City is also a headache for Lin Zuhui, with debts as high as 2 billion and annual interest of 200 million.

At present, Cathay Pacific City is divided into four parts of assets: Furama Hotel, Grand Hotel, rental properties (worth 400 million), and 900 million blue chips invested (300 million deposits).

The annual profit is extremely unfixed, Furama Hotel and Grand Hotel are both listed companies, and the annual dividend needs to be determined by the board of directors; In particular, Grand Hotels, Cathay Pacific City is not even on the board.

The reason why the six syndicates were willing to lend money last time was nothing more than the joint guarantee of Lin Zuhui and New Era Real Estate, and promised to mortgage this part of the shares in the hands of the six banks after acquiring 31% of the shares of the hotel, and dissolve Lin Zuhui's personal guarantee relationship.

The six syndicates even investigated the finances of Cathay Pacific City, and when they learned that Cathay Pacific City had invested 900 million blue chips, they recorded it one after another; In other words, if the stock market is not right, the six syndicates may force Cathay City to repay its debts in advance.

After a while, Lu Donglai, general manager of Cathay Pacific City, came to Lin Zuhui's office.

"The shares of the hotel have grown very much, and we have begun to sweep the market, and we have bought the shares of the hotel worth 10 million last week, with an average price of 54 yuan!"

Lin Zuhui nodded, there was still 50 million liquidity in the account of Cathay Pacific City, and he directly asked the securities company to provide leverage, which was directly enlarged to 150 million to sweep the market.

"We don't need to worry much about the stock market, we just need to sweep the stock strongly. In just one month, the hotel will rise to a sky-high price of 80 yuan. And the Kadoorie family wants to increase their holdings in the market, which is undoubtedly a fool's dream! ”

At this point, the less equity Kadoorie has, the better, so that there will be less voting power at the shareholders' meeting.

You know, Lin Zuhui predicted that the voting rights of the two sides at the shareholders' meeting should be very close;

Therefore, every little reduction in the Kadoorie family's voting power is crucial.

The current Kadoorie family is like a toothless tiger with no claws, just right for training.

Lu Donglai continued: "Then do I need to make an appointment to meet Michael Kadoorie for you, as a rule, we will appoint three directors!" ”

Lin Zuhui waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry, let's talk about it next week!" We still focus on other things, the big hotel needs to be done step by step, can't be in a hurry! ”

Lu Donglai nodded, and reported: "The financial affairs of Furama Hotel have been audited, and the maximum dividend this year is 30 million." ”

Lin Zuhui said without hesitation: "Then dividends will be distributed according to this number!" ”

You can't leave too much money for Furama management, so as not to give them too many rights; Without money, they can't afford to make waves. Moreover, the Furama Hotel will be renovated in two years, and now there is no need to invest too much, just maintain the status quo.

"Okay, I'll arrange it!"

After Lu Donglai left, Lin Zuhui leaned back on the chair.

At this time, he seemed to understand the choice of the Kadoorie family, which was to prevent Lin Zuhui from entering the board of directors, so Lin Zuhui's eyes could only be placed on the shareholders' meeting in May.

Of course, the public opinion work that should be done should not be lost, and regularly express their goodwill in the media to win the recognition of investors. Not only that, but I also have to talk to some Chinese shareholders of the hotel, promote myself, and strive for everyone's support.

In order to get the support of shareholders, Lin Zuhui must not show that he will split the hotel's hotel and real estate business, otherwise he will definitely be spurned by shareholders.

If he really becomes the chairman of the board of directors of a large hotel, then sooner or later he will have to split the business of the hotel and real estate. After all, the former Kadoorie family hurriedly spun off the hotel's hotel and real estate business after holding the hotel for the first time.

The idea is to keep the hotel business first, and the real estate business can be secondary.

"I believe that with my performance, I will be able to impress many Chinese shareholders!"

"The Kadoorie family! I wanted to show kindness, but since you insist on doing the opposite, then I have no choice but to take this asset. ”

In fact, Lin Zuhui has already made up his mind that he must win the Peninsula Hotel.

In the previous life, the Mandarin Oriental brand was famous all over the world, and The Peninsula Hotel has always been complacent, which Lin Zuhui is not used to.

He will not lack money in the future, but he will lack a hotel brand with cultural heritage and history; So once Lin Zuhui gets the Peninsula Hotel brand, then he can open 20~30 five-star Peninsula hotels around the world in the future, and all of them are self-owned.

At the same time, it can also authorize the management of 'Peninsula Hotels' and franchise dozens of brands, so that this brand can become a world-renowned brand such as 'Hilton' and 'Sheraton'.
