Wharf and Hutchison are Chen Zhiwen's next goals, one of the two is enough to be proud of half of Hong Kong, and the second can pull all the British capital other than HSBC on the table, arrogantly say: Everyone here is garbage.

And these two goals, one belongs to Jardine Matheson, the capital behind the abundant, one is now almost gone, but the biggest creditor is HSBC, the current Chen Zhiwen, even if two years later, the current investment in industrial real estate can earn a few months, it is difficult to confront Jardine, not to mention HSBC, want to fight these two ideas, you can only "take refuge" in HSBC, moreover, in the next few years, with the help of HSBC, during the rise of the real estate market, it is really a dustpan to pick up gold.

......

Speaking of the hotel, this hotel belongs to the Kadoorie family, the owner behind CLP, which is a relatively neutral luxury hotel in Hong Kong, not neutral among British and Chinese, but a struggle between several major foreign banks in Hong Kong.

Although HSBC is not a foreign bank in Hong Kong, its power is more than that of Jardine Matheson, Hutchison, Swire, Wheelock, etc., with the stability of the cake, the fight between the major consortia has also formed a large scale, but on the surface, everyone is still hello, I am hello, everyone.

"I haven't seen you for half a year, and Chen Sheng's company is getting bigger and bigger." At the party, after Shen Bi and several foreign people confronted each other, he came to the Chinese area, first greeted several other people, and then came to Chen Zhiwen.

"Mr. Shen Bi praised it, and I just hoarded some industrial land." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said.

"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about Red Bull." Shen Bi said with a smile: "I heard that Chen Sheng's Red Bull is very popular in the United States, and this is the first time in the history of Hong Kong that a beverage brand can enter the American market. ”

"It's just a little fight." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile, Red Bull's export volume has indeed skyrocketed during this time, these are unlikely to be kept secret, after all, the export volume of the customs, in the eyes of a little powerful person is a transparent number, if someone who is interested in going to the United States to see the price, you will know the approximate size of it, but this kind of person is still relatively small, Chen Zhiwen is currently very low-key in Hong Kong, and Shen Bi, who has worked with him, may pay attention to a little, and Shen Bi cannot know how much Red Bull's profit in the United States is, After all, it is impossible for supermarkets in Europe and the United States to show their contracts to outsiders.

Shen Bi smiled and said: "What kind of company is not a small fight at the beginning, and the same is true of Bao Yugang back then, to be able to achieve such results in the United States within a year, the future is absolutely limitless." ”

"Although the scale of Hong Kong's manufacturing industry is not small, but 9 out of 9 are small fights, not the climate, my goal is to create one or several global well-known brands in Hong Kong." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said that the current Hong Kong manufacturing industry is still very popular, after all, no one would have expected that the mainland in the north would carry out reform and opening up, nor would they have thought that the manufacturing industry in Wanwan and South Korea next door would rise rapidly.

"A year ago, I thought Chen Sheng was too young and his goals were too exaggerated, but now I think that I have lost my eyes, and Chen Sheng does have this ability." Shen Bi said with a smile: "Not only in industry, but also in real estate, I also probably know Chen Sheng's recent operation, I have to say, the risk is indeed too high, I will never let HSBC take this risk." ”

"There are risks to be gained, and I am still more optimistic about Hong Kong's manufacturing industry." Chen Zhiwen continued: "However, doing business in Hong Kong is still inseparable from HSBC, and if there are some low-risk projects in the future, I still hope to get HSBC's support." ”

In fact, in the short term, there are no major projects, because even with a few foreign banks for high-risk leverage, after the acquisition of mass industrial office buildings, the funds are almost used up, as for the funds recruited in Central, mainly for his father's Hengyi company, compared to hundreds of millions of loans.

Next, the most important thing is not Wharf, but Hutchison, because the company's stock price is about to fall to the foot ring, compared to the acquisition of Wharf requires at least hundreds of millions of funds, and in December and the next year in 1975, the total market value of the entire Hutchison is only about 3-400 million Hong Kong dollars, and the opportunity is naturally greater.

It's just that Hutchison's biggest problem is that the debt is too heavy, and its own operation is extremely chaotic, and the biggest difficulty in the acquisition is how to stabilize the banks of all parties, and Hutchison's current largest creditor bank is naturally Hong Kong's local overlord HSBC.

"No problem." Shen Bi nodded, if the real estate market recovered, he would naturally be willing to cooperate with Chen Zhiwen, or rather, with any real estate company.

"Thank you." Chen Zhiwen didn't explain much, and Hutchison's plan still needs to be kept secret.

Shen Bi left after a few polite words.

The whole charity dinner, in fact, is that many rich people take out their treasures and put them around the hotel lobby, which person can give a price if he likes it, and in the end the one with the highest price wins.

This way avoids the cumbersomeness of the auction, after all, there are more things, if there are good things, it may lead to bidding, provoke contradictions, if there are too many bad things, the first-class auction will not lose face.

Chen Zhiwen went around and around, and finally chose a painting that he couldn't understand, and put a check of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars in the box in front of the painting.

"Chen Sheng has a good eye, this is a copy of Mr. Qi Baishi's painting." A voice came from behind him, Chen Zhiwen looked back, this face was too familiar, even if he was 40 years old.

"Li Sheng, hello." Chen Zhiwen came back to his senses, stretched out his right hand and smiled.

"Chen Sheng knows me? That couldn't be better. The visitor said with a smile.

"Li Sheng's Cheung Kong Industrial is one of the five most famous real estate tigers in Hong Kong, how could I not know him." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile that the person who came was Li Jiacheng, the founder of Cheung Kong Industrial.

"It's over." Li Jiacheng said: "I also heard about Chen Sheng very early on, when the Hilton Hotel was acquired. ”

"It's just a hotel that I can't control and manage." Chen Zhiwen shook his head and smiled.

"If it weren't for that, Hongkong Land would probably have found a way to demolish this hotel a long time ago." Li Jiacheng said with a smile.

"Mr. Li is also interested in the Hilton Hotel?" Chen Zhiwen asked, in the original history, Li Jiacheng was acquired in 1976, but it is normal for this kind of large-amount acquisition to plan a few years in advance.

"I used to have this meaning, but since Chen Sheng bought it, then I can only let it go." Li Jiacheng said lightly.
