Hong Kong Stock Exchange:

"It's up, it's up, it's up, it's up, it's broken 2.8 in a single share, and it's still rising." In the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, countless securities operators, looking at the blackboard in front of them, the position of Hutchison stocks is constantly being updated, every ten minutes, there is a rise of a few cents, outsiders, this is not much, but for a giant company with 300 million shares, a penny of rise represents millions of Hong Kong dollars.

"It's made, it's made, we're making a lot of money." In the securities exchange, many people were so excited that they almost cried, and in the crowd, the middle-aged man Lao Wang and his curly-haired friend almost burst into tears, earning a lifetime of wealth in half a day, and everyone would cry happily.

"Do you want to throw it away now?" The curly-haired man asked.

"No, wait, now that a lot of money has entered the market, there will definitely be a big move next." Lao Wang felt that the wealth of a lifetime was not enough, and he wanted to earn a few more lifetimes.

Similarly, everyone in the securities exchange is so excited, although Hutchison shares have rotted into penny stocks, but they can't withstand someone to buy it, it will inevitably rise sharply, looking at the stock rise, the people behind it will definitely not stop until they succeed.

In the stock exchange, the cries came and went, and Hutchison stocks stole all the light.

In a corner, Qi Dezun looked at the cheering crowd with a deep face, and Richard, the vice president of Hutchison, was also silent and did not speak.

After a while, Hutchison's stock rose to 2.9 Hong Kong dollars, and there was no intention of stopping, Qi Dezun asked slowly: "Those leather bag accounts are still buying Hutchison's shares?" ”

"It's being collected, it's not stopping." Richard nodded lightly.

"Which one is behind it?" Qi Dezun clenched his fists and said angrily.

"I've used all my connections these days, and I don't know who it is, but a friend from a bank told me that the person who bought Hutchison may have the funds from overseas." Richard said.

"Overseas?" Qi Dezun frowned, there are too many overseas consortia, who knows which one?

The securities market is still so lively, Qi Dezun and a few people walked out, and the irony is that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is inside the Hutchison Building, and their top management of Hutchison is watching others in their own territory keep buying Hutchison stocks, but they can't even find out anyone.

After returning to his office upstairs, Qi Dezun asked, "Can you find out how many shares the other party has?" ”

Richard replied: "We traced the data transactions on the stock market from the beginning of the year to the present, and roughly estimated that the other party already has at least 20% of the shares, considering that the stock price has been falling last year, the data cannot be confirmed, and many small shareholders have sold their shares separately, and the shares in the hands of the other party are estimated to be 30%, which may be more." ”

"In other words, the other party may already be the largest shareholder." Qi Dezun frowned and said, he also tried to find some relationships during this time, but now in the situation of Hutchison, people see him like seeing a plague god, there is no way at all, they can only watch the acquirer who doesn't know who is constantly increasing their share of shares.

"There is this possibility, but the other party has not shown up yet, which is very strange." Richard said.

Qi Dezun thought for a while and said, "The only explanation is that the number of acquisitions has not yet reached his target. ”

"They're trying to buy more." Richard was surprised that the acquisition between general companies is basically about the same when it reaches 33.4%, in this case, the other shareholders can overturn the position of the majority shareholder unless they unite more than 50%, but if there is already more than 40%, then even if the other shareholders oppose it, they will not be able to do more voting power.

Of course, the more you go to the later the acquisition, the more difficult it will be, especially now that the whole of Hong Kong knows that Hutchison is being acquired.

"Richard, immediately put out a list, which should include all the core people of the entire Hutchison Group, we need to make an agreement, no matter who buys Hutchison, if they just invest, but if they want to change the management, then we must unite, Hutchison's business involves hundreds of kinds, and it is absolutely impossible for an external team to get started easily, as long as we are united, once the other party sends any managers, we will strike immediately." Qi Dezun thought for a while and said.

"Okay, I see." Richard nodded, the equity is controlled by the other party, at the legal level, there is no room for opposition on his side, but as long as his side is really advancing and retreating together, then the other party has to bow his head, otherwise, the whole Hutchison will be in a mess, in the case of Hutchison is so heavily indebted, no buyer will be imprudent.

This seems to be the only way for Qi Dezun to save himself.

Prince Building, Galaxy Headquarters:

"Chen Sheng, we have acquired 2.8% of the shares in the hands of 7 shareholders in the UK, plus the acquisitions in the stock market in the past few days, we already have 40.1% of Hutchison shares, but in the secondary market, many other capital and small shareholders are hoarding a large number of Hutchison shares, and the remaining 5%, if we want to acquire, I am afraid it will cost a lot of money." In the conference room, Zhou Jiayang was reporting his recent achievements.

"The stock price has risen to 4 yuan, which is three times the amount we started when we first started the acquisition." Chen Zhiwen also knows these things, according to the current price, his goal is 45%, that is, it will cost 50 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire the last 5%, but in fact, if he enters the market, it will only cause greater speculation, and the stock price may increase several times, such as the last battle of Bao Yugang's acquisition of Wharf in history, the stock price soared directly to 105 Hong Kong dollars, and before it was generally only 20 or 30 Hong Kong dollars.

If it weren't for the dispersion of all Hutchison's shares, plus the stock has fallen into penny stocks in the past two years, Galaxy will not have the opportunity to acquire to the level of 40%, or even 25%, unless it takes a few years to slowly acquire like Wharf.

"Yes, this cost is too high, since we already have 40% of the equity, HSBC has no objection, it is completely possible to directly enter Hutchison, and then we can carry out a private placement to increase our equity, so that the cost will be reduced a lot." Zhou Jiayang suggested.

"Yes, too." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside, and An Qi walked in and said, "Chen Sheng, Mr. Shen Bi from HSBC has a call coming in. ”

"Okay, take it in." Chen Zhiwen said that because his office phone often receives advertising calls, such as buying a house and a car, many times the telecommunications personnel are asked to set up a transfer function, and the assistant will answer the phone first, and the useless ones will be directly filtered out, and the useful ones will be brought in.

"Then I'll go out first." Zhou Jiayang felt that he was not suitable to continue to stay here.

"It's okay, I guess it has something to do with Hutchison." After Chen Zhiwen signaled that he didn't need to leave, he picked up the phone and said, "Mr. Shen Bi, hello." ”

"Chen Sheng, hello." Shen Bi on the other side smiled and said: "One thing, I didn't tell you before, we at HSBC have actually held 3.58% of Hutchison's shares. ”

"Then Mr. Shen Bi means that you can resell it to me." Chen Zhiwen was overjoyed, and at this time, he called him and told him that there was no other purpose, so he said: "I am willing to buy all the Hutchison shares in HSBC at a price of 6 Hong Kong dollars per share." ”

Although it is 50% higher than the current market price, in fact, if you want to buy so many shares in the market, it will definitely be more expensive, it will take a lot of time, and most importantly, the transaction with HSBC speaks for itself.

"Yes, if you have time, you can send someone to sign the contract, and if there is no problem, you can trade on the spot." Shen Bi said.

"Okay, I'll send someone right away." Chen Zhiwen said.

After the two politely greeted each other, they hung up the phone, and Chen Zhiwen said to Zhou Jiayang: "HSBC has 3.58% of the Hutchison shares in its hands and is willing to sell it to us, you go to HSBC immediately, Angel, let the legal department prepare the contract, and then fax it to HSBC." ”

"Okay." Zhou Jiayang agreed, and said: "With HSBC shares, we only need to acquire a little more in the stock market, we can reach 45%, as long as it is announced, we can directly take over Hutchison Group." ”

"Yes, we will announce the HSBC shares as soon as they are available." Chen Zhiwen took a deep breath and said, "Shen Biken sold the stock in his hand to me, which is enough to show his attitude. ”

After staying in Hong Kong for 3 years, I finally have to use a knife against the most powerful British capital in Hong Kong, and this knife is directly a dragon slaying knife, so that the other party has no chance to resist.
