My 1979

Shen Daoru left Jinlu Company and drove to Li He's hotel. On the way, he also bought a lot of newspapers and periodicals in front of the hotel. This was also his daily task.

Li He was more interested in two reports in the newspaper. One was that Luo Xurui instigated the acquisition war for Cathay Real Estate through Baili Baodi, and the other was that Liu Daxiong and Michael Kadoorie took the lawsuit from the shareholders' meeting to the The Hong Kong Takeovers and Mergers Commission is causing uproar in the city.

When Shen Daoru saw that Li He was paying attention to the newspaper report about Liu Daxiong, he hurriedly started to introduce it.

"Liu Daxiong bought three office buildings in Causeway Bay and Wan Chai in succession. In the past few days, he has successively bought many properties such as Causeway Bay Area, Wan Chai Computer City, The Peak, and the tallest shopping mall in Hong Kong, The One. People call him 'Causeway Bay Shop' Wang'. He is good at stock market sniping. He has made trouble for Nengda Technology, Chinese Real Estate, and China Gas, and he controls five listed companies."

The so-called "stock market sniping" is a behavior that complies with the law but is hated by the controlling parties of listed companies. The usual method is: when the control of the major shareholder of a listed company is unstable and the asset value of the company is very high, first absorb a considerable amount of shares in the market, and then propose a comprehensive acquisition, forcing the other party to buy back the shares in its hands at a high price. shares, or change hands in an entire company and make a profit from it.

China Gas is the property of "fourth uncle" Li Zhaoji. Li Zhaoji was once the richest man in Asia and was known as the Asian stock god. Liu Daxiong, who was just starting out, "made a splash" by purchasing more than 8 million shares and then selling them to funds, making a profit of more than 34 million Hong Kong dollars.

"What do you think, let's get involved? Let's launch a full acquisition."

He now has nearly 500 million US dollars, which is enough for him to operate. He had reserved the funds for October, but there was not enough time now. Rather than being idle and bored, it was better to go out and get active.

Shen Daoru thought for a while and said, "A comprehensive acquisition requires about HK$5 billion in cash. Whether it is Golden Deer or Yuanda, it is impossible for the two companies to raise this huge sum of money in a short period of time."

He has long been accustomed to Li He's frequent whims. An established family like the Kadoorie cannot be easily shaken by outsiders. What's more, the Kadoorie family is the top wealthy family in Hong Kong and has great power. It is definitely not fun to mess with them.

When Li He heard the figure of five billion, he kept silent. He didn't have that much money. If he was just doing stock market sniping, no one would care about him, a nameless junior, and he wouldn't be able to bring about a herd effect at all. If you can't afford the stock price, you will end up throwing him into it.

But Liu Daxiong, who has a good reputation, is different. He is deified by stock investors, who believe that Liu can turn clouds and rain with his hands, and is omnipotent. All stocks that Liu gets involved in will definitely rise sharply. If he has money himself, and if he enlists the help of bank credit groups and funds to initiate an acquisition, he will scare old Kadoorie to the point of losing his temper. He will quickly sue for peace and buy Liu's shares at a high price, thereby extinguishing the flames of war.

Sometimes he is so arrogant that he neither sucks up stocks nor spits out stocks. He only feints a shot and meows a few times, which makes many shopping mall bosses feel as if they heard a tiger roaring. Kittens like Li He can't compete with people like Liu Daxiong, even if they have more money than him, it's useless.

“What about Cathay Real Estate?”

Li He still doesn't give up. If he doesn't do something, it would be shameful to come to Hong Kong and he would be idle.

"Mr. Li, do you really want to acquire this company, or are you just doing arbitrage?"

Shen Daoru couldn't figure out Li He's routine.

"Of course I made a fortune. Why should I keep it in my hands?"

Are you kidding? He is still worried about not having enough money. How can he acquire a listed company to occupy the funds?

Shen Daoru reminded, "Mr. Li, our current main business is real estate. It would be a good thing if we can really acquire Cathay Pacific."

"Did I ask you to find a professional? We are both laymen, and talking about these things is completely misleading."

It's really nonsense for two people to talk about these things that have no actual content.

"Then I call Huang Bingxin and ask him to come over?"

Huang Bingxin is the investment manager recruited by Shen Daoruxin, who was originally the account manager of Boston Bank.

"Then why are you standing still? Go and shout."

Shen Daoru quickly took his mobile phone downstairs to find a signal and make a call.

Ping Song was more envious of Shen Daoru's phone in his hand. Standing on the road, holding the phone while practicing his voice, not to mention how impressive he was.

"Brother, why don't we buy one back? I asked, it's only over 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, it's very cheap, and it's convenient for us to take it back to contact us. Can we buy one for each of us?"

Li He said, "You can't use it if you don't have a signal when you go back, so you're just a piece of trash."

Er Biao said, "The signals should be the same. Look, whether this radio is made by Japan or the United States, it will be used the same way when it is brought back to China."

Li He rolled his eyes at him, "Okay, then you can buy it back and try it."

He was too lazy to explain what mobile communication was, but thinking about it, the analog network should be opened next year at most, and mobile phones could be used by then. However, there was no way to realize automatic roaming of mobile phones.

Er Biao was not stupid. He knew that what Li He said was ironic, so he stopped talking.

The weather was relatively hot, so I simply took Su Ming and others downstairs to drink cold beer.

Huang Bingxin arrived relatively quickly, carrying a briefcase and sweating profusely. As soon as he entered the door, he said to Li He, "Mr. Li, are you calling me?"

He was still not used to going from being a customer to being his boss.

Li He said to Shen Daoru, "Tell him what I mean."

Shen Daoru briefly talked about Li He's thoughts, and then said, "Mr. Li wants to make a fortune in the stock market. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Huang Bingxin drank a glass of water and thought about it for a while before saying, "Both of the two mentioned are not suitable and we cannot afford to offend them. Moreover, you two have no appeal among investors at all. It is difficult to snipe. It is even more impractical to fish in troubled waters. No matter which party it is, they may not be willing to redeem the stocks in your hand. So I think Mr. Li’s current money is not suitable for doing this.”

Li He's eyes lit up, "You continue."

Professionals say it is different, and they get to the point right away.

He is not discouraged. If he can't do something, just do it. Anyway, he can't do too much and has become numb.

"I wonder if Mr. Li is interested in acquiring a bank?"

"Acquiring a bank? I have to keep the money I have for other purposes. If I don't engage in acquisitions, it will take up too much funds. But I am very interested. You can tell me. Maybe we will acquire it in the future."

"Does Mr. Li know anything about the banking industry?"

"I don't understand, just tell me."
