My 1999

Feeling the gazes around him that contained various emotions, Li Yeguang could still hold his nerve, but Zhou Wenyao's face had darkened.

No one wants an outsider to judge their own affairs, even if the other party has an extraordinary status, even if there is deep cooperation between the two parties.

What's more, Xu Liang's intention to announce this to so many people was obvious.

This makes people even more angry.

Feeling the almost frozen atmosphere around him, Xu Liang said calmly: "Mr. Li, Mr. Zhou, don't you want to say a few words?"

Before Li Yeguang opened his mouth, Zhou Wenyao had already said.

"Mr. Xu, the system of the HKEx Group is the summary of experience after years of development and is in line with the current status of Hong Kong and international economic development.

The policy you just mentioned to allow companies with dual-class share structures to be listed and to allow biotech companies that have not yet made profits to list in Hong Kong is too risky. For the sake of shareholders, it is difficult for us to pass it. "

Xu Liang nodded and turned his eyes.

"Mr. Li, do you think so too?"

Feeling the deep look in his eyes, Li Yeguang instantly felt a strong pressure and said quickly.

"Xu Sheng, this matter is too big. We need to go back and discuss it carefully."

Zhou Wenyao was about to continue, but had to stop after being pulled by Li Yeguang's hand.

Xu Liang saw it and smiled: "Then I'm waiting for good news from you two."

The conversation changed.

"Everyone, the weather is nice today. It's rare for us to get together. Why don't we play a few shots together?"

"Since Xu Sheng is so elegant, of course we will accompany him."

"Xu Sheng, we are all old men, you have to be merciful later."...

Talking and laughing broke the previous solemnity, but the impact of Xu Liang's words remained in everyone's hearts.

After playing a few rounds of golf and having lunch, we each left.

On the way back to the car.

Zhou Wenyao said angrily: "Who does he think he is? Why is an upstart mainlander giving orders to us?!"

"Wen Yao, you are too reckless.

Xu Liang is not only the third richest man in the world, but also the boss of Hanhua. More than half of the rich people in Hong Kong are investors in Hanhua. As long as he is willing, all the rich people will sell his face to put pressure on us... "

"So what? So what if the rich put pressure on me? I'm not afraid even if the four major families take action together."

When it comes to the latter part, I feel somewhat lacking in confidence.

He is not afraid of Xu Liang because he is a foreigner. Although he is rich, he has no foundation in Xiangjiang.

But the four major families are different. They have been rooted in Xiangjiang for half a century, and their network of relationships is intricate.

Li Yeguang said after looking at the tough-talking old man.

"Actually, we don't need to worry too much. The wealthy families in Xiangjiang may not be willing to accept a strong outsider. And even if they greet us because of Hanhua's investment, it is only superficial and will not really kill them."

Zhou Wenyao breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"That's what I think too. A stinky mainland boy, really thinks he can stir up trouble in Hong Kong with just two dollars?"

Li Yeguang glanced at him and swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Xu Liang is not an ordinary rich man, he is the third richest man in the world.

If he really makes up his mind, the wealthy people in Xiangjiang will definitely help. After all, Hanhua’s rate of return is so good that no one is willing to give up.

——

"Xu Sheng, you are a little anxious this time. Zhou Wenyao is a face-saving person. If you guard so many people and force him, you will only make things self-defeating."

"Fourth uncle, you are right, I should be polite first and then fight. This time I was a little anxious." Xu Liang said with a smile.

Li Zhaoji glanced at him and said, "How about I help you make an appointment with Zhou Wenyao and Li Yeguang, and you can talk in private?"

"Thank you, Fourth Uncle, for your kindness, but I won't need it for the time being."

Li Zhaoji was slightly startled, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

"Forget it. But if you need help, call me anytime."

"must."

"Then I'll leave first."

"Uncle Fourth, walk slowly."

Watching the car go away, everyone saw them off.

"Are the materials ready?"

"Ready." Lu Hui said.

"Send it to the Financial Secretary in three days. Also, tell Lao Xia that you can take action."

"yes."

——

"Dad, it seems that after Xu Liang became the third richest man in the world, he became more and more domineering. He directly dragged us to put pressure on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Haha, do you really think that having money can solve everything? You are so self-righteous."

Li Zekai laughed wildly.

In recent times, although the Li family has earned huge returns from Hanhua.

But there is also a lot of competition between the two sides.

Especially in the past two years, New Century Real Estate and Taihua Real Estate have been crazy about acquiring land in the mainland, and many of their promising land plots have been snatched away by each other.

"Zeju, what do you think?"

Li Jiacheng turned to his eldest son.

"Dad, I don't think Xu Liang is the kind of person who is domineering after some achievements, otherwise he would never be able to reach his current status."

Li Zekai didn't want to see his eldest brother being more beautiful than before.

"Dad, when Wang Mang was still humble, Xu Liang used to be humble and cautious because he had not reached a high enough position.

Now as the third richest man in the world, he is already at the top of the world. Isn't it natural that he has fulfilled his ideals and begun to release his true nature? "

Li Jiacheng didn't express his position and pondered for a while.

"Zeju, please call Li Yeguang and Zhou Wenyao in my name and mention what happened today, but don't reveal our attitude easily."

"OK."

"We will wait and see what happens in this matter. Without my instructions, none of you can speak out, especially you, Zekai."

Seeing his father's stern eyes, Li Zekai nodded quickly and agreed.

He waved his hand.

Li Zeju and Li Zekai turned and left.

Quietness returned to the large study room.

Li Jiacheng stared into the distance and could vaguely see the shadow of the Tianbi Gao mansion. He knew that this mansion had been bought by Xu Liang.

"Is it really that simple?"

——

"The richest man's attack: Hong Kong Exchange needs reform." - "Apple Daily"

"Allow dual-class share structures and non-profit biotech companies to go public." - "Ming Pao"

"If the Hong Kong Stock Exchange does not reform, I will reform the Hong Kong Stock Exchange." - "Sina News".

On the second day of the gathering, reports about Xu Liang’s pressure to reform the Hong Kong Stock Exchange were rampant.

Regarding Xu Liang, the newly ranked third richest man in the world, the entire business and public opinion circles in Xiangjiang have been stirred up, and it has even affected surrounding areas.

"Boni, what do you mean, Boss Xu? Let us abandon the dual-class share structure, and now you are calling on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to allow companies with dual-class share structures to be listed?"

Zeng Liqing held a copy of "Xiangjiang Commercial Daily" in his hand.

"Penguin's dual-class share structure puts the power of the company in our hands, and Boss Xu is certainly not willing to accept it. Let Xiangjiang agree to the dual-class share structure, of course, in order to maintain his control over Hongmeng, New Dream and other companies."

"What do you mean, Hongmeng is going to be listed?"

"Definitely, otherwise why would he be in charge of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange?"

"Right."

"How is the development of the Japanese and Korean versions of QQ going?"

"The development team has been established and the first version can be launched in a month at most."

Bonima nodded.

When we last met in Xiangjiang, Xu Liang's most determined request was that they must develop an international version of QQ.

They are not required to enter Europe and the United States, but they must develop Japanese, Korean and Southeast Asian versions.

Bonima was originally very opposed to it because the risks in foreign markets were too great.

But Xu Liang only agreed after he promised to use Hongmeng's resources to help.

"Let the HR department start looking for suitable professional managers. Once the version is developed, we can launch it on the market as quickly as possible."

Because of Hongmeng’s success, he also agrees with the other party’s localization strategy.

"OK."

Zeng Liqing handed over two documents, which were the personnel information of the "QQ Speed" and "Zhengtu" game development teams.

He took it, flipped it over briefly, and nodded.

"No problem, just them."

——

Qiao Yu would put down the newspaper in her hand and look suspiciously at the man beside her who was peeling an apple for herself.

"This is not your style? What do you think? As soon as you come up, you give people power!"

"ah……."

Xu Liang cut off a piece of apple and handed it over.

"Hurry up and tell me, if you don't figure it out, how can I be interested in eating apples?"

Xu Liang smiled and said, "Do you think Zhou Wenyao will agree to the reform if I treat him with courtesy first and then attack with force?"

Qiao Yu would hesitate.

There is a high probability that it will not happen. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange has developed inertia after decades of development. Without strong external pressure, it is difficult for endogenous reforms to occur.

In the previous life, it was not until 2018 that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange allowed dual-class companies and non-profit biotechnology companies to be listed.

"It seems that the answer in your heart is no."

"Didn't you contact the wealthy circles in Xiangjiang? With Hanhua's connections, they should support you."

“Of course they will be supportive, but superficial support is support.

There's no way I'm going to risk quarrels by forcing people to help. Doing so would be counterproductive. "

"Then you are now...?"

"Building plank roads openly and secretly visiting Chen Cang."

Looking at his meaningful look, Qiao Yu would suddenly understand.

"Equity."

"Children can be taught."

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange has been listed in 2000, with a current market capitalization of HK$9.6 billion.

55% of the shares are in public hands.

Institutional investors hold 39% of the shares, the Hong Kong government holds 5.9%, BlackRock holds 4.64%, State Street Global holds 3.04%, Vanguard Group holds 3.02%, and Capital Research and Management holds 2.98%. %.

The diversified investment gave Xu Liang a lot of room for maneuver.

Jingle Bell…….

The cell phone rang.

Xu Liang handed the apple to Qiao Yuhui, wiped his hands and picked it up.

"Boss, 4.9% of the shares of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange have been acquired." Lu Hui said.

"I understand, let's continue with the second step of the plan."

"OK."

Xu Liang hung up the phone.

"Second step plan?" Qiao Yuhui asked curiously.

"I have already applied to the Hong Kong government to establish a stock exchange similar to Nasdaq in Hong Kong."

"Are you serious?"

"Of course it's fake, but the process will definitely go through. Only in this way will the stock price of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange be suppressed, making it easier for me to acquire it."

"Are you sure it works?" Qiao Yuhui asked.

"Without the endorsement of Forbes, the effect will definitely not be ideal. Now, I am the third richest person in the world, with a net worth of US$38.9 billion. In a money-oriented society like Hong Kong, who would despise my words?

Moreover, I did not attend the gathering that day just to give Li Yeguang and Zhou Wenyao a show of strength and divert attention.

Also to show off your connections.

Let them, and those who know about it, really believe in my ability to re-establish a stock exchange. "

Looking at the mature and confident person in front of him, who has everything under control, Qiao Yuhui, as a career-oriented woman, just feels so handsome.
