My 1999

Chapter 668 Acquisition Invitation

On the way back to the car.

"Mr. Xu, do we really want to acquire Hutchison Whampoa's telecom assets?" Lu Hui asked.

"I think so, but Li Jiacheng won't sell it."

"Are you so sure?"

Xu Liang smiled and did not answer.

Although Lao Li is only interested in profit, his ability, vision and determination are first-class. It ran away in time when China Real Estate was about to reach its peak, and decisively stopped when the 3G telecommunications bubble reached its peak.

Therefore, since he has identified the prospects of the 3G industry, he will not let go easily until he has harvested fruitful fruits.

Base station investment is high, but it is also a fixed asset.

So he judged that Lao Li would probably not sell it.

"Tomorrow I will tell Lao Xia that the investment department will send a negotiation team to contact Hutchison Whampoa to buy the shares of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the shares of Yangcheng Procter \u0026 Gamble."

"OK."

——

When I got home, my dad was watching TV in the living room.

"came back?"

"Where's my mother?"

"I'm staying with your wife upstairs."

Xu Liang glanced at the TV, which was playing Huang Rihua's version of "Dragon Movie".

"Dad, do you understand Cantonese?"

"I don't quite understand."

"You still read if you don't understand."

"Haha, even though I don't understand it, it's quite interesting, just like watching a sketch."

Looking at his cheerful father, Xu Liang glanced at the picture on the TV.

He really couldn't hear any similarity between Cantonese TV dramas and sketches.

But seeing how old Xu Le was enjoying it, he didn't bother him.

After changing my shoes, I turned around and went upstairs.

There was a small living room on the second floor. Qiao Yuhui and my mother didn't know what to talk about, and they were laughing happily.

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

"You said that when you were a child, you went to steal apples from the orchard and were chased by dogs all over the street." Qiao Yuhui said with a smile.

Xu Liang was confused, why did he eat melon?

"Mom, what year did this happen? Why are you mentioning it?"

"Yuhui wants to hear it, why don't you tell it?"

Yes, my daughter-in-law is the biggest.

Wang Lingxiang stood up and said, "Since you are back, let's chat with Yuhui for a while. Don't work all day long."

He quickly agreed.

After watching my mother turn around and go downstairs, she came and sat down next to Qiao Yuhui.

"how do you feel today?"

"It's good to be able to eat and sleep. It's just that I'm a little tired with these two little guys."

After a pause, Qiao Yuhui turned her head, praying on her beautiful face.

"husband?"

"What's wrong?"

"I want to eat fried chicken legs."

"No, the doctor has asked you to control your sugar. If you eat a fried chicken leg, your blood sugar will definitely rise to above 6."

"But am I greedy?"

Seeing her begging, Xu Liang had a headache.

If the diet has been controlled for a long time, sudden outbreaks will be particularly intense.

"It's too late today. Tomorrow, tomorrow I will secretly bring you one."

Qiao Yuhui hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"You promised tomorrow, you can't lie to me."

"I'm definitely not lying to you."

In order to divert her attention from the chicken legs, Xu Liang quickly changed the topic to today's meeting.

After chatting for more than half an hour, she started to feel sleepy.

Xu Liang helped him up and slowly took him to the bedroom.

After coaxing her and putting her to sleep, Xu Liangcai came downstairs, said hello to his parents, chatted briefly for a while, and then walked into the study.

Start working on today’s accumulated work.

There are not many decisions that require him to make decisions, they are basically some details of the development of his companies.

Only by understanding these can we understand the detailed development status of each company and formulate reasonable development strategies.

——

Looking at the documents in front of him, Zhou Wenyao looked ugly.

boom!

He slammed the table and said furiously.

"What's going on? For two whole days, you Gao actually told me that you didn't buy a single share from the market?! What do you, the CFO, do for a living?"

Chen Yijun was also aggrieved.

She has adjusted the purchase price to HK$14 in accordance with the group's requirements, but there is always someone higher than her.

"Chairman Li, Mr. Zhou, there are big tycoons in the market who are buying stocks at a higher price than us. Unless we raise the purchase price, we won't be able to buy the stock at all."

"Money, money, money, you know you need money. If everything needs money to solve, why should I pay a high salary to hire you as the company's CFO?" Zhou Wenyao said angrily.

Chen Yijun, who was being sprayed again, was also angry. Although her position was one level lower than Zhou Wenyao, she was still the third-in-command of the company.

And she is also an executive director on the company's board of directors.

To sum it up, I also have a temper.

"My surname is Zhou. My position was appointed by the Finance Department and the Board of Directors, not you! Also, if you have the ability, go buy it in the market yourself. Don't show off your authority here."

After scoffing, Chen Yijun sarcastically said without mercy.

"I've been fooled around by others. I spend money to argue in newspapers every day. Now you know you're anxious?"

"you……."

"What are you doing? What did I say wrong? If you don't have the ability, just give up as soon as possible and stop occupying the latrine."

"I……."

"What am I? A toad doesn't even look at his identity when he looks in the mirror. He still wants to fight with the richest man in the world. Are you worthy?"

Zhou Wenyao was so angry that he trembled all over and pointed at the arrogant and domineering woman in front of him.

"Damn it, I...I will definitely let the company fire you!"

"You'd better worry about yourself, Pengjie."

Chen Yijun turned around gracefully, opened the office door, and the secretary with the information in his hand quickly hid aside.

After looking at her, Chen Yijun turned and left.

The little secretary breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the office.

Looking at the angry BOSS, whose face was livid, his tone was trembling.

"Mr. Zhou, we have just received a report from Hongmaple Fund (a shell company of Hongyan). They have acquired 33.8% of the company's equity, and they have applied to officially convene an extraordinary shareholders' meeting in three days."

Zhou Wenyao's face turned from green to white, "What did you say?"

The little secretary swallowed and quickly handed over the document in his hand.

Looking at the clear traditional Chinese characters on it, Zhou Wenyao's face was full of disbelief.

"How is that possible? How could they have so many shares?!"

Xiangjiang's securities law was born out of the United Kingdom, so it also requires individuals or companies to submit an investment report to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the board of directors of the listed company within 15 days after holding 5% of the equity of a listed company.

Indicate the identity, occupation, industry, source of funds and purpose of acquisition of the acquirer.

If the purpose of acquiring shares is to obtain control of the target company, the acquirer must disclose its business plan to the target company.

Is it a purely financial investment or a real acquisition?

This share of Red Maple Fund is obviously an acquisition.

And the price given was very high, 19 Hong Kong dollars per share, nearly double what it was at the beginning.

During the 20-day acquisition period, any holders and institutions holding shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange can sell their shares at this price. As an acquirer, Red Maple Fund cannot refuse.

If a company making a takeover bid believes that there is a better chance of acquiring the shares it needs, the bid period can be extended by another 20 days.

Of course, rules are rules. Given the complexity of investment, few companies can acquire more than 10% of the equity of a listed company within 15 days.

Doing so will greatly increase the cost of acquisition.

Unless they have deep pockets or are determined to win a certain company, few institutions would make this choice.

Xu Liang obviously has both.

Jingle Bell…….

The phone on the table rang.

He took a deep breath to calm down and then picked up.

"Is it me, in the company?"

"exist."

"Xu Liang officially submitted an offer to acquire the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to the Hong Kong Securities and Exchange Commission. Did you know?"

"I just received it."

"Do you have any idea?"

"I……."

Zhou Wenyao was speechless for a moment.

What ideas could he have? What else can he think of? He is also desperate.

You can't compete with money, and you can't compete with resources.

I thought that with my many years of experience and connections in the business world, I would be able to stop Xu Liang, a young man.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, he would be manipulated by someone who was building a plank road openly and secretly trying to trick Chen Cang.

The 33.8% stake directly eliminates the possibility of a poison pill plan.

After repeated blows, his mind was now in chaos and he had no idea at all.

"Hey, Brother Wen Yao, I have prepared a letter of resignation. You can take care of yourself."

Snapped!

The phone hangs up.

Listening to the blind tone, Zhou Wenyao seemed to have regained some sanity in his mind. He quickly took out his mobile phone and found the phone number he had kept before calling.

"Secretary Lu, I am Zhou Wenyao. I hope to pay a visit to Xu Sheng..."

——

The report of Red Maple Fund’s acquisition of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange caused a sensation throughout Hong Kong.

At first most people didn't know what it was.

But the news didn't last long before Boss Xu who was hiding behind the scenes was dug out.

Soon, some smart people guessed his plan to cover up the truth, openly hype his new stock exchange, suppress the stock price of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and secretly acquire equity shares secretly.

The news spread, giving Boss Xu a new aura of resourcefulness.

"Xu Sheng, you have impressed many people this time."

Listening to the voice on the phone, Xu Liang smiled and said: "Fourth uncle, my little tricks are just leftovers from your old days, and I don't deserve your praise."

"There is no big or small means, as long as they work."

"That's what you said. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange will need more support from my fourth uncle in the future."

"Haha, you're welcome. It's me who needs your support."

Dong Dong…….

There was a knock on the door.

"Fourth Uncle, I have something to do here, so I'll hang up now. I'll treat you to dinner after I finish this period of work."

"Okay, I'm waiting for your call."

After a few polite words, Xu Liang hung up the phone.

"Come in."

Lu Hui opened the door and walked in.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr. Xu, I just received a call from Mr. Xia. The negotiation with Hutchison Whampoa has ended. We will acquire 20% of the equity of Yangcheng Procter \u0026 Gamble held by the other party for HK$13.9 billion."

The price was a bit higher than expected, but it was almost impossible to get a bargain from Lao Li.

"Tell Lao Xia to sign the contract as soon as possible."

"OK."

“Where are the shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange?”

"According to the public price of HK$19 per share we currently submit, 4.87% of the equity requires a payment of HK$985 million."
