Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 141 Loans

   Seeing Shen Cong's reaction like this, Yang Chen couldn't help but cursed "Old Fox" in his heart.

   Up to now, he did not intend to continue to be fickle, and said bluntly to Shen Cong: "This time I came to Mr. Shen, hoping to borrow a loan of no less than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars from HSBC."

   Hearing that Yang Chen was about to borrow a huge loan of no less than 2 billion from HSBC, Shen Cong raised his eyelids and looked at Yang Chen carefully again.

   A year ago, the famous charter king acquired Wharf, but only borrowed a loan of more than 2 billion from HSBC.

   Now, Yang Chen is actually showing no signs of weakness, as soon as he opens his mouth, he needs a loan of no less than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars.

   This ambition, Shen Porridge does not know how to describe it.

   However, he held his breath, didn't interrupt Yang Chen's words, and continued to listen intently.

   And Yang Chen saw that Shen Conge didn't interrupt or reject him after hearing him say the loan amount, and he secretly praised the old man for his good work in nourishing qi.

"Of course, for this loan, I can allow HSBC to track the whole process, and all the incoming and outgoing amounts will be processed by HSBC. If HSBC thinks that I can't repay the loan, I can withdraw the loan anytime and anywhere. I will not have any Views."

   To say that Yang Chen’s move was also out of frustration. He wanted to enter the Hong Kong retail industry as soon as possible, but because of financial reasons, he had to take out a loan.

  To say that with the funds in Yang Chen's hands, he can completely support him in entering the retail industry, and he does not need a loan at all.

   But who made him a later generation, a rebirth, he clearly remembers that in the next July, the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index will reach 1810 points, breaking the highest record of the Hang Seng Index in 1973 in one fell swoop.

   At this time, the Hang Seng Index will go up all the way. If he does not use the cash in his hand to long the Hang Seng Index, he is really a fool.

   Go long at this time, and wait until the Hang Seng Index reaches its highest value in July before going short. This is simply a windfall from the sky.

   If he didn't pick it up, it would be just too much.

   Previously, after earning hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars, the reason why he did not move is to wait for the HSI to stabilize.

   Now that the Hang Seng Index has started to rise steadily, and He Chaoqiong has gathered half of the manpower he needs, now is a good time for him to enter the stock market.

   With such an opportunity to make money lying down, how could he foolishly use the money in his hand to invest in the retail industry.

   In this way, the loan has become a matter of course.

Hearing Yang Chen's loan method, Shen Cong was stunned for a moment, then after confirming that Yang Chen was not joking, he nodded and said, "Mr. Yang, if it's as you said, I can give you a definite loan here. HSBC agreed.”

   "However, because the amount is too large, I need a little time to deal with some issues."

   Seeing that Shen Porridge directly agreed to his loan, Yang Chen was not surprised.

   After all, the conditions he put forward, no matter what, HSBC will make a steady profit without losing money. If Shen Cong doesn't agree, it would be really stupid.

   In order to avoid HSBC's delay, Yang Chen thought for a while and said, "Mr. Shen, the trouble with the loan can be as fast as possible, because the day after tomorrow I will be visiting Uncle Huo's house."

   Yang Chen's subtext, Shen Cong naturally understood, and the smile on his face couldn't help but become a little stronger, "Mr. Yang, rest assured, at most three days, Mr. Yang can come to HSBC to sign a contract."

   "The loan issue has been settled. If there is anything else going on under Mr. Yang, feel free to speak up."

  Yang Chen glanced at Shen Conge, the first thing was resolved, then the second thing would not be a problem.

   So, he said bluntly: "The second thing, I have to trouble you, Mr. Shen, I heard that HSBC has many supermarkets.

   So, I would like to ask Mr. Shen for help and see if HSBC can resell these supermarkets to me. "

   "Of course, in terms of price, I will satisfy HSBC."

   Shen Conge said in his heart: ''Sure enough''.

   "Mr. Yang is not difficult. Although I am very optimistic about the retail industry, it is not the main business of the bank after all.

If Mr. Yang wants to acquire the supermarkets owned by HSBC, as long as he is willing to pay a premium of 15%, I can help convince the board of directors to resell all the more than 90 supermarkets and more than 100 retail stores under HSBC. to Mr. Yang. "

  The reason why HSBC has so many supermarkets is related to its main business.

  The main business of a bank is depositing money and lending. If you want to get a loan in a bank, you need collateral.

  The customers who take loans from HSBC every year, all kinds of collaterals, countless, many high-quality resources, HSBC will control it by itself.

   And ordinary resources, those with general profits will be resold directly.

  The retail industry, as an industry closely related to the people, is not very high-quality (compared to Hong Kong Real Estate, it is naturally insignificant), but its profitability is not bad.

   Therefore, over time, HSBC has accumulated a lot of supermarket stores.

  According to Shen Porridge's meaning, now Yang Chen only needs a 15% premium to take over dozens of supermarket stores and more than 100 retail stores owned by HSBC.

   Although these are not comparable to the Hutchison Whampoa shares that HSBC sold at a low price and gave it to the richest man Lee.

   But the fact that the other party can resell these to him when he has no foundation is considered a kind of favor.

  Yang Chen reached out and picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Shen Congee, then added it to himself, raised the glass and thanked: "So, thank you Mr. Shen."

  Shen Porridge took a sip from the teacup and said with a smile, "Now, it's time for Mr. Yang to say one last thing!"

   Thinking of the last thing, Yang Chen didn't know whether to mention it, because even if it was handed over to HSBC, it would be difficult to do.

However, having already talked about this, Yang Chen didn't intend to take it back, and said straight: "The last thing is about Li's TV station. I would like to ask HSBC to help me acquire Li's TV station, which is scattered among the major families and consortiums in Xiangjiang. stock in hand.”

   "Rei's TV Station"

  Yang Chen's thinking jumped so much, jumping from retail to media, and also interested in TV stations, Shen Cong was a little surprised.

   What surprised him even more was that the other party only asked HSBC to help acquire the shares of Li's TV station scattered on the Hong Kong side.

  Although HSBC is based in Hong Kong, it is still a British company after all, and it also has a certain influence in the UK.

   Since the other party wanted to get in on Li's TV station, instead of looking for the voice of Li, the old owner of Li's TV station, he chose to take the shares held by the big family and consortium on the side of Xiangjiang.

   This is so real, it’s puzzling.
