Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 787

After instructing He Hongtao and others to continue buying stocks, Zheng Hiquan left the trading room and walked all the way into the general manager's office of Hang Seng Bank.

   In the general manager's office, Li Guowei was talking to someone on the phone. Hearing that someone came in without knocking on the door, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

   However, Li Guowei's expression soon changed.

   said that Cao Cao Cao Cao will arrive

   "Manager Zheng, you came just in time. The Taikoo Group just called and said that they agreed to reduce the price by 30% and sell the 5% of the Landmark shares they hold to us."

   Zheng Hiquan did not speak after hearing this, but handed the purchase order to Li Guowei.

   "Press?" Li Guowei gave Zheng Hiquan a puzzled look, reached out to take the purchase order handed over, glanced at it, and was immediately stunned.

   Zheng Hiquan smiled and said, "Mr. Li, Landmark has been won. Please give the boss a call."

   It stands to reason that he Zheng Hiquan can do this kind of good news by himself, and there is no need to give credit to the other party.

   However, Zheng Haiquan has his own ideas.

   Earlier, when he left HSBC and was arranged by Yang Chen to join Hang Seng, he promised him that he would take the position of general manager of Hang Seng Bank soon.

  If Hang Seng Bank maintains the status quo and Li Guowei exists, it will undoubtedly be very difficult for him to take the position of general manager of Hang Seng Bank.

   After all, Li Guowei's qualifications are too high. Apart from the founders of Hang Seng, the other party is the only veteran figure of Hang Seng Bank who can rank with the founders.

   Such a veteran-level figure, as long as there are no major problems, and the other party does not voluntarily step back, it is difficult for others to shake his position.

   With the acquisition of Hang Seng Bank by Yang Chen, Hang Seng has gradually transformed from a local bank in Hong Kong into an international bank with a global nature.

   This transformation has made Boss Yang’s influence within Hang Seng Bank more and more influential, and at the same time, it has also enabled the middle and low-level employees of Hang Seng Bank to gradually get rid of the influence of several founders and begin to realize who they work for and who they rely on for food.

   This kind of change is changing with each passing day, and many senior executives of Hang Seng Bank have gradually felt it.

  Hang Seng Bank has changed, and it will inevitably undergo a series of internal changes, personnel adjustments and so on.

   At that time, Li Guowei, as the general manager of Hang Seng Bank, is the third person in real life. In this case, he has not made major mistakes, and his ability is not weak. Even if he is not promoted, he will not be downgraded.

   Therefore, he doesn't want to have too much quarrel with Li Guowei, but it's not necessary. Even if he can't be the general manager, he can be the vice president.

   After all, the current Hang Seng Bank is no longer the same as the previous Hang Seng Bank.

  Li Guowei still couldn't believe it after reading it, and couldn't help but ask, "Manager Zheng, is this true?"

Li Guowei regretted it as soon as he said the words, because he felt that he was asking too much. No one would be able to joke about this kind of thing at this time.

   Asking yourself like that, doesn't it make it clear that you don't trust the other party?

Just when Li Guowei was about to explain, Zheng Hiquan finally spoke up, only to see Zheng Hiquan's face froze for three seconds, then quickly returned to normal, and said calmly: "I don't dare to joke about this kind of thing, Mr. Li If you don't believe it, you can go to the trading room and ask Lao He and the others in person."

  Li Guowei looked embarrassed, "Don't get me wrong, Manager Zheng, that's not what I meant."

   Zheng Hiquan waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know what you mean, Mr. Li, but now we should tell the boss the good news as soon as possible. Now that we have won the land, we need the boss to come over and preside over the overall situation as soon as possible."

   "Press, I'll call the boss right now." With that, Li Guowei picked up the phone on the side and pressed the button halfway. Li Guowei suddenly stopped, "Manager Zheng, what about the Taikoo Group?"

   Zheng Hiquan heard the words, without thinking about it, he said directly: "Wait for the boss to come back, let the boss make his own decision."

   Now that Landmark has been acquired, the 5% stake in Landmark held by Swire Group is no longer so important.

   Without them buying Jardine, the stock price of Hongkong Land will inevitably fall. Swire Group is a step behind, and it deserves bad luck. He has no interest in taking care of it, let alone worrying about it.

   Leave everything to Boss Yang to solve, anyway, in his opinion, this kind of thing should give Boss Yang a headache.

  Li Guowei nodded subconsciously, thinking that Zheng Hiquan's attention was good, the Taikoo Group just called, I'm afraid it has already got the news.

Not to be missed.

   Taikoo Group was hesitant before and did not seize the opportunity, who is to blame?

   When Li Guowei announced the good news to Boss Yang, there was also new news from Jardine.

Simon Keswick, who had just returned from Thailand, heard that Landmark had been lost. For a while, it was as if he had eaten a fly. His face was ugly. He never thought that after discussing with Yang Chen on his front foot, his back foot would be on his side. Follow the chain.

   Without any rest, Simon Keswick convened the board of directors for the first time.

Since Landmark has been lost, he doesn't expect Yang Chen to admit the promise that the two of them had negotiated before. Although he only had a relationship with Yang Chen, it was very clear that he wanted the other party to spit out the fat he had eaten in his mouth. , is absolutely impossible.

  In this case, New Bijian, the man who takes the blame, has completed his mission and should resign and retire.

   seems to have accepted his destiny. On the board of directors, Niu Bijian did not have any dissatisfaction, made a brief resignation speech, and took the initiative to take all positions in the Jardine Group.

  The Jardine Group has been developing in Xiangjiang for so many years. With its profound background, motorcycles have not had too many problems for decades.

   However, after Newbican became the chairman of the board of directors, although Jardine expanded faster than before, all of this was based on the premise of Jardine's huge debt.

   Niubijian Shiling Jardine took on a lot of debt, and then lost the battle with the charter king for the Wharf, and now even the Landmark has been lost.

   Even without Simon Keswick, New Bijian was embarrassed to continue serving as the chairman of Jardine's board of directors, and it was only a matter of time before he resigned.

   Now Simon Keswick thinks that he is useless, and he no longer needs him to continue to hold the position of the chairman of the board of directors of Jardine and take the blame. In order to retain his last dignity, he can only choose to resign.

   Niu Bijian's resignation did not create any turbulence. The Yi Group lost too hard this time, and everyone was more or less dissatisfied with Niu Bijian, the chairman of the board of directors.

   As for whether it was because of Carian's involvement that led to the current ending, everyone tacitly agreed without reminding.

  The so-called people take tea to cool, nothing more.
