Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 905 Didn't catch a single fish

   Back to the pier

   Yang Chen separated from Lin Qingxia and Deng Lijun.

   went out to sea to catch fish for an afternoon, whether it was a big fish or a small fish, Yang Chen and Shen Porridge didn't catch a single one.

   However, this did not affect his mood.

Because he finally got the answer he wanted from Shen Conge, just as Yang Chen thought, the rise of the Yang Consortium is already unstoppable. Compared with the Yang Consortium, HSBC is just a simple financial institution, and it will die in the future. trillion Hong Kong dollar market value.

  Even if HSBC will become a big international financial bank in the future, with huge influence, but so what?

  Compared with real consortiums and chaebols, pure financial opportunities are just ATMs for bigwigs, use them when you need them, and don’t use them when you don’t need them.

  Unless you can control the currency in circulation of a big country like the Federal Reserve and several major inland state-owned banks, even if the financial turmoil can't do anything to them, then it will be really awesome.

  Xiangjiang is too small. Once the influence of Xiangjiang declines that day, HSBC will also be affected.

  Shen Porridge has been sitting in the position of the HSBC Taipan King for so long, which is comparable to the power of the Governor, not to say that he can let go.

The so-called    is not in his position, and he does not seek his government.

   The same reason, without that position, he Shen Porridge is no longer the uncrowned governor, people take tea to cool, understand the Shen Porridge of Huaxia Wenhua, and know this very well.

   Therefore, whether it was because he was really optimistic about Yang Chen, or in order to leave a way out for himself, Shen Conge didn't reject Yang Chen's invitation like he had rejected others before.

  If Yang Chen was only the richest man in China, Shen Conge would definitely not think about it, because if Yang Chen didn't show up, he could have cultivated a richest man in China, and Li Chaoren would be an example.

   However, now Yang Chen is not only the richest man in China, but also the richest man in Asia. He may even become the richest person in the world and take the position of the richest man in the world soon.

   With the coming of the Plaza Accord, Shen Conge, the HSBC tycoon king, also obtained some inside information through his own channels.

However, before the agreement was signed, no one could guarantee that the situation would reverse. After all, the island country's economic strength is now very strong, and the island country's geographical location is very special. The United States needs to involve China and the Soviet Union through the island country. Obviously It is impossible to really treat the island nation as such.

  If the island country government disagrees, other countries will have no choice but to try again through other channels.

  What financial institutions need is stable development, not risky speculation. Even if it is clear that the Japanese currency may appreciate, but before the agreement is signed, large financial institutions such as HSBC generally do not sell in advance.

  If the yen is going to appreciate, then after the agreement is signed, with its own advantages, a large financial institution like HSBC can take a piece of the pie without any risk.

   You can get huge profits without taking any risks, so what’s the hurry? No need to worry at all!

   Therefore, Shen Porridge doesn't envy Yang Chen's future earnings from the island country. What he mainly admires is Yang Chen's foresight, and he was able to see the room for appreciation of the yen two years in advance.

   This made Shen Porridge very admired.

   Back to his home office

   The first thing Shen Porridge did was to call Dong Jianhua.

   As OOCL's largest creditor, OOCL's next actions cannot avoid HSBC no matter what.

   The interest of several hundred million every year, HSBC can't give up no matter what, it has now been confirmed that Yang Chen will inject capital into OOCL, and the cooperation between HSBC and OOCL, of course, needs to continue.

  dong dong—

   Just when Shen Conge was about to get off work

   Dong Jianhua finally arrived

   "Mr. Shen"

   "Dong Sheng, you've come, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

   "Sorry, Mr. Shen, there is a traffic jam on the road."

   "It's fine, but it's time to get off work now. If Dong Sheng is not busy, let's go out and find a place to chat. What do you think?"

   "Mandarin Oriental has invited several chefs from inland recently. I heard that my ancestor is the royal chef of the palace. I would like to invite Mr. Shen to taste it."

  The two walked out of the office while chatting.

   said hello to the secretary, and Shen Cong and Dong Jianhua left the Chinese line one after the other.

  In this era, British-owned foreign banks like HSBC have strict regulations on business hours. Like inland state-owned banks, they basically close their doors as soon as the time arrives.

  Closed on Saturdays and Sundays, the so-called 24-hour service can only be seen in later generations. In this era, don’t even think about it. If the service attitude is better, it is not bad.

   Of course, in order to increase the deposit limit, there are also Chinese-funded banks to attract depositors by improving the quality of service.

   However, the Chinese Bank has a fatal flaw, that is, its lack of information. Whether Xiangjiang is before or after the return, it is better after the return. Its financial industry has always been unstable.

   Therefore, general big savers and elite savers tend to store their money in HSBC and Standard Chartered, two British-owned foreign firms that have the power to issue banknotes.

   Ordinary employees work from 9 to 5, and it is no problem to commute to and from get off work normally, but porridge is not good. As the leader of HSBC Bank, even during the rest time, he has to talk to people about business.

   "Today I went out to sea with Yang Sheng to fish for an afternoon."

   "Guess what?"

  In the car, Shen Conge and Dong Jianhua chatted about going fishing with Yang Chen in the afternoon,

   "What's the result?" Dong Jianhua asked very cooperatively.

   "I didn't catch a single fish," Shen Cong couldn't help laughing.

  "Er" Dong Jianhua was stunned when he heard the words, and then he laughed. He didn't expect the result to be like this, but seeing Shen Porridge's expression, although the fish hadn't been caught, things should be discussed well.

   The big guys got together and said that they were going out to eat, drink, fish, etc. That was all fake. You really thought you were just going to play.

   "Yang Sheng has already told me about OOCL."

   "I have already asked someone to deal with the OOCL shares mortgaged by the Dong family. The debt will be guaranteed by Hang Seng Bank. HSBC will continue to support Mr. Dong in the future. I hope we can continue to cooperate happily."

   Dong Jianhua quickly thanked him when he heard this: "Thank you, Mr. Shen."

The Dong family is the largest private shareholder of OOIL. The 10-billion-plus loan from HSBC is not the face of the old ship king Dong, but the real OOCL shares held by the Dong family, as well as some family properties. .

   HSBC, as OOCL's largest creditor, if HSBC didn't raise its hands, Dong Jianhua wouldn't be able to sell his shares to Yang Chen.

   Now that there is a guarantee from Hang Seng Bank, although HSBC is still the largest creditor of OOCL, it can no longer control the life and death of the Dong family at any time like before.

   The feeling of being pinched on the neck is very uncomfortable.

   Until now, Dong Jianhua didn't feel the pressure on himself, and he felt a little more relaxed. He didn't have to be as unsure as before.
