Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

After Xia Yu's order, Wang Qi immediately took action and began to integrate the relevant business information of the Kadoorie family. At the same time, he held Xia Yu's order to integrate the shares of the companies involved in the Kadoorie family within the Jiuding consortium.

Jiuding Bank, Jiuding Securities Company, Jiuding Insurance Company, etc. under Jiuding Financial Group have strong financial strength, and all have launched investment business, and stock investment is the most common one.

Not to mention that Chairman Xia Yu has pointed out that Hong Kong stocks have been bull markets in recent years, and you can invest in the stock market with confidence.

Therefore, these companies have successively swept the stock market, but all blue-chip stocks are not spared, and the stocks they hold are numerous and miscellaneous.

Among them are the equity interests of two listed companies in which the Kadoorie family is involved.

They are Xiangjiang Shanghu Hotel Group and China Electric Power Co., Ltd.

As for Xiangjiang Carpet Co., Ltd., another pillar established by the Kadoorie family in 1961, and other companies in the real estate, construction, dyeing and printing industries, they have not yet been listed, and basically the Kadoorie family holds more than 50% of the shares. It is even wholly-owned, so it cannot be controlled at all.

Of course, some listed companies with a small amount of financial investment by Kadoorie \u0026 Sons Investment Co., Ltd. are another matter. They cannot be regarded as the properties of the Kadoorie family, so they are not considered.

...

"Norman, you've been back in England for two months, and I haven't seen you in a long time. It's been great to see you!"

When he came to the Shi Yahuai family mansion in Taiping Mountain, Lawrence Kadoorie met the head of the Taikoo Consortium, who was more than ten years younger than him, and greeted him warmly.

Norman Shiya smiled and his attitude was equally enthusiastic: "Yeah, long time no see, Lawrence, put things here, please take a seat!"

"thanks!"

"Is it still black coffee? Are you sure you don't add milk?"

"Of course, you know me, I like the bitter taste of black coffee, just like the taste of life."

"OK, unique taste, please wait..."

Soon, the two drank coffee and chatted.

"Laurence, why are you free to come to me today?"

Taking a sip of coffee,

Norman Shi Yahuai asked with a smile.

Foreigners speak quite directly, not as reserved as Chinese, and like to go around in circles.

If the opposite is a Chinese rich man, Norman Shi Yahuai will definitely not speak in advance, but since it is a friend and ally Lawrence Kadoorie, it is naturally another matter.

Hearing Norman Shi Yahuai's question, Lawrence Kadoorie swallowed the black coffee in his mouth, with a bitter expression on his face, he sighed unabashedly, looked at Norman Shi Yahuai and said, "Norman, I am here. The second time I came to you for help, I encountered a super big trouble."

Norman Shi Yahuai frowned, sat up straight and asked: "Roland, your family's strength can be ranked in dozens of places in the whole Xiangjiang, why are you in trouble?"

Just after finishing speaking, a flash of light flashed in Norman Shi Yahuai's mind, and he blurted out and asked, "Could it be Xia Yu?"

Lawrence Kadoorie was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Norman Shi Yahuai to guess it so quickly. He didn't bother to ask him how he guessed it. He nodded slightly and said, "Yes, he came to me, no, exactly. It's to trouble us."

"Before I came, Wang Qi from Jiuding Securities came to me and wanted to buy all the shares I held in Hong Kong Telephone Company, and the purchase price was down to 17 Hong Kong dollars per share. It was bullying!"

"Seventeen Hong Kong dollars per share?"

Norman Shi Yahuai frowned, staring at Lawrence Kadoorie and asked again.

The latter nodded to show that he was right, and said flickeringly: "I don't want to sell at all, and we are allies. The Hong Kong Telephone Company is now controlled by the Taikoo Group. Of course, I can't stab you in the back, so I directly refused. ."

"Before I left, Wang Qi used threats and asked me to think about it for two more days. Where would I think about it? No, I came directly to you."

"By the way, I have learned about the share price of Hong Kong Telephone Company before I came here. Now it has dropped to HK$15.8 per share, which has dropped by nearly HK$20 in just a few days."

"shut!"

Hearing this, Norman Shi Yahuai was over sixty years old, and he still couldn't help but utter foul language.

This is totally calamity from heaven!

He was originally annoyed by the fact that the Hong Kong Telephone Company was deeply involved in the public opinion turmoil in the past few days. Yesterday, he even went to the Hong Kong Governor's Office to explain to MacLehose.

At the same time, it has to endure the pain of the plummeting share price of Hong Kong Telephone Company.

Who knows now that Lawrence Kadoorie has brought another bad news, Xia Yu actually moved his mind to the Xiangjiang Telephone Company.

As the largest shareholder of Heung Kong Telephone Company, Swire Group holds 24.5% of the shares.

Just like what Lawrence Kadoorie had considered, even though the stock price of Hong Kong Telephone Company plummeted, Norman Shi Yahuai was in no hurry and never thought of selling the stock.

After all, after the Jardine Consortium was dismembered and eliminated, excluding HSBC, the Swire Group is now the No. 1 British-owned consortium in Hong Kong.

Relaxing all restrictions, only HSBC and Jiuding Consortium will be weighed down on Swire Group.

Therefore, no matter how the stock price of Heung Kong Telephone Company falls, it is difficult to have any impact on the Swire Group. Swire Group has the capital to wait and spend time to wear off the impact, so that the stock price of Heung Kong Telephone Company can rise again.

When Xia Yu said through Jiuding Securities Company that he wanted to recover his losses, Norman Shi Yahuai had some guesses, but he was not sure where to start. Now he knows that the target is not Dadong Telegraph Bureau Xiangjiang Co., Ltd., but Xiangjiang Telephone. The company, he was in a completely out of breath mood.

It is a complete trouble to have a conflict with the Jiuding Consortium.

"Norman, what are you going to do about it?"

Seeing that Norman Shi Yahuai's complexion stopped changing, Lawrence Kadoorie immediately asked aloud, looking closely at the former.

Norman Shi Yahuai sighed and said helplessly, "Roland, do you think we can retreat?"

Lawrence Kadoorie immediately shook his head: "No!"

Norman Shi Yahuai nodded and seemed to say to himself: "Yes, no, the Jardine Consortium has been completely dismembered, and now it has completely disappeared in Xiangjiang. In more than a year, the Jiuding Consortium has also digested the money from the Jardine Consortium. acquired company.”

"Because of the Jiuding Consortium, in the past two years, the strength of the Chinese-funded consortium has increased significantly."

"Now, secretly and openly, I don't know how many people are staring at us. As long as we show fatigue, it is easy to be troubled."

Hearing this, Lawrence Kadoorie felt the same way and said, "It's all to blame for the Jiuding Consortium for opening this Pandora's Box. The Chinese capital has become much more courageous, and they have formed an alliance with each other. The pressure is increasing day by day!"

Of course, if it weren't for this reason, the British-funded consortium and family that were fighting each other would not have joined together, and secretly formed the Hong Kong British-funded Alliance headed by the Taigu Group.

No way, who made the Jardine Consortium be dismembered and wiped out among the four major British-funded consortiums, and Hutchison Whampoa was annexed, leaving only the Taikoo Consortium and Wheelock.

But Wheelock is still stuck in a quagmire. It is too busy to take care of itself, and its strength is inferior to that of the Swire Consortium. The position of the leader of this alliance is naturally the Swire Consortium.

As for HSBC, which is the most powerful bank in the true sense, needless to say, it was directly excluded from the British capital of Hong Kong.

Many of them were very angry with Shen Bi, a traitor who only had money in his eyes, completely disregarded their interests, and wanted to deal with Chinese capital.

Shen Bi himself must be aware of this, but he judges that the future of Xiangjiang lies in the Chinese capital. As the chairman of HSBC, he only needs to be responsible for all shareholders. Naturally, interests come first. What kind of conflicts of interest, he can I don't want to get involved.

"So Norman, do you mean that you won't sell the shares of the Hong Kong Telephone Company?"

In the face of Lawrence Kadoorie's questioning, Norman Shi Yahuai nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, let them do what they want, anyway, I definitely won't sell it."

Lawrence Kadoorie immediately smiled and said, "That's good."

"Swire Group holds 24.5% of the shares, and we hold 15.8% of the shares, which is a total of 4.3%."

"And the Hong Kong government still owns 20%. The Hong Kong government will definitely not sell it. As a result, the upper limit of Jiuding Securities' acquisition is only 39.7%, which is also unable to fight against us."

"Not to mention that at least 15 percent of the Hong Kong Telephone Company is still in the hands of other British-owned families."

Norman Shi Yahuai obviously thought of this, so he said with a smile: "Yes, we can't fail in theory."

"Although other people hold equity, they may not be able to withstand the pressure of the Jiuding Consortium. Maybe they will sell their shares, but it doesn't matter."

Lawrence Kadoorie immediately seized the opportunity to sell miserably: "Norman, other people will definitely not be able to stand the pressure, even I can't stand the pressure, so I have to come to you."

"You also know that in the financial field, the strength of the Jiuding Consortium is terrible. It can grow because of its unbeatable financial strength."

"Now that the Jiuding Consortium is well-capitalized, if it troubles me in the stock market, the trouble will be big. Norman, Shen Bi is unreliable, and I can only trust you in the whole Xiangjiang."

"It's not as good as this, in order to facilitate your control of the Hong Kong Electric Lighting Company, and for me to keep the Chunghwa Electric Power Company, we will exchange shares between us. I will transfer the equity of the Hong Kong Telephone Company that I hold to you, and you will hold the Chunghwa Electric Power Co., Ltd. Transfer the equity of the company to me, and I will make up the difference with cash, what do you think?"

At this time, Lawrence Kadoorie finally showed his fox tail.

Norman Shi Yahuai's expression changed, and his deep eyes were fixed on Lawrence Kadoorie. The latter's face was as thick as a city wall, and he kept an expectant smile without any guilt.
