Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

When Lin Baicheng met Li Zhaoji and Zhong Zhengsheng.

At the Peninsula Hotel, several people also gathered together.

Although they said they were eating together, Shen Zou, Shi Yadi Shihuai Ya, Henry Kasik and Michael Kadoorie didn't think much about eating at all.

The four of them just ate it hastily and then talked about business.

"Today, Carin's stock price plummeted 60%, leaving only a market value of HK$1.16 billion. Compared with the market value when we took over some time ago, it has dropped by almost 60%. The loss is a bit big."

Michael Kadoorie said quietly, compared to the entire Kadoorie family, more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars is not an unimaginably large sum. Even if it is a total loss, the Kadoorie family can afford it.

The problem is that in less than a month, the shares he took over have lost almost HK$80 million, which will make his father and other members of the family question his ability.

Although the Kadoorie family does not have many family members, there are still some. He is not the only heir of the family, but only the best heir. If the investments he leads suffer losses every time and fail to bring benefits to the family, then his status as heir will definitely face challenges.

"yes."

Henry Caesar nodded in agreement: "The shares purchased for almost 135 million Hong Kong dollars are now only about 58 million, and the loss is almost 80 million Hong Kong dollars." It has only been a month, and he has lost so much. Just think about it. Heartache.

"Do you think Lin Baicheng has already been ready?"

Shi Yadi Shi Huaiya suddenly said: "He knew that there was a problem with the Jiani Group, so he sold his shares in advance, and then detonated this mine. Not only did he hit Chen Songqing and Jiani Group, but he also cheated us?"

The reason why he thinks so is mainly because compared to the sharp decline of Carin Group, Hutchison Whampoa's stock price has risen a lot today. Because Hutchison Whampoa avoided lightning in advance, shareholders recognized Lin Baicheng's ability more, and Hutchison Whampoa, which sold its shares in advance, also benefited.

"Probably not?"

Henry Kasik felt that this possibility was unlikely.

"probably not."

Shen Zong also said: "The reason why Lin Baicheng asked Hutchison Whampoa to sell the shares of Carining Group was because among him and Li Pengfei, Chen Songqing chose Li Pengfei and chose to be friends with us. Therefore, Lin Baicheng got angry and sold Hutchison Whampoa The sale of the shares of Jiani Group he held was also to suppress the stock price of Jiani Group, which can be seen from the fact that he stood up and bet against the stock price of Jiani Group."

"And why did Lin Baicheng have evidence of financial fraud of the Jianing Group? Everyone knows this. He bribed the accountant of the Jianing Group and obtained the evidence from the accountant Lu Zhixuan."

"If Lin Baicheng had evidence of financial fraud at the beginning of the Jiani Group, then he would not have allowed Hutchison Whampoa to take a stake in the Jiani Group. Even if it was discovered later, he would have chosen to sell the shares early instead of holding them until After Chen Songqing offended him, he sold his shares."

"A young man like him will definitely not tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes. If he discovers that there is a problem with the Jianing Group, he cannot tolerate it forever."

Shen Porridge did not think that this incident was the result of Lin Baicheng's premeditation. He believed that it was just a coincidence. Lin Baicheng was lucky and wanted to deal with Chen Songqing, but he got evidence of Jianing Group's financial fraud.

"Whether Lin Baicheng had planned it or not, now is not the time to talk about this."

Henry Kaiserk said: "Let's think about how to deal with the affairs of the Jiani Group and how to deal with the Jiani shares in everyone's hands."

"Yes, this is the most important thing."

Michael Kadoorie nodded in agreement and looked at Shen Porridge as he spoke.

The reason why they invested in Jianing Group was because of Shen Zhou's persuasion and because they believed in Shen Zhou. Now that something happened to Jia Ning Group, of course they had to solve it with Shen Zhou.

Shen Zhou also knew their purpose. He knew that the meal tonight would not be delicious, but he had to come and there was no way to avoid it.

Shen Porridge said to the three of them: "Today I have asked people to stabilize the stock price of Jia Ning, and spent more than 70 million Hong Kong dollars. If I had not taken action today, Jia Ning's stock price would have only fallen even more."

Henry Kaesik shook his head: "Our shares have already fallen by 60%. How much further can they fall? 70% or 80%? It can't possibly fall to the point where there is not even 10% of the value left, right?"

The three of them would not appreciate HSBC's intervention to stabilize the share price of the Carnegie Group, because today the share price of the Carnegie Group plummeted by 60%, which is not to say that due to HSBC's intervention, it only fell by 10% or 20%.

Shi Yadi Shihuaiya asked directly: "Taipan, is there any way that HSBC can help Jiani Group? Although Jiani Group has financial problems, I believe that as long as HSBC is willing to give Jiani Group a high loan, it is not possible. Restoring the share price of the Carnegie Group to what it was before today will definitely increase the share price. I won’t say anything else. As long as the share price of the Carnegie Group can return to 70% of the price when I bought it, then I will I can accept it, and I will pay for the remaining losses myself.”

What he said is really not just talk. The seriousness of the financial fraud of Jiali Group has not yet been confirmed. If Jiali Group can obtain a large loan from HSBC at this time, the higher the loan amount, the greater the financial fraud of Jiali Group. The group's stock price will rebound higher and higher, because everyone does not have to worry about the bankruptcy of Jia Ning Group.

However, if this happens, HSBC will have to pour real money into it.

Michael Kadoorie also said: "Taipan, if HSBC can do this, I can accept a 30% loss. I will treat it as my own incompetence and investment losses."

"Taipan, now it depends on HSBC whether Jianing Group can recover."

Henry Kasik also said, obviously he also agreed. Compared with the current loss of 60%, a loss of 30% is much more acceptable.

As for restoring the market value of Jiani Group to the market value when they took over the shares, unless Jiani Group itself has no problems, this dream should not be considered. Since some losses have occurred, you must learn to accept them. They will not cease to exist just because you cannot accept them.

"Three of you, I know you want the share price of the Jiani Group to rebound, and I want it too, but what you said is simply impossible to happen. It is absolutely impossible for HSBC to give any more loans to the Jiani Group at this time. "

Shen Porridge knew what the three of them meant, and he also knew that he was also responsible for these three people's huge losses, but there were some things that he absolutely could not agree to, and even if he agreed, he would not be able to do it.

"Three of you, I'm just a senior executive at HSBC, and there's a board of directors above me. If I give a large loan to Jianing Group at this time, it will definitely be rejected by the board of directors, and the board of directors will also question my ability and my relationship with Is there any unseen benefit transfer between the Jianing Group?"

"To be honest with you three, the account of Jianing Group in HSBC has been secretly frozen by HSBC. Now that Jianing Group wants to withdraw any money from HSBC, it needs complicated procedures, in order to minimize the risk of HSBC in Jianing Group. The losses suffered.”

"So, at this time, HSBC will not give any more loans to the Jiani Group. Without a loan, HSBC is worried that it holds a large number of Jiani Group shares and does not want to see the Jiani Group's stock price rise again. It’s the result of a fall.”

If HSBC borrows money from the Carnegie Group at this time, it will only worsen the situation for the Cargo Group. If the Cargo Group's share price plummets again, HSBC will also suffer losses, so HSBC did not act immediately. However, HSBC has its eyes on the assets of the Jianing Group. Once the Jianing Group is irreversible, the first thing HSBC will do is to try to make up for the losses.

"Taiban, what do you think we should do?"

Shi Yadi Shihuaiya said directly: "HSBC is a bank. It is easier for us to reduce losses than us. We will be in misfortune. Let's not say whether the Jiani Group will fall. Just now, we have already suffered huge losses."

Henry Kaiserk even said: "Although investment is risky and you bear the risk at your own risk, it has only been a month since we bought the shares of Jiani Group and we have lost so much, which is somewhat unjustifiable. Taipan, we I bought a stake in the Jianing Group just for your sake. Now that something has happened to the Jianing Group, you must not ignore us."

"Taipan, we need you to give us a hand." Michael Kadoorie lowered his attitude.

"Three of you, I can make you a promise here."

Hearing this, Shen Zong said to the three of them: "You only invested in Jianing Group because you believed in me. Of course I will not let you suffer huge losses in vain. I can't help you regarding the losses you incurred in your investment in Jianing Group. But I can make up for it from other places. For example, when your company needs a loan, I can slightly relax the conditions, provide more loans at the same time, and slightly lower the interest rate, as compensation for the three of you, you see How about it?"

It is absolutely impossible to give money directly, and it is impossible for HSBC to buy their shares at the original price, so they can only make up for it from other places.

"It's fine on my end."

Henry Kaiserk said immediately.

Shi Yadi Shihuaiya nodded: "Please ask the senior class to take more care of the Taikoo Group from now on."

Michael Kadoorie also said: "This loss cannot be blamed on Taipan, and Taipan should not take it to heart."

The three of them stated one after another that they were able to accept the compensation offered by Shen Porridge.

The three of them knew very well that although they bought the shares of Jianing Group for Shen Chou's sake, they also wanted to join hands with Shen Chow and Chen Songqing to deal with Lin Baicheng, so they voluntarily bought shares.

If Shen Chou really doesn't care about them now, that's okay. It's just that our friendship will end here, and neither Shen Chou nor HSBC will lose money.

But now, Shen Zhou was willing to make compensation, and it was not a verbal check, it was achievable, so the three of them had no choice but to accept it. If he refuses to give up, Shen Porridge will definitely not agree. Then he will get nothing but a fight and a fight.

The three of them accepted it as soon as they got along, and Shen Porridge also breathed a sigh of relief. The compensation given now is nothing to him. As a senior executive at HSBC, he has some rights and can fulfill his previous promises.

But if you want more, there is no other way. Shen Chou is not willing to pay too much. After all, under his leadership, HSBC has lost a lot of money from Jianing Group. He still has a lot of troubles to deal with. How can it be possible? Keep cutting meat.

Shi Yadi Shi Huaiya said: "If possible, we'd better raise the share price of Jiali Group so that everyone can lose less."

"The question now is how serious the financial fraud of Jianing Group is, and whether there are other problems with Chen Songqing."

Henry Kaiser said cautiously, raising the stock price is of course the best choice, but the problem is that if the pitfall of the Jiani Group is too big, their further investment will only become a cost.

"I think we should take a look first."

Shen Porridge said: "When something happens to the Jianing Group, the one who is most anxious should be Chen Songqing. Anyway, he has come out now. Let's see what he does and whether he can pull up the share price of the Jianing Group." Rise up.”

Michael Kadoorie said with some worry: "Chen Songqing alone may not be able to stop Lin Baicheng."

“We can provide support in terms of networking.”

Shi Yadi Shihuai Ya said: "For example, on the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau, we can exert pressure. Even if the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau cannot stop the investigation of Jianing Group, we can also slow down the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau's investigation speed and win for Chen Songqing. more time."

"Support in this area is okay, but if I were asked to invest real money, I would not agree." Henry Kasik expressed his position.

"That's what I mean too."

Michael Kadoorie followed.

"Let's do it this way."

Shen Porridge nodded: "We have already invested a lot in Jia Ning Group, and there is no reason to invest more money. After all, no one knows what the situation of Jia Ning Group is now. However, we cannot let Jia Ning Group do anything. Ning Group has fallen, so we still need to pay more attention and try our best to help."

"What should we do with Chen Songqing?" Henry Kasik asked.

"Now is not the time."

Shen Porridge waved his hand: "Jianing Group still needs him. Even if everyone is dissatisfied with him, we have to wait until Jianing Group stabilizes."

At that time, no one else will say anything. Shen Zong will naturally never let Chen Songqing go. He will definitely teach Chen Songqing a profound lesson and let Chen Songqing know the consequences of cheating and deceiving him.

This time he fell into the trap of Jianing Group. Shen Zhou knew that many people would be watching his joke. If he didn't respond afterwards, he would only be looked down upon by the world.

The three of them did not object after hearing Chen Songqing's words. They knew that if the current Jianing Group lost Chen Songqing, or if Chen Songqing failed directly, then Jianing Group's stock price would plummet, and they would be the ones to lose.

Therefore, as Shen Zhou said, they still need Chen Songqing now. Even if they want to take revenge on Chen Songqing, they will have to wait until the Jianing Group stabilizes.
