Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Lang Youqing and concubine cooperated intentionally, and the result was naturally satisfactory to both parties. Now that the two generals have completed their tasks well, the next step is to make preliminary preparations. This time, unlike in the past, Heiyun Group is not launching new products. With such a high-profile investment in mainland China, the Governor's Office and even London would definitely feel uncomfortable.

In order to avoid trouble, at least the procedures must be absolutely legal. Listed companies cannot decide everything at once and must make announcements to the public. Shadantong was caught by Bao Zixuan because of everyone's paternalistic habits. Directly losing the right to manage the company, Mr. Bao would not make such a mistake.

Therefore, before the press conference, Yuan Tianfan and Huo Jianning began to make frequent appointments with the heads of the four major stock exchanges in Hong Kong. Although most of it is digested internally, Mr. Bao also wants ordinary citizens of Xiangjiang to participate.

The future benefits will be so great that it’s hard to even imagine what level they will reach. The more people own Hutchison Whampoa shares, the safer it will be.

Although this time it is not a listing, the scale of the stock issuance is larger than that of the listing. Therefore, there cannot be any mistakes, at least it cannot make people laugh.

Currently, Bao Zixuan only has one listed company, and other shareholding companies are mostly investments. And I don’t want Heiyun Group to be listed in the future; as long as it ensures absolute competitive advantage, whether it is listed or not is not that important.

At this time, Bao Shaofu was discussing with Li Chaoren about the issue of allotment of shares. Because of the shortage of funds, coupled with the acquisition of banks and the purchase of land from the New World. Li Chaoren's shareholding ratio in Hutchison Whampoa has dropped to 5.8%, but he is still the second largest shareholder after Bao Capital.

Now that new shares are to be issued, of course, priority must be given to internal distribution.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Mainland China very much hopes that we will invest this time. The land issue has been basically solved. As long as our funds are in place, construction can start at any time."

"Currently, I personally hold 49% of the shares in Hutchison Whampoa, and Li Sheng holds 5.8%; most of the rest is in the hands of Heiyun employees. If Li Sheng agrees, the original shareholders will have internal priority rights to distribute shares."

"Hutchison Whampoa currently has a total of 100 million shares. I plan to split one share into four shares this time, which means the total issuance will be controlled at 400 million shares. The current price per share is HK$502. Although 400 million shares have been issued, But the price cannot fall, I have absolute confidence in this."

"At the same time, each of the existing shareholders can allot the same number of shares according to the existing number of shares and the internal price. The internal price is HK$100 per share, which means that I will first spend HK$5.2 billion to buy 50 million shares; Li Sheng will spend 5.8 HKD 100 million to purchase 5.8 million shares. However, the shares subscribed internally have a three-year protection period. Then the remaining 200 million shares will be put into the market, and the final number will depend on your ability."

By doing this, Li Chaoren knew that he did not have the upper hand in terms of financial strength. The shares will inevitably be diluted, but things have already developed to this point, and Bao Shaofu made it clear. So what if the shareholding ratio decreases? From the beginning to the end, I never thought about obtaining the management rights of Hutchison Whampoa. Maybe I had this idea before, but now, forget it!

Except for Bao Zixuan, the controlling shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa, the other shareholders are basically Heiyun employees. How can he compete with others with this little share? And with Bao’s ability, only God knows how Hutchison Whampoa will develop in the future.

Li Chaoren said with a smile: "I don't have any problems at all. Everything is done according to Bao Sheng's plan."

There is an internal allotment of 5.8 million shares, which is equivalent to giving him 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. There is no reason to refuse.

Now that the two largest shareholders have agreed, things will be much easier to handle.

At the same time, Li Chaoren said that he would not attend the press conference. The attitude is very clear, I just want to be a shareholder. In fact, Li Chaoren has another meaning. The British side will definitely be unhappy with such a high-profile investment in mainland China. He is not as strong as Bao Shaofu, and he will never be able to withstand the pressure.

Since the benefits have been distributed well and everyone has no objections, everything can be easily discussed.

Hutchison Whampoa shares are not only held by Heung Kong Heiyun employees. Basically, executives from all countries in Heiyun buy it. Of course, they cannot be left behind in such an important event.

Fortunately, after everyone heard the plan given by the boss, they expressed their full cooperation. It can be said that by now, the basic work is ready. All that remains is that after the press conference, the stock will be re-listed.

At the same time, other tycoons in Xiangjiang were somewhat restless. Especially the shipping king Bao Yugang and Shadantong were forced by Bao Zixuan to hand over the company's management rights. So as the other instigator of this matter, how could Bao Zixuan not take revenge on him.

But now it's too late to say anything, all I can do is think of countermeasures.

However, the chartered boat king also learned wisely and knew that Shen Bi and Sha Dantong were unreliable; so he went directly to Huo Yingdong's house.

Although I don’t know what to do with the arrival of the Charter King. But where does the other party’s status lie? His popularity in Hong Kong, and his hard power in certain fields. He may even be stronger than himself, so Huo Yingdong certainly has to give him face.

Huo Yingdong said with a smile: "Bao Sheng hasn't been here for a long time. Why do you have so much time today?"

In fact, this time the main purpose is to find Huo Yingdong as a lobbyist, so that he can ease the relationship with Bao Zixuan; no one wants to be his enemy. Since the death of the shipping king Dong Haoyun, in the entire Xiangjiang, it is estimated that Mr. Huo is the only one who can talk to the richest man Bao, which will give him some face.

Bao Yugang said with a smile: "I have been very busy recently, so I didn't come over. If I have time, I came over for a look."

In fact, in terms of age, Pao Yugang is several years older than Huo Yingdong. However, there are some things that cannot be judged solely by age. Any tycoon in Hong Kong is older than the richest man Bao. But the strength and influence; do you dare to say that it is greater than others!

Bao Yugang didn't just go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. People who took the initiative to come over to visit an old friend definitely didn't have that much time to do.

But now that the other party doesn't say anything, Huo Yingdong can't ask any more questions. So the two of them started chatting.

Seeing that it was almost time, Pao Yugang said with a smile: "Huo Sheng, you must be aware of what has happened in Hong Kong recently. Zheng Yutong acquired Far East Bank and suffered a huge loss of tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars. Then he issued rare earth mineral bonds, which became a global phenomenon in Hong Kong. joke."

"The Bao family did not lose money in acquiring the bank, but the rare earth mineral bonds and helping Shardantong share some debts also cost more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. Although we obtained the mortgage equity of Innovation Bank and the Convention and Exhibition Center, the same investment was not enough. Compared to that, the difference is really too big.”

"Although it seems nothing on the surface, all this is not just because of our greed, but also because of human manipulation. As the saying goes, it is better to dissolve enemies than to make knots. Only you and Bao Zixuan are most familiar with each other in Xiangjiang. Therefore, I would like to ask you to be a peacemaker. "I'll be a host and have a meal together, either as an apology or as a sign of submission; in short, the Bao family doesn't want to keep struggling."

Hearing that the old boy had this purpose, Huo Yingdong didn't know what to say. The two generals of the Heiyun Department certainly knew about China mainland's plans to build CBDs in major cities in the past. Mr. Huo would never be jealous of the Xiangjiang businessmen who invested in mainland China in the past; he would even welcome them very much and would spare no effort to help them.

Now Bao Yugang asked him to come over to make peace, which he had done often before. But last time in China, for the sake of saying something, this kind of thing will not be done even to death.

Huo Yingdong said very seriously: "Sheng Bao, if it is anything else, it can be easily discussed. I also hope that Chinese businessmen can unite and strengthen themselves."

"But there are some things where it's not appropriate for me to step forward. Whether the other party will give me face or not is one thing. The most important thing is that you are all well-known tycoons in Hong Kong. It's not good for anyone to take a step back. Therefore, it is better to solve many things by yourself."

If the charter king couldn't hear the obvious words of rejection, he wouldn't be able to become a super tycoon.

Since the other party clearly refused, it was hard for the charter king to say anything more. After rejecting Huo Yingdong's proposal to have dinner together, he left Huo's house directly.

After seeing off Bao Yugang, Huo Yingdong also fell into deep thought. Bao Zixuan's strength has become so powerful that the shipping king Bao Yugang is afraid of him and takes the initiative to reconcile. It seems that some ideas are about to change; this time Hutchison Whampoa Company has built CBD projects in mainland cities in the past, coupled with the previous investment scale of Heiyun Group in China. As a result, Bao Zixuan's investment amount in mainland China may be more than that of all the tycoons in Hong Kong combined. The Huo family also needs to adjust its thinking and must not fall behind in this regard.

However, Huo Yingdong was very curious about Bao Zixuan's press conference. It’s really exciting to see how much money can be raised this time. There are some things that cannot be hidden from anyone, and Mr. Bao has no intention of hiding it deliberately.
