Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

The shareholders' meeting before the steel plant was put into operation ended in this way, although it was not stated explicitly. However, everyone has formed a tacit understanding, and the steel factory still follows Bao Zixuan's words. After all, the founding shareholders Huo Yingdong, Dong Haoyun, and the Bao family all support him now. It can be said that his position is unshakable.

After the serious talk, everyone began to enter the entertainment session. There was no place to visit in Shenhai City at this time, so Bao Zixuan had no choice but to hold a small cocktail party at Heiyun Canteen. During the construction of Heiyun Canteen, the rooftop was decorated very beautifully just to hold small cocktail parties. In Xiangjiang, Heiyun Group’s cafeteria rooftop is not limited to this for a long time. Many employees choose to hold weddings here; it can be regarded as a disguised benefit for the company!

Everyone was chatting and laughing, of course there were exceptions. That was our charter king, and he was really uncomfortable not being able to sit on the board. And in his heart, he thought it was an insult to him that the old man came here in person to give the Bao family face. Mr. Bao has not been involved in world affairs for a long time, and he did not expect to come back after recovering from a serious illness. This is also a reflection of the fact that the entire Bao family has no successor.

The charter king has been thinking that if he has a son, he can have his son come over. Even being scolded is a kind of training. At least he can represent the Bao family legitimately. There is always something inappropriate about a son-in-law, especially for an occasion like this.

Mr. Bao has been observing the chartering king, even though the shipping king was once the richest man in Hong Kong. The current wealth can be regarded as the second highest in Xiangjiang, but he knows that there must be a barrier in the charter boat king's heart. He must be very concerned about not being able to participate in the board of directors of Bao Huodong Mining Company.

Mr. Bao: "You are such a big man, when will you be able to be calm?"

Charter King: "I'm not thinking about not participating in the board of directors, but I'm thinking that at your age, you have to personally come forward for the interests of the Bao family. If there are men in our family, it would be considered a shame to be ignored and ridiculed by these people. This kind of training, and Huo Yingdong and others will definitely let him participate in the board of directors for the sake of the Bao family's face. Now I can only ask you to come forward. It seems that the Bao family has no successor. We have a lot of assets, but in the end, what's the use! "

Mr. Bao: "It's good if you think so. As the head of a family, you always have to give everyone an explanation when your family members make mistakes. It is true that our Bao family is not prosperous. But who knows the future! Don't pay too much attention to anything, it's the Bao family What belongs to the Bao family will always belong to the Bao family, and no one can take it away."

"Even if we have nothing now, we are still the Bao family! If we, the Bao family, don't produce a genius every few generations, then we are really sorry for our ancestors."

Bao Zixuan once again became the focus of everyone's attention. Li Zhaoji said: "Xiao Baosheng, when can we apply for a loan for that project?"

Bao Zixuan: "As long as there is a good project, I can do it at any time. Li Sheng has already had the idea, right?"

Lee Shau Kee: "I don't know if acquiring a company is a good project."

After hearing this, Bao Zixuan knew that Li Shauji was preparing to take action against China Gas. This is 2 years earlier than in history. It seems that the butterfly effect has become more and more obvious.

Towngas is the abbreviation of the Hong Kong and China Gas Group. It was founded in 1862. It is the first public utility in Hong Kong and the only cross-regional pipeline gas supplier in Hong Kong. It officially supplied gas to Hong Kong on December 3, 1864.

The relationship between Lee Shau Kee and Hong Kong and China Gas began in the 1970s. At that time, Hong Kong and China Gas was facing an “acquisition crisis.” The rapid increase in Hong Kong's population has made piped gas popular in large areas, which has brought excellent development opportunities to Hong Kong and China Gas. There is news in the market that Hong Kong Electric Company, a competitor of Hong Kong and China Gas, is raising capital and preparing to join forces with the famous trader Jardine Matheson to launch an acquisition of Hong Kong and China Gas.

At that time, Hong Kong and China Gas had been listed on the market, and the total number of shares on the market was more than 7.8 million. However, all members of the board of directors combined only controlled more than ten percent of the shares. If the Hong Kong Electric Light Company acquired enough shares from the market, , you can take over Hong Kong and China Gas. Lee Ming-ze, then chairman of the board of directors of Town and China Gas, and securities dealer Ho Ting-sik approached Lee Shau-kee for assistance. Lee Shau-kee readily agreed and purchased 200,000 shares, helping Hong Kong and China Gas regain the initiative and quietly resolve the " Takeover Crisis.” With the support of Lee Shau Kee, Hong Kong and China Gas has continued to develop steadily and continues its enterprising style of continuous expansion and innovation.

It seems that with the backing of Bao Huodong Mining Company, Lee Shau Kee is more confident and has already considered acquiring China Gas in advance. Baozi thought for a while and said: "Since Li Sheng is sure, there is no reason why we are both Chinese businessmen and should not support it. How much money you need can be directly told to the company's finance, and I will coordinate. If it is not enough, I can contribute part of it to purchase some shares. But please rest assured that all voting rights belong to Li Sheng."

Li Shauji said: "What does Mr. Bao want to get?"

Li Zhaoji was also considering that it was impossible for Bao Zixuan to help him innocently. Everyone is the kind of person who doesn't let the hawk see the rabbit, so there must be additional conditions for the two of them not being related to each other.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "Li Sheng misunderstood, I am optimistic about Li Sheng. I really have no other ideas. Whether you believe it or not, I have always said this. I am investing in Li Sheng."

"A person's energy is limited, and it is impossible to do everything. First, you do not give other people a way to survive, and they are easily isolated. Second, you have to specialize in the industry, and you don't want laymen to lead experts. I studied science and engineering, so for Proficient in mechanical and electronic products; but in the real estate and jewelry industries, he is just a layman. If you want to do it, it is better to invest directly in Li Sheng and Zheng Sheng, which may bring better benefits. You can make money easily, Why not."

When Li Zhaoji heard what Bao Zixuan said, he felt it made sense. No wonder he can become the richest man in Hong Kong. He knows how to read people and knows his own strengths and weaknesses. This kind of talent is the most terrifying. They often only want results and basically don't care about other issues. It can be said that they are masters with very clear goals.

Lee Shau Kee: "So Mr. Bao knows which company I want to acquire."

Bao Zixuan: "Isn't Li Sheng a director of some company now?"

Lee Shau Kee: "Now that Bao Sheng has figured it out, it will be much easier to handle. We will start taking action when we get back. The premise is that Bao Sheng's shareholding cannot exceed 15%."

Bao Zixuan: "No problem, I think this cooperation is just the beginning."

After saying that, the two people held hands together. At first, Bao Zixuan didn't ask anyone to buy the shares of China Gas. The Hong Kong government has clear restrictions on the public livelihood industry, and the annual profit cannot exceed 16%. Moreover, Lee Shau Kee only really took action on the company in 1983. No one expected that it would happen so far in advance.

The fate of Towngas was decided by two people with just a few words, which was very embarrassing for the company. Through this incident, Bao Zixuan also knew that a lot of history was changing, whether for good or bad. But I came here to change the world. What’s the point of living a wonderful life if I can’t.

Seeing the actions of the two people, everyone knew that Bao Zixuan and Li Shauji must have reached some agreement, otherwise it would not be possible for them to suddenly shake hands and still talk and laugh now. But this is someone else’s business secret, and even if they are close, it’s not easy to get involved.

Seeing this situation, Mr. Bao nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yu Gang, you see! Bao Zixuan's position in the hearts of Xiangjiang businessmen is becoming more and more important. Li Shauji has his own way of doing business. He is such a person Now I have taken the initiative to cooperate with Bao Zixuan. Don’t always be unable to let go of your figure and always think that you are being bullied by juniors. Face is sometimes the most valuable thing.”

Huo Yingdong was very pleased to see more and more cooperation among Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong. Isn't this exactly what he wanted to see?

So Huo Yingdong said with a smile: "It seems that we have to raise a toast to celebrate the cooperation agreement between Xiao Baosheng and Li Sheng. But next time if you have any good projects, remember to call us."
