Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up
Chapter 547 The Courage of HSBC
Bao Zixuan basically stayed in the Tin Shui Wai area in recent days, but spent most of his time at Yulin Polytechnic and Weasel Factory. In order not to put pressure on Yuan Tianfan, it was his first time to come to Heiyun Bank today, or because there were some problems with the central computer cluster system that needed to be dealt with. After all, the bank software system was developed based on the software he wrote.
Seeing the boss coming over, Yuan Tianfan quickly reported to him the bank's recent situation. Governor Yuan did not expect that the super-rich people in Hong Kong would be so supportive. People like Fok Yingdong came to save money; and they also deposited foreign exchange. The purpose was to hope that Heiyun would have enough foreign exchange reserves to ensure that the Hong Kong dollar would not depreciate.
But at this time, Yuan Tianfan actually received an invitation from Mo Keyuan. This made President Yuan feel incredible, and he finally agreed. After he left, Mo Keyuan, as the highest-ranking Chinese employee of HSBC Bank, suddenly called and made an appointment. It was not that simple.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Earlier today, the person in charge of Morgan Bank Xiangjiang went to HSBC and had a long conversation in Shen Bi's office; do you think this matter will be that simple!"
Yuan Tianfan didn't expect that Bao Zixuan would know everything about what happened at HSBC, and suddenly he couldn't understand this boss. People who usually have no temper and rarely get angry are the scariest people. Even in this way, he can still know what his opponent is doing. It seems that the strength of the intelligence department of Heiyun Group cannot be ignored.
Yuan Tianfan: "The boss means that Morgan asked HSBC for help and wanted to find a breakthrough from HSBC."
Bao Zixuan: "This is just a guess. I hope Shen Bi will not do anything that is sorry to the people of Xiangjiang, but who can say for sure! The British have never regarded Xiangjiang as their home. While harming the interests of Xiangjiang, they can also make people They will never be lenient when it comes to profiting for themselves.”
Yuan Tianfan: "Then what should we do."
Bao Zixuan: "Bring this with you when you go to dinner with Mo Keyuan today." After speaking, he took out a small pen from his pocket.
Then he said: "This is the recording pen that the group has just successfully developed. At the same time, bring some good wine with you."
When Yuan Tianfan saw the object called a voice recorder in front of him, he immediately understood what his boss meant. He smiled and said: "It seems that I will risk my life to accompany Mo Keyuan tonight."
Bao Zixuan: "Take the driver and don't drive after drinking. We'll discuss countermeasures based on the specific situation tomorrow."
Mo Keyuan drove directly out of the bank after get off work, and did not stay to work overtime as usual. After receiving the news, Pu Weishi said with a smile: "I really haven't seen much of the world. The Chinese are still too easy to be satisfied." After that, he stopped paying attention to Mo Keyuan. He still has important things to do now.
In fact, when he returned to the office, Puwei Shi received news that Shen Bi was going to convene an interim board of directors. It seems that Shen Daban is more anxious than anyone else, and he is also worried about the long nights and many dreams.
Several directors are in the UK and can only be connected by phone. It is not easy to call people together. Shen Bi probably also lost a lot of energy.
The directors in Xiangjiang were a little baffled when they received the notice from Shen Bi, but after all, this is the time when the banking industry in Xiangjiang is experiencing a short-term crisis. Shen Daban must have something very important, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious.
As a bank established in 1865, HSBC has a history of more than 100 years. This resulted in a large number of shareholders, and Shen Bi held a board meeting during off-duty hours, leaving some directors with no time to come at all.
This is Shen Bi's cleverness, making a time difference. As long as more than half of the directors support his proposal, the matter can be passed, and this time he is not planning to ask Chinese directors to participate. Basically, only allies who have a very close relationship with him will come, so that the resolution can be passed smoothly on the board of directors.
Seeing that everyone was basically present, Shen Bi said: "I am very sorry to convene everyone for an impromptu meeting today because there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity right in front of us. If we can seize this opportunity, HSBC Bank's globalization strategy will basically be able to achieve peace and stability." Realize. But once we fail to seize this opportunity, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the US market in a short period of time.
"It is because the matter is urgent and important that I convened a meeting with you during off-duty hours. We are all shareholders of HSBC, and the interests of HSBC are our common goal."
At this time, a director who was very close to Shen Bi said: "Shen Bi, just say it! As long as it is beneficial to HSBC, we will definitely support you. You have never let anyone down in so many years."
After hearing the first person speak, the people below also agreed. Even the directors who were connected by phone in the UK also expressed support.
Seeing this situation made Shen Bi very happy. As long as the board of directors supported it, other things would be much easier to handle. So Shen Bi continued: "The negotiations between Hua Ying and the United States have not yet reached a clear result, but our board of directors must consider the future of HSBC." . Once China takes back Xiangjiang, the position of HSBC will be very embarrassing. What will HSBC do if Huaxia banks enter Xiangjiang on a large scale? It is now the largest bank in Xiangjiang, but who can guarantee that HSBC will still have so many privileges in the future."
"So we have to go global, and the U.S. Ocean Millennium Bank is a goal that has been set for a long time. There has been no actual progress before due to factors such as U.S. banking policies, but now things have turned around. Earlier today, the person in charge of Morgan Bank in Hong Kong came over Come to me, Morgan Bank is willing to help HSBC acquire Ocean Millennium Bank, provided that we help them tide over the difficulties."
Seeing that the directors were waiting, Shen Bi continued: "Morgan Bank hopes to borrow HK$100 billion from HSBC as a stepping stone for them to help HSBC acquire Ocean Mile Bank."
I heard that Morgan Bank actually needs 100 billion Hong Kong dollars in funds, which must be used in the Hong Kong dollar futures market. With this HK$100 billion, Morgan Bank is likely to turn defeat into victory, making all the previous efforts of the people of Hong Kong in vain.
A director said worriedly: "Lending so much money to Morgan Bank at this time is an act of enemy investment. Once the news leaks out, HSBC will become the public enemy of the whole of Hong Kong. Isn't it too risky?"
Seeing that several directors were echoing below, Puwei Shi knew that he had to take action on his own now. Because Shen Bi had already given him a wink. Although he was reluctant, he knew he couldn't refuse.
Puweisi: "Heiyun Bank is rising very fast. According to the current development, it will catch up with HSBC in less than two years. With the addition of other Chinese-owned banks, HSBC's living space is constantly being compressed."
"The most correct choice for HSBC is to go out. If we are stuck in Hong Kong, we can only wait for death. Now the Morgan family has set out conditions. If we don't agree, we won't be able to enter the U.S. market again in the future."
"The future prospects of Xiangjiang are so uncertain. What if we don't change? I hope the directors will consider the future of HSBC. As for the issue of news leakage, don't worry too much. We have already thought of a comprehensive strategy. "
Shen Bi saw that the situation was getting better and continued: "Morgan Bank uses US dollars as collateral, which is equivalent to the money still being deposited in HSBC. No matter what happens, HSBC will not lose money, and it can also earn a lot of interest."
Hearing such strong collateral, HSBC directors fell silent. This is indeed a sure-profit deal, and at most it will cause some damage to the bank's reputation. But this was nothing compared to the huge profits, so everyone acquiesced in the lending business.
A British director said on the phone: "We don't know the situation in Hong Kong. I won't object to what you decide. It's best to decide the matter of Ocean Mile Bank in advance to avoid long nights and dreams. Although the Morgan family has good credit, but The person negotiating with us is only a person in charge of the Xiangjiang region. If something unexpected happens, HSBC will be too passive."
Shen Bi agreed to all the requests made by the directors. It can be said that the directors of HSBC are very courageous. As long as there is money to be made, it doesn't matter if you are doing business with Satan, let alone doing business with the Morgan family.
These directors of HSBC are all British, and they have no business in the lives of the people of Xiangjiang. This is just a place for them to make money. In their hearts, Xiangjiang has always been a colony. This idea has never changed even after entering modern society.
