Reborn Tycoon Rise

A week passed quickly. Yao Mingcheng completed all the procedures for the establishment of Evergrande Company, and a series of legal documents were placed in front of Xu Zhi's desk.

The stock transfer procedures at Goldman Sachs have also been completed. Even though Goldman Sachs is reluctant to part with this customer, Yao Mingcheng also promised to seek loans from Goldman Sachs if necessary.

This is also true. Goldman Sachs is an investment company in the United States and cannot make deposits and loans, but this is overseas. Who can control them?

Xu Zhi looked at a stack of stocks and asked, "How many shares of Hutchison Whampoa and Yangtze River do we have now?"

Yao Mingcheng said: "Xu Sheng, all the 60 million Hong Kong dollars you left at Goldman Sachs have been used to purchase the stocks of Hutchison Whampoa and Yangtze River Unemployment. In addition, we used leverage to acquire 1.2% of Hutchison Whampoa's stocks. We are holding There are 5.1% of Hutchison and 3.6% of Cheung Kong Holdings.”

Xu Zhi frowned and said: "Changjiang Industrial's current market value is only a few hundred million, how come it only acquired 3.6%?"

Yao Mingcheng said: "It's not that I don't want to acquire it, but it's that Cheung Kong Holdings only went public in 1972. Although it has gone through several share increases and financing, the number of shares circulating on the market still does not exceed 30%. Moreover, during this period, Cheung Kong Holdings intended to acquire Wharf. As a result, the stock has a price but no market, and unless you buy it at a higher price, you can't buy it at all."

Xu Zhi nodded and said, "Okay!"

In his memory, Lao Li should have transferred the stock to Lao Bao in September, that is, there were still 2 months left, and Yangtze River's stock should have stabilized. However, it was at this time that Lao Li began to set his sights on Hutchison!

"How is the establishment of the securities company going?" Xu Zhi asked.

Yao Mingcheng said: "The procedures have been completed, but it is more troublesome to obtain a securities company license. I have now hired professional people to promote relationships. The headhunting company has found someone who meets Xu Sheng's requirements, but this requires Xu Sheng, you will conduct the interview in person."

After speaking, Yao Mingcheng took out a resume and handed it over.

Xu Zhi opened it, looked at it, and said with a smile: "This resume is pretty good!"

The person on the resume is named Wang Liming. He graduated from Harvard University School of Economics. He is 41 years old. He once worked at Citibank in the United States. After returning to Hong Kong, he has been working in the securities department of HSBC Bank.

Yao Mingcheng said: "Actually, this person was also introduced by Gao Yada. He heard that we were setting up our own securities company, so he introduced his classmates here. According to Gao Yada, this Wang Liming is very capable, but he was criticized by the British at HSBC. It’s difficult to get a position because of the crowd’s exclusion, so I’m planning to go out and find another job.”

Xu Zhi smiled and said: "Since we are classmates, we can't believe everything Gao Yada says."

Yao Mingcheng said: "Yes, so I gave the information to the headhunting company and asked them to verify the information. His academic qualifications and work experience are fine, but his working ability within HSBC has not been verified yet, but we What I know is that among Chinese people at HSBC, his promotion speed is very fast, so he should have some abilities."

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Okay, let's arrange the interview first!"

"No problem, I'll make arrangements right away!"

…

Early the next morning, Wang Liming came to Midea Company as agreed.

Looking at such a young Xu Zhi in front of him, Wang Liming did not neglect at all. Although he was introduced by his old classmate Gao Yada, since he was coming for an interview, he naturally had to ask about the situation of the next company. The newspapers and news were all hyping Xu Zhi in the front-end time. Although He was not interviewed, but some reporters with great savvy still obtained photos of Xu Zhi - old photos from when he was in school.

Although he is only 18 years old, the other party is already a self-made "billionaire" in Hong Kong. Of course, in the upper class of some truly wealthy people, Xu Zhi's valuation is not even worth hundreds of millions.

Xu Zhi smiled and said: "Sit down, what would you like to drink?"

Wang Liming said: "Thank you, just boiled water!"

The new secretary next to him immediately went to arrange drinks after hearing this, leaving only two people in the room.

Xu Zhi asked directly: "Sheng Wang, I would like to ask, why do you want to leave HSBC, which is the largest bank in Hong Kong?"

"It's very simple, people go up high! No matter how big HSBC is, it doesn't matter to me as an employee. What I care about more is my own future." Wang Liming answered more directly.

"Not bad." Xu Zhi liked this direct answer very much and asked with a smile: "If this is the case, then if one day in the future, a company offers you a higher price, will you also leave?"

"Yes, of course leave!" Wang Liming said: "If one day a person with more ability than me comes to work for Xu Sheng, but the income required is lower than mine, what will Xu Sheng choose?"

Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Okay, that's it for now. Now the next question is, what do you think of the Wharf incident at the beginning of this year?"

"Wharf?" Wang Liming pondered for a few words and said: "This is also the hottest thing in the stock market this year. After this incident happened, we also calculated the assets of Wharf. Although the company suffered serious losses in the short term, As long as we survive this period, the future profits will be immeasurable.”

Xu Zhi asked: "If you were the boss of Cheung Kong Industries, what would you do?"

Wang Liming said: "There is no problem with Li Jiacheng's strategy, but he was too hasty. He invested HK$200 million in acquisitions in two or three months. This approach clearly tells everyone that there are big buyers entering the market. , in fact, I also find it very strange. With his years of experience in the business world, he should not make this kind of mistake. If I were him, I would spend more than a year slowly acquiring it. Even if it is still exposed in the end, the result is There will definitely be more stocks available than now, and the cost will be much lower.”

Xu Zhidao: "When Real Estate acquired the milk company, it was not a forced acquisition. It was also successful. Maybe Li Jiacheng just wanted to copy it."

Wang Liming shook his head and said: "Impossible, the situation is completely different. At the time, Land was much larger than Dairy Farm, and Land was maliciously manipulating its own stock, causing the stock price to skyrocket, and then exchanging shares for shares.

After the successful acquisition, the stock price plummeted again. This approach was bloody, but the lowest cost, but it was also the last time. It is estimated that in the next ten years, investors will not believe in the stock-for-share plan!

If Li Jiacheng wants to acquire Wharf, he can only use cash. But at the beginning, Milk was fighting against the entire Jardine Matheson consortium, but now Yangtze River wants to acquire the companies under Jardine Matheson. In this case, he can only use sneak attacks, and a head-on confrontation is courting death. , there are more than ten buildings in Central, and any one of them can buy the entire Cheung Kong Holdings. . "

In 1973, Hong Kong's largest real estate company launched a stock-for-share acquisition of Dairy Milk International. However, before the acquisition, Land Land used various methods to forcibly raise its own stock. Although it succeeded in the end, it happened to encounter the first oil crisis. During the crisis, investors suffered heavy losses.

This is also the reason why the value of Wharf far exceeds the market value. People don't believe in the stock market at all. Of course, the stock price has gone down. However, this is also a feast for Chinese-funded tycoons. Comrade Lao Li is the one who seized the opportunity and succeeded. , annexed Hutchison.

Xu Zhi asked again: "Have you ever considered that there is another possibility, that Li Jiacheng did it deliberately?"

"Deliberately?" Wang Liming was confused: "Why do you do this? Is it just to make a fortune by raising the stock price?"

Xu Zhi shrugged and said: "I don't know, maybe there is a deeper plan! You don't think Li Jiacheng can't think of problems that even people like you and me can think of? And he has countless capable people. In theory, This mistake should not be made.”

Wang Liming nodded and said: "That's right, we are talking about it on paper."

Xu Zhi added: "Sheng Wang, do you have any questions about our company?"

Wang Liming said: "I want to know how much freedom I will have in the future?"

Xu Zhidao: "Basically, securities companies have to operate according to my requirements, that is, I decide what stocks to buy, and your task is to accomplish the set goals in the shortest time and with the least capital. In the future, I am going to complete several business acquisitions in the stock market, which requires you to operate.

At other times, I can first authorize you to have a free quota of one million Hong Kong dollars. The future situation will be determined based on how much money you can earn. My request is also very simple. You only need to outperform the market twice! "

Wang Liming was quite disappointed. He hoped that his boss would ignore his own investment funds and hand over the capital to him for operation. Only in this way can he exert his strongest ability. So he said: "Xu Sheng, 1 million is actually not much. In HSBC, the funds I can use far exceed this amount."

Xu Zhi thought for a while and said: "Well, let's do this. Soon I will be preparing to acquire a company. You will be the operator then. If you do well, then after the acquisition is completed, depending on the results, you will receive between five hundred and one thousand." Thousands of funds, but again, the more profits you make, the more funds you can deploy in the future, and when I need to make an acquisition, all orders must be obeyed by me."

Wang Liming nodded and agreed: "Okay, no problem. I wonder which company we want to acquire next?"

Xu Zhi smiled and said: "There's no rush now. You can form a team first when you come here. I will tell you when our securities license is issued!"
