Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 78 Hong Kong government intervenes

Lin Baicheng originally thought that after he decided to buy 61% of Li's TV for 120 million Hong Kong dollars, the TV station would be under his name immediately. Unexpectedly, just when the transaction was about to proceed, Huo Yaohua told him that something was wrong.

The Hong Kong government intervened in this transaction and did not agree with Lai's call to sell Lai's TV station to Lin Baicheng. It hoped that Lai's voice would lead to the sale of Lai's TV station to other British-funded institutions or individuals.

Television is an extremely important propaganda channel. There are currently three television stations in Hong Kong. Among them, TVB is in the hands of the Chinese, Jiayi TV is also owned by the Chinese, and only Lai's TV station is controlled by British capital.

The Hong Kong government did not want publicity channels like the TV station to fall into the hands of the Chinese. Therefore, when Jiayi TV was established, the Hong Kong government set multiple conditions for Jiayi TV. This also led to the collapse of Jiayi TV within a few years of its establishment.

It’s not that Jiayi TV is incompetent, it’s that there are inherent limitations. People prefer to watch entertainment TV and programs and are less interested in educational programs. Therefore, no matter how hard Jiayi TV works, it can’t save itself from collapse.

Now, Lai's Voice is planning to sell Lai's TV station, and the target of the sale is Lin Baicheng, a Chinese, so the Hong Kong government will naturally intervene.

When Lin Baicheng learned from Huo Yaohua that the Hong Kong government had intervened, he thought that his acquisition of Lai's TV station had been ruined, and he could only wait a few years before taking over from the Australian consortium. Unexpectedly, Huo Yaohua told him to wait a little longer.

It is still possible to buy shares in Li's Voice.

After all, the UK is a capitalist country. Unless the business transactions are related to the country's important advanced technologies, the government cannot actually stop them. Just like this equity transaction, the Hong Kong government can intervene, or it can advise Li's voice not to sell the shares to

If the Chinese people really want to sell Li's voice, there is nothing the Hong Kong government can do.

Lai's voice has no other industry in Hong Kong except Lai's TV station, so it does not need to take into account the attitude of the Hong Kong government. However, Lai's voice must take into account Downing Street's views, so Lai's voice must also give some face to the Hong Kong government.

Therefore, in the face of the Hong Kong government's intervention and suggestions, Lai's Voice stated that as long as British capital is willing to take over at a price of no less than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, Lai's Voice is willing to sell its shares to British capital.

After all, Lai's Voice also knows that it is difficult to find a Chinese enemy like Lin Baicheng, and it will be difficult to sell it at such a high price if you miss this opportunity. However, for the sake of the Hong Kong government and Downing Street, Li's Voice is willing to sell to

The British capital is also willing to lower the price by 20 million Hong Kong dollars, but any lower price will not work.

Huo Yaohua told Lin Baicheng that Lai's voice was very resolute. Either the Hong Kong government would find British capital to take over 61% of Lai's TV shares at a price of no less than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, or the Hong Kong government would no longer object to this transaction and let Lai's

Husheng sold its shares for HK$120 million.

If possible, Li Shengsheng would like to sell the shares to Lin Baicheng. After all, this can earn an extra 20 million Hong Kong dollars, which is already a lot, and no one will have trouble with money.

The Hong Kong government responded to Li's call to suspend trading for half a month, allowing the Hong Kong government to use the half month to find an institution to take over.

Huo Yaohua reassured Lin Baicheng. He believed that it was unlikely that any British capital would be willing to take over, because the entire Li TV was only worth a little over 100 million Hong Kong dollars in everyone's opinion, and 61% of the shares were not worth that money at all. The premium was too high.

Already.

After the Hong Kong government could not find an institution to take over, it could only accept Li's call and sell the shares to Lin Baicheng. Huo Yaohua asked Lin Baicheng to wait for the good news.

The sudden intervention of the Hong Kong government made Lin Baicheng very depressed, but he had no way to deal with it. He could only hope that the Hong Kong government could not find an agency to take over and leave everything to God's will.

Ignoring Li's TV matters for the time being, there is news that Lin Baicheng has entrusted a headhunting company to find talents for him. Several talents are willing to come and accept Lin Baicheng's interview after knowing the scale and general situation of Lin Baicheng's business.

Of course, Lin Baicheng had read the information of these talents through the headhunting company earlier. He was satisfied with these talents first. Only if he was satisfied first, the headhunting company would introduce Lin Baicheng's general situation to these people and ask them if they wanted to come and accept them.

interview.

Lin Baicheng plans to recruit three talents this time. Considering his current business, three is enough. When the scale of the business becomes larger in the future, he will hire more talents if necessary.

Of these three talents, Lin Baicheng is going to let one of them be responsible for assisting him with the local work in Hong Kong, one with the responsibility of assisting him with the RB work, and one with the responsibility of assisting him with the work in the United States.

After two days of interviews, Lin Baicheng selected three people when he liked the other party and the other party was willing to accept the job.

Haruko Maori, Cheng Yufeng, and Isabella Kent are respectively RB people, natives of Xiangjiang, and Americans.

Haruko Mouri, female, 24 years old, American and Japanese, graduated from RB Kyoto University, and then went to the United States to study for two years. She was selected by a headhunter because she met the requirements.

It stands to reason that a top student like Mouri Haruko will definitely not lack a job when she returns to RB. However, RB's corporate culture determines that it will be difficult for her to enter the senior management of the company. At least she who has just graduated will definitely not be able to do it. Therefore, when a large-scale company

After the company invited her to be the boss's assistant, she decided to go.

As the boss's assistant, if she gets promoted in the future, she will either become an important executive of the head office or the head of a branch, which will save her many years of struggle. Besides, if that doesn't work out, she can still use this company as a

Springboard, as long as she does well enough here, other big companies will definitely want to poach her.

Cheng Yufeng, male, 27 years old, a native of Xiangjiang. After attending college in Xiangjiang, he went to Cambridge University to study for three years. He was already working in London, but his mother's health suddenly deteriorated. He is a filial man.

, so he decided to come back to work in Xiangjiang.

Isabella Kent, female, 25 years old, American, American, graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles. The reason why she is willing to work for Lin Baicheng is for no other reason than that the treatment Lin Baicheng gives her is better than what she can find on her own.

The job pays better.

Isabella Kent's family conditions are average, which can be seen from the fact that she attended a public university. Because of her university studies, she still owed a lot of money, so she now needs to work hard to make money to pay off her debts. Fortunately, she graduated

She is from a well-known university and is very capable, so the debt is no longer a big problem for her now.

However, the whole family supports Isabella to finish college, and Isabella is now obliged to make money to improve the lives of her family, so as long as the company itself has no major problems, she will work for whoever gives her the best treatment.

Work.

Among the three, Haruko Maori and Isabella are both great beauties, but Lin Baicheng is interested in their abilities and has nothing to do with their appearance. If he really wants to find beauties, he will go to the entertainment industry to find them. What he is looking for is abilities.

A strong assistant who can help him with his work instead of looking for vases.
