Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 98 Assistants’ Suggestions

"Do you have any questions or suggestions about these properties under my name?"

After listening to the reports of the three people, Lin Baicheng asked Cheng Yufeng, Maori Haruko, and Isabella. He asked them to be assistants. In addition to assisting him in managing the company, he also meant to treat them as a think tank.

.

Although Lin Baicheng knows the general trend of future development, it is not omnipotent, unless he buys a house and lives there, which is enough, then he doesn't have to do anything.

Of course Cheng Yufeng, Maori Haruko and Isabella have questions to ask and some ideas, otherwise they would not be able to demonstrate their abilities.

The three of them looked at each other, and Cheng Yufeng was the first to speak up: "Mr. Lin, I would like to ask, you hold stocks in three companies: Wharf, Hutchison Whampoa, and Cangjiang Industrial. Why is that? If you

If you want to acquire a certain company, you should go all out to buy that company’s stock.”

Lin Baicheng was not prepared to hide this from the three of them, so he explained: "At the beginning, I actually wanted to acquire the Wharf company. I originally wanted to borrow more funds from Goldman Sachs for the acquisition, but I didn't expect that Cangjiang

Li Jiacheng, who was in the industry, also took a fancy to this company and secretly bought shares of Wharf, which led to my failure before the acquisition started. However, I was not prepared to give up the acquisition, so I still held some shares of Wharf."

"As for Hutchison Whampoa, I also want to acquire this company, but it is a bit difficult to acquire this company. Its controlling shareholder, the Qi Dezun family, holds about 20% of the shares, and HSBC also holds about 20% of the shares. If

Without buying the shares of HSBC, it is impossible to acquire the company. Therefore, in addition to the acquisition thought, I bought the shares of this company because I think the market value of this company is undervalued, so I have to sit back and wait.

The thought of appreciation is there.”

"The last Cangjiang Industrial is Li Jiacheng's company. Li Jiacheng holds about 10% of the shares of Wharf. I intend to secretly acquire the shares of Cangjiang Industrial, threaten his controlling interest in the company, and start a fight with Li Jiacheng.

In exchange, I exchanged the Wharf shares from him."

"Mr. Lin, if that's the case, I don't think you need to hold Hutchison Whampoa's shares for the time being. The total market value of this company is nearly 3 billion Hong Kong dollars. With your current assets, it is difficult to acquire it. In this case, you might as well

Go all out to win over the Wharf company."

After listening to what Lin Baicheng said, Cheng Yufeng gave some suggestions.

Haruko Maori nodded and said in agreement: "Chairman, for you, a listed company under your control is more important than you holding shares in two companies but having no control over it."

Isabella also said: "BOSS, no matter which of the two companies you use to buy Hutchison Whampoa stocks is used on Wharf or Cangjiang Industrial, it can accelerate your acquisition of Wharf.

time."

"A thousand birds in the forest is worse than a bird in the hand!"

After listening to the words of the three of them, Lin Baicheng couldn't help but feel moved. This is true. He was too greedy. He wanted to acquire both Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa. He didn't even think about how much money he had now and how long he had to wait.

How long will it take to have enough funds to acquire two companies?

Instead of failing to acquire both companies, it is better to go all out to acquire the Wharf company and take control of it. As for Hutchison Whampoa, if it is not acquired, it will not be too late to acquire it after he has more funds.

"Okay, then sell Hutchison Whampoa's shares first, and the funds will be used to acquire Cangjiang Industrial's shares."

"After the last confrontation with Wharf, Jardine Matheson may be more sensitive to changes in Wharf's stock price. It is not a good time to make a large purchase. I think it is better to wait until I get the shares from Li Jiacheng before buying."

, what do you think?"

In this regard, Cheng Yufeng, Maori Haruko and Isabella had no objection.

Isabella even said: "BOSS, you can ask someone to check whether any institution holds a large number of shares in these two companies. If so, we can buy the shares from the institution at a premium. As long as the contract is signed,

You don’t have to worry about the institution exposing the transaction.”

Hearing this, Lin Baicheng looked at Cheng Yufeng: "Yufeng, ask someone to investigate this matter. But remember, don't expose our existence until our purpose is achieved."

Cheng Yufeng nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I know what to do."

"Is there anything else you would like to ask or suggest?"

Lin Baicheng looked at the three of them. Sure enough, the assistant team was not hired in vain. The suggestion just now was very good.

Haruko Maori said: "Chairman, from a business management point of view, it is not appropriate for you to use the game company's shares as collateral for a loan of US$100 million and use five times the leverage to do long gold futures. Galaxy Games is a high-quality company.

Going long gold futures with a share loan from this company is too risky.”

"Being long in gold futures will not change. I judge that the inflation rate in the United States and Western countries will rise in the next few years, especially the debt ratio in the United States will continue to increase, so the price of gold will be supported higher. This is the future

A major trend for several years.”

Lin Baicheng shook his head. Being reborn, he knew best that the past few years had been a bull market for gold, so the fact that he was long gold futures would not change.

Cheng Yufeng and Isabella originally wanted to say this, but after seeing Lin Baicheng's attitude, they stopped mentioning it.

Isabella turned and said: "BOSS, although I don't understand futures investment, my friend told me that 200 US dollars per ounce will be the pressure level of gold in the short term, and it will be difficult to break through. Therefore, when the gold price is close to 200 US dollars per ounce,

When the gold price is in the ounce range, you can sell long futures appropriately and wait until the price of gold falls back before buying it back again. You can make more profits by doing this short-term difference."

"Where does your friend work? How is his ability?" Lin Baicheng asked.

Isabella immediately shook her head after hearing this: "BOSS, if you want to poach her, you will be disappointed. She works at Merrill Lynch and currently controls US$100 million in investment funds."

"It seems that he is very capable."

Lin Baicheng was a little surprised, and then said: "If there is a chance in the future, I would like to meet her. As for what you said about short-term trading, forget it. I am more optimistic about the long-term growth of gold, and would rather not do short-term trading than go short."

Lin Baicheng had never thought about asking professional investors to do short-term trading for him, but then he thought that people on Wall Street were not omnipotent, and it was not impossible for the other party to be short-term. What if he was really short-term when making short-term trading?

He had to vomit blood.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng would rather make less profit from short-term trading than have a tragedy like a shortfall happen.

After that, Cheng Yufeng, Maori Haruko and Isabella did not make any other suggestions. Instead, they asked Lin Baicheng about the development direction of all companies in 1978, so that they could have a clear idea and provide better assistance.

Lin Baicheng.
