Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

Chapter 168 Negotiation 4

Shen Bi and Bao Zixuan were both deep in thought at this time. Shen Bi didn't know how much Bao Zixuan knew. Bao Zixuan wanted Shen Bi to bid first, so that the initiative would be in his hands. Anyway, he is not the one who is anxious now, HSBC The bank cannot afford to delay its external expansion, let alone delay it.

If this matter is not resolved perfectly, HSBC will never be able to develop in the European and American markets unless it gives up.

In the end, Shen Bi was more anxious, although he didn't know how much Bao Zixuan knew. However, HSBC would make money no matter how he sold it, so it might as well be a smooth favor, which would at least show sincerity.

Shen Bi: "Although Bao Xuedi is not in Xiangjiang, he still knows everything about Xiangjiang. Then we don't need to bargain, it's 7 Hong Kong dollars per share. I can choose to get a loan from HSBC, as long as I pay a 20% deposit first. Yes. The remaining 80% can be paid with an HSBC loan."

Bao Zixuan knows that Shen Bi is really sincere this time. The price is 0.1 Hong Kong dollars cheaper than the price paid by Li Chaoren in his previous life. All other conditions are the same. The most important thing is that HSBC did not retain any shares this time. In the future, it will be relative to Hutchison Huangpu is struggling to control it. Although there are loans, the loans are not worth mentioning at all given the strength of Heiyun Group.

Bao Zixuan stretched out his hand and said: "Then we can cooperate as quickly as possible, thank you, senior. After we go to HSBC to complete the formalities, we will hold a press conference there."

Shen Bi also stretched out his hand and shook it with Bao Zixuan and said: "Then do as Brother Bao said. But there is no need to go back to HSBC. We can arrange for the lawyer to do it here. Once the transaction is completed, we will hold a press conference here. ."

In fact, Bao Zixuan is a bit of a villain trying to win over a gentleman. As long as a big boss like Shen Bi agrees, there will be no change. The business credit of a tycoon at this level is very important.

The moment they saw Shen Bi and Bao Zixuan shaking hands, the people in the restaurant who were paying attention to the negotiation between the two knew that the two big bosses must have reached an agreement. There will probably be something good to watch later, and this time there will definitely be news that shocks the whole of Hong Kong.

Bao Zixuan: "Okay, I'll arrange for a lawyer to come over right away. I have an idea, that is, we need to give Sing Tao Daily some color. Otherwise, if we are really easy to bully, we will use Sing Tao Daily as a sacrificial flag."

Shen Bi: "Junior, if you have any good ideas, I've already noticed that Hu Xian's woman is unhappy. HSBC will definitely support her fully this time. However, Hu Xian does not have a loan with HSBC, otherwise I would have taken action long ago."

Bao Zixuan: "Sing Tao Daily has no loans from HSBC and no business dealings with Heiyun. It seems we can't do anything about it, but the newspaper needs subscriptions, advertising, and their employees need housing!"

"We require all companies that cooperate with us not to subscribe to Sing Tao Daily; not to place any advertisements in Sing Tao Daily; and HSBC will not provide loans for Sing Tao Daily employees to buy houses. We are so unreasonable this time, let's see everyone's reaction. Otherwise, no one would take us seriously."

Shen Bi listened to this young man's words and found that it would be really scary if this kid got aggressive. But all these were paid for by HSBC, and Heiyun Group didn't have many cooperative companies in Hong Kong. This guy was using HSBC as a weapon, but this It’s also a way to jump into a trap even though you know it’s a trap.

Shen Bi: "But Mr. Bao, if we really do this, the Hong Kong government will probably accuse us of interfering with press freedom. This is a troublesome matter, and we have to consider it."

Bao Zixuan: "If the Hong Kong government says that we interfere with press freedom, Hu Xian will first file a lawsuit with us. The worst result is to fine both of us a sum of money, but so what! Our two companies are the largest in Hong Kong , are you short of money? If we don’t attack with thunderous means this time, I believe many clowns will come out, making people think that HSBC and Heiyun are not as powerful as they thought. Everyone will step on us, and it will be even more troublesome at that time.”

Shen Bi thought for a while and said: "I will accompany my juniors to play with them and let them know the consequences of offending HSBC."

Bao Zixuan: "We will notify all reporters to come to the Peninsula Hotel soon and let Michael Kadoorie prepare the banquet hall as the main venue for the press conference."

After confirming everything, lawyers from both sides arrived at the Peninsula Hotel. After receiving the notice, He Mingcheng dropped all his work and rushed over as soon as possible. Now Heiyun is his largest client, and he has won many big orders through Heiyun. At present, his firm has more than 30 employees and is the number one law firm in Hong Kong.

Bao Zixuan explained what happened to He Mingcheng, and after hearing that Shen Bi actually sold all the Hutchison Whampoa shares held by HSBC to Bao Zixuan. He Mingcheng's expression was very exciting, and he could put an egg down with his mouth open.

This is Hejia Whampoa, one of the four major foreign banks in Hong Kong. A company that has been established for more than 100 years was sold to Bao Zixuan. It seems that Shen Bi really spent a lot of money to settle this matter.

Everyone is a professional lawyer, and the contract was quickly drawn up according to the requirements of both parties. For HSBC, Puves came with a lawyer. He always wanted to ask Shen Bi why, but he didn't dare to say it after seeing Shen Daban's firm eyes. During this period, Shen Bi was like a god in Hong Kong HSBC. No one dared to question him, not even the general manager Pu Weishi.

The main content of the contract is that Heiyun Group purchased 136 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa held by HSBC at a price of 7 Hong Kong dollars per share. The total price was 952 million Hong Kong dollars, with a down payment of 20%, totaling 200 million Hong Kong dollars. The remaining part was paid in existing shares. The mortgage loan is HK$752 million, with an annual interest rate of 7% and a one-time repayment after five years.

When he asked He Mingcheng to come over, Bao Zixuan also arranged for company personnel to acquire 0.4% of Hutchison Whampoa shares. Now Heiyun Group already holds 49% of Hutchison Whampoa shares, and the acquisition has been completed. If the acquisition continues, then according to Xiangjiang According to the regulations of listed companies, Heiyun will trigger the compulsory acquisition clause. Bao Zixuan can only acquire all Hutchison Whampoa shares and privatize it. It is still difficult with the current cash flow, and it is not necessary.

The acquisition of 49% of the shares has achieved the purpose of holding a company. Now it can be said that Heiyun has the final say in everything in Hutchison Whampoa. If he dares not to do what Bao Zixuan requires, then Wei Li will no longer be able to stay in Hutchison Whampoa. Now Bao Zi Xuan has achieved complete control over Hutchison Whampoa. In fact, in the future, Hong Kong listed companies can fully manage the company as long as they hold 35%. This is also protecting the interests of major shareholders.

The moment Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi signed their names, he knew that he could no longer just develop technology according to his own ideas. Although it conflicted with his business philosophy, when he thought about the future prosperity of Xiangjiang real estate and dock industry, no matter how he operated, As for losses.

Now I have to enter the real estate industry to get a share of the pie. Things are unpredictable. Originally I just wanted to make some money by trading stocks, but I didn't expect to become a shareholder. This is really a twist of fate. Who would have thought that I would be injured!

After the contract was signed, Heiyun and the staff from HSBC met at the Peninsula Hotel to discuss the content and precautions for the afternoon press conference. During the period, they had another meal here to deepen their impressions of each other. Now let’s get to know each other better. , we will become more familiar with each other when we cooperate in the future.

Since Shen Bi is giving face like this, Bao Zixuan will have to lean towards HSBC for many of its businesses. From now on, all the capital transactions of Hutchison Whampoa will be handled by HSBC, and Heiyun Group will also lean towards HSBC for loans.

Although this is the first time that Chinese capital has successfully acquired a British-owned foreign bank, it can be said to be very meaningful in Hong Kong. But who would have thought that the whole process took less than an hour between Shen Bi and Bao Zixuan!

This acquisition was regarded as a classic by countless business schools in later generations. Bao Zixuan knew that he only borrowed Li Chaoren's vision from his previous life. This time, Li Chaoren was intercepted in advance, so that he could cooperate well on the Tianshuiwei project, which could be considered as compensation. However, Bao Zixuan is also worried that Li Chaoren will not buy it. After all, he has acquired the company he has been planning for so long. This section is difficult to solve, so we can only take one step at a time. It is better to prepare for the press conference! The rest will be finished later. Let’s talk about this later.
