Rise up Hong Kong! Build a super wealthy Zhuang family

Chapter 71 Li Chaoren announces his acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa

Around 11.50pm.

Zhuang Rongxu came to the conference room of Yangtze River Industrial Group.

The scene was crowded with reporters, no fewer than dozens of reporters arrived, and there were even reporters from foreign newspapers. It can be seen that the content of this conference is very attractive.

In addition to reporters, the chairman of many groups in Xiangjiang was also invited.

Among them is Zhuang Rongxu.

Zhuang Rongxu was a little surprised when Li Chaoren's company invited him to attend this press conference, but he soon figured out that Li Chaoren was building momentum. He wanted to use this conference to allow him to take control of Hutchison Whampoa as soon as possible.

The reason why he invited so many people is to let the whole Hong Kong know that he, Li Chaoren, will officially take over Hutchison and successfully acquire the foreign bank. After the report of the press conference spreads, those who own Hutchison Whampoa shares will take the initiative. Come trade stocks with him.

Let him achieve complete control of Hutchison Whampoa as soon as possible. This is why Li Chaoren held such a large-scale press conference and made it known to the whole city.

"Xu Zai, you're here too."

At this time, a voice came. Zhuang Rongxu turned his head and looked over, and saw that it was Bao Yugang calling to him.

"Sheng Bao and Sheng Chen, you are all here."

"Haha, look here. Almost everyone whose names can be counted in Hong Kong is here. What are we curious about?" Bao Yugang said with a smile.

"Sheng Bao, is Li Chaoren's press conference officially announcing his acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa?" Zhuang Rongxu asked curiously, pretending not to know.

"A press conference can invite so many media and people from other groups, what do you think?" Bao Yugang responded calmly.

"Haha, nephew Zhuang Shi, the announcement of Hutchison's ownership is already certain. If I guess correctly, the purpose of Li Sheng's press conference is to create tension and take the opportunity to announce the buyback of Hutchison shares." Hang Lung next to him Group leader Chen Zengxi also said with a smile.

"Guys, don't mind if I watch the show here." A voice came from behind, and he, Bao Yugang and others all turned their heads and looked back.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that even Sixth Uncle was invited here. It seems that Li Sheng must quickly control He Ji today, but why is he in such a hurry?" Chen Zengxi thought very curiously.

"Yeah, Li Sheng is going to take over Hutchison, one of the four major foreign companies. Why don't I come over and watch the show?" The visitor is none other than TVB's Shao Rifu.

"Uncle Shao, sit down."

"Xu Zai, you should call me Uncle Six outside. This way I look younger."

"Hahaha……."

"Hahaha, Uncle Six, sit down."

"Okay, thank you nephew."

"By the way, Lao Bao, look at this posture, Li Sheng, what are you doing, you seem to be in a hurry?" Shao Rifu also asked in confusion.

"Uncle Six, how would I know?" Bao Yugang replied pretending to be nonchalant.

Zhuang Rongxu next to him had a faint smile on his face, but he was secretly laughing in his heart.

Can Li Chaoren not be in a hurry?

He already knows that someone at Huaqi Bank is secretly competing with him for Hutchison Whampoa. He definitely wants to get 51% of the shares as soon as possible to ensure that Hutchison is his.

However, Zhuang Rongxu knew that it was no longer possible for Li Chaoren to obtain 51% of the shares.

Because he already controls Hutchison, now he has to wait for Weili to lose the bet and wait for the equity in his hands to be officially transferred, then everything will be a foregone conclusion.

So no matter what Li Chaoren does now, Zhuang Rongxu doesn't need to worry at all.

"Brother Six, are you here too?"

"Hey, Brother Zhuang, are you here too?"

"Hello, Uncle Zhuang." Zhuang Rongxu stood up and said hello when he saw the visitor.

There is no way, this is a person that his father also respects. As a younger generation, he must not be rude.

Xiangjiang is a place where people are sophisticated. If he is arrogant and arrogant, it will be difficult for him to become famous. Even if he makes more money in the future, he will only be looked down upon.

The visitor was none other than the watch king Zhuang Jingyan, who had not appeared in public for a long time, and was Li Chaoren's father-in-law.

"Nephew Zhuang Shi is here too, that's great."

"With such a feat in my home city, of course I have to come over to support him, but you were right just now. Judging from the posture at the scene, it can be seen that he seems to be very anxious to announce his sovereignty."

"Brother Zhuang, you don't know the situation?" Chen Zengxi next to him asked curiously.

"Chen Sheng, I really don't know about this." Zhuang Jingyan responded.

While they were talking, Li Chaoren led the management of Cheung Kong Holdings out of the podium.

"Thank you to all the media and distinguished guests for attending the press conference held by Cheung Kong Holdings."

"I believe many people already know the content of this press conference. Yes, here Cheung Kong Holdings officially announces that since Cheung Kong Holdings owns 35.12 shares of Hutchison Whampoa, it has applied to the group to join the board of directors, and I have applied to become the chairman of the board. "

Bang bang bang bang! ! ! !

There were bursts of applause.

After all, after seeing the report in the morning, many people knew that Cheung Kong Holdings was going to take over Hutchison Whampoa.

But after all, it is just a report. If Li Chaoren or Yangtze River Corporation did not make a public announcement for a day, then this matter has not been implemented, and it will become a rumor at most.

Things are different now.

Li Chaoren personally admitted that this means that the matter is true. Of course, such a big news reporter will not let it go. The acquisition of foreign banks by Chinese capital is definitely a big deal in Hong Kong, and this kind of subject matter will definitely sell well.

"Li Sheng, can you tell me that you are sure to become the chairman of Hutchison and confident that you will become the chairman?"

"Li Sheng, have you become the majority shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa with your current 35% stake?"

"Li Sheng, 35% of the shares have not reached absolute control. Does Wei Li, the general manager of Hutchison, support you?"

"Li Sheng, will you continue to increase your stake in Hutchison in the future? Will you increase your stake to more than 49%?"

"Li Sheng, if you own so much equity in Hutchison, have you reached any agreement with HSBC? Can you tell us about it and let us know?"

"Li Sheng, how much money was used to acquire 35% of Hutchison Whampoa's equity?"

"Li Sheng, if you succeed in taking over Hutchison Whampoa, would you like to reveal your new development direction for Hutchison Whampoa in the future?"

A group of reporters excitedly asked Li Chaoren.

"Dear friends from the media, please be quiet. All your questions will be answered one by one today. Can you let the press conference continue for now?"

The on-site staff came over one after another to ward off all the reporters who came around.

"Thank you all friends from the media for your support."

"In addition, as the chairman of Cheung Kong Holdings, I announce that I will issue an offer to all Hutchison Whampoa shareholders to acquire 1,500 shares of Hutchison Whampoa. The price will be HK$25, while stocks last."

"Wow..."

After Li Chaoren announced the purchase price, reporters at the scene were immediately surprised.

After all, the current share price of Hutchison Market is less than HK$20, and Li Chaoren actually paid a 20% premium to acquire it. How could the reporter not be surprised?

Not to mention reporters, even tycoons from other groups in Xiangjiang don't understand why Li Chaoren would do this?

Now that he is confident that he will take over Hutchison and has held a press conference to announce it, the result should be a certainty.

Even if he wants to absolutely control Hutchison Whampoa, when Li Chaoren becomes the chairman of Hutchison Whampoa, he can use other methods to increase his shares.

For example, to expand the development of the group, let shareholders invest funds. Those without funds will dilute their equity, so that they can expand their equity.

In addition, forced financing allows all shareholders to reduce their equity holdings in proportion, and uses the rights of the chairman to recruit their own shareholders, thereby expanding their control.

They didn't believe that Li Chaoren didn't understand these methods, but now Li Chaoren's actions made it impossible for anyone at the scene except Bao Yugang, HSBC Shen Bi, and Zhuang Rongxu to understand why he did this.
