The Industrial Giant Reborn

"Two days, are you sure?" A member of the board of directors said: "He Huang didn't just propose an acquisition agreement to us. If they first acquire enough shares in the stock market, then this acquisition agreement will be invalidated." , what will we do with our losses then?"

"Then what do you want?" William Kane asked with a dark face. In fact, he also knew that in the face of absolute strength, there was nothing he could do. He Huang gave too much money. If it wasn't for Qizhou Yingni's own company, he might even want to sell the stocks in his hand. There is no way to deal with the real conspiracy, unless you really have a lot of money in your hands.

"It's very simple. If you want us to keep the stock, you can, but you must first sign an agreement with us. If the stock in our hands cannot be taken away by the time, then you have to give us enough price difference to avoid us Loss."

"Lawrence, what dream are you dreaming about? I am taking all the risks?" William Kane almost gasped in anger.

"Then if we agreed to you, we missed the opportunity to sell the stock at a high price, who will be responsible for the loss?" Lawrence leaned back on the seat and turned around. Although he was a little shorter, he still had a contemptuous look in his eyes.

"It's just that you want to sell stocks at a high price?" William Kane said coldly.

"No." Lawrence smiled and shook his head and said, "My stock has been sold at a high price."

"What? Then why are you here to join in the fun?" William Kane twitched his brows. Although he knew that the war with Huang was coming aggressively this time, he didn't expect that two directors had already been bought out of a board of directors with only 10 members. It's hard to say.

"It's just a warning to everyone about the risks. Don't rush me away. I'll leave right away." Lawrence said calmly, "Everyone, we have been working together for ten years. You can decide this opportunity yourself. I made it clear that we will not privatize Qizhou Yingni, so the acquisition of 49.9% is their goal. If you don’t sell your shares now, you may lose your chance.”

"Since it can be bought in the stock market, why buy our stocks at a higher price?" Another person asked.

"Because of time, the acquisition from everyone can quickly complete the purpose of Hutchison Huang, and the public acquisition in the stock market also requires a certain amount of securities fees. In short, the current situation is like this. What you want to do, you can figure it out. I have already made a move In exchange for the stocks in his hands, Hutchison also promised to trade the real estate of its largest Whampoa Garden project, if you talk to Hehuang earlier, you may also be able to take the Whampoa Garden house." Lawrence said with a light smile.

"The house in Huangpu Garden?" A group of people immediately ignored William Kane who was standing in the front and discussed with each other.

In fact, the recent real estate market in Hong Kong has started to rise sharply. If you want to buy a house, especially in a place with a better location, you need to queue up, lottery or even buy a house from scalpers. Whampoa Garden is located near the harbor and has direct access to Hutchison also built a large commercial plaza next to Whampoa Garden for the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel and the Star Ferry station on Hong Kong Island. There are also restaurants, restaurants and supermarkets inside, which is very convenient for people to live in.

Of course everyone here doesn’t care about living there, because everyone is rich, and living in a villa or something must be much more comfortable than this kind of community. What everyone cares about is the investment value. This kind of location is good and the living comfort is high. The house will definitely be more valuable in the future, and the rate of return on investment will be higher. Under normal circumstances, it is not a problem for them to buy one or two sets of this type of property, but it will be difficult if the number is large.

"Okay, I'm not suitable to stay here anymore. You can decide for yourself." After finishing speaking, Lawrence picked up a bottle of mineral water on the table and left with a smile, leaving behind a very embarrassed William Kane.

"William, I remembered that my company still has something to do, so I'm leaving first." Without giving William Kane a chance to ask back, the person closest to the door immediately turned and left. Anyway, once the stock is sold, everyone is fine, and naturally there is no need to give face .

"Me too." The other two stood up and left.

After a while, there were only two people sitting at the scene, which seemed a little awkward, maybe they didn't think clearly about what to do?

"Oh..." William Kane sat down and couldn't say anything. He knew that the general situation was over. He was a long-running company, so how could he have the capital to fight against big companies like Hutchison? Impossible to find.

On September 30, Hutchison Headquarters:

Zhou Jiayang walked into Chen Zhiwen's office with a stack of documents, and said: "Sheng Chen, we have successfully acquired 49.9% of the shares of Qizhou Yingni and became the largest shareholder. I have already informed the current director of Qizhou Yingni Chairman William Kane, he has indicated that he will resign voluntarily, but he hopes to transfer his shares to us."

"That won't work. Once we accept his shares, we will trigger the acquisition invitation. It's unnecessary." Chen Zhiwen shook his head and said, "Let him hold it for himself. He can sell it to other people if he wants to, but we don't want it."

"Chen Sheng, why is this? The acquisition cost of Qizhou Yingni is not high, and we can spend tens of millions more for privatization, so that it will be much more convenient to deal with the 800,000-square-foot land in Hung Hom in the future." The Zhou family Yang asked curiously, this didn't seem like the style of his boss before.

"You are right. Under normal circumstances, I would privatize, but not now. From the perspective of investment income, privatizing Qizhou Yingni is not a problem at all, and tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars is not a problem for us. What, but the problem is, if we continue to privatize Qizhou Yingni, it may send a signal to the market, that is, as long as the companies I buy will be privatized, this is the real trouble." Chen Zhiwen said.

"Chen Sheng, are you worried that we will encounter this problem when we acquire Wharf in the future?" Zhou Jiayang quickly understood what the boss meant.

"Yes, if when Wharf acquires, everyone thinks that even if I get 49.9% of the shares, I will be privatized after controlling Wharf. That will be the real trouble, and it will even affect the success of our acquisition of Wharf. Rate." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

The acquisition of Hutchison was privatized before, and Hutchison later privatized the two subsidiaries of Watsons and Whampoa Group. This is very different from many previous commercial mergers and acquisitions. Many people in the market believe that this is Chen Zhiwen's personal Style, preference for privatization of acquired assets.

Once this style is recognized by market shareholders, when the next acquisition war breaks out, many people will not sell their stocks, but will wait for the privatization after the acquisition. That will be a disastrous result. Compared with the acquisition of Wharf Now, the current Qizhou Yingni is just a small game, and Chen Zhiwen just wants to take this opportunity to give the market a different signal.

"Then we will develop the land in Hung Hom in the name of a listed company? But in this way, Qizhou Yingni can't afford the funds for industrial transfer." Zhou Jiayang frowned and said, "Unless we lend money to Qizhou Zhouyingni, or a joint venture to develop this land.”

"No, at the price of industrial land, let Hutchison buy it normally." Chen Zhiwen shook his head and said.
