The Industrial Giant Reborn
Chapter 237
"Someone came in? Can you find out who it is?" Chen Zhiwen put down his work and asked.
Nowadays, all the layouts in Hong Kong are basically complete, except for Wharf, which is one of Jardine's current two wings, although it may not be inferior to Jardine in terms of financial resources. , but he has never forced an attack, because the current Jardine is constantly weakening due to blood loss overseas, and he needs to wait for the best time.
"I can't find it. In addition to us, there are suddenly dozens of accounts buying Wharf stocks in the market, and there are often new accounts. This is an obvious early-stage acquisition, but it is much faster than ours. "Zhou Jiayang replied, Xu Jinhong, the general manager of Xinghe Group, was also standing beside him.
"How many Wharf stocks do we have now?" Chen Zhiwen didn't ask any further.
At this time, someone suddenly attacked Wharf, and Li Jiacheng was almost inseparable. Although in this timeline, several golden opportunities of Li Jiacheng were interfered by him, such as intercepting the Saixi Lake project from Swire Group and helping him. Dad took away the MTR Central project, but now there are too many opportunities in Hong Kong real estate. If these few are missing, with Li Jiacheng's ability, he can make up for it from other places.
In particular, he did not get the MTR Central project, which may have led to Li Jiacheng having an extra sum of money in his hands. In addition to the high return income from various investments in the past two years and the overseas bank resources behind him, he has sufficient confidence to It has acquired some powerful British capital, and looking at the British real estate giants in the Hong Kong stock market, Wharf is undoubtedly the most suitable.
Although Hong Kong’s real estate market has recovered for nearly two years, there are still many people who are not optimistic about Wharf’s Harbor City project on the Kowloon Peninsula. If this project fails, then Wharf will never recover from it even if it doesn’t go bankrupt immediately. It’s just Li Jiacheng Obviously not one of many people, he must be very optimistic about the Harbor City project, and besides the Harbor City, Wharf still has a lot of high-quality land that is vacant, which is fatal to the temptation of a real estate giant like Li Jiacheng.
"About 25%. Wharf previously had a private equity increase for Jardine, which diluted some of our shares. However, Wharf followed up with another round of financing in the stock market. We took the opportunity to get 3 points of shares. Now The shares of Wharf controlled by Jardine should be about 18%." Zhou Jiayang replied.
"That is to say, there is no absolute advantage yet." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said. Although he has a large shareholding, the Jardine Department has controlled Wharf for hundreds of years, and all the management is his. Even if he becomes the largest shareholder, he is completely Can be easily excluded.
This is the case with Bao Yugang in history. After more than a year of continuous increase in shares, Jardine holds 20% of the shares and Bao Yugang holds 30%, but Jardine controls the entire board of directors. This situation Under the circumstances, it is possible to turn around unless the shareholders meeting is held to vote to remove the board of directors, but it is obviously difficult. If you want to unite a scattered group, it is possible unless Wharf is like Hutchison in the past, and its performance is so bad that all shareholders are dissatisfied. Although the current Wharf is not doing very well, it is still far away from bankruptcy.
"Yes, according to our original plan, it is to acquire at a very slow pace on weekdays, and wait until Wharf raises funds in the stock market before starting. This kind of operation makes our traces almost invisible, but now this person behind the scenes directly uses A large amount of cash is purchased, and Jardine will probably find out soon." Zhou Jiayang paused and said: "The question is whether we should follow, if we follow, not only Jardine can discover the abnormality earlier. Even bringing this acquirer We will find out, but if we don’t follow suit, Wharf’s stock price will also rise sharply, and after Jardine is alerted, it will be difficult for us to make a move.”
"Stand still, stop the acquisition, and wait until the follow-up situation is confirmed." Chen Zhiwen said.
In fact, waiting for Li Jiacheng to attack Wharf was also one of his expectations, but he remembered that it should have been 1978 in the original history, but now it was a few months earlier, but since Li Jiacheng made a move, let Li Jiacheng and the Jardine Department will play first, and just wait for the follow-up progress.
"Okay, I will immediately arrange for the traders to stop buying stocks." Zhou Jiayang nodded and said.
"Wharf shares do not need to be acquired, but Hong Kong Land is still available. If the funds are insufficient, I will mobilize funds from overseas. I will acquire 10% of Hong Kong's shares before openly confronting Jardine." Chen Zhiwen said.
Today, with the rising real estate market in Hong Kong, the market value of Hong Kong Land is also rising, reaching a level between 5 billion and 6 billion Hong Kong dollars. Considering the premium of the acquisition, it needs at least 600 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire 10% of its shares.
Although the current projects of Hutchison and Galaxy Properties add up to billions of Hong Kong dollars, these are the total value. It is the basic routine of the entire Hong Kong real estate sector to use hundreds of millions of funds to leverage ten times the assets. It is simply impossible to spend three to five billion Hong Kong dollars for other purposes. Besides, the bank is also supervised, and it is not allowed at all. Even the Jardine Department cannot spend such a large amount of funds in a short period of time, otherwise it will not be able to keep Wharf.
And Midea’s current arcade machines are completely sweeping gold around the world with a broom, and a large amount of cash is silently stored in overseas accounts. Although it will have a certain role in the future, it is still a good investment to switch to Landmark stocks. High-quality stocks are themselves Assets that are very easy to liquidate are actually similar to cash.
"Okay, I understand." Zhou Jiayang nodded and said.
In the next few days, after Chen Zhiwen's funds withdrew, there was no significant change in Wharf's stock. Obviously, Li Jiacheng was also trying to avoid being discovered by Jardine Matheson or others. Pay several times the price.
It's just that Chen Zhiwen knows that this matter will be exposed within two or three months. The most fundamental reason for this is that a normal company cannot use a large amount of spare funds for long-term acquisitions. It was also like this in the original history. Theoretically speaking, if Li Jiacheng invests hundreds of millions and buys slowly, it takes two or three years, and there may be a chance to really grab Wharf from Jardine.
But what about the price?
Hundreds of millions of funds, with Li Jiacheng's means, and now in the rising period of real estate, it is no problem to double the profit if it is operated, but it may not be successful if it is placed in Wharf. affect normal development.
Under such circumstances, Li Jiacheng naturally needs to increase the purchase price after obtaining a certain amount of stocks. Even if the stock price rises, as long as there is no loss, he will continue to purchase, and strive to complete the purchase in a short time. Land, with his means, will definitely be able to earn back his capital, and he will also earn a large real estate company with blood. Even if he fails, he still needs to make a quick decision on what to do, and leave even if he loses money. Time One of the highest costs in the real estate market.
It's a pity that there is no if. Li Jiacheng was not successful in his previous life, not because Jardine was strong, but because HSBC intervened. HSBC did not want Li Jiacheng to acquire Wharf. Although Cheung Kong Industrial also has overseas banks behind it, the main battlefield is in Hong Kong. It is also impossible to ignore HSBC, so I can only let it go. After that, he cleverly sold the stock to Bao Yugang, so that Bao Yugang could face Jardine Hehe head-on, and he wanted to take down Hutchison Whampoa, which was in the hands of HSBC at that time, without bloodshed.
Because of his long-term acquisitions, and his own acquisition of Hutchison, Jardine Matheson has increased its shareholding in Wharf, so there will be much fewer stocks in circulation on the market. Now Li Jiacheng may not be able to acquire 20% of his previous life. % of the stock, it will be discovered by Jardine.
Just wait and see how Jardine will deal with it, and make up your own plans when Li Jiacheng retreats. In addition, part of the funds mobilized from overseas accounts are also starting to acquire Hongkong Land’s shares, but because Hongkong Land has not expanded its shares as many times as Wharf’s financing, it needs to slowly control the speed of acquisitions.
Chen Zhiwen was very excited about preparing to take action against this giant in Hong Kong. As long as he defeated the Jardine Department, the current Hong Kong capital market would start to change. The previous Hutchison just took advantage of the acquisition when the other party was about to go bankrupt. , and this time, it will be a real forced merger.
But now it's just preparations. Before the real action, we need to wait until Li Jiacheng is forced to let go and the Jardine Group relaxes.
