The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang
Chapter 337 Textile Melee, HSBC Director, Charity Fund (7K chapter, please subscribe~)
Due to the market conditions of the denim market, it does not have much impact on ordinary people in Xiangjiang, so not many people pay attention to this matter.
More attention is paid to financial professionals and practitioners in the same industry.
Originally, everyone thought that this was a close match at this time.
Although Jiahu Textile is now the largest textile factory in Xiangjiang, textile factories such as Tianma Textile are not vegetarians. When the other dozen textile factories unite, it is still very difficult for Jiahu Textile to resist.
Then the two sides fought a big price war. The people of Tianma Textile Factory dropped to ten percent first, and then Jiahu Textile kept up, and then Tianma Textile Factory dropped 12 percent, and Jiahu Textile also kept up.
Tianma Textile had no choice but to continue to decline, but Jiahu Textile quickly caught up, and soon Liu Yinsheng and others discovered that no matter how many percentage points they dropped, Jiahu Textile could always be the first time Just keep up.
Who is the happiest with such a price cut?
Naturally, it is those European and American buyers. There were still some buyers who took a wait-and-see attitude, but as Hong Kong Jiangnan Textile joined in the price cuts, those European and American buyers could no longer sit still and began to enter the market frantically. purchase.
Everyone understands that Jiahu Textile is competing for the market with textile factories headed by Nanfeng Textile and Tianma Textile!
On the contrary, Nanhai Textile, which used to be the number one in Xiangjiang's textile industry, remained silent.
In fact, Nanhai Textile has no movement in the textile industry. In other industries, Nanhai Textile has also made movement.
Many stockholders soon noticed one thing. Chu Huan's listed company Huaren Real Estate and a real estate company named Nanhai Real Estate jointly formed a real estate company named Huahai Real Estate.
The company didn't have any official news, it just announced that it would take property rent collection as its main business. After investigation by interested people, it was found out that this Nanhai Real Estate was actually a real estate company founded by Tang Jiqian, the chairman of Nanhai Textile.
On that day, the real estate business that Chu Huan suggested to Tang Jiqian was not the traditional real estate development or commercial real estate business in Xiangjiang, but the acquisition of newly completed properties on the market, which were used to collect rent or to resell when housing prices rose. Sell it to earn a profit in the middle.
In the future, the house prices in Xiangjiang will be ranked among the top three in the world, and real estate with a thousand square feet is called a luxury house, and the price of such a house will be more than ten million.
Although Chu Huan does not need to keep the house for so many years, it is good to buy some houses to collect rent. After all, Xiangjiang also has demolition. Good deal.
Even if you keep it in your own hands, waiting for appreciation is also a good choice.
This is the same as some chronological texts. If you don't hoard some real estate when you are reborn in your hometown in the 1970s and 1980s, it will always feel like you have been reborn in vain.
As for the cooperation with Nanhai Textile, it wasn't that Chu Huan brought the Tang family on purpose.
Fortunately, Tang Jiqian is also very optimistic about Xiangjiang's real estate industry, and Chu Huan, who is known as the person who has the title of "turning stone into gold", joins in. Tang Jiqian just thought about it and agreed to cooperate with Chu Huan.
1975 was the time when the real estate prices in Xiangjiang were the lowest in the next few years, and the next round of stock market crashes would come when the prices fell.
This is the right time to start!
Therefore, after negotiation between the two parties, Huaren Real Estate invested 70 million Hong Kong dollars, and Nanhai Real Estate invested 30 million Hong Kong dollars. The two parties jointly established Huahai Real Estate to acquire new properties launched in Xiangjiang in the next two years!
However, after everyone knew about this matter, they didn't pay much attention to it. They were more concerned about the infighting in the Xiangjiang textile industry!
The joining of Nanfeng Textile made everyone think that the balance of victory was towards the alliance of Nanfeng Textile and Tianma Textile and other textile factories.
Tang Yunian came to Jiahu Building that day, and after chatting with Chu Huan about Huahai Real Estate, he also talked about this matter.
"A Huan, it's difficult for you now. Nanfeng Textile has also joined in. It seems that these people are determined to carve up your Jiahu Textile's market share!"
Chu Huan leaned on his office chair, held a can of Coke in his hand, and said with a smile: "The joining of Nanfeng Textile just looks scary, but in fact, no matter how many people each party joins now, In the end, it was still a price war.”
Tang Yunian was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Chu Huan to say that, but after thinking about it, it was true, after thinking about it, Tang Yunian couldn't understand it.
"Since this is the case, why does Nanfeng Textile join in? Chen Tinghua has always wanted to enter the real estate industry. Now is the time for him to spend money. Isn't this just using his own money to pay for it?"
Chu Huan sneered, and said: "Of course someone promised him benefits. In fact, even if they don't want to join in, it won't work. Some time ago, I heard that Nanfeng Textile bought a batch of new equipment for the purpose of increasing Their output just caught up with the denim price war at this time, if they don’t join, there will be no orders, and if they join, they may get orders, although they earn less, at least they can maintain a balance of payments!”
Tang Yunian pondered: "That is to maintain the balance of payments, and now the price of both of you has dropped to 15 percent, which is not profitable at all!"
Chu Huan said indifferently: "There is still a little room for profit. When those textile factories unite, they must reduce the price of raw materials, but if they continue to reduce, they will have no profit. Not only will they have no profit, they will even lose money. Already!"
"Why did they do this when they knew it would be a lose-lose situation!" Tang Yunian exclaimed.
Chu Huan chuckled lightly, and said, "That's because you Nanhai Textiles didn't participate in it. If you did, you wouldn't see it so clearly. Wealth touches people's hearts!"
The market share of Jiahu Textile is too attractive. Now that the battle has come to this point, it can be said that both the enemy and us who participated in the war have already killed each other. Everyone wants to kill the other party and then hold the other party's hands. At the same time, after experiencing this great war, Xiangjiang's textile industry is bound to usher in a division of interests that will change the pattern.
So even if they lose money at this time, they will admit it!
This kind of behavior is actually a bit similar to the taxi-hailing war in later generations. Both sides have invested a lot of money regardless of the consequences at this time, in order to have the right to speak in the market in the future, and at that time all lost profits will be recovered!
Tang Yunian smiled wryly, and said, "I just feel that if this internal conflict continues, it will be the buyers who will get the best deal in the end."
"The wool comes from the sheep, don't worry, this battle will definitely not be what you think!" Chu Huan said firmly.
Hearing what Chu Huan said, Tang Yunian stopped worrying about this matter.
As Chu Huan said, everyone was crazy about killing. This is a war without gunpowder, but many people understand that if they lose, what they will face will be an abyss.
Soon, more and more people began to pay attention to this battle, and more newspapers began to report on it.
"Cowboy battle, stand or lie down!" - "True Paper"!
"True Pao" took the lead in reporting on this incident. First, "True Pao" described the market price of Xiangjiang denim before the war, then reported the current price of denim, and finally described the production cost of denim.
"Obviously, the two sides have already started to lose money at this time, but the battle is not over. Just when the reporter is writing this report, the textile mills headed by Nanfeng Textile and Tianma Textile have already lowered their prices. 18 percentage points, which means that every order they receive next will lose money, the more they receive, the more they will lose, and Jiahu Textile has also dropped by 18 percentage points as always, that is to say They still haven't won yet.
The reporter of this newspaper tried to interview the heads of various textile factories, but did not get a response. We don’t know why they fought this battle, but what is certain is that there is no winner in this war. If you have to find a victory In the case of buyers, it can only be said to be those buyers in Europe and the United States.
At this moment, almost 80% of European and American buyers have gathered in Xiangjiang. They are waiting, waiting for the end of this battle. Then they can get denim at the lowest price in history. At that time, they will be The ultimate winner of this battle."
With the report of this incident by "Zhenbao", the price dispute of denim quickly detonated the whole Xiangjiang.
As stated in the report, many people cannot understand why this war was launched.
Countless media reporters flocked to the major textile factories, wanting to release some exclusive news, but like the reporters of "True Paper", they did not get any response.
But soon, when they learned that the two sides had lowered the price by 20 percent, everyone knew that Xiangjiang's textile industry was crazy.
'What is so crazy about? ’--"Oriental Daily"
'There are no victors in this war! ’--"Sing Tao Daily"
Smith was sitting in his room at the Peninsula Hotel, looking at the English newspaper in his hand, and couldn't help laughing brightly.
He never thought that he would stay in Xiangjiang for such a long time. Before coming, he thought that he would only stay in Xiangjiang for a week at most, but he didn't expect that it has been two weeks now, and he doesn't want to leave at all. Let's see how far this price war in their favor will continue.
But no matter what, the company behind him has already made a profit at this time, and it has made a lot of money!
"Don't end, preferably never end!"
Although Smith knew that this was impossible, he still prayed silently in his heart.
But obviously, his prayer did not come true. After the price of denim dropped by 20 percent, Nanfeng Textile and Tianma Textile did not move any more. Instead, each factory dispatched its most capable sales manager. , and began to contact European and American buyers who have already arrived in Xiangjiang.
Of course, there are also people from Jiahu Textile, but the people from Jiahu Textile are not very active.
"This Chu Huan is too crazy, isn't he?" Feng Guojing looked at the newspaper in his hand and couldn't help talking to Feng Hanzhu.
Feng Hanzhu also held a newspaper in his hand. Although it was a different newspaper, the content he read was the same.
"It's red-eyed, everyone is red-eyed, I really don't know how many textile factories will be left in Xiangjiang's textile industry after this battle!"
Feng Hanzhu put the newspaper in his hand on the table, rubbed his eyebrows, and sighed.
Feng Guolun said from the side: "It is impossible for this matter to be resolved, but I think the Hong Kong government should take action soon, right?"
The textile industry has always been one of the important industries in Hong Kong's export trade. Jiahu Textile, Nanfeng Textile, Tianma Textile and other textile factories are fighting to death like this. It is impossible for the Hong Kong government to sit idly by.
Feng Hanzhu shook his head and said, "The Hong Kong government will definitely come forward, but it's unknown how effective it will be!"
Feng Guojing and Feng Guolun looked at Feng Hanzhu at the same time, failing to understand Feng Hanzhu's meaning.
Feng Hanzhu said with a wry smile: "Let's not talk about the grand scale of this price reduction. Basically, all the textile factories in Xiangjiang have participated. Just talking about the people behind these two forces is not something that the Hong Kong government can do if they want to persuade them." Advised."
Chu Huan, in Xiangjiang, tens of thousands of people are eating directly with him. This means that tens of thousands of families are eating with Chu Huan. Such influence, even in the current environment, the Hong Kong government must also take into account Chu Huan’s influence force.
Let alone HSBC, after all, this is a bank with the title of central bank in Xiangjiang!
After a moment of silence, Feng Hanzhu asked Feng Guolun, "How about our company's order?"
Li \u0026 Fung Group also has denim import and export business.
In Xiangjiang, not all textile mills have the strength to directly contact European and American merchants. Except for those few powerful and large-scale textile mills, a larger part of the textile mills rely on trading companies like Li \u0026 Fung Group for their livelihoods. .
Feng Guolun said helplessly: "All orders have stopped, and every buyer is watching when this denim price war will end!"
Although Feng Hanzhu had already guessed such a result, he was still a little helpless when he heard Feng Guolun say so.
"Hurry up and contact our customers. In my opinion, this price should not be lowered anymore. If it is lowered, these people will really eat dirt!"
Feng Guolun asked tentatively: "Daddy, Chu Huan is so rich, those textile factories are backed by HSBC, but Chu Huan is alone, such a loss, as long as he starts to place orders, the loss of Jiahu Textile will be reduced." At least hundreds of millions!"
Feng Hanzhu smiled wryly, and said, "Does Chu Huan still have cash? I don't know how much cash he has? Also, let me tell you something. According to the information I got, Chu Huan took a loan from Standard Chartered Bank in the name of Jiahu Textile. 150 million Hong Kong dollars should be used to prepare for this matter!"
150 million Hong Kong dollars! ?
Feng Guojing and Feng Guolun were a little stunned. They didn't expect Chu Huan to borrow 150 million Hong Kong dollars for this matter.
But then the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, because Chu Huan took out the loan, yes, it was because of Chu Huan's loan.
Before this, especially when Chu Huan successively acquired Golden Harvest, China Real Estate, China Entertainment and paid the final payment for the Golden Gate Building last year, everyone was guessing how much cash Chu Huan had.
In fact, at that time, everyone was not worried about how much cash Chu Huan had, but worried that everyone didn't know how much cash Chu Huan had in his hands.
Now I can finally be sure of one thing, that is, Chu Huan has a certain amount of cash in his hand, and it is good to have a certain amount, so that everyone will not have to worry so much.
Feng Guojing asked Feng Hanzhu curiously: "Daddy, it stands to reason that such things should be kept secret, how did you know?"
Feng Hanzhu chuckled, and said, "It was the bosses of the textile factories who told me. They said that Shen Bi told them about this matter, so the credibility of the matter should still be very high!"
Hearing that it was Shen Bi who revealed the news, the two brothers Feng Guojing and Feng Guolun had nothing to doubt.
Feng Guojing smiled and said: "It seems that Chu Huan put a lot of pressure on them, otherwise, Shen Bi would not have revealed this matter to them."
Feng Guolun also said: "I'm afraid this is to boost their morale!"
Feng Hanzhu said calmly: "That's Chu Huan, do you think it's someone else?"
The two brothers couldn't help feeling helpless after thinking about it, yes, it was because the other party was Chu Huan that they were so nervous, and even Shen Bi had to come up with this news to cheer them up. It's time to raise the white flag!
"Pay attention to this battle. Although we have sent raw materials to Chu Huan now, it is not certain who will win this matter. Be prepared!"
After Feng Hanzhu paused for a moment, he ordered: "Guo Lun, go and contact the people from Nanfeng Textile and Tianma Textile, and tell them that we have some orders for denim, and see if they are interested!"
The end of this battle will be at the cost of one side withdrawing from the denim market, and Feng Hanzhu naturally understands this.
The two brothers Feng Guojing and Feng Guolun nodded. This matter is indeed very important to them.
Before, they were sure that Chu Huan would win this time, so Feng Guojing approached Chu Huan, wanting to give them help.
But now that the battle between the two sides is getting more and more fierce, and the battle situation is becoming more and more uncertain, they naturally have to make two-handed preparations, and diversification of investment is the kingly way.
This kind of thing is not surprising in the business circle of Xiangjiang. He Dong, the richest man in Xiangjiang, did this kind of thing at the earliest time, but what he invested was not business, but war.
When He Dong made his fortune, it was the time when the military forces in his hometown were fighting. At that time, He Dong used money to support several military forces on the separatist side. Even the one in the Northeast took He Dong's money.
Even now when the head of the He family joined the army, he joined the Northeast first.
Now Feng Hanzhu is just doing what his predecessors in the business world are doing.
Xiangjiang Royal Golf Course!
Chu Huan and HSBC's Daban Sha Ya are playing golf on the golf course at this time, as for the life and death outside, they don't seem to care about it.
"Mr. Chu, did you let me pass that ball just now?"
Sha Ya was very happy to preach at this time.
Chu Huan smiled wryly, and said, "Mr. Taiban, please stop teasing me. It's okay for me to play golf, but if I want to compete with a master like you, to be honest, I have a good mental quality." , otherwise, I won’t play with you at all.”
After hearing this, Sha Ya laughed, and said, "Mr. Chu is too modest. Now that your business is on the right track, you should spare some time to practice your golf skills!"
Chu Huan shrugged his shoulders and said, "If Mr. Daban is willing to teach you some skills, I'm sure I'd like to learn them!"
Sha Ya smiled, picked up a golf ball on the ground, and the two walked forward side by side, "Mr. Chu, I wonder if Mr. Chu is interested in cooperating with you on something?"
Chu Huan smiled and said, "Mr. Daban speaks up in person, no matter what it is, I definitely have no objection!"
Hearing Chu Huan's answer, Sha Ya naturally became happier and said with a smile, "It's not a big deal, I just want to see if Director Chu is interested in becoming a director of our HSBC board of directors!?"
To become a director of HSBC's board of directors, you don't actually need to hold many shares in HSBC. After several generations of development, HSBC is already a public listed company in Xiangjiang at this time, and there are no major shareholders, so HSBC's Although Taipan doesn't have many shares in HSBC, he has absolute rights.
The directors of HSBC are more like a status symbol. For example, Bao Yugang and Jian Yueqiang are the directors of HSBC, but the HSBC shares they hold are estimated to be less than 0.1%!
At this time, Chu Huan's influence in Xiangjiang is naturally qualified to become a director of HSBC.
Chu Huan understands that this is Sha Ya's compensation for him. Shen Bi has done so many things, but there is still no result. Chu Huan even transferred the black and white video business to Standard Chartered in a fit of anger, and still borrowed 1.5 from Standard Chartered Bank. billion Hong Kong dollars.
Since Sha Ya followed Roy Bentley's suggestion and wanted to continue to win over Chu Huan, she naturally had to make some representations on this matter.
The absorption of Chu Huan as a director of HSBC was Sha Ya's compensation.
"If I can become a director of HSBC, I will be very happy, but won't this matter embarrass Mr. Taipan?"
Chu Huan asked Sha Ya.
Although neither side mentioned Shen Bi, it is undeniable that as the general manager of HSBC, Shen Bi still has great power.
Sha Ya raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't know if Chu Huan brought it up unintentionally, or if she meant to sow discord, but she still smiled and said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. President Chu's strength in Xiangjiang is obvious to all. We at HSBC have always Based on the principle of helping businessmen in various industries in Hong Kong to go on a more successful path, if Director Chu can become a director of our HSBC, I believe that the entire HSBC will welcome Director Chu very much!"
Chu Huan said with a smile: "Since Mr. Taiban has said so, I naturally have no problems. Mr. Taipan can ask Roy to tell me what procedures are required to become a director of HSBC!"
Sha Ya laughed and said, "No problem!"
After the two fought for a while, Chu Huan said to Sha Ya: "Mr. Taiban, actually, I personally have something I want to ask Mr. Taipan!"
Sha Ya looked at Chu Huan with a smile. He thought that Chu Huan would tell him about denim. Although Chu Huan had already borrowed 150 million Hong Kong dollars from Standard Chartered Bank, the amount of money was not a small amount after all. He thought This money Chuhuan wanted more to have a deterrent effect, expressing that he was willing to continue to fight against Shen Bi because of this matter.
But I don't really want to lose the 150 million.
Now that Chu Huan asked her to ask for something, Sha Ya thought that Chu Huan should be talking about it.
"If Director Chu has anything to say, just say it. If I can do it, there will definitely be no problem."
Chu Huan said with a smile: "It would be great if this is the case. The thing is like this. I want to set up a charity fund in my own name. Every year, I will do my best to cooperate with the various publicity activities of the Hong Kong government. My personal reputation in Xiangjiang is limited, so I hope to cooperate with HSBC, of course, I am personally responsible for the funds of the charity fund, but the operation of the fund will trouble HSBC."
Sha Ya really couldn't figure out what Chu Huan meant this time. She thought he was going to mention Shen Bi's matter to her this time, but she actually mentioned the charity fund to herself.
This is the same as inviting Chu Huan to become a director of HSBC just now. If they don’t need HSBC Chu funds, what they get from HSBC is reputation. The operation of the funds will be handed over to them HSBC.
Sha Ya asked Chu Huan curiously: "I don't know how much money Director Chu plans to inject into this charity fund every year?"
Chu Huan laughed and said, "Ten million!"
Ten million per year is not a small amount. After hearing this figure, Sha Ya couldn't understand why Chu Huan did this.
Of course, he couldn't understand. The real purpose of this matter is actually only known to Jian Yueqiang. Before Chu Huan asked Jian Yueqiang for help, he prepared a wedding surprise for Cao Yunshang, but Chu Huan's surprise was so surprising. After Lihao, MacLehose was also a little embarrassed.
In the end, Jian Yueqiang reminded Chu Huan that if he wanted to accomplish this, he had to have more social popularity, and the fastest way to this social popularity was naturally to donate money!
After receiving Jian Yueqiang's reminder, Chu Huan approached Liang Risi of Jiaku Consulting Company and asked about the way to donate. In the end, Liang Risi's suggestion was to set up his own charity fund.
However, this charitable fund, Chu Huan, would definitely not be a charitable fund that would be used as a means of tax avoidance by rich people in North America. It was just a charitable fund that Chu Huan needed to achieve his own goals.
As for handing it over to HSBC, Chu Huan doesn't have to worry. Although the money is handed over to HSBC, and HSBC will use the money in the charity fund to generate money through its own operations, the financial situation still needs to be reported to Chu Huan. Most importantly, Chu Huan also has the right to suspend the cooperation with HSBC.
Since she couldn't figure out what Chu Huan meant, but she was sure that this matter would not do any harm to HSBC, Sha Ya quickly agreed to Chu Huan's request!
