We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

The Kadoorie family is the actual controlling shareholder of China Light and Power. Over the years, relying on this golden goose, the Kadoorie family has lived very comfortably in Hong Kong.

Moreover, the Kadoorie family has always been very low-key. Although their wealth completely qualifies them as one of the top ten consortiums in Hong Kong, the Kadoorie family has never cared about these so-called honors.

They prefer to make a fortune quietly.

Holding 40% of China Light and Power's shares, the Kadoorie family never imagined that anyone would target their China Light and Power Company.

Therefore, Zhang Qizheng's operation went very smoothly.

In the following week or so, the trading team organized by Zhang Qizheng secretly manipulated the stock market of China Light and Power.

Furthermore, to be more certain, Su Cheng spent 400 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire a total of 12.5% of China Light and Power's shares from three British individuals, using the information he had.

Currently, many British people want to sell their assets in Hong Kong and evacuate as soon as possible, in case their assets in Hong Kong might collapse in the future.

This also provided great convenience for Su Cheng; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to acquire these shares from the British so easily.

In addition, during this week or so, Zhang Qizheng's trading team successfully acquired 8.2% of China Light and Power's shares at a cost of around 300 million Hong Kong dollars.

After that, it became difficult to continue accumulating shares.

Basically, all the shares that could be acquired in the stock market had been acquired.

There was no need to continue acquiring the remaining shares listed at high prices.

It is impossible for Hong Kong Electric Holdings Limited to acquire it, because the assets of Hong Kong Electric Holdings Limited are not as good as those of China Light and Power. The cash flow of China Light and Power is much more than that of Hong Kong Electric Holdings Limited. How can it acquire a larger enterprise?

Therefore, Su Cheng can only acquire it in his own name.

Because he has a lot of money!

At the same time, he also told the Xia Yi News about his plan to acquire China Light and Power.

When Su Cheng sent the takeover intention letter to the headquarters of China Light and Power, Xia Yi News also reported the news simultaneously.

Suddenly, the news that Su Cheng planned to acquire China Light and Power spread throughout Hong Kong.

Xia Yi News also became the best-selling newspaper that day, selling more than 500,000 copies.

In any era, there are many onlookers.

Especially for things like Su Cheng's plan to acquire China Light and Power, for ordinary people in Hong Kong, it is a news that must be followed.

Su Cheng is Chinese. For ordinary Hong Kong people, he is one of their own.

Rather than saying that everyone is just watching, it is better to say that everyone hopes that Su Cheng can really acquire China Light and Power, so that China Light and Power can truly become a Chinese-owned enterprise, instead of being a foreign-owned enterprise.

At the headquarters of China Light and Power in Ya Jie Old Street, Ho Man Tin, Kowloon, Hong Kong, Lawrence Kadoorie, the chairman of China Light and Power, was discussing how to deal with this matter with his son, Michael Kadoorie.

For them, this news came too suddenly.

Who is Su Cheng? He is a man known as the richest man in the world.

Although the Kadoorie family's strength has been increasing in the past few decades, they are naturally ashamed of themselves when it comes to comparing their wealth with Su Cheng.

"Father, we hold 40% of China Light and Power's shares, so there is no need to worry that he can take over our controlling stake!" Michael Kadoorie said from the side.

The Kadoorie family has been passing down through three generations, and the family has always been prosperous in wealth but not in descendants.

"That's what they say, but if Mr. Su Cheng wants to take over the 60% of the shares in circulation, he really can do it with his strength. Even if he only becomes the second largest shareholder of China Light and Power in the end, do you think we can still sleep well? At that time, we will have to guard against him swallowing our shares again every day, and our lives will not be able to continue to develop in a low-key manner," Lawrence Kadoorie sighed.

China Light and Power's power station was once forced to be destroyed during World War II. After World War II, Lawrence Kadoorie rebuilt China Light and Power Company again. After more than 30 years, China Light and Power has finally reached its current scale. It can be said that China Light and Power was rebuilt and developed by Lawrence Kadoorie single-handedly. Now that it has been targeted, Lawrence Kadoorie feels very angry, but also very powerless.

This is the first time he has been targeted like this since the end of World War II. Previously, their development has been smooth, even better than the Hong Kong Electric Holdings Limited on the other side.

Just as the two were discussing, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Lawrence Kadoorie said.

The door opened, and it was the general manager of China Light and Power.

"Mr. Chairman, I have important matters to report to you," the general manager came to the two of them panting.

"What is it? Speak directly," Lawrence Kadoorie said impatiently. He was not in a good mood now.

"It's like this. Just now, we learned that Tianyuan Investment Company, under Mr. Su Cheng, is acquiring our shares on a large scale. In addition, the shares of the three shareholders, Edgeworth-Rex and others, have also been sold to Mr. Su Cheng. It seems that Mr. Su Cheng really intends to annex China Light and Power," the general manager took a deep breath and then reported everything he knew.

"Edgeworth-Rex and the others are traitors. They didn't discuss it with us at all, Fack!" Michael Kadoorie said angrily.

"You go out first," Lawrence Kadoorie glanced at his son and then said to the general manager of China Light and Power.

"Okay, Mr. Chairman," the general manager glanced at the two of them and silently withdrew from the office.

Although he does not hold shares in China Light and Power, he and Lawrence Kadoorie are like grasshoppers on the same rope. If Kadoorie loses control of China Light and Power, then he, the general manager, will most likely be kicked out.

"This matter is not easy to handle. No matter what, we must not lose China Light and Power. This is the lifeblood of our family!" Lawrence Kadoorie said seriously.

"Of course, Father, we have also accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. Why don't we acquire the shares at all costs, so that our holdings exceed 50%, so that we will not be afraid of this Mr. Su Cheng at all!" Michael Kadoorie said directly.
