We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

"Since both are commercial complexes, Harbour City can indeed communicate well with Hutchison Whampoa Plaza and learn from each other's experiences. However, Mr. Simon Tooley is in charge of Hutchison Whampoa, Mr. Bao can contact Mr. Tooley when he has time, and everyone can chat together, which can broaden their thinking," Su Cheng said with a smile, putting down his teacup.
As for Hutchison Whampoa Plaza, Su Cheng felt that he had taught them almost everything he could. The subsequent operation naturally depended on the Hutchison Whampoa Plaza's operation team and Simon Tooley, the president of Hutchison Whampoa.
As for Harbour City, as one of the bosses, Su Cheng also hoped that it could develop as soon as possible.
The rent here, with its inherent advantages, would have a very high starting price.
In the future, when the traffic explodes, the rent will rise even higher.
This is something that Hutchison Whampoa Plaza cannot compare with. After all, Hutchison Whampoa Plaza is just a suburban commercial plaza. If it is operated well, the traffic will not be too bad, but it mainly focuses on middle and low-end consumers.
After the dishes were served, the two continued to talk about many things about Wharf.
Everyone is a shareholder of Wharf, and also the largest and second largest shareholders, so the topic of discussion naturally mainly revolves around it.
As for the others, they were just digressions, mainly mutual commercial flattery, which Su Cheng was not very interested in.
After finishing dinner, the two had talked almost enough, and Su Cheng said goodbye to Shipping King Bao.
When he returned home, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
"Boss, have you eaten?" Zhong Chuhong thoughtfully took off Su Cheng's suit jacket and asked.
"I have eaten," Su Cheng smiled.
Not long after, Zhang Qizheng called Su Cheng from England.
"Boss, I know about HSBC Bank. I have already arranged things. Your method is really great. It not only covers up our acquisition of HSBC Group shares, but also gets the other party's stock easily. It's simply a win-win situation."
"I just came up with it on a whim. Be careful not to let others discover that we are trading in a left-hand-to-right-hand manner."
"Don't worry, boss, we are experienced and know what to do."
"Well, this is really one good news after another. Taking Mr. Scottie Fisher's 2.26% shares will further increase our holdings in HSBC Bank. This progress is much faster than expected!"
"Indeed, but this kind of thing is rare. After we get Mr. Scottie Fisher's shares, our progress in the stock market will also slow down. We can only hope that more shareholders want to sell their shares."
"The probability is still quite high. In the next two or three years, many British consortia will not be able to see the future of Hong Kong, so they will be timid and want to sell HSBC Group's shares. You should pay more attention to this. Once a shareholder wants to sell, we can take over if we have the opportunity, but we must not let them discover our ambition."
"Of course. By the way, boss, I have another matter to report to you, which is about the Leyland Motor Corporation. Currently, I have discussed many conditions with the Leyland Motor Corporation's senior management. In principle, they agree to sell the Austin brand, and even move all the Austin production lines to Hong Kong without any problem.
They are unwilling to sell the Leyland Victory bus manufacturing company brand, but they can transfer the technology to us in combination with Austin, and can assist us in building a bus production line in Hong Kong. They also promise that the bus technology is the most advanced they have.
Regarding the transaction amount, the funds we have negotiated are currently 6 million pounds, which is approximately 66 million Hong Kong dollars when converted into Hong Kong dollars. In fact, the current Austin is not worth that much money, but because we are buyers from outside the UK, if the price is not higher, the British government will definitely block our transaction.
Moreover, the chairman of the Leyland Motor Corporation's board of directors also peddled Jaguar Cars to me. Jaguar Cars is a luxury car brand. If we are interested, we can also take this famous British luxury car brand for only 14 million pounds.
That is to say, if we spend 20 million pounds, we can acquire Austin and Jaguar in a package, and they will also give us a bus production line and the most advanced bus technology. After negotiation, the Leyland Motor Corporation's senior management promised that they would persuade the British National Enterprise Board for us.
Currently, we have not signed an agreement. I am mainly reporting this matter to you, boss, for you to decide."
Zhang Qizheng reported the details of his negotiations with Leyland Motor Corporation to Su Cheng in detail.
"Jaguar Cars?" Su Cheng's interest suddenly increased.
Even decades later, this brand is still a very well-known luxury brand. Although its sales cannot be compared with those of Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi, its influence is also very strong.
Now, luxury brands like BBA are doing very well, and the other party's boss will definitely not sell them.
In that case, it's not bad to buy a Jaguar to play with.
Moreover, the price of 20 million pounds to acquire two well-known car brands seems pretty good.
Perhaps, more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars is a large sum of money for others, but for Su Cheng, it is just a sum of money that can be easily earned.
In fact, this price is indeed not cheap.
When the British National Enterprise Board fully acquired Leyland Motor Corporation, it only spent 60 million pounds.
The newest novels are all first published at 6_9_shu_ba!
In this way, 20 million pounds is not a loss.
What's more, Su Cheng is just an outsider after all. It is already very good that they are willing to sell these technologically advanced enterprises to Su Cheng.
"If we buy Jaguar Cars, can we move the headquarters to Hong Kong?" Su Cheng asked.
Although Su Cheng didn't know much about Jaguar Cars' sales in his previous life, he actually liked the car name very much. Jaguar Jaguar, Jie, victory is Jie, also refers to fast, symbolizing victory, meaning victory, success, fast, flexible.
At the same time, the Jaguar car logo, like a leaping jaguar, is not only a symbol, but also a symbol of Jaguar's unique style.
This vivid, concise, and dynamic logo contains strength, rhythm, and bravery, just like every Jaguar car itself, full of power and shock.
With just over 10 million pounds, Su Cheng was already tempted to take down such a luxury car brand. (End of this chapter)
