Huayu since 1980

Chapter 401 Wu Jianye, who makes people confused

Simon Keswick and Li Chaoren played the emotional card, but Li Chaoren did not intend to accept the move. The price of 18 Hong Kong dollars per share was impossible for them to accept.

They have no obligation to pay for Simon Keswick's feelings!
In the end, the two sides did not reach a consensus, and they touched each other's glasses and separated.

Seeing Li Chaoren and Simon Keswick separated, Wu Jianye smiled and said to Zheng Yutong; "Zheng Sheng, it seems it's time for us to appear on stage!" '

Zheng Yutong said, "Wu Sheng, there is one thing I hope you can understand."

Wu Jianye stopped his steps: "Does Zheng Sheng have any suggestions?"

Zheng Yutong said: "Wu Sheng, it is understandable that Yaoguang Group is interested in Landmark, but negotiation is not something that can only be resolved at the negotiating table. We hope that Wu Sheng can consider some things, because after all, everyone belongs to Chinese, everyone competes fairly, everyone depends on their ability, and everyone can accept winning or losing. I hope Wu Sheng will not be misled by Simon Keswick, and everyone will fight with each other in the end, and Jardine will finally take advantage of it."

Wu Jianye understood what Zheng Yutong meant. He was worried that during the negotiations between Yaoguang Group and Jardine Mathematics, he would be set up by Jardine Mathematics, and then form malicious competition with the new consortium formed by Zheng Yutong and others, raising prices maliciously. Earn it, but let Jardine earn it.

This is another worry that Zheng Yutong and others do not understand the details of Wu Jianye. They really don't know how much Wu Jianye is going to offer. Competition?
"Zheng Sheng, don't worry, Yaoguang Group's bid will not exceed 15 Hong Kong dollars per share!" Wu Jianye did not hide it, but told Zheng Yutong about his low price.

Zheng Yutong's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, but said calmly, "Wu Sheng is the price."

Wu Jianye understood what Zheng Yutong meant, but he still smiled and said, "I always have to try it, in case Simon Keswick finds our Yaoguang Group pleasing to the eye!"

Zheng Yutong shook his head with a wry smile.

"Excuse me for a while!" Wu Jianye left.

"How did the talk go?" Li Chaoren came to Zheng Yutong's side and asked.

"I didn't understand it!" Zheng Yutong said with some incomprehension thinking about Wu Jianye's confident smile just now.

Li Chaoren was slightly taken aback: "Yaoguang Group wants to increase the price?"

"No." Then Zheng Yutong began to talk about the conversation just now to his partner.

At this time, Wu Jianye also came to Simon Keswick's side.

"Mr. Keswick!"

"Wu Sheng!"

The two parties don't need to introduce each other at all. Although they have never met each other, they both know each other's appearance.

"Mr. Keswick must have known that our Yaoguang Group wants to acquire the 26% equity of Landmark held by your company!"

"I've heard a few, but I still say that, as long as the price is right, Landmark's door is open!" Simon Keswick laughed.

Like other Xiangjiang tycoons, Simon Keswick is also very curious about Wu Jianye. He also wants to know what surprises such a rich man who suddenly appeared will bring him!
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Mr. Keswick, don't worry, Yaoguang Group is very sincere in wanting to acquire Landmark, so the price we offer will definitely satisfy Mr. Keswick."

"I don't know what Wu Sheng's price is?"

"15 Hong Kong dollars per share!" Wu Jianye said seriously.

Simon Keswick was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, "Sheng Wu, I'm afraid you don't understand Hong Kong's status in Xiangjiang and his true value?"

Wu Jianye's expression was still very serious: "Mr. Keswick, don't worry, I definitely know Hong Kong Land better than you think!"

Simon Keswick said with a smile: "Since Wu Sheng knows, he should know that at the price of 15 Hong Kong dollars, he will definitely not be able to get land!"

Wu Jianye's serious expression disappeared, replaced by a smile instead: "Since Mr. Keswick thinks the price is inappropriate, let's wait."

Simon Keswick was a little confused about what Wu Jianye meant. It stands to reason that Wu Jianye met Huang Tingfang two days ago, and today he found himself on purpose. Obviously, he had ideas about the place, but why was it so different in terms of price? What about majors?
Could it be Yaoguang Group's capital reserves?
After chatting with Simon Keswick for a while, Wu Jianye left.

"What do you mean by Wu Jianye?" Simon Keswick subconsciously asked Bao Weishi next to him: "Is it because the strength of the Yaoguang Group has reached this position, or does he have no idea at all? The acquisition of Landmark, the recent operation, is actually trying to lower the price of Landmark?"

Bao Weishi also showed a trace of doubt: "I can't see through this person either. Judging from his expression just now, he must have thought about the opposite, but the price he gave is just right."

Simon Keswick thought for a while, but still couldn't understand what Wu Jianye meant, and finally just shook his head: "Forget it, if you don't understand, don't think about it. If he really wants to buy land, he will come again." of!"

At this time, two elderly people in their 60s walked into the dinner party, one was a bit thin and the other was a bit rich.

Both of them are well-known figures in Xiangjiang. The thin one is Huo Tsar, a hidden rich man in Xiangjiang, while the rich one is the charter king known as the world's ship king.

They are all highly respected people in the Xiangjiang business circle, and naturally aroused many people to talk to them when they came here.

And Wu Jianye also chatted with the two through Zheng Yutong's introduction.

"Young people are awesome!" The two couldn't help sighing after seeing Wu Jianye's age.

Through chatting with Wu Jianye, he found that Emperor Huo Tsar talked more about domestic affairs with him, while the Chartered Ship King was a bit dull.

People say that the real estate industry is the most profitable in Xiangjiang now, but they don't know that the lifeline of Xiangjiang's real estate industry is firmly grasped by Huo Tsar.

Steel, cement and sand are the three main building materials, apart from this one, even a "smart woman" cannot "cook without rice".

Due to the special geographical location of Xiangjiang, sand has become a scarce building material in Xiangjiang.

In the initial stage, there were two sources of sand in the Xiangjiang River.

One is the river beach; but it is loaded on a car and shipped from China to Xiangjiang. "Tofu plate has become the price of meat", and the quantity is limited.In the face of the booming real estate industry in Xiangjiang, it is no different than a drop in the bucket, and it is difficult to cope with it.

The second is the seabed; especially in the shallow sea area of ​​the reefs in the South China Sea, the thick sand layer can be said to be inexhaustible and inexhaustible.Some people have roughly calculated that the amount of sand stored in just one sea area can cover the entire Xiangjiang River (including Lantau Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories), and it is relatively "closer", so it is convenient to take it at any time.

The terrible thing is that the "sand washing" industry is extremely risky.The investment is large and the cycle is long.Under normal circumstances, compared with the sea sand obtained, the amount of manpower and machinery needed is not worth the gain.

At this time, Huo Tsar, relying on his relationship with the country, has the "monopoly" of exporting Huaxia Haishasha, and his status as a giant in the sand washing industry has made Huo Tsar a prominent figure in the Xiangjiang industry.

Only then did Emperor Huo Tsar have a great reputation.

However, it is precisely because of the close relationship with the country that Huo Tsar was often targeted by the Hong Kong government in the early stage of Xiangjiang.

In the 60s, Emperor Huo Tsar built the 'Star House' building in front of the Star Ferry Pier in Kowloon.

From the first floor to the third floor of the "Starlight Walk" building, most of them are occupied by "China Art Company", which exclusively sells high-end domestic products in China; the fourth floor is the Starlight Village, where the closed Xiangjiang Wax Museum was originally located.Above the fourth floor are hundreds of well-decorated office rooms.Lease to all kinds of merchants.

Unexpectedly, things went against people's wishes.Because Huo Tsar is well known as the general distributor of Chinese sea sand.It is not difficult to understand that the "Starlight Line" belonging to his property was harshly treated and made things difficult by the government when it was renting out.

It is said that at that time, anyone who wanted to rent the "Starlight Walk" office received "advice" from the "telephone company" of the government, asking them to think twice;Most people in business are greedy for "profit" and forget "righteousness", and they are the most adaptable to wind and wind. Who would dare to "fight against each other" (Cantonese: against each other!) with the Hong Kong government? !Besides, it is really impossible to do business without the phone, so they retreated one after another; some even sacrificed the "deposit" they paid.

Under the circumstances, Khossar had mixed feelings.He had no choice but to grit his teeth and sold "Starlight Bank" to Hongkong Land at the lowest price of more than 3000 million yuan.

Throughout this transaction, Emperor Huo Tsar lost tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.Could he have bought a lesson?Yes, as the so-called "blind man eats glutinous rice balls-knows what he knows".

The Chartered Ship King was the richest man in Xiangjiang before Li Chaoren. Before the cold winter of shipping, the Chartered Ship King made the decision to abandon the ship and land with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers.

The acquisition of Landmark Wharf even cost tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars. Even decades later, the acquisition of Wharf by the charter king is still one of the most famous commercial acquisitions in Hong Kong.

It has become the first source of funds for many Hong Kong-language travellers.
However, compared to Huo Tsar, Wu Jianye is more like chatting with the charter king. After all, the charter king still has 15% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank at this time!

However, Wu Jianye's strategy for the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank was obviously different from that of Hongkong Land, and he did not directly mention it, but only mentioned that he wanted to find time to visit the two seniors in the past two days.

Huo Tsar and the Chartered Ship King also did not refuse Wu Jianye's request, and they made appointments with Wu Jianye respectively.

With the arrival of Wei Yixin, the governor's dinner officially began.

As for the positions of Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao, they were not assigned to the first-class round table in the end.

However, Wu Jianye didn't respond to this. His purpose of coming to the Hong Kong governor's dinner this time has been achieved. As for sitting there, he doesn't care at all.

After the dinner, Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao looked at each other, neither was full.

So the two sat in the car, under the protection of the bodyguards, and wore the dresses they had attended the Hong Kong governor's dinner. They found a food stall that was still open and sat down. They ordered two bottles of beer and a few stir-fried vegetables. Woolen cloth.

"I've always wondered, those rich people wear suits and leather shoes, hold wine glasses, and don't see them move their chopsticks once or twice at a dinner party. Are they really full?" After all these years, Zhou Tao is still not used to it. that kind of life.

Wu Jianye smiled indifferently and said, "You think he went to eat, but he went to discuss business."

"Besides, you have long been a rich man, and you are richer than many people present!"

At this time, Zhou Tao's wealth has already been calculated in billions, and it is still in US dollars.

Zhou Tao said helplessly: "I know what you said, but I still don't like that!"

Wu Jianye chuckled and glanced at Zhou Tao: "Do you like it if I let you go home and farm?"

Zhou Tao stopped talking.

In the end, Wu Jianye defined Zhou Tao: "You, this is hypocrisy!"
