Chapter 409 Cooperation with Bank of China (4300+ chapters, please subscribe~)

After the completion of Hongkong Land’s acquisition, for Wu Jianye, his life in Xiangjiang has come to an end. As for the gradual acquisition of Hongkong Land’s scattered shares, it will take half a year. As for this matter, Wu Jianye is also impossible He is involved, but will be handed over to Zhou Tao and Yanwen for joint operation!

There were no losers in this battle. Wu Jianye got the land he had always wanted, Yaoguang Group completely made its name in Xiangjiang, and Jardine got 80 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash. Among them, if they are not stupid, they can not only buy a lot of high-quality companies in the stock market, but also save themselves from the previous dilemma with abundant cash flow.

Liu Luanxiong of Chinese Real Estate also gained a lot. Not only did he get an interest-free loan of 5 million Hong Kong dollars from Wu Jianye, but he also got the high-profile intervention of Yaoguang Group after the Hong Kong stock market opened, and became one of the few in the Xiangjiang stock market disaster. Many listed companies with lower declines.

The same is true for Huang Tingfang. After he received the cash from Wu Jianye to purchase Landmark shares, he first bought his own company's shares at a low price in the stock market at a low price, and then turned around and announced that the Landmark shares held by his family had also been sold. After selling to Yaoguang Group, when it was learned that the Huang family held a large amount of cash, the stock price of Far East Organization was also stabilized.

If anyone is the most helpless among them, it is Li Chaoren, Zheng Yutong and others.

They have always wanted to acquire Landmark, so they did not hesitate to join forces to form a new consortium in order to be able to acquire Landmark, but now Wu Jianye took the lead and incorporated Landmark into the Yaoguang Group's business territory.

At this time, the 8% stake in Hongkong Land in their hands seems a bit tasteless. According to the announcement, Yaoguang Group already holds 32.68% of the equity of Hongkong Land at this time, and it is a well-deserved major shareholder of Hongkong Land. The stock price of Hongkong Land is bound to usher in another decline, so if they hold the stock price of Landmark in their hands again.

That is a loss.
"What should we do now?"

Chang Shi, Li Chaoren's office, Li Chaoren, Zheng Yutong, Li Zhaoji, and Mr. Rong sat here, looking a little worried.

"Wu Sheng's movements were so fast that Jardine didn't resist at all!" Li Zhaoji said helplessly.

Li Chaoren shook his head, and regretfully said: "The matter of Zhidi has been settled, one step at a time, one step at a time, and now we have no possibility to get Zhidi again!"

Mr. Rong also sighed beside him: "This matter is our carelessness. No one would have thought that Wu Jianye would spend such a huge amount of cash at this time. Even if we knew, it would be impossible to compete with him financially." of!"

These people have more or less suffered some losses during the stock market crash, and if they buy land with a large income at this time, it will also be a test for their company's stock price, and they cannot bear it, so Mr. Rong said that.

Zheng Yutong stood up and said in a deep voice, "I suggest selling the shares in Landmark in our hands to Wu Jianye now!"

Li Chaoren nodded and said, "That's the only way!"

Li Zhaoji said with some displeasure: "Is this the way to forget?"

Mr. Rong said with some doubts: "It's nothing if you want to sell the shares in your hand to Wu Jianye. It's just that he has so much money in his hand. Up to now, he has already given out 140 billion Hong Kong dollars!"

Zheng Yutong and Li Chaoren looked at each other: "Don't worry, I bet Wu Sheng will still have cash in his hands. If we don't sell our shares to him now, when the stock price of Landmark drops in the future, it will be a big deal for us. It’s just a hundred harms and no benefits!”

Li Zhaoji was the first to understand Zheng Yutong's meaning, and said, "Brother Tong, it seems that this time I will trouble you to open another game!"

Zheng Yutong laughed and said, "It's time to play, my hands are itchy!"

That night, Wu Jianye received a call from Zheng Yutong.

"Okay, Uncle Tong, I will definitely be there on time tonight!" Wu Jianye smiled and hung up the phone.

Zhou Tao asked next to him, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'll play poker with some friends tonight!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

At this time, Zheng Yutong invited himself to his villa to play poker. He knew with his toes that it must be for the shares in Landmark in their hands.

However, Wu Jianye has nothing to say about this. Now that the four companies want to sell their land shares, it is actually a good thing for Wu Jianye. After all, the strength of the four companies is unfathomable. If he wants to compete with himself for the equity of Landmark, it is estimated that it will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers. It will be good if this battle can be resolved now.

That night, Wu Jianye met Li Chaoren and others at Zheng Yutong's villa. Everyone sat together and did not play cards directly, because Zheng Yutong had said as early as when he organized the big D meeting that when playing cards, No business.

Now everyone knows what the meeting is about, so naturally there is no need to exchange too many pleasantries.

"Wu Sheng, Yaoguang Group's handwriting really shocked the whole Xiangjiang!" Zheng Yutong said with a big laugh.

Wu Jianye said modestly: "It just happened to coincide with the meeting, I also played a little clever, and took advantage of the four seniors to deal with the affairs of my company, and succeeded in a sneak attack!"

"Wu Sheng, you are too modest." Li Chaoren said.

Li Zhaoji on the side went on to say: "Wu Sheng, although he has become the largest shareholder of Hongkong Land this time, but now the Hong Kong stock market has been in a downturn, and the Acquisition and Merger Committee has canceled the 35% threshold for comprehensive acquisitions, why not Wu Sheng?" How about taking advantage of this opportunity to once again strengthen your position in Landmark?"

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "The price of HK$8.9 per share, if the four of you agree with this price, our Yaoguang Group can buy the price of Landmark from all of you!"

Mr. Rong said with some dissatisfaction, "Director Wu, isn't this price a little bit? Everyone knows that Wu Sheng bought the shares of Jardine Landmark at the beginning, but he gave a price of 12 Hong Kong dollars per share. Now it's here with us. How could it fall so badly!"

Wu Jianye said nonchalantly: "Mr. Rong, let's open the window and tell the truth. This purchase price can definitely make you a profit, and it's not a lot. As for the price I bought from other people, it was nothing more than the price I bought at that time. I need to enter the game, and now I am in charge of this game, so the price will naturally be different!"

"You..." Young Master Rong's face changed slightly, he didn't expect Wu Jianye to be so straightforward.

Zheng Yutong and Li Chaoren looked at each other, and then Zheng Yutong laughed suddenly: "Haha, well, since Wu Sheng said so, if we bargain with Wu Sheng again, it will appear that we are stingy, 8.9 Hong Kong dollars per share, 8.9 Hong Kong dollars per share, but we need to sign the contract as soon as possible."

Wu Jianye took a look at Zheng Yutong, and understood in his heart that they wanted to take advantage of the impact of the stock market crash, and they were also planning to buy the bottom and enter the market. Uh, the market has been rescued!
"Uncle Tong has already said that, so there is no problem. Tomorrow, Yaoguang Group will hold a check and wait for the four of you at the company!"

The 18 billion Hong Kong dollar business was negotiated lightly by a few people. Compared with the previous negotiation between Yaoguang Group and Jardine Matheson, it was much more harmonious.

"Haha, now that the business is over, let's play cards!" Zheng Yutong laughed again.

Li Chaoren smiled and said, "Today, Mr. Wu, you must be prepared to bleed heavily!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Seniors, don't worry."

But just when everyone was about to enter the venue, Wu Jianye suddenly brought up one thing again: "Several seniors, the China World Building that we jointly invested with Senior Guo He in Yanjing is currently under construction. I believe that the domestic development situation , Needless to say, everyone knows it, so I invite you here to put your company's office in Yanjing in China World Trade Center!"

This is something Wu Jianye had already thought about.

The reason why the government agreed to Guo Henian's plan to join China World Trade Center was because of Guo Henian's reputation in the circle of Chinese businessmen in Southeast Asia.

I hope that with the influence of Guo Henian, more Chinese businessmen can enter China World Trade Center. Now that China World Trade Center has entered the second half of the period, Guo Henian has already invited many businessmen, but as the largest shareholder, Yaoguang Group, if they do not invite Some well-known group companies have joined, so doesn't it mean that Yaoguang Group's influence in Xiangjiang is insufficient!
As for Li Chaoren and others, in fact, they have no objection to Wu Jianye's invitation. They have already been in contact with the country, let alone Mr. Rong was there, so they just thought about it and agreed. I accepted Wu Jianye's invitation.

After talking about this matter, the few people can be regarded as the real start of today's poker game.

At this time, Wu Jianye was in Xiangjiang, so there was only one last thing left!

Standard Chartered Bank!

To acquire Standard Chartered Bank, the problems you have to face are actually not as easy as Hongkong Land, and even more complicated.

First of all, Standard Chartered Bank is registered in England. If you want to acquire Standard Chartered Bank, you must have a relationship with England. You can't let them come out to make trouble at a critical moment. If they come up with some so-called Wu Jianye, have you heard it? Wu Jianye will be in trouble if the policy comes out to block this acquisition!

However, this problem is not so difficult to solve. After all, the foundation of Standard Chartered Bank is in Xiangjiang, not England, and Shanhai Investment, not Yaoguang Group, acquired Standard Chartered Bank!

Because of the place of registration, no one knows who the real behind-the-scenes boss of Shanhai Investment is.

The second question is that although Standard Chartered Bank’s equity is widely dispersed, major shareholder Ryan Henderson’s control over Standard Chartered Bank and Jardine’s control over Landmark can be seen from the performance of Chartered King’s acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank’s shares. At that time, the charter king, as the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered, still couldn't influence the opinions of the management, so he knew Ryan Henderson's ability.

Secondly, after the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank, Wu Jianye's most important business arrangement for Standard Chartered Bank was to introduce him into the country!
This one is the most difficult, but it is also the easiest, because at this time Standard Chartered Bank has already started to deploy in China because of its early cooperation with China. In the 80s, Standard Chartered Bank has established branches or branches in 14 major cities in China. It is one of the foreign banks with the widest network in China.

That is to say, as long as Wu Jianye acquires Standard Chartered Bank, it actually means that he has entered the domestic market. However, there are still some problems. For example, due to domestic policy reasons, Standard Chartered Bank will Facing enormous tests and policy issues.

If Wu Jianye’s vision is not big, in fact, gradual development is enough, but if Wu Jianye wants to fully enter the domestic market in the stage of rapid domestic development in the 90s and [-]s, then he must have a state-owned background to join
Only with the addition of a state-owned background, will it completely clear the way for Standard Chartered Bank to enter the domestic market.

As for which one to import.
Wu Jianye quickly chose his partner.

"Thank you Mr. Gao for the noodles!"

At Lu Yu Teahouse, Wu Jianye met Gao Jinbao, the chairman of Xiangjiang Bank of China!

Xiangjiang Bank of China was formally established after Bank of China integrated Xiangjiang’s Chinese-funded banks, including Xiangjiang Bank of China, Bank of Communications, Xinhua Bank, Jincheng Bank, etc., a total of 9 Chinese-funded banks were established.

The number of branches in Xiangjiang also reached 287, accounting for 21.7% of the total, and the storage business also accounted for about 20% of the entire market. In Xiangjiang, it has become the third largest banking group after HSBC.

The second largest banking group in Xiangjiang belongs to foreign-funded banks, including American-funded banks and Japanese-funded banks.

These three asset banks have firmly occupied the mainstream of Xiangjiang's banking industry, while the Chinese-funded banks that once had considerable influence in Xiangjiang have suffered heavy blows and begun to decline after 1965. Some banks were either unable to withstand the attack of the banking crisis because of insufficient competitiveness, or were unable to operate independently due to poor management and illegal activities. They went bankrupt or were acquired, merged or taken over by the Hong Kong government.Nowadays, foreign-funded banks are coming aggressively. Under such a big environment, how many Chinese-funded banks in Xiangjiang are left?
Although Gao Jinbao met Wu Jianye for the first time, it was not the first time he met Zhou Tao. Yaoguang Group's business in China, in terms of capital transactions, more than half of them were handled by Bank of China.

In addition to these three major banking groups, there are still a small group of Chinese-funded banks struggling in Xiangjiang.

Huazi Bank, also known as local bank, was established in Xiangjiang by local merchants or overseas Chinese businessmen from Southeast Asia. The golden age of Huazi Bank was from the late 40s to the early 60s. There are a large number of branches, and they have considerable influence among the Chinese in Hong Kong, especially the middle and lower classes and small and medium-sized enterprises.

But now there are only 27 Chinese-funded banks registered in Hong Kong, and most of them have been acquired by foreign banks and other institutions because of various problems. The eight banks were able to maintain their wholly-owned independence. This situation became more serious in 1989. Three barely independent Chinese-funded banks were canceled by the Hong Kong government.

"Director Wu's reputation in Xiangjiang is booming. I've wanted to meet Director Wu for a long time, but I didn't expect to wait until now!" Gao Jinbao laughed.

"Mr. Gao, you are too polite. The domestic work is really too busy. The school has already said it several times. My teacher has a name and does not go to class. It will inevitably be criticized!" Wu Jianye casually asked for a reason.

Gao Jinbao rolled his eyes in his heart, he is a big boss of this level, and he is still named as a teacher in a film academy in China. Gao Jinbao also thinks that he has seen many people about those movies, but This is really the first time seeing Wu Jianye like this!

"I don't know why Director Wu invited Gao this time"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "I hope to reach a cooperation agreement with Bank of China!"
