Through the wealth life

Chapter 652 Guo Zhiquan

On the morning of the 22nd, Li Guangyu and the others held a three-hour meeting to discuss how to maintain the stability of Hong Kong's financial sector and ensure that Hong Kong's economy would not be affected by this major turmoil.

At the meeting, McBurney DeShawn hoped that HSBC, Standard Chartered and Tianyu Bank could make contributions in this storm, reflecting their responsibilities and responsibilities as large banks in the Xiangjiang area.

This time, it is another battle over the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong. The banking alliance headed by Luo Qianwen, vice chairman and vice president of Tianyu Financial Group, and Feng Jingxi of Sun Hung Kai Bank, expressed their views on this issue.

Feng Jingxi said: "Mr. Deshaun, the current financial situation in Hong Kong is facing severe challenges. For the sake of Hong Kong's future, I suggest that Tianyu Bank obtain the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars, so that Tianyu Bank can play a greater role in this financial situation. role, and make greater contributions to the development of Xiangjiang Finance.”

At present, the situation has not yet developed to the point where the Li's consortium must end. McBurney Deshaun will not be willing to let the Li's consortium obtain the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars.

At present, the biggest influence of the British government on Xiangjiang is on this. Whether it is the public opinion of Xiangjiang or the entity enterprises, the British consortium has retreated across the board. Only in the financial field can they still occupy the main position. If the right to issue banknotes is also controlled by the Chinese consortium, how can England control Xiangjiang.

McBurney Deshaun said: "Today we are discussing the current financial situation in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong dollar is currently very stable. At this time, adding a new note-issuing bank will only cause greater financial turmoil, which is not conducive to our solution to the current situation. Don’t mention it again.”

After this incident, DeShawn specifically asked about the current situation of Wing On Bank.

Now that Guo Zhikuang is being investigated by the Xiangjiang Economic Crime Investigation Bureau, the person who came here today is Guo Zhiquan, chairman of Wing On Group, who is also Guo Zhikuang's eldest brother.

Guo Zhiquan said: "Mr. Deshaun, our Wing On Bank is still in a state of being run on at present, and our bank's reserve funds will last until tomorrow afternoon at most. I hope you can help us to resolve this crisis in our bank."

Guo Zhiquan had a good plan. He hoped that the Xiangjiang government would help him stabilize the current situation for the sake of financial stability, so that the Guo family could keep the Wing On Bank.

It's a pity that he was too naive. The financial management authority will not come to save him a Chinese-owned bank, and the big banks will not help them solve the crisis for no reason. They will not do things that are not profitable. .

Guo Zhiquan's idea of ​​keeping Wing On Bank is unrealistic. That's the fact. Deshaun directly thinks that the financial management authority has not yet entered the market, and the major banks will solve their own difficulties on their own.

At the same time, major banks are required to appease their customers and not to refuse customers to withdraw their deposits for any reason. The Monetary Authority will increase the supervision of major banks in Xiangjiang in this regard.

McBurney DeShawn never thought of going to the bottom by himself, and their Monetary Authority didn't have that much money to back it up.

This time, the banks in Xiangjiang definitely need to be cleaned up. He needs to strengthen supervision on them now. Once there is a problem with the bank, they will take over immediately to minimize the losses of the citizens of Xiangjiang.

During the luncheon at noon, Guo Zhiquan deliberately came to Li Guangyu, Luo Qianwen, Feng Jingxi, Li Guobao and others, and sat at a table with them.

Guo Zhiquan knew very well that without the help of external forces, their Wing On Bank would not be able to get through this difficult time, and Xiangjiang currently has the strength to help him, only HSBC, Standard Chartered, and the Lee Consortium and other interest groups.

Especially the Li's consortium is very rich in funds, and he also knows some news on the stock market. The Li's consortium and its interest groups have made a lot of money this time, and their Wing On Bank is only a small and medium-sized bank. As long as they have one billion Hong Kong dollars The funds can be revitalized.

Since the meeting will continue in the afternoon, there is no wine prepared for the banquet at the Governor's Mansion at noon.

Guo Zhiquan picked up a cup of tea and said, "Mr. Li Guangyu, Mr. Feng Jingxi... I will offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."

At Li Guangyu's table, besides the Li's interest group, there were also Guo Zhiquan, the chairman of Guang'an Bank and the chairman of Fushun Bank.

The latter two are small banks, and they are not having a good time this time.However, they are better than the Guo family because they have not invested in real estate themselves. They are only facing debts that cannot be recovered temporarily, and they have not yet experienced insolvency.

The Guo family is in big trouble this time. The expansion of their Yongan Real Estate is mainly supported by loans from Yongan Bank. In addition to the problem of Guo Zhikuang being suspected of illegal lending this time, it is estimated that Yongan Bank will have a hard time getting out of this quagmire. Quite difficult.

Li Guangyu and others also gave Guo Zhiquan a lot of face, and they all raised their teacups in response.

……

After putting down his teacup, Guo Zhiquan said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, our Wing On Group and Wing On Bank have been developing well. This time, some debts are temporarily unrecoverable. Now we are facing a run on by the public. I hope you For the sake of being a Huazi family, you can give a helping hand and save our Guo family once."

Li Guangyu said: "Guo Sheng, I think you should be clear when our major banks reduced their loans to the real estate industry. Didn't you think about the current situation at that time? And what is the current situation of your Yongan Bank? I don't know too well, I can't give you a definite answer at the moment, after I go back, I will ask the subordinates to conduct an assessment of your Wing On Bank, and then discuss it with the senior management."

The relationship between Li Guangyu and Guo Zhiquan's family is neither good nor bad, it's just average, he doesn't want to give them the bottom line at this time.

When their own bank shrank, since they didn't follow suit, they had to be prepared to bear the consequences.

Wing On Bank is not the only bank that has problems this time. If every bank asks itself to give a helping hand in the name of being a Chinese-owned family, it will probably drag itself to death.

When Guo Zhiquan received such a reply from Li Guangyu, he knew that the way of the Li's consortium would not work.

And if their bank does not have support to enter before tomorrow afternoon, they will face a state of no money to draw. At that time, their Yongan Bank can only be taken over by the Hong Kong Financial Management Bureau and go into bankruptcy liquidation.

Since it was not enough to seek help, Guo Zhiquan came up with a new plan. He said, "Li Sheng, I don't know if you are interested in our Yongan Bank. Our Guo family is willing to transfer part of the bank's equity to you."

He hoped that the Li's consortium could take a stake in their Yongan Bank. With the influence of the Li's consortium and Li Guangyu, as long as they took a stake, the situation that Yongan Bank was facing a run on would be reversed immediately.

And maybe some of the previous customers will come back, just like the former Wing Hang Bank, after the Lee consortium took over, now Wing Hang Bank is already one of the top ten banks in Xiangjiang. East Asia, Heung Kong Commercial Bank, and Hang Seng Bank are neck and neck. How can the former Wing Hang Bank compare with these big banks.
