Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chapter 129 Purchase at a Fixed Price
Doom clapped his hands and said in a loud voice, "From now on, you'll be working on the construction site, helping Brother Jun. Everyone will be envious! If you're not satisfied, you can always ask to switch to another branch!"

"Construction has started?"

The gang's newly recruited henchman was dumbfounded; he never expected that the guy would actually go to the construction site to start work.

This is far removed from their imagined life of swords and shadows in the martial arts world.

Some people immediately voiced their doubts, but due to the pressure from Ah Da behind Doom, they dared not utter any complaints.

"Correct!"

"Construction begins!"

"Working for Brother Jun is a great way to get exercise! What's wrong with that!"

Doom rallied his men, shouting, "Now, let's get to work!"

Chen Zilong put on his safety helmet and shouted, "Let's get to work!"

But in his heart he thought to himself: Liang Jun! He's not human! He even squeezed the value out of a person before eating their kidneys.

Make sure you perform well on the construction site!

At the same time, maintain good relationships with your fellow workers!

We must obtain the evidence as soon as possible and escape this hellhole!
With Chen Zilong taking the lead, several determined newcomers to the gang also put on safety helmets and work gloves, believing that this was a test from their leader.

Even Sir John Paul Wong is now bowing down to Brother Jun, so what else could they possibly complain about!

With the encouragement of these determined individuals, the remaining newcomers also put aside their complaints, put on the three-piece construction set, and, under Chen Nanlu's arrangement, started working and carrying bricks.

As for wages, Doom didn't mention it to them.

This scene brought tears to the eyes of Jews, broke the hearts of capitalists, and made those working 996 (9 AM to 9 PM, 6 days a week) exclaim, "They know it all!"

After returning to Hong Kong Island from the Sam Shing Temple, Chan Ka-Chun went to the Hilton Hotel with Sir John Paul.

At this moment, in the conference room of the Hilton Hotel, sat Chen Jiajun, Sir John Paulson, Shen Bi, Huang Dawen, Sir John Paulson's lawyer, and stockbroker Zhan Peizhong.

After both lawyers confirmed that the contract was correct, Chen Jiajun and Sir John Paul Wong signed the Wharf Holdings equity transfer agreement, and Sir John Paul Wong immediately arranged for Huifeng to make the payment.

A transaction worth HK$24.675 billion was thus completed.

The two faced the media reporters below the stage and clasped hands tightly together.

"Ah Jun, thank you so much." Only now did Sir Bao feel relieved.

"You're welcome, it's a deal."

In the hall, flashes of light filled the air as reporters snapped away, already mentally preparing headlines for tomorrow's story.

As the mastermind behind Chan Ka-Chun's acquisition of Wharf Holdings' shares, James Chan felt a sense of pride.

With this deal, he can become the most famous top broker in all of Hong Kong!
Of course, all of this is thanks to the man in front of me who is only twenty-one years old.

What's even more impressive is that Chen Jiajun's initial capital was only 4500 million.

In the acquisition of Jianing, Chen Songqing of Jianing Group spent a full 4 million yuan to purchase these shares.

Chen Jiajun then invested all of this money into Wharf Holdings, and Sir John Paul Wong spent another 25 billion to buy these shares.

In just six months, the initial 4500 million has increased fiftyfold to 24.576 billion!
in front of the TV.

Guan Jiahui stared intently at the television screen, where Chen Jiajun, Sir John Bao, and Shen Bi chatted and laughed, seemingly without any pressure, exuding confidence in every gesture.

She admired Chen Jiajun even more.

This moment truly touched my G-spot.

……

"Mr. Chen, what are your feelings right now?"

"Mr. Chen, excuse me for taking two minutes of your time..."

The conference hall was packed with reporters.

Chen Jiajun handed the stage to Sir John Bao: "Mr. Bao, let's talk later."

Then, he gave the reporters a warm smile and said, "I'm sorry, the main character today is Sir John Paul, I have other personal matters to attend to."

Tianyang's Seven Sons, Yaqi, and others immediately formed a human wall to make their eldest brother leave the meeting room.

Zhan Peizhong also left the conference room. Just as he was about to say goodbye, Chen Jiajun looked at him and asked, "Zhong, are you interested in doing something for me?"

"what?"

Zhan Peizhong was taken aback, but quickly nodded to show his loyalty, "Of course! Of course I'm interested in working with you."

"Later, Sir Michael Sandberg, Sir John Paul Whampoa, and I have another matter to discuss: the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa. You are welcome to listen in."

"Go to Huoduoli Company tomorrow and resign. I'll open a securities company for you as soon as possible."

Chen Jiajun patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Yes, boss!"

At this moment, Zhan Peizhong even changed how he addressed people.

Chen Jiajun's two transactions yielded not only wealth, but also the loyalty of this future stock market guru, known as the "Angry Man of Chaozhou"!
Sir John Paul II's major acquisition of Wharf Holdings was hailed as the first large-scale clash between Chinese and British capital.

It has caused a strong reaction in various places.

It is also hailed as the largest and most classic commercial battle since Hong Kong's opening to trade. While Sir John Paulson's acquisition of a trading company was indeed the largest in scale, it was not the first such operation.

The first to acquire a foreign firm was the Zhang family, the same Zhang family that sold Paterson Street to Hang Lung Group.

However, the Zhang family's acquisition of Wheelock was very swift.

After the acquisition, the Zhang family chose to remain behind the scenes, maintaining the company's original management team.

From Chen Jiajun's perspective, the most suitable place to hold his money is Hutchison Whampoa.

Li Ka-shing made his fortune in the 1980s by developing four major housing estate projects.

Laguna City in Cha Kwo Ling, Harbour Plaza in Ap Lei Chau, Whampoa Garden, Tin Shui Wai.

These four housing estates all share a common characteristic: they were not favored by their peers before construction, and their geographical locations were very remote.

Li Ka-shing remained calm when others were frantic, and acted wildly when others were calm. He earned astonishing profits of tens of billions of yuan in four projects, which solidified his status as the richest man in China.

Three of the four public housing estates are related to Hutchison Whampoa.

This clearly demonstrates the prestige of Hutchison Whampoa as one of the four major trading houses.

This time, Chen Jiajun is going to follow Li Ka-shing's path and leave Li Ka-shing with nowhere to go.

Hilton Hotel, penthouse presidential suite.

Chen Jiajun stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a cigar between his left and a wine glass in his right, gazing blankly at the night view of Hong Kong outside the window.

"Da da da."

Just then, noisy footsteps came from outside the door, and someone knocked on the door.

Yaqi stepped forward to open the door, and there came Sir John Paul Wong, Wu Guangzheng, and Shen Bi: "Brother, Mr. Paul and Mr. Shen have arrived."

A full hour had passed since the press conference, but Sir John Paulson was still beaming, a testament to his immense joy.

"Sir Bao, Mr. Shen, Mr. Wu, please have a seat!"

Chen Jiajun smiled slightly and gestured for them to proceed.

“I specially chose a bottle of 61 Latour to celebrate Sir John Paul Reece’s birthday. It has been open for half an hour, and now is the perfect time to enjoy it.”

As he spoke, he poured a glass of wine for each of the three of them.

"Congratulations."

"Haha, congratulations to you all."

The group raised their glasses at the same time and drank them down in one gulp.

Sir Bao clicked his tongue, and Chen Jiajun asked, "How does it taste?"

"Jun, to be honest, I can't tell the difference between good and bad red wine," Sir John said frankly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiajun laughed heartily: "Hahaha, I'm just being pretentious."

Sir John Paul took the cigar, lit it, and said with a smile, "How does it feel? You're now the richest young person in all of Hong Kong."

"To be honest, this 2.4 billion doesn't belong to me alone; it belongs to the entire Hung Hing Group." Chan Ka-Chun smiled. Of the 580 million principal used to acquire Wharf Holdings shares, only 500 million was his own.

After everyone had finished their late-night snack, Sir Bao looked at Shen Bi and said, "Now it's time for me to keep my promise."

Mr. Shen, at what price does Huifeng plan to sell Hutchison Whampoa?
I suppose I don't need to bring this up at the board meeting next Monday?"

The entire Huifeng was essentially a one-man show by Shen Bi, even though Shen Bi was just a professional manager.

But Shen Bi can be considered the spiritual leader of Huifeng's postmodernism.

Although Sir Michael Sandberg was eager to get rid of Hutchison Whampoa, which was held by Huifeng, he had some things to clarify before the transaction: "Mr. Chen, you should have heard of Li Ka-shing, right?"

"Mr. Li is already acquiring Hutchison?"

Chen Jiajun's heart skipped a beat.

Sir Michael Sandberg nodded and explained, "Currently, Huifeng's stake in Hutchison Whampoa is almost the same as that of Li Ka-shing of Cheung Kong Holdings."

If you want to acquire Hutchison Whampoa, there will definitely be a battle for control, because Mr. Li also wants to acquire Hutchison Whampoa.

"This is not a problem for you as a buyer to consider; I think you only need to consider the selling price."

Chen Jiajun exhaled a puff of cigar smoke with an unusually domineering air.

If a seasoned, middle-aged tycoon said this, Shen Bi wouldn't be surprised.

But the young man in front of me is only twenty-one years old.

People are afraid of comparison.

He, Shen Bi, was also known as a dragon among men, but at the age of twenty-one, he was just a lowly ranger.

After a moment's thought, Sir Michael Sandberg quoted a price: "We, Huifeng, hold 22.4% of Hutchison Whampoa's shares. How about we offer them at the current price of HK$6.39 million, or HK$7.1 per share?"

"make a deal!"

Chen Jiajun agreed to the price without haggling.

Its speed was so fast that it startled both Shen Bi and Wu Guangzheng.

His arrogant tone, however, elicited a hint of admiration from Sir John Paul.
