Winner Takes It All, Resurrection 2009

Chapter 570: The Shenzhen-Hong Kong merger is completely crazy

Although Temasek defected, it did not say a word about Qingyun. They are very sensible and just do not want the Hong Kong localists and Daiying Capital to fail too quickly.

If the latter collapses, mainland capital led by Runhua, Nandian and Qingyun will surely pour in on a large scale to seize the right to speak, and the Hong Kong capital group such as the Huo family, which is close to the mainland, will also cooperate.

We will definitely restart the 100,000 public housing project and the construction of the science and technology city, and introduce mid-to-high-end manufacturing industries, especially the industrial chain based on mobile Internet software and semiconductor hardware, which will greatly drive the economic development of Hong Kong.

In addition, the three major oil companies (CNOOC) have always wanted to use Hong Kong as a base to expand overseas and get involved in the Southeast Asian energy market. If Dongda Capital is allowed to develop unscrupulously.

With the help of Hong Kong's developed local financial and trade infrastructure, which provides sufficient funds and a sufficient consumer market, it would be extremely difficult for Lijiaopo to replace it and become the new Asian financial and trade center.

It is common for people to take different positions on different issues out of their own interests in the international economic and political exchanges.

Li Zehua was angry at first, but he quickly calmed down because the core foundation for getting rid of the control of Youtai Capital was still there, and Lijiaopo just wanted to gain a more advantageous position in future cooperation.

Even if they hold shares in each other's stocks, it does not mean that they must advance and retreat together beyond core interests.

"Boss, please don't look at me like that. I used to be the president of Temasek China, and now I'm the president of WeChat. I do my job. I haven't told Temasek anything about the company."

Wu Yibin and Lin Wenhui were a little embarrassed because they were both former senior executives of Temasek. Now the two families were in conflict and they seemed to be in a difficult situation.

Li Zehua glanced at Liu Zijie who also wanted to stand up and express his opinion, shook his head and said with a smile: "Everyone sit down, sixty years ago an old man said that we should seek common ground while reserving differences.

Even a couple sleeping in the same bed can still have a quarrel, let alone two such large groups. As long as the general direction remains unchanged and the basis for cooperation is still there, some differences and contradictions are inevitable. "

Lin Wenhui smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, you are open-minded and have a broad mind. However, as Temasek has moved forward, even people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have begun to express their opinions, believing that the methods used by the Group and Runhua are too radical.

Some even thought that this precedent should not be set. It was fine to handle the matter however it was handled privately, but the inside details should not be exposed to the public. Qiantang and Gusu, in particular, received the heaviest criticism.

Mr. Ding originally remained silent and did not make any statement. He just asked Aunt Wang to publish some news to prove her innocence. However, as the voices from Southeast Asia came in, he also took action.

I heard that he personally flew to Yanjing today and made frequent high-profile appearances to refute some accusations one by one. Some people in the public opinion and cultural fields also stood up to call for the protection of the domestic game industry.

Don’t do stupid things that will make your loved ones sad and your enemies happy, and put a lot of pressure on the investigation team.”

"How can he not be anxious? After all, Tenda still has payment channels and a huge customer base in the instant messaging industry, even if it is forced to divest its third-party game agency platform and paid value-added services.

After handing over the controlling stake held by a South African development bank, one could still live a comfortable life, but Aunt Wang could not.

It is said that the treasure house, which Mr. Ding called a stroke of genius, will be forced to close down. The water here is deep enough to drown a whale, and without a value-preserving system, it is impossible to stabilize revenue.

Without user support, some businesses that are not visible to the public cannot continue to operate. With the little income from selling point cards, it will take a long time to support the richest man in China. "

As an old hand in the industry, Sun Tongyu has witnessed the mythical story of Aunt Wang's stock being maliciously shorted after its listing, and then suddenly taking off at a certain special critical juncture. The tricks involved are well known to everyone.

Moreover, given the special cooperative relationship that Ali and Aunt Wang once had, many inside stories could not be hidden from him. Even now, he looks disdainful when talking about them, because anyone who tries to take shortcuts must go through the baptism of the soul.

The participants behind Aunt Wang and Tengda’s washing machine channels are not the same group of people. Tengda is more inclined towards Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia, while Aunt Wang is mainly backed by domestic personnel involved in cooperation with foreign capital.

"Like my former partner Jack Ma, Ali traveled abroad and obtained special promises by signing a letter of commitment. Ali got the sole franchise right for the overseas sales channel of e-commerce.

Everyone can see this clearly. Pinxixi International Platform has been in operation for more than a year and has invested countless funds. Even with the help of many business groups in Southeast Asia, its development is still difficult. "

Sun Tongyu sighed, "The U.S. Department of Commerce is keeping a close eye on this area, and any major move we make will be interfered with at the national level. Previously, we acquired the largest e-commerce company in Siam.

The contract was signed, but it was urgently stopped midway.

Last month, we were negotiating a merger and acquisition with a local e-commerce platform in Malaysia, but before it even started, we were interfered with by the U.S. Department of Economic Affairs’ Overseas Mergers and Acquisitions Review Committee, and the discussion ended in failure.

All these are enough to illustrate how difficult and arduous the overseas strategy is. We can only rely on our wholly-owned subsidiaries in the local area and start step by step. Fortunately, we have the support of local friends and partners, so we can go slowly. "

Returning to the topic of Temasek's choice of sides, Sun Tongyu pointed out the tricks of Aunt Wang in the gaming business. This stumble of Tenda has a great impact on Aunt Wang.

On the one hand, there is a possibility of a thorough investigation of the gaming business by the higher-ups, and on the other hand, it gives Aunt Wang an opportunity to develop her own payment channel.

Because Qingyun took the lead in building up the momentum of Internet finance and allowing more people to see the infinite economic benefits contained therein, Baidu, Sina, and Aunt Wang all began to make their own business plans.

As for Sohu's President Zhang, he had seen through it long ago. He didn't want to become a vassal puppet of some group, nor was he interested in taking the blame for others. He simply lay low out of habit.

JD.com's Liu Qiangdong wanted to do it, but he owed Qingyun a huge favor and billions of related guaranteed loans. Most of its core business suppliers were also within the Qingyun system, so he was rejected several times.

There was no movement.

Li Zehua just listened quietly to the details of the inside story without saying a word, and his expression showed no emotion. Everyone was unsure of his opinion for a moment, and the voices gradually fell silent.

"Go on, leave me alone."

Li Zehua noticed something was wrong and mentioned it casually, but seeing that everyone had serious faces, he smiled and said, "Why, isn't it normal for the opponent to fight back?
Even if something like Temasek happened, it is understandable. Without it, will we stop doing anything? "

Gu Shijie said worriedly, "Chairman, should we take a long-term view on this matter? After all, there are too many variables, and Yanjing has not made up its mind yet.

It can also be seen from the news coming from the Shanghai government that the higher-ups do not want to face an irreparable mess, and those people in Hong Kong are now in a desperate situation.

With the strong support of international public opinion and many big investors, it is unrealistic to suppress it in a short time. As you said before, appropriately withdrawing your fist is to accumulate strength for a better punch next time."

Most of the other people present here also had the same idea, because Qingyun is used to leveraging other people's strengths. In the past, many things have developed to the current stage with the strong support of Temasek.

For example, the previous fight against Ahri and the harvest in the international financial market were inseparable from the support of Temasek’s resources. Now that the biggest ally has become an opponent, how to fight?
Li Zehua glanced around, taking in everyone's reactions, and shook his head helplessly, saying, "You are all confused by the authorities, you only saw Temasek change its stance and were frightened for a moment.

Losing the ability to analyze and judge normally, I just want to ask, what is Ahri doing now?"

Sun Tongyu was stunned, but quickly reacted, "Yes, Jack Ma called me this morning and wanted to arrange a time to meet, and he sounded very anxious.

But there is no condescending attitude of a winner, but rather a sense of urgency and eagerness to seek warmth from a group after a setback. "

Wang Xing also stepped forward and said, "Someone from Goldman Sachs also came to me and said that they wanted to visit the company's headquarters to discuss cooperation. They didn't ask for the specific details, and they didn't explain it clearly. They just asked me to tell you, and you will understand."

"I know, of course I know."

Li Zehua's expression was indeed a bit strange. "The best friend went to visit the opponent's house, and the biggest enemy in turn extended an olive branch. This is a perfect proof of the saying.

This is a different time, and there is only eternal interest in the world!"

The ultimate goal of American capital is to suppress all competing countries in an all-round way and maintain its dominance in the world.

The Plaza Accord, the Mark Crisis, the Southeast Asian financial crisis, including the European debt crisis that just occurred, and the upcoming initiatives to push for a bubble in Dongda’s high-quality assets.

It's all based on this principle. Whoever is stronger is their biggest enemy. In order to better reap us, Hong Kong is another key point in their layout.

Because this is the most important channel for the entire University of Tokyo to raise funds from the world's capital markets, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is an open market for investors from all over the world.

Dongda's currency foreign exchange transactions are divided into two modes: offshore and onshore. The internationalization of RMB is to participate in the world trade settlement system through Hong Kong as a window. Yutai Capital wants to promote asset bubbles and complete the harvest. Dongda also wants to take advantage of the fire and complete industrial upgrading. Now is the time to compete with patience and layout.

If problems arise in Hong Kong, the only financial window to the outside world, or if it is even destroyed, then even if the University of Tokyo holds massive foreign exchange reserves, it will have to make compromises and give up some of its dominance in exchange for the qualification to continue to participate in international trade.

At that time, whether in Lijiaopo or any other area designated by American capital, Dongda Capital's going overseas, financing, and participating in international trade must be subject to American supervision.

By then, every time we produce or export any product, we will have to give a portion of it to American capital when making trade settlements.”

Li Zehua said this with a heavy sigh, "Destroying Hong Kong's special financial status and letting Lijiapo take its place is actually the ultimate goal of American capital. Only in this way.

Only with the RMB can smooth cross-border transactions be achieved, and all the investment returns of foreign capital in the past few decades in the country and the profits reaped from this round of bubble economy promotion can flow out unimpeded.

Otherwise, international hot money will slip in and do good things for people?

Isn't it just that they want to take advantage of the opportunity to establish greater influence while forcing the companies in which they have a stake to speak out and create public opinion, forcing the higher authorities to further relax control?

If the RMB cannot hold on and is forced to release the right to freely convertible, it won’t be long before foreign capital will cash out completely. At that time, I will be the victim and everything will be over.”

Lin Wenhui was stunned and asked subconsciously: "So, Yu Tai Capital and Jiaoben Chicken are here to help us this time?"

“It’s not really help, it’s just a coincidence, but they obviously haven’t figured out a core issue.

That is, as long as Dongda can get through this round and successfully complete industrial upgrading, relying on its strong national strength, what does it matter even if it allows Lijiaopo to become the new Asian financial center?

Just like London today, no matter how powerful it is, it can only be the leader in secondary market trading. Can it replace New York and become the world's largest primary market trader?

The highest positioning of Lijiaopo is just the second London. As Dongda continues to rise, all it needs to do is to clean up the house of Hong Kong that was left with termites during the colonial period.

If the development plan submitted by Mr. Huo and Mr. Runhua, which starts with 100,000 public housing units, is implemented, within ten years, Xiangjiang will surely surpass Lijiaopo again.

As the current world situation develops, perhaps one day Hong Kong and Pengcheng will merge, which would mean the complete rise of Todai.

After all, Pengcheng's geographical location is a bit poor. If it could move further south and form an integrated economic development with Hong Kong, it could be separated and become a new municipality directly under the central government.

It won’t take long to dilute Hong Kong’s economic structure with the mainland’s inexhaustible supply of high-quality talent.

A new Hong Kong will surpass New York and become the world's new economic center city, a metropolis that not only controls the global first-tier investment market, but also has solid technology and high-end manufacturing. "

“It’s a crazy idea to merge Silicon Valley and Wall Street into one city, but it may not be hopeless.”

Everyone present was terrified, only Zhou Shouyuan, who attended the meeting via video, applauded. However, he also raised a realistic issue, "Economic transformation requires more extensive support.

A strong executive management team is also needed, given the harsh external environment and the eager attention of squid capital and international hot money.

How can we ensure that the internationalization process of the RMB is not threatened during the transfer of Hong Kong's financial status?
You have to know that the reason why RMB has a 2% share in the international settlement system is basically obtained through the Hong Kong market. "

"It's not as fast as you think. If Hong Kong weakens a little, the Chinese concept stock market in Lijiapo will have to provide a solution. Otherwise, why was the negotiation so difficult in the first place?

Isn’t it because the financial institutions responsible for the listing of Chinese stocks have been narrowed down to five?
Lijiaopo, guarding this gold mine, can ensure that it will have no worries about food and drink and a stable status for decades to come, while Dongda can make up for the shortfall in Hong Kong's transformation by relying on this new market.

Besides, this matter will take at least 20 to 30 years to complete. We can intervene in Hong Kong’s financial transfer and upgrading process at any time, and we can just push it from behind.”

Li Zehua was full of ambition and had a domineering attitude, "Besides, this is a very good opportunity. Squid Capital, Jiaobenji, and traditional American capital will all support it.

Temasek will not interfere too much and will be very beneficial to the group as it will be able to completely suppress Tengda.

For Yan Jing, it was just a matter of cleaning up the cockroaches and rats in the house. As for whether he would admit it afterwards or have other ideas, that is a matter of opinion.

Anyway, after we have considered all aspects, we will bring it up, and the decision is something the bosses still have to worry about.”

“That’s right. For an event of this magnitude, it’s better for us to have someone at the decision-making level step forward and make the decision than for us to say a thousand words here.

No matter how bad the result is, it is better than doing nothing. As long as we can get rid of the key people, the group can also deal with the remaining obstacles on its own."

Gu Shijie finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Now that the threat from Temasek has disappeared, I feel more confident. At least I don't have to worry about being attacked from both Zhongxin and Chaozhou Capital."

Seeing that several key figures of the group had expressed their support, Li Zehua struck while the iron was hot and said, "Sun Zhengyi has arrived in Shanghai, please ask Jack Ma to come and talk, and then invite people from Goldman Sachs and Zhongxin.

By the way, I'll give a shout out to the Governor's Office and the two families in Wu Xi Diaozhou. Qingyun is also going to help the enemy."

Having said that, I always felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, mainly because joining forces with Squid Capital to deal with domestic companies, although it is a stopgap measure, it will inevitably leave traces in the future.

But he couldn't care less about that right now, because he was in a weaker position than others, and Yutai Capital happened to be thinking of replacing Xiangjiang with Lijiaopo and taking the opportunity to disrupt the internationalization process of the RMB.

Don’t miss out on such a powerful help that you have picked up for free, especially since Yanjing is here to help you control it, so there will be someone to take care of you when the time comes.

But before he could reach an agreement with several companies, Mr. Ye came to him on his own initiative because his family had close dealings with Goldman Sachs.

"You have reached a settlement with Goldman Sachs, but what about the HSBC issue?"

Facing the question, Li Zehua was well prepared, "We have been making plans for those real estate developers. As long as you and I work together to promote the transformation of Hong Kong's economy, Goldman Sachs will come forward to maintain stability.

No matter how bad the final result is, it won't cause chaos. As long as it doesn't cause chaos, Li Bancheng and the others will lose their biggest bargaining chip. HSBC can't stand alone, so how dare they refuse your request?"

"But it will cost a lot more money, don't you understand?"

Mr. Ye was also tricked by him and was very dissatisfied. "We originally agreed to buy at the bottom, but now Goldman Sachs has intervened. It would be strange if they don't compete with me. Who will pay for the extra money?"

"Where is HSBC's base? In Hong Kong, in the only financial channel, in Southeast Asia.

If you, me, Temasek, Satsuma Capital and Yanjing Capital join forces to put pressure on HSBC, do you think HSBC will have room to resist?

Even if Daiying intervenes by force, America will teach it a lesson, and I will give you my share at that time."

He dared not get involved in the Hong Kong paper voucher issuance business. He should eat as much as he could. This was not something he should touch.

Mr. Ye thought about it again and again, but he was still not satisfied. However, he was soon interrupted by Li Zehua: "Instead of wanting the controlling rights of Nanbian Finance, you might as well seize the opportunity to exchange for the opportunity of Nandian and Energy going overseas.

I believe that with such a big piece of cake, Goldman Sachs will make some compromises. As long as it controls the hydropower infrastructure in most parts of Southeast Asia, do you still worry about no one buying your bonds? "

Mr. Ye finally gave in, but he took the opportunity to take away a certain share of the US dollar bond quota from Minsheng Financial Holdings. After all, going overseas also requires money.

"As long as you are happy, I have an endless supply of hydropower resources as collateral. I will sell it to HSBC and make a profit. Whether you pay it back or not is none of my business."

Li Zehua smiled without saying anything, and turned around to do the trade. Not paying it back? That's even better. Anyway, Meizhuang's investment in HSBC is a foregone conclusion. If one of its shareholders borrowed money and didn't pay it back, who would be embarrassed if it got out? (End of this chapter)
