The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 586 Forced to Become a Spear (Two in One)

The news that several major shareholders of Global Shipping and Xianghua Bank intend to sell their shares has once again caused shock in all circles in Xiangjiang. the end.

In the future, there will only be Donghua, Nanjiang, Xinhong, and Dongya in Hong Kong's local consortiums, and Xianghuahui will no longer have any qualifications to be tied with these few.

Compared with all parties, Li Jianhui is undoubtedly much calmer, and he has no interest in Global Shipping or Xianghua Bank.

Although Wei Li and Chen Huiya approached Li Jianhui separately, they hoped that the group under their jurisdiction could acquire the bank to make up for this shortcoming.

Among the [-] holding groups under the Xinjian Department, only Wheelock Holdings and Whampoa Holdings have no banks.

Every president hoped that Li Jianhui could approve their acquisition or build a new bank for their own group, but without exception, they were all rejected by Li Jianhui, and it was the same this time.

To be honest, the appearance of Wheelock Holdings and Huangpu Holdings was an accident. At first, Li Jianhui did not plan these two, but planned to be under the jurisdiction of Xinjian Holdings.

It was only because of the follow-up development, coupled with the emergence of those industries that were secretly deployed, and some adjustments, that these two holding groups were on an equal footing with the other dozen or so companies.

But in Xiangjiang, there are five major holding groups. Xinjian, Yuntao, and Xingsha have banks under the three major groups, which seems a bit too much. If there are two more, it will be a waste of resources.

Moreover, Li Jianhui is currently considering merging Ka Wah Bank, a subsidiary of Xingsha Holdings Group, with Union Bank, a subsidiary of Yuntao Holdings, in order to reduce management costs and make the bank bigger and stronger.

If the senior executives of the Xinjian Department still have a little thought about Xianghua Bank, then they have no thoughts about global shipping. With the Xinjian Department of Whampoa Shipping and even Donghua Club, there is no need to add a new shipping group , especially in the current situation where shipping is heading for a cold winter.

It's just that the Xinjian department didn't plan to intervene, but the other party came to the door. On the afternoon when the news came out, Chartered Ship King, Huo Yingdong and Wu Xuyi came together.

After inviting the three of them to sit in the reception area of ​​the office, Li Jianhui asked aloud, "The three of you came here during your busy schedule, what's the matter?"

"Li Sheng, we also know that your time is precious, so we don't say those polite words. We came to visit you today, mainly to know whether Li Sheng is interested in our global shipping, Xianghua Bank, and Yingdong's Central. Pedder Building and Manson Building in Tsim Sha Tsui are interested."

"Bao Sheng, we all know the basics, and I know your thoughts very well. At present, in Xiangjiang, if you have enough cash to win your industries, it may be the Xinjian Department. This is also the main reason why you came here today.

But you have to be clear, we are all businessmen, not philanthropists. Except for Huo Sheng’s two buildings, no matter your global shipping or Xianghua Bank, which is jointly controlled by you, are all important to our Xinjian Department and even Donghua Club. There is no benefit.

As for the sale of only two buildings, although the property market in Xiangjiang is still not very good, the location of these two buildings is very good. I also believe that as long as you are willing to sell, there will be many willing to take over. "

The three of Huo Baowu fell into silence when they heard this. They came here this time mainly because they hoped that Li Jianhui could take over Global Shipping and Xianghua Bank. The two buildings were just incidental.

Moreover, although these two buildings are called buildings, because they were built in the 60s and [-]s, they only have six floors, and the area is not too large, so the location is good, and they are worth a little money.

The main bulk of the sale this time is Global Shipping and Xianghua Bank. Only when these two companies are successfully sold will there be enough funds to reverse the current unfavorable situation of Xianghua Club.

Just looking around Xiangjiang, the only one with enough cash to win these two companies is the Xinjian Department, and the Xinjian Department will definitely be able to revitalize these two companies, and this is the last contribution they can make to the shareholders.

It's a pity that Li Jianhui's response disappointed them. Obviously, Li Jianhui didn't intend to give them and the shareholders a hand.

As for saying that it is not beneficial to the Xinjian Department, in their view, it is just Li Jianhui's evasive words.

You must know that the East China Association industry is continuing to expand. The trade volume between the Aodong Trading Group and the Warsaw Pact member countries is setting new records every month. The Huangpu Shipping Group is already renting ships because of a large amount of business. This is in the Xinjian Department. It is unthinkable to say.

You must know that starting from Li Jianhui, those who can buy will never consider renting. For example, Xiangjiang Airlines, all aircraft are purchased, and they are all new aircraft. Cathay Pacific and Hongya Airlines, which are also located in Xiangjiang, some of the aircraft are not owned by themselves. , but charter aircraft from other airlines.

When they established Kowloon Airlines, they leased them directly, which is why they were able to put Kowloon Airlines into operation earlier than Xiangjiang Airlines.

Xin Jian's acquisition of Global Shipping has a business to support the company, and it can also make a lot of profits.

Xianghua Bank is not saying that Xinjian will be sold. If either Whampoa Holdings or Wheelock Holdings wins, relying on the group's properties will be enough to support the development of Xianghua Bank.

For example, under Wheelock Holdings, Lane Crawford has a market value of more than [-] billion Hong Kong dollars, Wheelock Land and Watsons have a market value of more than [-] billion Hong Kong dollars, and there are tens of billions of market value. In terms of logistics, Wheelock Holdings itself has a market value close to [-] billion Hong Kong dollars.

And this is the reason why Wheelock Holdings is continuously reducing the shares of several major companies under its umbrella. Otherwise, it is not impossible for Wheelock Holdings to catch up with HSBC in market value.

"Li Sheng, I don't know why you have such big opinions on us. If you want to say that it's because we are at odds with each other on the issues of right and wrong, that's understandable.

But judging from your investment in the north, you have not been influenced by Tiao Jingling's thoughts. In terms of entering the northern market, you can even be said to be more radical than us.

It stands to reason that our interests should be the same, even if we cannot become allies of the life and death phase, we should not be in hostility.

Now our industry has basically withdrawn from the Xiangjiang market, and it will not affect Li Sheng's layout in the Xiangjiang market. I wonder if Li Sheng can help me? "

Li Jianhui was a little skeptical at this time. These few people who came to visit today were afraid that selling property to him was just incidental. The most important thing was to find out his attitude and thoughts.

After pondering for a moment, Li Jianhui said: "I am glad that the construction department is based on the Greater China market. This is not a fool, but a fact, but the most important market in the Greater China has not been able to open for a long time. Someone acts as a pioneer.

I tried it before, but you all know the result, so I need some people to go ahead, and you are the best choice.

I know your thinking, unless it is absolutely necessary, you hope to follow the high-level strategy in the north and take your time. There is no rush there for the time being, and you can slowly accumulate experience.

When you have no other way out, you can only be forced to enter the northern market on a large scale. It is impossible for the high-level officials in the north to watch you go to a dead end, so some industries will be released for your development.

And for the sake of our own reputation and justice, once we let go of you, it means letting go of Xiangjiang, Lisboa, and Baodao. Enterprises in Xiangjiang, Lisboa, and Formosa will be treated differently.

As for the result, you have also seen it now. The theaters have entered, and the products produced by the factory in Pengcheng are no longer imported products.

Although you may be dissatisfied with me now, or even hold grudges in your heart, after [-] years, you will all thank me. The northern market is the paradise for your development. At this time, if you enter on a large scale, the future will bring you Return dozens or even hundreds of times of income. "

They were very hurt when they heard Li Jianhui's words. It turned out that everything happened because Li Jianhui asked them to be a spear in their hands to help him pry open the door of the northern market.

Because they are biased towards the north and maintain a good friendship with the high-level officials in the north, they have been targeted and forced to enter the northern market on a large scale.

Especially when Li Jianhui said that forcing them to enter the northern market was for their own good, it almost made them angry. They couldn't understand how there could be such a shameless person.

You must know that because of Li Jianhui, many of their core industries were forced to sell. These industries in Xiangjiang either chose to withdraw, or dragged on half-dead.

The Chartered Ship King said: "Li Sheng's deeds and words are really beyond our reach. Since Li Sheng is so optimistic about the northern market, he also believes that we can gain dozens or even hundreds of times in the future when we enter the northern industry. I don't know Li. Would you like to buy a part of our shares in the northern market industry?"

"I am naturally interested in making money, but a solo release is not spring, and I can't make all the money, let alone monopolize the market, so that I will eat too much in the end and I will only be exhausted.

There is no need to invest in shares. I hope that both of us can compete to develop in the northern market. Only in this way can our industry develop for a long time. "

Huo Bao and the others were in no mood to listen to Li Jianhui's nonsense anymore. Anyway, in terms of language, they didn't think they could speak better than Li Jianhui.

It can be said that none of the purposes of coming here today have been achieved. Li Jianhui will neither buy their property nor stop suppressing them.

Before the strength is not as good as Donghuahui, they can only be forced to become a spear for Donghuahui to pry open the northern market.

They can even imagine that the two major industries of textile and clothing and cinema that they are currently entering will also be suppressed and targeted by the Donghua Association. The purpose is to force them to enter as many industries as possible in the northern market.

Perhaps the only good news is that Li Jianhui doesn't pay as much attention to the northern market as he appears on the outside.

I didn't pay attention to it before, but it was because the industry couldn't enter. Once the restrictions are relaxed, the northern market will inevitably become one of the core markets of the Xinjian Department.

Although what Li Jianhui said meant that the future would be infinitely bright, what Huo Bao and others need to solve now is to go down. If they can't survive now, how can they talk about the future.

Moreover, they will not fully believe what Li Jianhui said. The young Li Jianhui's personality can be described as capricious, especially for the attitude of the North, they simply cannot judge whether it is true or false.

When he was leaving, the Chartered Ship King said, "I'm really sorry for delaying Li Sheng for so long today.

It’s just that Wanshi still hopes that Li Sheng can have a certain degree. We have always been extremely willing to enter the northern market, but Li Sheng should know that too much haste may have the opposite effect.

If it exceeds that speed, it is very likely that chickens will be beaten by chickens and eggs. Not to mention what will happen to the north, Li Sheng's investment will also be in vain.

Li Sheng needs to give us time, and also needs to give time to the north. Only in this way can the road be stable and everyone can achieve a win-win situation. "

Li Jianhui naturally knows that the north is not all smooth sailing, and there are even a lot of turmoil, but he can't be in a hurry here.

Especially since last September, the dollar has been depreciating continuously, making Li Jianhui feel that the 87 global stock market crash may come earlier because of his butterfly effect.

Although there is no Plaza Accord in this life, the effect of the Plaza Accord has already taken place. The Japanese Yen, West Deutsche Mark, British Pound, French Franc, and even the Hong Kong Dollar and Taiwan Dollar are all appreciating, especially the Japanese Yen, which has appreciated very rapidly in the past six months. is also growing rapidly.

What Li Jianhui is most worried about now is that the bones of several major consortia in Japan have been broken in the past two years. By then, the northern market will not open, and the Xinjian Department will be in big trouble.

Without the support of the northern market, facing the siege of the three major capitals of the United States, Japan, and South Korea, the Xinjian Department will not die or will be half disabled.

Especially in the past six months, the relationship between the British Rose Consortium and the Xinjian Department has no longer been so friendly. Once the Xinjian Department is in a weak position, the other party is likely to rush forward and bite.

"I also know what Bao Sheng said, but it's still what I said to you. The time left for me by the American consortium and the Japanese consortium is running out. Maybe the two parties will turn hostility into friendship at some point. I don't have time to come. Wait slowly, I must have enough market to deal with the American and Japanese consortia.

At present, the development strategy of the Xinjian Department will not change. While stabilizing the Taiwan and Southeast Asian markets, it will develop the Commonwealth market, open up the Warsaw Pact member countries and the northern market.

If you don't want your own capital and industry to stagnate, then you can only continue to develop in the northern market and strive to enter more industries, or you can only wait for the end of your business to close down.

Of course, if you develop the real estate industry in the north, then take it as if I didn’t say that. After all, our Xinjian Department is still unable to dominate the market in this area. "

Although they were very angry at Li Jianhui's actions in their hearts, the three of Huo Baowu didn't say any more, turned and left Li Jianhui's office.

They are powerless in the Xiangjiang market, and currently they don't have enough strength to fight back in the northern market.

But they believe that with the development of the northern market, their strength will increase rapidly, and when they have a chance in the future, they don't mind stabbing Xin Jianxie in the back to avenge today's revenge.
