Huayu since 1980

Chapter 400 Hong Kong Government Dinner (4100+ chapters, please subscribe~)

Huang Tingfang looks very simple!
If he was thrown into the country like this, he might look like a farmer, but he is a billionaire super rich.

"Wu Sheng, nice to meet, nice to meet, I have always wanted to cooperate with Yaoguang Group, this time I finally met Wu Sheng!" Huang Tingfang not only looked simple, but even spoke very affectionately.

However, it is impossible for Wu Jianye to be fooled by Huang Tingfang's appearance. How could it be possible for someone who can become the top rich man in Singapore to be so simple on the outside!
"Dong Huang, you are being polite. As seniors in the industry, we newcomers should ask Huang Dong for advice!" Wu Jianye said the scene.

"Haha, Wu Sheng is being polite, now who doesn't know that Yaoguang Group is a rising star in Xiangjiang's business circle." Huang Tingfang said unhurriedly.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Wu Jianye proposed his intention to come this time.

"Mr. Huang, we Ming people don't speak dark words. We invited Mr. Huang this time because we know that Mr. Huang's Jianjian Securities holds a part of Hongkong Land. It just so happens that our Yaoguang Group is also interested in Hongkong. I don't know if Mr. Huang has any." If you are interested, we can buy the shares of Hong Kong Land in Huang Dong's hands at a premium!"

Huang Tingfang felt a turmoil in his heart. In the past two years, the real estate company that people miss most in Xiangjiang is Hong Kong Land, especially the Chinese consortium of Xiangjiang wants to take over Landmark, the pearl of Xiangjiang real estate industry.

It can be said that no matter which consortium is able to successfully acquire Landmark, it will immediately become the brightest star in the Hong Kong real estate industry.

However, although Huang Tingfang's heart was full of turmoil, his face was like water: "Wu Sheng is also interested in land?"

Wu Jianye smiled: "Yeah, didn't Keswick already talk about it? As long as the price is right, it's not impossible to talk about land."

Huang Tingfang showed a regretful expression: "Originally, Wu Sheng opened his mouth in person. In this matter, we Jianjian Securities should make friends with Wu Sheng, but just like what Wu Sheng said, Landmark and our Far East Organization are also very concerned. Interested in!"

Wu Jianye smiled indifferently: "Okay, this time it is indeed our Yaoguang Group that has been abrupt."

Huang Tingfang was taken aback by Wu Jianye's attitude, he didn't expect Wu Jianye to give up so easily.

But now that Wu Jianye had given up, Huang Tingfang stopped talking about this matter, and instead chatted with Wu Jianye about gossip in the entertainment industry.

This is also the condition for a successful businessman. He can talk to his customers, business partners, and opponents about topics that are of interest to them.

Since Wu Jianye invited Guo Desheng to the celebration banquet of "The Story of the Epilepsy" in May this year, it is no secret that Wu Jianye is in the top business circle in Xiangjiang.

And Wu Jianye, a top rich man who is clearly a director, naturally wants to talk about the entertainment industry when chatting with him.

After the two chatted for about 10 minutes, Huang Ting stood up and said goodbye.

After waiting for Huang Tingfang to leave, Yan Wen asked in a strange way: "Brother, isn't this a bit of a shocker?"

Wu Jianye smiled, asked the waiter at the Peninsula Cafe to change him a cup of tea, and said, "What I want is to scare the snake away."

Then Wu Jianye explained: "The current land is the sweet pastry in the eyes of all the top financial groups in Xiangjiang. Everyone wants to get this piece of cake. It is impossible to do it in private. Since it is impossible, then Tell everyone with great fanfare that the Yaoguang Group is here!"

Yanwen nodded half understanding.

As Wu Jianye said, the news that Yaoguang Group wanted to acquire Landmark spread throughout the Xiangjiang business community in just half a day.

On the next day, major financial newspapers and TV stations also reported on this incident. At this time, Yaoguang Group had only one listed company, Qingyao Toys.

The market value is only about one billion Hong Kong dollars, but this does not make anyone dare to underestimate Yaoguang Group, but it makes this matter even more confusing.

But one person must be happy!

Jardine Headquarters!

Simon Keswick looked at the newspaper in his hand. It was an English newspaper. The overall sales volume was not high, but it was loved by the ghosts of Xiangjiang. They liked English newspapers more than Chinese newspapers.

"I didn't expect that Yaoguang Group would also want to buy land!" Simon Keswick's voice was not high and full of amusement, with a slow-burning cigar in his hand.

Bao Weishi sat opposite him: "Isn't this better? With the addition of Yaoguang Group, the stock price of Hongkong Land has increased a lot since today, and it has officially exceeded 10 Hong Kong dollars per share!"

Simon Keswick chuckled: "Grab it, grab it, if they don't, how can Landmark's share price go up!"

At this time, Simon Keswick's secretary came in and reported: "Chairman, Liu Luanxiong from China Real Estate is here."

Simon Keswick nodded: "Please come in!"

After the secretary left, Simon Keswick smiled and said, "Another one is here to help!"

Soon Liu Luanxiong walked in. At this time, Liu Luanxiong could not see the humility in the poker game organized by Zheng Yutong. His eyebrows were slightly raised, and his heroic posture had begun to take shape.

"Chairman Liu, welcome, welcome!" Simon Keswick stood up himself, walked out of his desk, and extended his hand to welcome Liu Luanxiong.

And Liu Luanxiong also shook hands with Simon Keswick with a smile on his face.

The meeting with Simon Keswick this time was a long-standing appointment between the two, but today Liu Luanxiong's mood is more urgent. It all stems from the meeting between Wu Jianye and Huang Tingfang last night.

Liu Luanxiong, who had met Wu Jianye once in Zheng Yutong's mansion, felt uneasy. Just like other businessmen in Xiangjiang, everyone had a strong curiosity about Wu Jianye's net worth.

It is precisely because of such doubts that everyone is confused about how powerful Wu Jianye is!
Now that Wu Jianye suddenly broke into the land acquisition battle, Liu Luanxiong was naturally a little anxious.

But no matter how anxious Liu Luanxiong was in his heart, it was impossible for Liu Luanxiong to show it now.

After chatting with Simon Keswick for a few words, Liu Luanxiong talked about the issue that Chinese Land wanted to acquire 26% of the equity of Jardine Strategies.

"As I said before, land is not for sale, but we have to look at the price. I wonder what price Director Liu wants to offer?" Simon Keswick asked leisurely.

Liu Luanxiong said: "12 Hong Kong dollars per share, which has exceeded 20% of Hongkong Land's share price for a few days!"

Bao Weishi reminded: "It's gone now!"

Although Liu Luanxiong was smiling, he couldn't help scolding Wu Jianye in his heart. If it wasn't for Wu Jianye's sudden intrusion, how could Hong Kong Land's stock price rise so fast!

Simon Keswick said: "12 Hong Kong dollars per share is impossible. If Director Liu is really determined to win, this price may show that Director Liu is not sincere!"

The two parties continued to negotiate back and forth, and finally Liu Luanxiong raised the price to 16 Hong Kong dollars per share, but Simon Keswick still did not agree to this offer.

In the end, Liu Luanxiong could only leave Simon Keswick disappointed.

After Liu Luanxiong left, Simon Keswick laughed and said, "This Liu Luanxiong is about to fall behind!"

Bao Weishi chuckled: "As a new rich man, Liu Luanxiong's background is not as strong as other consortiums. I'm not surprised that he was the first to fall behind. Instead, I'm more curious about the quotations made by Li Chaoren and others at the Hong Kong Governor's Dinner tomorrow! "

Simon Keswick smiled and nodded, "Let's have a look then!"

Surrounded suddenly asked: "You said tomorrow's dinner, will Wu Jianye go?"

When the governor of Hong Kong takes office, he usually hosts a banquet and invites celebrities from the business circles of Hong Kong, and Wilson, the governor of Hong Kong who took office this year, is no exception.

At the same time, every year, the incumbent Governor of Hong Kong will also hold such a banquet.

In fact, Wei Yixin's appointment as the Governor of Hong Kong was still a bit of an accident. It was Youde who succeeded the most successful Hong Kong Governor MacLehose in Hong Kong history. Unfortunately, Youde passed away due to illness and was not in the position of Governor of Hong Kong. Finish your term.

Wei Yixin, who was ordered in danger, also officially arrived in Xiangjiang recently.

"Going?" Zhou Tao held the invitation in his hand and asked Wu Jianye for his opinion.

As the nominal general manager of Yaoguang Group, Zhou Tao naturally also received the invitation to the Hong Kong governor's dinner.

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Of course I'm going, since we've already made an appearance, there's no need to hide it, it will make us look stingy!"

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "Then go!"

The Hong Kong governor's dinner is actually equivalent to the martial arts conference in the Hong Kong business community, and the chairman of the ten most powerful companies in Hong Kong is like Shaolin and Wudang in the martial arts. Second class, third class.
However, it is precisely this level setting that makes it difficult for the person in charge of the Hong Kong Governor's Dinner, because no one knows how much wealth the Yaoguang Group actually owns.

In the past, the director of the Hong Kong Governor's dinner, the person in charge of the Yaoguang Group refused on the grounds that he was not in Xiangjiang, but this time Zhou Tao, the person in charge of the Yaoguang Group on the bright side, and Wu Jianye, the person in charge behind the rumors that have been rumored to attend at the same time this dinner.

Where should they be placed?

Is it the first table or the second table?
At this time, the person in charge is extremely hopeful that some newspapers will also announce the wealth of those unlisted companies.
Since 86, Xiangjiang has already had the ranking of consortiums and rich people.

For example, the "Chinese Journal" and "Chinese" monthly magazines ranked the top ten consortia in 86 based on the market value of the listed companies controlled by the Xiangjiang family.

Li Chaoren's Changshi line is 343 billion Hong Kong dollars, ranking first, followed by the Keswick family's Jardine family with 212 billion Hong Kong dollars, the charter king's Global line with 196 billion Hong Kong dollars, Kadoorie's China Power, Hong Kong Hotel Waiting for 187 billion Hong Kong dollars, Sze Huaiya's Swire series is 134 billion Hong Kong dollars, Guo Desheng's Sun Hung Kai series is 102 billion Hong Kong dollars, Zheng Yutong's New World series is 83 billion Hong Kong dollars, Li Zhaoji's Henderson series is 81 billion Hong Kong dollars, Chen Zengxi's Hang Lung series is 40 billion Hong Kong dollars, Sir Shao's film and television Empire 33 billion Hong Kong dollars!
This does not include public listed companies such as HSBC, nor does it include unlisted groups such as Yaoguang Group.

At the same time, in this year's "Fortune" magazine in the United States, Xiangjiang also accounted for two of the 19 super-rich people with a net worth of more than US$100 billion in the world.

Li Chaoren's 25 billion US dollars, the charter king's 10 billion US dollars!
Of course, these rankings are actually for ordinary people, and there will never be a shortage of hidden rich people in Xiangjiang.

For example, Huo Tsar, who has never been on the list, but has the prestige in the Xiangjiang business circle, no one knows how much wealth Huo Tsar has.

Later, Emperor Huo Tsar passed away, and a property dispute broke out in his family. The only announced wealth has exceeded [-] billion Hong Kong dollars, but according to Hong Kong media reports, this is only part of the many properties left by Huo Tsar.

The dinner party hasn't started yet, but many wealthy people have already arrived.

When Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao entered the arena, they clearly felt that the atmosphere in the venue fell into silence at that moment, but it immediately became lively again.

When Zheng Yutong saw Wu Jianye, he walked over with a hearty laugh.

"Wu Sheng, this time is really a rare visitor!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "As a member of Xiangjiang's business community, Yaoguang Group has the nerve to refuse such a gathering!"

Zhou Tao pouted at the side. He remembered that when Youde took office, he also sent an invitation to Yaoguang Group. When Zhou Tao asked Wu Jianye if he would participate, he looked at Wu Jianye's nonchalant expression. Look at his expression now.

Sure enough, he is a director!
Unlike Wu Jianye, who is only acquainted with Zheng Yutong and others, Zhou Tao has many old friends here, and was quickly called away by those old friends.

Zheng Yutong and Wu Jianye asked in a low voice: "Wu Sheng, is Yaoguang Group really interested in land acquisition?"

Wu Jianye did not hide Zheng Yutong, nodded: "Of course, as Hong Kong Land is the brightest pearl in the Hong Kong real estate industry, Yaoguang Group naturally hopes to get him!"

Zheng Yutong nodded and said with a smile, "That's true."

Then Zheng Yutong said with a smile: "It seems that this time we will fight with Wu Sheng's Yaoguang Group!"

Obviously Zheng Yutong also became interested in land.

"When the time comes, I ask Zheng Sheng to show mercy!" Wu Jianye said.

Zheng Yutong smiled, and there was no gap between Yaoguang Group and Wu Jianye because Yaoguang Group was going to be an enemy of New World. The most important thing was that Zheng Yutong didn't think he would lose.

Because this time it wasn't the New World Family that was going to do it.

In this battle to acquire Landmark, Li Chaoren's Chang Shi, Li Zhaoji's Henderson, New World's Zheng Yutong and CITIC formed a joint consortium!
Although everyone recognizes the strength of the Yaoguang Group, in their view, no matter how strong the Yaoguang Group is, it is impossible to match the combined strength of the four of them.

For example, Li Chaoren is representing them now, negotiating with Simon Keswick to acquire 26% of the shares held by Jardine Strategies.

And Li Chaoren's purchase price is much more generous than Liu Luanxiong's!

The price of 17 Hong Kong dollars per share!
Hearing this quotation, Paul Weiss next to Simon Keswick was already tempted. After his calculation, after the rent adjustment and other income from 1988 to 1989, HK$17 per share is completely acceptable.

However, the price given by Simon Keswick is indeed 18 Hong Kong dollars per share. He also has his own reasons. The reason is that the Keswick family has feelings for the management of Landmark, and this feeling needs to be acquired at a premium!
