Chapter 197 Confrontation at HSBC
HSBC executives had a meeting all morning, but no specific measures were discussed. Shen Bi decided to play by ear when he met with the two groups in the afternoon.
Shen Bi also knew that in the current situation, meeting with either company alone would not solve the problem, so he notified the senior management of the Li Group and the Jardine Group that he would meet with the two groups at three o'clock in the afternoon to decide which company to transfer the shares to. group.
At 45:60 in the afternoon, Li Guangyu's motorcade arrived at the HSBC Building. This old building seems to be no longer compatible with the status of HSBC Bank. Therefore, HSBC plans to build a new HSBC Building this year, and the investment is even more As high as [-] billion Hong Kong dollars, it will be the tallest building in Hong Kong after completion.
Li Xuemei and Guo Fengtao also accompanied Li Guangyu to HSBC to participate in the acquisition of HSBC's shares.
Just as Li Guangyu got off the car, the car of Niu Bijian and others also arrived at the HSBC Building.
After Niu Bijian and his party got off the car, they met Li Guangyu and his party outside the gate of HSBC Building.Seeing this situation, the staff who were waiting outside to welcome them immediately greeted them and said, "Sheng Li, Mr. Newbigan, our chairman is already waiting for your arrival in the conference room."
Li Guangyu said: "Thank you for waiting here, let's go in."
Li Xuemei and Guo Fengtao accompanied Li Guangyu into the HSBC Building, and ignored Niu Bijian and the others.
After coming to the conference room, Li Guangyu said to Shen Bi: "Chairman Shen, why do you say it is so troublesome? Our Li Group is very sincere. You just need to transfer the shares of these two groups to us. It's good for all of us."
Niu Bijian came in ahead of Li Guangyu, Li Xuemei, and Guo Fengtao, and he followed with people from the Jardine Group.
After Li Guangyu said this, without waiting for Shen Bi to reply, he said: "Mr. Li, I'm afraid you will be disappointed this time. These two groups were managed by Jardine Matheson before, and HSBC was in the management of these two groups." The cooperation has always been very pleasant, and I think HSBC will hand over the shares to us, which will also benefit the management and development of the two groups.”
Li Xuemei immediately retorted: "In terms of the development of Xiangjiang Company, no one can match Li Sheng. Our major groups under Li's have grown from scratch, but in just over two years, they have grown to their current scale. I believe that the two groups of Heung Kong Electric and Heung Kong Telephone will be more beneficial to the two groups only if they are handed over to us."
After hearing what Li Xuemei said, several people from Jardine Group really couldn't refute it.Li Guangyu is really dazzling in this aspect, his development in just over two years is worth the efforts of several generations of many families.
Now Li Guangyu's major groups have achieved good results. Even Jiayi Group has benefited from the favorable stock market in Hong Kong and the brilliant achievements of Li Guangyu's major groups. The stock market value has also continued to rise. Now it has reached 29.4 per share. Seeing The market value is close to 30 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Seeing the tense situation between the two sides, Shen Bi immediately said: "Li Sheng, Mr. Niu Bijian, everyone sit down, have a sip of tea first, we are talking slowly."
After sitting down, Li Guangyu said to Shen Bi: "Chairman Shen, our Li Group and your HSBC have always been very happy to cooperate. This time I also hope that we can still cooperate happily."
Newbijian didn't intend to ask HSBC to answer Li Guangyu's topic, otherwise the Jardine Group would be very passive.
Niu Bijian said: "Chairman Shen, you need to know that our Jardines is also very happy with your HSBC and we have one of our Jardines serving as an independent director in your HSBC. I hope that Chairman Shen can continue to support our Jardines." Take charge of both groups."
Shen Bi was very helpless being sandwiched between the Li Group and the Jardine Group. Although he was the king of HSBC and was in charge of the giant HSBC, he could not offend these two groups easily.Now the two groups have become a contest between the British-funded consortium and the Chinese-funded consortium. Whichever side HSBC favors is not the result HSBC wants.
Li Guangyu said to Niu Bijian: "Mr. Niu Bijian, I think it's better for you to look at Wharf, which is much more important than these two groups."
"Li Sheng, you don't need to worry about the Wharf issue for us. We believe that the Jardine Matheson Group has the strength to hold on to its own conglomerate. It cannot be taken by just anyone. Li Sheng should let it go as soon as possible." Newbigan replied.
Li Guangyu smiled and said, "Mr. Newbigan is full of confidence in the Jardine Group. I really hope that your confidence can be maintained forever. I just don't know how much authority the Keswick family has given you to deal with us. Li's group competes, and you must know that the Keswick family invited you to be the chairman of Jardine because it is to make money, not to spend money."
When Niu Bijian heard Li Guangyu say this, although his face was still confident, his heart was not so natural.Today, the prices of these two groups have almost doubled compared to before, and as public utility groups, their profits are restricted by the Xiangjiang government, and their annual profits cannot exceed 15%.
Although the Keswick family now supports his action plan, if the profits are not satisfactory in the future, he estimates that this position will not be stable.
Newbijian said: "There is no need for Li Sheng to worry about these issues. Since I am doing this, I am naturally authorized by the Keswick family and other shareholders of Jardine. Besides, we are not like Li Sheng. The group that knows whether it can hold a controlling stake has spent more than 80 billion yuan, and I don't know if Li Sheng will regret it in the future."
Li Guangyu said with a smile: "I don't care. Anyway, the money is my own. As long as I am happy, I am not responsible to anyone. Besides, it is only more than 80 billion yuan. My group has spent half a year. In terms of earning back, I think Chairman Shen is very aware of our capabilities, and the accounts of our Li Group basically come from HSBC."
Not to mention how Niu Bijian felt when he heard Li Guangyu's words, Shen Bi knew the meaning of Li Guangyu's words.If HSBC does not help Li Guangyu with such a huge turnover of the Li Group this time, it will be hard to say what will happen in the future.
Shen Bi said: "Mr. Li, Mr. Niu Bijian, regarding how we, HSBC, will dispose of the shares of these two groups, our high-level meetings have different opinions, and we have not yet discussed a specific plan. And you I also hope that HSBC can give you an answer immediately."
"Now the battle between your two groups is no longer related to your two groups. I have received dozens of calls in the past two days, all of which are about how to deal with the shares in our HSBC. Now my pressure It's also very big."
Li Guangyu is very clear that the current situation in Hong Kong is very delicate. On the one hand, the British and the mainland are negotiating the Hong Kong issue, and on the other hand, the rise of the Chinese-funded consortium is beginning to attack the British-funded consortium.Especially for people like Li Guangyu, the British consortium is very wary of them.
Li Guangyu said: "Chairman Shen, if you are unable to make a decision, we can carry out commercial operations. Whoever offers the highest price will transfer the shares to him. In order to solve your troubles as soon as possible, I suggest that you make a decision now." It can be operated. And we pay in person, which is better for everyone."
