Through the wealth life

Chapter 831 Investment Impact
Three days later, Li Guangyu and his family returned to London from Paris.

In the past few days, Du Yuemei has reached a series of agreements with the British government. Li Guangyu's return to London this time is mainly to attend the signing of the acquisition of Xingyuan Mining Company.

A series of cooperation between Li Guangyu and the British government also spread to Xiangjiang, which aroused very strong repercussions in Xiangjiang.

This time, the total cost of a series of investment agreements by the Lee consortium in England is close to 75 billion US dollars. Whether it is the 35 billion US dollars of Xingyuan Mining Company or the 20 billion US dollars of the Bentley Group for the expansion or acquisition of the building, it is an extremely huge amount. .

In addition, the complete ownership of the British Telecom Group this time has greatly increased the influence of the Lee Consortium in England, and it has also shocked all circles in Xiangjiang.

This investment also emptied all the profits of Li Guangyu's group. You must know that Li Guangyu made a fortune when the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate fluctuated last year. In that operation, Tianyu Bank made a profit of more than 30 billion U.S. dollars.

Li's major groups were not only not affected by the exchange rate fluctuations, but also made a lot of profits.

In the past two years, many groups have to expand and build their headquarters, so Li Guangyu still needs a loan of 30 billion US dollars from Tianyu Bank to meet all the investment this time. It is impossible for him to withdraw some funds from the group. .

Fortunately, Li Guangyu is playing from left to right. Except for the acquisition of Xingyuan Mining Company for 30 billion U.S. dollars and the other 50 shares of British Telecom for [-] billion U.S. dollars, other projects are suspended, and the money is still in Tianyu Bank.

Besides, this building does not need to prepare the money all at once, and it will be built in a few years. The Bentley Group itself can afford the funds in this regard.

Hengyu Supermarket Group is also responsible for this expansion on its own, and does not need Li Guangyu to inject capital. In addition to Xingyuan Minerals and British Telecom Group, Li Guangyu also needs to inject 10 billion US dollars into Bentley Group for the next acquisition.

In total, Li Guangyu's headquarters needs 59 billion US dollars. Li Guangyu transferred his own 30 billion US dollars from Tianyu Bank, and then borrowed 30 billion US dollars from Tianyu Bank with the shares of Hengyu Supermarket Group and Bentley Group as collateral.

Among them, [-] million US dollars is to be injected into Xingyuan Mining Company to maintain the normal operation of the company.

The helmsmen of HSBC and Standard Chartered in Xiangjiang all know the massive investment of the Lee consortium this time, which shows that the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars has opened the door to Tianyu Bank, and the British side will no longer be an obstacle.

They are obviously unwilling to let other people come in to share this power with them. Tianyu Bank is now stronger than the two major banks, but it does not have the right to issue Hong Kong dollar notes. In the Hong Kong financial circle, many things and some rules are still The two of them have the final say, and in terms of status, HSBC and Standard Chartered still occupy the top spot of Xiangjiang Financial.

And once Tianyu Bank has the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars, the two of them will not be able to enjoy some special treatment exclusively, and the financial circle of Hong Kong will also undergo changes. It is impossible for them to continue to maintain their current status.

Stick Sutherland has served as the chairman of the board of directors of HSBC Bank for more than half a year, and now he has completely controlled the situation of HSBC Bank, and the senior management of HSBC Bank has also undergone some changes.

As the largest shareholder of HSBC, he naturally does not want other banks to share the benefits of the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars.

After the news came from England, he immediately contacted George Lavin, the head of Hong Kong, Standard Chartered Bank, to discuss how to deal with the crisis.

This time, in the eyes of Stick Sutherland and George Lavin, Tianyu Bank is a very big threat to them this time.

On the morning of May 5 in Xiangjiang, some newspapers in Xiangjiang reported extensively on the financial situation in Xiangjiang.

The theme is that the current financial situation in Xiangjiang is very stable. Maintaining the stability of Xiangjiang's financial structure means maintaining the stability of Xiangjiang's economic development. It is not easy to stabilize the situation, and his heart can be punished.

At the same time, the report also specifically suggested that the Hong Kong Financial Management Authority must put the interests of the more than 500 million citizens of Hong Kong as the most important thing, and not be disturbed by some forces. Stability of Hong Kong's finance is the top priority.

On that morning, because it was still early in the morning in London, Li Xuemei from Xiangjiang didn't wake up Li Guangyu. She specially held a press conference, accompanied by Luo Qianwen, Executive Vice President of Tianyu Financial Group.

At the press conference, Li Xuemei said: "Today, I am holding this press conference on behalf of Li's industry, mainly to talk about our views on Xiangjiang's financial aspects."

"We have noticed today that some newspapers have expressed their views on the current situation, and many of them point directly at Li's Enterprises and Tianyu Financial Group. Our Tianyu Bank has been working hard to have the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars, so as to break the current HSBC and Tianyu Financial Group. The two banks of Standard Chartered monopolize this right, so that the financial situation in Xiangjiang can be more stable, and ensure that our Chinese capital can have a certain initiative in this regard."

……

After Li Xuemei explained Li's consortium's own views, the reporters present began to ask questions.

Among them, a reporter from Oriental Daily asked: "Ms. Li, we have just received news from London that Li Sheng has reached a series of investment agreements with the London government during his inspection in London. According to the news from the British official media, it is estimated that The investment amount this time is as high as 75 billion U.S. dollars, this time such a large-scale overseas investment, at such a time, the Lee consortium has invested such a large amount of money in England, what is your plan?"

The Li Consortium has always been very cautious in doing things. According to common sense, Li Guangyu should not have appeared in London during this period, let alone invest such a large amount of funds in England.

You must know that since Li Guangyu went to England in 80, he has not been to England for a full four years, just to avoid unnecessary troubles. The media group under the Lee consortium has always been very cautious and never went to Express some biased opinions.

Li Xuemei knew what these people were thinking, not only these reporters, but also many Xiangjiang residents were extremely puzzled, why would Li Guangyu break the strategy he had been insisting on for several years in this special period.

"Our Li's company's investment in England this time is a normal business behavior, without any political purpose or other attempts. I hope you don't interpret it too much. The consistent purpose of our Li's company will not change. We As a business, we will never get involved in politics."

Faced with Li Xuemei's statement, the reporters in Xiangjiang didn't quite believe it. Li's consortium had just reached an investment agreement with the British government, and Xiangjiang immediately reported accusing Li's consortium and Tianyu Financial Group of destroying Xiangjiang's financial order.

It would be no wonder if the Lee consortium just invested normally and had no other purpose this time. Everyone in Hong Kong knows that the Li consortium has always hoped to break the monopoly of HSBC and Standard Chartered on the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars.

Otherwise, it would not have been reported by some newspapers just now, and the Li's consortium would have jumped out immediately.In the morning, the newspapers did not mention the names of Li's consortium and Tianyu Financial Group. This is obviously the Li's consortium.

As for whether the Lee consortium has any other purpose besides the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong dollars, they don't know for the time being.
