Chapter 904 The Cold Shipping Market

After this topic was settled, Huo Yingdong said to several people present: "The time for Xiangjiang to return to the mainland has been set. Regarding how Xiangjiang will develop in the future, the central government hopes to hear your opinions. Xiangjiang is the Xiangjiang of the motherland, and it is also our common Xiangjiang, only if we strengthen communication and work together, can Xiangjiang develop better in the future.

Entrusted by him this time, I invite everyone to go to the capital next month, and many leaders of the central government will have talks with you. "

Everyone in the mainland market attaches great importance to it, and Xiangjiang, as the place where everyone started, is also the fundamental reason. They naturally hope that Xiangjiang will develop better and better, so for this invitation, Lee Shau Kee, Zheng Yutong and others readily agreed.

It’s just that Li Guangyu is in a bit of trouble here. He plans to fly directly to Paris on the 28th, and plans to make a bargain in Western Europe. This opportunity is not easy. In the past few years, the wave of privatization in Western Europe has been very violent. this shop.

At present, the market value of many good companies is still very low, which is very suitable for Li Guangyu to sell. If it is postponed in a few years, Li Guangyu may have to pay billions of dollars more.

Li Guangyu said: "Huo Sheng, accepting the invitation of the new French Prime Minister Jacques Chirac, will inspect the French market on the 28th of this month. I wonder when will I go to the capital?"

Huo Yingdong still knows some things about the Li's consortium very well. Over the past year, the power of the Li's consortium's political research office has expanded very rapidly. This time, French Prime Minister Chirac was elected, and the Li's consortium also made a lot of efforts behind it. Not to mention the financial support for the election, its subsidiaries are also canvassing for it.

The Li's Consortium is no longer the business group it used to be that doesn't care about political affairs. There are members of the Li's Consortium's Political Research Office in many countries.

Fortunately, the Li's Consortium is only conducting some reasonable operations in these capitalist countries, and has not maliciously subverted the political power in some areas. Otherwise, the Li's Consortium is definitely an extremely dangerous consortium.

Now the Li's consortium is more and more like the American consortium and the Japanese consortium, that is, the Li's consortium is located in Xiangjiang. If it is in some capitalist countries, perhaps that country will also be controlled by the Li's consortium like the United States, Japan, and South Korea.

Huo Yingdong knew that the development of the consortium would eventually go this way. Whether it was to compete for the market or to be able to control the initiative, they would want to control it in their own hands, so that they could rest assured.

Since the U.S. government specifically targeted the Li Consortium, the style of the Li Consortium has completely changed. Huo Yingdong is not sure whether this change is good or bad. As long as Li Guangyu does not violate the interests of the motherland, he will not pay more. Moreover, he was not qualified to comment on Li Guangyu.

Huo Yingdong said: "Guangyu, our plan is April 4. If you don't plan to stay in Western Europe for a long time, you should be able to attend."

Li Guangyu is expected to stay in Western Europe for half a month this time, and he has plenty of time. Except for the military parade in 84, he has never been to the capital.

After Huo Yingdong's own affairs were completed, he stopped being the protagonist and listened to the discussions of these Xiangjiang business elites.

Bao Yugang said, "Wen Jin, the current shipping winter is still going on, and I don't know when it will be the top. I don't know what your plan is for Wanbang Shipping. At present, Dong's family is facing difficulties. Relationship, I can take care of the Dong family's kid."

At present, global shipping has fallen into a freezing point, and many shipping companies around the world have declared bankruptcy, including many regional and even world-renowned companies.

When the Dong family was reducing the size of their fleet, they expanded a lot, so that their development is now struggling.

As a competitor and old friend for many years, Bao Yugang couldn't bear to see the foundation created by Dong Haoyun disappear like this. He hoped that everyone could contribute a little to help the Dong family overcome this difficulty.

Cao Wenjin said: "Yugang, I guess shipping has not improved in the past few years. I only hope that it will pick up in the 90s. At present, IWC Shipping has not many fleets, but it can barely operate. Now the Dong family can only cut off their wrists. The huge fleet in hand will only be a drag, and the annual maintenance cost alone is a huge figure.”

Cao Wenjin also wanted to help the Dong family, but he was powerless. At this time, his own fleet could barely support him, so he had no ability to take care of the Dong family's fleet.

Bao Yugang found the wrong person for this matter, and now only Li Guangyu can give some help. The Hengyu Supermarket under the Li's consortium is constantly expanding, and the demand for logistics continues to increase. Let some business be given to the Dong family. The Eastern Shipping Group is still available.

Although Li Guangyu was his son-in-law, he couldn't directly make decisions for Li Guangyu, and Cao Wenjin could only express his helplessness.

And this time, not only the Dong family is facing great difficulties, but also the Zhao family. Huaguang Shipping is also facing great pressure. If they help, they can't just help the Dong family and not take care of the Zhao family.

Huo Yingdong said: "Since Haoyun left suddenly, the Dong family boys have been working very hard to maintain the industry of the Eastern Shipping Group. We all developed in Xiangjiang. We are both Chinese families. Most of you are from their families. My elders, if you have the ability, I hope you can lend a helping hand."

Most of the people here are real estate groups, and they have no need for this at all, even if they have the heart but not the strength.

Feng Jingyao said: "Yingdong, you also know that our main business is basically real estate and finance. We can't help in other places, but we can still support it in terms of funds. If the Dong family needs it, we Xiangjiang Bank can provide it." A loan of [-] million US dollars to relieve the pressure on the Dong family."

Huo Yingdong and Bao Yugang did not expect such a big surprise. A loan of [-] million US dollars is enough for the Eastern Shipping Group to solve many difficulties.

At this time, Xiangjiang Bank can lend [-] million US dollars to Eastern Shipping, which is a very big favor.

Bao Yugang said: "Jingyao, thank you very much for your support. I believe that the Dong family boys will remember your kindness and kindness. In the future, the Dong family industry will strengthen cooperation with your Xiangjiang Bank."

Feng Jingyao responded: "Our Xiangjiang Huazi family has always worked together. This time the Dong family encountered difficulties. We have the ability to help, so naturally we have to help."

Zhao Congyan was listening to Xiangjiang Bank granting such a large loan to the Dong family, and he was very envious. His Zhao family was also under a lot of pressure, and he regretted his choice at the beginning. If he had learned from Wanbang, Universal, and Wheelock earlier The company has downsized like that, and it will not face such a dilemma now.

Seeing Zhao Congyan's hesitant expression, Li Guangyu knew what was going on in his heart, and said to him, "Uncle Zhao, I know that Huaguang Shipping is also in difficulty, and our Tianyu Bank is willing to give you a loan of [-] million US dollars to assist Huaguang. Shipping gets through this crisis."

Zhao Congyan said excitedly: "Guangyu, thank you so much. With your support, I don't need to tear down the east wall to make up for the west. At present, I am disposing of the ship in my hand at a low price, but the whole market is not very good at present. Well, it will be difficult to make a move for a while."
