Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 124 Li Jiacheng's Calculation

The 9000 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa held by HSBC were sold to Lin Baicheng for HK$7.15, and the transaction price was HK$6.435 million.

However, after signing this transaction contract, Lin Baicheng immediately signed a contract with HSBC to mortgage 9000 million Hutchison Whampoa shares for a loan of HK$10 billion.As a result, Lin Baicheng didn't spend a penny, but the available funds were 3.565 million Hong Kong dollars more.

Of course, the price is that Lin Baicheng has an extra loan of 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.And after he takes control of Hutchison Whampoa, he will push the board of directors to borrow another 5 million Hong Kong dollars from HSBC, but this time the loan is from Hutchison Whampoa, not Lin Baicheng himself.

Now Lin Baicheng has more funds at his disposal.

Not counting Wharf shares first, Lin Baicheng, a Hutchison Whampoa stock, stopped selling after selling 280 million shares, and returned nearly 2000 million Hong Kong dollars.

In the company Cangjiang Industrial, Lin Baicheng spent a total of about 1.4 million Hong Kong dollars to buy 790 million shares, accounting for a total of 19.75% of the company's shares.

林佰诚此前从渣打银行和三菱银行贷款到的资金是11.4亿港币，买了沧江实业股份后刚好剩下10亿港币左右。如今又多出了将近3.6亿港币的资金，加上和记黄埔卖出回笼的将近2000万港币资金, 他可以动用的资金便是13.8亿港币左右。

As for the shares of Hutchison Whampoa, Lin Baicheng originally held 1400 million shares. After selling 280 million shares, the remaining 1120 million shares accounted for 2.8% of the total share capital, plus the 22.5% shares bought from HSBC. The total is 25.3% of the shares.

This shareholding ratio has already surpassed the Hutchison Whampoa shares held by the Qi Dezun family, but it should not be careless, because the Qi Dezun family also holds about 20% of the Hutchison Whampoa shares, not much less than Lin Baicheng.

……

Cangjiang Industry.

"Mr. Li, I got it."

The door of the chairman's office was pushed open, Li Jiacheng's important assistants, two executives of Cangjiang Industrial, Li Yeguang and Mai Liyin walked in.

"Tell me about the situation."

Li Jiacheng got up from the office chair and walked towards the sofa.

Li Yeguang and Mai Liyin also went to sit down, and Li Yeguang said: "Lin Baicheng signed a contract with HSBC not long ago, but the person we are looking for is not high enough, so we cannot determine the specific content of the contract. But there are One thing is for sure, since Lin Baicheng made a transaction with HSBC under Bao Yugang's matchmaking line, it is unlikely that he and Bao Yugang will compete for Wharf. There must be a relationship between Lin Baicheng and Bao Yugang related agreements."

"The Wharf stock hasn't moved a bit in the past two days. Bao Yugang took Lin Baicheng to HSBC, so I knew something was wrong. As expected. Wharf is extremely important to Bao Yugang, so the acquisition of Wharf It should be Bao Yugang, but Lin Baicheng has shifted his target to another company, but he doesn’t know which company it is.”

After selling the shares of Wharf to Bao Yugang, and found that Bao Yugang just replied and Lin Baicheng was still talking, Li Jiacheng realized that something was wrong, and then asked people to investigate and found Lin Baicheng, Bao Yugang and HSBC The three banks interacted and negotiated, but the Wharf takeover battle he was looking forward to did not happen.

Li Jiacheng originally thought that Lin Baicheng was determined to win Wharf, and Bao Yugang also attached great importance to Wharf. The possibility of a takeover battle between the two was extremely high, but he did not expect that they did not know what agreement they had reached, which made Lin Baicheng look away from Nine Dragons. The warehouse was transferred to another company.

Now, Lin Baicheng has even signed a contract with HSBC to complete the transaction, so that Lin Baicheng will not participate in the acquisition of Wharf.Even if there will be a takeover war in Wharf after that, it will be the matter of Bao Yugang and Jardine Matheson, and has nothing to do with Lin Baicheng.

The reason why Li Jiacheng did not choose to sell the shares of Wharf to Lin Baicheng was because he wanted to find a rival for Lin Baicheng and let Lin Baicheng and Bao Yugang compete.Either Lin Baicheng still won Wharf, but because of Bao Yugang's opponent, he will consume more funds; or Lin Baicheng failed in the acquisition, and it was Bao Yugang who won Wharf.

It would be better if Lin Baicheng failed in the acquisition. Lin Baicheng spent a lot of money on the company Wharf but failed to gain control, which hit his opponent Lin Baicheng.

That's right, since Lin Baicheng secretly bought the shares of Cangjiang Industrial and coerced him to sell the shares of Wharf, Li Jiacheng regarded Lin Baicheng as an opponent. Naturally, Lin Baicheng couldn't make it easy for commercial enemies.

More importantly, the Wharf acquisition battle broke out. No matter who wins or loses, the remaining Wharf shares in Li Jiacheng's hands will not only allow him to recover the cost of his investment, but also allow him to make a fortune.

No matter how you think about it, it is beneficial to Li Jiacheng.

But Li Jiacheng never imagined that Lin Baicheng and Bao Yugang had reached an agreement, Lin Baicheng changed his target, prepared to acquire other companies, and gave up Wharf easily.

If he knew this was the case, Li Jiacheng could reach an agreement with Lin Baicheng himself, buy the shares of Wharf from Lin Baicheng, and then compensate Lin Baicheng.Although he already regarded Lin Baicheng as an opponent at that time, this did not prevent him from cooperating or reaching an agreement with Lin Baicheng. As long as it is profitable, it is nothing to shake hands temporarily.

Unexpectedly, when the two of them talked that day, Lin Baicheng's attitude was so firm. After the object was changed from him to Bao Yugang, Lin Baicheng's attitude changed immediately, and he reached an agreement with Bao Yugang.

Mai Liyin said aloud: "Lin Baicheng originally wanted to acquire Wharf, so even if he changed his target, the target of the transfer must be a big company that is not inferior to Wharf, and HSBC must hold a lot of shares. Otherwise, HSBC would not be involved. There are only so many big companies in Xiangjiang, and there are only a few companies in which HSBC holds a large number of shares."

After hearing this, Li Yeguang said, "Wheelock, Landmark, Hutchison Whampoa, and Swire Group, that's about it."

"It can't be Landmark."

Li Jiacheng immediately shook his head: "Jardine Matheson holds land through Hongkong, and then through Hongkong Wharf. Although Hongkong does not hold many shares in Wharf, Jardine Matheson holds a lot of shares in Hongkong. Lin Baicheng It is unlikely to want to acquire land.”

"For the Swire Group, it is even more impossible. It is not only headquartered in London, but the parent company in London holds more than 30% of the shares of the Swire Group. It is even more difficult to acquire than Landmark."

Li Jiacheng analyzed successively and ruled out Hongkong Land and Swire Group, but the remaining Hutchison Whampoa and Wheelock are all possible, because the controlling parties of these two companies do not hold many shares in the company, and the opportunities are great. So he was not sure which company Lin Baicheng was targeting.
