Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 172 Li Jiacheng's Consideration
"It seems that I should be thinking too much."

Li Jiacheng nodded after hearing this, but he was thinking about something else.

The sudden appearance of a large number of long orders is obviously not like the behavior of retail investors and small institutions. It is likely that there are big funds competing with them. It is impossible to say that they are not worried.After all, no one is a fool, and he was worried that this opponent knew some news that they didn't know, and that news was not good for them to short.

Of the total short-selling investment of 8000 million Hong Kong dollars this time, Li Jiacheng’s funds accounted for [-] million Hong Kong dollars. This is all the funds he can come up with now, and he had to sell the shares of Wharf to get it together. Not so much money.

"If this fails."

After calming down, Li Jiacheng thought about it and felt that the risk of shorting all his funds was too great. His main purpose was to hit Hutchison Whampoa and Lin Baicheng, not to make money by shorting.

Now that the plan has been implemented, there is no problem for him to spend less money, at most he will earn less money.But if it really fails, then he can lose less. With Cangjiang Industry, he will have a chance to stand up sooner or later. There is no need to gamble too much, and there is room for it.

Of course, even though he thinks this way, it doesn’t mean that Li Jiacheng thinks he’s done something wrong. There are indications that Hutchison Whampoa’s long gold futures investment has lost money, so it should be right to short this time.

The 8000 million Hong Kong dollars has already been withdrawn. Li Jiacheng will naturally not say that he wants to withdraw some short-selling funds at this time. You must know that he is the promoter, and doing so is completely damaging his own confidence. Of course he will not do such a stupid thing.

What Li Jiacheng thought was that after the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa fell below 6 Hong Kong dollars or even lower, he took the opportunity to buy some Hutchison Whampoa stocks as a hedge.In this way, if the short selling is successful, he can earn some money by holding a certain amount of Hutchison Whampoa shares. After Lin Baicheng reduces his holdings, he may have the opportunity to gain control of Hutchison Whampoa in the future.For Hutchison Whampoa, a big landlord, he coveted it very much.

And if there is an emergency and the short-selling fails, Li Jiacheng can at least save some losses by buying a certain amount of Hutchison Whampoa stocks, which is considered a great fortune among misfortunes.It won't hurt him, and he can use Cangjiang Industry to turn around in the future.

Feng Jinxi said: "When will we start to bring down the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa? Lin Baicheng has returned to Xiangjiang now, and no one can say whether he will do anything. Now that the price of gold is still falling, it is best Do it now. If you wait a long time, if nothing else, gold rebounds and rises, it will be a disaster for us."

Niu Bijian said in a deep voice: "Today is Wednesday, and there are two days left for the stock market trading day this week. Tomorrow, we will give Bob another day to ship the goods. We will announce it tomorrow night. If we announce it on Friday night, the stock market will There is no transaction, although there is more time to ferment, but there are many variables.”

Jardine itself only holds 3% of the shares in Hutchison Whampoa, and Jardine is the first to ship, so Jardine has almost sold out at present, and it will be sold out by tomorrow, so he is not worried that Jardine will still take Hutchison Whampoa's stock has become worthless.

"Should we announce it on Sunday?"

Bob frowned slightly. He still had a lot of Hutchison Whampoa stocks in his hands. If he didn't sell them while they were still at a high price, they would not be worth much if they were sold in a few days.

Feng Jinxi reminded: "Mr. Bob, you have to know that you accounted for 8000 million Hong Kong dollars in the short-selling funds. You should be more clear about which is more important."

"I see, just do as you say."

Bob was silent for a while, and nodded helplessly. He knew that even if he had an extra day, he would not be able to sell too many stocks, so shorting the funds over there was more important.

At about eleven o'clock in the morning, Lin Baicheng received a call from Shen Congee from HSBC. Shen Congee said that he wanted to invite him to dinner, and at the same time said that he wanted to talk to him about something.

Lin Baicheng agreed, and HSBC knew the specific details of Hutchison Whampoa's gold futures investment, so it was impossible for him not to give Shen Porridge face, so as to avoid problems with HSBC.

The two went directly to the Peninsula Hotel for dinner and asked for a private room.

Shen Congee got straight to the point: "Lin Sheng, your return to Xiangjiang this time is related to what happened at the board meeting the day before yesterday and the fact that someone shorted Hutchison Whampoa in the option market?"

"good."

Lin Baicheng knew that he couldn't hide it from Shen Porridge, so he nodded and admitted: "It's obvious that someone is causing trouble, and I have to sit in Xiangjiang."

"A large amount of funds appeared in the option market this morning, and a large number of empty orders were taken away. This should be Lin Sheng's handwriting?"

Even though he asked this question, Shen Congee already had the answer in his heart.Lin Baicheng has just returned, and Hutchison Whampoa's investment is profitable again. If it is said that Lin Baicheng has nothing to do with the long and short futures orders, he will not believe anything.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from Daban Shen."

Lin Baicheng smiled, obviously acquiescing.

"Lin Sheng, I won't hide it from you."

Shen Porridge did not play sloppy with Lin Baicheng, he said: "I also know that Hutchison Whampoa's investment is profitable, and it has made a lot of money. Now the Qi Dezun family and Bob, Jardine and other directors are selling a large number of stocks. I People have already bought a lot in secret. I don't want to miss this good opportunity to make money, nor do I want to cause misunderstandings from you, Lin Sheng, so I want to inform you, Lin Sheng, and ask Lin Sheng to allow HSBC to participate in this game middle."

Lin Baicheng knew that Shen Congee said this to save face, otherwise, Shen Congee insisted on buying a large amount of stocks, and he had no choice, so he just pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "As long as Shen Taiban promises me, I will not buy a large amount of stocks regardless of the cost. How about selling stocks and holding no more than 10% of the stocks after this incident is over?"

"Yes, HSBC buys Hutchison Whampoa stock to make money, and I can agree to all of these."

When Shen Cong heard the words, he readily agreed, it would be the best way to negotiate, it would be beneficial to everyone, and they would make money together.

Shen Congee now knows who is shorting Hutchison Whampoa, and he also knows that Qi Dezun, Jardine, Bob and other shareholders have sold their Hutchison Whampoa stocks, but he has no intention of reminding them at all. Take the opportunity to buy a large number of Hutchison Whampoa stocks and make a lot of money.

Although everyone is British-owned, their money does not belong to HSBC. Shen Porridge does not have the obligation to remind them, let alone remind them, HSBC will not be able to make money.

Give up a great opportunity to make money, remind others, and get a thank you. It is not the capital that will do this kind of thing, but the philanthropist.

As a banker, Shen Porridge knows what he should do and what he should not do.
