Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 519 Fundraising Cooperation (Two in One)

There is no stock in this world that only rises but never falls.

Hutchison Whampoa, which was stimulated by the positive news, is no exception. Especially when someone sells a large number of stocks at a high level, the upward trend is even more difficult to maintain.

Since the announcement of Hutchison Whampoa and Carrian Group's transaction, the stock price has risen under the positive stimulus. When Hutchison Whampoa's HK$8 million dividend plan was announced, this is another positive stimulus for Hutchison Whampoa's share price.

Stimulated by the relevant favorable conditions, Hutchison Whampoa's share price rose to a stage high of HK$66.73 a few trading days later, with a total market value of HK$266.92 billion.

After the high point, there was an adjustment. The stock price of Hutchison Whampoa fell to nearly 60 Hong Kong dollars in just two days, and the lowest drop was almost 10%. Fortunately, it quickly rebounded to around 62 Hong Kong dollars, and oscillated at this price.

Under the circumstances that the positive stimulus could not break through the previous high, the reason why Hutchison Whampoa's stock price did not fall sharply was because HSBC protected the market.

The reason for HSBC to protect the market is very simple, because the Hutchison Whampoa stocks in HSBC’s hands have not been sold out, and they don’t want the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa to plummet. The remaining shares are sold.

After selling the shares in Hutchison Whampoa, HSBC is still protecting the market, which keeps the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa fluctuating.The reason for this is that HSBC is shorting, mortgaged Lin Baicheng to sell HSBC's stock at a high price, and is going to wait for Hutchison Whampoa's stock price to fall to a certain price and buy it back, making short-term money.

From HSBC's point of view, the company is selling a lot of stocks, and Lin Baicheng is also selling a lot of stocks. The stock price of Hutchison Whampoa will definitely undergo a wave of adjustments. If the news of Hutchison Whampoa's investment loss comes out, Then the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa will only fall more, so shorting now can be said to be a sure profit.

HSBC wanted to keep the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa at 62 Hong Kong dollars to fluctuate, so that they could sell more stocks for shorting. Unfortunately, in just two trading days, the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa suddenly plummeted, and HSBC dared not protect it any longer. In the market, we can only sell a large number of stocks and short as much as possible.

The reason why the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa suddenly fell sharply was because the international gold price finally chose a direction after fluctuating at 300 US dollars per ounce for a period of time. Unfortunately, instead of rising upward, it chose to adjust downward.

The reason why Hutchison Whampoa’s stock price can rise above 60 Hong Kong dollars is due to the huge profits of Hutchison Whampoa’s capital investment in long gold futures. Now that the international gold price has adjusted, Hutchison Whampoa’s stock price will naturally follow. There is an adjustment.

However, Hutchison Whampoa’s stock price has adjusted, and HSBC dare not short too much. When Hutchison Whampoa’s stock price fell to 55 Hong Kong dollars, HSBC stopped short selling.

In HSBC's judgment, Lin Baicheng used the US$2 million invested by Hutchison Whampoa to short gold futures. Now that the international gold price has adjusted and dropped, it shows that Hutchison Whampoa's short-selling losses are decreasing. As the price of gold gets lower and lower, the loss is only There will be less and less, and it is not impossible to make profits in the future, so the further the gold price falls, the less you can short Hutchison Whampoa.

HSBC just wants to make money, not to destroy Hutchison Whampoa, so after the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa fell below 55 Hong Kong dollars, it stopped shorting, and only waited for the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa to fall to a certain level. The stock is bought back.

The international gold price has adjusted, and Hutchison Whampoa's stock price has fallen. Of course Lin Baicheng is aware of these, but he has no reaction.

Regarding the adjustment of the international gold price, Lin Baicheng knows that it will rise sharply in the next six months or so. Naturally, it is impossible to close the long position at this time, and he is not going to make a short trade, because he does not know at which price the international gold price will end.What's more, frequent transactions will expose the account, and then let Western capital know that he has made huge profits from long gold futures, and if he is not good, he will be targeted.

As for the drop in the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa, Lin Baicheng is not planning to sell the stock at this time, and the temporary drop in the stock price does not affect his interests.

However, one person was unlucky, and that was Iwasaki Fenglong, who bought 1200 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa from HSBC. His purchase price was 64.5 Hong Kong dollars. The shares on the website fell by nearly 55%, with a loss of more than one billion Hong Kong dollars.

Originally, Iwasaki Mineryu's loss of money had nothing to do with Lin Baicheng, but it was Lin Baicheng who asked Iwasaki Mineryu to buy Hutchison Whampoa stocks from HSBC. Therefore, facing Iwasaki Mineryu's indirect inquiries, Lin Baicheng could only speak to appease , indicating that Hutchison Whampoa will definitely rise sharply in the long run.

At the same time, Lin Baicheng specially found a time to call Iwasaki Mineryu, Bao Yugang, Guo Hanian and Zheng Yutong together.

Lin Baicheng told them directly that now everyone has an opportunity to cooperate, so each of them made time to attend the appointment.

When we met, when asked about the opportunity for cooperation, Lin Baicheng did not answer, but looked at Zheng Yudong: "Zheng Sheng, Hehuang's stock price has fallen a lot. You said a while ago that you will do short-term business Did you do it later?"

"When Hutchison's stock price fell to around HK$62, I sold [-]% of my position."

There is nothing to hide about this matter, so Zheng Yudong said it directly.

Lin Baicheng nodded when he heard the words, and said to the four people: "The cooperation opportunity I mentioned is actually related to the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa. I mean, everyone will contribute money together, and then when the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa falls to about 50 Hong Kong dollars, Buy the bottom and wait for the subsequent rebound in the stock price."

Zheng Yutong couldn't help but said: "Lin Sheng, can Hutchison's stock price fall to 50 Hong Kong dollars? The most important thing is, even if Hutchison's stock price rebounds, how high can it rebound? If it is only about 20% profit, In the case of risk, the return rate is actually not high.”

Bao Yugang said his judgment: "Hutchison's current market value of around 200 billion Hong Kong dollars is actually not low. With the current annual profit of more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars, it is difficult to support a too high stock price."

"There is a reason why Hutchison's annual profit is not high, because I don't want Hutchison to pay too much tax, so I put more profits into investment, but the company's annual profit will still have a relatively large increase. Last year, the company's The profit is 2.4 million Hong Kong dollars, and this year it will be about 5 million Hong Kong dollars, almost double the increase.”

After a pause, Lin Baicheng continued: "Looking at Hutchison Whampoa, you should look at the company's net asset appreciation. As of the end of last year, Hutchison Whampoa's net assets were more than 48 billion Hong Kong dollars, and now it has reached 70 billion Hong Kong dollars. , this is because the company has distributed 8 million Hong Kong dollars in dividends, otherwise the net assets will only be more."

"Unsurprisingly, Hutchison's net assets will reach tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars this year, but the company's annual profit will only be around 5 million Hong Kong dollars, and more funds will be used for investment to increase the company's net assets in the coming year. bedding."

Hutchison Whampoa’s net assets have increased significantly. There are many factors, including the profit from long gold futures, the sale of foreign trade business, the profit from the Golden Gate Building, and the most influential real estate appreciation. These factors add up to make Hutchison Whampoa There has been a substantial increase in net assets.

Of course, if Hutchison Whampoa's subsequent investments suffer losses or real estate prices fall, it will definitely have a serious impact on Hutchison Whampoa's net assets.

"Can Hutchison's net assets reach tens of billions this year?"

Bao Yugang couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words, so Hutchison Whampoa's net assets would be more than twice that of Wharf.Wharf’s share price has been undergoing long-term adjustments since its acquisition. Fortunately, the overall real estate market has risen, so the share price has remained above HK$40. Otherwise, it will only fall more.

"In this way, there is no need to worry about holding Hutchison shares for a long time."

Iwasaki Mineryu said thoughtfully, if Lin Baicheng hadn't lied to him, as long as he held Hutchison Whampoa stock, he would definitely not lose money in the long run.And he felt that it was unlikely that Lin Baicheng would lie to him, so he felt a lot more at ease.

"The market value of Hutchison Whampoa is not low. If you want to do more to raise this stock, you need a lot of funds. Too little is useless. But if there are too many funds, I may not be able to get them out."

Guo Henian said aloud, if it is really a good project, he will certainly be able to pay for it, but the problem is that he already holds a lot of shares in Hutchison Whampoa, and he doesn't want to go long, but just wait for the stock price to rise and reduce his holdings. The fundamental reason is that he does not want to invest too much assets in a company that he cannot control, and he prefers to invest the funds in other industries of his own.

"Guo Sheng is right. I can spend tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, but it is useless to put this money on Hutchison Whampoa."

Zheng Yudong echoed, he is the least wealthy among them, he doesn't like this kind of risky investment, not to mention he still holds a lot of Hutchison Whampoa stocks at this time.

"What do you think, Baosheng?"

Lin Baicheng smiled and looked at Bao Yugang. In fact, whether this cooperation proposal can be successful has no effect on him, so Guo Henian and Zheng Yudong obviously don't want to participate, and he doesn't care. Anyway, whether everyone wants to participate In his view, willingness to cooperate is all right.

Lin Baicheng led them to make money when he saw an opportunity, instead of begging them to make money together. If others don't want to participate, he will definitely not force them to participate.

"I have always trusted Lin Sheng's vision. I can invest two to three hundred million Hong Kong dollars."

Although Bao Yugang is not so optimistic, he thinks there are risks and there is not much room for profit, but in line with the idea of ​​making friends with Lin Baicheng, he is willing to spend [-] to [-] million Hong Kong dollars to test the waters. Anyway, no matter how much he loses, he should not exceed [-] million Hong Kong dollars .

Although [-] million Hong Kong dollars is not a lot, it is not an unimaginably large amount for Bao Yugang, and he can afford to lose this amount of money.

"Iwasaki-kun?"

Lin Baicheng looked at Iwasaki Mineryu.

"I can also invest two to three hundred million Hong Kong dollars."

Iwasaki Mineryu has always said that he believes in Lin Baicheng's vision, so naturally it is not easy to be compared by Bao Yugang now.However, he will not use the investment funds given to him by Mitsubishi Bank to go long Hutchison Whampoa. He will pay for the money himself, mainly to avoid huge losses in Hutchison Whampoa, which will lead to his failure in the test.

"I can pay four to five billion Hong Kong dollars, so it's almost one billion Hong Kong dollars."

Lin Baicheng said aloud: "If we buy after Hutchison's share price falls below 50 Hong Kong dollars, we can almost buy 5% of the shares, which is not too small. Regarding this cooperation, everyone should think about it again, not reluctantly." Anyway, Hutchison’s stock price hasn’t fallen to 50 Hong Kong dollars yet, at least there is still a day or two to consider.”

"What Lin Sheng said was, I'll think about it when I go back."

The reason why Bao Yugang said this was mainly to avoid the embarrassment of Guo Henian and Zheng Yudong. After all, they didn't want to buy the bottom and the intention of Huangpu was more obvious.

Lin Baicheng said: "After you go back and think about it, make an appointment to meet again and decide whether you want to cooperate."

In this regard, several people have no opinion.

Several people went back separately. The cooperation proposal this time was not approved by all four of them. Lin Baicheng was not disappointed, after all, he himself had an indifferent attitude.However, from this incident, Lin Baicheng became more aware that no matter how flattering and flattering others usually are, when it comes to their own interests, they don't trust him as they usually say.

"People, you still can't be too self-righteous."

Lin Baicheng felt a little emotional, and secretly warned himself not to get lost in the flattery of others.

The time came to Thursday in a blink of an eye, and seeing that tomorrow was the second Miss Asia final, the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa was close to 50 Hong Kong dollars, and Lin Baicheng and the others gathered again that night.

There was Huo Yingdong among the people at the party tonight. Lin Baicheng and Huo Yingdong also had a good relationship, and he talked about the relevant cooperation with Huo Yingdong. As for whether Huo Yingdong wants to participate, it is up to Huo Yingdong himself.

And since Huo Yingdong came to the party tonight, it means that Huo Yingdong is willing to contribute and cooperate.

This gathering was much simpler. Everyone directly decided whether to cooperate or not, and how much money they were willing to contribute.

Bao Yugang and Iwasaki Minelong did not change their minds, and Guo Henian and Zheng Yudong also expressed their willingness to contribute, so everyone decided on this cooperation.

This time the cooperation will be long Hutchison Whampoa, with Lin Baicheng contributing 4 million Hong Kong dollars, Iwasaki Fenglong contributing 3 million Hong Kong dollars, Bao Yugang investing 2.5 million Hong Kong dollars, Huo Yingdong investing 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, Guo Henian and Zheng Yudong each contributing 5000 million Hong Kong dollars , adding up to a total of 12 billion Hong Kong dollars in funds.

The total amount of funds is still quite a lot. It just so happens that the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa has not yet fallen below the price of 50 Hong Kong dollars, and tomorrow is Friday, so Lin Baicheng and the others said that everyone will mobilize the funds in the next few days, and the remittance will be made on Monday. account.

At that time, buying stocks will not only use one account. Lin Baicheng and others will arrange their own people to participate in the operation of buying stocks, and they also have the intention of supervising the funds in the account.

After all, the money is from a partnership. If there is no one to watch it, everyone will definitely feel worried, so everyone can send at least one person to monitor the funds in the account, so that they know what to expect.

"I wish our cooperation will be smooth and we will make a fortune together!"

No matter what their thoughts were before the cooperation, when everyone negotiated the cooperation funds and matters, they all hoped that the cooperation would be successful and make money, so they opened a bottle of red wine to celebrate.
