Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 584 Battle for HK Electric ([-])
The details of HK Electric Group's board of directors were passed on by someone, and the stock market reacted immediately.

The stock price of Hong Kong Electric Group rose sharply, and British capital actually won Lin Baicheng on the board of directors, which shows that British capital may win the control of Hong Kong Electric Group from Lin Baicheng, and Lin Baicheng will definitely not watch himself lose Hong Kong Electric Group.

Therefore, in the interpretation of the outside world, Lin Baicheng and British capital will definitely compete for the control of HK Electric Group, and the competition for shares between the two parties is the top priority.

As a matter of course, the share price of Hong Kong Electric Group rose, and it was still soaring, approaching the price of 9 Hong Kong dollars at the close of trading in the morning.

At the current price, Lin Baicheng would definitely not be able to get Yum Securities to buy stocks at a price of 7 Hong Kong dollars, and he did not let Yum Securities buy stocks at a higher price. The main reason is that he does not want to be taken advantage of and be cut off by others. .

Lin Baicheng told Baisheng Securities to pay attention to the stock market, and pay attention to whether there are funds secretly buying a large number of shares of HK Electric Group.If there are funds buying in large quantities, the stocks with funds pallet can be analyzed from the trend.

Once there is a large amount of funds in the tray to buy the shares of Hong Kong Electric Group, Lin Baicheng will consider whether to buy a large number of stocks at a higher price. He cannot let the British capital exceed him in terms of shareholding ratio.

Once Lin Baicheng's shareholding ratio is lower than that of the British capital, Lin Baicheng will lose the initiative and it will be very unfavorable to him.

What happened to Hong Kong Electric Group, many bigwigs in Hong Kong are paying attention. After all, this is a large company with a market value of several billion Hong Kong dollars, and it is still engaged in electricity, which has a great influence.

What's more, the two parties competing for the control of Hong Kong Electric Group are Lin Baicheng, the new richest man in Hong Kong, who is Chinese; Kadoorie family.

In any case, it was a failure for Lin Baicheng to win Grant and Fred over by the British capital. Lin Baicheng failed to achieve his goal on the board of directors, and the two sides still had troubles in the competition for HK Electric Group.

However, on the second day, Lin Baicheng got great news from the United States.

The international gold price, which has been fluctuating around the price of US$390 per ounce, rose by more than four points during the daytime on Wednesday in New York time. The price of gold broke through the price of US$400 per ounce, which can be said to be a big positive line.

In addition to the sharp rise in the price of gold, the price of oil also rose sharply. It was also a big positive line, which rose by more than four points.

The reason why the price of gold and oil soared was because of local frictions between Hongsu’s troops on the Afghan border. Once the friction expanded, a war between Hongsu and Afghanistan was expected to break out.

Once a war breaks out, the price of gold and oil will inevitably skyrocket. Now it is only the possibility of war breaking out, so the price of gold and oil will rise sharply first. The follow-up trend depends on whether the war will break out.

The sharp rise in gold and oil prices is of course good news for Lin Baicheng. His total investment in gold futures and oil futures has exceeded tens of billions of dollars. Tian made a profit of 4 million U.S. dollars, which is nearly 17 billion in Hong Kong dollars.

Although the market value of HK Electric Group is not low, it is nothing compared to such a huge profit and the possible greater profits in the future.

Although it was already known that the war between Hongsu and Afghanistan would break out, the investment this time exceeded tens of billions of dollars. Therefore, Lin Baicheng was slightly relieved when this incident actually happened.

The reason why they are not completely relieved is because there is only partial friction between the two sides now, and there is still the possibility of reconciliation.Although he didn't think the butterfly effect brought about by his own rebirth would affect the war here, Lin Baicheng was still a little worried because the investment was too large.

It's just that worrying is nothing to worry about. Lin Baicheng has no ability to influence such a major event, so all he can do is to draw people's attention to the international situation. If the situation is not good, he should leave the market quickly. Otherwise, he will wait for the price of gold and oil to rise sharply.

Lin Baicheng himself still focuses his energy on the Hong Kong Electric Group. He must not let the British capital take the Hong Kong Electric Group away from him, and at the same time, he must find a way to teach the British capital a profound lesson.

The outside world is also paying attention, waiting for Lin Baicheng to fight back.

However, on Thursday, Lin Baicheng did nothing. Although he was working in the HK Electric Group, he didn't even talk to Grant and Fred specifically, as if he didn't mind their betrayal.

It was Grant and Fred who were a little worried about how Lin Baicheng would deal with them. Fortunately, not only did they get a huge salary from the British capital, but they also got promises, so they chose to stand with the British capital.

Lin Baicheng did not take any action on this day, and at the same time, he did not buy a large number of stocks from the stock market at a high price, and British capital also did not buy a large number of stocks at a high price. Therefore, the share price of Hong Kong Electric Group fell back to a price of about 8 Hong Kong dollars.

The funds for the speculation saw that both parties did not buy stocks from the stock market at a high price, and they were inevitably worried about changes. In addition, retail investors continued to leave the market at high prices, so they did not dare to invest too much money to make HK Electric Group's stock price too high.

On Friday morning, Lin Baicheng learned from Qin Lan that the price of gold and oil in New York had risen sharply again yesterday, this time the increase was just over three points, and the price of gold and oil rose by seven points in two trading days.

"Mr. Lin, today is the last trading day of this week. After that, the market will rest for several days. Do you have any instructions for investing in gold futures and oil futures?"

After Qin Lan finished reporting, she asked aloud.The two days after Friday are weekends, and next Tuesday is Christmas. There is no market trading around Christmas, so the market will be closed for five consecutive days.

Lin Baicheng said: "I still have a request. Unless Hongsu and Afghanistan stop and reconcile, I will just ignore it."

"I see."

Qin Lan responded and expressed her understanding.

Before work time came, Lin Baicheng left home and went to HK Electric Group.

HK Electric Group, around ten o'clock in the morning.

More than a dozen police officers entered the headquarters building where HK Electric Group is located.

The front desk lady in the lobby notified the general manager's office immediately, and the general manager's office immediately reported to Lin Baicheng and Levi's.

After learning about it, Levi went to Lin Baicheng's office in person.

Lin Baicheng said to Levi's: "Levi's, you go to receive them. If they need our company's cooperation, you can cooperate with them."

"Okay, Mr. Lin."

Levi's responded, thoughtfully, he couldn't help guessing that the person might be called by Lin Baicheng.

Levi's left Lin Baicheng's office and learned from the employee who came to report that the police officers had already taken the elevator up.

"Guys, I'm Levi's, the boss of Hongkong Electric Group. I don't know which department you are from?"

"Hello Levi's Taipan, I'm Zhang Yichi, a senior inspector of the Commercial Crime Investigation Division, and this is my ID."

After the leading police officer introduced himself, he took out his ID.

"Hello, Inspector Zhang."

Levi took a look at the ID and shook hands with Zhang Yichi.

Zhang Yichi took out another document and said: "This is a summons. We have received a report that Mr. Grant, the manager of your marketing department, and Mr. Fred, the chief engineer of the technical department, have violated your company's assets, so we need Take the two back to accept inquiries and investigations, and hope that your company can cooperate."

"Of course, we are a law-abiding company and we are obliged to cooperate with you in your work. I will take you to find them right now."

Levi's immediately said upon hearing the words, he didn't know that this was Lin Baicheng's handwriting, otherwise, without the support of big figures, the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau would not be able to investigate the executives of a large company such as Hong Kong Electric Group for no reason.

"Thank you Levi's Taipan for your support."

Of course, Zhang Yichi also guessed that Lin Baicheng was behind the instigation, but he received the order from his superiors, no matter what he thought in his heart, he had to fulfill the orders from his superiors.

Under Levi's lead, Zhang Yichi went to Grant and Fred successively, and took them away in their astonishment and anger.Zhang Yichi has a summons, and the two can only choose to go with them, otherwise they will be charged with an additional charge of 'obstructing official duties'.

Grant and Fred were taken away suddenly, the executives and employees of Hong Kong Electric Group couldn't help talking, and at the same time they worked more seriously while secretly awe-inspiring.

No one is an idiot. Grant and Fred just betrayed Lin Baicheng on the board of directors and stood in line with the British capital. Within two days, they were taken away by the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau in the name of commercial crime. Do not believe.

After Zhang Yichi took Grant and Fred away, Levi immediately went to Lin Baicheng's office.

"Mr. Lin, here is Senior Inspector Zhang Yichi from the Commercial Crime Investigation Division. He said he had received a report that Grant and Fred had infringed on the company's interests. He wanted to take them back for questioning. Now they have been arrested. It was taken."

Although he guessed in his heart that Lin Baicheng did this, Levi still pretended not to know and reported to Lin Baicheng seriously.

"There is such a thing?"

Lin Baicheng feigned surprise and asked, "Levi's, do you think Grant and Fred have violated the company's interests?"

Levi said ambiguously: "I think there should be. If there is no evidence, Inspector Zhang will not take them away."

Lin Baicheng shook his head: "That's really a pity, I didn't expect them to be such people."

"Yeah, I really didn't expect it!"

Levi's nodded in agreement, and continued: "But Mr. Lin, the two of them have joined Yingzi now. I think Yingzi will definitely not watch them have trouble, but will do their best to catch them. With the strength of the big families of Yingzi, Grant and Fred may be released soon."

"That's true."

Lin Baicheng was not disappointed when he heard the words, because he had thought of this a long time ago. With the strength of the British capital and several major families, it would be good if the Hong Kong government could not help the British capital to deal with Lin Baicheng. Lin Baicheng had never expected the Hong Kong government to help him deal with it. British capital.

"However, after this incident, Grant and Fred have stains on both of them. For the sake of the company's interests and reputation, I think they are no longer suitable for the company, don't you think ?”

"What Mr. Lin said is that they are really not suitable for working in the company."

Levi's eyes lit up when he heard this, he knew Lin Baicheng's purpose for doing this.No matter whether Grant and Fred can be convicted or not, as long as the two of them are taken away for questioning, there will be stains on them, and the company has a reason to fire them, and their board seats will naturally be set aside.

Without Grant and Fred, Lin Baicheng's side occupied five of the remaining nine director seats of Hong Kong Electric Group, gaining the upper hand and turning the situation around.

Lin Baicheng nodded with a smile, and said, "I'm going to suspend their positions first. Their positions will be temporarily held by one of their subordinate deputies, and then their two director seats will be removed at the shareholders' meeting next week."

"It is still necessary to suspend their duties."

Of course, Levi's would not object. He is now in the same camp as Lin Baicheng, and it is in his best interest for Lin Baicheng to win.

"Then you go and announce the suspension of the two of them first. I will interview the specific candidates for succession one by one, and I will notify you after the candidates are confirmed."

This is an opportunity to increase the influence of Hong Kong Electric Group, and of course Lin Baicheng participated in the battle in person.

Levi nodded: "Mr. Lin, if there is nothing else, I will go out first."

"Go out and do your work first."

Lin Baicheng didn't have anything to say for the time being.

The fact that Grant and Fred were taken away by the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau was arranged by Lin Baicheng. He also made other arrangements, that is, he called the media under the Asia Star Media Group to wait outside the HK Electric Group in advance.

When Grant and Fred were taken out of the HK Electric Group by Zhang Yichi, the reporters immediately went to take pictures for interviews. Although Zhang Yichi did not accept the interview, the reporters had already taken pictures of Grant and Fred being taken away.

You don't have to wait until night or tomorrow, relevant reports will appear in newspapers at noon, and there will also be relevant reports on the noon news of Asian TV.

This is the convenience of having your own media. If you want to report it, you can report it immediately. Otherwise, if you want to be published in the newspaper immediately, you will have to pay a lot of money.

Not long after Grant and Fred were taken away, Yingzi knew about it. Shiyadi Shiweier first arranged for a lawyer to meet with the two, and then asked the Chief Superintendent of the Criminal Investigation Division to find out what was going on. one thing.

Only when you know what's going on can you deal with it.

The Swire Group and the Swire family still have a lot of face, not to mention the four big families behind the British capital this time. The Chief Superintendent of the Commercial Crime Investigation Division did not hide the situation and told Swire about the situation.

Knowing that Lin Baicheng was playing tricks, Shi Yadi Shi Huaiya was not surprised, he guessed it before calling.On the contrary, Grant and Fred had no major problems, so Shiyadi Swariya was relieved, so he had room to operate, and he immediately put pressure on the chief superintendent to let the other party release them.

However, the Chief Superintendent refused, saying that he would not release the man unless it was ordered by the Commissioner of Police or a higher level, and asked Shi Yadi Shi Huaiya not to embarrass him.
