Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 789
There was not much practical progress in this afternoon tea.

Both Lin Daoqiu and Foden seem to look down on the companies that Brown had prepared before.

However, Xiangjiang Electric Lamp, which we talked about at the end, seems to be a little hopeful.

After sending Lin Daoqiu and Foden away, Sean called Brown to his study and asked him directly.

"Do you think Foden is interested in Xiangjiang Electric?"

Brown didn't speak, but shook his head first, and it seemed that he had a lot of doubts.

After drinking this afternoon tea today, under Brown's close observation, he found that the attitudes of Foden and Lin Daoqiu seemed a little different.

Although Foden seemed to be very interested in the things he provided, under Brown's careful observation, he found that Foden seemed to be absent-minded when he read the information.

Although Lin Daoqiu looked at it quickly, Brown felt that the other party seemed to be watching it seriously.

"We became the major shareholder of Xiangjiang Electric earlier this year, and now it is almost impossible to sell our shares at the original price."

Although Sean said just now that there are many people who are interested in Heung Kong Electric, in fact, at this time, there are basically very few people who are willing to spend 30 billion to buy Heung Kong Electric.

Under the current situation, most people still hold the idea that cash is king, and it is difficult to find buyers.

"The real estate of Xiangjiang has been in a slow decline trend. If it continues to fall like this, the value of Xiangjiang Electric may continue to shrink."

Brown's worry is not unreasonable, and Sean is also very distressed about it.

"You can handle this matter. If Foden is interested, it is not impossible to sell it to them at a lower price."

What Sean thinks now is to get rid of Xiangjiang Electric as soon as possible. It doesn't matter if you lose a little money. Anyway, if you don't sell it now, it will still fall later. It's better to get rid of it quickly.

"Okay sir, I will find a way to solve this matter as soon as possible."

Apart from Foden, Brown really can't think of anyone who would spend so much money to buy their shares at this time.

…………

"Why do I feel that you seem to be interested in Xiangjiang Electric?"

On the way back, Foden couldn't help asking Lin Daoqiu about his doubts.

Lin Daoqiu did not intend to hide this matter from Foden. After all, Foden was not interested in making a large investment in Xiangjiang, so naturally he would not have any thoughts on Xiangjiang Electric.

"To tell you the truth, I now own a 4.9% stake in Xiangjiang Electric. I am determined to win this company."

Foden nodded. He didn't mind helping Lin Daoqiu buy Xiangjiang Electric, because it was just a matter of effort for him.

But what Foden doesn't understand is that under such a situation, it is really not a wise choice for Lin Daoqiu to spend such a large sum of money to acquire Xiangjiang Electric.

"Lin, aren't you worried that what Sean and the others have been worrying about will happen?"

In Foden's view, it is definitely not suitable to make too much investment in Xiangjiang at this time.

He believes that Lin Daoqiu should be very aware of the development of the current situation, but he still insists on doing this, which makes Foden a little incomprehensible.

"Sean and the others are all from England, but I am different from them. I got everything from nothing to what I have now. Even if Xiangjiang changes at that time, I will still stay."

Naturally, Lin Daoqiu would not explain too much to Foden at this time.

"I understand if you say that. If it were me, I wouldn't leave here."

Putting himself in his shoes, Foden felt that Lin Daoqiu's words came from the heart.

Although he didn't know the saying that the homeland is hard to leave, Foden's thoughts at this time probably meant this.

"The recent movements of the Bao family are surprisingly stable. I worry that if this continues, it will be difficult for them to show me any flaws."

Foden has been very distressed recently, because the recent situation has caused a major change in the investment direction of Baojia.

The current Bao family is like a hedgehog, making it impossible for Foden to speak.

Lin Daoqiu has no good way to do this. After all, the current environment is like this, and no one will come out to invest heavily at this time.

"Now we can only wait and see, but I believe that it will not be long before the situation will change."

Lin Daoqiu seems to be very confident about this, which makes Foden feel very strange.

"Could you still guess this time?"

Foden shook his head with a smile. Last time, Lin Daoqiu predicted that the four major financial groups would sell off their assets within a few years.

Lin Daoqiu said before that this was just his guess, and he took his words as a joke.

But when his prediction became a reality, Foden had to take Lin Daoqiu's guess seriously.

"This time it's not a guess, but because Bao Shaogang's situation is very bad. If he doesn't do something, it's tantamount to sitting around waiting to die."

Although the Bao family is so stable now, Bao Shaogang has become an unstable factor now, so Lin Daoqiu is very sure that Bao Shaogang will definitely take action in the near future.

"Now I can only hope that Mr. Bao will act quickly, otherwise I don't want to wait like this forever."

Foden has pinned all his hopes on Bao Shaogang, and at this time Bao Shaogang is not in a hurry.

The Tianhao International project caused him to lose too much points. If he didn't think of a way to win the round, he would definitely miss the future helm of the Bao family.

Originally, he also planned to increase investment and make some achievements.

However, due to the recent drastic changes in the situation, Baojia has made a decision to stop all expansion actions in order to stabilize the situation.

And this decision was a huge blow to Bao Shaogang.

For the past few days, Bao Shaogang seldom went home, and at night he went to the villa he bought to drink away his sorrows.

Liao Wenxiang was always by his side, although he knew that drinking was wrong, but he did not dare to persuade Bao Shaogang.

Because Bao Shaogang's temper has become very irritable recently, if he does something wrong, he will be scolded severely at least, and beaten at worst.

Especially after Bao Shao just drank, Liao Wenxiang didn't even dare to speak loudly, let alone persuade him.

"My elder brother is very prestigious now, and Baoyun International and Baochang Real Estate have become his possessions. I'm afraid it won't be long before I will be kicked out by him."

When Bao Shao first spoke, he gritted his teeth, and these were all from his heart.

Liao Wenxiang didn't dare to answer, because during this time, after Bao Shao just drank, he would always complain there and speak ill of his elder brother. Over time, Liao Wenxiang had gotten used to it.
