Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 470 [Raptor across the River]

Hong Kong, Haiyu Group.

Yuan Tianfan already knew Cai Shiliang when he was working in Huodoli. In 1984, Yuan Tianfan helped Cai Shiliang, who came here with capital from Southeast Asia, to acquire the empty shell of Jinyou Real Estate and listed his business in Xiangjiang.Since then, the scale of Cai Shiliang's subordinate companies has gradually grown, and the number of listed companies has also continued to increase.At present, Haiyu Group mainly develops in real estate, warehouse, securities and other businesses.

Cai Shiliang is low-key and pragmatic, a traditional Chinese businessman; in appearance, Yuan Tianfan and Cai Shiliang are a bit similar, Yuan Tianfan has a fair complexion, a typical gifted look, his eyes squint into a line when he smiles, and he has a baby face.

In the conference room, Cai Shiliang said with a smile: "Tianfan, why don't we cooperate? You came to Haiyu Group as the boss. I originally intended to fade out of the business world, but I was worried about the country that I created. Haiyu Group Both have a rental income of nearly [-] million yuan, and the company has no financial worries.”

Yuan Tianfan was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly jumped, but soon he said calmly: "If it was more than a year ago, I might have agreed, but now Mr. Lin Zuhui treats me well, and I am very moved by his emphasis on talents." , so I'm afraid I can't help you!"

Both Cai Shiliang and Yuan Tianfan believe that the other party is a comrade-in-arms who has been devoted to each other for many years, and their friendship is very deep.

However, Yuan Tianfan was also moved by Lin Zuhui's emphasis on talents, and it is impossible to set up another branch now.He has only worked in Hengchang Holdings for one and a half years, and his salary plus bonus is almost more than 1 million. The group raised funds through two rights issues, and the executives bought stocks at a low price. What's more, my wife was also appointed as an executive by Octopus Bank, with an annual salary plus bonuses of about 4000 million. Salary is second, and the most important thing is the position.

It is impossible for him to betray this kindness, otherwise it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the business world.

Also, he thinks Lin Zuhui is an extremely charming person, you never know how much he knows and how many genius ideas he has; in Yuan Tianfan's view, Hengchang Holdings has a bright future, and he doesn't necessarily need to be a boss to do something deeds.

Cai Shiliang continued to persuade unwillingly: "It's never better to be a boss than to be a part-time worker. Under the leadership of you, Haiyu Group must have better prospects. As for me, I can safely and boldly sell the shares to you. Part of it is used for appreciation.”

Now that he has made up his mind, Yuan Tianfan is not someone who is easy to let go, but he suddenly had an idea and said, "Haiyu Group still has a lot of warrants, right?"

Cai Shiliang was taken aback, and said, "Why are you asking this?"

Yuan Tianfan immediately remembered what the boss said, if Haiyu Asia (a listed company in Singapore) has warrants, he must clear mines in advance to avoid being threatened.

"Just ask, if Haiyu Asia has a warrant, it will also be the target of our purchase. Brother Cai, the boss ordered it, please forgive me."

Cai Shiliang did not doubt that he had him, and said with a smile: "It's natural, I even have a sense of fading out of Xiangjiang, let alone the Singapore shopping mall. But, you really don't want to be the boss?"

Yuan Tianfan shook his head and said, "At least for the past few years, I can't leave New Era Group!"

Cai Shiliang said regretfully: "Then I welcome you to join us anytime!"

Yuan Tianfan said with a smile: "If you intend to fade out of the mall, I can persuade New Times Group to acquire Haiyu Group, how about it?"

Cai Shiliang showed reluctance, and said awkwardly: "It's not all faded out. If there is a talented leader like you, I can be a director."

Yuan Tianfan suddenly remembered what the boss said. He felt that the boss was always forward-looking in his work. Looking at this situation, if he worked with Cai Shiliang, the two people's business philosophy might not be the same. He didn't like Haiyu Group's very family-oriented management.

Therefore, Yuan Tianfan quickly shifted the topic to the details of the acquisition of Haiyu Asia.

New Era Group.

After Lin Zuhui heard about the progress of the acquisition of the listed company in Singapore, he said with satisfaction: "You have the full authority, you just need to report to me."

Yuan Tianfan nodded. He already knew the boss's plan, so he could complete the task.

"Recently, I also deliberately learned about the situation of the Yang Xiecheng Group. The Yang family is indeed full of conflicts, and several other houses hold a lot of shares, but recently they quit the board of directors. Yang Zhiyao recruited another house to join the board of directors, but actually he thought his son would continue to join the board of directors. Take power."

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "The family is in turmoil, and outsiders will definitely invade. Believe it or not, even if we publicly announce the acquisition, the contradictions of the Yang family are irreconcilable, and it is absolutely impossible to unite to defend against the enemy. Sooner or later, there will be members of the Yang family who will sell their shares at a high price. us."

Yuan Tianfan nodded and said, "Sometimes close relatives have feuds, but it is even more difficult to mediate."

Then, Lin Zuhui said: "Whether we are in charge of the Yeoh Hiep Seng Group or not, as long as we are the major shareholders and directors of the company, then the land of the Yeoh Hiep Seng Group on Bukit Road in Singapore and the factory land in Hong Kong will be developed by us. In addition, In the future, we will also have iced black tea, iced green tea, mineral water, and Wanglaoji, all of which can be sold overseas through the channels of Yeoh Hiep Seng Group. We can also carry forward their condiments.”

Real estate and sales channels are undoubtedly what Lin Zuhui values ​​most.

Yuan Tianfan asked curiously, "What kind of drinks are iced black tea and iced green tea?"

After Lin Zuhui explained, Yuan Tianfan secretly marveled, this boss is proficient in everything.Of course he knew about black tea and green tea, but he didn't know that these two products could be played like this - made into drinks and music marketing.

"Since this is the case, why don't the boss set up a research and development team now."

Lin Zuhui smiled and said: "Is it because the company is too busy, don't worry, we will enter this business after the 'Laotan Pickled Vegetable Instant Noodles' sells well."

Yuan Tianfan said: "I heard from Du Huilun that Master Kong in Tianjin has released a braised beef flavor, and there are long trucks at the factory gate."

Lin Zuhui said: "Let's put it this way, entrepreneurs in the mainland are armed with knives and guns, foreign companies are armed with machine guns, and we are armed with cannons."

Yuan Tianfan couldn't help laughing, the boss's words were very interesting, and so was the fact.

Then, Yuan Tianfan reported: "The Hong Kong government has launched a tender for the operation of the local fixed telecommunications network, and Times Communication is preparing the tender."

Hong Kong Telecom has two franchise licenses, one for overseas calls and the other for local calls. Hong Kong local calls will expire in mid-1995.In 1987, the Hong Kong government commissioned an expert company to conduct an assessment and decided to lay a second network and introduce new competition.

There is no charge for local calls in Hong Kong, but don’t think that local phone licenses are not profitable, because all calls to foreign countries, faxes, telexes, etc. need to be transferred to foreign countries through local calls.Therefore, Heung Kong Telecom has to pay a certain fee to the local telephone license holder according to the time.

Lin Zuhui said: "There is no problem with our technology and strength. We must have the three licenses. Of course, even if I don't get it, I won't regret it, so relax my mind. Maybe we will directly swallow Hong Kong Telecom that day." Yes, it's not impossible."

Yuan Tianfan has always admired Lin Zuhui's style of doing things, that is, he is very confident, but he is convincing.

"Well, we will work hard!"

Lin Zuhui continued: "The most important thing is to develop London's digital cellular telecommunications network. Once this grows up, it will be an amazing prospect."

Yuan Tianfan had no doubts about him, and immediately said: "I have been developing this project myself!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "There is no need to be anxious, you can pay attention to it appropriately. Once the development is rapid and the number of customers increases rapidly, then it is necessary to focus on it."

"Ok!"

After Yuan Tianfan left, Lin Zuhui shook his head with a smile. He guessed that Cai Shiliang might win over Yuan Tianfan to join him, but he chose to trust Yuan Tianfan.

When there is nothing wrong with his working emperor, when companies such as New Times Group (Huaxia), New Times Infrastructure, Fuli Real Estate Investment Management, etc. will be spun off and listed in the future, the bonuses of these executives are enough to make people enviable.

And assuming Times Telecom sells the price in Europe, he will also reward him, including the acquisition of Hong Kong Telecom.

As a boss, there are a few successful ones. Liang Botao and Du Huilian were the first investment bank in Asia in their previous lives. So what, because they did not have enough cash flow and investment in Indonesian rupiah, they had to go bankrupt in the end.

In this life, Lin Zuhui couldn't help if he really wanted to repeat the same mistakes.In business talk business, knowing that the financial crisis has been affected for several years, how could he possibly waste his money.

The only thing he can do to help Liang Botao is to let him join the investment bank of Octopus Financial Group and offer him a high salary.

In fact, whether Liang Botao joins or not is not very important to Lin Zuhui. After all, he is now the boss, and the two sides have cooperated a lot. Lin Zuhui has given him a lot of business.

At the end of September, public opinion in Singapore was in an uproar because Lin Zuhui and Cai Shiliang signed the equity transfer agreement of Haiyu Asia, which made the Singaporean business community and Z circle find an unusual taste.

Another buyer would not have caused such a big public opinion, but who is Lin Zuhui?
That is the richest man in the Chinese, and the Chinese businessman who just won 8 skyscrapers in Manhattan, USA, said that he is the light of the Chinese, and he must not be humble.After all, even Americans used the 'Chinese are taking over Manhattan' headline to describe Lam's feat.

In the conference room of Haiyu Asia, Lin Zuhui and Yuan Tianfan are holding a high-level meeting.Yuan Tianfan will be elected as the chairman of the board of Haiyu Asia, and Hengchang Holdings will send three more directors to the board of directors to control Haiyu Asia in one fell swoop.

In Lin Zuhui's eyes, there is no rubbing sand. Anyone who likes to sing against him will soon leave. Even if the company is affected, he will not hesitate.

To acquire 51% of Haiyu Asia, the total cost is 3.6 million Hong Kong dollars, with a premium of 10%. Haiyu Asia mainly holds properties and warehouses in Singapore, and also controls a listed company called "Pengli Insurance".

Lin Zuhui plans to sell this insurance company to Octopus Financial Group at the right time, and then use it as a flagship to acquire insurance companies and businesses in Asia to build an Asian insurance group.

Facing the award-winning Raptors, Haiyu's original directors did not choose to resist, but recognized their leadership.

It can be said that both Lin Zuhui and Yuan Tianfan are well-known Chinese, and managing this group of small soldiers and young generals is simply at their fingertips.

Of course, Lin Zuhui even handed over the chairman to Yuan Tianfan, so naturally he delegated power to him.

Yuan Tianfan said: "Currently we don't have any development plans, so the first element is to stabilize the company, and I hope everyone will continue to contribute to the company."

Soon, everyone joined in, not forgetting to look at Lin Zuhui.

Lin Zuhui was only an observer and did not speak. Haiyu Asia has many plans, but he will convey them through Yuan Tianfan next month.

After the meeting was dissolved, Lin Zuhui and Yuan Tianfan came to the office.

"Let our people stabilize and familiarize themselves with the company as soon as possible, and then prepare to sell the equity of Prime Insurance to my Octopus Financial Group. The cash collected will be used to buy Singapore's 'blue chips', such as real estate blue chips. Next year Hong Kong Both the stock market and the Singapore stock market will take advantage of factors such as the boom in real estate and the sluggish economies in Europe and the United States to have great prospects, and investing in stocks is very profitable.”

Yuan Tianfan asked: "What about the secret purchase of Yeoh Hiep Seng Group's funds? Boss, have you considered injecting capital into Singapore's Central Plaza to expand the scale of Haiyu Asia several times."

Singapore's 'Central Plaza', together with the land, has a total investment of about 25 billion, which is much larger than Haiyu Asia's assets and market value.

Lin Zuhui thought for a while and said: "Okay, you are the old Xingzun, you can handle this matter. I can only tell you that the prospect of the Singapore stock market next year is very good."

"Okay, in this way, the strength of Haiyu Asia has greatly increased, and it will not be a problem to swallow the Yang Xiecheng Group in the future. The only thing to consider is whether the business friends here are friendly."

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Don't worry about this! It happens that I will meet with both Wu and Li here tomorrow, and I will just take a breather at that time. As for the business community, there is no need to worry. Singaporean businessmen want to develop in Xiangjiang. How dare you offend me, a local snake."

Yuan Tianfan nodded, and said, "Well, the boss is a prize-winning raptor, and it's not something that the businessmen here just picked."

"They are all Chinese. I just want to use Singapore as a springboard to expand my business in Asia."

The next day, Lin Zuhui received the official reception here. Both Wu and Li expressed their welcome in words and deeds. Lin Zuhui also promised to be optimistic about the development of Singapore and hoped to increase investment in the future.

For a while, the media in Singapore once again described Lin Zuhui as a "prize-winning Raptor".

Businessmen in Xiangjiang, including Li Chaoren, Zheng Yutong and others, have invested in Singapore, but they do not own listed companies.

As soon as Lin Zuhui came, he bought the listed company, obviously preparing for long-term investment.

According to media analysis, with the title of the richest Chinese man and the New Times Group with a market value of more than 1000 billion in Hong Kong, Singapore will welcome another heavyweight investor.
