Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 630 [The most sensible woman]

May 5th is the day when the Hang Seng Index futures are delivered, and the Hang Seng Index closed at 27 points;
It fell 1500 points from the beginning of May and 3000 points from the peak at the end of March, which can be described as a heavy loss.

Obviously, international speculators have returned victorious again.

Some international media blatantly published the news in newspapers: Heung Kong has become a cash machine for international investors, and they can make profits from Heung Kong Securities at the touch of a switch button.

For a while, the market sentiment was wailing, and there was no longer a trend of technical rebound, and it seemed that there would be another wave of decline.

Octopus Bank Building.

In Lin Zuhui's office, Octopus Bank President He Changhong, Vice President Li Huimin, Barings Bank President Andre, and Vice President Liang Botao were all sitting on the sofa.

"Bahrain Bank continues to increase its stake in Samsung Electronics, preferably holding more than 5%!"

Liang Botao glanced at Andre, and then said: "No problem! Samsung Electronics' current market value is only 45 billion US dollars, and Barings Bank has sufficient cash flow."

Lin Zuhui asked: "How much liquid capital is there in the account of Bahrain Bank?"

Andre replied: "10 billion U.S. dollars, if you count about 3 million U.S. dollars for Samsung Electronics, there are still more than 7 million U.S. dollars."

Peregrine spent 3 million U.S. dollars, San Miguel Group spent 4 million U.S. dollars (finally holding 16.8% of the shares), and Barings Bank has spent 7 million U.S. dollars in expenses this year.

When Lin Zuhui thought about it, each of his private investment institutions was not superfluous; the family office, Hengjin Investment, Jingwei Capital, and Barings Bank all had a focused nature.

Family Office: Mainly invest in Hong Kong blue chips, stocks of "future high market capitalization" listed companies in the United States and the United Kingdom, such as United Health, Johnson & Johnson, Mobil, Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola, Unilever, AstraZeneca, Shell and other types of stocks. The dividends of such stocks are stable every year, and the growth rate of market value is not bad.

Hengjin Investment: U.S. stocks in the secondary market are mainly information technology (Microsoft, Oracle, Cisco, etc.), banks (Citigroup, United, etc.), and Nike, Starbucks and other stocks.

Jingwei Capital: venture capital investment in Chinese and American Internet companies, and primary market investment (Apple, Kingston).

And today's Barings Bank will also become an investment weapon in his hands, so he has to develop it well.

"Strive to buy the bottom of LG Electronics, Samsung and other listed electronics companies, and buy the bottom of South Korea's electronic technology at about 5 million U.S. dollars."

Liang Botao immediately said, "Okay, no problem!"

The market value of Samsung Electronics is 45 billion US dollars, which is pitifully low. Within five years, 500 billion US dollars will be easy.

In December last year, the market value of Samsung Electronics was as low as 12 billion US dollars. After all, the country almost went bankrupt.In the first half of this year, the Korean stock market as a whole fell. Now the market is only more than 36 points. After all, bankruptcies and unemployment are flooding South Korea.

It is only at this time that the bottom is bought, and it is also because the South Korean government introduced many policies in May to encourage foreign capital to invest in South Korea.

Lin Zuhui felt a little heartbroken when Barings Bank spent about US$12 billion all at once. Fortunately, he had many ways to make money.Therefore, the remaining 5 million US dollars must also be used.

"President Andre, the dollar has been strong recently, and the dollar has risen against the yen all the way. It is bound to not be a long-term thing. Therefore, you are in charge of Barings Bank's short selling of the dollar against the yen. I looked at it, and now the dollar against the yen is approaching 140 points Now, I don’t know how much it will rise in this wave, and the risk is still very high. In this way, if it is above 140 points, sell short, and the daily limit of 1000 million US dollars cannot exceed 1.5 million US dollars in total.”

He really can't remember the specific trend of USD and JPY, but now he mostly relies on analysis to do finance.

Of course, the general trend is still the decisive factor, otherwise he really wouldn't dare to make this kind of venture capital.

The yen has depreciated wildly in the past year or so because of the impact of the Asian financial crisis. In particular, Japanese banks have invested and loaned a lot in Southeast Asia, which has been greatly affected.

Now, the financial crisis has come to an end, and in this wave of financial crisis, countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia have united and held many official meetings.

Might be coming to an end!
Beyond that, USDJPY is unlikely to break above 150, an index that won't break until 24 years from now.

Therefore, he still has [-]% confidence in this wave of foreign exchange, at least he still has a large amount of margin.

Andre's spirits immediately became high. This boss knows how to spend money, and he will definitely make money. He almost never misses in finance.

"Okay, we must strictly follow your instructions!"

Lin Zuhui nodded, then looked at the two executives of Octopus Bank.

"October Bank also has a lot of cash, and we should make full use of it. You go to South Korea to buy their banks, but it is not the secondary market, but to subscribe for new shares. We only make strategic investments, not control rights. Koreans must be very welcome."

After the Asian financial crisis, South Korea has two industries with the highest rate of return, the first is the electronics industry, and the second is the bank.

Foreign capital in the Bank of Korea once accounted for 70%, and of course almost all of the capital is investment in nature; as for the controlling stake, it must be at least after South Korea introduced another policy at the end of the year.

It is said that South Korea is heartbroken about how high the rate of return of banks in the financial crisis is. The key is that some US-funded financial institutions are still "tax evading", which makes the South Korean government very annoyed.

He Changhong asked, "How much is the boss planning to invest?"

Lin Zuhui said: "Only 100 billion Hong Kong dollars is mainly invested in big banks, such as the Kookmin Bank of Korea. Pay attention to the investment conditions. We are going to make money. We will sell the stocks after the ban is lifted. If we can avoid taxes reasonably, we will avoid taxes."

He Changhong was taken aback, and said, "So many?"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "Going to South Korea now is to steal money. This country itself has strong export capabilities and can quickly reverse the impact of the financial crisis. Therefore, investment is very profitable. If there are insufficient opportunities in the banking field, you can also directly Buying stocks of other companies in the secondary market does not necessarily require an investment bank.”

He Changhong and Li Huiling finally had no doubts, and quickly expressed their execution.

The funds used by Octopus Bank this time are the working capital of Octopus, and not all of them.At the same time, Octopus Bank's loan-to-deposit ratio is not high, and its structure is very safe.

Therefore, in the end, Lin Zuhui said: "Xiangjiang Real Estate has almost fallen to the bottom. Although it will not recover soon, some loans can be extended appropriately."

He Changhong said: "Okay, I understand!"

As far as the boss's ability, what to do is not successful, everyone said in admiration.

After some arrangements, Lin Zuhui announced the end of the meeting with satisfaction, and everyone went to get busy.

This time the Asian financial crisis, Octopus Financial Group is full.

Barings Bank merged Peregrine and bought a number of potential listed companies;
Octopus Bank took the opportunity to set up branches in many parts of Asia and entered the Korean financial circle.

Octopus Securities also annexed two securities companies on the verge of bankruptcy, expanding its business again.

The next day.

Lin Zuhui and his fourth wife Cai Ning came to the LEIT Group building, and the staff who passed by greeted her. Of course, they called Cai Ning her former senior management position in the LEIT Group 'Manager Cai'.

Although many people know about the relationship between Cai Ning and Lin Zuhui, Lin Zuhui has never publicly said that he has a second wife or third wife after all, and he always says that he is a "confidant".

When she came to the office, Cai Ning took over as an assistant and served tea and water for Lin Zuhui. After all, she was born as Lin Zuhui's secretary, so she was naturally familiar with it.

Cai Ning went to Australia in the past few years, and the business community there has also begun to emerge. She is very suitable for doing business, and with so many years of training, her business in Australia mainly includes: real estate and wine.

"You secretary, you haven't lost your craftsmanship!" Lin Zuhui joked while sipping tea.

"Where will it be lost! I just don't know if your taste has changed!" Cai Ning stood beside Lin Zuhui and smiled softly.

Lin Zuhui leaned on the chair, motioned Cai Ning to come closer, then took her hand and said, "Has it changed?"

Cai Ning immediately understood Lin Zuhui's meaning, and immediately said: "No more, boss!" showing a little girl.

What Lin Zuhui meant was that he didn't change his mind about these women. Although he has a new girlfriend, his chest is broad enough!
Cai Ning naturally echoed Lin Zuhui's meaning, except that he had less time to accompany them, Lin Zuhui's attitude towards them was indeed the same as before.

The two chatted for a while, and then remembered the knock on the door.

The one who came in was Chen Shiwen, the president of LEIT Group. He was not surprised to see Cai Ning inside.

"Boss, Manager Cai!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "Sit"

Cai Ning left Lin Zuhui's side to make tea for Chen Shiwen, and Chen Shiwen quickly bowed to thank him.

Lin Zuhui said: "The store expansion of several brands, how is the situation?"

Chen Shiwen immediately made a detailed report, and many brands started to make efforts in Asia, taking advantage of the low price of selling/renting the front door, and started to expand, everything went very smoothly.

After the report, Lin Zuhui expressed his affirmation: "Well, that's it, the economy will always recover!"

Then, Lin Zuhui said: "The LEIT Group will carry out the acquisition of two projects, and you will be responsible for them yourself!"

Chen Shiwen immediately said: "Boss, please tell me!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "The first one is to acquire the capital of Ruoshi Manor, the second largest red wine group in Australia. It is just a joint acquisition with Cai Ning's company. LEIT Group holds [-]% of the shares, but Cai Ning's name is The company is the main one, and we will jointly manage it after the acquisition!"

In recent years, Cai Ning has established a wine company in Australia and acquired several small and medium-sized Australian wine estates.

But now, Lin Zuhui intends to use Cai Ning's identity to form the largest wine group in Australia; first to acquire the second Ruoshi Manor, and then to plan for the number one southern wine.

Chen Shiwen nodded and said, "Okay, let's form a consortium as soon as possible and initiate an acquisition."

Lin Zuhui said with satisfaction: "It is really necessary as soon as possible, preferably a blitz, and you can report the situation to me at any time. According to my analysis, the exchange rate of the Australian dollar to the euro will fall, and the Australian government will introduce various preferential measures in recent years. , so Australian wine has more and more advantages in competing with old world countries.”

Chen Shiwen's eyes lit up, and he knew it all at once, and said, "Okay, we must pay close attention to efficiency!"

Then, Lin Zuhui said again: "Do you still remember the matter of Fei Le?"

Chen Shiwen nodded and said, "Of course I remember, we are waiting for the opportunity and ready to make a purchase at any time!"

What is an opportunity? Of course, Fila is going downhill, and the major shareholder intends to release the market.

Lin Zuhui said: "Yes, Fila is definitely our high-end sports brand. However, before that, you have to acquire Fila from South Korea. I don't want to acquire Fila's global brand in the future. Korea is an independent brand." kingdom."

His idea is to delist Fila, which is listed in the United States, around 2000-2001.

Then, naturally, he began to use his prophetic skills to sign football superstars such as Ronaldo and Messi, as well as NBA stars.

After all, there is a process for football stars to become famous, and it is completely possible to miss it.

As for James in the NBA, he signed a 7-year 9000 million contract with Nike as soon as he entered the NBA in his previous life. If there is a chance, it is not impossible for Fila to offer a higher contract.

After all, sports brands rely on added value. As for technology, everyone has it. What's more, there are customers who directly ask what top technology this pair of sneakers has.

Chen Shiwen immediately said: "Boss, foreign capital now accounts for 50% of the maximum authority of listed companies in Korea."

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "It will be 100% soon, and hostile takeovers are fine, so go and ambush first!"

Chen Shiwen's eyes lit up. The boss said that South Korea will introduce new policies, so there must be nothing wrong.

"Okay, I'm going to have Barings as our financial advisor!"

"Well, it should be!"

Definitely find your own company as a financial advisor!
After Chen Shiwen left.

Lin Zuhui said to Cai Ning: "Although it is a joint management, everything is still up to you. You have to learn from the management experience of the LEIT Group and master the Red Wine Group as soon as possible, because in the future you will have to acquire Southern Wine to form Australia's largest wine group. It is the property of you and my children."

Luchen Family is the "company name" of the red wine business of LEIT Group. Of course, Luchen Family is also its top wine brand; The reason for the family's shareholding.

When the next acquisition of Southern Wine is made, LEIT Group's shareholding can be reduced, and Cai Ning's shareholding can be increased.

In this way, Cai Ning will become Australia's wine queen.

To be honest, even if the two major wine brands in Australia are acquired, it will only cost about 200 billion Hong Kong dollars (not sure yet), which is drizzle and sprinkling water for Lin Zuhui.

After the millennium, he really had no place to disperse his money, so he could only buy property for these women.

We have been getting along for so many years, and it is unlikely to betray. Lin Zuhui is also confident now, and the more important thing is that the children are grown up, so we can't be too defensive.

It's just a few dollars, these women are not that stupid, and Lin Zuhui is not that stingy.

Cai Ning nodded happily, almost moved to tears.

"Well, don't worry, I will definitely guard the Lin branch in Australia and unite with the Lin family."

She knew that if Lin Zuhui was a womanizer, the women around her would definitely change from one another, so there was no need to arrange them.Therefore, my man's idea is to strengthen the family.

Lin Zuhui patted Cai Ning's sloppy buttocks, and said, "You are the most sensible!"

Cai Ning said coquettishly: "No way, every one of your women doesn't listen to you, you are so charming."

This woman made Lin Zuhui very happy!

The palm of his hand was on Chi Caining's thigh, and it felt very good.Knowing that Lin Zuhui likes her figure, this woman specially exercises this kind of figure, which is almost the figure of the Kardashian family in her previous life, but Cai Ning is just over 1 meters tall, which is much stronger than Kim Kardashian's height of less than 7 meters.
