I lost my vegetative state, and I became the richest man in the world

Chapter 61 Coveting Hutchison Whampoa Candidates!
Yang Ming naturally guessed the reason why Shen Yan invited him to meet at the Xiangjiang Jockey Club.

Yang Ming knew that this Shen Yan was definitely not the kind of business-like person.

If that was the case, historically, he would not have sold Hutchison Whampoa to Li Jiacheng at a low price.

It can be known from Shen Yan's retirement that Shen Yan's family not only collected many valuable Swiss gold watches, but also a very special gift.

It was exactly what Li Jiacheng gave him back then.

It is said that according to the model of the Huifeng Bank Building, Li Jiacheng gave Shen Yan a golden statue of the Huifeng Bank Building, which is more than one meter high.

If it wasn't because Shen Yan sold Hutchison Whampoa to Li Jiacheng cheaply, how could Li Jiacheng give such an expensive gift?

From this point of view, this Shen Yan is not only selfish, but also greedy.

Others are greedy for money.

He is greedy for Swiss gold watches, or greedy for gold.

Whether it is a Swiss gold watch or gold, they can actually be exchanged for money.

From the boxes of Rui Shi gold watches collected by the other party, we can know that they were all gifts from others during his tenure at Huifeng Bank, especially during his tenure at Huifeng Bank. We can know that he has been greedy for a lot of things .

Yang Ming's biggest fear is that the other party is not greedy, so it will be more difficult for him to attack.

"Kayla, do you think Mr. Shen is willing to sell me the shares of Hutchison International?" Yang Ming asked Kaila a little closer.

Keira said directly: "Not necessarily."

"why?"

"Mr. Yang, there are many people who are eyeing Hutchison Whampoa. I know that there are rich Chinese like Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang, and even other British rich people who are very coveted by Hutchison Whampoa. I even heard that, Now Hutchison Whampoa CEO Wei Li and his management team have always wanted to negotiate with Huifeng Bank to obtain a controlling stake in Hutchison International."

Wei Li?

This Wei Li is no ordinary person.

He is of Scottish origin and was born in Australia in 1932, making him 46 years old.

For Wei Li, this person is still very legendary.

At the beginning, he was a logger in Australia, and later joined Xinjiapo Company. After successfully saving several companies, he arrived in Hong Kong for development in 1964. He even turned a number of Hong Kong companies from loss to profit. , That is to say, it can bring the company back to life.

In 1975, after Huifeng Bank became the largest shareholder of Hutchison International, it invited Wei Li to serve as the executive president of Hutchison International.

After Wei Li took office, Hutchison International made great efforts to rectify and reform, stop losses, improve the group management system, and even merged Hutchison International and Whampoa Dockyard into Hutchison Whampoa last year.

When Li Jiacheng and others coveted Hutchison Whampoa, now Hutchison Whampoa has started to get on the right track and started to make profits.

In this case, Wayley and his management team certainly have ambitions.

They hope to take the shares of Hutchison International from Huifeng Bank and control Hutchison Whampoa.

However, the policy of Huifeng Bank has long determined that it is impossible to sell Hutchison Whampoa to the British capital, and Wei Li's management team is naturally impossible to succeed.

Keira said Wylie and his management team also wanted to take Hutchison Whampoa.

In Yang Ming's view, it was impossible.

In any case, this Wei Li is like an outsider. He was invited by Huifeng Bank to take care of Hutchison Whampoa temporarily. How could he become the new owner of Hutchison Whampoa?

Wayley and his management team are the least likely to get Hutchison Whampoa.

"Wei Li and his management team are absolutely impossible." Yang Ming said directly.

"Mr. Yang, you are right. It is impossible for Huifeng Bank to sell the shares of Hutchison Whampoa to Wei Li and his management team. In my opinion, the most promising one is Hutchison Whampoa. Either Li Jiacheng or Bao Yugang."

"why?"

Yang Ming learned about it from Kaila.

It turns out that in recent years, Changjiang Industrial and Huifeng Bank have cooperated a lot, and Li Jiacheng and Shen Yan are also relatively close friends.

Not to mention Bao Yugang.

Bao Yugang cooperated with Huifeng Bank in the 60s.

In the 70s, it even had a joint venture with Huifeng Bank.

For example, Huifeng Bank has shares in Global Shipping, and Global Shipping also has shares in Huifeng Bank. Bao Yugang is also a major shareholder of Huifeng Bank.

Historically, Shen Yan decided to sell the shares of Hutchison International to Li Jiacheng, and Bao Yugang was the witness.

At that time, Bao Yugang was also the major shareholder of Huifeng Bank, and he had no decision-making power. Whether he opposed Shen Yan's sale of Hutchison International's shares to Li Jiacheng, he was of no use.

Because the decision-making power rests with Shen Yan.

As for the other directors of Huifeng Bank, even the shareholders are useless.

"Mr. Yang, according to my understanding of Huifeng Bank, now that Hutchison Whampoa has started to get on the right track, we must sell the shares of Hutchison Whampoa to a third party as we said back then. Therefore, I think the sooner you get it to the better."

Keira could think that way.

That is naturally because Huifeng Bank is a financial bank, and credit is very important.

Now many people are watching.

Since Huifeng Bank said that it will sell its shares when Hutchison Whampoa is on the right track and can make a profit, then it shouldn't be too long to wait.

On this point, Yang Ming knew.

Historically, on September 1979, 9, Shen Yan officially sold all the shares of Hutchison International to Li Jiacheng, thus allowing Li Jiacheng to go straight to the sky.

It's February 1978, 2, which seems early.

Actually, not really that slow.

"Kayla, I can tell you that when I was preparing to swallow Wharf, I was actually preparing to swallow Hutchison Whampoa."

what?
Kayla almost cried out in surprise.

Yang Ming is also planning to swallow Hutchison Whampoa?

"How, how is this possible?"

"Speaking of which, it is actually easier to acquire Hutchison Whampoa than Wharf. Because Wharf's biggest opponent is Jardine Land. If Jardine Land is not a surprise attack, it will not be so easy when Jardine Land reacts. Take Wharf."

Historically, Bao Yugang took many years to swallow Wharf, and even almost missed it.

Now that Yang Ming is making a sneak attack, it is still under the condition of sufficient liquidity for a thunderous strike.

As for Hutchison Whampoa, it is different.

If he persuaded Shen Yan to sell Hutchison International's shares to him like Li Jiacheng did, then he would win it without any difficulty.

Li Jiacheng persuaded Shen Yan. In fact, it took a lot of time, including financial and material resources, and emotional investment. It is even said that Li Jiacheng's wife Zhuang Yueming met Shen Yan many times in private. Outsiders don't know what the two sides talked about. up.

Now Yang Ming is different from Li Jiacheng, he doesn't have to humble himself like Li Jiacheng to please Shen Yan.

"I have had people secretly acquire 10% of Hutchison International's shares."

10% of stocks?
Keira was also a little surprised. She didn't expect that Yang Ming had quietly bought more than 2000 million shares of Hutchison International without knowing it.

This is much worse than the 9000 million shares of Huifeng Bank.

As long as Yang Ming gets these, coupled with Yang Ming's own reasons now, the scale of the initiative will gradually move closer to him.

If Shen Yan had to sell the shares of Hutchison International to Li Jiacheng, he would have to think twice.
