People in Hong Kong create super chaebols

Niu Bijian is here today, representing the Hong Kong Land Development.

With the assistance of Bao Fuda, general manager of the real estate company, legal advisor and others, Su Cheng successfully signed a stock transfer contract with them.

Afterwards, Su Cheng was very straightforward and called the finance department directly to transfer HK$2.76 million to the account of the Hong Kong Land Development Company.

"Mr. Su, it's a pleasure to work with you!" Mr. Niu Bijian expressed great satisfaction with the result of the transaction, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Through this cooperation, Niu Bijian's personal impression and attitude towards Mr. Su Cheng also underwent a significant change, and it seemed that a deeper friendship and trust was established between the two sides in an instant.

"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Niu Bijian!" Mr. Su Cheng also responded with a smile.

For him, this deal was not only a bargain, but also opened the door to the board of directors of Wheelock & Co., an important step in his business empire.

"Since all matters have been resolved satisfactorily, I will not bother you any more, Mr. Su. I look forward to more cooperation in the future. Goodbye!" Mr. Niu Bijian said goodbye politely, and then led Mr. Bao Fuda and others to leave the Su Group Building.

Watching the backs of everyone leaving, Su Cheng's eyes gradually became deep and he fell into deep thought.

Compared to just controlling the Wheelock Group, he had a grander vision in his mind - to control the two British giants, Jardine Matheson and Land Development.

It is true that Wheelock Group enjoys a high reputation in the industry, but its strength is still inferior to that of Jardine Matheson and Landsea combined.

However, Su Cheng naturally understood his current financial resources and strength.

He confidently assessed the current situation and firmly believed that he was fully capable of bringing these three companies under his control one by one.

Therefore, whether it is the Wheelock Group or the more powerful Jardine Matheson Group and Hong Kong Land Development, he is determined to acquire them.

Once he successfully controls these three companies, the only British companies in Hong Kong's business world that can compete with him will be Swire Group and the Huifeng Group.

As for Huifeng, Suzhou City has already included it in its long-term planning, although the realization of this goal may require a long wait, or even more than ten or twenty years of careful planning.

But Su Cheng didn't care about it, because what he lacked the least was time and patience.

In his opinion, even if it takes more than ten years, he will only be middle-aged by then, which is the peak period of his life.

On October 10, Hong Kong Land Development announced a major transaction as usual: the company has transferred all of its shares in Wheelock Group to Tianyuan Investment Company.

These are the responsibilities that Hong Kong Land Development should have as a listed company.

This sudden news quickly attracted widespread attention from all walks of life and sparked heated discussions among citizens.

What is particularly noteworthy is that just a few days ago, Jardine Matheson Group transferred its shares in Wheelock Properties to Hong Kong Land Development on equal terms.

This transfer took place less than a week, and the Swire Properties Group quickly decided to sell these shares to Tianyuan Investment Company.

Such an operation undoubtedly deepened the speculation and discussion of the outside world. As we all know, Tianyuan Investment Company is actually a private investment institution controlled by Su Cheng personally, and every move of it is deeply marked by Su Cheng.

Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the act of the Hong Kong Land Development Company reselling its shares to Tianyuan Investment Company was tantamount to directly sending Su Cheng to a position on the board of directors of Wheelock.

For a time, there were endless speculations and discussions about Suzhou's commercial layout, capital operations, and future market trends.

People have speculated whether there are more far-reaching strategic considerations behind Su Cheng's move, and his ambitions and plans for Hong Kong and even the broader market have once again become the focus of public attention.

Previously, Jardine Matheson Group had always maintained a low-key and secretive attitude, secretly absorbing shares of Wheelock Group, so the outside world knew very little about it.

It was not until the news was officially announced that people suddenly realized that Jardine Matheson had never given up its intention to acquire Wheelock Group, and its actions were so secretive that it was astonishing.

However, what is even more unexpected is that these shares, which were originally regarded as Jardine's strategic reserves, were silently acquired by Su Cheng through the Tianyuan Investment Company controlled by him.

This sudden change undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on the business world, triggering widespread attention and heated discussions from all walks of life.

As a heavyweight in the business community, every move Su Cheng makes appears to be well-thought-out and extremely precise.

The fact that he was able to successfully take over the shares of Wheelock Group that Jardine Matheson had originally targeted not only demonstrated his business acumen and strength, but also made the outside world curious and speculative about his business layout and strategic intentions.

Therefore, this incident naturally became a topic of conversation among people after dinner, and everyone discussed the deeper meaning behind Suzhou's move, as well as the possible impact of this change on Hong Kong and even the entire business landscape.

Such news came like a bolt from the blue and instantly spread to every corner of the Wheelock Group.

John Madden sat in his office, holding the newspaper tightly in his hand, staring blankly at the news headlines, his face full of disbelief.

He never expected that he would have such an intricate and deep connection with Sioux City.

In Hong Kong's relatively small business circle, although the Wheelock Group has business dealings with Suzhou's Su Group and Hutchison Whampoa Group, these are limited to normal business cooperation and have never touched on sensitive areas such as group equity.

Now, Sioux City has quietly become a shareholder of Wheelock Group, and its shareholding ratio cannot be ignored. This sudden change has made John Madden feel unprecedented pressure and challenges.

Faced with this tricky situation, John Madden's brows furrowed involuntarily.

He understood Su Cheng's status and influence in the business world. Every move of this business overlord was enough to shake the entire market.

Therefore, how to properly deal with this new shareholder and how to establish a mutually beneficial and win-win relationship with Sioux City while maintaining the independence of the Wheelock Group have become important issues that John Madden urgently needs to resolve.

"What is Sioux City's purpose?" John Madden sat at his desk, folded his hands, and fell into deep thought.

After years of experience in the business world, he is well aware of his status and influence, and he has unshakable decision-making power over the future direction of the Wheelock Group.

Therefore, he has never really worried that the group will be easily acquired by external forces. (End of this chapter)
