Chapter 342: Is Mr. Su interested?

"How about Mr. Su come to our office in the Jardine Headquarters Building to chat." Nie Bijian said.

After Su Cheng heard this, he shook his head and said: "Mr. Nui Bijian should also know that my current situation is very special. I don't like to show my face. If I go to Yihe, I will definitely meet a lot of people. This is not consistent." My style.”

"How about that? Let's talk directly in the Governor's Mansion. I'll apply to Mr. Governor to find an empty office in the Governor's Mansion to talk. I believe it won't be difficult to talk to Mr. Governor about this matter." Jian thought for a while and said.

The current situation of Jardine Matheson is not good. Since the failure in the Wharf Battle, the overall operation of Jardine Matheson has been affected. It even had to sell several properties at a loss to obtain a lot of funds to persist until now.

It is true that Yihe fought too hard with the charter king at the beginning, and it can be said that they basically ignored the cost.

Therefore, Jardine lost too much money in this business war.

Bankruptcy will not happen, but it will affect the established investment plans of many groups.

This seriously disrupted the development of Jardine Matheson.

Although Jardine Matheson has a great business, there are many places where money is needed.

Moreover, the loan they borrowed from the bank has already exceeded the standard, and it is impossible to borrow more.

Therefore, selling the shares of Wharf is the only solution for Jardine Matheson to break the situation.

"Okay." Su Cheng nodded and agreed with Tui Bijian's idea.

It would be best if we could discuss it in the Governor's Palace.

Now, Su Cheng has no idea where to go.

If you leave the Governor's Palace, you will go directly home.

After seeing Su Cheng's agreement, Guan Bijian immediately walked into the governor's office again and talked about the matter with Mailihao, who was still in the office.

After a while, Tui Bijian came out again.

"I made an agreement with Mr. Governor, and a staff member will take us to a free office later." Nian Bijian said to Su Cheng.

This is a small matter in itself, so Mailihao will naturally not refuse.

After a while, a female staff member came over, took Su Cheng and Nian Bijian to an office not far from Mailihao's office, took out the key and opened the door.

"Gentlemen, would you like something to drink?" the female staff member asked.

"No, thank you." Su Cheng replied with a smile.

Since he knew what Nui Bijian was talking about with him, it would definitely not last long, so there was no need for him to bother him.

"I don't need it either." Tui Bijian saw that Su Cheng didn't drink, so he was naturally embarrassed to drink. "Okay, I'll go out first. If you need anything, please call the front desk. I will serve you wholeheartedly." After the female staff member finished speaking, she went out and closed the door for them.

Su Cheng sat opposite Niu Bijian, watched the female staff walk out of the office, and said with a smile: "Mr. Niu Bijian, if you have anything to ask me for, can you tell me?"

Although he knew that Nui Bijian had something to do with him, Su Cheng would definitely not take the initiative to tell him.

Otherwise, it would make Twibijian feel that he really wanted Wharf's shares, and it would be difficult to lower the price like this.

"Mr. Su, let me tell you straight. We, Jardine Matheson Group, currently hold nearly 30% of Wharf stocks. I don't know if Mr. Su is interested. If so, we can sell it to Mr. Su at a preferential price. "Tuibijian didn't beat around the bush and stated his purpose directly.

Su Cheng was not surprised after hearing this. This was something that was expected.

"Wharf? Why don't you sell your stocks to Mr. Bao? As Wharf's current major shareholder and actual controller of Wharf, he should be willing to take over your stocks, right?" Su Cheng said, pretending to be surprised.

Zhuan Bijian smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Su doesn't know. Mr. Bao, like us, spent a lot of money to acquire so much Wharf equity. As far as I know, they also had insufficient liquidity at the time. So I borrowed more than one billion from Huifeng Bank, but now if I ask Mr. Bao to buy it, there is nothing he can do."

Of course Su Cheng knew these things, but what he needed to do now was to act like he didn't know what to do.

"I see, then why would Mr. Nie Bijian think of asking me to buy Wharf's shares? Even if I acquire all the shares in your hands, you will only be a second shareholder and cannot control Wharf. I will buy Your equity doesn't mean much to me, does it?" Su Cheng said seriously.

What Su Cheng has to do is to make sure he doesn't seem to be interested in Wharf, so that he can take the initiative when negotiating prices and win the deal smoothly.

"Looking at the current Xiangjiang consortium, there are only a few people who can take over the Wharf stake in our Jardine Matheson. Mr. Su is one of them. Especially now that Mr. Su has made a lot of money in crude oil, so the funds must be Enough, so I want to discuss it with Mr. Su to see if Mr. Su is interested in taking over the Wharf equity in our hands.

In fact, Wharf is a very high-quality group that owns a large amount of high-quality land. If it is developed well, it will definitely be able to make a lot of profits. As the original controller of Wharf, we at Jardines originally thought that, No one can take away the Wharf from our hands. Unexpectedly, there are so many people already interested in the Wharf.

At the beginning, including Mr. Su, Mr. Li of Cheung Kong Holdings, and Mr. Bao, they had already acquired so much equity in Wharf, but we were still full of confidence. To be honest, we did not lose this battle unjustly.

We actually want to continue to hold the equity in Wharf, but Mr. Su should also understand our current situation and urgently need funds to ease our operational pressure, so selling the equity in Wharf is our only option.

If Mr. Su takes these shares, although he can only be the second shareholder, he may have the opportunity to become the major shareholder of Wharf in the future!That's how enterprises are, not everything remains the same, just like it was before. Who would have thought that Wharf would be taken away by someone under the control of Yihe? "

Tui Bijian said a lot, and in the end even tempted Su Cheng to find time to fight for the controlling stake of Wharf.

For him, it would be best if Sioux City finally had a battle with the charter king.

The chartered ship king caused heavy losses to Jardine and Land. As a strong supporter of Jardine He, he naturally hopes that the chartered ship king will also suffer such an ending. When the time comes, he will be a bystander and enjoy the melons on the side. What a wonderful thing it will be. Something!

"It sounds like a good idea." Su Cheng said with a smile.

"Of course, mastering Wharf is equivalent to mastering the most important cargo handling and warehousing business in Hong Kong. Wharf is a very high-quality listed company, and owning its equity is definitely a very cost-effective thing!" Nian Bi Jian said directly.
