People in Hong Kong create super chaebols

Melis just called Zhang Qizheng, and within two seconds, the other party answered the phone.

Soon, Melis explained his purpose.

Hearing what Melis said, Zhang Qizheng was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

"Mr. Zhang, what are you doing?" Melis asked doubtfully.

"Mr. Mellis should be in the office, right?" Zhang Qizheng asked.

"Yes, I'm in the corporate office," Melis replied.

"It just so happens that I have just returned to the company. After I take care of some things, I will come over to see you later." Zhang Qizheng said.

The thing Zhang Qizheng was talking about was naturally contacting the person in charge of Leland Automobile Group through connections.

After getting in touch and confirming that we can negotiate, he will fly to the UK to negotiate with the other party.

The UK and Hong Kong are too far away, so Zhang Qizheng cannot just fly there without confirming that they can negotiate.

Melis didn't wait long. In about twenty minutes, Zhang Qizheng came to his office.

"Hello Mr. Zhang."

"Good afternoon Mr. Mellis."

After the two of them sat down, Zhang Qizheng smiled directly and said: "Mr. Melis, I already know your problem. I am not afraid to say that China Bus wants to expand. If it wants to annex the entire Kowloon Peninsula market, it is definitely not true. Possibly, but it would be very simple in my opinion to just expand into a few more irrelevant territories.”

"Mr. Zhang, please elaborate." Mailis sat upright like a student, preparing to listen to Zhang Qizheng's opinions.

"Don't worry, before I talk about this, let me tell you about the Hong Kong Electric Group. Mr. Mellis should also know about the Hong Kong Electric Group. It is also a listed public utility company controlled absolutely by the boss. Its nature is somewhat similar to that of China Bus. It’s similar, except that Hong Kong Electric Group is a power supply company and China Bus is a bus company,” Zhang Qizheng continued.

"Is there any connection between Hong Kong Electric Group and China Bus's desire to expand?" Melis couldn't help but ask.

Although he has only been in Hong Kong for a short time, he also knows that Hong Kong Electric Group is a listed company under Sioux City, and it seems that the acquisition has not been very long.

Of course, he can't know everything. After all, when he was at Haw Par Company, his market focus was more in Nanyang than Xiangjiang. Although Xiangjiang is also a very important market, he did not Spend too much thought on this.

Therefore, Malis actually only knew the general situation of the Hong Kong Electric Group. As for what happened during that period, he did not pay attention to it.

"Mr. Melis, don't be impatient. Listen to me slowly. You will understand after I finish speaking." Zhang Qizheng said with a smile.

Melis nodded and finally stopped interrupting.

“The Hong Kong Electric Group and China Bus have their business scope on Hong Kong Island. Therefore, in terms of business scope, they are at an inherent disadvantage and cannot be compared with China Electric Power, the power supply company in the Kowloon Peninsula.

After the boss acquired the Hong Kong Electric Group, he tried to expand the power supply range of the Hong Kong Electric Group.

As a result, he directly and secretly purchased shares of China Power and Electric Power, and contacted shareholders of China Power and Power Corporation other than the Kadoorie family in an attempt to acquire the shares of these shareholders.

In fact, the boss never thought about annexing China Electric Power from beginning to end, because even if he wanted to, the Xiangjiang government would not agree. This is just a means of coercion.

When the boss made the news of the acquisition of China Power to the public, as the helmsman of China Power, the Kadoorie family was anxious. They sought help from the government, increased their holdings of CLP Power shares, and tried to negotiate with their bosses.

In the end, with the intervention of the government, the boss came up with his own conditions. He could give up his control of China Electric Power, but he had to cede the power supply rights of a part of the area to the Hong Kong Electric Group. In the end, he successfully won the three places of Tuen Mun, Islands and Sai Kung.

Not only that, relying on the shares of China Electric Power acquired earlier, the boss also made a lot of money in the stock market, making hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

It can be said that in terms of current power supply area, HK Electric Group and China Electric Power are almost the same. However, because Tuen Mun, Islands, and Sai Kung have not yet developed, HK Electric Group has a lower power supply in terms of population and electricity consumption. The group is still not as good as China Power.

But in the future, after the development of the three places, especially Tuen Mun and Sai Kung, it will not be a problem for HK Electric Group to catch up with China Electric Power Company in terms of power supply.

After this business war, the total market value of Hong Kong Electric Group quickly surpassed that of CLP Power and became the largest power supply company in Hong Kong.

The previous development situations of China Bus and Hong Kong Electric Group were very similar, but after this incident, it can be seen that even if the government is restrained, as long as the strength is strong enough, the other party will always make concessions.

After all, although your government cannot let a consortium monopolize a public utility industry, if the boss really wants to take over China Power, he can control China Power in another name instead of controlling it in the name of Tianyuan Investment Company.

As long as it is done within the rules, not even the government can do anything about it! "

Zhang Qizheng smiled and briefly introduced the previous game between Hong Kong Electric Group and China Bus.

Naturally, the level of brilliance cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

As for Melis, his eyes became brighter and brighter the more he listened.

He didn't expect that the boss was so powerful in Hong Kong. From the story, it can be seen that even the Hong Kong Governor's Office did not dare to say no to the boss easily.

"I didn't expect there to be such a wonderful business war, and I didn't know about it." Melis sighed.

"The dispute between Hong Kong Electric Group and China Bus took place in December last year. In fact, the media reported it extensively during that time. Maybe Mr. Melis didn't pay much attention to it," Zhang Qizheng said with a smile.

"In December, Haw Par Company's business encountered difficulties. In addition, it was trying to open up new markets in Europe and the United States. During that time, I often traveled to European and American countries, so I really didn't pay much attention to the news in Xiangjiang." Melis nodded.

"That's no wonder." Zhang Qizheng suddenly realized.

He knew that the news in Singapore and Hong Kong were almost synchronized. It stands to reason that Melis should know about such a big thing.

After listening to his words at this time, combined with the previous situation of Haw Par Company, I instantly understood.

"Mr. Zhang, your words gave me a big reminder. I want to learn more about the game between Hong Kong Electric Group and China Electric Power. I wonder if you have relevant information there?" Melis asked.

"Yes, of course there is. I am also a participant, and I am also the main participant. Of course there is relevant information. Since Mr. Melis needs it, I will compile one for your reference later." Zhang Qizheng smiled.

"Thank you very much."

For Melis, today has benefited a lot.

The most important thing is that it made him understand how capable the boss is in Xiangjiang. (End of chapter)
