Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 898 I want to buy Hang Seng Bank
The reason why Qin Haoran didn't use his own name to acquire Hang Seng Bank was to avoid facing the British banks in Hong Kong.And if the acquisition is carried out through the "Zeus Fund", even if the British banks headed by HSBC find out in the United States, Qin Haoran himself will not be involved.

After all, British banks such as HSBC are wealthy and powerful in Hong Kong, and if they fully match up with them, then Qin Haoran's company in Hong Kong will immediately encounter great difficulties.Qin Haoran will not easily expose himself until he has enough strength to fully suppress HSBC.

And after Hang Seng Bank is acquired by "Zeus Fund", Qin Haoran will be able to do things conveniently through "Zeus Fund".At that time, Qin Haoran will transfer out the shares of Hang Seng Bank so that he can control it more easily, and no one will be able to find out.

"Haoran, what about Longsheng Bank? What are you going to do to them?" This is a question that Bao Yugang is very curious about.

Qin Haoran squinted his eyes, and a sneer appeared on his face: "They thought they could unscrupulously retaliate against me with Sanders, hum! I will let them know how serious the consequences are."

Qin Jiangshan went to the Jiang family to expose Qin Haoran and Jiang Yurou's "personal relationship". This is the Qin family's small trick to Qin Haoran. Although there will be no commercial benefits, it can make Qin Haoran suffer from family life for a while. It can also make Qin Zhongyuan and the others happy.

"What's more, colluding with the British to deal with local Chinese companies is not a glorious thing at all." Qin Haoran said: "If such a person is not severely punished, no one will be comfortable."

Bao Yugang spewed out a wisp of white smoke, and said, "As for those relatively small Chinese-funded banks, I don't think you will save them either."

Qin Haoran nodded: "That's right, all I want is Hang Seng Bank. After all, although there are many Chinese-funded banks, there are good and bad ones. This time, it's a good opportunity to get rid of the chaff and save the chaff."

In addition, Qin Haoran knows that Hong Kong will restrict the issuance of bank licenses in the near future, and it is also to solidify Hong Kong's banks.

"Well, congratulations on becoming the new boss of Hang Seng Bank, let's toast." Bao Yugang raised his glass to Qin Haoran.

Qin Haoran also raised his glass with a smile, and lightly touched Bao Yugang's glass, making a crisp sound.

The next day, the run-out situation of Hang Seng Bank continued to worsen, and HSBC Bank also took the initiative to lend a helping hand to Hang Seng Bank, dispatching employees to the lobby of Hang Seng Bank to ensure depositors that Hang Seng Bank has sufficient funds.But this has not brought any effect, and there are still a large number of depositors who come to withdraw their funds.

Within a day, Hang Seng Bank was withdrawn 8000 million Hong Kong dollars, nearly one-sixth of the total deposits of Hang Seng Bank.As of today, the total amount of funds withdrawn from Hang Seng Bank has reached more than 2 million.

In the evening, He Shanheng, the founder of Hang Seng Bank, Li Guowei, the deputy general manager, and several other senior executives gathered in He Shanheng's residence.

After going through a series of events during this period, He Shanheng, who was not young in the first place, was exhausted physically and mentally, his hair was graying, and his face was full of sorrow.

Li Guowei, who was sitting by the window, sighed, and took the lead in saying: "Now we have reached the brink of collapse. If this continues, our bank will not be able to repay our debts, and may even go bankrupt."

Another member of the board of directors also said: "Yes, now our funds are about to be emptied by those depositors. If the situation continues like this, I don't think it will take long before our bank will be shut down and taken over by the government."

He Shanheng half leaned on the back of the chair, holding one hand on the armrest of the chair to support his body. He has been in the banking industry for decades, but now he is showing signs of fatigue.He Shanheng said: "Now Chase Bank and HSBC have said they are willing to help us, but their assistance is not unconditional, and their purpose is to eat up our Hang Seng."

"Chase Bank has ulterior motives. Although it said it would help us, it is through loans, and the interest rate is extremely high. This is obviously taking advantage of the fire!" Li Guowei said: "Compared to comparison, HSBC Bank is more sincere."

"Those guys at HSBC are not much better. Those British people, do you really think they are helping us sincerely?" said a director.

He Shanheng waved his hand, and everyone fell silent, and He Shanheng said, "We are running out of time now. If we don't come up with countermeasures, Hang Seng Bank, which we have worked hard for 30 years, will collapse!"

At this time, a servant from the family knocked on the door and entered the study, and said to He Shanheng: "Master, there is a gentleman outside who wants to see you, and he said he can help you solve the bank's problems."

He Shanheng, Li Guowei and others frowned when they heard the words. They came to visit He Shanheng at this time, and they kept saying that they could help He Shanheng solve the bank's problems. This unexpected visitor made people both curious and vigilant.

And He Shanheng just thought about it, and said to the servant: "Please come in."

Soon, a mature man who looked only 23 or [-] years old but had an aura beyond his age walked in behind the servant.Seeing this stalwart and handsome man, He Shanheng and Li Guowei were all surprised, because they all knew this man.

It should be said that in the mainstream business circle in Hong Kong, there should be few people who do not know this young man.Because this young man founded a real estate development company, bought two pieces of government land with great development potential at high prices one after another, and built the tallest building in Asia on one of the pieces of land, and opened a new building in this building. The most luxurious hotel in Asia, it is also the first Chinese restaurant in the world to be awarded a five-star rating by the Mobil Institute.

With this, this young man caused a sensation in Hong Kong. Everyone was amazed at his ability and at the same time his youth.This young man is naturally Qin Haoran.

Although He Shanheng, Li Guowei and others knew Qin Haoran, they had no contact with him. At this time, Qin Haoran's sudden visit surprised them.

"Mr. He, hello, I have admired you for a long time." Qin Haoran said with a smile.

"Mr. Qin, hello, hello." He Shanheng immediately stood up, took Qin Haoran's outstretched hand, and shook it vigorously: "I have been famous for you for a long time, and I have always wanted to get acquainted, but before you not in Hong Kong."

In fact, He Shanheng really planned to get to know Qin Haoran, but Qin Haoran was in the United States before, and He Shanheng was also devastated by the Hong Kong banking crisis, so there is no further information.

"Mr. He, you are too polite. To be honest, I came here this time to discuss the future of Hang Seng Bank with you." Qin Haoran said.

When mentioning Hang Seng Bank, everyone's faces immediately became heavy, because Hang Seng Bank has reached this point, if there is no external support, it will be hard to get back.

I only heard Qin Haoran say: "Hang Seng is almost exhausted now, I think you are ready to seek help from the outside world."

He Shanheng nodded: "That's right, as you said, Mr. Qin, we can't hold on anymore."

Qin Haoran sighed: "Then which one do you prefer? Chase Bank? Or HSBC?"

Everyone in He Shanheng was surprised when they heard what Qin Haoran said. They didn't expect that Qin Haoran knew so much about Hang Seng Bank's activities, even the two preferred customers of Hang Seng Bank.

"However, I think, Mr. He, you should all know that both Chase Bank and HSBC have malicious intentions." Qin Haoran said, "Chase Bank is purely trying to take advantage of the fire, and as for HSBC, they are trying to do it from the very beginning." Those who are eyeing your Hang Seng Bank are just waiting for you to decide to sell the shares of Hang Seng Bank.”

Qin Haoran's words once again caused waves among He Shanheng and He Shanheng.He immediately asked Qin Haoran: "Mr. Qin, what do you mean?"

"Mr. He, I guess you have already noticed it yourself." Qin Haoran smiled slightly: "Since the second half of last year, there have been bad rumors against Hang Seng Bank. Banks went bankrupt one after another, and in the end it was the turn of the most powerful Chinese-funded bank, which is Hang Seng Bank. Mr. He, with your shrewdness, you can't miss the clues here."

He Shanheng bowed his head in silence, frowning deeply, and finally said after a while: "Indeed, I really have doubts about this, but I haven't found any evidence..."

Qin Haoran waved his hand: "There is no need for any evidence. From the point of view of motivation alone, HSBC is the biggest culprit. Because it is the entire Chinese-funded banking industry that is in crisis now, and if all Chinese-funded banks collapse, the biggest Who is the beneficiary? Isn’t it the British-funded banks headed by HSBC? As long as Hang Seng, the largest Chinese-funded bank, is knocked down, no other Chinese-funded banks can pose a threat to HSBC.”

Everyone in Li Guowei nodded their heads involuntarily after hearing Qin Haoran's words, and Qin Haoran continued: "This series of things is basically caused by HSBC's collusion with Longsheng Bank!"

But He Shanheng shook his head and sighed: "It's useless to say anything now. If there is no external support, our Hang Seng Bank will collapse."

Qin Haoran took a deep breath and said, "That's why I came here, Mr. He, if I want to buy your Hang Seng Bank, what do you think?"

He Shanheng was stunned when he heard the words, but he didn't expect Qin Haoran to make such a suggestion, not only He Shanheng, everyone in the study was stunned.
