I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state

Chapter 74 Yang Ming shocked the world by swallowing Hutchison Whampoa!

February 8, 1978.

The second day of the first lunar month.

Midnight 0 o'clock.

Queen's Road.

Huifeng Bank Group Headquarters Building.

The lights are bright.

At this time, in the conference room.

In addition to Shen Yi, John Bao and others, there were also reporters from various media outlets in Hong Kong and even some foreign media reporters based in Hong Kong. They all received a very important news, and Huifeng Bank announced the important news to the outside world.

Although they inquired in advance that it might be related to Hutchison Whampoa, they didn't know the whole thing.

at the same time.

Federal Building.

Floor 29.

The conference room of the Imperial Group headquarters.

It's also brightly lit now.

In addition to chairman Yang Ming, female secretary Lin Xiuzhi, and financial director Tang Shilian, all the company's more than 200 employees are here.

Now reporters from major media and newspapers in Hong Kong are gathered here.

Imperial Group also has important media news released to the outside world.

When the time is almost up.

Yang Ming, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said: "Welcome journalists from Xiangjiang to attend this press conference. Now I have important news to officially announce to the outside world."

Those reporters started taking photos of Yang Ming and others with their "long guns and short cannons".

"Last week, our Empire Group just acquired Wharf. This morning, we have reached an agreement with Huifeng Bank to acquire shares of Hutchison International. At 18:30 in the evening, Empire Group officially signed an acquisition agreement with Huifeng Bank. Contract. In other words, six hours ago, Hutchison Whampoa was acquired by Empire Group, and we, Empire Group, are also the largest shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa."

When Yang Ming officially announced the news, the reporters present were stunned.

To say that Yang Ming originally acquired Wharf has shocked many reporters.

This time, Yang Minghe Empire Group acquired Hutchison Whampoa, the second largest foreign bank in Hong Kong, which was even more shocking news to them.

"Hello, Mr. Yang, I am a reporter from Oriental Daily. I would like to interview you on a few questions."

. . .

When Yang Ming finished announcing the matter, he handed over the press conference to Tang Shilian.

It's time for him to go back and rest.

Tonight may be another sleepless night for many people!

When Yang Ming got into the Rolls-Royce under the protection of Chen Zhenhua and others, he quietly left the Federal Building and took a car back to the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.

At the Huifeng Bank Building, Shen Bi also personally announced the sale of all 90 million ordinary shares of Hutchison International to the Imperial Group. What surprised the reporters most was that Huifeng Bank actually sold the shares at half the price. Gave it to Imperial Group.

In other words, the equivalent of one dollar was sold to the Imperial Group for fifty cents.

This made those reporters very interested. Why did Shen Bi and Huifeng Bank make such a decision?

However, Shen Bi did not answer directly.

Hutchison International's management, including Wei Li and others, had already learned the news from Yang Ming in advance in the morning and were mentally prepared.

In the evening, Wei Li learned that the Imperial Group had only swallowed up 90 million Hutchison International shares from Huifeng Bank for HK$630 million. In addition to envying Yang Ming, his original ambition for Hutchison Whampoa also disappeared.

Yang Ming had already talked with him and gave him time to think about it.

If Weili and his management team are not willing to stay at Hutchison Whampoa, he can leave at any time.

If he is willing to stay, his and his management team's positions will remain unchanged, but their nature will be different.

Before, he was just a professional manager hired back by Huifeng Bank.

Now Yang Ming is his new boss.

Especially Li Caixin, Wei Li's deputy and the executive vice president of Hutchison Whampoa. He did not expect that overnight, Hutchison Whampoa would fall into the hands of the Imperial Group.

Shen Bi personally called Wei Li to inform him of the incident.

Wei Li held a management meeting in the conference room of Hutchison Building.

Li Caixin, Xia Boyin and others were all shocked when they heard the news.

That is, Shen Bi from Huifeng Bank and Yang Ming from Imperial Group have been secretly discussing Hutchison International shares, but they never knew it. They only found out when the transaction between the two parties was completed.

"Everyone, I have met with Mr. Yang from Imperial Group in the morning. He also knows that our management is interested in Hutchison Whampoa. Mr. Yang made it very clear to me that Huifeng Bank does not care about Hutchison Whampoa's No one can sell the shares to our management, because we are just employees who have been invited back. However, Mr. Yang also said that even if Mr. Yang acquires Hutchison Whampoa, he will not interfere with Hutchison Whampoa's rectification and reform. If you are not willing to stay at Hutchison Whampoa, you can voluntarily resign."

Li Caixin, Xia Boyin, and Peter Wei turned out to be the troika of Hutchison Whampoa's management.

These three people are the executive vice president, business director, and political affairs director.

Historically, after Wei Li was forced out by Li Jiacheng, Li Caixin first took over Wei Li's position to appease Hutchison Whampoa's white management.

Hutchison Whampoa is the second largest foreign bank in Hong Kong. From top to bottom, it is basically dominated by white people.

At this point, Li Jiacheng was also very worried that Hutchison Whampoa would be ignored by these white people after the acquisition. He first drove Wei Li away, and then gradually sent his confidants Li Yeguang, Mai Lisi and other confidants to enter Hutchison Whampoa. When he gradually After taking control of Hutchison Whampoa and becoming the majority shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa, Li Caixin and others were driven away by Li Jiacheng, and Hutchison Whampoa finally became Li Jiacheng's main company.

Yang Ming is different now.

He knows that white managers like Wei Li and Li Caixin have ambitions, but he will not exclude them.

If they were willing to obey his new boss, they could stay in their jobs.

If they don't want to, then they can just get out.

With the shares he currently holds, Yang Ming is much stronger than Li Jiacheng!

"President, we listen to you."

The following executives all looked at Wei Li.

Wei Li said: "I have talked with Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang is a good person and does not seem to be a strong person. I am willing to stay and manage Hutchison Whampoa as a professional manager."

Since Wei Lidu said that, Li Caixin and others would naturally not object.

In other words, these white managers at Hutchison Whampoa have temporarily stabilized.

When Yang Ming returned to the mid-level villa in Repulse Bay.

It's already past one o'clock in the morning.

There has been no news from Yang Jirong and his wife. In addition to waiting for the shocking news, they are also waiting for their son to come back.

Now when I saw my son coming back in a Rolls-Royce, the couple and the housekeeper Lin Dezhong came out.

"Daddy, Mommy."

"Peter, why are you so busy now?" Li Yufang asked.

"Daddy, Mommy, at 6:30 in the evening, Mr. Shen and I formally signed a contract to acquire Hutchison Whampoa's shares from Huifeng Bank. From now on, Hutchison Whampoa, the second largest foreign bank in Hong Kong, belongs to the Yang family. .”

This is the news Yang Ming said!

Yang Jirong and Li Yufang were shocked and speechless after hearing this.
