I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

"I want to be a wealthy family on Hong Kong Island ()"!

Before 1958, Hong Kong Island had two local airlines, Cathay Pacific and Island Airways.

The Hong Kong government stipulates that all routes south of Hong Kong Island are operated by Cathay Pacific Airways, and routes north of Hong Kong Island are operated by Hong Kong Island Airlines.

Wu Guangyao's valuation of the three old aircraft of Hong Kong Island Airlines is 2.5 million US dollars, plus the flight license and pilot, etc., the total valuation is 3.5 million US dollars.

Because Hong Kong Island Airlines is on the verge of bankruptcy, the minority shareholders will never want to keep it in their hands;

Of course, this is just Wu Guangyao's guess!

However, in order not to startle the enemy, Wu Guangyao decided to buy them one by one and asked them to sign a non-disclosure agreement.

And in order to increase the success rate, Wu Guangyao planned to spend money to let Sandas act as his personal financial consultant, so as not to be uncooperative.

In Hong Kong Island, the importance of Sandas should be second only to HSBC Taipan. The main reason is that Sandas holds all the loan projects.

Even if you don't want to sell it, you have to keep it secret for a while.

"Wu, why did you decide to do it so early? Global Shipping's finances are not optimistic now, and it owes huge loans; your blind expansion will cause the capital chain to break. Moreover, even after you acquire it, you still have to invest a lot of money to develop it. Hong Kong Island Airlines, so the funding for global shipping will be even tighter?" Sanders' tone was full of incomprehension, even anger.

You may feel that Wu Guangyao has been too smooth in recent years, and now he is a little swollen. As an ally, it is necessary to remind him.

Wu Guangyao did not refute, but took out a stack of paper charter contracts prepared in advance, and placed them in front of Sandas.

Seeing that Wu Guangyao did not answer himself, but took out a pile of paper documents, Sandas naturally looked at them unceremoniously.

After a while, Sandas asked in disbelief: "You actually signed a three-year contract for basically all of your second-hand ships. What do you think?"

"Mr. Sanders, the shipping price may change, I just put an insurance on the global shipping. With these long-term contracts, do you still think that our global shipping will have financial problems?" Wu Guangyao said with a smile, This pile of information is a total of three-year contracts for 32 ships, with a total value of 38 million US dollars.

Although it is not enough to pay off the loan, Wu Guangyao still has 9 second-hand ships and 15 new ships of 30,000 tons.

These are the main money-making machines for global shipping in the future.

"Indeed there is no problem, but do you have any plans for Hong Kong Island Airlines?" Sandas thought for a while and said.

"First buy three Viscount airliners, and open routes to Seoul, Tokyo, and Manila (belonging to the east of Hong Kong); at the same time, I demand the ultimate in company services so that customers can be impeccable..." Wu Guangyao seemed to have found Knowing the bosom friend, he said it without reservation.

"Seoul?"

"Yes, the war should be over soon, and this route has to be reopened."

Sanders didn't expect Wu Guangyao to be so sure that the war is about to end. Although there are some signs of it now, even HSBC is not sure about these major events!

This young man's anticipation of the situation is really hard to find fault with!

Otherwise, it is impossible to go smoothly all the time!

"But in this way, after you acquired Hong Kong Island Airlines, did you include it as a subsidiary of Global Shipping? If you want to get our shares, HSBC must definitely ask for a stake in Global Shipping, but they will not agree to additional investment. Hong Kong Island Airlines, this is a big problem, and it is not something I can decide.” Sanders said that HSBC is optimistic about global shipping, but it will never be optimistic about Hong Kong Island Airlines.

After taking over 35% of the shares from British Airways Overseas Development Company, the financial situation of Hong Kong Island Airlines has been declining day by day, and Sandas has been criticized a lot. Not a good day.

"No, I don't intend to merge into Global Shipping. I plan to set up my sole proprietorship company - Universal Holdings Company to hold Global Shipping and Hong Kong Island Airlines."

Naturally, Wu Guangyao refused to merge Hong Kong Island Airlines into Global Shipping. Doesn't this mean that he is at a disadvantage?

Others are not optimistic about it, but I am very optimistic about it!

After hearing this, Sandas didn't say anything. After all, HSBC sold the shares of Hong Kong Island Airlines directly to Wu Guangyao himself;

If HSBC wants to take a stake in Global Shipping, it will naturally buy shares based on Global Shipping's current fixed assets, and a conservative valuation of 70 million US dollars is required.

The reason why Wu Guangyao wooed HSBC was because he needed a strong backing;

At the same time, the funds invested by HSBC can be used to buy ships;

In this way, I didn't lose anything. To put it bluntly, I was just a steward of their funds.

In this era, there is still a shipping company whose owners are different people, and they are combined to operate in this way!

.........

When Wu Guangyao and Sanders conspired, another super yacht "Christina" came to the port of Jeddah in Mecca;

It is the most luxurious private yacht in the world, and its owner Onassis and his wife Tina are sitting on board.

Onassis was much more famous than Wu Guangyao, so he went directly to the palace, met the old king, and explained his purpose.

"Mr. Onassis, just last month, a big Asian ship owner came to persuade me. He said exactly the same thing as you. Could it be that you have an appointment?" the old king asked suspiciously.

Onassis was startled, someone actually got ahead of him?

"King, may I ask which shipping company in Japan is this big ship owner?" Onassis asked after calming down.

"He is not the owner of Dongpu, but a big ship owner on Hong Kong Island."

"Ha...ha, king, you may have been deceived by him. There are no big ship owners on Hong Kong Island, they are all small soldiers and small shrimps." Onassis laughed presumptuously in front of the king twice, and uttered wild words, This is due to his personality, otherwise his company would be in the United States, and he would look for opportunities to cut the face of Americans everywhere.

The crown prince on the side was naturally uncomfortable when he heard this. With Wu Guangyao's deliberate friendship, his relationship with Wu Guangyao has risen to that of a friend. Naturally, he doesn't want a stranger to slander his friend.

The crown prince interjected: "Mr. Onassis, as far as I know, the total load capacity of your fleet is only about 1.5 million tons, and the fleet of the owner of Hong Kong Island is also 1.2 million tons. You said he is a small soldier. Shrimp, don't you..."

Onassis was taken aback again, he didn't expect the crown prince to defend the owner of the Hong Kong Island ship in such a way, which was not good for him;

At this time, Onassis finally remembered that there is indeed a powerful ship owner Wu on Hong Kong Island, but he doesn't like his second-hand boats, so he always chooses to forget him.

"As far as I know, his boats are all old second-hand boats?"

"He has 15 new ships of 30,000 tons, which have been built in the American shipyard for 20 months. Can Mr. Onassis care about the international shipping situation?" His temper, especially the gift of two falcons, made the crown prince show off in front of the royal family.

Seeing the eldest son defending Wu Guangyao, the old king was a little worried, worried that the eldest son would be deceived by interests, but he didn't say it out on the spot.

Onassis was shocked again, it seemed that he underestimated the enemy;

Not to mention how many ships this Hong Kong Island has, but to say that he is one step ahead and has established a good relationship with the crown prince, which has already taken the lead.

Onassis saw that the crown prince was attacked, and now he had to increase his strength to persuade the old king.

It's a pity, with the prudence of the old king, how could he agree to Onassis to touch the brows of several major oil companies in the United States!

In the end, Onassis left the palace, but did not give up on the matter;

Because there is still hope in this matter, the old king hesitated, and the crown prince was very tempted.

It seems that I have to find some lobbyists to persuade the old king, so there may be hope, Onassis thought.

Who are you looking for?

Onassis was lost in thought, and soon Onassis had an idea;

Since it is the idea of ​​attacking the big American oil company, then we must find a big man who does not like the United States;

Onassis already has two options:

The first one, Hjalmar Schacht, the former president of the Reichsbank, although he was the president of the Reichsbank during the German Fuehrer period, but because he disagreed with the Fuhrer, he did not hold any post during World War II; so he was acquitted after the war, He worked as an economic adviser to Egypt, the hegemon of the Arab world, and is currently investing in the financial industry in Germany.

The second place is the leader of the Saudi anti-US movement, the nationalist Chamal Hussein.

Then visit Chamal Hussein first!

.........

In addition to Jardine Matheson holding 40% of the shares and HSBC Bank holding 35%, Hong Kong Island Airlines also has 9 minority shareholders holding 25% of the shares.

The most surprising thing is that the Ho Tung family also holds a 3% stake in Hong Kong Island Airlines.

Therefore, Wu Guangyao first visited the 91-year-old Ho Tung.

Don't look at Ho Tung who is already 91 years old, others still go to London in a wheelchair to accept the royal title at the age of 93!

Wu Guangyao and He Dong have a good relationship, and they always visit this Hong Kong Island Chinese 'leader' every year;

He Dong also admires Wu Guangyao very much. He has said many times on different occasions that the Wu Guangyao family is the next "leader" of the Chinese in Hong Kong Island.

It can be seen that this person admires Wu Guangyao very much and is very willing to support him.

Although the so-called "leader" of the Chinese on Hong Kong Island is not an official name, the influence in it is undoubtedly huge.

For example, if the Hong Kong government wants to move such a Chinese "leader" on Hong Kong Island, it must definitely think about it, otherwise it will cause riots on Hong Kong Island.

"You grow up too fast, which is a good thing and a bad thing. We don't need to talk about the good things, but you should understand the bad things. You don't have enough contacts and influence in the world, which makes people jealous of you. So ah , You need to get in touch with politicians from various countries more, and you can’t even concentrate your investment on Hong Kong Island, and you have to leave yourself a way out.” After agreeing to Wu Guangyao’s request for a share transfer, He Dong suddenly mentioned a few words.

Wu Guangyao naturally knew about this, but after all, he had developed too fast and had no time to get in touch with those big shots.

"Sir He is right, I will work hard in this regard!" Wu Guangyao hurriedly said modestly, it was his honor to be able to get advice from such an experienced businessman.

After taking the shares held by He Dong, Wu Guangyao will next meet a person who owns 5% of the shares.

 …

peninsula hotel

Wu Guangyao and Sandas are hosting a banquet, waiting for a person in charge of a British foreign company that holds 5% of Hong Kong Island Airlines. As long as he wins the shares in this hand, Wu Guangyao will hold 8% of Hong Kong Island Airlines .

Not long after the two sat down, a thin fifty-year-old British man came to meet him.

"Sang Dashi, this should be Mr. Wu!" The visitor was very smart, although he had never met Wu Guangyao, he seemed to be able to guess Wu Guangyao's identity at once.

"Hello, Mr. Benjamin, this is Wu Guangyao!"

After the three of them sat down, the restaurant began to serve food. Benjamin was not in a hurry to know why Wu Guangyao and Wu Guangyao asked him to come, but instead they chatted about shipping.

It turned out that Benjamin's foreign firm also had 5 cargo ships, which mainly traveled from Hong Kong Island to Southeast Asia to transport some resources.

Hong Kong Island is an important entrepot port. Most of the trade in Japan and Taiwan will be re-exported on Hong Kong Island.

"Mr. Wu, how do you think Hong Kong Island's economy will develop after the war in the east?" Although Benjamin is British, he can see that he admires Wu Guangyao.

At a young age, he can achieve the level of Asia's "shipping king" in shipping, and the level of world dominance in zipper, no matter what race he is, it is worthy of admiration.

"If the war is over, the first thing Hong Kong Island will do is to lobby the United States to lift the trade blockade; if this step is completed, Hong Kong Island's entrepot trade will slowly pick up; however, compared to the entrepot trade , I think the manufacturing industry will be more vigorous, and even within ten years, it will surpass the re-export trade." Wu Guangyao said casually, saying these will not affect anything.

"What about the real estate industry?" Benjamin asked impatiently.

It seems that this foreign firm also occupies a large proportion of real estate.

"As long as people have a job and can eat enough, they will naturally consider the issue of 'housing'. I believe that the future of the real estate industry is also beautiful!"

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Wu Guangyao finally said what he wanted to do. When Benjamin heard this, a look of joy flashed across his face, but Wu Guangyao still found out.

It seems that these small shareholders have long wanted to make a move. I am afraid that they are not optimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island Airlines!

"Mr. Wu, your valuation is too low. I think Hong Kong Island Airlines is worth at least 4 million U.S. dollars. Three planes plus a flight license are worth 3.5 million U.S. dollars. Hong Kong Island Airlines also has properties, pilots, etc. If you If you really want 5% of the shares in my hand, then it will be 200,000 US dollars." Benjamin said after bargaining.

200,000 US dollars, Wu Guangyao is acceptable, but Benjamin can't let it be seen that he really wants this share;

Wu Guangyao didn't want these people to know clearly about Wu Guangyao's intention to acquire Hong Kong Island Airlines;

Perhaps these people would guess that Wu Guangyao just wanted to be a minority shareholder.

Wu Guangyao looked at Sandas, and Sandas understood in seconds.

"Mr. Benjamin, you should be aware of the situation of Hong Kong Island Airlines, which is on the verge of bankruptcy at any time; to tell you the truth, this time we, HSBC, intend to take the lead in carrying out some reforms on Hong Kong Island Airlines, and please Mr. Benjamin look at it for the sake of HSBC. , the price should not be too high," Sandas said.

Wu Guangyao hired Sanders as his consultant this time, but he had to pay labor fees, so Sanders naturally took it seriously.

To put it bluntly, Sandas is his temporary personal financial advisor.

Seeing that Benjamin was still pretending to hesitate, Wu Guangyao said, "180,000 US dollars, Mr. Benjamin, this price is already a premium purchase, please consider it carefully."

"Deal!" Benjamin didn't want to offend Sandas in the end. Besides, the price had exceeded his estimated price. Benjamin once thought that Hong Kong Island Airlines would go bankrupt sooner or later.

Sandas then told Benjamin that this matter must be kept secret!

Benjamin nodded, thinking to himself, is HSBC going to fight for the dominance of Hong Kong Island Airlines from Jardine this time?
