I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

It was already early May when I returned to Hong Kong Island, and it was early summer.

The first thing Wu Guangyao did when he returned to Hong Kong was to attend the shareholders meeting of Hang Seng Bank.

The listing of Hang Seng Bank is imminent. As the major shareholder, Everbright Financial Department must take action.

He Shanheng presided over the meeting and took the lead in saying: "The initial listing plan has come out. Hang Seng Bank has issued a total of 10 million shares, with a paid-in share capital of 100 million Hong Kong dollars."

10 yuan is the asset value per share, not the issue price of course!

Wu Guangyao asked: "What is the price of the public offering?"

He Shanheng said: "100 Hong Kong dollars per share!"

Wu Guangyao made eye contact with Lei Hong and Liu Yu, and the price of the public offering determines the cost of increasing the holdings of the Everbright Financial Department;

And if Hang Seng Bank issues at 100 Hong Kong dollars per share, it is equivalent to a market value of 1 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is very reasonable!

Soon, Wu Guangyao had an idea!

The price of 100 Hong Kong dollars per share seems high, but Wu Guangyao knows that the highest price of Hang Seng Bank's stock this year can reach 195 Hong Kong dollars per share;

Before the stock market crash next year, the price will be as high as 290 Hong Kong dollars per share.

Wu Guangyao said: "Is there any other institution that wants to buy shares of Hang Seng Bank?"

He Shanheng handed over this issue to Li Guowei. Although He Shanheng was still the chairman of the board of directors at this time, he had already begun to hand over most of the power to Li Guowei and He Tian, ​​and he was concentrating on compiling financial books.

Li Guowei said: "Considering that the Everbright Financial Department may increase its holdings, it has not agreed to any institution yet!"

Wu Guangyao nodded. The management staff of Hang Seng Bank are very good, and they are not in vain of their policy of non-excessive interference these years.

In the end, the two parties reached an internal deal;

Everbright Bank paid He Shanheng and other founders 150 million Hong Kong dollars to increase its shareholding to 51% (it is not the initiator of the acquisition, and does not need to consider touching the full acquisition line);

Hang Seng Bank issued 1 million shares to the public at a price of 100 Hong Kong dollars per share, raising 100 million Hong Kong dollars for company development.

Wu Guangyao intends to slowly increase the shareholding of Hang Seng Bank to 62%, which is the same as that of HSBC in his previous life, so as to increase his control;

The reason why we only increase the shareholding to 51% is also a strategy;

When the share price of Hang Seng Bank climbed to 250 Hong Kong dollars, Wu Guangyao would also ask China Everbright Bank to sell about 10% of its holdings;

After the stock market crash comes, slowly increase the holdings to 62%;

Over and over again, Wu Guangyao was able to increase his shareholding from 35% to 62% without spending a penny;

This is the charm of finance!

At this time, Hong Kong Island is very lively, real estate is booming, and the stock market is even more prosperous;

Chinese capitals have listed their companies one after another, issuing more new shares every month than usual in a year.

Before 1972, there were 98 listed companies on Hong Kong Island;

But Wu Guangyao knew that the number of Hong Kong Island companies listed this year (1972) would exceed the sum of the previous listed companies, as high as 100.

A hotel worth 20 million Hong Kong dollars can choose to go public at this time, which shows that the stock market is hot;

And the five tigers of Huazi Real Estate, which were famous in the previous life, listed the company this year.

 …

After the meeting was over, He Shanheng probably worried that Wu Guangyao would abandon Li Guowei in the future, so he invited everyone to a banquet;

During the dinner, He Shanheng looked at Li Guowei many times to let him integrate into the Everbright Finance Department and give himself a way out!

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "Brother Shanheng filtered it. As a banking professional, Manager Li, we can rest assured that Hang Seng Bank will flourish in his hands; or that sentence, the founding team of Hang Seng Bank is an excellent team. The banking team, our Everbright Financial Department will not interfere too much for the time being. Of course, I hope that everyone can communicate regularly in the future, after all, we are brother banks and should support each other."

It is not Wu Guangyao's style to dismantle the company after the acquisition;

Of course, the premise is that the original management team is obedient,

and obey management.

Li Guowei was a little moved when he heard this. After all, when he was in trouble at Hang Seng Bank, he advocated that HSBC should take over instead of China Everbright Bank. Therefore, his sense of belonging to the Everbright Financial Department has not been strong all along.

But now, Li Guowei knows that if he is not sensible anymore, then the Everbright Financial Department, which owns an absolute shareholding, may not be polite!

Li Guowei suggested: "Hang Seng Bank's junior banker training course has developed well in the past few years, or the two of us merged this training course, and this training course will train junior banking talents for both of us in the future."

Lei Hong's eyes lit up, and he said quickly, "This is a good thing!"

Wu Guangyao smiled without saying a word. The two banks finally began to merge slowly, which he was happy to hear.

 …

Cheung Kong Building

A new day of work begins, and Wu Guangyao walks into his office;

Looking at the neat and clean desk with several newspapers on it, Wu Guangyao nodded secretly.

After sitting down for a minute, Hong Xiaolian walked in.

"boss!"

Wu Guangyao nodded, then picked up the newspaper and read it, while Hong Xiaolian started making tea for Wu Guangyao;

Hong Xiaolian was Li Ka-shing's right-hand man in her previous life. In this life, because she was discovered by Wu Guangyao, Lao Li naturally does not have this helper.

Of course, Wu Guangyao did not take special care of Hong Xiaolian, but only let her work as a clerk in the Cheung Kong Industrial Group office;

But even this kind of arrangement surprised the management of Cheung Kong!

Because Hong Xiaolian only has a high school education, and the group office of Cheung Kong Industrial has a college degree;

Some management even suspected that this is also...

If Wu Guangyao found out, he would have to give this kind of management a kick.

After Hong Xiaolian prepared tea for Wu Guangyao, she was preparing to leave the boss's office quietly so as not to disturb Wu Guangyao who was reading the newspaper.

"Remember to read more books and study more!"

Wu Guangyao's abrupt words made Hong Xiaolian flattered!

"Okay, boss! I will study hard!"

Seeing that Wu Guangyao did not explain further, Hong Xiaolian exited the office excitedly.

What an honor it is to be instructed by the boss!

Wu Guangyao watched the news of "Oriental Daily" seriously, and suddenly a piece of financial news came into view;

It is a company called "Hong Kong Antenna" that is listing shares. The selling point of this company is: the company invented a TV signal receiver (commonly known as an antenna) for home use.

Because the TV penetration rate in Hong Kong has reached about 70% at this time, there is a great 'demand' for this TV signal receiver;

In addition, the company advertised that it was a high-tech product, and suddenly the company's stock was favored one after another, and the citizens of Hong Kong Island rushed to subscribe for the company's stock.

Wu Guangyao couldn't help cursing secretly as a 'liar'. After two lives, Wu Guangyao could tell at a glance that this so-called antenna was just a gimmick.

In my previous life, when I was a child, I put up a wire and put a few cans, so I could receive the signal and see a rough TV image;

This so-called 'high technology' is obviously a joke!

No, I must expose this liar company!

TVB is its own industry, and such people cannot be allowed to make such unconscionable money by themselves;

Moreover, if this matter is manipulated, it can also provide good material for Oriental Media.

Thinking of this, Wu Guangyao called Yang Kang and asked him to come to his office.

.....

"Ah! Boss, what you said is true. Even a wire near the launch pad can receive the signal?" Yang Kang looked incredulous.

Wu Guangyao said angrily, "Don't you know if you find someone to try? I said Yang Kang, you won't believe this liar company too?"

Yang Kang frowned, nodded honestly, and said, "What this company says is absurd, let alone me, there are not many people in Hong Kong who don't believe it!"

Wu Guangyao laughed, this is an international joke!

Since millions of people in Hong Kong have been tricked by a fraudulent company.

Wu Guangyao said: "Go and do this right away, and you must expose this company with the facts! What a messy high-tech 'antenna', it's just an ordinary receiver!"

Yang Kang naturally believed in his boss at this time, so he said: "Well, I will find someone to do the experiment, and then broadcast it live; then use our newspaper office and radio station to broadcast the news!"
