I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

Chapter 551 [Hutchison's takeover battle II]

Qi Dezun came to HSBC Bank and found Shen Bi and Sandas for help;

"Two, you must help me this time!" Qi Dezun said urgently.

Ever since he realized Wu Guangyao's intention to cooperate with Ji Yangxing, Qi Dezun became a frightened bird;

The powerful Jardine Matheson is no match for him, let alone a severely injured Hutchison Matheson.

Shen Bi frowned, feeling very dissatisfied with Qi Dezun;

In the past two years, Hutchison has done some things that harm the interests of HSBC;

For example, the loan was chosen from China Everbright Bank, and what was even more exaggerated was that after taking the loan from China Everbright Bank, most of the loans from HSBC were paid off in advance.

For a bank, loans are the top priority, and Hutchison International has already dissatisfied the senior management of HSBC Bank by doing so;

However, Hutchison also gave a good reason, that is, the loan interest of China Everbright Bank is too low, so low that Hutchison's executives cannot refuse.

In this way, there are some gaps between the two sides!

However, no matter how dissatisfied with Qi Dezun, Hutchison \u0026 Co. is a big British bank after all, and HSBC Bank will not do nothing, at least if there is still hope to save it.

Shen Bi said calmly: "Mr. Qi Dezun, why don't you go to Everbright Bank, they are your staunch supporters!"

Qi Dezun said with a wry smile: "You two, I know that the cooperation with HSBC has indeed been reduced in the past two years, but I really have no choice; an 8% interest rate and a 13% interest rate, if it is you, Which bank should I choose?"

Shen Bi said in disbelief, "What? China Everbright Bank actually gave you 8% loan interest?"

At this time, the loan interest on Hong Kong Island is generally in the range of 12% to 16%, and the loan interest of 8% is extremely rare;

In addition, the opponent is China Everbright Bank, so Shen Bi is a bit unbelievable!

Qi Dezun nodded and said: "It's also my fault that I was confused by the hot stock market and local market in Hong Kong at that time. The first two loans also mortgaged 15% of Hutchison International's shares, and then China Everbright Bank became Hutchison. The biggest creditor in the world; I didn't realize until now that Wu Guangyao already has the heart to take down Hutchison!"

"What?" This time Sandas and Shen Bi exclaimed almost simultaneously.

Qi Dezun is a bit baffled, the two executives of such a powerful HSBC Bank are really abnormal today!

"I'm just guessing that the sudden news of Hutchison International's unfavorable situation in the market made Hutchison International's situation instantly dangerous. In addition, when Everbright Bank took the first and second loans, it offered to use the shares of Hutchison International Pledge, so I guess Wu Guangyao is interested in Hutchison International! You two, Hutchison is not Wharf, and Hutchison is a real British-owned big firm; if Chinese take Hutchison, what is the dignity of our British Empire? "

The words of Qi Dezun made the two HSBC executives shudder in their hearts;

For HSBC, interests are fundamental;

Moreover, since the easing of Sino-US relations, the senior management of HSBC has been making two preparations:

First, establish a good relationship with the Chinese, hoping that HSBC will establish a good relationship with the mainland in the future, and HSBC will continue to be the "central bank" of Hong Kong;

Second, HSBC went out of Hong Kong and became a major international bank.

Therefore, if there is a big problem with the British-owned big foreign bank itself, HSBC will never help it regardless of its interests!

What's more, this matter involved Wu Guangyao, which made the two of HSBC think more;

Both of them recalled the scene at Universal Group yesterday. Wu Guangyao, who was always friendly with HSBC, changed his usual and showed dissatisfaction.

The important thing is that the Universal Group took out HSBC's tricks, but they didn't make it out. What is their intention?

At this moment, Sanders and Shen Bi from HSBC suddenly thought of something;

Could it be to warn HSBC not to interfere with his stay in Hutchison International?

Thinking of this, Shen Bi, who was dissatisfied with Qi Dezun himself, said: "Mr. Qi Dezun, the current situation of Hutchison Co., Ltd. cannot be solved with a few loans, but that Hutchison Co., Ltd. has a huge problem. It is the meaning of all the senior management of HSBC Bank. In other words, HSBC Bank is now lending to Hutchison \u0026 Co., and Hutchison \u0026 Co. is unable to make changes at all, so the risk of this loan is very high!"

Qi Dezun said dissatisfiedly: "Mr. Shen Bi, as long as there are more than 200 companies in Hutchison International, as long as they overcome the immediate difficulties, they will develop rapidly afterwards and provide a lot of profits."

Shen Bi shook his head and said: "The immediate difficulty? The oil crisis will not end within two or three years, so this is not an immediate difficulty at all, but a protracted battle. I advise Mr. Qi Dezun to hold a shareholders' meeting as soon as possible, and we can discuss it together That's the key!"

After hearing this, Qi Dezun had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye!

Sandas said to Shen Bi: "There are two choices in front of us: one is to support Qi Dezun, but this will inevitably offend those who want to take down Hutchison \u0026 Co. His opponents; one is to give up Qi Dezun, we take the initiative to befriend him, and the matter of the Universal Group will be over, and we will still be able to securely obtain a large amount of dividends from the Universal Group in the future."

Shen Bi nodded and said, "It's like two boats. Our compatriots are the boat that sails into the storm, and Huazi is the boat that sails in the calm sea. It's self-evident who to choose! It's just that I have always hoped to support more Chinese-funded enterprises, balancing the power of Hong Kong business."

Sandas naturally knew Shen Bi's thoughts, his successor was really ambitious;

But he did one thing wrong, that is, he can support other Huazi, but he must not annoy Wu Guangyao;

There used to be a saying that the people in charge of Hong Kong are: the Hong Kong government, the Jockey Club, HSBC, and Jardine;

But now it is said that the people in charge of Hong Kong are: the Hong Kong government, the Wu family, the Jockey Club, and HSBC;

The Wu family is even ahead of the Jockey Club and HSBC, and it can be said to keep pace with the Hong Kong government.

 …

Although the Hutchison International stock in the market fell again and again, Wu Guangyao did not buy a single share;

Because Wu Guangyao already owns 16% of Hutchison International's shares and has become a director of Hutchison International;

Once you take action, you will be discovered by others, and you will fall into the lower class;

Now that we have decided to make a friendly acquisition under the condition that the chances of winning are sure, why bother to go after the little bargains;

What's more, Hutchison International's shares have absolutely no hope of rising within a year.

Therefore, Wu Guangyao directly made an appointment with Qi Dezun, intending to have a showdown.

A high-end restaurant on the 50th floor of Cheung Kong Building.

"Mr. Qi Dezun, don't you have a great feeling overlooking Victoria Harbor and Kowloon Peninsula from here!" Wu Guangyao said with a smile.

This high-end restaurant is under the management of Shangri-La Hotel. The good environment and luxurious dishes are the advantages of this high-end restaurant.

Although the scenery outside is good, the dishes on the table are even more expensive, but Qi Dezun is still not in the mood to pay attention to these things;

I just want this guy to show his cards to himself quickly!

"It's really good!" Qi Dezun said absent-mindedly.

Wu Guangyao knew it was time to get to the point, otherwise today's banquet would be boring!

Wu Guangyao said: "Mr. Qi Dezun, if you want to speculate, I will say it generously! Hutchison \u0026 Co. has now entered a dead end. Mr. Qi Dezun, do you plan to spend it like this?"

Qi Dezun immediately retorted: "Mr. Wu is serious. The stock market cannot truly reflect a company's operating conditions. Hutchison is still a group with huge assets."

Wu Guangyao shook his head, and said unceremoniously: "Hutchison has entered a dead end, and it will collapse within a year at the latest. Mr. Qi Dezun, don't deceive yourself."

Qi Dezun said angrily: "Mr. Wu just manage his company well!"

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "I am an important shareholder of Hutchison Co., Mr. Qi Dezun is too disrespectful to our shareholders! Mr. Qi Dezun, you are the major shareholder of Hutchison Co., and Heji Co., Ltd. If the foreign firm goes bankrupt, you will lose the most. Therefore, I hope that we can cooperate with each other!"

Hearing the cooperation, Qi Dezun breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "So, Mr. Wu has no intention of becoming the owner of Heji Foreign Firm?"

What Wu Guangyao said next made Qi Dezun furious again.

"My opinion is that I will buy 20% of Mr. Qi Dezun's shares and become the owner of Hutchison; I can sign a contract with all shareholders to guarantee that Hutchison will turn losses into profits within three years."

Qi Dezun immediately said: "Impossible! Hutchison is my painstaking effort, I will not give up this position! If Mr. Wu is optimistic about Hutchison, I welcome your investment!"

Wu Guangyao persuaded again: "Mr. Qi Dezun, I didn't hit you, you can't bring Hutchison Out of the quagmire at all; if Hutchison continues like this, even if I don't let you step aside, HSBC will not agree If you continue to stay in the position of Taipan of Hutchison Matheson, other shareholders will also oppose you! At that time, you will be in a passive position! If you transfer 20% of the shares to me now, you still have at least 15% of the shares. Be confident that Hutchison will soon return to the top. At that time, the 15% shares in your hand will be worth billions of Hong Kong dollars. I am not talking nonsense. Just think about China Gas and you will know. Just ask Mr. Madden You know, not everyone can give me a free ride if you partner with me in business.”

Qi Dezun shook his head and said: "Mr. Wu, although you are good at business, there are many British executives in Hutchison \u0026 Co., and you may not be able to master them!"

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "More than half of my family office is made up of Americans and Europeans. Their capabilities are far higher than those of Hutchison's management, so the problem you mentioned does not exist."

Qi Dezun is willing to step down from the position of the head of Hutchison Co., Ltd., people who have enjoyed power, how can they easily delegate power.

In the end, Wu Guangyao could only shake his head helplessly, instead of persecuting Qi Dezun.

Because Wu Guangyao has many ways to make Hutchison Co. belong to his subordinates, so he doesn't want to persecute Qi Dezun now.

The most important thing is that Wu Guangyao and Qi Dezun are friends after all, so it's really unnecessary to get too stiff all of a sudden.

Wicked man, let HSBC do it!
