Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Chapter 392 Do you think I'm scared? (2 chapters in 1)

Because Xia Yu, who was in the whirlpool, took the initiative to hold a press conference, which attracted the attention of all the people of Xiangjiang, and even the stock market suddenly fell into a strange calm, which was enough to witness Xia Yu's influence.

Whether it’s an investor or a financial institution, because of their vital interests, they don’t dare to mess around anymore. They want to see the situation clearly before they do it, for fear of being trapped or missing the opportunity, so everyone wants to get first-hand information.

For a time, it can be said that the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their magical powers, and undercurrents surging under the already turbulent Xiangjiang River.

Suddenly, a news spread from Jiuding Securities Company that the press conference would be broadcast live by the TV station, and Li's TV station was designated as the exclusive live broadcast platform.

As soon as the news came out, those who were concerned about the matter immediately turned on the TV, selected the channel of Li's TV station, and waited for the press conference.

Due to too many people paying attention, although it has not yet entered the time of the conference, but in the same time period, the market share of Li's TV station has rushed to the first place in Hong Kong, and its share is still growing rapidly. far-reaching impact.

...

Amid the commotion, a temporary stage was quickly set up at the entrance of Jiuding Securities Company. Although Xia Yu, Wang Qi and others did not come out, the stage was already crowded with people, including media reporters and many people eating melons.

In addition, there are also reporters from all over Hong Kong Island on the road, heading towards Jiuding Securities Company.

In front of the press conference stage, an open space was set aside, and the open space was surrounded by a cordon. The security personnel of Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd. were waiting around the cordon, blocking everyone from the outside. The only entrance left was inspectors. , as long as you bring a press card and other things to prove your identity, you can enter.

Just as everyone was anxiously waiting, a sharp-eyed reporter exclaimed, "Come here, the gods have come out."

With his exclamation, everyone followed his line of sight, and sure enough, they saw Xia Yu taking Wang Qi and others out of the company.

For a while, the crowd was a little turbulent, and many people subconsciously wanted to squeeze forward, but they were stopped by the security guards who were always vigilant, accompanied by warnings from the security guards from time to time.

"Everyone keep quiet! When to quiet down, when to start the press conference."

Wang Qi took the lead on stage, holding the microphone and said loudly.

As soon as this word comes out,

The commotion stopped, and everyone looked at him in unison, daring not to make any noise.

Wang Qi nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Xia Yu, the boss who had already taken the stage.

I saw Xia Yu nodded slightly, and then took Wang Qi and a group of high-level executives to their seats.

"I'm very glad that everyone came to show their faces, and I would like to express my heartfelt thanks here!"

Xia Yu took the microphone and said with a smile.

"Clap clap clap..."

Whether active or passive, the audience immediately burst into warm applause.

After all, it was the boss who held the press conference in person, and these ghost reporters would certainly give this face to them.

And for so long, everyone knows that Xia Yu rarely appears in front of the public on his own initiative. In the past press conferences, Xia Yu basically did not attend, and the general managers of various companies came forward.

Now that he is taking the initiative to come forward for the first time, I don’t know how many reporters are in high spirits. After all, Xia Yu is not only a financial tycoon, but also a media tycoon in the earliest days. It is the existence that these reporters need to admire. If Xia Yu announces that reporters will be recruited on the spot, there will definitely be more than three Two-thirds of journalists are willing to change jobs.

"No more gossip, let's get straight to the point!"

"Now, I have an announcement to the public!"

Xia Yu's words were concise and concise, and his expression became solemn.

Below, all the reporters came in secretly, watching Xia Yu attentively, and the camera in their hands was turned on the whole time, for fear of missing an ounce.

"I announce!"

"Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd., in conjunction with Galaxy Fund, holds a total of 62.2% of the shares of Hong Kong Wharf Company..."

"Wow... my God..."

"I lost, something big happened!"

...

Before Xia Yu's words were finished, there was a sudden uproar on the field. They were all stunned by the news of Xia Yu, and flashes of lights came one after another.

Although there was a lot of noise off the field, Xia Yu was unmoved and still finished his words. Fortunately, the news announced was not long, and there was a sound blessing, which suppressed the noisy voice.

...

In the Jardine Kangle Building, when he learned that Li's TV station could broadcast live, Old John turned on the TV and waited quietly.

It's just that although his face was calm, the brothers Henry and Charles, who were sitting beside him, could still feel the unease and apprehension in their father's heart.

Not to mention their father, the two of them were also in a heavy heart at this time, and worry and anxiety flashed in their eyes.

Soon, the scene of the press conference appeared on the TV.

"Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd., in conjunction with Galaxy Fund, holds a total of 62.2% of the shares of Hong Kong Wharf Company..."

What Xia Yu said came out clearly through the speakers of the TV.

It's just that after hearing the news, whether it was Old John or Niu Bijian, or the two Henry brothers, they all stood up with a loud voice.

Charles, who had the most unstable state of mind, blurted out in panic, "How is that possible!"

His round eyes, and the unbelievably dull expression on his face, showed that he was completely shocked.

"Wharf!"

Old John only felt that his eyes were full of stars, and when he muttered, an extremely depressed feeling came to his heart, as if the sky had fallen.

The consequence of the rush of anger and the surge of blood is that people are prone to fainting. For example, Old John is in this state now.

Seeing Old John's body swaying, he fell back, so frightened that Henry and the others immediately reached out to help him, and shouted anxiously, "Father, father..."

"Call an ambulance!"

Just when Charles and the others jumped in a hurry, after about ten seconds, Old John came back to his senses and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine, I don't need to go to the hospital."

"Father, would you like to take a look..."

Henry said with a worried look on his face.

"I said it's fine, now there are more important things!"

Old John categorically refused, and looked at the TV subconsciously.

"Stock God! Stock God! Stock God!..."

At this time, it seemed that I was shocked. I don't know who shouted a god, and then everyone shouted in unison. The whole press conference was full of neat and loud cheers. Even if it was just through the TV, Old John and others could Feel the thrilling vibe.

However, for them, this atmosphere is like a knife, constantly stabbing their wounds back and forth.

"Father……"

Seeing Old John clenching his fists, clenching his teeth, the blue veins on the old face, and staring at Xia Yu's smiling face on the TV screen, Henry was also furious, but he was more concerned about it. It was my father who couldn't take it anymore, so he called softly with a worried look on his face.

Not only Henry, but also Niu Bijian and Charles looked at him worriedly, for fear that he could not stand the stimulation and would actually faint.

"Hush...huh..."

Old John closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then let it out, and opened his originally cloudy eyes again.

I saw that at this moment, there was still a trace of turbidity in his eyes, and the fierce light and evil aura were constantly flashing.

"Father, what should I do now?"

Charles Keswick asked anxiously.

Old John raised his hand and made a pause, and said slowly: "It's too late, let's read it first!"

As he said that, he stared at the reporter's interview with Xia Yu on the TV screen, and wanted to know more about the situation so that he could deal with it more easily.

It's just that no matter what Xia Yu answered, Old John's face was expressionless, his eyes fixed on him, as still as a stone.

After a long time, Old John turned off the TV, looked at the people who were watching him closely, and finally put his eyes on Niu Bijian and asked, "How many shares do we own in Wharf?"

Niu Bijian was still impressed because he had collected information. He replied without hesitation: "We control 18.9%, of which Jardine Holdings directly holds 5%, and Landmark Group indirectly holds 13.9%."

As soon as these words came out, two words immediately appeared in Henry Keswick and Charles Keswick's mind: "It's over!"

Even old John closed his eyes in despair.

It is indeed over. Like this shareholding situation, Wharf has been saved, and there is no need to save it.

Jardine Holdings is absolutely owned by the Keswick family, but not the Landmark Group.

Hongkong Land Group is also a listed company and the largest real estate company in the whole of Hong Kong. It was founded by Sir Paul Chater and James Johnston Keswick in 1889, and it has been 89 years since then.

After so many years, the shareholding ratio of the Keswick family has dropped to a very low level. Although the Keswick family is the largest shareholder, the shareholding ratio is just over 20%, and the board of directors is not owned by the Keswick family. One word hall.

The Landmark Group holds 13.5% of Wharf’s shares, and the difficulty for the Keswick family to operate is more than doubled.

Even if it is distributed proportionally, the share of Wharf shares in the Landmark Group, which belongs to the Keswick family, is only about 4%.

And it is very important, that is, it seems that although Wharf is a constituent enterprise of the Jardine Consortium, its status can be said to be in the core position, but it does not match the shareholding ratio of the core position. Now it has been taken away, Kai The direct loss of the Serke family does not seem to be much, but it will have a great impact on the Jardine Consortium.

The Jardine Consortium is now controlled by the Keswick family, and the influence on the Jardine Consortium will eventually be transferred to the Keswick family, affecting other aspects.

The relationship here is indeed more complicated. The enterprises within the consortium are intertwined, and the various relationships cannot be explained in a single sentence.

In short, this time, the Wharf was seized, which was a huge blow to the Jardine Consortium and even the Keswick family!

It was a hard plan, but the momentum condensed by the humiliation to win the Jardine Machine Group was directly shattered, and the blow was even more serious.

"Chairman, this is the end of the matter, there is no way to get Wharf back, we can only recover as much loss as possible, I suggest that we hold the Wharf stock firmly, even if we can't sell it later, Sell ​​it at a high price!"

Niubi Jian commented.

"But now they own more than 60% of the shares, which is only a few percentage points away from 66.7%. If they hold more than two-thirds of the shares, we will not be able to prevent them from privatizing if we hold the shares and do not sell them. risky!"

Henry Keswick pointed out the loophole in Niu Bijian's opinion with an ugly face.

As soon as these words came out, Niu Bijian's face sank. He also thought of this. The other party's shareholding ratio is too high. It is not difficult to increase the stock by a few percentage points. If it holds more than two-thirds of the shares, then the Jardine Consortium will Jiuding Securities Company will be allowed to knead without any resistance.

"Hold it first, even if it is privatized in the end, it will make them pay a higher price!"

Old John snorted angrily, obviously extremely annoyed in his heart. This feeling of being bullied and powerless to resist made him feel very aggrieved.

The only way now is to let the stock price of Wharf go up. In the end, they cash out at a high price and leave, causing Jiuding Securities to bleed.

"Then father, there is nothing we can do about Wharf, but now the situation of other companies will definitely be worse, what should we do? We don't have enough funds!"

Charles Keswick asked anxiously.

Hearing this, the hearts of everyone present sank, and these words touched the pain of everyone.

In order to acquire the stock of Jardine Machinery Group, even though 30% of the stock of Jardine Insurance Consultants Group was used to replace 150 million, more than 1.3 billion in cash was still paid in the end.

Although this money is spent, on the one hand, it is to complete the absolute holding of Jardine Machinery Group, but more importantly, it is to complete the changes and influences brought about by the holding.

The purpose is to break the alliance of the Chinese capital, attack the morale of the Chinese capital, enhance the power of the Jardine Consortium, keep the enemy in awe, and buy precious time for the Jardine Consortium.

At the very beginning of the declaration of victory, the effect did come out perfectly.

But it didn't take long for it to be shattered by the news of the Wharf acquisition announced by Xia Yu.

It can be said that the more than one billion capital of the Keswick family was wasted!

Without the influence on the general trend, the equity bought at such a high level would be meaningless!

On the contrary, the Chinese capital's attack will be more ferocious, and the current funds are simply not enough!

The enemy's attack can be expected to be very rapid, but the ammunition that I thought was enough was completely insufficient due to the severe situation.

This problem is tricky!

"Stop first, grab me the shares of Wharf, delay their progress as much as possible, and then I'll contact Shi Yahuai, I don't believe he really isn't worried!"

Old John said.

...

The press conference was over soon, and Xia Yu answered five questions, two of which were important to the reporters of Li's TV station.

"Boss, John Keswick's number."

As soon as he returned to the company, he heard Wang Qi, who answered the phone, cover the microphone and said with a slightly heavy face.

Xia Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect to receive a call from Old John just after the press conference.

With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Xia Yu answered the phone.

"Hey!"

"Xia Yu, if you don't keep your word, we really don't dare to do anything to you..."

As soon as he finished saying a sentence, he heard Old John shouting his name, mercilessly accusing and questioning, and it was Xia Yu's promise last night that he would not take the initiative to attack the companies under the Jardine Consortium. .

Xia Yu understood that even though there was another purpose for Old John's phone call, the most important thing was to come to him to vent his anger, because as long as Old John wasn't stupid, he would definitely know that the Wharf was taken away as a foregone conclusion.

It's just that Xia Yu wasn't stubborn either. Old John's questioning made Xia Yu's face cold. He had never been questioned and scolded like this before.

The clay figurine also has three points of qi, not to mention him in a high position?

Now that his face has been torn, there is no need to hide it. Xia Yu countered without hesitation: "John Keswick, do you think I'm scared?"
