Chapter 488 From friend to opponent (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  Before Chu Huan, Xiangjiang had two big men.

  Huo Tsar, who is famous in Xiangjiang, is the charter king representing Xiangjiang Chinese merchants in other cities!

   These two people almost represent Xiangjiang's business community.

   As for the charter king, if he wants to win him over, the difficulty is actually not much different from the difficulty of finding Chu Huan to cooperate, because since the charter king wants to land, he must also want to have the right to speak.

   This also conflicts with the thinking of the Swire Swire family.

   But no matter what, it is always much less difficult than going to Chu Huan to cooperate. In the end, Shiyock decided to give it a try, in case it succeeds!

  The whole of Xiangjiang, because of the sale of Wheelock, is surging.

   At this time, Xiangjiang's media also started various analysis, and finally came to the conclusion that Jardine, Swire, and Hehe International were the most likely to get Wheelock.

   As for HSBC, in the eyes of the media, they haven't done anything yet!

   But it is only a rumor from the outside world.

   In terms of time, HSBC has already made a move.

  Wheelock Headquarters.

  John Madden and his son Madden Jr. are discussing the idea of ​​selling Wheelock.

   "What's the matter with this Lijiacheng? He even proposed to us the idea of ​​acquiring Wheelock. Does he have the strength?"

  John Madden preached something incomprehensible. He was no stranger to Li Jiacheng. At the beginning, it was Li Jiacheng who drove them to Xiangjiang's four major foreign companies, and HSBC and Chu Huan competed for Qingzhou's Yingni, and they lost in embarrassment.

  At that time, Wu Shuhan was almost crushed by Seven Small Foreign Firms, but he didn't think that a year would pass, and Wu Shuhan actually wanted to acquire Huihua merchants?

Da Shenbi pondered and said: "Wu Shuhan must be the one who wants to buy Huitong Hao, and it should be HSBC behind Wu Shuhan. If there is no support from HSBC, is Changshi able to win with so few competitors?" Will be a Chinese businessman!"

  John Shen Bi nodded and said, "Is HSBC Tong Haogui's father? They support him so much!"

Da Shenbi analyzed: "Defeng is very proud of this person. I have contacted this person later. He is actually very optimistic about Ahuan's future development in Xiangjiang. , so it must be for the sake of HSBC to end the suppression of Shaya.

   It’s just that Tong Hao’s development in the past is obviously beyond his imagination. In Xiangjiang’s current situation where A Huan is still in the limelight, he can only seek cooperation with us.

  But I think that Defeng's idea of ​​fostering the seventh Guo Bingxiang among A Huan should have never stopped, and this Tong Haogui should be the candidate he picked! "

  John Shen Bi chuckled and said, "I also know whether this kind of thing is a good thing or a bad thing for Wu Shuhan!"

Da Shenbi said: "If there is no Shaya, it will be a good thing. If there is no Shaya, there will be no Roy Bentley, and Defeng will become a small class of HSBC next year. Without HSBC's support at the time, Wu Shuhan could do it even if he wanted to make a fortune.

As a result, such a monster as Tong Hao appeared in Xiangjiang. Wu Shuhan can only watch this time if he can get up. If he becomes him, he will complete the snake swallowing the whale and take us to the Chinese merchants. If he loses, the Tong Hao in front of him is probably completely I lost the chance to compete for the next HSBC small class! "

   "But what does that matter to us?" John Shen Bi said with concern. Ever since he decided to sell the Chinese businessman, John Shen Bi was full of things and seemed very nervous.

Da Tong Hao also smiled and said: "It is indeed our business, so now we just need to sit here quietly and wait for these people to quote their quotations one by one. Whoever has the lowest price, we will Just sell it to whoever!"

  John Shen Bi nodded with a smile and said: "There is a mistake, no matter what their situation is, if Sha Ya's price is low, I am willing to sell the Chinese businessman to him!"

Da Shenbi said without any regrets: "It's a pity that the Hong Kong government will allow it. Sha Ya's development is too slow. If we get the Chinese businessman again, Sha Ya will really be the first person in Hong Kong." At that time, I am afraid that even the Hong Kong government will be on him, so the Hong Kong government would rather us sell to other A Huan, and they will allow us to sell to Sha Ya!"

John Shen Bi nodded and said: "How could I know? In fact, just now I received a call from some people in the Hong Kong government. It was clearly stated on the phone that if we are doing business with Sha Ya, the Securities Regulatory Commission will will intervene!"

   Speaking of this, John Shen Bi cursed fiercely, "What, a bunch of idiots who only know politics!"

  Da Shen Bi asked: "Then what if we want to get Sha Ya's inquiry first?"

   "Why do you agree?" John Shen Bi suddenly laughed and said, "Without Sha Ya, the richest man in Xiangjiang, can we lower the price too!"

  Da Tonghao nodded and said, "Understood!"

   Then the big Shen Bi asked again: "By the way, Daddy, Guo Bingxiang called later and asked about the situation of the Chinese merchants in our sales meeting. If you want to call him back?"

The reason why Guo Bingxiang was specifically mentioned among the few purchasers is that Guo Bingxiang is the world's shipping king and once the richest man in Xiangjiang. The main reason is that Guo Bingxiang has a very close relationship with John Shen Bi's father, George Shen Bi. wrong.

When Guo Bingxiang first entered the shipping industry, the Huihua Merchant at the helm of George Shen Bi was already a leader in the Xiangjiang shipping industry. George Tong Hao humiliated.

  But the two sides met each other through a fight, and they became good friends when they came here.

  The two became friends and exchanged gifts. Guo Bingxiang gave George Shen Bi a scroll to celebrate George Shen Bi's 60th birthday, but this scroll was sold by John Shen Bi in the future.

   This also led to Guo Bingxiang's intervention in the war for the acquisition of Chinese businessmen in the 1940s in another time and space.

   But that’s all foreword. The relationship between Guo Bingxiang and Hui Tonghao’s Shen Bi family is still very wrong.

  So now Da Shen Bi deliberately told John Shen Bi about Guo Bingxiang's phone call.

  Before John Tong Hao finished listening, he shook his head directly and said, "I'd better not see Guo Bingxiang alone at this time, but you have to announce the fact that Guo Bingxiang called me.

  Although the relationship between Guo Bingxiang and our Tong Hao family is still wrong, but in the business world, the Xiao family is now a mature businessman, so they can be fettered by these so-called friendships! "

  Da Shen Bi nodded and said: "Understood!"

.

  Kangle Mansion, worldwide shipping!

Guo Bingxiang is sitting in his office with a pony, and his son-in-law Bao Yugang. He is actually a pure-bred Austrian. His original name is Helmert Solman, and he was married to Guo Bingxiang's young son Bao Peiqing. Before that, he took a Chinese name for himself, Bao Yugang.

  At the same time, Bao Yugang is also the first vice chairman of Global Shipping, and his status is lower than that of Tong Haogui at this time.

When Guo Bingxiang passed away and separated, Bao Yugang’s family took over the global shipping of the charter king, while Tong Haogui’s family took over the Silongcang and Huihua merchants that Guo Bingxiang bought at that time. Through equity operations, Huihua merchants became Silongcang At the same time, in the era when Shaya was reborn, Guo Desheng's son completed the privatization of Chinese businessmen.

  Bao Yugang was sitting opposite to Guo Bingxiang, and next to him was Guo Bingxiang's seventh son-in-law, Tong Haogui.

   "Father, what did the Chinese businessmen at HSBC say?"

  Guo Desheng asked Guo Bingxiang.

  Bao Yugang joined Global Shipping in 1970 and was also the first vice chairman of Global Shipping. Guo Desheng vaguely knew that he was definitely Bao Yugang's opponent in shipping.

  So Guo Desheng is very supportive of Guo Bingxiang's ability to do nothing on land.

   This is also one of the reasons why Guo Bingxiang will hand over the Chinese merchants and Silongcang to Tong Haogui when he came here.

  Guo Bingxiang spoke fiercely: "Although HSBC refused to support our acquisition of Chinese businessmen, I can feel that what they really want to support is not us, it should be no one else!"

After that, Guo Bingxiang personally went to HSBC and had an interview with Tong Hao about the acquisition of Chinese businessmen. But at that time, Madden had already discussed with Defeng and Roy Bentley to support Wu Shuhan, so although Madden was cold He received Guo Bingxiang affectionately, but in reality his attitude towards the acquisition of Chinese businessmen was ambiguous.

  This has nothing to do with HSBC’s current development plan. Although the world’s shipping industry is still in a cold wave, the stability of oil prices caused by the oil crisis still has a great impact on the shipping industry.

  Before weighing the pros and cons, HSBC always changed its own business policy. After that, HSBC fully supported Guo Bingxiang's global shipping, but before that, HSBC had unconsciously tightened its support for Tong Haogui.

   It is still too obvious now, wait a year or two, this situation will become more obvious.

  Predecessors said that Tong Haogui successfully predicted the cold wave of the global shipping industry, and then adopted the plan of abandoning the ship and landing to acquire Silongcang.

   But in reality, Guo Bingxiang’s analysis is also comprehensive. One of the most important reference indicators is actually HSBC’s support for the shipping industry.

  At that time, HSBC had shifted its support from the shipping industry to the real estate industry. This was an important reason why Guo Bingxiang always abandoned the boat and landed!

   "Whether John Tong Hao from the Chinese businessman answered my call directly, it was Da Tong Hao who answered the call, and at the same time Da Shen Bi also called me back, and declined my request to meet John Shen Bi!"

  When talking about this matter, Guo Bingxiang showed a sullen look on his face.

  Guo Desheng was full of speech: "The other party is basically thinking about the relationship between you and George Shen Bi, father!"

   "Business is business! I don't think there is anything right about what Shen Bi did!" Bao Yugang said at this time.

Both Tong Haogui and Guo Desheng looked at Bao Yugang with some satisfaction, and Tong Haogui even said directly: "Miss husband, this is Xiangjiang, you know the situation of the people of Huaguo, we are more willing to doubt human relations, Father and George Shen Bi are good friends, even if Shen Bi and his son really want the lowest price, it will delay him from meeting his father.

  Could it be that Cheng's father can hold a knife and force him to sell Chinese businessmen to us? "

  Bao Yu just opened his mouth, knowing what to say.

  Tong Haogui said in a deep voice: "Okay, Ah Wen has received our education since he was a child, and he understands the thinking of us Chinese people. It is unforgivable, so I want to talk about this matter again!"

   "Yes, Father!" Tong Haogui nodded.

  Tong Haogui asked: "Then father, what should we do next?"

Guo Bingxiang said in a deep voice: "Now the price of oil is becoming more and more stable. Although the media are saying that this is only temporary, but people have immediate worries but never foresight. Put all your eggs in one basket, and the current real estate market in Xiangjiang is indeed wrong. If we can acquire Hui Tonghao, it will only expand our fleet, and at the same time allow us to have less in Xiangjiang. Land.

   This kills two birds with one stone, so if we become Chinese businessmen, we are bound to win! "

  Guo Desheng nodded excitedly. Now global shipping is the sky of Bao Yugang. If Guo Bingxiang can buy Huihua merchants, then he must be responsible for the overseas business of Huihua merchants.

  Tong Haogui was also a little excited. Regarding the future of the shipping industry that Guo Bingxiang talked about, Tong Haogui was not so sure. In the future, the shipping industry will be like what Guo Bingxiang said.

  But nothing is certain. If the Global Group can acquire Huihua merchants, then the number of ships in Global Shipping will definitely increase, and the beneficiary will still be yourself.

  Guo Bingxiang looked at the expressions of his two sons-in-law, and he knew what they were thinking because he was mature.

   This also made Guo Bingxiang understand that when he divides the family property in the future, it is certain that these son-in-laws will urinate out of the same pot.

   But at the same time, he had to protect the rights and interests of his son. After working so hard in Xiangjiang for so many years, Guo Bingxiang naturally understood the dirty things in the wealthy family.

  So in the past, Guo Bingxiang established a family trust fund. Although he gave the management rights to his seven sons-in-law, the family trust fund also guaranteed that his son had the ultimate control and income rights over the company.

   But that's all the previous story, what Tong Haogui was thinking at this time was how to get Huihua merchants.

"Ah Zheng, you announced on behalf of the company that our Global Group has officially joined the acquisition of Chinese businessmen. Since John Shen Bi is showing affection, let's meet these Xiangjiang Haili consortiums in the business war! "

   Before Tong Haogui made a decision, he stopped procrastinating and acted vigorously.

  Tong Haogui nodded immediately: "Yes!"

.

  Chinese Walk, top floor, inside Shaya's office!

  Su Haiwen stepped back, "Boss, Universal Group has officially announced that it will intervene in Hui Tonghao's acquisition battle!"

  Sha Ya put down the pen in her hand and raised her head, said with a smile, "It's really getting quieter and quieter. I thought that Guo Bingxiang would also participate in the retreat!"

  In another time and space, Guo Bingxiang bought Silongcang first, and then bought Huihuashang. This time, because of his own intervention, everything changed. Tong Haogui took the lead in purchasing Huihuashang.

   It is really just like the "Ming Pao" said, the rivers and lakes are in trouble again, and the heroes gather to gather Chinese businessmen!

  Su Haiwen was silent for a while, and said: "There is no consortium that announced this matter at the same time!"

  Tong Hao thought for a while, Xiangjiang's lack of strength to acquire Chinese businessmen has basically emerged, should there be any?

   "You mean Changshi supported by HSBC?" Sha Ya thought it was Changshi.

  Su Haiwen shook his head and said, "It's Changshi, but a newly established consortium!"

   "The consortium you just created?" Sha Ya's expression became simpler, and he thought of a possibility: "Which consortium are you talking about?"

   "The Seven Seas Consortium jointly founded by Tong Haogui, New World, Huaguang Real Estate and Nanhai Real Estate!" Su Haiwen preached loudly.

   "They also participated in the retreat?"

  When Sha Ya heard the news, she suddenly knew whether she should be depressed or a headache.

  Tong Haogui’s Guo family, New World’s Zheng family, Huaguang Real Estate’s Zhao family, and Nanhai’s Tang family are all Tong Hao’s best business partners in Xiangjiang.

  At this moment they have also joined and retreated, which means that Sha Ya and them have ended at this moment, and have become a competitive relationship under business!

   "Have Li Jiacheng Securities, Huo Xingyetang, and the small hotel group joined and returned?" Tong Hao asked.

   "Yes, Lijiacheng Securities has little interest in Chinese merchants, Huo Xingyetang should consider his own status, and whether the small hotel group has any interest in this acquisition, so there are only seven companies mentioned below!"

  Tong Haogui preached to Sha Ya.

   Sha Ya nodded and said: "I see, you go out first!"

"Ok!"

  Before Su Haiwen went out, Tong Hao called Li Jiacheng.

   "I knew Zheng Yu that it's time for you to call us!"

   Tong Haogui answered the phone.

  Tong Hao said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, do you have time, let's sit together?"

   Tang Jiqian smiled and said: "I have already reserved this time for you, how about tonight?"

   "Is there any problem, then Qiyuehui?" Sha Ya asked.

   "Yes!" Tong Haogui nodded.

   When the time came to the evening, Tong Hao arrived at Qiyue Club by car.

  When Tong Hao left the private room, he saw Tong Haogui from Lijiacheng Real Estate, Chu Huantong from New World Real Estate, Sun Hung Kai from Huaguang Real Estate, and Zhao Congyan from Nanhai Real Estate were already sitting here.

   "Seven uncles, it's a shame to ask you to wait for me!"

  Sha Ya cupped her fists and apologized.

   Tang Jiqian smiled and said: "The Xiao family is also a member of the family, so I just want to talk about this, so hurry up and sit on it!"

  Before Sha Ya sat down, Chu Huantong took the lead and said: "Zheng Yu, you invited the seven of us here, and what you want to talk about should be about knowing Chinese businessmen!"

  Sha Ya nodded and said: "It's like this. This morning, I received news that the seven uncles wanted to buy a Chinese businessman, so I couldn't resist calling the seven uncles."

Zhao Congyan smiled and said: "Guo Sheng also said just now that we are all from here, Zheng Yu, you can talk about your thoughts first, don't worry about us, and don't care about those competitors, just talk about your own opinion of the Chinese businessmen. idea."

   Sha Ya pondered for a while and preached: "It is inevitable!"

  Zhao Congyan and the others looked at each other, and then laughed together. Tang Jiqian proudly said to Chu Huantong and the others: "What am I talking about? Tong Hao must be like this. Hurry up and take the money!"

  Chu Huantong, Zhao Congyan, and Sun Hung Kai looked at each other, and then each of them took out 100 Hong Kong dollars from their pockets and handed them to Tang Jiqian.

  Seeing this, Sha Ya couldn't help asking curiously: "Uncles, what do you mean?"

Tang Jiqian proudly put 800 Hong Kong dollars out of his pocket, and said with a smile: "What else do you mean? I bet with the eight of them just now, saying that Zheng Yu, you must take into account the friendship between us old guys." , but they said that you have to be firm no matter what, and then I won!"

  Sha Ya said without any embarrassment: "I will remember the help these uncles gave me later. If the uncles really want to meet Tong Hao, our Jiaku can do it."

"Don't!" Tang Jiqian waved his hand directly and said, "Zheng Yu, Xiangjiang is so small. Although our relationship is very wrong, sooner or later we will meet in business. Do you want to give up every time?

   If so, how many times can you make it less? "

  Sha Ya has spoken, he understands Tong Haogui's meaning, friendship is friendship, business is business.

  But Sha Ya's way of getting along with Tang Jiqian and others is the same as that of John Shen Bi and Guo Bingxiang.

  That completely cut off the friendship, and it can even be said that there is no friendship at all.

   But Sha Ya and the others are the same. If there are any internal competitors, the two of them can even sit up and divide the cake of Chinese businessmen.

   But now it is the same.

  The businessmen in Xiangjiang seem to be like this from the beginning to the end, no friendship, no competition, no cooperation.

  Here, you can fight to the death for one project, and turn your head, and then you can cooperate closely and intimately under another project.

   In the final analysis, it is still a sentence, Xiangjiang is too big!

"That's right." Tang Jiqian said to Sha Ya: "Zheng Yu, although we talk here as if the Chinese businessmen are already in the pockets of our two companies, but in fact, based on the current situation, our two companies Is it the most likely to get Chinese businessmen, how about if we unite?"

  Shaya's Jiaku Department, plus Tong Haogui, New World, Huaguang Real Estate, and Nanhai Real Estate can be said to be inferior to any consortium in Xiangjiang.

   But the problem is that they are all Chinese-funded consortiums. In this case, their identities are too sensitive, and they are the weakest competitors for the acquisition of Tong Hao.

"There is a mistake. To be honest, we joined forces this time. In fact, have we ever thought about being able to get a Chinese businessman? What's more, we want to give an attitude. The current Xiangjiang is the Xiangjiang of the 1970s and 1980s. It's time for the British consortium to be alone!"

  Chu Huantong was preaching at this time.

Sha Ya pondered and said: "Several uncles, if it is other things, I will definitely unite with you, but this time it will work. I can tell you the reason now, but I think it will take two years for you knew!"

   Before he finished speaking, Tong Hao stood up, picked up his wine glass, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp!

To be honest, according to Sha Ya's current status in Xiangjiang, it is actually necessary to do so. Although Tong Haogui, New World, Huaguang Real Estate, and Nanhai Real Estate are weak in combination, compared to Tong Hao, they are still enough to see. .

   But Tong Hao still does this now, for others, only for the help these few people have given him in the past few years.

  Tang Jiqian and the seven people looked at each other, and they all saw surprise. They are all the least sensitive people in the business world among the Chinese in Xiangjiang, and it can even be said that the whole Xiangjiang is like this.

  Now when they hear Tong Hao say this, they know that the acquisition of Chinese businessmen is definitely as complicated as everything they see now.

  But the seven of them agreed to ask Sha Ya if they had a tacit understanding.

   No matter how good the relationship is, there is no limit!

   What's more, they are still nominal competitors now!

   "Okay, since you said that, Zheng Yu, then what have we said, then we will see the truth in our hands!"

   Tang Jiqian said with a smile.

   "To be honest, I have long wanted to fight against you, Zheng Yu. In the past few years in Xiangjiang, I have seen Zheng Yu stir up the wind and rain. Now I will let you see the influence of us old guys in Xiangjiang!"

  Chu Huantong also smiled.

   "There's a mistake, those of us made a move, and those seniors inside thought we were old enough to fight!" Zhao Congyan said with a smile.

   "Zheng Yu, you have to be big-hearted. Although we just said that our hope is small, there is no hope. If we win the Chinese businessman in the future, you may be too surprised!"

  Sun Hung Kai also preached with a smile.

  Sha Ya smiled and said: "There is a problem. As the saying goes, one wave is weaker than the first wave, and the back wave hits the beach. If the uncles are defeated by me, they will be angry at that time!"

  After the matter is settled, there will naturally be other things.

  Seven people were sitting here, chatting, tasting wine, and soon it was 11 o'clock, and Tong Haogui and the seven people also got up at this time to say goodbye to Sha Ya.

  Before the seven left, Sha Ya sat alone in the private room, thinking silently about Huitong Hao's takeover battle.

   Of course, he was also thinking about the seven of them just now.

My own rebirth has brought little changes to the current Xiangjiang business community. Wu Shuhan is the one who is least affected, but the seven of them. Judging from their development trajectory in another time and space, Shaya actually has nothing to offer. They brought the slightest influence, and even pushed back their development to a certain extent.

  Of course, this is not Sha Ya trying to comfort herself, she just wants to take advantage of this incident and filter the future development of Xiangjiang.

Just when Sha Ya was thinking about these things, the door of the private room was pushed open, Wu Guangzheng poked his head back, seeing that there was only Sha Ya in the room, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Walked back waddlingly.

  Before him, there were Zheng Jiachun, Tang Yunian, and Zhao Shizeng.

   "Zheng Yu, you are giving us a little face this time. If you show your falsehood, we will forgive you!"

  Wu Guangzheng stood behind Sha Ya, preaching proudly.

   "If anyone of you puts Wu Guangzheng on the ground and rubs against him so much that even his father recognizes him, I'll invite him to Japan for a week!"

  Saya preached silently.

  Zhao Shizeng, Zheng Jiachun, and Tang Yunian immediately pushed Wu Guangzheng underground

   "You people are loyal!"

  Wu Guangzheng cried miserably.

   Not today, thank you everyone~·
