Chapter 661 Defense of the Bank of East Asia (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

   After talking with Shen Bi, Chu Huan began to concentrate on the acquisition of Bank of East Asia.

Now that Chu Huan has acquired the shares of the Jian family and the Feng family in the Bank of East Asia, that is to say, at this time, Chu Huan has become the major shareholder of the Bank of East Asia, has the right to hold the board of directors of the Bank of East Asia, and joins the board of directors in accordance with Xiangjiang's "Company Law". The Board of Directors of BEA became a director.

  In fact, Chu Huan did the same!

   Just after Jiaku completed the official acquisition of Jian’s and Feng’s shares in Bank of East Asia, Chu Huan sent a notice to the Bank of East Asia’s board of directors in the name of Jiaku to convene the Bank of East Asia’s board of directors!

"how can that be?"

  Li Fushu sat in the office of the President of the Bank of East Asia, looking at the notification letter in his hand, unable to accept this result for a while.

  As for Li Fushu's son, Li Guobao, who is currently the general manager of the Bank of East Asia, was sitting in front of Li Fushu, but his face was full of horror. When he woke up, the world had changed, which caught him off guard.

   "Isn't there a rumor in the market that Chu Huan's Alder Commercial Bank is going to enter Xiangjiang? Why did he acquire the shares of our Bank of East Asia and become the largest shareholder?"

At this time, Li Fushu thought that he had seen through Chu Huan's ways, and said with a gloomy face: "Alder Commercial Bank entered Xiangjiang, but it will definitely take time to develop. If you want to shorten this time, it is best The best way is to buy a local bank in Xiangjiang, it is obvious that Chu Huan is eyeing our Bank of East Asia!"

"He's going to buy other banks. Why do you want to do something to our Bank of East Asia? Hasn't he been cooperating with our Bank of East Asia before? Isn't he worried about what Xiangjiang's colleagues will say about his hostile takeover?" ?”

   Li Guobao is obviously out of control at this time. Chu Huan's influence is too great. Now that Chu Huan has become the major shareholder of Bank of East Asia, can the Li family still have a say in Bank of East Asia?

Li Fushu's mind is also a little confused at this time, but he is calmer than Li Guobao after all, "What does he have to worry about, if Jian Yueqiang is still sitting in my position, then Xiangjiang's colleagues will definitely treat this There is an excuse for this matter, but now it is our Li family, Chu Huan has no friendship with our Li family!"

  The whole of Xiangjiang knows that when Chu Huan first started his business in Xiangjiang, he got help from the Bank of East Asia, but everyone also knows that Chu Huan got help from the Bank of East Asia under the management of Jian Yueqiang, not their Li family.

   Later, in order to compete for the management rights of the Bank of East Asia, the Li family and the Jian family broke out a war within the board of directors. In the end, Jian Yueqiang sadly left the position of chairman of the Bank of East Asia.

  Li Fushu served as the chairman of the Bank of East Asia.

   What Chu Huan is doing now, in the eyes of many people, is actually Chu Huan's revenge for Jian Yueqiang. Although Chu Huan doesn't think so, many people think so.

  So now that Chu Huan has come forward to become the largest shareholder of Bank of East Asia, no one can say anything about this in the business circle of Xiangjiang.

  Thinking of this, Li Guobao looked at Li Fushu in horror and said, "Daddy, we have to think of a way now. Chu Huan notified us to hold a board meeting. He must be a member of the Bank of East Asia's board of directors!"

Li Fushu smiled wryly, and said, "A director of the Bank of East Asia, do you think Chu Huan will be satisfied? Now that the Xiangjiang Branch of Alder Commercial Bank is about to be listed in Xiangjiang, Chu Huan's real goal must be to gain control of the Bank of East Asia. Even to achieve complete control!"

   Li Guobao said loudly: "If this is the case, then we should have made preparations earlier!"

After all, Li Fushu is a person who has weathered the storm. After a short period of panic, he quickly came up with corresponding countermeasures and said: "Abao, you should contact the other shareholders of the company immediately, and you must seek their support. , as long as the support votes we get on the board of directors can be equivalent to Chu Huan's equity, then we still have a chance to win."

  Li Guobao did not dare to delay, and immediately said: "No problem."

  The major shareholders of the Bank of East Asia are basically family friends of the Li family. It is not too difficult to get their support.

  However, Li Guobao was still a little curious, and asked Li Fushu: "Daddy, what are you doing?"

  Li Guobao smiled wryly and said, "What else can I do, borrow money!"

   It is not enough to have the support of the directors of the Bank of East Asia's board of directors. The Li family needs to acquire more shares in the Bank of East Asia in the stock market. Only in this way can they guarantee their control over the Bank of East Asia.

  However, the Li family is the same as most of the rich families in Xiangjiang. Their paper wealth is indeed amazing, but in fact most of their assets come from stocks, real estate, antiques and other assets with appreciation effects, rather than cash.

   Now that this incident happened too suddenly, it is impossible for Li Guobao to have too much cash in a short period of time, so he can only borrow money.

   And now that Chu Huan has become the major shareholder of Bank of East Asia, if the Li family borrows money from Bank of East Asia, it will easily become the point of Chu Huan's attack.

  Li Guobao nodded and was about to leave, but just after taking two steps, she suddenly turned around and said, "Daddy, should we meet with Chu Huan in advance, no matter what, I think we can still discuss this matter?"

  Li Fushu nodded and said: "Don't worry about this matter, go and contact those shareholders first, and I will contact Chu Huan!"

"OK!"

  As one of the first four wealthy families in Xiangjiang, the Li family naturally has a very deep network in Xiangjiang. In just one morning, Li Fushu had already raised 200 million Hong Kong dollars!

  After having this fund, I immediately asked my private securities traders to wait for my order when the Xiangjiang stock market opened in the afternoon. As long as I received my call, I immediately bought the shares of Bank of East Asia on the stock market!

   After finishing the call, Li Fushu took a deep breath and dialed the number of Chu Huan's office.

   "Chu Dong, I wonder if you have time, should we meet?"

  Chu Huan sat on a chair in his office, not surprised by Li Fushu's phone call, and said with a smile, "I'll wait for Li Weng at the company!"

  Li Fushu took the phone and preached: "Okay, I'll go there now!"

   At noon, Li Fushu came to Chu Huan's office and met Chu Huan who was handling official business.

   "Director Chu!"

   "Li Weng!"

  The two exchanged greetings and shook hands, and then Li Fushu sat across from Chu Huan.

  Li Fushu said straight to the point: "Chu Dong, can we still discuss the acquisition of the Bank of East Asia?"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "I'm very sorry, the acquisition of the Bank of East Asia is an important strategic plan for our Jiaku's future development. If possible, I hope that we can buy all the shares of the Li family in the Bank of East Asia from Li Weng's hands. !"

  Li Fushu's expression froze. He originally wanted to persuade Chu Huan to give up the acquisition of Bank of East Asia, but he didn't expect that Chu Huan would actually want to buy the shares of Bank of East Asia in his own hands.

"Mr. Chu, although you have bought the shares of Bank of East Asia from Jian Yueqiang and Feng Tifen and become the largest shareholder of Bank of East Asia, our Li family has the support of the board of directors of Bank of East Asia and is also the second largest shareholder of Bank of East Asia. It is not an easy task for you to enter the Bank of East Asia!"

Chu Huan nodded slightly, and said: "If Li Weng is willing to sell the shares of Bank of East Asia, then the rest will be simple. Of course, our bid is very fair. If Li Weng is willing to sell, our Jiaku Willing to buy the Li family’s shares in Bank of East Asia at a premium of 30%!”

  Li Fushu shook his head, and said seriously: "Mr. Chu, the Bank of East Asia was founded by my father, and it is also the family business of our Li family. It is impossible for our Li family to sell the shares of the Bank of East Asia!"

  Chu Huan knocked on the table, and said with a smile: "If this is the case, then it seems that the two of us have no way to reach an agreement, and we can only see the outcome at the board meeting!"

Li Fushu is a little angry. Chu Huan's attitude is obviously a decision for the Li family. I think the Li family was one of the four big families in Xiangjiang back then. The Chinese businessmen in Xiangjiang dared to make trouble for them. Li Fushu was a little helpless.

"Mr. Chu, when you bought Huaren Real Estate, our Li family first sold the shares of Huaren Real Estate to Mr. Chu. We both have some friendship. Why did Mr. Chu insist on keeping an eye on our Bank of East Asia?" Why don't you let it go?"

  Although he was very angry in his heart, Li Fushu had no choice but to lower his stance at this time, asking Chu Huan not to buy their Bank of East Asia.

  Because when facing Chu Huan, Li Fushu really didn't have much confidence to win this battle to defend the Bank of East Asia!

Chu Huan also said earnestly: "Of course, I was very grateful for Li Weng's help back then, but now we are in business and talking about business, and buying the Li family's shares in the Bank of East Asia at a high price is already my return to Li Weng's back then. Supported."

Li Fushu saw that Chu Huan would not enter, so he could only stand up and said, "Mr. Chu, our Li family has not been given for nothing in Hong Kong for so many years. We will definitely not give up the management rights of the Bank of East Asia. Now look at it." Come on, we can only see each other in the market!"

  Chu Huan nodded and said: "It seems that this is the only way!"

   After Li Fushu reached out to shake hands with Chu Huan, he turned around and left Chu Huan's office. Although the atmosphere between the two sides was a bit tense, it would not make the two sides confront each other like shrews scolding the street. Everyone is a respectable figure in Xiangjiang.

   Such a thing cannot be done! .

  The time came in the afternoon, the Xiangjiang stock market opened, and then two funds entered the Xiangjiang stock market, and began to sweep up the stocks of the Bank of East Asia.

  The sudden behavior immediately attracted the attention of many stockholders. This was a sweeping behavior without warning.

   "Could it be that someone wants to acquire Bank of East Asia?"

   Some stockholders immediately and keenly noticed something.

  When this kind of thing is noticed by the stockholders, it has already shown that the matter has been completely spread among the upper echelons.

.

  HSBC Bank, Taipan Office!

  Roy Bentley and Shen Bi were also discussing the meeting between Shen Bi and Chu Huan.

   "So Chu Huan rejected our request to invest in the Xiangjiang Branch of Alder Commercial Bank?" Roy Bentley said with a gloomy expression.

  Looking at Roy Bentley's expression, Shen Bi felt a little helpless in his heart. Although he was recalled by Roy Bentley in Japan, Shen Bi still despised Roy Bentley's ability in his heart.

   "That's right, Chu Huan has already told me very bluntly that he will not agree to this matter!"

  Roy Bentley said with some dissatisfaction: "This Chu Huan is still the same as before, protecting his core industry to death!"

  After complaining, Roy Bentley asked Shen Bi: "Then what does the other party think about our previous cooperation with Jiaku?"

  Shen Bi said: "I think the share of cooperation between our two parties will definitely decrease, but Chu Huan will not spend time with their funds in HSBC at one time, this can still be guaranteed!"

  Roy Bentley shook his head after hearing this: "Even if it is part of the withdrawal, it is very important for HSBC."

   Shen Bi agrees with Roy Bentley's statement, although this is nonsense to Shen Bi.

"But fortunately, Chu Huan's plan to acquire Xiangjiang Local Bank has been blocked. As long as he does not obtain the right to operate Xiangjiang Local Bank, it will be difficult for Chu Huan to have a greater influence on us in Xiangjiang's financial industry. !"

  Roy Bentley analyzed the current situation, why HSBC can become the quasi-central bank of Xiangjiang, one of the reasons is that HSBC controls Xiangjiang’s money bag, and the citizens of Xiangjiang have become accustomed to putting their deposits in HSBC.

  The citizens of Xiangjiang also naturally have a distrust of foreign-funded banks. They always think that they are not from Xiangjiang. They turned around and left that day.

  Shen Bi nodded, and said: "Now we can only make preparations in this regard, and try our best to prevent Chu Huan from getting involved in Xiangjiang's local banking industry too early!"

   It is basically impossible for Shen Bi to completely prevent Chu Huan from entering Xiangjiang's banking industry. The only thing they can do is to slow down the time of Chu Huan's entry as much as possible.

   In this way, HSBC will have more time to discuss how to deal with Chu Huan after entering Xiangjiang's local banking industry.

   "That's right!" Roy Bentley agreed with Shen Bi's opinion.

   But while the two were discussing this matter, there was a sudden knock on the door of Roy Bentley's office.

"Come in!"

   Roy Bentley's voice was a little deep.

   It was Roy Bentley's secretary who walked in. At this moment, she looked at Roy Bentley and Shen Bi with some trepidation, and then preached.

"Dapan, the general manager, just got the news that as soon as the Hang Seng Index opened this afternoon, two stocks of funds rushed into the stock market and began to sweep up the stocks of the Bank of East Asia. Now the rumors have gone crazy, saying that someone wants to buy the Bank of East Asia !"

After hearing the news, Roy Bentley didn't think much about it, he just smiled and said, "Want to buy Bank of East Asia? It's not that simple. Although there are many differences between the Jane family, the Feng family, and the Li family, but The control of Bank of East Asia is still very unified, even if someone wants to acquire it, it will not succeed!"

   Shen Bi, who did not speak, suddenly changed his expression, "Not good!"

   A 'no' caught Roy Bentley's attention and asked, "What's wrong?"

  Shen Bi said with some annoyance: "How could I have forgotten the Bank of East Asia? The relationship between Chu Huan and Jian Yueqiang is extraordinary!"

Although in Shen Bi's view, Roy Bentley's ability is not enough to take the position of HSBC executive, it does not mean that Roy Bentley is a fool. After Shen Bi said this, he also thought of something instantly .

   "You mean it was Chu Huan who bought Bank of East Asia?"

"Besides him, who else could it be?" Shen Bi said helplessly, "We can imagine the difficulty of acquiring Bank of East Asia, but couldn't the person who did it behind the scenes not think of it? But under such circumstances, the other party still did it, This shows that the opponent is bound to win this time, and I can't think of anyone else who has this strength in Xiangjiang except Chu Huan!"

  Roy Bentley's complexion also completely changed.

  They were complacent before thinking that they prevented Chu Huan from acquiring Citibank’s shares in the Far East Bank, and they thought everything would be fine, but they didn’t expect that Chu Huan turned his gun and aimed at the more powerful Bank of East Asia in Xiangjiang!

  Bank of East Asia and Bank of the Far East are two completely different concepts. The depositors of the Bank of the Far East are mostly aborigines in the New Territories. Even though there are many depositors, the amount of deposits is still not enough.

   More importantly, the Far East Bank does not have much influence in the Hong Kong business community, but the Bank of East Asia is different.

  They have been established in Hong Kong for 50 years, and their main business is also from Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, and they also have intricate relationships with many commercial companies in Hong Kong.

  If Chu Huan is really the one who bought Bank of East Asia, and this acquisition makes Chu Huan successful, then when Alder Commercial Bank enters Xiangjiang, it can seamlessly connect various businesses of Xiangjiang.

  This will be an even greater loss for HSBC!

   "What's Li Fushu's reaction?" Roy Bentley asked his secretary immediately after trying to understand the problem.

   "The Hang Seng Index opened this afternoon, and one of the two funds we believe is that Li Fushu is snapping up shares in Bank of East Asia."

Shen Bi analyzed: "Jian's family, Feng's family, and Li's family hold more than 51% of the Bank of East Asia's shares, but now Li Fushu is buying a large number of Bank of East Asia's tradable shares in the stock market, which shows that, At least Chu Huan has obtained the shares of the Jian family and the Feng family in the Bank of East Asia."

Roy Bentley didn't think about it at all, and immediately said to the secretary: "Contact Li Fushu immediately, and say that HSBC is willing to support Li Fushu in this matter. If Li Fushu needs anything, you can let them contact us at HSBC immediately. !"

"yes!"

Shen Bi also said immediately at this time: "I will contact Feng Tianfen now. I suspect that Jian Yueqiang is most likely to sell his shares to Chu Huan. shares, then this matter will be easy to handle!"

  Roy Bentley looked at Shen Bi in surprise. At this moment, he had already figured out what Shen Bi meant, and at the same time, his heart began to become complicated.

  All I thought about was how to prevent Chu Huan from getting shares in Bank of East Asia in this matter, but what Shen Bi thought about was how to make HSBC one of the major shareholders of Bank of East Asia in this crisis of Bank of East Asia!

.

   "Loss, loss, loss!"

  Feng Qingzhao found Feng Tifen at this time and preached loudly.

  Feng Tifen closed the document in her hand, looked at Feng Qingzhao with some dissatisfaction, and said, "What's going on in a panic, is that what you learned at Harvard?"

Feng Qingzhao didn't care about his father's reprimand, but said: "Daddy, I just received a call. Now there are two stocks of funds in the stock market that are buying the shares of Bank of East Asia. It's only an hour. Bank of East Asia The stock price of the Bank of East Asia has risen by 2.55%. If this trend continues, it is impossible to say that the acquisition battle of the Bank of East Asia will cause the stock price of the Bank of East Asia to rise by at least 50%!

   Now we have sold our shares in Bank of East Asia to Chu Huan at a 30% premium price. Isn’t that a loss? What is this? "

Feng Tianfen looked at her eldest son speechlessly, and looked at Chu Huan, who had already created a huge industry when he was in college, but his son, who has graduated from Harvard now, is still in the future. Things can't be seen through, only immediate benefits can be seen.

   This made Feng Tianfen very suspicious that he would hand over the Feng Tianfen Group to the two brothers in the future, and whether they could bring the Feng Tianfen Group to continue its glory.

   "You saw that we lost money in this matter, didn't you see other things?"

Feng Qingzhao didn't know that his behavior just now made his father dissatisfied with him, so he said firmly: "Yes, even if we want to sell the shares of Bank of East Asia, we can sell the shares in the stock market now. If the shares are sold, wouldn't we earn more?"

  Feng Tiffen said calmly: "If you don't get our family's shares in Bank of East Asia, do you think Chu Huan will buy shares in Bank of East Asia in the stock market?"

Feng Qingzhao said: "Since Chu Huan wants to enter Xiangjiang's banking industry, he must make a big move. According to his previous business methods, I think he will definitely buy the shares of Bank of East Asia in the stock market! "

Feng Tinfen said: "He will buy, but he will definitely not buy with such a big fanfare. Instead, he will use the retail investors in the hands of Fengwu Securities to buy shares in Bank of East Asia until he has enough shares. At that time, do you think we Are the shares in your hand worth that much money?"

  Feng Qingzhao didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Azhao, we can't always look at the immediate interests when we do things. At the beginning, we held the shares of Bank of East Asia to ensure that our own group can have sufficient funds in the first time when there is a possibility that it will appear in the future. Support our company, but according to our relationship with the Li family, this first time must be discounted.

But now that the shares of the Bank of East Asia are sold to Chu Huan, the situation is different. We have gained Chu Huan’s friendship, and you should know the influence of Jiaku in Xiangjiang without me telling you, and Chu Huan has already promised me , if Feng Tianfen Group has problems in the future, he will help as soon as possible.

  Chu Huan's promise is more secure than our shares in Bank of East Asia! "

  My son is my own. Although he is a little reckless, he still needs to be educated.

Feng Qingzhao heard what his father said and understood the meaning, but he still said in a low voice: "I just feel that we sold the shares of the Bank of East Asia to Chu Huan at such a low price, which is a bit too bad! "

  Feng Tifen felt speechless. He understood what he said so clearly, why didn't he understand it?

  "Don't just focus on the immediate interests when doing business. Those who seek big things should first focus on the structure. If your eyes are always on these immediate interests, then your future achievements will be limited!"

  Seeing what Feng Tianfen said, Feng Qingzhao didn't dare to say anything.

   At this time, the phone on Feng Tianfen's desk also rang. After Feng Tianfen answered the phone, he recognized that the other party was Li Fushu.

  Li Fushu asked on the phone: "I just want to ask you, have you sold the shares in Bank of East Asia to Chu Huan?"

  Feng Tifen only replied lightly to her old opponent: "Since you already know, what are you talking about?"

  Li Fushu hung up the phone.

   Just as Feng Tianfen put down the phone, the phone on the desk rang. This time it was Shen Bi calling Feng Tianfen.

   "Okay, I will be on time for the appointment!" Feng Tifen said on the phone.

   Regarding Shen Bi's invitation, Feng Tifen was a little puzzled, and didn't understand why Shen Bi wanted to find herself at this time.

.

Bank of East Asia!

  Li Fushu put down the phone, with a gloomy expression on his face, "Sure enough, Feng Tianfen also sold his shares in Bank of East Asia to Chu Huan!"

   Li Guobao, who was sitting opposite Li Fushu, said in a puzzled way: "If Chu Huan has already acquired Jian's and Feng's shares in the Bank of East Asia, why hasn't it been announced yet?"

  Chu Huan holds two shares and is already the largest shareholder of Bank of East Asia. According to Xiangjiang's "Company Law", this must be announced.

  Li Fushu said: "Now these two shares in Bank of East Asia must be scattered under the names of different companies of Chu Huan or other people, but don't worry, I think it will be announced after the board meeting!"

  Li Guobao nodded and said, "Understood."

   "How are we doing in the stock market?" Li Fushu asked Li Guobao.

Li Guobao said helplessly: "The news that Chu Huan wants to acquire the Bank of East Asia has spread, and those stockholders think that this is an opportunity to make a lot of money, so everyone is now holding tight to their shares. I want to wait until the stock price of Bank of East Asia rises to their psychological price before selling it!"

  Li Fushu was also quite helpless when he heard the news, but he was also a little thankful: "If they don't sell it, let's not sell it. As long as we can get the support of most shareholders of Bank of East Asia, we can keep Bank of East Asia."

  Li Guobao nodded.

   Then Li Fushu received a call from HSBC.

   "Thank you, Mr. Taipan, your call is really important!" Li Fushu expressed his gratitude immediately after knowing what HSBC meant.

.

  The next day, the headlines of the major newspapers in Xiangjiang all made the battle for the Bank of East Asia the headline.

   Among them, the most striking is a statement published by the board of directors of the Bank of East Asia in the "Sing Tao Daily".

   "Battle to defend the Bank of East Asia!"

   Also, Huangshan continues to code words~~
