   "Battle to defend the Bank of East Asia?"

  In the office of the Chinese Bank, Chu Huan looked at the freshly released "Sing Tao Daily" this morning in his hand, and preached calmly.

   "It seems that Li Fushu really wants to keep the Bank of East Asia this time."

Xu Yi sat across from Chu Huan, pondered: "It's understandable, Jian's family has basically given up on Xiangjiang's company, and more is to keep their properties in Xiangjiang to collect rent, Feng's will More attention was paid to the Feng Tien Fen Group, their own industry, only the Li family.

  Although the Li family belonged to a big family in Xiangjiang, they were not harmonious internally. After Li Fushu took the position of chairman of the Bank of East Asia, Li Fushu had already regarded the Bank of East Asia as their own industry.

That is to say, both the Feng family and the Jian family have a way out. The Bank of East Asia is not the only one for them, but the Li family is different. Now the Bank of East Asia is their only one, so Li Fushu will definitely not give up the management right of the Bank of East Asia easily. of. "

Chu Huan nodded, agreed with Xu Yi's analysis, and said: "Now that the Bank of East Asia has issued such an announcement, it is obvious that Li Fushu thinks that they already have the capital to compete with us, and the most important thing is that he should We already know about the Feng family, and the Jian family has already sold their shares in the Bank of East Asia to us, but they still choose to do so, which means that they must have sufficient bargaining chips!"

  In "Battle of the Bank of East Asia!" ’ In this article, the Board of Directors of the Bank of East Asia represented by Li Fushu issued a statement.

First of all, the board of directors of Bank of East Asia stated that the development of Bank of East Asia is now in good condition. The loan-to-deposit ratio is lower than the normal ratio of Heung Kong Commercial Bank. The stock price is stable. At the same time, it is one of the twenty blue chips in Hong Kong. No problem, so the Board of Directors of BEA has no reason to sell the shares of BEA.

Secondly, the board of directors of the Bank of East Asia also reminded the retail investors of the Bank of East Asia that according to Chu Huan’s previous acquisitions in Xiangjiang, after Chu Huan became the major shareholder of the Bank of East Asia, he would definitely choose to privatize the Bank of East Asia. Shareholders who hold shares in Bank of East Asia have no way to watch their stocks continue to appreciate.

Secondly, it is an open letter from the board of directors of Bank of East Asia to the major shareholders of Bank of East Asia. In the open letter, the board of directors of Bank of East Asia told the major shareholders of Bank of East Asia that the future development of Bank of East Asia must be very impressive, otherwise Chu Huan would not choose Bank of East Asia's acquisition means that the market value of Bank of East Asia will definitely continue to increase in the future. The major shareholders of Bank of East Asia should not be fooled by the benefits that Chu Huan presents.

In the end, the board of directors of BEA told all holders of shares of BEA that if they really wanted to sell the shares of BEA, then the board of directors of BEA was the best choice, because they were willing to give a higher price, thereby guaranteeing Control of BEA by the Board of Directors of BEA.

   "Did you see any problems in their statement?"

  Chu Huan asked Xu Yi.

  Xu Yi said: "The Li family told us that they have obtained the support of most directors of the Bank of East Asia's board of directors, and they also have enough cash in their hands to support them to compete with us for the shares of the Bank of East Asia!"

  Chu Huan leaned on the chair, and said helplessly: "Yes, this is the trouble of acquiring these small companies!"

  Xu Yi sat there and secretly rolled her eyes. In Xiangjiang, it is estimated that Chu Huan is qualified to call Bank of East Asia a small company.

"It is indeed the case. I believe that if we increase our acquisition efforts, someone will definitely sell us their shares in the Bank of East Asia, but at the same time, this will increase our losses. The most important thing is to exceed the Bank of East Asia itself. Asset value, this is an unsuccessful acquisition.

  If the company has such an operation in the future, then other companies in Xiangjiang will follow suit! "

The market value of the entire Bank of East Asia is only 880 million Hong Kong dollars. If Chu Huan is really determined to acquire Bank of East Asia, it is actually not impossible. If no one sells the 30% premium, then the 50% premium, or even Double, double the premium.

  In fact, there are still many such cases in the acquisition battles in the commercial history of Xiangjiang, such as the earliest Jardine Matheson acquisition of Dairy Cow Company, and the upcoming acquisition of Wharf by Bao Yugang.

  In these acquisitions, the acquired party has increased its market value several times in a short period of time.

Now Bank of East Asia is a high-quality local bank in Hong Kong, and its development plan has always been affirmed by shareholders. If Chu Huan really starts this acquisition battle with the Li family, then no one will know how much the stock price of Bank of East Asia will rise by then. Know.

   But what is certain is that when the takeover battle is over, the stock price will drop to the bottom like a waterfall in an instant.

  That's why Xu Yi said that this was not a successful acquisition.

  Anything has a price, if it exceeds its own value, then it is a failed acquisition.

   "When Bank of East Asia closed last night, how much did the price increase?" Chu Huan asked Xu Yi.

Xu Yi said: "The value has increased by 13.5%. However, although the company has not officially announced the acquisition of Bank of East Asia, people outside have already guessed it. Now, coupled with the statement of the Board of Directors of Bank of East Asia, it directly points out that you, the boss, I think those shareholders of Bank of East Asia will definitely not sell the shares of Bank of East Asia today.”

  Yesterday, Chu Huan already knew that those shareholders who held shares of Bank of East Asia had firmly grasped their stocks after they knew that they were buying Bank of East Asia, and they were waiting for a higher price.

  Chu Huan nodded slightly, and said: "Let the public relations department make an announcement, and at the same time let Fengwu Securities continue to buy the shares of Bank of East Asia. I also want to see how much bargaining chips the Li family has in their hands!"

Xu Yi reminded: "Boss, as a traditional wealthy family in Xiangjiang, the Li family still has a lot of contacts in Xiangjiang. I don't think we can take them lightly. The cash in their hands is definitely not as good as ours, but I think the cash in their hands must be It can reach the critical value of the final stock price of Bank of East Asia.”

Chu Huan nodded and said: "It seems that this is not an acquisition that can be completed in a short period of time, but don't worry, the funds in our hands are all our own, and the funds of the Li family must be borrowed , As long as it is borrowed, there will be a cost, I don't believe how long they can hold on to us!"

  Xu Yi's eyes lit up, and she understood what Chu Huan meant. Chu Huan wanted to grind the Li family to death.

   "By the way, let the investigation department investigate and find out who lent money to the Li family!"

  Chu Huan continued to give instructions.

  Xu Yi nodded.

  In order to cooperate with Chu Huan's statement, "Zhenbao" temporarily issued a midday issue at noon, and specially published a statement about Jiaku's acquisition of Bank of East Asia.

   And this statement also directly admitted the authenticity of Jiaku's acquisition of Bank of East Asia, and now Xiangjiang's stock market is boiling.

  The Hang Seng Index closed this morning, and the stock price of Bank of East Asia directly rose by 38.9% according to the original price, but the stock price of Bank of East Asia is still priceless!

  Everyone understands that this is just an appetizer, and everyone wants to see how much the final purchase price can rise.

Faced with such a situation, Chu Huan was also a little helpless. Now that his name had become a gold-lettered signboard in Xiangjiang, everyone knew that there was nothing Chu Huan could not get. Now everyone was sure that this Field acquisitions will definitely create a new height.

   "It seems that this acquisition battle really cannot end in a short time!"

  Cao Yunshang came to the Chinatown at noon. Now that he has completed the global fashion show of the Imperial Fashion Group, Cao Yunshang no longer runs around the world. Instead, he sits in Xiangjiang and directs the global business of the Imperial Fashion Group through conference calls.

  However, because the communication is not yet developed, Cao Yunshang borrowed a group of people from Chu Huan's Jiaku, and placed them in various branches of the Imperial Fashion Group around the world, so as to better control these branches.

Chu Huan nodded and said: "Things are indeed a bit difficult. If we can't get the shares of the Bank of East Asia in circulation, there is no way to complete the privatization strategy of the Bank of East Asia. Even if we enter the board of directors of the Bank of East Asia in the future , won the support of more shareholders, and the privatization will be stopped by the Hong Kong government!"

This is the most difficult thing about the whole thing. The previous merger and acquisition plan of Continental International Investment can make the Hong Kong government stop the merger on the grounds that Hong Kong's "Company Law" harms the interests of minority shareholders. Similarly, the Hong Kong government can also Use this policy to stop Chu Huan's idea of ​​privatizing the Bank of East Asia.

   Moreover, Chu Huan couldn't find any way to refute.

  So if Chu Huan wants to get the Bank of East Asia now, he must get more shares in the Bank of East Asia from shareholders. Only in this way will there be less resistance in the process of privatization in the future.

   "Then what do you think now?"

  Cao Yunshang asked Chu Huan.

  Chu Huan said: "Now we can only try to buy back all the circulating shares of the Bank of East Asia in the stock market. Next, let's see what the Li family can do."

  Cao Yunshang couldn't find a better way for a while, so he could only echo: "It seems that it can only be like this now."

   Then Cao Yunshang asked: "Will it delay the listing ceremony of Alder Commercial Bank Xiangjiang Branch in Xiangjiang?"

   "Probably not. After all, there is still more than a month before Alder Commercial Bank Xiangjiang Branch is listed." Chu Huan said confidently.

  Although it seems that the acquisition of Bank of East Asia has entered a bottleneck period, for Chu Huan, the significance of Bank of East Asia is far greater than his actual significance.

   There is no way around this. After this year, my hometown will officially determine the future development direction. Although there are still various problems in the later stage, there will be no change in the general direction.

Although it is not possible for the banking industry to enter his hometown for the time being, it can already be laid out in advance. Just like Feng Jingxi's Sun Hung Kai Securities, he will establish an office of Sun Hung Kai Securities in his hometown this year. It was several years later.

   This is like writing an article, there must be a preliminary preparation, it is impossible to start a big showdown, so that readers will not feel the tension and excitement!

   While Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang were discussing the Bank of East Asia, Xu Yi walked into the office and preached to Chu Huan.

   "Boss, Guo Desheng from Sun Hung Kai, Zheng Yutong from New World, and Li Jiacheng from Changshi have arrived at the company!"

  Currently, Chu Huan's working hours have been arranged in advance, but because Guo Desheng and the other three made a temporary phone call, they could only arrange for Chu Huan to meet them at noon.

   "Come in, please!"

  After Xu Yi left, Cao Yunshang asked Chu Huan curiously: "How did the three of them get together?"

  Chu Huan said: "The three of them now want to buy the former site of British American Tobacco in Wanchai, which happens to be the same as the plan of Zhulu Real Estate. I think they came here for this matter!"

As Chu Huan took over Zhang's company in Xiangjiang from Zhang Yuliang, Chu Huan is now the largest landlord in Wanchai. In order to better integrate the commercial buildings in Wanchai, Zhulu Real Estate has chosen Wanchai British American Tobacco The company's old site, but I don't want to, Sun Hung Kai, New World, and Cheung Kong have also spotted this land and are preparing to jointly bid for it. Now they must have come here for this matter.

  As Chu Huan said, the three of them came here this time for this matter.

"Ah Huan, we are all old friends, and you are the second largest shareholder of our three companies. In fact, our investment in this land is equivalent to your investment in this land. I think the best relationship between us is now. It's better to sit down and discuss this matter carefully, otherwise, if we wait until the auction, we will fight to the death, and the result will benefit British American Tobacco, which is not worth it!"

  Guo Desheng preached to Chu Huan with a smile on his face.

  Zheng Yutong also said: "That's right, it's impossible for the four of us to jointly develop this land. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

  Although Li Jiacheng didn't speak, he meant the same thing.

  In another time and space, the land was finally obtained by the joint bidding of the three of them, and then the Elizabeth Building and the Locke Building were built here.

"Three, according to the relationship between the two of us, all three of us have come to the door, I should join hands with the three, but this land is also very important for us to compete for real estate. In the center of the building, this piece of land was photographed, and our Zhulu Real Estate can form a complete commercial district in this area of ​​Wanchai, so I can only say sorry to everyone here, three of you!"

  The three of them looked at each other, seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.

If it's just such an isolated piece of land, they can continue to discuss it with Chu Huan, but now that Chu Huan has said this, it is obvious that he wants to make this place a commercial area similar to the Landmark Plaza in Central. There is no possibility of Chu Huan letting go.

  However, this does not allow them to give up this piece of land just like this. Now that the two parties cannot reach a consensus to resolve this matter peacefully, then the next step is to see the outcome at the bidding meeting.

  Although they belong to a cooperative relationship, many businesses are united together, and even Chu Huan is the second largest shareholder of the three companies, but they are still different individuals, so for their own interests and development, they must still fight.

   "From this point of view, it is inevitable that the two of us will have a fierce battle!"

  Zheng Yutong said with a smile.

With the development of Xiangjiang Real Estate, especially the first phase of New World Center is about to be completed, Zheng Yutong's New World Real Estate has become the real estate company listed in Xiangjiang, second only to Landmark. According to the current stock price of New World, New World Real Estate The market value of the world is as high as 1.66 billion Hong Kong dollars, ranking ninth among all listed companies in Hong Kong.

  In addition, Sun Hung Kai Properties has a market value of HK$940 million, ranking 14th.

   As for Changshi, which was suppressed by Chu Huan in the early stage, it still ranks 13th with a market value of 930 million Hong Kong dollars. It has to be said that Li Jiacheng's ability is really powerful.

  So the three of them teamed up, and they still have the confidence to compete with Chu Huan for this piece of land.

  Chu Huan said with a smile: "Everyone is second in competition, and friendship is first!"

  Guo Desheng, Zheng Yutong, and Li Jiacheng also laughed after hearing this.

  Afterwards, Guo Desheng asked Chu Huan: "A Huan, this time your acquisition of the Bank of East Asia does not look so easy!"

  Since the matter has been published in the newspaper, Guo Desheng and others naturally know about it.

  Chu Huan nodded slightly, and said, "Yes, the Li family obviously doesn't want to give up the management rights of the Bank of East Asia, so now this matter has reached a deadlock."

   Zheng Yutong said: "Bank of East Asia is second only to HSBC in Xiangjiang, and the main bank of Hang Seng. Naturally, the Li family will not give up so easily!"

  Because Standard Chartered Bank is registered in England and is also listed on the London Stock Exchange, so even though Standard Chartered is the real second bank in Hong Kong, many people still don’t call Standard Chartered Bank a local bank in Hong Kong.

   Li Jiacheng analyzed: "The most difficult thing about this matter is actually not Li Fushu, but those who hide behind the Bank of East Asia and support Li Fushu."

  Chu Huan looked at Li Jiacheng, he thought of going with him.

  Chu Huan's acquisition of the Bank of East Asia, no matter in the view of Chu Huan or others, is of strategic significance rather than practical significance.

  However, the strategic success will increase Chu Huan's development potential in the future.

In North America, Japan has Alder Commercial Bank, Xiangjiang, and Southeast Asia has the Bank of East Asia. At that time, except for Europe, other important economically developed regions in the world will have their own banks. How many bankers are there? I can't get what I want!

  So there will be many people who don't want Chu Huan to get the Bank of East Asia.

  Guo Desheng and Zheng Yutong didn't speak, but it was clear from their expressions that they agreed with Li Jiacheng's words.

   And they all understood who this person was who didn't want Chu Huan to really enter the local banking industry in Xiangjiang.

  HSBC!

   "Right now, what Aku is not afraid of is competition, and we, Aku welcome normal competition in all business environments!"

  Chu Huan naturally knew it too, but judging from the current development of the situation, HSBC must have not formed substantial help to the Li family, which cannot be justified in terms of time.

  So before Chu Huan asked Xu Yi to investigate who supported the Li family financially, but now the battle between the two sides for the Bank of East Asia has officially started, so HSBC is likely to enter the market at some point in the future.

   After chatting with Chu Huan for a while, the three of them left the Huarenhang.

  Chu Huan called He Bingguang to his office.

   "Guo Desheng, Zheng Yutong, and Li Jiacheng are all veterans of the Xiangjiang real estate industry. You have to be careful when you meet them, and don't capsize in the gutter!"

  Chu Huan told He Bingguang.

  He Bingguang nodded seriously: "Understood, I will be very careful."

   After Chu Huan nodded in satisfaction, he continued to ask: "Has the bid for the land on Harbor Road in Wanchai been completed?"

  In this year, the Hong Kong government will launch a piece of land on Harbor Road in Wanchai for auction. This land is also one of the important goals of Zhulu Real Estate this year.

  Wanchai, as an important area in Xiangjiang, has always been a place that Zhulu Real Estate is very concerned about now. In addition, now Zhulu Real Estate has given up residential projects, so it will focus more on the auction of commercial land in Xiangjiang.

He Bingguang said: "It has already been done, but according to our investigation, Luo Yingshi's Great Eagle Real Estate is very interested in this land, and I don't know where the other party has raised a large amount of funds. look."

   Naturally, it is inevitable. In another time and space, Eagle Real Estate took pictures of this land, and then built their Eagle Center!

  Chu Huan slightly raised his eyebrows. The development of Eagle Real Estate in this time and space is not as smooth as in another time and space. Luo Yingshi is not Li Jiacheng. Under Chu Huan's targeting, he can still develop his own company stably.

  But he didn't expect that the other party would get financial support again.

However, this kind of doubt was quickly figured out by Chu Huan. There must be a shadow of HSBC in it. Since Zhulu Real Estate announced the establishment of a real estate project investment department, the real estate developers in Xiangjiang have basically moved closer to Zhulu Real Estate. .

Faced with such a situation, HSBC must react. Xiangjiang is so big. If these real estate companies in Xiangjiang are gathered under the banner of Zhulu Real Estate with the help of the establishment of the real estate project investment department, then when Alder Commercial Bank is established, These resources will definitely be transferred to Alder Commercial Bank, which is not what HSBC wants to see.

  And now Xiangjiang's real estate company is also the industry with the most potential in Xiangjiang, and naturally it is also the industry that HSBC values ​​most.

  Back then, HSBC was able to stand out from the competition with banks such as Standard Chartered and Yili to become the quasi-central bank of Hong Kong, which was a bet on the development of the shipping industry.

   Now they don't want to give up Xiangjiang's real estate industry.

   "Raise the price to 250 million Hong Kong dollars, make sure nothing goes wrong!" Chu Huan preached to He Bingguang.

  In another time and space, Great Eagle Real Estate bought this land at a price of 220 million Hong Kong dollars. Chu Huan was not sure whether Great Eagle Real Estate would provide more funds with the support of HSBC.

The real estate development in Wanchai will be an important development plan for Zhulu Real Estate in the next stage. Now Zhulu Real Estate and Hehe International-Wheelock have enough land reserves in Kowloon, and they only need to make repairs in some places, but Wanchai is different here.

  Although Zhang Yuliang’s family already has a property in Wanchai, it is still not enough for Chu Huan. Therefore, it is necessary to acquire more land here, so that Wanchai can become the presence of Jiaku in Kowloon.

"Understood!" He Bingguang nodded, and then said to Chu Huan: "In addition, we have proposed to Swire Properties to acquire their Du Laozhi Building in Wanchai. Swire Properties has already responded that they are willing to sell it to us at a price of 57 million Hong Kong dollars. !"

   Speaking of Xiangjiang Du Laozhi, basically everyone can think of one of the most famous nightclubs in Xiangjiang, but in fact there is Du Laozhi Road and Du Laozhi Building in Xiangjiang.

  The Du Laozhi Building now belongs to Swire Real Estate. If Chu Huan hadn't appeared, Swire Group would have sold the building to Huaguang Real Estate founded by Zhao Congyan, Zhao Shizeng's father!

   "In addition, Mr. Zhao Congyan from Huaguang Real Estate sent us an inquiry for Li Jing Building, and they want to acquire it!" He Bingguang mentioned Huaguang Real Estate.

   After entering 78 years, although Zhao Congyan did not give up the shipping industry, he also found that the real estate market in Xiangjiang has been rising all the way, so his subsidiary Huaguang Real Estate is also aggressively entering the real estate industry.

  Chu Huan directly waved his hand and said: "Tell them, we Zhulu Real Estate will not sell any commercial buildings under our name!"

  He Bingguang said: "I have already replied to Huaguang Real Estate like this!"

  Chu Huan nodded in satisfaction, and began to ask about the tens of billions of apartment plans.

  Since Jiaku announced the 10 billion apartment plan last year, this incident has caused a huge sensation in Xiangjiang. At the same time, countless people have begun to envy the employees of the company under Jiaku.

  Starting from this year, employees will also start to move into the employee apartments built by Jiaku one after another, the most important of which is the original Huaye City.

  The difficulty for Chu Huan is not buying land to build a building, but the difficulty is not to cause uneven distribution during the implementation process.

He Bingguang also knew what was most important to Chu Huan in this matter, so he said in a somewhat evasive way: "The company has already delineated a few pieces of land, and now it is ready to start construction. As for the company that meets the conditions We have handed over the list of employees who applied for mastership to the Jiaku headquarters."

  Chu Huan looked at Xu Yi.

  Xu Yi replied: "There is a special review department here in Jiaku, which guarantees to be open, fair and just!"

   Only then did Chu Huan smile in satisfaction.

   After He Bingguang left Chu Huan's office, Chu Huan started his daily work, and Cao Yunshang also left the Huarenhang.

  Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Yi suddenly came to Chu Huan's office with a complicated expression.

   "What's the matter?" Seeing Xu Yi's expression, Chu Huan asked with some doubts.

  Xu Yi said to Chu Huan in embarrassment: "Boss, two people came to the company. They said they were Angle's father and brother, and they said they came to ask you for money!"

   Also, Huangshan continues to code words~~
