  ‘Where does Yong’an Group’s funds come from? ’--"True Daily"

   Just seeing this title, Guo Linshan felt a huge shock in her heart, and a bad premonition arose spontaneously.

"After the famous money-burning war in Xiangjiang's retail industry, all retail industries in Xiangjiang have entered a cold wave. As the first group in Xiangjiang to join the money-burning war, Wing On Group has not announced their financial results so far. This is an irresponsible behavior to the shareholders who hold the shares of Wing On Group.

Especially in recent days, the shares of Wing On Group are being sold by mysterious companies in the stock market in large numbers, but what is surprising is that not only mysterious institutions are selling shares of Wing On Group, but also mysterious institutions are taking over shares of Wing On Group. It also caused the share price of Wing On Group to fall, but it was not obvious.

  We don’t know who sold the shares of Wing On Group, but we can make a good analysis of the mysterious organization behind the scenes that took over the shares of Wing On Group.

  To this day, whoever least wants to see the stock price of Yongan Group fall is the shareholders who hold the shares of Yongan Group, the shareholders of Yongan Group, and the Guo family who is the actual controller of Yongan Group!

  Shareholders are just ordinary people. Although they don't want the share price of Wing On Group to fall, they don't have the ability to take over the shares of Wing On Group that have been sold out these days.

  According to statistics, as of today, 12 million shares of Wing On Group have been sold on the market, worth more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars. This is not a price that ordinary shareholders or shareholders of Wing On Group can accept.

  Since they are not from these two parties, there is only one last possibility left. The Guo family is acting as a receiver in order to prevent the stock price of Yongan Group from falling!

   So now comes the problem!

   Where does Wing On Group’s funds come from? As we have just said, all parties involved in the money-burning war in Xiangjiang’s retail industry suffered heavy losses.

   This is especially the case for Wing On Group, which was the first to enter the battlefield.

  Under such circumstances, how did the Guo family mobilize more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars in cash.”

problem occurs!

   Before reading the contents of the newspaper, Guo Linshan had already slumped on the sofa. She never thought that her Yongan Group was so vulnerable.

After meeting with Chu Huan, Guo Linshan had thought about countless possibilities to fight Chu Huan, but he just didn't think of this. Chu Huan would use "True News" to release such a flawed, but very deadly The news came out.

This is actually no wonder Guo Linshan, in fact, there has never been such a situation in the current commercial history of Xiangjiang. In the past, although there were public opinion wars in the Xiangjiang business community, they were all made by both sides, but now they are using public opinion to create momentum , or this kind of almost destructive momentum has never happened before.

Take the public opinion war that broke out when Jardine acquired the Milk Company as an example. At that time, Jardine only used the newspaper media as their publicity channel. Stretch on an outsider's position!

   But now, "Zhenbao", the newspaper with the largest circulation in Xiangjiang, is going to participate in the battle in person. Guo Linshan did not expect such a situation!

"Fourth uncle, we must now find a way to deal with the impact of this report. Once this matter spreads, it will not only cause panic among Xiangjiang stockholders, but more importantly, it will cause panic among depositors of Yongan Bank and policyholders of Yongan Insurance." Panic, if this kind of public opinion is formed, our Wing On Bank may cause a new round of run in Xiangjiang by then!"

   This time, Guo Zhiquan didn't care about addressing Guo Linshan anymore. He must find a way to solve this matter as soon as possible. This is the most important thing.

   "I asked you to prepare the money, are you ready?" Guo Linshan suddenly thought of what she had told Guo Zhiquan to do before.

  Guo Zhi was completely ashamed. Seeing him in such a situation, Guo Linshan already knew the result without him answering.

   "Don't touch this money again, just in case it triggers a run on Wing On Bank." Guo Linshan said loudly.

  Guo Zhiquan asked worriedly: "If you do this, there may be problems with the HKMA?"

  According to Guo Linshan's instructions, they have already violated the regulations of Hong Kong's financial industry by spending the money in Wing On Bank. Now they are taking it back to Wing On Bank in this way, which is a mistake!

"I can't take care of these now. In addition, you should immediately inform the bank that all loans will be stopped and no more loans will be made. Also, let the bank prepare cash. Most importantly, don't let them panic. If they panic in front of the depositors, it's all over!"

  Guo Zhiquan had no choice but to nod and follow Guo Linshan's advice.

   Subsequently, Guo Linshan ordered Guo Linbi to say: "Immediately notify all the newspapers and media in Xiangjiang, saying that we will hold a press conference to clarify the groundless speculation about us by "Zhenbao"!"

   Right after Guo Linbi answered, Guo Zhiquan couldn't help but said: "Fourth Uncle, we can declare that we will sue Zhenbao for defamation!"

Both Guo Linshan and Guo Linbi showed disappointed expressions at this time. The slander is because the other party is wrong, so they can sue the other party, or because they have higher authority than the other party, they can also sue them for defamation without reason, or even Concluding that the other party has no evidence of what they say, with any of these conditions, they can sue the other party for defamation.

   But now Wing On Group, first of all, "Zhen Bao" did not directly explain where the funds of Wing On Group came from, even if everyone knew that "Zhen Bao" said that the Guo family had mobilized the deposits of Wing On Bank in violation of regulations.

This is like the urban-themed web writers of later generations. If the writing is realistic, even if everyone knows who the character you are writing about, they must use homonyms. Although it seems ridiculous, this is what must be done. There are programs.

  Secondly, the Yongan Guo family does have a lot of influence in Xiangjiang, but that depends on who they compare with. Compared with ordinary people, they are naturally no problem, but compared with Chu Huan, it is obviously not enough.

  Finally, the so-called evidence can also be refuted by the first article, that is, at least in name, "True Pao" did not mention their names and said that they used the deposits of Yongan Bank.

  Guo Linbi stood up in disappointment, and said, "I will inform the media in Xiangjiang now."

  Guo Linshan said: "Also notify Li's TV, buy their time in this time slot, and let them broadcast our press conference live!"

Now that the press conference is held, the various explanations at the meeting will definitely consume a lot of time, and then the reporters from the major newspapers will go back to write, print, and typeset the manuscript, and it will be published in the evening paper at the earliest Their statement, this is simply not enough for Yongan Group, where time is life!

  So Guo Linshan must let the citizens of Hong Kong know and believe what they said about Wing On Group in the shortest possible time.

"OK!"

.

   "I didn't expect Yong'an Group to respond so quickly. I thought they were just publishing their own gods in the newspaper, but I didn't expect that they would also invite people from Li's TV!"

  In the villa in the middle of the mountain, Zhu Xiaozhao sat in front of Chu Huan, watching the TV preaching not far away.

   At this time, Li's TV has already started live broadcasting Guo Linshan's press conference.

   "It seems that the Hong Kong media's description of the second generation of the Guo family was still wrong. Guo Linshan's response is indeed fast enough!" Chu Huan also expressed his appreciation, but he didn't care too much.

  It is understandable to think about it. After all, in Chu Huan's view, the outcome of this acquisition is already doomed, and there is no need to make any judgment based on the reaction of the Guo family.

  Zhu Xiaozhao asked: "Brother Huan, do you want Cheng Xi to continue spreading some negative news about Yongan Group tomorrow?"

  At this time, Zhu Xiaozhao had the feeling that Guo Linshan had before, that is, she did not expect that a newspaper report could force Wing On Group to this point.

   Just before the TV news started, people from the Jiaku Investigation Department of each branch of Wing On Bank had already reported the situation to Chu Huan.

  The report of "True Pao" was still effective. Compared with the past, the number of people who went to withdraw money at various branches of Wing On Bank increased compared to the same period of time in the previous two days.

   It’s just that the current situation is not too obvious, just like when Yunhai Group sold the shares of Yong’an Group before. People need a process from doubt to belief.

   This also depends on the long history of Wing On Group in Xiangjiang.

  Chu Huan replied: "Don't worry, as long as Fengwu Securities continues to sell the shares of Wing On Group, this time I will make the Guo family exhausted and unable to take care of it!"

  When Zhu Xiaozhao heard Chu Huan talk about the shares of Yongan Group, he immediately had a question: "The newspaper said that 12 million shares of Yongan Group have been sold in the market. Did we buy so many shares of Yongan Group before?"

  Although Zhu Xiaozhao was approved by Chu Huan to participate in this battle, in fact Chu Huan still didn't tell Zhu Xiaozhao everything, not because he didn't trust Zhu Xiaozhao, but mainly because he didn't want her to be too tired.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Almost, but not all of these stocks were sold by us. In the beginning, we were indeed the only ones who sold the shares of Wing On Group, but as we sold more and more, some investors began to follow us. sold off.

   In addition, 12 million shares is just a statement. I am afraid that only the Guo family knows whether there are these. "

  Hearing Chu Huan's last remarks, Zhu Xiaozhao showed a dumb expression, he didn't expect things to be able to do so.

   "It's just that, according to the shares held by the Guo family in Yongan Group, their shares in Yongan Group should have exceeded 50% at this time, right?"

  Chu Huan nodded and said: "Of course it has exceeded, but this time it doesn't depend on who has the most shares in Wing On Group, who can win, the main thing depends on who can go to the end, but"

   Speaking of this, Chu Huan's eyes fell on Guo Linshan who was talking about the current financial situation of Wing On Group on TV.

   "However, the result of Guo's leaving Wing On Group is already doomed, but they don't know it yet!"

  Zhu Xiaozhao leaned on Chu Huan's body, stroked his belly tenderly, and said, "I understand, what you want is a complete and healthy Yong'an Group, not a riddled Yong'an Group!"

  Chu Huan nodded with a smile and said, "That's right!"

.

   "Steady, accurate, ruthless!"

  Roy Bentley, who was sitting in his office, turned off the TV without watching Guo Linshan's "Ask First" press conference, and gave his own evaluation.

   "Chu Huan is still who Chu Huan is. Even though he has become low-key now, when he wants to accomplish something, his methods are still unpredictable!"

"Yes!" After listening to Roy Bentley's analysis, Shen Bi nodded and said, "Guo Linshan is in the middle of the game, thinking that she can solve the impact of "True News" with a press conference. Idiots are dreaming, the current Yongan Group has become a balloon, as long as someone pokes it lightly, it will completely burst!"

  This time sitting in Roy Bentley's office was not only Shen Bi, but also Pu Weishi.

   "Pu Weishi, you have been following the people of Yunhai Group to complete the acquisition of Xiangjiang Department Store during this period of time. What do you personally think about Yunhai Group's approach in this matter?"

   Roy Bentley asked Pu Weishi.

Pu Weishi replied: "Even without Chu Huan sitting behind Yunhai Group, this is a very difficult company. During this time, they have been negotiating with major department stores in Xiangjiang. I observed that the proposal they proposed The conditions are just a little lower than the acceptance threshold of those department stores, and during the whole negotiation process, Yunhai Group has done all the homework very well. It can be said that those department stores in Xiangjiang have been following the negotiation team of Yunhai Group The rhythm is walking!"

  Roy Bentley and Shen Bi looked at each other, seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.

   "I used to think that Chu Huan had an armory that was scary enough, but now I didn't expect that even the Yunhai Group belonged to Chu Huan, and I don't know how he made the Yunhai Group big!"

Shen Bi sighed helplessly: "I have contacted some friends from other places before, whether it is Japan, Southeast Asia, or other Asian countries, Yunhai Convenience Store is the largest retail group in the local area. It can be said that the entire Asia The retail group of the company has been monopolized by the Yunhai Group!"

  Pu Weishi heard this for the first time, and couldn't help asking: "Is it even the case in countries like the Soviet Union and South Korea?"

   Shen Bi couldn't help but nodded, and said: "That's right, this is the history of Yunhai Group's development that I have collected!"

After finishing speaking, Shen Bi put the materials in his hands on the table, and then said: "The day Yunhai Group was established in Xiangjiang, it seemed that it had already inserted the wings of rapid development. , then Japan, Taiwan Island, Southeast Asia, South Korea, and then some other countries in Asia.

  The Soviet Union you just mentioned is the expansion plan completed by Yunhai Group in the first half of this year. Now they have more than 500 stores in the Soviet Union! "

   "How is this possible?" Pu Weishi couldn't believe it, and said: "The environment in the Soviet Union, their current relationship with China, how could the Soviet Union allow them to enter the market?"

  Shen Bi laughed wryly: "You think it's impossible, and I think it's impossible, but the reality is that it really happened, and it's already been completed. This is something none of us can understand!"

Speaking of this, Shen Bi suddenly laughed at himself, and said: "It's funny to say, Chu Huan has always had a very close relationship with Huaguo, but up to now, Yunhai Convenience Store has never entered Huaguo. Don't you think it's very interesting?"

   Roy Bentley waved his hands and said, "It's not interesting, but scary!"

  Pu Weishi looked at Roy Bentley, his eyes full of desire for knowledge.

Nowadays, both Roy Bentley and Shen Bi have actually regarded Pu Weishi as the future leader of HSBC, so the two did not hide Pu Weishi's previous situation of Chu Shifeng's 100-day banquet. Tell Pu Weishi.

"This is too exaggerated!" Pu Weishi couldn't help sighing again, but then asked: "It's just that, according to what you two said, the business tycoons from all over the world came that day, but they also It has nothing to do with the Soviet Union. In fact, at this time, the relationship between the Soviet Union and North America, or China, is not very good?"

  They only knew the business tycoons who went there at that time, but they didn't know who Chu Huan met secretly.

"That's why I say it's scary. Under this complicated international situation, Chu Huan can actually eat everything. It's impossible for ordinary people to straighten out the relationship, but he can do it." If you feel like a fish in water, such a situation is not scary, what kind of situation is scary?"

  Roy Bentley once again expounded his views on Chu Huan at this time.

   "I still can't accept it!" Pu Weishi shook his head and said, "Don't Chu Huan worry that this situation will bring him backlash? Those countries compete with each other!"

Shen Bi said at this time: "There is nothing difficult to understand. If you carefully study Chu Huan's industrial layout, you can see it. Take the Soviet Union as an example. Chu Huan entered the commercial market of that country in the three major industries of retail, clothing, and games. , Any industry that has nothing to do with technology has not entered.

I even suspect that at some point in the future, Chu Huan will even find a way to infiltrate their energy industry. Don’t forget, according to the news we got in Japan before, Chu Huan has reached a cooperation with Mitsui & Co. We see that the industries Chu Huan is involved in are all light industries.

  But at the beginning of this year, Chu Huan has started his layout in heavy industry, the cooperation with Mitsui & Co. in Japan, and the mining layout in Australia and Canada.

  Even at the beginning, he had an irresistible relationship with Dr. Hammer, an oil tycoon in North America. If Chu Huan had no idea about the oil industry, he wouldn't believe it anyway! "

"It's impossible!" Pu Weishi subconsciously thought that what Shen Bi said was impossible, and then he gave his own reasons: "Even if Chu Huan really has this idea, even if he Jiaku, Yunhai is extremely profitable, but if you want to make a difference in these heavy industries, it is not something that can be solved with a few billion dollars.

   Don't Chu Huan need to spend money in these industries? Don’t forget, just this year, Jiaku’s investment in Xiangjiang has exceeded 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, and his Jiaku still has many important projects under development. How could he have so much money? "

  After speaking, Pu Weishi found that both Shen Bi and Roy Bentley had wry smiles on their faces, and it was Shen Bi who finally preached.

   "Of course we know what you said, but the crux of the matter is, if we knew how Chu Huan accumulated such a huge amount of money, wouldn't we have followed suit?"

This answer made Pu Weishi a little speechless, but in the end he said: "No matter what, I think Chu Huan is walking a tightrope now. Once the international situation changes, he will definitely face the result of choosing one or the other. Such a huge business empire may collapse.

  You should also understand that if Chu Huan's property is really as huge as you said, it is impossible not to be coveted by the local government? "

  As for Pu Weishi's question, this time it was Roy Bentley who answered.

   "We have also thought about what you said, thinking that some places are likely to raise fish, watching Chu Huan's industry grow in their locality, and then harvesting.

   But these questions that we can think of, can't Chu Huan think of them?

But even so, Chu Huan still did these things, so there are only two possibilities. The first is as you said, Chu Huan is walking a tightrope. The second possibility is that Chu Huan still has cards that we don't know about, and these cards are also the reason for Chu Huan to act in this way. "

Shen Bi added: "Personally, I am more inclined to the second possibility, so now neither I nor Roy have given up the idea of ​​being an enemy of Chu Huan, as long as both of us can maintain the current situation and continue to develop If it continues, it will always be good for us at HSBC.

  You have to know that whether it is our HSBC or Chu Huan, we have already set our sights on places other than Xiangjiang. Here, everyone can coexist peacefully and jointly control the rules of the Xiangjiang business community, that’s enough! "

Roy Bentley also smiled and said to Pu Weishi: "The relationship between the two of us and Chu Huan is a bit complicated, and you, Pu Weishi, as the future of HSBC, we both very much hope that you can establish The friendship with Chu Huan came out, because Chu Huan at this time is no longer an existence that we at HSBC can control!"

Pu Weishi sat on the sofa and remained silent for a long time. The news he got today made his brain a little bit unacceptable. Even he knew that there was a gap between HSBC and Jiaku at this time, but in the case of Roy Bentley When the HSBC taipan personally said that the gap between HSBC and Chu Huan was no longer comparable, he was still shocked by the news.

   "How did Chu Huan do this?"

  Pu Weishi can't understand!

   In fact, it is simple and simple, and it is not simple or simple.

  As they said, Chu Huan's current behavior is indeed walking a tightrope, but in Chu Huan's view, this step must be taken.

The development direction of Jiaku cannot always be light industry, and heavy industry must also start, especially after the end of Chu Huan's layout on gold next year, then Chu Huan will have more funds in his hands, which can also make Chu Huan Really involved in the global mining, heavy industry, and high-tech industries.

  The layout in the Soviet Union is actually no different from other places. It is Chu Huan's correct grasp of the international situation and his understanding of the development of various countries in recent years that really enabled Chu Huan to achieve this step.

   It allows Chu Huan to make precise investments, and another thing is that Chu Huan has combined the interests of powerful figures in other countries.

   Just like the cooperation between Chu Huan and Chun Doo-hwan of South Korea.

   "Don't think about these incomprehensible things!" Roy Bentley interrupted Pu Weishi's guess, because these were simply incomprehensible things.

"Now the situation in Xiangjiang is gradually becoming clear. Chu Huan will take over Wing On Group, and then split the department store, bank, insurance and other businesses under Wing On Group, supplementing Yunhai Huan and Jiaku. The Yunhai Group is in charge, and we only need to distribute dividends every year.

  So we should now focus on the acquisition of the Royal Bank of Scotland. "

  Roy Bentley preached calmly. At this time, he has calmly accepted that HSBC is not as good as Chu Huan.

   But this does not hinder Roy Bentley's idea of ​​leading HSBC to continue to develop. Now for HSBC, the matter of Xiangjiang has come to an end, and they should also focus on the acquisition of Royal Bank of Scotland.

  Pu Weishi said: "I will fly to Scotland during this time, and try to make some progress!"

  Pu Weishi is a Scot, and it is more beneficial for HSBC and Scotland to have him represent HSBC to do this.

   This was something they had already discussed, so neither Roy Bentley nor Shen Bi had any opinion on it.

   "After you arrive in Scotland, you still need to observe more. I have thought about the local financial companies in Scotland or England. Not all of Chu Huan's previous suggestions are unacceptable.

  If we were able to acquire a local financial industry company, the problem might be much smaller. "

   Roy Bentley told Pu Weishidao.

  Pu Weishi and Shen Bi both showed surprise on their faces.

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Roy Bentley guessed what they were thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I haven't decided on the matter of changing the register in disguise. This matter is too much for us at HSBC." It's important, and it must be discussed in the long run!"

   Shen Bi and Pu Weishi breathed a sigh of relief after listening.

.

   At the same time, Guo Linshan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

  With the end of Guo Linshan's press conference, the number of people withdrawing money at Wing On Bank has relatively decreased.

  In the lobby of each branch of Wing On Bank, there are TVs playing Guo Linshan's press conference.

  However, what Guo Linshan didn't expect was that there was a bigger crisis waiting for them!

   Thank you everyone, the typo is corrected first and then corrected~
