Chapter 753 Jardine, Landmark Acquisition · The whole city is crazy (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  "Hua Ren Real Estate hereby declares that it is necessary for the development of the group. After the meeting of the board of directors of Hua Ren Real Estate, the group officially announced that it will acquire Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson Group today.

  According to the research of the board of directors of the group, it is believed that the stock prices presented by the two groups of Jardine and Landmark at this time cannot reflect the real asset value of these two groups at all.

  Therefore, the Group decided to purchase 87.74 million additional Jardine shares at a price of HK$100 per share, and an additional 258 million shares of Landmark at a price of HK$75 per share!

  The amount involved in this acquisition is as high as 28.12 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the relevant additional purchase procedures will be entrusted to Fengwu Securities! "

The acquisition cost this time is more than a billion Hong Kong dollars more than the 26.605 billion Hong Kong dollars estimated by Chu Huan and the others before. And, landed cash.

   But after all, they hold more shares than Jiaku, which means that Chu Huan must use a thunderous blow to quickly settle this matter.

   In this way, Chu Huan has more energy to deal with political factors other than the commercial acquisition.

  Everyone who read the news was dumbfounded. The Wharf takeover battle has not yet been officially announced to be over. As a result, Jiaku has now announced that it will acquire the two consortiums Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land!

  This is Jardine and Landmark!

  Jardines, once the head of the four major consortiums in Xiangjiang, is now one of the three major consortia in Xiangjiang!

  Landmark is known as the brightest jewel in the crown of the Xiangjiang real estate industry, the land king of Xiangjiang Central!

Jardine has been in a dominant position in Hong Kong for nearly 100 years. Even if Pao bought Wharf before, some people think that if Bao can successfully acquire Wharf, there will be a company to buy the land. interest, but when this thing really happened in front of me.

   Still no one dared to believe that this incident really happened in front of them, and then think of the Wharf acquisition battle that has not yet ended.

  Everyone is dreamlike!

   Bang Dang!

   Bao Yugang, who was sitting at the dining table, dropped the spoon in his hand to the table, but he didn't notice it. At this moment, Bao Yugang was staring at the newspaper on the dining table.

   Rao, Bao Yugang, who has experienced a lot of wind and rain, was also full of disbelief when he saw the news.

  Chu Huan's goal turned out to be Landmark and Jardine?

   Just before Bao Yugang knew how to express his shock at this incident, Wu Guangzheng rushed to the restaurant. Wu Guangzheng and his wife did not live with Bao Yugang.

  Wu Guangzheng held a copy of "True Pao" in his hand, and went straight to Bao Yugang's side, shouting loudly.

   "Daddy, from the news I just saw, China Land officially announced that it will acquire Jardine and Landmark!"

"Sit!" Although Bao Yugang was still greatly shocked in his heart, he still maintained his stability, pointed to the seat beside him, and said: "It seems that this is the real reason why Chu Huan suddenly disappeared. Yes, he is indeed paralyzing Henry Keswick, but not because of our acquisition of Wharf, but because Chu Huan has already decided to acquire Jardine and Landmark!"

"He really dared to do this!" Wu Guangzheng couldn't do what Bao Yugang did, but he was able to maintain a basic calm in this matter, but he said excitedly: "This involves 28.12 billion Hong Kong dollars. , Where did Chu Huan get so much money? When he lent us the money before, didn't he say that he didn't have enough cash?"

"Hehe!" Bao Yugang smiled bitterly, and said, "At this point, do you still think that Chu Huan lent us money because he didn't have enough cash? This is simply a strategy of Chu Huan. He wants to create a An atmosphere of not having enough funds in their hands, because only in this way, Henry Keswick will not think that Chu Huan wants to take action against their lifeblood at this time!"

  Wu Guangzheng murmured: "Now, Chu Huan really broke Xiangjiang's sky!"

  Afterwards, Wu Guangzheng looked at Bao Yugang and asked, "Daddy, I have an idea now."

  Bao Yugang asked, "What do you think?"

Wu Guangzheng analyzed: "The acquisition of Jardine and Hongkong Land must be something that Chu Huan has planned for a long time, but this matter must require a long-term plan, and the most important point is to get rid of the Keswick family as much as possible. The cash flow was exhausted, and before that, the place where the Keswick family used the most funds was to compete with us for Wharf.

  I suspect that before this, the mysterious funds from Japan were most likely mobilized by Chu Huan! "

Bao Yugang smiled wryly again. Wu Guangzheng had already guessed this matter without Wu Guangzheng's analysis. After the wry smile, Bao Yugang told Wu Guangzheng: "We just need to know about this matter. When we see Chu Huan in the future, don't worry about it." Don't say it, there is no right or wrong in this matter, you have to understand, if we put us in Chu Huan's perspective, we will do the same!"

  Wu Guangzheng nodded. He understood what Bao Yugang meant, but being kept in the dark like this made people feel bad.

   But it was only a temporary dissatisfaction, as Bao Yugang said, this kind of thing would be done by anyone!

"This time the Keswick family is afraid that they are in danger. They have just invested all their funds in the matter of competing with us for Wharf. Although they have obtained some funds through the transaction with us, most of their funds are at this time. Before finding a way to get them back, Chu Huan has already launched the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land, and they have no way to resist Chu Huan's acquisition!"

  Bao Yugang nodded, but still said worriedly: "If only business factors are considered, the Keswick family will lose this time, but if there are other factors other than business, it will be hard to say!"

  Wu Guangzheng was stunned for a moment, and then understood Bao Yugang's meaning, "Daddy, do you mean that the Hong Kong government and even the British side will intervene in this matter?"

Bao Yugang nodded and said: "This is very likely. After all, Jardine is the face of the British consortium in Xiangjiang. Now Yinglun and his hometown have been fighting secretly because of the ownership of Xiangjiang. Chu Huan wants to get Jardine. Landing is not that easy!"

  Wu Guangzheng said: "However, Chu Huan dares to announce the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Landmark in such a straightforward manner, which shows that he must have a countermeasure!"

  Bao Yugang smiled bitterly, and said: "I don't know, now I really can't see through A Huan's thoughts."

  Wu Guangzheng was sitting there, feeling a little complicated, thinking that he was still excited about their acquisition of Wharf yesterday, but today Chu Huan announced the acquisition of the largest British consortium in Xiangjiang.

   Comparing the hatchback, my side seems a bit unsatisfactory!

   No matter in terms of acquisition scale or capital!

Bao Yugang got up at this time and said to Wu Guangzheng: "Okay, this matter is A Huan's own matter after all, the most important thing for us now is to solve our own matter first, although we have already completed the settlement of Wharf. Acquisition, but there is still a lot of finishing work to be done now!"

Wu Guangzheng also put away the shock in his heart. As Bao Yugang said, no matter how shocked Chu Huan was when he bought Jardine and Landmark, it was the other party's business, and they themselves had their own concerns. The more important thing is to complete the final battle for the acquisition of Wharf.

  But Bao Yugang, who got up and was about to leave, suddenly said to Wu Guangzheng: "By the way, according to our estimation, the acquisition of Wharf will be completed this morning. Then you help me make an appointment with the Governor of Hong Kong, MacLehose!"

  Wu Guangzheng was a little curious about his father-in-law's behavior, and asked, "Daddy, we have already completed the acquisition of Wharf, why do we still have to meet MacLehose?"

Bao Yugang said calmly: "No matter what, A Huan has always helped us a lot in the successful acquisition of Wharf. We should also help him at this time. After the acquisition of Wharf is over, there must be some There are a lot of things to deal with, I have no way to leave Xiangjiang, London can't help much, so I can only contribute to Xiangjiang!"

  In addition, Henry Keswick sold some of their Wharf stocks to Bao Yugang yesterday. When Bao Yugang asked Chu Huan about this matter, Chu Huan also expressed his agreement.

   This alone made Bao Yugang very admired. After all, such a transaction would allow Henry Keswick to have more funds!

  Wu Guangzheng has no opinion on Bao Yugang's decision. After all, if Chu Huan really successfully completes the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Landmark, then from now on, the Xiangjiang business community will really enter Chu Huan's era.

"Understood!"

.

   "It turns out that what A Huan was thinking about is this, I finally understand!"

  Huo Tsar's hearty laughter came from the living room of Huo's ancestral home. At this time, he was holding a copy of "True News".

   "Master, breakfast is ready!" The servant at home walked up to Emperor Huo Tsar and reported.

   Huo Tsar waved his hands with a smile on his face and said: "I'll talk about it later, call Ah Ting and ask him to come back. Forget it, I'll call myself!"

   After finishing speaking, Emperor Huo Tsar personally dialed the phone number of Huo Zhenting's residence. After a while, Huo Zhenting answered the phone, and there was still a sleepy tone in his voice.

   "Daddy, what's the matter? Has Bao Yugang completed the acquisition of Wharf?"

   Obviously, Huo Zhenting thought that Huo Tsar called him so early to talk about this matter.

   "Get up from your bed immediately and come to me with "True Paper!"

   Huo Tsar is a little dissatisfied with Huo Zhenting's current situation. Chu Huan has already started the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark, and his son is still lying in bed, which makes Huo Tsar very dissatisfied!

  Hearing Li's busy tone on the phone, Huo Zhenting was speechless for a while, not knowing what happened to make his father so excited.

"What's wrong?"

   Zhu Lingling, who was lying next to Huo Zhenting, also opened her eyes at this time, and asked Huo Zhenting curiously.

  Huo Zhenting shook his head, and said puzzledly: "I don't know, Daddy told me to buy a copy of "True Pao" and go home quickly, it seems that something big happened!"

  Hearing what Huo Zhenting said, Zhu Lingling nodded and didn't ask any further questions. She now fully understands her situation in Huo's house.

  Work hard to carry on the family line of the Huo family, accompany Huo Zhenting to attend various activities on weekdays, and make a good image of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Guo family.

  Huo Zhenting thought of his father's explanation, he didn't take a bath either, he simply brushed his teeth, washed his face, and then hurried out of the house.

  When he was at the newsstand by the road and saw everyone standing there as if frozen, looking at the newspapers in their hands, Huo Zhenting knew that something must have happened.

   Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately took the money to buy a copy of "True Daily", but was told by the newsstand owner that he could not buy it.

   Helpless, Huo Zhenting had no choice but to sell a copy of "Daily Daily", and then he saw the same headline on the front page of "Daily Daily" as "Zhenbao".

   Then, Huo Zhenting, like other readers, stood there and was frozen.

  However, Huo Zhenting's psychological quality is much stronger than that of ordinary ordinary readers. After a short period of sluggishness, Huo Zhenting immediately got into his car and drove towards Huo's old house.

   "Daddy, Daddy!"

  After arriving at the old house, Huo Zhenting found his father impatiently, and at this time Huo Tsar did not reprimand him for his panic.

"This is real?"

   Huo Zhenting held the newspaper in his hand, and asked his father eagerly, even though he knew that Chu Huan had already declared this matter through the newspaper, it couldn't be false, but he still wanted to confirm it again in Huo Tsar's mouth!

   Emperor Huo Tsar nodded and said, "This is no longer a fake."

   Huo Zhenting said at the first time: "But if this is the case, the Hong Kong government will definitely not stand by. Jardine, the land is of great significance to them."

Huo Tsar said: "You have thought of it, I believe other people who read the news have also thought of it, and A Huan must have thought of it too, but even so, he still did it, I think he must be responsible for this matter Already have a comprehensive idea!"

   Huo Zhenting looked at Huo Tsar with some hope and asked: "Daddy, have you called A Huan?"

   Huo Tsar shook his head and said: "No, it is not so important to call A Huan at this time, what is more important is how to help A Huan solve the problem in Xiangjiang!"

Huo Tsar has been in Xiangjiang for decades. Although he was targeted by the Hong Kong government many times during this period, it is precisely because of this kind of targeting that Huo Tsar understands that his influence in Xiangjiang's political circle is weak, so even Huo Tsar's dozen or so In 2010, he had started to keep a low profile, but in fact Huo Tsar still managed some of his own relations with the Hong Kong government!

Huo Tsar took out a piece of paper from his jacket pocket, handed it to Huo Zhenting, and then said: "These people are more or less related to our family's business, you go to contact them, tell them, just say I mean, I don't ask them to do anything for A Huan in this matter, but at least they can't be a hindrance to this matter!"

Huo Zhenting was shocked by Huo Tsar's actions. Huo Zhenting naturally knew that Huo Tsar had his own network in the Hong Kong government, but this kind of network was definitely used less and less. Now Huo Tsar has not contacted Chu Huan. , has already decided to use their family's contacts in the Hong Kong government.

   Such a move.

   "Daddy, should we call A Huan? I believe he must have his own plan. If we act rashly at this time, what if we mess up A Huan's plan?"

  Huo Tsar waved his hand and said: "It won't be disturbed. Only the greater the influence of this kind of thing, can the Hong Kong government be forced to obey. Otherwise, if they really cut the policy first, then it will be too late."

   Huo Zhenting still hesitated.

   Seeing this, Emperor Huo Tsar glared at Huo Zhenting, and said: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up!"

  Huo Zhenting didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly got up to do this matter.

Looking at the back of Huo Zhenting leaving, Huo Tsar shook his head slightly, he was still too young to see the essence of the matter, as long as Chu Huan completed the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark, then Chu Huan's official position in the Xiangjiang business community Now that he is on the throne, whether it is the Hong Kong government or England, even if Xiangjiang returns in the future, Chu Huan's status in Xiangjiang will not change again.

Huo Tsar understands his situation. Now because of his own existence, his hometown takes great care of their Huo family. But in the future, even after a hundred years, his hometown will still think about these actions and treat the Huo family with great care. They have taken good care of them, but if they want the Huo family to maintain a detached position in Xiangjiang, then the relationship between them and Chu Huan can only be closer!

  Especially now, if Chu Huan completes the acquisition of Jardine and Hongkong Land, then the entire Jiaku department will actually be the biggest help in stabilizing the order in Xiangjiang in the future! .

   Li Jiacheng was sitting in the car, and the car was slowly driving towards the headquarters of Changshi. There was a copy of today's "True News" next to Li Jiacheng's seat.

  Huaren Real Estate announced the acquisition of Jardine, and the statement of Hongkong Land was impressive.

   In fact, Li Jiacheng had already read the contents of the newspaper while eating breakfast, but he still couldn't help but bring the newspaper with him.

  In the entire Xiangjiang River, Li Jiacheng is probably the only one who has guessed Chu Huan's thoughts. Although other people have some vague ideas, they are not as sure as Li Jiacheng.

   But even so, after seeing the news today, Li Jiacheng was extremely shocked.

   "I didn't expect Chu Huan to really do it!"

  Li Jiacheng has to admit that the timing of Chu Huan's attack is really good. It can be said that this is the time when the strength of the Keswick family is the weakest.

In fact, everyone is paying attention to the front page headline of "True Pao" today, which makes many people overlook one thing, that is, on the headline of "True Pao"'s supplement, Bao's statement.

  They completed the acquisition plan of Wharf last night.

"Pao's completion of the acquisition plan of Wharf must have bought a part of Wharf's stock from Henry Keswick, but this amount of money must not be enough to make up for Henry Keswick and Chu Huan's competition for Jardine and Landmark. The gap in this battle.

  In order to acquire shares in Wharf, Henry Keswick has already borrowed all the institutions around him that can borrow money. Now he must not be able to turn over how much money?

   No, Henry Keswick dared to buy Wharf shares in such a large amount before, which means that he will definitely have a certain amount of money in the account later?

   But this is still not enough. The size of Wharf is not comparable to that of Jardine and Landmark. That is to say, no matter how you think about it, Henry Keswick cannot beat Chu Huan from a commercial point of view! "

  Li Jiacheng picked up the "Zhenbao" beside him again, and read the content on it word by word.

   To put it bluntly, Li Jiacheng was full of jealousy and envy at this time.

  No businessman in Xiangjiang can refuse the possibility of acquiring Jardine Matheson and Landmark.

   But before that, all of them could only think about it, but now Chu Huan has already started to act.

   "Chairman!"

  Li Jiacheng, who had just got off the car, saw his right-hand men, Sheng Songsheng and Zhou Qianhe.

   In the hands of both of them, they also held a copy of "True Paper".

   "You two know?"

   Li Jiacheng asked.

The two nodded, Sheng Songsheng exclaimed: "I didn't expect that Chu Huan would actually buy Jardine and Landmark, and also spent 28.12 billion Hong Kong dollars. According to the announcement, if the Keswick family wants to compete with Chu Huan for the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark For control, they have to use at least 21 billion Hong Kong dollars, even if they sell Keswick now, they can't raise so much money!"

  Li Jiacheng waved his hand and said: "Now this acquisition is no longer a commercial acquisition, and its decisive factors are outside of business."

  Sheng Songsheng, Zhou Qian and the two, as the first two generals in Li Jiacheng's business team, naturally understood what Li Jiacheng meant.

  Zhou Qianhe couldn't help asking: "Chu Huan is so confident, can he win the Keswick family?"

"We don't know Chu Huan's true strength, but we all believe in Chu Huan's strength. In such a sensational acquisition, Chu Huan dared to take the lead in fighting, which shows that he must have a complete countermeasure. This time the acquisition I’m afraid it’s really going to change Xiangjiang’s sky!”

  Li Jiacheng led the two of them to the elevator, but there was still shock in his eyes.

  Sheng Songsheng, Zhou Qian and the two also looked at each other in blank dismay. It was no surprise that they would be so surprised. Jardine, the pressure that Landmark has brought to the Xiangjiang business community is really too great.

   "Chairman, do you think HSBC will support the Keswick family at this time?"

   Sheng Songsheng couldn't help asking.

   Now in Xiangjiang, the only thing they can think of that may help the Keswick family avoid this acquisition is HSBC!

Li Jiacheng shook his head and said, "It's difficult. It's not one billion, two billion Hong Kong dollars. HSBC can get it out with hard work. This is more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash. If this money falls on HSBC, HSBC can't bear it." Yes, so in the end, only political factors can solve this matter for the Keswick family, and business factors have no power to resist Chu Huan!"

Zhou Qianhe shook his head and said: "This is too exaggerated. Although everyone knows that Chu Huan has been coveting Jardine Land and Landmark, but now he buys it himself, even if I have read the newspaper, I have no way to confirm it 100% !"

  Sheng Songsheng asked Li Jiacheng tentatively: "Chairman, do you want to call Chu Huan and ask him personally?"

  Li Jiacheng took off his coat, put it on the hanger in his office, and said with a smile, "This is not the time for us to call Chu Huan."

  Zhou Qianhe asked: "Even if Chu Huan can't get it, his secretary Xu Yi will definitely be able to get it!"

Li Jiacheng waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant. The reason why I didn't call Chu Huan is that we have no reason to call Chu Huan at this time, because we can't really help Chu Huan with this matter, and Chu Huan Maybe he doesn’t need help at this time, but what’s more, he doesn’t need to receive inquiries from us at this time.”

   Speaking of which, Li Jiacheng sat in his seat and said, "Whether it's a call of congratulations or a call of comfort, we have to wait until this matter is over before we call Chu Huan again!"

  Sheng Songwen asked: "Then shall we do nothing now?"

Li Jiacheng said: "Of course we have to do it. You go to your own affairs first. I have to make a few phone calls. Although we can't provide any help for Chu Huan in terms of decisive factors, some corners You can still do things with horns!"

Li Jiacheng is a long-sleeved and good dancer. Although he has said many times in later generations that business should stay away from politics, in fact, Li Jiacheng has very good political contacts no matter in Xiangjiang or his hometown. Otherwise, he would not be able to survive every big storm. In the process, he retreated completely, and even made a lot of money.

   Now, like Huo Tsar, he is also planning to lend his relationship with the Hong Kong government to Chu Huan.

  At the same time, he also understood that even if he didn't say anything about it, Chu Huan would definitely know about it in the end.

  In fact, there are not a few people who have the same actions as Huo Tsar, Li Jiacheng, and Bao Yugang.

  Sun Hung Kai's Guo Desheng.

   Zheng Yutong from New World.

  Jian Yueqiang retired at home.

  Dong Haoyun of Eastern Shipping.

While these people were on the phone, Chu Huan came to the Chinese Bank on time as usual. As for the journalists from Xiangjiang who were already crazy, they had already surrounded the gate of the Chinese Bank at this time. The water leaked out, and everyone was stimulated by the news.

  They wanted to get a specific answer from Chu Huan immediately, but they were obviously disappointed.

  Chu Huan came directly to the underground parking lot of Huarenhang in a car, and took the elevator in the underground parking lot to his office.

  Wen Mingzhang from Huaren Real Estate was already waiting for Chu Huan at the door of Chu Huan's office. Seeing Chu Huan coming, he immediately stepped forward.

   "Chairman, regarding the interview at noon today, I think you should come forward in person?"

  The big news of China Land’s acquisition of Jardine Land cannot be solved by just publishing it in newspapers, so Chu Huan also arranged TVB’s live interview with Wen Mingzhang in order to reaffirm the determination of China Land Group to acquire Jardine Land Land.

  Chu Huan smiled and looked at Wen Mingzhang, and said: "You are asked to do this matter, you just do it, and even if I want to accept an exclusive interview, I am afraid I don't have the time!"

  This matter will definitely alarm the Hong Kong government, and the Hong Kong government will definitely make an appointment with Chu Huan as soon as possible.

  So dealing with the outside world can only be done by Wen Mingzhang of Huaren Real Estate!

   That is, after Chu Huan finished speaking with Wen Mingzhang, the phone on his desk rang, and the Hong Kong Governor’s Mansion called

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