Reborn as a Hong Kong Tycoon

Chapter 140

Huo Yingdong's influence in Xiangjiang is undoubted, especially in the Chinese businessmen. He is surrounded by many people. Lin Baicheng knows these people and they are all well-known figures in the Xiangjiang business circle. It can be said that he is the center of the party.

"Brother Huo!"

Bao Yugang and Lin Baicheng walked over.

"Brother Bao, we are talking about you competing with Jardine for Wharf."

Huo Yingdong first said hello to Bao Yugang, then looked at Lin Baicheng, stretched out his hand and said: "Lin Sheng, long time no see, I didn't expect your career to develop so fast in just a few months. It’s not.” The last time the two met at a charity gala, Lin Baicheng was just the boss of Xinghe Game Company, and not many people knew about this company. Now he is not only the boss of Asia TV, but also with Remember the controller of Huangpu, a large company.

"My business can develop so fast. I would like to thank Bao Sheng for his help. He helped me to buy the shares of Hutchison Whampoa from HSBC."

Lin Baicheng said modestly, while shaking hands with Huo Yingdong, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the status of a person is higher, and the treatment is different.When he met the other party last time, the other party didn't take the initiative to shake hands with him, and he only said the word 'Hello' when talking to him.

It's not that Huo Yingdong is arrogant or arrogant. With his status, people who have not reached a certain status naturally cannot catch his eyes.

Just like the current Lin Baicheng, if he faces a small boss with a net worth of several million or tens of millions, he will have the same attitude as Huo Yingdong, after all, everyone is not in the same circle.

"Lin Sheng, you are being polite. My favor is not in vain. Didn't you sell all the shares in Wharf to me?"

Bao Yugang said with a smile, he knew that what Lin Baicheng said was just polite words, that time the two of them were a deal between you and me, and no one owed anyone any favors.

"There is still such a thing."

After Huo Yingdong heard the words and thought about it for a while, he had a rough guess.The Wharf shares that Lin Baicheng sold to Bao Yugang should be quite a lot, otherwise Bao Yugang would not help, but before that, Lin Baicheng's target may also be Wharf, but he later transferred his target to Hutchison Whampoa. That's why Lin Bao and the two reached an agreement, and it should be like this if there is no accident.

This kind of thing is not difficult to guess, not only Huo Yingdong, but also other people around him have guessed.

"Bao Sheng, Wharf's stock price has risen to just over 30 Hong Kong dollars. If you continue to compete with Jardine Mathematics, you still don't know how much you will have to pay. I think you need to talk to Jardine Mathematics."

Li Zhaoji said aloud that he hadn't paid much attention to the Wharf company before, but after the outbreak of the Wharf takeover battle, of course he noticed and asked people to investigate the company.The large amount of land in the hands of this company made him a little envious, especially these lands are still in prosperous prime locations, but it is a pity that Bao Yugang has already acquired them, and even if he wants to participate, he does not have that much capital, so he can only Watching eagerly.

Guo Desheng also said: "Now it is already 30 Hong Kong dollars a share, and it will definitely rise to 40 Hong Kong dollars a share in the next year, or even a higher 50 Hong Kong dollars a share. It is not impossible. Buying at that time will not only save you I can’t bear it, and I don’t think Jardine can’t bear it either, so it’s still necessary to talk.”

"Well, in fact, this acquisition has come to an end for the time being."

After hearing the words of several people, Bao Yugang shook his head helplessly: "Niu Bijian has already found HSBC's Taipan Shen and asked Taiban Shen to make peace with him. The two parties have reached an agreement that we will not increase our shareholding in the short term."

Bao Yugang definitely wants to give Shen Congee face, because he has a deep cooperation with HSBC.Besides, to put it bluntly, if Bao Yugang didn't show face and Shen Congee supported Jardine in a fit of anger and gave Jardine a large loan, how could Bao Yugang compete with Jardine?

"From this point of view, Wharf's share price is about to fall."

Feng Jinxi said aloud, thinking in his heart that he would sell the Wharf stocks in the company's hands immediately tomorrow.The stock price of Wharf was originally more than 12 Hong Kong dollars, but due to the outbreak of the takeover war, it skyrocketed to as much as 30 Hong Kong dollars, an increase of 150%. Now that the takeover war is suspended, the stock price will inevitably fall sharply, which is beyond doubt.

Huo Yingdong nodded in agreement and said: "This is inevitable. The market value of Wharf before the acquisition was only about 11 billion Hong Kong dollars, but now it is higher than the market value of Hutchison Whampoa, reaching as much as 27 billion Hong Kong dollars. This is all because of Brother Bao. Because of the competition with Jardine Matheson, now that the two of them no longer increase their holdings, the stock price will naturally plummet."

That's right, the market value of Wharf is indeed a little higher than that of Hutchison Whampoa, because the current stock price of Hutchison Whampoa is below 7 Hong Kong dollars. The rise in the stock price is only to stop the decline in the stock price.The reports he made in the newspapers really became a fact, and a large number of shareholders are not optimistic about the company's prospects after he takes over Hutchison Whampoa.

Lin Baicheng doesn't care about this, anyway, he will continue to increase his holdings, and the drop in stock prices is also conducive to his actions to increase holdings, increasing his holdings to a sufficient number of shares at a lower cost.

"I really envy you, Lin Sheng. You became the largest shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa with ease. The Qi Dezun family didn't even have a chance to react."

Bao Yugang is really envious of Lin Baicheng. Only part of the shares were purchased at a premium of 20%. He easily obtained the control of Hutchison Whampoa. It seems that he paid such a high price, but still did not get it. To gain control of Wharf, you can only temporarily become the director and major shareholder of Wharf.

"Lin Sheng's move in the newspaper is really beautiful."

Lin Baicheng bought a large number of Hutchison Whampoa stocks on the day of a large number of newspaper reports, and now anyone with a discerning eye can see what is going on, and no one present does not know.

Feng Jinxi said: "However, if Hutchison Whampoa does not benefit in a short period of time, it will be difficult for the stock price to rise, and there will be gains and losses."

"Yes, and even though I won Hutchison Whampoa, I owe a lot of debt now. If Hutchison Whampoa doesn't develop well, then I will be miserable."

Lin Baicheng sold himself miserably, lest anyone would be jealous, and there would be a few more opponents for no reason.

But Lin Baicheng is very clear that if he wants Hutchison Whampoa to vigorously develop the real estate industry, he will definitely compete with real estate developers such as Li Zhaoji, Zheng Yutong, Xu Shixun, Guo Desheng, etc. Therefore, it is impossible to have no opponents. Try to avoid public outrage.

This kind of gathering is mainly to chat, talk about their respective business development, try to avoid malicious competition with other people, and try to find British companies to compete with if they want to compete.
