Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chapter 130 A Feint

After reaching an agreement, Chen Jiajun went to HSBC headquarters early the next morning to complete the transaction and repay all previous loans.

After leaving HSBC, Chen Jiajun took out a document and said, "Ah Zhong, now you will raise your bid for Hutchison Whampoa in my name and join the board of directors."

What you need to do next is acquire a portion of Hutchison Whampoa's shares, while simultaneously securing the support of the vast majority of major shareholders, and strive to become the chairman of the board.

"I understand, boss! This is the restructuring plan I prepared last night. Please take a look."

Zhan Peizhong immediately nodded and handed over a thick stack of documents.

Chen Jiajun took it and started flipping through it, glancing at Zhan Peizhong every now and then, secretly marveling at it.

Zhan Peizhong is a genius. His business talent extends beyond stocks to include business operations.

Zhan Peizhong asked cautiously, "Boss, are you not satisfied with this restructuring business plan? Should I revise it again?"

Chen Jiajun closed the business plan and laughed, "Ah Zhong, my acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa is just for fun; I don't intend to actually operate it."

"what?"

James Chan was terrified. He spent HK$7.1 million to acquire Hutchison Whampoa's shares, just for fun?
Chen Jiajun patted him on the shoulder: "Don't overthink it. Of course, I have my own reasons for acquiring Hutchison Whampoa. What I value most is Hutchison Whampoa's land."

Your plan is excellent! But it goes against my ideas. All you need to do next is drive up Hutchison Whampoa's stock price.

Originally, Chen Jiajun did want to acquire Hutchison Whampoa, but with Li Ka-shing already getting involved, his attempt to acquire Hutchison Whampoa would likely be counterproductive.

Since he values ​​Hutchison Whampoa's land, the most important thing is to get the support of the majority of shareholders and acquire the land.

As for Hutchison Whampoa's other businesses, he didn't value them much!

Although the HK$25 billion he currently controls is an astronomical sum, he still has to be careful with how he spends it.

James Chan kept his boss's words in mind, but then suddenly realized something: "Boss, after driving up the stock price, are you going to sell your Hutchison Whampoa shares to Cheung Kong?"

"Whether we sell to Cheung Kong or to someone else, we will not do business at a loss."

"Before you leave, don't forget to take possession of the land and properties owned by Hutchison Whampoa. If you have any questions, just call me directly."

Don't be afraid. You need to know that I'm standing behind you, and behind me are tens of thousands of brothers who are ready to risk their lives for me at any time.

"That's the kind of audacity you, Zhan Peizhong."

Chen Jiajun held a thick cigar between his fingers, his tone menacing.

Zhan Peizhong carefully considered his boss's words and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He finally understood why Chen Songqing had spent 4 million to buy the shares held by Chen Jiajun.

On the surface, it's Mr. Chen, a kind-hearted citizen!

Secretly, it was Jun, the leader of the Hung Hing triad!

Zhan Peizhong felt a little nervous and swallowed hard: "Boss, I understand. I'll go revise the restructuring plan right away."

"Don't overwork yourself. These two brothers will be responsible for protecting your safety from now on."

Chen Jiajun patted him on the shoulder and arranged for him to be guarded by two young demon slaves.

That afternoon.

At the shareholders' meeting of Hutchison Whampoa, a group of foreign executives, directors, and Li Ka-shing looked at James Tien, who had come to attend the board meeting with two young demon slaves.

James Chan pulled out the documents, adopting an air of wealth, and said, "I am entrusted by Mr. Chen Jiajun to join the board of directors of Hutchison Whampoa on his behalf."

Our boss said there's only one purpose in joining Hutchison Whampoa: to acquire Hutchison Whampoa. If any shareholders want to sell their shares, we guarantee a suitable price.

"Our boss just made a profit of 25 billion from Wharf Holdings! He's got plenty of money!"

"In addition, after the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, we will fully support the management team led by Taipan Wayne to operate Hutchison Whampoa well."

From the outset, Zhan Peizhong made his stance clear, appearing to be determined to take down Hutchison Whampoa, but in reality, it was just a feint.

Hutchison Whampoa's taipan, Wayne Lai, smiled broadly: "Welcome Mr. James to the board of directors!"

"Welcome, welcome!" Li Jiacheng clapped his hands, but his smile was forced.

He had been laying the groundwork for Hutchison Whampoa for a whole year, and now HSBC suddenly sold its shares to Chen Jiajun, who was holding over 2 billion in cash and in such a position, which gave him a headache.

After the board meeting that day, James Chan received many business cards from shareholders of all sizes. He also met with Hutchison Whampoa's taipan, Wayne Lai, and several shareholders who wanted to sell their shares to discuss prices.

When negotiating the price, Zhan Peizhong neither immediately agreed nor immediately refused.

He knew perfectly well that the boss's goal was the land and property.

Since that's the case, Zhan Peizhong wants to acquire these lands and properties at the lowest possible cost to prove his worth to the boss.

……

The presidential suite on the top floor of the Jardine Matheson Hotel.

Lei Gong, wearing a silk nightgown and glasses, was holding a document as he listened to his bodyguard Gao Jie's report.

"Boss, we have delivered the visiting card to the residence of Nie Aotian, the Ghost King of Haojiang."

"Hung Hing's three gaming rooms at the Lisboa Hotel will open the day after tomorrow. I heard that the renovation of these three gaming rooms alone cost 30 million."

"..."

After listening to the report, Lei Gong took off his glasses and rubbed his temples: "Have you made arrangements with Hung Hing yet?"

"I've already spoken with Xiao Hei and asked his cousin Shanji to arrange a time with Boss Jun. I believe we'll get a reply soon." Gao Jie spoke quickly, but his words were clear.

Just as he finished speaking, Lei Gong's driver, Xiao Hei, came in chewing betel nut and said, "Boss, my cousin has called. He said the date is tomorrow, and he's inviting us to Jinbihuihuang..."

“Since we need their help, tell them we’ll treat them. You go book a nightclub right now, but don’t book one in Hung Hing’s territory,” Lei Gong said immediately, raising his head.

Xiao Hei asked, puzzled, "Boss, we're here in Hong Kong..."

"Just go when I tell you to." Lei Gong waved his hand.

"I understand, boss."

After Xiao Hei left.

Lei Gong thought to himself, "Gao Jie, you just said that the renovation of Hung Hing's three gambling halls cost thirty million, right?"

“Yes.” Kao Chieh nodded.

Lei Gong tapped his fingers twice on the table: "Go and prepare 30 million right away. We'll need it tomorrow."

"Yes!" Kao Chieh nodded again.

A refreshing fragrance suddenly wafted into the air.

A woman in a black coat, whose age was impossible to discern, walked into the presidential suite.

With red lips and white teeth, her almond-shaped eyes seemed to speak volumes, her hair cascading over her shoulders, and a black coat that not only failed to conceal her figure but also perfectly accentuated it.

She was stunningly beautiful, with unparalleled charm, like a blooming rose.

She exchanged a glance with Kao Chieh, then quickly looked away, a faint smile on her lips as she softly said, "I'm back."

"Xiao Yao, go to bed early tonight. I have an appointment with Hung Hing tomorrow, and you'll have to show up." Lei Gong smiled, but his tone was very calm.

As people age and reach a certain level of status and position, they long lose interest in women.

Ding Yao was a mistress he had kept, whom he kept as a caged bird. Even after his wife passed away, Lei Gong never made Ding Yao his legal wife.

The reason is simple: Lei Gong has another son, Lei Fuhong, who is studying in the United States.

Lei Fuhong will definitely be the successor of the Sanlian Gang in the future. He doesn't want to be lying on his deathbed with no peace of mind.

"Yes." Ding Yao nodded, stood up, and walked towards her room.
