In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

In the following days, the rate of increase in Aigo's stock market value finally slowed down, and finally stabilized at a total market value of around HK$20 billion.

This total market value already ranks it over 30th among Hong Kong listed companies today.

For this reason, Liu Luanxiong, the newly appointed chairman of a listed company, naturally enjoyed great fame and was frequently interviewed.

After raising 200 million Hong Kong dollars, Liu Luanxiong discussed with Lin Haoran and decided to move into the manufacturing industry in a big way, no longer limiting themselves to the production of fans and other products.

In addition, we will continue to expand our scale and thoroughly establish the Aimego brand.

Lin Haoran directly supported Liu Luanxiong's radical ideas.

Because he didn't plan to continue holding shares in Aigo for too long.

Today, it is beyond his expectation that the market value of Aigo has stabilized at around HK$20 billion.

This was already much better than he had imagined.

According to his previous idea, he would be satisfied if the market value of Aigo reached more than 1 billion.

For example, the current market value is around HK$20 billion, which means that the 8 million shares of Aigo he holds are worth HK$ million!
Two years ago, he only invested HK$1.2 million.

Over the past two years, the dividends he received from Aigo have reached a terrifying amount of more than 300 million Hong Kong dollars.

Not to mention, the shares he holds today are worth HK$8 million.

The next thing he had to do was to find a suitable buyer to sell the shares of Aimego!

After all, if nothing unexpected happens next summer, Aigo's profits will definitely drop significantly.

By then, when the profit of Aigo Company is only two to three million Hong Kong dollars a month, the market value of 20 billion Hong Kong dollars will not be able to be maintained. By then, it will be completely normal for the market value to drop to several hundred million Hong Kong dollars.

Of course, it is not easy to find such a buyer. After all, it would cost a lot of money to buy his shares.

However, he was not in a hurry about this matter.

At least, there is no rush this year.

If it doesn't work, he will slowly take action in the stock market, but this is more difficult.

In this era, there are not too many restrictions on shareholders cashing out. In addition, Lin Haoran is not the head of Aimego Company, so there is no problem for him to cash out.

Before the listing, Lin Haoran had talked with Liu Luanxiong. At that time, Liu Luanxiong hoped that he could serve as the company's vice chairman, but Lin Haoran had no interest. He finally only wanted the position of a director.

After all, he was planning to sell his shares in Aigo, so there was no point in fighting for the position.

Even now, if he wants to snatch Liu Luanxiong's position, it is not impossible.

Like Liu Luanxiong, he each holds 40 million shares of Aigo.

After all, Liu Luanxiong is still a newcomer to the capital market and does not have much precautions against these things.

If Lin Haoran really wanted to seize the controlling rights of Aimego, he only needed to secretly absorb a portion of the shares in the stock market, which would be enough to surpass Liu Luanxiong and seize the controlling rights.

It’s just that he has no interest in Aigo Company. Why is he still fighting for the controlling rights when it is already being sold? Why is he fighting for the controlling rights?

It would be better to think about how to sell your shares at the current market value.

However, Lin Haoran holds too many stocks. If he sells them in the secondary market too quickly, the stock price may be lowered, affecting the market value of Aigo.

Therefore, it would be best to find someone who is interested in Aigo's shares.

Lin Haoran guessed that if the news was released, someone would be interested, right?

However, it is indeed inappropriate to transfer shares in a hurry now that the company has just gone public.

So, it’s best to find a suitable opportunity.

It's September now, so there's no need to be too anxious.

Now that Aimego has been successfully listed and has exceeded his expectations, the next matter regarding Aimego can be put aside.

Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it was September 9th.

In the morning, Lin Haoran woke up from bed, with Guan Jiahui lying next to him.

Her father Guan Shan was on a business trip again, and yesterday was a special holiday - Mid-Autumn Festival, so she took the initiative to come over and spent a very passionate holiday with Lin Haoran.

Lin's father and mother went to Southeast Asia for vacation, so even during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he did not go back to his villa in Deep Water Bay.

It is naturally a good life if there is someone who can help him release his energy occasionally.

After breakfast, Lin Haoran first asked Li Weidong to drive her back to school.

There was nothing to do today, so he was in no hurry to go out.

Aigo has been listed for more than ten days, and its share price has risen to about HK$21 billion, but it occasionally falls. After all, it is still in the bull market stage, and Liu Luanxiong accepts exclusive interviews from time to time, constantly revealing his grand plans, so even if the share price is at a high level, there is still room for growth.

The entire market is rising, and it is impossible for a listed company like Aigo, which is very popular, to fall sharply.

Apart from anything else, the share price of Hong Kong Electric Group has already risen to nearly HK$5 billion.

The market capitalization of China Gas Company and Kowloon Motor Bus also exceeds HK$2 billion, which is even much higher than that of Aigo.

Among them, the stock market value of China Gas Company has reached about HK$26 billion.

Kowloon Motor Bus also reached around HK$24 billion.

All three companies are among the top 30 in the total market capitalization ranking of Hong Kong listed companies.

The company Aigo can also be ranked between 31st and 35th, and the ranking list often changes due to the influence of stock prices.

Looking at the time, it was nine o'clock in the morning. Just when Lin Haoran thought that there would be nothing to do this morning and was planning to have lunch at home before going out, Su Zhixue called.

As soon as the call was connected, Su Zhixue said directly on the other end of the phone: "Boss, this is bad, our acquisition of shares of the Landmark Group has been exposed!"

"What's going on? Tell me in detail." Lin Haoran asked puzzledly.

Logically speaking, their confidentiality work was pretty good. In the past year or so, there had not been any leaks at Huanyu Investment Company. How could their actions have been leaked?
"Just now, I learned that today's Hong Kong Times reported something, and the newspaper mentioned our Huanyu Investment Company by name. The article said that our Huanyu Investment Company has been secretly absorbing shares of the Hong Kong Land Group with the purpose of acquiring this Hong Kong real estate giant. In other words, our affairs have been leaked, and I have no idea where the leak came from at the moment." Su Zhixue replied.

"Hong Kong Times" was the newspaper that falsely accused Fortress Electrical Company, a subsidiary of Hong Kong Electric Group.

After Niu Bijian took the initiative to admit his mistake and apologize on TV, the Hong Kong Times fell out of the list of the top ten newspapers in Hong Kong due to fake news, and its sales volume is said to have dropped significantly.

Unexpectedly, it popped up again this time.

It seems that their sales have plummeted and they are unwilling to accept this.

Since the last incident, even Lin Haoran no longer subscribed to the Hong Kong Times.

Before that, this newspaper was among the ones he read every day.

Obviously, the news of Huanyu Investment Company's acquisition of the Jardine Matheson Group was leaked. There must be a traitor in Huanyu Investment Company.

Although a confidentiality agreement has been signed, no one can guarantee that everyone can truly keep it confidential.

After all, if there is enough benefit, leakage is normal.

Moreover, with so many employees in Huanyu Investment Company nowadays, some of them will certainly take chances and think that even if they leak the information, it will be impossible to detect it.

Fortunately, whether it is the acquisition project team of the Hutchison Whampoa Group or the acquisition project team of Jardine Matheson, in order to prevent leaks, each person is responsible for different work. Even if it is leaked, the other party only knows that Universal Investment Company is absorbing the shares of the Hutchison Whampoa Group. Only Su Zhixue knows how many shares it owns.

"Okay, I get it. Don't panic. With the shares we hold now, even if we take over the Jardine Matheson Group, there is more than 90% chance of success." Lin Haoran said with a smile.

Today, Universal Investment Company holds more than 29% of the shares of the Hong Kong Land Development. Together with the 6% of shares held by Hong Kong Electric Company Limited, it means that Lin Haoran actually controls more than 35% of the shares of the Hong Kong Land Development.

According to his previous investigation, those British financial groups and Jardine Matheson together only held about 30% of the shares of the Hong Kong Land Group.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are things he has not investigated.

It is also because of this that Lin Haoran has not announced the acquisition of controlling stake in the Jardine Matheson Group in order to increase his certainty.

But now, what he didn't expect was that before he even planned to announce it, someone had already taken the initiative to help him announce it.

"Boss, what are your plans next? The stock of the Swire Properties should be very popular today." Su Zhixue asked.

"How many shares of the Jardine Matheson Group does our Huanyu Investment Company currently hold?" Lin Haoran asked.

"As of yesterday's market close, we already held 29.36% of the shares of the Hong Kong Land Development," Su Zhixue reported.

"Then after the stock market opens, try to buy as much as possible. Scan all the stocks on the market and buy as many as you can. You go and make the arrangements. I'll be at the company in a while." Lin Haoran said directly.

Now that it has been exposed, there is no need to hide it any longer.

It seems that the fight for the controlling stake in the Jardine Matheson Group will have to be brought forward.

"Weiguo, please go buy me a copy of Hong Kong Times." After hanging up the phone, Lin Haoran said to Li Weiguo.

Li Weidong hasn't come back from Kowloon yet. Since everything has been leaked, there's no point in getting anxious.

"Okay, boss!" Li Weiguo hurriedly left the Lin family villa.

There is a newsstand about a kilometer away, and it doesn’t take long to drive there and buy something.

Five minutes later, Li Weiguo came back with the newspaper.

After receiving the Hong Kong Times, Lin Haoran quickly found the article and read it carefully. (End of this chapter)
