In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire
Chapter 477 It’s too late to regret now!
The employees of Jardine Securities also successfully signed a new contract with the Jardine Matheson Group.
After the contract was signed, it meant that they had completely given up their status as employees of Jardine Securities.
This time, Jardine Securities can be considered temporarily bankrupt.
A few days ago, Jardine Securities was still the leader in Hong Kong's securities industry.
So, they have many businesses under their umbrella.
Now, out of thousands of core employees, more than nine hundred have left, leaving less than a hundred. How can they cope with so much business?
If Jardine Securities is unable to handle these businesses, they will be faced with numerous accountability and even compensation.
Today is Saturday, and the former employees of Jardine Securities who signed the contract with the Jardine Matheson Group are all resting.
And they basically signed the contracts behind the back of Jardine Securities.
Therefore, after signing the contract with the Jardine Matheson Group, Jardine Matheson was not even aware of the matter.
Jardine Matheson held a press conference in an attempt to minimize the impact.
However, it had no effect. The reporters were no longer afraid of the now declining Jardine Matheson & Co. They dared to say anything and report anything.
So, this weekend's newspapers, the various reports are very exciting.
What is most surprising is that, as one of the important shareholders of Jardine Matheson, holding 6% of Jardine Matheson's shares, Bank of Hong Kong did not take any action to help Jardine Matheson.
On Sunday, another blockbuster news broke out: the top management of Jardine Matheson had been caught up in a fierce infighting.
The management team centered around the Keswick family is seeing their power gradually weakened because of the Jardine Matheson Securities incident.
The Rothschild family seems to be eyeing the opportunity to seize controlling stake in the company.
Although the Keswick family increased its holdings of a large number of shares in time when it acquired Lin Haoran’s shares last time, thus barely maintaining its advantage, the situation is still precarious.
Of course, these are just rumors circulating, and their authenticity needs to be further confirmed.
However, from this incident, it is not difficult to see that the current situation of the Keswick family is indeed quite difficult.
In a blink of an eye, the time came to July 1th.
Today is Monday,
Lin Haoran got up early, had a simple breakfast, and went out at around eight o'clock.
The destination is the 38th floor of Kangle Building.
After arriving, Lin Haoran found that the Kangle Building was already bustling with activity.
On weekdays, there are nearly 10,000 people busy moving around here. They are either employees of Jardine Matheson or office workers of various companies that rent offices here.
Now, with the addition of more than 900 elites who have jumped from Jardine Securities and hundreds of talents who have moved in from Universal Investment Company, the staff size of this building has instantly increased by nearly one-tenth, adding a bit of vitality and vigor.
As soon as he opened the elevator, Lin Haoran saw a reception desk with the words "Galaxy Securities Company" in gold foil on it.
"boss."
"Good morning, boss!"
"Morning, boss!"
"Good morning, boss!"
……
As soon as he walked out of the elevator, Lin Haoran heard various greetings.
He also smiled and nodded in response.
Ma Shimin, Allen and others who heard the sound also came out of the office.
"How are the preparations going?" Lin Haoran asked with a smile.
"Boss, everything is ready. We'll start work at nine o'clock in the morning. In addition, I have also invited TVB and Oriental Daily to come and report on the opening of our company." Ma Shimin replied, pointing to several reporters carrying cameras and microphones not far away.
Lin Haoran turned his head and saw that they were indeed reporters from TVB and Oriental Daily.
Since they were all family, Lin Haoran nodded slightly at them.
What a company wants is reputation.
What's the point of doing business if no one knows you?
Therefore, media coverage is still very necessary.
The new Galaxy Securities Company can be called a new company or a renamed company of Huanyu Investment Company. In fact, there is not much difference.
"Boss, you will go up and give a speech later. Is that a problem?" Ma Shimin said while pointing to a podium that had been set up in the hall with a microphone on it.
"Okay, then I'll go up and say a few words later!" Lin Haoran nodded and did not refuse.
The importance of the financial industry in Hong Kong will only increase, so the future of Galaxy Securities is still promising.
Nowadays, the financial industry has actually become a pillar industry in Hong Kong. Otherwise, Hong Kong would not have attracted so many financial companies.
If Galaxy Securities can become the number one in the securities industry in the future, it can also become a separate giant company.
As the nine o'clock bell rang on time, everyone was standing in the hall.
Lin Haoran walked to the microphone, and the whole hall suddenly became quiet.
In addition to respect, everyone now feels more awe towards Lin Haoran.
After all, Lin Haoran's move this time caused great damage to Jardine Matheson and caused heavy losses!
They can't help but feel awe towards such a boss.
Lin Haoran cleared his throat, spoke into the microphone, and began his speech.
“Good morning, colleagues and guests! Today is a day worth remembering, because our Galaxy Securities Company officially set sail here.
I would like to thank every colleague who has joined our family from Jardine Securities. Your arrival has injected new vitality into Galaxy.
At the same time, I would also like to thank my colleagues at Huanyu Investment Company. It is your hard work and persistence that have laid a solid foundation for Galaxy.
Finally, I hope that our Galaxy Securities will get better and better, and everyone’s income will get higher and higher. Thank you all!”
Suddenly, there was a warm applause at the scene, which lasted for more than a minute before gradually quieting down.
While Galaxy Securities was busily embarking on a new journey, a different scene was unfolding at Jardine Securities in Jardine House a few hundred meters away.
At this moment, the office of Jardine Securities was completely quiet, without any trace of the bustle of the past.
As the big brother of Hong Kong's securities industry, Jardine Securities has thousands of employees, including nearly a thousand working in the headquarters office.
But at this moment, there are less than 150 people in such a large office.
Excluding clerks, miscellaneous employees, and middle and senior management, there are less than 80 core employees.
At this moment, many bigwigs from Jardine Matheson came to the scene, including Henry Keswick and Simon Keswick.
When they saw the state of the office, their faces darkened.
"What's going on? Aren't there only more than 700 people who changed jobs? Where are the others?" Henry Keswick roared.
"Mr. Henry, we don't know what's going on. We contacted all the employees who didn't change jobs on Friday night and promised to increase their wages. Everyone agreed on the phone, but who knew that these were the only ones who came to work today!" Martin, general manager of Jardine Securities, also looked puzzled.
"Why don't you call and ask?" Henry continued to roar.
"I've already asked HR to make the call." Martin said aggrievedly.
At this moment, they don’t know that almost all the employees in their company have been poached.
Originally, they thought that with more than 200 core employees left, and by recruiting a group of external staff through headhunters, they might be able to help Jardine Securities get through this difficult time.
But now it seems that the situation is much worse than they imagined.
Martin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and was extremely anxious.
He was naturally very clear that if the crisis of Jardine Securities was not handled properly, it might lead to devastating consequences.
After a while, the head of the human resources department came running over and reported with a pale face: "Mr. Henry, Mr. Simon, Mr. Martin, we contacted the families of those employees who didn't come, and they said... they said they had found new jobs, and the treatment was much better than ours, so... so they didn't come."
"What!" Henry Keswick widened his eyes, unable to believe his ears.
He slammed the table in anger. "These ungrateful guys, haven't we at Jardine Matheson been good enough to them? How could they betray us so easily!"
Simon Keswick also had a gloomy face. This incident was no longer as simple as an employee jumping ship. There must be someone behind the scenes manipulating it, with the purpose of bringing down Jardine Securities and then undermining the overall strength of Jardine Matheson.
Without even having to think about it, they knew where these people were going to jump to.
Apart from the Jardine Matheson Group, who else would be willing to pay a higher price to poach their employees?
"Have they switched to the Jardine Matheson Group?" Simon Keswick asked in a deep voice.
"Yes... yes, I made several phone calls, and their family members said that they had switched to the Jardine Matheson Group and had started working there this morning." The head of the Human Resources Department continued to report stutteringly.
As a middle-level manager of a subsidiary company, he was naturally extremely nervous when faced with the boss of Jardine Matheson.
The Jardine Matheson executives present looked even gloomier after hearing what the head of the human resources department said.
Cruel, this method is really too cruel! The other party really doesn't leave them any chance to survive!
In recent days, competition within Jardine Matheson has become increasingly fierce because of these issues, and the Keswick family has struggled to barely maintain their position as the head.
Simon and Henry Keswick were both exhausted and tired.
If this continues, how can Jardine Securities survive?
At this moment, a feeling of regret suddenly surged in Henry Keswick's heart.
I shouldn't have thought about taking revenge on Lin Haoran in the first place.
If they hadn't gone to the media to frame Lin Haoran, this situation wouldn't have happened at Jardine Matheson Securities, right?
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world. It is too late to regret now. (End of this chapter)
