Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 333 334 [Progress]

This is a small-scale snake swallowing a whale case, not as good as the previous case where the Aimi Group attacked the China Gas Company with a market value of 10 billion yuan with a market value of 50 billion yuan.

Today, AMG is just a listed company without any other industries. The asset value of the Star Ferry Company is far less than that of the China Gas Company, but it does not affect Liu Luanxiong's notoriety.

The fact that he dared to challenge powerful families and long-established tycoons is in itself a kind of courage that the citizens of Hong Kong admire very much.

In addition, since there is money to be made, they are naturally willing to follow Liu Luanxiong to "become robbers", legal robbers.

Therefore, it was rumored in the market that any stock that Liu Luanxiong touched would become a hot commodity, and a sharp rise was inevitable.

Liu Luanxiong's fame once surpassed that of new tycoons like Luo Qihong, while upstarts like Luo Xurui have been swept into the trash heap.

Luo Qihong delayed for some time before calling Li Zhaoji to tell him the result. Although the delay was only for psychological comfort, it was also what he had to do and perhaps it played some role.

Sun Hung Kai Securities Office
Feng Jingxi died of cerebral hemorrhage at the beginning of last month. His son Feng Yongxiang became the chairman of the board of directors of Sun Hung Kai Securities. Fortunately, Feng Yongxiang had worked for Sun Hung Kai Securities for a long time and did not make any personnel changes after taking office.

Sun Hung Kai Securities also made a smooth transition at the fastest speed, calming people's hearts and preserving its strength.

"Uncle Ji, how did you provoke a bad guy like Liu Luanxiong?" Feng Yongxiang said something inappropriate.

Li Zhaoji was a little annoyed, but he suppressed it. "Do we need to provoke someone like Liu Luanxiong? Wing On Group and Chuang's Group have no grudges against him, right? They are also being sniped."

Feng Yongxiang snorted, "Well, Uncle Ji is right. Liu Luanxiong is indeed a bad guy. All the listed companies in the market are afraid of this guy, but people like him happen to be guests of honor in banks and financial companies."

Feng Yongxiang seems to have forgotten that Sun Hung Kai Securities once had a bank under its umbrella and that his family was once a leader in the Hong Kong banking industry.

"How confident are you that this will turn out?" Li Zhaoji drank his coffee to wash away the depression in his chest.

Feng Yongxiang put the prepared plan in front of Li Zhaoji. "This is the prepared plan. I have already contacted Bank of East Asia and Hang Seng Bank. They will provide 5 million yuan of anti-takeover funds with an interest rate of 12%."

"The interest rate is not low, can it be lowered a bit?" Li Zhaoji said.

Feng Yongxiang shook his head and said, "Everyone knows about Uncle Ji. Those people have already given face by not taking advantage of the situation. It is unlikely that the interest rate will be lowered. I can go and negotiate again, but the hope is not great."

Li Zhaoji was very clear about the style of those people in the bank and knew that Feng Yongxiang was telling the truth, but this was a small matter and could not delay the anti-takeover work.

"Try your best. Reducing 1% can save millions of interest." Li Zhaoji explained casually.

"Uncle Ji, defeating Liu Luanxiong is not a problem, but your losses are inevitable. You will probably lose 2 to 3 million yuan." Feng Yongxiang looked solemn.

Li Zhaoji paused, feeling a little distressed. "As long as I can keep my position, it doesn't matter if I lose some money."

Feng Yongxiang and Li Zhaoji had dealt with each other many times, and he could see that Li Zhaoji was pretending to be generous, but he obviously had to praise him, "Uncle Ji is generous! He is indeed a tycoon!"

Li Zhaoji continued to look at the plan and did not respond to Feng Yongxiang's words.

“Release it according to the new plan. It would be best if we can finish it in one go.” Li Zhaoji closed the document and sighed.

Feng Yongxiang nodded, but felt that things were not simple. Liu Luanxiong's methods were somewhat different from the previous two times.

Li Zhaoji is known as the stock god, but his insights on acquisitions may not be as good as Feng Yongxiang's, and there is also some gap in his sensitivity.

Dean Securities Investment Company
"As you expected, Li Zhaoji still chose Sun Hung Kai Securities to be his spokesperson." Bai Jinyan held a cup of coffee.

"Feng Jingxi is dead. Feng Yongxiang is a good defender of the city. However, Hong Kong is in turmoil now, and it is difficult for Feng Yongxiang to achieve anything. If he expands his business aggressively, he may be the next Liao Chuangxing family." Luo Qihong smiled coldly.

With Feng Jingxi in charge of Sun Hung Kai Securities, Luo Qihong would still give it some face. But if Feng Yongxiang were in charge, it would become a turtle shell.

It would be fine if you don’t stick your head out, but if you do, you will inevitably be chopped off.

Bai Jinyan said softly, "After all, he is my old employer. Give him some face, or else people will say that I don't appreciate our friendship."

Luo Qihong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to Sun Hung Kai Securities. I'm just analyzing it."

Since Bai Jinyan is going to become Mrs. Luo, he must of course give her face, otherwise it would be no fun if a fire broke out in the backyard.

Cluck! !
There was a knock on the door. Hu Yanni saw Luo Qihong's arms around Bai Jinyan's waist and subconsciously lowered her head.

Luo Qihong looked back and saw that it was Hu Yanni, so he lowered his arm and said, "Come in! What's going on?"

"Mr. Luo, Ms. Bai, Sun Hung Kai Securities has released a new acquisition plan for Henderson Lighting Company." Hu Yanni handed over the document.

Luo Qihong flipped through the documents, handed them to Bai Jinyan a minute later, and said, "Li Zhaoji is going to invest heavily, and Liu Luanxiong is under a lot of pressure."

After Bai Jinyan finished reading, Hu Yanni asked, "Should we sell the 2% of Star Ferry shares we hold after they reach the purchase price?"

Luo Qihong looked at Bai Jinyan, as if asking for Bai Jinyan's opinion.

"Don't be anxious. Liu Luanxiong is not sniping this time. He is holding out the hope of taking over the Star Ferry Company. There should be another round of price increases." Bai Jinyan also looked at Luo Qihong.

"Let's follow Sister Jinyan's advice and continue to pay close attention to the movements of both parties." Luo Qihong said.

"Yes!" Hu Yanni left the office.

"Why are you so confident in Liu Luanxiong?" Bai Jinyan sat next to Luo Qihong and asked with interest.

Luo Qihong smirked and said, "Do you think Liu Luanxiong's bad reputation was created by me? Let me tell you, without me, Liu Luanxiong would have the current reputation."

Bai Jinyan's eyes flickered and asked, "Because Liu Luanxiong is not afraid of bad reputation?" "No, because Liu Luanxiong has innovatively improved the acquisition methods of Wall Street elites. This is not something that anyone can do, and this is a method without any loopholes." Luo Qihong explained.

"If you become Li Zhaoji and Liu Luanxiong snipers you, what will you do?" Bai Jinyan asked.

"I will attack Wei to save Zhao. I will exchange all the shares of Star Ferry for shares of Aigo, and then add capital to acquire Aigo." Luo Qihong said with a laugh.

Upon hearing this, Bai Jinyan's face changed drastically. This move could indeed cut off the source of the problem, and Liu Luanxiong could only quickly take profits and withdraw.

Of course, Liu Luanxiong dared to do this because Luo Qihong was behind the scenes.

"In fact, Liu Luanxiong should not have used the trick of Hutchison Whampoa. If he only used cash to acquire the company, there would be basically no solution." Luo Qihong restrained his smile and his expression became serious.

"What if the acquisition is only done with cash? What would you do?" Bai Jinyan asked again.

"Then we can only pool funds to fight Liu Luanxiong. We can't give up the Star Ferry." Luo Qihong sighed.

Who made Liu Luanxiong commit legal robbery? The winner and loser depends entirely on the funds.

3 days later
A gossip magazine published a piece of news with the headline "Luo Daheng accompanied a woman to appear at the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital", and the subtitle seemed to be "visiting the obstetrics and gynecology department".

The content was accompanied by a large side-face photo. Although he was wearing a mask, he was still recognizable. Combined with the bodyguard Ajun's face showing, it can be almost confirmed that it was Luo Qihong himself.

The subtitle is pure speculation, without any evidence.

In the office, Luo Qihong threw the magazine away with a gloomy face.

"Immediately send a lawyer's letter to this newspaper. I want to discredit them."

Su Qishan was trembling with fear and didn't dare to speak. It was the first time he saw his boss so angry.

But he didn't dare to follow his boss's orders because it was a trap. Suing the newspaper would only make it famous and he would fall into the newspaper's trap.

Moreover, the photo above shows Ajun’s entire face, how could he possibly win?

When Luo Qihong's expression improved a little, Su Qishan respectfully advised, "Boss, a lawsuit will only benefit those gossip magazines. It's better to issue a statement saying that it was caused by the shooting angle."

Luo Qihong calmed down and waved his hand, "Do as you wish."

"Do you want to cooperate with other companies?" Su Qishan asked again.

"No need. Taking it too seriously will only lead to more public opinion. Being more casual may have a miraculous effect."

"Yes!" Su Qishan nodded.

Luo Qihong thought about it and realized that he might be angry because he cared about Guan Jiahui and her son. This didn't seem to be something he couldn't get over.

As the popularity of the Star Ferry Company declined, Luo Qihong's scandal topped the list and became a topic of conversation on the street.

"Can you tell who this woman is?"

"She's wrapped up pretty tightly, but she looks a bit like Luo Daheng's celebrity girlfriend Guan Jiahui."

"She's an actress from the Lucky Stars movie series of Baoxiang Film Company, right? She's really pretty, and her big eyes are the most beautiful."

"Does that mean that Mr. Luo is going to get married soon with a baby?"

De'an Company
The employees below were also talking about it, and most of them were teasing Bai Jinyan, the young boss.

"It's so unfair to Miss Bai. How could Luo Sheng do this?"

"The boss is a rare young tycoon in Hong Kong, so it's not surprising that he has several women."

Bang bang! !
Applause broke out, the whispers began to die down, and the employees looked at each other.

"I know everyone is curious about what's in the magazine, and I don't want to explain anything. I'm just announcing one thing here. Miss Bai is my fiancée, and we will get married soon." Luo Qihong said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, the employees were stunned. As the applause rang out, they finally reacted and started clapping.

"Mr. Luo, can we tell this news to other people?" the baby-faced female employee asked with a smile.

"Of course you can, but don't tell the paparazzi from the magazine. You know, they're really annoying." Luo Qihong smiled even more.

"Mr. Luo, are you afraid of those paparazzi?" Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, the bold female employee began to tease Luo Qihong.

"I'm not afraid, I just find it troublesome." Luo Qihong waved his hand and his expression became casual.

Everyone joked around for a few minutes and then went back to work.

After returning to the office, Luo Qihong closed the door, which was rare.

Bai Jinyan teased, "Aren't you afraid that Miss Guan will find out that you're having a miscarriage?"

"I've already told her that it's settled." The smile on Luo Qihong's face disappeared, and he felt somewhat helpless.

It is not so easy to enjoy the happiness of having many wives, and it will be more troublesome in the future, like King D of Macau.
