Chapter 254: Finding HSBC as a thug
Unlike ordinary shareholders, Li Zhaoji was at the table for dinner. When he saw Chen Fan suppressing the stock price of the gas company, his first reaction was to buy in quickly to increase his shareholding ratio.

This is the content of the collaboration!

The gas company belongs to Li Zhaoji. As for how many shares he will eventually get, that is his own business and Chen Fan has no control over it.

It all depends on one's own ability.

This cooperation also made Li Zhaoji deeply realize how important it is to have a powerful backer. In the past, who would dare to play like this with the British?

How domineering are the British in Hong Kong?

You can take what is given to you, but you cannot take what is not given to you. No matter how much money you have, it is useless because they have several hammers in the political, judicial and banking fields.

If I can't kill you with the hammer, I can at least make you half dead.

Unlike this time, he was so tough. He suppressed when he said he would suppress, and acquired when he said he would acquire. Who would care about the British guy's face? Chen Fan ignored him and went back to Beijing.

It feels so good to be able to do business to this extent!
Inexplicably, I felt that what Chen Fan said was true: Whether we businessmen can be tough outside depends on whether the backers are strong!

"No wonder this guy went back to invest and do charity after making money. It really came in handy at a critical moment. It's time to consider investing in some more projects."

I couldn't help but think of Hu Yingxiang!

Lao Hu is engaged in infrastructure projects with long investment cycles and low returns, but he is really tough. If the British want to deal with him, they have to see the reaction of the mainland first.

While feeling emotional, I quickly asked people to buy the stocks.

The plane landed in Beijing. Chen Fan and the other two came out of the airport. Without any prior notice and no one coming to pick them up, the three of them took a taxi directly home.

Zeng Ali was surprised when he saw them come in: "Didn't they say it would take more than a month?"

"If things go smoothly, I'll come back early."

Chen Fan hugged his wife and asked, "How are you these days? Is the morning sickness serious?"

Zeng Ali shook her head slightly: "It's been better recently. The elders all said that morning sickness only lasts for more than a month and it will be fine after it passes."

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that everything is fine. I should be able to stay a few more days this time. I will go to Hong Kong again after a while and try to resolve the matter before the New Year."

Chinese New Year is on February 2th!
Zeng Ali said, "After this month, I will be three months pregnant. After I feel more stable, I plan to go over there and take care of the company's affairs."

“Let them come over and handle it at home.”

Chen Fan shook his head. It was his first child, so for safety's sake, he should not run around. "Our family is being watched in Hong Kong, so it's best not to go there during this period of time. Anyway, Ah Jing is here."

Zeng Ali nodded in agreement, saying that children were more important.

Lululemon's model is very mature. Unless there is a major incident, they can just work over the phone. With Zeng Ajing watching over it, there will be no trouble.

Even in the current situation, Zeng Ajing will have to be busy for a while. The wedding originally planned to be after the Chinese New Year will probably have to be postponed again. The details will have to be discussed after the Chinese New Year.

"Mom, look at the presents I brought you."

Miss Zhao took out a set of skin care products from her suitcase as if she was presenting a treasure: "This is something we made at home, and the effect is better than those on the market."

Guan Yuemei picked it up and took a look: "Is this what you made? The name is good, Divine Concubine, Essence, what is it used for?"

Repair, moisturize, anti-aging and improve skin texture!

Miss Zhao is good at coaxing people. She can introduce her own products one by one and talk about them in great detail.

Chen Min was also tempted when she heard this: "Yuanyuan, didn't you bring me a set?"

Miss Zhao quickly took out a set from her suitcase: "I can forget anyone, but I dare not forget you. But sister, you are still breastfeeding, so you should not use it if you can."

Chen Min accepted it with a smile: "I heard you say it's amazing, how much is this set for?"

Miss Zhao chuckled and said proudly, "Different product combinations and large and small bottles have different prices. For example, this set is priced at 6000 Hong Kong dollars, and there is no discount."

"How much?" Chen Min shouted in surprise.

“6000 Hong Kong dollars!”

"Good fellow, you and Ali are both black-hearted. You sold a pair of yoga pants for 1,000 yuan, and a few bottles of water for 6,000 yuan."

Miss Zhao had a dark face and took Chen Min's arm in hers and said coquettishly, "Sister, we are a family."

"I'm just saying this because we're a family. Selling a few bottles of water for 6,000 yuan is just a rip-off?" "Chen Fan said, our family doesn't rip off the poor!"

"..."Chen Min didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It is indeed not cheating the poor. If it were in the mainland, the average person’s monthly income would only be tens or hundreds of yuan. How many people could afford it?
After teaching her mother-in-law how to use them, Miss Zhao took a few sets of skin care products back to the next yard. As expected, she received a few more comments: You have a black heart.

He Yuegui, the biological mother, was even more rude: "You are really evil-hearted. If you put this thing in Beijing, customers will either sue you for speculation or smash your store."

"Your brother-in-law set the price!" Miss Zhao said angrily.

He Yuegui was stunned for a moment: "That's fine, Xiaofan is capable, it's right to listen to him."

Miss Zhao gritted her teeth, what kind of person is he!
Fearing a beating, Miss Zhao did not dare to refute, and could only teach me to use it once. After I used it, I said, "It's expensive for a reason. My skin feels much more hydrated."

"I won't say I'm black-hearted this time!"

He Yuegui glared at her daughter and sent her away: "It's all my son-in-law's fault. You look so lazy, you're just here to make up for the trouble."

Miss Zhao was so angry that she jumped up and down, and when she got home she took it out on Chen Fan, saying, "What kind of person is this? The son-in-law is a treasure, but the daughter is just a weed?"
The days pass by while we are having fun!
However, the situation in Hong Kong was turbulent, and the stock market was suppressed across the board, especially the several companies that Chen Fan had his eyes on, which were falling almost every day.

The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for British capital!
If British capital does not leave, you can buy at a low price and keep the funds in Hong Kong.

This is almost impossible to achieve. Capital repatriation is an inevitable choice. Privatization urgently requires a large amount of capital repatriation. The middle class in Britain is so poor that they have to wipe their butts with newspapers.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the British devils can't hold on any longer, and it is almost inevitable that these companies will fall into Chen Fan's hands. Once Chen Fan delists, the stocks will continue to fall.

It was mid-January 85!
The British finally couldn't sit still anymore and had to make concessions reluctantly. After getting enough benefits, the higher-ups asked Sun Shaojie to call Chen Fan and ask him to go to Hong Kong for negotiations.

Chen Fan rushed over without stopping, and went to HSBC to find Shen Bi before the negotiation: "Mr. Shen, long time no see, how are you these days?"

Mr. Shen smiled bitterly: "Mr. Chen, I have to admit that your methods are indeed sharp. This time we are convinced of our defeat."

"Mr. Shen, it's a win-win situation for both of us."

Chen Fan smiled and sat down, took out a cigarette and handed it over: "Acquiring multiple companies at the same time is also a troublesome matter. I want to let you HSBC handle it."

"Don't you have your own investment company?" Mr. Shen was surprised and frowned slightly.

HSBC has taken on many similar acquisitions, and the fees are not cheap, generally charging between 1-3%. For an acquisition like this one, the handling fee is a huge sum.

"Professional matters should be left to professionals. My investment company has some capabilities in finance, but it is beyond our capabilities when it comes to real industries."

The fact is, of course, not so.

Although the British devils have backed down, there are still many disagreements when it comes to the details of the company's acquisition. If someone holds on to the shares and refuses to let go, Chen Fan may not be able to get what he wants.

HSBC is a Tyrannosaurus Rex in Hong Kong!

By giving up some of the profits, bringing in HSBC, or even letting HSBC act as a thug, many problems, or even most of the problems, can be solved during the acquisition process.

If they really run into someone who is blind, the two sides can join forces to kill a large group of people.

After getting benefits, HSBC will do its best. The more shares they acquire, the more commission they will get. No one can resist money.

The overall situation has been decided. Even though Shen Daban knew Chen Fan's intentions and wanted to be Chen Fan's thug, he still wanted to seek benefits for HSBC: "Mr. Chen, do you still count the loan you promised to us?"

Chen Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm a trustworthy person. All the funds for the acquisition of the company will be borrowed from HSBC, but you have to give me some preferential interest rates."

"Of course this is no problem!"

Mr. Shen nodded slightly and started negotiating with Chen Fan on the issue of handling fees and interest rates, and finally came up with an amount that both parties could accept.

After talking about these, the next thing is the business issues.

Mr. Shen wanted to know Chen Fan's bottom line. Although Chen Fan repeatedly emphasized that he wanted it all and wanted 100% control, both parties knew that this was impossible.

Except for telecommunications companies, the rest are listed companies with extremely complex equity structures. Some shares are in non-British hands and may not give face to Britain.

Like American and squid ones!

He used to be Yinglun’s son, and now he is Yinglun’s father. He is already the opposite of Tiangang!
